After carefully questioning Liu Bolun, Du Chengfeng knew what had happened during the ten days he was in seclusion.
On the first day of his seclusion, Qian Jin died. It's hard not to think about this. It's not that the Governor's Mansion didn't want to come over to ask for an explanation, but because of Du Chengfeng's terrifying force, they didn't dare to There was a big fuss, so after thinking about it, the chief clerk of Yizhou City could only send someone over, and planned to ask the Jibei refugees at the old barracks first to see what this meant.
They say they are asking these refugees, but in fact they are asking these refugees to ask Du Chengfeng for help. This can be considered a roundabout way, and everyone retains some of the most basic dignity.
But how could the refugees in Jibei understand this?
Suddenly someone came and asked if the governor was dead. Are you going to rebel? The folks in Jibei were also confused.
Is it really going to be the opposite?
It doesn’t seem like it’s reached that level yet, right? Although they are currently homeless and life is a bit tight, everyone has settled down now, and naturally they all have a bright future. As for Du Chengfeng, they are all familiar with it, and they all know Du Chengfeng. A strong man is just like them, he just wants to live life. It is impossible for such a person to work more, and you still expect him to rebel?
But no matter what, the governor of Yizhou was indeed dead. A pile of corpses were shoveled into the coffin and the flowing water mat was placed.
As a result, the villagers who had finished their meal could only find Old Man Yang and Liu Bolun. These two people were the only two smart people in the team. One was an elder of a wealthy family, and the other was a retired official. This matter must be seen more thoroughly - of course, for such a big matter, you must first go to Old Man Yang, who is Jibei's own person.
However, when the villagers found Old Man Yang, they found that the calm old man's reaction was even more intense than theirs.
"So that's it, that's it... No wonder this strong man came to the Yang Family Fort. It turns out that the ancestor has appeared. The ancestor wants my Yang family to do it all over again! Follow the dragon again!"
While trembling, Old Man Yang ran out to summon the Yang family disciples to prepare to talk about something important.
This was the first time that the villagers saw someone rolling the wheelchair so fast that it seemed like it was flying on the ground. They couldn't see the wheels clearly.
Obviously, although he didn't know the reason, Old Man Yang was already screaming and stunned.
So the villagers could only settle for the next best thing and come over and ask Liu Bolun, a Yanzhou native, what he thought.
Fortunately, although Liu Bolun was a drunkard, he was not stunned. Even when he was drunk, he still answered them in a very organized manner.
"I don't know much about what you are talking about, but you guys don't go over to Du Chengfeng's side yet... This is for your own good. After all, his side is indeed a bit dangerous these days."
This is the truth, and it is also the reason why Du Chengfeng needs to find a venue. Du Chengfeng was pointed out by Liu Bolun before, and after realizing that when he sharpened his knife, he was the so-called "mysterious and mysterious", he began to retreat and ponder this thing. , although this kind of "mysterious and mysterious" state is a good thing for oneself, it may not be good for others.
For example, in the simplest example, if Du Chengfeng accidentally activates the flaming blade and stabs it out from a distance of five feet, it will be a major safety accident if anything is swept away.
Therefore, for the sake of the safety of these villagers, even if Liu Bolun was drunk, he remembered not to let others get close to him rashly.
"He's studying the true meaning of strength."
Considering that the villagers did not know what evil spirit was, nor what was mysterious and mysterious, Liu Bolun used a euphemism at that time.
"He is thinking about where his strength comes from. Give him some time, okay?"
But who would have thought that as soon as this statement came out, the villagers were in an uproar.
The villagers don't understand the true meaning of power, but when it comes to who is the most powerful, they all know it - as we all know, in the whole world, the most powerful person is of course the King of the Kingdom. Of course, they had never seen whether the emperor could fight, but at least they knew that the emperor could kill at least one villager with just one word.
This is undoubtedly a manifestation of power, and the emperor is definitely the most powerful.
As for the true meaning of power... isn't this the essence of being an emperor?
With this preconceived idea, it is easy to explain where the power behind comes from. It is nothing more than how to become an emperor and where to start. Obviously, if you want to be an emperor at any time, pull the flag. Rebellion is always the first step.
If you think about it this way, Qian Jin's death will become normal.
Right, all right.
Even if Liu Bolun, who had sobered up from the drunkenness, realized something was wrong and wanted to make some remediation, it was already too late.
"I understand what you mean! We understand it completely!"
No matter how Liu Bolun presented the facts and made sense, the folks in Jibei no longer believed him. After all, they felt that they had understood the cleverness in Mr. Liu's words and found the real correct answer.
In their view, Liu Bolun's efforts to make amends seemed more like a reminder to them to act in secret and not to make any noise.
To do big things, you must be a little secretive. They have all heard it in the storybook. Since Mr. Liu kindly mentioned it, they will naturally listen to it - if according to the storybook, they are rebels, then This knowledgeable Mr. Liu is also their dog-headed military advisor.
Of course, not everyone is willing to be a rebel, and most people are actually not very happy to do this.
But do they still have a choice?
These folks from Jibei are just ignorant, but they are definitely not stupid. From Jibei to Yizhou, they have long been tied to Du Chengfeng - if Du Chengfeng's uprising fails, They will definitely be liquidated together. After all, in the eyes of the outside world, they, the remaining refugees in Jibei, are one.
If they don't follow Juyi, Du Chengfeng will be defeated, and they will die. If they follow Juyi, they will die in battle, but as old man Yang said, defeating them is the merit of following the dragon.
"Then the answer becomes obvious, they choose to do it with you."
While saying this, Liu Bolun picked up a hoof, held it and gnawed it.
"I know what you are going to say, but this is really not my problem... It was only later that I figured out that instead of asking for an answer, they need someone to help them accept the reality."
Saying this, Liu Bolun pointed to the table of dishes in front of him.
"The reality is this. Qian Jin has been buried. The truth is no longer important. Regardless of whether you kill Qian Jin or not, the court is ready to use troops to reason with you... unless you can make Qian Jin alive."
"this……"
Du Chengfeng was speechless for a long time.
It seems like it’s not impossible?
After all, there is still such nonsense in this world as "strong will can change reality". In other words, he may really be able to find a way to resurrect people - but obviously, so far, he has not listened. It is said that there is anyone who can really resurrect the dead, and in those legends and rumors, there has never been such a person.
What's more, Qian Jin's death was a bit too abstract. All the bones in his body were smashed, and the whole body was beaten into a pulp. Even the best doctor probably wouldn't be able to piece together such a pile of stuff. .
How much willpower is needed to turn such a pile of things into a living Qian Jin?
Du Chengfeng didn't know, he only knew that he shouldn't be able to do it.
After all, he himself has undergone various tests in the past ten days. You must know that he is very worried that because of Liu Bolun's point, his ability will fail on the spot - after all, this so-called "mysterious and mysterious", In Du Chengfeng's opinion, it's just like that magic trick. Once someone tells him that it's broken, he doesn't believe it anymore. Can this thing still work?
As for the results of the test...
It can indeed be done.
After all, these are his own abilities, and they have even been verified in battle and life. Wanting to use them is as natural as eating and drinking - does anyone doubt whether he can eat and drink?
But on the other hand, there are other more outrageous things that he can't do, such as resurrecting the dead. He absolutely cannot handle this kind of thing. After all, he doesn't believe that the dead can be resurrected from the bottom of his heart.
However, the problem is stuck here. Unless Qian Jin can be resurrected, even if everyone in the Governor's Mansion can confirm that he has not been there that day, the soldiers and horses of the Nanchen court will not believe it.
Just like Liu Bolun said, the truth is no longer important. The troops of the Nanchen court are not here to investigate the case, they are just here to quell the rebellion.
The truth may be needed to investigate a case, but location is all that is needed to counter a rebellion.
"Oh no, who did I offend?"
Du Chengfeng suddenly felt confused.
If you want to say that he really did something, such as killing Qi Jinshan, then he admits it, but now he has clearly done nothing, and he can be blamed on his head. This makes no sense, it really makes no sense. .
"Since it doesn't make sense, then we can only make sense."
Saying this, Du Chengfeng clenched his fists.
"As long as I impress them with my sincerity, they should be able to understand me."
"That's true."
Liu Bolun, who was chewing Sixi meatballs, nodded repeatedly.
"So how are you going to fight?"
"With Euphorbia...no, I mean, with my sincerity."
Du Chengfeng put back the spurge he had just picked up.
"I mean, as long as I speak well and explain things clearly, they will definitely understand me, right?"
"Theoretically...that's it."
Hearing what Du Chengfeng said, Liu Bolun was suddenly stunned.
Not only in theory, but also in practice it seems that it should be like this. Explain things clearly and make decisions based on the truth. This is what Chen should do. He also taught this when he was studying the sages in Taixue - so When did he start to feel that the truth was no longer important?
"So... did you kill him or not?"
"I really didn't kill him."
Du Chengfeng told the truth.
"You saw that I was in seclusion. I haven't gone out these days, and it's not like you haven't seen me do it. If it were me, the body would only be split in half, and it would be burned to ashes if it was held up to the sky."
"This...hey."
With a sigh, Liu Bolun continued to pick up the wine jar and drink heavily.
However, no matter how drunk Liu Bolun was, the imperial army still arrived as scheduled.
Facing the rebellion in Yizhou, only three people were sent from the court.
