Chapter 1097 Yangzhou Chaos
Mr. Zhou chose his own family in the end, not because he loved his family so much, but because he knew that if he didn't say it, even if he was a civil servant, he would die without a place to bury him, so he decisively took Zhai Lanye's place Speak up.

Lu Yi didn't hesitate, and was ready to leave immediately. He wanted to catch Zhai Lanye as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

But Wang Yue grabbed Lu Yi and said very seriously, "Let your people take over this place. Everyone in the prison today is not allowed to go out, let alone anyone in."

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard Wang Yue's words. After thinking for a while, he understood what was going on. In this place, 10 official silver was easily lost from the warehouse. It can be seen that all the officials and subordinates in Yangzhou Participating in it, of course this prison is not safe.

He just nodded and quickly made arrangements, but the more he arranged, the more he felt uneasy, so he simply stayed in the prison and asked Cen Fu to arrest him.

The two of them had nothing to do, so they didn't want to stare at each other, so they turned around in the prison.

Wang Yue is purely curious. He thinks that he can visit the ancient prison cells and develop a prison function in the game in the future, so he carefully read all the things here.

Wang Yue went around the prison roughly, but the person he was arrested hadn't come back yet, so he simply imagined the code out of thin air, so as to save himself from having to think about it again when he went out of the game.

During the whole process, except for Lu Yi turning around at the beginning, he basically sat in the chair motionless for the rest of the time, as if he had been hit by a fixation spell.

I don't know how long the time has passed, but Cen Fu finally came back with someone. After seeing Lu Yi, he said seriously, "My lord, when we found Miss Zhai, we found that he was with people from the Qingcheng faction. .”

Lu Yi was stunned for a while, and then said suspiciously, "Miss Zhai? Oh, are you talking about the orchid leaf?"

Seeing this scene, Wang Yue couldn't laugh or cry. He thought that Lu Yi's concentration was very strong, but he had already lost his mind.

Cen Fu seemed to have gotten used to the situation of this adult, he nodded, and said seriously, "Yes, it's her!"

Lu Yi realized the seriousness of the problem. This Zhai Lanye was actually related to the Qingcheng faction. A large number of masters from the Qingcheng faction came to Yangzhou. Did they not only seek revenge from the Lin family, but also worried about the 10 taels of silver?

Wang Yue saw Lu Yi's worry, and quickly reminded, "I think the most urgent thing is to interrogate this Zhai Lanye. Whether you can get evidence depends on your ability."

Lu Yi raised his eyebrows. He didn't know why Wang Yue was so sure, but he could still give a signal from Cen Fu to ask him to go to the interrogation immediately.

At this time, there was a noise outside the building, and soon a Jin Yiwei came to report.

"My lord, the brother-in-law of Wei Zhifu came to ask for someone, saying that we captured his concubine."

Lu Yi felt that this case was getting more and more interesting, and he really wanted to continue playing with the other party, but thinking that the river embankment needed to be repaired urgently, he couldn't wait any longer.

So, he simply looked at Zhou Xianji in front of him, and said mockingly, "Look, this is the poor man you mentioned? Isn't the backstage quite tough?"

Zhou Xian had returned to his normal mind at this moment, and he immediately understood that the poor woman was just pretending in front of him.

Thinking of this, he quickly said, "Lord Lu, I was wrong, please clear me up."

Wang Yue rolled his eyes, and said disdainfully, "Don't you forget that you have embezzled ten thousand taels of silver? Although you went back later, you can't hide this fact. You should think about how to make meritorious deeds again." .”

Mr. Zhou also understood what was going on, so he quickly said, "Miss Lanye and I met on a boat on the lake. She said that he was trained by his adoptive father to become a Yangzhou skinny horse, and he was going to sell it for a good price. I think he is pitiful. I was going to redeem him, but that Zhai Yuanwai asked for 1 taels of silver. Even if I sold my ancestral property, I still couldn’t get this much money together.

Lu Yi frowned, and found that there was no information available, so he told Cen Fu, "Go and bring that Zhai Yuanwai over."

Cen Fu immediately took the order and left. He also felt that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, but he just didn't have the slightest clue.

Wang Yue looked at the Jin Yiwei who was waiting for orders, and said to Lu Yi, "Master Lu, since Master Wei's brother-in-law likes the cell so much, why don't you invite him to stay here for a few days?"

Lu Yi didn't know what Wang Yue wanted to do, so he frowned and said, "We don't have any evidence, and it's useless to arrest him."

Wang Yue shook his head, and said very firmly, "In this Yangzhou, it is the prefect of Wei. Who else can take away the 10 taels of silver under his nose except Mr. Wei? Didn't you also say that there is only one in the warehouse?" The footprints of official boots? And there are many officials who cooperate with them?"

Lu Yi frowned, and said with some doubts, "According to your point of view, there is no need to plant this 10 taels of silver on Mr. Zhou, right?"

Wang Yue shook his head, and he said very firmly, "Since you said that Mr. Zhou was an official with an excellent official voice when he was in the capital, he must have blocked the way of some people. It is normal for someone to want to get rid of him. .”

Lu Yi thought for a while, and then said seriously, "It seems that there are many officials involved. Maybe the prefect Wei is also involved. Grabbing Mr. Wei's brother-in-law can also play a role in scaring the snake away."

Jin Yiwei didn't need too much evidence to do things, as long as they suspected anyone, they could go and check it.

Therefore, Mr. Wei's brother-in-law, who took the initiative to send to the door, was quickly invited into the cell.

At the beginning, he was very arrogant relying on his brother-in-law being the magistrate of Yangzhou, but when he found out that Lu Yi was not in this way at all, he was still clean and neat, and when he was going to use him, he simply recruited everything. up.

It's just that although he recruited, it was equivalent to not recruiting. He just said that Zhai Lanye was his good friend. If Zhai Lanye didn't want to, he would have brought Zhai Lanye to his home as a concubine.

When things got to this point, anyone who wasn't a fool would know that Zhai Lanye also had a problem. She deliberately approached Mr. Zhou just to get rid of Mr. Zhou.

At the same time, it also proved what Mr. Zhou said, that he only wanted to take 1 taels of silver for the beauty.

……

Soon, Zhai Yuanwai was also brought over. Facing the menacing Jin Yiwei, he didn't need to interrogate at all, and decisively recruited all the circumstances.

It turned out that Zhai Lanye had already been redeemed, but for some unknown reason, he was still living in his home for the time being.

Seeing that Jin Yiwei hadn't let him go, he hurriedly told all about Zhai Lanye's past.

Including Zhai Lanye who likes to sing opera very much, and her singing level is better than that of Yun Zheyue in Chunxi Troupe.

It's just that this story doesn't help the case, and everyone is not interested in listening to it. When the matter comes to this point, it has reached a deadlock.

Lu Yi decisively reported this situation to the emperor in an expedited manner.

After all, he is just a knife in the emperor's hand, and the emperor is the one who can make the decision.

Regarding Lu Yi's reaction, Wang Yue did not object. After all, after notifying the emperor, a lot of resistance could be alleviated.

……

After Lu Yi sent someone to send the letter, Wang Yue said seriously, "In fact, we still have another clue, and we can continue to investigate."

Hearing what Wang Yue said, Lu Yi thought of the Qingcheng faction. He nodded and said very seriously, "It just so happens that the big boat of the Lin family is coming soon, so let's use the big boat to entertain the Qingcheng faction."

After the two discussed it, Lu Yi began to arrange it, and Wang Yue was going to accompany Yuan Jinxia and Yue Lingshan. He felt that being with the two women was better than facing Lu Yi.

It's just that before he had time to leave, news came from the capital that the key clue, Zhai Lanye, would be escorted to the capital for investigation by people from the Ministry of Punishment.

It's not that the people from the Ministry of Punishment took the credit, it's that the 10 taels of silver made a big fuss, and the entire Yangzhou officials are now untrustworthy, and the emperor was furious.

The Ministry of Punishment is actually under a lot of pressure. They even want to take down all the officials in Yangzhou for questioning, but they don't have the guts to do so.

After all, Ming Dynasty's civil service system involves a lot, and you simply don't know how many people support an official.

There happened to be a key clue, and they wanted to try it, maybe their interrogation skills were even better.

Lu Yi looked at the official document in his hand, his face was a little cloudy, and he asked in a cold voice, "Brother Wang, do you think the idiots in the Ministry of Punishment are really willing to take the initiative to take on this matter?"

Wang Yue shook his head, and said very firmly, "It seems that the people behind the scenes value Zhai Lanye very much, and they want to take this opportunity to save people!"

Lu Yi nodded, and said with some embarrassment, "If some martial arts masters come, they will really be rescued if they don't know well during the escort."

Wang Yue saw that Lu Yi was in trouble, so he smiled and said, "I know how to disguise. We can find a woman and make up like Zhai Lanye. Those who want to come to rescue must be unprepared."

Lu Yi knew that Wang Yue's method was very dangerous. An ordinary woman dressed as Zhai Lanye might be in danger of life.

He immediately thought of Yue Lingshan, one of the two women beside Wang Yue!

Yue Lingshan was as tall as Zhai Lanye, if she could really look alike, as long as she stayed still in the cage, no one would be able to tell that they were not the same person.

He said to Wang Yue gratefully, "Then please trouble Brother Wang."

Wang Yue was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on. He quickly explained, "Lingshan and I are just ordinary friends, Xia Xia!"

Lu Yi immediately interrupted Wang Yue, and said firmly, "It's not important, the important thing is that if we send all our people to see Zhai Lanye, Lin Zhennan will be in danger."

Wang Yue frowned when he heard this. He used to always rely on his strength to overwhelm him, and he rarely needed to use his brains and tricks. Now he needs to use intrigue and tricks, and he is suddenly a little inexperienced.

Fortunately, Wang Yue has learned a lot of skills. After a little thought, he knew that there are a few tricks that can be used in ancient times. He said quickly, "In fact, I have a little research on Qimen Dunjia."

Lu Yi was thinking hard about how to get the best of both worlds, when he suddenly heard Wang Yue's words, he asked suspiciously, "Brother Wang, are you kidding me?"

Seeing that Lu Yi didn't believe it, Wang Yue said helplessly, "What I said is true. When I was in Wudang Mountain, I followed my master to guard the Buddhist scriptures pavilion. Later, I went to the palace and visited the royal study. After seeing a lot of authentic works of Qimen Dunjia, I finally realized something."

Seeing what Wang Yue said so seriously, Lu Yi still didn't believe it, so he asked Wang Yue to demonstrate.

Wang Yue had no choice but to set up a psychedelic array in the garden of Jin Yiwei's residence, and asked Lu Yi to send someone to test it.

Without hesitation, Lu Yi sent his confidant, Cen Fu, to experiment. As a result, he stood on a high rockery and watched Cen Fu turn around in place many times, but he couldn't get out.

It wasn't until this time that he believed Wang Yue's words, and he said seriously, "I used to think that Zhuge Liang's eight formation diagrams were fake, but now it seems that I have too little knowledge. Brother Wang is indeed a great talent." , you must join our Jinyiwei!"

Wang Yue was a little dumbfounded, a great talent, how could he join Jinyiwei?

However, he didn't bother with Lu Yi, so he discussed with Lu Yi to see how he could get through this difficulty at the least cost.

……

Because Lu Yi and Lin Zhennan knew each other, he directly told Lin Zhennan about the current situation, and said that he had a safe place, and asked Lin Zhennan and his wife to hide there first, and wait for them to come back.

Although Lin Zhennan was somewhat reluctant, after all, in his opinion, he had reconciled with the Qingcheng faction.

However, it is hard for him to say no to the son of the current commander of Jinyiwei. After all, the other side is eager to help because of the fact that he used to be Jinyiwei.

Therefore, Lin Zhennan took his wife, son and several servants, accompanied by Yuan Jinxia and Yang Chengwan, to live temporarily in a wooden house in the woods outside the city.

When Lin Zhennan saw the simple wooden house, he couldn't believe that someone really harmed him. After all, it seemed too unsafe for Lu Yi to choose this safe place.

But Lu Yi didn't have this awareness yet, so he said very seriously, "Uncle Lin, please wait here until Brother Wang or I come back, no matter what noises are made outside, you don't go to check."

Lin Zhennan saw that Lu Yi said so seriously, so he didn't refuse, but looked at his tone of voice, obviously still disapproving.

However, Wang Yue never persuaded him. He felt that with Lin Zhennan's ability, as long as he didn't have his wife and son holding him back, and he didn't face Yu Canghai, he still had a chance to escape.

And in the phantom array he arranged, it is not so easy to find the hiding person, so there is no need to worry so much.

Lu Yi was still worried, so he left a few guards in Jinyi to protect Mrs. Lin.He also felt that as long as Mrs. Lin was restrained from wandering around, the Lin family and his son probably wouldn't go far.

After making arrangements here, Lu Yi began to escort Zhai Lanye to the pier with great fanfare, ready to go north by boat.

It was just to prevent others from discovering that it was Zhai Lanye when he got out of the cell, but when he got into the prison car, he changed people quietly.

And Zhai Lanye was also in the team, but in the name of Yue Lingshan, he went to ride a carriage.

Other women might not be willing to do this kind of hard work, but Yue Lingshan thought it was very fun, she didn't mind at all, and seemed a little excited.
