This bow, I am sincerely convinced.
If it weren't for Lu Chen, I'm afraid he would still be lying on the bed now.
Moreover, the body is gradually losing its functions, and one day it may really be possible to die.
"After getting up early tomorrow, your Excellency will recover. At that time, Lu Chen will ask for something important. I hope you will agree to it!"
Lu Chen was not a man of ink. He came to rescue the magistrate with a purpose and did not want to deceive him.
Moreover, the prefect cares about the people and is not a corrupt official who does not distinguish between right and wrong.
So I didn't intend to hide it from him.
"Brother Lu, there's no need to be polite."
"As long as it is within Yan's power and does not endanger the people, it is his duty to do so!"
The prefect liked Lu Chen's approach very much.
No pretense.
Talk about things when they matter, and don't be a hypocrite. He is very angry with him.
"Well, thank you in advance, Master Yan!"
Lu Chen bowed and turned to leave!
"Brother Lu, I have arranged a guest room. Let's stay in Yan's Mansion tonight!"
The prefect's wife was very considerate. Seeing that it was getting late, she had already prepared a room for Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was stunned and looked at the magistrate.
"Brother Lu, don't refuse, have a good rest after a hard day's work!"
Looking at him like this, I already knew it.
Lu Chen was not polite and agreed immediately.
The next day, early morning.
The Yan Mansion burst into laughter.
Just because the magistrate got up early and visited the entire Yan Mansion.
Chat with the servants, chat in the kitchen, and reminisce with the guards.
Finally, he came to the door of Lu Chen's room.
"Brother Lu, are you up?"
inside the house.
Lu Chen was just about to wash up when he heard the call from the prefect.
So he hurriedly opened the door to greet him.
"It seems that the magistrate has recovered, so congratulations!"
"My recovery depends entirely on Brother Lu's wonderful hand in rejuvenating me. Don't be humble."
Then he directly pulled Lu Chen out and walked towards the lobby.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Master Yan and his family all present.
In Lu Chen's shocked eyes, he actually bowed to him.
"I can't do it, I can't do it!"
Lu Chen hurriedly stepped forward and helped them up one by one.
"Master Yan, what is this?"
"Isn't it just bad luck to Lu Chen!"
The Lord Magistrate stepped forward with a smile and held Lu Chen's hand: "Brother Lu, please save my life, and I will be reborn with kindness. I can bear this bow!"
Then with a wave of his hand, he summoned a servant and brought a wooden tray to Lu Chen.
"One hundred taels of silver, a little kindness, I hope to accept it!"
Lu Chen stared blankly at the white money, saying that he was not moved would be a lie.
But he knew exactly what he wanted.
So under the surprised gaze of the prefect, he pushed the silver back.
Then he bowed to the magistrate: "Lu Chen is brave, please ask the magistrate to redress the injustice of the people of Jinchuan!"
The magistrate was shocked and hurriedly bent down to help Lu Chen up.
"Brother Lu, what are you doing?"
"Speak slowly if you have something to say!"
So, at breakfast, Lu Chen told them all the bad things that He Zhong and Hong Gui had done over the years.
"Asshole!"
After hearing this, Mr. Yan slammed the table angrily and almost fainted without a breath.
"This noble Hong has such contempt for the law and is so full of evil that it would not be a pity to be cut into pieces with a thousand swords!"
"There is also the corrupt official He Zhong, who preys on the common people and harms his neighbors. The party in power sucking the blood of the common people is worse than a beast!"
"Brother Lu, I will strictly control this matter!"
This was what Lu Chen was waiting for.
The next moment he stood up and bowed down: "Thank you, Mr. Yan, for redressing the injustice of the people!"
"Time is running out. Hong Gui is about to be interrogated and beheaded. Please come with me to set off immediately, otherwise we will die without evidence and General He Zhong will still be at large!"
Master Yan nodded heavily when he heard this.
But Mrs. Yan on the side was a little worried: "Sir, you have just recovered from a serious illness. I'm afraid if you are tired from traveling and traveling."
Lu Chen quickly replied: "Madam, please don't worry!"
"The hard work of traveling and traveling might affect others' health, but Master Yan is an exception!"
"oh?"
This time, even Master Yan was a little surprised.
"Brother Lu, why did you say this?"
"Is it possible that I am different from ordinary people?"
Lu Chen smiled confidently.
"I am quite tired from the long journey. The main reason is that the bumps along the way shake my flesh and blood."
Master Yan nodded.
"Yes, that's exactly what it is!"
Lu Chen continued: "Senior Yan's disease requires exercise the most. Horseback riding can promote muscle movement and soothe the veins. It is not only harmless, but beneficial!"
"If you have time in the future, Master Yan can ride more horses. There is no chance of this disease recurring again!"
After listening to Lu Chen's explanation, Master Yan suddenly became enlightened.
"Okay, okay!"
After saying "yes" three times in a row, Mr. Yan's face turned red with excitement.
"Brother Lu is so noble and upright. He speaks so generously and outspokenly. Mr. Yan is ashamed!"
Afterwards, the guests enjoyed themselves!
After breakfast, Mr. Yan personally selected two good horses, which were said to be able to be driven back in half a day.
Lu Chen was overjoyed and naturally agreed.
But just as he was about to set off, Lu Chen stopped Master Yan.
"Master Yan, I don't think it's appropriate to go like this!"
Master Yan was a little confused. He looked around and found nothing. He looked at Lu Chen and said, "Brother Lu, what's wrong?"
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Then He Zhong has been entrenched in Jinchuan City for many years and has a deep foundation."
"Both the Yamen and Hong Gui have their minions. I'm worried that when the treacherous plot is exposed, they will become angry and harm us!"
When Master He heard this, he immediately laughed.
"Brother Lu is worrying too much!"
"I am an official of the imperial court and hold an important position. How dare I personally judge He Zhong to be rude!"
However, Lu Chen was worried.
"Sir Yan, Jinchuan City is located in a desolate place and the people's customs are fierce!"
"He Zhong is a local coward. If it is really the crime of beheading, do you think he will not resist?"
One sentence stopped Master Yan.
He thought for a moment and felt that Lu Chen's worries were reasonable.
"Then according to your words, what should we do?"
Lu Chen looked at Yan's mansion and asked in a low voice: "I wonder if there are any martial arts masters in Master Yan's mansion?"
Normally, in ancient times, some martial arts masters would be enshrined in the imperial palace.
Their duty is not to commit rebellion but to protect the lives of officials.
After all, when you serve as an official, you will always offend some people.
If these people seek revenge, they will be hard to guard against.
Therefore, those high officials have always had the habit of worshiping martial arts masters.
When Master Yan heard this, he immediately understood Lu Chen's intention.
"It never happened before!"
"But after I got sick, several martial arts people suddenly came."
"Claims that he was favored by me and came here to repay the favor."
"After checking later, it was confirmed that it was true, so I kept it."
"I don't know, can it be useful?"
Lu Chen was overjoyed, looked at Master Yan and asked, "Where are they now and how are their martial arts skills?"
Master Yan ordered the servants beside him: "Please come out, Third Aunt!"
"yes!"
Regarding this title, Lu Chen expressed confusion.
But when the third aunt and others that Mr. Yan mentioned came out, he was completely confused.
"this."
"Master Yan, are you not kidding me?"
Looking at the group of four, three old and one young, Lu Chen felt for a moment that Master Yan was teasing him.
