Chapter 243 Impeachment
"Who is that person who bribed you?"

The coldness in Lu Ji's eyes was even worse, what a vicious scheming!He just felt that these three people didn't mean to take their lives. He thought that he had offended someone when he was adjudicating the case before, so he provoked someone to teach him, but he didn't expect that these people came to Qingchi.

In Daxing, women are emperors, so the status of women is not inferior to that of men, but no matter how open the folk customs are, for a woman, chastity and innocence are extremely important.

This person wanted him to see Qingchi being murdered with his own eyes, so it can be seen that the person who carried out this poisonous scheme hated Qingchi because of him.

Thinking of this, a bland face that seemed too rough for a woman suddenly appeared in Lu Ji's mind.

Seeing that Lu Ji's face was frosty, the leader of the murderer immediately lowered his voice, and said submissively: "Actually, the villain doesn't know who is paying the money. They come to us through middlemen every time. You I also know that some people are inconvenient to be known due to their identities, and we also have faith and cannot disclose the identity of the buyer."

Before Lu Ji could make a sound, Wu Zhiyu sneered and said, "Bah, you are still loyal to these lowly things! Be honest, otherwise the Imperial Army Governor's Mansion has plenty of means to make your life worse than death!"

Originally thought that these people were just looking for troubles for the land base, but now it seems that they came to Qingchi, they were ordered by the emperor to protect Qingchi to get home safely, now that this matter is involved with Qingchi, then they can't stand by .

Hearing the name of the forbidden army, the bodies of those three people trembled like chaff.

"My lord, I'm telling the truth! The person who contacted us is called Rat. He often goes to restaurants and teahouses, and has contacts with many traffickers and pawns. When someone wants to bring bad luck to someone, he will come to us! Others may not be able to find him, but I know that he has a good widow in Mao'er Alley, and he will go to her every now and then, and my lord may be able to catch her in the past now!"

Lu Ji squinted his eyes, recruited a few guards, and asked them to go to Mao'er Alley to catch people.At the same time, he ordered two servants, "Go get drunk and find out who is coming and going tonight!"

Qingchi would go drinking with him today, it was completely on a whim, so it is very likely that someone caught them together while drunk, and then contacted the three rascals in a hurry.

"My lord, the villain also uses people's money to do things. Now that everything is recruited, do you think it's time to let us go?"

Seeing Lu Ji's pale face, the murderer at the head asked cautiously.

Lu Ji glanced at them coldly, "Are you going out to work for tigers after I let you go? The person you met today is an official ordered by the imperial court. Even if you commit such murders, you still want to destroy people's innocence! Immediately put them in the cell, and wait for all your crimes to be investigated. Finally, count the crimes and punish them!"

"Sir, forgive me!"

When the three heard that they were going to jail, they cried and begged for mercy.

This time, before Lu Ji could speak, the yamen servants had already lifted him up and dragged him down unceremoniously.

Wu Zhiyu folded his arms around his chest, and looked at Lu Ji with another eye, "Master Lu is really good at it!"

"Don't dare!" Lu Ji twitched the corner of his mouth, "I still have something to trouble you all."

Wu Zhiyu clasped her fists and said, "Lord Lu, it's okay to say it!"

"Go to the residence of Feng Yuzhang, a doctor in the Ministry of War, and keep an eye on Feng Shiyang."

Upon hearing Lu Ji's words, Wu Zhiyu showed a frightened expression on his face, and immediately took a few steps back.

"It's fine if you let me visit the women's boudoir at night, I'm still an ugly girl! Don't go!"

Seeing Wu Zhiyu's refusal, Lu Ji was not in a hurry, but said indifferently: "This matter is related to the safety of Lord Qing. Young General Wu was ordered by the emperor to protect Lord Qing's safety. Now that the people behind the scenes don't find out for a day, Qing Your Excellency cannot be safe, this is what the emperor entrusted. Of course, if young general Wu feels embarrassed, I believe His Royal Highness will be sympathetic, so just go to someone else."

When Wu Zhiyu heard this, he immediately frowned, and said loudly, "What's the matter?"

If the imperial husband knows that he can't even handle this errand, how can he entrust him with important tasks in the future!

Thinking of the great future ahead, Wu Zhiyu decided to endure it, and strode away with a few imperial guards who also looked bitter.

After making these arrangements, Lu Ji walked towards the back hall with tired steps.

The back hall of Shuntian Mansion is for the residence of the governor, and now Lu Ji almost takes Shuntian Mansion as his home, and the original Lu Mansion is too rare to go back.

As soon as he walked out of the lobby, he saw Uncle Yue waiting for him in the courtyard.

"Master, this old slave shouldn't have left first, otherwise you wouldn't have suffered this crime."

After speaking, Uncle Yue looked at Lu Ji's face with a little guilt.

Lu Ji touched the corner of his mouth, it was not as swollen as before, but the interview must still be very ugly.He was so focused on dealing with those three scoundrels just now that he completely forgot about this little injury.

"Uncle Yue, I have practiced martial arts with you for such a long time, and I have achieved some results, otherwise how could I have beaten those three scoundrels tonight!" Lu Ji comforted.

Uncle Yue shook his head, and said firmly: "Young master should practice martial arts for self-defense, but the old slave must not forget his duty, and will never leave the young master's side from now on!"

Lu Ji shook his head, and said, "Uncle Yue, I'm a man. My father and aunt spoiled me too much. Do you want me to go back to the old way?"

Uncle Yue was taken aback for a moment, but didn't speak, his brows were tightly frowned.

Lu Ji patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Uncle Yue, it's getting late, let's rest, there is still a tough battle tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Lu Ji walked towards the bedroom in a chic manner.

Uncle Yue looked at his back as he left, feeling relieved in his heart for his young master's growth.The souls of the Lu family can rest in peace.Now I only hope that the young master can get his wish as soon as possible, and get married with his beloved woman.

In the early morning of the next day, Yushitai's report on the impeachment of Shuntian government office Lu Ji who took the lead in committing crimes at night was presented to the imperial court.

Ning Yuezhao received a report from the imperial army last night, and knew the whole story, now seeing this nonsense notebook, she laughed out of anger.

"How do you know that Lu Ji committed the night? It's so vividly written. Could it be that the people from Yushitai also committed the night together last night?"

Her voice was not loud, even a little frivolous, but the content of her words surprised the censor who had just participated in the performance.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is naturally impossible for the ministers to do the night crime, but the house of the minister's family happens to be on Fuhui Street, next to Yinping Lane. Last night, the minister was studying in the study on the second floor of his home when he heard horseshoes coming from outside. He opened the window and looked through the window, just in time to see Master Lu passing by the street on horseback, and immediately brought another woman with him, and the two behaved intimately!"

Ning Yuezhao glanced at Jiang Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he nodded with a tense expression.The Ministry of Officials was in charge of the resumes of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Jiang Xu nodded, which meant that what the censor said was true.

But even if his family lived on the side of the street, there was no such thing as a coincidence that Lu Ji would be seen by him when he was riding by.

Yan Zhenglang was the first to stand up, and said to Ning Yuezhao, "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Ning Yuezhao nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Yan Zhenglang said: "It is true that Mr. Lu was still riding horses on the streets of the Imperial City after the curfew last night, but there is a reason for this. Mr. Lu and my daughter were drunk last night. Today, I am drinking because my daughter is too drunk and too drunk. Master Lu kindly escorted my daughter When I returned home, I didn’t want to be attacked by thieves in Yinping Lane. Because I spent a lot of effort fighting with the thieves, it was already past the curfew when Mr. Lu sent my daughter to Yan’s mansion. According to the rules of our dynasty, there are For those who are in a hurry, Tongxing should not be punished as a crime of night. Therefore, although Mr. Lu is passing by on horseback in the imperial capital after Haishi, there is a reason for the incident, so it should not be punished as a crime of night!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the imperial censor said in a strange way: "Just say that the woman in Lord Lu's arms looked familiar last night. She turned out to be Taifu Yan's daughter! Lord Qing is so proud that he even drank with the man at night. Get drunk... tsk tsk tsk..."

Ning Yuezhao frowned, what happened last night was related to Qingchi's reputation, if she didn't say it, Lu Ji's crime of committing the night would be confirmed.Although it is not a serious crime to commit a crime at night, as the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, it is really not easy for him to bear such a crime.But now that they are separated, it will inevitably cast a layer of ambiguity on the relationship between Lu Ji and Qingchi.

Yan Zhenglang looked at the censor calmly, "It's just a small gathering among colleagues. If someone hadn't tampered with Mr. Lu's carriage, it would be time for the curfew, and Mr. Lu wouldn't have to ride a horse to send his daughter off." Go back home."

He has a frank attitude, but the people in the court can't help talking about it.

At this time, a palace official entered the Chongtian Palace to report, "Your Majesty, the Shuntian government office is asking to see you outside the palace!"

Ning Yuezhao narrowed her eyes, "It's just in time, pass it on!"

"Chuan Shun Tian Fu Yin Lu Ji has an audience!"

Accompanied by the high-pitched announcement by the emcee and eunuch, Lu Ji, dressed in official uniform, stepped steadily into the Chongtian Temple under the gaze of everyone——

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

If you ignore the obvious blue and purple bruises around the corners of his mouth, he is still a handsome and handsome young man. Many people present remembered that this man is exactly the "Lu Lang" that women in the imperial capital have been thinking about recently. After her husband, the new generation of girls are the people in the dream of spring boudoir.

Ning Yuezhao looked at Lu Ji, didn't cry out, but said in a deep voice: "You came just in time, Yushitai impeached you as Shuntian governor, but took the lead in breaking the night and violating the curfew, do you have something to say?"

Lu Ji raised his head and knelt straight, "I have something to say! I want to impeach someone!"

I am trapped in the quagmire of committing crimes, and I want to impeach others?
Lu Ji's words surprised many people, and the censor was the first to sneer and said: "Master Lu, let's explain clearly what happened to him for committing the night before talking about the impeachment of others!"

Lu Ji said in a deep voice: "The matter of the impeachment of the minister is precisely related to the crime of the minister."

Ning Yuezhao said with a smile on her lips, "Oh? Then let's talk about it."

Lu Ji said loudly: "I want to impeach Feng Yuzhang, a doctor of the Ministry of War, for teaching his daughter Wufang. Feng Shiyang, as a scholar of the Imperial Academy, doesn't think about hard work and enterprising. Instead, he bribes street ruffians, intending to insult others' innocence!"
