Hearing the rumble of horse hooves, the refugees all turned pale with fright and their legs trembled. Common people like them could still put up a fight with the soldiers guarding the city, but if they were replaced by cavalry, they would only need to charge.
, can kill most of them.
Lin Jingzhi and Aunt Yu arrived later and were shocked when they heard the sound. Did Wang Meng ask the Zheng family to send a cavalry to help him in order to capture him?
If that's the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape tonight.
Before the cavalry could enter the city, Aunt Yu suddenly rushed to the side, then took a few steps on the wall and climbed onto the roof. "Second Master, come here quickly. I will pull you up to the roof."
Lin Jingzhi knew how powerful the cavalry was, so he quickly ran forward, grabbed the rope thrown down by Aunt Yu, and climbed up.
The Luocheng sergeant who was chasing behind did not know what was happening in front of him. He started fighting with the refugees again, shouting loudly. Soon after, the cavalry team, which shook the ground they stepped on, finally rushed into the city.
However, these people obviously didn't expect that there were actually two groups of people fighting in the city. The one at the front quickly pulled the reins of his horse and stopped.
Lin Jingzhi climbed on the roof and looked over. He saw that the horses under the cavalry seats were all extraordinary and breathing heavily. They had obviously been running for a long time. The cavalry officers had bright armor and were uniformly dressed.
, with a steel knife on his waist, and before he could take action, a murderous aura rushed towards his face.
"Bold, what kind of unruly people are you? You dare to resist the government. Aren't you afraid that you will be punished by the nine tribes!" All the cavalry stopped, there were about five hundred people, and then, a sissy wearing a purple brocade robe came.
They came out of the crowd, pointed their horse reins at the refugees, and shouted loudly.
Hearing this voice, Lin Jingzhi's body trembled suddenly, and his face showed hope. Hearing that the imperial envoy had stopped going south, could it be...
The refugees were stuck in the middle, with no way out and no way out. They looked gloomy and thought that they would definitely die today. At this moment, the courageous Takagi shouted loudly: "The government is unkind and wants to kill those who take care of our food."
Head of the Lin family, if we don’t resist today, we will starve to death tomorrow!”
"Yes, without the Lin family, we will have nothing to eat. Sooner or later we will die. We might as well fight with the government!" Wang Hai mingled in the crowd and shouted loudly.
The sissy was riding on the horse. Her face changed at first. She was just about to get angry, but then she stopped and asked in confusion: "Lin family? Which Lin family are you talking about?"
"There is only one Lin family in Luo City!" Lin Jingzhi suddenly stood up on the roof and shouted back.
"Oh? There is an old lady in the Lin family who was personally named Mrs. Qi Ming by the royal family?" When the sissy mentioned the word "royal family", she clasped her fists in the direction of the capital.
Lin Jingzhi couldn't suppress his joy and quickly replied: "Yes, that Mrs. Qi Ming Gaoming is Lin's grandmother."
"Then you are Lin Jingzhi?" Sissy said, and saw Wang Meng and a group of sergeants outflanking him from the other side. Lin Jingzhi recognized him, then pointed in the direction of Wang Meng and said loudly: "Sir, this dog officer is setting up a trap.
Lin is trying to seize the Lin family's property, so please make the decision for me."
"You are so bold, you even dare to seize the property of Mrs. Qi Minggaoming's family. Do you still have royal majesty in the eyes of a dog official? Come here, take it down for our family!" The sissy shouted angrily after hearing this.
, a group of cavalry rushed over. Wang Meng didn’t know where these cavalry came from. Just as he was about to ask the surrounding sergeants to resist, he saw a man pull out a glittering waistband from his waist, "We are the Yulin Army of the capital.
This time I am accompanying the imperial envoy to inspect the place, why don’t you kneel down quickly!”
As soon as he said this, there was a loud bang in Wang Meng's head, and he lost consciousness. The Yulin Army, these cavalrymen were actually the Yulin Army who followed the imperial envoy south.
Wang Meng's face turned pale and he did not dare to resist. The sergeants shouted loudly and fell to their knees.
"I'm Lin Jingzhi, I've met you, sir." Lin Jingzhi came down from the roof and hurriedly came to the sissy. The sissy jumped off the horse, tilted her body and almost fell to the ground, "Oh, this
Traveling on horseback is really hard work. After three days and three nights, our bones were all broken."
After hearing that the other party called himself our family, Lin Jingzhi was finally sure that this person was the legendary eunuch who served the royal family.
"Don't call us adults. We are disabled and can't bear it. You can just call us father-in-law." The sissy introduced herself first, and then waved her hand gently, signaling for the rest to leave.
Finally, Aunt Yu was worried at first, but when she saw Lin Jingzhi winking at her, she had no choice but to retreat five feet away.
"Did you write that jade plate and have your servants kneel at the palace gate and hand it over?" Eunuch Quan lowered his voice and asked softly.
Lin Jingzhi nodded and responded.
"Okay, that's right. You take care of yourself tonight and follow our family to the capital to meet the saint tomorrow!" After speaking, Quan Gonggong pointed at Wang Meng and asked, "What is this man's official position? What is the city of Luo City?"
Where is Shou Shen?”
"Sir, this person is the city guard of Luocheng, his name is Wang Meng." Lin Jingzhi introduced him.
"Oh?" Eunuch Quan rolled his eyes and glanced at Lin Jingzhi again, "You are so brave. You dare to gather a crowd to fight against the city guard who is in charge of a city. He has at least three thousand sergeants under his command."
Lin Jingzhi didn't dare to say anything, and then he roughly told the story of the Lin family's land reclamation. After listening to it, the father-in-law realized why these refugees risked their lives to protect the Lin family. After a few words of conversation, the two got on their horses and came straight to the house.
In the lobby, along the way, dead bodies were everywhere, and blood flowed everywhere. Every time he saw the corpse of a refugee, Lin Jingzhi felt sad. These people all have parents, wives and children!
I made up my mind to bury them well and take good care of their families.
When they came to sit down in the lobby, Eunuch Quan asked someone to take Wang Meng up. At this time, Wang Meng was disheveled, covered with dirt, and in a state of embarrassment. After a while, Wang Meng calmed down a little and asked: "You, who are you?"
, how dare you arrest a court official on the street!"
"My father-in-law is personally named by the current emperor. He is accompanying the imperial envoy to help arrest corrupt officials. Following the emperor's oral instructions, I declare that Mr. Lin Jingzhi will come to Beijing to face the saint!" As soon as these words came out, Wang Meng could no longer maintain his composure and his whole body went limp.
, and collapsed to the ground, Your Majesty, why did the Emperor invite Lin Jingzhi!
Wang Meng is a ruthless man who does bad things. Last time, in order to frame up the Lin family, he even poisoned several people to death. He is really unconscionable!
Today, another war was started in order to take down the Lin family. On the way back, Lin Jingzhi made a rough calculation and found that there were at least more than 300 corpses of refugees. If he did not avenge this revenge, how could he deal with them who had already ascended to heaven?
Dead soul?
Next, he told Eunuch Quan about the evil deeds Wang Meng had done one by one. Even though Eunuch Quan lived in the palace and was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, he couldn't help but point at Wang Meng and yell at him. In the end, Lin Jingzhi
Pointing to Liu Biao's dead body, he added: "Eunuch Quan, a few months ago, this man was a strong and fat middle-aged man, but you see, now he has been transformed by Wang Meng into a human-like person!
"
"Come here, take this faint-hearted official and beat him twenty times, put him in a prison car, and send him to Beijing for trial!" If the imperial envoy arrived in person and had Shang Fang's sword, he could chop off Wang Meng's head immediately, but Quan Gonggong was only ordered to assist.
, so he did not have the power to immediately kill the imperial official.
Just hitting twenty boards again, how could Lin Jingzhi relieve his hatred, and said: "Eunuch Quan, Wang Meng is extremely greedy, and his family has a lot of money. I heard that after the locust plague broke out in the north, the national treasury was empty. Today, the Holy One is worried..."
Without even finishing his words, Eunuch Quan understood what he meant. He picked up the gavel, smashed it on the desk, and shouted loudly: "Someone, please confiscate Wang Meng's house!"
"Yes!" A group of Yulin soldiers knelt down on one knee and responded, then found a yamen servant and went straight to Wang Meng's mansion.
Although ransacking a house would hurt many innocent people, Lin Jingzhi just said in his heart, if you want to blame, it's your bad luck, but you have a relationship with Wang Meng, a dog official.
Not long after the Yulin Army retreated, several refugees suddenly broke in, dragging two half-dead men in their hands. It was Zhang Xiu, the city guard, and the six-door chief arrester Yin Lei. As for those refugees,
It was Hong Feng and Yang Wei in disguise.
Seeing these two people, Lin Jingzhi once again complained to Quan's father-in-law about the crime. After hearing this, Quan's father-in-law didn't waste any time and directly put people in jail and ransacked his house.
Eunuch Quan knew very well how short of money the emperor was today, otherwise he would not have allowed the imperial ministers to strictly arrest corrupt officials. He asked again: "Are there still corrupt officials in Luo City? Tell me, and we will take them down together!"
"Yes!" Lin Jingzhi unceremoniously confessed all Wang Meng's confidants. Mr. Quan was also a ruthless man, so he accepted them all. However, after he dispatched all the people, he frowned, "Mr. Lin,
Our family has arrested so many officials in Luo City, who should we hand over to take care of them?"
"This" Lin Jingzhi also became embarrassed. He thought for a long time before saying, "I know that there is a person who used to be an upright official and was quite capable, but he did not know how to please his superiors and his official position has been removed."
Father-in-law Quan shook his head, "What should we do?"
Lin Jingzhi thought for a while, then his eyes suddenly rolled, he was thoughtful, and lowered his voice and said: "Eunuch Quan, do you know what is written on the jade plate I submitted?"
"This, even if I don't know all of it, I still know half of it." Father-in-law Quan replied.
Father-in-law Quan was originally a popular figure around the current emperor, otherwise he would not have been appointed to work with the imperial envoy. Later, the father-in-law who went to the imperial envoy's residence to issue the imperial edict gave him another oral edict and was ordered to tell him the copy of the jade plate.
The general content was that he should treat Lin Jingzhi preferentially and rush back to the capital to meet the saint as soon as possible.
Seeing that Eunuch Quan roughly knew something, Lin Jingzhi no longer hesitated and said: "Eunuch Quan, since you know something, you should understand that Luocheng must appoint a trustworthy person to be in charge, otherwise Wang Meng just left.
, Tian Ji will send his confidants to take over again..."
"Yes, what you said makes sense. In this case, I will do as you say!" Quan Gonggong immediately issued an order, asking Zhang Jia to temporarily guard Luo City in white clothes.
After catching all that should be arrested, and after discussing with Lin Jingzhi for a while, Quan's father-in-law's eyelids started to fight and he couldn't hold on any longer. In order to get to Luo City, we took him back to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit as soon as possible. Quan's father-in-law had already been there for two days.
He couldn't sleep at night. When Lin Jingzhi saw this, he quickly excused himself.
The appearance of Eunuch Quan was like a sudden force, and he captured Wang Meng and others all at once. Lin Jingzhi walked out of the lobby and hugged Aunt Yu tightly in his arms with excitement!
Aunt Yu made a slight effort and let him go.
"Yu'er, my husband will go to Beijing with my father-in-law early tomorrow morning to meet the saint. Let's quickly go to the Xicheng Courtyard to say goodbye to the old lady... dd
