"In other words, it was a wise decree issued by the first emperor."

First Emperor?

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan was taken aback for a second. The alien war was fought during the late Emperor's tenure. How could Qiaopifu like the late Emperor if he spoke so boldly?

He was subconsciously curious, so he didn't attack right away.

Just listen to the tree continue:

"I heard that after the Alien War, when a certain civil servant almost killed himself on the Golden Temple, the first emperor issued a famous decree."

Qiao Mu said seriously:

"A group of ministers, officials and people who can stab the widow's fault face to face will be punished with Ling Chi; those who write a letter to remonstrate with the widow will be punished with cannonballs;

"I heard that before the decree was issued, it was after the Alien War. At that time, all the ministers were furious and admonished, and there was a crowd."

"After the decree was issued, it was advanced from time to time; after a few months, even though they wanted to speak, no one could enter. Because those who dared to speak either died, or they resigned and returned home due to illness."

"I have to say that the late emperor's decree is actually quite wise."

Qiao Mu also glanced at the surrounding policemen who had a strong desire to survive, and praised:

"Even if you are convicted for your words, it won't harm the innocent people around you, at most it will be Ling Chi."

"Such a decree allows a man of insight like me to speak freely without any scruples, without fear of hurting others and avoiding future worries. It's wonderful!"

Chu Weiwei's face was covered with black lines.

Is this decree of the first emperor to let people speak freely?

Is this person's brain different from other people's?

And the other policemen in soap clothes beside them also changed their expressions slightly.

They noticed the gaze of the new head catcher just now.

This is to remind them... not to be afraid.

I took out the words of the first emperor and made up the truth for myself first.Even if Qiu Hou asks to be executed, or even Ling Chi dies, it will not affect your lives.

This newly appointed chief catcher seems to be reckless and reckless, bold and reckless, it seems that there are subtleties in the rough...

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan was also slightly moved.

He was not a fool, and he understood what Qiao Mu said inside and outside the meaning.

Although this decree was issued by the first emperor, after Emperor Yonghe succeeded to the throne, he did not expressly cancel it...

He brought up the words from the time of the first emperor, so even if he, the current emperor, were to punish him for the crime of Qiaopifu, it would not be good for others.

Like Wang Shanhe back then, aren't you afraid of death?

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan frowned slightly, he felt something was wrong.

In places like teahouses and restaurants, there are indeed many people pointing out Jiangshan, but there is a degree of pointing out Jiangshan, and it will not be too much.

And this Jopiff almost pointed at the emperor's nose and scolded him for being cowardly....

"Could it be that he has seen through my identity and is deliberately giving me eye drops?" Emperor Yonghe frowned, realizing that the matter was not simple.

Chapter 70 Chapter 66

The emperor's private visit in his micro-clothes was naturally no small matter, and someone specially assigned to it tried to cover it up, which cannot be seen through by the naked eye.

And beside him, there was also Chu Xing, a high-ranking warrior who had embarked on the way of refining gods, guarding him.

The way of refining the gods is to cultivate the intuition in the dark.

If this Qiaopifu harbored malice, the Chu guards beside him would soon notice it, not like this now.

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan sat there frowning, with thousands of thoughts in his heart.

In his heart, he still couldn't make an assertion about Jopiff's actions. He had to say that this was another brave warrior who was not afraid of death.

It reminded him of when he was young, he witnessed the demeanor of ministers represented by Wang Shanhe going to court to die.

And the tea drinkers around had already disappeared, and the surrounding tables were empty.

And Qiao Mu didn't seem to notice it, and was still drinking tea as if nothing had happened.

He squinted at his surroundings, and saw that the surroundings were empty, and there was no sound, but he felt more comfortable and relaxed.

No one around is good, no one around him, no one will affect his performance.

A lone wolf is never afraid.

At this time, the middle-aged man surnamed Yan who had been sullen also spoke:

"It's rare for you to speak up without fear of death, but it doesn't mean you're right. After all, you don't understand military affairs. Different people are strong and big people are weak. Naturally, some things can only be compromised."

Qiao Mu continued, "It's a common sense in the world that you will be beaten if you lag behind. If you have no other choice, you can only compromise. However, whether to compromise is to hide your strength and bide your time, or to completely hide and become a small player. These are two different things."

"The emperor's compromise is easy to say, but it is the people below who pay the price."

"Emperor Dayan claims to be ordered by heaven to act as herdsmen on behalf of heaven. But if he really regards the world as his family's property, regards the people as cattle and horses, regards them as property resources at hand that can please others, and can be given away at will, then this Is the world ruled by Emperor Dayan's family, or the people of Kyushu?"

When Qiao Mu said this, he was already getting better.

Originally, he just suspected that the middle-aged man surnamed Yan was a good character, and wanted to trick him into talking about the emperor, so that he could make a fortune and die.

Now he is thinking of his life-and-death acquaintance surnamed Guo.

At first, he felt that Guo Yan, the lord of the city, was a scheming man with deep plans, and he was a very difficult person.

Later, he discovered that Guo Yan, who saw his parents and children being killed, could still hold back his hands.

In the end, he discovered that... this person seemed to dote on his only son, but in fact he valued his own life the most, and didn't want to take any risks.

This is probably the biggest reason why Guo Yan compromised and negotiated all the way, and refused to do it with real swords and guns.

So, he was killed by Qiao Mumang.

I just don't know if this Great Yan court is another Guo Yan who seems to be scheming, but is actually afraid of death?

After he finished speaking, the guard Chu at the next table began to tremble slightly, and he was trembling with fear.

And the middle-aged man surnamed Yan was also trembling slightly, he was trembling with anger.

If Qiao Mu was questioning the weakness of Emperor Yonghe and the late Emperor before, then he is now questioning the foundation of the Great Yan Dynasty.

If Emperor Dayan regards the world as belonging to one family, then pleasing strangers is nothing more than giving the property of the family to the villains. Although it hurts, it is not really cutting flesh after all.

The people are poor and the government is exhausted, but the emperor is still the emperor above ten thousand people.

"Great rebellion..."

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan is already a little speechless. When he was young, he also saw ministers who risked their lives to speak up, but those ministers were disregarding life and death, and their words were still a little bit measured. How can there be such a person in front of him, it is simply rampant... ..

But Qiao Mu was still very calm.

He raised a cup of tea on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat.

Since crossing, all he saw and known in Yancheng was full of depression and dilapidation.

"In recent years, whenever there is a natural disaster, there must be famine."

"The small town has ten rooms and five empties, and the people are displaced and sell their cattle, turning grass into bandits."

"A dog eats people and doesn't know how to check it, and a dog who eats it doesn't know how to let it out."

"These are the prices paid by the people." Speaking of this, Qiao Mu looked at the middle-aged man surnamed Yan suspiciously:

"And why are you so excited? With some money and status, you think you are not a commoner, but a meat eater? Are you a little crooked?"

Seeing this person's old-fashioned tone and condescending tone, Qiao Mu guessed that this person might be a bureaucrat in Heyang Prefecture, but he didn't think too much about it.

After all, even if the other party is a bureaucrat in the city, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than being convicted for his words, and nothing more than death.

What's there to be afraid of?

Having said that, the teahouse was full of dead silence.

Most of the tea drinkers who were still listening to books enthusiastically had already left.

And Jiang Chen, the storyteller with a sword on the stage, was also speechless.

Boss, how about you come up and talk about it?

He knew that Qiao Sen, who assassinated the city lord of Yancheng, had become a wanted criminal by the court, and he was taking a certain risk in telling the story, but he didn't expect that an ordinary audience in the audience was much more vigorous than him.

The story he told was nothing more than being chased away, but the tea guest below was talking about losing his head.

at this time.

At the door of the teahouse came a middle-aged headhunter in soapy clothing. He hurried in, not aware of the strange atmosphere in the teahouse.

"Captain Qiao, why are you still here? Are you listening to books in this teahouse?" He glanced at the speechless sword-speaking storyteller on the stage, frowning slightly.

"The chief arrester has something to call, follow me quickly."

"Qian Butou? I just passed by the teahouse to take a rest." Qiao Mu smiled and stood up.

He thought to himself, what he said just now was probably enough to kill him three or five times.

So he was satisfied and in a good mood.

Before leaving, he still cheerfully said goodbye to the middle-aged man surnamed Yan at the next table:

"I'm leaving, I don't care about you."

"Actually, you are also lucky. I am now an older, middle-aged person who understands the truth of living in harmony with light."

"If you have met my violent temper when I was young, this matter will not be so easy to settle."

After finishing speaking, Qiao Mu walked away with Qian BuTou.

At the end, the guard Chu next to him really lived in Bengbu.

This person still thinks that he didn't set the flames high enough, and before he left, did he want to stir up the emperor's anger?

He couldn't help raising his head, and met Qiao Mu's eyes for a moment, but then left immediately.

After Qiao Mu left, the atmosphere in the teahouse became more and more silent.

The middle-aged man surnamed Yan and the guard Chu got up one after another and left one after the other.

The former straightened his back slightly, with a self-contained momentum.

"Chu Xing, what do you think? Did that person know my identity and speak in front of me on purpose?" he asked.

"this...."

Chu Huwei was sweating on his forehead, so he could only bite the bullet and say:

"Then Joepiff is a sixth-rank martial artist, with plenty of energy and blood and no loss."

"Besides, before he finally left, he noticed my gaze. He indeed seemed to have embarked on the way of refining the gods, but the 'god' was still weak."

"A sixth-rank martial artist has suffered serious injuries and his soul has been damaged. It is indeed not groundless."

"And as for whether he has the vision to see through His Majesty's identity...I guess he still doesn't have one."

Emperor Yonghe nodded slightly after hearing this, but just walked in front silently.

"Then, try again? Ordinary headhunters wouldn't say those words."

"He was recommended by Wang Shanhe. Do his words represent the opinion of the former Minister of the Ministry of Punishment?" Emperor Yonghe said to himself.

The atmosphere became more dull.

With years of experience in serving Emperor Yonghe, Chu Xing knew in his heart that this His Majesty probably had murderous intentions in his heart, but he was still hesitating and hadn't made a complete decision.

.........................

Including Qiao Mu, many head catchers were summoned to the gate of the yamen.

The chief catcher of Heyang Fucheng is a sassy woman in her early 30s, squinting her red phoenix eyes, perhaps because she noticed that Qiao Mu was absent-minded, and glanced at Qiao Mu from time to time when she was talking.

The chief arrester of this prefecture city is talking about a strange case that just happened, called the case of impermanent monsters.

But Qiao Mu was indeed a little absent-minded.

Because he will be in prison soon, and it is not impossible to think that he will die because of it.

He said what happened in the teahouse in front of the official surnamed Yan. It is estimated that as long as the news spreads, he, the head arrester who has just arrived, will be convicted and sent to prison for his words.
