Chapter 357: The Eunuch Roundhouse
Most people in the world want to be in a peaceful and prosperous world, except for a few careerists.
Careerists look forward to turning the clouds and rain in troubled times, becoming heroes in troubled times, or heroes.
But for people like Lu Siyuan, whether it is a troubled or prosperous world, he has a way to survive, or if he needs to choose between life and death, he will choose life at all costs, and this is also the choice of most people.
After Turtle City was controlled by Cai Anyi, Lu Siyuan made his choice as soon as possible, knelt outside the county guard's mansion, and took refuge in Cai Anyi.
And Cai Anyi seems to be very handy with this kind of person, since he is Cao Guan of the Criminal Department, he handed over the Turtle City Prison to him.
Compared with the people detained in the Guicheng Prison, Cai Anyi's more important thing is to recruit the wealthy families of Zhen County and let them submit to Li Huo, if they want to gain a firm foothold in Xiling, without the support of the large and small Xiling wealthy families, it is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, he needs to contact these family patriarchs, use both grace and power, and even talk to them about certain conditions, so that the wealthy family of the family will feel that it will be a profitable thing to follow Li Huo, and both sides will take their own benefits and form a community of interests.
did not deal with Han Yunong immediately, just because Cai Anyi, who was in Turtle City, knew that Han Yunong was a talent, and without Li Huo's order, he did not execute Han Yunong easily, and even thought that if he could recruit Han Yunong to be used by Li Tuo, of course it would be a good thing.
Although I know that the probability is extremely low, there are many impossible things in the world that are possible.
As the old saying goes, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to sit on the country.
It is certainly not an easy task to take full control of Xiling in its hands, and it requires great patience and extremely clever skills.
The capture of Xiling was a matter that had been planned for many years.
Fan Ziqi and Bai Jingzhai, who made this plan, are definitely thoughtful people, not only formulated a complex plan to seize Xiling very early, but also carefully planned and prepared what they would do after controlling Xiling.
Lu Siyuan naturally understood Cai Anyi's thoughts.
If the Duwei Mansion is gone, then Zhen Jun's criminal name is equivalent to being in the hands of the criminal Cao, which is of course a dream for Lu Siyuan.
Lu Siyuan is a native of Zhen County, and he is also one of the families of Zhen County, serving as a criminal Cao Cao official for some years, Cai Anyi accepted Lu Siyuan, and even handed over the Turtle City Prison to him, which is itself a show of favor to the Zhen County family.
He naturally doesn't care whether Lu Siyuan is talented or not, and he doesn't care about his character, as long as Lu Siyuan is a child of the family, as long as the Zhenjun family can see Li Huo's attitude from Lu Siyuan, Cai Anyi's goal has been achieved.
Today is the Lantern Festival, and after dinner with his family, Lu Siyuan left home to go to Lefang to meet his friends on the grounds of official business.
For this reason, Lu Siyuan also specially prepared a good rouge gouache.
For many years, due to the existence of the Duwei Mansion, Xingcao has been almost forgotten in Zhen County, if it weren't for the fact that he was born in a Xiling family and had the support of the Zhen family behind him, Lu Siyuan, the criminal Cao Cao, was no different from the one who watched the gate.
This time, the thorn in the side of the Governor's Mansion was removed, and he was appointed by Cai Anyi, which made Lu Siyuan excited so far, full of energy, even if it was used to trample on Han Yunong and Du Hongsheng in the prison, it was still more than enough, so it was better to put the remaining energy on the singer of Lefang.
Every time he went out and got into the carriage, Lu Caoguan would close his eyes in the carriage to recuperate, at this age, he was very concerned about health preservation, and if he didn't have a good body, he couldn't do anything.
Lu Siyuan, who was closing his eyes in the carriage to recuperate, suddenly felt that the carriage suddenly stopped, and when the carriage stopped, it meant that when he arrived at the side door of the music square, the coachman would lift the curtain, and he would quickly get off the car and enter the music room, and the carriage would find a remote place to stop and wait.
Lu Caoguan is also a cautious person, although he often lingers in the Qinglou of Le Fang, but he is very secretive, and he does not dare to let his family know, even if he arrives at Le Fang, he will enter through the side door and quickly enter the room of Le Fang, so that too many people will not see it.
Therefore, even on the way to Le Fang, he chose a secluded place as much as possible, after all, his rather ostentatious carriage was easily recognized.
Cai Anyi seized Turtle City, although there was no offense against the people, and the people lived as usual, but after all, the incident happened suddenly, and from Chinese New Year's Eve to the seventh day of the first month, the whole seven days of Turtle City was closed, which also made the people afraid of harming the pond fish, when it was not dark, they often closed their own doors, and if they were not forced to do so, they did not go out to the streets at night.
And this situation continues to this day.
It's just that although the carriage stopped today, the coachman didn't lift the curtain for a long time, which made Lu Siyuan feel a little uneasy.
He lifted the curtains of his car, and the carriage stopped on a secluded street.
Lu Siyuan poked his head out, looked back and forth, the empty street made him feel a chill down his spine, and he was about to open his mouth to call the coachman, but the curtain of the car had been lifted, and a figure flashed into the carriage, and before Lu Siyuan could react, the person was already sitting next to Lu Siyuan, and then Lu Caoguan felt a tightness in his waist, looked down, and put a dagger against his waist.
Lu Siyuan broke out in a cold sweat, and saw that the man was wearing a gray cotton robe, wearing a cotton hat, but his mouth and nose were covered by a black scarf, and before he could speak, the man had already ripped off the face towel, and said with a smile: "Lu Caoguan, I haven't seen you for a long time, but it's always good?" ”
Although today is the night of the Lantern Festival, there is no habit of putting lanterns in Guicheng, except for a few streets, the streets and alleys in the city are very deserted after nightfall.
The street was strangely deserted, and there was no one left.
Lu Siyuan's body was shocked, and he lost his voice: "Qin ..... Qin Xiao! ”
"Do you remember?" The dagger in Qin Xiao's hand was sent inside, and he felt Lu Siyuan's whole body tense, so he smiled and said, "I came here today to ask you for a favor, Lord Lu must not refuse." At this moment, he heard a shout from the head of the carriage, and the carriage actually began to move forward, Lu Siyuan was shocked, but he was not stupid, he knew very well in his heart that the driver was definitely not his own coachman, but Qin Xiao's comrade.
Lu Siyuan only felt that the young face in front of him was very familiar, but perhaps because he was frightened, his brain was confused, and he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
"Don't recognize?" Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Introduce yourself, my surname is Qin, Qin Xiao, Xiao, Xiao, I used to be an errand boy in the Jiazi prison, and I had a few encounters with adults, but my status is low, although adults have seen it, they may not remember it." ”
"I have Lord Lao worried." Qin Xiao still smiled and said, "The Zhen family's father and son are dead, of course I can come back." ”
"That's that, that's." Lu Siyuan immediately laughed and said: "The Zhen family's father and son are extremely evil, and they deserve it. Now that the Zhen family has collapsed, this turtle city is no longer owned by the Zhen family, Qin Xiao, you came back just in time, and now Zhen County's criminal name
The other party came prepared, of course Lu Siyuan had already remembered the previous things, remembering that at the beginning of the county guard's mansion, the people who tortured Cao and the people of the Duwei's Mansion almost fought, and the two sides were incompatible.
"Qin Xiao, you.... Don't mess around. Lu Siyuan tried his best to calm down: "When did you come back?" When you did..... Zhen Yujiang, things are getting bigger, the Zhen family is looking for you everywhere, we are still worried about you, you are safe and sound, that's great. ”
Where did Lu Siyuan believe that this was some kind of bullshit elixir, and said with a bitter face: "Qin Xiao, don't lie to me, this ..... This is poison, I will take it, and I will die immediately, please, I will promise whatever you want, please spare my life.....!"
This young man once assassinated Zhen Yujiang in Xiaoyaoju, although he failed to succeed, but Lang Shenshui, a staff member of Zhenhou Mansion, actually died in his hands.
It's all under my control, I'll help you write off your case, and I won't treat you badly when you go to the torture Cao on an errand. ”
"There's no rush to this." Qin Xiao raised his other hand, opened his five fingers, and put a pill in his palm: "My lord, this is the elixir I finally obtained, prolong life, come back this time, there are many places that need you to take care of, this elixir is dedicated to you, come, Zhang Oral Mouth." ”
Lu Siyuan's face instantly turned pale, shocked and angry: "Qin Xiao, ..... you Why are you so vicious? ”
"Don't worry, I have the antidote, as long as you help me do something, I will send the antidote immediately." Qin Xiao said very sincerely: "I will say what I say, and I will never break my word." ”
Lu Siyuan knew that this young man looked harmless to humans and animals, but he was ruthless, and the ruthlessness of the young man under the smile was not a joke.
"If you don't obey, I'll stab you to death immediately." Qin Xiao, who was originally smiling, immediately changed color, his eyes showed murderous intent, Lu Siyuan was helpless, opened his mouth, Qin Xiao threw the pill into his mouth, Lu Siyuan could only swallow it in his stomach under Qin Xiao's cold eyes, Qin Xiao saw this, the smile returned to his face, he actually withdrew the dagger, patted Lu Siyuan's shoulder, and said softly: "My lord, let's just talk straight, you are right, that pill is poison, within three days, if there is no antidote, the toxicity will attack immediately, and the whole body will itch so much that you can only tickle yourself, But as long as you scratch your fingers, the skin will break, and pus will flow out of the wound, if you don't scratch, you will itch to death, but if you scratch it, the whole body will quickly fester, and you will die faster. ”
Han Yunong is now locked up in the prison of the Duwei Mansion, heavily guarded, Qin Xiao's strength is weak, and it is impossible to rescue Han Yunong from prison, so he will hit himself with his idea.
"Your Excellency is wise!" Qin Xiao exclaimed: "I heard that the prison of the Duwei Mansion has been handed over to the adults, and the adults themselves just said that the name of Zhen County's punishment is in charge of you, so I just ask you to do me this little favor, and after the matter is completed, the antidote will be sent immediately." ”
Lu Siyuan gritted his teeth, but his life was already in the hands of the other party, so he was helpless, and said hatefully: "Do you want me to help you rescue Han Yunong?" ”
Not only did he recognize Qin Xiao, but he also knew the relationship between Qin Xiao and Han Yunong, the other party did not kill him immediately, but threatened himself with poison and asked him to do something for him, Lu Siyuan immediately guessed that it was for Han Yunong.
"Nope." Lu Siyuan immediately shook his head: "Although I can enter and exit the prison, it is absolutely impossible to rescue people." Han Yunong was imprisoned in Yizijian, where Cai ..... Cai Anyi's elite soldiers guarded, you also know that in the three prisons of the Governor's Mansion, the B-shaped prison is the most solid, and it is difficult to fly if you are locked inside. After a pause, seeing the smile on Qin Xiao's face, he hurriedly continued: "Han Yunong is a serious offender, if it is easier for others, it is better to bring out Han Yunong, without Cai Anyi's permission, he can't get out an inch." ”
"Really?"
"Even if you kill me now, that's not going to work." Lu Siyuan smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't help, it's that this matter is beyond my ability." If you change things and let me do it, I will do my best, but this one ......! Shook his head: "Qin Xiao, to put it mildly, you are forcing the eunuch to round the house, it is impossible to do it, how can I do it?" ”
