When Fugai greeted Wu Sheng in the hall, Wu Sheng met Wu Yuan. Fugai didn't say anything at the time, so Wu Sheng pretended not to know. Now he spoke up, and Fugai finally introduced him.
"This is Wu Yuan. He is a guest of the old prince of Chu. After he went to Wu, he sent it to my brother's family. My brother inherited the throne of the King of Wu and worshiped Wu Yuan as a traveler and a senior official. Wu Dafu serves the king with loyalty and relatives. Love, fortitude and forbearance can achieve great things and serve the country well. It is a pity that the King of Chu does not know talents, so he has to be used by me, and the king has high hopes for him."
We haven’t seen each other for many years. Wu Yuan assisted Prince Jian, inquired about politics, experienced military affairs, suffered catastrophes in human relations, and was displaced. His temperament and image were completely different from those back then. But when Wu Sheng looked at him, he still remembered him in the eastern suburbs of Yingdu. The young man Jingyi saw was still immature.
Wu Sheng's memories and trance may be considered rude and disrespectful if applied to others. However, as a disciple of the Academy and a big shot in the spiritual world, Wu Sheng's memories and thoughts may be regarded as a sign of condescending scrutiny by everyone. People think that he is unhappy.
Also, what can a pedestrian or a doctor say without permission? Who gave you permission to interrupt?
Wu Yuan always had a high self-esteem, but he didn't think so, but others thought so. Fu Gai quickly made up for it: "Maybe in two years' time, I, Da Wu, will lose my position as the ruler of Wu to this son, haha. "
Wu Sheng looked at Duke Zhao. Duke Zhao agreed and replied: "The Academy does not care about the political disputes between princes and dynasties. What it cares about is the identity of the assassin. When nobles are assassinated, there are often those wanted by the Academy who are involved. This is also the purpose of the Academy to capture key criminals." One of the ways. For example, Wu Sheng assassinated the Chu official Zhaoshe, Li Dongyang assassinated the Marquis of Cai, Peng Sheng assassinated Lu Gong, and Wei Fushen assassinated the Chu official Fei Hong. Even if they were not wanted at the time, they would often commit major crimes later. .”
The Wu member said: "I see... But the teachings are disappointed. The late emperor was assassinated. We are also tracking down the assassin, but there is no news about the assassin yet."
Even if everyone knew about killing his brother to seize the throne, Gongzi Guang would definitely deny it, so Wu Yuan's answer was also expected.
Wu Yuan and Wu Sheng did not have a life-or-death feud, but he had buried Zhao Shang before, and then encouraged Zhuan Zhu to assassinate Wu Jun. If the history that Wu Sheng knew is still happening in this world - and it seems to be happening now, then Zhuan Zhu will Zhu may have died on the spot while assassinating Wu Jun.
Wu Sheng likes Zhuan Zhu very much, partly because of the personal relationship in Yingdu, and partly because of Jian Jia, so he is very dissatisfied with Wu Yuan's denial. Zhuan Zhu is my friend, and you Wu Yuan only rely on your three inches to be strong. You can coax him into working for you with your tongue. I have to avenge Zhuan Zhu for this revenge!
Not bothering to waste any more words, Wu Sheng opened his mouth and asked: "I heard that you set up an assassination camp when the father of the city was a guest of the prince? I also heard that the wanted criminals Zhuan Zhu and Wei Fushen in the Academy were both assassins. The backbone of the battalion?”
No one expected Wu Sheng to ask such a direct question. Without saying a few words, he pointed the finger directly at Wu Yuan, almost making it clear that he was suspected of being connected with the most wanted criminal in the academy.
The soldiers were shocked, suppressed their uneasiness, and forced themselves to calm down: "Pursuing this statement makes the officers panic. The so-called assassination camp is just a lie, and it is the words of Fei's frame back then. Zhuanzhu did live in the suburbs of Chengfu, But it has nothing to do with the officials. As for the ups and downs of Wei, the officials don’t even know about it, so please follow it carefully."
Wu Sheng said coldly: "Since you knew where Zhuan Zhu was hiding, why didn't you apply to the academy at that time?"
Wu Yuan leaned over and lowered his head and said: "At that time, the city father and the allied forces of Song, Cai, Chen, and Zheng were confronting each other in Chengyang. Behind the coalition forces, there were also Jin troops watching, and the war was about to break out. The member was a guest of the prince and was busy fighting in the academy. I didn't pay attention to the wanted matter, and I didn't know that he was wanted by the academy. Maybe I didn't know that Zhuanzhu was the mentor of the princess of Chu. Since the officials didn't know about his inclusion on the red list, they naturally wouldn't expel or even arrest him without reason."
Wu Sheng stared at Wu Yuan for a long time. Wu Yuan was so weak that he was covered in white hair and sweat without realizing it.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through the minds of the soldiers, and they immediately decided to break the news immediately to prove their innocence: "By the way, I heard a while ago that Zhuanzhu once fought against the Kongtong Mountain bandit Li Fei in Dongyi Yueyue. It should have been last month. Before that, The battle was with Die Wu and he won. Perhaps Fengsheng could use this as a clue to get Zhuan Zhu. Then he would know the details when he asked Zhuan Zhu. On the red list, Zhuan Zhu was ranked thirty-fifth, Die Wu was thirty-four, and Li Fei was thirty-three. , so this officer thinks that the person he wants to fight next time may be the thirty-second Tao Yannv. If he finds Tao Yannv, he can find Zhuanzhu."
Wu Sheng was surprised and pleasantly surprised. Zhuanzhu was not dead? Since he is not dead, maybe he was not the one who assassinated the first king of Wu? Of course, this still needs to be confirmed.
So he said: "I hope so. If you say it's not Zhuanzhu, then who is it?"
Wu Sheng pressed harder and harder, which made the members of the team feel overwhelmed. However, he had been listed by the academy as a suspect of "colluding with the academy and wanted to be a wanted criminal." If he did not give a clear answer, he might still be taken away by Wu Sheng.
It's just that he really couldn't explain it clearly.
Fu Gai was standing by to help him out: "Sun Fengxing, the wanted criminals in the academy all have names and surnames. They are hunted down by people all over the world. As far as I know, the person who assassinated the late emperor has nothing to do with the wanted criminals. We are also tracing them. Once there is one, Report the news to the Academy immediately."
Wu Sheng doesn't have to give face to Wu Yuan, but Fu Gai is the younger brother of the king of Wu and a big figure in power, so Wu Sheng needs to treat him politely. When he comes to smooth things over, Wu Sheng can't press hard anymore, so he can only nod slightly. , no more questions.
When he asked the question just now, the atmosphere was so tense that it was almost suffocating. With this nod, there was a gasp in the hall, which was caused by the banquet guests in the hall.
This is the power of the academy!
Zhao Gong felt a sudden burst of envy and jealousy in his heart. In all his years in Gusu, had he ever been so majestic? You still have to practice your emptiness, and you still have to practice it.
Fu Gai immediately clapped his hands with a smile, the music of silk and bamboo began to play, and a row of Wu girls in wide-sleeved robes came on stage, dancing gracefully in the music to add to the elegance.
After the banquet, Wu Sheng and Duke Zhao returned to the school. Duke Zhao scattered the monks in the school in all directions. Feng Yong, Gao Li, Lie Zhai and others went to one side to inquire about the news about Zhuan Zhu.
As expected, they found out about Zhuan Zhu's appointment to fight the Kongtong Mountain bandit Li Fei. Calculating the time, it should be after Wu Jun was assassinated, which showed that Wu Yuan was not lying.
What is Zhuanzhu doing? Mr. Zhao didn't know about this, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "Maybe he is dissatisfied with the ranking on the red list? Haha, just kidding."
Now that Zhuan Zhu was not dead, Wu Sheng felt much relieved. As long as he got the assassin's name and was sure that he was not a wanted criminal in the academy, he could report back to Yan Boqiao.
But the hardest part was getting the name.
Mr. Zhao had made some insinuations and obtained the confessions of several young masters and guests who were present that day. He also had a rough description of the assassin, but the description was quite rough and he was still wearing a hijab, making it impossible to identify him, so he had no choice but to give up.
The only effect was to finally reassure Wu Sheng that it was really not Zhuanzhu, and Zhuanzhu would not cover his face.
