This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 447: Uncle Released from Prison
The Ministry of Justice is here to transfer prisoners?

It was just a simple sentence, and Lu Yuanzhi's brows immediately frowned.

How long have you been away from Beijing?

Do people from the Ministry of Justice dare to brazenly come to Peiyinlang’s yamen and take away the prisoner?
His gaze was looking from afar at the group of people from the Ministry of Justice who had entered the room.

The leader of the group was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He was dressed in uniform and official clothes, with a long sword on his waist. He looked majestic and quite arrogant.

"Who is he?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Luan Pei beside him indifferently.

"Mr. Lu, this man is the head of the prison of the Ministry of Justice, Sun Ao."

Na Luan Pei looked up at Lu Yuanzhi cautiously, feeling the intimidating aura from Lu Yuanzhi, and her heart trembled a little.

Lu Yuanzhi fought his way all the way from the capital to the battlefield, and the murderous aura on his body had almost become tangible. Just by looking at him, one could feel a faint chill rushing up from one's neck.

"Oh, he comes to mention the prisoner?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Luan Pei calmly and asked:
"Who is the criminal?"

"This……"

Luan Pei swallowed hard and mustered up her courage to say:
"The current Minister of Rites, Hai Rui."

As soon as these words came out, the air around them spread directly along Lu Yuanzhi's cold eyes.

When Luan Pei replied, he felt as if his heart was about to stop beating, his hands and feet were cold, and his body felt like it was not his own. None of his organs obeyed his commands at all, and he could only endure this breath.

"understood."

Lu Yuanzhi just nodded slightly, then frowned and looked at the people from the Ministry of Justice who were rushing inside.

After glancing at him indifferently, he turned around and walked towards Pei Yinlang's prison.

"Lord Lu... Duke??!"

"Lord Duke, you are back??!"

Everyone who saw Lu Yuanzhi was confused.

Wherever Lu Yuanzhi passed, people fell to the ground.

He ignored the Peiyinlang clerks in the prison and walked calmly towards the depths of the cell.

It was almost the end when his cold eyes finally dissipated a little.

Pei Yinlang and his gang did not disappoint me.

After I leave, I still want to take care of my family.

Otherwise, when I came back this time, I might not see my uncle in Pei Yinlang’s cell, but in the cemetery.

While Lu Yuanzhi was thinking, he had already reached the end of the cell. He pushed lightly and the door of the cell was pushed open.

There was silence in the cell.

Lu Yuanzhi looked at it intently and his expression became strange.

I saw my uncle lying comfortably on the bed, with two beautiful women in palace dress serving him wine.

My uncle was chewing grapes that he had just taken out of the fruit plate. A beautiful woman in palace dress carefully caught the grape skins he spit out, and then another beautiful woman in palace dress poured the wine into my uncle's mouth.

If there was spilled wine, he would gently wipe it away for my uncle.

"Tsk."

Lu Yuanzhi's voice resounded in the cell:
"Master Hai is so leisurely."

There was a hint of teasing in his voice.

After his voice sounded, my uncle who was lying on the bed trembled obviously. Then, he looked towards the door of the cell. After seeing Lu Yuanzhi's smiling face, he sat up suddenly.

"Why are you back?!!"

There was disbelief in my uncle's voice.

"Why can't I come back?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at his uncle indifferently, then slowly walked to his uncle's side.

Before he could speak, he saw the two beauties in palace dress kneeling on the ground:
"Meet the Duke of Beiguo."

"Go out." Lu Yuanzhi waved his hand casually.

"Yes."

Two beauties in palace costumes slowly walked out of the room.

After they left, Lu Yuanzhi glanced at his uncle with an extremely cold gaze:

"Who did it?"

When the uncle knew that Lu Yuanzhi asked, he naturally stiffened his neck and said angrily:
"Li Zhen."

"Li Zhen?"

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of murderous intent rose from his body:

"Where's Prince Qing? Where's the Second Prince? They didn't participate?"

"I don't know whether Prince Qing was involved, but Your Majesty certainly wasn't. When he was plotting against me in the palace, Your Majesty spoke up for me, but because Li Zhen's plan was so perfect, I didn't stand a chance."

My uncle's voice was heavy:
"Won't you be giving others an advantage by coming back at this time?"

"hehe."

Lu Yuanzhi slowly raised his head and looked at his uncle, his voice calm:
"At that time, Lord Ji was a third-rank warrior and did not disrupt the government. Lord Ji was kind, but I am different from Lord Ji."

Although his voice was gentle, it contained a chill that made my uncle's neck go cold:
"As the number one war god of Dayong, the imperial master will not care as long as he does not plot against the Shangguan family."

My uncle took a deep breath:

"Can……"

"No buts. The Imperial Master still owes me an explanation. I'm already giving him face by not taking the initiative to look for him."

Lu Yuanzhi looked in a certain direction in the prison, as if he wanted to see through all the obstacles and look at the old figure in the Kewusi.

"hehe."

On the observation tower of the Kewusi, the national teacher just laughed softly, playing with the flute in his hand, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.

……

"So what are you going to do now?"

My uncle stretched and looked up at Lu Yuanzhi.

In fact, from the moment he saw Lu Yuanzhi appear in the prison, my uncle was relieved.

"Kill Li Zhen."

Lu Yuanzhi said calmly, his eyes were completely cold:
"If he dares to send someone to kill Bai Qingying, his entire family will be buried with him."

"Ah."

My uncle nodded calmly.

The uncle now is no longer the uncle in Chongbei who was cautious and struggled in the officialdom.

The uncle knew that his nephew was now fully grown, and although his own team in the officialdom had suffered a lot this time, their foundation had not been completely affected.

My daughter is still serving as an apprentice to the Imperial Master at the Kewusi.

His power had unknowingly reached the sky.

If not for this, Li Zhen would not have chosen to attack suddenly this time.

If you can’t win in the court, your uncle will admit defeat.

He also admired Li Zhen's methods.

But it is still unknown who will win.

"How to kill?"

My uncle slowly raised his head and looked at Lu Yuanzhi's profile.

Before he knew it, his nephew had become the person he needed to look up to.

"Of course, I killed him openly."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at his uncle strangely, lowered his head and said:
"I want to kill Li Zhen now, and no one will say anything. Even if I kill him for no apparent reason, the people of the world will only applaud and praise me for killing him well and for killing all the corrupt officials in the world."

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words which were almost shameless.

For a moment, my uncle didn't know what to say.

Yes, my nephew has now gained unparalleled influence among the people. The news that he killed the Demon King in one battle is still spreading in the streets and alleys.

"I have one more question."

The uncle looked at Lu Yuanzhi solemnly.

"You say."

Lu Yuanzhi sat down slowly.

"Where's Erwa? How's he doing?"

The uncle stared at Lu Yuanzhi.

"Ugh……"

Lu Yuanzhi sighed inexplicably. Seeing Lu Yuanzhi sigh, the uncle's heart suddenly tightened, and his eyes widened:

"If anything happens to Erwa, you have to give me an explanation!!!"

My uncle's voice was hoarse and solemn.

"What could happen to him?"

Lu Yuanzhi laughed, clearing the atmosphere in the cell:

"He has already made a breakthrough on the battlefield and is now a fourth-rank scholar."

"Whoo~"

Hearing what Lu Yuanzhi said, the uncle felt relieved. He glanced at Lu Yuanzhi:
"What do you say now? I continue to stay in jail?"

"Stay for nothing, just follow me."

Lu Yuanzhi rolled his eyes at his uncle and then stood up.

As soon as the two men walked out of the prison, they saw a group of people rushing into the prison.

"I am here under the order of the Ministry of Justice to bring in the criminal Hai Rui!!"

As soon as the men and horses appeared, a loud voice was heard.

Then he saw Sun Ao, whom he had just met at Pei Yinlang's door, walking from the end of the cell.

Lu Yuanzhi just watched him approach slowly with indifference.

"Boss Sun, this is Pei Yinlang's prison after all, can we keep the noise down?"

An adjutant followed behind Sun Ao, his face full of worry.

"Little? What do you mean by little? What happened to Pei Yinlang? Not to mention that their entire team has gone out to look for him now, even if they were all here, I would be afraid of them?"

Sun Ao sneered, glanced at the adjutant, and said disdainfully as he walked away:

"Pei Yinlang is quite powerful, but their boss is not in the capital. Right now, the most powerful government office in the entire capital is my Ministry of Justice!!"

As he spoke, he walked towards the depths of the cell.

After the man came closer, Lu Yuanzhi looked at him slowly with scrutiny in his eyes.

"land!!!"

As soon as Sun Ao approached, he saw Lu Yuanzhi staring at him coldly, his eyes widened.

“Lu…Lu…”

Sun Ao's arrogance was gone, and he looked at Lu Yuanzhi stutteringly:
"You...you are not in...North..."

I can't even speak clearly.

Lu Yuanzhi just looked at him indifferently without saying a word.

"How...how did you come back...?"

Sun Ao's voice almost trembled.

God is my witness, he would never have thought that the figure he saw when he entered the prison was actually this person???

"Why can't I come back?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked him up and down with a blank expression:
"do you have any opinion?"

When Sun Ao heard Lu Yuanzhi's words, he was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. Lu Yuanzhi's gaze was like a knife, scraping across his body inch by inch. No matter where he was seen, he felt a cold breath sweeping over him.

"No...no...I...I."

Sun Ao didn't know whether his arrogant words just now had offended Lu Yuanzhi.

With a "bang", Sun Ao felt his knees go weak and he knelt on the ground involuntarily.

Following Sun Ao's kneeling, everyone followed him and knelt down, their faces all pale.

Lu Yuanzhi's name is now well-known in the court, and no one dares to ignore this name.

No one dared to disobey this name.

"roll."

Lu Yuanzhi uttered a word lightly.

"Yes!!!"

Sun Ao stood up from the ground reflexively as if he had received an order, and ran away in disgrace with his tail between his legs like a stray dog.

"Get out of here!!!"

Lu Yuanzhi's voice turned cold.

Sun Ao started running.

The people behind him also started to run after him...

Looking at their backs, a sneer appeared on my uncle's face:
"If you don't come back, I'm afraid they will really take me away."

"Am I back now?"

Lu Yuanzhi smiled faintly.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

The two of them left Pei Yinlang's yamen together.

"Why don't you go home and have dinner first?"

My uncle felt the long-lost sunshine and felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Well, your aunt must have heard about your imprisonment a long time ago. Go back and let her know that you are safe."

Lu Yuanzhi quietly glanced in the direction of Li Zhen's mansion in the distance, then nodded to his uncle, and they walked towards his uncle's mansion together.

"Yes."

When my uncle thought of my aunt, his expression softened.

"By the way, tell your aunt that you have been doing well in prison during this period of time."

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at his uncle.

"Uh……"

My uncle's face flushed instantly, he looked ahead evasively, coughed and said:

"This has nothing to do with me. It was all arranged by your subordinates."

"Tsk."

Lu Yuanzhi lifted up his uncle without saying a word, and then his body flew straight into the sky.

"Ouch!!"

My uncle felt the weightlessness coming from his body and almost cried out:
"You can fly now?"

"You can kill the Demon King, but you can't fly. You really underestimate the martial arts."

Lu Yuanzhi chuckled.

In less than an incense stick of time, the two of them had landed at the door of my uncle's mansion.

"I'm back. I'm back again."

My uncle looked at the door of his home which he had not seen for a long time, and his heart was filled with excitement.

"Haha, you are the first high-ranking official who can come out of Peiyinlang Prison unscathed."

There was a smile on Lu Yuanzhi's lips.

"It's true." The uncle thought about it and realized that it was true. In the past, high-ranking officials who were imprisoned would almost always have their homes searched the next day.

It was really surprising that not only did I come back, but I also came back safe and sound.

"But the news of your return to the capital should have started to spread."

The uncle looked up at Lu Yuanzhi and reminded him.

"I just want them all to know. It would be best if they were all gathered together, so I don't have to search for them one by one."

Lu Yuanzhi chuckled nonchalantly and took his uncle into the mansion.

After seeing Lu Yuanzhi and his uncle, the gatekeeper Old Zhang rubbed his eyes in disbelief, walked up to the two of them tremblingly, and reached out his hands to touch them.

"Master??!!"

Lao Zhang's voice was trembling.

"Haha, quickly inform the lady and tell her that the master is back."

The uncle smiled gently and patted Lao Zhang on the shoulder.

Lao Zhang is an old man from my uncle's family. He has been following my uncle since Chongbei and is an absolutely reliable confidant.

When we came to Beijing, my uncle wanted to let Lao Zhang do something else, but he was not interested at all and just liked to be a doorman...

"Okay, okay! It's good that you're back, sir, it's good that you're back!!!"

As he spoke, Lao Zhang began to wipe away his tears.
