Chapter 50: Captured
Yin Ji, who was next to him, stepped forward and grabbed the collar of the official, just wanting to teach him a lesson, but was pulled by Gao Yun and signaled him not to be impulsive. Gao Yun also knew that these people were probably here to arrest the eldest brother, so he gave Yin Ji a look and asked him to go to the backyard to tell the eldest brother to run away quickly, while he continued to deal with the official errand, and said: "Below is Gao Yun, the martial champion of the current department, what advice do the officials have?" ”
After hearing this, the officials instantly changed their faces, but when they saw Yin Ji running to the backyard alone, they wanted to stop him, but because of Gao Yun's face, they had to smile and say: "It turned out to be Gao Xianggong, we are also ordered to do things, and I also ask Gao Xianggong to tell Lu Zuo's whereabouts!" ”
"You officials handle cases, where can you ask me, and you have the ability to find it yourself."
Just as Gao Yun was speaking, a loud voice came from behind the courtyard, "Are you looking for me here?" ”
When Gao Yun looked back, he was stunned in place, and Yin Ji behind Lu Zuo spread his hands helplessly to Gao Yun.
Like hungry dogs seeing meat, those officials took out the ropes around their waists and rushed forward frantically, where could Gao Yun let these people make a mistake, spread his arms to block the intersection, intercepted the officials at the waist, and then pushed all these officials out of a foot away. When those officials saw that Gao Yun was infinitely powerful and that he was the champion of today's martial arts, they didn't dare to make another mistake. He could only stand up slowly and complained, and said: "Master Zhuangyuan, we are acting impartially, if Lu Zuo resists arrest, according to the laws of my court, it will be a capital crime." ”
Lu Zuo said unhurriedly at this time: "Did I say I wouldn't go with you?" ”
Several officials were also stunned after hearing this, Gao Yun was also very anxious at the moment, came to Lu Zuo's side, and asked Yin Ji in an anxious low voice, "Didn't you let you take your eldest brother away?" ”
Yin Ji frowned and said innocently, "Do you think I can stop Master?" ”
Gao Yun pulled Lu Zuo's sleeve again, and whispered in his ear: "Big brother, I'll help you hold it, you go quickly." ”
Lu Zuo looked at a few down-and-out officials, didn't pay attention to Gao Yun's question, and only waved his hand to signal that there was no need to say any more, but Lu Zuo stepped forward and came to the front of the official messenger to tie his hands and arrest him, and said loudly: "Let's go!" ”
The officials looked at each other, and then, as if they had received an order, stepped forward and tied Lu Zuo with a rope to make it strong.
At this time, there were more and more onlookers on the side, and Yin Ji was also so anxious that his face was red, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and hugged Lu Zuo at the waist, and several officials looked at Gao Yun, but they didn't dare to stop it too much. Yin Ji shouted again and again: "Master, you are gone, what should you do with the apprentice?" I'm not going to let them take you. ”
"Ji'er, don't worry, Master is just going to cooperate with the investigation and will come back in a few days! You follow your sophomore brother honestly, don't get into trouble, you know? Lu Zuo said, and motioned to Gao Yun to pull Yin Ji back.
Gao Yun reluctantly stepped forward to pull Yin Ji away, and persuaded him with good words, but Yin Ji still held on. Lu Zuo said with a straight face: "Do you remember what Master told you at the beginning? You just do what the teacher says, but you can't save me like that. ”
As if he had received an order, Yin Ji suddenly let go of his hand, and when he raised his head, he was already in tears, but he still held back his choked and said, "Master, then you have to do it well." ”
Lu Zuo nodded meaningfully and said, "Hmm! Rest assured, the teacher will come back safe and sound. ”
Gao Yun and Yin Ji watched the officials take Lu Zuo away, and when Lu Renxiang came out of the room to see what was going on outside, the people had already been taken away, leaving only Gao Yun and Yin Ji stunned.
"Gao Yun! Is something wrong with my brother? Just now, the shopkeeper said that a few officials arrested him, is it true? What about him now? Lu Renxiang was already anxious.
Gao Yun sighed, nodded, and then looked at Yin Ji, "Yin Ji, what did your master tell you just now?" ”
Yin Ji pondered: "Master said to go find Uncle Pingyuan!" ”
"Oh! Yeah! Gao Yun slapped his hand, and turned sadness into joy, "Only Uncle Pingyuan can save him now." ”
"Without further ado, let's go." Lu Renxiang said excitedly.
When Lu Renxiang and the three of them came to the Earl's Palace, it was already noon. And An Yuanshan waited for Lu Zuo in the house in the morning, but he didn't see him coming, when the housekeeper came to tell the current civil and military champions Lu Renxiang and Gao Yun to visit, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, so he hurriedly ordered someone to bring the hall to meet.
An Yuanshan waited for the three of them to enter the hall, and before they could greet each other, Lu Renxiang led Gao Yun and Yin Ji to kneel down directly for An Yuanshan, begging the earl to save Lu Zuo.
"What are you doing! One of you is the champion of the dynasty, the other is the champion of martial arts, and the other is Mr. Lu's senior disciple, where can I afford such a big gift. If you have something to say, sit down and speak slowly! An Yuanshan was also taken aback, and while inviting them to take a seat, he asked, "Renxiang, what happened to your brother?" ”
"My brother was arrested by the government, and the people who came didn't say why, they just tied him up." Lu Renxiang's eyes burst into tears, "Sir, you can save him!" ”
After the four of them sat down, An Yuanshan thought for a while, and said, "I didn't expect the prince to do something to Mr. Lu!" ”
Gao Yun interjected: "Is it for the sake of King Wei's rebellion?" My eldest brother was not involved in this matter, so he did something to arrest him. ”
An Yuanshan shook his head and said that he didn't understand either, "Lu Zuo has no fame now, and he has something to do with King Wei, plus he offended the crown prince, and it is easy for them to cure Lu Zuo's crimes." ”
"What then?" Yin Ji and the three of them asked almost in unison.
An Yuanshan pondered with his eyebrows, this matter is indeed very tricky, and now he is in such a situation that he is not up or down is also very embarrassing, although he has some power in the court, but Lu Zuo offended the prince, and now if he uses his own power to rescue Lu Zuo, it is tantamount to exposing himself and the prince are in opposition, so it is categorical to do this, go to King Ning? That's the only way to do it now, and when I made an appointment with Lu Zuo today, it was also for this matter. But now that he went to King Ning and begged him to help save Lu Zuo, I don't know if he would risk confronting the prince for this matter.
"Sir......" Lu Renxiang interrupted An Yuanshan's thoughts, "Is there any way?" ”
An Yuanshan raised his head and looked at the three of them, and suddenly came to his heart, "Now that King Wei is plotting against the case, the saint will be handed over to the three divisions for trial, but as far as I know, in addition to the Yushitai, the criminal department and Dali Temple are all people of King Ning, as long as we ask King Ning to make a move, there will definitely be a glimmer of life." ”
Lu Renxiang hesitated: "But will King Ning take the risk of offending the crown prince for the sake of his brother?" ”
"It's hard to say right now! We'll find out when we go. An Yuanshan gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, the matter has come to this, and he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
It's March, and many border countries are starting to move, and after a winter of soldiers, they can finally start looting. The Great Fan State in the west of the Han State united with the Qita State to annex Shanzhou, and the Shanzhou Jiedu envoy was killed, and then the enemy army was besieging Lanzhou, and the frontier was in an emergency. When Kyoto received the battle report, the Han government and the opposition were all shocked, so the Han Emperor immediately summoned the old marshal Zhou Zhongwang, as well as the prime minister Li Shizhi and the military secretary Xu Bingde to meet and discuss the strategy of dealing with the enemy.
