Chapter 119 Humiliation
Su Tongjuan's face turned red and green after hearing Lu Weimang's words.

He has a rare talent, he was raised by his family, and he was favored by famous talented women in Yangzhou city. Later, he took part in the imperial examination and won in one fell swoop. It can't be said that it is not high, the key is that Tong Juan was appointed by the emperor, so in Yangzhou City, although he is the number two official figure, he is respected as a guest of honor by the county guard.

His life has been going smoothly since he was born, that's why he secretly competes with Huo Hou, who is proud of the same young man and praised by the whole country. He privately thinks it's just that. Weimang must have done it on purpose, although this person is kind on the surface, but he only tramples on other people's dead spots. It seems that the county sheriff is right, those of them who come from a noble family are not good things, they are very proud .

But he forgot that his background, although not comparable to Huohou and Lu Weimang, is also a prominent family in Yangzhou.

Moreover, Huo Hou was born in a noble family because his father dedicated his life to Dagan, and Lu Weimang was born in a noble family, which was also because of his father Lu Qingshan's hard work.How many people participated in the battle at the beginning, and there were countless casualties among the soldiers. How many people were there who were of honorable background, and how many people were there in the whole army?On the contrary, there are not a few people like Su Tongpan who were born in Yangzhou, didn't experience much war, and grew up wealthy and peaceful.

This Su Tongpan didn't know how to reflect on himself, he just felt that Lu Weimang, who was so kind and talkative in front of him, was extremely hateful, so he gritted his teeth and responded, "I have a bright future for my brother to worry about Mrs. Lu. But I want Mrs. Lu to know. Being an official is very different. In the capital, you just look up information and drink tea, but in the local government, you have to know what your boss is saying, and you have to control your subordinates. There are countless squires among them. Fu Jia, you have to build good relationships. You can’t learn it by staying in school and studying a few books. From Master Lu’s tone, you must have a lot of talent in books, but there are more things to do with people and to be sophisticated. Only after you practice can you release yourself to do things.”

Lu Weimang listened carefully, and nodded as he listened, "There are so many famous people. In just a few years, Mr. Su has been living like a fish in water in this Suzhou city. It turns out that he has put in so much effort behind his back. It really makes me wait for the Beijing officials." How ashamed!"

"But?" Lu Weimang raised his head, and looked down at the smug Su Tongpan from above the attic across the air, "If I remember correctly, Mr. Su is the general judge appointed by His Majesty, and all His Majesty Your majesty should have told you the appointed person, the duty of the general judge is to supervise the local governor, and to be in charge of soldiers, horses, money and food, field and grain transportation, and water conservancy lawsuits. Every time a general judge is dispatched to Beijing, your majesty will treat you I have high hopes, and hope that you can monitor and stabilize the place for the imperial court. But Mr. Su just talked eloquently, but he didn't say how to do this general sentence at all. I would like to ask Su Tong judge, whether there are any officials in Yangzhou who broke the law and took money. What about your ministers? Is there any country gentry and wealthy merchants who have embezzled the land and ruined the people’s homes, and you are still in charge of the lawsuit? Are there any people who have cried before the adults and begged you to make decisions for them?"

Su Tongpan's face turned red, his eyes were weak and ferocious, "You don't understand. It's not that simple to be an official. You are lucky to stay in Beijing, how do you know the difficulties of our local officials?"

Lu Weimang nodded, "Okay, let's not talk about these officials' associations and the oppression of local snakes, just talk about grain transportation and water conservancy. In the past few years, how much grain transportation in Yangzhou City every year? How many water conservancy projects have been dredged? I heard that some time ago There was a drought in the south of the Yangtze River in [-], and a group of people died, so what remedial measures did you take?"

Lu Weimang asked sincerely, with a sincere face, and his black and white eyes condescendingly looked down at the judge, which made him dare not look directly at him. He was finally sure that this Lu Weimang was more than just what the county sheriff said was not kind. She came, He wanted to overthrow everything in the south of the Yangtze River and start over, "Good! Good! Good! Master Lu is indeed a court celebrity whom His Majesty loves to promote, and he never leaves the people of the court. His words are righteous and high-sounding. Our place A petty official doesn't have the style of Mr. Lu, so he can't stand Mr. Lu's interrogation. You can use whatever tricks you want, but at worst, the court will punish me for malfeasance. When the time comes, you talk empty teeth, and I want to see how you punish me It’s a crime? But it’s not as bad as my family, I just wanted to come here today to take my wife away, can you let my wife out now? It’s even more serious, we husband and wife are going home, so we won’t gossiping with Mr. Lu.”

Su Tongjuan showed his first calm expression since he entered Jingmengyuan. It seemed that he had seen through the situation in front of him and was not moved by external words.

But Lu Weimang wasn't having fun yet, she looked at the judge, "Husband and wife? Is Mrs. Su the wife of the judge? Why didn't I see it?"

"What do you mean?" The judge became anxious again.

"From what I've seen today, Mrs. Su's life is not easy. If you regard her as your wife, you won't let her suffer from those nasty sufferings." Lu Weimang shook his head and said.

"What did she tell you? It's just a plaything of a skinny horse. Who in this world doesn't take a concubine? It's not enough for her to quarrel with me in the mansion. She also puts on a dead face every day, so that everyone knows I dote on my concubine and destroy my wife, such a jealous and unvirtuous wife, I should have divorced her long ago!" When Su Tongpan spoke, veins popped out on his face.

It's strange that today Lu Weimang sneered at him, as if his kind of arrogant and arrogant person was not so furious, but Lu Weimang was so furious when he just mentioned Mrs. Su.

Lu Weimang quietly looked at Su Tongpan, who was bursting with blue veins, and Su Tongpan quickly realized that he had lost his composure, and after adjusting, he said, "Lord Lu, it's getting late, please forgive me for not being with you. There are still Old mother, wait for me to return with my wife, please return my wife."

Lu Weimang shook his head and said softly, "It's late."

Su Tongpan's complexion changed drastically, "It's the first time for her to come to this flower banquet today, unlike Mrs. Feng and others, can't you let her go?"

Sure enough, it's not that Su Tongjuan didn't know the seriousness of tonight's incident. The reason why he was easily provoked by the sheriff and others to find Jingmeng Garden and confront Lu Weimang was because he didn't treat himself like the sheriff. Wives can be completely indifferent, regardless of their life or death.

Lu Weimang said softly, "Just now, before Mrs. Su was taken away, she knelt down in front of me, but she was not for herself, she begged me to let you go. She said that her husband studied hard for ten years before he was able to get ahead. But it is I was afraid that Shangfeng would blame me, so I had no choice but to take a skinny horse home, and told me not to punish him and let him go."

The judge's eyes were red, and he lowered his head, as if there were tears in his eyes, "I used to be as innocent as Mr. Lu, and I was full of enthusiasm when His Majesty received him. But the reality? I can't even handle my own mother's clan. I can't even protect my own lover. If I don't get along with them, Qing Shu will be tortured to death, and I will also be trapped in this Yangzhou City, without even a single person of my own, and I will be controlled by them all."

The judge wiped his eyes and raised his head, "I admit, I'm incompetent. I can only read, I can't do anything, I can't even protect my wife. But public opinion is like a knife, if Qingshu can't tell me tonight Go back, with her weak nature, she won't be able to survive. Master Lu, you can punish me however you want, and I will let you and Huohou go. Even, I know that Huohou has important things to do when he comes to Yangzhou, so I can Turning to Huohou, I just ask you to be lenient."

Su Tongpan stared at Lu Weimang closely at this moment, with a firm expression on his face.

Unpredictable.Some people can tell lies with determination to achieve their goals.

The so-called painting skin and painting a tiger is difficult to paint bones, and being influenced by words is the most stupid thing.

Lu Weimang doesn't care if he believes what Su Tong said.Words can be turned at will, but actions cannot.Some people have a bodhisattva heart but do evil things, and some people have a devil heart but pretend to do good deeds.

But right now, there is a general judgment that Yangzhou City is only under the county guard, which is definitely beneficial to Huo Jing's next plan.As for how to deal with this Su Tong sentence after the plan is completed, we will wait and see at that time.

At that moment, Lu Weimang pretended to be touched by his true feelings, sighed softly,
"I thought you had lost your pride and self-esteem, glory and faith. Just now, I thought you were not a young man who got fame in front of me. You were just a group of people who were shunned by everyone and indulged in sensuality , It’s just the silt that Shen Lun is willing to drift with. I didn’t expect that you also have your own difficulties. Ding Yi, take him to see Lord Hou, explain the whole story to Lord Hou, and let Lord Hou take care of everything.”

Surprise flashed in Su Tongjuan's eyes, then he took his leave and followed a black-armored guard into the darkness.

"Miss, do you really believe what he said?"

Xiao Qiu couldn't help asking, and Ding Yi couldn't hold back either, "Scholars like this are the best at eloquence. Ms. Lu is not well-versed in the world, so don't be fooled by him just because he looks like a human!"

Lu Weimang laughed, and looked back at Ding Yi, "Am I so easy to be confused? He said that he had difficulties, but it turned out that his wife was suffering, so he hugged him from left to right. When something went wrong, he immediately jumped out and made mistakes Push it all to others, and even secretly blamed my mother. If you don't take advantage of this kind of person, you will be sorry for his good intentions."

"You use him? You have always been straightforward and disdain to use these methods. Didn't you just let him go to see the young master? I thought..."

Lu Weimang chuckled, "Think I'm bewitched by him?" Lu Weimang shook his head, "People are unpredictable, I hope that people can open their hearts, so I often go straight to people who don't like me, and I don't like it. I don't care. However, there are always some people in this world who think they can play tricks on people's hearts. This time, I will let them taste the taste of being played with. Did you see that Mrs. Su just now? The day before she was taken away In a second, she was still lying at my feet, pleading for her so-called lover. If there is no such Su Tongpan, how lovely and transparent is that Miss Qingshu?"

Seeing Lu Weimang's downcast expression, Xiaoqiu's usually expressionless face was a little worried, so he poked Ding Yi next to him and asked him to think of a way.

Ding Yi scratched his head and choked out a sentence, "My young master is the most sincere person in the world. Like Miss Lu, he doesn't bother with people who play tricks on people's hearts. It seems that you are a match made in heaven, haha..."

The atmosphere became dry, and Ding Yi couldn't stop laughing.

Lu Weimang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Okay, let's go back. If we wait any longer, it's just some people with filthy souls coming here to speak righteously and pretend. I don't want to read any more."

Only then did Xiaoqiu and Ding Yi breathe a sigh of relief, "That's right, we don't have to let them pollute our mood. There are more bright people in this bright world. Those scumbags are very few, and it's not worth affecting their mood for them."

Lu Weimang said calmly, "That's right, they are just some cowardly rats who dare not fight openly and can't control their desires. It's really flattering them to be affected by them. I didn't eat well tonight, miss please How about your supper?"

Both hands agree!

 Thanks to Mu Hongmei for the monthly pass of 63245.
