Chapter 247: Cutting the Grass and Eradicating the Roots

Duan Jingqi not only sent the officers and soldiers of the Criminal Department but also sent a pair of personal guards to follow, and the originally peaceful and dark imperial city was instantly woken up by the noise, these people in silver armor and swords held torches, and their steps were heavy and hurried through the streets of the imperial city, attracting hundreds of people to open the door to watch.

As soon as the soldiers arrived at Shen Sheng's doorstep, there were already eyeliners to report to Lin Meng.

Lin Meng was in a daze and just wanted to be angry, but he was suddenly awakened by the content of the report, he ran over barefoot and pulled up the collar of the messenger, "You read that right, in addition to the people from the Criminal Department and the people from the Qi Palace, who went to arrest Shen Sheng?" ”

The man trembled with fright, "The villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense, those people themselves shouted that King Qi was going to arrest and commit miscellaneous people, and they were dressed differently from ordinary guards, so it must be the people of King Qi!" ”

Lin Meng's eyes suddenly darkened, and he was supported by the concubine next to him in time to not fall down, and the first thing he said when he reopened his eyes was, "Quick!" Send the young master out of the city, quickly! ”

The people around him didn't dare to ask why, and hurriedly ran to Lin Yue's courtyard in response, Lin Meng slowly stabilized his figure at this time, he clenched his fists and said to himself in a panic, "Impossible, these things will not be found out until a year at the earliest, why will they be found on Shen Sheng's head now, come on!" ”

"Sir!"

"Quick, go to Shen Sheng's door again and keep an eye on it, no matter what you see, come back and report to me truthfully!" Lin Meng was still not at ease after watching the man run away, Duan Jingqi must have gotten Emperor Duan's permission to arrest Shen Sheng at night with such fanfare, otherwise there would not be such a big battle, but since he had found Shen Sheng's head, Emperor Duan was afraid that he already knew that Li Kang was wronged at this time.

If it is really as he guessed, then Li Kang will soon be acquitted, and then after the reinstatement, he will definitely take over the criminal department again, and when Shen Sheng falls into his hands, it will be difficult to open his mouth, Lin Meng was scared out of a cold sweat by himself.

He must stop these things from happening, otherwise Li Kang will definitely find out the clues of Lin Yue's release from prison, and when the time comes, he will definitely re-sentence, then his son will not want to come back again in his life, thinking of this, Lin Meng hurriedly got dressed.

"Master, where are you going, take your cloak!"

Lin Meng didn't care to listen to the words of the concubine behind him, so he hurriedly went into the study, he didn't have time to think about why Duan Jingqi suddenly caught Shen Sheng, the key person, when everything was calm, he only had one thought in his mind now - killing Li Kang, so that he would never have the opportunity to reiterate Lin Yue's case.

And tonight, while Li Kang has not yet confronted Shen Sheng, it is the last opportunity to attack him while he is still in prison.

As soon as Lin Meng arrived at the study, he called his personal guard to whisper, and then the guard led the order to climb over the wall neatly, taking advantage of the noise on the street all the way through the streets and alleys until he reached the vicinity of the prison of the Criminal Department.

It was still dark here, only the officers and soldiers on patrol walked by with torches in twos and threes, compared with the lively street, it was still dark and quiet, and after he saw all this, he immediately turned around and returned to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, and gave Lin Meng all the information he saw.

Lin Meng had been fidgeting until he heard these words, and his eyes lit up, "Okay! This is the opportunity God gave me, although Duan Jingqi investigated the case beyond my expectations, but he forgot an important point, that is, the prison of the Criminal Department is far more important than the Yamen of the Criminal Department, and he is a pampered prince who only cares about money, so naturally he doesn't know this, otherwise how could he not even notice that Yue'er has been out of prison for so long! ”

Lin Mengxin said in a low voice, "You pick a few trustworthy people and immediately return to the prison of the Criminal Department to ...... Li Kang" Lin Meng made a killing gesture as he spoke.

The guard was startled, "Master, that's the prison of the Criminal Department, how can we just rush in and kill people." ”

Lin Meng's eyes were congested, and suddenly he couldn't control so much for Lin Yue, "I will send Zhao Yuan to pick you up in the prison, you just kill people without knowing it, and then Zhao Yuan naturally has a way to whitewash all this and disguise it as Li Kang committed suicide," Lin Meng's eyes were full of fierceness, "Remember to be ruthless, you can't leave any room for survival!" ”

The guard hesitated in his heart, but nodded fiercely under Lin Meng's scorching gaze, "Yes!" ”

Lin Meng firmly believed that this matter would definitely be done according to his own ideas, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he hurriedly changed his clothes and went to Zhao Yuan's house in person.

Zhao Yuan was already at home at this time, his legs were shaking in fright, Duan Jingqi's battle this time was too big, Zhao Yuan didn't know if he didn't know, he had already turned a blind eye to Shen Sheng's blackmailing of Guo Yi, and he wanted to fall asleep before he fell asleep, but now the incident happened before dawn, because this happened in the middle of the night, and several of their attendants couldn't even figure out what was going on, so they could only watch the officers and soldiers arrest people, and listen to the noise outside.

Among them, the most frightened was Zhao Yuan, he thought that he was hugging his thick thighs and following Lin Meng's support to directly sit in the position of the secretary of the criminal department, but he was only halfway through his dream and woke up like this.

"Hurry up, prepare a carriage for me, I'm going to see Lord Lin!"

Zhao Yuan was just hurriedly preparing when he saw a small guy hurriedly running in from the back door, followed by two people with dark faces behind him, Zhao Yuan was stunned, and was so frightened that he took a few steps back and saw the other party's face clearly after the person walked in.

Zhao Yuan was taken aback, "Lord Lin! How do you ......?"

The guard beside Lin Meng suddenly drew his knife so frightened that Zhao Yuan suddenly stopped his loud voice in horror, and then shrank in a trembling ball, "What are you doing, the villain hasn't done anything to hurt you!" ”

Lin Meng looked left and right vigilantly, lowered his voice and spoke, "You have a safe place to talk here." ”

Zhao Yuan nodded immediately, "Yes!" Yes! You come with me! ”

He welcomed Lin Meng into the study, and carefully inserted the door in person, ordering everyone not to disturb him, and then knelt in front of Lin Meng with a plop, "My lord, spare your life, Shen Sheng really doesn't care about the villain's business if he is arrested." ”

Lin Meng snorted coldly, he had never doubted this, after all, Zhao Yuan and himself were grasshoppers on a rope and more greedy than himself, it was basically impossible to make Zhao Yuan sue first, Lin Meng didn't hide it and went straight to the point and said the purpose of coming to him.

Zhao Yuan was so frightened that he sat on the ground, "You said you want to kill Li Kang!" ”

Lin Meng shook off a cold gaze, which frightened Zhao Yuan even more pale.

"If you don't do it, will he let you go after Li Kang resumes his official position? Kill Guo Yi and let Yue'er go, how many heads can you chop off as a servant of the Criminal Department? ”

"But that can't be, that's the criminal department after all."

"What about the Criminal Department?" Lin Meng continued to bewitch, "Duan Jingqi is a layman, he doesn't know anything about investigating cases, and he doesn't even have more people for such a key position as the prison of the Criminal Department, and Li Kang is a plate of loose sand, you take advantage of the chaos to kill him, and this plate of sand is yours." ”

"But what if you find out?"

"If you are not discovered, then what awaits you is Jinshan Yinshan has a bright future, even if it is discovered, there is still a trace of vitality and room, but you don't do anything now, and when Li recovers, there is only one way to die," Lin Meng's eyes were cold, "If you want to live or die, you can choose yourself!" ”

Zhao Yuan's heart was pounding, the noise outside the mansion was getting louder and louder, it seemed that the people from the Criminal Department had successfully arrested Shen Sheng, Zhao Yuan trembled and gritted his teeth, "Xiaguan listens to you!" In any case, I can't put my life in the hands of Li Kang, I am the real master of the Criminal Department! ”

Lin Meng floated a grim smile, "I wish Lord Zhao an early ascension to the position of Shangshu!" ”

A moment later, Lin Meng and Zhao Yuan walked out of the back door of the mansion at the same time and went in two completely different directions.

On the other side, Lin Meng's guards and cronies had also changed into night clothes and sneaked back to the vicinity of the prison of the Criminal Department.

"Big brother, isn't it too risky for us to go in and kill people like this, it was okay to be stupid in the past, but now we have a few heads to kill the court officials."

The guards led by him also broke out in a cold sweat, gritting their teeth and staring intently at the officers and soldiers who were patrolling back and forth in front of the big prison door, "This is what the master ordered, if we can't go back, we will die, what are you doing with so much nonsense, and when they are on duty, they will rush in with me when they are on duty, and their hands and feet will be sharper!" ”
