Nanzheng County, county guard.

A group of officials knelt in the hall tremblingly, and they didn't dare to meet Wang Can's gaze.

Yes, he didn't dare to face Wang Can's gaze.

It's not that I'm afraid of Wang Can, but I'm ashamed.

When the new Taishou arrived in Hanzhong, he was assassinated by Hanzhong officials, which really made Hanzhong officials lose face and lose face. Although the military general who assassinated Wang Can had been killed, and Wang Can was not injured, Wang Can's face instantly tensed, and the smile on his face was replaced by a cold and deep face.

encountered this incident, Wang Can didn't say a word, and directly entered the city with the soldiers.

settled Cai Yan, Guo Jia, and Lu Meng...... Waiting for a group of people, Wang Can immediately summoned the officials of Hanzhong to the county guard mansion to discuss matters.

Many Hanzhong officials understood that Wang Can was on the verge of breaking out, so they lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to come out, and they didn't even dare to look at Wang Can.

Silence, wordlessness.

In the living room, the atmosphere became stagnant.

No official stood up to speak, Wang Can also sat in the living room with a cold expression, his face was as heavy as water, his eyes flashed with a fierce look, and his eyes were like crazy beasts, ready to choose people to devour at any time.

"Whew... Whew......" Wang Can's eyes narrowed slightly, took a deep breath, and asked, "Can anyone tell me, who is the person who stabbed me in Nanzheng City today, and who are the people who are related to him?" Who are the people with whom he is in regular contact? Who are the people who plotted to assassinate me? ”

Wang Can's voice fell, and there was still no movement in the hall, but no official stood up to speak.

"Could it be that no one knows about Hanzhong County?" Wang Can said with a sneer.

At this time, the old man who sat first on the left side of the hall stood up.

The old man had white hair and beard, was dressed in a black robe, and was holding a cane in his hand, tremblingly walked to the living room, saluted Wang Can, and said: "Lord Wang, the military general who assassinated the Lord today is named Su Zhi, and he is Su Gu's cousin. ”

"Su Zhi's crime was committed by Su Zhi alone, no one else knows, and there are no accomplices, please let your adults know about it."

When the old man spoke, he was full of energy, his words were correct and round, and he did not have the slightest fear.

"Hahaha...... It turned out to be Su Gu's cousin Su Zhi, well, what a Su Zhi, who dared to commit murder in broad daylight. It's really bold, it seems that even if Su Gu dies, many people still don't give up. After Wang Can heard this, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he said in a contemptuous manner: "Before, I once heard that the Son of Heaven was angry, and the corpses were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river; Ordinary people are angry, the dead and wounded are only two people, and the blood is only five steps spatter; However, Ben Taishou is angry, although it is not as domineering and arrogant as the anger of the Son of Heaven, but it is not comparable to the anger of ordinary people. ”

"My wrath is full of corpses, and blood stains the earth."

Wang Can's eyes widened, and he roared loudly at the officials sitting in the hall.

With a turn of his eyes, Wang Can's gaze fell on the outside of the living room, and he shouted: "Where is the armor outside the door?" ”

Outside the living room, Pei Yuanshao heard Wang Can shouting, and immediately ran in with two soldiers, Pei Yuanshao was dressed in armor, and between walking, the armor rubbed against each other and made a clicking sound, and walked to the center of the living room, Pei Yuanshao knelt on one knee on the ground, and arched his hand: "Lord, Pei Yuanshao is here." ”

Wang Can's eyes were cold, and he ordered in a deep voice: "If Su Zhi commits the following crimes, his sins are unforgivable, and the head will be displayed to the public for three days, and a notice will be posted to explain all Su Zhi's sins." ”

"Ben Taishou treats people with kindness and convinces people with virtue, but it's a pity, Ben Taishou treats Su Gu and his people too kindly, I thought about killing Su Gu, and his family and relatives will not be held accountable, which will make these people grateful to Dade, but I didn't expect them to be stubborn and unrepentant. Such a wolf-hearted dog-lung, who doesn't know how to repay the favor, what is the use of staying? ”

"Pei Yuanshao, you immediately send soldiers to surround the mansion where Su Gu and Su Zhi live, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

"If there is resistance, young and old, they will be killed on the spot."

Wang Can said in the end, he was already angry to the extreme, almost word by word, and gritted his teeth and finished the last sentence.

"No!" Hearing this, Pei Yuanshao replied with a fist, and then prepared to leave the hall with the soldiers.

"Wait, you can't go, you can't go." The old man standing on the side hurriedly turned around, took two quick steps and blocked Pei Yuanshao with his thin body, preventing Pei Yuanshao from leaving the hall.

Pei Yuanshao didn't pay attention to the old man, but glanced back at Wang Can and waited for Wang Can's order.

Wang Can waved his hand and motioned for Pei Yuanshao not to move for the time being.

At this time, the old man saw that Pei Yuanshao was standing still, so he picked up his robe and knelt down, and said: "Lord Wang, Su Zhi was bold and reckless, assassinating the adult, this was done by Su Zhi alone, and it has nothing to do with Su Gu and Su Zhi's family. Besides, the adults were protected by God, and they were not hurt. Please also ask the adults to let go of Su Gu and Su Zhi's family, there is a way that will not affect his wife and children, although Su Gu and Su Zhi are guilty, they cannot implicate their parents, wives and children. ”

"If the adults insist on surviving Su Gu and Su Zhi's houses, please also detain the lords."

"As a county guard, he is responsible for the promotion of officials, Su Zhi has the opportunity to assassinate the adult, and the lowly position also has the responsibility of negligence, please think twice."

The old man's words were earnest, and the officials nodded their heads again and again.

Moreover, the old man also understood that if the officers and soldiers sent by Wang Can surrounded Su Gu and Su Zhi's family, I am afraid that the Su family would be completely wiped out.

In troubled times, soldiers are like bandits, this sentence is not unreasonable.

Wang Can listened to the old man's words, but his brows frowned slightly, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.

At this time, another middle-aged man in a soap-colored robe stood up, knelt beside the old man and said, "My lord, what Old Deng said is true. The so-called misfortune is not as good as his wife and children, Su Gu and Su Zhi committed the following crimes, and it is innocent to be killed by adults, but Su Gu and Su Zhi's families are innocent, and please think twice before acting. ”

"Please think twice."

With the first bird, the officials in the living room also got up one after another, bowed to Wang Can, knelt in the living room and shouted: "Please think twice before acting." ”

There is a way to punish the public, and if there are too many people, it will naturally be difficult to deal with.

These officials are all old oilmen of officialdom, and they don't leave their hands behind.

Seeing the old man pleading guilty, some people echoed it, and they all stood up to advise Wang Can.

All the officials kneeling in the hall knelt down and begged Wang Can to spare Su Gu and Su Zhi's families. All the people bow down, what kind of concept is this, all the officials in the black pressure are the main officials in Hanzhong, if all the officials are disposed of, the official palace in Hanzhong will also collapse and cannot function.

Wang Can's face darkened, and he was extremely angry in his heart.

I thought that I could punish Su Gu's descendants by using Su Zhi's assassination, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. His gaze fell on the old man and asked, "Dare to ask the old man's name?" ”

The old man, the term of officialdom in the old days, is an honorific person who is honored by the elderly.

The old man is a Hanzhong Gongcao, and he is an old and virtuous person, so Wang Can calls the old man. Hearing Wang Can's inquiry, the old man raised his head and replied: "Lord Hui, Deng Zheng, the character is square, and he holds the position of Gongcao in Hanzhong." The adults asked, are you willing not to blame the past and not harm Su Gu and Su Zhi's families? ”

Wang Can felt funny in his heart, he just asked a word, Deng Zheng could actually think of the release of Su Gu and Su Zhi's family.

Deng Zheng is really an 'interesting' person.

Although Deng Zheng has a conscience and responsibility, he is a good person and a good official, but unfortunately he is not a good superior.
