"These kings of Han also thought about it. Although the Chen Ke family is now powerful in Huguang, they are not favored by the government because of their ancestors' relationship. The king of Han promised that as long as they are willing to surrender, they will be restored to their freedom once they ascend the throne in the future, and they will receive high-ranking officials and generous salaries.

It’s nothing to mention, fame and wealth are alluring, and these Chen Ke family should be no exception, right? Besides, I’m just asking you to check this time, if it really doesn’t work, we’ll find another way.”

Lin Hu nodded after hearing this: "Then I'll do my best."

At this time, Zhang Neng took out a book from his arms and handed it to Lin Hu: "This is the "Six Tao" you asked me to borrow last time. Take it back and read it slowly. You must know that there is a golden house in the book.

"

Lin Hu couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself when he asked Zhang Neng to borrow a book, but when he saw the other person winking at him, he knew there was something wrong, so he agreed vaguely, and Lin Hu looked through it carefully when he got home.

After borrowing the "Six Tao" book, he found that there were several gold leaves in the book, which together were worth a lot of money. He then realized that this should be the benefit that the King of Han had given him through Zhang Neng, but it was just inconvenient to publicize it, so he took the

used this method.

Looking at these pieces of gold leaves, Lin Hu had mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that the money was not so easy to get. Once he accepted it, he would be tied to the King of Han's chariot and it would be difficult to escape. However, Lin Hu changed his mind.

When I think about it, it's not that easy to look back now. Opportunities and risks are two sides of the same coin. It all depends on how you grasp them.

In this way, Lin Hu made some arrangements for his family affairs, and then rushed to the Dongting Lake area with a large team of people to investigate the case. According to the prisoners, there was a "Zizaizhuang" on the east bank of Dongting Lake, which was ostensibly the villa of Sun Changfa, a wealthy local businessman.

, is actually an important focus of the Zhengqi Alliance, through which people from all walks of life in Huguang area who are dissatisfied with the imperial court can be contacted, including the Chen Ke family.

Lin Hu was quite emotional when he learned this, and said to himself that the Chen Ke family has really become a hot commodity. With so many people snatching it, Zhang Dayong decided not to alert the snake after the on-site investigation, but wanted to find out the development of the Zhengqi Alliance in Huguang area.

He decided who he wanted to kill and finally caught them all, so he divided his troops into several groups, one of which was to investigate the Chen Ke family.

Lin Hu thought this was an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone and complete the mission assigned by the King of Han, so he took the initiative to ask Zhang Dayong to participate in the investigation of the Chen Ke family.

"Old Lin, why are you so energetic this time?" Zhang Dayong couldn't help but asked curiously at that time.

"Haven't I heard the name of the Chen Ke family for a long time? I want to take this opportunity to see what they are all about. To be honest, I'm just curious." Lin Hu made up a lie casually. Zhang Dayong didn't pay much attention at the time. He had to send someone anyway.

When people go, Lin Hu can take the initiative to ask for help, so the matter is settled. Since Lin Hu is now a hundred households, he has become the leader of this group of people.

When Chen Youliang was defeated and died in the army, some of his family and tribes were scattered in the Huguang area. Over time, they formed a force, the so-called Chen Ke family. Due to historical reasons, the local government was quite wary of this group of people, and they were very

Difficult to follow

It was a serious business, so it gradually gathered in the world. One of its strongholds was Junshan in Dongting Lake. Now if the Chen Ke family climbed up and shouted, they could mobilize thousands of people, so both the Zhengqi Alliance and the King of Han were interested in wooing them.

them.

Lin Hu led the team to investigate around Junshan and initially figured out the current situation. The Zhengqi Alliance has indeed been wooing the Chen Ke family recently, but the Chen Ke family has different opinions on whether to cooperate with the former.

Now the leader of the Chen Ke family is named Ke Zhennan. He is quite resistant to cooperating with the Zhengqi Alliance because he feels that his ancestors and the Ming Dynasty are enemies. The fiercer the fight within your old Zhu family, the better. The Chen Ke family is

I will never interfere, but unfortunately some people in the family have been attracted by the Zhengqi Alliance and have been encouraging the Chen Ke family to cooperate with the Zhengqi Alliance. For this reason, the two factions are now at loggerheads.

Lin Hu analyzed that if the intelligence he collected was correct, the situation would be quite favorable to him. At least the Chen Ke family has not completely swung to the side of the Zhengqi Alliance. The trouble now is how to contact the Chen Ke family.

Just when Lin Hu was in trouble, the system jumped out again: "System mission, capture Xue Wu. The mission reward is five skill points."

Lin Hu was stunned when he saw this. The tasks issued by this system often have no beginning or end, and no prompts are given. He can only explore by himself, but one thing Lin Hu is sure of is that these tasks must have some relationship with him.

Could it be that this time is related to the Chen Ke family?

Thinking of this, Lin Hu immediately dispatched people to search the surrounding area. Not long after, he received news that a suspicious person was found nearby. Lin Hu immediately rushed to the scene after hearing the news.

According to reports from his subordinates, this was a middle-aged man dressed as a fisherman, but he was always absent-minded when fishing and extremely vigilant. He seemed to be always worried about being followed, which attracted the attention of Lin Hu's subordinates.

Lin Hu felt that this person was suspicious when he heard it. However, when he arrived at the scene, his subordinates reported that he had lost him. This made Lin Hu quite frustrated. Wasn't his work in vain?

However, Lin Hu calmed down and thought that the other party should still be nearby, but Junshan said it was not big or small, and it was not that easy to find someone. Suddenly, an idea flashed in Lin Hu's mind. His system did not come with a map.

And personnel positioning? Through this thing, we might be able to find traces of the other party, so Lin Hu quietly opened the system behind others' backs.

Sure enough, he soon discovered two people not far away in the southwest. There should be a forest there. Why would ordinary people hide there? So Lin Hu led the team to check it out with the intention of giving it a try. Sure enough, they were in the forest.

The suspicious "fisherman" was found in the depths, and he was whispering something to a middle-aged man.

According to the subordinate's wishes, he wanted to go forward and arrest the two men, but Lin Hu said not to act too hastily. After the two men finished speaking, the "fisherman" followed the original path towards the lake. After confirming that there was no one else nearby, Lin Hu said

Then he led the team to arrest this "fisherman".

"Who are you? What are you doing?" The "fisherman" was also shocked at the time and wanted to resist, but Lin Hu saw the opportunity and reached out to hold down his shoulders. As a result, the other party felt his internal energy leaking out, and he collapsed to the ground soon after.

Unable to resist.

In this way, Lin Hu and his party captured him back to the stronghold for interrogation. At first, the man was quite tough, insisting that he was just a fisherman. When Lin Hu saw that conventional methods were of no avail, he asked his subordinates to torture him.

, Jin Yiwei's torture methods were too many, and it didn't take long for this person to be unable to bear it any longer, and he had no choice but to confess.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Xue Wu."

Lin Hu perked up after hearing this. It really took no effort to get through the iron shoes and find no place. As the interrogation continued, Lin Hu quickly realized that what he had gained was far more than just completing the system tasks.
