Early morning.

Lu Jinping sat leisurely on a recliner in the back garden. This is a chair specially customized by him from the shape of modern society, which was not available in the Tang Dynasty.

The continuous snow has turned the whole world into a silvery white world. Even his pond has been turned into a frozen mirror. But Lu Jinping is still lying here very leisurely, because the sun is very good today, and the winter sun shines warmly on his body, which is very comfortable, although it is not enough to melt the ice and snow quickly, but it is enough for him to feel warm.

After the last time it was clear that the death penalty case of Qu Butcher was an unjust case, Lu Jinping was rewarded by the emperor's holy decree, and Feng Tingshi was very happy about this and specially gave him a month's vacation. Of course, it includes the ten days of normal vacation for the Spring Festival. That gave him twenty days of rest.

So Lu Jinping was very comfortable lying in the back garden and basking in the sun. The wind and the sun are beautiful, and as the year approaches, all the holiday things at home are already available, all of which are the result of the busy work of the pretty girl Ye Qingqing, so that Lu Jinping can be at ease.

The big tree behind him was also covered with snowflakes, including the bird's nest that he and Ye Qingqing had climbed up to the treetops, which was still on the treetops. The eggs that Ye Qingqing was reluctant to take down at the beginning had already hatched, and they were already hovering in the air at this moment. Lu Jinping watched them fly in the cold wind very pleasantly.

However, this pleasant day did not last, because the porter of the inner house came in a hurry.

Lu Jinping sighed and turned his head to look at her: "Don't tell me if there are any cases that need me to go, I'm on vacation now!" ”

The porter accompanied Xiao Fuli and said: "Sir, it's not a case, someone came to visit you, but it seems that there is something important I want to entrust you to handle, and I brought a load of gifts." ”

Lu Jinping sighed again and said, "It seems that these people know that I am now waiting for money to redeem my family's old antique furniture, so they all tempt me with money." I really can't help it. ”

The porter smiled and said, "No, it's not because you are capable, sir." That's why so many people have come to ask you to do something. ”

As soon as he heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Jinping's mouth, this is also true, in fact, it is also very good to live a full life. Lu Jinping is also unwilling to be idle all day, there is something to do, especially things that only he can do, and the sense of accomplishment is still very pleasant. What's more, there is money to be made.

So Lu Jinping came to the front hall and saw four people sitting in the hall. An old man and three young people, one of whom was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old, looked dignified, but they all had a gloomy face and didn't speak, and when they saw Lu Jinping coming in, they smiled together and got up to salute.

After listening to the porter's introduction, the old man smiled and said, "Sir, the old man Zhang Yousheng, these three are my virtuous nephews." ”

A young man stared at him with round leopard eyes. He said angrily: "Who is your virtuous nephew?" If you don't hand over the money, you want us to recognize you as an uncle. ”

The other two also chimed in: "Exactly, this time, if Lord Lu finds out that it was really you who swallowed the baby, we will fight with you to the death!" ”

The old man said, "I did not swallow this treasure, I am telling the truth." ”

"Who else but you ......" all three stood up and shouted at the old man.

Lu Jinping frowned and said, "If you want to quarrel, it's better to change places and don't stay with me." ”

As soon as they heard this, these people shut up.

The old man Zhang Yousheng clenched his fists and said, "Sir." The three of them are too reckless, they are young people in the end, and they don't know the truth of the matter, which is a long story. Please be patient and listen to us......"

Lu Jinping shook his head and said: "I don't want to listen to the story, and I don't have much patience to listen to a few of you, arguing about what is right and wrong, short and clear, and clear in a few words." ”

Zhang Yousheng nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Okay, I must make it clear briefly." - If only the lord could help us with this. We will be grateful. This load of silk is just a greeting gift. After that, he pointed to a load of brocade in the corner of the house and said with a smile.

Lu Jinping nodded expressionlessly, didn't speak, took his robe and sat down on the couch, and said, "Please sit down too, sit down and say." ”

The four of them sat down separately, and the old man said, "This is the thing, more than 20 years ago, I followed the three of their fathers to serve in the same army, and because of their similar personalities, they married Jinlan. Conquest and fighting are all together, covering each other. During a campaign, we stumbled upon a treasure ......"

As soon as he said this, the leopard-eyed young man said, "What did you get by accident?" My father said that when you fought against the Khitan, you killed one of their generals and seized the Khitan national treasure he guarded, and you didn't dare to sell it, so you had to hide it and sell it after the rumors passed, but it was swallowed up by you! ”

Lu Jinping's eyes lit up: "Khitan national treasure? ”

Zhang Yousheng blushed and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense!" ”

The leopard-eyed young man said angrily, "Who said nonsense? It was meant to be! Moreover, if you don't tell the truth about this matter, how can you ask the lord for help? If you want to ask the lord to help find the treasure, then the lord will know sooner or later. It's better to tell the lord now, it's more convenient for the lord to find out about this matter. ”

The other two young men nodded in agreement.

Zhang Yousheng smiled bitterly and nodded: "Okay, you have all said it, can you still hide it?" -- At that time, we were fighting against the Khitan with the army, and in a fierce battle, the four of us worked together to kill a Khitan general, and found this treasure from him, I had been a buddy in a jewelry store for several years before joining the army, so I was quite knowledgeable, and I recognized this thing as quite valuable at once, but I still told the three of them truthfully, and I did not hide it. ”

When they learned that it was a priceless treasure, they offered to divide it equally among the four of them. Because before this, the four of us married Jin Lan like brothers, and this time it was the four of us who joined forces to kill this fierce general and found this thing from him. But this is the spoils of war, according to military discipline, all the spoils of war must be handed over and not allowed to be swallowed privately, but of course we are not willing to hand over the Khitan treasures that we fought so hard to take our lives. Therefore, after discussing it, we decided to hide the treasure first and wait for the rumors to pass before selling it for money. ”

The leopard-eyed young man was very angry, and said, "It's a shame that my father and the three of them believe in you, so I hid things with you, but you not only swallowed the treasure privately, but also killed my father and the father of both of them, how should this account be calculated?" ”

The old man Zhang Yousheng had always been laughing with him, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but sink his face and said: "I married Jin Lan with the father of the three of you, born and died, fought on the battlefield in blood, and were like brothers and sisters, how could it be possible to kill the three of them?" It's too unreasonable for you to say this, you don't treat me as an elder at all, you say this in private, I just put up with you when you are young and have limited knowledge, but you are still talking nonsense without evidence in front of the lord, then I am not welcome. ”

The leopard-eyed young man stood up, sneered with his hands behind his back, and said, "What can you do if you're not welcome?" Want to get your hands dirty? Look at your beard, I'll let you make three moves. ”

Zhang Yousheng sneered and said, "What can you do if you can beat me?" What if you beat me to death? I said that it was not in my hands, we didn't dig it out, we didn't find it, why are you sure that I swallowed it? What a joke. ”

The leopard-eyed young man rubbed his hands and said, "I will not kill you, I will beat you all over the ground to find your teeth, and I will beat you until you tell the truth and hand over the buried treasure." ”

Zhang Yousheng said: "Don't think I'm afraid of you, I really want to fight, whoever beats is not necessarily looking for teeth all over the ground." However, I really can't bear to do anything with you, after all, I am a brother and sister to your father. You are a junior, and I don't want to bully the small, so before I came, I proposed to discuss this matter with your mother, and we will find a superior person to find out this matter and solve this matter, so as not to hurt our respective harmony. Your mother also agreed, and the three of you also agreed at that time, why do you want to use force in front of the lord now? ”

The leopard-eyed young man seemed to be a little unreasonable when he heard this, and said angrily: "It's because you don't tell the truth, that's right, my mother has already said that she will find out this matter from Lord Lu, if this treasure is really not on you, I will kowtow to you to make amends, and recognize you as the fourth uncle." But if the lord finds out that the treasure is on you, you swallow it, you have to spit it out, and my father's share of it must not be missing! The same is true of the two of them, this was said to be good, and the letter from my father clearly stated this, and the letter was signed and signed by the four of you, so you must deny it! ”

Zhang Yongsheng smiled bitterly and said: "Of course this matter is true, how did we agree at the beginning, I will do the same, but unfortunately this thing is really not on me, and I don't know where it is buried, how can I tell you?" Besides, there were three of you fathers on the island at that time, Wang Shiduo's father I saw that he was dead, and you also saw it, but the bodies of the remaining two were not found, they may still be alive, and it is unknown if they have dug up the treasure, both of them know the mountains and caves where the treasure is buried, and they can find the location of the treasure. They haven't shown up to now, why don't you talk about them? ”

The girl didn't speak, and when she heard this, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Fourth uncle, did you say this but wronged my father for swallowing this baby?" ”

Zhang Yousheng hurriedly waved his hand and said: "You misunderstood, I said that it is just this possibility, and I don't have any evidence, so I won't talk nonsense." Unlike some people who don't have any evidence, but keep saying that it's me, if I really find the baby, won't I run? Why do you want to come back to you and tell you that your father might be killed? ”

The leopard-eyed young man rolled his eyes: "Who knows what your idea is!" (To be continued.) )
