Just around the time of the third watch last night, a soldier who claimed to have evidence that Lin Lie was wrongfully framed suddenly came to outside Lu Jin's line, and only said that he wanted to meet Lord Qincha in detail.

If it were another official or his subordinates, he would have been very interested when he heard this, and he would immediately have taken him in for a detailed discussion. But the brocade guards who were guarding in front of the Xingyuan Gate kept an eye on it, reporting the matter to Yao Gan on the one hand, and investigating the surroundings vigilantly on the other.

After this investigation, the problem was indeed discovered, and at the corner of a hundred steps away, a team of officials was hiding! In this way, this person's intention is very interesting, I am afraid that those who framed Lin Lie actually wanted to harm Lu Zhen by the way. Otherwise, in the middle of the night, this soldier would not have been able to appear here so easily.

According to Jin Yiwei's usual style of acting, once he encounters such a calculation, he will definitely fight back. But this time, Yao Gan held back his temperament, so that his subordinates did not break it on the spot and make trouble, but only let people say to the soldier that if there is really a grievance, they can come to appeal after dawn, and there is no need to be so sneaky, so he sent people away, so as not to leave a handle for people.

When Lu Zhen heard this arrangement early this morning, he was naturally very satisfied, because this not only allowed his family to avoid a trap of the other party, but also saw the despicable methods of these Jizhou officials, and he would naturally be more careful in the future.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that the other party was so big that he actually left this soldier who had appeared before in the mansion, and even let him show up in front of his house, Lu Zhen naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity, so he immediately made trouble and walked into the mansion.

Seeing Lu Zhen and the others suddenly rushing towards him, the soldier obviously showed a hint of panic, and subconsciously wanted to dodge. But at this time, he was in front of the gate of the palace, except for the tall wall behind him, there was almost no place to hide, and the other party came so fast that he had nowhere to hide at all, so he could only stand there very uneasily, facing everyone with a somewhat stiff smile.

At this time, Su Mudao had already followed quickly, and before Lu Zhen could speak, he had already shouted at the man first: "Yu Da, you dare to go to Qin to talk nonsense without telling this official?" What a daring! Come on, take him down for me! ”

This is his territory after all, and as soon as the prefect gave an order, several messengers had already stepped forward, and immediately twisted Yu Da, who was already stunned, to the ground and pressed him to the ground. It wasn't until a pain came from someone who cut his arm backwards that Yu Da came back to his senses a little, and immediately shouted loudly: "My lord, the little one is wronged!" The little ......" He just wanted to say something, but he saw the threat in Su Mudao's eyes, and immediately changed his words: "The little one has never been to any Qin Mission, let alone shouting for Lin Zongbing......"

As soon as his voice fell, he found that the faces of several people present suddenly changed. Su Mudao's face was pale, while Lu Zhen and the others sneered firmly, and everyone looked at him as if they were looking at a fool. This made him more and more surprised, but he didn't know what the problem was.

"Yu Da, do you still want to argue and deny it? You didn't even admit yourself just now. Lu Zhen shook his head lightly and sighed: "Shicai Su Governor only said that you went to the official's line to talk nonsense, but it was never mentioned that you went to shout for General Lin Bing." Only people who have actually done this will know about it, do you still want to deny it? ”

was easily exposed to his lies, so that Yu Da's whole person was completely stunned and speechless. He has always thought he was clever, but now he realizes that he is still a stupid person, and when he is frightened, he directly reveals his flaws.

Su Mudao really hated to go up and kick this bad fool to death with one kick at this time, but in front of Lu Jin, he could only suppress his anger first: "My lord, I really can't imagine that there are such nonsense people, and the lower officials will ask someone to take him down for interrogation, and see who instructed him!" ”

"I think it's better to leave this matter to the official to ask." How could Lu Zhen let go of such a good opportunity? This Yu Da is obviously a chess piece set up by the other party to target him, if he can bring it back and ask it carefully, some of their conspiracies will naturally be discovered.

"This ......" Su Mudao also understood this, and suddenly fell into a tangle. He naturally didn't want to hand over the people, but since Lu Jin, as a Qincha, had spoken, it was not something he could refuse.

At this time, Liu Daorong finally stepped forward, and glanced at Su Mudao, an unreliable ally, with some dissatisfaction, before saying, "What you said is that Wei Chengbo, since this person may know some of the situation of General Lin Bing, he will naturally hand it over to you for interrogation. Yu Da, you have to give an explanation, stop talking nonsense, otherwise your family will be disgraced because of this! Speaking of this, his gaze glanced at Yu Da with a little coldness.

Yu Da immediately understood the meaning of threatening his family in his words, and his body trembled suddenly, but he couldn't say anything. Lu Zhen and the others naturally heard the meaning of Eunuch Liu's words to threaten the other party's family, but even if they were dissatisfied, they couldn't attack at this time, after all, the other party didn't directly threaten, and it looked like they were asking Yu Da to cooperate with him.

"Grandpa Liu is really thoughtful." Lu Zhen snorted, then waved his hand and said, "Come on, bring him back to Xingyuan for me to interrogate carefully." "Even if it is impossible to let him take the initiative to confess the inside story, it is always good to have such an insider in his hand.

Immediately, two brocade guards stepped forward and directly snatched Yu Da from the government officials, and then escorted him to leave.

After this incident, the uneasiness in Liu Daorong's heart was a few points heavier, this Lu Zhen was indeed far more difficult to deal with than he thought. In the past, he faced some civil officials, although he also had means, but after all, he always had concerns because of his identity, and the so-called gentleman could be bullied.

But this time, Lu Zhen obviously has a lot less concerns, and his identity is far above himself and others, once he forcibly asks for Lin Lie, and even uses some shady means like his own family, he and others may not be his opponents. In the final analysis, there is still a huge disparity in the status of the two sides, and the conspiracy methods are not so smooth.

Just as he watched Lu Zhen and the others walk out with a gloomy and tangled gaze, a team of dusty horses suddenly appeared on the long street in front of him, and they actually stopped in front of Lu Jin. And after the two sides looked at each other, the face of a brocade guard also changed: "Why did you come to Jizhou?" ”

Liu Daorong's face showed a smile after seeing the appearance of the person in charge, and he hurriedly greeted him, and said again and again: "What kind of wind is this, you actually blew the high-end head to my Jizhou City?" ”

The man who was sitting on the horse and was quite arrogant was the head of the East Factory, and the more than 20 knights who came with him were all the elites of the East Factory. Hearing the greeting, he turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "What kind of wind can it be, it is naturally Your Majesty's divine wind." This official came to Jizhou at the behest of His Majesty, and as for the purpose, he cooperated with Wei Chengbo to find out Lin Lie's case. As he spoke, his gaze finally fell on Lu Jin, and he pretended to arch his hand and said, "Wei Chengbo, please take care of me next." ”

Lu Jin's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his heart sank again, and things were far worse than he thought. Obviously, the Son of Heaven was moved by the slander of Wang Yue and others this time, and began to distrust himself, so he sent more Gao Xian to Jizhou. He is here to help himself, but in fact he is surveilling, once he is too partial to Lin Lie, I am afraid that the other party will have a reason to take action against him.

I really can't imagine that the Son of Heaven has distrusted himself to such a point now? This made Lu Jindu feel a chill, after more than ten years of monarchy and ministers, after all, he still couldn't resist the selfishness of the imperial power and the discord of those eunuchs.

In fact, this is also a reasonable thing, because eunuchs are the group of people who have been with the Son of Heaven for the longest time and have the closest relationship. As long as you don't have prejudices against them and are always on guard, you will develop a sense of trust and even dependence on them over time. It is precisely because of this that there have been eunuchs like Wang Zhen since the dynasties, and the Ming Dynasty has become a hotbed for eunuchs to emerge because of the special system. When the monarchs and ministers competed with each other, once the Son of Heaven was not the opponent of the large number of civil officials, the eunuchs would naturally be used by them to check and balance the courtiers.

Originally, Lu Zhen might be able to play this role, but over the years, he has been low-key and has a good relationship with civil officials, so the Son of Heaven has no idea about him, so he can only learn from his brother and reuse the eunuchs around him.

Although Lu Jin's doing this is good for his reputation, he has also lost the absolute trust of the emperor, and he can't tell whether he loses or earns. But at least judging from the current situation, it seems that there are many drawbacks.

After staring at Gao Dang for a moment, Lu Jincai asked, "So you are also a high-end head?" The official has to ask, who has the final say in this case? ”

"As long as Wei Chengbo is impartial and judgmental, and you have not bent the law for personal gain, the lower officials will naturally obey the dispatch." Gao Dang said with a smile. The implication of this is naturally that as long as you dare to shield Lin Lie, then don't blame me for also using the identity of Qin Cha to fight with you.

Lu Jin, who understood this, looked a little gloomy, and the matter was really quite tricky. I haven't found a way to break the game yet, and there is an extra constraint around me. And Liu Daorong, who saw this, was relieved, originally he was worried that he would not be able to balance Lu Jin, but now with Gao Dang, the situation is completely different. As long as he can't overwhelm people with power, then the puzzle he has laid is enough to put Lin Lie to death, and even implicate Lu Jin!
