Lu Jinji only felt a splitting headache, he did drink that night, and indeed drank too much, as for who he drank with and how he drank too much, but he couldn't remember to die. But at the moment, he didn't have time to think about these details, and it was right to hurry home and report his safety. After staying in the barracks for two days, Lu Jinji always felt that his psychological face was not steady, and he went up and down.

Since he left the barracks, Lu Jinji couldn't help but scold Li Xin, and he didn't even call the sedan chair man to him, so did he let him walk back like this? But now is not the time to talk about pomp and circumstance, so I have no choice but to slowly wander back to the inner city.

After walking for a while, Lu Jinji only felt a thorn in his back, and it seemed that every projected gaze contained a strange taste. This made him feel uncomfortable, and there were no flowers on his body, how could his eyes be so obscene? This feeling of being exhibited in public made him feel humiliated.

Of course, this account still had to be recorded on Li Xin's head, and in his opinion, it was obvious that he deliberately wanted to embarrass him, so that he could walk back to the inner city. After enduring tens of thousands of scorching eyes, Lukingi finally entered the inner city.

In the inner city, ordinary people could not enter, and the shrunken gaze that followed him all the way suddenly disappeared almost without a trace. I finally sent it down in one breath, thinking that after I went home, I must first change this obscure clothes, and then take a good shower, which is comfortable. But just as he was about to arrive at the door of his house, he heard a commotion in front of him, with noises and crying.

Lu Jinji couldn't help frowning, when did the inner city land become so unruly, what kind of system did it become to cry and cry. But when he turned to the alley, he was shocked to realize that something was wrong, and after a closer look, he almost suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes, why did his door disappear?

To be precise, the gatehouse of the gate of his house has collapsed into a piece of rubble, why has there been such an accident in the house after only two days and nights without being at home? The sharp-eyed housekeeper saw at a glance that it was the old man who was back, and the old housekeeper hurriedly crawled, crying and crying, and came to Lu Jinji with a handful of snot and tears.

"Master, master, you can come back, eldest son, eldest prince let the government arrest him!"

Seeing the virtue of the old housekeeper, Lu Jinji's heart chuckled, and an ominous premonition hung in his heart, but he pretended to be calm, so that the old housekeeper would not cry and cry in the middle, what kind of system. The old butler barely held back his crying under the master's reprimand, and then Lu Jinji asked:

"From the beginning, what happened in the house during the two days I was not at home? Let's start with the gate! ”

The old housekeeper couldn't hold back his snot and tears.

"Master, it's terrible, last night the government used a cannon to blow the gate of the mansion to pieces, and the eldest prince was kidnapped without saying anything......"

Lu Jinji's mind suddenly was in turmoil, and he heard the old butler say that Li Xin actually used a cannon to bombard his city gate, which was really unbelievable, but he couldn't believe the rubble and rubble all over his eyes, not to mention that his nose was stirring, and his nasal cavity was filled with the stench of burning sulfur. He finally understood that the reason why Li Xin was hard first and then soft was not because he changed his attitude towards him because of external pressure, but because he wanted to drag him down.

After suppressing his anger, Lu Jinji asked the old butler coldly.

"Tell me, on what charges did the government arrest Da Lang?"

Lu Jinji knows very well that with Li Xin's cautious character, since he comes to arrest people with great fanfare, he must have ready-made charges, otherwise it is impossible to be helpless against those hands and feet in his secret all the time. It was precisely after he was well aware of Li Xin's character weakness that he dared to act resolutely, and his years of experience in struggle made him sure that he would not be caught by the other party. It's just that I never expected that one of my bad moves would be in a dangerous situation of losing the whole game.

Over and over again, he admonished himself to be calm, to be calm.

"The eldest son, the eldest prince, he sent someone to burn the Gu family's newly opened shop, and was caught by the government. The villain went to visit the prison several times in the morning, and no one took ...... money for it."

Lu Jinji felt that he couldn't understand it, what newly opened shop, what kind of eldest prince bribed people to burn other people's shops, it was not logical. Seeing the master's dazed face, the old housekeeper explained in detail: "The Gu family's shop is the newly opened shop of the Gu shopkeeper who self-immolated, and also, and shouted in public......" Speaking of this, the old housekeeper specially lowered his voice and approached Lu Jinji a few steps, and continued: "He also shouted in public, saying that unless he dies, the shop will be closed, otherwise he will follow us to fight to the end, and give us three days to let him close the shop, his attitude is very arrogant." The eldest prince should be angry, so he sent someone to burn his shop. ”

After listening to the old butler's explanation, Lu Jinji was really angry, and there were a thousand ways to make him kneel against a small trader, but his own son chose one of the most stupid methods, using force and violence. If it weren't for the fact that there were many people outside, he really wanted to pull the old butler and ask him to tell him the ins and outs of this matter, to explain that there were too many incredibles.

"Where did the surname Gu get the money to open a shop? Why don't you send someone to continue to collect the debt? ”

The old housekeeper weighed it again and again, but still felt that it was part of the truth to tell the master.

"At that time, it was crazy outside that the old man took the initiative to go to the General Military Mansion to surrender and was detained on the spot, and even the heads of the Zhou family and the Wang family were alarmed. But there is no leader in our house, and we can't sit idly by, otherwise there will be more and more merchants who will reopen and reopen in a few days. ”

Lu Jinji was depressed to the extreme, as soon as he came out, his son went in again, and he was the eldest son he was extremely optimistic about and had been cultivating as a successor. The old housekeeper still saved face for him, if even the news of his arrest when he was a maiden was told the truth, Lu Jinji would have to be so angry that he vomited three liters of blood.

Lu Jinji had to admit that he lost this game, and he lost very badly, I am afraid that the minds of the merchants are active, if once the market is reopened, then his abacus will be completely disappointed, so the top priority now is to deal with this matter, the lender Hou Si died, no one did these dirty jobs for him, and he had to go into battle in person in the end.

"Send someone to warn the shopkeepers who owe money, whoever dares to open the shop will let them pay back the money immediately, otherwise there will be no room for turning around!"

"Then, what should the surnamed Gu do?"

This person is a very annoying stumbling block for the Lu family at present, and this kind of insignificant character is originally sent to support him when he gets in the way. But now that this person has the figure of the government behind him, and then directly conflicts with it, I am afraid it will just give those who are eyeing him the excuse to do it.

He quickly accepted this cruel reality, and Li Xin released him probably just waiting for him to surrender and save his son, and then put forward conditions for the market to be boycotted. At the critical moment of life and death, for the survival of the Lu family, he had to sacrifice his son who was originally very optimistic about him.

"Pass it on, no one is allowed to act without permission, and no one is allowed to mention last night's incident casually, otherwise, it will make him regret being born into a mother's womb!"

In fact, there is no need for him to ban it at all, "Taiyuan Afternoon News" has already described the matter in detail many times, adding oil and vinegar to the details, saying that it is an exaggeration, and many people can almost memorize it.

Just when the merchants in the city saw Lu Jinji swaggering out of the barracks, thinking that the Lu family had won this game again, the "Taiyuan Afternoon News" that was sold at noon that day actually shook out explosive news again.

According to the newspaper, according to absolutely reliable information, the Taiyuan Prefecture has thoroughly grasped the facts of Lu Jinji's crime of embezzling other people's land and property by all kinds of despicable means in collusion with local ruffians and gentry. Among them, a few typical cases were picked up and reported in their original form.

Several cases of embezzlement of land and property, the newspapers described them vividly, and what is even more eye-catching is that there are actually stories of murder and selling women interspersed, which makes people sigh at the difficulty and danger of the world.

The Lu family kept the contents of the "Taiyuan Afternoon News" very secret, this was the decision of the lady, Lu Jinji has been stimulated too much today, and now he can only delay it for a while.

In addition, Mrs. Lu felt sorry for her son, but she was never willing to sacrifice her son to fulfill the future of their Lu family......

At the same time, Li Xin was discussing with Tian Fuzhen, Lu Sizhen, and Master Guo how to deal with Lu Zhaolin, who was arrested overnight. Master Guo and Lu Sizhen advocate that the devil of Shun Teng and bring out Lu Jinji behind him, as long as Lu Jinji's crime is made into a room, it will be a salary draw from the bottom of the market boycott, and when the time comes, I am afraid that there is no need to persuade those merchants to rush to resume the market.

However, Li Xin denied this mentions.

"The charge of inciting a market strike can be borne by Lu Zhaolin first, and the old guy can not touch him first, there are too many bad people, and there must always be a first come, first come, and the order can be easy and then difficult. Moreover, the charge of inciting a market strike is not easy for the common people to resonate. As far as Lu Jinji is concerned, if we make every effort to investigate the facts of his crimes of seizing land and property, murdering people's lives, and abducting and selling the wives and daughters of good families, and then go to trial in public, it will arouse strong resonance among the people, and in this way, we can completely eliminate the adverse impact of this person on Taiyuan Mansion in Shanxi. ”

Master Guo high-fived and praised: "The villain understands, that's why the general allowed the secret case to be published in the "Taiyuan Afternoon News", I think it is to warm up the old things!" ”

Li Xin nodded, "Yes!" It's just that the warm-up is not enough, and it is not logical enough to clean up this person! Then he said happily: "We have made such a breakthrough in the progress of the case, and we really have to thank Lu Jinji for making a foolish move, which brought inspiration to Ben Shuai!" Tomorrow's "Afternoon News" can even expose this case! ”

Li Xin then placed a stack of notes on the table.
