Chapter Eighty-Four: You Are Intentional, I'm Ruthless

(ps: August is here.,Ask for a new January monthly pass.,The results aren't too good.,Just a little better than the last talent.,Please continue to support friends.") )

More than a dozen green battalion soldiers who rode on horses and seedlings were escorted to the field by the officials of Qujing County, and in front of the people, each of them was rewarded with forty boards, and the ghost cried wolf and the ass blossomed, and at the end they had to cover the flesh and blood of the ass to kowtow to the people to make amends, and then returned to the green camp to get good nutrition and injury, and had to receive another forty military sticks, the people of Qujing were relieved, shouting Qingtian Lu, but Qujing's prefect Li Shuzu was angry.

Fat Lu is slapping Chiguo's face, Fat Lu is not hitting the ass of the Green Battalion soldiers, but slapping Governor Li's face! In front of the common people, Lu Fatzi, the magistrate of the county, completely destroyed the plan of the Li Governor's Mansion to rescue his brother-in-law, not to mention; The key is to make Governor Li's love for the people like a son and enforce the law like a mountain, and he was also robbed of a fine light by Lu Fatzi's subordinate!

Li Zhifu is indeed unlucky, the green battalion is stationed in the place, and the local officials and people have inextricably linked close contacts, the whole thing before and after less than two days in Qujing City spread to the uproar, is everyone knows that he Li Shuzu in order to rectify Lu Fatzi, colluded with Liu Wenjin to pull Lu Fatzi into the green camp camp, during which the green battalion soldiers stepped on the seedlings and destroyed the fields, he, the prefect, ignored it, and also helped the green battalion soldiers to speak. And Lu Fatzi, a small magistrate, spoke generously in front of the green battalion soldiers' swords, mountains and guns, angrily accusing the green battalion soldiers of harassing the people, and finally withstood the pressure and brought the green battalion soldiers who rode on horses and seedlings to justice with the help of the army of King Pingxi, and punished them severely!

The stark contrast is placed here, what do the military and civilian people of Qujing think of him, the prefect of Li Shuzu? What do you think of the county order of Fat Lu? Can Governor Li still understand in his heart?

In short, when Lu Fatzi scolded the green battalion soldiers who violated the law and discipline in public, the crowded fields of Donghe Township were full of thunderous cheers, and hundreds of people shouted the voice of Master Lu in Qingtian, which could be heard clearly even in Qujing City. The huge cheers and shouts are also equivalent to huge ridicule and speechless ridicule for Governor Li, can Governor Li not hate Fat Lu to the bones, hate to the bone marrow?

Hate to hate, and what shocked Governor Li was that the origin and background of Lu Fatzi! Li Shuzu originally thought that Lu Fatzi was just an ordinary Western election official who had donated to the post, and he bought Wu Yingqi's backer with silver, and his background backer was vulnerable, even if he had a big reason, he could crush him to death with just a little finger, and he had been working against himself these days, and it was just the two hundred and five behaviors of this officialdom rookie, as long as he was intimidated by the force of Liu Wenjin or Wang Fuchen, the truth and law would be on his side, and Qujing Mansion would return to his wise and leadership. He will also regain the throne of Emperor Qujingtu.

It's just that what Governor Li couldn't dream of was that he finally bought Liu Wenjin to help him at a large price, and under Liu Wenjin's intimidation, Lu Fatzi was forced to expose the depth of his background and the toughness of his backer, which was far above his imagination! Even if Xiao Mazi appreciates the yellow coat he wears, Li Shuzu has seen it a few times, but the appearance of Ao Bai and Mu Lima brothers in Lu Fatzi's backer makes Li Shuzu completely unable to figure it out - aren't Emperor Mazi and Ao Bai mortal enemies? How can they join forces to support a Qipinzhi County? What is the origin and background of this Qipinzhi County called Lu Yifeng?

"What is the origin of this fat man Lu? What is the background? Returning home angrily, Li Shuzu pondered while half-lying on the chair, but the more he pondered, the more he couldn't figure it out, "Isn't this kid a Western election official?" Why did the emperor give him a yellow coat? Ao Bai and Mulima will also support him? Since he has such a deep background, why did he go to Wu Yingqi's straw bag to buy an official? Among them, is there something strange about it? ”

"Master, master, the little one is back." At this time, Li Shuzu's master Bi Huibin sneakily entered the study, and seeing Li Shuzu's eyes turned to him, Bi Huibin hurriedly said: "Master Qiyu, the people sent out to inquire about the news have been rewarded, the team of the new Yunnan governor Lin Tianqing has arrived in Yuanzhou, calculate the speed of the journey, and will definitely arrive in Qujing before the end of the month." ”

"Got it." Li Shuzu lazily agreed.

After waiting for a while, there was no follow-up, and Bi Huibin asked suspiciously: "Master, haven't you been looking forward to Lin Zhongcheng coming to clean up Lu Yifeng?" How not to prepare? If you don't collect some evidence about Lu Yifeng's crimes, even if Lin Zhongcheng wants to attack him, he can't find the crime to clean him up immediately? ”

Li Shuzu didn't answer immediately, and after a while, Li Shuzu said with a gloomy face: "I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as I imagined, I didn't expect that this fat man Lu was still standing behind Ao Bai and Mu Lima, and he was wearing a yellow coat personally rewarded by the emperor, with the cunning and cunning of Lin Tianqing's old thing, I'm afraid I can't take out such a big courage to directly take this Lu Yifeng." Even if we succeed, the price we pay will be extremely huge, and the gains will outweigh the losses. ”

"But if you don't clean up this Lu Yifeng, how will you stand up in the future, master? How to convince the public? Bi Huibin said loyally: "If you continue to let him be so rampant, I can't see it now, or in a year and a half, my lord, your losses will be great, let the lord for the lord You control the grain number, salt number, money village and medicine store business is completely lost, not to mention, as well as fire consumption and rat sparrow consumption, a few casinos and Qinglou Jiyuan money, these may not be able to be saved." ”

"What should I do with you?" Li Shuzu asked rhetorically.

"Dong Weng, there is a good saying, reluctant children can't trap wolves." Bi Huibin said gloomily: "There is another sentence that is also well said, long pain is better than short pain!" Instead of letting this Lu Yifeng continue to run rampant, it is better to get him down at any cost, as long as Qujing Mansion returns to the master's control, the money spent, the master is still afraid that he will not be able to get it back? ”

"There's some truth to that." Li Shuzu was a little tempted, but scratching his head and thinking about it, Li Shuzu felt that this matter was a bit risky - this fat man Lu was not as easy to bully as those who knew the county and the governor before, and the backer behind him pulled out a big man who he couldn't even provoke, although his backer Prince Kang Jieshu was almost there, but if he really made a big fuss, in case he lost both sides, wouldn't it be a big loss to give up the child and not get the wolf, lose his wife and not catch the hooligan?

"Divide is a lose, and a combination is a win." Thinking about this, Li Shuzu suddenly had such a thought, "Instead of fighting with Lu Fatzi and losing both, it is better to join forces with him, although it will lose some face, but at least it can save the brother-in-law, and the cost is relatively small, and then join forces to make money, and you are worried about whether you can scrape this Qujing three feet high?" ”

"Master, master, the younger brother of the slave family, have you rescued it?" At this time, a young woman in her thirties suddenly came in outside the study, with a plump figure and a bit of beauty, but it was Ren Zeyu, Li Shuzu's wife and the goddaughter of Prince Kang Jieshu, who cried at Li Shuzu as soon as she entered the door and wiped her tears: "Master, that poor brother of the slave family, but he has been locked up for more than half a month by the fat man surnamed Lu, why don't you want to save him?" You just can't bear to watch the slave's younger brother suffer in prison? ”

"Who's to say I'm not trying to figure it out?" Li Shuzu said helplessly: "In order to save your younger brother, I even sent out the jade axe of the king of Dali, although the matter still hasn't been done, but now I have a headache here, it's not your precious brother's business?" ”

"What? You gave away the jade axe that I married? Ren Zeyu jumped three feet high, crossed his waist and shouted: "Don't you know that the jade axe was handed down by my ancestor?" Legend has it that Zhao Kuangyin rewarded the king of Dali with good things, and gold and silver can't buy it! Are you willing to take it and give it away? You won't give away gold or silver? ”

"Come on, come on, isn't it to save your brother?" Li Shuzu said impatiently: "You shout that you are such a younger brother all day long, for fear of breaking the roots of your Ren family, and I am also in a hurry, so I will give away the things you married." Besides, what you say is true is true, and I haven't found anyone to be firm, maybe it's fake. ”

"It's true!" Ren Zeyu was anxious, and shouted with a jump: "It's not that I haven't told you, my family's original surname is Lu, my grandfather's generation changed his surname after the Ren family, our Lu family is a descendant of the Duan family of Dali, when the Zhu Ming army of the previous dynasty entered Yunnan, my ancestor was an official of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was afraid that Zhu Ming's army would settle accounts, so he changed his surname to Lu!" That jade axe was left by my ancestors! ”

"I don't believe it, it's been hundreds of years, who dares to guarantee that there is no one who is miswritten?" Li Shuzu lay on the couch, raised his hand and waved his hand weakly, and said: "It's all sent out, don't regret it, don't bother me if you want to save your brother, I've found a clue, you let me be quiet, maybe I can come up with a way to rescue your brother in a while." ”

"It's not that, I didn't lie to you, that jade axe is really handed down from Dali, and it is an heirloom of my family." Ren Zeyu was completely anxious, pulling Li Shuzu's sleeve and crying and making trouble, forcing Li Shuzu to get the jade axe back. And Li Shuzu didn't believe that his little wife was really a descendant of King Dali, and secondly, he knew that the jade axe had been sent to Kunming by Liu Wenjin as physical evidence, although he would not be able to defeat himself, but it was impossible to come back, so Li Shuzu was inevitably even more irritable, and couldn't help but push Ren Zeyu away, Ren Zeyu rolled on the spot, and the accustomed surname rolled on the ground and cried.

"Conscienceless, conscienceless dogs!" Ren Zeyu cried on the ground, "If it weren't for the old lady who gave up her face to beg her godfather, Wu Sangui rectified you five years ago, you would have to dismiss the official and lose your crown, and now that you have kept your top, you will dislike the old lady, I think the old lady is annoyed, and I also gave away the old lady's family heirloom, I knew that you were this kind of dog with no conscience, the old lady should not have helped you back then, let you lose your official position, and ask for ......." ”

It's good that Ren Zeyu didn't mention the incident five years ago, but when he mentioned this matter, Li Shuzu's anger didn't hit one place - that time Ren Zeyu went to the capital to give himself an activity, lived in King Kang's Mansion for half a year, and gave birth to a big fat boy for himself only five months after he came back, Li Shuzu still swallowed his anger and forced a smile, Ren Zeyu still had the face to mention this matter? ! In a fit of rage, Li Shuzu also jumped up, grabbed Ren Zeyu's hair, and scolded viciously: "Stinky girl, you still have the face to mention that!" If you think your godfather is useful, you can go and ask him to save your brother! Aren't you from Dali and surnamed Lu? Lu Fatzi is also a native of Dali and his surname is Lu, maybe you are still close, you can also beg him, beg him to let ...... go. ”

After a while, Li Shuzu suddenly pressed Ren Zeyu's hand on his face, and asked in surprise: "Madam, will you really get close to Lu Yifeng?" If so, then saving your brother is not a matter of words? ”

"That's right, how did I forget, I may be related to Lu Yifeng." Ren Zeyu also came back to his senses, and hurriedly shouted: "Then what are you still doing?" Why don't you go and find Lu Yifeng's resume, I will also go back to find my family's genealogy to see if I am really related to him! ”

After a busy afternoon, what made Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu overjoyed was that Ren Zeyu, who was born in the Lu family in Dali, was really a relative of Lu Fatzi's first five suits, and Ren Zeyu's great-grandfather was a distant cousin of Lu Fatzi's great-grandfather. Under the great joy, Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu didn't care about their seniority, so they hurriedly put forward a generous gift, and Huan Huanxi came to say goodbye to Lu Fatzi's cousin. Li Shuzu even had such thoughts, "If you take this opportunity to connect with Lu Fatzi, and then connect with the backers behind him?" So before you are in Zhishi, can you also taste what it is like to be a governor and governor? ”

………………

When Li Shuzu and his wife sent the famous thorn to Lu Fatzi's county office, Lu Fatzi had just returned from the farmland outside the city covered in mud, and was receiving Shang Wanyan's counting, scolding Lu Fatzi for not liking cleanliness and being covered with dirt and sweat, and Lu Fatzi replied with a sad face that there was no way, it was raining, and he was urging the people to spring plough in the farmland, and he couldn't find a place to hide from the rain. Fortunately, Shang Wanzhen is not the kind of daughter who doesn't understand anything, she won't pursue it anymore after listening to the explanation, and she personally wiped her face and changed her clothes for Lu Fatzi, and at this time, Li Shuzu's name assassin was sent to Lu Fatzi.

"Li Shuzu, what tricks does this old thing want to play again?" Fat Lu looked at the famous thorn, and said suspiciously: "It's not the first time we've met, and you still need to send a famous thorn?" Besides, it seems that there is no rule that a boss asks to see a subordinate to send a famous assassination, right? ”

"Nothing to do, either annihilation or theft." Shang Wanzhen was also infected by Lu Fatzi with a lot of suspicious bad habits, and said: "It's better not to see it, just let Menzi tell him that you are sick and it is not suitable to meet guests." ”

"Xiao Gege, young master, Li Futai seems to have come to recognize relatives this time." Xiao Erlang said truthfully: "Li Futai told us that his wife Ren Zeyu's surname is Lu, and she is a person from the Lu family in Dali. ”

"Hey, that's a weird thing that happens every year, and this year is especially a lot." When Fat Lu heard the music, he smiled and said, "When did I run out of a cousin and aunt come out?" Also, this has always been a subordinate looking for a boss to recognize relatives, and I have never heard of a boss taking the initiative to find a subordinate to recognize relatives. ”

"Young master, maybe it's true." Xiao Erlang reminded seriously: "Young Master, your Lu family is also a big family in Dali, although now Young Master, your generation is not prosperous, but listen to my grandfather, Young Master, the Lu family before your grandfather's generation was very prosperous, and there are so many relatives that you can't count them." It was only later that the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the war in Yunnan, and the death of relatives fled, and the family declined. If Li Futai's wife is really from the Lu family in Dali, she will be related to you. ”

"Then I'll have to take a look." Fat Lu was shocked and said, "No, I have to go and see what kind of relationship Li Shuzu has with me!" If he raided the house and destroyed the nine clans or something that day, don't implicate me, and even take me to be beheaded! Erlang, you quickly ask someone to invite them into the living room, and let Master Zhu entertain him first. ”

"Phew! Dogs can't spit ivory out of their mouths! Shang Wanyan was not happy when she heard it, and scolded: "Dead fat man, just after the New Year, what are you saying that is unlucky?" ”

"Then you still scold me for being a fat man all day long? Do you want me to hang up sooner and remarry? Fat Lu asked unconvinced. Seeing Shang Wanyan's pretty face, Fat Lu hurriedly took her little hand and said with a smile: "Just kidding, how could my Wanwan sister be willing to let me die?" Okay, good, come with me to meet your cousin and aunt, who are also your cousins and aunts. ”

"Phew! Who can't bear to let you die? Who is my cousin and aunt again? Shang Wanyan's face flushed, and she spat on Fat Lu again, but she still obediently helped Fat Lu change his clothes, let Fat Lu pull him, and followed Fat Lu to meet his relatives.

All the way to the living room, Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu were already sitting in the hall for tea, and Zhu Fangdan grabbed Ren Zeyu's hand, which was quite a bit of a gesture, and shook his head and said the pulse, bluffing Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu. Seeing Lu Fatzi and his wife coming in, Li Shuzu got up and exclaimed: "Lord Lu, you Qujing County Ya is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, I can't imagine that your master is actually the famous miracle doctor Mr. Zhu Fangdan Zhu, and I can see at a glance that my inner man is sick!" ”

"If your wife is old and ugly, Zhu Fangdan will definitely not be able to see that she is sick." Lu Fatzi and Shang Wanyan sighed in their hearts together, and they were helpless to take Zhu Fangdan's problem. At that moment, Lu Fatzi pulled Shang Wanzhen to salute Li Shuzu, and said respectfully: "Xiaguan Lu Yifeng, I have seen the prefect, but I don't know that the lord has arrived, and I have missed the welcome, and I hope to forgive my sins." Shang Wanzhen was also blessed, and said: "The little girl Shang Wanhuan has seen the prefect, the prefect's wife, and the lord and his wife Wanfu Jin'an. ”

"Xiao Gege, please hurry up, what kind of person is a lowly position, how can you be worthy of your courtesy?" Li Shuzu hurriedly pulled Ren Zeyu to return the salute, and said affectionately: "Xiao Gege is really handsome, my nephew is blessed!" I heard that you are going to Kunming to get married, and when the time comes, your uncle and aunt will definitely buy you a good gift, and if our nephew dares to bully you in the future, you will tell us that we will clean him up for you. ”

What Shang Wanzhen is most afraid of now is that others will mention this matter, and she will immediately blushed and stop talking. Over there, Ren Zeyu grabbed Fat Lu's fat hand and said more affectionately: "Nephew Yifeng, let my aunt take a look at you." You said, our relatives are in the same city, and my aunt didn't know that there was such a nephew as you until today, isn't she so sorry for your nephew? ”

was about to change to another official, and the wife of the boss took the initiative to come to recognize the relatives, and she was already so happy that she didn't know where she was, whether it was really or not, the relatives immediately knelt down and kowtowed. But Fat Lu didn't, but looked Ren Zeyu up and down, and asked tentatively with a puzzled face: "Mrs. Li, you must not have misrecognized your relatives?" Are you really the aunt of the lower official? ”

"Oh, Lord Lu, my aunt is not greedy for you, and she will come to confess her relatives?" Ren Zeyu's mouth was like smearing honey, and he handed a thick family tree to Lu Fatzi, and said affectionately: "Yifeng, look at it quickly, this is the genealogy of our Lu family, my aunt was originally surnamed Lu, and your great-grandfather succeeded to the Ren family, so I changed my surname Ren, and it is clearly written on it, you are my cousin!" ”

It's a matter of life, and Fat Lu didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly took over the family tree and rummaged through it, while Ren Zeyu chattered beside him: "Yifeng, your family is a side branch, you must not know it yet, in fact, my aunt and your ancestor are not surnamed Lu, they are surnamed Duan, and the dignified Dali Duan family is a Miao descendant, but later the former Ming army entered Yunnan, and our family changed its surname to Lu." Speaking of which, our aunt and nephew are still in the royal family, and their bloodlines are noble and ......, hehehehe....... ”

"On my small body, there is still the blood of the Dali Duan family? No wonder I became after inheriting this body, it turned out to be DNA and hormones. The more Lu Fatzi listened, the more dumbfounded he became, and he couldn't help but start thinking in his heart, "I, the signboard of a descendant of the Dali royal family, can I take it out and use it to unite some Yunnan people?" ”

Under the enthusiastic guidance of Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu, Lu Fatzi finally found evidence that he and Ren Zeyu were related, and what made Lu Fatzi relieved was that although he and Ren Zeyu did get a little close, they were lucky to come out of the five suits - this means that even if Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu were exterminated together in the Nine Clans, they would not be involved in Lu Fatzi.

"How?" Ren Zeyu asked expectantly: "Yifeng, now you should know about our kinship, right?" ”

Fat Lu didn't answer, and after thinking about it for a while, Fat Lu turned to Zhu Fangdan and asked, "Master Zhu, you didn't check anything out of the pulse of Mrs. Li Futai just now, right?" ”

"There's nothing wrong with it." Zhu Fangdan peeked at Ren Zeyu's delicate and convex figure, and said with a sigh of saliva: "It's just that the geranium is a little out of balance, and there is some slight dizziness, no need to take medicine, it's okay to take care of your diet and daily life." ”

"The heart is okay, right?" Fat Lu asked.

"Heart?" Zhu Fangdan paused, and said suspiciously: "No problem?" Could it be that the proprietor wants the student to use the Western doctor's method and put his ear on Mrs. Li's chest for examination, which is not very elegant, right? ”

"Strange then?" Lu Fatzi was even more puzzled than Zhu Fangdan, and muttered: "Since there is nothing wrong with his heart, why did some people complain a few days ago that a little beggar who had soiled Mrs. Li's shoes when he kowtowed and begged for food, and was injured by Mrs. Li's call, and he had no money to treat the injury, and his wound was inflamed and died?" ”

"There is also a very beautiful maid in Governor Li's house, I heard that because she often served Li Futai, she offended Mrs. Li, and disappeared without knowing it, and the maid's parents went to the Yamen of Futai to ask for someone, and they were beaten out by Mrs. Li, saying that their daughter ran away by herself because she didn't keep the woman's way, and she wanted to find the maid's parents to sell her body for money?"

Zhu Fangdan stopped talking, but Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu and his wife blushed together, but they still held back their anger and prepared to explain, but the fat man Lu over there did not give up, and said: "Also, Doctor Zhu, you have to examine Mrs. Li carefully, Mrs. Li's body is unusual, she lived in King Kang's Mansion in Beijing for half a year, and she gave birth to a big fat boy in only five months after she came back - if we can find out the reason, we don't need to worry about the lack of people in the southwestern provinces of the Qing Dynasty." ”

"Bang!" Li Shuzu couldn't bear it anymore, knocked down the teacup on the table, got up with a blushing face and walked out. Over there, Ren Zeyu's pretty face was red and blue, and he glared at Lu Fatzi with great resentment, and he also got up and left with his sleeves up, and swore in his heart that no matter what means he used, he must let this distant nephew die without a place to be buried!

"Li Futai, go slowly." Lu Fatzi got cheap, and pretended to say goodbye to Li Shuzu.

Li Shuzu stopped and said word by word: "The surname is Lu, I know that your backstage is hard, but the old man's backstage is not as good as that, it's a big deal that everyone will die together, from today on, we will be incompatible!" After that, Li Shuzu didn't look back, and walked out of Lu Fatzi's narrow yard in a rage.

"Dead fatty, that's not your style." Shang Wanyan said suspiciously: "Although your two distant relatives are shameless and vicious, and they deserve death, you have always liked to stab you in the back, why did you openly turn your face with them today?" ”

"If I don't turn my face with them publicly, I'm in big trouble." Fat Lu sneered and said: "If I recognize their two relatives today, then they will definitely propose reconciliation and ask me to release that bully Ren Xinglai, this is nothing, the key is that I have no chance to quickly bring down Li Shuzu." If you don't completely turn your face with them like this, and force them to take the initiative to make a move, what chance did I have to quickly bring down Li Shuzu? ”

After that, Fat Lu added in his heart, "Don't you bring down Li Shuzu, a hardcore man?" Under his nose, where did I have the opportunity to train and forge cannons, and test new weapons? ”
