In the mansion of the county government, Lu Yuan's chopsticks flew over, and a plate of dishes was eaten by him.

Lu Yutong doesn't know if he is influenced by Qin Youyu, he likes to make fried meat with bamboo shoots, although the taste is worse than Qin Youyu's, but it is better to have meat, Lu Yuan will eat the whole dish every time.

After eating a full stomach, Lu Yutong grabbed the dishes and chopsticks and went to wash the dishes, Lu Yuan walked to the courtyard and saw that Hou Kaishan had returned home, so he went into the house and asked him about human trafficking.

Hou Kaishan poured a cup of tea for Lu Yuan and sighed: "My lord, it seems that my poor daughter was sold to Hangzhou." ”

"Don't worry, since I promised you, when everything in the county is stable, I will accompany you to Hangzhou to find your daughter!"

"The subordinates can go and find it by themselves, how dare they bother the adults to go in person?"

"I have promised it, but how can I not believe it." Lu Yuan smiled.

Hou Kaishan couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

At the time of the unitary, the drum of the lower government sounded on time.

In the fast room, Zhan Yuan put away the list of people to deal with tomorrow and left the class.

Because Jin Lanzhi likes to investigate cases, and sometimes chases cases to neighboring counties, the time of the office is not fixed, so Zhanyuan goes home alone.

In the courtyard of the lobby, the officials of the lower government walked together in twos and threes, some took the opportunity to contact feelings, and some made an appointment to go to dinner or listen to the play together.

Although these people are the most powerful people in the county, they are dressed very plainly, and this is only because the county order likes to wear cloth clothes on weekdays, so no one dares to wear it too well, so as not to leave a bad impression in the heart of the county order.

On the way out of the ya, some officials would say hello to him when they saw Zhanyuan.

When he arrived outside the door, he saw two sedan chairs waiting outside the ya, and Zhan Yuan knew that it was Li Yuan and Li Wencheng's sedan chair without looking.

Nowadays, only the two of them still insist on taking a sedan chair in the entire county office, and the rest of the people who take the sedan chair are now on foot.

At this moment, a voice came from behind him: "Zhan Zhutou, please stay." ”

Zhan Yuan looked back and saw that the person who spoke out was Master Yuan.

"Lord Yuan." Zhan Yuan arched his hand.

Recently, Master Yuan often talked to him, and his attitude became more and more affectionate every time, and he began to keep a distance from Li Wencheng and Li Yuan, and Zhanyuan was also polite to him.

"What an adult is not a big person, I regard Brother Zhan as a friend, why should Brother Zhan see me, just call me Brother Yuan." Master Yuan said with a smile.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

"That's right." Yuan Chi said with a smile: "By the way, I made an appointment with Chongde and Brother Zheng today to taste poetry and drink in Xiangchun Pavilion, do you want to come with Brother Zhan?" ”

Xiangchun Pavilion is the favorite high-end restaurant of literati and ink writers in the county, and Zhan Yuan knows that the value in Yuan Chi's mouth is his wife and nephew Shen Liang, and the other person is Zheng Bin, a great talent.

He didn't know anything about dance and ink, if he sat with these people and tasted poetry, it would not be awkward to death, and hurriedly excused himself: "I still have something at home, so I won't go, thank you Brother Yuan for the invitation." ”

"Then it's not reluctant." Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, clapped his hands and said, "By the way, my eldest brother recently got a boxing book, I wonder if Brother Zhan is interested in watching it?" ”

His eldest brother's name is Yuan Bin, he doesn't like to read, he only likes to dance and play with swords, and Yuan's father was very disappointed in him, so he invested all his political capital in Yuan Chi, and made him the master in his thirties.

"Thank you Brother Yuan for that." Zhanyuan has nothing else to do, but loves to practice martial arts.

"It's nothing, I'll bring the score tomorrow." Seeing that the fire was almost over, he smiled and asked:

"I heard that Lord Lu is back today, but I don't know where he has been in the past few days?"

"My lord has gone to the countryside."

Yuan Chi's heart was relieved, and he said with a smile: "In this case, there is still an appointment below, so I will leave first." ”

"Please."

Walking along Duanyang Street towards the dart bureau, Zhan Yuan found that the number of street vendors was gradually increasing, and there were no more bullies disturbing the market, and a sense of accomplishment arose in his heart.

It didn't take long for him to return to the dart board, and he and his mother had now moved to live in the west wing of the back house, so after entering the door, they went straight to the back house.

He was taken aback when he just passed by the martial arts arena, it turned out that the senior brother Jin Yuanwu had come back for some time, and was playing with guns in the martial arts arena, Jin Muxing, Jin Lanzhi and the Luo family's father and son were all watching intently, and there were many disciples outside the dart game standing behind him.

He stopped and watched for a long time, until Jin Yuanwu finished practicing, and then stepped forward.

Jin Lanzhi glanced at him at a glance, walked up and hugged his arm, and said with a smile: "Do you know what the eldest brother has been doing these days?" ”

"Isn't it to investigate the case?" Zhan Yuan exclaimed.

Jin Lanzhi smiled mysteriously, and was about to speak, when Jin Mu walked over and said with a smile: "Yuan'er, your senior brother has something important to tell us, because you are not there, so we are waiting for you in the martial arts arena." ”

"Zhanyuan, your face is very big now, so many people have to wait for you alone!" The second senior brother Wang Quan said coldly, he was resentful of him because he was robbed of his love by Zhanyuan.

"Let my father-in-law and all the senior brothers wait for a long time, Zhanyuan is afraid."

Jin Lanzhi glared at Wang Quan and snorted, "Zhanyuan, don't pay attention to him." ”

Jin Muxing has always been very fond of Wang Quan, and he promised to promise him Jin Lanzhi before, and he felt very guilty about him, so although he often spoke coldly to Zhanyuan, it was not easy to scold him.

"Let's go, let's talk in the lobby."

When he arrived at the lobby, Jin Muxing thought that what his son was going to say must be extraordinary, and the less people knew, the better, and said to everyone behind him, "You all go down!" ”

In the lobby, only Luo Yong's father and son, the three members of the Jin family, Zhan Yuan, the second senior brother Wang Quan and the third senior brother Li Sheng were left.

As soon as everyone sat down, Jin Lanzhi said impatiently: "Big brother, this is a good thing, tell everyone about it!" ”

"It's okay, anyway, in a day or two, this news will be transmitted back to the city, in fact, I didn't go out this time to investigate the case, but the county magistrate gave me a secret mission."

"What task?" Zhan Yuan was shocked.

"Lord Lu ordered me and Brother Hou to secretly participate in the operation to suppress bandits, and now the four major cottages in the east of She County and the four major water villages in the southeast have all been wiped out!"

This sentence was like an earth-shattering shock, and most of the people in the hall were stunned when they heard it, only Jin Lanzhi had a smile on his face, obviously knowing about it.

"What about Wuqi Village?" Rayong stood up suddenly.

"Xisanzhai has not been eradicated."

Rayong was deeply disappointed and sat back down.

"The soldiers under Lord Lu are by no means comparable to ordinary officers and soldiers, and the commanders are not idle people, I believe that it will not be long before the three villages in the west will not escape destruction." It was Rotai who spoke up.

"How do you know? Could it be that you are also participating in this operation? Rayong asked expectantly.

"How can I have such good luck as Brother Yuan Wu." Luo Tai shook his head, as soon as he got home, he took his father to Changwei Dart Bureau without telling him anything.

"Brother Luo, those soldiers and horses were borrowed by Lord Lu." Jin Yuanwu said.

"Are the two Qin generals too?" Rotai was taken aback.

"That's not it, they're all under Lord Lu."

"Yuan Wu, tell me what the hell is going on? Where did Lord Lu borrow the soldiers and horses? Jin Muxing saw the two of them talking to themselves, leaving everyone else aside, and said with some displeasure.

Jin Yuanwu nodded and said slowly:

"Lord Lu used to be a staff member in Ning Guohou's Mansion, and these soldiers and horses were borrowed from Ning Guojun.

He only borrowed 500 people, and let Mr. Qin Quan and Qin Yu Gongzi lead 250 people respectively. I just followed Mr. Qin Quan's side, although I have only been with him for more than ten days, he is the person I admire the most in my life.

Relying on only two hundred and fifty people, he wiped out the four major cottages in one fell swoop, and only a dozen people were killed or wounded. His elder brother Qin Yu Gongzi also exterminated Sishui Village, and I heard that there were only very low casualties. ”

Jin Muxing's mouth was so wide that he could almost swallow an egg.

After a long time, he sighed: "It's because I underestimated the officers and soldiers too much before, but I didn't expect such a fierce Eleven Village to be broken by them so easily." ”

"Dad, you're wrong, those sergeants didn't have anything special when they first came, and after Mr. Qin's training, they became stronger, but even so, if they fight head-on, the casualties will definitely be heavy, and they can only wipe out a village.

The real power is the commander of the army, and the reason why Mr. Qin was able to defeat the enemy was all due to strategy. Jin Yuanwu said with a radiant expression.

Luo Tai said in his heart, those two people were only about the same age as himself, but they could lead troops to exterminate the bandits, and he felt a little depressed in his heart.
