250 - Moral high ground

The downfall of Dong Yuhe came suddenly.

In the morning, there were customers who bought things from the Yuhe Chamber of Commerce, and in the afternoon, the Yuhe Chamber of Commerce was seized.

So much so that many people didn't even understand what was going on.

But when the seal of the official government was pasted on the gate of the Yuhe Chamber of Commerce, at this moment, everyone understood that the feelings were officially started.

But it shouldn't be, doesn't it mean that Dong Yuhe, the shopkeeper of the Yuhe Chamber of Commerce, has close contacts with many big officials in the imperial court, how can he say that he will be sealed?

The answer, at dawn the next day, was finally revealed.

A notice flew out of the imperial city, and the content on it was Dong Yuhe, the big treasurer of the Yuhe Chamber of Commerce, who had bribed 10 million taels of silver to court officials, especially Lu Yi, the former head of the household department, and used his power to purchase private land.

It was also learned through someone that during Dong Yuhe's business trip, he killed three people due to a conflict of interest, which was a serious crime and was intolerable to heaven and earth.

In this way, it is equivalent to saying that Dong Yuhe was directly sentenced to death, and the gloomy prison is already imprisoning this big businessman who was once a powerful businessman in Daxing City.

"Brother Cheng."

Sitting in the hall of the Cheng family, Feng Jun was restless, he had already drunk four or five cups of tea with such a stick of incense, and even swallowed the ginger slices used for flavoring in the tea without paying attention to swallowing them into his stomach.

It was easy to wait for Cheng Degao to come, Feng Jun hurriedly stood up, put down the teacup, got up and hugged his fist.

Cheng Degao walked briskly, and the expression on his face was a little unsightly.

"Brother Feng, I've kept you waiting."

Feng Jun waved his hand and sighed: "Let's not talk about this Brother Cheng, Dong Yuhe has been arrested, what should we do?" โ€

Cheng Degao snorted: "What should I do?" Waiting, of course. โ€

"What if Dong Yuhe confesses the two of us?"

"There's no way, he, Dong Yuhe, is imprisoned in the prison, and Zhao Ningbing's little lady even let Camellia, one of the leaders of the secret guard, guard it, just ask the world, except for the ten people on the list that day, who can kill Dong Yuhe under her nose?" Cheng Degao asked rhetorically.

Feng Jun was speechless.

Cheng Degao took a deep breath and said, "Brother Feng, it's like this, let's just wait and see, wait and see, and wait and see." โ€

"I'm afraid that what I'm waiting for is the news that I was imprisoned and killed."

"Then we'll have to gamble."

"Bet?" As soon as he heard this word, Feng Jun couldn't help but shiver.

Cheng Degao nodded and looked outside: "Brother Feng, do you know what I'm thinking now?" โ€

Feng Jun looked at Cheng Degao puzzled: "What do you think?" โ€

"I'm thinking about someone."

"People? Who? โ€

Cheng Degao took a deep breath: "Lu Yiping." โ€

When he said the name Lu Yiping, Feng Jun was a little uncomfortable and said, "Good and dignified, what are you doing with him." โ€

Cheng Degao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This time Dong Yuhe fell off the horse, nine times out of ten it is related to Lu Yiping, don't forget, in his hands, there is evidence of Dong Yuhe's bribery." At the beginning, we were afraid that the matter would be revealed, so we deliberately sent someone to kill his father and son, but unfortunately, we didn't succeed, but it made Lu Yiping completely dead and stood on the opposite side of us. โ€

When Feng Jun heard this, he began to mumble in a low voice: "So, I didn't agree to kill Brother Lu from the beginning." โ€

Cheng Degao was simply speechless for Feng Jun, when he said that he was going to kill Lu Yiping, he was the happiest you called, but now that something happened, he began to shake the pot again.

"It's too late to say so much, if it's okay this time, it's okay, if something happens, no matter how much it costs, I want the entire Lu family to be buried together." Cheng Degao gritted his teeth.

Feng Jun looked at Cheng Degao instead: "Do you know where Lu Yiping is?" โ€

Cheng Degao shook his head: "I don't know, but if you don't ask, you'll never know." โ€

Feng Jun sighed again.

Under the moon, on the gate tower of Daxing City, there was a man in his thirties, wearing a purple official mansion, with an official hat in his hand, and a pot of wine in his hand, tasting it slowly.

When the soldiers guarding the city gate saw it, they were far away and did not dare to step forward.

Rustling.

Footsteps sounded, and a man slowly came up from the side steps.

is also in his thirties, and he is also dressed in purple.

The difference is that the Puzi on the chest of the two is a painting of a crane and a unicorn.

Walking to the edge of the city gate building, the man looked at the purple-clothed nobleman who was sitting, pursed his lips and said, "Tianxing, are you here to drink by yourself again?" โ€

The man sitting opened his eyes, looked back at the person, and smiled: "Gongyou, you are here too, come, sit." โ€

Listening to the conversation between the two, it is not difficult to guess the identities of the two.

That's right, they are the two marquis of civil and military affairs in the current dynasty, Li Tianxing and Lu Gongyou.

One of the two is the imperial historian, and the other is the secretary of the military department.

Due to the special status of the two people, they are specially used as a first-class official position to receive the second-grade position.

These two people can be said to be the pillars of Sui Yang in the future, the two of them are not only close friends, but also proud disciples of the Eight Sages King.

Lu Invincible, known as the land dragon, in recent years, can be said to have supported the Suiyang River, with him, no one dares to invade Suiyang.

Isn't the Xirong tribe, which has always been proud of its death in battle, just because it was beaten by Lu Wuving, and did not dare to go east for many years?

Compared with Lu Gongyou, Li Tianxing is a little bad.

In the early years in the army, he assisted the Eight Sages King to break countless enemies, and later transferred to the capital because of his merits.

Don't look at Li Tianxing, who is usually kind and kind, but once he is the enemy, he seems to be a different person, ruthless and vicious, and does all kinds of evil.

When the emperor was in power, the people were miserable, and the literati wrote complaining articles to protest.

After the first emperor found out, he handed over the matter to Li Tianxing to deal with, and in a month, three thousand scholars fell together.

Stepping on the blood, Li Tianxing handed over to the emperor.

Because of this incident, anyone who is a scholar and enters the temple is not counted, who doesn't itch his teeth for hatred in the sky?

There is even a saying that Litianxing and Prairie Annuer want to mention it on the same footing, and it is even more than that.

After all, no matter how ferocious Annuer is, he has never killed scholars on a large scale, how can it be like you who have traveled all over the world, and you are a scholar, but you have such a ruthless hand on your own people.

Of course, this may also be because there is no relationship between scholars on the grassland, so Annuer's reputation will not be so bad.

"What are you thinking?"

Lu Gongyou sat down next to Li Tianxing on his knees and asked.

Li Tianxing turned his head when he heard this, smiled and shook his head: "I didn't think about anything, I was just bored and in a daze." โ€

knew in his heart that Li Tianxing was lying, and Lu Gongyou didn't break it.

With Li Tianxing's friendship over the years, Lu Gongyou knew that as long as Li Tianxing felt uncomfortable, he would always come to this city gate tower by himself and pour himself a drink.

"Gong You, that girl in my family is scolding me today."

After being silent for a while, Li Tianxing suddenly spoke.

Lu Gongyou was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Rong'er scolded you, what did she say about you?" โ€

Li Tianxing sighed: "That girl said that I am ruthless, and I am not worthy of being a father or a minister." โ€

"Why?"

"What can it be, that girl fell in love with a scholar, and said that she wanted me to see it, you also know Gongyou, I'm a person, as long as the family is good, everything is fine, but when Rong'er brought him home, guess what the scholar said?" Li Tianxing asked.

Lu Gongyou shook his head.

Li Tianxing laughed, and his tone was quite helpless: "That is a scholar who is almost thirty years old, and he actually pointed at my nose and scolded the butcher, giving me a good scolding, what is difficult to hear." I know, this is what I deserve, but I didn't say anything, that kid turned around and left, and didn't even look at Rong'er, I was surprised, didn't Rong'er say that the kid liked her very much? It's a shame that I've endured it for so long. โ€

Lu Gongyou said with a smile: "This is probably to scold you from the moral high ground." โ€

"What commanding heights?"

"Oh, nothing, I also hear that word from others." Lu Gongyou said busily.

Li Tianxing thought for a while: "I guess, it was that Wang Xiaolai who told you." โ€

Lu Gongyou shrugged his shoulders: "You're still smart." โ€

Li Tianxing said with a sad face: "What's the use of being smart, even my own daughter looks down on me, alas, what do you say about this, or are you so respectful, so far alone, although the girl of Narcissus is an adopted daughter, she is also obedient." โ€
