Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 583 The Arrival of Long History
Lu Jiying looked smug, and said, "Thank you for your praise, my old Lu. Don't dare to brag. If you want to talk about being a parent officer, you really have a lot of experience."

Ning laughed out loud and said, "From my younger sister's point of view, elder brother has a lot of experience in bragging about himself."

Lu Jiying also laughed, and he let out a long breath and said, "Ah, I'm finally back. Hey, sister Xian, look, the county government is in front of you."

Ning raised her head and looked forward, and in the middle of the street not far away, a yamen stood majestically.

Lu Jiying said: "It's all right now, I'm finally home."

Suddenly, Ning said: "Brother, as the county magistrate, you left the flood area and went to Luoyang privately. It has been more than 20 days today. If the matter is leaked, how will you explain to the Shangguan?"

A confident smile appeared on Lu Jiying's face: "Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with them."

As he spoke, the carriage had arrived in front of the county yamen, the driver yelled, the carriage stopped immediately, Zhang Gu Jihu jumped off the carriage and ran towards the yamen.

The curtain was lifted, Lu Jiying jumped out of the car, the driver took the pedals and put them under the car, Lu Jiying helped Ning down, and said with a smile: "Come on, sister, take a look at Brother Yu's house..."

Before the words were finished, there were footsteps in the county government office, and Zhang Gu Jihu rushed out leading the county magistrate and magistrate, and the three of them looked very panicked.

Lu Jiying hurriedly took a step forward and said, "What's the matter?"

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "My lord, Wu Wendeng, governor of Yangzhou, is now in the second hall!"

Lu Jiying was startled, and blurted out, "Why is he here?"

The county magistrate said: "I don't even know about the lowly position. Mr. Wu came to the Yamen in low clothes, and it seems that he is here for you!"

Lu Jiying asked nervously, "What did he say?"

The county magistrate said: "Just before Ji Hu entered the door, he was admonishing the humble official, did you leave Shanyang privately?"

Ning's at the side couldn't help but let out an "ah".

Lu Jiying said, "How did you answer?"

The county magistrate said: "The humble official told him that the county magistrate has not left, and we met in the morning, maybe he has something to go out."

Lu Jiying said, "What's his reaction?"

The county magistrate anxiously said: "He sneered a few times, with a look of disbelief. My lord, thank God, you came back just in time."

Lu Jiying patted the county magistrate on the shoulder, pondered for a moment and said, "Go back immediately, hold Wu Wendeng, and say that you have found me, and come back immediately."

The county magistrate nodded and rushed into the yamen.

Lu Jiying said to the county lieutenant, "Go find me a jar of wine."

The county lieutenant was stunned: "Looking for, looking for wine?"

Lu Jiying smiled and said: "You heard me right, I just want you to find wine, go!"

The county lieutenant nodded and rushed into the Yamen.

Ning asked nervously, "Brother, what should we do now?"

Lu Jiying said: "Sister Xian, don't panic, brother Yu has his own way.",

As he said that, he whispered to Ji Hu: "You drive the carriage to the back door, and help the madam to enter through the back door."

Ning asked with concern: "You, are you okay?"

Lu Jiying smiled and said, "Don't worry."

……

Shanyang County Government.

Wu Wendeng sat on the main couch in the second hall with a gloomy expression.

The county magistrate led a servant into the hall with refreshments: "Lord Changshi, please have some refreshments."

Wu Wendeng glanced at him and said coldly, "Why, haven't you found Magistrate Lu yet?"

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "I have already sent someone, and I will arrive as soon as I think about it."

Wu Wendeng said with a sinister sneer, "I'll be there soon? I've been sitting here for an hour. Every time you come in, you use these words to prevaricate me. What's your intention?"

The county magistrate was taken aback and said: "I dare not prevaricate Mr. Changshi. I just sent a yamen servant looking for Lu county magistrate to report that he has been found..."

Wu Wendeng asked forcefully, "Where is the man?"

The county magistrate replied, "I'll be there soon."

Wu Wendeng sneered: "I don't think he can make it!"

Suddenly, he yelled: "Tell me, where is Lu Jiying?"

The county magistrate was so frightened that he trembled all over: "Please be patient for a moment, my lord."

At this time, Lu Jiying had already changed into his official uniform and rushed towards Ertang.

The county lieutenant waited in front of the door with the wine jar in his hand.

Lu Jiying ran to the county lieutenant out of breath, took the wine jar, gulped it several times and said, "Tell me, has anything happened in the county recently?"

The county lieutenant hurriedly said: "My lord, there was a heavy rain in Shanyang the night before yesterday..."

Lu Jiying glared at him and said, "I asked you what happened, why did you say the rainstorm?"

The county lieutenant explained: "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."

Lu Jiying picked up the wine jar and took another two sips: "Speak, quickly."

The county lieutenant said: "After the heavy rain, a landslide on the northern slope of Wushan Mountain overwhelmed more than a dozen houses."

Lu Jiying asked while drinking: "Did you hurt someone?"

The county lieutenant said, "No."

Lu Jiying suddenly said angrily: "Don't just say it's useless, pick the important ones."

The county lieutenant thought for a while and said: "Oh, yes, the governor's office moved a document a few days ago, saying that Mr. Di Renjie, the Jiangnan Dao's deposed envoy, is about to arrive, and all government officials should deal with it carefully, and don't talk too much."

Lu Jiying put down the wine jar: "Oh? Master Di Renjie?"

The county lieutenant said, "Exactly."

……

With a "bang", Wu Wendeng slapped the coffee table heavily, stood up abruptly, and sternly shouted at the county magistrate who was standing next: "I take you as a bold follower for blatantly fabricating lies to deceive the magistrate, really! Is it bearable or unbearable!"

The county magistrate fell to his knees with a "thud" and kowtowed again and again: "I don't dare for a lowly position, I don't dare for a lowly position!"

Wu Wendeng snorted heavily and said, "Lu Jiying left the flooded area without authorization and disappeared. You think I really don't know! Tell me, where did he go?
Today, you just have to tell the truth, otherwise, I will convict you of lying to the superior! "

The hall door opened with a "bang", and Lu Jiying slammed in.

Wu Wendeng was taken aback for a moment.

Lu Jiying staggered two steps, fell to his knees with a "thump", kowtowed again and again, breathed out the smell of alcohol, and shouted with his tongue out: "Lu Jiying, a low-ranking officer, didn't know that the superior was coming. I'm sorry to welcome you. I beg for forgiveness!"

Wu Wendeng looked at Lu Jiying, who was kneeling, and felt a pungent smell of alcohol blowing towards his face.

Wu Wendeng quickly covered his mouth and nose, and snorted heavily: "Get up and answer."

Lu Jiying hurriedly stood up: "Xie Changshi, sir, sir!"

As he spoke, he belched and exhaled a foul breath of alcohol.

Wu Wendeng frowned and said, "Magistrate Lu, where were you when you were on duty?"

Lu Jiying said with a playful smile: "Master, I have nothing to do in the yamen, go out, eat, eat, eat two glasses of water and wine."

Wu Wendeng said disgustedly: "It seems that you are drunk again!"

Lu Jiying smiled and said, "Not drunk, not drunk, just a little bit drunk."

Wu Wendeng said angrily: "What are you slightly drunk, you are obviously drunk!"

Lu Jiying grinned and said, "My lord says I'm drunk, but I can't be blamed for being humble."

Wu Wendeng looked at him and said coldly: "Magistrate Lu, I heard that you left the administrative office a few days ago. Where did you go?"
