Second minister and thief

Chapter 41 Bet

As soon as these words came out, although the adults did not say anything, the expressions on their faces changed slightly.Chu Linqiu calmly took a panoramic view of these changes, based on which he judged who among these few people had ghosts in his heart, and who was really greedy for life and afraid of death.

He noticed that there was at least a hint of panic in the expressions of at least three people present, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light in their eyes, but the prime minister and the three people who were in charge of the political affairs were as still as a mountain, and they didn't even move their eyes. They were still so calm and motionless, as if I had already expected that I would say this.This just confirmed his previous inference.

"The grown-ups are all people who have experienced turbulent waves. I don't know if they dare to make a bet with Jiu Shang?" Chu Linqiu finally stood up from his chair, and with the support of his subordinates, he walked slowly to the prime minister. He looked down at him.

"Why bet?" Song Xiangru's sword-like eyes also shone directly into his eyes. After a while, Fang curled up his mouth and showed the same smile as before, just like an elder facing a rebellious junior.He raised his hand and patted Chu Linqiu's shoulder, then passed him by, and walked to the main seat to sit down.

"What's the stake?"

"I bet that there will be deaths in the capital in the next two days. If the officials are lucky enough to win, the adults will set an example and accept my Xuanwu Guard's search."

"what?!"

Chu Linqiu's words fell to the ground with sound, and even a single stone in this front hall caused a thousand waves of waves. This time, even the prime minister's face couldn't help but change a few times.Some people were furious, while others looked cowardly and flinched. The only thing that was certain was that most of them were harboring ulterior motives.

"My surname is Chu! What do you mean by this?! The commander of the capital who guards the peace of the capital easily gambled with my life. I will go to the palace to report this matter to the sage now, and let the sage wait for us call the shots!"

"That's right! Master Chu, don't you think I'm waiting for you? Mr. Ge!" The lord was so angry that his face was flushed, even the veins on his forehead were clearly visible, and he suddenly turned to the Lord. Zuo gave a rough fist, then turned his head aside and said, "Say a few words."

The Prime Minister's eyes were heavy, his expression was hard to distinguish, he lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking about. After a while, he said, "If no one dies within two days, what will you do?"

Chu Linqiu was also straightforward, and immediately said, "I will ask you to be demoted three levels in a row, and no longer serve as the commander of the capital."

"That's what you said, Master Chu."

"It's what the officials said. Ahem...Everyone present can witness it." Chu Linqiu was already unable to support himself at this moment, and even his eyes were a little slack, so he simply took off his disguise , the whole person leaned on the subordinate's body, using his strength to support himself.

Because of the high fever, the corners of his eyes were a little red, and there was a faint glint of moisture. When he stared at people, it made people feel unbearable, as if everyone present had bullied him.

This is exactly what Chu Linqiu wanted.

"Elder Ge, if you don't want any more casualties in the capital, please ask the lower officials to send people to search. The clean up is self-clearing. If the adults have no ghosts in their hearts, why do they interfere with Xuanwuwei's investigation?"

"Lord Chu, where do you place the Judgment Court?! If you let Master Li of the Judgment Court come with the will of the saint, I will have nothing to say! But if you act like this, it will be a bit boring. Let me wait." Convinced?" It was another Canzhi Zhengshi who spoke, this person is good at following the prime minister's wink and acting, and he is regarded as his half-student.As a cowardly person, he is used to being wise and protecting himself, so he thinks he got a secret instruction to dare to question him so loudly.

Chu Linqiu felt a little ridiculous when he thought that this person would deliberately take a detour when he saw him in the court.
