Daming Wuhou

Lu Changting said he wanted to show Zhu Xi's legs, but he is not a doctor after all, so naturally he just helped to prescribe some medicines, and the meaning is almost the same.

In the end, the topic was led by Lu Changting and returned to the Feng Shui master.

Although Zhu Xi was dissatisfied, Lu Changting's act of helping to apply the medicine could be considered to soothe his mood.

Zhu Xi raised his hand and tapped the table next to him.

Lu Changting understood immediately, and poured Zhu Xi a cup of tea.Zhu Xi sat there but didn't move.Lu Changting had no choice but to pick up the teacup and stuff it into Zhu Xi's palm with his own hands.

Zhu Xing held the teacup tightly, squinted his eyes comfortably, and said, "What's the name of the Feng Shui master..."

Lu Changting reminded him: "It's called Qi Yi..."

"Oh, yes, Qi Yi, he and Chen Fang don't know each other, but it can be concluded that the person who once pointed Chen Fang should be from the same clan as Qi Yi."

This is the same as what Lu Changting guessed.

Although they are just Fengshui masters, Fengshui is also divided into sects, Lu Changting can tell at a glance that they have very similar behavior styles.

"He has been detained in the Prince Qin's residence. If Changting is curious about him, he has to go to the Prince Qin's residence to meet him." Zhu Xi smiled, and some color appeared in his eyes.

Lu Changting moved forward: "Second brother should know more, right? Second brother won't you say a few more words?"

Zhu Xi wanted to hide it deliberately, but when he met Lu Changting's eyes, he couldn't resist.Zhu Xing carefully avoided Lu Changting's gaze, and said, "There's nothing to say, it's just that I've only paid attention to these people since the time I hit Zhongdu, and I have very little information in my hands."

"That time in Zhongdu?"

Zhu Xi nodded: "It can be considered that Changting reminded us. We didn't know Fengshui at the beginning, and it was from Changting that we realized the horror of Fengshui. As long as you have a heart, you can turn Fengshui into a sharp knife that kills people in your hands. " Zhu Xi's complexion turned cold, and his face became more angular.

"Naturally, these Fengshui masters should be in the hands of the royal family." Zhu Xi's face recovered a little.

Lu Changting understood what he meant. To put it bluntly, these feng shui masters were treated as terrorists and guarded against them.

It's no wonder that once it was discovered that they were all sent to Zhu Xun, it was not so much that Zhu Xun took them for his own use, but rather that he detained them for finishing work.

Like a scavenger.

After Chen Fang and Qi Yi fell into his hands, I'm afraid we can only know what they have become in Xi'an.Thinking of this, Lu Changting couldn't help looking at Zhu Xi, how much did Zhu Xi not say?The way Lu Changting looked at Zhu Xi changed slightly, how could Zhu Xi be as simple as he acted.

Lu Changting shook his head and said: "Let's not talk about this person, since the second brother is going to invite me to Xi'an, why don't you tell me about the local conditions and customs of Xi'an."

The expression on Zhu Xi's face was weird for a moment, he nodded and said: "Okay, let me tell you carefully, you will definitely like that place..."

Lu Changting thought, I like every part of the motherland.

On the other end, Zhu Xi chatted happily with Lu Changting, while on the other end, Dao Yan also mentioned the county magistrate to Zhu Di.

Gong Qian's matter was pinched, and immediately the county magistrate delivered it to his door again.

what a great opportunity...

Dao Yan nodded slightly, and said with a light smile: "In this way, things will be much simpler."

Zhu Di knocked on the table, although there was no smile on his face, but his tone was unusually gentle: "Changting is my king's lucky star."

Lu Changting didn't know what Zhu Di and Dao Yan were saying behind their backs, so he talked with Zhu Xi for a while, until it was almost time, Lu Changting reckoned that the two should have finished talking, so he bid farewell to Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xi looked at Lu Changting's back as he walked out, and shook his head lightly: "What a ruthless little Changting."

Of course Zhu Xing would not hear it. After Lu Changting came out of the room, he also read in a low voice: "Second brother who knows how to deceive people..." Zhu Xing was too frank, and Lu Changting instinctively felt that Zhu Xing said Hide half a sentence and hide half a sentence.

But think about it, he and Zhu Xi's attitudes are not the same, so Lu Changting naturally has nothing to blame.

Lu Changting simply returned to his room to rest.

Gradually, as night fell, Lu Changting turned around wrapped in a quilt.

Seeing that it was going to be late autumn, the weather naturally became cooler, not to mention that the climate in Beiping was indeed much bitterer than other places, and Lu Changting was not quite used to it for a while.Perhaps, as Zhu Xi said, Beiping is far less comfortable than Xi'an, but what about comfort?Xi'an doesn't have the bitter cold in Beiping, and Xi'an doesn't have King Yan in the fiefdom of Beiping either...

After thinking about it, Lu Changting closed his eyes again.

Vaguely, Lu Changting felt a pair of hands touch his quilt.

Lu Changting shivered unconsciously.

After those hands lifted the quilt, Lu Changting had goosebumps all over his body.

Lu Changting opened his eyes suddenly, and looked towards the visitor.

With the help of the dim moonlight, Lu Changting could see the other person's face clearly: "...fourth brother?"

Zhu Di lifted the quilt completely, then took off his outer shirt slowly, then reached out and patted Lu Changting's waist: "Go in."

Lu Changting suddenly felt an itching in his waist, he twisted uncomfortably, and there was a rare feeling of fever on his face.

Lu Changting hesitated for a moment, but still rubbed in, and successfully made room for Zhu Di.

"It's late autumn, is it cold?" Zhu Di asked.

"some."

"It was also the time when I first met you in Zhongdu." Zhu Di said in a flat tone.

Lu Changting thought he was going to reminisce about the past with himself, but who knew that he just started like this, and Zhu Di didn't go any further.

Lu Changting waited quietly for a while, only waiting for Zhu Di to stretch out his big palm, cover his head, and pat him lightly: "Sleep, I have something to tell you tomorrow."

Lu Changting could almost guess what was going on, so he naturally stopped being curious. He closed his eyes and pulled the quilt. At this moment, Zhu Di suddenly turned over, and reached out his arms very naturally to wrap around his waist.

Lu Changting even had the illusion that he could feel the rhythm of Zhu Di's heartbeat through a thin layer of obscene clothes, and the warm skin was closely pressed together.

Did he think too much?

Why did he feel that there seemed to be something different about Zhu Di?It was like a gentle person who suddenly tore off a layer of camouflage and became dangerous.

But after thinking about it carefully, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong. After all, Zhu Di didn't act abnormally, and he had slept in the same bed countless times before.

It should be that he has been overly sensitive recently... Both Zhu Xi and Zhu Di have become strange in his eyes.

Lu Changting turned over and turned his back to Zhu Di.

Well, sleep!

Zhu Di opened his eyes from behind, stared at Lu Changting's black hair for a while, and then slowly moved his eyes away.

Zhu Di had only one sentence in mind.

Well, Changting's hair is also pretty...

----

Beiping set off a moderate disturbance.

Gong Yu was busy getting back his things, and returned to his smooth path of promotion and fortune.

However, the magistrate wanted to evade one or two things in the trial of his brother-in-law's murder. That's all, it's not worth the anger of the magistrate. Evidence was also provided for this claim.

It's nothing for the county magistrate to kill someone, and it can be concealed, but the magistrate's wife's natal family has a small background.The wife's maiden name is Li, so the master of the Li family is Ping Yancheng, who announced the political envoy.

Manage civil affairs, finance, land, household registration, money and food, official assessment, communication with governors, and prefectures and counties of a province or several prefectures...

The chief secretary's jurisdiction is a first-level administrative region. Those who are officials in the chief secretary are naturally higher than others. What's more, the chief secretary is in charge of the lifeline of the economy, the survival of the people, and the evaluation of officials!

Just a little evaluation of officials, few people would dare to offend the Chief Secretary.

Tell me, are you afraid?

The magistrate is a local snake, which is amazing, and he dared to fight against the king of Yan, but as the saying goes, one level suppresses one level, not to mention that without the old man, how could the magistrate be happy today?

Now that the father-in-law died of his son, and the county magistrate was blamed again, who can really guarantee not to blame the county magistrate?Even if it is just suspicion now, there will inevitably be discord between the two.

The only blame is to blame the young son of the Li family for dying at the wrong time and the wrong place.

In just a few days, the whole city of Beiping was discussing this matter.

Lu Changting wanted to go out with Zhu Di to listen to the excitement, but he didn't expect to see Mrs. Gong's haggard face when he went out.

This is really perseverance!

In the past few days, Mrs. Gong hasn't lost a single day, she just put on an old and frail appearance, and she refuses to back down and give up every day.But after having tasted how powerful the guards of King Yan's Mansion are, Mrs. Gong didn't dare to make any noise in front of King Yan's Mansion. She just sat at the gate of King's Mansion and attracted a lot of attention.

Lu Changting guessed that she should be waiting for more people to pay attention to her. At that time, she would stand up without hesitation and pretend to tell the people around how hateful the Yan Palace is...

Lu Changting still ignored Mrs. Gong today, but walked out side by side with Zhu Di, and when he was about to get into the carriage, Lu Changting still felt a little unhappy.

The Gong family is here, they can ignore it, but after all, it really discredited Zhu Di.

Lu Changting pushed Zhu Di in the direction of the carriage, then walked up to the old lady Gong, bent slightly, and said coldly, "Who is this old lady Gong showing?"

Mrs. Gong raised her head and looked at him coldly: "Of course I want King Yan to know the true face of you, a thief!"

Lu Changting was not angry, and said calmly, "And then?"

"Then it's natural to take back what belongs to the Gong family!" She spoke confidently.

"Old Madam Gong." Lu Changting sighed softly, with a deep sense of compassion. It was this tone that made Madam Gong shiver unconsciously, and instinctively felt that what Lu Changting said next, Definitely not a good thing to say.

"If I really gave it to you, how can you have the face to meet the ancestors of the Gong family?" It is sad to say that, in ancient times, married women planned for their husband's family wholeheartedly, in order to gain a good reputation. , how many women took the initiative to take concubines for their husbands, and they had to worry about their children's future every day, and they had to take into account their husband's family's face and reputation in everything.

This Mrs. Gong is a typical woman like this.

Lu Changting also stepped on her painful foot...

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Gong was immediately irritated, and she glared at Lu Changting. If she hadn't exhausted her energy these past few days, she might have rushed forward, grabbed Lu Changting and scratched her. .

"I told you a long time ago that you can either abandon such insidious methods and live in peace, or wait for the death of children and grandchildren. Now it seems that the old lady has chosen the option of cutting off children and grandchildren. Your son won no matter how high he was by relying on such methods. What about his position? But there is no queen! What's more, those who were killed by him, don't they really come to him? From my point of view, after Mrs. Gong's death, I am afraid that they will not be allowed to enter the ancestral grave of the Gong family. Letting you indulge your son so far, you don't even care about the family..."

After Lu Changting finished speaking, he chuckled lightly, full of sarcasm: "If he really wants it, let him come in person."

Slap a sweet date.

It's just that Mrs. Gong may not dare to pick up this jujube.

Sure enough, after Lu Changting finished speaking, Mrs. Gong was trembling with anger, but she didn't dare to respond to Lu Changting's words.Mrs. Gong, who was pulled back to the same front by Gong Yushi, couldn't help but waver again.

The two choices before Mrs. Gong, one is to cut off her children and grandchildren, and the other is to cut off her son's future, both of which have extremely serious consequences.

The servant girl beside her turned pale when she saw the old lady, so she had to carry her back quickly.

Only then did Lu Changting walk back to the carriage contentedly.

Zhu Di raised the curtain of the car, reached out and patted Lu Changting's forehead: "You are really bad." That's what he said, but Lu Changting could hear a bit of doting tone from it.

Lu Changting was not used to Zhu Di's outspoken pampering.

Is this probably the change in Zhu Di?

Getting mushy?

Lu Changting shrugged, avoided Zhu Di's hand, and boarded the carriage in two or three steps.

"To the pier?" Lu Changting looked at the direction the carriage was heading, and couldn't help asking.

"Let's go, it's also a good time to ask Changting to tell me what is the mystery on this pier."

"It's nothing mysterious, it's just an idiot who made self-righteous Feng Shui. Actually, it's nothing, but it's a wrong drawing of a gourd, and it hurts others instead." When Lu Changting said this, he couldn't bear it. Can't help being slightly annoyed.

What a fool!

It is really harmful!

Zhu Di patted him on the back, this is Zhu Di's usual comforting gesture to Lu Changting, but today Zhu Di patted and patted him instead of stroking, the gentle movements made Lu Changting uncomfortable.

Lu Changting could only say: "I'm fine, I just got angry for a while." In fact, he was not like this in his previous life, it seems that he has become filled with righteous indignation in this life.

Lu Changting didn't know why he had such a change, but it seemed that it was not a bad thing to be more bloody.

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Changting is suitable for being an official, and he will definitely be considerate of the common people."

Lu Changting shook his head: "I'm not suitable to be an official, I'm only suitable to be by my brother's side and pretend to be a tiger." What he said was the truth, how deep the officialdom is, since ancient times, Lu Changting thinks that his brain is still not good enough Yes, he has to cultivate to the level of Dao Yan, not to mention that he himself has no interest in being an official.

Zhu Di's heart moved, and his voice became slightly hoarse: "That's fine, then stay by my side for the rest of your life."

Lu Changting just smiled and said nothing.

How can such words be taken seriously?You can say it with your mouth, but you must never take it to your heart.

Where did King Yan know that what he said was not taken seriously by Lu Changting? When he saw Lu Changting laughing, he thought it was Lu Changting who was moved by what he said. For a moment, King Yan's heart seemed to melt like spring water .

Zhu Di and Lu Changting talked about other topics, and they arrived at the pier not long after.

Where is the pier?It is quite rare to have a transportation road in Beiping where goods are transported. Although this waterway is not wide and the place it leads to is not far away, no one dares to move this waterway. Therefore, even if the person who died was the county magistrate's brother-in-law and the son of Yanping Chief Secretary Li Jian, the wharf would not stop working because of this.

But, so what if it doesn't work?Which of these workers didn't look panicked?

Lu Changting pointed to these workers: "I didn't pay attention to it before, but now I'm flustered, and sooner or later something will happen."

Zhu Di has seen a lot with Lu Changting, so he naturally knows why Lu Changting said this. The weird Feng Shui is not scary, but the scary thing is that people's hearts are not firm. After being disturbed, they will be in a variety of situations and absent-minded. What happened?

These workers, including the boatmen, depend on the water for food. If they are negligent, what will happen?Will it also fall into the water and drown?If there are a few more accidents, then this place can become a ghost pier.

Lu Changting walked forward quickly, and when he walked, Lu Changting noticed that Zhu Di's pace was a little slower. As a subordinate, he naturally couldn't go past King Yan, so Lu Changting just stretched out his hand and pulled Zhu Di, and the corners of Zhu Di's mouth curled up. Bend, followed his strength and accelerated two steps forward.

After walking a few steps, they came to the boatmen.The boatmen remembered them. After all, there were still a small number of people who came here by swimming in the lake, and the chance that the person who came to swim in the lake happened to be King Yan was even smaller.

So how can they not remember prison?

The boatman stood up with bright eyes and hurriedly called "Yan Wang" and "Lu Gongzi".

"Then how did Mr. Li's family die?" Lu Changting opened his mouth and asked.

Naturally, the boatmen didn't dare to hide anything, so they came one by one.

"He came to board the boat, and it should be going to a nearby city. At first, the boat he was going to take was tied to the shore and tied to the mast. When Mr. Li got on the boat, the mast suddenly shook. It shook, as if it was about to fall, Mr. Li panicked, and then fell into the water. At that time, someone went into the water to save him, but it is strange..."

"Yeah, they all said that this matter is really weird..."

"The one who jumped into the water to save him did not find him. When he was found, he was already out of breath." The boatman flattened his mouth and said.

In fact, where do these boatmen control who is dead?They just care about themselves.

Lu Changting sighed regretfully in his heart.

Mr. Li's death was brought up by a county magistrate, but it's a pity for such a young man to die like this.

"Is there anything under the water that can hinder people's sight?" Zhu Di asked.

Lu Changting shook his head: "It's not an obstacle, but it's an obstacle."

"What do you mean?" Even though Lu Changting spoke vaguely, Zhu Di was not anxious at all, let alone impatient. He knew that Lu Changting was still immersed in his own thoughts at this time, and he needed to wait quietly for Lu Changting to continue. .

"It's not that there is something blocking the line of sight, it's just that the aura at the bottom of the water has changed, and Mr. Li has fallen into a place that he shouldn't have fallen into. This caused everyone to be affected, and he couldn't be found for a while."

The former is a physical change, but the latter is extremely mysterious, and it has to be related to some kind of aura.

"What affects the aura?"

"Why is the mast not stable?" Not only did Lu Changting not answer Zhu Di's question, but he cut off his words and asked back.

"Because the rock is loose?"

Lu Changting nodded: "Soil restrains water, so where there is water, there must be soil and stones to maintain stability and hold back the water. If the foundation of the land is shaken, the water will naturally flood. Soil has been moved by people."

Zhu Di was very calm from the beginning to the end, and he didn't easily express his joy or anger because of what Lu Changting said. He asked lightly, "Then what does this man who broke ground want to do?"

Lu Changting said: "The pier is full of businessmen, if not for money, who would be willing to do such a thing?"

At any rate, Zhu Di had followed Lu Changting for a while, and naturally understood some of the simple truths, he asked: "Water produces gold, and soil restrains water, so someone made a fool of themselves and came up with the idea of ​​a pier? "Zhu Di thinks this is really ridiculous, so what about the idea of ​​starting a pier?"Can't you be smarter?

In fact, it's not a question of being smart or stupid, Lu Changting is very clear about that person's psychology.

"It should be because I have learned some Feng Shui knowledge everywhere, so I think I can handle it." Lu Changting said.This time his tone was much calmer, without the unhappiness and disgust he had before, which was also affected by Zhu Di's calmness at the moment.

"It's just such a half-assed person who killed someone." This is really embarrassing.

Zhu Di didn't feel much about this, he said: "But the magistrate is a little unlucky this time..."

After hearing this, Lu Changting also felt like laughing, this is exactly one scumbag cheating another!It's just that Mr. Li is innocent.

"That person is going to go to the earth and rocks, so he must dig out the foundation and divert the water to his place." Lu Changting brought the topic back to the person's stupid behavior, "It's easy to find this person, find someone to dive down, then If you can find the direction of water diversion, you can naturally find it, who is so stupid."

Zhu Di immediately turned around and called for someone, and ordered them to dive into the water together to find him.

The reason why two people are needed is that they are worried that something will happen underwater, so they can help each other.

Lu Changting said from the side: "There shouldn't be any difference underwater. After all, it's useless for just that person to mess around like this. He can't even form a Feng Shui bureau." In his eyes, it's like a child playing house. Average home.

Two soldiers of Prince Yan's Mansion jumped into the water.

Seeing this, the surrounding people gathered around one after another, and asked, "Did the King of Yan send someone to deal with the water ghost?" "It must be! They are all in the water!" "The King of Yan is really thinking about us... ..." The people were very moved.

It turns out that the people at the pier all regard it as a water ghost.

Lu Changting couldn't help laughing because of the simplicity of the common people.

It didn't take long for the two people to come up. They strode over with smiles on their faces: "I found it."

Looks like it's not that hard to find.

"It's a bit hollowed out below." When the two men said this, they put away their smiles: "The foundation on the pier has been dug up, and nothing can be seen for a day or two, but if things go on like this, how can it stand the water of the river?" Erosion? There is bound to be a day of collapse. At that time, it will not be as simple as shaking the mast and falling into the water and no one can be found..."

It doesn't take them to finish talking, Lu Changting also knows what will happen, if it really collapses, it will not only kill one or two people.

Then they lowered their voices and said: "The shop of the man who did it should be the boat shop at the rear." Of course they couldn't say these words out loud, for things like digging out the foundation would cause the people to panic, so instead of saying it like this, It's better to solve the problem of the pier first. Of course, it's best not to mention it at that time, and let the people regard this time as a water ghost. Killing the water ghost can avoid this situation. This is the best.

"Master, do we want to go and get someone?"

Lu Changting turned his head to look at Zhu Di, Zhu Di raised his eyelids, glanced in that direction, and said, "No need, wait until nightfall to catch him." The implication was to avoid the common people.

The two nodded in agreement.For them, it is not difficult to take people at night.

"Since the result was not caused by a Feng Shui master behind me, I'm relieved." After Zhu Di finished speaking, he led Lu Changting back to the carriage.

Lu Changting yawned lazily, and looked out of the carriage. At this moment, Lu Changting noticed a gaze watching him, and that gaze was mixed with disgust, hatred and fear, and Lu Changting turned his head immediately. Looking towards the source of the gaze, I saw a middle-aged man staring at him, but the man quickly withdrew his gaze when he realized that he was looking over.

Lu Changting chuckled, is this the shopkeeper of that shop?Feeling guilty?No wonder he would do such stupid things, this is really not enough for Lu Changting.

"What?" Zhu Di asked out loud when he noticed his abnormality.

Lu Changting pointed in that direction.

Zhu Di looked along, and naturally saw the man who hurriedly hid in the house. Zhu Di's eyes were gloomy for a moment, and he whispered: "It's nothing, he won't show up on this pier tomorrow."

Lu Changting didn't care at all how this person hated him, there were already many people who hated him, and everyone cared about him, how could he survive?

The carriage set off quickly and headed back towards Yan Wang's mansion.

As soon as he stepped into the gate, Lu Changting knew that Yan was already waiting in the mansion.

Zhu Di asked Cheng Er to deal with the matter, and left Lu Changting to accompany Dao Yan.Because of the previous incident, Lu Changting has changed his opinion of Dao Yan a lot, so naturally he is much more comfortable talking with Dao Yan at this time.

Dao Yan and Lu Changting casually talked about something.

"There was a lot of discord between the county magistrate and Mr. Li's family. For this reason, the county magistrate and his wife had a lot of quarrels. When Beiping came to take office, the county magistrate brought concubines, but the wife used the excuse of recuperating at her mother's house. , and never came. It was only half a year ago, and the relationship between the two had just eased, and the magistrate's wife called his younger brother to Beiping, and also tried to repair the relationship with the magistrate."

In other words, it is very possible to blame the magistrate for murder.

But how to buckle this pot?

Not only do you have to have a motive to kill, you also have to have a murder weapon!

"On the day Mr. Li's family boarded the boat, there was a maid who went to see him off. That maid served the magistrate and his wife on weekdays."

Lu Changting secretly thought, if it is said that the maid was ordered by the county magistrate to kill someone, it may be very credible.

Hearing this, Lu Changting always felt that Dao Yan still had something to say.

Is he hinting at himself?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Dao Yan say: "The reason why accidents happen on the pier is because someone has used Feng Shui, isn't it?"

"It's not even Feng Shui, it's just a foolish act done by a fool." A look of disdain flashed across Lu Changting's face.

Dao Yan heard Lu Changting's tone, smiled lightly, and said, "Whether it's Feng Shui or not..."

"Master Daoyan doesn't want me to tell, does he?" Lu Changting asked rhetorically.In fact, Dao Yan's meaning has already been expressed clearly. Now that he wants to be charged with the death case, naturally he can't tolerate other things. If something related to Feng Shui is spread, it will add some confusion to the case, which is not good. Sit down and know the county kills this.

Dao Yan nodded and smiled: "Changting is smart."

"My fourth brother and I reached an agreement when we were at the pier. We will not disclose this matter to the people, just to avoid causing panic. After all, the foundation has been dug, and it is in danger of collapsing."

Dao Yan laughed but said nothing.Anyway, no matter what the reason is for Lu Changting, it is enough that the result they want to achieve is consistent.

Dao Yan didn't keep talking to Lu Changting about this matter, he turned to talk about Qi Huang Shu, but he really put on the teacher's airs.The Daoyan religion is not very deep, and what he said are all introductory things, and they are enough to arouse people's interest.Lu Changting thought it was easy to accept, so he talked about going at night, and naturally, Dao Yan stayed in Yan Wang's mansion.

When it was time for dinner, Lu Changting, Zhu Di, Zhu Xi, and Dao Yan sat at the same table again.

Lu Changting is fine, his aura will be restrained, and the other three are also strong people, after sitting together, one can imagine what it looks like.

Lu Changting was caught in the middle, feeling that the atmosphere was really weird.

It would be fine if they just had weird auras, but they also made weird behaviors, that is, they took care of Lu Changting in unison.

He didn't enjoy such treatment even when he was five or six years old. Why is he still treated like a child at such an age?However, the three of them were all kind, and Lu Changting couldn't refuse, so he could only accept it with a numb face.

As if it was something he didn't enjoy before, and now he has made up for it one by one.

The time for a meal was not long, so such a weird situation did not last long. At this time, the servant came to report and said, "I got it."

Zhu Xi looked directly at Lu Changting, he knew that Changting would definitely use excuses to pull him away.

It's just that Zhu Xing really wanted to go wrong today, because Lu Changting himself wanted to hear how the shopkeeper defended himself, so he didn't take Zhu Xing away with him. Zhu Xing waited for a long time before Lu Changting could speak. I feel a little regretful, after all, although I know that Lu Changting is an excuse, Zhu Xi is quite happy with it.

After waiting for a while, the guards came in with a hooded man.

Zhu Xi had no choice but to get up and go out by himself very wisely, saying: "It's boring, I'll go out and take a walk to digest food."

"Second brother, go slowly." Zhu Di said.

There is a tacit understanding between them, knowing what should be seen and what should not be seen, even brothers can't invade each other's life too much.

The soldiers kicked the man to the ground, and Lu Changting felt that he vaguely heard a crackling sound, as if a bone was broken by kicking. Lu Changting could imagine the pain just by listening to it. The man could only whimper, presumably his mouth was blocked.

Only then did the soldiers tore off the cloth bag on his head, revealing the man's face.

The man opened his eyes wide, and the first time he saw Lu Changting's face, he flinched and backed away.Lu Changting couldn't help but wonder a little, is he that scary?Lu Changting raised his hand and stroked his face.He thinks he looks very pleasing to the eye!

Dao Yan chuckled beside him and said, "It seems that he also knows the name of Changting."

Oh, I see.

Lu Changting's debunking of Fu Zhi's story and the resolution of the Lin family's crisis have been widely spread in Beiping City. This man is worried about what he will find out, right?But it's such a clumsy method, why not look at it?

Zhu Di looked at the man, and didn't ask questions directly, but said to the people beside him: "Put on the instrument of torture."

The man's eyes widened again, and he started to tremble. He whimpered hard, and he wanted to speak.

Lu Changting felt that he probably had never seen such a simple and rude method, I didn't even ask you, I just dealt with you!There is no chance for people to build up their backbone.

The man struggled violently and wanted to speak up, but it was a pity that the soldiers really brought the torture tools.

The penalty in the Ming Dynasty was already very perfect, especially the instruments of torture were more varied.

At this time, Cheng Er waved the others away, holding a small knife, and walked forward expressionlessly.Lu Changting had never seen him like this before.
