When Wang Jiu heard the cheers from hundreds of thousands of people, he realized that he was sure to win.

The most difficult step in the entire plan is to step on the stage. Once you successfully take the stage, the rest will be to go with the flow and it will be completely unstoppable.

Concubine Shang Lan is very charming. With Wang Jiu's current fantasy swordsmanship, he can only simulate one-tenth of a real person at most, but this is enough to shock the millions of people in Jinyu City. He is not just a second-rate and third-rate actress who can compare.

How could a woman who was ranked as the Nine Immortals with Zhao Chenlu back then be comparable to an actress who came to power with unspoken rules?

So when Wang Jiu launched the magic sword technique and appeared on stage in the manner of Concubine Shang Lan, he immediately took the initiative of the audience. The well-trained silver armored soldiers did not dare to approach for a while. It was not until Zhao Hongwu roared repeatedly that he reluctantly surrounded Wang Jiu with his weapons in his hand, but he still did not dare to take action.

Zhao Hongwu was so angry that he said: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you catch her away!"

Wang Jiu sneered: "Catch me? Why? Which law did I violate? I deserve to arrest people in full view of you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, hundreds of thousands of people around echoed.

"Yes, why should I catch her?? Which law did she violate?"

"Even Zhao Chenlu's harsh policies do not prohibit such a beautiful girl from saving her sweetheart!"

"Even if Zhao Chenlu is wrong, this girl is innocent!"

Hundreds of thousands of people talked and only made the city boil. Zhao Hongwu had a headache, gritted his teeth, and responded loudly: "I am not trying to arrest her, but today is an important moment for the public trial meeting. Order must be maintained, so she must be asked to leave..."

Wang Jiu said: "However, when I saw you put on the stage and put out subtitles, I thought you were going to continue to perform the final scene in the name of love."

Zhao Hongwu was stunned when he heard this. Of course, his intention was to stage the sixth act written by the two brothers in front of millions of gold and jade men, but in this situation, how could there be enough to perform a musical?

So Zhao Hongwu looked straight: "Just, there is no musical matter on such an important occasion in the public trial conference!"

Wang Jiu turned around and said to the audience: "Master Zhao Hongwu said that he won't perform today."

The next moment, a tsunami rolled in.

"Why don't you act?? We have to see it in the name of love!"

“Watch the performance, watch the performance!”

"Whoever doesn't let us watch musicals is our enemy!"

Zhao Hongwu was really a top ten, and quickly explained: "It's not that he won't perform, but that the performance time was postponed. We originally booked a public trial meeting in the morning, and invited many guests, including the Shengzong, to do so, and the time was not easy to postpone. After the public trial meeting ended, the stage would be immediately staged in the name of love, okay?"

Zhao Hongwu felt so frustrated when he said these words.

As the city lord, although he is still just a temporary city lord, he still compromised with others in public in such a humble manner... his face was really ruined.

Thinking about Zhao Chenlu's office, not to mention the shouts of millions of people, even if there are tens of millions of people, it cannot withstand her whim. No one can stop what she wants to do.

Unfortunately, Zhao Hongwu was not Zhao Chenlu after all, so he had to endure the grief and anger in his heart to please the people.

But the people didn't buy it.

"That's your business, we don't care!"

"We must look at the name of love! If we don't show it, we will rebel!"

“Watch the performance, watch the performance!”

At this point, it had become a fanatical farce. Zhao Hongwu gritted his teeth and his soul was madly turbulent, forming clear pictures in his mind: As a great monk in Paishan Realm, Zhao Hongwu called for the wind and rain, causing dark natural disasters to bury millions of unruly people.

However, all this can only happen in my mind. In reality, Zhao Hongwu had to continue to explain patiently: "The venue is limited and the time is limited, so there must be a sequence..."

The audience immediately cheered: "Look at the musical first!"

"It's boring not to watch the public trial meeting!"

“Watch the performance, watch the performance!”

Zhao Hongwu really couldn't bear it: "Do you want to rebel?"

At this time, some gods below shouted loudly: "Learn from the city lord!"

This sentence is sharper than a knife. It made Zhao Hongwu on the stage want to die. His position as the temporary city lord was originally achieved through rebellion. At this time, he was shouted out by the Jinyu Man, and it was really hard to tell.

Fortunately, among the many guests Zhao Hongwu invited, someone who was willing to speak out for justice finally stood up.

"You are understandable, but things do need to be in a sequence, prioritizing and urgent. Although the musical is wonderful, the public trial meeting is still more important in the end, so please be careful not to be impatient."

If others said these high-sounding words, there would definitely be booing in the audience. However, even the most tricky and unlucky people were silent at this time.

Because the person who speaks is the envoy of the Holy Sect.

From the perspective of the Holy Sect, they almost never interfere with the internal affairs of the seven major families. As long as they do not endanger the safety of the mainland or may cause disaster in life, they will not interfere even if they are beaten up inside the family.

However, once you take action, you will never give up until you achieve your goal. However, with the means of the envoy of the Holy Sect, if you do your best, you will rarely fail. After all, the reputation of the Holy Sect is not achieved through word of mouth, but through real achievements.

So as soon as the envoy of the Holy Sect spoke, the noise in the square gradually faded, and those who took the lead in making excitement shrugged and closed their mouths unwillingly.

After clarifying the order, the envoy of the Holy Sect nodded to Zhao Hongwu, then took a few steps back and returned to the guest seat, and no longer interfered.

Zhao Hongwu was finally relieved after receiving an amnesty and said, "Thank you for your cooperation. Next, we are preparing to hold a public trial meeting and ask the idle people to leave first..."

As he said that, he gave the silver-armored soldiers another gesture, signaling them to clear the scene quickly.

However, before the silver-armored soldiers came forward, Wang Jiu said, "Wait! The temporary city lord said that the idle people and others left the scene. As Zhao Chenlu's agent, I have the power and obligation to stay here to defend her!"

"Just, this is a public trial meeting, not a debate venue, and there is no need to set up any agent!"

Wang Jiu said: "It is precisely because it is the public trial meeting that there are millions of audiences on the scene that a clean result is needed, rather than your unilateral speech."

Zhao Hongwu gritted his teeth and said, "All the evidence is authoritatively certified, and there is no need to listen to your argument!"

Wang Jiu said: "You suppressed the greatest authority of Jinyu City under the City Lord's Mansion. If you think that powerful force can represent authority and do whatever you want, then why do you have to summon million people to public trial? Isn't it okay to directly execute Zhao Chenlu? Are you playing with the princes in the beacon and teasing the sincere feelings of millions of Jinyu people? Since today is a public trial meeting, I think it is necessary to listen to the public's opinions. May I ask, do you think Zhao Chenlu needs an agent to defend her?"

This question was responded like a tsunami.

"Need, needed!"

"We have to see the beautiful girl talking to the scholars!"

"Choose her as an agent, choose her as an agent!"

"You..." Zhao Hongwu really wanted to crush everyone to death, "Okay, even if you need an agent, why is it you? What qualifications do you have to be Zhao Chenlu's agent?"

Wang Jiu said: "With my relationship with Zhao Chenlu, I can be regarded as a close relative, so I am naturally qualified to be her agent at the public trial meeting."

When talking about his relationship with Zhao Chenlu, Zhao Hongwu suddenly remembered someone: "If you say you have something to do with her, you have something to do? If you really want to care about the agent you are close to, I am the real one here!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and signaled that Zhao Xinyu would appear.

A moment later, Zhao Xinyu walked onto the stage and said loudly to the millions of people: "I'm sorry, I'm just a fake, an actor who has been invited in advance. Everything is to cover up the real protagonist's appearance today. Please forgive my previous lies."

Zhao Hongwu's eyes were ripped off: "Zhao Xinyu, what are you talking nonsense!?"

Zhao Xinyu replied honestly: "Sir, you taught me to read the lines."

Zhao Hongwu was stunned for a moment before remembering that according to the original script, the public trial conference should have been the sixth act of the musical, and he took the opportunity to launch his designated female lead, and then abolished Zhao Xinyu's identity. The original designed lines are indeed like this. Zhao Xinyu himself stood up and admitted that he was a fake, and the real one was the heroine in the musical... But now the plot is completely messed up, and this bastard is still reading the lines according to the original script!

"You did it on purpose!"

Zhao Xinyu said: "Sir, you warned me before that if I dared to perform on my own and didn't read according to the lines, I would be doomed..."

"You..." Zhao Hongwu was so angry that he was about to faint, but now he knew that he could not let these bastards slap things and waste time.

In front of everyone, the more they talked, the more omissions they would be, especially the millions of people. While laughing at the jokes of him as the temporary city lord, they began to become more and more distrust the various legends about Zhao Chenlu that had been circulating in the city.

Zhao Hongwu controls the united formation and can clearly feel that the changes in public opinion have been undercurrents, just like a volcano ready to go. With just one opportunity, it will erupt completely. If you let it go, you may lose all your efforts!

"...Okay, you want to be Zhao Chenlu's agent. Then, anyway, her numerous crimes are as proof as a mountain, and it cannot be changed by your sweet words!"
Chapter completed!
