Chapter 362 The sword goes sideways
After Lu Ren entered the government, he went straight to the Taicang Pavilion, and as soon as he entered the Cabinet, he shouted: "Where is the Taicang Order, Taicang Cheng?" ”
Two men left the table and ran over. They had already heard about Lu Ren being stopped in front of the yamen and couldn't enter, and now seeing Lu Ren yelling so loudly, they didn't dare to provoke Lu Ren to scold themselves. However, Lu Rendao didn't say much, and took two rolls of bamboo slips on the account shelf. After pretending to look at it a few times, Lu Ren asked Taicang Ling and Cheng: "When did the grain and rice from the counties near Runan be sent to Xudu?" How long has it been since you entered the warehouse? ”
"Xudu, which was delivered around October last year, has been in the warehouse for more than half a year."
Lu Ren then asked, "Do you know where to put it?" ”
"This ......"
Yiling Yicheng was immediately stunned. At that time, the grain was sent to the warehouse and thrown to the place where it should be thrown, and Xu Du was the military and political center, and the money and grain rents from many surrounding counties, counties, and townships were concentrated.
Lu Ren frowned, and took off a few more rolls of bamboo slips to inspect them. Although Taicang Ling and Cheng looked at each other at a loss, Fan Tong knew some of Lu Ren's temperament because he was more familiar with Lu Ren, and immediately stepped forward and asked respectfully: "I don't know why Lu Servant asked this question?" ”
Lu Ren was waiting for this sentence, and immediately threw the bamboo slip on the table, hugged his arms and frowned at Fan Daodao: "You and I have been friends for a long time, and I know that my Lu clan and the Mi clan have many caravans to trade everywhere for profit, so the news is very well-informed. Before, I was patrolling the land of Xunan. Someone came to report that I had been poisoned by food in several counties near Runan, and when digging wells to get water, some strange stones were excavated that were extremely dark but could burn when caught in fire.
"As far as I can tell, it's likely that the leylines in that area have changed. Some of the poison of gold and soil was born in the ground, and it was absorbed by the seedlings of the previous year, and when it grew into grain, it became a poisonous grain and rice. If Xu Du's warehouse is mixed with a lot of such grain and rice......"
didn't continue to speak, Lu Ren just looked at Taicang Ling and Cheng. Looking at Taicang Ling and Cheng again, they have already been bluffed by Lu Ren so that Zhou is trembling up and down. Poisoned rice is mixed in Taicang! If something happened if this is not investigated, these two will not be as simple as losing their positions and abandoning their posts, but they will definitely move their heads! Fan Tong on the side suddenly realized: "No wonder Lu Servant shot came to Dasi Nong's Mansion in a hurry, it turned out to be for such a big event!" ”
Looking at the reaction of the three people. Although Lu Ren's face was still stiff, he was snickering in his heart, laughing at these people who didn't have the slightest doubt about his words...... But seriously. These lies made up by Lu Ren, with Lu Ren's reputation and status today, who would ordinary people doubt it?
Don't understand? So let's take a look at how Zhang Jiao did it first:
"But if he is sick, the horn makes him bow down and bow down. After giving the charm water to drink. Horns hold the nine-section scepter practice, secretly recite the mantra and pray for it......"
It is unknown whether Zhang Jiao is really good at medicine, but it is certain that Zhang Jiao is very good at acting. First make a full show, and then if the patient's condition improves, it is said that the rule of law is good, and if the patient does not improve, it is said that the patient's "faith is not sincere", but in this way, Zhang Jiao can bluff hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels.
Let's go back and look at Lu Ren. Zhang Jiao's tricks are actually very "virtual", and the people have woken up after almost playing...... Although it seems that there is a question mark here, what Lu Ren has been doing all this time is real. People can see and touch things that can be taken out and eaten. In fact, as early as when Lu Ren promoted the correct planting techniques of rice and other crops, and achieved certain success. The folk secretly rumored that Lu Ren was the descendant of the legendary Shennong clan, or the descendant of Houji.
At that time, Lu Ren secretly felt funny when he heard it, because the so-called "Houji" was not a god, but an official position similar to the minister of agriculture in the tribal alliance of Yao, Shun, and Yu eras. According to the information, Hou Ji's real name should be abandoned. However, because Houji had a wealth of knowledge and experience in crop planting, he drove the tribes that were still inclined to fish and hunt for a living to gradually embark on the road of agricultural civilization, and as a result, he was rumored to be the second only god to Shennong.
What's next? Lu Ren is playing with magic sticks in Xiapi, and the "Seven Star Forbidden Spell" is something that tens of thousands of troops have witnessed, and if Lu Ren doesn't say it, then it will be at least one or two hundred years later, and gunpowder will be officially exposed on the stage of history...... The trick has to be black and yellow powder with real destructive power.
Further down, when Lu Ren was in Xuzhou, he detected the signs of the plague, and controlled and treated it in time, saving the lives of more than N people. And at this time, he was already the "immortal master" in the mouth of the people. Based on all of the above, Lu Ren is now fooling people about the changes in the leylines in the Runan area, which has caused some toxicity in the grain harvested, and no one will really doubt his words.
Besides, Lu Ren also took into account that his lies had to be "corroborated" so that he would not get into trouble for himself, after all, where can the words "poisoned rice may be mixed in Taicang" can be said nonsense? If you don't have some "corroboration", that is, it is a fallacy to confuse the public and demagoguery, this crime is not as simple as cutting off the head, and if you don't do it, you have to "wipe out the three tribes".
So Lu Ren was hooked up with "a strange stone that is extremely black but can burn when it meets fire"...... Well, what Lu Ren is talking about is actually raw coal. Anyway, Henan Province's raw coal output ranks second in the country in modern times, and Lu Ren discovered a salt mine when he called back to Xuchang not long ago, so there are many shallow coal mines in Henan that have not been discovered in this era? In short, if the raw coal is dug out, Lu Ren will be fine, if he doesn't dig it out, Lu Ren will have a big deal to go to Pingdingshan in the southwest of Xuchang. You must know that Pingdingshan is known as the "Central Plains Coal Bunker", and Lu Ren still doesn't believe that he will not be able to dig it if he takes someone to dig it. Cao Cao's "Faqiu" technique in the army, Lu Ren still remembers it vividly.
Don't go far, stop here. I saw that Taicang Ling and Cheng were trembling on their bodies, their teeth were fighting, and they stammered to ask Lu Ren how to deal with this matter. Lu Ren turned around the room a few times with a straight face and pretended to think, thinking that he couldn't delay it for too long. When it was almost there, Lu Ren shook his sleeves violently, and pretended to be resolute: "That's the only way to do it for now...... Even if Cao Gong blames me, I have to do it! Taicang Order! ”
"The lower official is here!"
"You rush to Taicang immediately. The warehouse is temporarily closed, and any troops who come to ask for grain and grass will not be issued for the time being! ”
"No!!" Hurry the fire went to one.
"Taicang Cheng, you immediately go and mobilize all the servants who can be mobilized, and then quickly take them to Taicang to wait."
"Huh!?" This is not as simple as the one just now: "Lu Servant Shooting, the subordinate official position is low, where can I transfer how many servants?" ”
“……”
Lu Ren was speechless for a moment, and immediately took the pen, ink, bamboo slips, and wrote the book. After writing it in an uproar, he handed it to Taicang Cheng and said: "This is my warrant to govern Su Duwei, you leave the mansion immediately, and take the two Lu disciples who are with me to go to my mansion along the main road." If you meet someone who comes from my house, you will directly seal it and then order the transfer! ”
"No!!" I went to another one in a hurry.
There is also a Fan Tong, and Lu Ren didn't let him go: "Fan Tong, you are the Yanshi Order." Go to all the silver needles and silver hairpins on the market immediately. Anyway, as long as it can be used to test the toxicity of silverware, collect it all, and then take it to Taicang......"
Before he finished speaking, Fan Tong's legs softened and fell to the ground: "Lu, Lu servant, please, please forgive the official for speaking bluntly, if, if you really do this, Xu Xu Xu ...... Wouldn't there be panic and chaos in the city of Xudu!? ”
"Yes! I don't think about it in a hurry! ”
said so, but Lu Ren said in his heart that it would be good to mess up, and there would be a little mess. Cao Cao, who was still hunting, had to rush back immediately. But thinking about it like this, Lu Ren really didn't dare to make too much of a fuss. Otherwise, I guarantee that I won't be able to eat and walk around.
After thinking about it again, Lu Ren could only sigh: "Actually, there is no need to be in such a hurry, I am panicking." In this way, you are familiar with the market street in Xudu City, where there are some medical centers and pharmacies, you should also know very well, so let's borrow the silver needles in these medical centers and pharmacies first...... Oh yes, it's better to have the healer brought in as well, so that their own people can take care of the silver needles that have been seconded, and we won't have to worry a lot about it afterwards. The same can be said of the silversmiths in the jewelry shop. ”
Fan Tong hurriedly nodded his head: "Hey, hey, it's much easier to do this!" The next official is gone! "This one also ran away, and if you don't run, there may be more trouble.
After finishing this, Lu Ren breathed a long sigh of relief, and secretly said in his heart: "That's it...... Huang Shu, go and stop you directly, I'm sure I can't stop you, after all, you have Lao Cao's official military order in your hand. But if you want to lead the troops to the battle, you have to get grain and grass from Taicang, and if you want to receive grain and grass, I can delay it. ”
Boom, Fan Tong and the three of them left the house first, and Lu Ren himself hurriedly packed up his application and prepared to rush to Taicang. After all, "there may be poisoned rice mixed in Taicang", and he, the chief executive of the Dasi Nong Mansion in the actual sense at this point, has to go to take samples and inspect them in person. Besides, Lu Ren can't stay in Dasi Nong's Mansion at this time, otherwise if Liu Bei forcibly takes food no matter how much, as Liu Beizuo's general, and Cao Cao's official military order, he can't stop it with Taicang orders and Cheng Na alone. In a word, you have to play a full set of acting, otherwise it won't be quite like it.
However, before Lu Ren could pack up a few things that he should have brought, Jian Yong, who was sent by Liu Bei, had already asked to see him outside the door. So Lu Ren quickly cleaned up his mood and rehearsed how to perform this play in his heart, and then ordered someone to invite Jian Yong into the palace. After a few polite words, when Jian Yong mentioned that he had come to the Dasi Nong Mansion on Liu Bei's order to receive the grain and grass for the expedition, Lu Ren immediately opened his mouth wide, pretended to be shocked and exclaimed, "What, what!?" At this time, you have to get food and grass to go on the expedition!? ”
Jian Yong's heart tightened, and he asked Lu Ren carefully, "Why is Lu Servant panicking?" ”
Lu Ren was not stupid enough to say the "poisoned rice" right away, because that was too fake, so he deliberately supported it for a long time before he said: "Really, it's really not a coincidence, something happened in Taicang, and I just sent Taicang Ling and Cheng to Taicang ......" (to be continued......
PS: (Yesterday Saturday, the bottle buddy seemed to have won thousands of dollars by buying balls, and after work, he pulled a large group of people to drink, and the bottle couldn't run away.) Later, I drank high, and I really didn't have the state to update. Fortunately, the bottle has some points in his hand, and he got a leave note here at the starting point, otherwise the whole attendance will be wooden...... )
