Although Lu Fang has no experience in officialdom, after all, the three generations of his ancestors are all from the public family, and his family education is naturally not shallow; Master Kong made up this statement tonight, and he didn't bother to listen to it at all, let alone listen to it, because there were many loopholes and flaws. So, Lu Fang immediately waved his hand to interrupt his performance:

"Without further ado, the officer is asking where are the three key criminals now? Have you already died in the fire? ”

The people in the public door have their own set of means for the people in the public door. Like this trick played by Master Kong, even if it was a real trick, he didn't want to hide it from Lu Fang at all. What kind of crime is this, three criminals escaped from prison and set fire? It is clear that he acted without a purpose, and after killing the suspect privately, he set a fire in an attempt to destroy the corpse. The story he made up doesn't need to be logical at all, as long as there is a statement handed over to the ministry, there will naturally be someone in Yanjing City who can help him get through.

Of course, someone needs to bear the responsibility if something happens, even if it is really an accidental fire or lax guarding, there must be someone who will bear the responsibility. According to the usual practice in officialdom, this kind of carelessness leads to accidents, usually by splashing dirty water on an insignificant petty official; After a few years, as soon as the rumors have passed, it will be okay to give some benefits. And today's so-called accident, after all, is related to the allies of Youbei, so it is personally put on the black gauze hat of the four-grade magistrate of the Xilin Governor's Mansion, which can be regarded as an explanation.

Therefore, Lu Fang believes that Fu Yi and the others should have been left in the fire by them; But he didn't expect Master Kong to hear this, raise his hand to wipe the black ash on his face, and proudly said with his chest straight:

"Please rest assured! Lax supervision and causing the fugitives to set fire to the government is already a crime of dereliction of duty and negligence by the lower officials. Lord Lu, please see, the three criminals are now in ...... law" Speaking of this, Lord Kong raised his hands and slapped three times in a row, and several officials pushed three wooden carts and stopped in front of Lu...

Lu Fang took advantage of the burning fire of the palace to see a high white cloth on each wooden cart; But just looking at the confident appearance of the Kong Governor's Mansion, he couldn't guess, or didn't want to confirm, what kind of objects were covered under these three white cloths......

Master Kong walked straight to the middle of the first wooden cart and stretched out his hand to lead Lu Fang's line of sight:

"Lord Xiao Lu, please see, after the arson of these three criminals, they planned to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but in order to prevent the rest of the secret spies from coming to rob the prisoners, the lower officials had already laid a net in front of and behind the government in advance! When the three criminals set fire to the fire and tried to escape from the back street of the government, they fell into the trap that had been laid for a long time! ”

Speaking of this, Master Kong lifted the white cloth that was held up high:

"The three criminals were caught by the guards under their subordinates, and they have all been ambushed!"

Lu Fang thought that this was a ploy to kill people and destroy corpses; But he never expected that this Confucian prefect was just a sesame official from a sour literati, and he would dare to kill the important ministers of the country who were allies in the northern part of the country!

Hearing him say this, Lu Fang's heart was already flooded with turbulence, but he could only try his best to maintain a calm expression on his face, and pretended to paced casually to the first wooden car. With just one glance, he had already decided that the thin man in front of him with crossbow arrows was one of the people he had seen in prison during the day! After gritting his teeth, he lifted the other two white cloths without giving up......

Fu Yi's familiar face, after less than five hours, caught his eye for the second time! It's a pity that this time Governor Fu is no longer as chic and handsome as he was when he first met. At this time, his body was covered with crossbow arrows without tail feathers; The eyes were blankly opened, and the eyelid of the left eye had long since gone; His right cheek was also pierced by a crossbow arrow, and his upper upper incisors were slammed into the mouth by the tip of the crossbow, and his straight lips bulged high!

Pathetic, lamentable. This young and famous Fu Yi, who was talented and good-looking, died in the hands of such a group of rats for no apparent reason......

Lu Fang suppressed the strong vomiting sensation in his chest, pretended to be satisfied and let out a few praises, then yawned, and walked in the direction of the official post without saying a word. And Master Kong, who was standing behind him, stared at the blood mark left on his neck with his eyes, and a trace of vicious light flashed in his eyes.

Although Lu Fang has shallow experience in the rivers and lakes, he is also very clear in his heart: I am afraid that he, a fourth-grade Beijing official and a close minister of the Son of Heaven, is also hanging by a thread now!

Today's big drama is clearly the design of the Governor of Kong to lure Governor Fu to escape! As for the group of masked people who went to assassinate him, they were obviously his subordinates of the Kong Governor's Mansion! Because in this whole set of plans, there are too many hard injuries, and there is no way to make up for them! But if he dies soon, then the cause of this case will be determined by the report fabricated by the Governor Kong!

In fact, this flawed plan is nearing the end with the death of the three criminals; The only key point that has gone wrong is whether he Lu Fang can leave Ludong Road alive!

If Lu Fang was an ordinary catcher, after figuring out these problems, he might choose to stay near the Fuya fire ground. Because there were so many idle people who came to fight the fire tonight, and there were so many pairs of eyes staring at Master Kong, his life would definitely be guaranteed for a while, and he might not necessarily die.

However, Lu Fang definitely didn't dare to do this, because if he stayed in the fire, then he would definitely be designated by Master Kong as the "first meritorious man" who personally commanded the capture and killing of the three criminals! All the time, even if His Majesty believes that he is not involved, they will obviously deliberately create a momentum to urge those blinded ordinary people to put themselves in a position of heroic capture! At that time, no matter how many hard injuries there are in this case and how much evidence he can come up with, the "great credit" of this clever plan to capture the three thieves will eventually be deducted on his head!

Even though Fu Yi died, but Youbei Sanlu did not lose the country, and a founding minister died, didn't Yan Qinghong immediately raise the strength of the country and fight with the Northern Yan Dynasty with his life? So no matter how this matter ends and whether it can end or not, all the responsibilities have to be borne by the big hero? And even if His Majesty and the two prime ministers have a thousand doubts and ten thousand disbeliefs in their hearts, they will not hesitate to execute all their families!

With such a big black cauldron, even if he Lu Fang is shattered and broken, he must not carry it! Otherwise, his old father, who should have been raising his old age a long time ago, and the second brother who had just gotten married, would have no way to live!

Now that he chose to flee overnight, he was ambushed and assassinated, which is already a sure thing. However, judging from the standards of the four masked killers, as long as they act carefully, it may not be the result of ten deaths. Besides, if he can really leave Xilin Mansion safely, even if only one secret piece can be sent to Yanjing City, then any friction between the two norths in the future will at least have nothing to do with his Lu family!

After making up his mind to escape from the city immediately, Lu Fei did not dare to stay for a moment; He didn't even have the heart to deal with Master Kong, and after bowing his head and walking quickly out of the front street of the mansion, his legs immediately danced like flying, and he fled straight to the west city gate! He is confident that with his superb martial arts, it will not be a problem to climb out of the wall that is only three people high!

However, as soon as his feet stepped on the battlements, he saw more than twenty men lying on the entire road, all staring at him with wide eyes; At the same time, a middle-aged man with a wide body and a fat body also walked out of the castle tower; He was dressed in the garb of the people, and he could not tell where he came from; Now holding a torch in his left hand and a steel knife in his right hand, he shouted to him with a cruel smile:

"Master Kong is really clever, he guessed that the three criminals chose to set fire to escape from prison tonight, and there will definitely be a party in the city to respond! Your skills as a Northern Yan barbarian are really good, but you don't know how to stop this thousand machines? ”

Of course, Lu Fang knew what a crossbow was, but the term Qianji crossbow was the first time he had heard of it in his life! With the fat man's order, those black shadows who were originally lying on the ground quickly stood up, each holding a wooden Seiko short crossbow, the cold and sparkling crossbow arrows like poisonous snakes, which may bite their throats at any time!

As soon as Lu Fang saw this formation, he knew that he would definitely die today! Obviously, the prefect of Kong had already made all preparations; And he is only afraid that he is the same as Fu Yi, since he stepped on the ground of Xilin Mansion, he has already been in the urn, and there is no room for turn.

Lu Fang, who thought that his death was approaching, swallowed a mouthful of saliva: This is the first time he has taken on a serious case of eight hundred, and he has to be loyal to His Majesty before he has made an inch? After practicing the sword technique for more than 20 years with the master, he just stepped into the threshold of the rivers and lakes for half a step, and he was about to be caught by someone's crossbow? But I haven't married yet!

Even though there is still a pill in his heart that is unwilling, but now he can only accept his fate. But after all, he is a chivalrous disciple and a close minister of His Majesty, so why do you have to keep your eyes open, and by the way, you can also understand what is called a thousand machine crossbow!

However, God likes to joke very much, not only gave Lu Fang the opportunity to get in touch with new knowledge, but also gave him a new life!

Just after thinking that he was spitting for the last time, there was a sudden commotion in the queue of more than 20 people holding a thousand machine crossbows! There was a young, fair-skinned, half-grown child, holding his neck that was gushing blood with one hand, and holding a torch in the other, and leaning softly on Lu Fang!

The remaining twenty or so people were not idle, and quickly shook the heavenly crossbow in their hands, and countless crossbow arrows were like frightened hornets...... All of them were tied to the back of the young man in Lu Fang's arms!

The so-called heavenly crossbow is a wooden crossbow with a wooden box for storing arrows, and the firing action looks like a master carpenter is digging wood, and every time the arm shakes, a crossbow arrow will leave the string, and the rate of fire is extremely fast! However, the crossbow is far from a longbow in terms of strength; And the Heavenly Machine Crossbow in their hands has even worse penetration!

The distance between the two sides was extremely close, but Lu Fang held the half-grown child who was spurted with blood, and endured the impact of a crossbow arrow, and he didn't even fall a single wound!
