Datang: Starting from Li Jiancheng

Chapter 53 Robin's Complaint
After saying these words, Zhou Keshuang was about to cry, and said with a helpless expression: "Master Marquis, with just my abilities, I can't find out who is behind the scenes."

Seeing this, Luo Bin pursed his lips, then nodded and said: "Okay, since that's the case, I won't make things difficult for you, you go and call those little bastards over, and Lord Ben will interrogate them in person."

"This..." Luo Bin looked at Luo Bin with some embarrassment.

Luo Bin raised his eyebrows, frowned and said, "Is this even okay?"

"All right, all right, I'll do it right now."

Feeling Luo Bin's anger, Zhou Keshuang nodded again and again, and immediately sent someone to do it.

Anyway, even if anything came out of Luo Bin's interrogation, it was all Luo Bin's business, and had nothing to do with him, so Hou Junji couldn't rely on him.

After a while, the group of punks were crushed up.

After seeing Luo Bin, several people also felt a little weak in their legs, showing timid expressions on their faces.

"Tell me, who instigated the disturbance in my Taiping restaurant today." Luo Bin frowned and looked at the crowd, and asked in a deep voice.

The group of gangsters took a careful look at Luo Bin after hearing the words, and then tremblingly said: "No... no one instructed, it was our own intention."

"Oh?"

Luo Bin raised his eyebrows, then raised his lips and said, "Then you are dissatisfied with me?"

"Then tell me, what dissatisfaction do you have with this Marquis?"

The few gangsters looked at each other, then frowned and laughed, "Don't dare... the little ones don't dare to be dissatisfied with Lord Hou."

"Yes, yes, Lord Hou has made countless contributions to the Tang Dynasty. How can we be dissatisfied with Lord Hou?"

Luo Bin became even more angry, "Then why did you come to my restaurant to cause trouble?"

"This……"

Several people glanced at Luo Bin guilty, not knowing what to say.

"Say it!"

Luo Bin kicked one of the gangsters over with a straight face, "If even a half sentence is false, I will definitely make you regret living in this world."

Several people were shocked when they heard this, and then immediately said: "It's General Hou!"

"It was General Hou who gave us money and asked us to go to Taiping Restaurant to make trouble. We still have special respect for you, Lord Hou."

"That's right, he also specifically assured us that the county magistrate would lock us up for two days at most, and then let us out, and nothing would happen."

"........."

The few people were hooligans without a bottom line, and Luo Bin would say anything if he threatened them a little.

Zhou Keshuang on the side's face darkened a bit when he heard the words, and then immediately stepped forward, "Master Hou, this... This official really doesn't know."

"Then you know now, what should you do?"

Luo Bin frowned and looked at Zhou Keshuang, his eyes were light, unable to distinguish between emotions and anger.

"This……"

Zhou Keshuang touched his nose in embarrassment, "Master Hou, I am a small official, so this matter is not my business."

Luo Bin snorted coldly, then went to the desk, picked up a brush and wrote something quickly, then raised his head and glanced at Zhou Keshuang, "Your Majesty gave you the position of county magistrate, just to let you sit on the table to cater to you?"

"Understood dare not!"

Zhou Keshuang's heart trembled, he didn't even dare to look up at Luo Bin.

Luo Bin snorted coldly and ignored Zhou Keshuang. Instead, he picked up what he had written, blew it twice and handed it to the gangsters, "Here, draw a stamp."

The gangsters responded immediately, and obediently pressed their fingerprints.

After Luo Bin collected the confession sheet, he turned and looked at Zhou Keshuang, "They will be handed over to Lord Zhou. I hope Lord Zhou can enforce the law impartially. As for General Hou... I will leave it to the Lord."

"Yes, Lord Hou, don't worry." Zhou Keshuang cupped his hands at Luo Bin, and then responded.

Luo Bin replied in relief, and then strode out the door.

…………

Royal study.

Li Shimin is quite free these days, sitting on the table and flipping through trivial memorials.

Since Cheng Yaojin went to support outside the customs, although small Turkic troops have occasionally harassed them, they have not obtained any benefits, and there is no tendency to attack aggressively.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wu asks to see you."

Suddenly a young eunuch came in respectfully to report.

"Marquis Wu?" Li Shimin frowned slightly when he heard this, then raised his hand slightly, "Let him come in."

The little eunuch responded, and then went out.

After a while, the little eunuch took Luo Bin into the imperial study again.

"What's the purpose of Luo Aiqing coming to see me?" Li Shimin raised his eyes and glanced at Luo Bin, then said in a deep voice.

Luo Bin didn't respond, and then took out the confession letters of those gangsters from his cuffs and handed them to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, please read."

After Li Shimin took it, he opened it and took a look, then frowned, with a bit of anger.

"Your Majesty, General Hou Junji has been dissatisfied with me since the last time he accompanied me to Longyou for disaster relief."

"Today he went to the minister's restaurant to buy some wine. I don't remember the faults of others, and wanted to treat him to a drink with the idea of ​​​​burying the hatchet with General Hou. Unexpectedly, I was ridiculed by General Hou, and said that I He is not worthy of being the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, and if he says that he is with Tong Shou all day long, he will be ridiculed."

When Luo Bin said this, he pursed his lips, looking aggrieved.

Then he sighed softly and continued: "Although I am a bad person, I have been following His Majesty since I was a child. When have I ever been wronged like this? I was angry and contradicted him a few times, but I didn't expect General Hou to have a grudge against me. In my heart, I even asked someone to go to Chen's small shop to make trouble."

"He even threatened the county magistrate Zhou Keshuang to cover up Mr. Zhou, and asked His Majesty to be the master of the minister!"

Luo Bin suddenly bowed to Li Shimin, his expression so sad that Li Shimin had a headache.

"Aiqing, please don't get excited." Li Shimin calmed down, and then told the eunuch behind him: "Tell Hou Junji to see you."

"Yes." The little eunuch replied, and then went out.

After a while, Hou Junji hurried in. He was shocked when he saw Luo Bin. Then he pretended to be calm and bowed his hand to Li Shimin, "My lord, Junji, pays homage to your majesty."

Li Shimin's expression darkened, and then he threw the confession letter that Luo Bin handed him to Hou Junji, "Look at this first."

Hou Junji glanced suspiciously, then immediately knelt down in panic, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged!"

"Injustice? General Hou, I'm still here." Luo Bin frowned, with a bit of contempt in his eyes, "Is it really okay for you to talk nonsense here in front of me, the righteous lord?"

"........."

Hou Junji raised his eyes and glanced at Luo Bin, then continued to say to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, even if the subject is at fault, Marquis Wu insulted the subject first."

It was said that Luo Bin could no longer do it immediately, and squatted down to be on par with Hou Junji, "I said, Lao Hou, you are not young anymore, can you stop being so shameless?"

"Isn't it because you insult me ​​first that you will be ridiculed?"

Hou Junji also snorted coldly, "It's clear that you were the one who mocked my low salary first?"
