Instigated by the beggars and the White Wolf Gang, countless people sat in silence in front of the magistrate's office, holding banners in their hands.
Demand a strict investigation into cases of missing children and eunuch cannibalism.
At first, it was just the sit-in that Lu Bai encouraged, parents whose children had been eaten. Later, rumors spread - all the missing children in Yancheng in recent days were eaten by eunuchs - all the parents who had lost their children came to the prefect.
Sit quietly in front of the Yamen.
So much so that later on, everyone with children at home would sit in meditation in front of the magistrate's office.
not only that.
These parents also marched around, shouted slogans, and attracted more people.
Under Lu Bai's secret control, these people even left their workshops and sat in meditation in front of the city gate in Shangcheng District.
Magistrate Lu was very worried.
He walked around and asked many questions, "You haven't received a letter from the admiral yet?"
Duoyan shook his head.
Magistrate Lu angrily smashed the table.
"Eating people! They are so bold. There is such a big commotion now, and they are still indifferent?!"
The door curtain opened and a young man walked in, "Sir, someone is here from the City Lord's Mansion."
"What!" Magistrate Lu was shocked.
What are you really afraid of?
He sighed helplessly, "Please."
A scholar quickly walked in and handed over to Magistrate Lu, "Sir, I was ordered by the city lord to inquire about the case of eunuch cannibalism. Now the people have come to sit in front of the gate of Shangcheng District. The city lord asked you to quickly find out the murderer.
There must be no fish slipping through the net.”
Magistrate Lu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to agree when the scholar spoke again.
"The city lord also asked you to write down this case in its entirety, carefully and without missing a beat, and submit it to the city lord's palace and the capital." Magistrate Lu's heart sank.
What he feared most happened.
When the admiral arrived at Yancheng, he not only inspected the imperial guards, but also the city lord.
For more than half a year since the admiral came, the city lord's palace has been indifferent. On the surface, it is peaceful, but on the inside, everyone knows that there must be a battle.
Okay!
Now it's up to him to fire the first battle.
It's not that he's afraid of the admiral.
In fact, behind him, the Lu family and Jin Yiwei had a very good relationship with each other, and their families were directly fawning over them.
But just because of the good relationship, he couldn't fire this shot.
Why did he come to Yancheng?
The direct descendants of the Lu family attain enlightenment and seek immortality, while the descendants of the collateral descendants gain glory and wealth, and at the same time provide support for them to attain enlightenment.
In turn, their direct descendants provide them with protection.
This is the inherent operating mode of the descendants of the Lu family since the ancestors of the Lu family became immortals.
As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to do things, and the same is true in the fairy world.
A god appeared in the Lu family, and the royal family did not dare to provoke him easily.
He came to Yancheng to be the prefect because he wanted to be the city lord and bring Yancheng into the Lu family's sphere of influence. In the future, he would inevitably join forces with the admiral to oppose the current city lord.
Now being used as a spearman by City Lord Gu...
Magistrate Lu was very unwilling.
But no matter if he was unwilling to do so, he still had to obey the order respectfully, "Tell the city lord that I will take care of it immediately."
After the scholar left, Magistrate Lu asked Duoyan to write another letter to the admiral, asking him to make a decision quickly.
Otherwise, he would have no choice but to report the truth to the court.
Although the Gu family has lost power, it is compared to the three major families. If his memorial is really submitted, the Gu family has many ways to make the admiral go back in disgrace.
The admiral was a figure in Yancheng, but in the capital he was a lapdog.
**
Hundreds of households in Xicheng were assassinated!
The news seemed to have taken hold, and in just half a day, it spread throughout Xiacheng District.
After Deputy Baihu received the news, he sat blankly in his chair.
As someone brought out from the capital by the admiral, Deputy Baihu knew Master Deng very well.
Although they were both in the fourth rank, Master Deng was still stronger than him.
Otherwise, Master Deng would not be allowed to be a hundred households, but he would be a deputy.
Now Master Deng is dead like that, and in front of Jinyi Guards House!
Fu Baihu's heart was raised.
He was afraid of meeting Lu Bai.
Lu Bai is a mad dog now.
Just because he asked him not to bully the Black Tiger Gang, Lu Bai destroyed the Black Tiger Gang and killed the Fifth Master. Now that he had killed three of his branches, he dared to assassinate hundreds of households in the street. What else could he not do?
Dare you do it?!
The less Deputy Baihu wants to see Lu Bai, the more he must see Lu Bai.
Lu Bai walked into his room.
"Hey, sir, that's great." He sat down leisurely.
warehouse.
Lu Bai drew out his knife.
Deputy Baihu jumped up and stood on guard behind the table.
"Peace of mind, peace of mind."
Lu Bai sat on the table in front of him, took out the knife and wiped the blood on it.
"I'll just clean the knife."
Deputy Baihu didn't dare to relax, "Lu Bai! You, what on earth do you want to do?"
Lu Bai was confused.
"I should ask you. I work diligently for the Admiral, but no one makes me feel uncomfortable."
Deputy Baihu could sense that Lu Bai still wanted to do something with the Admiral.
He became more courageous and said, "You are too diligent, you..."
when!
Lu Baida inserted the knife into the table, "What did you say?"
Deputy Baihu took a step back in fright, "I, I said, we have something to talk about."
"now it's right."
Lu Bai put away the knife, stood up and walked out.
When I got to the door, I almost bumped into a white-faced little eunuch.
He was panting and sweating on his forehead. He raised his head and said angrily, "You don't have fucking eyes!"
"Hey!"
Lu Bai raised his eyebrows.
Before he could get angry, the young eunuch squeezed into the deputy 100's house and whispered a few words into his ear.
The expression on Deputy Baihu's face changed. First he felt like crying but no tears, then he nodded helplessly, and finally looked at Lu Bai.
Lu Bai is waiting for the young eunuch.
Deputy Baihu pointed at Lu Bai, "He, he is Lu Bai!"
The little eunuch who was wiping his sweat flashed his waist and knelt on the ground, "Lu, Mr. Lu?"
Lu Bai leaned against the door frame and said, "Come out quickly. I haven't told you whether you have eyes or not."
Bang bang bang bang!
The little eunuch gave himself four big slaps, his cheeks bulging out visibly, "Master Lu, I am a young man who is short-sighted. Your Excellency does not care about the faults of small people."
Not interesting.
Lu Bai waved his hand and turned to leave.
"Brother Lu." Deputy Baihu greeted Lu Bai cordially, "Please stay, I have something to say."
Lu Bai turned his head and looked at him strangely.
This tone——
Something's wrong.
Deputy Baihu asked the young eunuch to leave and asked Lu Bai to sit down enthusiastically.
"Brother Lu, we had some misunderstandings before." He made Lu Bai a cup of tea enthusiastically, "I want you not to offend the Black Tiger Gang, it's my brother... I'm wrong, I misunderstood the admiral, blame me, blame me.
"
What is a adopted grandson?
The Admiral has seven adopted sons and I don’t know how many adopted grandchildren.
Adopted grandchildren are not important to adults.
"Talents like you are the most important to the Admiral!"
He looked at Lu Bai affectionately. He didn't know, but thought there was something wrong with his orientation, so Lu Bai hurriedly leaned back.
Deputy Baihu stood up straight.
He told Lu Bai that the Admiral never expected that one of his subordinates would believe in evil.
He reassured Lu Bai that the admiral had handed over all the information about the fifth master to the prefect, and asked the prefect to conduct a thorough investigation.
"Oh, it turns out it was all a misunderstanding." Lu Bai said in a perfunctory tone.
"Yes, it's all a misunderstanding."
Deputy Baihu offered tea instead of wine and clinked glasses to Lu Bai, "I offer tea instead of wine to apologize to you."
