At this moment, it is far more than the eldest young master of the Jiangnan Hong family who is exhausted for various reasons.

In Jiangbei, in the Lan family, there is also a person who is now unable to sleep and eat, and can't sleep at night.

At this time, it was already past midnight, but Lan Jing, the young master of the second room of the Lan family, was still sitting in the reception room of the main room of the mansion with red eyes and black circles, anxiously waiting for someone.

At this time, he really wanted to scold his mother. If it were at this time in the past, he would have drunk tea, cleaned his face, and hugged the flower-like maid into the warm quilt that was as warm as spring and not invaded by the cold river wind. But today, because he was waiting for a piece of news, he was not blessed with these daily little blessings.

"These dog minions should all be sent to the miscellaneous room to brush the dung bucket! What time is this, and you haven't come to deliver the letter?! ”

At the same time as he was breaking his thoughts, a hurried footstep from far and near made him sit up from his chair with a "rub".

A man hurried through the corridor, and without waiting for the night's housekeeper to pass the news, he took three steps and two steps into the main hall where Lanjing was.

"Is there a letter from Jiangnan?! What are you still grinding on? Say it! Lan Jing, the only son of the Lan family's second room, was anxious and restless at this time, and kept urging the guys who had arrived in front of him to quickly take out the secret letter hidden on his body. The man was in a hurry, and the more he was busy, the more wrong he became, and his trembling hands were always unable to grasp the thin-looking letter paper.

"Dog kills! Bring! See for yourself! Lan Jing, who was really impatient, snatched the letter paper that the guy had just taken out, and then raised his foot and kicked the servant who had been loyal to the second room of the Lan family for ten years to the ground: "Get out!" There is not enough success, there is more than failure, what to do and what not to eat! ”

He cursed as he unfolded the already crumpled letterhead.

As his gaze moved, Lan Jing's hideous expression gradually turned into surprise, weirdness, confusion and consternation--- and in the end, a smile finally appeared on the face of the first careerist of the Lan family in Jiangbei:

"Hahaha! Hard work pays off, and now a big thing can be done! ”

The young head of the family, who had just taken over all the affairs of the second room from his father, who was not doing his job, excitedly slapped the letter on the table.

"Master! Come on in! Finally some good news! ”

A master dressed as a dog-headed military advisor immediately trotted all the way into the house.

"Congratulations, young master! Congratulations to the young master! With this out, we will be the only one in charge in this Yangguan Military Town in the future! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not only the rewards are huge, but even the risk is not very large, and it is definitely a profitable deal! After a quick glance at the letter, the master surnamed Chang was also smiling, and a series of sycophants were quite beautiful, and Lan Jing was smiling.

"Isn't it! The imperial court not only wants to seize the military power of the Lan family's house, but also lists the Lan family's room as a rebel and sends troops to crusade! It seems that the old man is still kind, and even the last time we had such a big fork, we can easily reveal it! In this way, our work will be better, as long as we wait for the arrival of the imperial court soldiers, we will take the lead in providing news and responding to the army, and then come to the center to blossom, and take Yangguan Town in one fell swoop as a name for refuge in Lian Weng! That's it! “

"The proprietor is wise!" The master also began to congratulate.

Our lovely young master of the second room of the Lan family couldn't have imagined that until now, he didn't know that there was such a number one person as him, and he didn't even know the existence of the second room of the Lan family! The reason why Lian Weng didn't abandon him was just because Lian Weng himself didn't know that the second room of the Lan family was working for him! As for how the news got to him...... Hmph, that's just because the Jiangnan Hong family, as the mediator, thinks that their Lan family's second room still has a little bit of value!

It's not sad to be a dog, but it's sad to be a dog and you don't know it.

......

At about the same time, Fuluzhou in the heart of the river.

The water bandit village was uncharacteristically brightly lit today. The big leaders of seven or eight gangsters gathered in the so-called "Juyi Hall" to discuss the attack on Yangguan Town.

"Big boss, so there's going to be a big move in the south soon?!" A one-eyed dragon with one eye covered with a strip of cloth sat on the third chair on the right side of the hall and asked the owner of the village who was sitting at the top, "It turns out that I just want the brothers to let the wind out, and ask us not to let the Huang family's fleet pass; Now that the rules have changed, we are even asked to take the initiative to find trouble with the Huang family! Not only that, but we also have to serve the shop ship inn under the name of the Huang family! There is indeed a lot of oil and water in this, but it is much more dangerous than setting up a card to collect tolls! After all, the Huang family's industries are all in Yangguan Town, how can he sit idly by and watch with so many soldiers under his Lan family?! ”

"The brothers are not afraid of death, but they can't listen to the above sentence and scatter the brothers below to die!"

"Yes, yes, the big boss, the Yangguan Town Border Army under the general in the north of the town is a strong army in a hundred battles after all, and it is easy to provoke! If it's a water war, the brothers have nothing to say, they must fuck it; But if we insist on going to the dry land and fighting those big-headed soldiers, it will really be over! A man with a long white face and a long beard and the appearance of a military advisor next to him also echoed.

"Hao Laosan, Shi Fifteen! I think you two are used to living a peaceful life, and the ruthlessness that dared to fight when everyone started is gone! ”

At this time, a thin monkey sitting next to the owner of the village was the first to stand up and sing the opposite.

"It is said that wealth and wealth are sought in danger! If things are so easy to do, how can it be our brothers' turn?! It is precisely because the south is going to send a large army over this time, and we want to suppress the border army in this Yangguan town as a rebellion, so that we and the brothers can seize this golden opportunity! Take advantage of this time to make a big deal and go ashore to grab enough! After this village, there will be no such shop! ”

"As soon as the imperial army arrives and the Lanjia in Jiangbei in Yangguan Town falls, the forces of the entire Jiangbei will have to be reshuffled again. This is an opportunity, and we must not let it go easily! ”

"I said old water ghost, are you fucking in the water?!" The first speaker who was called Hao Laosan just now immediately sneered, "Return the imperial army? Or a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Dream your dreams! You can figure it out, in the eyes of the officials, we are bandits, from top to bottom! What kind of good color do you expect the officers and soldiers to give us 'bandits'?! Don't let us do our best when the time comes, and the officials and soldiers will clean us up as rebels, isn't that just making wedding clothes for others?! ”

"You ......"

Seeing that the quarrel was about to turn into an endless scolding war, the owner of the village just raised his hand and signaled everyone to shut up. The leaders who had just been red-faced suddenly fell silent.

"The worries of the third and fifteenth are not unreasonable." The leader of Shuizhai began to draw conclusions, and qualitatively determined the direction and results of the entire meeting, "But this time, we will take an official position before we start!" In the name of office, the brethren can act openly! “

"Boss! Could it be that we have to be recruited?! Someone immediately stood up.

"First, we don't hand over people and we don't disarm, as long as we hold the handle of the knife in our hands, I'm afraid that he will be a bird! Second, what if you are recruited? Is it possible that the brothers in the rank want their children and grandchildren to live in this world with the name of a 'water bandit'?! “

The last powerful warning of the owner of the village unified everyone's opinions at once.
