Chapter 199, Severed Hand

"My lord, I was wrong, I should not have lived up to your trust, I should not have lived up to my brother's expectations, the matter has come to this, I am willing to be punished. Lu Changming finally knelt down on his knees and bowed his head and said.

"Sister, brother-in-law?" Xu Ao thought that his brother-in-law's status was not low, and he should be able to protect himself even in front of the Heavenly Master, but he didn't expect his brother-in-law to kneel down and admit punishment soon.

"Do you dare to call your brother-in-law?" Lin Zheng turned his head and glanced at Xu Ao: "Just on the road, do you know that your carriage almost killed a little girl?"

"Yes. Xu Ao nodded hurriedly.

"Then why don't you stop?" Lin Zheng continued to ask.

"That little girl, isn't the little girl okay?" Xu Ao said stunned.

"Come here. Lin Zheng beckoned to Xu Ao.

Xu Ao didn't know why, so he knelt down and stepped forward.

Lin Zheng saw Xu Ao approaching, raised his hand and slapped Xu Aoduo's face fiercely, this palm was heavy, and Xu Ao flew out, and two blood-stained teeth fell to the ground.

"That's because I'm here!" Lin Zheng said angrily, "If I hadn't been there, the little girl would have died! ”

"What?" Lu Changming was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to stare at Xu Ao, he didn't know why Lin Zheng was so angry, but now it seems that Xu Ao stabbed the big basket.

"What the hell is going on, rabbit cub, you tell me clearly!" Lu Changming grabbed Xu Ao, who had fallen to his side, and scolded angrily despite his indistinct cry of pain.

"I, when I heard my brother-in-law's call, I naturally hurried over, and the carriage drove faster on the road, almost hitting a little girl. Xu Ao said reluctantly with a red and swollen face.

"Almost bumped into?" Lu Changming could already imagine that scene, not to mention Lin Zheng, even his eyes were red with anger: "It's okay to rely on your sister to spoil and play prestige on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing that loses your conscience, you wolf-hearted thing!"

"Lu Changming. Lin Zheng shouted.

"The subordinates are here!" Lu Changming immediately turned his head to look at Lin Zheng.

"Although this is also your housework, no matter how you deal with it, I have to give an explanation, and you can take the blame and abdicate after the matter is done. Lin Zhengyu looked at Xu Ao on the ground angrily: "Scum." ”

"My subordinates will definitely give you an explanation!" Lu Changming nodded immediately: "My subordinates promise that you will never see Xu Ao again after today." ”

"What, brother-in-law, are you going to kill me?" Xu Ao looked at Lu Changming in shock when he heard this: "How can you explain to my sister." ”

Lu Changming looked at Lin Zheng with some embarrassment, turned his head and scolded angrily: "I need to explain to your sister? Shut up!"

"No, no, I don't want to die, brother-in-law, you can't kill me. Xu Ao's eyes widened as the size of a cow, and his mouth began to babble.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Changming immediately asked worriedly when he saw this.

"You can't kill me!" Xu Ao stood up abruptly, roared with a voice that shattered his vocal cords, and then rushed towards Lin Zheng brazenly.

Seeing this, Li Yu flashed forward and kicked out hard.

Xu Aoden flew upside down and fell to the ground without a sound.

"Your good relative!" Lin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the remaining anger did not subside and added new fire, although Xu Ao committed the crime first, he really didn't really hurt anyone, and he couldn't do too much, his original intention was to ask Lu Changming to take people back to discipline and discipline, and then bring his brother Lu Menghua to intercede with him, but he didn't expect that Xu Ao not only didn't understand the meaning, but instead shot at himself.

"My lord, he can't afford to be frightened, this is a loss of heart and crazy, you have a lot, tomorrow when you return to Songzi City, I will take him and my brother to give you the guilt!" Lu Changming was completely panicked this time, originally Xu Ao was just young and did bad things, and did not cause any serious consequences, his brother is an important minister in the cabinet, it can be said that everyone is a family when the door is closed, it is nothing more than a big thing to turn into a small matter, but now Xu Ao actually made a move against Lin Zheng!

secretly scolded Xu Ao in his heart for being a complete idiot, his brain was soaked in his sister's sugar jar, but now Lu Changming could only stare dryly, looking at Lin Zheng's uncertain face, and secretly worried.

"Li Yu. Lin Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Your Excellency. Li Yu leaned down.

"According to the Cabinet Code, what is the crime of the people in the Cabinet who take the initiative to attack the Heavenly Master?"

"According to the Cabinet Code, those who take the initiative to attack the Heavenly Master in the Cabinet are the same as the punishment of the Pavilion, and the crime should be beheaded!" Li Yu said without hesitation.

"Lu Changming, you say, am I a Heavenly Master or not?" Lin Zheng asked coldly, perhaps the two of them were also complementary, and the evil aura between his eyebrows was very similar to Wang Zixuan.

"Your Excellency will always be a Heavenly Master in the hearts of your subordinates, and it will not change!" Lu Changming saw that Lin Zheng had already brought out the code, so he planned to give up Xu Ao completely, he was also benevolent and righteous, and he could only blame Xu Ao, this kid was too capable of death!

"Lu Changming, your brother Lu Menghua is an important minister in the cabinet, and the Lu family has followed the Heavenly Master Pavilion for three generations, none of them have rebelled, today I am extrajudicial and give you a chance, which can be regarded as worthy of the spirit of Old Man Lu in the sky. Lin Zheng said, took out the soft sword on Li Yu's waist and threw it to Lu Changming.

"Cut off your right hand. Lin Zheng said indifferently.

Lu Changming picked up the soft sword when he heard this, and sighed helplessly, Lin Zheng had already done his duty, first let himself take Xu Ao, and now he left Xu Ao alive: "I can only blame your sister for doting on you too much, making you unaware of the height of the sky, and making you so uncompromising!"

Lu Changming said, and a sword cut off Xu Ao's right hand from Xu Ao's wrist.

His right hand was cut off, and Xu Ao, who was originally unconscious, immediately woke up in pain, holding his bleeding arm and rolling on the ground.

"You. Lin Zheng looked at the middle-aged man who was always standing aside.

"The subordinates are here, and the Heavenly Master commands. The man immediately fell to his knees.

"Take him out, bandage him, and send him back to Steward Lu's house. Lin Zheng sorted out his anger and said lightly.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately complied.

After Xu Ao was taken away, Lu Changming seemed to have unloaded all his strength, Lin Zheng's meaning was already very obvious, and it could be seen from his sentence that he was no longer the chief steward of this place.

"Did you bring all the information of the rebel army?" Lin Zheng asked Lu Changming.

"Brought. Lu Changming nodded, took out a stack of information from his arms and handed it to Lin Zheng.

Lin Zheng glanced at Lu Changming, who was distracted, when he looked at the information, and when his anger subsided, he coughed lightly: "Go to your brother tomorrow, and let your brother arrange a good position for you, this place is too risky for you." ”

Lu Changming's eyes lit up when he heard this, Lin Zheng's meaning was too obvious, although he seemed to be incapable this time, he could be transferred to his brother's side, and his brother's hand made everything much easier, Lin Zheng could also rest assured, and when he got to his brother's side, he was still the chief manager?

"Thank you, Master Heaven, for not giving up!" Lu Changming immediately knelt down and thanked him.

"According to the intelligence, the rebel army has forces all over the three states, is there any popular support?" Lin Zheng asked Lu Changming.

"Only a small number of people support, most of them were suppressed by force, the rebel army was a mixed army, and there was even a military camp composed of beggars, how could such a team have the support of the people, it is better for us to stop the army. Lu Changming changed his distracted appearance and said with a smile.

"How much do you know about the sword formation of the rebel army?, why is there nothing written on this information?" Lin Zheng asked Lu Changming again.

Lu Changming smiled lightly when he heard this: "My lord, this rebel army's sword formation is just a rumor, no one has seen it with their own eyes, I think it's just a means for the rebel army to build momentum for themselves." ”

"Why do you think so?" Lin Zheng frowned puzzled, the rumors he heard were not like this: "I heard that the rebel army is weak in front of the royalists, and it all depends on the commander of the rebel army to fight into the royalist party, and the royalists will admit defeat and submit to the rebel army?"

"It is true that there are such rumors, but the fact is that there is a mysterious person who went to the Royalists alone, I don't know what was negotiated, and then the Royalists surrendered to this person, and then some people found many corpses covered with sword wounds outside the Royalist station, and when they returned, the news of the Sword Formation spread, and since then there have been frequent rumors of the Sword Formation, but until now no one has seen the Sword Formation with their own eyes. ”

"I see. Lin Zheng frowned: "You leave first." ”

"It's my lord. Lu Changming left the room.

"What do you think?" Lin Zheng asked Li Yu.

"Your Excellency is asking about the Sword Formation?" Li Yu asked.

"Yes, do you think that sword formation exists?" Lin Zheng asked with a nod.

"The subordinates think it shouldn't exist. Li Yu shook his head: "Most of the rebel army is weak, and it is normal for them to build momentum for themselves, and Lu Changming said that someone negotiated with the royalists, I suspect that person is a person from the Shang Dynasty, so the explanation makes all sense, the previous sword formation is just a mistake in the news, and the person we suspect is the long dead King Zhou Yu, Li Jiunian will not let King Zhou Yu live." ”

"That's right. Although Lin Zheng felt strange in his heart, he couldn't say it specifically, so he could only agree with Li Yu's statement.

"It seems that Li Jiunian will send a large army to suppress it because there are people from the Shang Dynasty hiding in it, no wonder Li Jiunian will attach so much importance to it. Lin Zheng sighed and said.

"In this way, there is no need for us to continue to stay here, knowing that the alliance between Longhu Mountain and the mall is already all. Lin Zheng sighed: "Let's go back to Songzi City." ”

"Yes. Li Yu nodded and pushed Lin Zheng out.

"Here I remember a new steward. Lin Zheng said again.

"Yes, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter when they go back. Li Yu nodded deeply and said.

Leaving the compound, Lin Zheng suddenly asked Li Yu, "Are you hungry?"

"Are you hungry?" or do you feel like you haven't had enough to go for a walk?" Li Yu finally asked with a smile.

"Just want to eat a bowl of noodles. Lin Zheng ignored Li Yu and pointed to a tavern: "That's it." ”
