Chapter 3176 The beginning and end of killing Chu【10】

 Having just finished speaking, he asked uncertainly: "Are you running out of time? Can you clarify all the truth before tomorrow afternoon?"

Wei Xiao stared at Gu Jinan and the others and said in a deep voice: "There is no room for error when it comes to announcing the truth. Once the imperial edict is issued, there will be no room for change. You must think clearly before replying!"

 Otherwise, convening a court meeting in a hurry without giving any convincing truth will only anger the people who came to listen, and once again damage the little remaining prestige of the Wei Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment." Mr. Feng said, asking Gu Jinan, Mr. Ouyang, Mr. Zheng, Wu Changzhen and others to look at a book together.

 This booklet contains detailed information on the causes, processes, and truth of Ning Ji's disaster and Chu's death.

After a full quarter of an hour, they nodded and said to Wei Xiao with certainty: "The evidence now is enough to explain to the people. Your Majesty, please feel free to issue the decree."

but…

Mr. Feng: "It's too late in the afternoon. I'm afraid there won't be enough time... Let's advance the time to tomorrow morning. At that time, the captured soldiers, Dongqing's dead soldiers, and Ning Ji's rebels will be paraded through the streets so that the people can see them with their own eyes. Only after these witnesses reveal the truth will the people believe the imperial court from the bottom of their hearts."

Gu Jinan agreed very much: "Master Shangshu is right, seeing is believing is a powerful weapon to resolve doubts!"

Ouyang Hu, Wu Changzhen and others all nodded in agreement.

When Wei Xiao saw this, he felt much calmer and ordered Ji Shengnong: "Draw up a decree..."

"Yes." Ji Shengnong took a pen and wrote down what Wei Xiao said. After sorting out the words, he wrote an imperial edict and handed it to Wei Xiao for reading.

Wei Xiao looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and shouted outside: "Jin Chong, lead the Imperial Guard to declare the decree immediately."

He then looked at Xu Chongfeng who was still kneeling, frowned and said: "Get up quickly and go help together. Remember to remind the people not to forget to save people."

"Hey, hey, I obey the order." Xu Chongfeng stood up quickly as if he had been pardoned, and slipped out of No. 4 West Office like a thief. Wei Xiao wanted to beat him.

There is no way, Xu Chongfeng is timid, and there are big people inside, and they are talking about confidential matters. He doesn't want to get involved at all... He knows too many important things, and it is easy for him to live long enough to retire and return home.

 After Yuan Zhi ordered his troops and horses, he and Yuan Zhi left the imperial city together.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

As soon as they left the Imperial City Gate, the Royal Forest Army shouted: "His Majesty's decree is to convene a grand meeting at the Imperial City Gate tomorrow at 10:00. All the people can come to hear the truth. At that time, the Rong bandits, Dongqing Xizuo, and Ning bandits will be escorted and paraded through the streets. Show it to the public!”

He shouted all the way, and everyone who heard it was very excited.

 But there were still those who didn't believe it and rushed out to block the road at the risk of their lives, asking: "Are you telling the truth? Isn't it because the foolish king is putting on a show to deceive us in order to keep the throne?!"

Xu Chongfeng hurriedly dismounted and walked over quickly: "Fellow fellow, what you said is so unpleasant. What do you think His Majesty is putting on a show to deceive you? It's okay. The Rong thief, Dongqing Xizuo, and Ning thief were all caught alive. , it will be taken out for everyone to see tomorrow at exactly the same moment, how could it possibly be faked?"

He called out to Yuan Zhi again: "Deputy Commander Yuan, hurry up and bring your Majesty's imperial edict to all of you fellow villagers for a look!"

"Here we come." Yuan Zhi hurriedly dismounted, unfolded the imperial edict, and handed it to the sufferers who blocked the road. He was afraid that they were illiterate, so he read it to them once, and finally pointed to the place where the jade seal was and said: "This is the imperial seal of the country. "

Xu Chongfeng also told how Wei Xiao, Gu Jinan, Mr. Feng, and Wu Changzhen stayed up all night to interrogate the traitors, and only then did they get the truth: "Your Majesty knows that everyone is anxious to know the truth, and is risking his life to interrogate those traitors. .”

After talking about Wei Xiao and the others' difficulties, he took out a few flour pancakes, broke them and distributed them to the sufferers who blocked the road: "Your Majesty rewarded me with this. I haven't finished it yet. You must be hungry too. Please eat some." ...When you are full, you will have the strength to smash those craftsmen and traitors tomorrow and bring bad luck to your family!"

After hearing this, the victims looked at the cakes and couldn't help crying: "Thank you, sir, for thinking of us... We have to eat until tomorrow, so that we can settle accounts with those traitors!"

 It means to take the bread and eat it among them. "That's right. Come, drink some water, the pancakes are dry and easy to choke on." Xu Chongfeng was worthy of being a county magistrate for many years. He was very capable at appeasing the people, and Yuan Zhi was stunned.

Xu Chongfeng added: "The Imperial City Avenue has been opened. You can go and get a good seat first, but don't mess around, otherwise..."

Xu Chongfeng did not finish his words, but changed his words: "I still have to dig out the ruins to save people, so I need to take a step first."

These words were well said, making the victims feel ashamed, and finally gave Xu Chongfeng a promise: "Don't worry, sir, your Majesty has given us face, and we will wait for your Majesty to reveal the truth honestly."

"Hey, that's right. The harmony between the ruler and the people is a sign of prosperity." Xu Chongfeng got on his horse and left with Yuan Zhi and the others.

Feeling that Yuan Zhi was too dull and unable to appease the people, he ran with them for a while, and after appeasing several groups of people who did not believe in the imperial edict, he separated from Yuan Zhi and went back to rescue people.

 …

“His Majesty has decreed that a grand meeting at the Imperial City Gate will be held tomorrow at six o’clock. All the people can come and listen to the truth. At that time, the army thieves, Dongqing Xizuo, and Ning thieves will be escorted and paraded through the streets!”

Yuan Zhi led the Imperial Guards throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, shouting until midnight to ensure that everyone could hear the imperial edict before going back to resume their duties.

Since the imperial edict was promulgated, people have been going to the Imperial City Avenue. By the time Yuan Zhi and others returned to the Imperial City, the entire Imperial City Avenue was already full of people.

However, because Wei Xiao was willing to tell the people the truth, everyone was less resentful and took the initiative to make way for the ministers and generals to pass through.

 After returning to the imperial city, Yuan Zhi reported the matter to Wei Xiao.

After hearing this, Wei Xiao was very happy and felt a little more at ease... After this difficulty, even though Wei Xiao was as strong as he was, he was also frightened.

He looked at the ministers and generals present and said: "Everyone, the people are still willing to believe in us, so no matter what, we must run the imperial city gate meeting well and not let down the people's trust!"

"Yes." Mr. Feng and the others responded. Taking the confession given by Ji Yuanhong, they continued to light up the lamp and sort out this complex old case involving the three dynasties of Dafeng, Dachu and David, as well as Dayong, Dongqing and other countries.

 …

They were struggling to survive, but Gu Jinli had already returned to No. 6 East Station, taking the children to sleep... Maybe he was too tired. People were coming and going everywhere in the Imperial City Tower, and Qiangqiang even cried twice during the night. , but she didn’t wake up.

 Dong dong dong!

 Dong dong dong!

At Chenzheng, on the Imperial City Tower, drums from all directions sounded in unison, indicating that the imperial court meeting at the Imperial City Gate was about to begin.

Everyone was very excited, and the big wolf and the two wolves even ran to watch the soldiers beat the drums.

After looking at it for more than a quarter of an hour, I remembered Gu Jinli and ran back to East No. 6 to call her.

Erlang: "Mother, mother, wake up, we are going to take the bad guys to the streets!"

Big Wolf: “Mom, wake up, I’m going to pick up my aunt.”

But Gu Jinli was too tired. Although he heard the voices of the cubs, his body continued to fall asleep.

Seeing that he couldn't wake her up, Erlang thought for a while, lay down next to her ear, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Mom, money has dropped. Get up and pick it up!"

Hiss, Gu Jinli's eardrums were about to burst. He sat up and looked around blankly for a while, then grabbed Erlang and pulled his ears: "Qin Zheng, are you looking for a beating?!"
