Chapter 160
Not only Yuan Jing, but also the people who were raising their arms and shouting were also silenced by this sentence.The huge venue was eerily quiet for a moment, and everyone looked at Lu Zhensheng, wondering what he would say next.

Seeing the crowd quiet down, Lu Zhensheng paused for a while, and then said: "One night more than a month ago, I sorted out the old documents from 60 years ago, and accidentally found a secret document. After reading it, Yuan Yuan and I both thought that he The confidentiality level should be top-secret, so I put it away, and I am going to discuss with the elders at the meeting the next day to decide how to deal with it. But I don’t know, my child came here specially to persuade me to go back to his mother’s birthday party I came to find me and heard the conversation between me and Yuan Yuan. This made him very curious about the content of the document. After I left the office, he sneaked in and took out the confidential document, but was caught on the spot."

In the crowd, a bolder young man asked loudly, "Master Lu, did he destroy the documents to cover up the facts?"

"No, the file is still in the file bag, and he hasn't had time to open it yet."

"Hey, that's strange. Although the crime of peeking at the government's secret documents is serious, since it is an attempt, it should be dealt with lightly according to the law. I think Mr. Ling is only in his teens. Considering his age, the result of the punishment will be different." It's lighter. How could he be charged as a wanted criminal and offered such a big reward?"

The young man's methodical analysis caused other people to become suspicious and start whispering.

Seeing that the situation seemed to be bad, Yuan Jing couldn't hold his breath, and said loudly: "I found out that he was peeking at the documents at the time! When his whereabouts were revealed, he tried to sneak up on me. If the guards hadn't arrived in time, the consequences might have been disastrous!"

Before the words fell, Lu Gongshang immediately retorted: "You are talking nonsense! The guards found me first, but you pretended to be an excuse for me. After sending them away, you immediately turned around and attacked me! If I don't run away, I'm so stupid !"

There was a burst of laughter at his bluntness.Yuan Jing wanted to say something more with a livid face, but the young man who had just asked the question in the audience spoke first: "Both sides have their own opinions, who should we trust? As the saying goes, the elders are respected, I think Yuan Yuan will definitely not lie. On the other hand, Young Master Lu has no hair on his mouth, so what he said may be a bit watery."

These words made Lu Gongshang very angry, but Yuan Jing turned his anger into joy, and he smiled and stroked his beard.

I only heard the young man say again: "However, I still can't understand what Yuan Yuan said. Everyone knows that although the Elders' Association does not deliberately require force, almost all the people who join the Elders' Association are skilled. I remember that as early as five Years ago, Yuan Yuan had reached the sixth level of the middle class. Even if he had made no progress in the past five years, his skill was not comparable to that of a mere young master. So I couldn't figure it out. Yuan Yuan's people, after being caught by Yuan Yuan on the spot, still have the guts to resist?"

Yuan Jing's joy turned into anger again, and he scolded with a stern face: "You little thief is a coward, so naturally it's not surprising to do anything!"

"Oh, so that's the case." The young man nodded solemnly, "It turns out that Master Lv is very courageous, so big that he became a wanted criminal. He hid in XZ for a long time and dared not show his face. It is really admirable. However, I still have one thing to think about. not understand"

"Mr. Lu said that after talking with you that night, you left together. But why did Mr. Yuan go back to Mr. Lu's office alone? It stands to reason that even if you want to find Mr. Lu again, you should know that he is not in the office."

"It's ridiculous, what is your identity? How dare you question my whereabouts?" Yuan Jing said angrily.

"Old Yuan Yuan is serious." Although he was reprimanded, the young man's eyes flashed a look of joy: the master said that the more he hops, the more suspicious everyone will think him, he is really self-inflicted!

Gathering his thoughts, the young man said without giving in: "The matter concerns the reputation of our beloved Second Elder, and more importantly, the future of his beloved son. I think it is necessary to ask all questions clearly. If Your Excellency If you think that I am just a mere commoner and not qualified to ask questions, please designate another nobleman with a noble background and a fair stand to thoroughly investigate this matter in public!"

The young man's upright and awe-inspiring words immediately aroused a sense of identity and resentment from most of the people present.

In a country like Sarangka, although there is no unbridgeable gap between nobles and commoners, as long as the strength is strong enough, fame and status, wealth and beauties are all within easy reach.But after all, there are very few people who are qualified to practice, and most of them are ordinary citizens throughout their lives.

In addition, Yuan Jing's blatant display of an outrageous attitude that common people have no right to intervene in political affairs is contrary to the enlightened atmosphere of the Chaohua Empire, which naturally arouses resentment.Some people have even started clamoring, calling on everyone to leave the square, so that Yuan Jing, a "noble man", can call himself a widow.

Seeing the public's grievances, although Yuan Jing was very unwilling, he could only give in with a livid face: "What else do you want to say, just say it!"

"Thank you for your success." The young man smiled slightly and said, "However, please answer my question first."

"Actually, the matter is very simple. I just wanted to get back something that was left in Elder Lu's office, so I went back. As for the gaffe just now, it was because such a simple action was misleading, and it was just a moment of desperation." Yuan Jing was also in the The old fox, who has been in politics for many years, came up with a simple but impeccable excuse in a short while, and even dismissed it, incidentally, to justify his gaffe just now.

"So that's it. Then, when you opened the door, you found Master Lu?"

Yuan Jing was afraid of falling into the trap again, and tried his best to perfect every detail: "Yes. When I approached the room, I found that the door was ajar, but I remember that when I left just now, Elder Lu had already closed it. I have some It was strange, but I didn’t think much about it. After opening the door, I happened to see the son of Yuan Yuan Lu standing in front of the cabinet, holding a bag of documents in his hand. I thought it was Yuan Yuan Lu who asked the child to come in to get something, and I just wanted to say hello to him. Knowing that he was surprised, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he made a move towards me."

Seeing that the young man didn't ask any more questions, as if he couldn't find any faults, Yuan Jing's next words became smoother: "Later, there was a commotion and the guards were alarmed, so he fled through the window. Fortunately, he forgot to bring his Take the documents. I think this is just a child's naughty moment, and it is not a big mistake. But after discussion, the elders agreed that he peeked at the top-secret documents first, and then attacked me, which is unforgivable. In addition, the guards have been unable to find any trace of him since then, so in desperation, they had no choice but to issue a warrant."
