"Magistrate Zhong, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding?"
Xie Xuan and Ying Wu had already come down, but Gao Xiaoyu was ordered by Ying Wu to stay in the private room and act according to the situation.
Xie Xuandao: "Mr. Zhong, Lin Feng is an envoy of the Qin State, and he is on a special trip to the Jin State. Why is he colluding with me? You are so indiscriminate, but it is very bad. What's more, how can my Xie family harm the Jin State?" ?”
The magistrate of Jinling County is named Zhong Zhongkang, who was promoted by the Xie family, and now he wants to arrest him.
Something is obviously wrong.
Zhong Zhongkang looked calm and said calmly: "Xie Xuan, I have also received a report, so I want you to go to prison to cooperate. As for Lin Feng, he also has to go to prison. If after verification, it is determined You had no intention of overthrowing the Jin State, so you will be acquitted. If the evidence of crime is conclusive, deal with it as you should."
"Go up, take down Lin Feng."
Zhong Zhongkang gave the order directly.
"Who dares?"
Ying Wu stood in front of Lin Feng and said, "We are members of the Great Qin Mission. Who dares to harm my young master?"
Lin Feng stood up in one step and stood in front of Ying Wu again. He approached Yingwu and whispered a few words. Then, he saw Yingwu retreat and no longer stop him.
Lin Feng looked at Zhong Zhongkang, with a guess in his mind, and even a plan to deal with it, and said sternly: "Mr. Zhong, I am the official envoy of the Great Qin Mission, and I am here on behalf of the Great Qin. I don't care what reports you have received, Or are you deliberately looking for trouble? Please remember that it is easier to please God than to send him away."
Zhong Zhongkang snorted and scolded: "Your threats cannot scare me."
"Someone, take it away."
Zhong Zhongkang ordered again.
The soldiers stepped forward and escorted Xie Xuan and Lin Feng away.
Ying Wu was not taken away, and he went straight back to the private room. At this time, Gao Xiaoyu was a little panicked and asked: "Master Ying Wu, the young master has been arrested, what should we do?"
Yingwu said: "Young Master has arranged some things to investigate the Xie family's attitude towards Qin, as well as the situation of Xie Jun and Xie Xuan. After investigating the general situation clearly, we will go to see Young Master in prison. Young Master has his own arrangements. The other party does not dare to kill anyone. Kill, after all, the young master is an envoy of the Qin Dynasty. If you want to kill someone, it is not to put the person in jail, nor is the county magistrate to take action."
When Gao Xiaoyu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The two quietly left Qifeng Tower.
Nowadays, Qifeng Tower is in a state of shock and there is a lot of discussion. However, these matters had nothing to do with Lin Feng. He and Xie Xuan were escorted to the prison of Jinling County Government and imprisoned directly.
The cell where the two were held was quite clean and there was no harsh treatment.
Xie Xuan looked puzzled and asked, "Brother Xian, what happened today is so weird."
Lin Feng said: "What's weird about it?"
Xie Xuan said in a deep voice: "Brother, you are an envoy of a country. How could you, a mere magistrate of Jinling County, dare to come and arrest people? It is ridiculous to say that you have been reported and exposed. The most important thing is that Zhong Zhongkang was promoted by the Xie family. people."
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "So, someone is doing something secretly."
Xie Xuandao: "Who is it?"
Lin Feng said: "The biggest possibility is your good brother Xie Jun."
Xie Xuan frowned and said, "It's impossible. My brother is upright and always impartial. Even this time, when it comes to Xifengzui's management, it is beneficial to the Xie family. Why would he interfere with it?"
Lin Feng said: "Who knows about family disputes? I only know that the emperor of Jin never ordered to arrest people, but instead the county magistrate dared to arrest people. How audacious."
Xie Xuan sighed: "Brother Xie, I have burdened you."
In a word, he took over the responsibility.
Zhong Zhongkang is from the Xie family. Now Zhong Zhongkang's appointment must be the arrangement of the Xie family. Especially when Lin Feng went south to Jin, apart from Lu Yi and Gu Changgeng, only Xie Jun knew about it.
Lu Yi and Gu Changgeng obviously didn't know Lin Feng's purpose based on the way they spoke at the time. Therefore, only Xie Xuan and Xie Jun, who had received Xie Xuan's report, knew about it.
With such reasoning, the reason for the whole thing becomes very clear.
Xie Xuan said again: "Xian brother, this time I not only dragged you down, but also put you in jail. There may even be a life-and-death crisis in the future, which may even cause your mission to fail. I will contact the outside as soon as possible to let you out. "
Lin Feng said: "There will be no life or death crisis."
Xie Xuan said seriously: "Why?"
Lin Feng said: "The magistrate of Jinling County does not dare to overstep the handling of a country's envoys. The current order for Zhong Zhongkang to control me is probably just to delay time and detain me first. The Jin State is about to send troops, just imagine, detaining me for a month or two , the news is blocked. What impact will it have if you let me out after the deal is done? In the eyes of some people, maybe Daqin will not be able to stop it by then."
Ding!
Xie Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
This matter is all his responsibility.
Xie Xuan was even more ashamed and said: "According to this statement, it is even more my fault. My original intention was to benefit both Da Qin and my Xie family, but I didn't expect that it would put my dear brother in trouble."
Lin Feng said confidently: "Brother Xie, don't worry, it's not a big deal. The other party doesn't dare to kill me, even if it's not a dilemma. It's just that if the current matter develops to this point, it may affect the Xie family. My next operational arrangements will also be If the originally peaceful situation changes, Brother Xie must be mentally prepared."
Xie Xuandao: "My dear brother, just make arrangements. The Xie family deserves all this."
The expression on his face was even more depressed.
In the Xie family, only Xie Jun took action. If his father Xie Chong had taken action, it would not have been such a big deal.
Lin Feng waited quietly. Time passed. An hour and a half passed in the blink of an eye. The cell became dark, and he even looked outside through the window. Night fell and it was approaching evening.
From beginning to end, no one came.
Lin Feng's expression was even calmer. It was absolutely impossible for Xie Jun to hold him back!
He will make Xie Jun regret it.
While Lin Feng was waiting, there was a sound of footsteps and Ying Wu came in. There is no confidentiality in such a prison, especially although Zhong Zhongkang said he had arrested someone, the person guarding him was the jailer below.
Yingwu opened the way with money and successfully arrived outside Lin Feng's cell. The jailer who led the way reminded: "It can't take too long. Leave as soon as possible after saying this, otherwise it will be difficult for us."
Ying Wu said: "Thank you very much."
The jailer nodded, turned and left.
Ying Wu looked at Lin Feng who was sitting peacefully and said, "Master, we have found out the situation outside. The Jin State has been mobilizing and recruiting soldiers to prepare for the conquest of Qin. Many people know this."
"The person who took the lead in contacting the Xia Kingdom was Xie Chong, the Minister of Civil Affairs. He is now making arrangements and is responsible for the general arrangements. However, when the envoys from Great Qin came, Xie Chong did not express his position after the news came out."
"On the contrary, we at Black Ice Platform found out that Xie Jun had interviewed Zhong Zhongkang. After the young master was imprisoned, Zhong Zhongkang went to Xie's house again and met Xie Jun."
"The current judgment of Heibingtai is that Xie Jun made the decision without authorization and ordered Zhong Zhongkang to arrest him."
"One more thing involves Xie Jun's character. On the surface, this person is upright and polite. In fact, Xie Jun is jealous of talents, very narrow-minded, extremely conceited, and even more arrogant."
"Xie Jun is very dictatorial in the Xie family, especially among the younger generation."
Ying Wu said: "Xie Chong is old and doesn't care about many things in the Xie family. He only cares about matters in the court. Xie Jun is in charge of the Xie family. Xie Jun has the final say in everything."
Lin Feng said: "I understand."
Ying Wu said slowly: "Master, what should we do next?"
A flash of light flashed across Lin Feng's eyes and he said: "I have told Zhong Zhongkang before that it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. It is very simple to invite me into the prison, but it is not easy to ask me to leave."
"Ying Wu, you go and make arrangements, mobilize our people, and publicize throughout Jinling City that I am leading the Great Qin envoy to Jinling to meet with the Emperor of Jin. However, the Jin State cannot help but think that it is unreasonable to endanger the Jin State." Reason to put me in jail.”
"The focus of the propaganda is that the Jin State is a state of etiquette and a heavenly state that is no less inferior to the Xia State, but it punishes people without teaching them, does not even receive envoys, and jails people without asking the reason. It is really puzzling."
"This is not the way Jin treats guests."
"It's not the way to have diplomatic relations with a superior country."
"I am here on behalf of the State of Qin. If the State of Jin wants to arrest people or even kill people, it should be upright and upright, and should not be underhanded. So the key is to use etiquette to criticize, saying that the emperor of Jin does not pay attention to diplomatic etiquette."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
Ying Wu bowed and responded.
Lin Feng waved his hand, Ying Wu turned and left.
Xie Xuan looked serious and said slowly: "Xian brother, you have made the matter bigger. When the public opinion boils, the emperor will have to meet you. However, the emperor may also be biased against you because of this matter. I will not be interested in your next conversation. It is quite unfavorable. So is this matter really suitable for making a big fuss?"
A smile flashed across Lin Feng's face and he said: "The result I want is to make a big fuss and make the matter known to the public. In fact, I just want the emperor to meet me. As for the emperor's displeasure, it won't have much impact."
"As for Xie Jun, he wants to trap me, which is a good idea. Unfortunately, I will not follow this plan."
"I directly promote public opinion and overturn the table to see how he ends up?"
There was a stern look in Lin Feng's eyes.
I will not offend others unless they offend me. If Xie Jun wants to deal with him, Lin Feng will not show mercy.
hiss! !
Xie Xuan took a breath.
He was shocked that Lin Feng's intention had already reached this point and even wanted to meet the emperor in court.
Xie Xuandao: "Xian brother, I think your intention may not succeed."
Lin Feng said confidently: "The Jin State's attack on the Qin Dynasty seems to be mobilizing soldiers, but in fact, the Jin State may not be very willing to conquer. I am sure of this matter. Even if the situation is unfavorable, I will rely on my own words to convince everyone in the court. shake."
"In short, only by meeting the emperor can things turn around. As for the alliance with the Xie family, brother, the previous agreement between you and me is invalid. You can't decide the Xie family now, and the Xie family has no sincerity."
"well……"
Xie Xuan sighed.
He was very dissatisfied with Xie Jun. This eldest brother who replaced his father in charge of the family was so disappointing that he actually used such methods to frame him.
He even wanted to hold Lin Feng back.
As everyone knows, this is tantamount to making enemies of the Xie family. Xie Jun didn't know how powerful Lin Feng was, but Xie Xuan knew it.
Lin Feng is by no means an ordinary person.
It's a pity that the matter has reached this point and he can't solve it. He can only watch the situation worsen and see that the situation is not conducive to the Xie family.
