He still remembered the characteristics of the man named Lu. His neck was a little long and his eyes were a little protruding. When he looked at people, he looked a bit like a vulture. It looks like it will come up and take a bite of meat suddenly.
The commander of the Imperial City Department, Lu Shaoting, was one of the emperor's famous ruthless police officers.
There have been no notable achievements in the past two years, but in the imperial examination fraud case that shocked the government and the public three years ago, Lu Shaoting strangled the crown prince to death in front of the people on Zhuque Street, which made most officials regard him as Frightened by the news.
After Lu Shaoting strangled the crown prince to death, the emperor gave him fifty sticks, demoted him and poured half a night of incense on him, and then still let him return to the imperial city as the commander-in-chief.
One can imagine how much the emperor valued Lu Shaoting.
Zhu Sanlang poked Yao Erlang: "Why are you so loud? Are you afraid of him? Can Lu Shaoting be as scary as Tamutu? But now Tamutu has been arrested by us too?"
Yao Erlang lowered his voice: "Young Master, you have no objection?"
Zhu Sanlang shook his head: "My father and I were guarding outside the palace. The young master told me this when he came out."
Going all the way with the man named Lu gave me goosebumps all over my body just thinking about it. The Imperial City Inspector is the emperor's lackey. All affairs in the world were reported to the emperor's ears through these Chazi.
Yao Erlang shook his body: "Then we are not allowed to speak and act as we please along the way?"
"We are not afraid of the shadow slanting. We say what we should say and do what we should do. Why are we afraid of him doing it?"
Zhu Sanlang said confidently.
But when Lu Shaoting led twenty imperial city inspectors over on a tall horse early the next morning, Zhu Sanlang couldn't help but whisper to Yao Erlang: "This guy looks much more difficult to deal with than Tamutu."
Lu Shaoting didn't say anything when he arrived. He just sat on his horse and watched coldly as they loaded their luggage into the car.
Mu Ting and others arrived empty-handed, but left with two cars full.
In comparison, the small baggage placed on the horse by Lu Shaoting and others seemed a bit insignificant.
Lu Shaoting said nothing, but Zhu Sanlang could already feel his contempt.
With contempt and disdain, Lu Shaoting spoke: "I didn't expect that Prince Mu has quite a lot of luggage."
"Yes, they are all rewards from the Holy One. The grace and rewards from the Holy One cannot be left casually in the capital. They must all be moved back to Yanzhou." Yao Erlang answered very quickly, feeling that he was very clever.
Lu Shaoting just raised his eyebrows.
But when Chen Ze and Counselor Zhu walked out together, Lu Shaoting looked at the two of them for a long time. Until Chen Ze asked him with a half-smile, "Commander Lu is looking at the two of us like this. Is there something wrong with us?"
"No." Lu Shaoting answered quickly, "I'm just curious about what Wu Dehou's chief of staff looks like."
He is quite generous.
But when Mu Ting met Qin Xiangxiang at the city gate, Lu Shaoting's face was obviously disgusting. And when Princess Huizhen arrived with two carriages and eighteen female bodyguards, Lu Shaoting's face immediately became extremely disgusting.
This mighty team is really conspicuous.
Qin Wanwan glanced at Lu Shaoting, and in a rare moment of quarreling with Qin Xiangxiang, "I know this Commander Lu. He is Song Mingjie's distant cousin. I heard that he was rejected by the young lady twice."
oh? Is there such an anecdote?
Qin Xiangxiang asked: "Why did you break off the engagement?"
"It's because he looked so fierce. When the young lady saw him after getting engaged, she was frightened to tears." Qin Wanwan knew quite a lot.
As soon as he finished speaking, Princess Huizhen got out of the car and wanted to say a few words to her sworn brother. She held up the hem of her skirt and suddenly saw Lu Shaoting standing aside with a fierce look. She was so frightened that she took a step back: "Brother, that man is so scary!"
An unknown smile appeared on Mu Ting's lips, and he said to Lu Shaoting: "My adopted sister is a little timid. Please forgive me, Commander Lu."
Lu Shaoting sneered: "Prince Mu's journey must be busy enough. However, Lu must remind Mu Shizi that if there is any accident on the road, Lu will not care about anyone else except the safety of Prince Mu. "
Mu Ting said: "That's natural."
He reined in his horse and wanted to walk to Qin Xiangxiang's carriage and say a few words to Qin Xiangxiang, but he held back in the end.
The team left the city smoothly in a mighty manner. Before they passed the Shili Pavilion, the sky was filled with dust behind them. Yao Erlang reined in his horse and took a closer look: "Prince Mu, someone seems to be chasing us."
"Mrs. Qin, wait for my wife!"
Qin Xiangxiang heard this sentence very clearly.
This voice seemed familiar.
It was Qin Wanwan who reminded her: "It's Chunlu, Cui Qingqing's maid."
Cui Qingqing is really chasing after her.
Cui Qingqing caught up with them and was extremely excited: "Madam Qin, I want to go to Yanzhou too!"
Qin Xiangxiang looked at the two carriages she brought and was speechless: "Ms. Cui, we are not going to enjoy the mountains and rivers."
"Of course I don't have to! Places like Yanzhou are bitter cold places. That's why I made up my mind to go to Yanzhou and see for myself what the scene is like."
Cui Qingqing was very excited.
Lu Shaoting's face was extremely stinky.
Qin Xiangxiang was helpless: "It's a thousand miles along the way, and there are countless poor mountains and rivers. Madam Cui, don't be impulsive."
"I have brought the guardian with the most powerful martial arts in the family! I will never trouble you when the time comes!" Cui Qingqing became anxious and swore to the heavens and the earth, and finally said, "Even if you don't take me with you, I will Will follow you."
The little lady acted like a rogue, which made people helpless.
Mu Ting's expression became solemn and he said, "Ms. Cui, going here is not a child's play..."
"I can save it, I can save it!" Cui Qingqing responded quickly.
"Young Master, let Madam Cui join us." Chen Ze suddenly spoke.
Cui Qingqing gratefully handed over to Chen Zeyi: "Counselor Chen is so generous!" After saying that, she quickly got into the carriage.
"Uncle Chen." Mu Ting glanced at Chen Ze helplessly.
Uncle Chen has not spoken to Mu Ting since the emperor granted him a marriage to Madam Qin.
Chen Ze said: "There are already so many women in the convoy, so I don't care about Lady Cui and her group."
Lu Shaoting's face was extremely disgusting: "Prince Mu, we will not slow down just because there are women in the team."
"That's natural." Mu Ting had no intention of slowing down at first.
A little hiccup does not affect the speed of the team.
For more than thirty miles from the capital, there are flat official roads, but once you pass Sansanli Pavilion, you begin to enter a slightly rugged mountain road.
When we arrived at Thirty Mile Pavilion, the sun was shining brightly, and both the people and horses were already a little sleepy.
"Commander Lu, please rest for a while at Sansili Pavilion and replenish some food and water before leaving," Mu Ting said.
Lu Shaoting had no objection. Although he was in a hurry, he was not so tired as to make his brother as tired as a dog.
Before coming, he also asked his brothers to prepare three days of dry food in case of emergencies.
If you are on your way, just carry a water bag and eat some dry food.
Lu Shaoting had just taken a dry pancake and was about to put it into his mouth when Qin Xiangxiang said with a smile: "I made a lot of pancakes and cooked a pot of porridge. It's still a little hot now. Let's eat while it's hot."
Yao Erlang suddenly became energetic: "I haven't eaten the food cooked by the lady for a long time, and I actually miss it a little."
Qin Wanwan curled her lips, she could smell the pancakes all the way. Who doesn’t take any of the food with them when they go out? Instead, they bring half a truck full of ingredients! It’s as if you can cook in the stove as soon as you get out of the car!
