Chapter 498: Mrs. Lu

Shi Pengbin, the head of Liaoxi County, escaped and has not been apprehended until now. Wang Yulong and others who temporarily took charge of Liaoxi City were all from a group of big-headed soldiers and knew nothing about paperwork. Nowadays, all kinds of official affairs in Liaoxi are piled up like a mountain. Gao Yuan, who was immersed in various official duties, really regretted leaving the Jiang family in Fufeng. If he were here, he wouldn't have to work so hard.

After finally finishing the last official document, Gao Yuan let out a long breath, stretched his body, and raised his head. Only then did he realize that at some point, the guards had lit all the lamps and he was concentrating. I was doing official business and didn't even notice. This is really hard work! Gao Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Rubbing his wrists and walking out of the room, Gao Yuan saw the infantry outside the door. Seeing that he was fully armed, he was actually guarding Gao Yuan.

"Why are you here?" Gao Yuan walked over with a smile, "Is everything okay in the camp?"

"Wherever He Lanxiong is, what can happen?" said the infantryman: "I don't feel at ease here, General. Although Liaoxi City is surrendered now, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. Maybe there are some ulterior motives. The guy is hiding in the dark. The general came lightly this time, and none of the personal guards followed him. Since Tie Xuan and Ding Wei came down to lead the troops, you have not appointed any more personal guards. I can't say, I can only come in person. I’m standing guard for you!”

Gao Yuan laughed, "Even if some assassin wants to plot against me, can't he still be my opponent? My hands are itching!"

"General, this idea of ​​yours is unacceptable!" the infantryman said sternly: "Assassins will fight against you with open swords and spears in assassinations. Naturally, they will use all possible means. If these guys are armed with crossbows. You Are you sure you can avoid the flashes of lightning? Therefore, the personal guards must be selected as soon as possible, and the guard battalion must be reorganized."

Gao Yuan shook his head, "You guy. It seems that you have been with Jiang Jiaquan for a while. You are deeply influenced by him!"

"Chiang Chang-shi has a lot of principles, most of which I don't understand. But there is one thing that suits me deeply. Now the well-being of millions of people depends on the general. The general is no longer the glory he once was. You are a fool. The best choice for a gentleman is to nip everything that is detrimental to the general in the cradle without erecting a dangerous wall."

Seeing the guy in front of him, who couldn't even recognize big characters before, actually dropped his schoolbag with him, Gao Yuan couldn't help crying or laughing, but he also realized it. As his strength increases day by day, the vision and knowledge of his generals are also increasing day by day. I'm afraid it needs to be re-examined.

"Okay, let's do this as you said. We will take care of it after we get back. But since you are acting as a guard now, then come out with me." Gao Yuan waved.

"The general is going out, where are he going?"

"I'm going to meet Aunt Lu!" Gao Yuan's eyes suddenly cast a layer of gloom.

Over the years, she has been dependent on Uncle Lu. Now that Uncle Lu is gone, I wonder how she is doing?

"Yes, I'll call the guards right away!" the infantryman said.

"By the way, call Tianci and let him go with us." Gao Yuan suddenly remembered something and said to the infantry.

"Godsend, he is very busy today." The infantryman said, "I don't know if we can find his people right away."

"Who said I can't find my people!" As soon as the infantryman finished speaking, Cao Tianci started running in a hurry. A faint smell of blood came from him. Gao Yuan couldn't help but frowned, "Killing people." ?”

"Yes, I have been busy catching mice all day long! Some ignorant mice still want to resist, so of course they will be killed without mercy!" Cao Tianci said nonchalantly.

"Who are they?"

"Yan Lingwei guys. All the people whose identities have been disclosed in Yan Lingwei's branch in Liaoxi City have run away, but there are still a lot of nails buried in Liaoxi City. How can I tolerate them doing things in Liaoxi City?" Gao Xi!" Cao Tianci said.

"How do you know their situation so clearly?" Gao Yuan looked at him strangely, "I don't think our wolves have this ability now."

Cao Tianci blushed, "Most of the information comes from the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of Zhao State, and a small part of it was dug out by our own people."

"Feng Fayong came to Liaoxi City again?" Gao Yuan's eyes widened.

"Yes, but this time he helped me a lot." Cao Tianci said with a smile.

Gao Yuan looked at him angrily and funny, "There is no free lunch in this world. How could he help you in vain? You have forgotten about Zhongli. If Jiang Changshi hadn't handled it in time, you would have given me more." big trouble."

Cao Tianci couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "But the information he provided this time is very accurate. If it can be used, of course it will be used."

"Okay, I understand. All those captured Yan Lingwei secret sentries are expelled from Liaoxi. In addition, starting from tomorrow, don't be polite to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. They will not move on the surface, but secretly I caught all those guys," Gao Yuan said.

Cao Tianci was stunned, but he understood in a blink of an eye, "Yes, these Hupao Cavalry guys know the spies of Yan Lingwei, so if we use these captured Yan Lingwei to catch the Hubao Cavalry, we will get twice the result with half the effort." "

"Feng Fayong is a bit unscrupulous because of his friendship with us. I really don't want to do anything to him, but there is no need to be polite to those hidden tiger and leopard riders!" Gao Yuan sneered. "Liaoxi City is not their paradise."

Putting aside this episode, Gao Yuan and his party rushed to Lu Hong's home in Liaoxi City.

Since Lu Hong acquired the shares of Wu Kai Liquor Industry, he has accumulated more money in his pocket. The new home he built in Liaoxi City can be described as beautiful and beautiful. Not only is the land large, but even the decoration is first-class. I'm afraid it can't even compare to the county governor's office. Zhang Shouyue is much richer than Lu Hong, but his money needs to be used to raise soldiers and train a large group of officials, while Lu Hong only needs to support himself.

It's just that the luxurious house in front of him is now plunged into darkness. The two white lanterns hanging at the door are particularly conspicuous, and the whole house looks a bit gloomy.

Cao Tianci walked up the steps and wanted to call the door, but Gao Yuan stopped him, "Tianci, I will do it myself."

Walking to the door with some heavy steps, he stretched out his hand and knocked on the copper door knocker.

After a while, the door was opened a crack, and a man came out with half of his face exposed. "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm Gao Yuan, I want to see Mrs. Lu!" Gao Yuan said to him.

The man's face stiffened for a moment, and then he began to back up. Gao Yuan outside the door heard the rapid footsteps, and it was obvious that the guy was rushing in to report the news.

Shaking his head, Gao Yuan pushed open the ajar door and walked in with the infantry and Cao Tianci.

After a while, an old man dressed all in white came hurriedly.

"Steward Lu!" Gao Yuan greeted him and shouted.

"General Gao, you are here!" Lu Bin's words were full of sadness. "You're finally here."

"Auntie, is she okay?"

"I just cry every day!" Lu Bin said helplessly, "I can't persuade him. It would be great if you came. You can persuade the old lady properly. The master has gone, and the madam must take care of herself."

Gao Yuan nodded, "Take me to see my aunt!"

Mrs. Lu was lying on the bed sickly. Even under the dim light, it could be seen that her face was pale and her shoulders were thin, but she was still the plump and blessed Mrs. Lu in the distant image.

"Aunt, I'm here to see you!" Gao Yuan walked to Mrs. Lu, bowed and greeted her.

Mrs. Lu, who was leaning on the girl's arms, saw Gao Yuan and her tears came down again, "Gao Yuan, your Uncle Lu is gone. No more. He died unjustly. You have to avenge him and avenge him!" Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand and grabbed Gao Yuan tightly.

Gao Yuan leaned over and sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to hold Mrs. Lu's bony hands, "Aunt, don't worry. The culprits Zhang Junbao, Zhang Zhuo, and Wu Yi have now fallen into my hands. I also have Peng Bin who ran away. Qiong Bi fell into hell and caught him at the meeting. I will never let my uncle die in vain. I will kill all these people."

"Thank you, Gao Yuan, your uncle did not take care of you in vain." Mrs. Lu cried even more sadly.

"Auntie, you can't do this to yourself. I have sent people to Bixiu Peak to bring back the bodies of uncle and the others. When uncle comes back, you will be the ones to preside over it. Uncle has already gone, so you have to take care of yourself. No matter how good it is, no matter what, you have to think about Brother Lu Chao and don't let him worry too much about you." Gao Yuan comforted softly.

"Chao'er, Chao'er will never see his father again!" Mrs. Lu cried out sadly again.

"Auntie, I will send Zhang Zhuo, the murderer of my uncle, to Brother Lu Chao so that he can take revenge with his own hands." Gao Yuan said, "Don't worry, I won't let my brother have any regrets."

"Thank you, Gao Yuan, for your thoughtfulness. I thank you for Chao'er."

"Uncle Lu has taken care of me for so many years. This is what I should do." Gao Yuan said softly: "Aunt, after you finish handling uncle's funeral affairs, you should go back to Fufeng to live. The neighbors there are familiar with each other. With so many neighbors here, you can be happy."

"Back to Fufeng?" Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "I won't go. Your uncle and I have lived there for decades. There are his things everywhere in that old house. Wherever we go, I It will be even more sad.”

"Then you will always live here? I will leave Liaoxi City and go back soon. Even though we are far apart, I can't take better care of you." Gao Yuan said softly.

"No, I don't want to stay in Liaoxi City anymore, nor do I want to go back to Fufeng. Gao Yuan, Auntie, I want to ask you something. Don't you want to send someone to escort the murderer to Chao'er? Just let me go with you. I'm going to find Chao'er, I don't want to stay in Liaoxi anymore, I want to leave here far away."
