Chapter 43 If I break my promise, it will be like this cup!

Wu Zhengde asked, "So what? Isn't it the best result if I win?"

Li Ruhai said angrily: "The lord did win, but it is even more indignant than losing. Although the lord won this battle, he lost his heart. Can the lord win next time? Therefore, I think that the means will lead to the consequences."

"What do you want to say?" Wu Zheng believed Sun Mingzhen's judgment of Li Ruhai a little. This is also a person with a limit.

"The Lord is in the Chen family and killed three people without the trial of the government."

"I said that it is self-defense."

"The number of soldiers he brought around at that time was enough to defend himself. Even if he had no choice, killing one person would be enough."

"What else do you want to say?" Li Mu's face became a little gloomy.

"Mr. Chen took Master Chen away in front of Lord Huang and Bei Zhi yesterday. How dare you ask Master Sun, where is Master Sun now?"

"Dead."

"Dead?"

"Dead!"

Li Ruhai shouted in grief and anger: "How did he die?"

"Shooted by crossbow arrows."

"Who killed?"

"have no idea."

"Isn't it done by the adults?"

"Random. Do I need to use a crossbow arrow to kill Sun Mingzhen?" Wu Zheng was angry and slapped the table, "Li Ruhai, do you think this is your class room. Do I accept your question?"

Li Ruhai sneered: "Sir, are you anxious?"

"What's the hurry to me?"

"The Lord said just now that today, there are only Wuzhuang Wu Zheng and Shining Zhen Li Ruhai. I forgot what I said when I go out. This is especially true in my ears."

"I am confident in my words."

"Then please answer, sir, who killed Sun Mingzhen?"

"I said it, I don't know."

"Can the adults be at the scene of the murder?"

"Sun Mingzhen died next to me."

"That adult still says he doesn't know?"

"You misunderstood. I am saying that I don't know who is the master."

"I asked, who is the murderer?"

"Three murderers."

"Where is the murderer?"

"I was chased by the general flag under my official, and the three murderers died on the spot when they saw that they could not escape."

"Where is the murderer's body?"

"There is about fifty miles north of Shining Town, and now I am building houses there and relocating the people who accompany you."

"Where are the people?"

"The people rescued by my official from Jinshanwei."

"Can you have obtained the approval of the government?"

"Of course, the court agreed. The Lu Jianguo also specially granted 2,000 taels of silver to resettle the people."

"Okay. Lord Huineng. Please go to the beach to check it out."

"Li Ruhai, do you know what will happen here?"

"I don't know, but it's the duty of arresting the murderer."

"Have you ever thought about who would be the one who wanted to assassinate Sun Mingzhen?"

Li Ruhai was silent. He was not a fool. Yesterday, Huang Degong sent a servant to arrest Sun Mingzhen on Shining Street. He was present.

If you can't even guess this, you'll have been in vain for more than ten years of punishment.

But Li Ruhai also understood that the water here was too deep, so deep that it would be a disaster if you stepped in.

Not only will it not be too much, it will also cause family members.

So, he didn't want to get involved.

After a previous conversation, Li Ruhai believed that Wu Zheng was not the murderer.

Killing Sun Mingzhen would not do any good to Wu Zheng.

Besides, Wu Zheng didn't have to tell him the news that Sun Mingzhen was dead.

But as the captain, there are murder cases under his jurisdiction. He is in his position and has to take up his post and cannot avoid it.

And Sun Mingzhen may be the only person he can communicate with in Yamen County.

Since you can make friends, you are friends.

If a friend is in trouble, how can he not help?

If a friend dies in vain, how can he sit and watch?

Therefore, Li Ruhai decided to investigate.

Wu Zheng looked at Li Ruhai's flickering face and sighed: "It seems that Captain Li is aware of the pros and cons of this matter, but if this official takes you to examine the body, it will definitely be known to everyone. Have you ever thought about how the master behind the scenes will deal with you and me?"

Li Ruhai's face gradually stabilized, "What should we do according to the opinions of the great master?"

"I do have a way. Can I trust you?"

Li Ruhai said: "I am humble in position and speak lightly. I don't want to be a knife in anyone's hands. But if an adult is willing to preside over justice for Sun Mingzhen, he needs to do something, and he will take the lead in taking responsibility."

Wu Zheng comforted his hands and said, "Okay. Sun Mingzhen did not read you wrong."

Li Ruhai was stunned, "Sun Mingzhen is still alive?"

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "At that time, Sun Mingzhen discussed with me, and was about to send a letter to him to invite the Captain Li to thoroughly investigate the case of Huang Degong secretly colluding with the Tartars, but he was assassinated. He told me that Captain Li is a trustworthy person. This is also the reason why the Japanese officials came to you privately."

Li Ruhai's face was calm when he heard this.

Wu Zheng was a little surprised. Huang Degong secretly understood the Tartars. Is Li Ruhai also aware of this?

Sure enough, Li Ruhai said: "Mr. Huang has had contacts with the Tartars, and he has heard of some humble positions. But the world is hard now. I am afraid that it is not just Mr. Huang who does this? People's hearts are already confused. Even if Master Huang is investigated and punished, it will not be able to change the current situation."

Wu Zheng said: "Even if you can't completely remove the dust, it won't prevent you and me from making the world cleaner. What does Captain Li think? If everyone chooses to sit and watch, then the world will be completely unsuccessful."

Li Ruhai was moved by it, and he clasped his fists and said, "Sir, what do you want me to do?"

Wu Zheng decided to choose trust, so he told Li Ruhai about the previous suspicions and related secret letters.

Li Ruhai's face became indignant.

For him, if Huang Degong was just to surrender to the enemy himself, he would rather think that he would not know anything.

After all, it was going to rain and my mother was going to get married. He was a poor captain and could not stop him even if he wanted to.

But he had no idea that Huang Degong did not want to surrender to the enemy alone, but joined forces with the four counties under Shaoxing Prefecture to offer a city to the Qing Dynasty, which also involved important officials of the court.

This is not a surrender to the enemy, it is a treason for the country, and it is a stolen life for the people of the four counties to exchange for their future.

"Captain Li, the secret letter is under the table in Huang Degong's study. Sun Mingzhen said that only you can take it quietly. Are you willing?"

Li Ruhai thought for a while and said, "You can do it. However, if the magistrate Huang County does not leave the yamen, you will not find a reason to go to the study to get the letter."

"You don't have to worry about this. I will lure Huang Degong out of the yamen in the name of inviting him to the banquet. At that time, you have enough time to find this letter."

Li Ruhai stood up and bowed, "I listen to you, sir."

After hesitating for a moment, Li Ruhai said: "Please swear that if Bei Zhi gets this letter, he will definitely bring the person in the letter to justice and give Sun Mingzhen justice."

With a "bang", Wu Zheng put the teacup in his hand on the ground, splitting it into pieces.

Pointing to the land of disgrace, Wu Zheng said, "If I break my promise, I will still be like this!"
