636 Power and Temptation
Mingyue Lou is one of the high-end restaurants in Yangzhou City, located next to the Kaiming Bridge on the bank of the Surabaya River, because it is built near the river, you can see the red peony planted on both sides of the Kaiming Bridge when you open the window, so it is very popular with the literati and ink writers, without him, because of the Song Dynasty poetry composer Jiang Kui in "Yangzhou Slow" in a sentence: read the red medicine by the bridge, know who is born every year?
At this moment, Nanjing Jinyi Weidu commanded the envoy, and Tang Shaozong, the Marquis of Lingbi, was sitting in the riverside private room on the second floor. Although he is also a martial artist, Tang Houye does not have the interest of Wei Guogong Xu Pengju in vassalage elegance, his biggest hobby in this life is silver and beauty, and the reason for Tang Houye to stay in Yangzhou for nearly a month is precisely because of silver and beauty.
The silver that Tang Shaozong was worried about was naturally the batch of nearly one million taels of goods that Xu Jin transported back from Dongtai County, which is now stored in the Yangzhou Mansion, and the beauty that Tang Hou Ye remembered was Wang Cuiqiao, the three-time Jiangnan Oiran winner.
It is said that he suffered a defeat in Dongtai County, Tang Shaozong was so frightened that he hurriedly fled back to Yangzhou, but the goods did not return to Nanjing, but stayed in Yangzhou all the time, sleeping in flowers and willows every day, or sending people to pester Wang Cuiqiao, and finally forced Wang Cuiqiao to hide in Xu Jin's residence, which stopped slightly.
Later, Xu Jin eliminated the gang of thieves who captured Dongtai County, and shipped the goods worth nearly 700,000 taels back to Yangzhou.
Although Tang Shaozong was extremely angry, he was not Xu Jin, so he invited Lu Bing to Mingyue Tower to drink today, obviously planning to follow Lu Bing's path to "save the country by curve", after all, everyone is a colleague in the Jinyiwei system.
However, Tang Shaozong waited left and right, and now it was half an hour past the appointed time, and Lu Bing hadn't even gone to the appointment, so Tang Houye's old face was pulled down at the moment, and he couldn't hold his breath and have a seizure.
"How can this be reasonable, Lu Bing, this kid is too blind!" Tang Shaozong took a sip of wine and thought hatefully, although Lu Bing is a person around the emperor, this kid is just a famous brocade and a hundred households, whether it is a position or a title, he is not comparable to himself, and An dares to snub this marquis so much.
Just when Tang Shaozong was indignant, something that made him even more angry happened, at this time, his henchman Hu Fei brought a Jinyi lieutenant to push the door in.
This Jinyi lieutenant was sent by Lu Bing, and I saw him salute Tang Shaozong, and then the old god said in the tunnel: "Let Commander Tang wait for a long time, it's just that our Lu Baihu is arresting criminals and is busy with official business, so we can't come to the appointment in person, and I ask Commander Tang to forgive me." ”
Tang Shaozong couldn't help but be furious, since he couldn't come, why did he agree to go to the appointment in the first place, isn't this a clear play with Lao Tzu, so he slapped the table and scolded: "The little son of the Lu family dares to insult the marquis!" ”
The corner of the brocade-clothed lieutenant's mouth showed a hint of mockery, took out a thick letter from his arms and put it in front of Tang Shaozong, and said without humility or arrogance: "Lu Baihu has confessed, if Commander Tang is not happy, I will show you this." ”
Tang Shaozong wanted to throw this pile of things directly into the Surabaya River outside the window, but he couldn't help but be curious, so in the end he couldn't help but open the envelope and take out a pile of papers from it to browse.
When Tang Shaozong saw the first page, his face changed slightly, and the more he looked down, the more gloomy his face became, and finally it turned into fear, and even a layer of fine sweat oozed from his forehead.
It turned out that since Xu Jin's order last time, Lu Bing began to secretly collect the illegal deeds done by Tang Shaozong and his clansmen, and sorted out a large number of today's problems, such as bullying and dominating the market, embezzling and robbing other people's fields and industries, and even several life lawsuits.
As the saying goes, chickens eat fireflies - they know it.
Tang Shaozong is naturally clear about the evil he and his family have done, and the materials collected and sorted out by Lu Bing are inseparable, and they can completely stand up to verification. Not to mention anything else, it is the matter of sleeping with Ono Yuri, if Lu Bing has to give him a charge of fornicating with a thief, it will be difficult for him to get rid of it.
Tang Shaozong's face was gloomy and uncertain: "Ben Hou and Lu Baihu have no grudges or hatreds, what does he mean?" ”
A touch of pride flashed on the face of the brocade-clothed lieutenant under Lu Bing, and he said hesitantly: "It's not a big deal, our Baihu Lord said that if Commander Tang leaves Yangzhou and returns to Nanjing now, don't harass Wang Cuiqiao and Wang Wang's family, he shouldn't have seen these things." ”
"Xu Jin!!" Tang Shaozong gritted his teeth secretly, if he didn't understand what was behind him at this time, he would have lived to a dog at this age.
"The words have been brought, and Commander Tang will do it himself!" The brocade-clad lieutenant lazily arched his hand, then turned and left to go downstairs.
Tang Shaozong stood with a cold face for a moment, and finally burned the pile of things, and said, "Let's go, go back to Nanjing!" ”
Although Tang Shaozong is lustful and greedy for money, he is not so confused that he is not dead, Xu Jin is now holding the sword of Qincha Shangfang, as long as the blade of the sword is slightly off, he, the outdated Hou Ye, will have to shed his skin if he does not die, and he can't afford to provoke it!
……
The captain of the brocade clothes did not lie, Lu Bing did go to arrest the prisoner again, the target was the boss of a small cloth shop, and the crime was to participate in smuggling.
It didn't take much effort, Lu Bing detained the owner of the small cloth shop back to the mansion, he didn't bother to interrogate such a small role, and he was directly imprisoned, as long as the family took the ransom, he would release him.
It is said that during this time, Lu Bing has used this method to make a lot of money, so it is said that he has studied well for three years and learned badly for three days, and some things do not need to be taught by others at all, as long as he has power in his hands, people who are not strong-willed will gradually be corrupted by the power in his hands, and thus completely degenerate and corrupt.
Of course, Lu Bing is just getting started now, and he doesn't dare to be greedy, just to make some gains.
"Lu Baihu, my subordinates have already brought the word to Tang Shaozong." Taking advantage of the opportunity for Lu Bing to sit down to drink tea and rest, the captain in brocade reported it.
Lu Bingxiao asked with interest, "How did Marquis Tang react?" ”
The Jinyi lieutenant said triumphantly: "At first, Tang Shaozong scolded Lu Baihu, but then after reading those crimes, hey, I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat, I guess I am packing up my things now and preparing to go back to Nanjing!" ”
Lu Bing smiled contemptuously, although Tang Shaozong was a famous marquis, he didn't take it seriously, a well-aged marquis who stayed in Nanjing to retire, what a good way.
"This is a good thing, yo, take it and make it ready!" Lu Bing casually threw a piece of silver and went out.
The brocade-clothed captain hurriedly took the silver and said with a smile: "Thank you, Lord Baihu." Hehe, that Wang Cuiqiao really deserves to be a beauty who has won three consecutive Jiangnan Oiran, when she was hijacked by the thieves and monks of Daming Temple that day, her subordinates were fortunate to meet her, tsk, she is really a stunning person who captivates the country and the city, and it is no wonder that Tang Shaozong has never forgotten this old thing, and Lord Xu is so glamorous. ”
Lu Bing glanced at the goods and said, "What's the matter, you kid is envious?" Hey, don't pee and take a picture of whether you deserve to be envious! ”
"Ouch, what kind of character is Lord Xu, the little one is naturally unworthy, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to envy." The brocade-clothed lieutenant laughed with a smile, and said with a change of words: "But it's not bad that we have that little wild lily in the government prison now, it's enough to be funny and tasteful, the key is that we can still get it!" ”
Lu Bing couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Get out, you can't eat it." ”
Lu Bing kicked the lewd guy out, sat down again and continued to drink tea, and his mind couldn't help but think of the ripe melon-like buttocks of Yuri Ono when she knelt, and the seductive curves squeezed out of her legs......
The more Lu Bing thought about the evil fire in his belly, the grander it became, he stood up and walked back and forth a few steps irritably, and finally gritted his teeth and shouted, "Someone!" ”
Two brocade-clothed guards outside the door walked in and said respectfully, "What do you command?" ”
"Go...... Bring that widow Yuri Ono here, and this hundred households will interrogate her! ”
The two brocade guards glanced at each other ambiguously, agreed and left, going to the prison to pick up people.
It is said that since the prefect Jiang Ping's house was raided, the back hall of the government has become the temporary residence of Lu Bing and other Jinyi guards, so it is very convenient to go to the government prison to interrogate prisoners.
