Chapter 201: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
What Master Lu said was not complicated, not even very sensational, but just told the story concisely.
It's roughly the story that there was an aunt named Bai Susu in the past, who stayed by Lord Lu's side with her cheekiness, and then the Aunt Bai accidentally had something happening, so she didn't remember anything, and Lord Lu saw her pitiful, so he couldn't bear to drive her away and continue to keep her by his side.
Bai Zhi didn't speak for a while after listening to it, and she didn't know if Lord Lu's tone was too calm, so it was not difficult for her to accept, but she was a little surprised, but when she thought about it, Lord Lu was kind to her. But she didn't believe the meaning of Lord Lu's words on the outside, how could a woman like her, who was loved by everyone and saw flowers blooming, could stay by Lord Lu's side because of her cheekiness.
"Then do you mean that I should be called Bai Susu?" She asked.
"Well, it's called Bai Susu." Lu Zhiyuan nodded, "Originally, it didn't matter what it was called, I didn't tell you." ”
His tone was very casual, but Bai Zhi always felt in his heart that he seemed to have something to hide from him, and it was not as simple as he said, "Really? ”
"Really." Lu Zhiyuan said.
Bai Zhi didn't continue to ask, since Lord Lu didn't want to say it, there was naturally a reason why she didn't want to say it, and she might not be able to get the answer if she asked.
The two talked for a long time, and it was obviously not early outside, so they stopped.
Bai Zhi closed her eyes, thinking about what Master Lu told her all the time, thinking about it was both incredible and reasonable. No wonder Lord Lu decided to stay by her side as soon as she saw her at that time, before she thought that her dish happened to meet Lord Lu's appetite, so it was love at first sight.
Her eyelids sank as she thought about it, and her consciousness became confused, and she slowly fell asleep.
Unlike her, Lu Zhiyuan never fell asleep, and after the breathing sound next to him calmed down, he opened his eyes and looked at the sleepy face close at hand, and there was guilt in his eyes that was difficult to hide.
Lu Zhiyuan did have something in his heart, he said a lot of things to Aunt Bai, but he deliberately omitted the most important thing, that is, their children.
At that time, she disappeared and disappeared, and there was no trace for half a year, and there was almost no chance of surviving such a flood, and he gradually reluctantly began to accept it from the beginning of his disbelief.
After all, if half a year has passed, how can a person not want to contact him.
At that time, Lu Zhiyuan was busy with official business, and there was a lot of backlog of cases in his hands, and he couldn't afford to be uncomfortable, and the child also needed to be taken care of.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Roche went to see him, and it was the first time he had spoken calmly since he and Roche had drifted apart because of various things.
Luo's intention is very clear, Aunt Bai is gone, she is still very young and needs to be taken care of, and it just so happens that she has no children under her knees and wants to pass the child under her own name.
Lu Zhiyuan was surprised when he heard Luo's intention, but after thinking about it, he and Luo's two sides were responsible for coming to the end of the year, although Luo's did a lot of things that made him angry, but in the end, he still felt a little guilty, after all, Luo's childlessness was caused by him. Therefore, when Roche asked for a stepchild, he had no reason and could not refuse.
The most important reason was that he also thought that Bai Susu would not come back at that time, so he decided the matter after a little consideration. The succession is simple, but it is not as simple as words, to open the ancestral hall, inform the ancestors, and know relatives and friends, as long as the ceremony is completed, there is no possibility of change, although the child was born to Aunt Bai, but it can also be said that it has nothing to do with her.
Lu Zhiyuan never thought that he would meet Aunt Bai in Jinling City, and the encounter was gratifying, but at the same time, he also began to worry.
If Aunt Bai knew that he had given the child to Luo's, I don't know if she would forgive him, he had been worried about this matter for a long time, and he had been conflicted because of this, on the one hand, he wanted her to recover her memory, and on the other hand, he privately hoped that she would not recover her memory.
Now that she knows who she is, the things about the child will not be able to hide sooner or later, Lu Zhiyuan thought about it and sighed, the more she thought about these things, the more annoying she became, it was really more troublesome than the case outside.
That's it, I don't want to, let's take one step at a time.
Lu Zhiyuan soon fell asleep, and the next day was another busy day.
Jinling salt administration in Lu Zhiyuan's governance is now much better than before, he adopted the Huairou policy, his own ideas little by little, the salt merchants from the beginning of the resistance, to the back found that once there is a law to follow, there are orders to follow after many things are convenient, and no longer contradict him to implement the new policy.
Illegal salt has been banned repeatedly, and in the final analysis, it is because of the two largest salt lords.
Bihai Pavilion and Yuhuatang.
The old pavilion master of Bihai Pavilion was very famous on this road when he was young, because he was righteous and bold, and the brothers who followed him quickly accumulated, and took advantage of the loopholes in the Jinling salt industry, and after making a few profits, he started a business and soon established Bihai Pavilion. But over the years, after the Pavilion of Bihai Pavilion Yitang was not in good health, he rarely managed the affairs of the gang, and handed over the affairs of the gang to the few hall masters below, and he spent most of the year cultivating his body.
The other one is called Yuhuatang, and Bihai Pavilion is different, this is a very old salt gang, the gang leader has changed a few times, the latest one is called Li Meng, according to rumors, he is a ruthless master, he was a deputy hall master under the former gang master, but he was dissatisfied with some of the gang leader's policies, and cooperated with several people below to kill the former gang leader and sit in the position of the gang leader.
After Li Meng sat on the position of hall master, he vigorously expanded his territory, and in less than a year, he beat Bihai Pavilion back again and again, according to this posture, he had the intention of dominating the salt gang.
These two salt gangs, one seems to be a plate of loose sand, and the other seems to be in the middle of the day.
But Lu Zhiyuan doesn't think so, some things often seem good and may not be really good, just like the rapid expansion of Yuhuatang's territory The disadvantage is that the management can't keep up, and the new recruits are obviously uneven. And Bihai Pavilion seems to be in a much worse situation now, not necessarily not in the name of paralyzing the opponent.
"My lord, after receiving the latest news, it seems that Bihai Pavilion is going to make a big move when it gathers the gang recently." Tang Feng trotted all the way into the study, and even his breath was a little unsteady when he ran in a hurry.
Hearing this, Lu Zhiyuan's hand holding the pen stopped, he raised his head and smiled, "The fish we have been fishing for so long can be regarded as bait." ”
Tang Feng was still a little uneasy, "But according to his subordinates, this Bihai Pavilion is really enduring, it has been suppressed for so long before he wants to resist, and this time I don't know if it will be thunder and rain again." ”
This was once before, when the people of Yuhuatang grabbed the land for the first time, they received news that Bihai Pavilion was gathering people, and the people of the government were already waiting there, but no one expected that Bihai Pavilion suddenly quieted down, and there was no movement at all.
Lu Zhiyuan pondered a little when he heard this, "Since you want to cook, how can you do it if the fire is not strong, let's add a handful of firewood to him." ”
Tang Feng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Please make it clear." ”
Lu Zhiyuan lowered his head and wrote a few words, and then handed the paper to Tang Feng.
After that, it was quiet for two days, and on the third day, before dawn, the sound of weapons clashing sounded in the street outside, and the people on the street all closed the door of their houses when they heard the movement, and a few who dared to look out through the crack in the door.
There were two groups of people standing in the dark on the street, both with weapons in their hands, which made the people and horses on both sides look at each other angrily, and no one was pleasing to the eye, and the smell of gunpowder filled the street.
"Why don't you turtles hide this time, I advise you to hurry up and continue to shrink your heads and be people, and be careful that your grandfathers beat you all over the ground looking for teeth." The person who spoke was a well-known hall master on the side of Yuhuatang, leading dozens of people in his hands, and he looked like he was a little over-eyed.
Bihai Pavilion was naturally not to be outdone, and one person stepped forward and choked back, "A group of turtle grandsons also dare to show their teeth and claws here, and you are still crawling around with your bare butts when Lao Tzu is messing outside." ”
After he finished speaking, Bihai Pavilion burst into laughter, and the little hall master of the angry Yuhua Hall had a clear face, and his eyes were about to pop out, and he spat on the ground, "Give the face a shameless thing." ”
If the two parties disagree, they will have to move their hands.
At this time, Tang Feng, who was ambushed on both sides of the street with people, calculated the time, and when the two groups of people were almost fighting, he led people to appear to stop them.
"The helper told us not to do anything with anyone, we just want to get the brothers back this time." A small leader under the Bihai Pavilion said.
The hall master naturally knew what he said, and he thought so before he came out, but this dog blood spray that would be pointed at and scolded by people couldn't swallow this breath.
"I've got my own measure." He brought people here this time to negotiate with the people on the other side of Yuhuatang, and bring out the brothers who were detained by Bihai Pavilion intact.
The people in Yuhuatang on the other side continued to scold, the more unpleasant the words turned out, and the one who was the leader was even more arrogant, "To tell you the truth, just a few of you, you are simply weak and vulnerable, and we beat them all over the ground looking for teeth, yesterday let them drink urine, and today I am going to make them eat." ”
The men behind him burst into laughter as they coaxed.
"It's so deceitful." Bihai Pavilion is all red-faced, being insulted in front of someone, it is a person who can't bear it, how can he mix it up after he endures it today, won't he be laughed at by others.
"Brothers, give it to me, these turtle grandchildren, we don't know their mothers today." As soon as the hall master of Bihai Pavilion gave an order, the gangs below were suddenly excited, and dozens of people rushed forward with knives and sticks.
Yuhuatang is not easy to provoke, the two sides quickly hit one place, Tang Feng looked at it and snickered, "After waiting for so long, it can be regarded as a fight." ”
Just when the two sides were fighting, suddenly a group of officers and soldiers rushed out of nowhere, all with knives in their hands.
