When he got up the next day, Zhu Rui made a special trip to the new house, which was completely completed. The house made of local stone materials is very novel and chic, sturdy and does not show the old and new, and it is still like this after a hundred years.

I looked at the general street again, compared the map in my hand, glanced at Master Wang who followed next to me, and said, "What does Master think?" Master Wang stroked his beard three and a half times, and admired: "Wang Jun is really a great talent, and the streets in the future will follow this example, which will be horizontal and vertical, neat and clean, and there will be no chaos." As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Zhu Rui: "Don't you think it's a pity to bind Wang Jun in the backyard?" "Wang Jun is not only a great talent, but all of them add up to make him, a well-known so-called think tank figure in the country, embarrassed.

Zhu Rui smiled bitterly: "Although this king shouldn't marry him back, he himself is also very resistant to officialdom, and he is too lazy to deal with all kinds of people." In fact, Lin Zimo's original words were: "The officialdom is too dark, moths account for most of it, and the kid is very lazy, and he doesn't want to go with the flow, so he has to stay away." "It's not good to say this to Master Wang!

Master Wang sighed, after getting along with Wang Jun for a few months, he can also see his lazy nature, and his jealous and hateful nature, although he is dedicated to the sake of the people, but it is indeed not suitable for officialdom, it's a pity.

As the population grew, the new city wall project was also inevitable, and Zhu Rui decided to build a new city wall together. Look at the small half-man-high city wall, where bandits or enemy troops come, only those who are tied up are divided.

Fortunately, there was a steady stream of people looking for work, and after a few months, the dividends belonging to the county government were enough to support, and the new city wall was in full swing.

Maybe Zhu Rui is a crow's mouth, more than half a month later, when the city wall was built to the height of more than one person, in the middle of the night, three watches, Yanshan County entered the robbers.

It had passed the third watch, and people were sleeping soundly, when suddenly the gong sounded, accompanied by a thick voice: "The robbers are coming—the robbers are coming—"

Zhu Rui and Lin Zimo got up together, and without caring about getting dressed, Zhu Rui ran to the yard and fired a signal flare. In the past, Yanshan County was very poor and could not afford to equip the township soldiers, and even the neighboring counties, only Fucheng had soldiers. Now the only way to do this is to notify the convoys stationed nearby.

The shouting of killing from afar shook the sky, as the highest magistrate of Yanshan County, Zhu Rui couldn't stay at home. The two children were also brought over, Zhu Hui's eyes were bright, and Zhu Ze's eyes were sleepy. divided the fifty guards he usually carried with him into thirty at home to protect his lover and children, and despite Lin Zimo's voice, he resolutely rushed out with twenty guards.

Lin Zimo hugged the two children, and his heart was in turmoil. Zhu Rui's voice was heard from afar: "Cheng Po's family is dead, for the sake of the family behind you, the bloody man rushed out with me, and there is a heavy reward for driving away the robbers in this county." The voice gradually faded away until he couldn't hear clearly, but Lin Zimo was a little relieved, after all, he had experience in leading troops, he still had the ability to unite people, and there were a large number of laborers stationed in and outside the city, as long as he could incite this part of the people, there was still a lot of hope.

was worried, and remembered a terrible scream outside the door: "Master help, let us go in and take refuge." Lin Zimo was startled, and Zhu Ze, who was confused in his arms, woke up in fright. An Le came in and reported: "Zheng Xiancheng's family next to him is outside the door, Wang Jun, look-"

Lin Zimo said: "Are there any robbers outside?" An Le said: "I haven't come here yet." "It's not as bad as it is? He thought that the family had encountered robbers, but after all, more than a dozen lives: "Let them in, but be sure to observe the surroundings, don't let the robbers in." "Although the courtyard wall is not high, there are so many people guarding against it, and I think we can avoid this catastrophe.

As soon as there was a knock at the courtyard door, several people walked in. The first was an old woman of forty or fifty years old, with a white and chubby round face, very rich, followed by Zheng Xiancheng's second wife Liu, trembling all over, holding a four or five-year-old boy in her hand, and finally Li, followed by two quiet boys, one eleven or twelve years old, and one □□ years old.

This Zheng County Cheng has been prosperous since then, and was about to come forward to say hello, when a few people who came in saw Lin Zimo for a moment, Lin Zimo touched his face, careless, there was no cover on his face, and he did not bring a curtain hat, and he was seen by these people for what he was. However, in extraordinary times, Zhu Rui also has to play a role in stabilizing people's hearts.

Said gently: "Old lady and young lady, please sit down, how is Zheng Xiancheng?" Several people sat down in surprise, after all, the Li family had been dealing with Lin Zimo for a long time, so they recognized it at a glance, and replied: "So that the son will know that the husband has just gone out with the master, and said that he will fight the enemy with the master together." Lin Zimo nodded, after all, this person was not confused to the end, and he was still competent for his own job, otherwise, he would have let Zhu Rui kick it a long time ago.

Looking at Lin Zimo, who was very luxurious, Liu's eyes were full of jealousy, he had long forgotten the danger outside, and said angrily: "No wonder the son can be by the side of the master, it turns out to be this relationship!" "It looks like a big thing. The Li family is very angry, no matter what the son is, it is the master's housework, how can this stupid woman not figure out the stakes in the middle? It's full of nonsense here.

Interrupted at the moment: "I don't know if the master and the husband are in danger?" It's really worrying. The chubby old woman was not happy: "If you can't speak, don't speak, curse my son to die, what good do you have?" Li was angry, the ignorant old woman, Liu didn't say anything about offending her son, but lost her temper with her.

Lin Zimo turned his head lightly, talked to the two children, and ignored these people. Liu still doesn't know the level of his eyebrows: "I don't know in what capacity the son followed the master?" Don't bring the serious wife who is a fan of the master? The people of the palace glared at her angrily, their king was given the marriage to the prince by the emperor, and the officials in the capital did not say anything excessive to each other, but they were disgraced by this stupid woman.

Li remembered enough, although she didn't have much knowledge, she had already seen that Zhu Rui and Lin Zimo were not ordinary people, but this woman who was spoiled by her husband was endless. Zheng Xiancheng's old lady also looked at it curiously, and she didn't think that her daughter-in-law's words were taboo.

Lin Zimo was furious: "Madame, let's wait for a while, don't worry about what you shouldn't worry about, save yourself from causing trouble to Lord Zheng." Liu exploded: "What's the trouble?" With you, a rabbit-like person? I think too much of myself, don't you know that the master is not playing with you? Kicked you sooner or later? "Why can this man be luckier than her, look at the food in this house, which she has never seen.

Lin Zimo trembled angrily, and An Le, who was standing next to him, waved his hand: "Tie up this unknown thing, throw it in the corner, and wait for the past." "A mere concubine, who actually said bad things about the king, if she was in the capital, she would have been killed for the crime of colluding with the royal family.

The two guards who came up, regardless of Liu's struggle and the obstruction of the old lady of Zheng County, also hated her very much, and tied her up like a wolf with four horses upside down and threw her to the corner of the house. Liu screamed like a pig, and was gagged with a rag by one of the guards before he became honest. And the old woman was so frightened that she hugged the frightened child who did not dare to cry tightly, and did not dare to speak.

Li also looked at it with relief, she had suffered a basket of anger from this concubine over the years, because she had her husband's favor, but she couldn't return it, and she had to swallow her anger in the Zheng family for the sake of her two children growing up.

was in chaos, the sound of knives and guns fighting each other in the distance, and the sound of shouting came, Lin Zimo hurriedly said: "Put out all the fires, everyone must not make a sound, and be on strict alert." "The lights of the night are far away, and I am afraid that they will be discovered by the robbers.

All the lights were extinguished, and people did not dare to come out, sticking out their ears to listen to the movement outside. The sound of swords striking each other gradually approached, and someone shouted: "In front is the backyard of the county government, the big guy hurried in, the family and silver of the dog official are inside, rush!" ”

There was a sound of banging on the door in the left and right yards, and there was also a banging sound outside the door. All the guards lit torches and threw them outside the wall, and without speaking, they were trained to climb up to the top of the wall, draw their bows and arrows, and begin to attack the robbers outside. From time to time, there were exclamations from the middle sword outside the wall, and someone shouted: "Hurry up and attack here, it must be the family of the county official, fight quickly, rob the beauty and the silver and run away quickly." ”

The people in the room were nervous, and by the light of the torches, they saw stray arrows coming in from time to time. Lin Zimo hurriedly took the two children and hid in a windowless place and leaned down. Li followed suit, calmly pushed the three children and her mother-in-law into a corner and fell down.

Mrs. Chen, who was hiding in the back yard, and a few maids also ran over, and after a while, under the desperate attack outside, they had already seen casualties, and from time to time someone fell, and someone substituted for him. Lin Zimo pushed the two children to Mrs. Chen, and instructed, "Dad, look at the injured uncle, you should follow Aunt Chen here, don't go out." Zhu Hui looked excited, and whispered: "Dad, don't worry, I will be optimistic about my brother, if it doesn't work, you can call me, and I will fight the bad guys." As he spoke, his little hand held Zhu Ze's hand tightly, and Zhu Ze looked ignorant, playing so lively, but he dozed off in the arms of the trembling maid from time to time, and didn't pay attention to what was in front of him at all.

Lin Zimo smiled bitterly, he was still worried about what the children were afraid of, but he didn't know that he was more powerful than himself. Leaned down and rushed out, and ordered An Le and the others, who were looking at him in horror, to "Hurry up and carry the injured person into the house and bandage it briefly." "If you can't do anything else, try to save the wounded and do your best, so that no one with hope loses their lives.

Fortunately, because Zhu Rui and they were old enough to carry out their tasks, the medicine for injuries in the house has been continuous. The simple bandaging was not difficult for a few people, the whole white cloth was taken out of the storehouse, bandaged the wounded, as the wounded soldiers increased, the guards of the outside defense could not take care of it, many robbers arrived at the gate, and the heavy impact sound crashed into the hearts of the people.
