Chapter 21 From now on, the sky is high and the birds fly freely



The five people on Cheng Bokang's list told the whole story. Naturally, the county magistrate could no longer remain calm and had to confess the whole story that he was coerced by Wang Chengguo to write a false document.

Now that the truth of everything has been revealed, the next step is Tang Lin's judgment.

Wang Chengguo instructed others to forge documents, privately mobilize troops, dismissed him from all his posts and had his property confiscated. The men in his family were exiled to Lingnan, and the women were sent to the Ye Ting Bureau and the Jiaosifang. He himself was executed in the autumn.

Since the county magistrate was not the mastermind and was threatened by his superiors to be exiled to Lingnan as an official, the five people on Cheng Bokang's list were sentenced to three years of hard labor for giving false testimony, so Wang Zheng was naturally not in trouble.

After the verdict was announced, the hall was in silence. Just as Zhangsun Wuji was about to get up and leave, Wu Zetian pointed at Wan Shuan, smiled and said, "Execute him in court."

Zhu Guichen immediately came out with two guards and picked up a killing stick from the side. The two guards subdued Wan Shuan from behind. Zhu Guichen hit him left and right on the face with the killing stick, leaving Wan Shuan no chance to shout anything. All he could do was look frightened and stammer.

Changsun Wuji wanted to speak, but looking at Wu Zetian's smiling face, he finally sighed dejectedly, stood up and walked out.

To put it bluntly, Wan Shuan's identity was just a royal servant. Wu Zetian didn't even need an excuse to kill him. No one would gossip about killing people like him for fun, as long as it wasn't done too often.

Hearing Wang Zheng mention the old eunuch, Li Si became a little discouraged. "That old eunuch is very powerful. I fought with him for more than an hour, but I didn't hit him once. Instead, he hit me countless times."

Cotton seeds have existed since the Han Dynasty, but they were only grown as flowers in the palace for wealthy families to admire. Mainly because the flower buds were not large and the seeds accounted for a large proportion, they were not widely used.

Wu Zetian nodded, then strode away. Zhu Guichen, who followed behind her, gave Wang Zheng an encouraging look.

Later, I could barely keep up, but I was still the only one who suffered, so I quit, and he explained some tricks to me. After that, we exchanged more than ten punches. After I hit him once, he stopped coming. "

Wang Zheng's armor was made by firing thin porcelain pieces at high temperature, then boiling fish glue and sticking the porcelain pieces on silk cloth.

Moreover, Wang Zheng also needed cotton to make armor. Earlier, Wang Zheng made some gadgets to deal with Wang Chengguo, including armor.

After this incident, no one from Bashu should bother him anymore. It’s not that Wang Zheng has become a person that no one dares to mess with, but that there is no need to pay attention to anyone who dares to mess with Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng finally bowed to Tang Lin and said goodbye, then walked out of the Ministry of Justice. He looked at the spring sunset in the sky and breathed a sigh of relief. Although Wang Zheng had expected that the matter could be resolved so smoothly, he was still very happy at this moment.

Anyway, as long as plants select the best from the best each time, they will continue to optimize.

A total of three layers of silk cloth mixed with two layers of porcelain tiles were used. It could protect against general attacks by swords and axes, and bows and arrows, but it could not protect against spear thrusts. If a layer of cotton was added in the middle to dissipate the force, it should be able to protect against spear thrusts.

"This is what it looks like after he applied a cool ointment on me and the swelling went down. Yesterday my whole hand was swollen and blistering."

“I see.”

After the matter came to an end, Wu Zetian also stood up and left. Before leaving, she said to Wang Zheng: "Go back and do your work well. I am waiting to see your performance."

Although the current cotton production is not high, Wang Zheng's usage is not large either. After solving the urgent problem, he can slowly cultivate it.

After Zhu Guichen saw Changsun Wuji leaving, he knocked Wan Shuan to death in the court with just one blow.

Tang Lin just sighed. If it were any other time, with his personality, he might have said a few words directly, but in this situation, Tang Lin had nothing to say.

Li Si was very happy riding on the big mule. He had wanted to ride a horse for a long time. Unfortunately, the two southwestern horses that Jiangxinyu had before were too short. Although they could still tow him, they did not feel right when riding.

Wang Zheng plans to take it back and try to cultivate it to see if it can produce any benefits.

Li Si asked a little embarrassedly: "Master, did I not explain it clearly? How about we fight each other? I will explain it to you while we fight, and it will be much easier to understand. This is how I learned it yesterday."

Wang Zheng quickly bowed and saluted, saying, "I will definitely not let your Majesty down."

Wang Zheng only half understood what he saw, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, forget it, let's talk about it slowly when we get back."

Now that I can ride a big mule, I can finally satisfy my craving.

However, because watermelons take up land and their planting season overlaps with that of staple food, they have not been widely spread. After all, in that era, food is the most important thing.

After returning to the Ye Ting Bureau, Wang Zheng said goodbye to Wang Xian and took Li Si back. Li Si had just stayed in the gatehouse of the Ye Ting Bureau. The old eunuch said he would teach him something. After a few hours, I don’t know what he learned . After resting at the post station for a night, Wang Zheng took Li Si to visit the East and West Market the next day, bought two big mules, some cotton and watermelon seeds, and then left Chang'an City.

Wang Zheng frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "What did he explain to you? Tell me about it."

Wang Zheng smacked his lips and asked, "So you didn't learn anything from being beaten up by him?"

Li Si scratched his short hair and said uncertainly, "I think he learned something. I'm not sure. At the beginning, I couldn't even keep up with his movements.

"What did you learn from that old eunuch in the concierge's room?"

Li Si scratched the back of his head and said with gestures: "He said that when punching, you should use this force a little harder, this force a little lighter, and this force will increase the speed."

Wang Zheng looked at Li Si suspiciously, wondering if this guy was looking for an excuse to beat him up and vent his anger at the old eunuch yesterday on him?

Some people look honest and simple-minded at ordinary times, but they are actually mean and vicious at heart. Moreover, many times they do bad things without realizing it, but just feel that it feels good to do so.

Wang Zheng shook his head and said, "Forget it. I don't need to learn all this. You just need to learn it in depth. But when you go back, you can pass this method to Zhang San, or you can find those Ba people to practice with."

Wang Zheng is still very open-minded. If his subordinates want to vent their anger, Wang Zheng will help them think of a solution, as long as they don't blame him.

Li Si nodded and said, "Well, I will practice more deeply so that I can protect the master in the future."
