"Kang-sama...... You ......" Qian Zhongze was completely dumbfounded, Kang Zizhen sold himself so easily, without hesitation at all. Qian Zhongze suddenly realized that he was probably going to be worse today.
"What am I? You bastard, you dare to report a false case, give false testimony, and talk nonsense to slander Lord Lin. The official who harmed the prince and the county lord lost his manners. The magistrate will punish you severely, so as to set an example. Kang Zizhen shouted.
Qian Zhongze's legs weakened, and he collapsed to the ground with a bang.
Guo Bing sneered: "Master Kang, how are you going to punish this person?" ”
Kang Zizhen hurriedly bowed down and said: "This person's crime is extremely heinous, and the death penalty cannot be escaped. The lower officials wanted to confiscate his family's property, put him on death row, and beheaded him after the autumn. Will such a mad people be kept as a scourge? Not killing is not enough for the people to be angry, and the voice is clear. What do you think, Lord? ”
Guo Bing smiled and said, "Kang Zizhen, you really can do it." What do you say, do what you say, you are the prefect, and you are not the prefect of this king. ”
Qian Zhongze, who was paralyzed on the ground, heard this, and his face was as pale as earth. After years of hard work, we have today. If you are careless, you will die and your family will be broken. For a while, regret, resentment, fear, powerlessness and other feelings came to my heart, and all thoughts were disillusioned in an instant. Suddenly he got up and screamed and tumbled down from the railing of the cloister. The fat body smashed the outer railing of the cloister and fell like a broken pocket on the hardwood at the edge of the deck. Bounced up again and turned over, and fell into the river with a 'poof'. The surface of the water suddenly turned blood-red.
Qian Zhongze's move caused a voice of consternation, and Lin Jue never expected that Qian Zhongze would choose to commit suicide because of fear, which was not Lin Jue's original intention. Lin Jue's target is not Qian Zhongze, he is just a small character.
"Ahh Lin Jue shouted.
The boatmen below were busy for a while, scratching in the water with a penny grappling hook, and soon caught Qian Zhongze's body in the water and pulled him up. However, the shipwrights found that Qian Zhongze had died of anger. When he jumped off the ship, Qian Zhongze's head hit the hard edge of the side of the big ship, and his skull was dented and shattered. After falling into the water, he was already unconscious, and when he fished it up, he was out of breath.
Lin Jue stomped his feet and sighed, "How can this be? Why is this a problem? ”
"Qian Zhongze is innocent of death, and suicide in fear of crime is cheap for him. Lord Lin doesn't have to sigh for this kind of person. Although Kang Zizhen was surprised, he was also very happy. Qian Zhongze's death saved a lot of trouble. All the faults can be blamed on him, lest this person change his words and become obsessed.
Guo Bing didn't feel any regret. In his opinion, Qian Zhongze's death was nothing more than the death of an ant. With his collusion with Kang Zizhen, this person will not survive.
"Lord Wang, Lord Lin, County Lord. I'm really sorry for today's events. The official was misled by Qian Zhongze and fell for his tricks. Originally, the official didn't believe that Lord Lin would do such a thing. But this Qian Zhongze's words are conclusive, and the duty of this official is not to investigate. This official is really ashamed. This official is here to compensate Lord Lin for the county lord. Lord Lin's schedule is urgent, and the official does not dare to delay any longer. This official is hereby retired, and he is hereby retired. Kang Zizhen knew that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time at this time, and he should leave immediately, so he bowed down and said.
Guo Bing looked at him with a sneer, which made Kang Zizhen feel a little furious. But he coughed anyway, pretended to be calm, turned and walked slowly down the steps of the second floor, and walked to the deck. With every step he took, he could feel the gaze of the prince and Lin Jue behind him like a stab in his back, and he was uncomfortable. The moment his feet stepped on the deck, his heart settled down a little. It is only right to leave this ship quickly, and it is safe to get out of Guo Bing's gaze quickly.
However, on the boat building behind him, Guo Bing's voice finally sounded.
"Kang Zizhen, are you going to leave like this?"
Kang Zizhen's body was shocked, and he turned around and said with a smile: "The prince doesn't know what else to order?" Today's matter is that the lower officials are not thoughtful, and they also invite Wang Ye Haihan. The lower officials must be cautious in the future and never dare to make any mistakes again. Well...... The lower officials carefully investigated the case today, and visited the prince again tomorrow, on the one hand, to report the inside story of the case, and on the other hand, to apologize to the prince again. ”
"Hehehe." Guo Bing laughed and came down from the ship's building and came to the deck. Lin Jue also followed him to the deck.
"Apologize? But it doesn't have to. In fact, as the prefect of Hangzhou, you are doing routine business for official business, but this king can't blame you harshly. ”
Kang Zizhen was overjoyed, bowed down and said: "The prince is wise, thank you for understanding the hardships of the lower officials." ”
Guo Bing sneered: "However, this king can be considerate of you, but who will be considerate of this king?" What you are doing today is a great disrespect to the king and a great disrespect to the lord of the county. If the king had not taken care of these things, then everyone would have been able to break ground on his head. ”
Kang Zizhen heard that the tone was no longer right, and hurriedly said: "The prince is angry, and the prince has also seen it, and the lower officials were misled by Qian Zhongze." He reported a false case and deceived his subordinates. Xia Guan also hated it very much. Otherwise, how dare the lower officials do this? The lower official's original intention was never to offend the prince and the county lord, and he dared to give the heavens a dar, and the lower official would not dare. ”
"Hehehe, don't you dare? What are you not afraid of? Since you came to Hangzhou to serve, don't you have to compare yourself with this king everywhere and break your wrists? You have repeatedly bothered the king because of the matter of the assistant silver, and after being rejected by the king, you have said a lot of disrespectful things to the king. Guo Bing sneered.
"No, no, the lower officials have great respect for the prince, how dare they say it? Xia Guan may indeed be a little impatient, but that is because of the implementation of the new law. This official shoulders the great trust of the emperor and the imperial court, and comes to Hangzhou to promote the implementation of the new law. I don't dare to be careless. Everything this official did was for the sake of my big week. Kang Zizhen hurriedly shouted.
"Hmph, don't talk to this king. Don't get involved with the emperor and the court. The king is not interested in the matter of the new law, and the king has clearly told you not to provoke the king, but you have turned a deaf ear. What did you say in front of Lin Jue? You said you could use Ning Haijun to force this king to fulfill the provisions of the new law, right? You are so bold, what are you to be the king? Is it the object of bullying that a minion like you can bully at will? Suffice it to say that what you are doing today is not being deceived, but that you want to do it in your heart. Because you don't think this king will do anything to you, you don't take this king seriously at all. In other words, you didn't take the identity of this prince at all, Wei'er's identity as the county lord, and my Liang Wangfu's royal identity in your eyes. This is the general psychology of your so-called reformers, do you think you can do whatever you want now? Guo Bing said coldly.
Kang Zizhen shrugged his shoulders and stood speechless, stunned. Liang Wang Ye understood everything, and what he said was exactly what he thought in his heart. I really didn't take King Liang in my eyes. The reformers are in the limelight in the middle of the court. The emperor attaches great importance to Yan Fang's two adults, and he is a newcomer in the law-changing faction, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about too many things. As Yan Fang and the two adults said, the law changer needs to be fearless, and he really doesn't have too much awe for Guo Bing, the king of Liang.
But at this moment, Kang Zizhen suddenly felt a little worried, a little afraid. When he really faced Liang Wangye, he realized that his heart was empty. Guo Bing's identity still has a great sense of oppression and deterrence for himself. This made Kang Zizhen both a little annoyed and a little regretful.
Guo Bing stood at the bow of the boat with his hands in his hands, looking at the Hangzhou market on the shore with confused eyes, looking at the river bridge with smoke and willows, and seemed to be talking to Kang Zizhen, but he seemed to be muttering to himself.
"I think that my Great Zhou world has lasted for more than 150 years, and many things have been very different from when the country was founded. Becomes unrecognizable. At the beginning of the founding of the country, how clear the world was, the people of the world were diligent and prudent, and they obeyed the law and obeyed the law. Now more than 100 years have passed, and look at the world of the Great Zhou, the people are poor, the treasury is poor, and the world is declining. For many years, Hangzhou has been the richest place in the whole Zhou, and the people live in peace and happiness. But now it has become a miasma, and people have become panicked. Officials are selfish and corrupt, and the corpses are vegetarian. What's even more unbearable is that the rules of respect and humility of my Great Zhou have been broken, and the dignity of my Guo royal family has been trampled on. Why is that? Whose fault is this? ”
The crowd on deck stood silent, and no one dared to say a word, for they did not know how to answer, nor did they know the answer to the question.
Kang Zizhen frowned and was silent, he wanted to say: "Lord Wang, what's the use of you talking about this?" What did you do about it yourself? What do you mean by that? Isn't it wise to reflect the saints of today? But how dare he say these words?
"Kang Zizhen, you answer this king a question. Who are you? Guo Bing suddenly turned his head and asked Kang Zizhen.
Kang Zizhen was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and didn't speak. The question was asked in a general way, and he didn't know how to answer it.
"Answer me! What is your identity? Do you think you're a character? Is it the owner of Hangzhou City? You can do whatever you want, you can do whatever you want? Guo Bing's eyes were fierce, and he asked sharply.
"No, no, no, how dare the lower officials have such thoughts? Xiaguan is just ...... It's just an official appointed by the imperial court. The lower officials are just doing their best to serve the court and serve the emperor. Xiaguan ......" Kang Zizhen said incoherently, he didn't know what he was talking about, he was frightened by Guo Bing's fierce gaze.
"Phew, do things for the court and serve the emperor? I think you're duplicitous. Let the king answer for you who you are. You're nothing, you know? You're just a minion, a dog. This Great Zhou Jiangshan's surname is Guo, and this king is also surnamed Guo, you are just a dog slave raised by my Guo family. Don't think that you have Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru behind you to support you, they are just dogs raised by my Guo royal family, they are not the masters. Do you understand who you are now? Guo Bing sneered and glared at Kang Zizhen.
Kang Zizhen listened to the wrong tone, and thought about it without answering. Guo Bing shouted violently: "Answer me." ”
"The world of the Great Zhou is naturally the world of the Guo royal family, and the lower officials ...... Xia Guan is just a courtier. But...... How can the prince say...... Are we dogs? What the prince said was really ...... It's really ......," Kang Zizhen stammered in defense.
