Chapter 531: Wealth and honor are in danger

The Jinyiwei on the battlefield may not be good at fighting, but they have the expertise of such meticulous means of catching and exploring secrets. These people are naturally sensitive to whether they are followed by others, because when they were in the capital, the Jinyiwei, the Dongchang man, the secret agents of the Ministry of Justice, and the underground forces of various forces were all tempted by each other. If they didn't know who was staring behind them, they would be far from being unlucky.

The people who followed Lu Li were all veterans of the Jinyiwei. After Lu Bing restored the Jinyiwei's death, the threshold was much higher than before. However, those military households and capable border soldiers from generation to generation were selected, and those rogues who used to commit crimes by relying on the title of Jinyiwei were eliminated. These people around Lu Li had some real skills, and when riding on horseback, they naturally paid attention to the surrounding situation.

There are no experts in Cangzhou Prefecture City, so there is no way to keep an eye on it. I think it was discovered by the Jinyiwei after following it for a while.

When Lu Li was working as a tax supervisor in this mansion, he was always pampered and domineering, and his mentality was very relaxed. At this time, when he heard someone following him, and the situations he encountered in the mansion, he suddenly became a little worried and forced himself to control himself and not look back.

At least when he was sending the emperor a message to the Forbidden City, he had some courage. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to deal with it at this time. The Jinyiwei beside him couldn't help but laugh, talking about the restaurants and brothels in Cangzhou Prefecture, as if he didn't know.

When Lu Li heard that the people around him seemed to have nothing to do and were talking and talking, he gradually became annoyed in his heart. He wanted to scold him, but suddenly he thought that his current safety must be protected by these warriors, so he could suppress himself.

I came all the way to the restaurant. Because I went out early in the morning, there was no one when I arrived in front of the restaurant. The guys at the entrance of the restaurant were about to greet him, but I saw several Jinyiwei who were following the tax bureau almost turned their horses and rushed towards the direction behind me.

Lu Li didn't expect such a change at all. The horse was frightened by the movements on the side and quickly stabilized. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it, so he was stunned.

When we got here, there were no one on the street. The stalker behind did not expect that the person in front would suddenly turn around. Before he could react, he saw the other party chasing over. In the deserted street, the other party was galloping. The person who was stalking for a moment was stunned, then turned around and ran away.

A man must be unable to escape the horse. In just a few steps, the horse of the Jinyiwei had reached his back. The scabbard in his hand was raised and smashed hard. Unexpectedly, the man in front seemed to have eyes on his back. He rushed forward and rolled over and avoided. However, he was weak after all, and another man rushed forward immediately. The embroidered sabbar in his hand hit him with a sheath.

The method of joint attack used by Jinyiwei to catch people on the street would be difficult to resist if he had not been familiar with this routine. Sure enough, the stalker's skills were good, but he could not escape the second stroke. He was immediately hit by the connection of his shoulders and neck, and his footsteps staggered. That part was the most vulnerable part of the human body. When hit by such a great force, he immediately fell to the ground in a coma. The Jinyiwei, who did not hit the first stroke, whispered in the mouth:

"I can't tell that this bastard is good at it. I'll hang your grandson on the beam of the house to see you run fast!"

Several Jinyiwei jumped off the horse skillfully and wanted to tie up and take away the people on the ground. Before he could do anything, more than a dozen yamen runners suddenly walked into the nearby alley. Seeing the person on the ground, he immediately looked very surprised and hurriedly surrounded him. A headmaster quickly walked over with a smile on his face and said politely:

"I am really ashamed to let several Shangguans encounter such a thing in the despair."

While talking, he kicked the stalker on the ground hard a few times, and cursed fiercely:

"The thief who is not eyed dares to attack Shangguan of the capital. He will get you cramped and peeled off when he goes back. Why are you bastards still standing there? Why don't you catch people back?"

After saying this, a group of people came over and were about to capture the unconscious person on the ground. A Jinyiwei standing in front felt a little angry when he saw the yamen runners coming to move people. He also took a step forward. However, although the polite constables of the government office were smiling on their faces at this time, they did not allow any action. The Jinyiwei, who had taken a step forward, was pulled by the companion behind him. He turned around in surprise, but saw that his companion gave him a look. Although he was a little confused, he still stopped.

The yamen runners were careful and stuffed the broken silver into the hands of the Jinyiwei. Several people carried the unconscious spy and walked towards the government office.

Several Jinyiwei did not get on the horse and led the horse to Lu Li. Lu Li looked at the scene in fear. When he saw his guard coming back, he immediately pulled down his face and said with some angrily:

"Why did you let the local yamen runners take the people away and get them back soon? Our family wants to ask who sent him to follow him?"

The Jinyiwei who pulled her companion had a serious expression and looked very gloomy. He whispered:

"Mr. Lu, those yamen runners didn't come out suddenly. They just came to steal people. Otherwise, how could a little thief dare to follow us and do something weird?"

When Lu Li heard this, he couldn't help but have a cold war all over his body. He looked at the Jinyiwei standing on the ground, but found that these people were all affirming their companions. Several of them were on the horse. One of them asked:

"Mr. Lu, I dare to ask, what are you doing in the prefectural office today? We have been in Cangzhou Prefecture for so long, and the local officials have been polite. Why did you make such an incident today?"

When Lu Li asked this question, he thought of course that when he went out to ask Mianshen, there was nothing else, but he didn't want to answer anything. He just slammed his horse's belly and ran back to his house. Several Jinyiwei looked at each other, discussed it in a low voice, and followed it. However, this time it was not like a swagger. They made a formation that could fight at any time, in case there was something wrong, and it was like facing a great enemy.

Lu Li returned to the house where he lived, and without saying a word, he arranged for someone to call Qiu Baolai over. Master Qiu thought he had won some prize, but he hurriedly ran over after hearing the order. When Lu Li saw Qiu Baolai's smile on his face in the inner hall, he was immediately angry and raised his hand and slapped him, and cursed fiercely:

"What bad idea did you come up with is to let our family die!"

The move to ask in the yamen was Qiu Baolai's idea, saying that he was going to take this opportunity to see the reaction of the local government office and make corresponding measures. When Lu Li looked at him, he saw that the person following him. On the way back to the house, Lu Li felt that there seemed to be someone looking at him coldly on the road, and his heart was full of coldness.

Qiu Baolai was caught off guard and was slapped on the ground. He was also extremely frightened. He didn't know what had happened, and he didn't care about the pain. He stood up with his face covering his face and hurriedly stepped forward and asked carefully:

"Mr. Lu, what's wrong? Tell me about it."

After being beaten a few times, he still heard Lu Li explaining the whole story. Master Qiu squeezed out a smile on his face, but said leisurely:

"Sir, this cotton gentry is the local tyrant in this place. He has many ears and ears in the yamen. The small one is not what we said before. We can borrow the power of the Jinyiwei and the army. Tax supervision and tax is a major national event. Naturally, the adults have the right to demand it."

Lu Li hesitated again, and Master Qiu next to him struck while the iron was hot and said:

"Sir, the young man is asking outside. Now he is working hard on the shops and workshops. If we do it, that will be the first credit. In front of the Sheng Shang and Eunuch Rui, he will be trusted and valued!"

"In front of the Sheng Shang and Eunuch Rui, you will also be trusted and used more. This sentence means that in Lu Li's mind, the hand that was originally raised automatically dropped and asked hesitantly:

"Really feasible?"

After saying this, before Master Qiu could speak, he said viciously:

"This wealth is all achieved through danger, and our family will only gain this time. Lao Qiu, what should our family do?"

Five days later, the tax supervisor Lu Li led more than 300 soldiers from the garrison and his entourage out of the city and visited the countryside. Lu Li rode his horse on his left and right in the middle of the team. He was a little worried, but he also looked at the surrounding environment. The official road leading to the countryside in the mansion city was much wider and flat than he remembered. There were very few cars and horses on the road alone.
