Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 407, Hesitant to Say It
"No matter who I am killing for, I want to hear the news of Lu Jiuzhang's death as soon as possible." The woman said fiercely, "It is best if I kill him with my own hands!"
"Uncle, I don't have much money, but I know that you are now dominating Shuizhou County, so I spent five hundred thousand taels of gold from my home to support you."
The woman asked her servants to carry hundreds of large boxes.
Then, she sent all the servants away.
"Well, I will try my best."
Mr. Li took a look at the woman in the audience. He didn't think anything of it before, but now he thinks she is quite pretty.
"Come to the back with me!"
Li Zheng said.
After that, he walked straight to the back, which was a bedroom that used to be a place for the county governor to rest.
But it is not considered a formal residence.
If you have a lot of work, you can take a short rest here to recover your strength.
But today, it became a place where he bullied the woman in front of him.
…
A series of disgusting sounds came from the back room, as well as the woman's struggle.
Many people in the front yard heard it, but turned a deaf ear.
Once a person controls the so-called power, his true nature will be exposed.
It's just a difference between morning and evening.
Master Xu speculated that Li Zheng did not have the destiny of a real dragon, let alone pose a threat to the Zhou Dynasty. He was actually right.
Compared with Pei Yunzhang, Li Zheng is not even a little bit worse.
The reason why the ruins sect behind them valued Li Zheng was just because the Li family was a prominent family in Shuizhou County and had great power, so that they could easily control Shuizhou County.
After a while, a boy rushed in hurriedly.
Then I saw two people on the bed flirting with each other!
The boy was busy making a report, but was scolded by Li Cheng.
Then, Li Zheng came out in disheveled clothes and glared at the boy, "How can you be such a frivolous person?"
"Report to Li Zhi... no, report to Lord Li, Jiangshui County has fallen!"
The boy said in a panic.
"What?"
Mr. Li collapsed directly to the ground, "How could it happen? When did the news come?"
"About an hour ago."
The boy replied.
"snort!"
Li Zhengzheng slapped the boy away with one palm, and he fell heavily against the wall. His internal organs were shattered and he lost his life.
"When you step into my house from now on, no matter how urgent the situation is, remember to knock on the door. You won't be able to see at all!"
After saying that, Li Zong took a look inside the room.
The woman had already dressed and walked out, "Uncle, I'm going back."
The woman's mood was a little low, but Mr. Li would not let her leave so easily. "Wait here, I have to handle some official business and will come back to you in the evening."
"I……"
The woman wanted to leave.
"Stay here, don't go anywhere, think about your son."
After threatening him, Li Zheng left.
…
Half a day later, the ruins sect, together with Li Cheng, retreated with an army of 100,000.
Naturally, Shuizhou County couldn't wait any longer. Their stragglers couldn't compete with the 200,000 demon soldiers.
Several nearby counties have no natural protection.
But there must be a place to stay!
Then, Li Zheng set his sights on Yiyun County!
Wherever Lu Jiuzhang has led his team to evacuate to, there are only 40,000 to 50,000 of them!
With this in mind, a hundred thousand troops marched towards Yiyun County in a mighty manner.
As for Lu Jiuzhang who arrived in Yiyun County, he met the governor of Yiyun County immediately.
Everywhere was escaping from the control of the Zhou Dynasty. Lu Jiuzhang didn't know whether the governor of Yiyun County was attracted by the ruins sect.
"Master Lu!"
The governor of Yiyun County is named Lou Gaoyang. He was a warrior in the past and was stationed at Beiyu Pass.
After seeing Lu Jiuzhang, the county guard was polite and stepped forward to cup his hands.
"Governor Lou!"
Lu Jiuzhang glanced at Lou Gaoyang, and then said slowly, "Retreating to Yiyun County is really a last resort. I have received a secret order from the new emperor to temporarily take charge of Yiyun County starting today."
"When the battle is over, Yiyun County will return to the hands of Governor Lou!"
"I hope Governor Lou will be considerate!"
Governor Lou was a little displeased and deprived himself of his power as soon as he came up. "Since Mr. Lu said it was a secret order from the new emperor, is there anything like a handwriting? You still want me to take a look!"
"This matter is top secret. The new emperor has a request and cannot be shown to outsiders." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Master Lu, this is a bit unreasonable!" Sheriff Lou's face darkened, "You asked me to give up my position as Sheriff, and I have no problem with it, but I want to see the new emperor's secret order to see if it is
The new emperor’s intention, but you clearly refused!”
"Master Lu, I will treat you with courtesy, but I hope you will not stir up trouble!"
Sheriff Lou said coldly.
"Some words are meaningless to say. If you don't trust me, I won't trust you either." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Under the premise that safety cannot be ensured, I can only take these measures."
"This is also what the old general meant!"
"Old General Xuan Wuyun?" Sheriff Lou asked.
"good!"
Lu Jiuzhang nodded.
"How can we prove it?" Sheriff Lou asked again.
"I can't prove it, but it was the old general who pointed me to Yiyun County." Lu Jiuzhang said, "The old general is probably gone now!"
"But he is an old general after all!"
Lu Jiuzhang looked in the direction of Jiangshui County.
I'm afraid even the old general Xuan Wuyun didn't expect that Jiangshui County would collapse so quickly, falling apart in an instant!
"I received a souvenir from the old general." Sheriff Lou said, "He said he would send someone to Yiyun County, and he hoped that I could fully cooperate!"
"but……"
Sheriff Lou was about to speak but stopped.
"You're talking about the old general who gave up the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers to save his grandson, right?" Lu Jiuzhang understood the worry in his heart, "an old general is still an old general!"
"He dedicated his whole life, but in the end he gave up his life for his own selfishness!"
"The most taboo thing for people is to stand on high places all the time..." |
The old general always stood at a high point. When he fell to the bottom, everyone would support him under the banner of morality to suppress him.
"I'm a little uncomfortable with what the old general did." Sheriff Lou said with emotion, "But this is the only time in his life that he has done something wrong. Don't worry."
A good person does a hundred good things. When he does a bad thing, he will be criticized by everyone.
A bad person does a hundred bad things, but when he does a good thing once, he will be admired by everyone.
Put down the butcher's knife and you can become a Buddha immediately!
Why the hell?
"Don't worry, I will still listen to the old general's orders." Sheriff Lou said, "For the sake of the old general, I will temporarily give up control of Yiyun County."
"In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I also need to send people to monitor around the house." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Don't go too far!"
Sheriff Lou shouted.
"It is a last resort. Most of the county guards have contacted the ruins sect, and I believe someone has also contacted you." Lu Jiuzhang said, "If you don't agree, tens of thousands of soldiers from the Iron Blood Battalion will take coercive measures to force you.
