my unparalleled way

Chapter 1300 Countermeasures
"Si, I didn't do that."

After meeting Lin Si, Ye Hong's first words were not concealed at all.

And Lin Si's answer to him was also very direct.

"I know it's not you."

He didn't ask any details at all, nor did he ask about the process, nor did he suspect that Ye Hong was lying.

However, despite what he said, Ye Hong still couldn't let go.

"I failed to prevent this incident in advance. Shuangzeji is my defense zone. It should be my duty to protect the people there. This is my negligence."

Lin Si patted him on the shoulder, shook his head and said, "That's indeed your negligence, but it's more of the negligence of the officials in West Wu Prefecture. It should be their duty to protect the people there, so you don't have to blame yourself too much .”

"I never thought of taking revenge on the dry blue people..."

"I know, Second Brother is such an honest person, how could he do such a thing?" Lin Si smiled and pulled him to sit down, while Tang Xiaozhi hurriedly made a cup of tea for him.

"Oh, you can trust me so much, I really... Actually, I can't come up with any evidence at all."

Lin Si laughed: "Second brother has an accident, of course fourth brother has to help. Just let me handle this matter."

Seeing the relaxed expression on his face, Ye Hong was suddenly surprised: "Really? You already have an idea about this matter?"

If it were someone else, he wouldn't turn worry into joy so quickly, but Lin Si was different.

He and Lin Si have known each other for a long time. Whether it was the way he hijacked Yue Luoning back then or the fight against Nan Qi and Zixing together later, he has witnessed the magic of Lin Si with his own eyes.

In his eyes, the fourth brother is almost omnipotent, and there are almost no problems that he cannot solve.No one else can think of any predicament, but he can always break out easily.

Perhaps, Lian Qin was the same in the eyes of Rong Yu and others back then?

"It's hard to tell, but this matter is not complicated at all. After all, there have been similar things in the past."

"then?"

"Have you forgotten that Tianhe's black scarf was stolen back then? This incident made me smell familiar."

When Lin Si mentioned it, Ye Hongcai suddenly remembered what Lin Si had said after he returned from Tianhe. The black scarf bandits who were active in the borders of the four kingdoms of Tianhe in Yueguo, Qingchuan, Southern Qi, and looting everywhere were actually a branch of the Tianhe government. strength.

If Lin Si hadn't mentioned this result, they would never have thought of it.

The reason is very simple. The black scarf bandits have actually killed the people of Tianhe and looted the villages of Tianhe.

And the reason why they want to do this is to make people less suspicious of Tianhe Kingdom.

"Could it be that the Ganlan people did it themselves? How is it possible...they are the people of their own country, and the people there are the ones who are most against our Yue Kingdom, so they should be their own people!"

Lin Si hooked the corner of his mouth, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "For certain purposes, big shots can sacrifice anyone, as long as they think it's worth it."

"What can they get? Put the blame on us and make the common people hate us?"

"You're right, that's their purpose."

"However, this is too absurd. Ganlan has already been pacified by us, and even if the people resist, they can't make waves. Once the imperial court asks us to send troops to suppress it, it will only let those people die in vain..."

Yes, it is not so uncommon in the history of the mainland for people to revolt against the imperial court.

In so many countries, after so many dynasties, it is not surprising that there will be some stupid and senseless kings and courtiers, making the people miserable.

For thousands of years, there have indeed been small countries that have been overthrown because of this.No monarch is willing to see resistance everywhere in his own territory. Even if he can suppress it, it will seriously deplete the national power in the end.

But this time Ganlan is different. Although the people of Ganlan are clamoring to beat the Yue people back, they can't do it at all.

Even the Qianlan army was defeated by the Yue Kingdom, no matter how large the civil resistance was, it would not pose a threat to the Yue Kingdom army.The temporary rebel army lacked formal training, lacked masters, lacked weapons and armor, and lacked effective command.

If you really think about it, they are similar to the slave army before Yin Li established the Yu Yu Sect. Although there are numbers, their combat effectiveness is actually difficult to guarantee.

Perhaps Lianqin was right in saying something, the existence of practitioners has made the resistance in this world much less, and it has become much paler and weaker.

After all, practitioners don't have enough food and clothing, and most of them live well.They often don't appear in the rebel army, but appear opposite them.

Civilian uprisings can sometimes succeed, and the biggest reason is often that the imperial army has also been corrupted.Or the imperial army turned against the imperial court due to many complicated reasons. Otherwise, how could the army formed by the people spontaneously resist the imperial court?
But this time, the imperial army in Qianlan is the army of Yue Kingdom.

Their current strength is well preserved, and it is impossible for them to betray the Moon Kingdom and turn to the common people.

Finally, this time the public protests are unlikely to form a so-called uprising.Because the tragedy in Shuangzeji did not happen to them after all, they feel empathy now, and they are indeed very angry, but it will subside sooner or later, after all, the people still have to live.

This is different from those who were forced to resist because of the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes imposed by the imperial court, which made them unable to even eat and had no way of life.

Therefore, Ye Hong didn't understand the meaning of some people doing this, what could they gain?
It's impossible for them to drive the Yue people out of Ganlan because of this, right?

Lin Si sneered: "Even if we can't drive us away, it's enough to make Qian Lan mess up. That can at least hold us back and make us unable to attack the grasslands, Nanqi Tianhe and other countries."

Ye Hong said in surprise: "You mean, behind this incident, there are shadows from surrounding countries?"

"I can't say for sure now, but I can only say that the impact of this incident is what some people want to see. Judging the murderer often depends on who can benefit in the end."

In Lin Si's eyes, there are many possibilities for the murderer behind this tragedy.

It can be said that no matter whether it is a native of the country, or the surrounding Liunu Chongluo Grassland Southern Qi Zixing or even Tianhe Shenyan Chilou and other countries, they may be the murderer, and even the three factions of Tianwaitian cannot escape.

Because they all want to see turmoil within the Yue Kingdom, and the current result is in their favor.All in all, the suspicion of being a blue man is slightly less.

As for Yue Guo, he is actually a victim in this matter, isn't he?Neither Lin Si, Tang Xiaozhi nor Yue Luoning wanted to see the situation before them.

It's a pity that many people can't understand the things they can understand.Even if they thought of it, they would not believe it, because they had already established the conclusion they had drawn before, so how could it be so easy to overthrow it?
It wasn't until Ye Hong left that Tang Xiaozhi finally asked worriedly, "Can you really find the murderer?"

She may not have such a deep understanding of others, but she does know Lin Si.

If there is a clue, it is impossible for Lin Si to sit here safely.

"Don't worry, don't forget who we have to help."

"Who?"

"Shifanglou, they themselves are experts in this kind of thing. Others may not be able to find any clues about this matter, but they are different."

In the eyes of outsiders, the murder case of Shuangzeji is complicated and confusing, leaving almost no useful clues.

Lin Si knew very well that the dozens of survivors should have been deliberately left behind by the other party, just to get them to say the words 'the murderer was wearing the military uniform of the Moon Kingdom'.

Those who have the strength to do that must be practitioners, because there were more than ten local low-level monks among the victims, and even they couldn't escape, which shows the strength of those murderers.

It is really difficult for the government in the secular world to find the murderer. After all, those people may be thousands of miles away now, or even not in Qianlan territory at all.

But Shifanglou is different, they themselves are the best at committing crimes secretly and covering up their tracks afterwards.

Compared with them, the murderer this time is probably just a layman.

"Yes." Tang Xiaozhi's brows immediately relaxed, and she asked with a look of surprise: "Then Ruoruo will come this time? Is she used to living there? It's been a long time since I saw her, I miss her so much. "

When mentioning Shifanglou, she immediately thought of Ruoruo.

If Ruoruo misses her, why doesn't she miss Ruoruo?Although there are many people around her, the person Ruoruo has been closest to her in the past few years also has an irreplaceable position in her heart.

Now that she left suddenly and didn't show up again for several months, Tang Xiaozhi always felt empty in her heart.

Lin Si scratched his chin in embarrassment, thinking how could that woman be uncomfortable in Shifanglou?

"She's in the headquarters of Shifanglou, which is far away from here. You also know that such a large assassin organization has so many things to do every day. She is too busy to get away."

"It's all your fault, she's about to leave the Shifang Building, yet you still want her to sink in again!" Her little face was full of displeasure and anger, and she had been brooding over this matter.

Ruoruo's return to the Shifang Building had been hidden from her from the very beginning, and Ruoruo didn't even say goodbye to her at that time.Now that she has become the principal of Shifanglou, there is no chance of turning back.

Thinking of this, she beat Lin Si again in frustration, Ruoruo was brought back to Shifanglou by this nasty guy!

It's no wonder she left. Letting her go back to the Shifang Building is like fish entering water and birds entering the forest. She didn't have the slightest hesitation at that time, okay?

However, Lin Si only dared to slander such words in his heart. He would not say such things in front of Tang Xiaozhi.

After some squabbling, Tang Xiaozhi became depressed again.

"Then what should we do before you find the murderer? There are protests in many places now, and I'm afraid more things will happen."

Tang Xiaozhi was indeed smart, but she still couldn't be as calm as Lin Si in the face of such sudden changes.

"It's very simple, continue to appease the people. When they besiege the city lord's mansion, let the guards block it. If they sit quietly, let them sit. When they go on a hunger strike, put food beside them, whether they like it or not. Then continue to explain publicly, We did not do this, whether they believe it or not, and listen to it or not."

"Is this okay? What if they do something more radical?"

"Real people are very busy, don't worry. And this is the only thing we can do. If we fight against those people, it will only make this matter worse. And this is precisely the second priority of those people. The first step is to stir up conflicts between us and the Qianlan people. Once we really take action against the people, even if we find out the truth about the Shuangzeji murder case, it will not help the matter, and the incident will become irreversible by then."

Tang Xiaozhi pondered for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement: "Then if we don't move now, we are actually trying to make them anxious?"

"That's right, after they don't see the results they expected, they will be unable to hold back sooner or later."
