The reborn emperor, you are dismissed

Chapter 173 Impossible Hope

Chapter 173 Impossible Hope
"No way?" Liu Wei said in surprise, "What can I do?"

His fingertips caressed the hilt engraved with dark patterns: "Your life, or something like that."

Everyone gasped, but they didn't quite understand what he meant.

"Don't understand?" He raised his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Now I have to ask Mr. Liu what he is hiding from us."

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, his eyes fluttered and he said: "I am an upright official, and I know everything about you, so there is nothing to hide."

Su Yingchun hesitated and said, "Cousin, don't you trust me?"

"How come! I, I..." Liu Wei turned his eyes away, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with tonight's thief."

He squinted his eyes: "Master Liu, I failed to take your life tonight, who knows who will be next time, if you don't tell what you know, let everyone know, and if something happens next time, you may not have such good luck Already!"

The Liu family had never seen his expression before, and they were all a little frightened.

Standing in the dark with hands behind his back, his robes fluttering, his brows are not angry and majestic, it is intimidating!

"Actually, Yangcheng has long been..." Liu Wei sat slumped on the ground, muttering, "I was given up."

Hearing this, even Liu Zhenzhen was full of doubts: "Cousin, what are you talking about?"

"From the day the illness appeared, I started to write notes and report them." Liu Wei smiled wryly, "But the capital never responded. Later, the people began to move out of Yangcheng. In order to keep them, I lied that the court had already Sending people over is just a long way away and you need to wait a little longer. This is really effective. After hearing this, many people put away their thoughts of leaving and stay here."

Liu An was shocked and said: "Wei'er, you clearly told us that the court could not send any manpower for the time being, so you asked us to help cover it up and delay it for a while."

"Yes, I even lied to you!" Liu Wei covered his face and shouted, "I'm afraid you will persuade me to give up!"

"But I don't want to give up, and I don't want to watch Yangcheng become an empty city! Although it is located in a remote location, I may not be able to make any achievements in my life, let alone be noticed by the emperor, but... I am the parent officer here, I... ..." The rough man cried bitterly, "It's too selfish! For such a reason, I watched the people being tortured repeatedly and gave them impossible hopes! I deserve to die!"

"Cousin..." Su Yingchun didn't know how to comfort her.

No one expected that what Liu Wei hid in his heart turned out to be such a secret.

Huangfu Yue shook her head helplessly, as worthy of being a family, this thought was ridiculously silly, but extremely sincere.

What selfishness is there, even his wealth and life are willing to take, just to defend a city.

"Have you ever thought that those notebooks might not have been sent to the capital at all?"

"How is it possible..." Liu Wei was stunned.

He chuckled: "You ignored the most likely thing."

Deception is inevitable in any dynasty, especially in such a remote place.

"Why?" Liu Wei couldn't figure it out, "This disease didn't lead to death, I thought it must be because the government didn't pay attention..."

"It is precisely because there is no dead person that we dare to do such a daring thing. After all, it does not involve human life, so it is easier to suppress." He looked at the vast night with sharp eyes, "As for the reason, we will always find out."

Things are getting more and more interesting.

"Then the thief?"

He twirled the dagger and snorted, "Ding has nothing to do with the person who stopped you."
