But at this moment, Qingcheng Prefecture was not at peace.
I originally thought that Prime Minister Lu had run away with Lu Qingqing.
Who would have thought that just early in the morning, a maid would come to report in panic.
It was said that there was a person floating on the lake.
By the time Luo Jun arrived, Luo Jiang was so angry that he couldn't speak.
He clenched his hands into fists, feeling that the great cause was coming to an end before his eyes.
Prime Minister Lu was soon found.
He died in the rockery with his eyes open.
Luo Jiang ordered his men to move the two bodies back.
One drowned and the other was killed.
Luo Jiang is not a fool. The first thing he thought of was the inexplicable smoke last night.
The smoke came in strangely, and the people's intrusion was even stranger.
Luo Jiang naturally understood from all these things that he was being plotted against.
But who on earth had such ability? He turned his attention in one direction.
Could it be... the Seventh Prince?
No, how could he find out that he was the one who did it!
Luo Jiang didn't believe that he had concealed it so well, and there was nothing unusual about him in his daily life.
The Seventh Prince had no connection with him, so it was impossible that he noticed him out of thin air, right?
Or some other enemy?
Luo Jiang thought about it, and Luo Jun frowned.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Without Lu Qingqing, there would be no little princess. How could they command the Zhennan Army?
Besides, Lu Qingqing is now dead in their house.
If those people knew about this, they would never be able to wash themselves clean even if they jumped into the river!
Not to mention that there are quite a few crazy people there who are loyal to the Prince of Zhennan.
When the time comes, let’s put it aside and decide whether we can save our lives or not.
He will definitely be tortured.
Luo Jiang naturally knew what those people were doing, and his face turned three shades paler.
Unfortunately, before he could figure out what was going on, the guards outside the mansion suddenly came to report.
"Master! Master! Something bad has happened!"
The butler ran over in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
Luo Jiang was still thinking of a strategy to deal with the situation when he heard the housekeeper yelling and shouting, feeling quite impatient.
The butler took a breath.
"A lot of people came from outside the palace, saying they wanted... wanted..."
"What are you hesitating about?"
"I want to ask you, sir, why are you hiding the grain, refusing to sell it, and even raising the price?"
Luo Jiang almost couldn't catch his breath.
He never expected that his well-hidden shop would be discovered.
"Where is the grain store owner?"
"The shopkeeper was caught, his face and nose were bruised."
The housekeeper saw this scene through the crack in the door and hurriedly reported it to Luo Jiang.
Luo Jun even snorted coldly.
"These are a bunch of unruly people. Dad, you are usually too kind to them!"
"They are doing this because they are fearless!"
"Shut up!"
Luo Jiang shouted angrily, then seemed to be choked and coughed a few times.
He looked at his son in front of him and was almost furious.
Luo Jun usually looks like a steady person, but in fact he is a very bad person underneath.
When he was younger, he was even more lawless. Luo Jiang only had this one son, so he could only teach him a few things.
This made Luo Jun look like a handsome gentleman on the surface.
"Have you dealt with the woman you took away a few days ago?"
Luo Jiang questioned, and Luo Jun was stunned. He didn't expect that Luo Jiang actually knew about this.
"Do you think you did it perfectly? I'm your father!"
He glared at Luo Jun angrily.
"Everything has been handled."
Luo Jun was afraid of him after all.
"Remember this, if we don't handle this properly and that woman shows up, I'm afraid neither you nor I will be able to escape."
What I fear most is that everyone pushes down the wall when it falls.
If the food issue really doesn't work out, Luo Jiang can still suppress it by force.
But if the human trafficking incident gets out, I'm afraid Mr. Wang will be the first one to not let them go.
Luo Jiang suppressed his anger and walked out of the mansion with his men.
I didn't expect that as soon as I opened the door, someone threw dirty mud on my face.
It turned out that the gate of Qingcheng Mansion had not been opened for a long time, and the people naturally understood what it meant.
Plus Lu Anan was fanning the flames.
They then picked up the mud nearby and threw it at the gate of the mansion.
Unexpectedly, Luo Jiang came out just in time and got hit several times.
When Lu Anan saw this scene, she almost laughed out loud.
"Ah Shen, this is called... a dog chewing mud."
Seeing that Luo Jiang was finally willing to come out, the people stopped temporarily.
His face was ashen and he wiped the mud off his face with his sleeve.
He looked at the shopkeeper standing next to him and immediately realized that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.
"Lord Luo, are you finally willing to come out?"
The crowd quieted down, and Lu Anan spoke softly.
Luo Jiang looked at her. Luo Jun looked at Lu Anan's face and was a little flustered for a moment.
Is there really such a beauty in the world?
Luo Jiang frowned and was about to say something when he saw Chu Jinshen behind Lu Anan.
His expression suddenly changed.
"So it was you guys who did this!"
Lu Anan chuckled: "That's you, Lord Luo. You've brought this upon yourself, and you deserve to die."
"you!"
Luo Jiang wanted to say something, but the people didn't want to listen anymore.
"How could you do such a thing!"
Xu Li, who was in the lead, even spat.
"You bunch of troublemakers! Come here! Arrest them!"
Luo Jun was standing at the back, and he also couldn't escape the fate of being hit by mud.
Now his face was even more confused, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up and down.
He was followed by a number of Qingcheng Prefecture guards.
But the number of people in front of him was not small.
Upon hearing Luo Jun's order, the guards looked at each other.
I can go up, but... I'm afraid I can't win.
"My father is the Lord of Lizhou. You will be beheaded for insulting an official of the imperial court like this!"
Luo Jun shouted sharply, and some of the people in the crowd looked at each other.
Although they are numerous, they cannot withstand the supremacy of imperial power. If Luo Jiang really takes action, their flesh and blood bodies will not be able to withstand the weapons.
Chu Jinshen spoke at this time.
"Even the imperial court will probably hold you accountable for your negligence."
His voice wasn't loud, but his aura was so strong that Luo Jun was speechless.
Luo Jiang knew very well that this matter must not be known to the higher-ups.
He is involved in too much.
Chu Jinshen also knew this very well.
The people instantly felt confident. Yes, the Seventh Prince was behind them!
That famous prince who is the god of war!
"Your Excellency knows that our prince has a bad temper. I am even worse. I cannot stand being threatened by others."
Lu Anan took a step forward, and the footsteps not far away became more frequent.
"So today, I will seek justice for the people of Qingcheng."
There was still mud on Luo Jiang's face, and his eyes were full of ferocity.
"what you up to!"
"Of course, I am doing justice for the heavens!"
As soon as Lu Anan finished speaking, she moved her feet slightly, rushed forward and punched down.
Luo Jiang was instantly knocked from outside the mansion into the mansion.
Lu Anan raised the corners of her lips: "Ouch, it hurts."
