Chapter 487: Public Opinion, Corrupt Officials

It is said that the five generations of the Lu family lived in the Daimyo Mansion in Beijing, and little by little became the richest man in Hebei, Lu Junyi was born as a talent, with a good martial arts, known as the unparalleled gun and stick in the world, and he was the first famous person in the city of the Daimyo Mansion.

How can such a big celebrity, a rich man, who is now suddenly arrested and put on death row, and who has heard that he will be beheaded in a few days, how can he not cause an uproar in the city and cause a wave of discussions?

For a while, rumors were spreading, and there was everything in the streets and alleys, wine shops and tea shops.

Some people say that Li Gu is ungrateful, but Lu Junyi saved him, but he will take revenge; It is also said that Lu Junyi's life is too smooth and too proud, so he should have this report; But the most talked about is that Liang Zhongshu wants to rob Lu Junyi's family wealth, knowing that he was framed and putting him to death.

Of course, the people have always been the people who do not fight with the officials, and even if the officials are doing too much, as long as they do not involve themselves, most of the people only secretly say a few words at home.

However, since the rise of the Liangshan army, the imperial court officials and troops have been repeatedly defeated, and even Bianjing City has been breached, and now it is almost on an equal footing with the imperial court, so that the natural awe of the people for the imperial court in their hearts is much less.

Secondly, there is not Liang Shanjun's handwriting, but also Shen Yang handled it properly, as soon as he learned that Lu Junyi was framed and Yan Qing came to ask for help, he ordered to go down and ask someone to influence public opinion in the city a little, and pointed the finger at Liang Zhongshu, making Liang Zhongshu somewhat scruples, and did not dare to blatantly kill Lu Junyi immediately.

But he said that Liang Shijie finished handling the government affairs at hand that day, and returned to the back office early, and listened to his wife's grandmother Xie Duguan talk about the discussion in the market, Liang Shijie didn't take it seriously, just sneered: "Diao Min is ignorant, what does he do?" After two days, the rumors naturally subsided. ”

Immediately, Liang Shijie came to the back house, met with his wife Cai, and talked about it again.

"This matter is going to be slowed down, if you kill him now, it is inevitable that the whole city of Beijing will cry out for Lu Junyi, saying that I want to seek his family wealth, and it is not good to say it."

Speaking of which, Liang Shijie has achieved a high position all the way to the middle school, and he is in such an important position as being released from Beijing to stay in Beijing, how can he be a stupid person?

His wife Cai is Cai Jing's daughter, who has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she also has a lot of eyes.

Therefore, Liang Shijie and Cai's husband and wife had already seen that Lu Junyi was framed.

Thinking that Lu Junyi is the richest man in Hebei, and his life is not too nourishing, how could he suddenly go to Ganyan Mountain to sit in the second place?

Even if you really want to rebel, you have to vote for the Liangshan army, after all, the Liangshan army is outstanding, and even the Liao State was defeated in their hands, so it is really not to say where it can go in the future.

Therefore, joining the Liangshan Army can be regarded as a person going to a high place, looking forward to following the Liangshan Army to do a great career, and in the future, he can be crowned a wife and a son; But what's the matter with running to Ganyan Mountain and falling into the grass? What are the futures?

But as soon as Li Gu and Lu Junyi's wife Jia Shi came to complain, Liang Shijie did not hesitate to sentence Lu Junyi to death as soon as possible, the reason is that this case has anti-poetry, Li Gu and Jia's confessions, and why did Lu Junyi live on Ganyan Mountain for so long if he didn't want to rebel? Why did the robbers on Ganyan Mountain let him go down the mountain?

With this evidence, it is enough to make the case an iron case, that is, the above (such as Cai Jing's political enemies) will investigate, and he is not afraid of the lawsuit at all in front of the emperor.

In other words, there is no risk in doing so.

But no risk is secondary, the main reason why Liang Shijie did this is his motive - Li Gutuo found Liang Shijie and said that as long as Lu Junyi was sentenced to death, he would offer Lu Junyi's 30% wealth, including 300,000 yuan in gold and silver, where the land estate, where the shop property and so on.

There is no risk, high returns, and no difficulty in operation, so Liang Shijie naturally has no reason to refuse.

But he said that Cai's family was worthy of being Cai Jing's daughter, and the two husbands and wives were used to making money, and when they heard this, they also said: "Then let him live a few more days, I don't know how the prime minister is going to deal with this Lu Junyi?" ”|

Liang Shijie smiled when he heard this: "Originally, I didn't need to do this matter, Li Gu and Jia's pair of adulterers ** were eager for Lu Junyi to die early, and they would definitely buy murder, and when the time comes, as long as I pursue it, I will be able to punish the two of them, and Lu Junyi's million-dollar family wealth will naturally go to the left-behind division."

Now, somehow rumors are spreading outside, Lu Junyi can't be killed for the time being, and Li Gu can't get it, otherwise the people will only say that I hurt him; If he is sentenced to a stabbing punishment, he is afraid that the thief will rob him halfway.

The best plan for today is to put this Lu Junyi in prison, not to judge him unworthy, drag him for ten days and a half months, the thieves in Ganyan Mountain will not be able to wait, if they jump out of the prison to save people, Lu Junyi's crime of falling into the grass and bandits will be confirmed! At that time, the people in the city naturally had nothing to say. ”

Cai said: "Xiang Gong is a good calculation, but in this way, how to concoct Li Gu and Jia's team of adulterers?" Can't Lu Junyi be a rich man from generation to generation, and the million-dollar family fortune of the richest man in Hebei will be taken away by these two adulterers? ”

"These two people plotted to kill the old master and frame the husband, their reputation has long been ruined, and what they don't have is a chance to concoct them? Lu Junyi's huge family furniture can't run away, and I'm worried about ......"

Liang Shijie hadn't finished speaking, but at this time, a confidant of the Cai family led Xie Duguan in, and when he saw the two of them, he shouted: "Stay behind, Miss, it's not good, Lu Junyi's henchman Yan Qingyan Xiaoyi led Liang Shanjun and a man named Wu Song to ask for a meeting." ”

Liang Shijie was stunned when he heard it, and said in his heart, why did this matter involve Liang Shanjun again?

In the past, for example, before Liang Shanjun negotiated peace with the court for the first time, before breaking Bianjing City, Liang Shijie must not even bother to take care of it, but he won't be able to deal with Wu Song, after all, most of the civil officials of Zhao and Song have a common problem, that is, lack of blood, and they are very inward-looking.

For example, in the original Water Margin story, Liang Shijie originally wanted to kill Lu Junyi, but Shi Xiu jumped off the building and robbed the law field alone, and in the end, he was naturally outnumbered and the two were arrested together.

It stands to reason that there is nothing else to say, Shi Xiu's robbery of the law field not only confirmed Lu Junyi's crime, but also killed dozens of people on the spot, and Liang Shijie should push the two outside and behead them again to show the public.

But as a result, when Shi Xiu was escorted to Liang Shijie, he opened his eyes and scolded loudly: "You thief who corrupts the country and harms the people!" I listened to my brother's orders, and sooner or later I will lead troops to fight your city and set foot on the ground. Cut people into three. Teach the master to tell you first. Liang Shijie was frightened, he was really afraid of Liang Shan's revenge and didn't dare to kill Lu and Shi.

This is also an important reason why Jingkang's shame happened, the group of monarchs and ministers in Tokyo City were frightened by the Jurchens, and they listened to whatever the Jurchens said.

Just trying to meet the demands of the Jurchens as much as possible, and then the Jurchens will go away satisfied, but the Jurchens' appetite is getting bigger and bigger every time, and the demands are more and more excessive every time, and Zhao Song and these cowards don't dare to resist in the end.
