Zhu Su and the two brothers glanced at each other, and Tang Shengzong and Lu Zhongheng suddenly appeared, which made the eyes of the three of them more playful.

This "brother" is even more interesting. These two have always been arrogant, even the sons of Lao Zhu, and the Tang and Lu families don't pay much attention to them. When did you call them "brothers" so passionately?

Even Zhu Fan, who has the thickest nerves, can see that these two old guys must be weak-hearted.

"Huh? How could the two Hou Masters be here? Zhu Su didn't pay attention to the "brother" of the two, but pretended to be surprised and looked around, and insisted on commensurate with the title. "There is no elegant scenery in this place, and this Zhuangzi looks like a bitter cold tight...... The two marquis did not stay in the big mansion of Ying Tianfu to be used, and this king really didn't expect to meet two of them here. ”

"Isn't it the two of you...... Are you here to remember the hardships of the past when you raised troops with your father, and to remember the bittersweet ones? ”

Zhu Su's words can be described as a gun and a stick, and he almost said that the two of them were plotting misdeeds here: after all, the court and the central government, who doesn't know that the two of them gave up their military power and were unwilling to serve the imperial court's plan to expand their territory, just so that they could use it for the rest of their lives?

Lu Tang's faces changed instantly.

However, the arrows that the forbidden army put on the bowstring have not yet been put down, and the atmosphere is even more tense, and the two of them also brought old soldiers in the past, so they naturally know that at this time, as long as the three people in front of them give an order, the two of them will become a hedgehog in an instant, and they dare not be tough. Tang Shengzong squeezed out a smile and said reluctantly: "Little Wu'er...... His Royal Highness laughed. This Zhuangzi is quite cool, and the two of us are just taking refuge in this Zhuangzi. ”

"Your Highness Fifth is out of the city here, why don't you go inside and drink a glass of water and wine? We also have something to say......"

It's autumn now, and even a three-year-old can't be deceived by talking about summer vacation. However, looking at their appearance, it seemed that they wanted to find a secluded place to discuss with Zhu Su and the others.

Zhu Su's eyes looked at Zhu Di and Zhu Fan, and both of them nodded when they felt Zhu Su's gaze. Zhu Di even said: "You go." I waited outside. ”

"If there is no movement after half an hour...... I'm self-accounting. ”

The three brothers had all fought in a difficult and dangerous battle array, and they had not yet reached the point of being afraid of a small Zhuangzi around this Gyeonggi village. is just a Zhuangzi, even if Lu Tang and the two have objections, those elite Zhou Wang guards can protect Zhu Su's thoughtfulness.

What's more, Lu Tang and the others just don't have outstanding foresight, but they are not stupid. If they hurt Zhu Su, the Fifth Highness, the two of them would be able to fall by themselves, okay?

There's no risk in going in and talking. Maybe we can solve this matter without blood.

Emperor Daming is close to the left of the capital, and if you can not use the sword soldiers, try not to move the sword soldiers.

Seeing that Zhu Su agreed to negotiate with them behind their backs, Lu and Tang were also greatly relieved. They welcomed Zhu Su and Zhu Su's guards into the gate of the village, and Zhu Su saw that there was no decoration in the village, but it was densely packed with high walls and deep houses, and it was obvious that it was not used to live in people.

Indeed, it was used to imprison people, and there is no doubt about it.

However, not far from the porter, there was still a hall for guests, and Lu Tang and the others led Zhu Su here to sit. Lu Zhongheng said: "This place is simple, there is nothing to entertain, come here, give Xiao Wu'er a cup of tea......"

Lu Zhongheng and Tang Shengzong were originally one of Lao Zhu's many righteous sons, so calling Zhu Su "Little Wu'er" was not a transgression.

Zhu Su pursed his lips in his heart, since he wanted to negotiate with the two, he didn't refute, only waved his hand to stop the steward who wanted to go down to pour tea: "Excuse me, since this place is simple, then it is best to go straight to the point and solve the matter as soon as possible." ”

"Two ...... I just want to ask, what do you mean by meddling in the slave trade business and trying to pull my Zhou Wangfu into the water through Ouyang Lun? ”

Zhu Su's face was not good-looking.

Tang Shengzong and Lu Zhongheng looked at each other, when they were outside just now, they had already seen Ouyang Lun, and they guessed that it was Ouyang Lun who brought Zhu Su and the others here, and some things could not be quibbled.

In the past few years, the momentum of the two Hou mansions has plummeted, and the front of the door has become increasingly cold, Rao is the two of them were arrogant and domineering masters in the past, but at this time, they have also learned to be a little more restrained.

He has not led troops in these years, Lu Zhongheng has been resurrected, but he has gained a little weight, and at this time, his face is full of misery, and he just squeezed out a little tear from his slender eyes: "Little Wu'er, you don......'t know the misery of my brother all these years."

"Over the years, my Ji'an Hou Mansion has fallen, and the upper position has cut off our way to meritorious service and reward, we have worked hard to support, but we still can't support a large number of people in the Nuo Dahou Mansion every day......

"We are martial artists who only know how to fight and kill, so how do you understand the abacus beads...... If you don't do this kind of business, how can you find a few jobs for your family? ”

Zhu Su looked at the two of them with a helpless look, and he was really tired in his heart. Cut off the way for you to be rewarded for your meritorious service? Didn't you give up the land that you had swallowed up and voluntarily renounced your military power and deeds to preserve the riches you had taken by cunning?

This time the words were out of the way, and Lao Zhu was blamed again.

"Although this business is not glamorous, it is not a big bad business." Tang Sheng Zongdao. "Xiao Wu'er, you also led troops in the north, I don't believe you don't know, there are many generals doing this."

"If they did it, why can't we? The higher authorities don't let us swallow up the people's land, and we have the patience to do some serious business, which is also intolerable? ”

"I also brought the forbidden army here...... Why, are you going to take us and exterminate our families? ”

"Don't mess around, this king only asks you, why do you want to lure Ouyang Lun and let him come to my Zhou Palace's way and pull my Zhou Palace's into the water?"

"Do you really think that the court doesn't know what your idea is?" Zhu Su was not easily led off the rhythm by them.

"Are you selling slaves or soldiers? Don't you know what the crime is to gather private soldiers? ”

If they are really as righteous as they say, how can they want to win over the royal family and add a layer of iron coupons to themselves to avoid death?

“…… Xiao Wu'er, don't you know, this business is not easy to do, those merchants in Fengmingzhou and Nanyang, they live far away, and they also need someone to protect their safety. We bought the captives so that the merchants would not be bullied in the Gentiles. Lu Zhongheng said. Since they are allowed to have a concession, they must be able to protect themselves, right? ”

"This can be regarded as our little contribution to the expansion of our Ming Dynasty."
