Chapter 119: The arrogant Zhao family

Lu Peng stepped forward immediately, and bowed his hand to the city with a smile on his face: "Trouble which little brother in the city, please inform the head of your family, and say that the new lieutenant of Youzhou, Lu Peng and Lu Han ask to see him." ”

There was a leader-like guy on the fort who leaned out, looked at Lu Peng, and then looked behind him, and after confirming that there were just such a few people, he replied lazily: "The new lieutenant of Youzhou?" The official who is a big fart dares to come to our Zhao family to show off his might, is it looking for death? ”

This is really how big the master and how big the slave is, and the emotional people didn't take him Lu Peng in their eyes at all.

Lu Peng suppressed his anger, and in order to win the castle gate, he could only plead in a low voice again: "The last general is here from afar, just to ask Patriarch Zhao for guidance, and also ask this brother to report, after the matter is completed, he will definitely thank him." ”

It may be that this good student's thanks have played a role, and the kid reluctantly said: "Then you wait, I'll go and report back, and it's a matter of whether you see it or not." Then he turned around and muttered as he walked down: "Another new official who came to curry favor with Bajie, this time the old mansion has another income." Then he returned to the old mansion and reported back.

Lu Peng waited outside the fortress to wait for the door to not open, and no one paid attention to the right waiting, seeing that it was getting late, he was ready to go back to join the army, and then find a way, at this time, a person appeared at the head of the fortress, and it turned out to be that Zao Wou-ki, that guy was standing above the fortress gate, and his nostrils were facing the sky to Lu Peng, who was drinking wind and eating soil under the city, and said: "The head of my family is also a bullshit official of yours, can you see it if you want to?" You are new here, your name is Lu Peng, I know about this, put down the gift, you go back, be attentive to our Zhao family in the future, and you will have nothing to do. ”

In Zao Wou-ki's opinion, this is already the biggest face, if you accidentally wait for the Zhao family, you will lose your official position and dismiss in minutes.

As a result, Lu Peng begged bitterly, this Zao Wou-Ki just didn't open the castle gate.

It seems that his plan to open the fort gate cannot be realized, so Lu Peng suddenly turned over and got on his horse, and saw that he was poor, no, it was Tu Poor Dao, took off the big knife, and pointed at Zhao Wouji at the head of the fort and roared: "What an old dog, listen, if you let me enter this fort today, I have to enter, if you don't let me in, I must also enter." ”

As a result, when Zhao Wouji saw it, he thought that Lu Peng was already angry, and laughed at the time: "Yo, the little lieutenant dares to spread wild in front of the Zhao family, he is really bold, and tomorrow, a letter from my Zhao family will immediately let you take you and ask you for the crime." ”

Lu Peng also laughed, and then violently suppressed the laughter, and said with a cold face: "I'm still a quick temper, today's thing is today, don't wait for tomorrow, the rebels in the city listen, you and others colluded with the remnants of the Yellow Turban of the Black Mountain Village, brutalized the local gentry and people, and killed innocents indiscriminately. ”

Just now I thought that Lu Peng was annoyed and angry, but Lu Peng suddenly threw out such a crime, and Zhao Wouji was also stunned at that time. You think of beauty, so he smiled, and said fearlessly: "You have a bloody mouth, and your ability to frame people is not small, and tomorrow, my Zhao family will send someone to Youzhou to ask Liu Yan, when the time comes, it will be up to my Zhao family to kill you and leave a chicken dog, or you will kill me and not leave a chicken dog." ”

Lu Peng said categorically: "No need, at some point, I will be too guarded and ordered me to deal with the traitor with full authority, you just wait to wash your neck and die." Then he didn't talk nonsense with him, turned his horse's head directly, and ran back and forth with a hundred brothers, joining the army hidden in the distance.

He Lu Peng was so suffocating and walking away for a while, and Zao Wou-Ki even decided that Lu Peng was very inward-looking, but he was just saying some scenes to scare people, hmph, is it possible that my Zhao family's hundreds of years of foundation is scared?

Thinking of this, he shouted to the nephew next to him: "This kid is already annoyed and angry, everyone should be angry and take a good look, don't let this bastard spoil things, I will go back to the ancestral house now to report to the patriarch." Then he turned and hurried down to the fort.

Anyway, Lu Peng's shouting of colluding with the Yellow Turban Thieves of the Black Mountain Village and slaughtering the gentry is what his family is doing, and it seems that this kid has taken the handle, if this crime is not small, it is better to report it to the patriarch.

In the middle of the fortress is the ancestral house of the Zhao family, which is wide and outrageous, and it is the flesh and blood of hundreds of people.

In the square in front of the gate, there were more than 100 people, all of whom could not afford to pay the rent and could not afford to be forced into labor, and they were tormented in this cold wind, and there were no screams, no wailing, and no knowledge of whether they were dead or alive.

Zhao Wou-Ki didn't care whether these people lived or died, he went directly to the towering gate, entered at the side gate, and then ran directly to the courtyard of the first housekeeper.

The Zhao family has a big business, the slaves are stewards above, the stewards are stewards above the stewards, and there are housekeepers above the housekeepers, and there are no less than ten lower-level housekeepers like Zao Wou-Ki alone, each in charge of a piece, just like the structure of an official government, so layered on top of each other, the thousands of people and the tenants of the people within a radius of hundreds of miles are in good order.

This Zao Wou-Ki is doing rain outside, in fact, he is just a housekeeper on the third floor, and he usually can't even see the face of the patriarch, but at this time, there is such a big event, so he directly meets the chief butler.

The chief housekeeper Zhao Qianxi was sitting in the warm pavilion of his courtyard, listening to the reports of several stewards on the New Year's affairs, and dealing with them while listening, but he really couldn't handle them, so he put them aside and asked the patriarch to make a decision early tomorrow morning.

Seeing Zao Wou-Ki coming in in with a hurried expression, he nodded at him: "Let's wait on the side first, and I'll talk to you after I've dealt with these things at hand." ”

After Zao Wou-Ki immediately gave the salute in a proper manner, he stood by the door and watched the chief butler continue to distribute, but it was just some annual routines, sacrifices or something, and then there were trivial matters such as banquet and drink scheduling, but there were no big ones.

After dealing with it for a while, the chief butler finally freed his hand, and at this time, Zhao Wouji stepped forward with a heavy face and knelt down to salute, and then told Lu Peng about it.

As a result, the butler said casually: "What a big deal I should be, it's just a little captain shouting in front of the door, in the past hundred years, has this accused us of any crime?" Which one moves us? Then he said nonchalantly: "A small lieutenant, a hundred ignorant idlers, is going to take our Zhao family, isn't this a fool's dream, from this point of view, it is just a form of walking around, bluffing, don't care about him." ”

"But this time, it seems that this Lu Peng really came with too much guarding, and things may not be good."

As a result, the chief butler laughed: "Too guarded? Well, it's just because in the past two years, we have no longer respected the Taishou for the year, which made Liu Yan feel uncomfortable, so we made this stunned young man who had just come to show us and forced us to send him money, but his abacus was in vain The main family in the court has already spread the word, after the New Year, this Liu Yan is going to get out, and the next Taishou will be Liu Yu, so what do we do with him a guy who is about to pass his anger? If you have that money, you might as well feed the dogs."

Zao Wou-Ki nodded clearly, the officialdom is like this, the newly appointed high-ranking friends are full, and the outgoing ones are abandoned like dogs, and it is natural for people to go to tea and cool, this Liu Yan is not going to deal with the Zhao family in the first place, where is the spare money to take care of some outdated things?

Looking at the subordinates who had suddenly come to their senses, the chief housekeeper said again: "This Liu Yan is just about to leave, and he wants to knock on our bamboo pole before leaving office, and get some travel expenses or something, but this person can't get used to it, if everyone is like this, then how can our Zhao family have so much money to fill this dog hole?" You don't need to tell the patriarch about this, if this Lu Peng doesn't leave, you can send someone tomorrow, bring some wine and meat, and give him a step to send them away. ”

Zhao Wuji asked incomprehensibly: "Since Liu Yan is too angry, this little lieutenant doesn't have to pay attention to him." ”

As a result, the big housekeeper laughed: "It's just a captain, it's really not in my eyes, but in recent days, the gentry from all over the country have come to our Zhuangzi to pay New Year's greetings to the patriarch. ”
