Being stared at by Lu Jin, Liu Daorong only felt his heart shrink for a while, as if everything had been seen through by someone, this feeling was something that had never been seen through by Wang Yue and his father-in-law, which made him immediately vigilant, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Wei Chengbo, in fact, this matter is also very simple, you also know that our family is the supervisor of this Jizhou, and naturally has the responsibility of supervising the officers and soldiers of the army, and if they have any problems, they will report to me."

"In the middle of last year, a sergeant suddenly reported to our family secretly, saying that Lin Lie, the chief soldier of this city, was suspected of colluding with people of foreign tribes and wanting to betray my Jizhou. Our family bears the emperor's grace, and where the responsibility lies, we naturally can't help but take action. ”

"What he colluded with is only a Jurchen tribe of less than two or three thousand people, Gonggong Liu, don't you think this matter looks too unbelievable? Even if my Jizhou defenders don't make any obstacles and let those 3,000 Jurchens enter the city, what threat can they have? Lu Zhen suddenly asked.

Liu Daorong immediately said solemnly: "Uncle Wei, that's not what you said. What our family values is not how threatening this matter is, but the intentions of General Lin Bing. Not to mention that he colluded with the Jurchens, he colluded with a group of bandits to sell my Jizhou City, and our family also wants to take him down! ”

Lu Zhen snorted lightly and no longer dwelled on this. Although the other party was suspected of secretly changing the concept, the reason he said was irrefutable, so he could only change the topic and say: "So you took down General Lin as a supervisor?" ”

"This is not just the meaning of our family, but also the prefect of Su and General Shi also think that this matter is not trivial, for the safety of Jizhou City, General Lin must be taken down first, and then he will take people. Otherwise, with an internal supervisor like me who has no military power, I would not be able to arrest General Lin in the barracks. And now people are also locked up in the government prison. As he spoke, he glanced at Su Mudao again, and the latter also smiled at Lu Jin a little nervously, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.

Lu Zhen was silent for a moment, and then continued to ask: "Then you found the so-called human and physical evidence?" ”

"Exactly. Maybe it's because of the weakness of the heart, after our family made the truth clear, Mr. Lin didn't dare to resist, so he was arrested. Then someone found several Jurchen-specific Dongzhu and a Haidongqing in his barracks, and there was also a letter he wrote to the Jurchens himself, on which the whole plan was clearly written, that is, to take advantage of the slack in the defenders of the city on Chinese New Year's Eve, he sent someone to steal the city gate and let the Jurchen kill into the city. This handwritten letter, which has not yet been sent, is enough to condemn him. ”

As he spoke, he paused for a moment and continued: "Subsequently, when interrogating several of Lin Zongbing's cronies, he also asked from several people about the fact that he had sent people out of the city to have contact with the Jurchens many times. Wei Chengbo, with these two evidences, we think there should be no more doubts about this matter, right? ”

After hearing these words, Lu Jin's face became more and more solemn. If he hadn't known Lin Lie well, it would have been really easy for him to adopt the other party's opinion in the face of such ironclad evidence. But at this time, even if he was a messenger, it was impossible for him to directly oppose these accusations, so he said: "Since this official is here by His Majesty's order, it is natural that he should check it carefully." I would like to ask Gonggong Liu to bring the letter and witnesses, I want to inquire carefully. ”

"This is natural, but ......" Liu Daorong said, turned his head to look at the sky outside and said: "It's getting late now, Wei Chengbo, you must be tired when you come from afar, why don't you eat the reception banquet first, rest for one night, and wait for tomorrow to deal with it?" ”

"This ......" Lu Zhen hesitated slightly, and Su Mudao over there also opened his mouth: "My lord, what Gonggong Liu said is very true, anyway, the physical witnesses and evidence are all in my mansion, and they will not be lost, you better cultivate your spirit first." ”

Although he didn't understand the other party's intention to delay, Lu Zhen didn't insist in the end, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, then the two of you will arrange a place for me to stay." ”

"Your Excellency, your envoy has already been arranged, and it is in a courtyard not far from the palace. There is also a reception banquet prepared there, and the lower official will take you there. Su Mudao said with a smile, got up and made a gesture of please.

Everyone said so, and Lu Zhen didn't delay any longer, got up according to his words, and walked out with him. It's just that he has more doubts in his heart after all, and he doesn't know what the other party's purpose is for delaying.

Sure enough, less than two or three hundred steps away from the mansion, a rather delicate mansion was cleaned out and used as Lu Jin's Qin errand in Jizhou City this time. Not only is the environment quiet here, but the facilities and servants are also quite complete, which can be regarded as the local government has done its best.

Next, there was a fairly harmonious reception banquet, many local officials and generals participated in the banquet, and they all met with Lu Jin. However, when he wanted to talk to them about his views on Lin Lie's case, these people all talked about him left and right, and didn't dare to talk too much, obviously these people were worried.

When the banquet was over and everyone dispersed, the smile on Lu Jin's face gradually disappeared, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes. At this time, Yao Gan also walked over: "My lord, these officials are obviously a little weak-minded, otherwise they wouldn't have suddenly offered to stay for tomorrow when you said that you wanted to check the physical evidence and interrogate the witnesses." ”

"Yes, I can confirm that Lin Lie was wronged, but what tricks they will play next is a little unpredictable. These guys must have some kind of means, so you have to be cautious and don't be calculated. Lu Jin's expression was solemn.

"My subordinates obey orders, I will let people keep an eye on the people in this house, as long as they make any changes, they will definitely not escape the eyes of my Jinyi guard." Yao Gan immediately replied solemnly.

Lu Zhen was still very confident in Jinyiwei's ability, so he nodded and said, "Then do it according to your wishes." Also, tomorrow you can also contact the local Jinyi Wei agents to see what else they have discovered. ”

After giving all this instructions, Lu Zhen turned around and returned to his bedroom, and rested after a little freshening. In the past few days, he has been rushing to Jizhou in a carriage, and he is really tired.

He rested, but some people obviously couldn't rest, such as Yao Gan, who arranged internal and external defense, and Su Mudao and Liu Daorong, who were worried.

Not only did Lu Zhen not see through Liu Daorong's arrangement, but even his companion Su Zhifu felt a little puzzled: "Gonggong Liu, why did you suddenly stop talking?" Is there anything wrong with this? ”

Liu Daorong glanced at the other party: "Do you remember when I suddenly stopped you from killing Lin Lie two days ago?" After seeing the other party nodding, he continued: "That's because Dongchang suddenly sent someone to let me do this." And this person rushed to Jizhou because the prince was not worried about our previous arrangement, and felt that there might be hidden dangers. ”

"What...... What are the hidden dangers? When Su Mudao heard this, his heart tightened.

"That letter was written by your master imitating Lin Lie's handwriting, right?"

"Exactly. My master is a master of this way, and few people can see the flaws in the words he copied. ”

"Very little, so does that mean that someone can still see the problem? Do you think there will be no one in the brocade guard who is so good at checking the handwriting of other people? Moreover, Lin Lie and Lu Zhen have always had a deep friendship, maybe with his eyesight, he can also see some problems from it. ”

Liu Daorong's words really made Su Mudao nervous again, and suddenly hesitated a little: "This ...... How good is that? The letter is the most important evidence...... "After all, human evidence can still lie, and physical evidence is the real ironclad evidence."

Liu Daorong smiled hesitantly: "The prince has thought of this a long time ago, so he sent this person over, with him here, this physical evidence is naturally no longer a problem." ”

"Huh? Could it be that he is also good at imitating the handwriting of others, more powerful than my master? Su Mudao's spirit suddenly lifted.

This time, Liu Daorong didn't answer, but sold a pass, just smiled: "You'll know when the time comes." After tonight, the two pieces of physical evidence were exchanged, and he couldn't find any problems with the brocade guard. Even from the perspective of Lin Lie himself, he can only admit that it was written by him. ”

After a pause, he said again: "In addition, our family is doing this in order to do a good job of what the prince ordered. This time, it is not only Lin Lie's life that is wanted, but also to drag that Lu Zhen into this muddy water, and you come here. ”

After the other party leaned over, Liu Daorong whispered a few words, which made the other party nervous again, and then nodded in response: "Xiaguan understands, I will go back to follow the arrangement you said father-in-law." ”

"Go ahead. As long as he Lu Zhen takes a wrong step, the charges of foreign clans here may also be deducted from his head! Liu Daorong said with a gloomy smile.

The long night passed quietly in the midst of one side of the strict defense and the other side of the calculation, as if someone had done something, and nothing seemed to have changed.

When dawn and Lu Jin's spirits got up, Yao Gan immediately stepped forward and reported a little episode that happened last night. After listening to the story, Lu Zhen nodded with satisfaction: "Well done, their practice of adding snakes may be the flaw." ”

"My lord, let's ...... next."

"Just wait for them to come to the door. After all, the matter I was going to inquire about yesterday is not over yet, and they have to explain the matter. I'd like to see if they can cover up the flaws in just one night! Lu Jin said disappreciatively.
