"Hahaha......"

After listening to Wu Yong's explanation of how he tricked Li Ziqian into selling the iron mill, Zhu Long couldn't help laughing.

Wu Yong is too yin!

He and Lu Fang pretended to be merchants to purchase fine iron, deliberately let Li Ziqian hear it, and claimed to be the rebellious Fang La's subordinates, tempting him to trade with heavy profits. At a critical moment, Li Yun and his people appeared, and Li Ziqian, who was so frightened that he thought it was a ghost in his heart, and fled in a hurry with them, and then "encountered" Li Wang......

However, with Zhu Long's advice, he did a good job and gave Li Ziqian enough compensation......

These are not things that Zhu Long cares about, even Wu Yongyu reported that Lei Heng killed Bai Xiuying and was in prison, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

It's just that Wu Yong wants to save Lei Heng, one values his martial arts and ability, and when the other robbery of the Birthday Gang is revealed, Lei Heng also deliberately lets them go, which can be regarded as owing a favor.

Zhu Long has no opinion, it is always a good thing to have many fierce generals under his command.

Although Lei Heng is not a good person, he has never done anything evil. He is mixed in the big dye vat of the yamen, and the moral requirements must not be too high, otherwise he will not be able to mix. As long as it is not a scumbag like Li Li, Zhang Heng, and Sun Erniang, Zhu Long can accept it.

A person who does great things must be broad-minded, he needs to be a minister and a fierce man to fight the world for him, ability is in the first place, and he can't be too demanding on character and morality, anyway, he is not picking a son-in-law.

He only cares about one thing right now - building plate armor.

Li Wang had already taken over the King Kong Iron Workshop, where he was in charge of the management, and became the nominal owner - Zhu Long didn't want outsiders to know about the relationship between the Iron Workshop and Zhujiazhuang.

Hydraulic forging hammer is not a short time to build, need to dig ditches, water diversion, installation, now the weather is hot, the progress of the project is slow, no three or five months is not good, before that, can only be manually hammer forging.

For half a month, nothing major happened. Daily trivial matters, their own Wu is only organized.

So I wish the dragon to be idle, practice martial arts diligently in the morning and evening, and study the war strategy during the day, and the days are both idle and fulfilling.

But on this day, Shi Xiu suddenly came to report a news: Song Jiang was going to be beheaded after the autumn!

Zhu Long felt unreasonable and asked, "Shouldn't an anti-thief leader like him be escorted to Tokyo?" ”

Shi Xiu nodded and said: "Originally, I was going to be escorted to Tokyo, but the imperial court was worried that the road would be unquiet and Song Jiang would be robbed by his accomplices, so the imperial court issued an order and beheaded him in Dongping Mansion!" ”

"Oh, that's it—it seems that the court still has some points in mind. What about Li Ying and Duchenne? ”

"The verdict has not yet been decided, I have already made a point up and down, hoping to be lightly dismissed!"

Zhu Long said with a smile: "After the distribution, on the road, we can just rob him, what's the point of never taking it lightly?" ”

Shi Xiu shook his head and said helplessly: "I also said this to Master Li, but he flatly refused, and he still wanted to come out and be a good citizen in the future." ”

Zhu Long felt a little guilty in his heart, if it weren't for him and Wu Yong instructing Dong Ping, how could Li Ying end up like this.

After being silent for a while, he asked, "What about Guo Sheng, Mu Chun, and Xue Yong?" Have a clue about them? ”

"They fled all the way south, and now they are in Mangdang Mountain, mingling with the robbers there. I'm planning to pick some elite brothers to go over and break down the cottage and kill them. Shi Xiu looked ashamed.

"Mangdang Mountain?" Zhu Long suddenly remembered, didn't Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon just fall into the grass there?

It turns out that they are mixed together!

Zhu Long smiled, it was really providence in the dark.

He waved his hand at Shi Xiu and said, "No need, Mangdang Mountain is far away in Shanzhou, more than 400 miles away, so you can't afford to spend a lot of time on a few small fish and shrimp......"

While they were talking, the guards outside the door reported that Mrs. Li asked to see her.

Both of them were a little puzzled, Shi Xiu got up to say goodbye, Zhu Long shook his head and asked him to sit down.

Mrs. Li walked with light steps, came to Zhu Long, bent her knees sideways, and made a great blessing.

Zhu Long got up, his palm was empty, and he said solemnly: "Mrs. Li, please take a seat!" ”

"Thank you Uncle Shi for working tirelessly for my lord and running around." She gave Shi Xiu another blessing.

Shi Xiu hurriedly got up and saluted back, and said, "It's all what the little brother should do!" ”

After the three of them sat down, Zhu Long Zhengse asked, "Mrs. Li is here, what are your orders?" ”

Mrs. Li said: "Thanks to the big officials, the slave family has been disturbing your village for a long time, and I feel deeply uneasy, and I miss my family, so I resign to the big officials!" ”

Zhu Long said apologetically: "Since Mrs. came to Yuanzhuang, I haven't visited and inquired yet, so I'm really lazy!" Please forgive me for the poor hospitality!

The charge of colluding with the thief has been confirmed, and the government will not let you family members go. If there is any inconvenience, after a while, I will build a house for you in Zhujia Village. ”

"Thank you for your kindness!" Mrs. Li sighed and said, "The slave family is just worried that the old garden is deserted, the birds build nests, and the rabbits are running around, and when I think of this, I feel uncomfortable!" ”

"Madame, don't worry, I have left a hundred brothers to guard your village, and there is a steward to clean and maintain it. If Mrs. Li is still not at ease, I will go to Lijiazhuang early tomorrow morning to check it out. ”

"The big officials help the needy, the righteousness is thin and the sky is thin, and the slave family feels deeply virtuous. If there are no big officials, the slave family is a woman's family, and they drag such a large family of dozens of people, they don't know what to do! Mrs. Li was very grateful, and looked at Zhu Long with a pair of watery eyes, and he couldn't help but have a little heart pounding.

But after all, he is a powerful actor, and his expression is more and more calm and solemn.

Mrs. Li and Shi Xiu left one after another, and Zhu Long breathed a long sigh of relief, this Mrs. Li is really a terrible vixen!

However, he didn't have other ideas, after all, she was Li Ying's wife, and the so-called gentleman was lustful, and he took it in a good way! Although he is not a righteous man, he also has principles and bottom lines in his life and work.

The next day, as soon as the sky was dark, Zhu Long got up.

After washing and eating something to fill my stomach, I was ready to set off and head to Lijiazhuang. Lu Fang was already waiting at the front gate of Zhuangzi with a team of cavalry.

"I wish you all the best!" Mrs. Lee suddenly appeared.

Zhu Long wondered, "Mrs. Li, who are you?" ”

"The slave family wants to go home and get some clothes and some small items." Mrs. Li's pleading eyes looked at Zhu Long with a blank look, looking like a little woman.

"Okay!" Zhu Long reluctantly agreed, called a carriage, took Mrs. Li, and went to Lijiazhuang together.

Zhujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang are more than 30 miles apart, and at eight o'clock, Zhulong and they arrived at Lijiazhuang.

Mrs. Li got out of the carriage and saw the familiar home, filled with joy and sorrow, and shed tears of excitement.

She hurriedly ran to the villa, and Zhu Long was worried about her safety and hurriedly followed.

Lijiazhuang is completely different from Zhujiazhuang.

Zhujiazhuang is like a military fortress, the city wall is high and strong, and the houses in Zhuangzi are also lined up one after another, with barracks, martial arts arenas, stables, arsenals, and grain depots, all in good order.

And Lijiazhuang is like a garden, pavilions, water pavilions, courtyards and pavilions, no wonder Mrs. Li misses home.

The courtyard is a little deep, but empty, and it looks a little desolate and lonely.

Zhu Long followed Mrs. Li to a courtyard, which was full of flowers and plants, green trees, green bricks and tiles, and cool and pleasant.

Mrs. Li came to the front of the hut and pushed the door in, and Zhu Long also followed, but saw the red Luo pink tent, which turned out to be her boudoir.

Zhu Long was embarrassed and was about to go out, but Mrs. Li said shyly: "If the officials are tired, sit down for a while!" ”

Well?

He was about to refuse, but the ghost in his mouth said, "This leg is a little sore—"

Then with a thick old face, he sat on a chair and pretended to beat his thighs twice.
