Origin Chapter 456: The way to be a king
The city lord's mansion is located on the west side of the morning meeting hall, and the distance between the two is no more than fifty feet. Wu Zhongyuan and Wu Songshi's high-pitched conversation, Wu Zhongyuan urges the explosion of the fire dragon infuriating, everyone in the morning meeting hall listens It was clear that although they had never been at the scene in person, they could guess what happened to Wu Songshi.
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's shouting, Wu Zhou involuntarily gave a shudder, hurriedly got up from his seat, and came upon the call.
Although I guessed that Wu Songshi had been killed, Wu Zhou took a deep breath when he visited the scene and saw Wu Songshi's broken body. practiced.
The door frame of the wing room has been knocked off. Wu Zhou can see the situation in the room from the outside. Wu Zhongyuan is tilting his head to look at him at this time, holding a water glass in his hand.
Wu Zhou took his eyes back from Wu Songshi's body, stepped forward quickly, clenched his fist on his left chest, "See Da Wu."
Wu Zhongyuan put down the water glass and said with a smile, "Come in and talk."
Wu Zhou should be, bowing his head and stepping in.
"Wu Zhou living in the mountains, do you have anything to say to me?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a harmonious voice. Wu Zhou is a middle-aged man of forty-five or six years old, with a honest face and an honest man. People also followed Wu Rong and others to Daqiu to hold Wu Qin accountable, but although he came, he just sat quietly and did not make things difficult for Wu Qin.
Some people's words may just be because they are not good at words. Wu Zhou is such a person. After hearing Wu Zhongyuan's question, he thought about it for a long time before he said "I have no objection to Da Wu's command of the bear clan."
"Do you participate in the bad things that Wu Ao and others did?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
It can be seen that Wu Zhou is not afraid, but nervousness is inevitable. "That day, Da Wu took the Jiuyin wizard to leave Youxiong, and his subordinates also participated in the search."
"That's a trivial matter, don't mention it. Wu Tong and Wu Tong have already confessed their guilt and introspected, and they have also confessed to what they have done before and the people involved." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wu Zhou heard Wu Zhongyuan's words, and hurriedly said, "Great Wu Mingcha, I really don't know what they did, my subordinates are dull in aptitude and low in cultivation, and they have always looked down on me. Even if there is any secret, they will not tell me."
Wu Zhongyuan smiled, "You dare say you have never done anything wrong?"
Wu Zhou didn't dare to look up or deny it.
"Write it down," Wu Zhongyuan pointed to the desk case, "you must not hide the size and detail."
Wu Zhou was frightened, and walked over to pick up a pen to write. Both Wu Tong and Wu Rong wrote six or seven pieces, but Wu Zhou only wrote two.
Wu Zhongyuan had to hold back his anger when he read the confessions of Wu Tong and Wu Rong, but he had to hold back from laughing when he read Wu Zhou's confessions. This guy is really an honest man, and he didn't do anything bad, but No one is perfect, and whoever dares to say that he has never done anything wrong in his life, Wu Zhou also has his faults. The problem is mainly concentrated in two aspects. One is to use power for personal gain. The second is the issue of style.
If it is said that the major city lords are officials of the frontier, Wu Zhou, a master of Ziqi who is stationed with bears, belongs to the courtiers. The bear city is very large and requires many people to manage various things. Wu Zhou is responsible for managing the house. , He used his power to arrange several large houses for his relatives and friends, who arranged them and when, and explained them in detail. The first page is mainly about this aspect.
The second page explains the issue of style. He had a cousin who died in the war a few years ago, leaving behind orphans and widows. Wu Zhou took good care of them out of sympathy. After having an affair, the two secretly gave birth to a son.
After Wu Zhou presented his confession, he kept his head down, with a look of making a big mistake and waiting for his fate.
"It's alright, you can go back." Wu Zhongyuan walked to the table and picked up a pen and dipped in ink.
Wu Zhou raised his head in horror when he heard the words, "Da Wu."
"These are all small things. Be careful in the future, and don't get caught." Wu Zhongyuan said casually. If it is now, people like Wu Zhou should be classified as honest officials. As for the issue of style, it is not worth it. By the way, the vast majority of reports on officials who violate the law and discipline in modern times involve issues of men and women. The officials have all received higher education, have higher consciousness and stronger self-discipline, and even they can’t control it. Oneself, let alone ordinary people, is nothing more than the difference between someone who knows and no one knows.
Although Wu Zhongyuan said it lightly, Wu Zhou didn't think he really thought so, and stared straight at Wu Zhongyuan, wanting to see what he wrote after his confession.
Seeing Wu Zhou trembling with fear, Wu Zhongyuan shook his head helplessly, and mentioned Mian Bo to show him, "You are ranked in the mountains, and you are no better than ordinary people. Being criticized by others, I don't have this concern anymore. I have too many things to do, and I worry that I will forget it when I get busy, so I wrote it down as a memo."
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, and seeing Wu Zhongyuan's writing of the word "true marriage", Wu Zhou felt relieved, hurriedly knelt down, and repeatedly thanked him.
"By the way, what kind of cultivation is Ling Zheng?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.
Wu Zhou didn't understand why Wu Zhongyuan asked this question, so he answered doubtfully, "Why did Da Wu ask this question if he didn't practice Qi in the cheap?"
"She doesn't have aura, how did the scratches on your face come from?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile. The scars on Wu Zhou's face were caused by scratching his fingernails.
Wu Zhou was very embarrassed. "I was attacked by him while sleeping at night. It was extremely savage, and I was very angry."
"Be content, I don't think she's rude, she just scratched your face." Wu Zhongyuan smiled.
Wu Zhou didn't know why, so he raised his head in doubt.
"Okay, get up, call Wu Huan over." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.
Wu Zhou stood up, but didn't leave, hesitating and hesitating.
"What else is there?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"Will Da Wu let me go back?" Wu Zhou asked.
"Huh?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned in confusion.
"The subordinate is guilty, please Da Wu convict." Wu Zhou said.
"It's enough to do things well in the future, let's go." Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand and urged him. He had to talk to the twenty or so people one by one to understand everyone's temperament. Incomplete, more than 20 people want to talk one by one, even if the speed is fast, it will take more than an hour.
After two reminders, Wu Zhou still stood still and wouldn't leave. Wu Zhongyuan was a little annoyed and raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you leave, what are you trying to do?"
Wu Zhou answered in panic, "Great Wu, calm down, Wu Rong and Wu Rong have both been punished, and their subordinates have also made mistakes, so how can they be exempted from impunity."
Wu Zhongyuan's face darkened, "Are you worried that if you punished them instead of punishing you, they will exclude you in the future?"
Wu Zhou dare not deny it.
"I'm Da Wu of the Bear Clan. You should be afraid of me, not them." Wu Zhongyuan raised his eyebrows, "Go away and call Wu Huan over here."
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan getting angry, Wu Zhou did not dare to stay any longer, so he bowed back and turned to leave.
As soon as Wu Zhou walked out of the courtyard gate, Wu Zhongyuan heard the neighing of horses coming from the plaza of the morning meeting hall in the east. Ordinary horses naturally cannot screech from the sky, and those who can go to the sky are naturally the dragon foals of the horse family.
Hearing the neighing of the horses, Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wu Qin had arrived, and went out to look east, sure enough, it was Wu Qin and Wu Ji who came.
"Wu Qin Dongyuan, come here." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's call, Wu Qin answered loudly, and hurried forward when the dragon foal landed.
Because Wu Zhongyuan did not let Wu Ji come with him, Wu Ji returned to the morning meeting hall and waited for the summons.
Wu Qin met with Wu Zhou on the way here, Wu Zhou greeted him awkwardly, and then went to the morning meeting hall.
Wu Ji must have told Wu Qin about the change on the way here. Wu Qin couldn't hold back the joy in his heart and greeted him up close, "Congratulations to Wu for setting things right!"
"Happy and happy together." Wu Zhongyuan took Wu Qin into the courtyard door.
"This is..." Only then did Wu Qin see Wu Songshi's body.
"Not only did the culprit not want to repent, but he was unconventional and grandstanding, so how could he keep him?" Wu Zhongyuan said sternly.
Wu Qin nodded in surprise.
"Wu Ji must have told you what happened before," Wu Zhongyuan walked to the east wing, "I'm talking to them one by one, you came just in time, and I'll interview them together."
"No, no," Wu Qin shook his head again and again, "There is a difference between superiors and inferiors, how can we overrun? I'll go to the morning conference hall first, and I'll talk later when this is over."
"Don't hurry," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Since Wu Ao is dead, we have already taken control of the situation. The remnants of that are very abhorrent. In your opinion, how should these people be dealt with?"
Wu Qin pondered for a while, and then said, "Right now the bear clan is at the time of employing people, and it is not appropriate to punish and liquidate severely. Be gentle first, and then make calculations in the future."
"It makes sense." Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. In fact, he already had his own plans in mind. The reason why he asked Wu Qin's opinion was to show his respect for Wu Qin. The most important thing was that he knew Wu Qin very well. The answer must be consistent with their own thinking.
"I shouldn't stay here at this moment, otherwise, some people will suspect that the adults are close to each other, and I will go to the morning meeting hall to talk to them first." Wu Qin said.
"Wait, you can briefly tell me the temperament of these people first, and I can also know it." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wu Qin shook his head and said, "I don't have a comprehensive understanding of them, so I can't help but mix my own likes and dislikes. Da Wu might as well talk to them first, and I'll tell them about their impressions later. I'll let you compare them. Reference."
"Alright." Wu Zhongyuan nodded.
Wu Qin was about to leave when Wu Huan came in from outside.
Seeing Wu Huan coming, Wu Zhongyuan grabbed the kettle and poured a glass of water. When he handed the water glass to Wu Qin, Wu Huan happened to enter the door.
Wu Zhongyuan deliberately chose this opportunity to pour water on Wu Qin to show his respect for Wu Qin.
Wu Qin hurriedly thanked him and took the water cup. If Wu Zhongyuan poured water for him in a place where no one was there, he would also be moved, but he would not be so moved. He has a very good personal relationship with Wu Huan. , it gave him a long face too.
"See Da Wu." Wu Huan saluted Wu Zhongyuan.
"You don't need to be polite." Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand and smiled, "You came just in time, Wu Qindongyuan just arrived, you are also old friends, haven't seen you for a long time."
"Yeah, I haven't seen you for a long time, Wu Qindongyuan is so handsome and energetic." Wu Huan said with a smile.
"Haha, that's natural, I have long since returned to the lord of the Ming Dynasty, looking up to the light, not like you, the pearl is dusty, and the face is ashen," Wu Qin also smiled, after laughing, raised his head to drink the water in the cup, and returned the cup to the table He turned to Wu Zhongyuan and said, "Da Wu, Wu Huan has lived in the mountains for a long time and has bears. He is well-informed. If you have any questions, you can ask him."
After speaking, he said to Wu Huan, "I can't stay here, so as not to be criticized, I will go to the morning meeting hall, you can talk to Da Wu."
Wu Huan nodded, Wu Qin saluted Wu Zhongyuan, took three steps back, and turned to go out.
When Wu Qin went out, Wu Zhongyuan just took his eyes back. According to the etiquette, subordinates could not turn around and leave in front of the leader. They had to take three steps back and then turn around. Although Wu Qin received the courtesy, he did not forget his honor and inferiority. There are people who know something in their hearts and can be reused and treated kindly without reservation...
