Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 29 Lu Liang also died
"Is this person your cousin?"

Xu Lin raised his hand and pointed at Lu Ming's body on the ground and asked Lu Liang.

"Yes."

Lu Liang pretended to be calm.

After all, he is the county magistrate, so Xu Lin would not kill him like he killed Lu Ming.

"He just said that he had a drink with Lu Xiang."

"How is your relationship with Prime Minister Lu?"

Xu Lin asked.

"I have only met the Prime Minister a few times."

"It's not really a friendship."

Lu Liang answered while thinking.

Obviously, Xu Lin is not afraid of Lu Buwei!

If he used Lu Buwei to warn Xu Lin, it would probably not only fail to make Xu Lin stop, but would even backfire!

Xu Lin smiled when he heard this and asked Li Wu to take people to rescue the girl in the cellar.

Soon, dozens of girls covered in wounds came to Xu Lin.

"Old Ren."

"Go to the study and get some money and give it to them."

Xu Lin ordered upon seeing this.

"promise!"

Old Ren immediately accepted the order and strode towards the study.

After seeing this scene, Lu Liang, who was standing by, hesitated to speak.

He tried to explain, but it was obviously useless.

Soon, Lao Ren moved a box of gold coins out of the study.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Your Excellency's kindness today, we will never forget it!"

After receiving the gold coins, the injured girls faced Xu Lin and bowed their heads in worship.

Seeing this, Xu Lin asked Li Wu and others to help them up.

“Can you please write down your experiences?”

Xu Lin asked gently.

"it is good!"

The ragged girls readily agreed.

Then he began to orally recount the various crimes committed by Lu Liang and Lu Ming.

Li Wu and the Shadow Secret Guard Killer were responsible for recording.

……

After a stick of incense.

Xu Lin obtained dozens of confessions as he wished.

After taking a rough look at it, Xu Lin put it in the storage space, and then asked the Shadow Secret Guard killer to take Xiaomei's daughter to the inn.

"Do you know what crime you will be punished for imprisoning a woman?"

"Does this matter have anything to do with Prime Minister Lu?"

After the injured girls walked away, Xu Lin walked leisurely towards Lu Liang and asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lu Liang hesitated to speak, then shook his head to indicate that this matter had nothing to do with Lu Buwei.

Lu Buwei was extremely powerful in the court. The only way he could save him was if he didn't involve Lu Buwei. If he did, Lu Buwei would not be able to save him, and he might even be unable to save himself!

"At this point, do you still think Prime Minister Lu can save you?"

"To tell you the truth, I came here on the king's orders. Huayang Palace has already fallen to the king."

"Do you think Prime Minister Lu can still be as all-powerful as he was in the past few years?"

Xu Lin smiled jokingly.

Then someone prepared a room for him.

This matter is of great importance, not only involving the promotion of straw paper, but also involving Lu Buwei, so Xu Lin plans to stay in the county magistrate's mansion for a few days.

Seeing that Lu Liang was unwilling to give up Lu Buwei, Xu Lin did not get angry but laughed instead, and had Lu Liang locked up in the study.

Although Lu Liang deserves to die, it would be too easy for him to be killed now!
……

the other side.

Xiaomei was overjoyed when she saw her daughter.

Then he held his daughter tightly in his arms.

Then they started looking for someone to sign her confession. …

The news of Lu Ming's murder and Lu Liang's house arrest spread very quickly. In just a few days, it spread throughout the entire Beidi County.

After the common people of Yiqiu and other counties learned about this, they came forward to report Lu Liang.

Although Lu Buwei still held great power in the court, Xu Lin dared to kill Lu Ming and put Lu Liang under house arrest. I think he should not be afraid of Lu Buwei!
Regardless of whether Xu Lin is Lu Buwei's opponent, they are willing to fight to the death!
Under Lu Liang's rule, the common people in Beidi County suffered terribly, and incidents of cannibalism occurred many times.

……

Seven days later.

Yiqiu County, Beidi County, County Magistrate's Office.

Xu Lin received nearly 10,000 letters of complaint.

After reading the pile of letters of complaint, Xu Lin's face looked very ugly.

What Lu Ming and Lu Liang did in Beidi County in recent years is too heinous to list in history, and they should be executed along with their entire clans!
After more than ten breaths, he had Lu Liang brought over.

When Lu Liang saw the pile of letters of denunciation in the bedroom, he touched his nose in disapproval.

Many people have scolded him over the years he has been in Beidi County, and he has become accustomed to it.

"I heard last night that you often gave money to Lü Buwei. Is that true?"

Xu Lin asked expressionlessly.

Lu Liang remained noncommittal, neither admitting nor denying it.

"I heard you have more than twenty concubines, but only one son."

"Do you know that if you form a clique for personal gain, indiscriminately kill common people, and imprison women, how many clans should be exterminated according to the law?"

Xu Lin stood with his hands behind his back and asked with a gloomy face.

The reason why he hasn't killed Lu Liang yet is because Lu Liang is still useful, otherwise Lu Liang would have been beheaded in the market long ago!
When Lu Liang heard the words "kill several clans", his heart skipped a beat.

Does Xu Lin not only want to kill him, but also kill his son and all his relatives?
"You don't want to talk, right?"

"it is good."

"Come here, drag him away, Five Horses..."

Xu Lin smiled upon seeing this and gave the order.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lu Liang.

"Wait a moment!"

"If I reveal the mastermind behind this, can you show mercy and spare my son and me?"

Lu Liang asked anxiously.

He doesn't want to die yet!
He didn't want to give Lu Buwei away, but so many days had passed and Lu Buwei hadn't sent anyone, so it was obvious that he had given up on him!
Since Lu Buwei has given up on him, what else is there for him to hide?
The imprisonment of the commoner woman had nothing to do with Lu Buwei, but he gave Lu Buwei money almost every month. Is this true?

In order to survive, Lu Liang decided to put all the blame on Lu Buwei!
Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and he neither agreed nor refused.

Seeing this, Lu Liang swallowed his saliva, then took out a few pieces of paper he had prepared in advance from his arms and handed them to Li Wu with both hands.

Li Wu took the straw paper and walked towards Xu Lin with her slender waist.

Xu Lin glanced at Lu Liang, then looked intently at the contents on the straw paper.

All I saw on the straw paper was that whether it was bullying the people or bending the law for personal gain, it was all to please Lu Buwei.

If it wasn't for the purpose of giving money to Lu Buwei every month, the most he would have done was to abduct some women. No one is perfect, so who can be without mistakes?
Abducting a woman is a crime, but it doesn’t warrant the death penalty, right?

After reading it, Li Wu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This old thief Lu Liang is really good at passing the buck!

Hearing the voice, Xu Lin looked at Li Wu.

After feeling Xu Lin's gaze, Li Wu immediately put away her smile.

"Well written."

After more than ten breaths, Xu Lin walked towards Lu Liang, patted Lu Liang's shoulder and commented.

After saying this, he and Li Wu left the County Magistrate's Mansion together.

Upon hearing this, Lu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when he thought Xu Lin would spare his life, Xiaomei and others suddenly rushed in with hoes and other farm tools.

After smashing Lu Liang to death, Xiaomei and others rushed into the backyard and killed Lu Liang's son and concubine.

After Xiaomei and others were abducted to the county magistrate's mansion, Lu Liang's son and concubine not only failed to stop Lu Liang's beastly behavior, but also helped him to commit atrocities!
It was one of Lu Liang's concubines who came up with the idea of ​​locking the man in the cellar.

The screams and pleas for mercy that came one after another made the common people outside the county magistrate's mansion smile with joy.

"gentlemen."

"Lü Ming and Lü Liang are both Lü Buwei's cousins. Lü Liang often gives money to Lü Buwei."

"If you kill them like this, aren't you afraid of Lu Buwei's revenge?"

After Lu Liang's son and concubine were all killed, Li Wu asked with her eyes blinking.
