Chapter 1202: Line up

"This old emperor is so cold. It seems that no matter how much I have contributed, in his eyes, I am just a person who can be used." Wu Fan thought in his heart.

The secret decree of the old emperor also made Wu Fan see the old emperor's true face, and the little good impression he had on the old emperor in his heart also disappeared completely.

However, not having a good impression of the old emperor does not mean that Wu Fan will not carry out this task. On the contrary, Wu Fan, who is now a fledgling, dare not disobey the old emperor's order, otherwise, everything he has in Yanfeng Country will be taken away in an instant. He does not think that the strength he has now can compete with a superpower.

"It's time to do the third ring of the task of helping Wu Ya to avenge her." Wu Fan thought in his heart.

Wu Fan had already completed the first two rings of the serial task of helping Wu Ya to avenge her, but he had not done the third ring because this serial task also had no time limit. However, now Wu Fan plans to complete them together.

"But why is the old emperor so anxious to let me assassinate the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom? Could it be related to the marriage with Tianji Kingdom?" Wu Fan said to himself.

The marriage request proposed by Tianji Kingdom is called a marriage, but it is more like a provocation. The confidence they have in doing so is not only because they are also a superpower, but more importantly, they have been very close to Shuiyue Kingdom recently. If the two countries have really formed an alliance in secret, then Tianji Kingdom does not have to be afraid of Yanfeng Kingdom.

The old emperor is now anxious to let him assassinate Yelu Hongfei, perhaps it is really related to this matter. If Shuiyue Kingdom has its own troubles, it will certainly not invest too many resources and troops to help Tianji Kingdom. In this way, if Tianji Kingdom and Yanfeng Kingdom fight, Yanfeng Kingdom only needs to face Tianji Kingdom, and may not be afraid of the other party.

However, these are just Wu Fan's own guesses. Perhaps the old emperor arranged him to carry out this task just because he remembered that he had told him about this before, or simply wanted to find something for him to do.

"No matter what, the old emperor has already issued a secret decree, so this matter can't be postponed. Besides, the task of helping Wu Ya to take revenge can be completed." Wu Fan said to himself: "What's more, Tianji Kingdom and Shuiyue Kingdom have been so close recently, I guess Shuiyue Kingdom's capital will be very lively, I just want to go and take a look."

The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, so no matter what purpose the old emperor issued this secret decree to him, since the order has been issued, Wu Fan can only complete it, unless he wants to disobey the order, and under the current circumstances, if he disobeys the order, it will be no different from seeking death.

What's more, Wu Fan is also very interested in Shuiyue Kingdom's capital, so he can take this opportunity to take a look.

"However, before leaving, I have to arrange things here properly." Wu Fan thought: "I don't know what's going on with Luo Heming. Judging from the time, those who want to "find a job" should have arrived."

Wu Fan guessed correctly. Those who wanted to "find a job" because of the notice of Wu Mansion had basically arrived at the door of Wu Mansion at this time. Even some people who were angry about Wu Fan's rude arrangement yesterday and did not register have come. They are naturally not here to "find a job", but to watch the fun.

However, when these people arrived at the door of Wu Mansion, they saw Luo Heming standing with the servants of Wu Mansion, just like a person in Wu Mansion, and they couldn't help but be curious and puzzled.

"Luo Heming, you came quite early, and you flattered me well."

"Luo Heming, why are you standing there? Do you really think you are Magistrate Wu's man?"

"Come down! Come down quickly! Luo Heming, what are you doing standing there? Why don't you come down quickly?"

The students who came to the gate of Wu's mansion shouted at Luo Heming, with dissatisfied expressions on their faces.

Faced with the scolding of the crowd, Luo Heming said with an unchanged expression: "I am standing here because of Lord Wu's arrangement."

"Lord Wu's arrangement? How is it possible?"

"That's right, you, who don't even have any fame, can be in the eyes of Lord Wu?"

"If Lord Wu really likes you, it's better not to serve such a person. His vision is really poor."

"Yes, with such an ability to employ people, it's not worth our service at all!"

Luo Heming's words not only did not shut up the students, but made the noise even louder.

However, the people who registered their names yesterday and were going to be interviewed today were quite polite. At least, they only targeted Luo Heming and not Wu Fan.

But those who gave up registration yesterday because of Wu Fan's behavior attacked Wu Fan together, with arrogance and ridicule on their faces.

"If you dare to disrespect the adults again, don't blame me for calling people to arrest you!" The servant of Wu Mansion heard those people mocking Wu Fan and couldn't help but said angrily.

"Why arrest us? We didn't break the law."

"Yes, our ancestors have long stipulated: Don't be punished for speech! Although Lord Wu is a county magistrate, if we only talk about him a few words, we will be arrested and convicted. He is not following the ancestral teachings and does not take the court and the royal family seriously!"

Although Wu Fan's servant wanted to protect Wu Fan, he was no match for these scholars. He could not take advantage of them at all.

"The ancestors of this dynasty did have this rule." At this time, Luo Heming said: "But don't forget that anyone who insults or slanders the court officials at will will be severely punished. What's more, Mr. Wu is not only a member of our Qingyuan County. The magistrate is still a viscount! He is the only noble in Qingyuan County! I believe you all know how much this court attaches importance to, and you will be severely punished for casually slandering the reputation of a noble! "

Luo Heming's words left those people speechless, not knowing how to refute.

Indeed, the ancestors of this dynasty stipulated that they would not be guilty of speech crimes, but this did not mean that they could slander court officials at will. What's more, Wu Fan also had the status of a noble. This can be seen from the fact that the nobles could see the emperor without worshiping him. , how much this dynasty attaches great importance to the nobility, it can be seen that the status of the nobility is high, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people like them can discuss at will.

"We were just talking casually, and we didn't mean to slander Mr. Wu."

"That's right, Luo Heming, don't try to frame us. We have no intention of attacking the Viscount."

Those people said with blushing faces.

Although scholars are arrogant, not everyone is arrogant, and they are cowed in the face of possible punishment.

Luo Heming ignored them and said: "Those who registered yesterday, please line up in front of the door. The adults are waiting for you inside."
