The seven-day average daily update jump word asks for monthly ticket support

Lu Mingzhi was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.Library>

Lu Mingzhi was very depressed. His family traveled across the oceans as early as the end of the Song Dynasty, wandering around the Nanyang area, and finally settled in Luzon, where they took root in the town of Tortoiseshell (now the Philippines).Now he has become the leading dog rich man in Luzon, where he has great power.He was not in charge of this trade route to Daming before. Even if he is not a playboy in the family, he is also a rich man who lacks experience in wind and rain.

This time, he heard his father mentioning to him that the Lu family had established a line with the Lord Fuguo of the Ming Dynasty, and that the stability of this route would earn more benefits in the future. Knowledge, this is the initiative to ask Ying to bring the boat over.He is the third and youngest son of the patriarch, and he has always been favored because of his lack of experience.The old patriarch considered that the youngest son should also increase his knowledge, so he agreed to his request.

In fact, being on the line with the Duke of the Ming Dynasty is also highly secret in the Lu family. Only the core members of the family know this secret, but the patriarch of the Lu family has no need to hide it from his son, and he When he told this secret, he never thought that Lu Mingzhi would take a boat to the Central Plains on a whim.

Unexpectedly, this son really had too little experience, and when he encountered a slight setback, he revealed his trump card and showed off his family's relationship with high-level officials of Ming Dynasty. In the end, Ji Wenhe, a caring person, took advantage of him.

Lu Mingzhi still doesn't understand why Ji Wenhe was so polite at the time, why he was locked up after he got out of his words, until he entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he still didn't understand the reason.However, he didn't receive any harsh treatment along the way, and he didn't know the harshness of the Ming Dynasty's criminal law. In his opinion, there is no problem that can't be solved with money. It's just that he hasn't had the chance to meet the person in charge, so he can bribe him with money. .So in prison, apart from being depressed, he didn't have much fear and worry. It is also a blessing for the ignorant to be fearless.

Lu Mingzhi was lying on the prison bed bored and thinking wildly, when the prison door slammed, Lu Mingzhi sat up abruptly, and saw the prison door opened wide, and a person walked in slowly, this person was tall, with heavy eyebrows, His complexion is dark, his eyebrows are slightly raised, his eyes are slightly sunken, his jaw is smooth but he has no beard.He wears a tuxedo and a hat on his head.

Lu Mingzhi jumped down to the ground and shouted: "What's the matter with you Daming people? Why did you detain me for no reason? I brought the boat here personally because of the close relationship between you Daming Fuguo Gong and my family." Daming, I never expected you to be so rude to me, I will definitely not let this matter go, and when I go out, I must seek justice from Duke Fu!"

The man sized him up with piercing eyes, and smiled slightly, very warmly.The person who came was Zheng He, one of the best eunuchs in charge in the palace, and one of Zhu Di's cronies.

"You're coming to Daming for the first time?"

"That's right! In the past, when our boat came, it was always very peaceful. Unexpectedly, I brought the boat once, and this happened. What on earth do you guys..."

Zheng He interrupted him, and asked again: "So, Mr. Fu Guogong, you have never seen it?"

Lu Mingzhi said bluntly: 'Not bad', I haven't seen it before!But you Fu Guogong once took the initiative to send someone to flirt with my Lu family, this is what my father said, how can I not know.library r>

Zheng He frowned slightly. The kid in front of him was clearly a dude who had no intentions and lacked experience. He was caught smuggling and smuggling, and he dared to blatantly publicize his family's backstage connections. Such superficiality is really a treasure.

Zheng He said again: "Our family was ordered to confirm your relationship with Fu Guogong. If what you said is true, we will naturally let you out and treat each other with courtesy, but who knows if you are bluffing or not? , pretending to have a relationship with Fu Guogong? You said that Fu Guogong has a very close relationship with your family, so why did Fu Guogong and your family make friends, and why did you go to the ocean to find your family?"

"This one……"

Lu Mingzhi really didn't know the reason of the inner China. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "This...of course it's because my Lu family is the most powerful maritime merchant in Luzon, and you Fu Guogong wants to do business with my family."

Zheng He stared at him closely with eyes like flames, and asked, "Of course the door thinks so, of course it's your own effort..."

Lu Mingzhi blushed, and argued: "Why not, my merchant ship has come, and I handed over the goods to his people, and his people are responsible for protecting our safety. Now, we haven't encountered pirates, but we are confused. I was caught by your people in a daze!"

Zheng He frowned again, knowing that there would be nothing useful to be asked from this trash of the second or even the third or fourth generation ancestor. As soon as you take the boat out to sea, your father puts so much effort into your boat, wouldn't he arrange for someone who is used to traveling by sea to assist you?"

Lu Mingzhi said: "Of course there are. My old housekeeper, Lei Mucai, has been with my father all his life. He has always been in charge of this route. I came out with the ship this time. I originally wanted to come to Daming after delivering the goods. I have seen and seen the local people, who would have thought that, inexplicably, I have seen all kinds of prison cars and prisons along the way, this matter..."

Zheng He suddenly asked, "Duke Fu asked your Lu family to find someone's whereabouts in the Luzon area?"

Lu Mingzhi was stunned, and wondered: "Business is business." Who is looking for? "

After Zheng He heard this, he turned around and left. Two yamen servants who were standing far away saw him coming out and immediately rushed over to lock the prison door. Lu Mingzhi rushed to the fence and chased after him, "Hey, what do you mean? If you don't believe me, you can ask Duke Fu! Let me out and find out!"

Zheng He turned a deaf ear and asked the cell boss, "Where are all the servants of this man locked up...

The prison boss nodded and bowed his head and said: "Grandfather", this surname Lu is an important witness, and he was detained here alone just now, and all his servants were detained together, twelve people in a cell, in an ordinary prison.Eunuch, please..."

In an ordinary prison, in a small cell, there are twelve people in a cell, which is already extremely crowded, and there is a toilet in the corner. Although they have a rest period every day, they have to take turns cleaning the toilet during this time, but There are too many people who can't stand it, and the cell still smells bad all day long.

Most of them are sailors the fastest, and they are also burly and strong men at the time, because they have weapons on board. He is a very strong man.

On the opposite corner of the toilet, at the bottom of the wall sat a white-haired old man, the best seat was given to him, obviously his status was the highest in this cell.

The fact is also the same. This old butler was born and raised in the Lu family, and has served three generations of the Lu family. When the head of this generation was a teenager, Lei Mucai accompanied the head of the family to do business in Nanyang. Lei Mucai definitely has a place, but it's not just as simple as a servant.In fact, in the town of Hawksbill in Luzon, the Lei family also owns its own business name and sea-going ships, which is close to being a semi-independent business company that is a vassal of the Lu family.

It's just that although this business name was established by Lei Mu, it was handed over to his son to take care of it. Lao Lei worked hard for the Lu family all his life and was highly valued by the Lu family. Lao Lei is grateful for the support and help of the Patriarch of the Lu family, and he intends to serve the Lu family all his life.

Therefore, in terms of status, he is inferior to Lu Mingzhi in the Lu family, but in the hearts of these sailors and warriors, his status is higher than that of Lu Mingzhi, and he is deeply respected by all the children and members of the Lu family.

The day before yesterday, the ** family was quietly pulled aside by a jailer during the release.The jailer told about an incident between him and his real trading partner, He Tianyang. This is something that only the two parties who deal with each other know. After gaining his trust, he told him some things, which he actually had before. I know a little bit, because the Patriarch has explained to him before, but through this person, he knows more details.

How sophisticated the ** family is, they immediately realized that there might be problems within Daming, and that the Fu Guogong might have trouble himself. He was entrusted by the patriarch to take the three sons to sea. When the third son went back, he knew that everything the jailer told him must be the key to escape, so he kept it firmly in his heart.

The old housekeeper curled up in the corner, resting his mind, while thinking about this matter. Suddenly, the cell became quiet. The old housekeeper opened his eyes, and saw a few guards walking to the cell, opened the cell door, and looked inside. With one glance, he shouted, "Lei Mucai, come out!"

Lei Mu was taken to a quiet cell. There was only one person in the cell, wearing a dress and hat, sitting quietly on a prison bed.

Leather cells with prison beds are places where prisoners with relatively high status or important status are held, but this person is obviously not a prisoner.

He raised his head, looked at the prisoner who was brought before him, smiled faintly, and said, "The lives of you and the third young master of your family are tied to the next sentence I'm going to ask you, and you have to answer it seriously!"

Lei Mu regained his composure and asked cautiously, "I don't know what this lord... wants to ask?"

The person in front of him has no need for a chin, and the well-informed politicians have vaguely guessed his identity, but he still needs further confirmation before he can say what he knows.

Zheng He said: "Duke Fu Guo gave you the convenience of merchant ships, as a price, did you ever entrust you to find someone on your behalf?"

Lei Mucai's eyes flickered, he hesitated to speak, looked worried, and finally replied reluctantly after a while: "Yes! This old man doesn't know who the Lord Fuguo is looking for, but...he did Entrust me, the Patriarch of the Lu family, to look out for the corpse of a person who recently came from Middle Earth in the Lu Song Dynasty."

Zheng He said: "Although Lu Song is smaller than our Celestial Dynasty", it is also human.Keep it secret, but how does this word find its power..."

Lei Mucai said: "Naturally there are portraits as evidence." "

Zheng He smiled more happily, and said slowly: "I heard that you were born as a book boy, and served the head of the Lu family since childhood.

The book boy of a rich family has dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so you must be able to draw such superficial portraits. I have half a painting here. If you can keep it up, you will save your young master's life! "

Zheng He slowly pulled out a roll of paper from his sleeve, and opened it open. In the world, there are very few people who recognize the face of the emperor. The courtiers of the emperor, who were paying respects to Tian Yan, could recognize the portrait in this painting just by looking at the half of the face above the bridge of the nose.

Zheng He put the portrait in front of him, took out a charcoal pencil and pressed it on the portrait, and looked at Lei Mucai quietly.

A quarter of an hour later, Zheng He led his family out of the gate of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and said to Li Qing, the servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice who rushed over after hearing the news: "This man is an important witness." By the Holy Order, I will take him away!On the day of the interrogation, return it to Zhao! "
