Chapter 138 Why are you shaking?
Lu Zhan was stunned. Of course he recognized the token. Even though he was unwilling, he had to bend his knees and kneel on the ground, shouting "Long live the king".
When the guards in front of him saw him like this, they looked at each other, then dropped their weapons and knelt down one after another.
At the scene where there had just been a heated confrontation, everyone except Xu Xing was kneeling.
"Lord Lu, don't say that all the charges I just listed against you are true. Even if it's just a suspicion, if the emperor wants to investigate you, you should cooperate with the investigation. If you resist stubbornly, you will only commit a more serious crime."
After Xu Xing criticized them harshly, he ordered Luo Cheng to detain all the people involved in the mine, and all the miners stopped working and returned to their tents to wait.
Although Lu Zhan was already in a state of panic, he still held on to a glimmer of hope: "The Imperial Envoy is right. I should cooperate with the investigation."
"Humph."
Luo Cheng looked down on Lu Zhan. He snorted coldly and walked up to him. He stretched out his hand and pushed him. With his amazing arm strength, Lu Zhan was almost thrown over. "Let's go, Lord Lu. I will greet you personally."
"you--"
Lu Zhan racked his brains but couldn't figure it out. He and Luo Cheng had no grudges or hatred in the past or present, so where did his hostility towards him come from?
A reckless man is a reckless man!
Xu Xing and Jiang Hao had long figured out where Lu Zhan's evidence of crime was hidden. After controlling Lu Zhan and others, they personally led people to search for evidence.
When Lu Zhan saw Xu Xing take the account book out of the round table without any damage, he finally panicked...
How could he know so clearly?
"Master Lu, why are you shaking?"
Luo Cheng's voice was loud and clear, and everyone in the room looked towards them.
Lu Zhan said nothing, and slowly closed his eyes, praying in his heart that these people did not know the secrets hidden in the study. As long as they were not discovered, these account books would be a pile of waste paper.
Xu Xing quietly and carefully looked at the controlled officials, but he did not see the figure of the old man in the crowd. Could it be that he had left?
They didn't meet this person on the way here, so...either he hid in the mine, or he took refuge in the mountains.
"Come with a team, follow me!"
-
Before Luo Cheng led his troops up the mountain to capture Lu Zhan, the old man woke up from a nightmare in the middle of the night and his left eyelid kept twitching. He had a bad premonition, so he led his followers into the forest before daybreak.
Sure enough, just after daybreak, a large number of troops occupied the entire mine.
Fortunately, they ran fast, otherwise, they would have become prisoners like Lu Zhan.
It doesn't matter if they become prisoners, but if there is a spineless person among those who follow and drags His Highness out, it will be a big trouble.
"Sir, the spies just reported that the prince of Weiguo is leading his troops here. We need to leave quickly."
Yan Heng spoke in a slightly panicked voice, urging the old man to set off.
The prince of the Duke of Wei had been stationed in the northern border with the Duke of Wei. When did he come to Qingchuan County? But no matter when, it was more important to escape now.
The old man was also shocked. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Go separately and meet at the Cliff of Broken Souls when the time comes."
"Everything is as directed by Sir."
Immediately, the old man and Yan Heng split into two teams, each leading their men and disappearing into the forest.
Without Jiang Hao's pills to protect him, Xu Xing didn't chase very far. The Shudao Mountains are huge, with complex terrain and rampant wild animals. Even if these people managed to escape, it was unknown whether they could get out alive.
"Prince, are you still chasing?"
Xu Xing shook his head: "Go back first and tell Zhuifeng to lead his men to guard the north side of Shudao Mountain. If anyone is found coming out of the mountain, catch them immediately."
