Finally I met Tu Qiongdeng, I was just waiting for your words...

Qiao Mu has always suspected that this person had evil intentions and wanted to kill him, which played into his plan.

Qiao Mu said: "I have always liked the late emperor's words."

"In other words, it was a wise decree issued by the late emperor."

The late emperor?

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan was startled again. The alien war was fought during the late emperor's term. How could Qiao Pif like the late emperor when he was so bold and bold?

He was subconsciously curious, so he didn't act immediately.

Just listen to that Qiao Mu continue:

"I heard that after the Alien War, when a certain stubborn civil servant almost crashed to death in the Jinluan Palace, the late emperor issued a famous decree."

Qiao Mu said seriously:

"Those who among the officials and officials can criticize others for their faults will be punished by punishment; those who write letters to remonstrate against others will be punished with cannons; those who can slander and ridicule the people in the city and hear the ears of others will be punished after autumn."

"I heard that before the decree was issued, it was after the Alien War. At that time, the ministers were so angry that they came to remonstrate with each other."

"After the government order was issued, it progressed from time to time; after a few months, although people wanted to speak out, they could not advance. Because those who dared to speak out either died or claimed illness and resigned from office and returned home."

"I have to say that the late emperor's decree was actually quite wise."

Qiao Mu also glanced at the surrounding agents who had a strong desire for survival, and praised:

"Even if you are convicted for your words, it will not affect the innocent people around you. At most, it will only be a delay."

"This kind of government order allows knowledgeable people like me to speak freely without fear of harming others and free from worries. How wonderful!"

Guard Chu had a dark look on his face.

Does this decree of the late emperor allow people to speak freely?

Is this person’s mind different from other people’s?

The expressions of the other Zaoyi agents beside him also changed slightly.

They noticed the new catcher's gaze just now.

This is a reminder to them...there is nothing to be afraid of.

I will quote the words of the late emperor and make my own sense first. Even if Queen Qiu asks for help, or even Ling Chi dies, your lives will not be affected.

This newly appointed chief catcher seems to be reckless and bold, but there seems to be some subtleties in his rough edges...

The middle-aged man named Yan was also slightly moved.

He was not a fool, and he understood the underlying meaning of Qiao Mu's words.

Although this decree was issued by the late emperor, Emperor Yonghe actually did not cancel it explicitly after he succeeded to the throne...

He also cited the words from the late emperor's time, so as the current emperor, even if he wanted to punish him for Qiao Pif's crime, it would not harm others.

Just like Wang Shanhe back then, aren't you afraid of death?

The middle-aged man named Yan frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong.

In places like teahouses and restaurants, there are indeed many people who give pointers to the country, but the pointers should be in a certain degree and not too much.

And this Joe Piff just pointed at the emperor's nose and scolded him for being cowardly and fearful to death...

"Could he have figured out my identity and deliberately put eye drops on me?" Emperor Yonghe frowned and realized that the matter was not simple.

Chapter 66 When people reach middle age, they are like the light and dust (3k

The emperor's private visit in disguise was naturally not a trivial matter. Someone specially tried to cover it up, and it was not something that could be seen through by the naked eye.

And beside him, Chu Xing, a high-quality martial artist who had embarked on the path of refining gods, was guarding him.

The way of refining the gods is to cultivate the intuition in the dark.

If Qiao Pif had malicious intentions, the Chu guards around him would soon notice it, instead of like this now.

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan sat there with a frown on his face, his mind filled with thoughts.

He couldn't yet make a conclusion about Choppif's actions. He had to say that this was another warrior who was not afraid of death.

It reminded him of when he was young, witnessing the ministers represented by Wang Shanhe going to court to remonstrate to death.

The tea patrons around him had already disappeared, and the tables around him were empty.

Qiao Mu seemed to be completely unaware, still drinking tea as if nothing had happened.

He glanced sideways around him and saw that the surrounding area was empty and there was no sound, which made him feel more comfortable and relaxed.

No one is good around him. If there is no one around him, no one will affect his performance.

A lone wolf is never afraid.

At this time, the middle-aged man surnamed Yan, who had always been sullen, also spoke:

"It is indeed rare for you to speak without fear of death, but it does not mean that you are right. After all, you do not understand military affairs. Yiren is strong and Dayan is weak. Naturally, some things can only be compromised."

Qiao Mu then continued: "It is common sense in the world that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. If you have no other choice, you can only compromise. But whether to compromise is to hide one's strength and bide one's time, or to completely keep one's strength and do nothing, are two different things."

"The emperor's compromise sounds easy, but it is the people below who pay the price."

"Emperor Dayan claims to be ordered by Heaven to act as herdsman on behalf of Heaven. But if he really regards the world as belonging to his family, treats his people like cattle and horses, and regards them as financial resources that can be used to please other people and can be parted with at will, then this Is the world ruled by Emperor Dayan’s family, or is it ruled by the people of Jiuzhou?”

When Qiao Mu said this, he was already getting excited.

Originally, he just suspected that the middle-aged man surnamed Yan was of good character, and wanted to trick him into making irresponsible remarks about the emperor, so that he could make a fortune and die.

Now he thought of his life-and-death friend named Guo.

At first, he felt that the city lord Guo Yan was scheming and a very troublesome figure.

Later, he discovered that Guo Yan could still hold back from taking action when he saw his own son being killed. He was indeed a hero who could endure what others could not endure.

In the end, he discovered... This man seemed to dote on his only son, but in fact he valued his own life the most and didn't want to take any risks.

This is probably the biggest reason why Guo Yan compromised and negotiated all the way, but refused to fight with real swords and guns.

So, he was killed by Qiao Mumang.

I just don’t know if this Great Yan court is another Guo Yan who seems to be wily and scheming, but is actually afraid of death?

After he finished speaking, Guard Chu at the next table began to tremble slightly. He was trembling with fear.

The middle-aged man named Yan was also trembling slightly, he was trembling with anger.

If Qiao Mu was questioning the weakness of Emperor Yonghe and the late Emperor of this dynasty before, then he is now questioning the foundation of the existence of the Great Yan Dynasty.

If Emperor Dayan regards the world as belonging to one family, then currying favor with strangers is nothing more than offering family property to evildoers. Although it hurts, it is not real cutting of flesh after all.

The people were in poverty and the imperial court was exhausted, but the emperor was still the emperor above all others.

"Treasonous and unethical..."

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan was already a little speechless. When he was young, he had seen ministers risking their lives to remonstrate, but those ministers still had some sense of control in their words regardless of life and death. How could this person in front of him be so rampant? ..

But Qiao Mu remained calm.

He raised a cup of tea on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat.

Since traveling through time, all he has seen and known in Yancheng is that it is full of depression and dilapidation.

"Every natural disaster in recent years will inevitably lead to famine."

“Ten houses in the small town are empty, and the people are displaced, selling their cattle, and turning into bandits.”

“A dog eats human food but doesn’t know how to check it; it eats human food but doesn’t know how to eat it.”

"These are the prices people pay." Having said this, Qiao Mu looked at the middle-aged man surnamed Yan with suspicion:

"And why are you so excited? With a little money and status, you think you are not a citizen, but a meat-eater? Isn't your butt a little crooked?"

Seeing that this person spoke in an old-fashioned and condescending tone, Qiao Mu guessed that this person might be a bureaucrat in Heyang City, but he didn't think too carefully.

After all, even if the other party is a bureaucrat in the city, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than being convicted for his words and nothing more than death.

What's there to be afraid of?

At this point, the teahouse was filled with dead silence.

Most of the tea guests who were still listening to the book enthusiastically had already left.

Jiang Chen, the sword-wielding storyteller on the stage, was also speechless.

Boss, why don't you come up and talk about it?

He knew that Qiao Sen, who assassinated the lord of Yancheng City, had become a wanted criminal by the court, and that he was taking certain risks when telling stories, but he did not expect that an ordinary audience member in the audience would be much more aggressive than him.

The story he told only risked being driven away, while the tea guest below was talking about losing his head.

at this time.

Another middle-aged policeman in soap clothes walked towards the door of the teahouse. He walked in in a hurry and did not notice the strange atmosphere in the teahouse.

"Captain Qiao, why are you still here? Are you sitting in the teahouse listening to a book?" He glanced at the speechless storyteller with a sword on the stage, and frowned slightly.

"The chief catcher has summoned you for something, come with me quickly."

"Captain Qian? I was just passing by the teahouse to take a rest." Qiao Mu smiled slightly and stood up.

He thought to himself that what he just said was enough to kill him three or five times.

So he was satisfied and in a good mood.

Before leaving, I did not forget to say goodbye cheerfully to the middle-aged man named Yan at the next table:

"I'm leaving, I won't argue with you."

"Actually, you are also lucky to have met me. Now that I am older and middle-aged, I understand the principle of harmony."

"If you encounter my violent temper when I was young, this matter will not be settled so easily."

After saying that, Qiao Mu walked away with Qian Captou.

By the end, Guard Chu next to him was really stunned.

This man still thinks that he has not set off enough anger. Does he still want to stoke the emperor's anger before leaving?

He couldn't help but raise his head, and his eyes met Qiao Mu's for a moment, but they immediately separated.

After Qiao Mu left, the atmosphere in the teahouse became increasingly silent.

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan and Guard Chu got up one after another and left one after the other.

The former straightens his back slightly and has his own momentum.

"Chu Xing, what do you think? Has that person already figured out my identity and deliberately spoke in front of me?" he asked.

"this...."

Chu Huwei had sweat on his forehead and could only bite the bullet and said:

"Then Qiao Pif is a sixth-grade warrior, with plenty of energy and blood and no loss of energy."

"Moreover, before he finally left, he noticed my gaze. He indeed seemed to be a warrior who had embarked on the path of refining the gods, but whose 'god' was still weak."

"The sixth-grade warrior has been seriously injured and his soul has been damaged. It is indeed not groundless."

"As for whether he has the eyesight to see through His Majesty's identity... I guess he still doesn't."

Emperor Yonghe nodded slightly after hearing this and just walked silently in front.

"Then, let's try it again? Ordinary head catchers wouldn't say those words."

"He was recommended by Wang Shanhe. Do his words represent the opinions of the former Minister of Justice?" Emperor Yonghe said to himself.

The atmosphere became more dull.

With many years of experience in serving Emperor Yonghe, Chu Xing knew in his heart that His Majesty probably had murderous intentions in his heart, but he was still hesitating in his heart and had not yet made a complete decision.

.

Including Qiao Mu, many police officers were summoned to the Yamen Gate.

The chief catcher of Heyang Fucheng is a dashing woman in her early thirties, with squinting red eyes. Maybe she noticed that Qiao Mu was a little absent-minded, and glanced at Qiao Mu from time to time while talking.

The chief police officer of this city is talking about a strange case that just happened, called the Impermanent Monster Case.
