"Look for someone to find a way?"

Xu Boyuan didn't quite understand Lu Dafu's meaning and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Liu Rugan, the governor of Yuanling County."

Lu Dafu didn't keep it a secret and directly said a name that surprised Xu Boyuan, "Although he doesn't care about the matter now, he must know how to deploy the weapons in the city."

"At this stage, if you want to get the armour map, I think the best way is to start with him."

"Liu Rugan?"

Xu Boyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this name. Although he knew that Liu Rugan was excluded by Hu Ming and basically didn't take much care of Yining City, he was still the nominal highest official in Yining City after all, and he was the highest official among these rebels.

Now Mo Zizai is fighting against Yining City, and as Mo Zizai's inner support, isn't it a bit inappropriate to contact this nominal thief leader?

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu."

As if he saw Xu Boyuan's concerns, Lu Dafu said, "I have dealt with Liu Rugan several times. According to my observation of him, he should have nothing to do with rebels like Hu Ming."

"Before, in order to test this person, I specially sent someone to the county magistrate's office to check the situation, but found that he was actually being monitored by Hu Ming. I think this is enough to prove that he and Hu Ming are not the same person."

After hearing what Lu Dafu said, Xu Boyuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He wanted to get the armored defense map in the city, but there were only three ways he could think of.

The first one is to start with Hu Ming. He must be clear about the distribution situation in the city. If he could catch him, he would probably be able to ask him out.

But this approach is obviously unrealistic. If he can be caught, then what else should I need for defense? It would be better to stab him to death with one knife.

The second way is to get the armed defense from the families in charge of the armed forces. However, on the one hand, the people in the aristocratic families have very strict protections, and on the other hand, it is easy to alert the snake. If Hu Ming notices their intentions or traces, even if he gets the armed defense map, it will be useless, because people can change the armed defense location at any time.

As for this last way, it is to find the county magistrate Liu Rugan.

Of course, in addition to these three methods, there is another stupid method, which is to investigate bit by bit and find out the specific location of these weapons. However, this method is too time-consuming and obviously unrealistic.

Therefore, Xu Boyuan thought for a long time and finally found that the most reliable plan was to find Liu Rugan.

"Can you be sure that Liu Rugan is not a traitor?"

This matter is of great importance, so Xu Boyuan asked Lu Dafu again with great caution.

"cannot."

Looking at Xu Boyuan's serious expression, Lu Dafu shook his head helplessly, "According to my observation, I am about 60% sure that he is not the same as those thieves, but no matter how specific it is, I can't guarantee it."

"Sixty or seventy percent sure..."

Xu Boyuan pondered for a moment, and finally clenched his right fist and slammed hard on his left palm, "Such a great grasp is enough!"

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for this matter. I hope you can get it done as soon as possible about sending messages to the prince."

"clear."

Lu Dafu nodded slightly. Seeing that Xu Boyuan had no intention of asking for help from contact with Liu Ru, he understood that Xu Boyuan did not want to interfere by himself, so he didn't say much at the moment. He just bowed and said, "If there is nothing else, I will say goodbye first."

"Okay, see you again, Mr. Lu."

Seeing Lu Dafu disappearing outside the yard, Xu Boyuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After being puzzled for so many days, he suddenly got the answer, which made him feel relieved.

However, Lu Dafu has no problem with his performance for the time being, but Xu Boyuan has never been the one who puts eggs in a basket.

After Lu Dafu walked for a while, he took his people away from the current courtyard and changed to a new place to settle down. At the same time, he also sent people again to find a way to leave the city at night and contact Mo Zizai.

As for Liu Rugan, after Lu Dafu mentioned this name, he already had a brief plan in his mind. After he changed his new site, reviewed the plan several times, and made up for the site list, he immediately sent someone to implement it.

...

In Liu Rugan's mansion, Liu Rugan, who would be monitored whenever he went out, could also go out. He simply stayed at home to feed the fish, leaving the disputes outside and ignored him.

"Master, there is a civilian outside looking for you. He said his name is Lao Wutou."

Although most of the people in the county magistrate's office betrayed Liu Rugan, there were some loyal old servants in his own home. Although these people had no power or strength, it was okay to help Liu Rugan do some chores. Therefore, except that he could not manage the affairs, Liu Rugan did not suffer much influence in his life.

"Old Wu?"

Hearing the report from the concierge, Liu Rugan, who was sitting on the veranda, was sprinkling fish food, couldn't help but pause, "What are he here to do?"

Liu Rugan muttered in a low voice, unable to understand the purpose of Old Wu's visit. Through his observations over the past few days, he could be sure that Old Wu and others must have problems, but what did he come to do to him?

"Are you here to assassinate yourself?"

Thinking of this possibility, Liu Rugan's fat body couldn't help but tremble. It's logical that no one in the whole city knew that he couldn't care about anything now. Even if he assassinated, he would assassinate Hu Ming instead of coming to find him.

"Does I think this soft persimmon is easy to bully?"

Although Liu Rugan felt that this speculation was a bit unreliable, he still asked cautiously for his own safety: "How many of them did he come?"

"Go back to Master, he's the only one."

The concierge looked at Liu Rugan and felt that his reaction was a little strange, but he did not ask too much, but instead answered Liu Rugan's question respectfully.

"Oh, it's just one person, that's fine."

When Liu Rugan heard that it was a person, he felt relieved, "Then what, let him come in."

"Oh, by the way."

After saying that, letting Lao Wu come in, Liu Rugan added: "Let the guard Zhao and the others bring two teams of people here to stay here to protect my safety."

"Um?"

When the doorman heard Liu Rugan's words, his expression became very strange. The old man Wu was just an ordinary old man. Seeing such a man, the master had to bring more than twenty guards to protect him, this was a bit too fussy.

But who told Liu Rugan to be the master, so he didn't say much, and the honest Liu Rugan's order was passed on.

After seeing the two teams of guards around him, Liu Rugan suddenly felt much safer. In this way, even if Old Wu came to assassinate him, he didn't have to worry too much.

But he was relieved, and Old Wu was very worried.

Originally, Xu Boyuan told him that Liu Rugan was not a rebel, and he would not have any problems this time, and he also promised him a lot of money and did not ask him to make it clear. Only then did he muster up the courage to do this.

As a result, as soon as others arrived at Liu Rugan's mansion, they found that Liu Rugan had summoned two teams of guards with great fanfare, which scared his legs soft because he thought he had been exposed, and Liu Rugan sent someone to arrest him. If it weren't for seeing that these people were not coming to him, he would have collapsed on the ground long ago.

"Then...that, I've seen...that's the county magistrate."

Old Wu was in a very nervous mood now. While saluting Liu Rugan, he secretly glanced at the guards behind Liu Rugan, for fear that they would suddenly catch themselves.

Looking at Old Wu's trembling appearance, Liu Rugan felt a little funny, but asked him to remove the guards, but there was no door. What if the old boy pretended to be a good man and waited for his guards to leave, and the old boy came up and killed him and gave him a knife to the death, how unfair he would be.

So although he couldn't bear it, Liu Rugan decided to pretend that he didn't see it and said lightly: "Old Wu, is there anything you have to do when you come to find me?"

"Oh, there is... something, something."

Hearing Liu Rugan speak, Old Wu woke up and took his eyes off the guards, whispering: "That's right, sir, today an adult asked us to go to the North City Wall to maintain an armour, but that sir didn't explain the specific place clearly."

"The little one is afraid that the adult will turn around and punish him, so he has to come to the county magistrate with shamelessness. He hopes that the county magistrate can be kind and tell the little one where the ordnance in the north city is."

Old Wu had practiced this passage many times before, so when he said this, he immediately found a feeling and threw his fear aside. He said it so much that he burst into tears, and the guards next to him felt a little sympathetic.

"Orthal location?"

Unlike those guards, Liu Rugan obviously thought more. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head to look at Old Wu, and said in a angrily manner: "I came here to ask me about such a small matter, what are you doing when you are the one? Also, are you afraid of him punishing me, aren't you afraid of punishment?"

Liu Rugan, who looked a little angry, waved to the guard behind him and said, "You all go down first."

"Here."

The guards responded without any surprise, because they were angry like their master, and they probably wanted to blackmail the money. It was obviously inappropriate for them to be present.

What puzzled them was that the rich people who were blackmailing on weekdays were the rich, but how did they change their temper today? Even ordinary people who were not ashamed of oil and water were not spared. Could it be that because they had no power in their hands, they had no moral bottom line?

A group of guards complained about Liu Rugan in their hearts and then came out of the garden one after another.

After they left, Liu Rugan put away the angry expression on his face and said, "Does the person behind you want an armed defense map?"

"Um?"

When Old Wu heard Liu Rugan's words, he couldn't help but be shocked. He had many hints and didn't say them. As for the fact that there was someone behind him, he didn't even intend to hint. Why did Liu Rugan suddenly know?

"Big... Sir, what do you mean by what you said? I can't understand it."

"I don't want to circle with you."

Looking at the old Wu who was pretending to be stupid, he said straight to the point: "I can give you the defense map. Even if you have other requirements, as long as I can do it, I can agree to everything."

"But you tell you what's behind it, I have a request, and he must promise me!"

"this……"

Old Wu looked at Liu Rugan's confident tone and knew that he could not fool him, so he had to say vaguely: "What are the requirements of sir?"

"The Qianlang River cannot be diverted, and the Yining City cannot be flooded."

When he said this, Liu Rugan stood up and his flesh was shaking constantly. "There are more than 370,000 people in Yining City. If the water floods Yining City, even if these people are not drowned, they will all starve to death next year!"

"He can't bear this sin, nor can the court bear it!!!"

When Liu Rugan said this, his expression was very excited. A bunch of small eyes that were usually very peaceful were as if he wanted to choose someone to eat them. "Tell the person behind you that if Mo Zizai dared to let the water flood you, I, Liu Rugan, would not let him go even if I became a ghost!!!"

A few days ago, when he knew that Mo Zizai was going to let the Qianlang River divert the water flood Yining City, Liu Rugan, who was watching the show, was instantly furious. Although he guessed that Mo Zizai might have planned to use this method to force Hu Ming to lead his troops out for a decisive battle, what if Mo Zizai really dared to do it?

With Mo Zizai's reputation, if there is no hope of attacking, who can guarantee that he will not flood Yining City in the end?

Therefore, Liu Rugan, who was not going to interfere, had actually been unable to sit still for a long time. So, before Old Wu came this time, he agreed happily before he even asked.

"Don't worry, magistrate."
