Li Zhong was uneasy, he didn't know if Lu Fei had seen him kill Steward Hu, he didn't know if he was so smooth that he opened his mouth and asked, "My lord, what else did you see?" ”

Lu Fei was more direct, "Are you talking about you killing Steward Hu?" ”

Li Zhong stood up suddenly, forgetting that his head hit the stone yesterday, and immediately felt dizzy, he held on to the table and said, "Then you ...... adult"

Lu Fei pressed his hand, "General Li is not in a hurry, if you kill it, you will kill it, you are eliminating harm for the people, although it happened in this county, but the official has already closed the case, this matter has nothing to do with the general, you can recuperate with peace of mind"

Li Zhong didn't believe his ears a little, "Why is this so, my lord?" ”

Lu Fei smiled and squinted at him, "If I say that I left a good general for the country, do you believe it?" ”

Li Zhong shook his head, "I don't believe it"

Lu Fei smiled, "It's refreshing enough, you don't have to think about it, I didn't save you for any reason, whether you believe it or not"

In fact, Lu Fei saved him out of unbearability, and he innocently let him die in order to kill Steward Hu, and he really didn't have any other thoughts. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Zhong was half-convinced, and slowly moved the table out of the door, "Okay, don't say it, don't ask in the next place, save your life, I will report it in the future, and I will leave."

"Does the general still have a place to go?" Lu Fei didn't get up, as if he knew that Li Zhong couldn't get out of this gate.

"I don't know" Li Zhong shook his head, what could he do if he survived, he was already dead in General Zhang's place, and soon the news of his death in battle would appear on General Zhang's death list, he was just a living person who had died.

"In that case, then you can stay here, you have to heal your injuries," Lu Fei pointed to the chair beside him and motioned for Li Zhong to sit back.

"Thank you for your kindness, I know the open and secret battle between you and General Zhang, if you let his people know that you saved me, I'm afraid it will affect you, so it's better to leave" Li Zhong is still an honest man.

Lu Feifei laughed and waved his hand, "Between me and him, I don't have to worry about having too many debts, I don't have to bite if I have more lice, and I don't care about more of this, so let's find you a place to live outside the city, and when you are healed, you can stay and go."

Li Zhong saw that he said so sincerely, and sighed, "It's okay, it's up to the adult."

Lu Fei hurriedly stood up and patted Li Zhong's arm, "Okay, it's just that tomorrow I'm going to go and see if there are any results from what I did a few days ago, and I'll send you there casually."

Lu Fei thought of a place, the fishing village Jiang family.

In Zhang Razi's barracks, the generals of each department stood tall with their waists straight, their bodies covered with mighty battle armor, and stood in the tent of the Chinese army like sculptures.

Zhang Rake was also dressed in a military uniform, with a long sword hanging from his waist, one hand pressed on the hilt of the sword, and walked slowly in front of the generals.

Suddenly, Zhang rake, turned around, walked quickly to the back of the handsome case, slapped the table, and said sharply, "Have you heard the tasks of each department clearly?" ”

"Clear," everyone said in unison.

"Okay, the biography will order, tonight the third watch cooks, the fifth watch departed, be sure to take down the mountain before dawn, remember, no one is left"

"Yes!"

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the barracks were full of busy figures, all the officers and men were actively preparing for the evening action, the horses had already been fed enough forage, and the arrows and armaments were piled up outside the tents, just waiting for night to fall, and a massacre was about to begin.

Zhang Rake secretly called a subordinate who was deeply trusted by him into the big tent, and told him to bring dozens of brothers, change into bandit clothes, and ambush in advance on the road leading to the mountain bandits' nest and calf ridge in the county seat, and when the news of the army's attack on the mountain reached Lu Fei's ears, he would inevitably rush over, and then kill him on the way, and blame the bandits, so that God would not know it.

Zhang Rake Zi thought that the bandits in the mountains were affected by Zhao'an, and their precautions must be relaxed, as long as they raided at night, they could be pacified in one fell swoop, and then carried the head of the bandit leader to report to the imperial court, and then carried Lu Fei's head to the county master to say goodbye, telling him that Lu Fei was dead, and no one would investigate the bribery anymore.

Zhang Rake thought that such an arrangement was seamless, and just when he had arranged everything and was just waiting for the hour, a fast horse dressed in the golden remnant sun quickly came to the gate of the barracks.

When Zhang Razi learned that the person who came was the general of King Ning, he was shocked, hurriedly put down what he was doing, and followed the person out of the barracks and came to a mountain recess a few miles away from the barracks.

On a large bluestone in the recess, King Ning clasped his hands around his chest, closed his eyes and pondered, and there were more than ten armored warriors standing around, all with gloomy eyes, giving people a chilling feeling, and they were definitely all ruthless characters.

Zhang Rake turned over and dismounted five or six zhang away from King Ning, walked quickly to King Ning, tidied up his clothes and armor, knelt on the ground respectfully, and said loudly, "The last general will see King Ning Chitose"

King Ning slowly opened his eyes and said softly, "General Zhang, don't come unharmed, please get up."

Zhang Rake stood up, with a pious face, and arched his hand, "Xie Chitose is worried, and the last general is grateful."

King Ning bowed slightly, "This king was ordered to worship his ancestors in Fengyang, and he took the road to see the county lord, and I heard that General Zhang was using troops here, so he came to meet."

Zhang rake said, "The end will be honored"

As soon as the two met, they were both polite and polite, this is King Ning's consistent style, and he is always polite to people who have some ability, and he has the style of Meng Weijun of the Warring States Period.

Suddenly, King Ning's words changed, and he said, "General Zhang, how has this king treated you all these years?" ”

Zhang Rake didn't know what he meant, and said uneasily, "Appreciated by Chitose, the end will have today, and Chitose will have the grace to carry and recreate at the end."

King Ning nodded, "Okay, you are a person who leads soldiers, you should know the reason why raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while."

Zhang Razi immediately understood, King Ning had something important to hand over to him, and he hurriedly bowed his hand and said sincerely, "In the end, only Chitose will be the head of the horse in this life, but with Chitose at will, he will go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not give up."

King Ning laughed, paused, "Well, okay, this king didn't misread you, that's the case, when this king passed through Hukou County, Jiujiang Prefecture a few days ago, I heard that there is a hundred years of Jiang Wang clan in the county, and the whole family lives in Jiangjiazhuang, and it is rumored that there is a divine object in the village, which is a sacred object for Jiang Shangzhu Zhoukai's 800-year-old foundation in the past, called the Heavenly God Whip, and it is rumored that this thing can call the wind and rain, and sprinkle beans into soldiers, General Zhang, have you heard of it?" ”

Zhang Razi had really heard of this kind of rumor, but he didn't believe that there was such a god, and even whether Jiang Shang really had something to do was debatable.

"The last general has heard of it, and it is rumored that this is the treasure of Jiangjiazhuang, and it is never shown to outsiders."

King Ning laughed, stroked his beard and said, "Yes, this king has also been famous for a long time, I wanted to take this opportunity to go and watch it, but I didn't expect to eat a closed door, the old patriarch of the Jiang clan not only let this king take a look, but also told this king that the myth is purely false, there is no such thing in the village, this king is really boring."

Zhang Razi said with a smile, "If you can get your appreciation from Chitose, it can be regarded as giving Jiang Jiazhuang enough face, there must be no such thing in the world."

"Hmm!" King Ning shook his head and waved his hand, "No, there is no wind and no waves, this kind of rumor has been prosperous for a hundred years, this king is sure that this thing is in the village, if you don't see it in this life, you will be unwilling to do it."

Zhang Rake lowered his head and thought about it carefully, in order to guess the thoughts of King Ning of Seven or Eight Points, "It's not easy for Chitose to want that, it's inconvenient to send a few to get it directly, why do you need the same old patriarch theory"

King Ning glanced at him, nodded and said, "Well, this king has this intention, but as a royal clan member and an example of the people, how can I forcibly take the things of the small people, then I don't laugh at the world."

Zhang Rake swallowed his saliva and said in a panic, "What does that Chitose mean?" ”

King Ning laughed and patted Zhang Rake's shoulder, "This king accidentally found out if the Jiang family really had this thing, the ancestor of the Jiang family used to be a strategist under Chen Youliang's tent, and gave him advice against my Taizu Heavenly Soldiers, which is really hateful, and now he has repeatedly resisted this king, and he really has a great rebellious heart."

Zhang Razi arched his hand and said, "Since it is such an anti-thief, why don't Chitose Bingtang Imperial Court give him a raid to destroy the clan to prevent future troubles"

King Ning nodded, "Well, the general's actions are indeed a thunderbolt means, but this king's departure from the domain this time is only to worship the ancestors, the emperor has a clear decree, and he is not allowed to meddle in local affairs along the way. ”

Zhang Razi thought that King Ning was just coveting the heirloom of the Jiang family, but he didn't expect him to let himself come forward, and said with a difficult face for a while, "Chitose, the last general's three thousand strength are proud to be able to serve you, but the last general is subordinate to Anqing Mansion, and the Jiang family is in Jiujiang Mansion, which is ...... If it spreads, it's not easy to explain."

King Ning smiled, "What's so difficult about this, the general repaired a letter and flew to the capital, saying that he had to report the Jiang family's reverse, and he didn't have time to ask for an order, and he used the power of lightning to eliminate harm for the emperor, this is a great merit, maybe the emperor will reward you."

Zhang Rake thought about it, and always felt that this thing was not quite right, with his understanding of King Ning, just in Jiujiang Mansion, he Ning Wang could privately mobilize no less than tens of thousands of troops, why just let himself go, Zhang Rake couldn't guess the inside story for a while, and had the intention to shirk it, but he didn't dare to go back in person, and he was stunned for a while, "This, this"

King Ning's face sank, "What, this king, please don't move you?" ”

Zhang Rake was in a hurry, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that the last general has the emperor's order, and he will do his best to quell the bandits in the mountain, and now the bandits are not settled, and the last general will not dare to take care of him."

King Ning snorted, "Why, so you only have the holy decree in your eyes and not the royal decree of this king?" ”

As soon as King Ning's words came out, more than a dozen armored warriors standing beside him 'Canglang' pulled out half of the knives in their hands, and their sword-like eyes stared straight at Zhang Razi's heart.

Zhang Rake was anxious and speechless, and did not dare to disobey King Ning's words, Hukou County, Jiujiang Prefecture is nearly two hundred miles away from here, and it will take three or five days to go back and forth, and the emperor has only four days to limit the date of pacifying the mountain, and it is light to kill the head if he misses the day, but he is afraid that he will die in this nameless mountain recess now, and he will weigh the lighter of the two.

"No, no, the last general doesn't mean this, since Chitose trusts the last general so much, then the last general will send someone to run and lie down, and after a while, the last general will return to the camp and punish a powerful subordinate to lead five hundred light horsemen, rush to Jiangjiazhuang overnight, and take the artifact to offer it to the king in front of the king" Zhang Rake was afraid that King Ning would really be angry, so he hurriedly smiled and promised.

King Ning's face was still unfurled, "No, I want you to go in person?" ”

Zhang Rake's face twitched, "This, well, the end will be fate"

King Ning nodded, his face smug, "Well, that's good, without further ado, the general will leave tonight, go early and return early, Jiangjiazhuang is located in the middle of nowhere, in order for the general to make contributions as soon as possible, this king will help you two guides guide you"

As soon as the two warriors beside Ning Dynasty looked at each other, the two put their swords back into their sheaths, saluted King Ning, and stood behind Zhang Rake.

"Obey" Zhang Rake has no other way, where is this guide for him, obviously he is here to monitor him.

In fact, what Jiangjiazhuang said that there is a fetish, it is purely made up by King Ning, this is a plan he promised Lu Fei to help him temporarily support the rake, however, although the fetish is not, but Jiangjiazhuang does have a place, this Zhuangzi is a famous local hundred-year-old Wang clan, but because he did not buy King Ning's account, he was hated by King Ning, and he always wanted to find a reason to completely eradicate it.

Zhang Rake led the eyes of the two Ning Kings back to the barracks, at this time it was already dark, the whole battalion of 2,000 men and horses had been prepared, just waiting for the general's order, they could attack the mountain at night, but the military order they were waiting for was to transfer 500 light horses, galloping to Jiujiang Mansion in the starry night.

In the night wind, the torches swayed, making a whirring sound, Zhang Rake took the lead, waved the horsewhip, pointed to the direction of Jiujiang Mansion, and ordered in a deep voice, "Go"

The sound of the horse's hooves was loud, and Zhang Rake whipped the horse's belly wildly, and galloped away with five hundred light horses, hoping only to return to the camp before the twenty-eighth.

Early the next morning, Lu Fei found a carriage with big eyes, helped Li Zhong, and rushed to the Jiang family in the fishing village on the shore of Da Tai Lake.

After Zhao'an, he arranged the livelihood of the hundreds of bandits, and wanted to open an ore factory, before that, Lu Fei had to go to see if the three-dimensional integrated industry he arranged for the fishing village was really appropriate, if it could really bring prosperity to the local people, then he would be more confident that he could set up this ore factory, and by the way, he would also take Li Zhong to this village where no one knew him to recuperate, so as to appease his guilt.

When Lu Fei came to the fishing village, Jiang Wanhe was busy in the lake with dozens of strong laborers, and since there had been no rain in the lake these days, the silt had dried up and cracked in some places, and there were only a few small ditches seeping out of the bottom of the lake in some deep places.

As soon as Jiang Wanhe saw Lu Zhixian coming, he hurriedly ran up from the lake, the mud puddle all over his body, his trouser legs rolled up to his thighs, he washed the dirt on his hands, and ran to Lu Fei's side with a smile.

"County master, you don't come to report a letter in advance, look at this, how rude" Jiang Wanhe was very respectful to Lu Fei.

Lu Fei looked at the busy figures in front of him, he was very happy, as if he had seen the results of success, doing anything, it is not important if he has no ability, but he must have the confidence and unremitting efforts to succeed.

Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction, "It's not rude, I see that you are so motivated, it is happier than letting you delay your work to welcome me to do useless work, tell me, how are things going here?" ”

Jiang Wanhe pointed up and down the lake, "My lord, you see, according to your explanation, the stone paint exposed on the surface of the bottom of the lake has been burned clean, the toxic silt has been almost cleaned up, and the lake is also widened by one zhang, just wait for the water to arrive, and the water can be planted with some aquatic plants and the like, and then you can start stocking fish fry in a few months, and the harvest will be visible at the end of the next year”

Lu Fei snorted, then walked around the lake towards the two rows of houses, and said as he walked, "Very good, Jiang Lichang's work is still very effective, and there have been such results in just a few days, it's rare."

Jiang Wanhe arched his hand and said modestly, "Thanks to your strategy, my lord, my humble position is just a gourd to draw a scoop."

The two walked all the way, chatting about things related to breeding all the way, Jiang Wanhe really lived up to Lu Fei's trust, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, and even those fish fry and piglets had already found a home, and everything was really ready.

While he was talking, suddenly there was a dull thunder in the sky, just now the sky was still clear, and then there were dark clouds, the rain of the end of summer was coming, and before Lu Fei walked into the courtyard of the Jiang family, it was already raining heavily, and in an instant, the sky and the earth were hazy, the rain curtain was heavy, and the smell of earth was everywhere.

The villagers who were busy in the lake hurriedly ran to the shore, this shore is wide, the terrain is bottom, this pouring rain will not take a moment to accumulate water at the bottom of the lake, and if you run slowly, you can drown at the bottom of the lake.

As soon as all the villagers came ashore, they all stood under the big tree by the lake, cheering, and finally came down after waiting for so long, Lu Fei saw this situation, and hurriedly asked the officials to call those people home.

The heavy rain fell from morning to afternoon, the sky finally cleared, a round of rainbows, gorgeous floating in the sky, Lu Fei, who had been talking at the Jiang family for a day, walked out of the house, stretched out his arms, took a deep breath, refreshed, and looked at it, it was the golden rain that refused to do it, a kind of fragrance of better than musk sandalwood.

The big-eyed hand helped Li Zhong and walked out of the house, Lu Fei turned back to Li Zhong and said, "The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and no one knows you, how about it, it's a good place, right?" ”

Li Zhong said gratefully, "People who have died once, there is nothing to be picky about, Lord Lu's arrangement is very good, and I am grateful for it."

Lu Fei smiled and said to Jiang Wanhe, "Jiang Lichang, this friend of mine will be injured with you for a few days, don't bother?" ”

Jiang Wanhe smiled and arched his hand, "Where do adults speak, they are afraid that the place is shabby, and they will be slow to treat distinguished guests."

Li Zhong was covered with knife wounds all over his body, and his head was hit hard, at this time he leaned on the body of the big eye, and struggled to hug his fist at Jiang Wanhe, nodding his head, and thanking him for all his gratitude.

Lu Fei was one foot deep, one foot shallow dripping with mud after the rain, and came to Jiangjia Lake, where most of the lake had accumulated turbid water, and the lake surface was floating with dead branches and leaves washed down from the shore, and a gust of wind blew, and the turbid waves on the bank embankment surged.

Jiang Wanhe said with great interest, "My lord, this rain is too timely, and after a few days of precipitation, there will be a lake of clear water, and it seems that even God is helping us."

Lu Fei was also very happy, "I'm a layman in farming, do you have any considerations for Jiang Lichang?" ”

Jiang Wanhe said, "The silver carp and grass carp in the big lake are also common fish of this generation, and they have made a special trip to consult experts, this kind of fish has low requirements for water quality, is easy to survive, and grows fast, the meat quality is also delicious, and the price is also cheap, and this kind of fish is in short supply in the major restaurants and restaurants in the county."

Lu Fei exclaimed again and again, he just made a start for the people here and set up a stall, but he didn't expect Jiang Wanhe to even take these details into account, and couldn't help but praise, "If the county had more meticulous thoughts like Jiang Lichang, it would be much easier for me, good, very good, I said before, everything you produce here will be sent to the county seat, and I will let those restaurant owners and you set up long-term cooperation documents, both sides will benefit, and you don't have to worry about sales."

Jiang Wanhe arched his hand and said, "The adults are really caring for us villagers, and we can only do our best to repay the love of the people."

Lu Fei nodded and smiled, "Just have this heart, breeding seems to be easy, and it is also a craft to do, you have to find more experienced people to learn, everything must be prepared"

At this time, Lu Fei was very happy, Jiangjiahu was originally just a lifeless feng shui lake, it was he who completely changed all this, this is not only personal ability, but more importantly, power, he has the power of the county, and uses the power to change the people's livelihood, this can change all this, if he came to the Tang Dynasty just an ordinary person, no matter how smart and capable he is, he will never have such achievements.

Power is a good thing, this is the feeling that Lu Fei got after staying in the fishing village for a day, this kind of power is not to be high in front of people, nor to think about being famous in the world, it is just the power that can turn decay into a magical power for the benefit of the people, the greater this power, the better.

Lu Fei, who had been in the fishing village for a day, was eager to return to the city, presumably at this time King Ning had already branched Zhang Rake far away, and he could now go back and carry out Zhao'an unscrupulously to the end, but the rain stopped, but the road was extremely muddy, and even if he walked dozens of miles in a row, he didn't have the strength to do anything else even if he returned to the county seat, thinking about Lu Fei, he stayed at Jiang's house for one night.

The next day, the road had been dried, Lu Fei said goodbye to Li Zhong and Jiang Lichang, and rushed back to the county seat.

Ling Dan had already made preparations to go down the mountain to accept Zhao'an, and all the gold, silver and grain stored in the mountain over the years had been counted for handover to Lu Fei on the 28th, that is, two days later.

Not to mention, being a bandit in this era is really a profitable business, a small mountain, actually relying on robbing everywhere to save dozens of baskets of gold, silver and jade, the preliminary estimate is also around 50,000 taels, and the grain is also piled up like a mountain, which is secretly down the mountain to find the people of the villages to buy, in order to prevent the army to surround the mountain, the grain on the mountain is at least enough for three hundred people to consume for half a year, if it is not for Zhao'an, let Zhang Rake to forcibly attack, it will still take a lot of effort.
