Chapter 1178: Clumsy Frame-Up

Lu Baichuan glanced at him and understood that he was crying about his poverty.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and knew how much money Liao Yifeng had, maybe he would really think that he was a good official who served the country and the people, but was stumped by money. After all, what happened, and there was no money from the court, No matter how powerful a person is, there is nothing he can do.

Thinking that he couldn't break up with him yet, Lu Baichuan followed his words and said: "Don't worry, we brought disaster relief money this time. We can use it when the large troops arrive. We can arrange everything we need to do now. Don't worry." Then it will be a waste of time to rush around."

Lu Baichuan was inclined towards him, but it couldn't be too obvious. On the surface, it had to be business-like so as not to arouse suspicion.

The fact is indeed the case. Liao Yifeng liked Lu Baichuan's tactics very much. He said with a smile on his face: "Xiaguan understands. In addition, Ji Ziqiu's Xiaguan will also send people to keep an eye on that old boy. I thought something was wrong with him before. If it is really him If he wants to harm His Highness Prince Jing, I will not let him off lightly!"

This was a clear statement of his position. Lu Baichuan was very satisfied and said, "Then there is Mr. Lao Liao."

"Should be."

The two chatted for a while, and Liao Yifeng was about to leave to resettle the refugees. Before leaving, he told Lu Baichuan that someone would be sent to pick him up in the evening, and he could just go and stay at his house.

Naturally, Lu Baichuan would not refuse. The two of them were laughing so hard that Ji Ziqiu, who was sitting not far away, clenched his fists.

Sure enough, he treated his wife like that yesterday and treated himself like this today. They have long been in cahoots.

Originally, he was still a little confused about whether to find Liao Yifeng, but now it seems that it is necessary.

Before leaving at night, Lu Baichuan went to have a few words with Prince Jing.

"Liao Yifeng's people are keeping vigil tonight. Nothing will happen. My people will be watching in secret and will take action when necessary."

Mrs. Zhao's people have been guarding her for three nights. She can't be guarded all the time.

Moreover, a group of his people arrived last night and had already contacted him. He asked them to temporarily hide in the dark and take turns watching King Jing to make sure nothing went wrong.

It goes without saying that Prince Jing trusted him. He nodded, and then said: "There is something very important. I have always wanted to go out and talk to you, but I am afraid of any accidents, so I will tell you in advance now. You must send someone to check.”

Lu Baichuan guessed what he wanted to say, but he still nodded and said, "You say it."

"You know that I am being harmed like this now, but the reason why I am being harmed is because I suspect that Ji Ziqiu and the others are doing harmful things secretly, because this mountain is full of man-made caves, and the earthquake caused it At that time, those who worked in the mountains were not able to escape."

"I wanted to go in and find out what was going on in the cave by rescuing people, but I was stopped several times. There were still a few people alive underneath. Princess Sheng'an couldn't bear it and wanted to go down to rescue people. What happened was If you move, I will follow you in and we will be buried together.”

"The earthquake was not a natural disaster, but man-made, because we could feel the cave where we were alone shaking, and it calmed down after we were buried."

"Although they didn't kill us right away, they gradually stopped caring about us and wanted to starve us to death. If it weren't for the medicine you gave us, we wouldn't have been able to survive you."

Prince Jing tried his best to describe the matter as briefly as possible, fearing that Lu Baichuan would be deceived. He wanted to say a few more words, but was interrupted by Lu Baichuan: "I know everything you said, and I have already laid it out. Don't worry."

Although there were no outsiders around, Lu Baichuan still didn't want to say too much and would wait until he had anything to say.

This simple sentence made Prince Jing and Wu Jiao feel at ease. Lu Baichuan's ability was indeed not a boast. No wonder he had not shown up for so long before. He must have been investigating these things.The two of them were so impressed that they no longer knew what to say.

Lu Baichuan went back, and something happened to Prince Jing that night.

Someone pushed the stone in the middle of the night with the intention of crushing Prince Jing and Wu Jiao to death, but was caught red-handed.

Interestingly, this is the person left by Liao Yifeng.

After interrogation overnight, the man also confessed that it was Liao Yifeng's mission and that he must be killed before successfully rescuing Prince Jing.

Lu Baichuan received the news in the middle of the night, but he was not in a hurry. After making sure that Prince Jing was fine, he continued to sleep with his wife in his arms. However, Liao Yifeng immediately suffered from insomnia after learning about it, and started going crazy in the middle of the night. He wanted to come to Lu Baichuan for an explanation, but was rejected by Lu Baichuan. Inform that the general is sleeping.

His official position was not as high as Lu Baichuan's, and even if he had urgent matters, he would have to wait for Lu Baichuan's consent before he could see him, so he lingered outside the courtyard where Lu Baichuan and the others lived all night.

When Lu Baichuan got up early and went out tomorrow, Liao Yifeng knelt directly in front of Lu Baichuan with a face that looked like he had stayed up late.

"what happened?"

Lu Baichuan had just gotten up and looked very confused. He was even startled by Liao Yifeng's behavior.

"General, something happened last night with His Highness Prince Jing. Someone was arrested, one of the subordinates..."

When he said this, he had been carefully observing Lu Baichuan's expression, and found that Lu Baichuan didn't take it seriously at all, and said: "Oh, I knew about it at night. I can still tell that such an obvious frame-up was framed against me, Master Liao. no need to worry."

As he spoke, he helped the person up himself.

As soon as these words came out, Liao Yifeng felt that he had heard wrongly. He had been anxious all night, but was he worried in vain?

"General Mingjian! This matter really has nothing to do with the official. I don't know who framed the official like this. The official will definitely send someone to investigate and give the general an explanation!"

Liao Yifeng swore firmly, knowing in his heart that it was Ji Ziqiu who was the mad dog biting people, and then he lost control of everything. He didn't know how to harm him after that, so Ji Ziqiu had to die, and he had to die quickly.

What's more important is that now that Lu Baichuan trusts him, even if Ji Ziqiu is dead now, Lu Baichuan will only feel that his hatred has been relieved, instead of raising suspicion on him.

Lu Baichuan said in a dignified manner: "Don't worry, Mr. Liao, my wife has said that you and Mrs. Ling are both cheerful people and will not do such harmful things. This matter is definitely caused by villains behind the scenes and intentionally framed." As for you, I, the general, will naturally not listen to slander! I will go and see how the situation is with His Highness first, Lord Liao is busy."

With that said, he took the lead and quickly mounted his horse to leave.

There was really no doubt in that cool and neat look.

Liao Yifeng realized that Lu Baichuan was a strict wife, and he trusted Jiang Jiuniang so much just because of a few words from Jiang Jiuniang. It seemed that he would still have to work more on Jiang Jiuniang in the future.

And Jiang Jiuniang is someone who loves money. Isn’t she just giving in to someone else’s liking?
Liao Yifeng intuitively knew that this was a sure thing!
