Chu Huan looked at Goddess Ma with great interest, and asked, "You said you have evidence?"

"Yes...!" Goddess Ma hurriedly said, "They asked me to frame the governor. I didn't agree with it at first, but they assured me that my lord...you don't have any foundation in Xiguan, so don't be afraid of you. If something goes wrong, they will back me up. And they gave... gave me 100 taels of silver in advance, and the silver is still in my hand...!"

Chu Huan was a little disappointed when he heard this, "Your evidence is money?"

"It's the money they gave me." Mistress Ma seemed to have found a life-saving straw, "My lord, I will tell you where the money is stored. If you find the silver, the silver was entrusted to me by Mr. Dong. They also said that as long as you let me Everyone believes that the governor is the God of Plague, and after driving you out of Xiguan, he will give me 200 taels of silver afterwards...!"

Dong Shizhen sighed, and said: "My lord governor, this old hag seems to be crazy. She knows that her death is imminent, but she is still trying to provoke the relationship between you and the subordinate. Now the subordinate feels that she is really very likely to be Instigated by someone... That's right, I heard that the disciples of the Taoist sect could not enter the hole that day, and the demons "confuse" the crowd. Although there is no trace of the Taoist disciples of the Tianmen in Xiguan, the official believes that those evil disciples cannot be guaranteed. It has already fled to our Xiguan territory...!"

Chu Huan let out an "oh" and asked, "Master Dong thinks that Goddess Ma might be a disciple of the Heavenly Sect?"

"She usually pretends to be a ghost to confuse the people, and now she provokes the relationship between the officials and the adults...!" Dong Shizhen looked thoughtful, "It is said that apart from bewitching the people, Tianmen Dao is the favorite The trick is to stir up internal friction in the government, and this witch may not be a disciple of the Heavenly Sect!"

Goddess Ma immediately screamed: "I'm not...I'm not a disciple of the Heavenly Sect...!"

Many people in the city could hear Goddess Ma shouting. At this time, many people understood that Chu Huan was the God of Plague, which was completely framed. Many people who are admired by the sorceress are even more angry at this time. They thought that the sorceress Ma really has magical powers, but seeing the current state of the sorceress Ma, she is completely a charlatan. They have worshiped such an old liar for so many years , and even regarded her as an impossible master, which made everyone feel very angry. [

"Ms. Ma, is there any mark on the silver you mentioned?" Chu Huan asked indifferently: "You said that Master Dong sent someone to give you the silver. What evidence do you have? Could it be that the silver was written on the silver?" Sir's name, or is there any mark that can prove that it belongs to Master Dong?"

Goddess Ma was at a loss for words.

Dong Shizhen laughed loudly and said: "A swindler in the market is talking nonsense here. Your Excellency Governor, you must not let such a person go."

Chu Huan sighed, and asked, "Witch Ma, do you admit that you have lost the bet with Ben Du?"

Madam Ma's face was pale and trembling.

"Originally, according to the bet, you are going to jump off the top of this city now." Chu Huan sighed: "But this governor is new here, although you deserve what you have done, but doing so is too cruel... Ben Governor asked You, do you want to live?"

Hearing what Chu Huan said, Goddess Ma seemed to have a glimmer of hope. She fell to her knees and begged, "I beg your lord to be merciful and save my life. I won't dare again...!"

Chu Huan said: "It's very simple to spare your life. You first tell the people in the city what is going on with your so-called snake leading the way?"

Goddess Ma was stunned, and Xuanyuan Sheng beside her said coldly: "Hurry up and say it!"

Goddess Ma got up, went to the edge of the battlements, leaned over and poked her head out, and said loudly: "I... I don't have supernatural powers, in fact... I'm just lying to you, the snake leading the way... the snake leading the way is also fake !"

Someone from the city immediately asked: "We clearly saw that divine snake leading the way by itself. Could it be that it will listen to you? It is a snake, even if it is obedient, how can it understand human speech?"

"There is a dish called snake bamboo vegetable, which is the only taste of vegetation that snakes like." Madam Ma didn't dare to play tricks anymore in order to save her life. "My snake, the one I trained, likes that taste even more. Let the snake lead the way, and we only need to sprinkle the juice of snake bamboo vegetables on the road in advance, we don’t pay attention to the smell of snake bamboo vegetables, it’s hard to smell, but snakes are most familiar with the smell of snake bamboo vegetables...!"

When she said this, the people in the city suddenly realized, and someone said loudly: "Yes, yes, there is such a thing as snake bamboo vegetables, so it turns out that the old witch used snake bamboo vegetables!"

Goddess Ma was still trembling, she glanced at Chu Huan, and saw that Chu Huan was just looking at her indifferently, so she could only continue: "The night before I went to the Governor's Mansion, I had someone hire a carriage, and the floor of the carriage was opened. , From the temple to the gate of the Governor’s Mansion, vegetable juice was sprinkled on the ground in the carriage all the way. It was very late at that time, and it was difficult to see the vegetable juice falling on the stone slabs of the street. By the next morning , the vegetable juice has dried up, but the smell is still there, the snake likes the smell of snake bamboo vegetables the most, as long as it smells this smell, it will...will go along with the smell...!"

"You old witch, you deserve to die, you have lied to us for so many years, you will die...!"

"Old witch, we still offer incense to you, so you are lying to us, everyone beat this old witch to death...!"

"You caused us to follow you to make troubles in the Governor's Mansion. If the Governor-General hadn't been in large numbers and didn't care about us, we would have been imprisoned by you and thrown into prison...!"

"My lord, kill this old hag, kill this old hag...!"

The crowd in the city was excited, when everyone found out that the sorceress they had been worshiping was such an old liar, and so many people were deceived by an old woman, one can imagine how angry everyone was.

Standing at the top of the city, Chu Huan raised his hands, and the voices of the crowd gradually died down, and when the crowd died down, Chu Huan said loudly: "Fathers, folks, the governor came here today, and in front of everyone, I will expose Goddess Ma's deception is not just to target such a small witch, it is true that Goddess Ma deceives the public and deceives everyone, she deserves to die, but I ask everyone, is everyone at fault?"

People looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one dared to speak.

"Let me tell you a word of conscience. Goddess Ma is at fault, and everyone is at fault." Chu Huan said seriously, "Mrs. Ma is just a little liar, which is not worth mentioning, but she was able to mess around in Shuoquan. The wind is booming, even the government wants to build a temple for him, and many people even worship her as a god, believing that he can really talk to the gods. Everyone knows that besieging the governor's office is suspected of rebellion, but it is Such a sorceress is able to seduce hundreds of people to besiege the Governor's Mansion, folks, please ask yourself, is this just the sorceress' fault?"

People suddenly fell silent.

"We respect the sky, we respect our ancestors, and we must maintain a pious heart." Chu Huan's voice was not very loud, but he was full of spirit, and the voice spread from the top of the city, "But this does not mean that those crooked nonsense" Nonsense words can also "confuse" our minds, and we can't just copy what others say and become a tool for others to use. Last time, the witch could use everyone to surround the Governor's Mansion, so in the future, someone will use people to "confuse" people and use everyone to go Rebellion, will everyone be "bewitched" by others?"

"Today, I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone that although Xiguan has suffered disasters, as long as people are still there, it will not collapse." Chu Huan put his hands on the battlements, "I hope we can work together to rebuild our homeland , although this process is still very difficult and we will encounter many troubles, but with the belief in revitalizing Xiguan, we will surely be able to build a prosperous and peaceful homeland. The governor is very clear that I am new here, and my foundation is very shallow. And I am very young, many people will doubt whether I can really lead everyone out of the trough. To tell you the truth, I never thought that I can really do what I can’t, and I can really get everyone’s support and get out of the predicament together. But I will do my best to do what I should do." Pausing, scanning the crowd, he suddenly frowned, and his expression froze for a moment, but the expression was fleeting, and he looked away, and continued: "Some people may want to If you want me to leave here, I will make it clear here today. If some people with ulterior motives want to hide behind this governor, the governor will never have the slightest fear. Since the governor dares to come to Xiguan, he will I am not afraid that someone will trip me up. If I want this governor to leave Xiguan, there is only one possibility, and that is that the people here think that I, Chu Huan, are not worthy of being the governor of Xiguan. Official, call me a mediocre official, even if everyone doesn't drive me away, I don't have the face to stay here...!"

People looked at Chu Huan on the top of the wall, and no one could have imagined that the governor, who was a big official in the frontier, would say such words so frankly. After saying these words, many people only thought that the young governor was not It's not high above, the distance seems to be shortened a lot.

"Today, I won't let Goddess Ma jump down, but the death penalty is inevitable, and the crime of living is hard to forgive. She can no longer stay in Shuoquan, and she will be expelled from Shuoquan today." Give me and everyone a warning. We must not believe in those who "deceive" people with ulterior motives. Bewitching the people and creating rumors are the things I hate the most. I will try my best to lead everyone Eat enough and wear warm clothes, but at the same time, I am also here to tell you that the governor will never show mercy to those who deceive people's hearts. You folks may know that the imperial court is in the southeast to conquer Tianmen. I made an oath that Tianmen Dao will confuse people's hearts and poison the people, and this governor will kill Tianmen. However, in the territory of Xiguan, the governor will never allow them to exist. If one appears, one will be killed, one pair will appear, and one pair will be killed... Today, the governor has also set a rule here. , the first person to report, the investigation is true, and he will definitely be rewarded, but if someone with ulterior motives thinks that the governor is joking here, and wants to make trouble in Xiguan Road...!" He punched with his right hand, and punched On the battlements, the sound of Kerala resounded, and the stones on the battlements were cracked, and rubble and debris fell from the top of the city. Chu Huan's eyes were cold and sharp, "Then just give it a try!"
