Chapter 1027: Wise Wu Tiju
He sent Lao Yu to instigate the Wanqi uncle and nephew to rebel. Now Lao Yu's head was sent to the Lu Mansion in a box, but He Lingchuan is still alive and well.
What does it mean?
Lu Qingan covered his face and said weakly: "Didn't I tell you not to attack the Yangshan Islands in an emergency! You also agreed!"
"I thought, since it's not us who did it, why can't someone help us get rid of He Lingchuan?" Lu Zhensheng's face was pale, "Who knew that the more than 600 people of Wanqi uncle and nephew, and the few seemingly arrogant bounty hunters of Beijia, took advantage of the hurricane to sneak attack He Lingchuan, but they didn't succeed?"
He sighed: "How badly did they do?"
"Wanqi Song uncle and nephew are famous, but none of us have seen them take action." Lu Qingan was uneasy, "Could it be that He Lingchuan has other troops under his command, and we don't know?"
The attendant picked out another letter from the cloth bag:
"Master, there is a letter."
The handwriting on the envelope was clear and handsome, and it said:
Lu Zhensheng personally.
The attendant spread the letter on the table, and the father and son leaned over to read it.
There was only a short line of words on the letter:
Gifts are exchanged, please look forward to it.
"What does this mean?" Lu Zhensheng was a little frightened and asked his eldest son, "What do you think this means?"
"Lu Mansion needs to strengthen patrols, and our family members must bring at least five guards when they go out." Lu Qingan calmed down, "Don't worry, if the surname He had the ability, he would have called us long ago, and he would not use heads to scare people. I will write a letter to reprimand him."
Lu Zhensheng paced back and forth for a few circles and was about to go out.
"Where are you going?"
Lu Zhensheng paused, hesitated, and said, "Do your thing, be careful." Then he strode away without looking back.
"..." Lu Qingan could guess what he was doing, and he couldn't stop him, so he had to order his men to deal with the heads.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the men came to report:
"A red bird flew up in the master's yard."
Lu Qingan couldn't help but press his forehead. The old man couldn't hold back and wrote a letter to the second son.
But the second son was far away on the front line of the western battlefield, what could he do?
He Lingchuan chopped off the heads of seven spies and sent them over, which was a strong warning. Lu Qingan originally had some plans for the Yangshan Islands, but now he had to put them aside for the time being.
It's not that he is afraid of trouble, but the war with the Ya Kingdom has exhausted him, and Bailie was hit hard by the hurricane and needed time to repair and recuperate. He also didn't have the energy to care about the Yangshan Islands.
Wait a little longer, there will always be a chance later.
He thought about it and issued a gag order, not allowing the servants to go out and privately pass on the brocade box and heads in the Lu Mansion.
"Violators will be beaten to death!"
At this moment, Yang Zhubu from the government office suddenly rushed over and asked him where the clan leader was when he saw him.
Seeing him running out of breath, Lu Qingan couldn't help but frown: "What's the matter? Why are you making such a fuss?"
"A letter from the State Master of Mou!"
"State Master of Mou?" Lu Qingan was startled, "Which one?"
"It's the State Master of Wang Guo!" Yang Zhubu took out a silver letter, "The State Master of Wang Guo sent a letter to the government office, specifying that it be delivered to the Lord of Bailie."
...
Soon, Zhao Qianshi of the Maritime Customs Office hurriedly knocked on his boss's office door.
Without waiting for Wu Tiju to ask, he said in one breath:
"The Lu Mansion received seven heads, which were suddenly placed in Lu Zhensheng's room in the middle of the night and were not discovered until dawn. It is said that they were all spies sent by the Lu family to the Yangshan Islands!"
Wu Tiju was drinking water, and his hand trembled when he heard this: "Where did you hear this 'it is said'?"
"It is rumored outside that it has been spread all the way from Qucheng."
Wu Tiju was stunned for a long time before slowly leaning back in his chair, with a look of disappointment on his face: "The Lu family is really useless."
He originally hoped that the Lu family could empty the Yangshan Islands, or come up with some good ideas to deal with He Lingchuan, and avenge himself by the way.
Although Bailie is recognized as the "weakest" among the surrounding countries, strength and weakness are always relative, and it is commonly said that it depends on who you compare with.
Bailie's previous opponents were countries and regions, so it was weak; against He Lingchuan alone, it should be sure of victory and easy to control.
Why did Bailie lose again?
Wu Tiju was not stupid. Such reliable news must have been released by Yangshan Islands themselves.
Otherwise, who would know that those heads were Bailie's spies?
No matter how bad Bailie was, Lu Mansion was also protected by guards and magic arrays. Yangshan Islands could quietly put seven heads on Lu Zhensheng's table, so wouldn't it be easy to cut off the head of old man Lu at night?
The implicit threat of this secret delivery of heads was too obvious.
However, it also showed from the side that the actions of Lu's father and son really angered He Lingchuan.
The Lu family is really half-baked. To deal with people like He Lingchuan, either do it in one go or don't provoke him again.
Wu Tiju chose the latter himself, and felt very wise at this time.
Zhao Chenshi waited for a long time, but didn't hear his instructions, so he had to ask: "Do you want to pass the message to...?"
"What are you thinking?" Wu Tiju said slowly, "Do you want to trouble Concubine Yu with such trivial matters?"
The last time he wrote a letter to the capital, Concubine Yu really didn't reply.
She finally forgot about this matter, why remind her again?
Zhao Chenshi hurriedly said: "No, no, you are right!"
Wu Tiju glanced at him: "What did I say? What did I say right?"
Zhao Chenshi laughed awkwardly and was about to leave when the clerk of the Maritime Customs suddenly ran in and handed a letter to Wu Tiju with both hands.
"Sir, there is a letter from the capital."
"Oh?" Wu Tiju put down his cup, received the letter and waved away the clerk.
Concubine Yu has written again? Shouldn't he be remembering the Qingyu that was dragged down by the Yin Mo again?
Wu Tiju opened the letter with his own hands, took out the golden paper inside and read it through. His eyes widened and his expression became strange.
The change in his expression made Zhao Qianshi feel nervous.
Could it be that Concubine Yu came to accuse me again? It's not easy for Wu Tiju to sit in this position.
There were only a few sentences in the letter, but Wu Tiju read it word for word several times to make sure he understood the spirit, and then coughed lightly:
"From now on, He Lingchuan, the owner of Yangshan Island, will be our guest; the Shipping Department of Blade Port City will work closely with Yangshan Islands in the future to achieve win-win results."
This turn was so sharp that Zhao Qianshi was confused for a moment and asked carefully: "Is this, is this a letter from Concubine Yu?"
For Concubine Yu to suddenly give such an order is as incredible as Wu Tiju giving him a hundred acres of irrigated land for free.
"The Imperial Master of King Mou sent an autographed letter to Concubine Yu." Wu Tiju didn't know the specific content. "Then Concubine Yu sent me this instruction. Did you hear it? Since Concubine Yu has requested it, in the future This is what we do! We must be resolute and implement it thoroughly, and we must not be careless!”
This is an order. Whatever the superiors want him to do, he will do it!
