Chapter 186: I know that there are strange people in the world
"It's okay, it's okay," Peng Taigong smiled, "Yu Liang is so famous that he can't do bad things, and he won't risk losing hope just because of my famous scholars of the Pengcheng gentry." There was a sense of tragedy in his words.
Liu Gang was about to ask again, but immediately he understood and realized the subtle meaning inside.
Fame is sometimes a shackle. How did you do it in the past and build it up, then if you do something that goes against this image in the future, it will have adverse effects.
After understanding this, Liu Gang stopped asking.
Liu Miao said at this time: "Although that's the case, Brother Chen suddenly went to investigate the case, and there were still some small cases. This inevitably makes people feel that the style is not enough. Isn't it a separation from Yu Liang?"
"No, no," Zhang Taigong shook his head and asked with a smile, "Let me ask you, what did you think after the news about Chen Zhi and Yu Liang came out?"
"Me?" Liu Miao hesitated for a moment, looked at the eyes of the elders, but still said, "I think Chen Zhi is too impulsive."
Zhang Taigong asked again: "Then let me ask you, what did you think after hearing Chen Zhi's rumors of solving the case?"
Liu Miao did not hesitate this time and said, "He wanted to compare with Yu Jingshi Yu, but he felt... he felt that he was overestimating himself. One was that Yu Jingshi's reputation for determining cases was passed down from Luoyang. The other was that Yu Jingshi was responsible for the main cases, and he chose small rural cases, which was too big a difference."
After saying this, he immediately bowed and said, "I don't have any thoughts about Chen Zhi. These are all true feelings. I hope all elders can understand it."
"Okay, I understand." Liu Taigong waved his hand and said, "Do you know, why do you have such thoughts?"
"Why is there?" Liu Miao was stunned when he heard this, Peng Lin, Peng Qi and others also began to ponder.
Mr. Peng laughed and pointed at Mr. Liu and said, "You old man, don't be mysterious anymore, let me say it," he looked at many young people and cleared his throat. "Actually, it's simple. I ask you, if Chen Zhi was a master of judging cases, solved countless cases and never made any mistakes, then do you still think that he overestimated his ability in these things?"
Liu Miao and others were stunned.
Zhang Taigong also spoke out: "Actually, ignoring the identities of both parties in this matter, the key is to say that Chen Zhishi has a specialty in his profession. In his contempt, everyone acknowledged that Chen Zhi was not as good as him in determining cases. Of course, he felt that Chen Zhi was overestimating his abilities, so what Chen Zhi had to do was probably to reverse this impression."
After saying that, he smacked his lips and praised: "You said this master is indeed a good article. The truth in it is not limited to the master's way, and I can use a knife in normal times. I, Mr. Pengcheng, is indeed extraordinary!"
"So that's it." Liu Miao automatically ignored the following sentence and savored the elder's analysis. He felt that he had seen so much. He was indeed full of wisdom, and he was still too young when he was waiting for others.
Peng Lin asked: "Even if that's the case, it would be a bit exaggerated to say that he solved more than 30 cases in one day. It's probably true."
As he spoke here, suddenly a servant came from outside and hesitated in front of everyone.
Mr. Peng recognized that this man was his servant and asked, "What's wrong? But what news has come?"
As soon as the words were finished, the servants of the Liu family and Zhang family also arrived, and the three elders immediately smelled a slightest bit of wrong breath.
Of course, these servants did not dare to delay in front of the Venerable, and went straight to the topic: "The news has been confirmed. The gentleman of the Chen family has tried old cases in the library for the past three days, and has solved a total of 157 cases!"
This was just a bit lively and joking, but it became quiet in an instant.
After a while, I heard Liu Taigong speak out.
"Fifty-seventh case? This is even more exaggerated!" Chen Taigong shook his head, "But Chen Zhi's actions were consistent with his usual style."
"That," Liu Gang hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Grandfather, it's not a fifty-seven case, but... one hundred and fifty-seven!"
Liu Taigong suddenly stopped talking, took a deep breath, and looked at several old friends. Their faces were no longer shocked, but were confused.
One hundred and fifty-seven cases!
Three days!
one person!
This news has been circulating inside and outside Pengcheng County.
At the same time, in the Zhongzheng Mansion.
"The rumors of more than 30 cases are incorrect. In fact, they are fifty-seven cases. Eighty-seven are rumors. People think they are too exaggerated and take the initiative to reduce them in order to ensure safety. Otherwise, who can believe it if they say it out loud? However, this is also normal. People in the world look at things out of their hearts. Just like now, people in the city look at Yu Liang, as if they have forgotten that the real envoy is not his attendant censor."
Zuna, the chief minister of the county, was falling down a chess piece, and opposite him was the special envoy Zhang Ruo.
Zhang Ruo picked up a black chess and put it down without even looking at it.
Bang!
The chess pieces fell on the chessboard, and the blacks were connected together, like a rigorous and perfect cage, surrounding the Baizi, with strict rules. Following the Taiwei, he quietly picked up a few whitezis and put them into the box.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, you are very powerful." Zuna smiled slightly, "But, your Legal chess is too rigid and looks unparalleled, but as long as you calculate it correctly, you can still get out." After saying that, he fell down a white piece, and the white pieces immediately became a piece of jumping and free and easy artistic conception, as if a big dragon was about to fly up from the chessboard.
Zhang Ruo said, "Your chess path is as good as your will. It is as wonderful as an antelope hanging on its horns. There is no trace to be found. But when it is messy, it will only waste your energy, messing with others and yourself." As he spoke, he picked up another black spot and put it down.
Zuna looked at the chessboard and his expression changed slightly, but then he recovered. He shook his head and said, "You have not changed. You are so old-fashioned. Sooner or later, I ask you, do you really ignore this case?"
Zhang Ruo looked up at him and said lightly: "I just set up a chess formation and wait for the opponent's chess game to get rid of the chess game."
"You really value Chen Zhi, and I hope he won't let you down this time." Zuna smiled slightly, and a white word fell down, then reached out to grab a few black pieces and put them in the box, "How is this situation, this situation is not very good for you. I have mastered the initiative in this game of chess. How can you turn over?"
Zhang Ruo shook his head and did not make a move immediately, but said, "I remember when the Beijing players talked about Taoism, my grandson brother, you entered the Tao with my junior brother with metaphysics. Every game of chess is the advantage of the opening and mid-games, but my junior brother will be overtaken later, because my Legal chess reflects the law, majesty and general trend. It is not about one piece of the son and one place, but about the overall situation! This is also where you are not as good as my junior brother."
"Don't mention the past. It's not about talking about Taoism at this time," Zuna laughed, just pointed to the chessboard and said, "Don't talk about so many great principles, you're going to do it."
After the words came, footsteps came from outside the door, and their steps were rushing, which immediately attracted the attention of the two people in the game.
The person who came was Chen Qian. He first greeted the two of them in turn, then looked at Zhang Ruo, and wanted to speak but stopped.
Zuna said in a daze: "There is nothing to say. Zhang Zheng is the special envoy and his friend. There is no need to avoid it. If you have anything to do, tell me what you have."
Chen Qian then said, "It's news about Chen Zhi."
"Oh? Is it Chen Zhi's news?" Zhang Ruo immediately became interested, "Let me tell me, didn't he tell the case to be settled, but there was a result? How many cases have been cut?" The court magistrate seemed to have understood Chen Zhi's actions.
Zuna also looked interested.
Chen Qian said, "I am not satisfied with the two Shangguans. There is indeed news about Chen Zhi's case. It is said that it was... It was said that a total of 157 cases were cut within three days. As for the omissions, it is difficult to confirm, but I heard that there is almost no wrong judgment."
When he said this, both Zuna, who was smiling indifferently or Zhang Ruo were stunned for a moment.
"Three days one hundred and fifty-seven cases? Just like that, Marquis Jing is just like that." Zuna shook his head, sighed, then turned to look at Zhang Ruo, and asked, "Could it be that this is the general change you have to wait for?"
Zhang Ruo's lips curled, as if he had a smile, but then he raised his face and said, "Before I came, I didn't know that there was a Chen Shouyi in Pengcheng. Of course, this is not the general trend I have to wait for."
Zuna then asked, "What about now?"
Zhang Ruo stroked his beard and nodded, "I just realized that there are strange people in the world today!" After saying that, the man stood up and walked out, saying, "Shi Yan, I have to deal with some things here and prepare for the next changes, so I will take a step first." As soon as this finished speaking, Zhang Ruo's man was already outside the door.
Zuna stayed in the house, then slapped his thighs and said with a smile: "This person can't afford to lose. Seeing that the game was defeated, he actually fled in panic. If it weren't for the news from Chen Shouyi, how could he let him go? This person has been saved by Chen Shouyi once!"
Chen Qian next to him was shocked when he heard about it.
Not to mention the Zhongzheng joining the gang, but the news about Chen Zhi spread rapidly throughout the city, causing an uproar among all parties. Some people who disbelieve, some people who are surprised, some people who are surprised, some people who worship, some people who follow, and so on.
However, Pengcheng had long experienced Chen Zhi's changes and his reputation had long been throughout the city. Therefore, this time the reputation did not cause much ripples. The most direct manifestation is the five elements scale grid on the Baijia sign.
"There is still a little bit of a gap from the third box. Well, it will be almost done in a few days. In fact, the reputation of this case is nothing at all. It will not bring fame benefits in a short period of time. All I need is the title of a case-solving expert, and it is also easy to intervene in the case of the special envoy. I believe that the official envoy will contact me soon, huh?"
Just as he was thinking about it, Chen Zhi's expression changed, and he saw the sign in his heart tremble slightly. The famous gold liquid in the scale grid suddenly increased, and in a blink of an eye it filled the three grids, and then rushed towards the fourth grid!
