Chapter 161: Darkness Behind

The young scholar Lu Fa said to Buchen: "Some of the grass people want the Nine Emperor Princes to understand!"

Buchen saw that Lufa was extraordinary, and his conversation was also elegant, and he felt that he was a shapeable talent.

Buchen turned around and said, "Now I have other important things to deal with, if you really have anything to say to me, just wait here, don't go anywhere." After saying that, Buchen left.

Lufa remained on his knees, motionless.

Buchen hurriedly returned to the wine table, picked up the wine glass and said, "Big brother, second brother, little brother is late, and he is willing to punish himself with a glass." After speaking, Buchen finished drinking the wine in his hand.

Li Zimu asked, "Third brother, what happened to you when you went out for so long?"

Buchen waved his hand and said, "A young scholar, if you have to tell me something, it's nothing more than asking an official to do it." I ignored him and left him on his knees, and if he was sincere, I could hear what he had to say. ”

After hearing this, Jing Chuan felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Third brother, what if he has something very urgent? Aren't you messing around? Hurry back and see what happened." ”

Hearing what the eldest brother said, Buchen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "The eldest brother taught me a lesson, I'll go out and take a look." ”

One thing descends another, Buchen hurriedly went out to take a look, and saw that Lufa was still kneeling on the ground, so he asked: "I'm pressed for time, if you have anything to say, just make a long story short!"

Lufa kowtowed and said, "The grass people thank the Nine Emperor Princes for their grace. ”

"Don't say polite words, let's get started!"

Lufa straightened his sleeves, and then said, "Does the Nine Emperor Princes really know about Qili Town?"

Buchen shook his head and said, "Qili Town is a model town, what's wrong?"

"Does the Nine Emperors know the little-known darkness behind this?" said Lufa.

Hearing this, Bu Chen was a little puzzled, and he hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Lu Fa said: "Nine Emperor Princes, you look at the appearance of Qili Town, but how do you know what kind of hardship the people are suffering? ”

Hearing this, Buchen felt shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "How can there be such a thing?"

"The Nine Emperor Princes are calm for a while, please allow the grass people to finish first. ”

Buchen calmed down and said, "Then you can talk about it first!"

Taishou Liu Xiang was not satisfied with the status quo, and felt that the people's money was only handed over to the state, and if he was not given money, he would not be happy! So he added a stipulation that he boasted that he was a local parent official, and that the people's money should be honored to him, so on the basis of increasing taxes, he also allocated a part of the money to give to him. ”

Hearing this, Buchen was furious and said, "Okay, you Liu Xiang, even this prince doesn't dare to do this!"

But Buchen didn't blindly listen to Lufa's words, Buchen asked: "Lufa, since you said so, then what evidence do you have to prove it?"

Lu Fa said with a confident face: "If the Nine Emperor Princes don't believe it, you can go to the house and loot his property, and see if he can get so much money if he is a Taishou!"

After listening to this, Buchen felt that it made a lot of sense, so he said: "Okay, I'll follow what you said, I'll leave this matter to you to do, if you can't find out something, then what?"

Lufa knelt on the ground and said, "If the grass people can't find anything, the grass people are willing to add their heads to His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes!"

Buchen saw Lufa's confident look, and he admired it very much, and said, "Okay, I'll do what you want, go and check." If there is anything needed, squeak although. ”

"The grass people don't have any other needs, they only need 10 people. ”

Jing Chuan and Li Zimu saw that Buchen hadn't come out for so long, and nothing had happened, so they hurriedly came out to take a look.

Jing Chuan and Li Zimu happened to see such a dramatic scene, Li Zimu said: "I think what the scholar said is true, this Taishou Liu Xiang seems to be too much." ”

Buchen saw the two of them coming out, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, second brother, what are you doing here, why did you come out?"

Jing Chuan said: "It's tiring to drink this wine all the time, so it's better to go shopping and relax." ”

Li Zimu heard what Jing Chuan meant, and hurriedly said: "I think what the eldest brother said is right, otherwise let's go and investigate this matter together!"

Buchen turned around, glanced at Lu Fa twice, and said, "Since my eldest brother and second brother have said so, then we will go and give you a shock!"

Lufa hurriedly kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you to the Nine Emperor Princes!"

"You should thank you, but not me, but my two brothers!"

Lufa is a smart person, from the way Jing Chuan and Li Zimu dress, he knows that they are not from the royal family, but they are the elder brothers of the Nine Emperor Princes. After thinking for a moment, Lu Fa said, "Thank you to the Nine Emperor Princes and their two elder brothers!"

Buchen was very satisfied with what he heard, so he said: "Lead the way ahead, go directly to Liu Xiang's house, I want to see how many treasures he has hidden." ”

Lufa hurriedly led the way in front, and Buchen and the three of them followed.

Lufa thought all of this too simply, or he thought too stupidly about Liu Xiang.

How could such a smart person as Liu Xiang put his wealth on the bright side and give people a handle?

Lufa searched for a long time, but found nothing, and found a few calligraphy and paintings and some silver taels, although it exceeded Liu Xiang's Yulu, but it was not as much as Lufa said!

Lufa began to get nervous, and he said to himself, "No, how can it be so little?"

Buchen looked at Lufa with a look of disbelief, and said, "Lufa, you have made a military order in front of me, you have to be careful of your head!"

Lufa hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "The Nine Emperor Princes are angry, please give the grass people some more time, if the grass people can't find out, then the grass people are willing to die." ”

Things have become very difficult to do, after all, Taishou Liu Xiang is dead, and dead people will not speak. And finding something is a simple thing for me, but it's hard to say.

Buchen had no choice, and said expressionlessly: "It's too late today, my brother and I will go back first, if you can't find anything tomorrow morning, then your head can only move!"

After hearing this, Lufa quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed vigorously, and then said, "The grass people thank the Nine Emperor Princes for their kindness!"

Buchen ran to Jingchuan and Li Zimu's side and said, "Big brother, second brother, I've been too busy in the past two days, and I haven't had a good rest, let's go back and rest quickly!"

Li Zimu was a little worried about this scholar, but he also understood that he chose it himself, and no one else was to blame.

After Li Zimu glanced back, he also left with Jing Chuan and Bu Chen.

Lufa searched again for half the night, but found nothing.

The soldiers who searched with Lufa were also physically and mentally exhausted and yawned all the time.

When Lufa saw this, he couldn't bear it, so he said, "You guys should go back and rest, I'll just come alone." ”

It's none of your business, hang high. Although the soldiers wanted to help Lu Fa, they were also afraid of getting into trouble, and one of the representatives said: "Brother Lu, we also have wives and children, so we can't afford to spend it with you, so we still left!"

Lufa hurriedly said: "I understand all this, you should go back quickly, the sky is almost dawn, and I will bear all the consequences!"

The soldiers left one after another, for fear of getting themselves killed.

Lufa gave up, and he sat down on the ground, because he had searched all over the house and outside the house, but there was no money hidden by Liu Xiang.

Lufa lay on the ground, swaying in the candlelight, looked at the roof, and said: "Liu Xiang, Liu Xiang, you plagued the people of Qili Town when you were alive, and you will not be happy with me after you die!"

Slowly, the day dawned, and Lufa prepared for his own death.

Although Buchen usually hangs his son, he is a very trustworthy and punctual person, and when he says it is when. Not long after dawn, Buchen took people to Liu Xiang's house and saw the road law paralyzed on the ground.

Buchen asked, "Have you found the property you mentioned?"

When Lufa heard that Buchen was coming, he quickly knelt on the ground and said, "The grass people are incompetent and willing to die!"

Buchen secretly admired this scholar in his heart, and he said: "Okay, since you have this kind of awareness, then prepare to die!"

Lufa slapped himself on the cheek to sober himself up.

Scholars have their own temperament, and Lufa holds his head high, ready to meet his own death.

Sunlight shone into the room and sprinkled on Lufa's face.

Lufa turned, and took one last look at the house that had sent him to his dead end.

It was this turn that saved Lufa's life, and Lufa suddenly found that the pillar in front of him was faintly emitting golden light.

Lufa hurriedly rushed to one of the guards, saw the knife at the guard's waist, and quickly pulled it out.

This frightened all the guards, and everyone drew their swords and said, "What are you going to do?

Now Lufa, as excited as if he had discovered a new world, clenched the knife in his hand, rushed towards the pillar, and then slashed at the pillar.

Everyone was stunned by Lufa's actions, but he was soon controlled by the guards.

Lufa laughed out loud and hurriedly said, "Back to the Nine Emperor Princes, the grass people have been found!"

Buchen waved his hand and motioned for the guards to leave.

Buchen asked, "You found what you said, but I didn't see anything?"

Lu Fa hurriedly ran to the side of the pillar, and then said, "Nine Emperor Princes, please see, Liu Xiang has exchanged all his property for gold and hid it in this pillar!"

Buchen walked to the side of the pillar and looked carefully, it was indeed gold with golden light.

Buchen took a few steps back, then ordered the guards to remove the wood from the outside of the pillar.

The pillar revealed its original face, and everyone was stunned, this pillar was completely made of gold!

Seeing this, Buchen became even more angry, and said: "Even the Jinluan Palace in the palace does not use gold as a pillar, this Liu Xiang really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall!"

The guards quickly ripped off the remaining three pillars, and they were all full of gold!

Lufa was also relieved, after all, he saved his life!

Buchen touched the golden pillar, and said to himself: "This has to be the blood of many people who have drunk and eaten the flesh of many people to have these four golden pillars!"

Lu Fa hurriedly said: "Over the years, what Liu Xiang has done is not only to collect the lives of the people, but even to sell women, he often does!"

The more Buchen listened, the more angry he became, he never thought that what he thought was an extremely rich town would be like this!
