Wu Yongbo on the side was also frightened. He just thought that Lin Jue was here to persuade him. He didn't expect that Master Lin actually wanted to kill people, which surprised him. He hurriedly shouted: "Master Lin, you can't do this. Master Liu has no understanding."
Bandit, you can't kill him. He is an official of the imperial court, what's the point of killing him?"
Lin Jue shouted coldly: "Even if he has not collaborated with the bandits, it is still a disaster for such an official who has no regard for the overall situation and the life and death of the people. If he doesn't want to write a letter, what's the use of keeping it?"
"But... killing him won't help. Mr. Lin, you still can't march." Wu Yongbo shouted.
Lin Jue laughed loudly and said: "There is no need for him to write letters at all. He writes the best letters. If he doesn't write, what can I do? I am a scholar. I just write a letter for him. Isn't it just a big seal for him?
There is no need to ask him to write. I came to persuade him to give him face. He is shameless, and there is nothing I can do about it. Of course, there will be great risks for me to do this. If the matter spreads, I will lose my head.
Originally, I didn't have to kill him, but this guy would definitely tell the truth afterwards, which would be detrimental to me. So I had no choice but to kill him. You don't understand this, right?"
Wu Yongbo opened his mouth in astonishment, and Liu Mengyuan was so frightened that she almost peed. It turned out that Lin Jue's purpose here was to kill people. This guy was so audacious that he regarded the law of the country as nothing. In order to achieve his goal, he actually dared to take such extreme measures. It was simply
It's incredible.
"Master Lin... you can't do that. Isn't what you are doing... isn't it... lawlessness?" Wu Yongbo shouted.
Liu Mengyuan even shouted in a trembling voice: "Lin Jue, how dare you, how dare you kill the imperial official. You, you... you are so audacious, do you just ignore the laws of the imperial court?"
Lin Jue sneered and said: "Master Liu, in special times, how can we act according to common sense? Besides, what qualifications do you, Master Liu, have to talk to me about the laws and regulations of the court? You are stubborn for your own selfish interests and ignore the overall situation of the court. You also
Are you worthy enough to tell me this?"
Liu Mengyuan trembled and murmured: "Asshole, you are so brave, you are so brave."
Lin Jue ignored him and turned to the pale-faced Wu Yongbo and said: "Commander Wu, I want to ask you a favor. You are carrying a knife, so I ask you to give Mr. Liu a good time. What do you think?"
"What? You want me to...do something?" Wu Yongbo was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. Lin Jue said nothing, only looked at Wu Yongbo and sneered. Wu Yongbo understood instantly.
If Lin Jue wanted to kill someone himself, he would have to involve himself in the conspiracy. In this case, if he killed the person himself, he would not be able to tell the story. This is a disguised form of silence, but it is more vicious.
If he didn't take action, Lin Jue might not even be able to spare his own life. For a moment, Wu Yongbo felt like he was on a pirate ship. He obviously just agreed to bring them in to persuade Mr. Liu. Why?
Things have come to such a head.
"What? You don't want to? Commander Wu, think about it carefully, does this stupid official still have any meaning in living? Have you forgotten what I told you before? This stupid official does not care about the overall situation for his own future.
The people live and die. The soldiers and civilians of your Xingren Mansion will become sacrifices on the ladder of power for others. Are you willing to be one of the sacrifices? For the sake of the overall situation, there is nothing to worry about. The army of religious bandits is gathering outside the city. Tomorrow will be a fierce battle.
You don’t have time to hesitate." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Lin, can you...can you allow me to persuade Mr. Liu to change his mind? Mr. Liu, please agree. Write a letter quickly and stop being confused." Wu Yongbo said with a sad face and stamped his feet.
Liu Mengyuan was actually so frightened that he wanted to wet his pants. He also realized that if he didn't bow his head today, he might not succeed. He thought in his mind that if a good man doesn't suffer the immediate loss, he should agree to it first, and then he will expose them later, and this Lin Jue must die without a burial.
After listening to Wu Yongbo's words, he nodded quickly and said: "Okay, I agree. Mr. Lin, as long as I agree to write a letter, I will write a letter to invite the King of Jin's army to come. Please let your people go."
Officer, I will write a letter immediately."
Lin Jue sneered and said: "Mr. Liu, it's too late. I just said I would give you one last chance. Do you think I'm farting? I said it's the last time, and it's really the last time. Many things in life are like this.
There is no such store after passing this village. We have a saying in the south that "after Suzhou, there is no boat ride". You missed the last boat. I'm sorry, you have to die, because you have heard everything I said, you
This kind of person will never rest, and you will be shaken off later. I don’t want to be caught and beheaded by Lu Zhongtian and King Huai."
Liu Mengyuan finally couldn't control the urine she had been holding in her pants. The hot urine gurgled out and she could hardly stand. She was breathing heavily and wanted to say something, but found that she couldn't say anything.
Wu Yongbo stood there blankly. He had never seen such a ruthless person in his life. Lin Jue was the most decisive and courageous person he had ever seen. How could he have expected that things would become so impossible when Mr. Lin came?
Cleaned up.
"Commander Wu, are you still unwilling to take action? Well, let's do this. I'll give you a chance. You fight with my men. If you win, I will let you go. From now on, you can forget what happened today.
If you fall out, I won't say anything. If you lose, you will keep your life. No need for me to explain why? Although I don't want to kill you to silence you, but if you don't want to do it, I have no choice but to do it. I, Lin Jue, never want to
He was liquidated afterwards." Lin Jue sighed and said.
Wu Yongbo still hesitated. Lin Jue shook his head and said to the person next to him: "Bing'er, go and sign with him. Leave a whole body for Commander Wu."
Bai Bing slowly stepped out of the queue, pulled out the green flute, pressed the trigger, and with a sound of Canglang, the thin blade was already unsheathed, and the frosty mask said: "Commander Wu, please do it. Although I am a woman, you don't have to hold back, and I will
I won’t hold back.”
Bai Bing knew that Lin Jue meant that he didn't have to hold back, and he would just kill Wu Yongbo and be done with it, so he also reminded Wu Yongbo that he didn't have to hold back. After all, killing Wu Yongbo was a helpless move. This person didn't deserve to die, so he had to let him kill him.
Take it heartily.
Wu Yongbo sighed and slowly drew out his sword, but he did not go towards Bai Bing, but walked towards Liu Mengyuan step by step. Liu Mengyuan shouted in a trembling voice: "Wu Yongbo, Brother Wu, do you know what you are doing? You still haven't
Take them down? You can't kill me, you will never be cleansed for the rest of your life."
Wu Yongbo sighed: "Mr. Liu, my humble position has long advised you to think twice, but you just don't listen. You have to bear the responsibility for this situation. I have no choice. You can't change the city if you live alone."
If you lose, then it is considered a well-deserved death. You should not disregard the life and death of the entire city's soldiers and civilians for your own selfishness, regardless of the overall situation of the court. Mr. Lin... Although I don't agree with his approach, there is one thing he said is right.
Ah, some things have to be done in emergency times. Don’t worry, Mr. Lin has said that he will say that you sacrificed your life for the country and saved your reputation, and the court will also praise you greatly. I, Wu Yongbo, swear to God,
After you die, I won't let anyone touch your wife and children. I will take good care of them. Don't blame me, it seems I can only do this at the moment."
"Bastard, you...bastard...you dare, you dare!" Liu Mengyuan gasped and muttered, struggling hard. But the back of his neck seemed to be clamped by an iron pliers, and he could not move at all. Sun Dayong's big hand
Grabbing the back of his neck, he couldn't move at all.
Wu Yongbo looked up at Lin Jue and said: "Mr. Lin, I killed Master Liu for the sake of the people of the city and to suppress the overall rebellion. It was not because I was afraid that you would kill me. I want to make this clear. I, Wu Yongbo, am not afraid of death.
I killed Mr. Liu, and this will torture me for the rest of my life, but I admit it. Mr. Lin, if you did this not for public service, but because of some selfish grudge, I will not forgive you. Even if
Even if we die together, I will shake this matter out. I, Wu Yongbo, will do what I say."
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "I understand, and I believe you. I shouldn't have forced you so hard, but I, Lin Jue, am not broad-minded. I have to find a reason to let you go. So you can do it so that I can feel at ease."
I'll let you go. Just do it. Just think that I forced you to do it. It has nothing to do with your personal conduct. You are doing it for the court and the people."
Wu Yongbo sighed, gritted his teeth, and shouted loudly. The sword flashed with cold light and stabbed into Liu Mengyuan's chest with a pop. Liu Mengyuan screamed, blood surged from his mouth, and he glared at Wu Yongbo and roared several times. He tilted his head and died. Wu Yongbo's complexion
Turning pale, he flew out.
Sun Dayong shouted: "Where to go?"
Lin Jue waved his hand and said: "There's no need to stop him. You go and deal with all the guards outside. Leave no one alive. Bing'er, go to the back hall to deliver a message to Magistrate Liu's wife and children, and tell Magistrate Liu to go guard the city.
The city is over, I won’t go back to sleep tonight.”
Sun Dayong and Bai Bing left in response. Soon there were muffled screams from outside, which was when Sun Dayong started to attack the captured guards outside Liu Mengyuan's study.
Lin Jue walked to Liu Mengyuan's body, squatted down, looked at Liu Mengyuan's dead expression, sighed softly, and whispered: "Master Liu, there is nothing you can do, I know you don't deserve to die, you just did what you did."
It's just a choice. But I really can't stand it when King Huai allows the bandits to kill people with knives. In addition, this matter also affects me, so I can't just sit idly by. Besides, they have pissed me off and want to kill me, so I can't be blamed.
Okay. Although I, Lin Jue, am not a person who will retaliate against me, I will not be merciful to those who harm me. Originally, the fight between their two princes had nothing to do with me, but now it has something to do with me. You, Mr. Liu, are also a pathetic person.
If you jump out at this time, aren't you asking for trouble? So I have to kill you. If you blame it, you blame yourself for not knowing the current affairs. We are all here, how can we leave? It's because you don't know how to adapt.
There are many ways to get the best of both worlds, but you chose the road of death. Hey, you should close your eyes earlier and stop staring so hard. I will only kill you. I will not touch your family, and I will definitely kill your city.
Just hold on, you can go with peace of mind."
Lin Jue reached out and touched Liu Mengyuan's eyes. When he raised his hand, Liu Mengyuan's wide-open eyes had already closed. Lin Jue stood up, walked behind the desk and sat down. He looked at the inkstone and brush with wet ink, and reached out to seal the desk.
He took the letter from Jiao. After opening the letter, he read it carefully several times under the lamp. He sighed and thought for a moment, then slowly spread out a piece of letter paper and started writing sentence by sentence according to the handwriting on the letter.
Soon after, a short letter was written. Lin Jue found the magistrate's seal in the secret box under the study, stamped it, kicked the letter in his arms, got up and left.
