Chapter 127: Opinions From All Sides Rise (8000)
As the young man read out this sentence, his hand holding the letter trembled slightly, and his brows furrowed.
Although his face did not change much, it can be seen from his brows that the young man's mentality seemed to be wrong at this time.
After a long while, the young man let go of his hand, took a fire starter and ignited the letter.
The postmen around saw this situation and looked at it from time to time, but soon looked away.
"Alas, how could it be involved in Xu Bai's affairs?" The young man thought to himself.
The rumors about Xu Bai in the world now are no longer as unknown as before.
Rescuing King Shengyou and solving the Feng Shui situation, these two alone have made him famous.
Even the Jiantian Division has noticed it.
But he has become famous, but he has not violated the law. On the contrary, each item is in line with the laws of the Great Chu State.
Not long ago, His Majesty the Emperor actually asked Xu Bai to go to the capital and receive a heavy reward.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xu Bai was very important in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor, and he would probably be given important positions during this visit to Beijing.
These were not the most important things. The most important thing was that he felt that he had taken over a hot potato.
His trip was to solve the case of the extermination of the Zimu Mansion.
But the letter he received at the beginning said that this case was related to Xu Bai.
Although there was no substantial evidence, with this letter, he would have to check with Xu Bai when he entered the Zimu Mansion.
"Headache." The young man Song De rubbed his forehead, looking helpless.
He was the chief of the Jiantian Division, in charge of the affairs of the mansion. As long as it was related to the rivers and lakes, and to demons and weirdness, he had to take care of it.
In fact, it didn't matter to investigate a mansion postmaster, but Xu Bai was at the peak of his popularity, so it was difficult to deal with.
"I just hope that this Lord Xu can be reasonable. After all, they are all in the officialdom, so they should give him some face." Song De said secretly.
It was getting late, so he ate something and didn't stop. He rode on a fast horse and rushed towards Zimu Mansion.
...
The next day.
Xu Bai got up early, had breakfast outside, and returned to the room to continue to work on the progress bar.
Coincidentally, the person behind the scenes seemed to have disappeared and there had been no movement.
I thought there would be at least some trouble, but now it seems that nothing happened.
"He must be holding back a big move." Xu Bai leaned on the recliner, looking at the "Secret Art of Mechanical Skills" in his hand, thinking in his heart.
The calmer the water surface, the more undercurrents are surging.
The other party would not easily let go of this opportunity, so the result was obvious, and he must be looking for a chance to kill with one strike.
"The longer it takes, the better it will be for me." Xu Bai looked at the progress bar slowly growing and thought with satisfaction.
It would be best to delay it for a month or so, so that he can work on a few more books. By then, his strength will increase rapidly, and he can kill as many as he wants. Isn't it wonderful?
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Just as Xu Bai was thinking this, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" Xu Bai put down the book in his hand, looked at the door, stood up from the chair, and pressed the handle of the ghost-head knife at the same time.
"It's me, Ji Xiaojian, is Lord Xu free?"
Ji Xiaojian's voice came from outside the door.
Xu Bai's mouth corners slightly raised, finally coming.
He put away the "Secret Art of Jiqiao", picked up the fake "Hundred Steps Through the Willow" given by Ji Xiaojian, held it in one hand, walked to the door, and opened it.
Outside the door, there stood a strange man, with a longbow on his back, wrapped in cloth. If you didn't know it was a longbow in advance, you really couldn't tell it from the outline.
"Is this your true face?" Xu Bai glanced at Ji Xiaojian and said lightly.
"This time I came to see Lord Xu, of course I met him with my true face, I dare not hide it." Ji Xiaojian bowed and saluted, but his eyes looked at the Hundred Steps Through the Willow in Xu Bai's hand, and a glimmer of light flashed secretly.
He is watching!
Xu Bai is reading this fake book!
This means that Xu Bai is not far from being possessed!
Ji Xiaojian suppressed his joy and acted very naturally, saying: "Sir, I came here this time to ask you if there is anything else that Xiaojian needs to do. As long as you say a word, Xiaojian will definitely die!"
Xu Bai laughed. He is not stupid, how could he not see Ji Xiaojian's intention?
This guy found this reason just to see if he was learning "A Hundred Steps Through the Willow". Now that he saw what he wanted to see, he was of course satisfied.
Details, what are details.
Xu Bai had thought of it a long time ago, so he had already changed to "A Hundred Steps Through the Willow" before opening the door.
"Nothing, don't blame yourself for what happened that day. Since I have accepted the benefits, it's over." Xu Bai said.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaojian hurriedly pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you, Lord Xu, for your magnanimity. Since there is nothing else, I will leave now and will not disturb you."
"Yes." Xu Bai said indifferently, which was considered as an agreement.
Ji Xiaojian took his leave and left.
After Xu Bai closed the door, he sat back in his chair and continued to flip through the "Secret Art of Mechanical Skills" and keep reading the progress bar.
As for what happened just now, it was just an episode, and he didn't care at all.
The other party had already seen what he wanted to see, so next, it all depended on their reaction.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai didn't think too much about it, and calmed down and continued to read the progress bar.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The knock on the door sounded again.
Xu Bai put away the "Secret Art of Mechanical Skills" again, frowned and asked, "Who?"
There are so many things to do today, so he can't keep reading properly.
Outside the door, a strange male voice sounded.
"Master Xu, I am Song De, the Chief of the Tianjian Division, and I have something important to discuss with you."
Tianjian Division?
Chief?
Xu Bai touched his chin and thought to himself, "Sure enough, it's the Jiantiansi who's here."
Yesterday when I was having dinner, I heard passers-by talking about someone coming to deal with these things. Now it seems that his guess was right. It was indeed the Jiantiansi who came to deal with it.
He didn't have much dealings with the Jiantiansi. To be precise, he only dealt with Wuhua.
As for the Tie Suanxian, he was just a dead man. There was nothing to talk about.
Xu Bai walked to the door, opened the door, and saw a young man with a long sword on his waist.
Speaking of playing with swords, Xu Bai is also a good player. At first glance, he felt that this sword was not simple.
It looks like just an ordinary long sword, but there is a faint smell of blood.
"This person is not a simple character, he is a master." Xu Bai said to himself.
Many times, judging people depends on intuition, especially at the first meeting.
Xu Bai's intuition is very accurate, especially in terms of using swords.
Song De was indeed as Xu Bai thought, with a high level of attainment in swordsmanship. He also looked at the ghost-head knife on Xu Bai's waist and said in his heart, "What a good knife."
The ghost-head knife was obtained from the Tiger Village, and it was actually not a very good thing. After all, how good a treasure could that ninth-rank village chief have?
It was mainly the person who used the knife.
Xu Bai stood in front of Song De, but gave Song De a feeling.
The person in front of him was like a sharp blade hidden in a scabbard. As long as it was unsheathed, there would be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Song Sizheng is here, it is a great honor for my humble home. Please come in." Xu Bai stepped aside to let Song De in.
Song De nodded slightly and stepped into the room.
There was no conflict between them for the time being, and they were very polite to each other. This was a very normal thing.
After all, not everyone is like a lunatic, tit-for-tat when they meet.
But Song De knew very well that what he said next might change the situation.
"Lord Xu, Song came here this time because I have something extremely important to tell you." Song De saw Xu Bai pouring water, and his mouth twitched slightly.
Is this really the ruthless Xu Bai who is widely circulated in the martial arts world?
"Drink water first, and then talk slowly." Xu Bai smiled and handed over the teacup.
Song De had no choice but to drink a sip of water, and then he told the whole story.
Xu Bai had been listening, and the smile on his face did not change, but became more and more intense.
Song De felt a sense of hair standing on end, and subconsciously tightened the handle of the long knife.
"Lord Song, according to your suggestion, how should we deal with it?" Xu Bai asked.
Ha...
Frame up.
What kind of shit and despicable things are used.
If you can't beat them head-on, just do this.
He really didn't expect the other party to do this.
Song De put down his teacup and said with a wry smile, "Master Xu, you may have to endure some injustice and stay in the jail of the government office. As long as I investigate it, it will be fine. In the jail, I will also treat you well and never let you suffer any injustice."
"In the jail?" Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "Master Song, let's not talk about other things. The other party just wrote a letter. I said it was a frame-up. Isn't it fair?"
"I know what Master Xu said is very true, but according to the rules of the Jiantian Division, this matter involves too many aspects, and I am also doing things according to the rules." Song De said helplessly, "Master Xu, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter as soon as possible and won't let you stay for a long time."
After that, Song De began to organize his words again, as if he wanted to persuade Xu Bai with other reasons.
But before Song De could continue, Xu Bai interrupted him.
"Okay."
The simple answer made Song De's breathing stagnate.
This...
Agreed so quickly?
I prepared so many excuses, but none of them worked.
"This is Mr. Song's official business. We are all officials in Da Chu, so I naturally support it. However, Mr. Song needs to promise me one thing." Xu Bai pointed to the wooden box containing the nameless sword scripture and said, "I want to take the sword and these things."
Song De was overjoyed when he heard this, "As long as Mr. Xu is willing, these are not a problem."
"Then let's go." Xu Bai picked up the bag without any hesitation.
He had already thought it through.
Since the other party used this trick, the purpose could not be so simple.
There must be a follow-up.
He is using the trick against the opponent, so let's use the trick to the end.
Go inside and wait first, and then fight back.
"Okay, Lord Xu is really a straightforward person." Song De walked to the door, opened it, and bowed and said, "Please!"
Xu Bai was not polite and walked out directly.
Song De followed behind without saying a word.
The two left the inn and walked on the bustling street, attracting a lot of attention.
After all, they both carried knives. Although it is not uncommon for people in the martial arts world to carry knives in the Great Chu Kingdom, the temperament of these two people makes people feel scared at a glance, so many people are curious and quickly retract their eyes after taking a look.
The two walked quickly all the way, and there were a lot of conversations during the period.
"Speaking of which, Lord Xu is also good at using a knife."
"No, no, I wonder who Lord Song learned from?"
"Tian Dao Lou, a tradition that specializes in using a knife. Although I am not talented, I have a position in it. If Lord Xu has anything to do in the future, just let me know."
"In that case, I won't be polite."
In the martial arts world, one's strength matters, while in the officialdom, one's personal connections matter.
A martial arts person who enters the Jiantian Division is considered half an official, and Song De is also very proficient in this aspect.
The two chatted and soon arrived at the government office.
The government office of Zimu Mansion is much more luxurious than that of Yunlai Mansion. After all, the prosperity here is much better than that of Yunlai Mansion.
When the two arrived at Zimu Mansion, they saw a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance standing at the door.
The middle-aged man saw Xu Bai and the other two coming, and he stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Hello, Lord Xu, Lord Song."
Song De hurriedly introduced, "This is the governor of Zimu Mansion, Governor Zhou. The current grandeur of Zimu Mansion is all due to Governor Zhou's contribution."
Xu Bai's eyes lit up, and he also bowed, saying, "Hello, Governor Zhou."
In the Great Chu State, civil officials are naturally highly valued. Many civil officials look down on the Heavenly Monitoring Department, but there is always an exception.
Of course, Governor Zhou's polite look, it is hard to say whether it is on the surface or in his heart.
But as for face-saving, you do it and I do it, and Xu Bai will do it too.
"Lord Song is really flattering. All of this is the gift of His Majesty." When Governor Zhou said the word "Your Majesty", he bowed in the direction of the capital, showing great respect.
"How about, Lord Xu, pick a room?" Governor Zhou blinked.
To be honest, it was a bit awkward for a middle-aged man with a dignified manner to make such a move.
Xu Bai laughed and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Zhou."
He looked like he didn't want to be in prison. I'm afraid people would believe him if he said he was traveling.
"This way, please." Lord Zhou raised his hand and led the way.
Xu Bai and Song De followed behind, and soon they came to a cell.
"This is what I arranged for Lord Xu." Lord Zhou pointed to a room and said.
Looking at this room, Xu Bai's mouth twitched slightly.
All kinds of furniture were complete, and even the bed was covered with a brand new mattress. If it weren't for the surrounding walls, it would really be an extremely complete bedroom.
Zhou Fuling saw what Xu Bai was thinking, and said with a smile: "Since Lord Xu and Lord Yun are close friends, he is naturally my friend too. Unfortunately, I didn't know that Lord Xu came to Zimu Mansion, otherwise I would have treated him well. Don't worry, Lord Xu, I will never let you suffer any grievances here."
Xu Bai said with a frown: "So Lord Zhou and Brother Yun know each other."
"More than knowing each other." Zhou Fuling said with a face full of shame: "I have reached my current position at this age, but Lord Yun is a genius. When we were in the capital, we met by chance. He helped me a lot, and we also established a relationship at that time."
It is said that it is easier to get things done if you have someone in the court. As a person with connections, Xu Bai has experienced it.
Walking into the cell, Xu Bai lay down on the chair, feeling the softness, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou is really troublesome."
Mr. Zhou laughed and said: "Of course, you two, I still have some official business, so I won't bother you now."
Anyone who can be a magistrate has a good eye, and naturally knows that Xu Bai did not come to the cell for no reason, so he found a reason and left directly to make room for the two.
"Goodbye, Mr. Zhou."
After Mr. Zhou left, Xu Bai looked at Song De and said: "Mr. Song, I hope it will be faster."
What is faster? Although he didn't say it clearly, Song De understood the meaning.
"Mr. Xu, don't worry, I'll check it now." Song De didn't hesitate, and left directly after saying it.
Watching Song De's back disappear, Xu Bai's smile gradually faded.
This person behind the scenes is really smart, but here, it's no different from the inn, and he can still work on the progress bar in his hand.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai took out the "Secret Art of Mechanical Skills" and continued reading...
The room was bright, and the progress bar was slowly growing.
...
Xu Bai himself didn't take the matter of imprisonment seriously, but the news spread.
Jiqiao Pavilion, in a room full of traps.
"What!" Ji Pavilion Master stood up suddenly and said, "You said that Lord Xu was imprisoned!"
Ji Xiaoshan said bitterly, "It is said that he was taken away by Jiantiansi because of the recent bloody case."
"Isn't there evidence provided by my Jiqiao Pavilion?" Ji Pavilion Master said puzzledly.
"Dad, we only provided evidence from five families, and the Miao family did not have it, and it was Xiaojian who did it." Ji Xiaoshan said.
As soon as this sentence came out, Ji Pavilion Master fell into deep thought.
After a moment, Ji Pavilion Master raised his head and said, "Tell the adults from the Jiantian Division that it was Ji Xiaojian who did it, and it has nothing to do with Jiqiao Pavilion."
Ji Xiaoshan was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted and understood what his father meant: "Dad, do you mean to put Xiaojian in jail as well?"
Ji Pavilion Master nodded and said, "Yes, since Xiaojian has betrayed us, we will get him out. He is on that side, and it's just right to see what they are doing."
"But if the other party doesn't care..." Ji Xiaoshan hesitated.
"If we don't care, it means that the other party has given up this chess piece, and it doesn't matter whether we die early or late." Ji Pavilion Master said slowly: "Although we have attached ourselves to Lord Xu, we can't just sit and wait for death. We must help Lord Xu complete this trick. If the other party doesn't give up Ji Xiaojian, then... Lord Xu's chance will come."
Ji Xiaoshan understood and nodded in agreement. He remembered another thing and said, "Another family was also wiped out. It was said that Lord Xu did it."
"Don't care!" Ji Pavilion Master waved his hand and said, "Since Lord Xu has gone in, he must have some ideas. Don't care for the time being. Just recognize the Miao family and don't disrupt Lord Xu's plan."
"Yes!" Ji Xiaoshan bowed and said, "I'll do it now."
After that, Ji Xiaoshan left directly.
Ji Pavilion Master looked at the direction where Ji Xiaoshan left and sighed silently.
Things seemed to be getting complicated, and he didn't know how to proceed.
"I hope that Lord Xu will be able to turn danger into safety. My Jiqiao Pavilion will think of a way to help Lord Xu in the subsequent plan."
In the room, the voice of the head of the Jiqiao Pavilion became firm.
...
Not only the Jiqiao Pavilion was moving, but at this moment, by a hidden lake.
The man in the bamboo hat was fishing.
With his face covered, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and at this moment, these eyes were slightly closed.
After a while, the fishing rod shook, the fishing line trembled, the man in the bamboo hat opened his eyes, and then raised the fishing rod with both hands.
A fat grass carp jumped out of the water, biting the fishhook tightly, swinging in the air.
"Snap!"
The man in the bamboo hat put away the fishing rod, put the grass carp into the fish basket, looked at the half basket of fish in it, and shook his head.
"Is it really as easy for anglers in this world to fish as fishing?"
There was a hint of doubt in his words, but there was no one around, and he was obviously asking and answering himself.
After about half an incense stick of time, a man in black slowly appeared next to the man in the bamboo hat.
"Sir, Xu Bai did not have any conflict with Song De. He went to the cell naturally."
"Oh?" The man in the bamboo hat was slightly stunned, then put the fishing rod aside, pondered for a moment, walked back and forth a few steps, and then said: "It seems that Xu Bai is not as rumored in the rivers and lakes, only knowing how to kill people with a knife. Since he went in peacefully, let's add fuel to the fire."
The man in black did not speak, but just stood respectfully beside him, with his hands hanging on both sides, waiting for the next order of the man in the bamboo hat.
"So many bloody cases have happened this year, and now Xu Bai has become a suspect. You find a way to provoke the remaining families and let them put pressure on Jiantiansi." The man in the bamboo hat said.
The man in black hesitated when he heard this, as if he had something to say, but he didn't dare to say it.
"I know what you want to say. You mean that these families have nothing to do with us and are not easy to mobilize. In fact, they can be mobilized." The man in the bamboo hat hung the bait on the hook and said slowly.
"Several big families were bloodbathed, and other families must be in danger. They also learned that Xu Bai might be the murderer. They joined forces to put pressure on the Jiantian Division and would not violate the laws of the Great Chu."
"And you are worried about another thing, that is, the Jiantian Division will not care. You don't know that sometimes, the role of rumors is beyond imagination."
"This step is to disrupt Song De's direction. The next step is that we can turn around a lot of things in our free time."
Speaking of this, the man in the bamboo hat was very satisfied, as if he was complacent because of his plan.
"Yes! I will do it now." The man in black did not say anything, and did not dare to disturb the man in the bamboo hat's self-entertainment. He said goodbye and left directly.
The man in the bamboo hat returned to normal and continued to fish leisurely.
But before he caught a fish, another man in black appeared.
"Report! Ji Xiaojian was captured by Ji Xiaoshan and has been sent to Song De. Jiqiao Pavilion admitted that the Miao family was killed by Ji Xiaojian and it has nothing to do with Xu Bai and Jiqiao Pavilion." Another man in black shouted.
"What?" Upon hearing this, the man in the bamboo hat cracked the fishing rod in his hand, and his tone became unfriendly: "Only recognize the Miao family?"
"Yes." The man in black bowed.
The man in the bamboo hat fell silent.
The surroundings were quiet, and the lake seemed like a pool of stagnant water.
After a moment, the man in the bamboo hat shook his head.
"I don't understand. If Jiqiao Pavilion helps Xu Bai, then they should recognize everything. After all, I have destroyed another family before."
"The current approach of Jiqiao Pavilion looks more like self-preservation. Do they want to give up Xu Bai?"
He muttered to himself, as if he had fallen into a bottleneck.
The other party's operations came one after another, which made him a little overwhelmed.
After a long time, the man in the bamboo hat returned to normal.
"Send someone to hint to Ji Xiaojian that we will save him, and then find an opportunity to kill him."
In any case, it is right to kill Ji Xiaojian, so as not to miss anything and bring disaster upon ourselves.
"Yes!" The new man in black left.
The man in the bamboo hat sighed as he looked at the fishing rod that had turned into wreckage.
"No matter what, I must kill Xu Bai."
The voice of the man in the bamboo hat rang out by the lake.
...
Xu Bai, who was being watched by everyone, was still leisurely working on the progress bar, as if nothing had happened.
There is a saying that goes, wait and see.
Xu Bai is doing this now, which can both increase the progress bar and make the other party rack their brains, so why not?
Looking at the progress bar in front of him slowly growing, Xu Bai's mouth corners gradually rose.
"It's another beautiful day."
...
The next day.
Footsteps were heard outside the cell.
Song De walked in, dragging a corpse in his hand.
Xu Bai heard the noise, and when he looked over, he found that it was Ji Xiaojian's corpse.
"What's going on?" He frowned.
This Ji Xiaojian was still alive a few days ago, how come he disappeared after one day of absence?
"Last night, Jiqiao Pavilion escorted him here. He admitted the Miao family's affairs, but the other family did not admit it. I interrogated him all night, but there was no movement. As a result, he died in the morning. He died of poisoning." Song De said with a gloomy face.
Such a big mess happened in his hands, which was really a slap in the face.
Having been in the Jiantian Division for so long, he has never been slapped in the face like this. It would be a lie if he was not angry.
"So that's it." Xu Bai touched his chin, thinking.
He instantly understood the deep meaning of Jiqiao Pavilion.
This was to use Ji Xiaojian to test the other party's details, and only admitting one Miao family was to avoid disrupting his plan to go to prison.
However, it seems that the plan did not work. The other party reacted quickly and acted decisively. Almost at the moment of the incident, Ji Xiaojian was killed.
"Sir Xu, tell me the truth, is this matter particularly complicated?" Song De said helplessly.
He always felt that things were not so simple, and Xu Bai must have a huge secret.
If this is the case, how should he go? This is the most important thing.
When you are in the Tianshi, you must have some vision. If you go the wrong way, you may be on the wrong road.
Xu Bai raised his mouth and said slowly: "In fact, it is not very difficult. You really want to know, even at the cost of your life?"
Song De was slightly stunned, and soon understood that this matter was definitely not something he could know, and hurriedly said: "No, no, forget it."
He knew that in this day and age, it is better to ask less, so as to live longer.
"Okay, Lord Song, you should follow your ideas and don't make too many changes. In addition, Ji Xiaojian was poisoned by someone in your place. I think you have to investigate it carefully." Xu Bai reminded.
Song De nodded quickly and prepared to turn around and leave, but before he took two steps, he stopped again, turned around, and patted his head: "I almost forgot the most important thing."
As he said, he walked closer.
"Brother Xu, now in Zimu Mansion, all the major families have joined forces to put pressure on me, saying that I should severely punish the murderer. What do you think about this?"
"Pressure?" Xu Bai raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "This guy is playing with public opinion?"
He saw that this was a typical act of using public opinion to mislead Song De.
But if you ask him what he thinks, he has no opinion.
This matter is just the beginning, how can we know the other party's subsequent plans?
But...
It's not that there is no response.
Xu Bai's eyes lit up slightly, and he said: "Please ask Lord Zhou to come over for me."
Song De was full of confusion, and he didn't understand what Xu Bai was thinking, but he still did it and left directly.
After a while, Zhou Fuling was taken into the cell by Song De.
I heard his voice before I saw him.
"Hahaha, is it because he has been here for a long time and is too lonely? Can I go to Chunyu Pavilion and find some people to relieve Lord Xu's boredom?"
"Can it be like this?" Xu Bai's eyes lit up.
Freeloader!
No one can refuse free stuff.
But when I think about the current situation, I decided to give up this plan for the time being.
"Ahem, we are all elegant people, how can we linger in places of entertainment." Xu Bai said seriously: "I asked Lord Zhou to come here today because I want Lord Zhou to help me with something."
At the end, Xu Bai seemed to feel that something was missing, and added: "As for Chunyu Pavilion, it will be the same if you invite me again after I leave."
Zhou Fuling: "..."
He was really just being polite.
He is different from Yun Zihai. He is already married. If he goes to Chunyu Pavilion again, his family will probably cry, make a fuss, or even hang themselves.
"Master Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it." Zhou Fuling tried his best to suppress his complaints and said, "As long as Zhou can do it, I will definitely help to the end."
"It's not a big deal." Xu Bai said, "Can all the leaders of the families who are causing trouble be locked up?"
Zhou Fuling was stunned, then reacted and shook his head and said, "I know they are putting pressure on Master Song, but they have not violated the law, and I can't arrest people at will."
This is the truth. It is indeed impossible to arrest people at will, otherwise it will be a mess. If it gets to the ears of the emperor, I am afraid that something big will happen.
"This is not a random arrest." Xu Bai pointed at Song De, then pointed at himself, and explained...
"First of all, I am just suspected, and it is a suspicion without evidence, right?"
Song De and Zhou Fuling looked at each other and nodded.
"Secondly, they are asking Master Song to execute me as soon as possible, right?"
The two nodded again, which was also correct.
"Finally, according to the laws of the Great Chu State, if they demand the execution of a person who is just a suspicion, is it a crime of false accusation?"
When Zhou Fuling heard this, he was stunned: "Actually, it can be barely related to this..."
"That's it?" Xu Bai shrugged and said, "Sir Zhou, I'll trouble you with this matter."
Zhou Fuling was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go arrest him now!"
The matter of arresting people still needs the government to do it, and the Jiantian Division can't control these.
Zhou Fuling also has his own ideas. He always feels that Xu Bai's visit to the capital this time is not simple, but he doesn't know what his intention is.
But one thing is right, that is, Xu Bai is now a popular person, and it's okay to help him.
"Wait, Sir Zhou, I have another request." Xu Bai smiled.
Zhou Fuling stopped and said, "Master Xu, please go ahead."
"There are too few cells. Why not put those people in the same cell with me? Isn't that great?" Xu Bai said, smiling more and more.
