Chapter 128: Two Clearings

Lu Xuan was silent, and was about to further interrogate Jia Dafu, but a passionate drum sounded outside the county yamen.

This is the first time Lu Xuan has received a report from someone since she took office, and she hurriedly ordered someone to be arrested and invited in.

The person who reported the case was none other than the old man who had talked to Lu Xuan before.

The old man hadn't seen an official for a long time, and at this moment, he couldn't help but kneel down in shock when he saw Lu Xuan's majestic appearance surrounded by a group of officials.

"The grass people knock to see the blue sky." The old man was so excited that his voice trembled.

Lu Xuan hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Uncle doesn't have to be polite. ”

After the old man calmed down a little, Lu Xuan asked about his intention, only to see him look at Jia Dafu who was kneeling on the side trembling in amazement: "This is the person I want to sue!" ”

Hearing this, Jia Dafu immediately retorted: "Old man, you don't spew blood here, you ......"

"Ahem!" Jia Dafu barked like a vicious dog, only to hear a chilling cough sound around him, and he hurriedly reined in his silence.

Seeing that Jia Dafu was silent, Lu Xuan motioned to the old man to continue.

"Adults don't know, this person will take most of the harvest of our villagers as his own every year, before he kept saying that he wanted to raise money to build a school for the children, but secretly put the money into his own pocket, poor those children, can't afford to read, and now he is forced by this beast to be unable to eat and clothe warm, please adults must be the master for us!"

The old man couldn't stop crying as he spoke, just from his words, it was clear that Jia Dafu had done a lot of evil deeds over the years.

Lu Xuan's words made Lu Xuan feel distressed and indignant, and then glared at someone angrily: "Jia Dafu!" Can you plead guilty? ”

Jia Dafu naturally wanted to deny it, but when he was about to speak, when he raised his eyes, he saw the man sitting there with angry eyes, and he could only nod and say nothing for the sake of the dog's life.

Lu Xuan looked at the old man at this time, and returned to his usual humble and polite appearance: "Uncle, why did you suddenly change your rhetoric and intercede for him a few days ago?" ”

Speaking of this, the old man was even more sad: "This animal deceived the children in the school to take the deed of sale to their parents to sign, we are all farmers, where can we read?" As soon as the adults left the day of the inspection, he threatened us with the deed of sale, saying that if we did not cooperate with him in his play, he would sell the children to the official family as slaves and maids! ”

The old man's words were heartbroken, Lu Xuan was simply annoyed, and then scolded Jia Dafu: "Don't even let go of the child who has nothing to do, what a femme fatale you are!" ”

At this point, the old man caught a glimpse of Gu Huanli sitting on the side, and hurriedly walked towards him, and after a moment of deliberation, he knelt again, but this time he even kowtowed his head.

"Thank you for saving the children, and give me a chance to tell the truth." The old man said that he should have no idea about the identity of the person in front of him when he heard his name.

Gu Huanli was also taken aback by the old man's actions, and was stunned for a moment before leaning over to help him up.

Lu Xuan seemed to remember something, and then introduced to the old man: "Uncle, this is what you said that day, His Royal Highness the Murderous King who saved Linglang's life in Jiangnan. ”

Hearing this, the old man's eyes suddenly widened: "You are His Royal Highness the Fierce King?" ”

Lu Xuan has "sold" him, what can he do if he doesn't admit it at this time? Gu Huanli had no choice but to nod his head, trying his best to show a kind appearance, so as not to frighten the old man.

Fortunately, he has been holding on to the old man and never let go, otherwise the old man would have knelt down again at this time.

However, although he was supported by Gu Huanli, the old man still tried his best to lean over and thank him: "The grass people have seen His Highness, thank Your Highness for saving the dog's life and helping the villagers get out of the clutches." ”

Gu Huanli didn't know why, when did he save this old man's son?

He turned his head to look at Lu Xuan blankly, but she just smiled at him and signaled that he only appreciated it, so he didn't ask any more.

turned to Lu Xuan and said: "The truth has been revealed, what does Lu County Ling plan to do with this person?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, since all of Jia Dafu's family property is ill-gotten gains, he should confiscate all of them, and it is even more difficult for him to escape the death penalty if he does no evil.

So Lu Xuan immediately ordered the seizure of all Jia Dafu's family property, and imprisoned him and beheaded him after the autumn.

Hearing this, Jia Dafu was dumbfounded: "Don't be an adult, your adult will spare my life, I can be a cow and a horse for an adult!" Jia Dafu begged hard, but Lu Xuan had made up his mind, and then waved his hand at the arrester and signaled that he would be put on death row.

As soon as the case came to an end, Gu Huanli spoke again: "Qin Xiao, take someone to send the old man and the children back to the village." ”

Qin Wei took the order, and then put everything back on track.

At this point, the big stone in Zhao Qingfeng's heart could be regarded as completely falling, and he immediately walked in front of Lu Xuan.

"Lord Lu, it was Zhao's villain's heart before, and he almost caused the adults to suffer, Zhao apologizes here, and let the adults deal with it." Zhao Qingfeng compensated Lu Xuan.

At that time, Gu Huanli was also quite unhappy in his heart, if he went later that day, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

However, Lu Xuan himself didn't care, but was grateful to Zhao Qingfeng.

"Brother Zhao is serious, Brother Zhao helped Lu solve the case, and when Qingpei was sincere, how could Lu blame Brother Zhao?" Lu Xuan is still generous.

Zhao Qingfeng raised his head at this time: "Since the adults don't care about the past suspicions, Zhao and the adults are considered to be two clear, and the past is not mentioned again, and they will still be friends when they meet in the future." ”

Zhao Qingfeng's words were quite parting, which made Lu Xuan can't help but think of what he said before, and then looked at the two of them: "Have you really decided to leave here?" ”

Qing Pei nodded: "Yes, I heard that the mansion in the main city was specially prepared for me by the Xianggong, and I can't waste his hard work in the past two years." ”

It seems that Zhao Qingfeng has explained everything to Qing Pei one by one, so Lu Xuan is relieved.

After taking a deep breath, she asked again, "When will you leave, I'll see you off." ”

Zhao Qingfeng shook his head: "No need, the carriage is outside the door, and we have to leave." ”

"So suddenly?" To be honest, Lu Xuan was really reluctant to let go of these two friends.

But there is no banquet in the world, even if the husband and wife don't leave today, Lu Xuan will inevitably return to Shengjing in the future.

Thinking of this, he simply looked away, and Lu Xuan showed a bright smile: "Have a good trip, see you soon." ”

The two then bid farewell to Lu Xuan.

After sending away the "others", Gu Huanli walked towards Lu Xuan, but his mouth was not a sentimental word to comfort her.

"Why did Fang just reveal the identity of this king in front of that old peasant?" Look at this tone, isn't it the autumn queen who is settling accounts?

Lu Xuan's heart suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly turned around: "Your Highness used to relieve the plague in Jiangnan and save the people of Jiangnan from fire and water, and the old man's son was one of them, and I just wanted him to meet his benefactor." ”

Lu Xuan said this on his lips, but he didn't think like this in his heart.

There are two reasons why she revealed Gu Huanli's identity-

First, when the Jiangnan plague was lifted, she actually knew that she did not take credit, so it was not good for the old man to regard her as a life-saving benefactor, and she deserved it.

Second, everyone in the world respects Gu Huanli, the fierce king, and even spreads him as a big devil who kills people without blinking, and Lu Xuan's trip is just to help him correct his name.

But Lu Xuan didn't tell Gu Huanli about his good intentions, and he just prevaricated in front of him.

However, Gu Huanli understood what the old man said, so he didn't bother with Lu Xuan anymore, and only reminded her of the sentence "Don't take it as an example."

Lu Xuan nodded in agreement, but in a blink of an eye, he changed his embarrassed expression.

"Say whatever you want." Gu Huanli saw what Lu Xuan was thinking, and immediately agreed to her to speak, and she leaned down towards him.

Xu hadn't seen Lu Xuan salute himself for too long, and Gu Huanli was still a little difficult to adapt to for a while.

"The lower official has a reluctant request." Lu Xuan said so, and only when he saw Gu Huanli nodding did he dare to speak.

"The lower officials know that the government should hand over the stolen money to the national treasury, but in the final analysis, those are all owned by the villagers, and the lower officials think that the goods should be returned to the original owners." Lu Xuan put forward the idea of giving all the property of Jia Dafu's family to the villagers here.

After hesitating for a while, seeing that she was dedicated to the people, Gu Huanli did not refuse, and then agreed: "You are the county commander, you can call the shots, you don't have to ask the king." ”

"But Your Majesty's side ......" This is what Lu Xuan is worried about, if her move is used by someone with a heart, I am afraid that she will be framed as embezzlement or embezzlement of state funds.

Gu Huanli did this for her: "Don't worry, with this king here, no one in the court dares to say anything." ”

Lu Xuan nodded, and then ordered the sale of Jia Dafu's property.

The next day, Lu Xuan returned to the village full of joy and gathered all the people.

"Folks, this is the exchange of the harvest that Jia Dafu has scavenged from you over the years, plus his personal ownership, and now all of it is returned to you, and the right should be compensation."

When Lu Xuan's voice fell, the villagers were stunned, one by one, you look at me, I look at you.

Since handing over the crops to corrupt officials, they never thought that they would be able to recover them one day, and now Lu Xuan not only eradicated the evil criminals for them, but returned all the losses they had lost over the years.

After a long time, the villagers reacted and quickly knelt down on the spot: "Thank you Lord Lu, thank you Lord Lu!" ”

"Everyone, please get up quickly, these are just Lu's affairs." Lu Xuan consciously frustrated, but he couldn't resist the sincerity of the villagers, so he could only let them kneel down and be grateful.

After this incident, Lu Xuan became famous in Yuanshan County, and everyone praised him, and the county government gradually regained the trust of the people.

It's just that although such a major decision was made by Gu Huanli, he did not appear with Lu Xuan that day.

It was only at this time that he summoned Qin Xiao: "Go back to the palace to get a thousand taels and order someone to send it to the household." ”

The household department was in charge of the state treasury, and all the money collected belonged to the imperial court.

Qin Xiao couldn't help but be surprised: "Your Highness, this is ......"

Gu Huanli didn't explain, but continued to instruct himself: "There is no need to mention this king when you send it, just say that it is the stolen money seized by the county order of Yuanshan County." ”
