Before the reeds by the river, Dong Ce listened to Liu Fu's story, and the reeds in his hand were also broken, and after a long time, a heavy sigh came out of his nostrils, and he said expressionlessly: "Ah Fu, is the carriage coming, we can go back to Jinling." ”

"The carriage is parked next to the official road, and I will go and bring it immediately." Liu Fu responded and immediately rushed towards the official road.

Meng Feng and Zhou Cong saw Liu Fu running away from a distance, so they stepped forward to ask Dong Ce what happened.

Dong Ce shook his head and smiled at the two of them, and said, "My father killed someone." ”

"What!" Meng Feng and Zhou Cong were stunned for a moment, this is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue!

Don't say that the two of them don't believe it, Dong Ce doesn't believe it either, although he doesn't know much about this cheap father, he knows very well that a person of Dong Yuanchang's status really can't kill people! Even if he really wanted someone's life, he could have made an offer, and hundreds of green forest heroes poured to help him, could he do it himself?

However, things just happened, now Dong Yuanchang has been imprisoned, Dong's mansion has become a mess, and even the business guild has stopped taking orders, can all this be fake! It can only be said that it all came too suddenly.

When Liu Fu drove the carriage and Dong Ce was about to get into the carriage, he noticed that Meng Feng and Zhou Cong were also about to follow, so he couldn't help but stop: "You two don't have to go back with me, stay and help me settle the disciples, if you can, take them to Jinling to settle down!" ”

"It's okay to have a little bit later, but Uncle Dong ...... it." Meng Erren was suddenly anxious, but he couldn't allow them to finish speaking, Dong Ce preemptively said: "Then you also have to find other cars, really think that this car is refueled, but it's better not to participate, settling them is the first priority." ”

Dong Ce said that he would no longer pay attention to the two, and beckoned Liu Fu to drive, and the carriage sped away after a while, leaving a group of disciples with big eyes and small eyes.

Zhenjiang Mansion is not far from Jinling, it can be reached by carriage for more than two hours, when Dong Ce returned to Jinling, it was getting dark, and the Yamen dungeon was not allowed to enter at this time, but as the so-called money can make ghosts grind, Dong Ce spent two taels of silver to easily enter the dungeon.

When the cell leader led the master and servant to the door of Dong Yuanchang's prison, Dong Ce saw his father in prison clothes sitting on the grass in a daze.

"Dong Gongzi picks the key points, at most one stick of incense time." After the cell boss finished laughing, he avoided it with amusement.

Dong Ce didn't say a word, he looked at Dong Yuanchang in a daze, but Liu Fu on the side scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and finally couldn't help but speak first: "Master, the young man has come to see you." ”

"Ce'er!" Dong Yuanchang was shocked, and turned his head numbly to look outside the cell.

In just a few days, Dong Yuanchang's gray hair and wrinkles seem to have increased several times, showing his old age.

"What's going on?" Dong Ce spoke, his face still expressionless.

"I don't know." Dong Yuanchang said, perhaps afraid that Dong Ce didn't hear clearly, and kept shaking his head and continued to mutter: "I really don't know!" ”

"Don't know?" Dong Ce was stunned, and after a moment he said again: "I heard what Ah Fu said, there were only you and the woman in the house at that time, the woman screamed before she died, and the maid broke the door and saw you standing next to the woman's corpse with a blood-dripping weapon, from the scream to the maid breaking in just a few breaths, how could you not know?" ”

When Dong Yuanchang heard these words, he closed his eyes in pain, raised his head and sighed: "It's so far, it's useless to say anything. ”

Dong Ce, who had been expressionless, frowned instantly when he heard this, and said very unhappily: "Can you not pretend, you are obviously afraid of death and still learn to look down on life and death, looking for a draw." ”

"Young boy, you ......" Liu Fu sweated profusely, wanting to remind the young boy that you are a father, but he couldn't say anything when the words came to his mouth.

Dong Yuanchang didn't care, because his son hadn't been like this to him for a day or two, since Dong Ce's mother passed away, the two fathers and sons had little contact with strangers, and now that he thinks about it, Dong Yuanchang feels too ashamed of Dong Ce, but it's a pity that it's too late to understand all this!

"I really don't know how this happened, I just took a nap at the time, and when I woke up, I saw Yu Niang...... cough, that's it, I've already confessed to this crime, it's useless to say anything, Ce'er, after Daddy dies, you have to remember ......" Dong Yuanchang was about to arrange the funeral, but Dong Ce waved his hand and said: "You killed the person, you naturally can't escape death, but if you didn't do it, I have to rescue you if I say anything." With that, Dong Ce left Dong Yuanchang, who was stunned, and turned to leave.

"Uh...... Master, I'll see you tomorrow. Liu Fu was stunned for a while, and then he hugged his fist at Dong Yuanchang and immediately chased after Dong Ce.

Out of the dungeon, Liu Fu cautiously approached Dong Ce and said in a low voice: "Young boy, forgive me for being presumptuous, you seem to have treated the master like this!" ”

Liu Fu knew that there was an estrangement between Dong Ce and Dong Yuanchang, but after all, they were father and son, no matter how big the estrangement was, couldn't they be let go at this moment? Do you have to wait until the master is under the Nine Springs to let go?

"Ah Fu." Dong Ce turned his face sideways slightly, his gaze wandering and he didn't know where to look.

"Ah, yes, the little one is here, what does the young man command?" Liu Fu felt that the young man didn't seem to listen to his previous words at all.

Dong Ce really didn't hear it, his mind had already fallen on Dong Yuanchang's case, and he didn't have any feelings for this father Dong Ce, let alone cultivate family affection with him, because it was like a foundation for Dong Ce, extremely disgusting, and Dong Yuanchang was not a qualified father, he didn't even notice when his son had changed, and the time spent in the mansion was not as long as in the golden house of Zangjiao, what difference can he have between him and strangers like such a father and son?

But this does not mean that Dong Ce can watch Dong Yuanchang be executed, because in his plan, Dong Yuanchang must live, provide his own life, and when he marries and has children with his fiancée, he will hand over his children to Dong Yuanchang to be trained as a successor, even if Dong Yuanchang returns to the land for a hundred years, he still has children to support, and this life is like this!

Being carefree, enjoying life to the fullest, and doing what he likes to do is Dong Ce's biggest ideal after his rebirth, however, the sudden appearance of this incident can be regarded as completely breaking his entire plan, how can he sit still and wait for death!

"Beat the drum and cry out!"

In just four words, Liu Fu's hair stood on end all over his body.

Although the Daning Dynasty is not so dark that it does not cry out to the people, you must also have real grievances! And Dong Yuanchang's murder case has been stolen and captured, even he himself has pleaded guilty, just wait for the submission of the official document and ask for beheading, at this time Dong Ce came out to complain about injustice, if the matter is clarified, it will be fine, but if you don't understand, according to the laws of Daning, those who disturb the yamen will be punished with a cane of fifty at least, and punished with the same crime!

But not mentioning these, Liu Fu was thinking, the young man's body is bones, can he afford the drum stick?

Just when Liu Fu was thinking like this, Dong Ce suddenly put one hand on his shoulder and said with a smile: "The one who shouted injustice to my father doesn't necessarily have to ask me to go, it can also be you, a loyal servant!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Fu instantly sweated like rain!

"Don't worry, I'll help you bribe!"

Seeing that the young man's old fox eyes were about to bend into crescents, what else could Liu Fu say, but he sighed for a long time: "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone!" Sir, you ...... Wait for me! ”

The deafening and dull drum sound exploded the Jinling Mansion, and immediately woke up all the people living in the backyard of the Mansion, and after a long period of busy work, the door of the Mansion slowly opened.

"Who's drumming? Bring it to the church! With a loud shout, two officials who stiffened their eyelids entered the yamen with a young man and a young man, and these two were naturally Dong Ce's master servants.

However, when the two entered the lobby, they did not see the figure of the housekeeper, but a middle-aged man wearing a round-necked vermilion robe, a hood, and a mustache.

Dong Ce has learned that the seven grades of the official uniforms of the Ning Dynasty are all wearing pilgrimage crowns, which are similar to the Tongtian crowns, but the details are different, and the more gorgeous and generous, the higher the grade, but the person in front of him is obviously not the official residence of the five grades.

Of course, there is also a difference between the head of the Ning Dynasty and the Tang and Song dynasties, the biggest thing is that there are no soft feet and two wings, just a tether, but not everyone can carry it, but it needs to serve the imperial court.

As if seeing Dong Ce's doubts, the middle-aged man walked to the official chair and stood still, and said coldly: "The Lord of the Mansion is not in the Mansion, and now I will handle things on behalf of the Lu Mansion. ”

"Young boy!" Liu Fu looked at Dong Ce pitifully.

Dong Ce took a step back very ruthlessly and stood aside, as if he didn't know Liu Fu at all.

Liu Fu wilted instantly, he couldn't help but think about it, the two officials stood up at the same time, and swept the killing rod in their hands towards Liu Fu's legs, this sweep directly swept Liu Fu down, just as they raised the killing stick and were about to greet Liu Fu on his back, suddenly there was a crisp sound of "ding", everyone couldn't help but hear the prestige, and saw a piece of gold rolling down at Dong Ce's feet, this time, everyone's eyes widened.

Dong Ce bent down to pick up the gold, and asked with curiosity on his face, "Huh?" I never brought gold, who dropped the gold? Lu Fucheng, it can't be yours, right? In the midst of this, only you are worthy of it. ”

After seeing the gold, Lu Dongzhi's attention was always on the gold, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words at the moment, and then said with a look of disbelief: "Impossible, my gold is well hidden, how can I not know if it falls?" ”

Saying that, this Lu Dongzhi also touched his body, and after a while, he was taken aback and said, "This, this, why is this gone?" I remember hiding it in my arms, but this is the gold I was going to make jewelry for my wife tomorrow, so it won't really fall, right? ”

Lu Dongzhi looked suspicious for a moment, then looked at Dong Ce with a frown and said, "You, you bring it over and I'll take a look, see if I dropped it?" ”

"Yes!" Dong Ce smiled slightly, stepped forward a few steps forward and respectfully put the gold on the table, then hunched his waist and took a few steps back, so he looked indifferent.

Lu Dongzhi pretended to be very observant, picked up the gold and carefully touched it for a long time, before he said "um", nodded, and said with a smile: "If it was really me, alas, when this person is old, he will often lose everything, it's really annoying!" As he spoke, Lu Dongzhi put the gold into his sleeve without moving.

"Okay, you two are drumming today, what's the matter?" Lu Dongzhi went straight to the point, and completely threw the matter of the cane line out of the clouds, and the two officials were naturally very interested and quickly retreated to their original positions.

Liu Fu looked at Dong Ce, and after seeing the young prince nodding at him, he didn't dare to get up, so he knelt down and hugged his fists and said, "Lord Cheng of the Hui Mansion, the little one wants to overturn the case for my master!" ”

"What? Reverse a verdict? Who is your master? Lu Dongzhi frowned.

Liu Fu immediately replied: "My master is Dong Yuanchang, the big proprietor of the Commercial Guild!" ”

"Dong Yuanchang! It's him! Lu Dongzhi was a little panicked all of a sudden, this matter is big or small, after all, Dong Yuanchang is also half an official, and he still has the title of government council here, which is definitely not something he can interfere with.

"This ...... Do you have proof? You must know that Dong Yuanchang's case was obtained with stolen goods, and he also pleaded guilty, the reason for this is probably not something that can be concluded simply, I think you should think about it more! Lu Dongzhi was really reluctant to interfere, but after all, he had accepted other people's gold, so it was not good to refuse directly.

How could Liu Fu say any evidence, so he naturally looked at Dong Ce.

Dong Ce took a deep breath, strode forward and stood still, and arched his hand towards Lu Dongzhi: "Lu Fucheng, I am Dong Ce, the son of Dong Yuanchang, and I also know that this matter is very difficult, but I also hope that Lu Fucheng will not be in a hurry to report it first, and after a few days of grace for me to find out, if my father is indeed a murderer, then Ce can only accompany my father on the road, but if Ce really finds out that it was not killed by my father, I hope Lu Fucheng can be gracious!" ”
