Chapter 1,688 Meeting Bureau(1/2)

The cold sweat on Bai Tu's face was like rain, and he trembled and replied:

"This...this...you and me are both from above. A low-level person speaks lightly. If you neglect anyone, there will be no good results!"

"General Zhang Han, you have no choice but to take down a low position, otherwise your life will be hard to save!"

Bai Tu's defense cannot be said to be unreasonable.

Of course Luo, or Luo Wang, has no power to instruct imperial officers, but if you reason with an organization like Luo Wang, it's not necessary.

The imperial court is a violent organization, and Luo Wang is a violent organization among violent organizations.

To be honest, is it still called a killer organization?

Bai Tu is a lieutenant whose status can only be said to be neither high nor low. If he dares not to give face to Luo Wang, he is afraid that he will go too far now.

But Bai Tu was definitely not simply threatened, he and Luo Wen were running in both directions, so he should still kill the Nine Tribes.

"Hmph!" Zhang Han sneered, "You dare to make peace with Luo Wang and are you afraid of death?"

"If it weren't for the two people in Guigu Zongheng, do you think you can still kneel here and complain?"

"This..." Bai Tu knew that he really had no room for quibbles in front of Zhang Han, so he knocked his head on the ground and replied with a haggard mind, "It's because I am ignorant because of my humble position. I will explain everything. I just ask the general to spare my life."

Zhang Han didn't care about his life or death and began to interrogate him:

"Since Shurou has already arranged to hijack the Stone of Fire, why did he appear in the camp that night?"

"He said that the matter is of great importance and the Stone of Enlightenment must be verified again."

This answer sounds very problematic at first glance.

Zhang Han further questioned, "Verification...does it require you to go outside to show off? What exactly did he do to the Stone of Enlightenment?"

"I really don't know about this... humble job. He didn't tell me anything."

The tragedy of being a chess piece is that he is just pushed and moved, but never knows why he is moving like this.

Zhang Han and others didn't think Bai Tu could know, they just asked by the way, and it didn't cost any money anyway.

At this time, Gai Nie said, "The key to the problem lies in the content on the Stone of Fire."

"What is on the Yinghuo Stone?" Long Qie couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

There was a lot of confusing information about the Stone of Fire, but he still didn't have a clear answer as to what was so special about this stone.

Like him, there is Zhong Limei, who has never seen the Yinghuo Stone with his own eyes.

Zhang Han was silent for a moment, and then replied in a deep voice:

"There is a line of words above, a line of words that is enough to set off a storm in the empire."

"Fu Su Li, the First Emperor dies and the land is divided!"

Hearing this sentence, Zhong Limei's expression was a little strange, not like he was shocked or angry, but rather confused, as if there was something in this sentence that he could not understand.

Long Qie acted more calmly, after all, he had heard a lot of similar information before.

But he never thought before that not only Ying Zheng was cursed, but also the eldest son Fusu was involved.

"Fusu...want to rebel?" Although he thought it was unlikely, Long Qie still asked hesitantly.

Zhang Han glanced at him and replied without hesitation, "Young Master has a kind heart and it is impossible for him to have any intention of rebellion."

"It's just a clumsy frame-up." Wei Zhuang followed up.

"But it's very useful, isn't it?" Han Xin asked with a smile.

This simple and crude method of framing is difficult to use on other matters.

The exception is rebellion.

This kind of thing never depends on whether you have this idea, but whether you have the ability.

Coincidentally, as the eldest son of the empire, Fusu, who had great expectations, was one of the few in the empire, and could even be said to be the only one with the ability to rebel.

Zhang Han was silent for a moment, and then said in a sad tone, "Mr. Changping's treason has always been a pain in His Majesty's heart, and it is also the only stain on Mr. Fusu's body."

"It's subtle, Mr. Genie should know it very well."

Gai Nie nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Although Lord Changping died at the hands of Young Master Fusu, the relationship between the two of them is special after all."

"To this day, even though the farm family has no contact with Fusu, in the eyes of many people, these 100,000 gang members are still the greatest support left by Lord Changping to Mr. Fusu."

Wei Zhuang continued, "Now the peasant family is openly resisting the empire and snatching the Yinghuo Stone. Although it is the request of Shennong's order, it seems more like helping Su cover up his traces."

When it comes to rebellion, we cannot make a complete cause-and-effect judgment, but only look at the final result.

Just like whether a person will rebel only depends on whether he can, not whether he wants to.

No matter the farmers have hundreds of reasons to snatch the Stone of Fire, as long as they are helping Su, then for those who are interested, this result is their goal.

"Huh..." Zhang Han sighed softly and added, "The behavior of the farmers just proves the rebellious heart of all the schools of thought... This is the danger of this dead end."

They grabbed whatever the emperor explicitly wanted, which showed that the peasants had no respect or surrender to the empire at all.

From the Mohists, to the Taoists, to the peasants...if there were any problems with the Confucians, it would almost mean that the most famous ones among the hundreds of schools of thought had disloyal intentions.

This will undoubtedly cause the empire, or Ying Zheng, to have a very bad impression of the entire group of scholars - they are all unstable elements, either rebels or potential rebels.

This will bring disaster to the entire school of thought.

Zhong Limei hesitated and said:

"General, I was seriously injured before, but luckily I was saved by a girl named Meng Jiang."

"She happened to be nearby when the Yinghuo Stone fell, and she read the words on it, which seemed to be different from what the general said."

"Huh!?" Zhang Han suddenly turned around and looked at Zhong Limei with sharp eyes, vaguely understanding what Shurou had done.

Gui Gu looked at each other and had a rough idea.

………………

On the other side, the Zhu family, who had finally escaped from Four Seasons Town after a lot of hard work, were running wildly in the forest.

Theoretically speaking, they should rush back to Shennongtang's territory as quickly as possible. Only in this way can they be truly safe.

Unfortunately, their direction is slightly off.

In order to break through as quickly as possible, Shengqi chose the weakest defensive spot that he had scouted when he came in.

And this weak point corresponds to the direction of the Tian family's territory.

Escape was crucial. They couldn't go around half a circle around Four Seasons Town, so they had to run first.

At this moment, they saw a faint light of fire in the distance.

The three of them stopped immediately. Liu Ji leaned on his knees and bent over, panting heavily and turned to look at the Zhu family who was also panting:

"Huh...huh...brother, have you arranged the reception?"

Zhu Jia, who was looking sad, shook his head, "Huh...of course...huh...no!"

If he could arrange a response in advance, he wouldn't be forced into such a situation.

"Then I think our situation might not be good..."

Before the three of them could think about what to do next, another faint greeting came from behind them:

"Hey, the strange fat uncle who can change his face..."

They immediately recognized this very personal voice - it was the silly fat man next to Tian Yan who had extremely high fighting power.

Tian Hu's pursuers caught up.

Liu Ji looked bitter and lamented, "Oops! There's an interception in front and a fat man behind. This is going to kill me!"

The Zhu family pinched the long beard on the mask, looked at the fire in front of them and said in a deep voice, "Now, the only thing left is to take a gamble."

Those behind are definitely pursuers, and if they catch up, they will most likely be killed here.

But the previous situation is uncertain, and they may not be the same enemies as Liu Ji guessed.

Daze Mountain is quite lively now, and it’s not just the farmers who are active.

The three of them didn't hesitate and immediately rushed towards the fire.

After they rushed into the clearing where the fire was, or on the forest road, the first thing that caught their eyes was Yingbu and Jibu.

Seeing Ji Bu, the Zhu family was overjoyed. He was half one of their own.

Although Yingbu, whose position was unclear, was still with him, it seemed that the conflict between the two had been resolved.

"Brother Jibu..."

"Hall Master Zhu..."

Seeing the three people from the Zhu family suddenly rushing out, Ji Bu and the others were quite surprised.

They noticed someone approaching, but they didn't expect that it was the Zhu family who was competing fiercely with Tian Hu for the title of hero.

And...it doesn't look like his condition is good.

But before the Zhu family could exchange greetings with Ji Bu, Sheng Qi discovered someone he was more interested in.
To be continued...
