Chapter 20: The Grievance Conference
On the evening of April 22, 2018
When Wang Jiu solemnly claimed to be Jin Yu Sanxiu Zhao Xinyu and ran to the City Lord's Mansion to knock on the door, Shen Qingming and the others, who were hiding on the street corner in the distance, were simply desperate.
Is this what you call intellectual superiority? You're going to get into the coup team like this? Do you really take your opponent for an idiot!?
But if those two guards have the slightest sense of responsibility and mission, they will beat you into a diamond shape on the spot!
The next moment, however, was an even more desperate scene.
The two guards guarding the door looked at each other, and then the older guards asked with a suspicious expression, "Really?" ”
Wang Jiu nodded vigorously and said, "It's true! I have a grudge against Zhao Shenlu's demon girl! For the past 20 years, I have been tossing and turning day and night, longing to eat his flesh and drink his blood! It's hateful that I'm a thin manpower, even if I have cultivated hard to the peak of the Rain-Covered Realm, I still can't shake the evil rule of the Zhao Demon Girl. Now that Hongwu Gong has descended from the sky, he raised his arms and shouted, how can I sit idly by? So I'm here to support with the painstaking essay "Nine Commentaries on Zhao Shenlu"! ”
This impassioned statement, if combined with a little splash of spittle, is simply flawless, only bluffing the two guards guarding the door, and the girls watching from a distance hide their faces and can't bear to look directly.
After a while, the older guards muttered, "...... It's not that I have any prejudices about you as a person, and it's not that I have any support for the former city lord, but your current performance is really a bit exaggerated. ”
Wang Jiu suddenly showed a red-faced gesture: "It's not an exaggeration, compared to the blood and hatred in my heart, where is the anger at this time exaggerated?" You see, this is a collection of poems I have written in the past 20 years, recording my continuous bitter hatred, and I will read you the first song "Song of Long Hatred" first......"
"No, no, no." The older guards were about to break out in a cold sweat, "There's no need to recite poetry." ”
"Of course it is." Wang Jiu said seriously, "If you don't listen carefully to my poetry creation, how can you confirm that I do have a blood grudge against the former city lord Zhao Shenlu, and not someone with other intentions who took the opportunity to sneak into the city lord's mansion to steal information?" ”
This kind of sharp question simply suffocated the two guards.
"This, looking at your performance, I can feel that you must have been oppressed by the former city lord back then, and your sanity was a little out of order...... In this way, we are indeed employing people now, although your situation is relatively special, but after all, the true yuan fluctuation is a real rain realm, if you can serve Hong Wugong, it is also a good thing, I will contact the captain and take you in for further investigation. ”
"Thank you."
After a while, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion slowly opened, and a strong man in silver armor walked out, looked at Wang Jiu seriously, and asked, "You are the Rain-Covered Realm Scattered Cultivator Zhao Xinyu who claims to have a blood feud with Zhao Shenlu?" ”
Wang Jiu said: "I am Zhao Xinyu who defected to Hongwu Gong with a sincere heart, and I thank Hongwu Gong for his great kindness on behalf of the whole Golden Jade City to protect the suffering of Zhao Demon Girl, and I have come to defect and offer advice to Hongwu Gong!" ”
Seeing such an enthusiastic gesture, the captain of the guard showed a toothache on the spot: "That, it's good to have sincerity, but we don't lack people now......"
"Talent is not enough at any time!" Wang Jiuyi said solemnly, "Hong Wugong said at the 17th team building rally in 2004 that in order to completely overthrow the rule of Zhao Demon Girl, it is necessary to unite all forces that can be united. And in this great cause, there is absolutely no saying that there are enough talents! ”
This deafening speech shocked the guards of the City Lord's Mansion on the spot, and several people looked at each other and whispered.
"When did Lord Hongwu say this?"
"How do I know that I was a temporary worker who was transferred to stand guard only the day before yesterday, and my predecessor was personally promoted by Zhao Shenlu, and now he has been removed from his post and is idle at home."
"I have just taken office, and I have never read Zhao Hongwu's speech......
"But it does sound like something Lord Zhao Hongwu would say...... So what to do? ”
"Sir, you are the captain, don't ask us pawns this kind of question."
"Damn, I didn't covet this salary reward and continue to be my big soldier, this captain gets more and has more things, and he is annoyed."
After muttering a few words, the Silver Armor captain straightened his face and said, "That's right, but we also have strict review criteria for talents, especially in terms of origin and resume...... Not everyone can join our ranks. ”
Wang Jiu said: "Actually, I am the child of the son of Hongwugong's distant cousin's family, this is my family tree, and this is the greeting card sent to me by Hongwugong during the festival in 2015, with his autograph on it. ”
The captain of the silver armor only turned pale when he heard this, took the family tree and looked at it twice, his face turned from white to blue, and then looked at the high imitation signature of the hand of the sword outside the sky, and his face turned from blue to white again, vividly staging a good show of yin and yang.
"You are a relative of Lord Hongwu? Why, why not say it earlier? ”
Wang Jiuyi said solemnly: "I joined this team because of the blood feud I carryed, as well as my own talent, and I am definitely not a bastard who comes to take advantage of my relatives when they are about to develop, so if it is not necessary, I don't want to expose my personal relationship with Hong Wugong." ”
"I see, I didn't expect Your Excellency to be so high-spirited, you are really a model for my generation, I will take you to meet the person in charge......"
After speaking, the captain of the silver armor took Wang Jiu into the City Lord's Mansion. The two guards glanced at each other, and they were relieved to see Wang Jiu's back.
The girl watching from a distance seemed to crush the masonry in the corner.
"That would let him get in too!? What the hell are these guards for!? ”
"I now believe they're really just a rabble......"
——
It is indeed accurate to describe the current interim government team as a rabble.
When Wang Jiu entered the City Lord's Mansion, he could clearly feel a chaotic atmosphere.
Compared with Qingyun City and Shen City that Wang Jiu had seen, the prosperity and wealth embodied in Jinyu City were obviously superior, so as the center of the city, the City Lord's Mansion should be more orderly. However, along the way, I saw that the city lord's mansion was as noisy as a vegetable market. All kinds of people shuttled through it, including staff in neat uniforms, and even entertainers in fancy costumes who acted like circus performers, most of them with hurried and dazed expressions on their faces, as if thinking about the ultimate question of life: who am I, where am I, and what am I going to do?
"These are all guests who have joined the City Lord's Mansion during this time, and most of them are in a similar situation to you, hoping to contribute to the Provisional Government. And Hong Wugong has always advocated inclusiveness, so except for a few who are too excessive, everyone else stays and is responsible for some chores. However, a person with excellent qualifications and a good background like you will definitely be more reused. ”
As he spoke, the Silver Armor Captain led Wang Jiu around several corridors and came to a bright and gorgeous conference room. Then, he looked at the door for a while, and his face was happy: "It just so happens that a group meeting is being held inside to discuss the matter of the public trial meeting in seven days, list her crimes, and discuss her verdict." Since you have a deep blood grudge against Zhao Shenlu and have written a heroic essay against her, it is best to participate in this kind of meeting and discussion. Let me see, in the venue, Lord Hongwu, Lord Hongwen, Lord Ling Bo and several other elders of the Zhao clan are here, if you can seize the opportunity to make a splash, the future must be promising! I only hope that at that time you can remember that the person who brought you into the field was Zhao Taojin, the squad leader of the Temporary Guard of the City Lord's Mansion...... Come, follow me through the back door. ”
Wang Jiu calculated for a moment, almost all the high-level personnel of the provisional government were gathered in this venue, if he could detonate a Qingyu True Yuan Divine Thunder here, Zhao Shenlu's predicament would disappear in an instant.
However, based on the nature of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword, unless it was extremely necessary, Wang Jiu would not kill the human race.
So it's time to think hard about how to create a situation that is extremely necessary in order to cut through the mess quickly......
With this thought, Wang Jiu entered the conference room from behind, and several participants at the door felt a little curious about Wang Jiu who suddenly entered, but based on the current chaotic situation in the City Lord's Mansion, they didn't say anything, just nodded to Wang Jiu, and then focused their attention on the center of the venue.
Zhao Hongwu is making an impassioned speech.
"I've stressed the situation we are in many times, and it's like walking on thin ice! Although relying on the skillful hands of Fairy Lingbo, we were able to suppress Zhao Shenlu for a while, but it was only for a while! If we can't unite as soon as possible and come up with a long-term solution, today's good situation may be in vain at any time! And our group policy meeting has been held several times, and everyone's enthusiasm for speaking has not been mobilized, and many people are still riding on the wall and watching! Among them, some people are used to political speculation, but more people still have unrealistic illusions about Zhao Shenlu! I think she works hard, I think her humanity is not bad, and I think she is wise and capable! But I would like to solemnly warn you here, you are wrong! In the twenty years since she was in power, she has certainly made indelible contributions to Jin Yucheng, but her crimes are also innumerable, but all the time Jin Yucheng's public opinion has been controlled by her, and her crimes have been concealed! Now, I will announce her crime to everyone in advance before the public trial! ”
After speaking, Zhao Hongwu lowered his face and said in an unusually serious and painful tone: "Next, I would like to ask Victim No. 1 to share his victimization experience. ”
When the words fell, an old man with a sad face, a gray beard, and a withered old man walked up to the stage tremblingly, and said in a dying voice: "Hello everyone, I am the victim Zhao Xiao, and I will tell you about the crime of the demon girl Zhao Shenlu shamelessly sexually harassing me twenty years ago......"
