Chapter 454 Can Nangong Lin Control It?

Chapter 454 Can Nangong Lin Control It?

At the end of June, there was heavy rain for half a month, causing floods.

The magistrate of Ningzhou evacuated the people privately, and the court was furious and imprisoned him. Under Nan Gonglin's secret arrangement, the imperial envoy arrived in Ningzhou five days later.At this time, most of the people in Ningzhou had already evacuated, and the rest were people who could not be persuaded to leave.

Hua Mingkun, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, frowned and stood at the gate of the magistrate's county yamen, looking at the desolate scene in Ningzhou City, "This magistrate is really desperate. He sent the people to leave without the emperor's order, looking for death."

"That's right, it's fine if he doesn't want his life, and I've troubled Master Hua to go there himself." Zhang Xiong, the head arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice next to him, said with a shy smile.

Hua Mingkun waved his hand, "Arrest the magistrate of Ningzhou to me. If His Royal Highness Chen Wang hadn't appointed him to be arrested, I wouldn't be bothered to come to such a ghostly place."

"Yes!"

The gate of the yamen was opened, and Lu Qingming had already shed his official clothes, and stood in the yamen in an upright green shirt, quietly waiting for the officers and soldiers to take him away without any resistance.

"Lord Hua, they've been caught!" Zhang Xiong put the shackles on Lu Qingming and returned to his life.

Hua Mingkun gave him a squinting look, "If you have self-knowledge, take it away!"

Lu Qingming was very calm in his heart. For the people of Ningzhou, he did everything he could, worthy of the trust of the emperor, and worthy of this official robe.

After leaving Ningzhou City, there are still two hours away from the capital.

Due to the continuous torrential rain, the floods caused disasters, and the road was full of calf-deep rain.Lu Qingming walked on the "water" road like this. After walking for about half an hour, the carriage suddenly stopped beside him, splashing sewage all over his body.

The car curtain was raised, Hua Mingkun sat in the car, looked at him and asked, "Lu Qingming, why did you transfer the people of Ningzhou City? Who instigated you to do this?"

"Even if you are interrogating a prisoner, shouldn't you go to the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for another trial?" Lu Qingming asked doubtfully.

Hua Mingkun smiled but said, "You are already a prisoner of this officer. I can interrogate whenever I want. You should tell the truth, otherwise no one will know what happened to this barren mountain. "

"If something happens to me, can you, the official who escorted the prisoner, get out of the relationship?" Lu Qingming frowned and looked at him.

A disdainful smile appeared on Hua Mingkun's lips, "You took advantage of my lord's unpreparedness to try to escape, but on the way back from arresting you, my lord encountered your stubborn resistance and accidentally beat you to death. Do you think that What a big mistake for me is a trivial matter?"

"We Lord Hua are the grandsons of King Changrong. It's nothing to kill a criminal by mistake. Even if you were beaten to death by our Lord when you were the prefect, it would be your bad luck." Zhang Xionghu pretended to be Huwei.

Lu Qingming said lightly, "I heard that the Yong'an Dam might burst. For the safety of the people in Ningzhou, I had no choice but to make this bad move to transfer the people."

"Who said that?"

"Everyone in Ningzhou knows this news, and I don't know who spread it. Anyway, everyone knows." Lu Qingming looked at Hua Mingkun, and answered without leaking, "It's a rare heavy rain in a century. , I am really worried that something will happen to Yong'an Dam, time is not waiting for me, and the transfer of the people is urgent, so I can only transfer the people first, and then report to the court. This is indeed the fault of the lower official, so the lower official and the adults went to the Ministry of Punishment , wait for the hair to fall."

Reasonable and well-founded, without flaws.

"You!" Hua Mingkun narrowed his eyes, "Who on earth are you trying to cover for? Is it because our benevolent Prince Rui ordered you to act in such a way of loving the people like a child?"

Lu Qingming instantly understood that Hua Mingkun didn't care whether the transfer of the people was his own decision or someone instructed him, he just wanted to frame Prince Rui.

With this matter, Prince Rui was dragged into the water.

No wonder he had to interrogate halfway, when he arrived in the capital, the Ministry of Criminal Justice did not cover the sky with one hand, openly slandering Prince Rui, and Prince Rui was not a vegetarian either.

"Lord Hua, it was my own decision to transfer the people of Ningzhou. Prince Rui and I didn't know each other at all, let alone ordered it." Lu Qingming replied solemnly.

Hua Mingkun's eyes sank, "You're stubborn. If you don't suffer, you don't know how to tell the truth. Zhang Xiong."

"Yes!" Zhang Xiong, the head arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, stepped forward quickly, and shoveled fiercely on Lu Qingming's abdomen, kicking this frail scholar to the ground, splashing water everywhere.

"Bang!" Lu Qingming fell heavily to the ground, arched his body clutching his abdominal pain, his face turned pale in an instant, dripping with cold sweat.

Zhang Xiong smirked, "The surname is Lu, you can do whatever our lord tells you, so hurry up and recruit. Did Prince Rui order you to transfer the people!"

"No." Lu Qingming gritted his teeth.

Zhang Xiong grabbed Lu Qingming's hair with one hand, and directly pressed his head into the sewage on the ground, "Is it?"

"Pfft... cough cough cough..." Lu Qingming was almost drowned, and said with difficulty, "No!"

Hua Mingkun's eyes turned cold, "Trash, even a scholar can't deal with it."

"Don't be angry, my lord. I'll let him do it." Zhang Xiong said quickly, pressing Lu Qingming's head firmly and sinking into the water, cursing viciously, "You are still a hard bone, I will tear your bones apart one by one. See how tough you are. Hmph, let me tell you, grandpa has been a head catcher all his life, and what he is best at is torturing hard-mouthed bastards like you! Hire or not!"

"Gulu... Puff puff..." Lu Qingming used his hands and feet together, but he was not as strong as Zhang Xiong, so he could only struggle in vain.

His whole face was bruised and purple, his vision was blurry...

"Whoosh!"

A throwing knife was shot in Zhang Xiong's hand, Zhang Xiong let go of the pain, and saw a group of people coming from the opposite side of the rain.

"Master Lu!" Ye Muxi hurriedly got off the carriage, ran to Lu Qingming in two or three steps, and Ye Xiaobai picked him up.

"Ye...Miss Ye..." Lu Qingming coughed twice, and smiled at her weakly.

Hua Mingkun narrowed his eyes, "Ye Muxi, you, a woman, dare to interfere with official duties. For your father's sake, I won't arrest you, get out of the way."

"You abused and beat the imperial court official, and as a servant of the Ministry of Punishment, you know you broke the law!" Seeing Lu Qingming like this, Ye Muxi's expression darkened instantly.

Hua Mingkun snorted, "It's none of your business to deal with the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. Just meddle in your own business. For your father's sake, you don't care about me. If you still dare to meddle in my business, go away."

"Lu Qingming, the prefect of Ningzhou, has the audacity to transfer millions of people in Ningzhou. The case is serious. The Metropolitan Procuratorate decided to intervene and monitor the case." Jun Mochen lifted the curtain of the car and said.

The man in red in the carriage appeared in Hua Mingkun's sight, causing his face to change instantly.

Nangong Lin actually came in person.

"Master Hua, the Zuodu Censor is here in person, might he be meddling in this matter?" Jun Mochen raised his voice.

Hua Mingkun was not reconciled, but he could only snort coldly, "The Metropolitan Procuratorate wants to supervise, whatever you want. But this case belongs to our Ministry of Criminal Justice, so don't even think about meddling in it."

Turning to Zhang Xiong, he said angrily, "What are you still doing, let's go!"

"Yes!" Zhang Xiong stuck a throwing knife in the back of his hand, with blood gushing, he turned and shouted at Lu Qingming, "Hurry up and go, why are you pretending to be sick?"

Ye Muxi glanced at him coldly, and said to Ye Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, help Master Lu to walk together."
