Chapter 24: Effort
"Oh! And the beautiful scenery on the left and right! Lord Lu raised his eyebrows lightly, looked at Master Bai, slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a long voice.
Old Man Bai's waist bent even more, and he raised his eyes slightly to look at Lord Lu and said flatteringly, "Yes!" The food is good, the wine is good, and the beautiful scenery is a must, and the keeper of Lord Lu lingers, and the aftertaste is endless. ”
Lord Lu's voice could not be heard to be happy or angry, but to those who knew him well, it was a sign of great anger.
Lord Lu's swarthy pupils turned, looked at Bai Qingshan with a smile on his face, and said, "Except for that white officer, it is the responsibility of this government to re-investigate this case. The back of his hand patted Bai Qingshan's shoulder and said, "It's hard to explain if you don't check!" ”
Master Bai's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Understand, understand, the little one will definitely fully cooperate with Lord Lu." ”
Lord Lu looked at Master Bai with great satisfaction and smiled, "This wine and food are free, this mansion has just arrived, and this Shangya time is drunk, not good, very bad." ”
"Lord Lu leads by example, and the city is very fortunate." Master Bai smiled and complimented.
Lord Lu's dark eyes looked at him, "Let's go, go home!" ”
"Yes!" Wu Dakui and the servants bowed in response.
The father and son of the Bai family sent the prefect Lord Lu and them out of the Bai family respectfully with a smile on their faces.
The father and son of the Bai family watched Lord Lu turn over and get on the horse, followed by the messenger, and gradually moved away in the sound of the horse's hooves.
"I'm a mother, and I'm finally gone." Second Young Master Bai let out a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and shook off the dense sweat on his forehead, "I'm scared to death, I didn't expect this new prefect to be so serious." ”
"There's nothing to fuss about about his duties." Master Bai took a deep breath and said, his heart was pounding, as if he was about to jump out, and he was really scared.
"Dad, the prefect is so conscientious and responsible, and he refuses our good intentions, what should we do?" Second Young Master Bai looked at him worriedly and said, "Don't you need to make the silver dotted!" ”
Hearing this, Master Bai hesitated for a moment and waved his hand and said, "Not now, he hasn't found anything wrong at present, those are telling the truth, and this kind of thing is not a watch, just get up at the right time!" After thinking about it, he said, "We have made the silver, but it has become a manifestation of the weakness of the heart." Looking at him and shaking, he said, "Obedient and listen, didn't you hear what he called me?" Outside the white staff, do the white staff understand? "Happy tooth flowers are all out," Lord Lu is the duty, not for us. ”
Second Young Master Bai heard this, and his eyes burst with joy, just don't do it, and secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Let's go, let's go into the house, our father and son are carefully interpreting this case to see if there is anything missing?" Old Man Bai clenched his fists, and said with a cold gaze flashing in his eyes.
"Yes!" Second Young Master Bai bowed his hand and saluted.
Old Man Bai turned around and walked towards the gate, his feet were soft, and the person was planted forward.
"Dad, be careful." Second Young Master Bai hugged Master Bai quickly, "It's dangerous, it's dangerous." Helping Master Bai said, "I'll help you go to the study!" ”
"The damn case has already been decided, and there are complicated things." Second Young Master Bai scolded as he walked, "It's scary." Then he said, "Dad, when will that slut be beheaded!" ”
"Autumn Queen." Old Man Bai's expression eased a lot.
"On the way to the court, I called the family and threw her rotten eggs." Second Young Master Bai snorted coldly.
"Good!" Hearing this, Master Bai nodded again and again, "It's good to throw rotten eggs and smash her to death!" ”

Lord Lu turned over and got on the horse, and his face was pulled down, his face was gloomy, how could they dare to bribe so blatantly.
This gloomy face has not changed until the lower office, after carefully combing through the case file.
Lord Lu stood outside the moon gate heading to the back office, stretched out his hand to rub his face, and stepped into the house with a smiling face.
After dinner, the baby girl went back to her courtyard to embroider.
Lord Lu and his wife sat on a stone bench under the grapevines in the courtyard to cool off.
Mrs. Lu fanned him, "You went to the Bai family here, so frustrated!" ”
"As we thought, we didn't get anything." Lord Lu gritted his teeth with a dark face and said, "I'm angry that grandma actually openly offered bribes. ”
Lord Lu said angrily, "One table is good food, plus two beautiful views." Looking at Lao Tzu, I didn't hear the meaning outside the line. ”
"It's a beautiful view!" Mrs. Lu gently shook the fan, looked at him with a smile and said, "Is that what Meijing is called?" ”
"Uh......" Lord Lu said as he looked at her with his mouth open, "I didn't go, how could I go?" Officials are not allowed to engage in prostitution, how could I make such a mistake. ”
Mrs. Lu looked at him with a smile and said, "Do you say that this Bai family will honor you...... a charming voice.
"Naughty!" Lord Lu looked at her with a smile and said, "I have appeased the Bai family, and it is my duty to retry this case." If you want to be filial, the case will be closed, and they will only give it when they get a satisfactory answer! Jian Mei looked at her lightly and teased, "Why does Madame want to be filial!" ”
"Go!" Mrs. Lu glanced at her with silky eyes and said, "With this kind of filial piety, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night." Seriously, he said, "This Bai family probably can't find anything, do you still want to find out?" ”
"Of course, the duty is to find out. Who knows if there are any clues! Lord Lu retracted the smile on his face and said with a straight face, "I don't believe that the case can be done without leakage." ”
"What is the Bai family like? I heard that it occupies a street. Mrs. Lu looked at him curiously and said.
"It's huge." Lord Lu nodded and said, "Wait a minute, I'll bring the layout plan drawn by the Bai family's three rooms." He stood up and said, "Wait, I'll get it." ”
In Mrs. Lu's stunned eyes, she went to the front office.
Lord Lu quickly walked over with the layout plan and spread it on the stone table, "You see this is the layout plan of the Bai family's three rooms." ”
"These two small courtyards don't look big!" Mrs. Lu looked at the layout plan without blinking.
"Yes! As wide and sparse as the houses in the north, it is clear at a glance. Lord Lu looked at her with dark eyes and sat down.
"You actually drew the layout?" Mrs. Lu looked at him with some curiosity and said, "It's a good painting." ”
"Meaningless! We don't have to worry about the marching pictures of this battle, let alone the layout of this courtyard. Lord Lu looked at her with a sigh and said, "It's so clear and intuitive, I measured the three rooms of the Bai family with the number of steps, and I can't figure it out more and more." "There is so much commotion in the upper room, and the servants are sleeping unconsciously, which is very wrong." ”
"How did they do it, or what means did they use?" Mrs. Lu looked at him with burning eyes and said, "Most of these slaves are death deeds. Shaking his head slightly, he said, "But there are always fish that slip through the net, and it is impossible for the testimony to be so consistent." ”
"So I have to continue to judge the Bai family." Lord Lu's index finger pointed to the layout map.
