Chapter Seventy-One: Zhou Xinghua Dies?
A day later, before Wu Yong and Xing Daorong arrived in the county seat, Zhou Xinghua died!
The cause was that he fell into the lake and drowned.
The means of the three major forces are even faster than imagined.
And Wu Yong and Xing Daorong also fled back to Rin City in the pursuit of Zhongyitang.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Qingyan had a gloomy face, listening to Wu Yong and Xing Daorong, who came back, to report.
"Princess, her subordinates are incompetent and have not had time to protect Zhou Junshou."
Wu Yong looked guilty.
"Nothing, we underestimated the enemy's means."
Chu Qingyan suppressed the anger in his heart and comforted Wu Yong and Xing Daorong.
The anger on Xing Daorong's face was obvious, "Princess, I suspect that someone is informing.
Otherwise, we just said that we would protect Zhou Junshou, and Zhou Junshou would have died immediately, the movements were too fast, and the people of Zhongyitang actually knew that Wu and I used our hidden whereabouts to chase and kill us all the way. ”
Chu Qingyan's beautiful face frowned slightly, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes, and his eyes looked at Wu Yong.
I saw Wu nodding with a sad and sigh, who would have wanted to be betrayed by his own people.
Seeing the expressions of the two, Chu Qingyan trusted the two a little more, and said gently:
"I'll give you an explanation for this matter, you go down and rest first."
"Yes, thank you, Princess."
Wu Yong and Xing Daorong glanced at each other and retreated.
Seeing the figures of the two leaving, Chu Qingyan looked into the empty room and said softly:
"Do you say that Wu Yong and Xing Daorong are credible?"
A middle-aged man in the back hall walked out slowly, Liang Wenyu, the strategist sent by the Zhenguo Mansion to assist Chu Qingyan some time ago, was secretly hidden by Chu Qingyan in the dark.
Liang Wenyu had just been observing Wu Yong and Xing Daorong's expressions from behind.
"It seems credible now." Liang Wenyu said slowly.
Chu Qingyan nodded silently, she sent Wu Yong and Xing Daorong to go, and there was another meaning, which was to find out whether Wu Yong and Xing Daorong were really loyal to herself.
"How is Zhou Junshou now?"
"He's hiding in the shadows now."
The two asked and answered, revealing a big secret.
Zhou Xinghua is not dead!
Liang Wenyu stroked his beard lightly, looking quite complacent.
As soon as he came to Huiyang County to assist Chu Qingyan, he had already expected that the three major forces would definitely make a move against Zhou Xinghua, and he had already joined forces with Zhou Xinghua to make a stand-in fake death!
"That's good." Chu Qingyan showed a trace of worry between his eyebrows.
Liang Wenyu saw Chu Qingyan's appearance and comforted:
"Second Miss, it's all worth it, it's a big taboo for the three major forces to attack and kill the county guards, in the future, other county guards and even the officials of the various prefectures in Lingzhou will have a potentially hostile attitude towards them, as long as our power in Lingzhou is greater in the future, they will tend to have more attitudes towards us, and the more favorable it will be to us in the future.
What we need now is to publicize the news that Zhou Xinghua was attacked and killed by the three major forces.
As soon as some young talents in Huiyang County come to Huiyang County, they will be hostile to the three major forces, and they will also be given priority to accept our recruitment.
Second, we can justify sending troops!
Liang Wenyu's eyes are particularly fierce, this is the real purpose of his letting Zhou Xinghua fake his death, there are many masters of the three major forces, and they are easy to suffer losses in small-scale battles, but if a big war really starts, the brave and good generals of the Zhenguo Mansion can press them to the ground and rub them.
After driving the three major forces out of Huiyang County, he will let Zhou Xinghua come back, and by that time, their prestige and strength will reach their peak, and they will continue to come with talents.
Chu Qingyan nodded slightly, this is also the plan she and Liang Wenyu discussed, once Zhou Xinghua is "dead", she can use the name of Zhou Xinghua being attacked and killed, and let Yang Zhaoping and Jiang Tiantian send troops to attack the city controlled by the three major forces.
Forced them out of Huiyang County step by step.
By the way, test Wu Yong and Xing Daorong, who joined the command halfway.
But Chu Qingyan's worries did not change, and she had a hunch that her plan was not so easy to implement.
Chu Qingyan unconsciously raised his head and looked in a direction, which was the direction of the capital city.
"Miss is worried about the King of Chu?"
Liang Wenyu saw Chu Qingyan's appearance, revealing a look of surprise.
"That's right, according to what I have lived by his side for a while, Li Yuan, the king of Chu, likes to be behind the yin people the most, one behind the surface, and one behind the other, is a character who does not see a rabbit and does not scatter an eagle, and yesterday came the news, it is said that he has recruited a great talent and is building momentum for him!"
When Chu Qingyan talked about Li Yuan, there was a hint of shame in her eyes, the enemies she dealt with were basically visible, and even if she lost, she would lose clearly, but Li Yuan knew that hiding behind her back and making small moves, you could win a little, but he would definitely not lose.
"Great talent, build momentum?"
Liang Wenyu thought about it carefully, and suddenly his face became bad, hearing Chu Qingyan say this, he had a vague image of the King of Chu, but why did the King of Chu rush to build momentum for a great talent at this time?
Liang Wenyu's mind flashed, and he suddenly woke up,
Unless the King of Chu wants him to hold an important position!
Where does this important position come from?
"Suffered!"
"What's wrong?"
Facing Chu Qingyan's inquiry, Liang Wenyu said with a serious face:
"The King of Chu probably guessed that Zhou Xinghua would die!"
Chu Qingyan's eyes shrank, and he could think of Li Yuan's next move in an instant,
"Are you saying that Li Yuan is likely to send someone to serve as the county warden of Huiyang County, so that the great talent will take the position!"
Liang Wenyu said in a deep voice:
"That's right, and this person is likely to be Lu Changming, the fellow governor of Lingyang Mansion!
Only Lu Changming is the most suitable, and Mo Ziyan can't come, because the king of Chu also needs him to stabilize the civil officials of the capital city, and then send someone to take over the Tongzhi, and after a while, the king of Chu will be able to take over the entire capital city smoothly.
And Lu Changming had cooperated with the Ximen family, so he had to agree to come. ”
After Liang Wenyu figured out the context, he instantly guessed who Li Yuan would send.
Chu Qingyan's face sank, she knew how much trouble Lu Changming would cause to her once he took up the post of county guard of Huiyang County.
Damn Li Yuan, I know Miss Kengben every day!
"Second Miss, we will now immediately inform Yang Zhaoping and Jiang Tiantian to implement it in advance according to the original plan, sneak attack tonight, and take the two cities before the King of Chu gives an order!"
Liang Wenyu made a decision immediately, and his eyes showed ruthlessness:
"Let's let the spies find out Lu Changming's whereabouts, deal with him, and don't let him arrive in Huiyang County!"
"Hmm!"
Chu Qingyan nodded slightly, then quickly left the house and immediately went to contact the two to prepare for action.
…………
Zhou Xinghua's death really caused a shock to all forces!
In Huiyang County, as Chu Qingyan sent people to secretly publicize, all the forces and the people knew that it was the three major forces that assassinated Zhou County.
Many neutral forces have shown jealousy and disgust for the three major forces.
In particular, Zhou Xinghua has served in Huiyang County for many years and has won a lot of people's hearts, and some young talents in Huiyang County hate the three major forces.
At this time, Chu Qingyan ascended to the top and shouted, they were likely to turn to Chu Qingyan because they hated the three major forces.
