Zhou Bowen was full of resentment and anger, but it all dissipated at this moment.

After Wen Wensong brought Zhou Bowen in, he first asked the servant to bring him a hand stove to warm his hands, and then asked the servant to order more stoves to make the room warmer.

"What's the matter?" Wen Wensong warmed his hands in front of the stove. "Even if something happens, you don't need to stand around stupidly, just send someone to send me a message."

"My father was arrested by the yamen, did you know that?" Zhou Bowen had drunk too much, and he managed to cheer up to find someone, and because of the cold wind blowing outside for a long time, now his head hurts even more.

Wen Wensong was surprised: "Really?"

"Of course." Zhou Bowen frowned, "Aren't you the next county magistrate?"

"You also said that you are going to take office, but I haven't taken office yet!" Wen Wensong said, "I went out early today, and I don't know what happened. Why was your father arrested?"

"I don't know either." Zhou Bowen said, "I was still in Chunfenglou just now, and my mother sent someone to find me, saying that my father had been arrested. I'm still at a loss."

"Who captured him?"

"I'm not at home, I don't know!"

Wen Wensong shouted outside: "Come here."

A clerk walked in.

Wen Wensong asked about Zhou Fugui.

The yamen servant explained everything truthfully.

"Okay, I see, you step back!" Wen Wensong waved his hand.

As soon as the yamen servant left, he continued: "The person who arrested him is Lu Daniu, who is Lord Lu's confidant. He only listens to him, not even to me. It seems that it is Lord Lu's order. What happens next? When Master Lu comes back, I will ask him to find out."

"When will Mr. Lu come back?"

"I don't know yet. He went to Baili Village, where an avalanche caused a landslide, and the situation is unknown." Wen Wensong patted Zhou Bowen's shoulder, "Don't worry, go back and wait for news. Master Lu didn't come back, your father's If no one asks about the matter, he will certainly not be wronged. This at least shows that he is safe."

"You're right. Brother Wen, my father will trouble you to take care of it. "

When Lu Zhiqian came back, Mu Siyu was making barbecue.Seeing him come back, I asked about Lu Yi's situation, and learned that the place was under control and people were rescued.

"Although he was rescued, he was seriously injured, and now we need to send some medicinal materials there." Lu Zhiqian said, "Baili Village was originally far away from the city, and now there are no medicinal materials. We have to collect medicinal materials from the city."

"Then go quickly!"

A few days later, Lu Yi finally came back.

Mu Siyu touched his face distressedly: "I lost a lot of weight."

Lu Yi grabbed her finger: "Madam loves me so much, this little crime is not in vain."

"I've been tired for so many days, and I'm still in the mood to talk sweet words. You should take a break, there is a black cloud under your eyes. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you will die suddenly."

Lu Yi had no time to rest.

Not long after he arrived, Wen Wensong came looking for him.

He drank the tonic soup that Mu Siyu had been cooking for several hours in a few sips, and followed Wen Wensong away.

"Can't hold back anymore?" Lu Yi asked.

"I just gave a little hint, and Zhou Bowen told me about the three generations of their ancestors. But this Zhou Bowen doesn't know much, so he didn't get any useful information. It seems that he wants to find out about you. The cause of the death of parents has to start with that Zhou Fugui. It's just that this Zhou Fugui is not as easy to deceive as Zhou Bowen. If the things that happened back then were related to him, the best way for him is to pretend to be innocent, and it is impossible to tell you these things of."

"I'm not afraid that he won't speak." Lu Yi said, "As long as he has a weakness."

"Do you want to take a rest first?" Wen Wensong said, "Is the matter in Baili Village very troublesome? I see that you haven't slept for a few days."

"The mountain range is prone to collapse. I took this opportunity to help them solve it. It is true that I haven't closed my eyes for a few days." Lu Yi said, "But I am more anxious to know the real cause of death of my parents. The hard work is nothing. "

"As you please!"

Zhou Fugui was imprisoned for a few days, and he lost a lot of weight, looking haggard.Fortunately, it's winter now, if it's summer, his whole body should be smelly.

But winter also has winter pains, such as almost freezing to death at night.

Zhou Fugui just wanted to leave this ghost place earlier, no matter what he was asked to do, as long as he could get out of here.

"Master Lu..." Seeing Lu Yi, Zhou Fugui asked, "What do you mean? I am an honest businessman, and I have never done anything illegal."

"Didn't do anything illegal?" Lu Yi said lightly, "You have inquired about my identity, who my father is, and how my parents died. Do you want to explain to me, Boss Zhou?"

"Lord Lu, did you misunderstand something?" Zhou Fugui said, "Your parents had business dealings with me back then, and our relationship is very good..."

Lu Yi had already guessed that Zhou Fugui would not say it so easily, and after hearing what he said, there was no emotion on his face.

His appearance made Zhou Fugui panic even more.

"My lord, what I said is true."

"It seems that you haven't figured it out yet, so think about it again. When you figure it out, I'll come and talk to you in detail." Lu Yi turned and left.

After leaving the prison, Lu Yi went to the study.

"Wen Song, after the snow disaster, there will be a disaster. From the current point of view, the people's life next year will not be easy. Have you thought about how to get through the difficulty?" Lu Yi said lightly.

Wen Wensong said: "Next year's crops will definitely not be good. The common people don't even talk about eating them. I'm afraid they won't even be able to collect their taxes. I don't have the skills of my wife. I can still build a project for them to offset the taxes. I think the only way to go up Apply face-to-face to see if you can reduce or exempt taxes.”

"This heavy snowfall is not limited to Hubei City, other cities can pay taxes, only Hubei City can't pay taxes, you are a new official, what does Shangfeng think of such achievements?"

"Then we can't be a dog official who persecutes the people?" Wen Wensong had a headache, "What good strategy do you have?"

"Since Madam can get something like a kang stove in the room to keep warm, can we also make the crops survive the cold season?"

"Can this work?"

"Madam has a lot of ideas, I'll go back and discuss with her, and I'll tell you when I get the result." Lu Yi yawned, "I'll go back and rest for a while, or Madam will get angry."

"Where is Zhou Fugui..."

"Leave it alone, don't worry about him. You should deliver food, just like other prisoners." Lu Yi said calmly, "I'll meet him when his heart is calm."

Since it was found that there was something wrong with the death of his parents, it was impossible for him to hide.If he doesn't know the current affairs, he doesn't mind using some special methods.

Lu Yi went back to his room to rest.

Mu Siyu who was with him originally fell into a deep sleep with him.
