Li Mu counted "one", and the bell became louder in response and was about to hit.
The Tianlao door opened from the inside, Zhou Zhong walked out and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do?"
Li Mu said coldly: "Send away all the jailers. You are alone inside. I would like to ask, what do you want to do?"
Zhou Zhong regained his composure and said calmly: "As the Minister of Justice, I am asking about the case, isn't it allowed?"
"Why do you have to turn away everyone when you ask about the case?"
"This case is so important that all the idlers are avoiding it. Is there any problem?"
"You..." Li Mu pointed at Zhou Zhong, as if he had thought of something. Suddenly a bright light flashed in his mind, and a look of enlightenment appeared in his eyes, and he said: "So it's you!"
Zhou Zhong asked calmly: "What do you mean, Mr. Li?"
Li Mu looked at him and asked, "Are you Li Er?"
A trace of shock flashed deep in Zhou Zhong's eyes, but his expression remained calm and he said, "I don't know what Mr. Li is talking about."
Li Mu didn't know who Li Er was before, but after learning that Li Qing is Li Yi's daughter, Li Er's identity no longer needs to be guessed.
Zhongzhe, Er Ye.
It was Zhou Zhong who won the first place in the Talisman Trial and sent Li Qing to the Talisman Sect.
No wonder Li Mu had never seen the heaven-level talisman on his desk, because Zhou Zhong himself was also a rare talisman genius, but he had never shown it.
In this way, the Ministry of Punishment has not investigated the deaths of Anyang County Magistrate and Tianhe County Magistrate, so it is not that Zhou Zhong has forgotten them.
At that time, he knew that these two cases were committed by Li Qing and deliberately suppressed them.
The mysteries in Li Mu's heart were solved one by one, but Zhou Zhong's heart was filled with confusion.
What does Li Mu mean by coming here?
How did he learn about his other identity?
What is the relationship between him and Li Qing?
Li Mu was so anxious that he was too lazy to talk nonsense to Zhou Zhong and said, "Let me in."
The mystery in Zhou Zhong's heart was still unsolved, so he stood in front of Li Mu, shook his head and said: "She is an important prisoner of the imperial court, and visits to the prison are prohibited."
Li Mu's face darkened and he said, "Get out of the way, otherwise I won't be polite!"
Zhou Zhong looked calm and asked: "Master Li, why are you so rude?"
Li Mu looked at Zhou Zhong and said, "You forced me to do this."
He took out the spirit conch and transmitted the message: "Your Majesty~~~"
After a while, Li Mu handed the spirit conch to Zhou Zhong.
After Zhou Zhong took it, he heard the voice coming from the spirit conch and said respectfully to the spirit conch: "Yes, I understand. I obey the order..."
He returned the spirit conch to Li Mu and silently made way for him.
Li Mu walked into the Tianlao, and Zhou Zhonggang was about to follow. Li Mu turned around and said, "Close the door and don't let anyone in, including you."
Zhou Zhong frowned and was about to speak when Li Mu took out the spirit snail again and asked, "Do you want His Majesty to tell you directly?"
Zhou Zhong didn't speak again, closed the cell door, and walked slowly to the Shilang Yamen.
He looked up and saw that the door of the Shilang Yamen was closed.
In the servant's office, Zhou Zhong stretched out his hand and a white light popped up, and a picture appeared in the void. The picture showed the situation in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. However, as soon as the picture appeared, it immediately became blurry, and nothing could be seen in an instant.
"The secret of heaven has been blocked..." A trace of impatience appeared on Zhou Zhong's face, and he paced anxiously in the government office.
At the same time, the Ministry of Punishment was in prison.
Li Mu had already reached the deepest part of the cell. The scent he knew so well was in the cell just around the corner from him. Li Mu was only one step away from her.
It had been a long, long time since he had been this close to her.
Li Mu stood at the corner for a while before slowly taking that step.
In the cell, Li Qing bent her knees and leaned against a wall. She raised her head and looked at the door of the cell. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and she said, "I thought I would never have the chance to say congratulations to you in person."
Li Mu looked at her and asked, "Do you know everything?"
Li Qing hugged his knees and said, "The fireworks that night were beautiful."
Li Mu remembered the inexplicable throbbing in his heart that day and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that Li Mansion was your previous home..."
If she had known that Li Mansion was her former home and that the day before their wedding was the death anniversary of her family, Li Mu would have asked the Queen for a new house and reselected a date to get married.
He simply couldn't imagine how Li Qing felt that night.
Li Qing shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. I heard from the people in Shendu that you have done a lot of good things for the people. I am very happy that you can live in Li Mansion. If my father knew about it, he would be happy too."
Li Mu took out a talisman, walked through the cell door, and sat down next to Li Qing.
Li Qing turned his head and looked at him and said, "Promise me something."
Li Mu said decisively: "No."
Li Qingdao: "I am your leader."
Li Mudao: "It used to be."
"Don't mind my business."
"I'm not meddling in your affairs, I'm just doing what I should do. Mr. Li is dedicated to the people. I admire him, admire him, and regard him as a role model in life. What's wrong with me trying to rectify the injustice of my own role model?"
…
Li Mu looked at her pale face and said, "Open your mouth."
Li Qing turned around and said, "Go away and don't come back again."
Li Mu pinched her chin and put a pill into her mouth.
Her magic power was sealed, and Li Mu could not break the seal for the time being, so he could only use the elixirs gifted by the Queen to heal her injuries.
Li Qing's lips moved, and Li Muxian said: "You know me, no one can change what I decide. Even if the King of Heaven comes, I will still take care of this matter."
Li Qing turned his head, and there was already a hint of crying in his voice: "Who am I, why do you care about me..."
"You are my leader." Li Mu looked at her and said, "You used to protect me, now it's my turn to protect you."
Li Qing grabbed Li Mu's hand hard: "You can't fight them, my father can't fight them, and you can't fight them either. Besides, I can't look back..."
Li Mu held her hand and said, "Believe me, I will find a way to get you out first."
Li Qing shook his head and said, "You have already made many enemies in Shendu, and this will become evidence and leverage for them to attack you."
Li Mudao: "I will ask the Fu Lu Sect to come forward."
Li Qing said sadly: "I am no longer a disciple of the Fu Lu Sect."
Li Mu stretched out his hand, a white light flashed in his palm, and a talisman appeared in his hand.
He put the talisman in Li Qing's hand and said, "It's happening again now."
Li Qing held the talisman and looked at him. Li Mu smiled and said: "I participated in the Talisman Trial some time ago and won it easily. I thought you would be able to use it in the future, but I didn't expect it to be so soon...
"
"Master Li, the time has come."
Zhou Zhong's voice came from outside.
Li Mu stood up, took a deep breath, looked at Li Qing, and said, "Take good care of your injuries. Don't worry about other things. I'll take care of everything."
He walked outside the cell, took a deep look at Li Qing, and strode out of the Criminal Prison.
Zhou Zhong stood outside the prison, looked at Li Mu, and asked, "Do you know her?"
Li Mu did not answer, but said: "What are you going to do?"
Zhou Zhong was silent for a moment and said: "Assassination of five imperial officials is in accordance with the law..."
"Don't you tell me about the law? Does this god still have laws?" Li Mu, with nowhere to vent his anger, gritted his teeth and said: "The rich and powerful break the law, gold medals are worth their lives, important ministers die in vain, and there is no way to redress their grievances. Tell me,
What is the law, what is the...fucking...law!"
Zhou Zhong said in a deep voice: "Don't forget that you are an official of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Don't know the law and break it. Don't forget that there are many people waiting for you to make a mistake. If you make a wrong step, you will lose everything you have..."
Li Mu looked at him and said lightly: "I don't care."
Zhou Zhong looked at him and asked, "What do you care about?"
Li Mu didn't answer, and a figure strode in from the entrance of the criminal department.
As soon as Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Personnel stepped into the Ministry of Punishment, he asked Zhou Zhongdao: "Master Zhou, where are the remnants of the Li family?"
When he walked into the courtyard of the Ministry of Justice, he realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the courtyard and stopped suddenly.
He looked next to Zhou Zhong and met a pair of blood-red eyes.
Li Mu looked at Zuo Shilang, one of the masterminds of the case that framed Li Qing's father. He was filled with anger and finally found an outlet.
With a thought in his mind, a talisman appeared out of thin air, a faint light flashed on the talisman, and the rune merged into Li Mu's body.
A layer of golden armor instantly appeared on his body, and even his fists were wrapped in golden light.
The Minister of Civil Affairs realized something was wrong, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted loudly: "Li Mu, what are you going to do!"
Li Mu's whole body was covered in armor, and he gritted his teeth and said: "My surname is Chen, I have tolerated you for a long time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body passed through an afterimage and flew towards the left servant of the Ministry of Personnel.
The left servant of the Ministry of Personnel hurriedly blocked and said angrily: "Li Mu, are you crazy!"
"I'm crazy, but it's all your fault!"
"The humiliation you humiliated me that day gave me inner demons..."
"I have no grudge against you, but you actually framed me like this. I can't bear this tone!"
"The humiliation I suffered that day will be repaid twice as much today!"
…
The Minister of Civil Affairs was shocked. He did not expect that his taunting words that day actually caused Li Mu to have inner demons. This made him frightened and angry, but also a little happy.
It would be better to let his inner demons take over his mind and turn him into a madman.
Your Majesty will not pamper a madman. The end result of his inner demon occupying his mind is death.
However, this trace of joy in his heart quickly disappeared without a trace.
Because Li Mu didn't know what kind of talisman he used, the combat power he displayed at this moment was no weaker than God's. In close combat, he could only passively defend and didn't even have the chance to cast spells.
After receiving a few punches on his body, he looked at Zhou Zhong and said loudly: "Master Zhou, what are you waiting for!"
Zhou Zhong said loudly: "Master Chen, I am here to help you."
After that, he flew up, but was kicked away by Li Mu. His body flew into a government office and never appeared again.
The minister of the Ministry of Personnel knew that Zhou Zhong was no match for Li Mu, so he fled outside the Ministry of Justice in a hurry.
He didn't believe it. In front of so many people in the city of God, Li Mu still dared to take action against him?
After the Minister of Civil Affairs left, Zhou Zhong walked out of a government office, patted the dust on his body, and walked into the prison of the Criminal Department again.
In the cell, Li Qing stood up, looked at him, and asked, "What happened outside?"
Zhou Zhongdao: "It's nothing, it's just a fight between Li Mu and Chen Jian."
Li Qing said nervously: "Go and stop him quickly..."
"Don't worry, as long as he doesn't kill Chen Jian, Chen Jian will be the unlucky one in the end." Zhou Zhong looked at Li Qing, who was still nervous, and said, "Although he often did some crazy things in the past, he still had sense. For
You, he has even lost his mind, can you tell me now what your relationship is?"
