Liu Yu's eyes sparkled, and his voice was cadenced and impassioned: "Huanxuan had been greatly favored by the Jin Dynasty in his life. He did not want to serve the country. Instead, he usurped the throne and established himself, killing the loyal and good. He held the power of the world, but he did not care about the lives of the people. Jiankang was flooded.
, every family is suffering, but he does not go to relieve it! The country is torn by wars, but he does not rest and recuperate, but he conscripts without restraint and takes advantage of others."
"I, Jiankang, are the imperial capital, but under the emperor's feet, frozen and hungry corpses are scattered in the streets and alleys, and beggars and refugees are all over the city suburbs. The capital is still like this, and what a miserable state the world is in! In the land of Sanwu, Yizi was eaten, Jingzhou and Yongzhou,
Thousands of miles of red land, all of these are the crimes of Huanxuan, the great evil thief, who destroyed thousands of people in the world just for his ambition to be the emperor!"
"I, Liu Yushi, have received the favor of the country, and of course I cannot allow him to harm the people of the world, so I raised my troops to eliminate violence. Next, I will continue to pursue Huan Xuan, rescue the late emperor, and restore peace to our Jin Dynasty. This world is our common
The world needs the concerted efforts of everyone. I, Liu Yu, hereby promise that I will never harm the country and the people like Huan Xuan, and I will never let the people of the world suffer for my own selfish desires like him! If there is any violation, please share it with me.
Attack me, just like driving away Huan Xuan, destroy me!"
A burst of thunderous cheers and applause broke out from the crowd. This time, it was completely from the heart, without any hypocrisy or pretense. Liu Yuhu's eyes were shining, he held his fists and saluted to the diners in the entire tavern.
, in response, the applause lasted for a long time, even causing the passers-by outside the door to stop one after another. After learning that Liu Yu was here, they also joined in. Soon, this not-so-small tavern was surrounded.
I am overwhelmed.
Beside Liu Yu, the big fat man like a mountain of flesh also stood up. Liu Muzhi's round face was displayed in front of everyone. He also saluted and said in a deep voice: "Dear Jiankang elders, General Liu just said
Every sentence comes from the bottom of my heart and is absolutely true. I am Bo Liu Muzhi, the leader of the righteous army, and I would like to thank you all. Today I came with General Liu to investigate a murder case here, involving some
Conspiracy organization, we also ask all elders to stay away temporarily. After handling this matter, we will officially release the list to calm the people and announce it to the world."
Someone in the crowd loudly said: "Since Master Liu said this, let's not cause trouble for them and let's disperse now."
Many people responded one after another, and the flow of people began to walk out. Soon, the Fanglin Tavern was deserted, leaving only empty couches full of seats, with wine utensils and bowls and chopsticks spread out on the couches.
As well as the shopkeeper with a grimace on his face, who kept shouting: "Oh, don't leave, the wine money has not been paid yet!". Of course, there was also Lin Tiezui, who was still kneeling on the stage,
He was lying on the ground and didn't dare to get up.
Liu Yu walked up to the shopkeeper and smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, shopkeeper, all the wine money you spent here today will be on my head, and I will bring it to you later."
The shopkeeper waved his hands repeatedly: "No, how can this be allowed? How can I let you pay..."
Liu Yu waved his hand and said calmly: "I have something to do soon, the shopkeeper. These people left because of me, so I have to pay the money."
The shopkeeper kept nodding his head, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Yu Yue's voice came from behind Liu Yu: "Mr. Liu, it was really dangerous just now. There are so many people here. If there is an assassin mixed in the crowd and you are alone, I'm afraid..."
Liu Yu didn't look back: "I wish there were assassins just now, so that I could catch some clues. Thousands of enemies are in front of me on the battlefield, and I am not afraid. Now that I have been liberated here,
In Jiankang City, even if I have a night or two, what should I be afraid of?"
Yu Yue's forehead began to sweat. He took out a silk handkerchief and wiped it while nodding his head and saying: "Liu Gong is so powerful that he is a man of heaven and earth!"
Liu Muzhi looked at the shopkeeper. His chubby face was as cold as ice. He said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper Li, did anything happen in your shop the night before yesterday?"
Shopkeeper Li sighed: "To tell you the truth, a murder did occur on the second floor of our place the night before yesterday. One of the two guests in the box died, and the other's whereabouts are unknown."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "Why don't you report such a big matter to the official as a murder case?"
Shopkeeper Li spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Master Liu, you may not know much about our part of the capital. There are three religions and nine schools here, and gods from all walks of life gather here. How can I, a small shopkeeper, dare to interfere. If nothing else,
, even the various seats and boxes on the second floor, no one dares to go up. Those are just like the land of Sanwu. From the day the Fanglin Tavern was established, they have been owned by unknown aristocratic families.
They are responsible for the management of the business, and I can't interfere with anything except serving drinks."
Liu Yu was surprised: "Is there such a thing? You don't even know who owns the private room in this hotel? Then who will pay for the drinks if you are asked to do so?"
Yu Yue curled up her lips: "Mr. Liu, you don't know this. The major restaurants and brothels in Jiankang City have indeed been owned by major aristocratic families since the founding of the country.
The lobby is mostly under the jurisdiction and management of the shopkeepers, while the private rooms and seats above the second floor belong to members of aristocratic families. Every month, the stewards of each government will send someone to deliver last month's drinks and drinks, and the specifics
Which company it belongs to, I'm afraid most of the shopkeepers don't know."
Shopkeeper Li nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, that's what Mr. Yu said. This was the rule when I was an apprentice. Even when my former shopkeeper was an apprentice, the previous shopkeeper also said this. I
This little shopkeeper also depends on their expressions, and if any news leaks out, I'm afraid he won't even have his life!"
Liu Yu frowned: "This is the capital city under the emperor's feet. Is it possible to kill people and steal goods at will? Is there no royal law?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Slave, please tell me why I brought you here. I have known these things for a long time, but only if you experience it for yourself will you know that under the glitz of Jiankang City
, what kind of reality is it? Here, the lives of ordinary people are not as good as chickens and dogs, and they die quietly, and no one even cares about it. Over the past hundred years, the major families in Jiankang City have been entangled here, controlling various taverns.
, gambling houses, brothels and other places where money comes from, and most of the income in Jiankang City is not turned over to the state treasury."
