Wei Muchong took a deep breath, and it could be seen that he had to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart with great reluctance.
The reason why he was willing to suppress his anger was because he had recognized Cheng Dalei.
After receiving the news from his subordinates, he rushed over without stopping. The news said that the other party's mount was a black bull. Coupled with the other party's rough appearance and reckless way of doing things, Wei Muchong confirmed the other party's identity.
Cheng Dalei's expression showed dissatisfaction: "Why don't you kneel down?"
The whole hall was silent. Just now, everyone was wondering if they were hearing hallucinations. This time it was absolutely true, and then everyone thought that this reckless man was crazy. When he hurt people in Runan City, what he should have thought about was whether he could leave alive, but unexpectedly
I also want the lord of a city to kneel down with him.
Next, everyone saw an incredible scene. Wei Muchong put his hands together, bowed slightly, and saluted Cheng Dalei.
Cheng Dalei narrowed his eyes, but didn't say anything else.
"May I ask Master Cheng, why did you hurt people for no reason after entering the city, and why did you injure the officers and soldiers in our city?" Wei Muchong.
Everyone was startled, and then some people speculated about Cheng Dalei's identity. No wonder he dared to ask Wei Mu to kneel before him, it turned out to be that one. It is said that His Majesty has sent a decree to Liangzhou, asking him to come to the capital to accept the reward, and he is definitely the next one.
King of Liangzhou.
In this case, Wei Muchong's kneeling with him was nothing.
It's just that everyone doesn't know that he actually dares to come? Isn't he afraid of death?
After learning Cheng Dalei's identity, the whole place was in an uproar. Chao Jiushan's body fell down, and blood gurgled from his mouth.
What just happened was a great shame and humiliation to him, and he had been holding back his breath. But if it was Cheng Dalei who hurt him, it would not be a shame, but an honor. After all, he escaped from the other party alive.
Facing Wei Muchong's inquiry, Cheng Dalei focused on the young officer and said, "Is this your son?"
"It's the dog Wei Ming."
Cheng Dalei nodded slightly and said, "Do you recognize this sword?"
Of course Wei Muchong recognized this sword. Even if he had never seen it with his own eyes, he had heard of it.
"You probably don't know where this sword came from. It was given to me by Emperor Ming personally." Cheng Dalei said: "When Emperor Ming gave the sword to me, he told me that the empire has too many bastards. In the future, you
When you see someone you don't like, use this sword to kill him, behead the faint king at the top and the prince at the bottom."
Cheng Dalei suddenly raised his eyes: "Wei Muchong, do you know your guilt?"
Wei Muchong's eyelids twitched twice, and the veins in his clenched fists were exposed. In the end, he was so angry that he laughed: "When I do things, I have to do things for the sky, for the earth, and for the common people in the middle, what crime is there?"
"Look, you are said to be fat and you are still breathing." Cheng Dalei said: "I just entered the city, but I heard that you committed a murder and asked him to extort cards in the city. Anyone who refuses to give will be considered as Cui Mansion
Accomplice."
Wei Muchong was stunned and looked back at Wei Ming, who was still kneeling on the ground: "Is this serious?"
"That's nice to say. I don't know whether you are worthy of heaven or earth, but for the people of Runan City, I'm afraid you are truly sorry." Cheng Dalei.
Wei Ming looked horrified and said hurriedly: "Father, don't listen to him, there is no such thing."
Li Huai, whose head was covered with blood, snorted coldly: "This is true. Ever since Mr. Wei entered the city, he has robbed property and women. There was a family with a pretty girl who was kidnapped by him. The husband of the other party went to complain and was beaten directly.
Dead bodies were left in the streets."
Wei Muchong's wrists trembled, while Wei Ming's face turned pale and he hurriedly said: "Father, please listen to my explanation..."
"Serving the country, the people, heaven and earth, after all, is not as important as one's own son."
The anger in Wei Ming's eyes gradually disappeared. He looked at his son kneeling on the ground indifferently and said, "Ming'er, are you afraid of death?"
"Father, I..."
"Don't be afraid, for Father's hand will send you on your way."
He pulled out the waist knife he was wearing, closed his eyes, and slashed Wei Ming on the neck.
Cheng Dalei suddenly stood up: What a ruthless person.
It is not an easy task to cut off a person's neck. Ordinary people cannot do it. Wei Muchong's knife failed to kill Wei Ming immediately. He fell in the blood and shouted a few times before he died.
Father's breath just died.
Cheng Dalei really misunderstood Wei Muchong. He took over as the lord of Runan City and had many things to deal with inside and outside, so he was very busy. But his son was an honest man and would never have such a thing happen to him.
But he didn't know that Wei Ming had lived a hard life with him for twenty years, and he didn't dare to fight back when others bullied him, just because his father's official position was too small. This time, he finally managed to seize the real power of the lord of Runan City, so he naturally wanted to
Give back everything you haven't enjoyed in the past twenty years.
Cheng Dalei took a deep breath and sat down slowly, only to feel chills on his back.
Wei Muchong shed two old tears in his eyes, waved his hand and said: "Carry it down and tell the whole city that if anyone practices favoritism and abuses for personal gain and harasses the people again, he will be executed immediately."
Who wouldn't be afraid of the beheaded city lord? Everyone felt more frightened than when they saw Cheng Dalei just now. They carried Wei Ming's body down with all hands and feet. After a while, the second floor gradually became clear.
"The dog violated the law and deserved to die." Wei Muchong said coldly: "It's Master Cheng who should die now, right?"
"Oh, you dare to kill me?"
"Why don't you dare? Killing one of you can restore peace to the empire. Even if Your Majesty wants my head, I dare to kill you."
"Interesting, I'm really a loner and a rebellious person, but you should give me a reason to kill me, right?"
Wei Muchong pointed at Cheng Dalei's nose and cursed loudly: "You are a thief, you have brought trouble to the empire one after another. You have done countless evil things. Now I want to kill you. There is no other reason. There are only four words: for the country and the people."
.”
"What a man who serves the country and the people." Cheng Dalei clapped his hands and said: "Then I would like to ask the City Lord Wei a few things. When the Rong people came and the empire was in danger, where was the City Lord? The feuds between the princes were causing harm to the people. Where was the City Lord?
Where are you? Your Majesty is under the control of the Prime Minister, and he is exhausted all day long. I serve the country and the people, Mr. Wei, where are you?"
Wei Muchong was stunned for a moment, speechless, and suddenly asked: "Where were you at that time?"
"Hey, I was afraid you wouldn't ask." Cheng Dalei said: "Who was the Rong clan's one hundred thousand cavalry by oneself, who worked hard to keep Liangzhou safe, who outsmarted Song Bokang, and caused your majesty to cause trouble in Chang'an late at night
, cooperate inside and outside to help your majesty regain power in one fell swoop?"
Cheng Dalei slapped the table: "Who is it, who is it, who is it?"
"Of course it's our Master Cheng." Liu Facai and Xu Shenji said in unison.
"Of course." Cheng Dalei nodded lightly and faced Wei Muchong: "Open your eyes and take a look. There are four resounding words on my back: for the country and the people."
