Chapter two hundred and sixty storm
Li Chongjiu and Wen Yanbo rode the city gate and hurried out in a carriage.
It was almost time for Shifang to beat drums. There were no pedestrians on the road. Even if there were some, they were rushing home. Therefore, Li Chongjiu's carriage was running all the way on the street, which was unobstructed.
In one stick of incense, the carriage arrived at the place that was almost approaching the city gate. At this time, not many people left the city gate. Most of them came to the city to do business, and were stingy with the money for one nightclub, and finally rushed home.
When he approached the city gate, Li Chongjiu's carriage was suddenly stopped by several soldiers. The driver on the carriage said furiously: "You don't look at it, don't you know that this is a carriage in the Lu Mansion?"
The soldiers seemed to have not heard it, standing in front of the city gate. At this time, a man said from afar: "I wonder if Brother Xu is in the carriage?"
Li Chongjiu thought bad things at the moment, and the speaker was Dugu Xiude. Li Chongjiu could not avoid it, so he immediately lifted the curtain of the car and bowed his hands and smiled: "Brother Dugu, I'm lucky to know that I'm leaving the city and came here to see me off?"
Dugu Xiude smiled slightly and said, "Brother Xu, I laughed at you. I am just wondering why Brother Xu came and went in a hurry. The city gate is almost closed. It's not too late for you to leave the city now. Why don't you go there and talk about the friendship between landlords when you go there?"
Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Of course there is something important."
Dugu Xiude said immediately and said, "So please forgive me for taking the liberty, what's the important thing?"
Li Chongjiu's face darkened, Wen Yanbo also walked out of the car door and said, "Brother Dugu, I'm so rude. Do you think we are criminals interrogating?"
Dugu Xiude glanced at Li Chongjiu and said, "I dare not, I doubt the identity of this brother Xu. When I heard Brother Xu say, you know the King of Qi, then did you come here under the order of the King of Qi this time?"
Li Chongjiu suddenly remembered that Dugu's family and King Qi have always been in a bad relationship, and Dugu's family has always supported King Yue Yang Tong, who is in the eastern capital. Therefore, Li Chongjiu said that he knew King Qi, but on this occasion, he immediately suspected that Li Chongjiu might have come to Zhuo County to secretly do some errands according to King Qi's intention.
Li Chongjiu cursed secretly that Dugu Xiude was meddling in other people's business and could not fight between him and the King of Qi, but the other party's attitude was to let the left and right take him down.
Li Chongjiu got out of the car immediately and said, "Since Brother Dugu wants to ask me for a question, Mr. Wen will only meet him halfway and let them leave."
Dugu Xiude was in a dilemma for a while. He came to block Li Chongjiu, but in fact, he had never asked Xue Shixiong or the county magistrate for his own personal thoughts. He just mobilized his soldiers in the army, so he could not arrest people openly. Wen Yanbo was very famous, and he would probably have trouble if he caught him. In his eyes, Li Chongjiu was the main master, and he said immediately: "Okay, let the carriage go."
Li Chongjiu gave Wen Yanbo a wink. Wen Yanbo also knew that he could not help with a scholar. He nodded and signaled himself to find a reinforcement, so he followed the coachman out of the city gate.
When Dugu Xiude saw the carriage leaving, he immediately called more than a dozen soldiers from the Left Imperial Guards to come forward and said to Li Chongjiuyan: "Brother Li, please!"
Li Chongjiu looked around and smiled at Dugu Xiude. At this time, he suddenly attacked and punched Dugu Xiude hard in the face.
Lulong County, the capital of Beiping County.
On the campus of the city, hundreds of soldiers wearing crotch cloth were catching each other in pairs and fighting at the corner of the field.
"Little bastards, I've been playing sticks well in recent days."
Jingbian Hou Luo Yi nodded, turned the Hu chair back, and directly straddled the chair. He took a hanging grape from the fruit plate on the side, and did not peel the skin, and placed it beside his mouth to bite it.
Luo Yi looked at it for a while, and then a military general came forward and said, "Report to the Marquis, is there someone from Lu Mansion in Zhuo County?"
Luo Yi's eyes slanted and said, "Which Lu family?"
The general of the army smiled and said, "Zhuo County is the Lu family in Fanyang, and it is worthy of the word Lu Mansion."
"Take it to me."
After a while, one of them came forward and said, "Lu Sheng, the manager of the villain Lu family, met with the king."
Luo Yi glanced at me and said, "What will the Lu family do when they come to me?"
When Lu Sheng saw that Luo Yi's clothes were covered with red and yellow grape juice, and the grape seeds and grape skins were placed all over the floor on his feet. He thought to himself, no wonder the second master said that this person was vulgar, and it was really good at all.
Lu Sheng said immediately: "When you say to the Lord, my master wants to invite the Jingbian Marquis to Zhuo County..."
"Good fun!"
Lu Sheng was suddenly shocked by Luo Yi's slap. It turned out that Luo Yi jumped up, made a circle, and returned to the chair, saying, "Yang Laosan is doing this stick well."
Luo Yi nodded with satisfaction. At this time, he seemed to remember Lu Shenglai and asked, "What did you say just now?"
Lu Sheng silently held back his anger and thought to himself that he was also one of the major managers in the Lu Mansion. Even the sixth and seventh rank officials in Ji County would flatter him. Luo Yi dared to face him in person.
Lu Sheng immediately said the words just now. Luo Yi said angrily: "Duke Lu invites me to Zhuo County to take a guest. Should I come to the door alone, or should I lead my troops there?"
Lu Sheng shook his sleeves and said seriously: "Mr. Lu said that the marquis can of course bring his troops there, and the more they are, the better!"
Luo Yi's eyes flashed when he heard this, he put down his legs crossed, and sat down with a golden sword on his horse and said, "Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Lu Sheng glanced around and Luo Yi said immediately: "These are all confidants of our generals, but it's okay to say it!"
Lu Sheng said everything at the moment, and even listed the conditions. Luo Yi pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "It turns out that Xue Shixiong is leaving. Is Mr. Lu going to invite me to lead troops into Zhuo County and take charge of the overall situation?"
"Well, I don't have the ambition to win the throne anyway. As for other conditions, Mr. Lu can do whatever he wants. I am a rough man and have no idea. But in the first place, since I want me to take the lead, then my subordinates want you to support me. Lu Long, a place where no bird can be shit, will be unable to stay. You Lu's family in Zhuo County have to take care of the food."
"Of course, of course." Lu Sheng was overjoyed, and he didn't expect Luo Yi to be so easy to talk to.
After Lu Sheng left, several trusted generals gathered up and said, "Mr., this is not true. The Lu family is uneasy and wants us brothers to fight for them, but they have to hold the money and food of a county, and the appointment and removal of officials in their hands."
Luo Yi sneered and said, "Do you think I am a fool? What kind of money, grain, and officials? Do you think I don't know the Lu family's calculations? As long as I enter Zhuo County, I can find my brother Qi, and bring 20,000 county soldiers. With the troops in hand, what kind of money, grain, and officials are needed. Let's say, "Do the Lu family dare not give it?"
