Chapter 1211 Tumi Tribe
Suiying began to argue with Yan Shizhao: "Yan Shizhao, I was there that day! He did release a snake, but he took it away soon after. He didn't hurt you at all! You look... you look really miserable. But this doesn't seem right. If you were really bitten by a snake, you should have died of poisoning on the spot. But you were able to come here to file a complaint on a donkey. It's really unbelievable!"
Facing Suiying's suspicion, Yan Shizhao's face turned red with anger. He roared, "It was him who let the snake bite me! Less than half an hour after you left, countless snakes crawled towards my cave. Although they were not poisonous, there were so many of them that I almost lost my life! Fortunately, I know a little bit about medicine, and it took a lot of effort to save my life, otherwise I would have died long ago!"
Hearing this, Sui Ying couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, you were able to escape from so many snake bites, you are really lucky!" As he spoke, Sui Ying walked forward and carefully examined the wounds and spots on Yan Shizhao's body, then turned around and reported to Wan Lianxing: "Your Majesty, these scars on Yan Shizhao's body were indeed caused by snake bites."
Wan Lianxing was speechless at this time. After a moment of silence, he turned to the attendant beside him and ordered: "Go and ask a military doctor to come and treat Mr. Yan. Make sure that Mr. Yan's injuries are properly treated. Don't be negligent in the slightest."
However, Yan Shizhao was unexpectedly not grateful for Wan Lianxing's kindness! He even knelt on the ground, clasped his hands together, and said righteously: "Your Majesty, I don't need any military doctor to treat me! I just want to seek justice. Under the bright sky and clear sky, I don't believe that what I have experienced can't be justified! Since this person is your subordinate, then I dare to ask Your Majesty to give me an explanation in person!"
Wan Lianxing knew that this matter was of great importance and would be criticized if not handled properly. He looked at Yan Shizhao solemnly and asked solemnly, "Okay, let me hear what you want to say."
Yan Shizhao said sharply: "First, the emperor's people bully others by taking advantage of their power, which is an even greater crime. Second, he regards the lives of ordinary people as worthless, which is unforgivable. Third, he uses witchcraft to commit crimes, which is unforgivable and unforgivable. All three of the above crimes are capital crimes, so in my opinion, this person should be sentenced to death."
"Killing Sui Dan is definitely not an option. He has made great contributions to Fengqi and will be useful in the future!" Sha Guanghan stood up again at this time, filing a complaint to the emperor alone, and the person he filed a complaint against was his own confidant. Isn't this a slap in the face of the emperor? Sha Guanghan knows a little about Wan Lianxing. The people around Wan Lianxing are all in his heart, and he is reluctant to touch any of Wan Lianxing!
Yan Shizhao said: "Can the emperor's people rely on their power to take human lives and do evil? Can the lives of ordinary people be slaughtered so cheaply? It is said that King Shuiyong loves the people like his own children. Humph! Now I don't think it is credible. If the emperor protects and indulges his trusted subordinates like this, then you can't bear the people's trust and love for you! Everything you do is just a cover for your struggle for power and profit."
Suiying pointed at Yan Shizhao and said, "How dare you, Yan Shizhao, to question the emperor's virtue is disrespectful!"
Yan Shizhao was unyielding and shouted loudly: "If you want me not to question it, then kill Sui Dan and redress the injustice for me."
Seeing this man's aggressiveness, Wan Lianxing could only hold his breath and look at Suiying calmly, saying, "Send someone to bring Suidan back and hand him over to Mr. Yan for disposal."
Sui Ying knew that Wan Lianxing was reluctant to kill Sui Dan. If he had, he would have died many times. Yan Shizhao looked a little miserable after being bitten by a snake, but he was not as miserable as Huang Chenming back then. Huang Chenming had a narrow escape in Duanlu Forest. Even so, Wan Lianxing did not think of killing Sui Dan. Isn't Yan Shizhao forcing the emperor?
Suiying's mind was spinning rapidly, and he continued to argue with Yan Shizhao: "Yan Shizhao, we had been walking for half an hour that day when you were attacked by the snakes. How could you be sure that the snakes were released by Suidan? Also, how did you determine that Suidan was using witchcraft? You can find a few snake charmers on the street. Suidan just raised a poisonous snake for fun! It doesn't seem as heinous as you said!"
Yan Shizhao pointed at Suiying and said, "You are making up stories. This person is not a true beggar, nor is he from Dalang."
"Do you know Sui Dan better than we do? Sui Dan is a beggar who has always lived with us. He doesn't know any witchcraft. We can punish him, but we can't frame him." Sui Ying didn't believe what Yan Shizhao said without any basis. It was difficult for outsiders to sow discord among them, and Yan Shizhao couldn't do that either.
"You all know where this man is from. He comes from a foreign country. Even if he looks the same as you, the blood flowing in his bones is different from yours. If he continues to act so recklessly, he will definitely bring disaster to the people in the future." Yan Shizhao's words were very sharp.
"If Sui Dan and I didn't know each other well, I would have believed your words. What foreign lands are we talking about? Sui Dan has never been out of Dalang and Fengqi. Mr. Yan, you overestimate him!"
"Do you think I'm talking nonsense?"
"Did you? As soon as you closed your upper lip and lower lip, he became a foreigner of unknown origin. Why don't you say he was a spy for the emperor? Everything must have a basis. You can't make up a story here just to convict Sui Dan, saying that he is a foreigner and knows some kind of witchcraft."
"If you don't believe me, you can sleep in the same room with him at night and listen to what language he speaks when he talks in his sleep."
Wan Lianxing's expression changed again and again when he heard this, because Sui Dan always said some incomprehensible words when he was unconscious. He always regarded Sui Dan's incomprehensible words as bird talk. But seeing Yan Shizhao's words so confidently, he must know something, so he said: "Mr. Yan, you can just speak directly."
Yan Shizhao said: "It seems that you still don't know the origin of this Sui Dan! He comes from a mysterious tribe in the southern Yan Kingdom - the Tumi tribe!"
Suiying was puzzled. "Oh, I just came back from the Southern Yan Kingdom! I haven't heard of it! Isn't Tumi a flower? Does the Tumi tribe grow flowers?"
