Xichang Yamen.
Despite Lu Yun's coercion and inducement, many grain merchants were still very tough-talking. They kept their mouths shut and did not tell the truth.
However, their men couldn't resist the temptation and the punishment.
These people in the West Factory have mastered many interrogation methods and have created a huge psychological shadow on the prisoners. If they don't tell the truth, they will be skinned alive.
This is not an exaggeration, but a real thing.
Last night, all of them were arrested in a swarm, including these guys. Naturally, these guys didn't get the news in advance.
Without any professional training, they just say whatever they want. They really can't handle it anymore and don't care about you.
However, this only asked a small number of people, just a few people.
They just said that their boss and shopkeeper were indeed acting, and the food was not really taken away.
Or maybe they just knew a little bit of news, that is, the food had been robbed, but the shopkeeper didn't seem particularly sad.
In this way, the identity is still in progress, but some people are stubborn.
Lu Yun directly gave them the devastating news at this time.
"Everyone, don't hold on here, and don't think that someone will come to rescue you. Don't think too much. No one can come in casually in this West Factory of my father-in-law!"
"My father-in-law is quietly telling you that some people want me to let you go, but I will not let you go easily, and your Majesty will not let you go.
Don't wait for your reinforcements to come to help you. He can't protect himself now. "
"Think carefully, do you want to live or die with him? If you tell the truth, there is still a chance of survival. I can promise you that I can let you live!
I stick to my word and will not go back on my words easily. Instead, you should be careful. "
"Having said that, I hope you can think carefully about what to do next, instead of just shrinking back and hiding, leaving me to guess."
For a time, many people were confused after hearing his words, and at the same time they also didn't believe it.
As he said, there must be some people with deeper backgrounds among them.
Naturally, they all thought that this was not really about finding a way out for themselves. If the people behind them really couldn't help them, they should really think carefully about whether to betray them.
Of course, not all of the grain traders who were arrested were bad people, and not all of them were connected to certain people.
It's just that they are adapting to the prevailing situation, thinking that as food prices rise, so will their prices.
Lu Yun can still tell this. He only needs to ask his subordinates and look at their specific situation.
After another day like this, the people were still not released. At this moment, all the officials were confused. Didn't they already agree? Could it be that what he told was a lie?
Even Taifu Liu was extremely angry. After going to court, he said angrily: "Your Majesty!"
"Didn't the eunuch named Lu say that he would be released immediately? Why did this happen?"
"How come no one has come out yet? Can we keep those grain merchants locked up? Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible!"
Lu Yun was in the main hall. He glanced at it, swept it casually, and explained to Taifu Liu.
"Oh, Mr. Liu, what you said is wrong, isn't it? My father-in-law said that he would be released, but when did he say that he would be released immediately?"
"The person must be released, but I didn't say a specific time. So, Taifu Liu, don't blame me for not letting him go. We all agreed."
When Taifu Liu heard this, he was so angry that he almost spit out blood. How could he still play like this? But when I think about it carefully, it seems that I never said when I would release him!
This Lu Yun is simply abominable. How could such a shameless person exist?
When he thought about this, Taifu Liu became very angry. He even wanted to rush forward and beat this guy up severely.
"you you you!"
"This guy named Lu, you are shameless!"
"Obviously it was you who said you wanted to let him go, but now you are playing this little trick."
Lu Yun spread his hands and looked like a scoundrel and explained to Taifu Liu.
"Master Liu, Taifu Liu, I did not say when I would release him. Don't force me like this. He must be released. He cannot be locked up in our yamen all the time!
After all, what should we do if we let them take over all the little we have in our Yamen? "
"you you you!"
Taifu Liu was indeed very angry. He took a breath, and his breathing seemed a little uneven.
Lu Yun, on the other hand, looked indifferent.
He doesn't care about anything, he can say whatever he likes.
"Okay, okay, then let your Majesty come and judge. What should be done about this matter? You said it yourself, and now you don't admit it."
Taifu Liu then looked at Liang Jing and said, "Your Majesty, this man named Lu is so shameless. He dares to play such a little trick. Your Majesty, you can judge him. He clearly said he wanted to release him, but he still refuses to admit it."
Liang Jing smiled softly, "Master, Eunuch Lu did indeed say that he would be released, but he did not specify a specific time. You can release him whenever you want.
Wouldn't it be nice to let them suffer in prison and let them experience this kind of life? I don't think it's okay. "
For a moment, Taifu Liu realized that His Majesty must have already discussed this with the eunuch.
Damn it!
Is it possible that there is really nothing I can do?
No, this is absolutely not possible!
When he thought of this, Taifu Liu became a little angry.
It's just that His Majesty is not on his side now. This eunuch named Lu is too arrogant, and it seems that he should really think of a solution.
…
After leaving the court.
Sitting on the carriage, Taifu Liu said coldly, "Damn Eunuch Lu, everything is because of him. All my plans have been extinguished, all because of this man named Lu."
"As long as he dies, everything will be solved. It's really difficult to just want him to die. There is a great master beside him."
Next to Taifu Liu, there was a middle-aged man with a cold expression sitting, and he said coldly.
"This eunuch is indeed difficult to get close to under the protection of the Grand Master, but we can poison him, so that he can be poisoned to death."
"Taifu Liu, I wonder if this eunuch has any hobbies, or if he doesn't have any chance to get close to him, so he can take this opportunity to poison him."
"This, I have to look for it carefully."
