"So what happened in the end? Did they pass the test?"
"The prince is joking. If those three people pass the test, the student will recommend them to you." Zhao Wenbin said with a smile on his face.
It seems that he sincerely chooses talents for Luo Xin.
"How was the test? Let me tell you."
"Your Majesty, those three people claimed to be good at arithmetic, machines, and machines. So the students tested them on arithmetic, machines, and machines. As a result, none of the three people passed the test."
"Students feel that they are either fake Mohists, or they are not good at learning. No matter what the circumstances, such people should not stay to serve the prince."
Zhao Wenbin said the words of justice and sternness.
Luo Xin also nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
What do people with no talent and incompetence do here?
Eating for free!
"That's because the questions you asked are too difficult, and you deliberately embarrass them!"
An inappropriate voice sounded.
It turned out to be Heizi.
Heizi just had a few words with Zhao Wenbin.
Although Heizi also apologized due to pressure from Luo Xin, Zhao Wenbin still felt a little unhappy in his heart.
Coupled with the fact that I had just drunk a little bit of wine, I am now feeling drunk again.
Only then did he speak out against Zhao Wenbin again.
Zhao Wenbin almost laughed out loud.
He did not mention how to test the Mohist. The question he raised was not perfect.
The original plan was to have a bribed young player raise this issue, and when everyone coaxed him, he would speak out.
In the end, Heizi actually asked it himself.
Zhao Wenbin's eyes flashed, "Don't blame me if you want to die!"
Heizi's eyes were aggressive, and Luo Xin also looked at Zhao Wenbin.
Zhao Wenbin hesitated for a long time before hesitantly said:
"This...student...that...student...is indeed deliberately making things difficult for them!"
"You're such a killer, Zhao Wenbin! You maliciously stopped someone who was seeking refuge with the prince! What crime do you deserve!" Heizi jumped up and pointed at Zhao Wenbin and yelled.
After hearing Zhao Wenbin's words, Luo Xin frowned and looked up at the guard at the door.
That guard was Zhao Wenbin's guard, and he was also the spy left by Luo Xin to monitor Zhao Wenbin.
He led his army on an expedition, and although his family was left in the hands of Zhao Wenbin, he was not very relieved, so he left Zhao Wenbin with a bodyguard.
It's called a guard, but it's actually a surveillance.
The guard looked at Luo Xin's questioning look, hesitated and shook his head.
Luo Xin was stunned. Zhao Wenbin didn't have any malicious intention to make things difficult for others?
Why are the guards shaking their heads?
Why did Zhao Wenbin admit it?
There's something going on here!
Luo Xin waved the guard in.
"A-Liang, I asked you to personally protect the Prime Minister. When the three Mohists came, did the Prime Minister deliberately criticize them?"
Luo Xin made his words clear and asked directly about the guard A Liang.
Zhao Wenbin's face changed, and he waved his hands hurriedly: "Your Majesty! This matter is the student's fault. Please consider the victory of the army and the happy events, and discuss this matter tomorrow!"
"Fart! You want to escape the blame!" Heizi pointed at Zhao Wenbin and shouted.
This kind of thing won't kill Zhao Wenbin, but it will embarrass him, and Heizi is quite gloating about his misfortune.
At this time, a group of generals and officials had already started to engage in eager gossip.
They were all watching the situation on the field.
Some are looking forward to Zhao Wenbin stepping down so that they can make further progress, while others are simply watching the fun.
Luo Xin looked up and said two words to Aliang: "Say!"
"Reporting to your lord, the Prime Minister did not intentionally criticize you!" A Liang said loudly.
At this moment, everyone in the audience was stunned, what are you doing!
Why should Zhao Wenbin admit his mistake if nothing happened?
That’s not right! There’s something fishy here!
Luo Xin felt that his brain was not working well.
Zhao Wenbin didn’t cause any trouble, why should he admit his mistake?
At this time Luo Xin also hesitated, admitting his mistake since Zhao Wenbin was fine.
Then Zhao Wenbin must be trying to hide something!
What was he hiding? What did he find?
Luo Xin looked at A Liang.
"A Liang, tell me what's going on!" Luo Xin said in a deep voice.
Ah Liang said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, even though I saw it on the spot, there are some things that I still don't understand. If Your Majesty wants to know, please ask the Prime Minister to tell you."
A Liang is not stupid either. If he said it, Heizi would be offended to death.
If Heizi is fine, he should be fine.
Luo Xin was even more confused now.
A Liang is his confidant.
Even A Liang is hiding from trouble.
What's going on!
Luo Xin realized that there might be something else going on, and was thinking about asking him in private later.
As a result, Heizi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, that's not right! There is something going on here! You have to let Prime Minister Zhao explain it clearly."
"If I don't explain this matter clearly today, my brothers will definitely think that Prime Minister Zhao is plotting something!"
After Heizi finished speaking, he looked at the generals and asked, "Don't you think so, brothers! If something happens, you have to make it clear!"
Zhao Wenbin could hardly hold himself any longer, so he hurriedly drank some water and suppressed it.
His behavior, in Heizi's opinion, was cowardice and evasion.
So other people followed suit.
In public, the matter has been laid out.
Luo Xin could only bite the bullet and said to Zhao Wenbin: "Prime Minister Zhao, just tell me if you have anything to do! Alas!"
Zhao Wenbin nodded "reluctantly" and then asked Luo Xin for instructions to summon a subordinate.
This person was the scribe next to Zhao Wenbin, and he was involved in the whole process of the Mohist's affairs.
And the most important thing is that this man's name is Zhu Kaiben, and he is Luo Xin's cousin.
He didn't know Zhao Wenbin's plan, but he knew the whole process of the three Mohists' tests.
"Biao... ahem, prince!" Zhu Kaiben came in and saluted Luo Xin.
"Alas! Open the book. Your Majesty wanted to ask about the three people who claimed to be Mohists who came to seek refuge that day. I gave them exam questions. You were here at the time, so it was most appropriate for you to say it. Alas!
"
Zhao Wenbin said to the Zhu Kaiben. After speaking, he sighed and shook his head.
Zhu Kaiben looked at the table full of generals and ministers and began to hesitate whether to say anything.
He looked up and cast a seeking look at Luo Xin.
At this point, Luo Xin couldn't get over this matter.
Luo Xin could only look at Zhu Kaiben and nodded to indicate that he could speak.
Zhu Kaiben straightened up, looked at Zhao Wenbin, and then at Heizi.
After hesitating for a moment, he frowned and spoke.
"Your Majesty, three people who claimed to be Mohists did come that day. They claimed to have their own specialties, so the Prime Minister gave three test questions based on their respective abilities."
"The first test is arithmetic. The prime minister took an account book from the account book shelf with his hands behind his back and asked the inkman to do the math."
"result……"
Zhu Kaiben paused and glanced sideways at Heizi.
"Xiao Zhu, look at what I'm doing, it's your fault."
Heizi curled his lips.
Zhu Kaiben was Luo Xin's cousin. If it had been anyone else, he might have cursed him again.
Zhu Kaiben continued: "The Mohist calculated very quickly, but the final number did not match the audited number at all, and... the gap was huge!"
"Haha! Such mediocre people dare to claim to be proficient in arithmetic!" Heizi laughed.
All the generals also laughed together, and even laughed at the Mohist.
Luo Xin did not laugh. After everyone stopped laughing, he looked at Zhu Kaiben and asked: "What is recorded in that account book?"
After hearing Luo Xin's question, there was immediately silence in the hall.
Yes, if it was just such a simple matter, Zhao Wenbin's reaction just now wouldn't be so intense.
Since Zhao Wenbin is fine and Mo Zhe is fine, then the matter must be in the account book!
Everyone reacted.
Zhu Kaiben paused for a while, then looked at Heizi and said word by word: "This is General Heizi's military ration payment account!"
"Um?"
Luo Xin was stunned, and his first reaction was: Is this related to Heizi?
"What's wrong with my military ration allocation book? What's there to say! That birdie doesn't know how to calculate accounts. If he does it wrong, he's just mediocre!"
"Okay, okay. Let's talk about the next thing!"
Before Luo Xin could react, Heizi immediately jumped out and shouted loudly.
Everyone present looked at Heizi.
Anyone who is not a fool can see that Heizi wants to expose this matter as soon as possible.
There must be something wrong with that account book.
Some generals and officials were already a little unable to sit still, and they also agreed, talking about the other two Mohists.
But there are still a few generals and officials who don't want to expose it.
Zhang Lei glanced sideways at Heizi and said, "What? There's something wrong with General Heizi's account book? You don't want the prince to know?"
"Fart! You are spitting blood!" Heizi shouted angrily.
"Ha! I'm not slandering anyone. I'll ask someone to bring the account books and do the calculations in front of the prince!" Zhang Lei sneered and said unhurriedly.
Among the four generals, Zhang Lei ranked second and was always outnumbered by Heizi.
Normally, Zhang Lei would give in to Heizi, but now that he had the opportunity to step on him, Zhang Lei was very willing to use some force.
If he could step on the black man, he would be the number one general.
Of course, Zhang Lei didn't think that just this little thing could move Heizi.
After all, many generals have some problems with false reporting and claiming military rations.
Even Zhang Lei was not clean.
But now this matter has nothing to do with him, so he dares to challenge it.
"You! You're talking nonsense!" Heizi pointed at Zhang Lei and shouted.
Then he suddenly looked at Zhao Wenbin and cursed: "What a bastard! You deliberately harmed me!"
Before Zhao Wenbin could speak, Zhu Kaiben, who was present, frowned and emphasized: "I just said that in order to show the fairness of the exam, Prime Minister Zhao took an account book behind his back!"
Zhu Kaiben's words left Heizi speechless.
Zhao Wenbin also clasped his fists and said: "General Heizi, I didn't think carefully about this matter. Alas!"
"But... General, you took too much... Alas! We are experiencing flooding this year and we are going to have a famine!"
Zhao Wenbin looked at Heizi sadly.
Luo Xin's face was extremely gloomy.
He glared at Heizi, then looked at Zhu Kaiben and said, "Keep talking!"
"The other two Mohists took the test on escape from the escape room and dismantling the mechanism. These are their professed skills."
"The Prime Minister asked them to escape from the secret room within the specified time, or make tools to break open the door of the secret room and rescue the people inside."
Zhu Kaiben continued to speak, and now everyone did not dare to make a fuss.
Everyone was listening attentively.
I'm afraid of missing some details.
"At that time, only the arrest room on the east side of the government office was vacant, so..."
Before Zhu Kaiben finished speaking, Heizi was so frightened that he jumped up again and yelled in a panic:
"What! The arrest room on the east side!"
Heizi knows exactly what is going on in the arrest room to the east!
Moreover, he had people secretly build the secret passage inside!
He had killed all the people who built the secret tunnel, and he thought the secret would not be discovered.
Now Zhu Kaiben mentioned the arrest room on the east side.
Heizi was frightened for a while.
If the issue of military rations only made Luo Xin angry, the worst result would be to beat him up or deduct his salary.
But if Luo Xin knew about the arrest room, it would not be as simple as beating him up.
If you don’t do it right, you’ll lose your head!
"Hey? What happened to General Heizi? Did he step on the cat's tail?" Zhang Lei said with gloating.
Although he didn't know what was going on in the arrest room, he knew from Heizi's behavior that it was definitely something serious.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I was wrong! I falsely reported the military rations, and I am ashamed of your trust, Your Majesty! Please punish me!" Heizi hurriedly walked out and knelt in front of Luo Xin.
Luo Xin was about to explode.
In front of so many people, it was you, the black man, who insisted on revealing the matter.
Zhao Wenbin is trying his best to cover up for you, but it would be better for you to expose yourself!
And what does this mean to you now?
Do you think I'm a fool?
Just now you were planning to resist, but now you have immediately admitted defeat when you heard about the arrest room in the east!
Are you trying to avoid the important and take the easy way out?
What happened to the arrest room?
Although Heizi is his most beloved general, all the younger brothers are watching him now.
If it was revealed like this, what would other people think?
If someone tries to follow the same example, will the team still take it?
Luo Xin's face turned pale, he looked at Zhu Kaiben and gritted his teeth and said:
"go on!"
Zhu Kaiben glanced at Heizi, shook his head, sighed and continued:
"Those two inkers failed!"
No one cares about how the two Mohists failed. They only care about the secrets in the arrest room.
"Although they failed, the Mohist who was imprisoned inside..."
"Found a secret passage!"
After hearing this, Heizi collapsed on the ground!
"Secret passage! You mean there is a secret passage in the arrest room!"
"Where does that secret passage lead to!"
Luo Xin stood up from his seat, looked at Zhu Kaiben and asked in a deep voice.
"Go back to your lord. That secret passage leads to the bamboo forest in the backyard of General Heizi's house!"
As soon as Zhu Kaiben said these words, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Okay, the case is solved!
The arrest room is where key criminals of the Anxin Army are detained.
Two years ago, two imprisoned prisoners mysteriously disappeared.
A year ago, a wealthy gentry who opposed Luo Xin also disappeared.
Luo Xin takes these three disappearance cases very seriously.
Because one of the two key criminals wanted to rebel against General Luo Xin!
That man was raising troops together with Luo Xin, and his prestige was equal to that of Luo Xin.
Luo Xin used all kinds of tricks to catch that man.
At that time, in order to press for the whereabouts of a batch of gold and silver treasures, they did not kill them immediately.
As a result, not long after, the man disappeared inexplicably.
Luo Xin sent Heizi to investigate these matters.
At that time, Heizi led people to conduct a thorough search of the arrest room, but found no problems.
In the end, the investigation yielded no results, so we had no choice but to let it go.
Now a secret passage has been discovered, and it leads to the bamboo forest in Heizi's backyard.
Is there any need to talk about this?
The cliff is that Heizi is guarding and stealing from others. He took advantage of others and released the criminals privately!
All the generals were stunned when they heard this.
Even Zhang Lei didn't expect that Heizi would seek death to this extent.
"You disappoint me so much!" Luo Xin looked at Heizi and said coldly.
Heizi trembled all over, fell at Luo Xin's feet and cried:
"Brother! It's me who's obsessed with things! I'm the one who's sorry for you!"
"Brother! For the sake of my hard work over the years in assisting you in your conquests, please let me go!"
"Brother! Big brother!"
Heizi kept crying and begging.
Luo Xin breathed heavily and never spoke.
Luo Xin didn't speak, and others didn't dare to speak either.
This matter is related to Heizi's life and death.
If Luo Xin listened to other people's words and killed Heizi, if he regretted today's action in the future, then if he said too much today, he would have offended Luo Xin.
"Brother! Brother! Please let me go!"
Heizi hugged Luo Xin's thigh and begged.
"hiss!"
Luo Xin had already injured his thigh, but the newly healed wound could not withstand the drag of sunspots.
The wound burst open, and Luo Xin fell to the ground in pain.
"Let go! You bastard! Let me go!"
"Come here! Drag him down!"
Luo Xin cried out in pain.
Heizi was shocked at first when he saw blood seeping from Luo Xin's trouser legs.
I immediately thought that Luo Xin was injured that day.
Then I heard Luo Xin asking someone to drag him down.
I thought Luo Xin was going to drag him down and chop him down.
Suddenly, Heizi's eyes flashed fiercely, and he stepped forward, hooked Luo Xin's neck, took out a dagger from his waist with his other hand, and pressed it directly against Luo Xin's neck.
"Brother! Don't blame your brother for being unjust if you are unkind!" Heizi showed his fierce look and said viciously.
"Bold maniac! Let the prince go quickly!"
"Heizi! You are crazy! Let me go!"
"Let me go, brother, and I'll beg for mercy on your behalf! I'll protect your life!"
All the soldiers tried to dissuade him one after another.
"What a bastard! Let me go! You bastard!" Luo Xin said through gritted teeth.
His thigh was really hurting, the wound was torn open, it's strange it didn't hurt.
"General Heizi, why are you doing this!" Zhao Wenbin said sadly.
"You! It's all you! You thief! Didn't I just play with your woman! You actually planned to harm me!" Heizi yelled at Zhao Wenbin.
Zhao Wenbin shook his head and said: "General Heizi, I have no intention of harming you. You have an affair with the Wang family, how did I ever say anything to you? Women are like clothes, and General Heizi likes them, so why not give me the Wang family to you?"
Zhao Wenbin's words were so sincere that everyone felt that it was Zhao Wenbin who was reasonable.
Because Zhao Wenbin previously said that he would give the Wang family to Heizi, many people knew about it.
"Alas! General Heizi, you misunderstood me! If I want to harm you, I only need to keep you secret...ahem..." Zhao Wenbin seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing and immediately kept silent.
"What else is going on with this idiot! Just tell me!" Luo Xin was pulled by the black man by the neck, and his legs were in terrible pain, but he still gave the order to Zhao Wenbin.
Heizi looked at everyone and yelled like crazy: "Huh! He doesn't need to say it! I hid the dragon robe and jade seal!"
To say this is tantamount to rebellion.
Luo Xin himself did not dare to proclaim himself emperor, and he was not even prepared to do so with the Dragon Robe and Jade Seal.
You Heizi found the dragon robe jade seal and secretly hid it.
What are you going to do?
Are you going to kill Luo Xin and use it yourself?
Luo Xin was angry, in pain, and sweating profusely.
Heizi was still strangling him tightly, and Luo Xin had no energy to struggle, and he could no longer bear it.
"Taoist Priest! Taoist Priest, save me!" Luo Xin felt like he was really going to burp.
He shouted weakly twice.
Most people don't know who the Taoist priest Luo Xin talks about is.
Zhang Lei shook his head for a while.
Although he knows the old ways.
But Lao Dao's residence is hundreds of steps away from here. It would be strange if I could save you!
At this time, Heizi kidnapped Luo Xin.
Luo Xin looked like he was about to belch again.
Many generals are already thinking about killing Heizi once Luo Xin is dead, and then taking over the power of An Xin's army.
Just when the generals' thoughts were racing and Luo Xin had difficulty breathing.
