After she finished speaking, she stretched out her fingers and poked Lu Xiao again and again.
Lu Xiao really had no way to deal with her and could only look towards Pingyang.
"Stop laughing! If you keep laughing, your husband will be taken advantage of by this crazy girl."
Pingyang's face immediately turned red, and she raised her hand and lightly punched Lu Xiao: "What husband? We haven't even gotten married yet."
Just like that, the three of them walked and quarreled, and soon arrived at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion.
The poetry reading lasted a long time, and it was already getting late.
The two girls played for a day and it was time to go home.
Lu Xiao naturally had this courtesy.
However, after watching the two of them enter Prince Yu's Mansion, Lu Xiao's expression suddenly changed.
Becoming murderous.
He did not forget to deal with the matter of Zhang Yi, the legitimate son of the Earl of Pingyuan and the son of the Minister of War.
However, how to deal with this matter still needs to be carefully considered.
Killing the two of them directly would be easy, but it wouldn't be a pleasant experience.
Thinking about what the two did in the original timeline, apart from the fact that they were torn into pieces, it was all considered Lu Xiao's mercy.
Death is sometimes the easiest punishment.
Living a life worse than death is the real horror.
In this case, we must make good use of our intelligence advantage.
If I remember correctly, Pingyuan Bo has a human trafficking organization under his control.
This organization is responsible for trafficking children from all over Dafeng to the capital.
Provide Emperor Yuan Jing with what he needs for cultivation.
You read that right.
Emperor Yuan Jing, in his pursuit of immortality, is no longer considered a human being.
He has many similar operations.
This human trafficking organization is just one of them.
However, with Emperor Yuan Jing backing him up, it would still be difficult to get Pingyuan Bo through the human trafficking organization.
If this thing wants to succeed, it has to be big enough.
Two, three, four, seven, thirty (four), and one must also take advantage of the situation.
As for whose influence he was borrowing, Lu Xiao was also very clear in his mind.
Currently, in the entire Dafeng, there is only one person who dares to challenge Emperor Yuan Jing head-on.
Wei Yuan, leader of the eunuch party.
The leader of the night watchmen, Wei Qingyi.
Action is worse than intention.
Lu Xiao has always been a straightforward person.
He doesn't want to have too many dreams at night.
So he immediately turned around and left.
It's actually very simple to lure Wei Yuan into the game.
Just throw some bait to the night watchman.
There are actually a lot of baits like this in the capital.
It's just that no one noticed these things before.
In the blink of an eye, the night passed.
The next morning, Lu Xiao drove a horse-drawn carriage to the night watchman's office.
Then he carried down several ragged little beggars from the carriage.
These little beggars were not very old, the oldest one was only six or seven years old.
But besides being poor, they all had varying degrees of physical disability.
Either a broken arm or a broken leg.
They were the ones Lu Xiao had been busy with last night, looking for bait.
In order to gather these children, Lu Xiao destroyed nine beggars' dens last night.
And killed many people.
There was no way, he really couldn't help it.
Originally, I just wanted to take revenge on the son of the Earl of Pingyuan, but after what happened last night.
In Lu Xiao's heart, this matter was no longer just a personal grudge.
Pingyuan Bo's crime deserves death.
Emperor Yuan Jing deserves to be cut into pieces.
However, Emperor Yuan Jing is still unable to deal with Lu Xiao.
Then let's collect some interest from Pingyuanbo first.
“Ding~ding~ding~”
As the huge gong sounded at the gate of the night watchman's office, a group of gongs rushed out from the courtyard.
"Who strikes the gong?"
The Night Watchmen's Office was under the jurisdiction of the Dafeng court and was responsible for carrying out reconnaissance, arrests, and interrogations.
They also participated in gathering military intelligence and instigating enemy generals to defect.
It does not belong to the Six Ministries, nor to the military system.
It was considered the royal family's intelligence organization, and also the guillotine hanging over the heads of all officials.
All officials in Dafeng have heard this saying:
If you do not do evil things during the day, you will not be afraid of the night watchman.
Therefore, any case involving an imperial official could be reported to the Night Watchman's Office.
However, as ordinary people, unless they are forced into a desperate situation, they will definitely not fight to the death with officials.
This resulted in the night watchmen's office having to deal with cases that were either directly assigned by the imperial court or reported by lower-level offices that were unable to handle them.
On the contrary, there are very few cases where people proactively come forward to report the crime.
Don't be fooled by the large bronze gong at the gate of the night watchman's office.
But this big gong may not be sounded once a year.
At least when Lu Xiao struck the gong, a thick layer of dust had already fallen on it.
Seeing someone coming out, Lu Xiao finally put down the gong hammer in his hand.
Then he turned around and spoke loudly.
"I am Lu Xiao, a student from Yunlu Academy!"
Lu Xiao was very arrogant.
There was no way around it, even though the Night Watchmen Office was extremely powerful in the court.
But its members are almost all warriors.
And Wu (Zhao Zhao) Fu is at the bottom of the contempt chain of many cultivation systems.
So whether it was the Confucian cultivators of Yunlu Academy or the sorcerers of Sitianjian.
When facing the night watchmen, they always look down on the sky.
You, a crude warrior, are qualified to talk to me?
Lu Xiao was merely displaying the proper demeanor of an ordinary Confucian cultivator when meeting a warrior.
In this era, sometimes, if you speak respectfully to others, they may feel strange.
Since we want to lure Wei Yuan into this, we must not act suspiciously.
After all, Wei Yuan's wisdom is definitely the best in the Dafeng world.
After hearing Lu Xiao's name, the attitudes of the bronze gongs immediately became humble.
"So you're a student from Yunlu Academy. I wonder what's the important matter that has you striking the gong?"
Lu Xiao snorted coldly, "You can't even tell that? You're truly a bunch of uncouth fellows. Ringing the gong is naturally to report a crime, but could it be possible that I'm here for tea?"
Chapter 116 Reporting a Case
Although Lu Xiao's attitude was very arrogant.
But the night watchmen had long been accustomed to it.
There was no other way. When the night watchmen in the yamen were solving cases, they had to seek help from the sorcerers of the Imperial Observatory and the Confucian monks of the Yunlu Academy.
After all, the sorcerer's qi-reading technique and the Confucianist's heart-searching technique are both top-notch magic to assist in solving crimes.
One who can tell if someone is lying.
One that compels others to tell the truth.
Of course, these two techniques also have their shortcomings.
First, if the person being questioned has a magical device that blocks their aura, the spell will naturally be ineffective.
Second, if the person being questioned remains silent, there is nothing you can do.
Fortunately, neither of these issues was a big deal.
For the former, magical instruments are rare, and aura shielding instruments are extremely precious, with only a few available in the entire world.
As for the latter, with the torture techniques of the night watchmen's office to assist, who could hold back from speaking?
However, in this way, Wu Fu is already at the bottom of the contempt chain of many cultivation systems.
In addition, I would often seek help from Yunlu Academy.
So the night watchmen at the yamen naturally became even more breathless after seeing Lu Xiao.
Besides, Zhao Shou recently joined the cabinet.
The Yunlu Medical Qi Eighty-four Qisiwu (Six ()) Academy is no longer what it used to be.
"So you want to report a crime, sir. What case do you want to report?"
The leader, Tongluo, was now full of flattery, not daring to offend Lu Xiao in the slightest.
Lu Xiao glanced at him and said, "You're just a copper gong. What qualifications do you have to ask me? Send out your golden gongs."
The copper gong nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I will report this to Master Jinluo right away. Young Master, why don't you wait inside for a moment?"
Lu Xiao nodded slightly, then raised his hand and pointed at the group of beggars behind him.
"Take good care of them. They are all victims of the crime."
Tongluo Man glanced at the beggars, and though he had doubts in his heart, he did not dare to ask any more questions.
Then Lu Xiao walked into the night watchman's office with such a swagger.
Whenever he passed by, people would immediately bow silently when they saw the clothes he wore as a student of Yunlu Academy.
Even the silver gong is not immune.
In the night watchmen's office, the lowest level was the white servants, who had no official position and did miscellaneous work.
The second is the bronze gong, which is used by a serious night watchman, at least a martial artist at the Qi Refining Realm.
Going up is the Silver Gong, where you can enjoy the treatment of a hundred households.
Above the Silver Gong is the Gold Gong, the highest level position, and each Gold Gong is in charge of seven Silver Gongs.
