How did I become king

Page 677

Lu Gan said with a smile: "Once upon a time there was a man named Zhang San, who worked hard to sell cooking cakes for ten years, and finally saved up to 300 taels of silver, but was afraid of being stolen, so he found a piece of land, buried it, and it is still buried." There was a wooden sign saying 'No silver here, 300 taels'. Unexpectedly, all this was seen by Wang Er next door."

"what!"

Shen Zishuang was startled, and quickly asked: "What about after that, was Zhang San's 300 taels stolen by Wang Er?"

Lu Gan shook his head: "No. Wang Er secretly went to sleep with Zhang San's wife while Zhang San was digging and burying the money."

"..."

A blush rose on Shen Zishuang's cheeks, and her silver teeth bit her lips lightly: "This is the story of the 300 taels of silver here?"

"It's not over yet."

Lu Gan said indifferently: "Later, Zhang San got flu because of digging and burying the silver too hard at night, and died the next day. Both the silver and the lady belonged to Wang Er. After Zhang San saw this, he was extremely shocked. Not reconciled, after reincarnation, he continued to ask his wife to be his wife, and the King of Hades agreed to him. Sure enough, he got his wish, and his wife was still his wife, but in this life he had to sell cooking cakes, and changed his surname to Wu , has a younger brother."

"..."

Shen Zishuang was confused.

What does this have to do with Yang Shilang's situation?

Lu Gan smiled and explained: "This Yang Shilang's family is so poor, either pretending to be poor, or really poor, but that Mrs. Yang uses a high-quality rouge called 'Concubine Fragrance', It was only used by concubines in the palace before, so it can only show that he is just pretending to be poor."

"Oh! I understand! His family is poor everywhere, but there is no silver 300 taels here! It's better to decorate it more luxuriously, so that it won't arouse suspicion!"

Shen Zishuang's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized.

"Hey, you've become smarter. Have you been eating pig brains lately?" Lu Gan asked in surprise.

"Hmph, you only eat pig brains."

Shen Zishuang snorted softly, and immediately realized that Lu Gan was making fun of her.

Just as he was about to say something, a middle-aged man walked in from the door, dressed in plain white clothes, with a square face and broad nose, he cupped his hands and said, "Which adult is here?"

This person is Yang Ziyi, the servant of the Ministry of officials.

"Your Majesty Yang, you're being polite. I'm just a small headhunter of the Zhen Fu Division."

Lu Gan smiled and got up to salute.

"If your lord doesn't mind the trouble, why don't you show me your official badge again?" Yang Shilang looked at Lu Gan, then at Shen Zishuang, and cupped his hands.

"it is good."

Lu Gan didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the jade token and handed it over.

There are a lot of jade badges for official positions, ranging from first rank to ninth rank, even those of princes and dukes, which are convenient for him to visit privately at any time.

Yang Shilang took the jade card and fumbled for a few times, took another look, and then handed it back respectfully: "I'm sorry! My lord, please sit down."

Afterwards, the two took their seats.

Yang Shilang didn't gossiping, cupped his hands and said: "May I ask why you came here late at night? If you can do it, I will do my best."

"It's nothing serious. It's just a private matter. I just want to ask Mr. Minister, and I won't waste a lot of your time."

Lu Gan said with a smile.

"Please say."

Yang Shilang nodded solemnly.

Lu Gandao: "As we approach Enke, the Zhenfu Division heard some rumors that someone is planning to cheat in the scientific examination. I wonder if the servant has heard these rumors?"

"There is such a thing?"

Yang Shilang's complexion changed, and he slammed the table: "It's really unreasonable! Your Majesty opened Enke to select talents from all over the world. I didn't expect someone to be so lawless and mad, thinking of cheating in the scientific examination, it is an unforgivable crime!"

"Your Excellency, you don't need to be so excited. I just asked. By the way, your Excellency is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. After the scientific examination is over, you will participate in the approval of papers and the selection of officials. Recently, I don't know if anyone , thinking of opportunistic, to find the door of Mr. Shi Lang?"

Lu Gan asked again.

"This... I don't want to hide from the head catcher, there are indeed a few of them. Hmph, they don't even ask. I, Yang Ziyi, am full of integrity and have a clean sleeve. What I hate the most in my life is this kind of crooked guy! So, they They were all beaten away by the officer!"

Yang Shilang spoke uprightly.

"I have heard about the reputation of the servant, and I really admire him for being upright and selfless. Well, I will ask this question here. This is just a matter of routine, so I will leave."

Lu Gan nodded, stood up with a smile, and was about to leave.

"Are you leaving now, my lord? I will see you off." Yang Shilang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly got up to see him off.

"No need, Mr. Minister, please stay."

Lu Gan waved his hand, walked to the door, and suddenly paused.

He turned around and asked: "I heard that Master Shi Lang is a master of calligraphy, I wonder if Master Yang can give me a word to take back."

"This...Of course. Come here, the Four Treasures of the Study Room."

Yang Shilang fully agreed.

Soon, the servants brought the Four Treasures of the Study and placed them on the table in the hall.

Yang Shilang dipped his pen and ink, and asked, "I don't know what word my lord wants to write?"

"Dian."

Lu Gan smiled and said: "The inscription for the funeral. Recently, I have a friend who is about to die. I am going to give this inscription to him."

"...Okay, my lord really has nothing to say about friends."

Yang Shilang blew in embarrassment, writing like wind.

Just halfway through writing the words, at this moment, Lu Gan asked again: "By the way, these skills are usually done by the housekeeper. Why don't you see the housekeeper from your mansion?"

Snapped.

The pen in Yang Shilang's hand broke, and the splashed ink filled the paper.

Lu Gan heard clearly that the person's heartbeat and blood flow speeded up by five points.

"Hehe, the butler of this officer has gone back to the countryside to recuperate, and he happened to be away from the house. I'm sorry, this officer missed it for a while."

Yang Shilang smiled awkwardly and explained.

Afterwards, I picked up a new pen, changed a new paper, and the pen took off, and I finished writing in no time.

As soon as the blazing blood dissipated, the ink stains dried immediately.

Lu Gan took a step forward to take a look, nodded, and praised: "It's really a good word, and it's just right for you to give it to Mr. Yang."

"Uh-huh!"

As soon as Yang Shilang put down his pen and raised his head, he saw Lu Gan's cold smile.

His expression froze immediately.

Without the slightest hesitation, a light flashed all over his body, and he opened his big hand like a tiger's claw, grabbing Lu Gan's face fiercely, trying to tear his whole face off.

"Bold!"

Shen Zishuang at the side finally waited, shouted loudly, snapped his fingers, and a burst of sword energy shot out, hitting the sandalwood on Yang Shilang's chest.

puff.

A hole was blasted in Yang Shilang's back shirt, blood spurted out, and an invisible sword energy rushed out with it, and the momentum continued, directly piercing through the wall, leaving a gap.

The cold moonlight shone in through the gap and fell on Yang Shilang's back.

boom.

His eyes widened, and he fell to the ground.

At the same time, the figure of Xiexin Demon Buddha appeared, and he was already holding the middle-aged man in blue robe in his hand, and threw it in the hall casually.

"Who...you...who dare to kill Dagan's imperial court official? Help...poof."

Yang Shilang's mouth dripped bright red, and he shouted forcefully.

Then, the sharp Nirvana sword intent left in the body pierced through the five internal organs, and another mouthful of blood spurted out.

The voice came out, and the guards outside the door rushed in.

Above the sky, there was a piercing howl, and more than a dozen streaks of light shot from all directions.

It is the Flying Shield Guards!

Lu Gan's expression was cold, his face slowly returned to its original appearance, and he said coldly: "Master Minister, take a good look, who is I?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Shilang's eyes widened, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

A cold heart, despair, remorse.

He knew he was done.

Chapter 746 It turns out that he was behind the scenes

"Tell me, who is behind the scenes?"

In Yang Mansion, in the hall, Lu Gan sat on the main seat with a golden sword, with a cold face.

In the middle of the hall, Yang Shilang and the middle-aged men in blue robes were kneeling in two rows, their expressions were extremely pale, and their eyes were full of horror.

Who would have thought that Lu Gan would come to him!

This is really dead!

"Don't tell me? Come on, let's destroy their bodies first, and then take them back to the Zhenfu Division for trial." Lu Gan's cold face was frosty, majestic and intimidating.

"Your Majesty, I'm recruiting!"

When Yang Shilang heard this, he trembled in fright, his face was full of fear.

As a senior member of the fourth rank, he has been to the Zhenfu Division many times, and even the place where the punishment of the Zhenfu Division is horrific. After entering there, death is the only relief!

"Then go ahead, don't lie, I have Dementors, once you lie, you know the consequences."

Lu Gan narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was like a knife.

"Yes."

Yang Shilang pursed his lips, recalling for a moment: "Half a month ago, a mysterious person approached Weichen, first he sent pills, then secret books, and later directly gave Yuanshi, Weichen couldn't resist the temptation, So I agreed to him and prepared to help cheat in the scientific examination."

Mystery man?

Lu Gan cast his eyes on the middle-aged man in the blue robe: "Then who is this man?"

"He's just someone the mysterious person contacted Weichen."

Yang Shilang replied tremblingly.

"So, this matter has nothing to do with the Seventeenth Prince Zhao Yin?" Lu Gan frowned, with a look of suspicion on his face.

In his hand, the Thousand Soul Mirror emerged and began to flash black light.

Yang Shilang looked at it and showed a sad smile: "The Seventeenth Prince's people in the court hall have been wiped out by His Majesty, and the human and financial resources used to manipulate this matter behind the scenes?"

This is true.

The seventeenth prince, Zhao Yin, and his biological mother, Concubine Chan, live in the Holy Palace, practicing with peace of mind, and have not gone out for the past few months.

Lu Gan's expression became even colder: "So, you don't know who is behind the scenes?"

"This minister is just collecting money to do business. Tonight, because this person was discovered in his lair, he came to hide in the mansion of Weichen. There is nothing I can do, so I have to let him hide first. I have been convicted! Your Majesty, please forgive me." , let go of my wife, and my three relatives!"

Filled with guilt, Yang Shilang kowtowed hard.

The floor was directly shattered.

"Hmph, if you are greedy for some money, I might consider letting you go because of your achievements in the past, but what you do with my salary is to dig a lot of foundations. , This is collaborating with the enemy and treason, how can I spare you? If I can let you go, wouldn’t someone dare to cheat in Enke every time in the future?"

Lu Gan said coldly.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me! My wife, my relatives are really innocent!" Yang Shilang cried and begged for mercy.

"innocent?"

Lu Gan sneered, and asked, "I ask you, how many primordial stones, how much gold, how much elixir and magical skills have you collected, and where are you hiding them?"

"It's all hidden in a private house bought by Weichen. This private house is located at No. 18, Lane [-], Tianbei Street, South of the city. Your Majesty, I dare not use these elixir treasures! Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"

Yang Shilang wept bitterly and kowtowed harder.

"Drag it back to the Zhen Fusi, let Tantai Palace have a good trial. In addition, send someone to that private house to find out the treasure Yuanshi inside."
