The man arched his hand: "In Xia Shidu, because I saw that the girl was robbed by bandits, I secretly followed and waited for an opportunity to come to the rescue." ”

After a while, he saw that Su Liuying was silent, and his heart became a little anxious, and suddenly his heart moved:

"Don't worry, girl, I'll follow and monitor all the way, and the girl is still complete, otherwise I will fight for this life, and I won't sit idly by."

"Really?" Su Liuying said eagerly.

"If the girl doesn't believe me, you can check it yourself."

Su Liuying was originally a smart person, and when he saw that his clothes were complete, he was a little suspicious, but he never believed that the thieves would let him go, he was only deceiving himself, and now when he heard Shi Du say so, he believed five points in his heart.

She crept over to a bush and examined it, finally relieving herself.

Walking out of the grass, she saw that Shi Du was facing away from her, and she had a good impression of him in her heart, and said with a smile: "Thank you Shi Zhuang for saving her!" ”

Shi Du turned around and saw her smiling and beautiful, blooming like a hundred flowers, and was stunned.

Su Liuying's face was slightly red, and she lowered her eyes and said, "Please also ask the strong man to send me to the county seat." ”

"I would like to hear from the girl." Shi Du hurriedly said.

The two walked for a while, and Shi Du suddenly put his ears on the ground, and his face changed greatly: "The thieves are coming!" ”

"What then?" Su Liuying's face was pale.

"The bandits must be chasing down the mountain, we can only find a place to hide on the mountain for a while, and when the bandits give up, we will not be too late to leave."

"That's all there is to it." Su Liuying sighed.

……

After two more days, after Lu Yuan finished dealing with the morning politics every day, he returned to the back house and called Lu Yutong to go to the secret passage.

How to crack down on bandits in the past few days has made him extremely annoyed, but only Qin Youyu's bamboo house can make him feel peaceful and alleviate some of the depression in his heart.

Qin Youyu's brother and sister have extremely peculiar temperaments, they go to lunch every day, Qin Youyu never drives him away, and never doubts his identity as a county commander, but every time he talks to him, he doesn't talk to him more than three sentences, and she will go to read a book after eating, Lu Yuan had to say goodbye and leave.

As for his younger brother, he hadn't seen him once until now, and he had only heard Qin Youyu mention it, saying that he was consciously proficient in the art of training soldiers and was learning the art of practicing horses.

Lu Yuan had already memorized the way up the mountain, and when he walked to the bamboo house, he was not polite, and went in directly, but in addition to Qin Youyu, there was an old man in the house this time.

Could it be her elders? Lu Yuan said nervously: "Miss Qin, I'm here." ”

"Okay, please wait." Qin Youyu said with a smile, and didn't introduce the old man to him, so he went to cook.

"Isn't this the prefectural magistrate?" The old man looked at Lu Yuan's face for a long time, and suddenly shouted.

"Old man, do you know me?"

"Old decay Li Dashan, I saw the adults when they revised the tea policy a few days ago." The old man said that he was going to bow down like Lu Yuan.

"The old man doesn't have to be polite." Lu Yuan hurriedly helped him up.

"Uncle Li, this county order is indeed a good official as you said, and the poor have to come to my house every day to eat!" Qin Youyu laughed.

Lu Yuan's face turned red when she said it.

"Whisper, don't be rude to adults!" Li Dashan scolded angrily, and then shouted: "Qin Quan, come over and see the county commander." ”

The man in the grass shed answered and walked out, and Lu Yuan finally saw his true face in Lushan.

I saw that he was wearing short sleeves, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his bearing was extraordinary, but his expression looked lazy, and after approaching, Lu Yuan immediately smelled a smell of horse manure.

Li Dashan also smelled it, and shouted: "Go wash the smell on your body, do you want to smoke the county magistrate?" ”

"The prefectural magistrate doesn't mind, does he?" Qin Quan smiled slightly.

"Not bad." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

Qin Youyu saw that Uncle Li respected Lu Yuan so much, and she was more interested in him, she had only heard Uncle Li say that the county government had a new county order, and he was a good official, but she had not heard of Lu Yuan's deeds.

Li Dashan was very strict with the Qin brothers and sisters, but when he turned his head to Lu Yuan, he was full of smiles and said, "The county commander really didn't lie to us, he came to see us so soon." ”

"I've been too busy lately to see everyone, so I happened to be here today." Lu Yuan was a little ashamed.

"It's good that you're here, sir, if there's anything that can be used for us, just say it, you're welcome!"

Lu Yuan nodded slightly and asked the old man:

"Uncle Li, I heard that your life has been inconvenient due to the recent closure of shops, so the villagers are a little dissatisfied, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

"Which bastard made this rumor? My lord, you are fighting with those profiteers for us, everyone knows that they only hate not to help adults, who dares to be disgruntled, the old man split him! Li Dashan was furious.

Lu Yuan breathed a big sigh of relief in his heart, he had been worried about this matter.

"Uncle Li, what are you talking about?" Qin Quan asked.

In the past few days, Li Dashan's favorite thing to talk about with the villagers is the county magistrate's trial of those corrupt officials, corrupt officials, and powerful bullies.

"It's only been a few days since the county magistrate came to the county office, so he dismissed a group of dog officials such as Ding Peeling and Tian Yu, interrogated the Chen family, returned the Xu family's justice, abolished the evil government of the tea industry, and fought viciously with the four major profiteers-" The words were quite exaggerated and amplified.

The first time he heard about his deeds from others, Lu Yuan was also a little complacent in his heart, but when he thought of the current bandits, he felt a little ashamed of his trust in the people.

I couldn't help but think in my heart, what kind of face are you talking about at this time, why don't you go to Miss Li for help!

"Sure enough, it's a good official, I'm going to cook, I can't let our good official go hungry." Qin Youyu seemed to like to laugh at Lu Yuan.

"Go ahead, scramble all the eggs I just brought." Li Dashan said.

Qin Youyu answered, and went to the kitchen.

"Now that those giant businessmen have joined forces to strike the market, what is the response of Lord Lu?" Qin Quan pondered for a long time and asked.

"I'm going to exterminate the eleven villages and clear a trade route, as long as the trade route is unblocked, there will naturally be new merchants."

"Your Excellency is right, except for Ding Peel, these robbers are the most hateful, you must destroy them." Li Dashan echoed.

"I saw that there was a sad look between Lord Lu's eyebrows, and I thought it was because the bandits were in trouble." Qin Quan said with a smile.

"Not bad." Lu Yuan said slowly.

Uncle Li was taken aback, he always thought that as long as the county commander turned his hand, these bandits would be wiped out, and hurriedly asked:

"My lord, are you short of manpower, there are still some young people in our village, and Qin Quan also knows some martial arts, I asked him to help you."

Lu Yuan looked at Qin Quan when he heard this.

"Uncle Li, I can listen to you for anything else, this is not good, my father asked me to go to the north to serve Brother Zhao after I was twenty-three years old, and it is only one year now." Qin Quan smiled and refused.

"Your father has been dead for more than ten years, have you forgotten who brought up your brother and sister? Don't talk back, you all go to work for Master Lu for me. Li Dashan said angrily.

"Old man, I don't have a shortage of manpower there, you don't have to worry, I will definitely be able to exterminate these bandits." Lu Yuan didn't want to let the two fall out of harmony because of himself, so he spoke out to mediate.

"Well, I don't think those thieves are your opponents." Li Dashan believed it and said with a smile.

Qin Quan bowed his head and was silent, and after a long time, Qin Youyu came in with food, and today in addition to fried bamboo shoots, there was an extra plate of scrambled eggs.

When the three of them were eating, Lu Yuan took the opportunity to ask, "Miss Qin, can you tell me about your brothers and sisters?" ”

He had long been curious about the siblings.

Seeing Uncle Li glaring at him, Qin Youyu said with a smile: "Uncle Li, why are you staring at me, Lord Lu is very good, I will naturally tell him." ”

"Lord Lu, listen well, my father's name is Qin Zhen, he was originally a general of Houliang, Zhu Youzhen usurped the throne and became close to the villain, which led to the destruction of the country, so my father went incognito and hid everywhere, and then he was taken in by Zhao Hongyin, the assassin of Zhuozhou, and listened to it under him.

It was also in those years that he met my mother and gave birth to my sister and brother. Later, his father's identity was exposed, and Zhao Hongyin couldn't protect him, so he had to flee south and live in seclusion here, and later he died of illness, but fortunately Uncle Li took care of me, and my sister and brother were able to become adults. ”

Sure enough, after the gate, Lu Yuan asked again: "I heard Qin Quan say Brother Zhao just now, I don't know who it is?" ”

"It's Zhao Kuangyin, the son of Zhao Hongyin, my father was his teacher, and before he died, he asked his younger brother to serve him in the future."
