Rushing back to the Yamen, Lu Zhen saw Kang Sichuan and several other major officials frowning and pacing back and forth. Sure enough, as the officer said, they had a lot of problems.

"I've seen you." Lu Zhen immediately walked into the second hall and respectfully made a circle first.

When Kang Sichuan saw him coming, he stopped and smiled a little apologetically: "Disturb Shansi and you are resting." But things have changed, and I can't come up with a proper solution for a while, so I have to call you back. ”

"I wonder what happened to the docks?" Lu Jin's heart was also tight, and he hurriedly asked.

Under Kang Sichuan's nod, Zhao Keyuan explained: "Before, this official was ordered by the prefect to go to the dock to negotiate with the rebels. Since the Cao Gang has been taken down by our government, they should believe in our sincerity. Moreover, their grievances also need to be explained by themselves, so they proposed to let their leaders come to the government and let Huo Gonggong go. But as a result, they refused to agree, and only let the yamen execute Li Yanjiu and others first, otherwise they would not let them go. ”

This is indeed difficult for some strong people. Not to mention that the government has always had a close relationship with the Cao Gang, even if there is really no collusion, with the power of the Cao Gang and the strength to control the canal route, the Suzhou government will not dare to kill one of their helmsmen casually.

When Lu Zhen heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he understood again. Obviously, Yue Nanxing and the others had suffered enough of the government's losses, and they also knew that they were colluding with the Cao Gang, so they didn't dare to risk going ashore and handing over people in this matter. Looking at Kang Sichuan's depressed appearance, it was obvious that they had indeed made this calculation before, but unfortunately they didn't succeed.

"In this case, things are really not easy to handle. After all, the government can't just be blackmailed to kill people who have not yet been found guilty. Lu Zhen commented as if he understood.

"That's why I want to hear what you mean, how should I deal with this matter?" Although it is not explicitly stated, the meaning of Kang Sichuan is already obvious, since this idea is yours, of course, you have to solve the problem.

Lu Zhen frowned and pondered, this time things are changing together, and he really has to take some responsibility. Because if he really can't come up with a charter, the result must be what he doesn't want to see - the government will send people to attack, and then it will be the result of all the jade burning.

If he hadn't seen Yue Nanxing on the boat, Lu Zhen wouldn't have too many worries about such a result. That Huo Zheng's life or death has nothing to do with him. But after knowing what happened to Yue Nanxing and the others, he felt that he had an extra responsibility on his shoulders, and he had to get justice for them!

I have arranged everything before, and of course I can't fall short because of this change. Then I can only take another risk and try to convince that Yue Nanxing. After making up his mind, Lu Jinfang raised his head: "My lord, do you want to meet them again and discuss with them?" Even if you can't let them go back to Grandpa Huo, you have to let people agree to go ashore. ”

"Are you sure?" When Zhao Keyuan heard this, he hurriedly asked. And Kang Sichuan looked at him with some concern: "This is not a joke, you have to think about it." ”

"Since I am on an errand in the government, I naturally have to do my best when this happens, otherwise how can I be worthy of the trust that my lord has always had?" Lu Zhen said something beautiful, and then looked at each other with a straight face.

Kang Sichuan looked at him for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, then it's hard and thoughtful." In fact, he also meant the same thing, it was Lu Zhen who talked about it just now, and now he naturally doesn't bother the two masters.

This time, Lu Zhen didn't say anything, just solemnly bowed his hand, glanced at several other officials, and then withdrew from the hall. After a while, he was escorted by Lin Lie and several other yamen servants to go straight to the dock.

When Lu Zhen came to the canal wharf again, it was already the time to apply for a license, and the sun was already slightly westerly. Knowing that time was running out, he didn't delay much, so he and Lin Lie got on a small boat and came to the side of the official ship again.

After seeing that it was him, the men on the boat did not make any disrespectful movements, and quickly lowered the pedal and invited him to board the ship. It's just that when Lin Lie wanted to accompany him, he was stopped by them: "You can only get on the boat alone!" ”

Lu Zhen turned around and gave Lin Lie a slightly calmer gesture, and then followed the pedal back to the official ship again. And that Yue Nanxing was still in that cabin, and he didn't even move his position much.

After entering the door and arching his hand at the other party, Lu Zhen immediately frowned and said, "Brother Yue, what do you mean by this?" If you want the government to clear your name, why don't you go ashore to testify? Can't you even show this bit of sincerity? How dare our government believe your accusation? ”

In the face of his series of cross-examinations, Yue Nanxing did not answer, but just stared at Lu Zhen fixedly, and only asked after a while: "Does Lu Gongzi think that I can really believe the words of the government?" ”

After a pause, he continued: "At the beginning, it was because I believed in the government that I caused those brothers and family members to die tragically under the knife of the Cao Gang beasts. Now that I know that the government is complicit in them, how can I repeat the same mistakes? ”

Lu Zhen sighed lightly: "Your concerns are understandable. However, now, if you refuse to hand over the person and refuse to go ashore as a witness, what should you do with the government? You can't rely on your words, the government really killed all these people in the Cao Gang, right? In this way, no matter whether the matter is true or not as you said, I am afraid that the prefect and the yamen will not be able to explain to the court and the people. ”

This is indeed true, and it makes Yue Nanxing a little unsure how to refute it. And while he was pondering, Lu Zhen continued to exert pressure: "They are all responsible, since this is the case, I am afraid that the prefect yamen can only take the risk of attacking." At that time, it will be at most a charge of incompetence. But what about you? I'm afraid that you will not escape the end of being exterminated by the government. This is not what you and I Lu Zhen want to see. I wonder what Brother Yue thinks? ”

The faces of everyone in the cabin, including Yue Nanxing, showed a worried color, in fact, they had all turned this in their hearts. It's just because of that hatred that they have been running away from it all the time. And now, Lu Zhen directly made his words clear, and let them avoid it.

If Lu Zhen said this arrogantly, maybe they would still be strong for the sake of face. But now, he said it sincerely, from their standpoint, so that everyone could not refute it.

Seeing this, Lu Zhen said again: "Now that it's over, do you still have to hold on?" A small local eunuch is not as powerful as you think, and if the government has no other way, they will have to abandon him. And this time the government has indeed shown sincerity, even Li Yanjiu has been taken down by us, what else do you have to worry about? ”

"But what if Boss Yue goes ashore and your yamen rebels?" A young man suddenly opened his mouth and said, "If you take Boss Yue down and use him as a hostage to force us to comply, what should we do?" ”

"I, Lu Jin, use my life to keep him safe!" Lu Zhen immediately replied, and his gaze fell on Yue Nanxing's face again: "Is Brother Yue credible?" ”

"I can trust you." After a little muttering, Yue Nanxing finally nodded: "However, after all, the stakes are high, and I can't gamble with the lives of so many brothers." ”

"And what do you mean?"

"If you want us to believe you, it's not impossible, but you also have to show some sincerity. My request is that I can go ashore, but you have to stay on this ship! Yue Nanxing finally said his request.

Although Lu Zhen had conjectures in this regard when he promised Kang Sichuan, when the other party said this, he still obviously hesitated. He wasn't worried about his own safety, but: "I'm just a staff member next to a prefect, and Brother Yue thinks too highly of me, right?" How much guarantee can I have if I am taken hostage? ”

"Master Lu, you are too arrogant. Although you are not an official, your prestige in Suzhou, and even in the whole of Jiangnan, is only stronger than that of ordinary officials. With you here, I can believe in your so-called sincerity. Yue Nanxing looked at Lu Zhen and said slowly.

"You're really flattering to me. Well, since you've said so, stay on board so that you can go ashore with confidence? Lu Zhen quickly made a decision.

"Boss......" The other people were a little uneasy, and wanted to persuade a few words, but they didn't know how to open this eloquence for a while.

At this time, Yue Nanxing stood up suddenly: "You don't have to say it anymore. I had planned to go ashore to earn my life for everyone, not to mention that there is still Lu Gongzi willing to stay on the ship as a guarantee. I, Yue Nanxing, have been wandering in the rivers and lakes for many years, is it not as brave as him as a scholar? He dared to come aboard the ship twice to meet me, so I didn't dare to go ashore and talk to the government to make it clear? Wait here for a while, and soon I will be able to get rid of the murderers who have destroyed our brothers' families, and comfort their souls in heaven! ”

Speaking of which, even if the others were still a little uneasy, they could only swallow the words back. And Lu Zhen said again in a timely manner: "Brother Yue, don't worry, even if it is a bit dangerous to go here, I can use my life to guarantee that as long as what you said before is true, the government will definitely give you justice." ”

Yue Nanxing glanced at Lu Zhen deeply, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the cabin.

When the officers and soldiers on the shore saw that the small boat had come back again, it was only Lu Zhen who returned in vain. But when it approached, everyone finally showed a strange look - the one who came was actually replaced by another person, and it looked like it should be the head of the chaotic people.

After confirming this, with the order of an officer, the small boat that had just landed on the shore was surrounded by officers and soldiers. Before he got ashore, Yue Nanxing had already been grabbed by the people who rushed up......
