Nanzheng County, County Sheriff's Office.
A group of officials knelt down in the hall tremblingly, not daring to look into Wang Can's eyes.
Yes, I dare not look into Wang Can's eyes.
It's not that he's afraid of Wang Can, but that he's embarrassed.
When the new governor arrived in Hanzhong, he was assassinated by Hanzhong officials.
This incident really made Hanzhong officials lose face.
Although the general who assassinated Wang Can had been killed and Wang Can was not injured, Wang Can's face tensed up instantly, and the smile on his face was replaced by a cold and deep expression.
When encountering this situation, Wang Can led the soldiers directly into the city without saying a word.
After settling Cai Yan, Guo Jia, Lu Meng and others, Wang Can immediately summoned Hanzhong officials to the governor's house to discuss matters.
Many Hanzhong officials understood that Wang Can was on the verge of an explosion, so they lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger.
They did not even dare to look Wang Can in the face.
Most of these people who did not dare to look Wang Can in the eye had a relationship with Su.
He also knew who the person who assassinated Wang Can was, so he felt guilty.
Silence, speechlessness.
In the living room, the atmosphere became stagnant.
No official stood up to speak, and Wang Can sat in the living room with a cold expression, his face as sinking as water, and his eyes flashed with a ferocious look, like a crazy beast, ready to choose someone to devour at any time.
"Huhu" Wang Can opened his slightly narrowed eyes, took a deep breath, and asked: "Can anyone tell me who the person who assassinated me outside Nanzheng City today is, and who are the people related to him?
Who are the people he often comes into contact with and who are plotting to assassinate me?"
After Wang Can finished speaking, there was still no movement in the hall, but no official stood up to speak.
"Is it possible that no one in Hanzhong County knows about this?"
Wang Can said with a sneer.
At this time, the old man sitting first on the left side of the hall stood up.
The old man's hair and beard were white, he was wearing a black robe, and he was holding a cane in his hand.
He walked tremblingly into the living room, saluted Wang Can, and said: "Master Wang, the name of the general who assassinated you today is Su Zhi, and he is Su Gu.
My cousin, because he was dissatisfied with the execution of Su Gu by his lord, he took the risk and wanted to assassinate the Lord. " "Su Zhi's crime was committed by Su Zhi alone.
No one else knew about it and had no accomplices.
Please be aware of it."
When the old man spoke, he was full of energy, his words were clear, and he showed no fear at all.
"Hahaha, it turned out to be Su Gu's cousin Su Zhi.
Well, what a Su Zhi.
He dared to commit murder in broad daylight.
He was really brave.
It seems that even if Su Gu died, many people still wouldn't give up."
Wang Can listened.
After that, he raised the corners of his mouth and said in a conspiratorial tone: " In the past, I have heard that the emperor was angry, with corpses strewn across the fields, and rivers of blood flowing.
When ordinary people were angry, only two people were killed or injured, and blood was splashed five steps away.
However, when this prefect was angry, although it was not as overbearing and arrogant as the emperor's anger, it was still...
It’s not something ordinary people can compare to when they’re angry.”
"My anger will lay thousands upon thousands of corpses, and the earth will be stained with blood."
Wang Can's eyes widened and he roared loudly at the officials sitting in the hall.
Turning his eyes, Wang Can's eyes fell outside the living room and shouted loudly: "Where is the soldier outside the door?"
Outside the living room, Pei Yuanshao heard Wang Can shouting, and immediately ran in with two soldiers.
Pei Yuanshao was wearing armor.
As he walked, the armors rubbed against each other and made a clicking sound.
When he walked to the center of the living room, Pei Yuanshao knelt on the ground with one knee and cupped his hands.

Said: "Lord, Pei Yuanshao is here."
Wang Can's eyes were cold and he ordered in a deep voice: "Su Zhi's crime is unforgivable if he commits the following crimes.
His head will be displayed to the public for three days, and a notice will be posted stating all of Su Zhi's crimes."
"I treat people with benevolence and persuade others with my virtue.
It's a pity that I am too kind to Su Gu and others.
I originally wanted to kill Su Gu, but his family and relatives would not be held accountable, which would make these people grateful.
Unexpectedly, They are so stubborn and unwilling to repent, what's the use of keeping people who are so cruel and unwilling to repay their kindness."
"Pei Yuanshao, you immediately send soldiers to surround the house where Su Gu and Su Zhi live.
No one is allowed to enter or exit."
"Anyone who resists, young or old, will be killed on the spot."
At the end of Wang Can's words, he was so angry that he finished the last sentence almost word for word, gritting his teeth.
"Nuo" Pei Yuanshao answered with clasped fists upon hearing this, and then prepared to lead the soldiers out of the hall.
"Wait a minute, we can't go, we can't go."
The old man standing aside quickly turned around, took two quick steps and blocked Pei Yuanshao with his thin body, preventing him from leaving the hall.
Pei Yuanshao ignored the old man, but looked back at Wang Can, waiting for Wang Can's order.
Wang Can waved his hand, signaling Pei Yuanshao not to move for the time being.
At this time, when the old man saw that Pei Yuanshao was standing still, he lifted up his robe and knelt down.
He said seriously: "Master Wang, Su Zhi was so bold that he assassinated you.
This was done by Su Zhi alone, together with Su Gu and Su Zhi's family.
It has nothing to do with it.
Besides, you are not injured because of God’s protection.
Please let Su Gu and Su Zhi’s family go.
The truth is that the harm will not harm the wife and children.
Although Su Gu and Su Zhi are guilty, they cannot implicate their parents, wife and children.”
"If your Excellency insists on surrounding Su Gu and Su Zhi's residence, please also imprison me."
"As a meritorious officer of the county in my humble position, I am responsible for the promotion and promotion of officials.
Su Zhi has the opportunity to assassinate the Lord.
In my humble position, I am also responsible for oversight.
Please think twice, sir."
The old man's sincere words made the officials nod their heads.
Moreover, the old man also understood that if the officers and soldiers sent by Wang Can surrounded Su Gu and Su Zhi's family members, the Su family would probably be completely wiped out.
In troubled times, soldiers are like bandits.
This saying is not unreasonable.
Wang Can frowned slightly after hearing the old man's words, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.
At this time, another middle-aged man in a soap-colored robe stood up, knelt beside the old man and said, "Sir, every word of what Mr.
Deng said makes sense.
It is said that no harm can come to the wife and children.
Su Gu, Su Zhi, and below I deserve to be killed by you, but Su Gu and Su Zhi’s family are innocent, so please think twice before doing anything.”
"My lord, please think twice before you act."
Now that he was in the lead, the officials in the living room also came out one after another, bowed to Wang Can, knelt in the living room and shouted loudly: "Your Excellency, please think twice before you act."
The right way is to punish everyone but not to blame.
If there are too many people, it will naturally be difficult to deal with it.
These officials are all veterans of the officialdom and do not hold back their tricks.
Seeing the old man's apology, others agreed and stood up to admonish Wang Can.
All the officials kneeling in the hall knelt down and begged Wang Can to let Su Gu and Su Zhi's family go.

Everyone knelt down and worshiped.
What kind of concept was this?
The officials were all the main officials in Hanzhong.
If all the officials were disposed of, the Hanzhong government would collapse and would not be able to function.
Wang Can had a dark face and was extremely angry.
I thought I could use the excuse of Su Zhi's assassination to punish Su Gu's direct descendants, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
His eyes fell on the old man and asked: "Dare you ask the boss for his name?"
"Lao Sir" is an old official term used to refer to an elderly and respected person.
The old man was a distinguished figure in Hanzhong and a man of great virtue, so Wang Can called him Mr.
Lao.
Hearing Wang Can's question, the old man raised his head and replied: "Reporting to your lord, Deng Zheng, whose courtesy name is Zifang, serves as a meritorious officer in Hanzhong.
My lord asked, are you willing to let go of the past and not harm Su Gu and Su Zhi's family?"
Wang Can felt funny in his heart.
He just asked a question, but Deng Zheng could actually think of the release of Su Gu and Su Zhi's family.
Deng Zheng is really an interesting person.
Although Deng Zheng had a conscience, a sense of responsibility, a good person, and a good official, unfortunately he was not a good leader. s: Three of four updates.
