As soon as the words fell, Wu Ji and the others, who had changed their clothes, walked in.Seeing Lin Rui's sharp eyes looking at him, the county magistrate was so frightened that his hands and feet went limp, and he immediately slid off the chair, afraid that he would raise his hand and throw a knife again.

"Ah! Good man, spare your life! It's none of my business! I was forced!"

This county magistrate is indeed a bullying, stern and introverted fellow!

The onlookers were all amused by the magistrate's antics.

The leader didn't smile, he was just confused, and subconsciously felt that the situation was not good, but after thinking about the identity of the person behind him, he felt at ease, and immediately reminded the gawking county magistrate: "My lord! Wu Ji is here , why don’t you get sentenced soon? You are a parent officer, no one dares to do anything to you! If you keep doing this, someone will be dissatisfied!”

Being reminded by him, the county magistrate realized how unbearable his actions were. Although the leader reminded him how high the identity of the master behind him was, so that he didn't have to be afraid of threats from others, as long as he thought of Lin Rui's throwing knife With the feeling of passing by his scalp, he shuddered! He had no choice but to sit on the chair tremblingly, and said tremblingly, his voice was so weak and distorted: "Come, come!"

Catcher stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "My lord."

"Hurry up, beat Wu, Wu Ji, and put them in prison!"

"My lord, this is really inappropriate!" the head hunter tried to persuade him again and again.

The county magistrate was suffering on both sides because of the threat from the people behind him and Lin Rui, but now he heard that even a small captor dared to attack him again and again, and he couldn't help but get angry: "Bold! Dog , even you dare to refute this official? Against you!"

"My lord, I don't dare to be a villain, it's just..." Catcher looked at Lin Rui in embarrassment.

Lin Rui nodded at him.

So the head catcher quickly walked towards the county magistrate.

"Bold thief, what are you doing!" The county magistrate obviously didn't understand the direction of the matter.

The head catcher drew his knife and put it on the county magistrate's neck, and then reported to Lin Rui: "General, the madman has been captured."

"Very well, handcuff it and put it in the cell first."

"Yes!"

As early as the catcher called out the word "general", the county magistrate sat on the ground paralyzed, frightened and at a loss.And the leader also froze in place, silent like a cicada.As for the other onlookers, they were all frightened, and at the same time they couldn't help but feel glad that they stopped and apologized just in time, and didn't help the evil to the end.

Because of this incident, the county government that had just returned to the bustling city has become silent.Therefore, under such circumstances, even a little bit of sound will stand out, let alone such a loud sound.

"Master Shangshu is here!"

Everyone was startled, knelt down quickly, and shouted: "Welcome to Lord Shangshu!"

As soon as the words were finished, a middle-aged man in a red official uniform with a white crane embroidered on his chest came in surrounded by attendants.Looking at his face, his complexion is fair and clean, and his facial features are not outstanding, but they are very tasty together.The whole body has the unique atmosphere of calligraphy and ink of literati, which looks elegant.The most shocking thing is that there is a little cinnabar red in the middle of this man's brow. It is obvious that this official worships the first-rank Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is a brother.

Wu Ziyu was obviously also a little surprised, not only because the Lord Shangshu, who was ranked among the ministers, was a brother, but also because he didn't expect him to come here, and he just arrived at this point, combined with the fact that the county magistrate and the leader were obviously supported An arrogant attitude can easily lead to conspiracy theories.But in the next second, he overturned this conclusion, because he saw Song Xingchuan laughing and waving at himself and Lin Rui behind Shang Shu.

"My humble minister Yan Mengsheng pays his respects to General Lin."

"Master Yan, please get up." Lin Rui politely gave a little support, and Yan Mengsheng stood up.

Wu Ziyu looked at him curiously, feeling that he looked familiar, but couldn't remember when and where he met him. He thought about the name "Yan Mengsheng" in his mind, but he still had no impression.

Yan Mengsheng and Lin Rui were exchanging pleasantries, but they couldn't ignore the fiery eyes on themselves, so they shook their heads helplessly and smiled, and said to Wu Ziyu, "A Yu, do you still remember me?"

"Ah?" Wu Ziyu didn't expect him to talk to him, but after hearing the question, he could only scratch his head in embarrassment and smiled flatteringly at him.

"Hehe, you don't remember even if you think about it. I am your Uncle Yan, your grandfather is my mentor, your father and I are brothers. The last time I saw you, you were only two and a half years old, a small one, la Wearing my robe, I insisted that I carry you to play, but now you are a husband and a mother, it’s true that things are different!" Yan Mengsheng sighed, then took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, and handed it to Wu Ziyu, "This is a meeting ceremony. I, as an elder, wish you well. Don't refuse."

Yan Mengsheng said it like this, and Wu Ziyu couldn't refuse, so he took the jade pendant with both hands and said, "Thank you, Uncle Yan!"

"A Yu, General Lin is a person worth entrusting for life. You are together. I think your father will be very pleased if Izumi knows." Yan Mengsheng's mood suddenly fell.

Wu Ziyu hurriedly comforted him: "Uncle Yan, my father will be very happy to have you miss me so much."

Yan Mengsheng twitched the corners of his mouth: "Let's not talk about this. Let's deal with the current matter! I was ordered to make a southern tour to inspect the achievements of officials. I was supposed to go to Min County, Jingzhou today, but I ran into Song Xiaojiang and was stopped halfway. Come over here. I wonder if the general interrogated the whole story?"

"Master Yan, Mr. Lin is a general, not good at interrogation."

"In this way, the subordinate officer will do it for me."

"Lord Laoyan."

"Don't dare, it's a matter of duty."

After Yan Mengsheng finished speaking, he went straight to the public case, sat upright on the chair, with a serious expression, not angry and majestic, against the four characters "Mirror hangs high" on the plaque above his head, he looked even more stern and selfless, as if he was reborn from the blue sky.

Yan Mengsheng slapped the gavel and said, "Success!"

"mighty…"

"Take the prisoner!"

The police quickly brought up the county magistrate and leader who had already frightened to death.

"My lord, please spare me! It's none of my business!" The magistrate begged for mercy.

"The county magistrate of Zhou County in Jingzhou, this official came here not only because of you covering up the criminal and framing Zhongliang, but also because of the fact that you bought the official. The servant of the official department who accepted bribes and sold officials and nobles has pleaded guilty to the law, and this official has also investigated. All the evidence that proves that you bought an official, you, recruit or not!"

"Ah!" The county magistrate didn't expect to be found out about his purchase of an official, and he was so scared that he peed his pants on the spot.But at this moment, he could no longer care about his embarrassment, and quickly prostrated himself on the ground, shouting: "I'll recruit! Spare me, my lord!"

What happened next was a matter of course, and the evidence was solid. The county magistrate had to explain everything about buying an official, including Wu Ji's poisoning.

It turned out that the incident originated from Wu Ziyu's new business, Medicinal Food Room.After he handed over the matter to Li Han and Wei Xuan to be fully responsible, he let it go, so he didn't know that there was a problem with the site selection.

It is not so simple to choose a restaurant location. Not only must the price and the flow of people be considered, but also factors such as the consumption level of the people in the location and whether the transportation is convenient.Li Han and Wei Xuan ran around for several days but couldn't find a suitable one. When they were worrying about this, they heard that Liuxianju had closed down due to poor management, and the boss was about to sell the shop.As soon as Li Han and Wei Xuan heard this, they knew that the opportunity had come. No matter what aspect it was, Liuxianju could not be more suitable.So the two agreed to come to the door.

But what they didn't expect was that when the boss of Liuxianju heard that one was his old rival and the other was Wu Ji, who had embarrassed him, and now gave Li Han an idea to steal his business, he got angry from it. , Just sitting on the ground and raising the price, the lion opened his mouth wide.Li Han and Wei Xuan couldn't do what he wanted, and they tried their best to negotiate the price, but the boss was determined, so the negotiation fell apart.

At this point, the matter should be over, but the boss is a small-minded person, thinking that his restaurant has closed down, but the enemy is getting better and better, and even wants to open a new restaurant. The more he thinks about it, the more angry he is, he plans to punish them.Li Han was powerful, so he didn't dare to go up to the Rugui Building to make trouble, so he set his sights on the newly opened Wu Ji.At first, they just found thirteen beggars, washed up and went to Wuji to eat, and then asked them to pretend to have a stomachache and frame Wuji as unclean.But the boss changed his mind after being instigated by his nephew, which is why he was poisoned.

Of course, this nephew is the leader kneeling in the courtroom now.

So, why did the county magistrate collude with them?The answer is very simple, of course it is for money! The county magistrate accepted the benefits of Liu Xianju, so naturally he wanted to speak for Liu Xianju.As for why the leader instigates a group of people to drive people away from Wu Ji's gate, because he knows that the county magistrate is a corrupt official, as long as Wu Ji pays more money than Liu Xianju, then they will be fine, so he came up with this trick again. Be prepared.

At this point, the matter became very clear. According to their confessions, Yan Mengsheng asked people to go to relevant people to obtain evidence, and the incident of Wu Ji's poisoning came to an end.

"Although there doesn't seem to be a single loophole, I still feel that something is wrong." It was already night, and Wu Ziyu and Lin Rui helped Yan Mengsheng clean up the dust. When they talked about this matter during the meeting, it was inevitable to sigh again, but Wu Ziyu But in my heart, I vaguely felt that something had been overlooked.

"Heh, the county magistrate looks like an idiot at first glance, not to mention his short-sightedness, he is still a timid person." Yan Mengsheng seemed to be just evaluating the county magistrate.

Wu Ziyu had a flash of inspiration: "Ah! That's right! Something is wrong here! After the county magistrate was threatened by Ziqi, he was obviously terrified to death, but he still refused to let go. This is not in line with his character!"

"Because there is a big person backing, or threatening, no matter how afraid you are, you will have to go." Lin Rui explained.

"Big man? Who?" Wu Ziyu asked suspiciously.

Yan Mengsheng smiled, and wrote a word on the table with his finger dipped in wine.

"Seven?" Wu Ziyu read out, "What do you mean?"

Yan Mengsheng reminded: "A Yu, think carefully about what kind of big shots can be replaced by numbers."

Wu Ziyu thought for a while, then suddenly said in shock: "Could it be..."

Lin Rui and Yan Mengsheng nodded at the same time.
