Chapter 89
The two of them were in a mess, but the two of them were in a mess.
"Director Lu, Mu Qing is in the Wu Mansion, and he won't give us justice."
"Yes, Mu Qing is Mu Bai's uncle, and he has always been the umbrella of protection for the beast Mu Bai."
"Director Lu, you must make the decision for us."
Others didn't want Director Lu to leave like this, and even the woman and the old man grabbed Director Lu's trouser legs directly.
Under the gaze of everyone, Director Lu didn't dare to avoid or push away. Under the public eye, all actions would be infinitely magnified.
"Director Lu, you are the one who is expected by the public, and you can't let the people down. If we don't give an explanation to the people of Yunzhou today, how can we leave?" Chairman Deng said, strike while the iron is hot, want to leave? No, you must stay here today to deal with these things for me.
"But the task given to me by the Ministry of War is to deal with the affairs of Li Weiyi and Mu Bai. It's not appropriate for me to intervene in these matters." Director Lu looked embarrassed.
"The affairs of Li Weiyi and Mu Bai only involve a few people, but the affairs here involve 200 million people. There are priorities. I personally think that the affairs of 200 million people are more important. What do you think, Director Lu?" Chairman Deng said righteously.
"I... Of course I also think that the affairs of 200 million people are more important." What else can Director Lu say? If he dares to say anything else, he can step down today. The Federation is not dominated by the Lu family alone.
"In this case, call all the people from the Wu Mansion, bring the files of these matters, and deal with the affairs in front of 200 million people. No one is allowed to leave before they are dealt with. All the people from the Warrior Association, come out to maintain order and prepare logistics. We can't let our people go hungry and thirsty." Chairman Deng waved his hand and said.
"Yes, President." The secretary beside him quickly issued an order.
"Judge Xie, call the judges in the court. All violations of the law will be handled according to the law and will not be tolerated. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Judge Xie also picked up the phone and began to notify.
Soon, the people of the Warrior Association began to take out tents and set up temporary offices directly. President Deng personally took charge, looking like he would not rest until the matter was dealt with.
Food and drinking water supply points began to be set up one by one for free use by all the people.
Led by Chen Chao, all the people from the Wu Mansion arrived, and all the people from the Intermediate Court also arrived.
All mainstream media were invited to come forward and broadcast the events here live.
Such a big move has attracted the attention of the entire Nanling region.
The president of the regional warrior association and the head of the military department personally conveyed the order, and they must give the people a satisfactory explanation.
Chairman Deng smiled. The nature of the matter had been determined. Unless the Martial Emperor intervened, Mu Bai would not be able to escape.
He had already said hello to Chen Chao yesterday. No matter what, Mu Bai would be convicted today, and then Mu Qing would step down.
There were records of the Yuncheng Wusi case, and all the evidence pointed out Mu Bai's crimes, as well as Mu Qing's abuse of power and covering up the facts.
Under the irrefutable evidence and the overwhelming trend, Director Lu, Mu Quan, and Mu Qing were powerless to resist.
"Silence!" Judge Xie knocked on the table with a wooden hammer, and everyone fell silent. The verdict was announced.
"The defendant Mu Bai, guilty of intentional injury, rape, intentional homicide, robbery, and disturbing public order, was sentenced to death and deprived of his rights for life, to be executed immediately." Judge Xie pronounced.
As for Mu Qing, the Martial Master, he needed to be tried by the Regional High Court, but the result was doomed to be bad.
"Good!"
"Great!"
"Thank you, Wufu!"
Overwhelming cheers rang out from the square in front of the Wufu Association, and applause was thunderous. People in many places in the Nanling region cheered. Mu Bai was executed, which was very gratifying!
"Everyone, please be quiet." President Deng stood up.
The cheers of the people stopped. After this incident, President Deng's prestige in front of the people was greatly enhanced.
President Deng was very satisfied. To put it in a bad way, he was unable to govern and caused such a storm.
But to put it in a good way, he gave a reasonable explanation to the 200 million people in Yunzhou, which can also be said to be a great achievement.
He has a teacher, Wu Wang, and the characterization of this matter as a good thing is basically set in stone.
"There have been so many injustices in Yunzhou, and I, as the president, am not competent enough. I would like to say sorry to all the people first." President Deng bowed to the people.
"Pa pa pa..." thunderous applause, President Deng's move raised the public's goodwill again.
"I have seen the handling of these grievances throughout. Mu Bai, the culprit, has pleaded guilty, but Mu Qing and many police officers in the Wufu concealed the facts and wronged innocent people, which is also a heinous crime."
"I now announce that Mu Qing's position as deputy governor will be immediately removed, and then handed over to the Ministry of War and the High Court for trial. As for the others, Governor Chen, he will be taken back to the prison immediately and wait for the court trial." President Deng announced.
"Yes, President." Chen Chao responded.
"Yes, President." Judge Xie also agreed.
"Mr. President is mighty!"
"Mr. President is fair!"
Waves of neat shouts echoed in the sky. There will always be a day when grievances will be washed away, although this day has been too long for the victims.
The people began to disperse under the guidance of the staff of the Warrior Association. Li Weiyi sat in a tent and witnessed the whole process of the incident.
He remained silent, and no one knew what he was thinking. Mu Bai had been executed, but he was not too happy.
All these things, everything that the people care about, the people's grievances, may be seen by some people as pawns in the power struggle, and he is also one of the pawns, a pawn to overthrow Mu Qing, the deputy governor.
As for Mu Bai and him, in the eyes of some people, their affairs are always unimportant.
"Chairman Deng, now that other things have been dealt with, what about Li Weiwei's suspected intentional injury?" Director Lu spoke again.
He no longer dared to underestimate Chairman Deng Yue, who was a very difficult person. After arriving, everything showed that this was Chairman Deng's territory, and it operated according to his will.
The Mu family, with two martial masters, one of whom was the deputy governor, was no good.
"If I remember correctly, President Xie has just deprived Mu Bai of his lifelong rights. Does Director Lu understand what this means?" Chairman Deng pretended to be puzzled.
"I understand. I'll go back to the Military Department first. When President Deng is free, please come to the Military Department for tea. Let me show my hospitality." Director Lu said enthusiastically.
"Of course, of course. Maybe I will be transferred to Nanling City soon. Then there may be work that needs Director Lu's assistance." President Deng was equally enthusiastic.
"Haha, of course." Director Lu's mouth twitched. He wanted to use his status as a military department to hit the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to hit him back by saying that he would soon be promoted to the leader of the regional martial arts association.
