Chapter 89 Reasons and Evidence
Looking at the Chu State armor that was thrown at his feet, Feng You's calm expression changed for the first time.
However, he hid it very well, the eyes under the eyelids flickered several times in succession, and randomly saw him pretending to be blank, and asked, "Forgive me for being dull, I don't quite understand the meaning of the sheriff."
Seeing that Feng You was going to pretend to be stupid, Mo Jun also smiled, stroked the mane of the sitting horse, and said: "Hehe~~ It seems that Patriarch Feng is indeed old. Forget it! Then let me give Feng a little help. Let me give you a hint!"
"A year ago, my lord encountered a little bit of trouble. I must have heard about it."
Feng You nodded, and replied: "Your Majesty, I have heard a little about Qin's achievements."
Regarding this matter, Feng You admitted it very simply, pretending to be stupid is also a technical job, and some things can be pretended in order to fool others. But if you insist on pretending some things that are too obvious, it is to treat others as fools.
Seeing Feng You's straightforward admission, Mo Jun continued: "Since Patriarch Feng knows about this, he must also know that in order to protect my lord, Nanjun County Captain once specially sent a team of elite soldiers to guard the county guard's mansion. .”
Feng You continued to nod and said: "General Meng attaches great importance to the governor, and everyone in the world has already known it."
Mo Jun said lightly: "Then Patriarch Feng, do you know how the group of assassins broke through the defense of Qin's elite soldiers and sneaked into the inner courtyard where my lord is?"
Feng You shook his head in a 'confused' way, and replied: "Well, this old man really didn't know about it."
Mo Jun chuckled, and then he didn't hold back anymore. He jumped off the horse lightly, and slowly came to Feng You, and said, "That's because there are traitors in my lord's Nanjun! Those traitors He actually secretly helped the people of Chu State and transported fifty sets of Chu State’s excellent battle armor into Yingdu, which blocked our Qin State’s elite soldiers and allowed assassins from all over the world to sneak into my lord’s inner courtyard smoothly.”
"Patriarch Feng, what kind of person do you think can cross the border and secretly transport fifty sets of fine armor into Yingdu without telling the city guards?"
As the last word fell, a dangerous cold light suddenly flashed across Mo Jun's eyes.
Dynasties and dynasties.
All feudal dynasties did not have strict jurisdiction over swords and other weapons.
But the armor is different. The Qin law stipulates that anyone who hides or makes even one armor will be regarded as treason.
The gate guards in Yingdu may dare to accept small favors, help others steal small taxes, and do small things. But they absolutely did not dare to put fifty sets of fine armor into Yingdu, because once caught, it would be a great crime for the Yi tribe.
So the person who can bring fifty sets of armor into Nanjun, or even the Sheriff's Mansion, must have extraordinary energy in Nanjun.
As for the people in Nanjun who have such energy and are willing to take this risk for Chu, after thinking about it, it is basically impossible to have a second candidate besides the four major clans.
Since Mo Jun dared to directly lead the army to encircle the Feng Mansion today, it is naturally impossible for him to simply 'frame up'. It's not that this trick cannot be used, but that Mo Jun's power has not yet reached that level.
The four major clans are in the Qin State, and the backer behind it is the Queen Mother Huayang, who is the grandmother of the current king of Qin Yingzheng. This is a very thick thigh, so thick that even Yingzheng is quite afraid.
So if there is no sufficient reason, anyone who takes action against the four major clans for no reason will usher in a violent backlash.
This is also the time when we knew that the four major clans planned to sell the grain to the people of Nanjun, but to the Chu State at the critical moment, but Meng Wu had no choice but to come up with the idea of "secret manipulation". reason for the conspiracy.
But if there is a good reason, that's a different story.
After listening to Mo Jun's words.
Feng You was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and smiled at him, saying: "The prefect's conjecture is really wonderful, but it's a pity..."
"What a pity?"
"It's a pity that adults have forgotten the most important point, that is evidence."
Feng You grinned at Mo Jun with an extremely arrogant smile, and said, "I wonder if my lord has evidence to prove that the assassination of your lord is related to my Feng family?"
Having said that, Feng You has actually indirectly admitted that the fifty sets of armor were brought in by him, but he firmly believes that Mo Jun has no evidence at this time.
Because all the hands and tails that transported the fifty sets of armor have already been cleaned up by their four major clans.
After listening to Feng You's words, Mo Jun stared at him in a daze for a while, then couldn't help laughing out loud, and said, "Pfft~~~ Patriarch Feng, you are so smart all your life, you were so confused for a while!"
Seeing Mo Jun's smile, Feng You's expression froze suddenly, and a premonition of uneasiness suddenly surged from his heart, and he subconsciously said, "What do you mean?"
Mo Jun stopped smiling, a cruel and cold arc slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "What do you mean? Patriarch Feng, don't you understand? You don't think that my lord will bring so many troops tonight Feng Mansion, it's really to tell you the evidence!"
Seeing Mo Jun's expression, Feng You seemed to realize something, his expression changed completely, and even his voice couldn't help becoming sharper, he said in surprise: "Mo Jun, are you crazy? How dare you treat my Feng family? Make a move? Have you thought about the consequences of doing so! The Empress Dowager Huayang and the Chu State will not let it go..."
poof~
Feng You didn't finish his sentence.
"you······"
Feng You's pupils dilated suddenly, and he raised one hand tremblingly, pointing at Mo Jun opposite, his eyes were full of astonishment, fear, and disbelief.
It seems that he never thought that Mo Jun would really dare to kill him, and actually dare to attack their Feng family.
However, facing Feng You's gaze, the smile on Mo Jun's mouth became colder and colder. He slowly approached Feng You's ear and said, "You still don't understand! Patriarch Feng."
"If you are just smuggling armor, I can't touch you in a short time. After all, I have reasons but no evidence. If you are just hoarding food at this time, I can't touch you, because I have evidence but no reason. "
"But you absolutely shouldn't, you shouldn't have put the two things together, and you just happened to get both of them on me."
"You know, when I came to Nanjun this time, what did the king say to me?"
"Cheap...do it!"
Hearing Mo Jun finished the last four words, Feng You's weak eyes suddenly shrank to a point.
Case handling emphasizes cause and effect.
Generally, the reason for handling a certain case is the cause, and the evidence for concluding the case is the effect.
Actually, Mr. Mo didn’t expect to turn against the four big clans so soon. After all, the four big clans are really not easy to move. Their influence in Nanjun is deeply intertwined, and the Empress Dowager Huayang is behind them. It is not so easy to move them.
Therefore, Mo Jun kept the fifty sets of Chu State armors with Meng Wu all the time, and he didn’t intend to use them now. Instead, he planned to keep them for the time being, and find an opportunity to settle the account later.
After all, although there is a reason to handle this matter, if there is no 'evidence', even if Mo Jun wants to investigate, he can only be cautious, because if there is no enough evidence in the end, Mo Jun will not only scare the snake, but may even be bitten back.
But they never expected that during the flood in Nanjun, the four major clans not only hoarded grain, but also planned to send Qin State’s grain to Chu State for disaster relief. This behavior has undoubtedly violated Ying Zheng’s rebellion.
There is a reason for "smuggling armor".
There is evidence for "gardening food to help the enemy".
Although the 'cause and effect' of the two are not connected, Mr. Mo happens to have the right to 'act cheaply' given by Ying Zheng.
In this way, Mo Jun was given the right to handle the case in an upright manner. As for the evidence for subsequent conviction, heh~~ How many of these so-called old nobles of the Chu Kingdom can really stand the investigation?
Although the vitality had disappeared rapidly, Feng You's thinking was clearer than before, perhaps because of the reflection of the light. Almost instantly, he figured out all the connections of this matter.
The so-called "armor smuggling" is simply an excuse, and the other party's purpose is to provide food for the Feng family.
After thinking it through, a great fear suddenly emerged in Feng You's heart: "You are looking for death, even if you succeed in this matter, the Queen Mother will not let you go, and Ying Zheng will not be able to save you... ..."
Mr. Mo chuckled and said, "I don't need Patriarch Feng to worry about my fate."
Mr. Mo naturally knew that after this incident, he would inevitably welcome revenge from the Empress Dowager Huayang and other forces from the Chu Kingdom.
This kind of retaliation is a matter of position and has nothing to do with right or wrong.
But revenge is also divided into strengths and weaknesses.
If it was his own fault this time, for example, if he established the Four Great Clans in a way of "framing", then even if Ying Zheng was willing to protect Mo Jun, and with the credit of Mo Jun, he would still pay a certain price.
Because a mistake is a mistake, and sometimes merit and demerit cannot be offset.
However, in this operation, I have filled up the eight words of "fair and fair, reasonable and reasonable". In this way, relying on his great achievement of 'improving rice seeds and doubling the yield', if the opponent dares to retaliate at this time, Mo Jun will be able to force the fight back with a backhand.
"Wait~~"
Seeing that Mo Jun's clothes were not filled with oil and salt, Feng You could only choose to be soft, and took the initiative to stop Mo Jun, and said sadly: "I can give you the food. And the Feng family can also help you with your follow-up troubles." You solve it, I just ask you... let the rest of the Feng family go."
It is obviously very difficult for Feng You, the noble head of the Feng family who has been noble all his life, to beg for help in a low voice. It is just a sentence, but it seems to have drained all of Feng You's strength in an instant.
However, facing Feng You's entreaty, Mo Jun just glanced at him indifferently, and said: "It's a pity, you said this too late."
Next second.
Mr. Mo suddenly pulled out the long sword that had pierced Feng You's chest, waved it lightly, and coldly ordered to the black armored soldiers: "Kill, don't leave a single one behind!"
The long sword on his chest was pulled out, and Feng You's vitality dissipated at a faster speed, but just a second before he died, after hearing the order from Mo Jun, Feng You's old body suddenly shook, and the hatred Looking at Mo Jun, he said, "You... are so ruthless!"
