Both sides have implicitly stated their attitudes, and what should be said has been spread on the table intentionally or unintentionally, and the next thing can only be the backstage wrestling between the two sides and their own choices. The people in a large room put down the previous tension, with a hypocritical smile on their faces, and between the staggered and staggered, flattery and sycophants flew together, and the meat jokes of Yuejing City and Shayang County turned into battle, and it was the county guard Quan Yun and the imperial historian Zhou Wenlong, who had almost turned their faces before, and the two of them also laughed and touched several cups together.

The father and daughter who sang the miserable and miserable minor tune of relatives and relatives had naturally received the bounty at this moment, and they retreated with a thousand thanks, replaced by a tall song and dance, singing and dancing, and the scenes of the peaceful and prosperous era were staged one after another, no matter how you look at it, it is a harmonious scene of guests and friends.

In the lively hall, an old man in a small hat in Tsing Yi quietly walked through the hall, walked to the side of the old lady Liu above, and whispered a few words in his ear, Old Lady Liu's face stiffened slightly, sat up straight, his face collapsed slightly for a moment but immediately relaxed, nodded slightly, the old man in Tsing Yi bowed down and retreated, a small episode, it didn't seem to attract much attention.

The dance was still dancing, the song was still singing, and after drinking a few glasses with several local gentry who came forward to toast, Mrs. Liu put down the wine glass with a smile, and said to Zhou Wenlong with a smile: "Lord Zhou, the old man will retire for a while, this person is old, some things are not very useful, offend!" ”

"Old lady, please!" Zhou Wenlong thought that Old Lady Liu was going to Xiaojie, so he smiled knowingly and nodded again and again.

Old lady Liu stood up, smiled and nodded around, then turned around, and walked tremblingly towards the back hall with the support of an old servant.

As soon as he broke away from the bright line of everyone, Old Lady Zhao's waist straightened, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace, and his trembling legs strode forward vigorously.

"Where is he?"

The old man in Tsing Yi, who had exited the hall earlier, bowed his head and said, "In the back hall." ”

"How many people else know?"

"This person is also sensible, after he fell to Shayang County, he didn't go anywhere else, but found me directly, I brought him here, so far, no one knows about it." Old man said.

"Well, well done, what's his name?"

"It's the county lieutenant of Feng County, Lu Feng."

"Lu Feng?" Old lady Liu nodded, "It turned out to be him, then it's no wonder, I know him, he is a smart person." ”

While talking, in a small hall in the backyard, Lu Feng walked around the house like an ant on a hot pot. The light in the room was dim, and as soon as Lu Feng looked up, he saw Mrs. Liu at the door. Immediately pushed the gold mountain to pour the jade pillar, and knelt on the ground with a poppy, "Feng County Lufeng, I've seen the old lady." ”

"Get up and talk, what the hell is going on?" Old lady Liu waved her hand quietly, "Xingwen led an army of 5,000 to exterminate a group of bandits, why did he still lose the battle?" ”

Lu Feng stood up, but he still bowed his body and lowered his head, "Old lady, it's not just that you have suffered a defeat, but that the whole army has been wiped out, from General Liu down, nearly a thousand soldiers from five thousand counties have died in battle, and the rest have all become prisoners." ”

With a click, the armrest of the mahogany Taishi chair turned into pieces in the hands of Old Lady Liu, even if he had experienced no matter how big the storm and how much he had seen the wind and clouds, at this moment Old Lady Liu's face still showed a look of horror.

"How is that possible?" It was the old man in Tsing Yi who screamed: "A group of bandits of more than 100 people, even if their personal combat strength is excellent, how can they be the opponent of thousands of troops?" ”

Lu Feng raised his head, "Old lady, big housekeeper, the bandits are not more than a hundred, but thousands, and they are not bandits, they are a strong army with strict military training, they have two ninth-level masters, the other eighth-level, seventh-level masters are more." ”

The old man in Tsing Yi gasped, "Two ninth-level masters, how is it possible?" When will such a master be produced in the bandits' den? Isn't the leader Zou Ming? ”

"Zou Ming is just one of them, and it is not Zou Ming who is in charge, but one of the ninth-level masters." Lu Feng Road.

After a moment of distraction, Old Lady Liu had regained her composure, "Is there something wrong with Xingwen?" ”

"General Liu and the other party have a trick and were a little injured, but it is fine, now that General Liu is in the bandits, he has not been abused, and the other party is still very polite to General Liu." Lu Feng Road.

"Tell me more." Old lady Liu leaned back slightly and closed her eyes. Although the opponent still wants to win him over, Mrs. Liu knows that it is impossible for him to defect to Zhang Ning, because those characters who are standing behind him now are not weaker than Zhang Ning in terms of background and strength, if he defects, there will inevitably be endless troubles in the future, and changing the court is also a taboo thing, not to mention the bad reputation, it will make Zhang Ning hold the handle, except for relying on him, he can no longer get rid of it.

This is not what he wants, but at this critical juncture, his son Liu Xingwen has such a big leak, isn't this sending his mouth up to beat someone?

After a cup of tea, Lu Feng was already concise and concise This time Liu Xingwen talked about the bandits, and heard that more than 4,000 people were blocked in such a Jedi like this, and had to surrender to the opponent, the corners of Old Lady Liu's mouth couldn't help twitching, stupid! He shouted silently in his heart, if it wasn't his own son who led the team, such a wretched thing would really be cleaner when he died.

Lu Feng took out the list opened by Qin Feng from his arms, and presented it to the old man in Tsing Yi beside Old Lady Liu with both hands, just glanced at it, and the old man in Tsing Yi changed color, "It's really a lion's big mouth, and it actually needs 100,000 catties of grain and 500,000 taels of silver before it will be put back to the eldest young master!" Listen to ......, old lady."

The old man in Tsing Yi read the prices marked behind the generals one by one.

Lu Feng bowed his head and said, "The leader surnamed Qin said that General Liu is worth this price. ”

Old Lady Liu's closed eyes opened, looked at Lu Feng, and sneered: "This person has a very clear understanding of our background, how can these outsiders know so many details, Lu Feng, there is your credit here, right?" ”

Lu Feng broke out in a cold sweat, and knelt down again with a poppy, "Old lady, I am also thinking about General Liu, if Lu Feng talks nonsense at will and annoys him, I am afraid that General Liu will have an accident!" ”

Old lady Liu waved her hand, "Forget it, I don't blame you, my son, the future head of the Liu family, of course it's worth the price, but Xingwen disappointed me too much." ”

"Old lady, what now?" The old man in Tsing Yi asked.

Old lady Liu squinted her eyes, "Liu Bao, when you go to the front hall, you will say that the old lady is old, and I am happy today, and I have drunk a little more, so I squinted in the back hall, let everyone disperse first." ”

"Yes!" Liu Bao, an old man in Tsing Yi, nodded, turned around and walked out.

"After they all disperse, you send someone to inform the county guard Quan, as well as the four family heads Huang, Chen, Tian, and Fang, come back quietly, don't alarm the others."

"Yes!"

"Where is Zhou Wenlong, send someone to keep an eye on it, by the way, the gifts and beauties originally prepared for him will be sent over immediately." Old lady Liu commanded.

"Old lady, I'm about to tear my face when I see this, is there still this?" Liu Bao hesitated.

Old lady Liu snorted, "Send it over first, what is this?" As long as you can confuse him for a while, it's worth it, and what can make Zhang Ning entrust him with a heavy task is naturally not a waste, if he really turns his face, these things, is it possible that he can still take them away? ”

"Yes, villain understands." Liu Bao hurried away.

Old Lady Liu looked at Lu Feng, "Tell me about the situation of those two ninth-level masters, where did such two people come out of the boundary of Feng County?" There is actually a powerful army, Lu Feng, are you sure that is not a conspiracy of the Qi people? ”

"Old lady, by no means, Kou Qun, the general of the Qi people, was killed by one of the ninth-level masters with one punch." Lu Feng nodded affirmatively and said, "And looking at Liang Da's annoyed and angry appearance, it should have nothing to do with them." ”

"A ninth-level master who uses a knife, and a person who can collapse a cliff with his fist alone, it's hard to say with a knife, there are not many people who can have such power with fist strength alone, but in our Dayue, there are even fewer." Old Lady Liu narrowed her eyes and shook her head slightly.

The sedan chair is speeding on the street, the county guard in the sedan chair is also uneasy in his heart, although the old lady Liu has already expressed his attitude, but the bait thrown by the left minister is too tempting, whether the old lady can withstand the temptation, but it is really difficult to say, in Shayang County in the past few years, he knows the old lady's personality, that is the standard of the supremacy of interests, if it is advantageous, it will be divided, this time, I don't know what the weight of the people behind him is in the old lady's mind?

sighed, put aside those political disputes, as far as I am concerned, I really don't want to leave Shayang County, although because of the existence of Mrs. Liu, I don't have the feeling of being a party at all, but I can complete the task of the boss without worrying, and there are a lot of dividends every year, for people like me who don't have much upward heart in politics, it is indeed a very suitable position, I really want to leave here, return to Yuejing, bow down when I see people, and whisper the days, but I really dare not look alike, And if you offend Zhang Xiang and return to Yuejing, will you be able to have a good life?

"Quanjun Shou!" The sedan suddenly stopped. Quan Yun opened the sedan curtain, and a familiar figure appeared in front of him, "The old lady asks the adults to go back and have important matters to discuss." ”

"Old lady?" Quan Yun exclaimed, he had just left, but he was recalled, something big must have happened.

"Turn the car!" Without thinking about it, he immediately commanded.

"Lord County Shou, your sedan chair is still back to the County Shou Mansion, and the villain has prepared another sedan chair here!" The man outside.

Hearing this, Quan Yun's heart sank and he was happy, so mysterious, it is natural to avoid people's ears and eyes, in Shayang County, there is only one person to avoid now, that is Zhou Wenlong, it seems that the old lady has already made up his mind. (To be continued.) )
