Chapter 781 Assassin Attacks

While Zhu Xu was sleeping, the three people who had been following him finally rushed over and looked at the restaurant of the three-story building from afar.

"Miss, what should I do?" the stout man said in a urn.

Zhu Xu led dozens of people and arranged them around the restaurant, with light and darkness, and needles could not be inserted into them, making it difficult for them to get close to them.

The woman was also watching, pondering for a while, and said, "Uncle Chu, go around and see if there are any flaws. We can touch it in at night. Maoshan, go and see if you can buy some people for our use."

The two of them listened, looked at her again and said, "What about you?"

The woman wiped her face and said, "Didn't you say the dog emperor is lustful? I'm going to enter that restaurant."

"No!" The two men spoke in unison and objected at the same time!

The young man Zhao Maoshan looked serious and said, "Miss, you can't go! Isn't that a sheep enters the tiger's mouth? The dog emperor will definitely not let you go!"

The thick man Chu Fuyao frowned and said in a urn, "Miss, you are the only one left in the Zhang family. You must not have something wrong!"

Zhang Su glanced at the two of them, held the short knife in his hand, and sneered: "Don't worry, I will definitely win the dog emperor before that!"

"No!" Zhao Maoshan firmly disagreed and said, "Miss, the dog emperor is surrounded by people. Even if you kill him, you can't escape easily. We should think of other ways..."

Chu Fuyao also said, "Miss, let's kill the dog emperor, you'd better not take risks, otherwise how can we be worthy of the master and madam?"

Zhang Yu remained calm and said, "Don't worry, I have a way! After I go in, you will find a way to get close. I will pass on the message to you, find a chance to trick the dog emperor out, kill him in one fell swoop, and just take its head and walk away."

When the two saw that she had decided, they both wanted to speak but stopped.

Zhang Yu looked at the small building where Zhu Xu was, his eyes firmly and murderous intent were as iron as iron, and said, "You go and prepare and act separately."

Chu Fuyao looked at Zhang Yu and had to say, "Then, Miss, you have to be careful. If you have any problems, send a signal. I, Old Chu, will kill you and save you."

Zhao Maoshan frowned, but he still didn't want to, but he couldn't stop him and kept silent.

The three of them quickly left separately and made up their minds around Zhu Xu's restaurant.

Zhao Rujiao came faster than expected. Zhu Xu had not woken up yet, and Cao Huachun was sitting with him.

Zhao Rujiao was in Fu. Jian had just met Zhu Xu, but now he looked at Cao Huachun and said, "Dad father-in-law, I wonder what the Emperor Xuanmo General is doing?"

Shaanxi and Xi are a complex place, and many people have already fallen. Zhao Rujiao is not at ease even if nothing happens.

Cao Huachun smiled slightly and said, "General Zhao, don't worry, you will know when the emperor wakes up."

Zhao Rujiao knew that it was difficult to find out from Cao Huachun's mouth, so he nodded, didn't say anything, and waited quietly.

Not long after, Wang Yizhou suddenly came in and said in Cao Huachun's ear: "Dadfather, there are two sneaky people around."

Cao Huachun was stunned and then said, "Are they the people who followed him all the way from Huguang?"

Wang Yizhou thought for a while and said, "I don't know. At that time, they were all wearing masks, and now they are all dressed in ordinary clothes, wandering around the restaurant."

Cao Huachun stood up, walked to the window, and looked through the gap.

Sure enough, a middle-aged man not far from the wall seemed to be pushing a farm cart, but in fact he looked around and was observing the surroundings of the restaurant.

Wang Yizhou observed for a while and said, "There is another person in front, who is quite proud to talk to people nearby, and there are weapons on them."

Zhao Rujiao had noticed it, and his mind was shaking. He stepped forward and said, "Did you come from Huguang? Should you stop sending someone to arrest him and interrogate him?"

Cao Huachun thought slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't know who they are and what forces are behind them, so don't worry. General Zhao, your cavalry should be moved closer, so you should hide. The family asked the Jinyiwei to check the situation around him and make a decision when the emperor wakes up."

"Yes!" Zhao Rujiao agreed and turned around and left. The emperor's safety was too important, and he dared not be careless at all.

Until the evening, Zhu Xu did not wake up and slept very well.

Cao Huachun did not disturb him, and dealt with the documents in his hand and wrote the books.

The shopkeeper and Xiaoer brought a plate, which was very simple, with more soup and few dishes, and the staple food was sweet potatoes and steamed buns.

He looked at Cao Huachun and said, "This is your young master. Save some food. If there is another disaster, we will reduce our place. You can stay for two days and leave quickly. This place is not suitable for you." Obviously, the shopkeeper also saw that Zhu Xu and others were not simple.

Cao Huachun had roughly understood what was going on, and he didn't care, saying, "Okay, thank you shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper nodded and then said, "See that your young master is still sick, please find a doctor to see it. You can't delay it. Now even minor illnesses can become serious illnesses, so don't care."

Cao Huachun smiled and said, "Okay, thank you shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper turned his head and looked at Zhu Xu's room again, then turned around and left.

Cao Huachun held the plate, went upstairs, pushed open Zhu Xu's door, and looked up and saw that Zhu Xu had already gotten up, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, are you awake?"

Zhu Xu slept for an afternoon, and was in a much better condition. He was tidying up his clothes and glanced at him, "Well, isn't Zhao Lujiao here?"

Cao Huachun put down the plate and said, "Yes, I've been here. The person who was following the emperor in Huguang appeared again. I asked Lord Zhao to dispatch troops to protect him not far away."

Zhu Xu was about to bend down to wash his face, but he was stunned and said, "Are you here?"

Cao Huachun took two steps forward and said, "Yes, there is no news from the Jinyiwei yet. I am thinking about whether I want to arrest a few, and I will interrogate them quietly..."

As soon as he said that, Wang Yizhou came in from outside and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Master, an assassin has touched it in. Will the Wei-judge capture and kill?"

"one?"

Zhu Xu put his chin with one hand and said thoughtfully: "If you want to grab it, tighten the inside and loose the outside, see what they are going to do."

"Yes!" Wang Yizhou responded and turned around and went out.

Zhu Xu washed her face, cheered up her spirits, sat at the table, staring at today's dinner, and was dazed.

Although he doesn't like big fish and meat, and is rich in clothes and food, it's the first time he has such a simple formula.

The clear soup is poorly watery, sweet potatoes, steamed buns, and a few vegetables are just supper.

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu's expression and said behind him: "Your Majesty, you have already investigated it. The disaster here is quite serious. In the past two years, it has almost been without any grains. They are all from the Governor's Office to provide disaster relief. It's better to have a farm now. Some things can come out of the field, otherwise I don't know how many people will starve to death."

Zhu Xu had already expected that Qianli of the Piercing Land is not an adjective, but an actual situation, and it will be even more serious in the future.

He picked up the chopsticks, then put them down, picked up the sweet potatoes and peeled them, and said, "How does this farm work?"

"Return to the emperor... the county magistrate usually doesn't care about the matter."

Cao Huachun had already figured it out and said carefully: "With twenty-one security chiefs jointly managed, the strong laborers were all divided into teams, and the harvest was divided into 70% of the harvest was handed over. The others were all distributed to each family, and the grain was distributed every three months. They were carefully calculated to ensure that they could not starve to death."

‘Don’t starve to death’ instead of eating a full stomach.

Zhu Xu took a bite of sweet potato and said, "Have there any problems?"

"At first, many people were not willing," Cao Huachun said: "They were all big families. The governor's yamen removed the tenants of these big families and the long-term workers first. Later, these big families could not bear it anymore, so they had to compromise and 'rented' the land to the county government. There was no big storm."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "It's better not to use brute force. Li Banghua has done a good job in this. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow."

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu and said for a while: "Master, it's not safe here anymore. Why don't you go to West as soon as possible?"

Although Shaanxi and Xi have been relatively calm in recent years, there are still chaos in the people and have never been truly stable. Lie Zi, the former governor Li Jingbai, is not far away.

Zhu Xu drank a sip of the soup, which was a bit astringent and had a strong alkaline taste. It should be because the well water was not deep enough.

Putting down the bowl, Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "Don't worry, look again, let Zhao Lujiao be closer."

If it weren't for time, Zhu Xu even wanted to go to Sichuan to see how difficult the country of Tianfu was now.

Cao Huachun didn't say anything after hearing Zhu Xu's words. Zhao Shushu had 5,000 cavalry nearby, so he should be in time if he had anything to do.

Zhu Xu finished eating in a few seconds, clapped his hands and said, "Let the Jinyiwei sort out all the information about the chieftains in our country, and then order people to transfer to me, Guizhou and I want to see it."

"Yes." Cao Huachun said.

Zhu Xu had already heard some movement outside, so he got up and went out, Wang Yizhou came towards him and whispered, "Master, the person has been caught, but his mouth is tight, and he is unwilling to say anything. Should I find a place to be tortured?"

Now living in this restaurant, the shopkeeper and the people around them are quite alert to them. If something happens, they will probably be driven away directly.

"Let's go and have a look." Zhu Xu said.

"Yes." Wang Yizhou led Zhu Xu toward an imperial guard's room.

When a group of people saw Zhu Xu, they saluted silently. Zhu Xu waved his hand and stepped in. They saw a strong man with all kinds of ties and his mouth was blocked.

When he saw Zhu Xu, he immediately widened his eyes, his eyes were angry, his murderous intent was as real as the essence, and he was struggling with a giggle.

Zhu Xu looked at him, held his hands behind his back, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that you know me? One person? There should be no power behind it, just a few people. Are there other people tonight? Which family is the guard? The royal family? The nobles and nobles? The bandits?"

The one who was arrested was Chu Fuyao. He listened to Zhu Xu's question and snorted coldly at first, but then shook his head, stared at his eyes, looked angry, and struggled.

Zhu Xu kept staring at Chu Fuyao's expression, and nodded slightly before long, "It seems that he is almost done with me. I'm optimistic about him. Maybe someone will come to rescue him or something."

"Yes!" Wang Yizhou looked at Zhu Xu with some admiration and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Maoshan was going to touch it, but he felt it was too quiet and he retreated. He gathered with Zhang Su, frowned and looked at the small building where Zhu Xu was worried.
