Seeing the emotional old lady, Liu Dalang and others were shocked and hurried forward to dissuade her. After a long time of persuasion, they finally calmed the old lady down.

"Mom, do you believe in your son? I will definitely seek justice for A-bao, but before that, you must take care of yourself and watch that day with your own eyes!"

Liu Dalang squatted in front of the old woman, held her hand and looked at her seriously.

The old woman touched Liu Dalang's face tremblingly, the corners of her mouth twitched, but she opened her mouth but no sound came out.

"Mom, what Big Brother said is right. We will definitely seek justice for Abao and make that bastard Zhou Qingyun pay the price he deserves. Mom, you must take care of yourself and don't get angry. Watch that day come with your own eyes."

…

The voices of Liu Dalang and others came intermittently from the room, and every word fell into the ears of Shen Tingsi and Feng Jue on the roof.

Although no one knew what happened, it was not difficult to hear from their words that Abao died because of Zhou Qingyun, and that his death was unjust, and he has never been able to get justice.

Shen Tingsi now understood the intention of what Liu Dalang had just said in the south of the city.

By using the "pulling tendons and peeling skin" performance, he made the people mistakenly believe that he was killing innocent people indiscriminately, thus arousing public anger and naturally directing the spearhead at Zhou Qingyun.

Let the people remember what Zhou Qingyun has done over the years, and then use the power of the crowd to ferment the matter and bring it to him.

Looking at the heart-wrenching scene below, Shen Tingsi pursed his lips and tightened his hands slightly behind his back.

"Wind Technique, check."

"yes!"

Feng Jue looked solemn, wishing he could find out the whole story right now, give justice to the dead, and give peace to the living! After learning some information from Liu Dalang and others, Shen Tingsi left without anyone noticing, and did not choose to show up at this time to disturb the family.

Shen Tingsi did not deliberately conceal his whereabouts and returned to the general's mansion through the main gate openly.

When the two arrived near the bamboo garden, they saw a familiar figure.

The man was kneeling in front of the gate of the bamboo garden, with a back full of brambles. He was kneeling in front of the gate of the bamboo garden with an attitude of asking for forgiveness, waiting for Shen Tingsi to arrive.

The person who came was none other than Zhou Qingyuan.

Shen Tingsi was not surprised at Zhou Qingyuan's arrival. Today's events had caused a lot of uproar and it would soon reach Zhou Qingyuan's ears.

"What are you doing here so late, Mr. Zhou?"

When they arrived at the gate of Bamboo Garden, Feng Jue asked on behalf of his master.

Zhou Qingyuan lowered his head to the ground in fear and said, "It is my poor teaching that has made my brother develop such an arrogant character. Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Zhou Qingyuan had long ago ordered the servants in the mansion not to approach the bamboo garden without being summoned, so he was not worried that his words would be heard by others, and he came directly to apologize as a king and his subject.

"My dear, what do you mean?"

Shen Tingsi pretended to be confused and looked at Zhou Qingyuan who was kneeling in front of him.

Zhou Qingyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he told the truth.

"My father passed away early, and I was away from home for most of the year. Only my mother and my younger brother depended on each other. My mother doted on my younger brother too much since he was young, which led to his arrogant personality today."

"Mother was afraid that I would punish my brother, so she kept these things a secret. If I hadn't heard the report from the servants today, I would have been kept in the dark. Your Majesty, rest assured. Now that I know about this, I will strictly discipline my brother in the future and will never let him cause trouble again!"

Zhou Qingyuan used a tactic of retreating to advance and cleared himself of all blame, and pushed all the mistakes made by Zhou Qingyun onto Mrs. Zhou's excessive doting.

"Stand up, Lord Zhou has been stationed at the border for many years and has made great military achievements. What's wrong with that?"

"This is my duty. I am lucky to be stationed at the border to defend Dongchu. As long as Your Majesty and the people are safe, I will sacrifice my life for it!"

Zhou Qingyuan was moved to tears and expressed his loyalty to His Majesty and the court.

After achieving his goal, Zhou Qingyuan retreated on the pretext that he did not dare to disturb His Majesty's rest.

"Tsk, General Zhou is really well-informed."

After Zhou Qingyuan left, Feng Jue looked at his back and sighed softly.

As a secret guard, Feng Jue usually does not appear in the court, so he does not know Zhou Qingyuan. This is the first time the two have met.

But for some reason, he always had an indescribable feeling about his first impression of Zhou Qingyuan.

He always felt that Zhou Qingyuan was not like the generals he had seen, with a smart mind and a heroic character. Instead, he felt that this man was extremely cunning, and everything he showed was what he wanted the world to see.

Shen Tingsi said nothing and walked towards the bamboo garden.

Feng Jue looked deeply in the direction Zhou Qingyuan left.

Now that he was in Jiangnan City, he wanted to see if this General Zhou had a second face as he thought.

The moon sets and the stars fall, and I sleep all night without dreams.

Early in the morning, news came that Zhou Qingyuan was going to take Zhou Qingyun to the training ground to deal with him according to military law.

The news quickly spread throughout the general's mansion at lightning speed, and naturally also reached the ears of Shen Tingsi who was in the Bamboo Garden.

Zhou Qingyuan's original intention was to do this for Shen Tingsi to see, so he would naturally try every means to let him know about it.

Shen Tingsi sat at his desk reviewing letters from the imperial city, while listening to the news that Feng Jue had just heard from the servants in the general's mansion.

"Master, General Zhou's move is really to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and directly shut the mouths of the people!"

Ever since the Lantern Festival last night, the city has been abuzz with stories about Zhou Qingyun's deeds, and Zhou Qingyuan's reputation has also been affected.

Zhou Qingyuan had made great military achievements on the frontier, and the people of Jiangnan were proud of him. But now, the man who was deeply loved by the people has become a villain who shields his brother and abuses his power for personal gain.

For a while, there were mixed opinions about Zhou Qingyuan. Some people always stood on Zhou Qingyuan's side and said that there must be a misunderstanding.

However, the people who had been oppressed by Zhou Qingyun for a long time would inevitably have complaints in their hearts, and they were also somewhat dissatisfied with Zhou Qingyuan.

Now, Zhou Qingyuan simply abandoned his brotherly love and took Zhou Qingyun to the training ground to punish him by military law, thus shutting up the people.

He did not just watch his brother make mistakes without disciplining him, but was kept in the dark from the very beginning.

The people's public opinion changed instantly, and they praised Zhou Qingyuan for his broad-mindedness and for putting national laws and regulations first.

As a master and servant who grew up together in their teens, how could Shen Tingsi not hear the sarcasm in Feng Jue's words? He raised his eyes to look at Feng Jue who was standing in front of him, and was about to speak when a female voice came from outside the yard.

"Is anyone there?"
