Giving Duke Qin a Great Merit!
After leaving the palace, the sky was already bright.
Tuoba Chici looked at Lu Qing and said,""Lord Lu, I still have some brothers in the Imperial Academy of Medicine, so I won't be accompanying you.”
"If you have any questions about this case, or if you need me, you can come to me at any time. I will fully cooperate with you.”
Lu Qing nodded slightly and smiled warmly.""It's fine. General Tuoba cares about his soldiers. He really loves his soldiers like his own children. I admire him. Moreover, General Tuoba did not rest for the entire night.”
"The case of the rations is not urgent. Don't you have the token of the General Gou Lang? I will start from here for the time being. I believe that this case will definitely be solved and the food and salary will definitely be recovered.”
Tuoba Chici hurriedly nodded. The two of them exchanged some pleasantries before parting ways.
Lu Qing waved his hand as he looked at Tuoba Chici's back. His smile grew wider.
"Lord Shaoqing."
At this moment, Han Min's familiar voice sounded.
He looked at Lu Qing and could not help but take a step back."Lord Shaoqing, why do I feel that your smile is so sinister?”
Pa!
Lu Qing patted Han Min's forehead.
"This official has such a sunny smile and you say it's sinister? If you're blind, you can give it away." Lu Qing snapped.
"But it's so sinister. I'm getting goosebumps.”Han Min whispered in an aggrieved manner.
Lu Qing turned around and said as he walked,""Did you come to find me because of the results of what I asked you to do?”
Han Min quickly leaned over and said,"I went to ask my friends in the Ministry of Revenue. Sure enough, everything was as Lord Shaoqing had expected.”
"The price of grain has risen. Not only in Chang 'an, but in other places as well.”
"However, it's not particularly obvious. It's all rising bit by bit, so even the Ministry of Revenue didn't pay special attention to it. If it weren't for Sir's reminder, perhaps they wouldn't have noticed it yet.”
Lu Qing nodded. After what happened in the palace, he was no longer surprised by this result.
"Alright, I understand. You've been busy all night. Go back and rest.”Lu Qing waved his hand.
"That case?"
"Don't worry about the case anymore. In five days, the truth will be revealed.”
Han Min was stunned. She immediately raised her head to look at Lu Qing and said,"Really? Don't worry about it?"
"Of course, putting on an act is still necessary.”
"For show?"
Han Min looked at Lu Qing suspiciously. She always felt that Lord Shaoqing was a little unreliable!
How many people had died!
Moreover, there was no result on the disappearance of the foreign envoy. If it was not handled well, it would be a major event for the diplomatic relations between the two countries.
Why did it seem like Lord Shaoqing didn't care at all?
However, Han Min knew that she would not be able to solve the case even if she used her brain for a hundred years.
Moreover, this case had been handed over to the Supreme Court, so he could only listen. In any case, if something happened, there was still Lord Shaoqing to take care of it. He just had to hug Lord Shaoqing's thigh.
…………
After parting ways with Han Min, Lu Qing did not return home to rest, nor did he go to the Supreme Court or the Capital Governor's Office.
Instead, he arrived in front of a mansion.
He raised his head and looked at the mansion. It was made of red bricks and green tiles. Although it was not particularly grand, it still showed his status.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Not long after, someone opened the door and looked at Lu Qing suspiciously.""And you are?"
Lu Qing smiled and cupped his hands." Thank you for informing Duke Qin that Lu Qing from the Supreme Court wishes to meet you."”
"So it's Lu Shaoqing."
The person who looked like a butler was obviously someone who knew how to do things. He quickly said,"Lu Shaoqing, please wait for a moment. I'll report to the old master now.”
Not long after, a burst of hearty laughter sounded from inside the door.
Then, the door opened once more, and Qin Qiong actually took the initiative to welcome him.
When he saw Lu Qing, he suddenly bowed to Lu Qing and said,""Lu Qing, there were too many people here before, so it wasn't convenient for this old man to bow. But now…you've saved my cousin and cleared my cousin's name. Please accept this old man's bow.”
When Lu Qing saw that such a big shot like Qin Qiong was actually bowing and worshipping him on the street, he hurriedly waved his hand and said,""General Qin, please don't be like this.”
However, Qin Qiong stubbornly bowed before straightening up and saying heartily,""We martial artists are not so particular. We have to repay a favor. If you don't let me repay you, then you're humiliating me and looking down on me.”
Lu Qing was speechless.
Great!
What else can I say?
How could there be such a…cute person in this world?
He smiled helplessly and said,"In that case, I can only accept it."”
Qin Qiong laughed and said,"That's right. You're a man. Don't be so calculative."”
He looked at Lu Qing and said," Let's go. Follow me into the residence. Let's have a good drink."”
"General Qin, I'm here for an urgent matter," Lu Qing quickly said.”
"Hmm?"
When Qin Qiong heard this, he stopped in his tracks. He looked at Lu Qing with a torch-like gaze and said,"What is it? As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you.”
"Do you believe me, General Qin?" Lu Qing's expression suddenly turned solemn.
When Qin Qiong saw Lu Qing being so serious, his smile also disappeared. He said,"Your character has been tested. If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have interacted with you at all.”
"That's good."
"General Qin, I'm going to give you a great merit. Are you willing to accept it?" Lu Qing asked.”
…………
Ever since Lu Qing accepted the case of investigating the rations, four days had passed in a flash.
In these four days, Lu Qing had fully displayed his " corpse position and vegetarian meal " posture.
Although he was also investigating a case, everyone could feel that he was slacking off.
He had brought the term slacking off at work to the Tang Empire and influenced many officials.
One evening.
Lu Qing was called to the palace.
As soon as he entered the hall, he found Tuoba Chici standing there.
When Tuoba Chici saw Lu Qing, his expression turned ugly. He was no longer as warm as he was four days ago.
Li Shi Min also looked like he wanted to grab Lu Qing and beat him up.
"Lu Qing, what have you been up to these past four days? I asked you to investigate, how did you do it?”
Lu Qing didn't feel nervous and smiled calmly.""I did."
"How did you check?"
Li Shi Min was so angry that he laughed," Tuoba Chici told you to investigate the case of the missing grain and salary, but you didn't even go to the scene. You didn't even go out of Chang 'an City once.”
Tuoba Chici looked at Lu Qing with an unpleasant expression and said,""Lord Lu, if you have any objections to this general, Lord Lu can say it directly, but Lord Lu, don't delay the investigation of the case!”
"If Lord Lu doesn't want to investigate, you can get someone else to investigate. It's been four days. The thief has had such a long time, so the food has long been hidden.”
Lu Qing did not seem to notice Tuoba Chici's displeasure.
He smiled and said,"General Tuoba, please don't frame me. I have no objections to you."”
"Moreover, I've really investigated and have already made some progress. I'll be able to solve the case soon!”
" What?!"
Li Shiming and Tuoba Chici were both stunned.
You haven't even left Chang 'an yet, and you've touched the fish for four days, and now you're telling me that you're going to solve the case?
"What are you playing at?" Li Shiming frowned. If you keep me in suspense, I will beat you to death.”
Li Shi Min accidentally said something intimate to Lu Qing.
When Tuoba Chici saw this scene, he was secretly shocked. Before this, Li Shiming still treated Lu Qing with a business-like attitude.
But now, he realized that Li Shiming was too fond of Lu Qing.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember the five-day deadline?" Lu Qing chuckled. It's only been four days."
"However, since Your Majesty and General Tuoba are so curious, let me tell you.”
