Chapter 297 The dust has settled

While Shen Bainian was at the end, Hou Dehai suddenly took off his pants and shouted sharply, "The zodiac family is here, let's see who dares to be presumptuous!"

The city defense soldiers had already arrived at Hou Dehai. They were about to reach out and suddenly stood there, looking at Hou Dehai's lower body in shock.[]

Everyone's eyes, including Tan Zong, fell on Hou Dehai's lower body, and everyone's face looked extremely surprised, and the yard became quiet in an instant.

"No...no." In silence, Gu Tianyi murmured to himself, his eyes full of doubts, "Strange, why didn't there?"

Hou Dehai's legs were naked and there was nothing that a man should have. In other words, this guy was an eunuch.

This situation was so surprising. Tan Zong couldn't help but frown. Lu Weimin, Han Tian and others also looked at each other. Isn't this Hou Dehai fake? Why is he really a eunuch?

"Hmph! Why, are you still thinking about asking for the imperial edict from the official family?" Seeing that someone was stunned, Hou Dehai showed a smug look on his face, he snorted coldly and said gloomyly.

When Lu Weimin heard this, his face was bloodless and his calves were weak. Once the charge of forcing the imperial edict was confirmed, it would be a huge disaster.

Unfortunately, Shen Bainian had fainted. If he was awake, he would definitely kneel down and shout with great excitement.

"The imperial edict is here, and you won't kneel down." After looking around at the people at the scene coldly, Hou Dehai raised the yellow brocade scroll in his hand and said sharply.

"Long live my emperor!" Lu Weimin's knees couldn't help but kneel down, his hands resting on the ground, and shouted with great sincerity.

"Long live my emperor!" Then, Han Tian and Bi Shijie also knelt down.

With the leadership of Lu Weimin and the other two, like dominoes, including Gu Tianyi, the people in the yard knelt down a large area.

In an instant, except Hou De, only Tan Zong, Zheng Hu and Wang Fatty were left at the scene.

Tan Zong frowned and stared at Hou Dehai, as if he was thinking about something, and Zheng Hu followed his horse's head, so he didn't kneel, so Zheng Hu naturally didn't kneel.

As for Fatty Wang, he was completely scared. He and Tan Zong were together. If Tan Zong was in trouble, he would not be able to escape.

"Do you think the miscellaneous family is fake?" Hou Dehai stared at Tan Zong coldly, his tone full of murderous aura.

When Lu Weimin and others who were kneeling on the ground heard this, they couldn't help but look up at Tan Zong, with a look of surprise on their faces. It was not until this time that they noticed that Tan Zong did not kneel.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Tan Zong stared at Hou Dehai's eyes for a while, and suddenly smiled slightly, bowing to Lu Weimin and Han Tian, ​​Bi Shijie and the three of them said, "I have heard that some wealthy families will raise eunuchs for the sake of the safety of the inner house."

As soon as this said, a look of panic flashed in Hou Dehai's eyes. He couldn't help but clench the Huang Jin scroll in his hand, staring at Tan Zong with an expressionless face, and his voice was cold, "What do you mean is the scattered family fake?"

"Although you have been cleansed, it's a pity that you are not an eunuch in the palace, because you don't have the introvert and cautious that an eunuch should have. This kind of restraint and cautiousness is not something you can learn outside the palace." Tan Zong looked at Hou Dehai's hands that grabbed Huang Jin's scroll and said with a smile. From Hou Dehai's subtle movement, he knew that he had guessed it right.

"Absurd, there are both great eunuch guards, as well as imperial eunuchs and eunuchs' waist cards around the family. How could you turn black and white in just a few words?" Hou Dehai heard this and sneered at Lu Weimin, "Mr. Lu, the imperial eunuch is here. Take this person down and send it to the capital for punishment."

"Master Lu, I can be sure that this person is definitely not an eunuch from the imperial city. I hope he will observe clearly." Tan Zongxiang Lu Weimin bowed and said in a deep voice, while looking at the several eunuchs kneeling there not far away.

Lu Weimin just watched Tan Zong and Hou Dehai verbally in front of him, and could not speak at all. He followed Tan Zong's gaze and glanced at the big guards who admitted to fake, and stood up suddenly, his face turned cold, pointed at Hou Dehai and said, "If it weren't for Mr. Huang's reminder, I would have almost been deceived by you."

If those big guards were true, they would never admit that they were fake, because doing so would be a crime of deceiving the king and would lose their heads.

Since these big guards admitted that they were fake, then Hou Dehai was naturally fake. When he saw that Hou Dehai was a eunuch just now, he was excited and did not think so much. Now, when Tan Zong explained, he immediately came to his senses.

Lu Weimin came together, and the rest stood up and looked at Hou Dehai in unison.

Hou Dehai looked at the people around him, subconsciously grabbed Huang Jin scroll tightly in his hand, and looked at Lu Weimin nervously, "Mr. Lu, what do you mean? Don't you believe what the zodiacists said?"

"Come on, take this eunuch." Lu Weimin sneered and waved his hands at the city defense soldiers standing in front of Hou Dehai.

The soldiers immediately rushed towards Hou Dehai in a fierce manner. Hou Dehai was shocked when he saw this. He grabbed the yellow brocade scroll in his hand and took a bite. After taking a bite of the brocade, he swallowed it without thinking.

"Hurry, don't let him ruin that 'ichibition'." Seeing this, Tan Zong immediately shouted at the soldiers.

Upon hearing this, a soldier punched Hou Dehai's chin. Hou Dehai felt a buzzing in his mind and fell to the ground. However, his hands were still holding the Huang Jin scroll tightly, instinctively putting it into his mouth, and he wanted to take another bite.

At this moment, not only Tan Zong, but also Lu Weimin realized that this "authorization" was strange, so he shouted loudly, "Call him out, knock him out!"

As soon as Lu Weimin finished speaking, a soldier kicked Hou Dehai's cheek. Hou Dehai groaned, his head tilted, and he fainted.

"Sir!" The soldier who kicked Hou Dehai out took off a piece of Huang Jin scroll from his hand, held it with both hands and handed it to Lu Weimin.

After Lu Weimin took it, he was about to open it, but Tan Zong suddenly spoke out and stopped it, "Sir, I think this matter is serious, so it is better to hand it over to Prince An of Suzhou City."

Lu Weimin was stunned when he heard this, then understood and said in his heart that it was so dangerous. If he rashly looked through this fake imperial edict and there were some hidden things inside, then it would be troublesome.

"Cross it up and send someone to Prince An of Suzhou City overnight." Then, Lu Weimin handed the Huang Jin scroll to a guard behind him, and then looked at Han Tian and Bi Shijie, "I'll ask the two to sign and seal the seal together and send someone to escort them together."

Han Tian and Bi Shi nodded. For Yangzhou, this incident can be said to be a shocking case, and they cannot stay out of it.

Soon, the fake imperial edict was sealed in a brocade box. Lu Weimin, Bi Shijie and Han Tian wrote their names on the three seals on the brocade box in turn, and solemnly pressed their handprints.

After sealing the brocade box, Lu Weimin bowed to Bi Shijie and Han Tianyi and smiled bitterly, "Two, how can we tell Prince An about this?"

Han Tian and Bi Shijie looked at each other and smiled bitterly at Lu Weimin.

In addition to this brocade box, Lu Weimin must also write down the story and tell Zhao Yunan that if the process is reported truthfully, not only will the city defense force be in great trouble, but he will also be unable to quit his duty.

Moreover, although the Salt Tax Office made great contributions, the relationship with the city defense force will inevitably deteriorate after experiencing this bloody battle. How can we work together in Yangzhou City in the future? Not to mention whether the knot between the two parties can be untied, in the eyes of outsiders, the Salt Tax Office will inevitably be accused of "fighting colleagues".

Therefore, in this incident, not only Lu Weimin and Han Tian had a headache, but Bi Shijie was also depressed. Such a great contribution was right before his eyes because of the fire between the City Defense Force and the Salt Tax Department, which made him unable to take it into his pocket.

"Why, let's ask Mr. Huang what does it mean?" During the silence, Han Tian suddenly remembered something, looked at Tan Zong, who was standing not far away and chatting with Fatty Wang, Bi Dongcheng and Gu Tianyi, and said with a glance, turning his eyes.

In Han Tian's opinion, Tan Zong could actually recognize the fake waist card of the Great Inspector at a glance, and probably had a very extraordinary origin. If he could be in the middle to mediate the matter, he might be able to turn around and get a relatively successful ending.

"I mean the same thing." Bi Shijie heard this and nodded to Lu Weimin with a smile. Some words were difficult for them to say, but Tan Zong was different. Besides, Tan Zong was the most meritorious minister, and his opinions were crucial.

"Young Master Huang, can you go into the house and talk?" Lu Weimin didn't understand what Han Tian and Bi Shijie meant, so he nodded and shouted to Tan Zong with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Tan Zong walked over quickly and walked into the living room with Lu Weimin and the other two. The door was immediately closed. Several soldiers guarded the door to prevent anyone from approaching.

"Mr. Huang, what's going on today, do you think we can report to Prince An?" After the four of them sat down, Lu Weimin looked at Tan Zong kindly and said politely.

"I would like to give you some advice in the next few moments." Tan Zong looked at Lu Weimin and the other three who looked at him, and smiled at Lu Weimin. "I think this matter is not only the result of the sincere cooperation between the Salt Tax Department and the City Defense Forces, but also a model for adults to manage well."

Lu Weimin and Han Tian, ​​when Bi Shijie heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, unable to understand whether Tan Zong's words were praising or sarcastic.
