Chapter 68: Come to the door again

Lu Haoshan said calmly: "About 120 miles northeast of Jiangyou, there is a Liubian Post. This post is not an ordinary post station, but a post station collected by Jinyiwei. The postmaster Sun Xiongbin is an external staff member of Fanzi Development. He specializes in collecting information. I received a secret report. Sun Xiongbin has been collecting information from my Jiangyou, trying to be unfavorable to Lu. If Brother Yuan can help me get rid of Liubian Post and Sun Xiongbin, it is best to be silent, and that is, he will be grateful."

After saying that, Lu Haoshan added: "It's good for us."

"Sir" Yuan Sanyi said seriously: "We are your private guards now. You just need to tell the villain the message of killing, and you don't need to explain the reason to the little one."

The army belongs to the country. Since ancient times, individuals cannot be easily mobilized by the command and dispatch of the tiger talisman. Therefore, private guards have become the choice of many in power. Private guards are also called private soldiers. In the sense, they are mercenaries. In fact, since the Zhou Dynasty, private soldiers have existed. People have accumulated private soldiers in all dynasties, but the scale is different. Take the late Ming Dynasty as an example. Soldiers are not trained enough, and military discipline is corrupt, which is not important. Many generals like to accumulate private soldiers. The most typical example is the general Li Chengliang, known as 8,000 private soldiers. Li Chengliang used his private soldiers as the main force, guarding Liaodong for 30 years, and won great victory ten times. The arrogant desperate Ho Chi was beaten to surrender, and it was only after Li Chengliang's death that he raised the flag to rebel.

This private guard is good, and he doesn't ask the reason at all. He does it directly regardless of right or wrong. When he heard Yuan San's words, Lu Haoshan was happy and said without changing his expression: "Okay, I'll wait for good news from Brother Yuan."

"Please rest assured, a mere Liubianyi will be able to win. You can wait for our good news."

Lu Haoshan nodded, and did not ask Yuan San what he was going to do. Private guards like them didn't know how many secret tasks they had performed, and they had extremely rich experience. After their master was thrown into prison, he could still escape from the Jinyiwei's net with his family. How could such people need to be taught by themselves?

"Brothers, okay, by the way, I heard that two brothers got married the day before yesterday, and Lu didn't even drink a drink of water and wine." After talking about the main work, Lu Haoshan began to talk about some relaxed topics.

Yuan San hurriedly said, "This is all for the blessing of the adults. Brothers all say that you are a great benefactor. You must make up for this glass of water and wine."

"I just did a little trivial thing, so let's do it. After Brother Yuan eliminated Sun Xiongbin and eliminated his confidants, I will hold a banquet to cleanse you all. Then I will congratulate the two newly married brothers."

"Sir Xie."

After the two of them exchanged a few more greetings, Lu Haoshan took Liu Jinzhu and left.

As soon as Lu Haoshan left, Zhang Guang, nicknamed Xiao Zhuge in the private guard, came over and said in a low voice: "Brother, what's the matter with that County Magistrate Lu?"

"It's nothing, kill someone and yourself." Yuan San said lightly.

During the Liaodong expedition for many years, he crawled out of the pile of dead people countless times. He had countless blood on his hands and countless souls under the knife. Yuan San not only forgot the horror of death, but also developed a numbness to life, including his own life. For him, the most important thing now is to cherish the people in front of him, cherish his wife and children, and cherish these brothers who had been through life and death together. In this life, compared to the days of escape, it was simply paradise.

It is not sad to be used by a person. The most tragic thing about a person is that he has no value to be used.

Zhang Guang said in surprise: "What are he going to do if he kills someone?"

"Maybe there is a grudge, maybe it's a test of us to see if we can use it for him."

"Brother, let's do it?" Zhang Guang said carefully.

"Do it!" Yuan San said without hesitation: "No matter what, others have taken us in. The master was thrown into prison. Life and death are uncertain. Now our grandfather does not love his uncle or be close to him, and he has become a fugitive. Although this county magistrate Lu is determined to recruit us and want to use us, he is also an open and honest person. Now we eat other people's meals and receive the monthly money given by others, we naturally have to be a private guard."

Zhang Guang hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Brother, I feel that you value County Magistrate Lu very much. You are not thinking..."

Yuan San smiled sadly: "The master is in prison. Judging from the efforts of the monks to pursue us, it is probably difficult to turn over. Our emperor is suspicious by nature and has a worrying life. Now he is just trying to find a way out for his brothers. The Lu County Magistrate is not a big man, but he is very righteous, and he has a calm and steady attitude when speaking and doing things. Judging from his lack of hesitation to take us in, he is definitely not an ordinary person. This time he asked us to kill people and asked us to help. Based on my years of experience, it is very likely that this time he will test it to see if we can use it for him. Secondly, we have taken action and further cut off our way out. However, we have no choice now."

"Then do we really do his business?"

"That's not good. Good birds choose trees to live in. If the master can come out, we will naturally have to return to him. If we can't come out, we have to think about it carefully. Anyway, we have to say first and can leave at any time. Whether to stay or not depends on his performance and potential. Okay, let these words be left for the future. Let the big dog and the monkey go to Liubianyi to explore the way first, leave two brothers to guard the big man, and follow me." Yuan San said firmly.

Zhang Guang immediately took the order and said, "Yes, brother."

Just when Yuan San ordered the action, Liu Jinzhu also said in surprise: "Brother Shan, that Liubianyi is in Zitong. How do you know that they are the Jinyiwei's purpose?"

"In fact, it doesn't matter whether they are Jinyiwei's eyes or not. What's important is whether Yuan San's group obeyed my orders." Lu Haoshan said lightly: "Actually, I have never been to Liubianyi, but I have heard that it is a famous black shop."

"But...this..." Liu Jinzhu didn't know what to say at once. Liu Bianyi's luck was too bad. Just for a test, he was the victim of Lu Haoshan's test of Yuan Sanyi.

Lu Haoshan said with a heavy face: "Nothing is wrong. Nowadays, if you want to live a prosperous life, you must either be more lucky than others, be smarter than others, or be crueler than others. Otherwise, why do you eat delicious food and drink spicy food and others swallow porridge?"

Liu Jinzhu thought about this. If Brother Shan hadn't lured Li Xiangcai out and killed him with a fake letter, and embarked on a road of no return, he would have never said that Brother Shan still drinks wild vegetable porridge now, and he might have been starved to death. How could he be as happy as now? As for those unlucky guys, who would have paid attention to? These days, people's lives are as cheap as grass, and people have eaten each other, who would have paid attention to others' lives?

"Brother Shan, where are we going now?"

"Return to the yamen", Lu Haoshan showed a faint smile on his lips: "Get a good rest, we have some important things to do tomorrow."

"Yes, Brother Shan, I'll listen to you." Liu Jinzhu said this again.

...........

The next morning, Lu Haoshan brought a group of people from the house to deliver a plaque made of the best mahogany made of the best mahogany in the workshop, and beat gongs and drums to Zhaojia Village.

The Zhao clan was confident and sent someone to the county government office to pay the 3,300 taels of donation in just two days. It can be said that he was very trustworthy and had a good start and set a good example. Lu Haoshan was not vague. As soon as he came back, he immediately made a plaque and sent it to him with great fanfare. This was also a commendation of the Zhao clan.

When Lu Haoshan and his party came to Zhaojia Village again, unlike when they arrived for the first time, not only were there welcome people, but the reception staff were also significantly higher: this time, Zhao Min was not responsible for the reception, but the person who was thin and bright in his eyes was in charge of the reception. Behind the old man, there were several elderly people over 60 years old, and Zhao Min fell behind them.

"Sir, the old man in front is Lizheng from Zhaojia Village, Zhao Yuqing, the leader of the Zhao clan, and the elders behind him are the elders of the clan." Seeing Lu Haoshan's eyes confused, Su Fang, the clan's clan's clan, gave instructions in time.

Oh, it turns out that he is Zhao Yuqing, the main brain of the Zhao clan. Although he is over 60 years old, he can vaguely tell that he was a handsome man when he was young. No wonder there are some similarities between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Zhao Yuqing greets the emperor, the county magistrate is here, Zhaojia Village is so bright." After coming up with a smile, Zhao Yuqing saluted Lu Haoshan with a calm expression.

Lu Haoshan hurriedly supported him and said, "I dare not, I dare not, Chief Zhao, please be exempted from courtesy. You are a great charity from Jiangyou. This is a killing of my official position."

Some things, if others respect you one september, you have to give you three points, otherwise you will leave a bad impression on others. Lu Haoshan noticed that although he is an official and Zhao Yuqing is a civilian, Zhao Yuqing claimed his name instead of a "villain" when he saluted. It can be seen that he is proud of himself. This is no wonder. He has a wide connection. When he set up a house here, he was a magistrate. Even a magistrate could be invited, so he naturally would not take a small county magistrate seriously.

In fact, no one knows the background of the Zhao clan, nor does anyone know what trump card the old patriarch Zhao has. Lu Haoshan dared not raise it and quickly helped him up.

After all, he donated more than 3,000 taels of real money and silver. This one alone deserves respect.

Zhao Yuqing pretended to behave. With Lu Haoshan helping him, he stood up and looked at Lu Haoshan with admiration and said, "It turns out that he is a young man. The county magistrate is young. He is not only knowledgeable and talented, but also kind-hearted. He works hard for the people of Jiangyou. Zhao is also deeply admired."

"I dare not, thank you for the generous donation of the old patriarch Zhao." Lu Haoshan said with a serious face: "This official represents the county government and the elders and villagers of Jiangyou. Thank you for the timely help from the Zhao clan. He specially sent a plaque to express the generous actions of the Zhao clan and the feelings of fish and water. Please accept it with a smile."
