Chapter 119: Lucky General
The two soldiers glanced at each other, and at the same time let go of the hand holding Lian Jin, Lian Jin's body shook for a while, and he went downstairs with steady steps.
The cells below were not as dirty as the upper floors, nor as big as the ones above, though the stench in the air was still there, and the light was still so dim.
After putting Lian Jin in a solitary cell, Qi Ting watched the jailer lock the door tightly and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Lian Jin's voice sound--
"General Qi, tell Tian Xiang for me that my position has changed, and if he trusts me, it will be good for the Qi Congress."
Qi Ting stopped when he heard this, looked back quietly, and saw Lian Jin sitting in a corner of the cell, his eyes looking directly at him without hesitation.
Qi Ting didn't speak again, turned around and left.

Zishui Wharf.
Kunhu patted the foreman on the shoulder, a satisfied smile on his face.
The foreman smiled flatteringly, then pulled over a laborer who was moving goods, changed his face, and commanded arrogantly: "Go and call the leaders of all the small groups of laborers, I have something to command, go quickly!" ”
The laborer was stopped by the foreman, and was very panicked, but he glanced at the foreman in surprise when he heard this, and then he answered sullenly, and turned around to find someone with the goods.
"Oh, you fool, put things down and go again, resist the box and prepare to find dawn?"
The laborer staggered under his feet, hurriedly put the goods on his shoulders on the ground, and then hurriedly pulled his legs and ran away to find someone.
After a while, several unrecognizable laborers approached the foreman, including Fukuyama.
Fukuyama glanced at Kunhu standing beside the foreman suspiciously, Kunhu felt his gaze and glanced at him, his gaze was unwavering, like looking at a passerby.
Fukuyama shrugged his nose and turned his puzzled gaze back to the foreman.
The foreman cleared his throat and said in a tune, "Do you know what you were called for?" ”
Several leaders glanced at each other, but none of them spoke.
Only Fukuyama said flatteringly: "Looking at the look of the leader, is there anything good?" ”
The foreman was very satisfied with Fushan's reaction, and said in a loud voice: "This Kunhu Kun uncle next to me has been valued by the third son of the Qi family and has entered the Qi Mansion to be the commander of the guard!" Uncle Kun is affectionate and righteous, he is developed, and he does not forget to help his brothers, so you miscellaneous are blessed, Uncle Kun is ready to select a few capable ones among all the brothers to enter the Qi Mansion together and serve the third prince of Qi! ”
As soon as the foreman's words came out, several leaders immediately looked at Kunhu in surprise, and Kunhu nodded at them in acquiescence.
These leaders are all among the few forces in the dock laborers, while Kunhu used to not mix in small groups, with a few brothers, always taking care of those who are vulnerable, and has always been at odds with these leaders.
Several leaders exchanged glances with each other, and one of the leaders hurriedly asked, "Kun, Uncle Kun, I don't know which Qi Mansion the uncle entered?" ”
Before Kunhu could speak, the foreman took the lead with honor: "Needless to say, it is naturally the mansion of the Tang Marquis Qi, in addition to the Tang Marquis Mansion, who else dares to call the Qi Mansion in this Linzi City?" ”
The other leader also changed his face to flattery, and asked: "So, the third prince of Qi is the third prince of Qi who is rumored to be the one who proposed the field system and can be the prime minister of Qi in the future?" ”
The foreman said proudly: "Isn't it, it's the third son of Qi who is rumored to be ashamed of himself and can't wait to entrust the position of prime minister to himself!" ”
As soon as the foreman spoke, the leaders suddenly became calm, and all of them showed eager looks on their faces, looking at Kunhu expectantly.
Kunhu frowned, and there was a look of concern in his eyes.
This rumor has always been heard by him in the next few days.
Fukuyama asked appropriately, "I don't know how many people Uncle Kun plans to recruit among the brothers?" ”
The foreman couldn't answer for Kunhu, and turned his head to Kunhu expectantly.
Kunhu bowed slightly, and said concisely: "Thirty people! ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of several leaders showed joy, obviously thinking that they were quite sure.
The foreman also looked happy, and said with a smile: "Uncle Kun just ordered, tonight Uncle Kun has a treat, set up a farewell banquet, you call all the brothers, the location is set in the Shenzi warehouse, that piece is empty tonight, Uncle Kun will personally select strong brothers to enter the Qi Mansion in the banquet!" ”
One of the leaders couldn't wait to ask, "Uncle Kun, what about us?" ”
Kun Hu bowed his head and said: "If you perform well, you will enter!" ”
The faces of the leaders suddenly appeared in ecstasy, and Fukuyama also looked happy, but he was secretly thinking about it in his heart.

…
Qi Ting hurriedly came to Xiangguotang and saw Tian Dan.
The de facto "king" of the Qi State, who held the supreme authority, was calmly sitting behind the bookcase at the moment and looking at the file.
Qi Ting walked in the door after being reported, and he saw stacks of files piled up next to the bookcase, all piled up on the ground.
As if hearing the footsteps entering the door, Tian Dan flipped through the bamboo slips in his hand and said, "Found someone so soon?" ”
Qi Tingyu reported: "Yes, Tian Xiang, Zhaojianzhai's little apprentice Lian Jin has been arrested!" ”
Tian Dan finally raised his head, his eyes as sharp as an eagle falcon looked directly at Qi Ting, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me the details of the situation!" ”
Qi Ting answered yes, stepped forward, and explained all the processes and suspicions in the process of arresting Lian Jin to being put in prison, and expressed his suspicions that there was a conspiracy in it.
"Tian Xiang, in this package, it is the soft armor that Lian Jin took the initiative to offer."
After Qi Ting finished speaking, he put the package he had been carrying in his hand on the bookcase in front of Tian Dan.
Tian Dan didn't touch the package, and said: "Your worry is necessary, I will consider this matter carefully, that Lian Jin, you might as well dry him for two days first, so that he can sober up in prison." ”
Qi Ting said respectfully: "Yes, Tian Xiang, in addition, there is another matter for his subordinates to report!" ”
Tian Dan nodded and said, "Say it!" ”
Qi Ting said that Lu Yunzhou had discovered the Blood Swallow, and told Lu Yunzhou's plan.
After saying this, Tian Dan also frowned, and the alarm bell in his heart was loud, he didn't expect that Xueyan's people were so powerful, and even Mrs. Lan's subordinates had installed their people, and the dangerous information revealed in it had to make Tian Dan extremely vigilant.
But--
Following the last Shen Chi assassination, Lu Yunzhou single-handedly found out the major conspiracy of the blood swallow, and in just a few days, did he actually catch the blood swallow's little tail again?
Going out for a ride at night and bumping into it?
Tian Dan's heart had a ridiculous feeling, and he shook his head and sighed: "Qi Ting, your younger brother is a lucky general, and he can always do amazing things!" If this operation is successful, he will be rewarded well! ”
