Xu Liang and the three of them came out of the second hall and came to the outside of the county office, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Ge Zhubo hesitated and said, "Brother Xu, isn't it too unkind to frame Lord Feng like us?" ”

When Xu Liang heard this, he paused, and secretly felt ashamed in his heart, and said: "My Lord Ge, you don't want to think about how dangerous you were in front of Qin Cha just now, we don't pay attention to Feng Daolin, I'm afraid it's hard to say whether we can come out of the second hall." Indeed, I admit that it is a bit unauthentic for me to frame a colleague who died in the line of duty just now, but," Xu Liang looked at Wang Zhixian and Ge Zhubo with blazing eyes, and said solemnly: "Don't forget the two adults, let's pick up the cadres earlier at this moment is serious, as for Lord Feng, to say something disrespectful, he is dead anyway, no matter how the court is, it will not hold a dead person responsible." If we can pass this hurdle safely, we will take care of Lord Feng's family more in the future. ”

Wang Zhixian also interjected at this time: "Old Ge, what Brother Xu said is the truth. We are all mud bodhisattvas crossing the river now, and it is difficult to protect ourselves, so it is important to think more about ourselves. ”

The investigation continued for another two days, but nothing was found. Lu Yushi was unwilling to go to the people for a day of secret visits, although he heard some different statements, but it was only a few words, and he failed to find conclusive evidence.

On this day, Lu Yushi came back and walked under the corridor of the second hall, when suddenly a paper ball flew from a distance and landed at the feet of Lu Yushi, Lu Yushi picked it up and took a look, only to see that it was written: "At noon tomorrow, the Changjiang Wharf will be built, and the sun will shine for a thousand years." Lu Yushi was secretly vigilant in his heart, quietly put it into his arms, glanced around, saw no suspicious characters, and returned to the second hall at the moment.

Qin is a regular official, and Yang Suo, the head of the official department, is drinking tea leisurely.

Lu Yushi said excitedly: "My lord, there is a clue!" ”

Director Yang was so shocked that his hand holding the cup shook and asked, "Oh? What clues? ”

Lu Yushi was about to tell about the paper group, and suddenly remembered that this Yang was the confidant of Zhou Yingqiu, the ministry, and recalled the rumors he heard before leaving Beijing, saying that someone wanted to make a fuss about the affairs of Jianchang County and pull the local high-ranking officials in Jiangxi to dismount. The excitement at the moment was retracted, and he arched his hand and said: "Hehe, it's still unclear, after tomorrow, I'll see it." ”

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Director Yang squeezed out a little smile and said uneasily.

When Lu Yushi came out of the second hall, Director Yang immediately asked people to summon Xu Liang, the history of Jianchang.

Xu Liangbi came in respectfully and saluted Director Yang.

Director Yang couldn't care about being polite, and said bluntly: "Xu Liang, you and I are both people from Lord Zhou, I got the news that your people want bad things!" ”

Xu Liang was taken aback, and when he came out of the second hall, he went to find Wang Zhixian and Ge Zhubo, and mentioned the news of Master Yang, and the two of them were also so anxious that they jumped to their feet.

"Damn, which bastard is so disobedient, let me find out, I have to let people pick his skin!" Wang Zhixian, who has always been gentle, will also be rude.

The three of them were at a loss, and they hurried in from the outside to catch them.

Ge Zhubo immediately became angry and scolded: "What are you doing, the fire is burning your ass?" ”

The catcher was scolded and shrunk his neck, and accompanied him to report carefully: "The adults are angry, and the little ones are coming from Makou Town, and there is something important to report." ”

"Say!" When the three of them heard the word Makouzhen, they immediately looked nervous and asked urgently.

"Report to the three adults, the county respects the little one who stared at the money principal, disappeared in Makou Town early this morning, and the small ones searched Makou Town several times but didn't find it, and the small felt that the matter was serious, so they rushed to report."

Xu Liang and the three of them glanced at each other, and their faces were shocked. The secret path turned out to be a bad thing, and it was the owner of the house who sent out to urge the autumn grain to do the money!

Wang Zhixian sent the catcher out quickly, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and shouted repeatedly: "What to do, what to do?" What can I do? ”

Lord Ge stared at Xu Liang directly.

Xu Liang thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, the two adults, judging from the information provided by Lord Yang, I'm afraid that this Qian Yi has not seen Lu Yushi for the time being." In that case, then we have time to remedy. ”

"How can I remedy it?" Wang Zhixian wailed: "That Qian Yi Wang bastard doesn't know which girl's pomegranate skirt he is hiding in, where to find it?" ”

Xu Liang shook his head and said with a smile: "That money dwarf is hidden and it's hard to find, but why do we have to find him?" Hmph, Qian Short always wants to see Lu Yushi, as long as we send someone to follow Lu Yushi, we are not afraid of not finding Qian Yushi! ”

The next day, at noon.

Three cargo ships docked at the Jianchangjiang wharf, and more than 40 porters were moving bags of goods down. Lu Yushi, who was dressed in a cyan robe, brought four disguised Qincha guards and pretended to be a big businessman, watching the porters move the goods, while paying attention to the movements around him.

In the distance, a few foot merchants pushed grocery trucks, parked on the edge of the dock, and sat there shouting for sales.

On a cargo ship in the middle, Qian Yiban, the owner of Jianchang County, pushed open the window of the ship and looked at the man in Tsing Yi standing outside. Knowing that this was the investigation of the case, he looked around carefully, but found nothing abnormal, so he put his mind at ease, straightened his clothes, pushed open the door and walked out of the cabin, and shouted to the man in green clothes: "The sun is shining for a thousand years!" ”

As soon as Lu Yushi raised his head, he saw a short and fat man standing on the top of the boat in the middle, so he guessed that it was the person who threw paper balls to him. So he took four guards with him to meet him.

At this time, Lu Yushi suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that the few merchants who were still selling just now had abandoned the truck and ran past him like a gust of wind.

Lu Yushi secretly wondered that when he saw those people rushing straight to the boat in the middle, the short and fat man on the top of the boat showed a panicked look on his face, and shouted, "Rat Dare!" He shouted to the guards behind him, "Quick, protect that Humpty Dumpty on the ship!" ”

However, it was too late, and when the four guards drew their knives and hurriedly caught up with the boat, the merchants had already hugged the fat man and jumped straight into the Jianchang River.

Lu Yushi rushed back to the county office angrily, and immediately summoned the three officials from Jianchang to answer.

"What are you guys doing here?! The truth can never be hidden. Wang Zhixian, you said it yourself, what were you doing at the time of the incident! Lu Yushi slapped the table and shouted.

Wang Zhixian already knew that Qian Yi had been subdued, and he had a bottom in his heart, so he raised his neck at the moment and said straightly: "If you go back to Shangjiao, Xiaguan has already reported it, and Xiaguan personally went to the city to stop and kill Shui Kou, but he was hit by Shui Kou's hidden arrow, and he was carried off the city." ”

Lu Yushi stared at him viciously, and he didn't believe Wang Zhixian's nonsense at all, but Wang Zhixian's grade was the same as Lu Yushi's, so he didn't scare him at all, turned his head away, and stopped looking at him.

"Ge Qiao!" Lu Yushi shouted at Ge Zhubo again: "You really had a headache that day? Hmph, you have to think clearly, the crime of bullying the king is to punish the nine clans! ”

Master Ge replied slowly: "My lord, I really have a headache, ouch, Xia Guan is so old that he can't stand the toss, this head, you see, hurts again, ouch." ”

Lu Yushi was so angry that his eyes were about to pop out. He said fiercely at Xu Liang again: "Xu Liang, what about you?!" ”

Xu Liang smacked his lips, spread his hands innocently, and said, "My lord, the lower officials didn't come to Jianchang at that time......

"Huh?" Lu Yushi was so angry that he was about to go crazy, and pointed at Xu Liang and the three of them with trembling fingers, shouting: "You guys! Good! Come on, take these three down to this official! ”

With a shout, more than a dozen brightly armored guards rushed into the second hall, coming up to arrest people.

Xu Liang and the others were dumbfounded, and Wang Zhixian shouted: "The surname is Lu, Wang is an official of the court, you are a small seven-rank inspector of the imperial history, and you have no right to arrest me!" ”

Lu Yushi sneered.

More than a dozen wolf-like Qincha guards escorted three of them and were about to go out.

"Stop!" A majestic cold drink arrived at the right time. The envoy of the Qin Mission, Yang Suoxiu, the head of the ministry, walked in with a cold face, glared at his subordinates, and shouted: "All retreat!" ”

"Lord Yang," Lu Yushi was anxious, and stepped forward and said, "These three people are really bold and lawless, and they should be severely punished!" ”

Director Yang glanced at him and asked, "Lord Lu, tell me, why did the three of them act recklessly?" ”

Lu Yushi said angrily: "The three of them disregarded the law and discipline and openly obstructed the investigation of the case!" ”

"Is there any evidence? Witnesses? Evidence? ”

Lu Yushi glared and said, "The four guards brought by the subordinate officials at that time can be testified!" ”

When Director Yang heard this, he rolled his eyes and scolded: "Nonsense, how can the Qincha guards testify!" ”

In Lu Yushi's eyes as if he was going to eat people, Xu Liang and the three of them walked out of the second hall of the county government in disgrace.

On the way back to the history room, Xu Liang said to Wang Zhixian and Ge Zhubo uneasily: "Two adults, although this level has passed now, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no second Qian Yi, is there a problem with Gong Deyan who was sent to Qiujin?" ”

Wang Zhixian scolded viciously: "Regardless of whether there is a problem or not, it is better to kill by mistake than to let go." Lao Ge, you go and give an order, let people pay close attention to the palace master's affairs, if he moves, arrest me immediately! ”

"Yes, the next official will do it!" Ge Zhubo replied and left in a hurry.

"County Zun, what is the origin of this Lu Chengyuan, so fierce?" Xu Liang asked curiously.

"Him?" Wang Zhixian thought about it, and smiled helplessly: "If you want to talk about this Lu Yushi, it is really a stone in a dung pit, smelly and hard." Three years ago, the county released Jianchang that meeting, he was in the Inspectorate as a supervisor of the imperial history, except for the emperor, this old boy did not buy anyone's account, and it was recognized as annoying in the court! However, although this person is very annoying, he is really clean and self-conscious, diligent and thrifty, so that people can't catch the slightest handle, otherwise, I am afraid that he will be killed more than ten years ago. ”
