"According to Lord Lu, the forces behind this are unfathomable, and they intend to destroy our Shenzhou and cut off our country's Zuo! This matter should indeed be handled by the emperor himself. What about the case of the theft and sale of official grain?"

"The case of official grain theft and sale should have been the result of a careful conspiracy between our internal officials and illegal grain merchants. He Taishou, do you still remember when the corrupt officials in the grain road were poisoned in one day?"

"How can you not remember that every time I think of this, this official beats his chest. He actually took advantage of the chaos in Chuzhou, when we had no time to take care of him, to instruct the prison kitchen to poison, not only poisoning the corrupt officials in the grain road, but also poisoning more than 70 prison guards in the prison, which is really a loss of conscience. ”

"After this case happened, I suspected that there were still unarrested sins among my Chuzhou officials. This person is so deeply hidden that no one knows his identity. Even the officials on the grain road only knew his identity as the owner of the ghost village.

Since Xiao Yannian's death, the clues of the case of stealing and selling official grain have been almost cut off, which has brought us a lot of difficulty in cracking this case. But fortunately, there is a righteous path in the world, and Providence will not help the abuse.

Just when we were at a loss, a little girl who had been lucky enough to survive came to her senses. We started by killing the sword wound on Haoyue's body, and finally cracked the opponent's martial arts. So he followed the vine and found Zhang Zhidong, the head of the Nanming Sword School.

Subsequently, we immediately arrested and interrogated Zhang Zhidong, and learned that Zhang Zhidong was one of the masterminds in the case of stealing and selling official grain. But unfortunately, before Zhang Zhidong could explain, he was killed again. ”

"Again?" He Xingzhi stopped holding the teacup, "How could this kind of thing happen a second time?"

"Because this black hand hidden in the officialdom has a huge layout. Not only is he waving his fingers at the officialdom, but even a small handyman in the detention center is willing to sacrifice his life for him. This person's scheming is outrageous.

Therefore, I concluded that this person was not only a high authority, but also a high moral authority. ”

When Lu Sheng said this, He Xingzhi's face suddenly became gloomy. In Chuzhou, how many people can be called high-ranking and high-powered? And in addition to the title of high-ranking authority, there is high morality and respect. He Xingzhi had to think of himself......

Looking at Lu Sheng's flickering eyes, He Xingzhi gently put down the teacup, "Lord Lu is suspicious of the old man?"

"Don't dare! Doubt, evidence is always needed. But I don't have the slightest evidence in my hands, and whoever I suspect can't do without evidence.

But at this time, we raided the Nanming Sword Sect and gained again. From the hands of the Nanming Sword Sect, we confiscated a large amount of dirty silver, and at the same time, we also found an unusual letter.

The person who wrote the letter was to ask Zhang Zhidong for a while, and the time to write the letter was in May this year, and the letter was signed by a person named Zhe.

The time of writing the letter happened to be before the theft and sale of official food, and this point in time made me have to wonder, what was the purpose of their meeting?

Taking this as a clue, Xuantianfu immediately investigated who the person who wrote the letter was? Later, it was found out that this philosopher should be Jiang Zhe. Jiang Zhe, Zhang Zhidong's senior brother, was not only outstanding in martial arts but also read poetry and books. ”

"What does Lord Lu mean that this Jiang Zhe is the black hand hidden in my Chuzhou officialdom?"

Because twenty-five years ago, Jiang Zhe was rumored to have a discord with his master and betrayed his master, and there was no news of life or death after that. Taking this as a clue, our soldiers investigated the rivers and lakes and officialdom in two ways.

Among the big and small officials in Chuzhou, there are 17 officials from Chuzhou, and there are eight officials in Chuzhou who have been promoted in the past 10 years after 25 years. Among them, most of them are seventh-grade and eight-grade officials, but only one is in a high position. ”

Speaking of this, He Xingzhi's face changed suddenly, and he instantly turned his head and looked at Lu Xiangyang in surprise.

Lu Xiangyang's face showed a faint sarcastic smile, He Xingzhi's eyes flashed, and finally shook his head, "It's impossible to ......"

"I am a scholar of the imperial examination in the twenty-first year of Chenghua, and now I am also in a high position in the Chuzhou Daotai. The two points that Lord Lu said are very similar to this official...... Lord Lu is saying that the mastermind behind the theft and sale of official food is the official?" Lu Xiangyang gently put down his pen and asked lightly.

"Lord Lu, you just said it yourself, any suspicion must be supported by evidence, and you must not talk nonsense without evidence.

Moreover, Master Lu has been an official for so many years, and he is as honest as water and has a good reputation, if you want to say what shortcomings he has, everyone can still say one, two, three, but if you want to say that he stole and sold official food, embezzled and took bribes?

"I can understand that Taishou-sama doesn't believe me, because I don't believe either. But...... Unfortunately, we found Jiang Zhe's whereabouts in Nanhu Mansion......"

"Oh, so that Jiang Zhe has already been caught?" He Xingzhi asked with a sigh of relief.

Lu Sheng shook his head, "Twenty-five years ago, Jiang Zhe betrayed his master and fell into the river. Maybe his life should not be extinguished, that night of heavy rain, the river swelled, he followed the river to the bank of Nanhu Province, and was rescued by the people by the river.

And Jiang Zhe also successfully lived there. Within two years, Jiang Zhe left with the family who saved him that year, and he has never returned for more than 20 years.

Twenty years have passed, and the people who have seen Jiang Zhe have either passed away or can't remember it. I only know that there was once a Jiang Zhe in the village, but no one knows who he is and where he went.

But it was in that village that I found a strange man. This person is strange, an old woman who is over 90 years old and has been a matchmaker all her life......"

When Lu Sheng said this, his eyes looked at Lu Xiangyang. And Lu Xiangyang, who heard Lu Sheng's words, suddenly changed his face. The gloomy face showed stunned, unbelieving and deep regret.

"What's so strange about an old woman over ninety years old?" He Xingzhi was attracted by Lu Sheng's words, and hurriedly asked curiously.

"The older this old woman gets, the more sober her head becomes, and she remembers not only what happened twenty years ago, but she also remembers many things.

She remembered Jiang Zhe vividly when he was fished up, and later Jiang Zhe married a daughter who became a family, and she was also a matchmaker. So, if Master Lu is Jiang Zhe, I think I can't hide it, right? Master Lu, do you want me to continue?"

He Xingzhi was stunned, turned his head stiffly, and looked at Lu Xiangyang with a stunned face, "This is impossible! Lord Lu, are you mistaken? Why is it Lord Lu again? Didn't you just say that Jiang Zhe was the mastermind behind the scenes?"

"Jiang Zhe is Lu Xiangyang, Lu Xiangyang is Jiang Zhe!" Lu Sheng stood up solemnly, and his momentum gushed out.

"This ...... How could it be? Lord Lu is from the capital...... How could he be Jiang Zhe......"

"Nationality can be changed, and it is easy to change the appearance of a new place of origin. However, this face cannot be changed. Even if Lord Lu doesn't admit it, saying that a ninety-year-old woman can't testify in court, what about Mrs. Lu?

Mrs. Lu grew up in Nanhu Mansion since she was a child, and there are still many childhood acquaintances, and there should be many people who can recognize Mrs. Lu. Moreover, Master Lu, you have not been in the capital for the past three years, you have been in Chuzhou, and you have been living in the ancestral tomb of the family for the past three years.

It wasn't your mother who died three years ago, but your mother-in-law, who built a huge ghost villa for your mother-in-law. You are the owner of the ghost village. ”

Lu Sheng's words were like a thunderbolt smashing on the top of He Xingzhi's head, looking at Lu Xiangyang with a weird smile on his face, He Xingzhi couldn't believe it.

Fang Cai still thought about recommending Lu Xiangyang to succeed him as the Taishou of Chuzhou, but ...... Why did all of a sudden, everything change?

"So...... Has Lord Lu already found the private money I hidden?"

Lu Xiangyang slowly sat up straight, silently raised his head and looked at Lu Sheng. And Lu Xiangyang opened his mouth to speak like this, which instantly defeated all the words of He Xingzhi to excuse him.

"Do you mean the 1,200 gold bricks?"

"Sure enough......" Lu Xiangyang chuckled.

"Yaozhi? is it really you? you...... Why are you doing this? Are you stupid? Putting a bright future ahead of you...... Why are you doing this?"

"Why? Wealth is moving...... Lu Xiangyang smiled, smiling as calmly as a teenager in the sun.

But all corrupt officials and corrupt officials are because wealth moves people's hearts. Money, this is a good thing, money can make ghosts push ghosts, and money can also make ghosts push ghosts. As long as you have money, you can get everything you want, for money, what is there why?

However, the reason why wealth moves people's hearts seems so pale in front of Lu Xiangyang. If it's because Lu Xiangyang has gradually degenerated in the past ten years, it's okay if he is slowly corroded.

However, Lu Xiangyang's life remains the same. His life is still poor, he never enjoys it, and he never likes to be a woman...... What does he want money for?

He has no children, no relatives, and only lives with his wife. He should have no desires and no desires, what does he want?

Suddenly become greedy? If you don't move, it's just a shocking case?

Don't say that He Xingzhi doesn't believe it, even Lu Sheng doesn't believe it either.

"I think, Lord Lu can't see Chuzhou's new policy, right?" Lu Sheng sighed softly.

"On the contrary!" Lu Xiangyang smiled strangely, "He Taishou and Lord Lu's new policies are highly respected, and even every step of your new policy, I have recorded it and repeatedly scrutinized it."

Your New Deal is like a mirror, and I can't look at the ugliness of the New Deal, which I have been proud of all my life.

When I was a child, I wanted to fight the sword. I thought that the world was full of sunshine and the rivers and lakes were gorgeous and moving. But I didn't expect that in my heart, the master I regarded as my father, told me with a sword that this river and lake were black.

I never thought of competing for the position of the master, and the master is willing to teach the head to whoever he wants. But...... Why...... Is it because I'm too famous and shining too bright, so I should die? Is my death just to pave the way for my junior brother?

That night, I was seriously injured and fell into the river. A body of martial arts, ninety percent is wasted.

The rivers and lakes are getting farther and farther away from me, and I still have temples to go. I studied hard and forgot to eat and sleep. Two years later, I was in high school.

But why, officialdom is also black? But up and down the court, left and right in the locality, who is doing their duty? They are all making money, making money, making money...... Hahaha......"
