Chapter 866: Xingze Mutation

When the people of the Zhou Palace's mansion were busy trying to cover up the traces of this battle, Lu Zhen and his party finally returned to Xingze County again.

But when they came to the gate, they found that the situation was somewhat different from when they had left. The people who should have gathered outside the city gate were much smaller, and even the porridge shack that was set up there had collapsed nearly half, several pots had been smashed to the ground, and the rice bags on the side had long been empty, as if they had been robbed.

Seeing such a situation, the eyes of the Jinyi guards, who had just experienced a killing, flashed with palpitating killing intent, and the hands of several people unconsciously put their hands on the hilt of the knife on their waists, as if they were about to explode at any time.

Fortunately, Lu Zhen lifted the curtain and walked out in time, first calmed everyone with his gaze, and then quickly walked to several victims: "Fellow villagers, do you know what happened here?" ”

"Master Zheng, are you back......" One of the victims he asked was stunned for a moment, then recognized him, and quickly shouted excitedly: "Now there is an accident in the city, you can go in and take a look...... The fight began, and the young men of us ran into the city, leaving only these old and weak here. ”

"What the hell is going on?" When Lu Zhen heard this, his eyebrows quickly raised, knowing that the matter was not small. At the same time, he also heard bursts of shouting from inside the city, although he couldn't hear it too real because of some distances, but he could still feel the intensity of the contradictions inside.

"I heard that it was the two grain merchants in Zhugong who suddenly reported to the county government, saying that it was Master Zheng and your people who looted his granary at night, and then the two sides had a dispute, and finally they started to move. Later, many people in the county government were involved in this brawl, and it was useless to persuade anyone. Someone said what he knew with a blank face, but Lu Zhen became more and more confused, what is the reason, how could his subordinates rob the grain of his two families for no reason?

Obviously, the people who remained outside the city had limited knowledge of what was going on inside the city, and it was unrealistic to ask them anything more. After understanding this, Lu Zhen stopped staying, immediately said hello, and quickly rushed into the county town with more than a dozen subordinates.

As soon as they walked through the gate and up the long street, they saw two chaotic groups of men and horses in front of them. The ragged men on this side should be the victims of the disaster, and the other side is better dressed, with sticks and other weapons in their hands. It's just that the former has an absolute advantage in numbers, so although they are bare-handed, they are also pressing each other to fight, and in a few strokes, they have already snatched the sticks in the opponent's hands, killing those people with their heads in their hands......

Looking at the scene of such a brawl in front of him, Lu Zhen felt a little unbelievable. In the past, when they were almost dying of starvation, these victims did not make any trouble. It's good now, at least there will be stuttering, but they are fighting with the people, what is the reason for this?

With thoughts turning in his heart, his actions did not stop at all, and he quickly ran towards the place where the county government was located. And along the way, they encountered several groups of brawlers who were fighting in one place, unknown identities, and difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat. In this regard, Lu Zhen did not have the slightest intention of stopping it, because he knew that the root of this matter was in the county government, and only by solving this point could the situation be calmed down.

I don't know if it's because these people are too focused on fighting each other, or because of the strong murderous aura exuded by Lu Jin's body that people dare not offend, anyway, they didn't encounter any obstacles on this part of the way, and they came directly to the county government smoothly.

And here, there are a large number of people who are surrounding the county office, shouting and scolding something, and the officers of the county government can only barely block their way, and they are bitterly persuading. It is precisely because the county government is blocked by people that no one can stop the chaos in the city.

At this moment, a number of men suddenly rushed out of the door, and one of them shouted: "You profiteers, do you really want to let the people of this city die in your hands?" Lao Tzu will do the right thing for heaven today and kill you! As he spoke, he strode out, and after dodging the obstruction of an officer, he ran directly to a man outside the door, and knocked him down head-on with a single punch.

At this moment, it was like adding a scoop of cold water to the boiling hot oil, and suddenly the whole situation was completely out of control, and everyone exploded. The guys who were surrounding them could no longer care about the people in front of them and the people in the government to stop them, so they pounced fiercely and fought back. And the group of men who came out with the man also greeted him in a shout, and the two sides immediately fought at the entrance of the yamen and made a mess.

At this time, the people of the county government can only stare dryly, they don't want to offend these two people, but they can't separate and persuade them, so they can really only be innocent bystanders at this time.

"Who is the man...... It seems to be the entourage next to Yin Gongzi, right? Lu Zhen watched the battle suddenly open not far away, and asked with some hesitation.

"It's him, I've had some communication with him before." Yao Gan also nodded hurriedly and said, "There are a few over there, and the little ones have also seen them in front of Zhu Xuan's house." ”

"You guys, hurry up and separate them, don't make a fuss about people, so that the matter can't end completely." Lu Zhen quickly made a decision and immediately ordered.

"Yes!" After hearing the order, these good hands in the brocade guards hurriedly rushed forward, and struggled to pull away the two people who were fighting together, and shouted loudly: "You all calm down, there is something that cannot be explained clearly, you have to do it......" It is also a little divided, they just went out to kill not long ago, killing all the hundred people, and now they are running here to be peacemakers.

Whether it is Zhu Xuan's house slave or Yin Xiang's subordinates, there is still a big gap between them and these experienced Jinyi guards in terms of ability, plus the county officials also quickly participated in it to dissuade them, and after a busy time, the two parties who did it were separated again. It's just that they are still hostile to each other, glaring at each other angrily, and scolding even more in their mouths, as if they may do it again at any time.

It was only at this time that Lu Jin, under Yao Gan's guard, stepped forward and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Why did you make such a move in front of the county government and make such a mess of the entire county? ”

As a person who has been in the top position for a long time, Lu Zhen has a powerful aura on his body, and when he suddenly came forward to speak, he immediately calmed many people, and someone opened his mouth to argue: "It's all their nonsense, so we can fight back when we can't help it!" ”

Almost all of them said something similar, and after saying a sentence, they looked at each other like cocks. Later, someone recognized Lu Jin's identity: "You...... Aren't you the Zheng Lu? It was a steward in Zhu Xuan's family who spoke.

"It's Zheng, I can't imagine that I have only left Xingze for a few days, and you have made such a big trouble, is there any royal law?" Lu Zhen naturally didn't have the slightest affection for Zhu Xuan, so he immediately scolded.

Unexpectedly, the other party was not afraid of his accusations at all, and immediately shouted: "You still dare to show up, and now you want to reverse black and white, is it really easy for us to bully Yingze people?" Everyone, take down these thieves. ”

Just when those Zhu family slaves wanted to respond to their call and rush up again, they saw a figure flickering, and one person had suddenly appeared in front of the other party, and a knife had already been put on his neck: "Who dare to mess around?" However, it was Yao Gan who made a decisive move when he realized that the situation was going to get further out of control, and came to capture the thief and capture the king first.

That person was indeed the leader of this group of people besieging the county government, and when they saw him being captured, although the slaves of the Zhu family still shouted loudly and asked him to let him go, they didn't dare to make too big a move.

Opposite everyone, Gao Ming saw this, a trace of essence suddenly flashed in his eyes, and his hand trembled, as if he wanted to do something. But at this moment, a hand was on his shoulder, he was startled, turned his head and swept it, but found that it was Yin Xiang who held him down, so he glanced at the other party with a puzzled look.

Yin Xiang didn't give any explanation, just shook his head at him, then let go of his hand and said to Lu Jin: "Brother Zheng, you are finally back." If you come two days late, I am afraid we will not be able to protect your brothers. ”

While speaking, several more people ran out quickly, it was Han Wutong and Lu Fang and others, I saw that they also had some scars on their faces, and it seemed that they had suffered a lot in the past few days: "Master...... You're back......" Han Wutong exclaimed with some excitement.

Seeing them like this, Lu Jin's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Are they hurting you?" Seeing that the people he brought were hurt by others, a burst of anger suddenly surged in his heart, and his tone was a little calm.

"That's them. Soon after the little one returned to Xingze, he was surrounded by them. Moreover, they also insisted that the grain we worked hard to transport from Kaifeng belonged to their family, and they even wanted to snatch it. The little leader wanted to protect the grain, and they beat it like this......" Lu Fang said with grievances.

"Hmph, you're so daring." Lu Jin's eyebrows were raised, and he was about to have a seizure, but he heard another shout from inside: "Everyone, there must be some misunderstanding here, don't hurt the harmony anymore." You listen to this official, as long as you speak out, everything will naturally be revealed! ”

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw Wang Ningxian, the county magistrate who had always had a very weak sense of existence, rushed out, and beside him, there were several other county officials, and Dian Shi Dingle was naturally among them.

With these people suddenly coming forward, Lu Zhen was really not good at using force, so he could only temporarily suppress the anger in his heart: "Yes, I am also trying to understand what is going on!" ”
