Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince
Chapter 64: Caught in a Cell
Soon, a group of people surrounded the outside aggressively.
Lu Yanke shouted, "How dare you! Who dares to break into Jingyin Building without permission?"
"Oh, what a great official power!" As soon as the words fell, an adult wearing the official robe of the Dali Temple rushed over with a cold face.
"From the tone of your voice, I can't enter your wine shop."
Lord Li Sheng, the Secretary of the Dali Temple, looked at Lu Yanke coldly.
Lu Yanke's heart skipped a beat.
His face was immediately filled with smiles: "Master Li, my shop is just a small business, thank you for troubling me."
He is of the same rank as Lord Li. If he had not been guilty, there would have been no need for him to try to please Li Sheng in this way.
Lu Yanke kept winking at Li Sheng. As they were officials in the same dynasty, they both understood each other.
But Lord Li was not convinced: "Since it is a small business, what is Lord Lu afraid of? Is there something shameful going on?"
Seeing that Lu Yanke looked guilty, it seemed that the clues he got were all true.
The Dali Temple is investigating a case and they would not make such a big fuss if they didn't have any evidence.
Lu Yanke gave a wink and the servant hurried out through the back door.
"Stop him! Don't let anyone go!" Lord Li shouted.
The customer who had just been bargaining had disappeared before the Dali Temple officers and soldiers rushed in.
The servants were blocked, and Lu Yanke became anxious.
He knew what the consequences would be if the salt in the basement was discovered!
Now we have to find a way to get someone to notify Prince Jin. Prince Jin will not allow a Dali Temple Secretary to run wild here.
Lu Yanke smiled and walked over: "Master Li, let the brothers taste the strong liquor from my winery. This liquor is unique in Shangjing."
Lord Li looked at him coldly: "Lord Lu! Don't interfere with official business!"
At this time, a waiter said something in Lu Yanke's ear.
Tell him that one of our guys climbed over the wall and escaped when no one was paying attention.
Lu Yanke breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope someone can go and report it.
His tense nerves suddenly relaxed.
Lu Yanke no longer had the humble tone he had just used: "Sir, I am doing serious business here. I wonder what exactly you want to do?"
Lord Li saw that Lu Yanke's back had straightened a lot, and cursed him in his heart, "What a fool!"
He did something that cost him his head, and yet he thought someone could save him.
They let that person out on purpose.
Just to see if I can catch a big fish.
"Search!" Lord Li gave the order, and the officers and soldiers immediately began searching everywhere.
Lu Yanke also got angry.
He and Lord Li are both of the fifth rank, and he has never met a colleague who is so difficult to talk to.
Let him search! When Prince Jin arrives, we'll see how he explains to Prince Jin.
Lu Yanke didn't tolerate him anymore. He just turned his face away and looked at Li Sheng coldly.
The officers and soldiers did not destroy anything, but just searched every corner.
Half an hour passed, and they still didn't find what they wanted.
Lu Yanke stood up straight: "I wonder when did I ever offend you, sir?"
Lord Li did not respond.
The report we received today is very convincing and does not seem like a deliberately false case.
Is it too early for Lu Yanke to be happy?
"Sir, there is a secret room here." A soldier shouted at Li Sheng.
Lu Yanke's expression changed.
Lord Li glanced at him coldly, and Lu Yanke's back, which had just straightened, quickly collapsed.
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Lord Li's mouth.
I really can’t cry without seeing the coffin.
He thought that he had a backer and did not take the Dali Temple seriously.
But where is this support now?
The cold sweat on Lu Yanke's back soaked his clothes.
The place where King Jin contacted him was only a quarter of an hour away.
Now more than half an hour has passed, and King Jin's men have not shown up at all.
If these people found bags of salt in the dark room, Lu Yanke couldn't imagine how he would clean up the mess.
He took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and quietly approached Lord Li.
"Sir, can you please talk to me for a moment?" He said in an almost begging tone.
Lord Li sneered, "Are you scared? It's too late!"
The sound happened to be heard by everyone present.
Lu Yanke clenched his fists in anger, but he could do nothing.
"It's salt!" a soldier shouted, and Lord Li rushed over immediately.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Yanke ran away.
However, after running a few steps, he was blocked by Li Sheng's sword.
"Master Lu, what does this mean?"
"Lord Li! I just have to go to the bathroom urgently." Lu Yanke pretended to be holding his urine.
"You two, go to the toilet with Lord Lu!"
Lu Yanke wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
He gave Lord Li a fierce look and said, "Sir, don't you have any mercy?"
"The Dali Temple has never had any mercy. If Lord Lu has not done anything he shouldn't have done, naturally no one can embarrass you."
"you……"
"Take him away!" Li Shengli shouted.
The soldier immediately twisted his arm: "Go!"
This white salt is all worth money.
Even the soldiers who came to search looked at Lu Yanke as if he were a dead person.
This Lord Lu is an official appointed by the imperial court. He is really courting death!
Can he touch the salt from the Daqing Dynasty?
"Take them all away!" Li Sheng ordered.
The guys in Jingyin Building looked pale as death. Some of them had no idea that contraband salt was hidden here.
Who knew that a shop assistant could lose his life?
Lu Yanke killed them.
Lord Li looked at the three words "Jingyinlou" and wondered if there was something wrong with his brain when naming a winery this way.
Does muting mean telling others to shut up?
Now, those who have committed capital crimes have been brought to justice, and there will be no voice here from now on.
Being pushed and taken to the Dali Temple, Lu Yanke was still struggling.
If you go to the Dali Temple prison, you will be skinned alive even if you don't die.
"Let me go, I want to see Prince Jin." Lu Yanke panicked and didn't care whether he should expose Prince Jin or not.
He wants to save his life.
Lord Li said coldly: "Lord Lu, do you think King Jin will come at this time?"
"Master Li! Please be kind and let me go today. I will never forget your kindness in the future."
He took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and said, "I have money. If you let me go today, I will give you a lot of money."
"You know, bribery is aggravated. And Lord Lu, have you forgotten that all the money will be confiscated when you are in the Dali Temple Prison? In addition to changing into prison clothes, everything on your body will be stripped off. The money will no longer be yours."
Lord Li thought, no wonder Lu Yanke was so bold as to sell contraband salt, this guy really doesn't have a very good brain.
Even though there were witnesses and evidence, he still thought he could get away with it.
Seeing that money could not move Lord Li, he began to speak harshly: "I am King Jin's man. If you capture me, King Jin will not let you go."
"Then wait until King Jin comes to get you out and shut his mouth."
Lu Yanke kept chattering all the way, and Li Sheng was too lazy to talk to him anymore.
Lu Yanke, who was stuffed with a cloth strip, glared at Li Sheng.
But there was nothing I could do but keep twisting my body.
It was not until he was searched and thrown into jail that Lu Yanke let out a howl like a slaughtered pig.
There were rows of torture instruments on the wall, and the smell of blood rushed into the nose from the dark and damp prison.
"Let me out, I want to see King Jin."
Lu Yanke's shrill voice echoed in the cell for a long time.
Li Sheng went to report to the Dali Temple.
Ye Jinhu, the Dali Temple official, asked, "He has been clamoring to see Prince Jin?"
"Yes, when my subordinates were searching, he sent someone to tip off!"
"Has King Jin appeared?"
"no!"
"How come another idiot was caught?" Lord Ye had a headache. Now that Prince Jin was involved, things became much more difficult.
At this time, the subordinate came to report: "Sir, the eldest lady is here."
Lord Ye was even more troubled: "Why is she here to join in the fun?"
