    "What are you afraid of? It's a blessing, not a curse, but you can't avoid it! Now that he has taken a difficult job from the king, is it possible that he still dares to start operating on me?"

    Lu Qingyuan works as an errand in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he is naturally much better informed than the average person.

    Of course he also understands how difficult Mei Changlin¡¯s next errand is. One hundred thousand shi of food in ten days is no joke.

    Even though his harvest in the past few days is indeed pretty good, and he has confiscated a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, there is no way for these things to be directly turned into food.

    Now that there is going to be a war, naturally people are hoarding food everywhere.

    The price of this food continues to skyrocket, but there are still people who continue to buy it.

    "Master, is he here for the food in our village?"

    Mrs. Lu suddenly had an idea and asked in a lowered voice.

    "I'll lend him ten courages, unless he doesn't want to live anymore. The food we have is not just our own!"

    Lu Qingyuan sneered, not taking Mei Changlin to heart at all.

    "That's what you say, otherwise I should send someone to the Lu Mansion to tell you?"

    Mrs. Lu asked carefully.

    "It's too late now. I'd have gone to bed if I laughed at this time. Let's talk about it tomorrow. If I don't come back tonight, you will send someone to the Yamen to tell me tomorrow morning!"

    Lu Qingyuan thought about it carefully and finally agreed.

    Indeed, it is better to be careful in this matter. If this guy jumps over the wall in a hurry, he might really suffer this time!

    "If you don't open the door, I'm going to break down the door!"

    By the time Lu Qingyuan got dressed and walked all the way to the gate, he could already hear the officers and soldiers outside being fussy.

    "These people are all rough people, and they naturally speak without restraint when they speak. Why do they sound so ugly?"

    "You are so blind that you don't know who I am?"

    Listening to their scoldings getting more and more outrageous, Lu Qingyuan directly asked the door to be opened, and then walked out in a swaggering manner.

    "Mr. Lu, I'm really sorry. We are also following orders. Please come with us!"

    After seeing clearly the armor on those people, Lu Qingyuan's eyebrows also wrinkled.

    "These people are all the most elite night riders. Moreover, the few hundred people who came to form this formation, could it be possible that they formed such a large formation just to catch me?"

    "Very good, let me see what tricks you can come up with?"

    Lu Qingyuan sneered, then strode forward and came directly to the middle of the team.

    But those people had no intention of leaving at all, which made Lu Qingyuan couldn't help but frown.

    "Don't you want me to go back with you? What are you waiting for?"

    "Master Lu, let's just wait for a while!"

    "Let me go, let me go, why are you arresting me!"

    At this moment, Mr. Hou, the accountant of the Lu family, walked out of the front door, being pushed and pushed by several officers and soldiers.

    "You dare to arrest people in my Lu family?"

    The moment he saw Mr. Hou, cold sweat broke out on Lu Qingyuan's back.

    "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. If you have any questions, you should go back and talk to us! We are just following orders, leaving five hundred people to guard the Lu family compound. Without the order of Mr. Tingwei, no one can  Come and go as you please!¡±

    "you dare!"

    Lu Qingyuan immediately became angry, Mei Changlin didn¡¯t give him any face at all!

    He has indeed been busy hoarding things recently, and  Almost all of these transactions are handled by Mr. Hou.

    If he is really caught, everything they have been doing recently will be exposed.

    There are many things you can do, but it¡¯s hard to say!

    If things that are not on the table are brought to the table, he will not be the only one who will be unhappy!

    ¡°Master Lu, please don¡¯t embarrass us and take us away!¡±

    Several soldiers riding at night stepped forward and grabbed Lu Qingyuan's arm, dragging him up and leaving without saying a word.

    Although Lu Qingyuan has been struggling hard, he is just a weak scholar, how can he compete with these people.

    After struggling for more than half an hour, he was tied up and brought back to the court.In the lobby of the mansion.

    "Mr. Mei, you have such great authority!"

    The moment he saw Mei Changlin, all Lu Qingyuan's anger exploded.

    "It turns out to be Mr. Lu, why don't you untie him quickly?"

    Mei Changlin smiled, then stretched out his hand to signal to the soldiers beside him.

    Several soldiers immediately came forward to help him, and he untied the rope from his hands.

    But even so, Lu Qingyuan's raging anger still couldn't be vented.

    "Mr. Mei, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation for this matter, we will leave tomorrow morning and have a good talk in front of the Prime Minister!"

    Lu Qingyuan roared angrily.

    "I don't know what kind of explanation you want, Mr. Lu?"

    Mei Changlin smiled, then stood up and slowly came to Lu Qingyuan's side, and asked with a smile.

    "You rushed into my Lu family's yard for no reason, and you also arrested people from my Lu family. There should be an explanation for this matter, right?"

    Looking at the smile on Mei Changlin's face, Lu Qingyuan snorted coldly, and then said.

    "For no reason? I don't think so!"

    The smile on Mei Changlin's face slowly faded away.

    "What do you mean by the surname Mei?"

    Although Lu Qingyuan also felt that something was wrong with the situation, if he softened his attitude at this time, there would be no chance of a comeback.

    "As the long history of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the annual salary is only fifteen hundred dan. And as far as I know, you seem to be from a poor family. Your ancestors did not leave you any home or land. In less than half a year,  Time, sir, you are now well clothed and well fed, and your family has more than 10,000 acres of fertile land, don¡¯t you think you should say something to me?¡±

    Mei Changlin smiled, then gave a heavy slap on the wall and asked.

    "What are you talking about? I'm just lucky enough to have a wife who knows how to run a household. In the past half year or so in Panyu City, I'm not the only one who has made a fortune? I don't know what you mean, sir?"  "

    Hearing what Mei Changlin said, although the expression on Lu Qingyuan's face was still angry, his tone of voice had softened involuntarily.

    "Since you don't want to tell me, why don't you let me tell you! Three months ago, the frontline military pay that should have been paid out long ago was forced to be postponed by Sir Chang Shi for half a month.  In a matter of months, your Excellency has made 50,000 yuan by relying on this business of raw paint! Does your Excellency still remember this matter?"

    "It's nonsense" (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
