Royal Gold Magistrate

The room fell silent.

No one thought that Fang Zheng would kill him as soon as he said to kill him!

So straightforward, not muddled at all.

Before Fang Zhengyi let go of his hand, Master Lu struggled twice and died.

Pulled out the dagger and wiped it on his body, looked at the other trembling hostages and said, "Continue with the interrogation, and ask me about all the evil things the Lu family has done."

"Slaughter the two criminals first, and throw a corpse down from the window every half an hour."

"The rest who do not cooperate will be executed!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the South Tower.

Du Lingfeng stared at the scene in front of him in a daze.

I just felt my throat was too tight, looked at Zhao Lie and said nervously: "Your master won't kill me too!"

Zhao Lie smiled: "No, you are a meritorious person, maybe you will be rewarded!"

........

With a sullen face, Fang Zheng hurriedly ran out of the south building.

As soon as Wang Qian met, he immediately asked, "Master Fang, what's going on inside?"

Fangzheng shook his head: "Grandpa Lu is still safe, but the thieves don't have more than 20 people like you said!"

"I think there are only a dozen of them.. Maybe the reason why they didn't negotiate is to delay us, and quietly sent someone to find the Lu family's bank!"

When Wang Qian heard this, he suddenly realized!

That makes sense!No wonder these people don't talk about anything.

Big households like the Lu family are worried about putting their money in the bank, and usually have their own silver treasury.

It turned out to be eyeing the bank.

Wang Qian sneered and said: "This group of people have such a big appetite, and they still think that they can leave after stealing the treasury? It's just wishful thinking!"

"By the way, Master Fang, why did they let you out so easily?"

"There is not enough food in the building, there is internal strife! They demand to send some food, and if they don't send it for a while, they will start killing people."

"Master Wang, you must hold on at this moment, and you must not give it to them!"

Wang Qian smiled and said: "Don't worry, I still know the seriousness of Mr. Fang's matter. Thank you Mr. Fang for taking the risk of negotiating with those villains today. You should be tired. I will send someone to escort you to find a place to rest now."

Fangzheng waved his hand: "No way! Save people to the end, send Buddha to the west, how can you give up halfway?"

"Where is the Lu family's bank? I'll send someone to search it!"

"Master Fang is joking, how do I know where the Lu family's bank is?"

Wang Qian wanted to cry, but why couldn't this man go away, so he stayed here.

He really didn't know about the Lu family's treasury.

His cooperation with the Lu family is very simple. The Lu family gave him money, and he helped to clear up some relationships and handle unjust, false and wrong cases.

Other than that it's gone!

How could he know such a family secret as Yinku?

Fangzheng didn't know that he didn't know, so he turned back to his team and found Bai Rui.

Bai Rui is used to stealing, so it's perfect to entrust this kind of thing to him.

"Bai Rui, go and find out where the Lu family's bank is. It's a very important matter and you must do it as soon as possible!"

Bai Rui was a little stage frightened, and said in a low voice: "Master, this house is too big. I have never stolen such a big house. I may not find it in a while..."

"What are you talking about! I'll send you a few more people! The house's big bank must also be big, so I'll ride a horse and look for it in an upright manner. We don't have enough money on hand, and we need money to do things. This matter is very important, and I must find it today! "

Bai Rui nodded in agreement, and then led a group of people away to look for the bank.

On Wang Qian's side, a man in a headhunting uniform approached Wang Qian, pulled him to a place where there was no one else, and said in a low voice: "Master Wang, I just heard that Mr. Fang said that he was looking for a bank. Do you think so?" Didn't there be rumors about the Lu family in the capital, and someone was sent here to check the accounts?"

"If there is an account book hidden in the treasury, and the Lu family has recorded something that shouldn't be recorded, then let's..."

Wang Qian was startled: "Yu Hai, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that although something happened to the Lu family before, it was still under your control. But now that outsiders are intervening and the situation has changed, you should have made plans earlier."

"In case there is Lu's account book in the treasury, and there are some unfavorable things recorded in it...then let's simply take Fang Zhengyi! Everything will be pushed to those robbers, as for the Lu family? ...Of course it was also destroyed by the robbers."

"The Lu family destroyed the family and destroyed the ledger...there will be no evidence. Even if the superiors come to investigate, master, you will have no worries."

Wang Qian sneered after hearing this: "Yu Hai, you haven't made any progress after following me for so many years, but this courage has made a lot of progress. You dare to kill the governor?"

"Don't dare, I'm worried about your safety!" Yu Hai said aggrievedly.

Wang Qian sighed: "It's not advisable to act rashly. If they really find the bank, you can take someone to escort Mr. Fang to the bank to check...By the way, find out the ledger. If there is really something wrong with the ledger, report it in time. I'll check Fang Zhengyi's tone again."

As Yu Hai retreated, Wang Qian regained his calm expression and walked to Fang Zhengyi's side.

He stretched out his hand and said, "Master Fang, since you have decided to stay here, you should not talk too much, as an official."

"Look, I'm tired after such a long time. I ordered my servants to buy some food and wine. Let's take a rest in the pavilion over there first."

"Okay! Master Wang is thoughtful."

After waiting for a long time, the food and wine were ready, and the two began to exchange glasses.

Fangzheng raised his wine glass and said with emotion: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen as soon as I entered the city today. It's a pity that I haven't had time to fully enjoy Haiyuan City."

"However, taking a quick look at the flowers when entering the city, it is enough to see Master Wang's achievements in governance."

Wang Qian smiled: "Master Fang is absurdly praised, and it's just a trivial effort. I don't know why the imperial court sent you to govern the place this time? As far as I know, nothing major has happened recently."

"It's really all right." Fang Zheng put down his wine glass and looked at Wang Qian: "Have Mr. Wang heard of Liu Xun's case?"

"I've heard that Mr. Fang's thunderous tactics, the lower officials admire!"

"Then... do you know Liu Xun?"

"I don't know, I have heard about it, but I have no friendship with this person."

Fangzheng carefully observed Wang Qian's expression and found that he was not unusual, so he continued: "In recent years, the world has been peaceful, but the case of Liu Xun has exposed many problems. .Hey... This time, I couldn’t go home for another two or three years.”

Wang Qian's heart tightened, and he raised his wine cup and said, "Is there anything to gain from this trip, my lord?"

Fangzheng sneered and said, "It's just you and me, so there's no need to hide it. There are some things that everyone understands, and the world is peaceful in the first place, so why take it so seriously if it's just a formality?"

Wang Qian didn't dare to answer, and continued to lower his head to pick up food.

"I think these thieves and bandits should be executed within two days. The city gate has been closed for five days. Many people's livelihoods have been affected. Why don't we just open the city gate?"

Wang Qian paused, and immediately retorted: "No! This group of people are very capable, and they can hold the entire Lu family hostage overnight!"

"Especially now, they are already outlaws. If they are allowed to run into the city, I am afraid they will kill them!"

"Young people still have a chance to escape, what about the others? This is also a helpless move to protect the elderly and children."

"Well, it's reasonable! Mr. Wang Gaoyi! I offer you a toast!"

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Bai Rui came back panting with a group of people...
