Chapter 2946
On the roof of the prefect's inner hall, Yan Qing gently placed the tiles on it.
He was furious in his heart, he didn't expect Li Gu to be such a shameless villain.
He calmly analyzed it, and finally decided to save Li Gu's life.
If Li Gu was killed, Liang Zhongshu would definitely be angered, and Lu Junyi would be convicted of treason.
Furthermore, Lu Junyi did not believe that Li Gu had betrayed him. If Li Gu was killed, Lu Junyi would definitely be angry.
Only by keeping Li Gu, can Lu Junyi see what this thief looks like.
He followed Li Gu secretly, and seeing him leave the magistrate's house, he did not leave, but instead went to a nearby prison.
Here, Li Gu found Cai Fu, the cell leader.
He gave Cai Fu a silver ticket worth a thousand gold, and asked him to "take care" of Lu Junyi in it.
Cai Fu frowned and said, "Butler Li, Duke Yan is also your master, do you really want him to die that much?"
Li Gu smiled awkwardly, "Your Excellency also knows that the case of my master's collusion with bandits was reported by a villain. If he is still alive, he will be a villain when he comes out. So, please find a way to help the villain." Once. After the matter is completed, the villain will have a big thank you."
Cai Fu put away the silver bill and said, "I can collect money, but I can't kill people. Lu Junyi is a criminal wanted by the court. If something happens in prison, the magistrate will definitely investigate me. Go back and wait for the news. When will there be a chance."
Li Gu said anxiously, "Capital crimes can be forgiven, my lord can find a way to make him suffer some living crimes!"
Cai Fu looked at him with disgust, but he still had a smile on his face and said, "It's natural, just don't worry, Steward Li."
Hearing that he agreed to himself, Li Gu thanked him again and again, and left here.
Cai Fu watched him leave, spit on the ground and cursed, "Shameless villain, really deserve to die."
He turned around and went to the death row, took out the bank note, put it in front of Lu Junyi and said, "According to the logic, Mr. Cai shouldn't be involved in the family affairs of the Duke's family. But your housekeeper is too shameless, and he gave me this just now, let me A black hand against you."
Lu Junyi's tiger eyebrows frowned, and he picked up the bank note and said in surprise, "Is this the insider note of our Qilin bank?"
This bank note is divided into inside and outside.
The domestic bills are Lu Junyi's private money, and usually only Li Gu and members of the Lu family can use them.
"how can that be?"
Lu Junyi's hands were on the door of the death cell.
He remembered what Yan Qing had said to him, the expression on his face kept changing, and finally he almost gritted his teeth and cursed, "This shameless villain."
Cai Fu said to him, "Your Majesty is in trouble, and only you are the one who really works for him. Please open your eyes and see clearly whether the people around you are black or white."
Lu Junyi calmed down quickly after going through life and death on the battlefield, and thanked Cai Fu, "Thank you brother for telling the truth. If Lu survives this calamity, he will definitely repay him with a generous gift."
Cai Fu raised his hands and cupped his fists and said, "I, Cai, respect your Lu family. Without you, the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures would still be in the hands of the northerners, and I don't ask the Duke for anything in return."
Lu Junyi nodded with him, admiring Cai Fu even more.
Official documents from Dali Temple, Ministry of Justice and Yushitai were quickly sent back to Daming Mansion through the transmission channel.
The three divisions of the imperial court held a joint trial and agreed with Liang Zhongshu's opinion.
Because there is no key material evidence, under the joint operation of Tong Guan and Cai Jing.
The imperial court only sentenced Duke Yan Lu Junyi to be assassinated and exiled to Xiliang Prefecture, stripped of his reputation, but did not take Lu Junyi's life.
Originally, the place of exile of the Daming Mansion was in Penglai Salmonella in Qizhou, but it was only because Qizhou was occupied by Song Gongming.
The biggest punishment now is Xiliang Prefecture, thousands of miles away from Daming Mansion, far away in the Western Desert.
The court's intentions were also very clear. If Lu Junyi could not be killed, he would die of old age in the desert.
There are many shady activities in this, and it is a good ending for all parties.
After Liang Zhongshu received the official document, he immediately brought Lu Junyi to the lobby and announced his verdict.
Lu Junyi stood blankly in the lobby for a while, staring at Liang Zhongshu, not knowing what to say.
Their Lu family has made such great achievements for the Song Dynasty, how could the emperor not think of the slightest kindness, and so credulously believed the villain's slander.
Liang Zhongshu and Lu Junyi sneered and said, "Mr. Yan, oh no, you are now a prisoner with no reputation. You and I have lived together in Daming Mansion for many years. Forgive me, you should thank me a lot this time. If I hadn't interceded for you in the crime, your head would have fallen to the ground. I heard that Xiliang Prefecture has extremely beautiful scenery and borders Xixia Kingdom. It is an excellent place. You were assassinated here, it is your good fortune And blessings. In your next life, you can live there well!"
Lu Junyi gritted his teeth, and said, "Officer dog, you must die!"
Liang Zhongshu laughed disdainfully, "The winner is king and the loser is bandit. You can scold whatever you want, as long as you are happy. It's just a pity that the money and publicity accumulated by your Lu family for so many years will be turned into smoke in this dynasty."
He patted the gavel and asked someone to take Lu Junyi down.
Yan Qing breathed a sigh of relief in the dark, the matter finally came to an end, and his heart sank.
There are transmission channels between the states of the Song Dynasty, although Daming Mansion and Xiliang Prefecture cannot be reached directly.
But it can still be conveyed through other places.
But the assassinated prisoner can't walk through this transmission channel, he can only walk through it step by step.
The road was high and the road was long, and nearly half of the prisoners died halfway.
The officials have never pursued this matter, and everyone knows the way, but the prisoner's family did not put enough money.
After Li Gu received the news, he immediately found Dong Chao and Xue Ba who escorted Lu Junyi on the road.
This is what the two jailers do, and they go out for a year and a half at a time.
Li Gu gave the two of them a thousand gold coins, but instead of begging them to take care of Lu Junyi, he asked them to end Lu Junyi halfway.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba readily accepted, they had never thought of actually going to Xiliang Prefecture.
That place is notoriously desolate, and it would probably take three to five years to get there.
They put shackles on Lu Junyi, tattooed gold letters on his face, clasped his wrist with iron chains, and prepared to take him away.
Cai Fu and his brother Cai Qing stuffed them with ten gold coins, and hosted a banquet for Lu Junyi alone for him to eat the last meal.
Cai Fu and Lu Junyi reminded, "Duke, this place is thousands of miles away from Xiliang Prefecture. The court's decision clearly wants you to die halfway. If you refuse, I can tell your adopted son and let him Let's figure it out."
Lu Junyi drank his wine, sighed sullenly, "I, Lu, have been favored by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. I would rather die than do unrighteous things. Besides, the court has treated me favorably and left me with a life. It's just thirty years old. In any case, I, Lu Junyi, will still come back alive."
"Guogong is really a loyal and honest person, Cai is ashamed."
Cai Fu sighed, knowing that Lu Junyi couldn't be persuaded.
This Yan Guogong has never eaten the fireworks of the world, and he doesn't know the dangers of this officialdom.
No matter how much he said now, Lu Junyi would not accept it.
He toasted Lu Junyi with his brothers, and after having a big meal with him, he asked Dong Chao and Xue Ba to escort Lu Junyi on the road.
When they left, the two gave them another one hundred gold coins and asked them to help take care of Lu Junyi.
Dong Chao and Xue Ba fully agreed, but in their hearts they regarded Lu Junyi as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
