Chapter 224: The Lobbyist's Mouth

Liu Ci's eyes were narrow and long, and there was a touch of verbosity in the surprise. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"This is what you call jade?"

Although it was said that it was a blaming tone, his expression was not half displeased, in contrast, he was still interested and satisfied with his calm look, and when he looked at Zhao Pu, Liu Ci's eyes were always deep.

Zhao Pu arched his hand and said, "My lord, let me introduce you, this is the leader of Basket Jade County, and he should be the best beautiful jade in Basket Jade County." “

Liu Ci looked at this honest middle-aged man, and saw that the person was as white as dirt, exuding a simple blackness, which was also the result of most of his life's work, and now when he saw Liu Ci, he turned out to be two more lumps of red under his high cheekbones.

"This is ......" The middle-aged man with a long face hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully, "Lord Liu Ci?" ”

Liu Ci nodded, but Yu Guang quickly glanced outside the door for a few seconds.

Zhao Pu naturally understood what Liu Ci was worried about, so he hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord, my lord came to my room to have a private relationship, but as for this person coming to my room, no one knows." ”

Looking at Brother Jun who was guarding the door, Liu Ci still had some doubts more or less.

But at this point, it was difficult for him to care about what to write, so he had to turn his head and face the simple middle-aged man intently, "I don't know what Your Excellency is looking for me?" ”

"I want to surrender."

The middle-aged man seemed to be very anxious at this time, after all, it was a matter of life, it was difficult to say what kind of thoughts Lord Ji Miaoji had in his heart, which naturally had great benefits to the people of Huangyu County, but those soldiers and ruffians didn't even pay attention to the literati and inkmen, how would they feel about these peasant children facing the loess with their backs to the sky?

It's just a bunch of pigs and sheep who don't know their master!!

The middle-aged man understood very well that his own life might be in the hands of others at this time, so he said so openly.

Liu Ci's eyes fluttered slightly, but he still looked polite.

"Your Excellency has led the people of Huangyu County to surrender to Cheng, how can you say that you will surrender again?" Liu Ci prevaricated in every possible way, "Here, I am just a second-in-command with no real power, and few big things can be done through my hands." ”

"Don't be too modest, adults." Although the middle-aged man is also the son of an official eunuch, he has been doing farm work for half his life, and he has contracted an acute child, "My lord, don't sell Guanzi anymore, Liu Zhiyuan Liu has already written to me a few days ago, but if I surrender to Liu Zhiyuan, this reward is naturally indispensable." ”

Liu Ciyi raised his eyebrows, he had never heard of this before, including when he saw Zhao Pu alone, he didn't hear Zhao Pu mention it, and now that this middle-aged man said this, he could only put on an expression that he had known for a long time, secretly suppressed the surprise in his heart, and looked at Zhao Pu with a smile.

Zhao Pu stood aside calmly, still looking carefree.

"So, it looks like you have your own considerations." Liu Ci said this, just to give himself a step.

Unexpectedly, this middle-aged man spoke directly. "I'll just ask you one thing."

"You say." When Liu Ci raised his hand, he still had some momentum.

"I want to ask your lordship, ......," the middle-aged man said with sincere fear, "Are you really related to Lord Liu Zhiyuan?" ”

"Blood relatives?" Liu Ci suddenly looked at Zhao Pu with a cloudy face, and could no longer hide the anger on his face. "What do you mean by that?"

The words gradually became heavier, and the middle-aged man was not a fool, so he naturally sensed that something was wrong from the conversation between Liu Ci and Zhao Pu, and hurriedly pulled Zhao Pu's collar and shook violently, "What do you mean?" Didn't you say that Liu Ci and Liu Zhiyuan are some blood relatives? “

Zhao Pu smiled slightly, "Why did I say that I was a blood relative?" Is it all what you thought it was? There are so many people with the surname Liu in the world, why do everyone have something to do with it? ”

Liu Ci's face was pale, and so was the middle-aged man, both of whom glared angrily at Zhao Pu.

The middle-aged man suddenly sat on the ground a little stunned, and said with words in his mouth, "It's over, it's over, and the lives of our family will not be reported." ”

Liu Ci said, "I'll give you a choice, if you are willing to defect to me, I will speak for you over there Liu Zhiyuan." ”

"You?" The middle-aged man raised his head slightly, "You are not his blood relative, why are you speaking for me?" ”

"Although my Liu family is not able to become a dignitary, and he is on a par with Liu Zhiyuan, the number one general in the world, but he also has a solid family background and no worries, so these things you said are very simple to me." Liu Ci's words seemed to have become a reassuring pill, making the middle-aged man breathe a little, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

'Really?' When the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked, he was always a little shocked.

"Seriously." The silent look in Liu Ci's eyes flashed, which could give people endless coercion, and such a gaze made the middle-aged man feel a little relieved.

"A villain's life depends on an adult."

Liu Ci nodded, "If you are willing to sincerely surrender to me, I will naturally leave you alive, I can't hide it, Lord Ji will keep you for two days, and when Basket Yu County recovers, I will send you away." ”

"Send me away?" The middle-aged man's pupils trembled.

"Yes, I'm a puppet, useless, if I can be martial, I can also have an official and a half-position, but I am a leader of the size of a chief, how can I be put in the eyes of the festival envoy?"

Liu Ci patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder, "If you can find me, it means that your vision is not bad, and if you have the opportunity in the future, I will not forget about Huangyu County." ”

"Then thank you Lord Liu in advance." When the middle-aged man thanked him, he didn't know why he finished Zhao Pu with a glance.

On the contrary, Zhao Pu seemed to be a nobody, clapping his hands and calling Brother Jun over.

Brother Jun jumped into the shadow, and directly caught the middle-aged man and drank it out.

In the blink of an eye, Liu Ci and Zhao Pu were left in the hut.

Liu Ci coughed lightly, and said in a very silent voice, "This person ...... Was it framed by you? ”

"You can't say that, how can there be a lobbyist in ancient and modern China and abroad who is completely truthful?" Zhao Pu smiled facelessly.

Liu Ci scolded, "With the origin of your surname, I really don't know what your intentions are." ”

"The benefits? Hasn't Lord Liu already accepted these benefits? ”

Hearing Zhao Pu say this, Liu Ci didn't blame, and pinched his palm gently, but it was like holding a heavy object, secretly exerting force.

Everyone has ambitions, and Liu Ci also has them, and Liu Ci's ambition is not to be the emperor, but to how to glorify the lintel to become a festival envoy.

Now it's not far off. (To be continued.) )
