Lu Qin stopped shouting almost instantly, and curled up his legs to avoid it. Unexpectedly, when he raised the sharp blade, he heard the fabric slapping, and there was a cool feeling between Lu Qin's legs, and there was even a hint of thorns on the vital part. It hurt, and he looked pale and stiff, not daring to move.
"Can't you hear what I said?" Xiao Yan lowered his cold eyes slightly.
"I……"
Lu Qin wanted to hold on and refused to give in, but the stinging pain in his vital parts made him afraid. He wanted to give in but he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. With so many servants of the Lu family watching around him, if he lowered his head like this gelding, he would go to How will he be able to gain a foothold in the house, and what will outsiders think of him?
Xiao Yan raised his lips: "It seems that Mr. Xiao Lu cannot understand human speech."
"Xiao Yan, you...ah!!!"
Lu Qin suddenly screamed without saying a word, but the thin sword in Xiao Yan's hand suddenly stabbed forward. He turned his hand, and when the blood spattered, it seemed as if a ball of flesh and blood was thrown out and landed directly on the ground. At the feet of Lu Chongyuan, who had just rushed over.
Lu Qin's frightened screams echoed throughout the Lu family's front yard, and Lu Chongyuan said sharply: "Xiao Yan!!"
"Is Lu Zhongshu here?"
Xiao Yan turned to look at Lu Chongyuan, who looked much older in just a few days. The tip of his sword fell on Lu Qin's shirt and rubbed against it. He looked like he was chopping melons and vegetables in his back garden, which made the Qian family The father and son all felt inexplicably cold and subconsciously closed their legs.
Lu Zhao, who was on the side, didn't see clearly what the thrown ball was. He just thought that Xiao Yan really sent Lu Qin to be an eunuch. He turned pale and said in horror: "Father, Xiao Yan has crippled his second brother. He , he destroyed the lifeblood of his second brother..."
Lu Chongyuan almost fainted when he looked at the mass of flesh and blood at his feet, and the second son of the Lu family also turned pale.
Xiao Yan raised his lips: "Don't talk nonsense, Lu Langling. Although I am a eunuch, I am not good at palace torture. If Lu Langling is interested in entering the palace, I have capable people under me and I will ensure that you will not leave any trace."
Lu Zhao froze, but before he could say anything, Xiao Yan raised the tip of his sword and landed on the other leg of Lu Qin, who was screaming.
"But I am familiar with this Lingchi."
He smiled faintly, as if falling into the deep mist, his phoenix eyes were captivating: "Master Xiaolu has fair skin and tender flesh, unlike this governor who is neither male nor female and can't stand the torment. I think you should be able to cut him in pieces more times."
As soon as the words fell and the sword rose, the meat flew away like thin slices.
When his clothes were stained with blood, turbid liquid flowed out from between his legs. Lu Qin, who was born in a noble family, had never suffered such pain. He screamed miserably, not caring about the previous filthy words and thinking about his face. His face was full of tears. Howling with tears.
"I was wrong, I was wrong...Father, Father, save me!!!"
Lu Chongyuan only felt that his hands were shaking, not only because Xiao Yan had never hurt Lu Qin's vitality, but also because he dared to hurt people in the Lu family. He took a deep breath and ignored the screaming Lu Qin, only watching Xiao Yan's words. Dun: "Does Governor Xiao bring the black-armored guards through the mansion? Is there any imperial decree?"
"What imperial edict is needed to lock up a fugitive who conspired to rebel?"
Lu Chongyuan's expression changed instantly.
Xiao Yan's eyes were cold: "Song Hong, the Duke of Song Dynasty, colluded with the traitors and took in the traitors. It has been found out. After being reported by people from the Song family, Lu Zhinian, the third son of the Lu family, knew about this a long time ago, but he concealed it and did not report it. The crime cannot be forgiven."
"The governor arrests fugitives in accordance with the law, and the black-armored guards have the power to arrest them. Lu Zhongshu, you are also a veteran of His Majesty's three dynasties, but you must not be like Mr. Xiao Lu and commit crimes without knowing what is right and wrong, trying to prevent the governor from arresting the criminals. "
"you!"
Lu Zhao glared angrily: "Father, he lied. It's not like this at all. He led people into the house and started fighting when they disagreed. The second brother didn't stop him at all. He came up and attacked the second brother..."
Cang Lang sneered at the side: "Lu Langling, please don't accuse our governor unjustly. Our governor only arrests traitors in accordance with the law. If the Lu family hadn't resisted with words and deeds with sharp weapons, and even insulted the governor with filthy words, my governor would be like this." How can such a gentle and kind person do something so easily?"
Lu Zhao almost said shit about your mother, Xiao Yan is gentle and kind, he is kind as hell! He said angrily: "In full view of everyone, he injured my second brother, how can you let you talk nonsense?!"
"All eyes?" Xiao Yan turned around.
Qian Baokun said quietly: "I came late and didn't see anything."
Qian Qingran, the eldest brother of the Qian family, said without changing his expression: "Governor Xiao entered the mansion according to the rules. It was the Lu family who took the offense first. I saw it with my own eyes."
The second and third brothers of the Qian family nodded in unison: "We saw it too."
Qian Qingyu, the second brother of the Qian family, did not forget to add fuel to the fire and looked angrily: "Today we came to settle accounts with Lu Zhinian because of my sister's humiliation. Unexpectedly, the Lu family bullied others and actually wanted to kill us. If Governor Xiao hadn't brought people here in time, I'm afraid that They are all dead."
"We saw with our own eyes that Governor Xiao brought the black-armored guards in just to lock up Lu Zhinian. It was the Lu family who stepped forward to stop him. Mr. Lu insulted Governor Xiao with filthy words and tried to frame Governor Xiao, so he was restrained by Governor Xiao. Come on, everyone in the Qian family can testify to this matter, Lu Langling, don’t even think about unjustly accusing Governor Xiao!”
Qian Baokun glanced at his second son: Let him speak. I didn't let him speak so well. I just hate Xiao Yan and hold him back. What is he going to do? !
Xiao Yan was amused by Qian Qingyu and laughed. He raised his eyes and looked at Lu Zhao, whose face was turning green and white: "So when Lu Langling said in public, did he refer to you and Lu Qin, or to you, the Lu family?" ?”
"Although my governor and the Lu family have old grudges, Mr. Lu has gone too far to frame him up like this."
"You... you..."
Seeing them confusing right and wrong in the clear sky, and everyone saying that he was framed, Lu Zhao was so angry that he almost lost his breath and said anxiously: "Father, they are lying. Second brother, please say something, it's Xiao Yan Hurt you..."
"enough."
How could Lu Chongyuan not see that Xiao Yan and the Qian family were telling lies? Xiao Yan and Qian Baokun got involved at some point, and the Qian family, who had never been involved in such things, actually did it for Xiao. I hate being the enemy of the Lu family.
He interrupted what Lu Zhao was about to argue and looked at Xiao Yan with a cold expression: "Then what does Governor Xiao want to do now? Kill other members of the Lu family?"
Seeing that Lu Chongyuan was not agitated, Xiao Yan chuckled. Sure enough, this old and cunning fox was far beyond the comparison of fools like Lu Zhao. He took back the sword that was pressed against Lu Qin's leg, and the tip of the sword "accidentally" brought up a bloodstain. Lu Qin screamed, and his hand shook.
The blood stains on the thin sword instantly fell to the ground, and the sword was spotless.
"Don't be ridiculous, Lu Zhongshu. This governor is a stickler for rules. If the Lu family hand over the traitor, I will leave immediately."
Lu Chongyuan looked at Lu Zhao: "Where are the people?"
Lu Zhao said anxiously: "Father, Sanlang cannot be a traitor. He doesn't know anything about Song Shulan, let alone the personal affairs of Song Guogong. Xiao Yan, even if you want to harm my son, you should find a suitable reason. Song Guogong How can you tell others about something so secretive?"
Xiao Yan raised his lips: "Of course others won't, but everyone in the capital doesn't know that Mr. Lu Sanlang used to have a good relationship with Song Jinxiu. The two had a close personal relationship and talked about everything. After the Song family was imprisoned, Mr. Lu Sanlang still missed him. Old friends, are you visiting the Song Dynasty Duke's mansion at night?"
"You!" Lu Zhao's face was full of anger: "Everyone knows that my son and Song Jinxiu have broken up a long time ago..."
"That was after something happened to the Song family. Seeing that there was no future for him in the Duke of Song's palace, Mr. Lu Sanlang did not hesitate to break off relations with Song Jinxiu in order to protect his own safety. But before that, he went in and out of the Duke of Song's palace from time to time, and even interacted with the rebels. We have a close relationship with each other. We went to Mount Qishan together and went boating on the lake."
Xiao Yan's voice was not loud when he spoke, but Lu Zhao could not distinguish every word he spoke.
"Song Jinxiu personally identified it. Lu Zhinian knew everything about the Song family, and he had long known that Song Shulan had a different life experience and was not the daughter of the second wife of the Song family, but he covered it up for her in an attempt to hide the truth. Although it is not as heinous as Song Hong's crime of colluding with the rebels, it is still a crime worthy of the crime. "
Canglang took out a small roll of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Zhao: "This is the confession written by the criminal Song Jinxiu. Can Lu Lang please read it?"
Lu Zhao grabbed it and unfolded it, revealing the Qingjun font inside.
He had seen Song Jinxiu's handwriting, so he naturally recognized that the handwriting was indeed Song Jinxiu's. But when he saw clearly how Song Jinxiu "testified" Lu Zhinian inside, he was so angry that he was shaking all over. Before he could say anything, Canglang took the thing back. .
"Lu Lang ordered you to be careful. This is evidence. If you mess up the villain, you will have to go to prison to find the Song family's eldest son and rewrite it."
Cang Lang handed the "evidence" to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan said calmly: "Lu Zhongshu, would you like to take a look at it?"
Lu Chongyuan frowned. He never expected that Song Jinxiu would bite Lu Zhinian back. He glanced at the furious eldest son and said calmly, "Where is Sanlang?"
"Father..." Lu Zhao's eyes flickered.
"Let me ask you, where is Sanlang?!" Lu Chongyuan's voice became deeper: "Didn't you go to pick him up in prison?"
"I..." Lu Zhao pursed his lips tightly: "I went to the imperial prison to pick him up, but after I picked him up from the prison, he started arguing with me about Song Tangning. I got angry with him. We had a few quarrels, so..."
"So you just let him go home?"
Lu Chongyuan's question made Lu Zhao look blank. Only then did Lu Chongyuan understand why Lu Zhinian, who was supposed to return home, actually caused such a big trouble. Xiao Yan, who let him out, went back on his word and brought the black-armored guards to the door himself, and treated Lu Qin like this.
"Where did he go and who did you send to follow him?" Lu Chongyuan said angrily.
Lu Zhao opened his mouth: "I..."
Seeing that he was speechless, Lu Chongyuan felt even colder: "You didn't send anyone to follow you?"
Lu Rong, who was following from the side, saw that the situation was not right and quickly said, "Yes, Master Lang, I sent Qin An to follow Mr. Sanlang..."
"What about the rest?"
Lu Rong was also choked by the question, and Lu Zhao looked at him with a pale face.
Lu Chongyuan knew from this situation that Lu Zhao didn't care about Lu Zhinian at all, so Qin An was probably sent by Lu Rong privately to follow him, otherwise Lu Zhao wouldn't have acted like he didn't know anything about everything. He was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe. , the throat is filled with fishy sweetness.
He had never felt that his eldest son was so stupid in the past, so stupid that he was hopelessly stupid! !
Lu Chongyuan gritted his teeth to suppress the dizziness in his eyes. There was a faint taste of blood in his mouth when he spoke. After glaring at Lu Zhao fiercely, he suppressed his anger and turned to look at Xiao Yan.
"Governor Xiao also heard that Lu Zhinian is not in the mansion."
"Really? How do I know that Lu Langling loves his son so much that he joins forces with Lu Zhongshu to put on a show for me?"
"Then what do you want?" Lu Chongyuan said coldly.
Xiao Yan raised his lips: "Since we are trying to capture a key criminal, we will naturally search him to find out whether he is there or not."
"How dare you?!" Lu Chongyuan was furious: "This is Zhongshu Ling's Mansion, not a place where your Privy Council can run wild!"
Xiao Yan chuckled softly when he heard the words: "Then Lu Zhongshu said so, I have to try whether I dare to act wildly." His expression suddenly turned cold, and he waved his hand behind him, "Take the people in and search carefully. , remember to search carefully and take a good look to see if Sanlang Lu is here."
"The Lu family is very expensive. Except for Sanlang of the Lu family, no one else is allowed to touch it. Remember not to touch anything valuable in the Lu family, lest Lu Zhongshu blame you."
Cang Lang responded with a smile: "Yes, Governor!"
The black-armored guards swarmed into Lu's house like a swarm. Not to mention Lu Chongyuan was so angry that he almost fell over. Even Lu Zhao and the others' expressions changed drastically.
The family mansion has always been very secretive, and there are countless shady things hidden inside. Although most of the extremely obscure things have been collected and hidden in advance, even if they are left on the surface, they cannot be shown to others, let alone There are dozens of masters in this mansion. Who can guarantee that there is nothing unclean in their hands?
If these black-armored guards were really allowed to go in and search, a huge disaster would really happen.
"Stop them, stop them quickly!!!"
Lu Chongyuan also lost his usual composure and shouted sharply.
The servants of the Lu family all stepped forward to stop them. Unfortunately, the three brothers of the Qian family had already beaten and "crippled" many people when they made a big fuss in the house. Now those who are left behind cannot stop the black men who are like mad dogs looking for food. Guard A, seeing those people entering the backyard in an instant, Lu Chongyuan was dizzy and roared.
"Xiao Yan, I will definitely impeach you before the Holy Spirit for your wanton behavior and insulting the Lu family!!"
Xiao Yan raised his lips: "Go ahead, I'll be waiting."
…
The sudden intrusion of the black-armored guards made everyone in the Lu family extremely frightened. Within a moment, there were screams one after another in the backyard. Seeing Xiao Yan's men like wolves among sheep, Lu Chongyuan turned pale. He was so angry that he almost died.
Qian Baokun tensed his jaw and looked stiff. He turned to look at Xiao Yan and lowered his voice: "President Xiao, didn't you tell me that you just wanted to teach the Lu family a lesson?!"
Xiao Yan tilted his head and raised his eyebrows: "Did I say so?"
"you……"
Qian Baokun's lips trembled, remembering what Xiao Yan had said to him when he met Xiao Yan outside the door just now. What did he say at that time?
"Miss Qian was humiliated today because she was dragged down by Tang Ning. This governor feels very guilty and is willing to work with Qian Shangshu to seek justice for them from the Lu family."
He fully thought that Xiao Yan was really just here to "ask for justice" for Song Tangning and Qian Qiyue, and to vent his anger, so he followed Xiao Yan in.
Even if he brought the black-armored guards in and directly broke Lu Qin's legs, he would only feel happy. However, he never expected that Xiao Yan never just wanted to vent his anger. He actually wanted to take the opportunity to steal Lu Qin's legs. After all, this thief wants to take over the Lu family.
Qian Baokun almost cursed when he looked at Xiao Yan who was talking so loudly.
This treacherous dead eunuch.
He wants to trick him to death! ! !
