Shen Ming really didn't expect that Lin Tao could say such words.
It really surprised him.
"Okay, then I want to see how I lost." Wang Lang shook his head helplessly.
"Actually, winning or losing is not that important to me." Wang Lang's words were somewhat meaningful.
Shen Ming glanced at him and continued the previous topic, "Wang Lang, on that night of heavy rain, you led the bandits from Liangshan and went down the mountain to capture Liangcheng County."
"All the people in the county were beheaded and fell down. There were thousands of people, and none of them survived."
"Can you hear the piercing wailing on a thunderstorm night? Can you hear the baby crying?"
"Thousands of people, after being killed by you alone."
"In order to cover up the traces of looting, and also to hide the bones, you chose those blood-stained walls and pushed them to the ground."
"Two days later."
"When the officers and soldiers suppressed the bandits, the Liangshan bandit village was already hollowed out by people."
"When they came to Liangcheng County, all of you pretended to be ordinary people.
"This group of officers and soldiers from outside didn't know you, so they believed it to be true, so you escaped unharmed."
Shen Ming paused for a moment, then looked up at Wang Lang.
"It's a bit ironic."
"The country is prosperous and the people are safe. The reason why the doors are not closed at night is that the people here are a bunch of bandits? The whole county, from top to bottom, is without exception."
"But you can't say that, those children are innocent."
"It's just that I'm afraid it will implicate them." Shen Ming shook his head.
Wang Lang stood up and clapped his hands. He looked at the county government hall, and then at Lin Tao who was sitting on it.
"If you were the magistrate of Liangcheng County back then, Mr. Lin, then I would have no chance to do these things."
"And you, do you think I did something wrong?" Wang Lang pointed at Shen Ming and said.
"Wrong? There is no right or wrong, different positions. From your standpoint, you are right, but from the standpoint of a spectator, you are wrong."
"As for me... I am the same kind of person as you." Shen Ming walked to Wang Lang's side, and the two of them met each other's eyes.
"People can do anything in order to live."
"We want to live, so they must die." Wang Lang stared at Shen Ming.
"Forget it, right or wrong is what the winner can say."
"Wang Lang, who do you think will have the last laugh." Shen Ming returned to his seat and asked casually.
"The winner will not be you, let alone me."
"You should have called for rescuers, but they haven't arrived yet. I'll kill you first, and then they're killing me. We're all going to die."
"The one who really laughed last was the gentleman." Wang Lang lowered his head and laughed wildly.
"You are wrong." Shen Ming raised his head.
"The lord you mentioned, Zhou Wenjie, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he will not live long."
"How did you know?"
Wang Lang became more and more curious about Shen Ming.
"Is it strange? I deliberately checked all the files in the past ten years or so, and found that there was a major accident during the Northern Wilderness Years."
"That's a jailbreak case."
"I carefully read all the information in that file."
"I found a very interesting phenomenon."
"On the way from Manfeng City to Julu City, the shackles of you prisoners fell off. It was late at night. Before the officers and soldiers could react, you preemptively fought with them."
"At that time, there was a general who accompanied you, and he should have easily suppressed you."
"But was intercepted by a Jianghu master who broke out halfway. According to records, the two fought for three full days, and there was no winner. In the end, the Jianghu master withdrew as the end."
"Later, when the imperial court thoroughly investigated why the shackles fell off, it was discovered that the head of the prison committed suicide in fear of crime."
"The matter also ended with the death of the cell boss."
"But what I didn't understand was why the mayor of Julu City took the initiative to plead guilty to the emperor, begging him to be demoted, dispatched to the border, and strive to pay for his crimes and make meritorious service." Shen Ming gave Wang Lang a meaningful look.
"The owner of Julu City is named Zhou Wenjie."
"Coincidentally, the current Minister of the Ministry of Officials is also called Zhou Wenjie. I took a closer look at Zhou Wenjie's resume."
"Coincidentally, this Zhou Wenjie was the county magistrate in Liangcheng County back then!"
"Wang Lang, do you think there will be such a coincidence in the world?" Shen Ming turned his head and looked at Wang Lang.
"In the whole of Qinhuai, there are countless people who are smarter than you, but they are not as bold as you, because they are not as bold as you, and dare not guess without you, otherwise we would not be happy for so many years." Wang Lang really admired Shen Ming.
"Oh, because I am a person, I don't need any evidence. My guess is true." Shen Ming shook his head.
By now, Shen Ming has probably sorted out the events of that year.
When the incident happened, it was not long before the Northern Wilderness destroyed the country.
I'm afraid that all of this was arranged by the Northern Emperor back then. Zhou Wenjie, the lord of Julu City, must be one of the Northern Emperor's confidantes.
Beihuang's move can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
The master of the rivers and lakes who fought with the general should be one of the dead servants by his side.
Beihuang was well aware of Jiuxuan's abilities, so he had to arrange everything almost perfectly in order to fool their eyes.
These two thousand criminals will not attract too much attention from Jiu Xuan.
Moreover, it was a war at that time, so it was reasonable to be sent to Julu City, and then go to the narrow area to fill up the soldiers. Being intercepted and killed halfway, in Jiuxuan's eyes, it was just a trivial matter.
Don't worry, their eyes are the whole world, how can they pay attention to the matter of two thousand criminals.
The Northern Emperor knew this very well, so he asked Zhou Wenjie to contact them, telling them that they could be saved from death and even be free.
For criminals, the most important thing is two words.
free.
Who wants to live a dark life in that stinky prison cell.
So without much hesitation, he agreed.
That's how those things happened.
When fighting with officers and soldiers, it is inevitable that people will die, so these people who survived are the group of people in Liangcheng County now.
They occupy the mountain as king, and the Northern Emperor knows that time is not an option.
Therefore, there was Zhou Wenjie's plea.
Then they were assigned to Liangcheng County as a matter of course, maybe Zhou Wenjie and Wang Lang agreed.
Let them go to Liangshan and occupy the mountain as kings.
A few days later, Zhou Wenjie took up the post of Liangcheng County to help Wang Lang and the others thoroughly.
Seeing this, Wang Lang and others were even more grateful to them. On the one hand, Zhou Wenjie monitored them, and on the other hand, he used them.
After a few years, nothing happened.
Although they say that they cannot go out to show their faces in the cottage, but this is enough for them, and it is much better than being in a prison cell.
Don't worry about food and clothing, the environment is free.
Over time, I got used to it.
After the Northern Wilderness destroyed the country, Emperor Qin removed many high-ranking officials and city lords.
However, the sky in Liangcheng County was high and the emperor was far away, so no one would care about it. Zhou Wenjie's preservation made it easier to carry out the following matters.
The Northern Emperor can be regarded as an exhaustive strategy.
