With a million soldiers, the empress begged me not to rebel

The two men originally wanted to find an inn next to the yamen.

This way.

You can also observe Lu Yan's every move at any time.

However, just as the two of them left and arrived near the yamen, they heard a triumphant voice coming from the yard.

"Go take that wonton vendor's son to the gambling den right now and do as I say!"

Hearing this, the two looked at each other, their pupils suddenly contracted. Chen Qingwan hurriedly pulled Qiao'er behind her and listened with her ear close to hers.

She stuck her head out and took a look—it was indeed that bastard official!

The dog official stood with his hands on his hips, looking very proud.

The bailiff nodded with a smile.

Lu Yan gave another careful reminder.

"Tell the gambling house owner that I am a man of my word. I have sent this man to him."

Chen Qingwan became furious when she heard this.

This dog official!

They actually sent an ordinary citizen to the gambling house.

The people in the gambling house are very cruel and ruthless. Anyone who goes in will be skinned alive if not killed. How can they come out safely?

He is about to succumb to the power of the gambling house and claims to be a good official, but it turns out he is just a guy who treats people differently based on their status!

Chen Qingwan's anger was rising in her heart, and it seemed that she could no longer suppress it.

Qiao'er was afraid that if she lost her temper openly now, it would be disastrous if this corrupt official gathered the yamen runners and attacked them without knowing Chen Qingwan's identity.

She now had to protect Chen Qingwan first, so she touched Chen Qingwan gently.

Her eyes were still signaling.

Your Majesty, calm down!

As emperor.

Chen Qingwan naturally knew what it meant that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, so she had to suppress the anger in her heart.

She was still cursing in her heart:

"Just wait for me, you bastard official! As soon as I get back, I'll issue an order to kill you. I'll tear you into pieces!"

I have to say that Lu Yan is still quite capable. Under normal circumstances, Chen Qingwan, as the empress, would not show her joy.

But what Lu Yan did today made her unable to hold back.

At this moment, the yamen runner gave Lu Yan a thumbs up and praised him with a respectful look on his face.

"Your Excellency has a solution. It's truly wise. I'm sure this method of handling the situation will satisfy everyone!"

"Only adults can come up with such a trick. Others may not be able to come up with a method that will convince the little ones."

When Chen Qingwan heard that the yamen runner actually praised Lu Yan for being very wise, she gritted her teeth!

Bullshit wisdom, this is simply flattery, the county yamen runners and Lu Yan are birds of the same feather!

When she returns, she will have these guys thoroughly investigated and punished. They must not be allowed to continue to harm the people!

She wanted to tear out Lu Yan's tendons, skin him alive, and burn him to death!

When Qiao'er heard what the yamen runners said, she curled her lips. She now also believed that the people were deceived by Lu Yan and these yamen runners.

Lu Yan said to the yamen runner who praised him:

"I want to test you. You say this method is good, but can you analyze for me what's so good about it? Let's see if you've learned any skills from me!"

The bailiff bowed slightly and then coughed.

"Then I'll speak out. I hope you won't blame me whether I'm right or wrong!"

Lu Yan nodded gently, and the yamen runner began to analyze:

"The reason I say you are wise is because you don't have the money to give to the gambling den. Now handing the man over is like paying your debts. It's only right and proper!"

The bailiff was counting on his fingers.

"The first benefit of this is that it shuts up the people at the gambling house. It also solves the problem and leaves them speechless!"

"The second benefit is that I can get some money to give to that old lady, so she won't have to worry about the rest of her life."

Lu Yan nodded with a smile and asked again.

"Only this?"

The bailiff shook his head and continued to speak by extending his third finger.

"This will save the son's life. He was bought with silver. The gambling house will order him around, but they won't deliberately beat or scold him or threaten his life. They won't do business at a loss."

"This man was handed over by the adults. I believe they dare not come recklessly. Therefore, the son's life is saved, and the old man does not have to worry anymore."

The yamen runner praised Lu Yan's method for a while, and finally Lu Yan added a little more.

"There's one more thing you didn't mention. This guy will definitely learn a lesson when he goes there, and he'll stop gambling."

"Besides, once you see through the gambling house's tricks and schemes, no matter who you are, you will no longer be interested in gambling. You will also realize how much of a jerk you were before."

The yamen runner nodded repeatedly to Lu Yan and praised him.

"You are indeed wise, my little one has learned a lot from me. I will definitely follow you and continue to learn this multi-faceted method of handling things."

Lu Yan nodded with a faint smile on his face, and said as a matter of course:

"You never stop learning, and I still have a lot to teach you!"

Ok?

Outside.

Chen Qingwan, who had already thought of 108 ways for Lu Yan to die, was suddenly stunned.

And...this kind of statement?

It seems that this could be a solution.

She originally thought that Lu Yan was just handling it carelessly, but she didn't expect that there was such a hidden story and a profound truth behind it.

It seems that this guy is not as bad as imagined. His way of handling things is not bound by formalities.

If the gambling house forces him to pay back the money, his family may be destroyed and neither the old man nor his son will survive.

in fact.

Chen Qingwan originally thought that Lu Yan should protect the people and rebuke the gambling house.

however.

After Lu Yan did this.

Chen Qingwan seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

If she followed her original idea, the people in the gambling house would definitely be dissatisfied, and the person who borrowed the money would feel that he didn't have to pay it back.

If that’s the case, I’ll just continue gambling, so how can I think about paying back the money or stopping?

Lu Yan's current approach is indeed killing two birds with one stone. It not only upholds the principle of paying back debts, but also teaches the gambler a lesson.

The current verdict left the people in the gambling house speechless, saved the old man's life and his son's life, and made the old man accept this choice.

The more Chen Qingwan thought about it, the more she felt that Lu Yan's approach was brilliant, and her eyes lit up.

"Brilliant! What kind of brain can come up with such a solution?"

Chen Qingwan couldn't help but praise.

Qiao'er realized something was wrong when she heard Chen Qingwan speaking loudly. Now Chen Qingwan clapped her hands again, and she was suddenly startled.

"Your Majesty, don't scare them!"

Only then did Chen Qingwan realize that her impression of Lu Yan had changed in the past few days and he had become more outspoken.

At this time, Lu Yan heard the noise outside and realized that someone was eavesdropping on his conversation with the yamen runner.

He bent down, picked up a stone with his fingers, and threw it in the direction of the sound.

Qiao'er reacted immediately, protecting Chen Qingwan and dodged the stone attack.

boom!

The stone hit the wall.

"Someone's eavesdropping, come with me!"

Before Lu Yan finished speaking, he had already rushed towards the gate of the county government office.
