Lord Zhu went straight to the point, but the Lord of Lanzhou raised his eyes and looked at Xu Hesheng next to him.
He lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
"Master Zhu is also aware that this matter involves many things. I'm afraid..."
"We can't let him out."
Lord Zhu was stunned. He didn't expect that the Lord of Lanzhou would directly slap him in the face.
His face suddenly darkened.
"If I say it's okay, then it's okay!"
Lord Zhu snorted coldly, looking like someone who was not to be trifled with.
The Lord of Lanzhou did not confront him forcefully, but only gave him a roundabout reminder.
"The matter of Hongcheng must be thoroughly investigated."
Lord Zhu narrowed his eyes and said, "Isn't this due to your failure to supervise properly?"
The Lord of Lanzhou said with a cold expression, "The incident in Hongcheng happened suddenly, and I haven't received any urgent reports."
"I know nothing about this matter."
Lord Zhu took two steps forward and stood in front of the Lord of Lanzhou.
"Since you know nothing, don't know too much."
The Lord of Lanzhou looked up at him and said, "But even if you want to kill or chop someone up, there must be a suitable reason."
"I will definitely find out the truth, and I will have an explanation when I see His Majesty in the future."
Seeing that he refused to listen, Lord Zhu became quite angry.
"What on earth do you want to do! I said he is fine, so he is fine."
"If there is anything, I will take full responsibility!"
Xu Hesheng frowned. The way the Lord of Lanzhou argued was really unlike his usual temperament.
What exactly happened?
Let the Lord of Lanzhou investigate till now.
Mr. Zhu has said so much.
The Lord of Lanzhou looked even uglier.
It was Xu Hesheng who came out at the right time to smooth things over.
"Sir, my cousin is a truly despicable person."
"He has always been a liar. He always tells a lot of lies for a little benefit."
There was something behind these words, which made the Lord of Lanzhou turn his gaze towards him.
"Mr. Xu means..."
"There's not much truth in what Xu Heyan said."
He had a smile on his face.
No matter how you look at it, the Lord of Lanzhou looks like he is wearing a mask.
Lord Zhu also said: "In this case, there is no need to stop it."
"You can't get anything out of a person like that."
"Master Zhu is right."
The Lord of Lanzhou responded.
Lord Zhu finally relaxed a little.
It seems that the Lord of Lanzhou is not so stubborn.
"Alright, let Xu Hesheng bring him out!"
"Yes, sir."
Xu Hesheng took two steps forward, but was blocked by the Lord of Lanzhou.
He was just about to go around it.
Unexpectedly, Butler Zhou moved to the side again.
Just happened to stand in front of him.
Xu Hesheng raised his brows slightly.
"Master, this is..."
Mr. Zhu immediately felt furious.
"Master, what on earth do you want to do?"
"Nothing, just wishing that Master had forgotten."
"Master Zhu, what you are saying now is only in front of you and me. If you meet the emperor in the future..."
The Lord of Lanzhou said with a forced smile: "I wish you could come up with another explanation, sir."
"The unlucky one is only me."
Lord Zhu seemed to have his little thoughts seen through and shouted angrily.
"you!"
"I am only speaking the truth."
"Butler Zhou, General Weiyuan has already gone to Hongcheng. I'm afraid Lord Zhu doesn't know the way."
"Hurry up and send Master Zhu over!"
Butler Zhou stepped forward and said, "Yes, sir."
As he spoke, he walked up to Lord Zhu and extended his hand respectfully.
"Please, sir."
Lord Zhu snorted coldly.
"Lord Lanzhou, what a grand ceremony!"
The Lord of Lanzhou has changed his previous appearance.
"The Wen family of Pingzhou can certainly afford some pomp and circumstance."
Only then did Mr. Zhu realize it belatedly.
General Weiyuan's words before leaving.
"Master Zhu, please be careful."
There is a lot of meaning in this.
Lord Zhu didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but now he hears it.
I know why.
"If it were the Wen family of Pingzhou more than ten years ago, I would have respected them a little."
"But now, isn't it the same as before, like a frightened bird?"
I hope you will not give in at all.
Now it's more than just his face.
And also the face of his master behind him.
The Wen family of Pingzhou was indeed not to be underestimated back then.
However, under the suppression of the previous emperor, he retired.
Now it's just an empty title.
"Even so, Master Zhu, you know that a lean camel is bigger than a horse."
"I will write to my aunt and pass on Lord Zhu's words word for word."
Lord Zhu frowned.
From the mouth of the Lord of Lanzhou, he could call out the three words "legitimate aunt".
The only one who is the most respected in the palace now.
He gritted his teeth and forced a smile.
"Why do you have to do this, my Lord? Don't disturb the peace of the Empress Dowager."
Lord Zhu said this and looked at Xu Hesheng behind him.
"I still have some things to do. General Weiyuan is waiting for me."
Xu Hesheng originally thought that the problem could be solved.
Unexpectedly, things took a turn and turned into what they are now.
He clenched his hands tightly.
Seeing that Lord Zhu was about to leave, Xu Hesheng prepared to follow him.
"Master Xu, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Xu Hesheng paused slightly and turned around.
"Master, since Xu Heyan still has some matters to attend to here, I will not disturb him any further."
The Lord of Lanzhou walked to his side.
"Bother me? No need to bother you. I just have something to ask Master Xu."
He said, motioning to the city guards standing nearby.
Li Si took the opportunity to come over.
Xu Hesheng was about to struggle when he suddenly remembered his identity.
He had no choice but to let Li Si escort him to the previous dungeon.
The Lord of Lanzhou walked in front.
He talked to Xu Hesheng as he walked.
"It seems that I have underestimated the Xu family. This Lord Zhu was only promoted a few years ago."
"It seems that the Xu family has a close relationship with him."
This is interesting.
Xu Hesheng didn't respond, but just followed behind.
"Now, Master Zhu has also left."
"Master Xu, if you have anything to say, please say it."
The voice of the Lord of Lanzhou was not loud, but it sounded particularly loud in Xu Hesheng's ears.
"Xu Heyan explained everything he needed to explain."
"This matter involves an epidemic. Do you think you can still survive if something happens to me?"
"The Xu family is also related to this epidemic. Do you think His Majesty will let you go?"
When he said this, Xu Hesheng's expression was a little strange.
He said nothing, but lowered his eyes.
Lord Lanzhou said nothing more and led his men towards the dungeon.
"Xu Heyan has been waiting for you there for a long time."
After several people entered the dungeon, Lu Anan came out.
"Interesting, this Xu Hesheng doesn't seem to know who he's working for."
