It is only said that Cai Fu, an iron-armed man, sent Yan Qing to the cell and then came home.
As he was about to arrive at his home, he was stopped by a tea doctor on the street, saying: "Jie Jie, there is a guest at Xiaoren's place, waiting for Jie Jie to come back."
When Cai Fu followed Dr. Cha to the waiter, he recognized that it was Mr. Lu who was in charge of Li Gu. Cai Fu also knew what the richest man in Beijing was doing, and he was very contemptuous of Li Gu's ungratefulness. He immediately said
: "I wonder if Li Duguan has any advice?"
Li Gu clasped his fists and said: "I'm afraid the princes already know what you want. Tonight, I just want to cut the grass and root out the roots. It's not very filial. Here are fifty taels of garlic gold and send them to the princes. I've already taken care of the Yamen officials.
At the provincial level, just take action."
Cai Fu smiled disdainfully and said, "I've known about your unintentional deeds for a long time. You married his wife, and I'm afraid a lot of his family property was involved. Now give me these fifty taels of gold, and you'll take his life.
People know how much of their family fortune you have implicated. But?"
Before Li Gu and Jia reported the matter, they had embroiled a lot of money in the family. He was in charge of the accounts of the Lu family, and the government did not find any flaws in the investigation.
Li Gu didn't expect that Cai Fu saw through it, and he couldn't help but said in shock: "The money of the Lu family has been confiscated, how dare I take it privately. Is it because the section level is too small, and such a villain adds fifty taels."
Cai Fu didn't want to take the job, and shook his head and said: "Li Duguan, you are too stingy. The richest man in Beijing, Lu Yuanwai, only deserves this one hundred taels of gold? If you really want me to kill him, it's not my fault."
You only give me five hundred taels of gold."
Li Gu couldn't help but change his expression when he heard Cai Fu's big talk. After weighing it for a while, he said: "I have gold, but I don't have it with me. I will go back to get it now. I will definitely deliver it before nightfall. Please also ask the provincial officials."
Get it done tonight."
When Cai Fu heard that Li Gu had paid such a price, he couldn't help but secretly wonder how much of Lu Junyi's family wealth Li Gu had taken away from him, and how much money Li Gu had to spend to kill someone and silence him.
"Wait until you bring the gold."
Cai Fu didn't want to talk to Li Gu anymore, so he responded casually, got up and walked home.
Cai Fu had just had lunch at home, and Li Gu brought the gold.
Seeing this situation, Cai Fu also knew that Li Feng had really taken care of everyone in the yamen. If he stopped him here, I'm afraid his level would be over. After thinking about it again and again, he could only accept the gold and promised Li Guyin
Start late.
Cai Fu rested at home all afternoon and had dinner. When he was about to go out to the cell, he heard someone knocking on the door. When he came out to check, it was Yan Qing leading two big men.
Cai Fu welcomed the three people in. Seeing Yan Qing following them, he couldn't help but wonder: "I wonder what the names of these two people are?"
Yan Qing introduced: "These two brothers are the leader of Liangshan, Shi Xiu, a desperate man, and Yang Xiong, a sick man."
When Cai Fu heard that the two men were Liangshan leaders, he couldn't help but change his face in fear. He reluctantly clasped his fists and said, "I have admired the reputation of Liangshan heroes for a long time. I wonder if these two leaders have any advice?"
Shi Xiu clasped his fists and said: "I used to copy Yuan Wai to Liangshan to earn money from Yuan Wai. Unfortunately, Yuan Wai Lu didn't want to join the gang and insisted on coming back. The little bully was afraid that something might happen to Yuan Wai Lu, so he sent me and me here to find out about Yuan Wai Lu. I didn't expect Yuan Wai Lu to be the real one."
He was framed by a corrupt official, an adulterer, and his wife. He was put on death row, his life hanging by a thread. I heard that you were imprisoned at the provincial level in both houses, so I came to you specifically to tell you that if Yuanwai Lu lives, I will commit suicide.
I will not forget your kindness, but there is something wrong. The troops approach the city, approach the ditch, break the city, complain and take revenge."
When Cai Fu heard this, he quickly clasped his fists and said: "I also respect Yuan Lu as a person, but Liang Zhongshu sent him to death row and will be executed sooner or later. I am only a prisoner, how can I save his life."
Shi Xiu smiled and said: "I heard that you are a righteous man. There are five hundred taels of gold and some jewelry here. Please take the trouble of the provincial level to do some research. As long as you can cut off Yuan Lu and make a thorn."
Cai Fu didn't expect to receive 500 taels of gold twice in one day, but what he was asked to do was completely opposite. It was hard to refuse Li Gu's gold, but it seemed even harder to refuse Liangshan's 500 taels of gold.
Seeing that Cai Fu was silent for a long time, Shi Xiu frowned and said: "A good man does his job, so don't hesitate, just ask for a duel."
Seeing that Shi Xiu was impatient, Cai Fu gritted his teeth and took the package from Shi Xiu, saying: "Don't worry, strong man, the villain will do his best."
When Shi Xiu saw Cai Fu taking the gold, he smiled and said, "Good man, if I can save Yuan Lu, everyone in the village will be grateful."
Cai Fu sent Shi Xiu and the others out, then went straight to the prison and found his brother Yi Zhihua Cai Qing to tell him about the matter.
Cai Qing thought for a while and said: "The Lu family has been philanthropic for generations. If our brothers harmed Yuan Lu, we would probably suffer retribution. Moreover, the heroes from Liangshan came to visit us again, and there was gold sent by them. It would be better if we pretended to be Lu."
Liang Zhongshu and Zhang Kongmu are both profit-seeking people, and Yuanwai Lu has been charged with crimes and accepted bribes, so Yuanwai Lu's life will be taken care of. When the time comes to assassinate his wife, whether he can be saved or not depends on the Liangshan heroes, and we can be counted among them.
Tried my best.”
Cai Fu nodded and said: "Brother's words are just what I want. You can get some good food and wine for Mr. Lu, and also give him some news. I will go and take care of things."
Lu Junyi burst into tears when he heard that Liangshan heroes came to inquire about him.
The next day, Li Gu came to Cai Fu's house to inquire about Lu Junyi's life and death.
Cai Fu then said, "I was about to take action, but Mr. Zhongshu sent an order to spare Lu Junyi's life, so I can't take action. Here is your gold, I will return it to you."
Li Gu heard that it was Liang Zhongshu's order, but he was wondering if it was news that he was involved in the Lu family's money. Liang Zhongshu wanted to keep Lu Junyi to check.
Li Gu also refused to accept the gold and said, "Keep it at the Jie level first. I'll go to the top to sort it out. Then I'll have to trouble the Jie level to do it."
Hearing this, Cai Fu nodded and said, "It's easy here, as long as no one from above can stop you."
Li Gu came out of Cai Fu's house and rushed to Zhang Kongmu's house to spend money. He did not dare to ask Liang Zhongshu to directly order Lu Junyi to be executed. He just wanted Liang Zhongshu to be more lenient and let Cai Fu take Lu Junyi's life in prison.
Zhang Kongmu had also been managed by Cai Fu, and he was still thinking about the reward promised by Cai Fu when the matter was completed. He immediately agreed to Li Gu and went to Liang Zhongshu to discuss the matter, but when he arrived, Liang Zhongshu began to excuse Lu Junyi.
Liang Zhongshu read the copy compiled by Zhang Kongmu and asked: "In your opinion, how to decide this matter?"
Zhang Kongmu reported: "In my opinion, although there are witnesses and physical evidence in this case, Lu Junyi probably didn't really want to fall into the trap, otherwise he wouldn't have thrown himself into the trap. That letter may have been written by Lu Junyi out of necessity to confuse the Liangshan thieves. It cannot be considered as deliberate."
Anyone who conspires against us should be punished with the same crime. He should only be assassinated three thousand miles away. I wonder what my husband is thinking?"
However, Liang Zhongshu received some rare antiques from Cai Fu and felt that Lu Junyi's case had been settled and that Lu Junyi's life and death were of no importance, so he immediately agreed with Zhang Kongmu's opinion.
Liang Zhongshu didn't want to get involved in the case anymore, so he ordered Lu Junyi to be taken out of prison, and the court sentenced him. He replaced the wooden shackles of the death row prisoner with 20-pound iron leaf pan-headed shackles, and sent Dong Chao and Xue Ba to escort Lu Junyi to Salmon Island.
.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba were the men who harmed Lin Chong on the road. Because they were watched by Lu Zhishen all the way, Lin Chong, who was harmless, was later assassinated and sent to Beijing by Gao Qiu.
Liang Zhongshu saw that both of them were proficient in yamen affairs, so he stayed with him to listen to his advice. Today he sent two more people to escort Lu Junyi.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba received the official documents and set off with Lu Junyi.
Li Gu was afraid that Liang Zhongshu would pursue his affairs, so he had been waiting for news outside the Yamen. When he saw the two escorting Lu Junyi out, he couldn't help but be startled.
He quickly sent someone to ask Zhang Kongmu to come out and ask for details.
Zhang Kongmu said helplessly: "Your Excellency, I have already made a decision, and I can't change it."
Li Gu heard this and said uneasily: "Kong Mu, do you know why your Excellency gave Lu Junyi a light sentence?"
Zhang Kongmu said: "It should be Lu Junyi's confidant who sent a large amount of money. I also have people here to deal with it, but I have already accepted your gold, so I have not accepted any more money from them."
The fifth generation of the Lu family lived in Beijing. It can be said that they had many close friends and relatives, and Li Gu could only be regarded as one of them. After some insinuations, he felt relieved when he learned that Liang Taishu and Lu Junyi did not have much communication.
Naturally, he did not dare to ask for the money given to Zhang Kongmu.
Li Gu left the Yamen, thinking of Lu Junyi's friendship with Liangshan heroes, and fearing that Lu Junyi would escape halfway and go to Luocao in Liangshan to seek revenge on him again.
Immediately, he rushed to the city gate and asked if there was anyone escorting the prisoner out of the city, so he waited in a teahouse at the city gate.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba brought Lu Junyi out, then went home to clean up and salute before taking Lu Junyi out of the city.
When they arrived at the city gate, they saw a tea doctor stopping the two of them, saying that someone invited them to go inside to talk.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba had done this thing countless times. When they heard someone asking, they knew they were here for Lu Junyi, but they didn't know whether they wanted them to harm Lu Junyi or to take care of Lu Junyi along the way.
Dong Chao asked Xue Ba to look at Lu Junyi. When he followed Dr. Cha into the store, he saw that it was Li Gu who had reported on Lu Junyi, and he knew why he was there.
Li Gu was also aware of the style of these public figures, and he went straight to the point: "To be honest, Lu Junyi is my enemy. This time he was assassinated and sent to Salmon Island. The journey was long, and he was penniless. It was a waste of time and effort for you two. I
There are twenty taels of gold garlic here, so I will give it to you two first. You go out of the city to find a secluded place, take his life, and take the gold seal on his face as proof. Then each of you will give another fifty taels of garlic.
Gold bar. How about it?"
When Dong Chao heard this, he frowned and said: "It turned out to be easy for him, but he was just afraid that someone in the Yamen would pursue him."
Li Gu said with a smile: "I am responsible for taking care of the Yamen. Didn't Lu Junyi suffer a severe torture in the Yamen yesterday? All you can say is that Lu Junyi couldn't survive the blow and died on the way."
Dong Chao hesitated for a while, but in the end he couldn't resist the temptation of the shining gold. He took the gold and said: "Okay, it can take three or two days, or half a day, and there will be news."
Li Gu was also afraid that he would frighten the two of them when he told Liangshan heroes, so he could only say: "Lu Yuanwai is really a serious problem for me. If you two reply today, I will add ten taels more to each of you."
Dong Chao expected that Lu Junyi was beaten so badly yesterday that even if he died today, it would be okay. He immediately nodded and said: "Okay, the officials will just sit here and wait. There will be news before dark." (To be continued. Please.)
