Volume Three Famous Beilu County Chapter 264 The Disaster of Prison
If you can't catch the culprit, you have to find someone to take his place.
And the best candidates to replace them are those who don't follow suit.
I don’t know who is not smart enough to arrest the director of the county’s demon-slaying department. Wouldn’t this cost people’s lives?
Such a big shot is something he can't afford.
"Director Lu can leave now." The jailer said hurriedly, "I will teach the people below you a lesson later and ask them to come and apologize to you. No, I will remove them from their positions and give them a new blow."
!”
Lord Jun Cheng felt that simply resigning from his post would be enough to calm Director Lu's anger, so he simply punished him more severely.
After all, it’s not like he got the 30-year ban.
Lu Jiuzhang nodded slightly and walked towards the outside of the prison.
When he was about to leave the prison, a captain in golden armor walked towards him.
When their eyes met, the golden-armored captain became furious, "Lu Jiuzhang, how dare you escape from prison!"
"Jailbreak? What do you mean?"
Lu Jiuzhang was puzzled.
Isn’t this the fishing law enforcement?
"take away!"
Lu Jiuzhang was taken away again with a confused look on his face and imprisoned in prison.
It's inexplicable that this happened.
…
In the interrogation room, Captain Jin Jia stood in front of the prison chief in purple official uniform, and shouted sternly, "Who asked you to release him?"
"Sir, I was wronged!"
The prison chief quickly cried out for injustice, "I heard that he is the director of the county's demon-slaying department, and I produced evidence. Even if such a big shot commits a crime, I, a little prison chief, can't resist him."
"That's not a decision you can make casually. This person has other uses. Let him stay in prison for another two days with peace of mind." Captain Jin Jia glared at the prison chief, "I will come for interrogation tomorrow!"
After saying that, Captain Jinjia left.
Fortunately he came today, otherwise, Lu Jiuzhang might have really left.
They had no evidence to arrest Lu Jiuzhang, it was just that someone above asked him to trap Lu Jiuzhang.
Once Lu Jiuzhang gets out of trouble and returns to Beilu County, he will be in trouble.
"Understood, with your order, Mr. Xiaowei, even if the King of Heaven comes, I will not let him go." Mr. Prison Chief said with a bitter smile.
This Jinjia Lieutenant is a member of the Imperial Guard, someone who protects the new emperor.
The strength and status of those who can ask the Captain in Golden Armor to arrest someone are extraordinary.
…
Spent another day in jail.
Early the next morning, the captain in golden armor finally arrived.
Without saying a word, the other party took Lu Jiuzhang away from the prison and walked left and right to an inn.
When Lu Jiuzhang saw this inn, he almost wanted to curse.
Isn't this the place where I lived the past two days?
However, Lu Jiuzhang lived in a single-family house with a size of D at that time, while this person lived in a single-family house with a size of A.
After coming in, Lu Jiuzhang knew the specific difference between a D-shaped house and an A-sized house.
It's so big here, it's like a real mansion.
After walking through a long corridor, and then through a garden, when they arrived at a main room, Captain Jin Jia stopped.
"Director Lu, wait here!"
After that, Captain Jin Jia led the people and left.
They didn't go far and stood outside the main room in the garden waiting.
After a while, a young man in fine clothes walked out of the side room.
His appearance became more and more familiar to Lu Jiuzhang the more he looked at it.
Isn't this the fat man who attacked me two days ago?
"Little fat man, was it you who put me in prison?"
Lu Jiuzhang narrowed his eyes and became murderous.
"Who are you calling, little fat man? Call us prince!" The little fat man walked up to Lu Jiuzhang angrily, then turned around and walked to the front to sit down on the Taishi chair.
"When you see this prince, why don't you kneel down?"
Seeing Lu Jiuzhang still standing there, the fat man became angry, "You, a small county and city's demon-slaying director, dare to attack this prince! How brave you are!"
Lu Jiuzhang was only a fifth-rank official, and his status was far behind that of a prince.
But it's not that easy to get Lu Jiuzhang to kneel down.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty, did anyone see my knife on your neck that day?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"Hey, you want to deny it, right?" The fat man said with a smile, "It's useless to deny it. For our status, my words are orders and my words are the truth."
"Does that mean no one saw it?"
Lu Jiuzhang smiled and said, "Since no one sees it, what do I have to fear? What I should be afraid of is that it's you, Fatty."
"What the hell, Lu Jiuzhang, who did you call Fatty?"
The fat young man in fine clothes was furious.
"That's the Fat Prince!" Lu Jiuzhang corrected his words, "If no one sees it, there is no evidence. There is no evidence at all. You are so bold to put a fifth-rank official, the county magistrate and the demon-slaying director in prison."
!”
"My master is Master Xu, the great scholar and the president of the Overwatch Council. He is responsible for supervising all officials. Although it is not his task to supervise the royal family, I think he can still do it if I read your book."
Lu Jiuzhang looked directly at the fat man in front of him and said.
When he took action before, Lu Jiuzhang did not expect that the other party had such a profound background and was actually the prince.
No wonder it was Captain Jin Jia who took away Lu Jiuzhang.
If there is no background, it is really possible that this fat man killed him.
"Kill me today if you can, so that no one is aware of me." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Otherwise, you won't feel comfortable either."
The royal family is not as united as it appears.
If such a thing really happened, to put it mildly, it would be to imprison the court officials, but the key point would be the royal family's interference in the government affairs.
This is a taboo!
The prince must do his duty well!
To imprison officials without authorization is to violate the imperial authority.
"Kill you?"
The fat man looked at Lu Jiuzhang in front of him and was thinking in his mind.
The royal family has royal rules.
It is true that ordinary officials must kneel down to worship the prince when they see him, but the prince has no real power.
The prince is not allowed to interfere with matters in the court or the appointment of officials at all levels.
This is also because they are worried that some princes and some powerful officials will come together to gather strength and challenge the status of the Holy Emperor.
There are many incidents in history where vassal kings disrupted the government.
As for killing Lu Jiuzhang, he was also thinking about the possibility.
He shouldn't be able to kill Lu Jiuzhang alone. There is also a golden-armored captain outside.
But if Lu Jiuzhang wants to escape, I'm afraid they won't be able to stop him.
Unless the strong men from Beiyu Pass are used to kill Lu Jiuzhang.
But then, the news spread.
I have seen the fat man Xu Shi, a great scholar. He usually has a straight face and stops wherever he goes.
I remember when I was young, my mother wanted to send me to study with the great Confucian Master Xu, but what happened?
As soon as I arrived, I was slapped in the palm!
When he got home, the fat man begged his grandpa to sue his grandma and cried again, but finally he didn't go.
Later, when he often entered the palace, he would meet the great scholar Xu Shi, but he would also hide away.
The late emperor believed in being the Lord of Heaven and Earth, and gave special treatment to figures like the great Confucian Master Xu.
As for the new emperor, he was Master Xu's student and could be regarded as his closest person. This chapter has been completed!
