"Mr. Chen is not afraid of heaven and earth. He has been very courageous since he was a child!" Chen Wei said proudly.
Zu An was a little impressed. This guy still had such momentum in this environment, which was indeed far beyond ordinary people.
"Okay, then you plead guilty and say you were the one who carved those words." Zu An said calmly.
Qiao Xueying was originally curious about what method he had to save people, but she was stunned when she heard his words. Wasn't this forcing people to die?
"Hahaha~" Chen Wei also sneered, "Are you trying to trick me into being a scapegoat because you couldn't find the real culprit?"
"I thought you were a smart person before, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid." Zu An couldn't help but shook his head.
"You!" Chen Wei suddenly became furious. No one is willing to be called a fool by others.
The anger value from Chen Wei is +256!
Zu An said coldly: "Don't even think about it. Even if you don't confess, your original fate is still dead. If you confess, only you will be killed. Isn't this a difficult choice?"
Chen Wei said angrily: "This is a serious crime against the nine clans. How could I admit it casually?"
Zu An replied: "Kill the Nine Clan? According to me, your mother died young and you have been living with your father all these years. Your father also died just now. Where did the Nine Clan come from?"
Chen Wei was startled and then realized that he was the only one left in their family now.
After thinking carefully for a while, Chen Wei still shook his head: "No, there are many people in the village who are at odds with our family, and there are a lot of conflicts. When I think of me dying for these guys, I feel panicked.
Why should I sacrifice myself to fulfill them? It would be better for us all to die together."
Zu An frowned, it was a bit difficult to deal with now. Originally, he thought this guy was very heroic and thought he had the courage to sacrifice his own self to fulfill the greater good. However, he didn't expect that his character was more like a hero, rather than the kind of person who would rather
Sacrificial hero.
Chen Wei spoke again: "I'm not greedy for life and afraid of death, but I don't want to die silently like this. A strong man will be famous if he doesn't die, and if he dies, he will be famous! Since the people in our village are destined to die, then I will contact them and
They have made clear their powerful relationship, and I am confident that we can unite them all to rise up. It just so happens that the world has been suffering from Qin for a long time, and there must be many people who will respond to us."
"Your Excellency is well aware of the great righteousness, and is obviously not a thing in the pool. Why don't we work together to plan for great things! When the time comes, you will be able to choose the princes and ministers, and you will definitely not be just a mere censor."
The other party's impassioned speech made Zu An's blood boil. He secretly lamented that some people are born with leadership qualities and their speeches are also very contagious. Chen Wei is obviously like this. If he hadn't been from this world, he might really be able to do it.
Moved by him.
"I'm afraid you won't want to live if you say these treacherous words in front of court officials!" Zu An said coldly.
There was no fear on Chen Wei's face, he raised his head and said proudly: "Since you have told me so much, you are obviously a smart man, and you are dissatisfied with Emperor Qin's tyranny. In this case, we might as well have a big hand, and the princes will
Xiang Ning has the guts!"
Zu An: "..."
Hearing that familiar saying that has been passed down for thousands of years, he suddenly felt a little thirsty: "You don't have another name called Chen Sheng, do you?"
"Chen Sheng?" Chen Wei was startled, "That's a good name. I've always wanted to change my name, so from now on I'll be called Chen Sheng!"
Zu An: "..."
Is there any mistake? What is going on?
Why did Chen Sheng even come out?
Zu An felt that his thoughts were a little confused. If this guy was Chen Sheng in history, then if he was killed together with these villagers, would there be no uprising afterwards?
Would the Qin Dynasty not have perished so quickly? Would the plot of history have completely changed?
Zu An was horrified. As a time traveler, it is a basic discipline not to change the historical plot. Who knows what kind of huge impact changing such a major plot will have.
Then it seems that this Chen Wei, oh no, now called Chen Sheng, must not die!
When he thought of this, cold sweat ran down Zu An's back, and he finally understood why this was the seal of heaven!
Most people have no way of finding out who is the person who carved the words, and the only outcome is death. Even if a ruthless and smart person kills the entire village according to historical records, because Chen Sheng is also among them, it will probably change the direction of history.
It is also the end of certain death;
The only way to break the formation is to complete the investigation tasks assigned by the court and at the same time save Chen Sheng's life.
It seems that the Yinghuo Shouxin incident recorded in history is incomplete. On the surface, everyone in the village was killed, but in fact one should have escaped, and that was Chen Sheng later!
If you just believe in history books, you may really fall into a trap.
Speaking of it, this girl Xue'er was really his lucky star. If it hadn't been for her this time, he probably wouldn't have been so determined to save people, and then he failed to break the seal and died without knowing how.
Zu An's thoughts were like lightning, and he continued: "I won't have to work with you to do big things together. Don't even think about encouraging the villagers to do it with you. We all have families and businesses, and many of them are old and young.
How could I possibly do such a big thing to kill the nine tribes with you? In addition, you also mentioned that there are many people who are at odds with you on weekdays. If you go to them, they will not only disagree, but they will probably betray you, so now is the time for you to take action.
Not mature."
Chen Sheng's face was gloomy and uncertain. He was full of enthusiasm before, but now after his analysis, he immediately realized that it was indeed the case: "What should we do? Do we really have to wait to die?"
Zu An said in a deep voice: "If you believe me, just plead guilty, admit that you were the one who carved the words, and settle the case. I will rescue you after that. From now on, the sea is as wide as a fish can jump, and the sky is as high as a bird can fly."
, whether you stay anonymous or do other things, you decide for yourself."
Chen Sheng did not answer immediately, but stared into his eyes: "Why do you want to help me?"
Zu An knew that a hero like him would never trust people so easily, so he thought for a while and replied: "I originally didn't want to get involved in this matter. I would kill you all once and for all, but I can't help my good sister interceding for you. Add to this
I am not a person who kills indiscriminately, so I took the risk to help you."
Qiao Xueying on the side also kept echoing: "Yes, Brother Chen, you can trust him. Although he is a bit bad on the surface, he is actually a good person in his heart."
Zu An looked depressed, thinking to himself, are you praising someone or scolding someone?
Seeing Chen Sheng's silence, Zu An immediately took another shot: "If you don't agree, I will kill you right away. I won't take the risk that you might leak the conversation I just had."
Hearing what he said, Chen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I promise you!"
The next few people discussed some details, and then Zu An went out to find Mr. Wang: "He has already confessed, and he secretly carved the words."
Lord Wang couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Master Yu Shi still has a way, I admire you!"
As he spoke, he called to his subordinates: "Come here and bring this rebellious and unruly person to justice on the spot!"
"Wait!" Zu An hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, pulled Mr. Wang aside and whispered, "Is such an important suspect going to be killed like this?"
"What should I do if I don't kill someone who commits such a treasonous act?" Lord Wang asked curiously.
Zu An said: "In my opinion, it is better to escort him back to Xianyang and let His Majesty handle it personally. When the time comes, the Emperor Longyan will be very happy and will definitely be rewarded heavily."
"It makes sense, it makes sense. Your Majesty the Censor is very thoughtful." Mr. Wang smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed. "Come here, tie up the suspects inside and put them into prison cars. I will personally escort them to the capital. Mr. Censor."
Do you want to come together?"
"I have another mission, so we won't be together." Zu An shook his head and refused.
Lord Wang secretly rejoiced: "Thank you so much, Lord Yushi, for your guidance. I will definitely live up to your kindness in the future."
"Lord Wang, you are serious." Zu An secretly complained, it would be great if you don't hate me in the future.
At this time, people in the village learned that it was Chen Wei who had carved the words, and they cursed each other. Even people who had a good relationship with him also criticized him. It was obvious that they had just walked through the gate of hell, and everyone was in a bad mood. Naturally, they had to
Vent on the culprit.
Thinking that he had sacrificed so much to save these people, only to be insulted and blamed by them, Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows and was about to have a seizure.
However, Zu An came to him at the right time and said via Yuanqi: "The common people's knowledge is limited, so don't care about them. You can think on the bright side. Public opinion can easily be incited to harm you today, and it will also be easy to incite it to help you in the future."
"
Chen Sheng's eyes flashed, and he nodded without any trace, then lowered his head, said nothing, and quietly followed the officer into the prison car.
Zu An and Qiao Xueying exchanged glances, then left in another direction. After being out of everyone's sight, they made a large circle and ambush to the place where the escort must pass.
In the end, Chen Sheng was rescued without much effort. Firstly, the cultivation of these government soldiers was not high. Secondly, Lord Wang was anxious to claim credit, so he only took a small number of people on the road. He never expected that someone would dare to rob the imperial prisoner.
"Master Wang, what should we do now?" Several of the men who had been knocked to the ground gathered around Master Wang in panic, losing their prisoners. These people are definitely guilty of death.
"How do I know!" Mr. Wang was sweating all over. Not only had he lost his official promotion, but now he looked like he was about to lose his head.
Another subordinate noticed: "Why don't we go back and kill everyone in Chenjiacun, saying that no one admits to the carving, so..."
"Idiot!" Mr. Wang slapped him on the head. "I have informed the court before, but now I am asking for death."
Another person said: "I think it's better to lie and say that Chen Wei tried to escape from prison and injured several of our brothers, and then we killed him on the spot?"
Mr. Wang nodded slightly: "Your method is good, but how to deal with the corpse?"
The subordinate replied: "A prisoner on death row in the county government died of illness last night, and we haven't had time to report it yet. Why don't we use his body to do a Li Dai Tao Zombie and straighten his appearance a little bit? There is no one in the court anyway."
Meet Chen Wei.”
Mr. Wang's eyes lit up: "Your method is good, hurry up, take action immediately. Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, we must not leak this matter."
The others all said yes.
Talking about Zu'an, Qiao Xueying took Chen Sheng to a deserted place: "Now Chenjiacun will definitely not be able to return. What are your plans in the future?"
Chen Sheng looked hesitant: "But my father's funeral..."
"Don't worry, I've sent someone to bury your father over there." Zu An replied, "Of course it's not a grand burial. You also know that you are now carrying a crime after all."
"Thank you so much, my benefactor. I can't thank you enough for allowing my father to be buried in peace." Chen Sheng hurriedly made a few big salutes and then continued, "My benefactor, please rest assured that I will never bring trouble to my benefactor if I change my name from now on.
As I said before, I changed my name to Chen Sheng, and I plan to go to Yangxia City to join an old friend of mine."
Zu An had a strange look on his face: "Isn't your friend named Wu Guang?"
Chen Sheng looked surprised: "How did my benefactor know?"
Zu An smiled coquettishly: "It's just a random guess. In that case, I'll see you later. I wish you a bright future."
Chen Sheng cupped his hands and said, "I will definitely repay my kindness to my benefactors when I have the opportunity in the future. Farewell!" He cupped his hands to the two of them and turned around to leave, with a hint of perseverance in his back.
Looking at his leaving figure, Qiao Xueying couldn't help but said: "Is there something you are hiding from me?"
