Lu You was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that the matter had reached such a serious point. Crickets are an ordinary insect, what is so attractive? It's really embarrassing to make these people go crazy and play with them.

"Virtuous nephew, have you ever taken care of it? If this thing is not blocked, it may not be long before it will be transmitted to this Lin'an City. ”

"It has already been spread, even in Jianyang County, there are people who start playing, sooner or later, the entire Great Song Dynasty will be over, and at that time, it will be the time when the Great Song Dynasty will die.

The two fell silent, knowing full well that the matter had to be taken seriously.

The hundred officials outside the palace had already left in a sedan chair, and only Lu You, Song Ci and others were left at this moment.

"Virtuous nephew, now that Lu is the director of the Criminal Prison Department, what will you do if I order you to arrest these fighting crickets?"

Song Ci said: "Lord Lu, you mean that the Criminal Department is going to give an order?" Aren't you afraid of offending the people in the court?"

He said disdainfully: "What's wrong with Lu's order to prohibit playing with crickets?" This is also gambling, virtuous nephew, you can prohibit everyone from playing crickets in the name of gambling, if something happens, Lu You will carry it for you. ”

Song Ci said happily: "Then thank you Lord Lu, I will return to Changting County immediately, this matter is no longer allowed to be delayed."

Lu You nodded and said: "There is also a virtuous nephew, in the past ten years, you have participated in the pacification of the rebellion in Fujian, and participated in the great battle to pacify the thieves of the three mountains, which can be described as a great achievement.

Song Ci said: "Lord Lu, you are like this, Song is embarrassed, he is only a magistrate now, and he has no other skills, if someone in Changting County rebels, Song will take him down."

In this way, Song Ci is not a nonsense, but the truth, once the thief grows up, he will be a mortal threat to the Great Song Dynasty.

Lu You was very satisfied with this, and then said: "Since this is the case, then Song Xian's nephew, you quickly return to Changting County to stop the people from continuing to fight crickets, and at the same time, Lu will propose to the emperor from time to time to restore your status as a criminal officer, and I must be cured of the Song Dynasty officialdom."

Song Ci received the order, and Wencheng had a round of civil and military affairs, then got into the carriage and immediately went to Changting County.

On the way, Wen Cheng said: "My lord, what did you say to Lord Lu You just now?" Why can you talk for so long?"

Song Ci said: "What are you talking about?" It's not about the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, or about the crickets in Changting County, but with Lu Darao's support, Song is even bolder at the moment. ”

"Support? Could it be that this Lord Lu is behind him to support the adults to stop the people from playing crickets? Only..... It's just that Shi Jia Shi knows about this system, will he come out to oppose it again?"

Song Ci said: "This problem, Song can't control so much, this time, even if he doesn't do this county, Song must also stop it, otherwise, the country will not be the country."

Wen Cheng Wenwu was silent, and his heart said that it was okay to be like this, there was finally a Qing official in the imperial court, and I hope that he could continue to support Song Ci and support this Changting County.

On the front line, if the soldiers can be more brave and kill more enemies, in this way, the great country can be consolidated.

"Wencheng Wenwu, after we return to Changting County, you will immediately take the officers and soldiers to close all the cricket shops for me, arrest all the shopkeepers and fill the army, and if you don't comply, you will serve with sticks."

"Yes, my lord." They were very satisfied.

As soon as Song Ci returned to Yamen, he ordered Wencheng Wenwu and others to arrest people with officers and soldiers, and capture the thief and capture the king first.

"Wencheng Wenwu, you take people to arrest the shopkeeper of the cricket shop, Ren You, you take people to the casino, arrest all the casino owners, let's come one by one, this kind of thing can't be rushed.

"Yes, my lord." They acted immediately.

Qin Yue and Xiaoxiang walked over, "My lord, you went to Lin'an here, did you encounter something?" Why, these people are being arrested today?"

Song Ci said: "Miss Yue, you don't understand, Song was still too bold before, but now with the support of Lu Darao, the director of the Criminal Department, what else is there to be afraid of at this moment?"

"The head of the Criminal Department? No, this position has been vacant, is it Darao? Why, why did you become Lord Lu at this moment?"

Song Ci didn't care at all, and said indifferently: "Yue Xiaoxiang, it seems that you still don't understand Song, look at it, Da Song is already like this?" What if it's just sitting as prime minister? Who can guarantee that the Great Song Dynasty will exist for ten or twenty years?"

"Besides, not only is there a Jin man, but Mongolia is also eyeing my Great Song Dynasty, this Genghis Khan, he wants to destroy my Great Song Dynasty heart and not die!"

The two of them were suddenly silent, they had been following Song Ci for so long, and they still didn't understand Song Ci, and they were a little ashamed.

"Yue Xiaoxiang, you take someone to vacate the cell immediately, by the way, all the prisoners inside are released, if you are willing to come to my Song Moumi, it will be the best."

"Yes." They also walked out.

Only Song Ci was still sitting in the lobby at the moment, and at the back of the house, Yu Shi walked out, brought a cup of hot tea and put it on the table.

"Husband, you're too tired to rush back this way, why don't you stop and drink hot tea!" Song Ci smiled when he heard this: "It's still Mrs. who is reasonable, and only Mrs. understands me, and it's really hard for you to follow me for so many years."

Yu said: "Marry a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, if you are a beggar, husband, I will also ask for food with you, if you become the emperor...

"Don't!"

Song Ci hurriedly interrupted: "Madam, you don't want to say things like this, if you are heard by people with ulterior motives, not only you and me, but even Yue and them will have to suffer, do you know?"

Yu said: "It's me talking nonsense, husband, I hope you don't mind."

Song Ci didn't think much about it, if this was heard by Cao, Tang and Wu, he would definitely be made a fuss, Song Lizong was no better than Song Ningzong, and at that time, all his people would have to die.

After a long time, the first to return was Wencheng Wenwu, and they soon walked into the yamen with more than ten cricket shop shopkeepers, and the two of them shouted loudly, and everyone knelt down on the lin.

"Daring, do you know what crime you have committed?"

They were trembling, they didn't know what was wrong with them, and at the same time, where did Pang Feizhi County in Changting County go? Why don't you see this person?

Someone stood up and asked, "Who is in the hall?" I've been in Changting County for decades, why haven't I seen you? Bold, dare to pretend to be the magistrate, I think you know what crime you have committed?"

Song Ci said: "The reason why Song Mou appeared here naturally has his own reasons, Wen Cheng, why don't you tell them!"

"Yes, my lord." Wen Chengli shouted: "The former magistrate of Changting County, due to corruption and perversion of the law, has been beheaded by our adults, and now this is our Xinzhi County, haven't you seen your lords?"

They exclaimed, seeing that this did not look like a fake, so they all knelt down on the lin.

"Lord Zhixian, we are all honest businessmen, and we have never done anything bad, I don't know, why did you arrest us?"

Song Ci looked at them coldly, "Arrest you, naturally there is a reason for Song to arrest you, now let me ask you, who made you sell crickets at a high price on the street?" Did you know it's gambling?"

Everyone realized the problem, and they were scared to death at the moment, the old county was taken, and this new county seemed to be bad.

Originally, there were people who were fearless, but at this moment, they felt timid, and they could see that Song Ci was very different from Pang Fei, and this person should be a clean official.

“... My lord, it's just selling crickets, is this also a violation of the laws of the Great Song Dynasty? Besides, after this group of people bought it, it was their business to gamble, and it had nothing to do with it!"
