Chapter 571: Secret Visit
The people were all dispersed, and only Chu Lifeng and others were left in the teahouse, and the official looked Chu Lifeng and the others up and down, and then said: "A few masters look at the eyes, those people are scattered, you are still staying here, do you want to go to prison?" ”
"In prison? What are your rights? Chu Lifeng's entourage said unhappily.
"What are the rights? Hmph, Lao Tzu has the final say in this realm, and if you catch you, why are you still not convinced? The official said proudly.
"You say catch it? Hmph, that's a big breath. You are just a few errand soldiers, and you treat us foreign merchants like this, so wouldn't it be even more arrogant to treat the people in Jiangnan? Chu Lifeng said in a deep voice.
"Hmph, who are you bullying if you powerless people don't bully? Let me tell you, our lord is my brother-in-law, my brother-in-law is the emperor here, and I am the general here. ”
Hearing this, Chu Lifeng kicked the official in the leg, and the rest of the officials just wanted to pull out their sabers when they saw this, but they saw Chu Lifeng show the gold medal he was carrying. It can be seen that this person's identity is extraordinary, if they still want to do anything, I am afraid that they will be killed on the spot.
"Who are you? How dare you pretend to be a royal prince? The official who was kicked and knelt on the ground was not convinced.
He knew very well that not long ago, he had just pushed that Feng Feiyu out as a substitute for the dead ghost, and now the person with the emperor's gold medal had arrived, could it be that the emperor suspected that Feng Feiyu did it, so he sent someone to investigate? If so, then they have to be careful, either kill these people or buy them off.
"You are not qualified to ask who this official is, but today, this official will teach you a good lesson on behalf of the people." After finishing speaking, Chu Lifeng flew up and kicked the official in the chest heavily, and then a mouthful of blood spat out from the official's mouth.
Seeing that the official was injured, the onlookers applauded one after another, which shows how hateful and arrogant these officials are on weekdays. Immediately, the rest of the people who followed the official were also injured by Chu Lifeng's entourage, and finally left them together. Those officials who were beaten still have a bit of their usual arrogance, and they are silent one by one, for fear of saying a wrong word and being beaten up again.
"You...... You wait, I'll go back and tell my brother-in-law that he won't let you go. The leading official shouted.
"Hmph, tell your brother-in-law? You just tell your uncle, and the official is not afraid of him. After finishing speaking, Chu Lifeng kicked the official in the face again, and the guy fainted instantly.
"It's really noisy, and the noise makes the official's brain hurt. A few of you have thrown all these bullying guys at the door of the Governor's Mansion, and the official wants to see what he will do. ”
"Yes, sir." Several of his followers were ordered to leave. Chu Lifeng's entourage led the order to leave.
"My lord, the emperor originally asked us to make an unannounced visit, but now that we are doing this, wouldn't it be revealing our identity, if they find out that we are to check the granary, I'm afraid there will be trouble." Chu Lifeng's cronies said softly.
"It's okay, from tomorrow onwards, if you pretend to be me and take a few people to visit around, you can just use the excuse of visiting the people." Chu Lifeng said lightly.
"What? Let a subordinate pretend to be you? How can this work, my subordinates don't have your bearing. The cronie scratched his head.
"Liuyun, you should also have a good experience, otherwise how to assist the master in doing things, is it possible that you still want to be someone else's retinue for the rest of your life?" Chu Lifeng glanced at Liuyun and said.
This Liuyun originally followed Ling Yijun, and it was Chu Lixue who forcibly asked the Ling Shaogu Lord to come over to help him. This Liuyun is indeed very smart, and his martial arts are not bad, but his temperament is a little too introverted.
Actually, this Chu Lixue and Ling Yijun asked Liuyun to come to help Chu Lifeng, although Chu Lifeng also has a lot of powerful helpers around him, but the only person who has the ability to look is Liuyun.
Liuyun has been following Ling Yijun's side, and he has learned seven or eight points of this disguise technique, if he is not a person who understands the disguise technique, he will not be able to see it.
The next day, Liuyun changed his appearance from Chu Lifeng, and he pretended to be Chu Lifeng and walked on the street with a few entourages, and some people saw Chu Lifeng pretending to be Liuyun, and they all stepped forward to send seasonal fruits, vegetables, etc., all to thank him for teaching that damn official a lesson yesterday.
It's just that the official is the younger brother of the most favored concubine of the Chief Executive, otherwise, how dare he run rampant here?
But who is this uncle? Don't beat the brother-in-law of the chief secretary today, and tomorrow he will be asked back twice as much by the chief secretary.
Thinking of this, those people couldn't help but worry about Chu Lifeng again, as the saying goes, this day is far away from the emperor, and the county officials are naturally not as good as the current management.
The chief secretary has served here for many years, and his favored concubine is even more vicious character, one of her former girls once tried to climb into the bed of the chief secretary, but when she found out, she let her younger brother and all the family members in the house take turns to spoil the girl, and then she was sold into a brothel.
If a woman is not forced to do so, who wants to be a prostitute with the slightest taste of red lips. What about women. One can imagine what kind of life the servant girl will live after being sold into a brothel.
After Chu Lifeng changed his appearance, he only took an entourage to wander around some residential alleys, and happened to see the old man who said that he saw someone transfer the granary in the teahouse late at night that day, and then followed, and the old man seemed to have found that someone was following him, and he wanted to get rid of Chu Lifeng and the others in the alley.
But where is Chu Lifeng so easy to get rid of, the old man turned a corner and came to the end of an alley, Chu Lifeng appeared out, "Uncle, don't worry, this official is here to investigate the granary matter, yesterday I heard the old man in the teahouse said that he saw someone transfer the grain in the granary, what is the situation, and please tell the old man truthfully." Chu Lifeng said in a deep voice.
"This lord, don't ask me, if I say it, my family will also be implicated, you are all officials, Lord Buzheng doesn't dare to touch you, but he naturally dares to introduce me to the grass people." The old man is embarrassed.
"Uncle don't worry, this official is a messenger sent by the emperor to investigate this matter, as long as the old man tells the truth, this official will let people protect the old man and your family." Chu Lifeng said lightly.
As long as the suspicion in the old man's heart can be dispelled, it will not be difficult to investigate the affairs of the granary. The old man pondered for a moment and said lightly: "This lord, you are lying to the old man, the one who held the gold medal yesterday is your head, right?" ”
"Yes, that one is indeed our superior, the Lord is in the light, and he ordered his subordinates to investigate in the dark. Uncle can rest assured. Chu Lifeng said.
"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. That day, I went to the city to pour night incense Lao Zhangtou to the tavern to drink, and when I came back, I happened to pass by the granary, and saw that several officials with the political secretary were secretly transporting all the grain out of the granary. ”
Hearing this, Chu Lifeng frowned slightly, that's right, Feng Feiyu is not gregarious with the officials here, plus he reconciled with Chu Lishuang and lost his identity as an imperial prince, isn't he going to be ridiculed? If this was done by the Chief Minister, where did all the grain and grass that he had transferred go?
If all these grains and grass are sold by the political secretary, if the people below don't have some oil and water, I'm afraid no one will be willing to help him frame Feng Feiyu together.
The granary in Jiangnan is the main force in the granary of Beichen, if it weren't for the fact that the army on the territory of Dongyu needed grain and grass some time ago, the emperor ordered the Jiangnan political secretary to transport the grain and grass to Dongyu first, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so anxious to push the black pot on Feng Feiyu's body.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that although Feng Feiyu had already turned his face with the Chu family, Chu Lifeng was a person who had a clear distinction between public and private, and it was definitely not because he fell into the well at this time.
"Uncle, thank you very much, I will go back to report this matter to my family, don't worry, I will tell you to protect you secretly." Chu Lifeng said lightly.
Liuyun, who was dressed as Chu Lifeng, was wandering on the street, and was approached by the official who was beaten yesterday, "Stinky boy, you still dare to swagger on the street, you beat the uncle yesterday, aren't you afraid that the uncle will kill you?" ”
"Kill me? How many lives do you have? Liuyun sneered.
"Hmph, how many lives do you have? Then you can give it a try. After finishing speaking, the official asked people to surround Liuyun and a few others. Liuyun snorted coldly, this is a crowd tactic, but if you can't beat them, it's like bullying them while there are more people, and their calculation is wrong.
Before those people could rush up, Liuyun had already beaten all those people to the ground and couldn't get up. But the official still didn't forget to shout that he was the brother-in-law of the political secretary.
Chu Lifeng's entourage really couldn't look at it, and then said: "What is the brother-in-law of the political secretary, my family is the queen's brother-in-law." ”
What the? The queen's own brother? Yes, this emperor's eldest brother is much more noble than the brother-in-law of a small political secretary, but why didn't they say it yesterday, could it be that they are fake? Besides, the emperor's brother-in-law traveled, how could he take a few entourages with him, not even carriages and horses, these people must be fake, yes, they must be fake.
Hearing that the other party claimed to be the emperor's brother-in-law, those officials were also a little timid, where did they dare to fight with the emperor's relatives, and if they fought with the emperor's relatives, there would only be one death.
"Phew, what are you, you dare to pretend to be the queen's own brother, and you don't see if the head on your neck is still there. Pretending to be a prince is a capital offense. ”
