Lu Yan said a few words to Yang Duanhe outside the hall, then turned around and said goodbye, returned to the mansion to change into regular clothes, and walked straight towards Zhao Tuo's old mansion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, Zhao Tuo is still in the dark now, just now he came back from measuring the land outside, and when he heard that Lu Yan came to visit, where did he dare to slack off, he immediately ordered someone to bring Lu Yan to the living room for hospitality.

Zhao Tuo tidied up his clothes a little, and then came to the living room, seeing Lu Yan's brows frowning slightly, he suddenly felt bad in his heart, "Pingnanhou, there must be something bad happening." Zhao Tuo bowed and asked.

Lu Yan slowly put down the teacup, "Naturally, otherwise I wouldn't have come to visit you after going down to the palace, where did you buy the land that day?" ”

"It's just an old man in the city, why does the Hou Ye ask me so?" Zhao Tuo replied suspiciously.

"Is the old man's surname Xin?" Lu Yan said a little calmly, and Zhao Tuo next to him became a little anxious when he heard Lu Yan say this.

"How did Master Hou know, few people knew about this." Zhao Tuo hurriedly said.

Lu Yan immediately got up, "Do you know who that old man is and who the land is?" They are all General Xin Sheng's domestic slaves and clan land, but you are good to seize it. ”

Zhao Tuo was a little confused in two sentences, and he really didn't know about this matter, "At that time, the retainer said that the old man asked for three times the price, so he bought it." ”

"People are subordinates of General Xin Sheng, how can they be short of money, you go and call your two retainers over and ask them to know the reason." Lu Yan said helplessly.

Zhao Tuo immediately sent his courtiers to bring the two house slaves to the living room, presumably the two house slaves also guessed the matter, behaved very cautiously, and kept looking at Lu Yan.

"You two have to hide it, and quickly tell the truth." Lu Yan said in a gloomy voice.

The two retainers saw Lu Yan angry, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, how could Pingnanhou be offended, "The adults spare their lives, the small ones know that they are wrong, and the small ones know that they are wrong." ”

"On that day, the lord took a fancy to the field and did not buy it, and in order to reassure the lord, the two of us forced the old man to bet on the title deed the next day, and all the land belonged to the lord." The retainer next to him said tremblingly.

Zhao Tuo sat aside a little weakly after hearing this, his eyes were a little sluggish, he also knew who Xin Sheng was, he was a person who followed Wang Jian to fight in the north and south, how could he offend.

"Master Hou, you have to save me." Zhao Tuo said anxiously, and knelt in front of Lu Yan at the same time, which showed that Zhao Tuo was really anxious.

Lu Yan hurriedly helped Zhao Tuo up, "The matter has come to this point, and you can only admit your mistake." Lu Yan said slowly.

"But this is all done by these two dogs, what does it have to do with me?" Zhao Tuo said with some grievances.

"But this is your retainer after all, if you say that it is not your instructions, who in the world will believe it, in my opinion, it is best for you to admit your mistake in front of the king, and I will help you intercede when the time comes." Lu Yan said helplessly.

At this moment, Lu Yan also realized the pain of what it means to be an official who can't make his own decisions, but as a minister, he must understand etiquette and abide by the law after all.

"This matter has nothing to do with me, and when the time comes, send these two retainers out to prove my innocence, and only then can the king trust me." Zhao Tuo still said without giving up.

Lu Yan threw off his sleeves and stood up from Zhao Tuo's living room, "Zhao Tuo, you just listen to my advice, if you let these two retainers go out, your crime is serious, take advantage of this time, you can return the land first, and then go to General Yang's house to apologize, so as to protect yourself." ”

Zhao Tuo slowly walked over from the side, just pacing back and forth in the living room, and finally nodded, "You two dogs, go and return the title deed quickly, and I will go to the Yang Mansion to apologize after I pack up." ”

Lu Yan was relieved after hearing this, "Since this is the case, then I will leave first, and you can do the rest by yourself." Lu Yan said and walked over to the outside of the house.

"Master Hou, aren't you helping me?" Zhao Tuo said with some pleading.

"If I go, it will only cause trouble, today I will intercede for you above the court, if it is in the past, Yang Duanhe will definitely think that I colluded with you to bully their family, it is better for you to go yourself." Lu Yan said seriously.

Zhao Tuo also felt reasonable, and didn't say much, Lu Yan saw that Zhao Tuo's things were arranged, so he walked straight to the Wangyi Palace, although he had been made a marquis, but the position of the young master was still there, the meaning was obvious, Lu Yan was still the teacher of Hu Hai Gongzi, and he dared to slack off.

The two retainers were at fault, so they rushed to the clan land that day and burned the title deed in front of Xin Lao, and re-established a land deed and handed it to Xin Lao.

By the way, he said a few good words, and Xin Lao was also dizzy, but since the new title deed was established, Xin Lao didn't think much about it, and accepted it directly, in Xin Lao's opinion, it should be Xin Chai who solved the matter, so Zhao Tuo ordered someone to send the title deed back.

Yang Duanhe outside the mansion, Zhao Tuo was a little hesitant, and finally knocked on the door of the mansion, after the introduction of the courtiers, Yang Duanhe was already sitting in the living room of the mansion, and Xin Chai was also sitting next to him.

"Commander Zhao, what are you doing here today?" Yang Duanhe said with an unkind face.

Zhao Tuo also immediately bowed and saluted, "That General Yang, Miss Xin Chai, all the land has been returned, please forget about this matter." "It's very humble in words.

Yang Duanhe just sneered, it turned out that this kid came for the matter of the land, and he was also surprised to see him behave so humbly.

"Commander Zhao, I knew why I had to do it today, if there is anything to tell the king of Qin in the court." Xin Chai said very politely.

Seeing Zhao Tuo's behavior like this, he only thought that he was a sycophant villain, so he didn't like it even more in his heart.

"Miss Xin Chai, you are wrong, it was just two retainers who were ignorant that day so they offended Xin Lao, today I have sent them back the title deed, and they have not touched the land." Zhao Tuo said helplessly.

Yang Duanhe looked at it for a while, and he also understood a little bit in his heart, Lu Yan had pleaded for him in the court today, and it was impossible to say if this was Lu Yan's strategy.

"There is no room for negotiation in this matter, if Commander Zhao is not convinced, he can sue in person in front of the king tomorrow." Yang Duanhe said indifferently, not giving Zhao Tuo any face.

Zhao Tuo stood on the living room and said a lot, Yang Duanhe didn't even send a cup of warm tea, from his attitude, Zhao Tuo also knew that he had a decision in his heart.

Seeing that the discussion was not very effective, Zhao Tuo had no choice but to return to the house, thinking that he sincerely admitted his mistakes, coupled with Lu Yan's intercession, things might take a turn for the better in the court tomorrow, so he was relieved.
