Chapter 119: Killing
After a while, Zhen Yi sent someone to invite Lu Chen to the banquet, he thought that Lu Chen would leave after taking the marriage certificate, but he didn't expect him to rely on it. Therefore, he had no choice but to send people to bring food to the soldiers in and out of Lu Chen's city, and invited Lu Chen to the banquet.
Not to mention lunch, the rich family can afford to eat three meals, and the Chinese food is also very rich, mainly meat, dog meat, beef and mutton plus pickled venison, and women are not seated, so only Zhen Yi, Lu Chen, Zhang Pu, Cao Xing and Zhen Yao are eaten.
Probably because Zhen Yi was worried that Lu Chen liked to cut people for fun, so he restrained the children of the Zhen family, and Lu Chen almost didn't see the other Zhen family members. It wasn't until dinner time that I saw Zhen Yi's third son Zhen Yao, Zhen Yao was twenty-three or four years old, sick, and almost forgot to drill under the wood when he saw Lu Chen, and Lu Chen was not interested in taking care of him, and he looked like a passerby.
At the banquet, Zhen Yi naturally turned around and asked Lu Chen when he was leaving, but Lu Chen didn't give him a good look at all, so he asked, what's the matter? Are you going to find someone to ambush me halfway? Cold sweat broke out on Zhen Yi's forehead, and he even said no. In the end, Zhen Yi didn't dare to say more, so he had to watch Lu Chen take a plate of mustard juice and dip it in meat to eat.
In the afternoon, Lu Chen took a nap first, and then rode around the city and outside the city a few times, and before he knew it, it was almost dusk.
Back at the Zhen family's mansion, Lu Chen saw Zhen Yi pacing around the door, looking quite anxious.
Lu Chen dismounted and asked with a smile: "Why is Lord Taishan so worried?" But worried that Chen was taken captive? ”
Zhen Yiwei smiled embarrassedly: "The soldiers are in chaos, and I am really worried about the general." ”
"Yo! Then I want to thank you family! Lu Chen laughed weirdly and looked at Zhen Yi.
Zhen Yi was looked at cramped, and said with a dry smile: "No thanks, no thanks......"
"Alright, don't wait! Zhang Pu won't come, he has already been slaughtered by me. Suddenly jokingly, Lu Chen threw the horsewhip to Lu Zhan, and then strode in from Zhen Yi's side, suddenly stopped, turned to Zhen Yi and said, "It's late, it's time to eat and sleep!" The venison is good at noon today, so prepare more in the evening. ”
With that, Lu Chen walked into the mansion without looking back.
Zhen Yi froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning, his face was like gold paper, and cold sweat was whizzing down.
After a long time, Zhen Yi was supported by the old housekeeper and entered the house in despair, feeling so worried that Zhang Pu was dead? Did he know about it? How good is that? Wouldn't the Zhen family be ruined?
There was one less person at dinner in the evening, and the county Cheng Zhang Pu was gone.
Before the meal, Lu Chen kindly asked Zhen Yi to take Zhen Yi to the city gate to see his good friend. Although Zhang Pu only had a head like a night pot hanging on the head of the city and fluttering in the wind, looking a little lonely, Zhen Yi couldn't muster up the courage to accompany Zhang Pu, and didn't say anything, only saying that he didn't know what Zhang Pu had done.
At the dinner table, Lu Chen still ate very fragrantly, but Zhen Yi didn't know the taste, Lu Chen asked Zhen Yi: "Lord Taishan, why don't you eat?" ”
Zhen Yiwang saw the huge sauce sheep's head before he met, and remembered Zhang Pu's bloody head hanging on the city tower, he really had no appetite, he said a little shyly: "No, I'm not hungry." ”
Lu Chen handed him a small dish of mustard juice: "Give you an appetizer." ”
Then, Zhen Yi was choked to death and rolled on the ground, Lu Chen instructed the soldiers to splash Zhen Yi with cold water, and explained to Cao Xing: "You see, many people can't accept mustard, they can't even take a bite, let alone apply mustard juice to their wounds. So, mustard is more than just a spice, and it is much more effective against captives than whipping. ”
Cao Xuan nodded violently, and subconsciously remembered the Wen Chou brother who was coated with mustard juice all over his body two days ago. said that these mustard juices were originally prepared for Wen Chou, and Lu Chen liked spicy food, so he kept some of them.
When Zhen Yi was doused with cold water and knelt on the seat and shivered, Lu Chen stopped using Cao Xing's popular science mustard juice and turned to look at his Taishan Lord Zhen Yi.
"Write a letter to Hejian County to ask for reinforcements, I won't say anything, after all, you haven't signed the marriage certificate yesterday, and it's up to you to do whatever you want. However, today is your fault, you say, the county Zhang Puduo is pitiful? Just because I helped you choose the dead soldiers among the patrols that descended, and used them to assassinate me Lu Chen at night. As a result, he lost his head, and the twenty-three crooked melons and cracked dates that were selected were also buried for him. It's all your doing! ”
Lu Chen gulped down the venison dipped in mustard juice and muttered to Zhen Yi.
Zhen Yao bit the chopsticks on the side and creaked, and he was so frightened that he collapsed.
Zhen Yi's face was pale, and he was completely speechless.
In fact, Zhen Yi has been waiting for Yuan Shao's reinforcements, and it stands to reason that the reinforcements will arrive in the afternoon, but the reinforcements have not arrived for a long time. He also felt that even if the reinforcements arrived, the Zhen family and Wuji County would not be able to exert their reinforcements under Lu Chen's control. In the afternoon, Lu Chen dropped most of the 200 tigers and 200 infantry to maintain law and order in the county, and there were fewer left in the Zhen family's mansion, so Zhen Yi had the courage to conspire with Zhang Pu, and spent a lot of money to select the dead among the patrols and servants, preparing to kill or capture Lu Chen at night, and then wait for the reinforcements to arrive and escort Lu Chen to Yuan Shao for reward.
"If the reinforcements are overdue, in fact, you should think about it more, why do you want to put me to death?" Lu Chen's knife cut the venison, knife after knife, and said slowly, "According to the distance, should the reinforcements arrive in the afternoon?" They didn't arrive, why? You just don't want to think about the reason? With your reckless IQ, you're embarrassed to find someone to assassinate me? ”
"Reinforcements, reinforcements......"
"Annihilation!" Lu Chen smiled, pulled out a spy report from the placket of his clothes and threw it to Zhen Yi. The spy report recorded in detail that 3,000 reinforcements were ambushed, more than 1,000 were annihilated, and more than 1,000 were captured.
"This, this...... No way, you don't have that many soldiers! Zhen Yi was paralyzed on the ground, his eyes empty. Now, what he did was all known to Lu Chen and could not be concealed.
"Don't worry! Lord Taishan, the reinforcements you want will not arrive, but tomorrow morning, it is estimated that a group of reinforcements will arrive, and there are quite a few people, a full 10,000 horses! Tsk......"
Lu Chen smiled.
Zhen Yi didn't understand what Lu Chen meant, but he was worried about whether Lu Chen would retaliate and whether he would do anything to the Zhen family.
Lu Chen said: "Don't worry, I won't kill the Zhen family, I didn't plan to do this in the first place." I won't kill you either, do you know why? Because the woman you were going to let Zhao Yun kill before is my wife! And you, the father of this woman! You don't deserve to be a father, but for her sake, I won't kill you! ”
Zhen Yi's face was like ashes, and he could no longer afford to resist.
Lu Chen didn't talk nonsense with Zhen Yi anymore, Lu Chen slept in the Zhen family's mansion that night, but he was in the same room with Zhen Mi. Although Lu Chen and Zhen Mi slept in the same room for the first time, there was no fragrant story, because ...... Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, and Lu Chen has a lot of things to do.
