Jin'an Emperor

Chapter 66 Ambition

Lu Qiang's feet have been busy these days. The two little girl Chunlan and Dongmei looked very distressed and saw Lu Qiang return to the study alone. The two ladies came in with washing water and small bean soup in the deep well.

The slight footsteps of the two ladies still woke up Lu Qiang in meditation. Before she could speak, Chunlan had grabbed her body and wiped Lu Qiang's face with a towel.

It has become a habit for the two to serve Lu Qiang before, but Wang Shenai is no longer there, but Lu Qiang is a little unaccustomed to it, but he knows the temperament of these two girl. If he refuses, he may scare them.

took the towel, casually wiped it twice on his face, and handed it back to her. He smiled and said, "I'm too busy these days to take care of you. How about it? Are you used to living here?"

Dongmei waited for Lu Qiang's hand to come out and quickly handed over the bean soup: "Master, drink it quickly. I added sugar!"

This is a pure green drink, and Lu Qiang is really a little thirsty. He took it and drank it.

Since Lu Qiang took the towel from her hand, Chunlan pouted, bit her lips and whispered, "Doesn't the master like us anymore?"

Lu Qiang couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled, "What are you thinking in your little head? When did I say I didn't like you?

"Why doesn't the master want us to serve?"

What are they really afraid of? They asked anything. In the past, when they were in the palace, there was Wang Shenai by their side. They served themselves to bathe, and they didn't feel anything. But now it's different. Can two young girls, a physically and mentally healthy man, make him wash freely?

Lu Qiang didn't want to protect himself for Wang Shenai, but Wang Shenai had just passed away for several months, and he was too busy to make friends. In that regard, he was not in the mood to accept other women.

And Chunlan's idea is also very simple. Although they have long believed that they are the masters, they will not take the initiative to sacrifice themselves. However, they feel that it is reasonable to serve the master. If the master does not want them to serve them, that is, they dislike them and dislike them.

The two girls have gone through hardships and their hearts are very **.

Lu Qiang didn't know how to explain it to them. He pondered for a moment before saying, "When I see you, I will always unconsciously think of Yurun. Let's wait for a while!" Maybe I'll be fine after a while."

When it comes to Wang Shenai, not only Lu Qiang was sad, but the two girls had nothing to say, and their eyes turned red unconsciously.

Chunlan suddenly bent down and knelt at Lu Qiang's feet: "It's all bad for slaves and maidservants, which makes the master sad"

Lu Qiang quickly pulled her up: "Remember, you are my relatives, and you are not allowed to be slaves in the future. If you call me that again, I really don't like you."

What is a slave? Slaves and maidservants are the private property of the owner. Chunlan's former owner was Lu Qiang's wife, so they naturally became Lu Qiang's private property.

This private property has more meanings, such as serving the bed. The two girls are young and the master is so heroic. If they don't have any other ideas, it is obviously impossible.

But both girls are also smart and know that they can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

But I heard the master say, "I have always had an idea to build a tomb for Yurun, but it's not the right time, but I can find someone to draw a portrait for her and worship it here. We can also have a place to sacrifice. This matter is up to you, the sooner the better. ”

Although the painter doesn't know what Wang Shenai looks like, he can always draw a rough idea by collecting the descriptions of the three of them.

"Don't worry, we'll do it now"

The two girls were knocked out, and Lu Qiang's mind was not ready to be recovered from Wang Shen's love.

"Yurun, don't blame me. After I return to Jiankang, I will definitely build a beautiful ancestral hall for you and enjoy the fragrance of the world in all seasons."

Suddenly, I heard a report from the soldiers outside the door that a man surnamed Jiang outside the government office asked for a meeting and said that he was an old friend of the adult.

The deceased surnamed Jiang?

Lu Qiang knows a limited number of people in this era. When he heard about his old friend Jiang, he suddenly remembered the Jiang brothers who had saved him.

Although I didn't know it was one of the two brothers, I still got up immediately and greeted him. Wouldn't it be too rude if the savior came and he was still sitting in the room? It's easy for people to poke the backbone.

Now there are not many people who can welcome Lord Assassin in person. The soldiers are very strange. Even the people who came did not expect that Lu Qiang would welcome him in person.

It is Jiang Xiaoyu.

"It turned out to be the little fish brother, haha! What brings you here? Please come in"

Lu Qiang's enthusiasm made Jiang Xiaoyu a little flattered. He didn't even have the opportunity to give a gift, so he was dragged into the government office by Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang did this to him, of course, because his brother saved him and his mother helped take care of the two maids.

Jiang Xiaoyu crosses the river and does nothing. He has always been at par with the government. However, if he can take the right path, who would like to be a thief?

After hearing that Lu Qiang had occupied Jiangling, Jiang's mother immediately ordered her son to come to defect, for nothing else, but to have a good background in the future and let future generations get rid of the reputation of water thieves.

Jiang Xiaoyu also came with a try attitude, but he didn't expect Lu Qiang to be so enthusiastic that he suddenly felt that it was not in vain.

In fact, Lu Qiang is so enthusiastic about him for no other reason. It suddenly occurred to him that this buddy must have good water quality across the river. Didn't he always want to vigorously develop the navy? This is a door-to-door helper. I just don't know what he thinks. Let's try it first!

After the two came to the council chamber and ordered someone to bring tea to Jiang Xiaoyu, Lu Qiang simply asked about his mother's health, then asked about Jiang Dalong's recent situation, and then said, "Why does Brother Jiang have time to come to Jiangling? But what's the matter?"

Lu Qiang's enthusiasm undoubtedly gave Jiang Xiaoyu the greatest courage. He got up and held his fist and said, "Your kindness, Xiaoyu wants to work for the adult and be a pawn. I don't know if you are willing to take him in?"

It turns out that you really come to rely on yourself, which will save you much more trouble.

Everyone has been familiar with it for a long time, and there are still several layers of relationships in it. They nodded and said directly, "It's best for the little fish brother to help me, but if you only let the little fish brother be a pawn, isn't it a big talent and a small use? In this way, I will first appoint you as the head of the sailor and get the sailor up as soon as possible. What do you think of the little fish brothers?

The sailor commander?

Jiang Xiaoyu was stunned. Although he didn't know what kind of official he was, he was obviously in charge of the army. I used to be making a living on the water. After becoming this leader, can't I give full play to my strengths? And Lord Assassin doesn't care about his former origin at all.

Surprised, he turned over and knelt down: "Adult, don't worry, the little fish is willing to serve the death of adults"

Lu Qiang pulled up Jiang Xiaoyu with a smile and said, "It's not that serious. Jiangling is now waiting to be abandoned, and there are only a dozen warships, and the war is about to start, so your task is also very difficult!"

Jiang Xiaoyu pondered for a moment and said, "There are still some brothers in Guangling who are begging for life on the water. If adults don't mind, they can pull them over."

Of course, Lu Qiang understands what kind of people he calls for life on the water, but now he is the time to use people, and as long as they can keep themselves in peace in the future, what's the use?

nodded and said, "No problem, as long as you introduce me and can be loyal to me, I will definitely reuse it."

"It's not too late. I'm going to come to them to serve the adults."

Jiang Xiaoyu is also impatient. Now he suddenly became an officer. Of course, he is eager to perform.

It is close to Guangling, and it will take some time to go back and forth, so the battle with Huan Wei can't count on them, but this is also good. If this battle can really completely defeat Huan Wei, it will leave a sufficient time for development.

Lu Qiang did not keep him. He ordered his own soldiers to take him to Wang Zhen's house and lead the military card before leaving, so that he could be a member of the Jiangling army.

The arrival of Jiang Xiaoyu also reminds Lu Qiang. The warships are all on the river. Although he has not heard that Huan Wei is attacking from the waterway, can he still worry about the warships when the army besieges the city? Therefore, the warship must be hidden.

The warship is too large, and it is obviously impossible to sail into the inner city, but Jiangling is close to the river. The forests on both sides of the river are dense and the hillsides are continuous. It should not be a problem to find a place to hide the ship.

Thinking of this, Lu Qiang immediately wrote a note and ordered him to send it to Wang Zhen to do this immediately.

After being busy, I found that Liu Sinu had come back a long time ago.

"General, are you looking for me?"

Lu Qiang nodded and told him what he thought before he said, "If you bring this team out, it can be worth 100,000 troops. I can't believe others. Only you do it. How about it? Is there a problem?"

Liu's trust in Lu Qiang was moved inexplicably, but he really didn't do this. He couldn't help scratching his head and said, "Of course, his subordinates will obey the general's order, but can you remind him from there?"

Of course, Lu Qiang is not a strong point in this regard, but he remembers reading a novel written by an awesome man in his previous life, which introduced a very successful spy experience.

"Do you know what business is the most profitable in Jiangnan?"

Liu Sinu continued to scratch her head: "As far as I know, there are many kinds of profitable businesses, but I have to say that the most profitable ones are salt sellers. When we were in the Beifu Army, we caught private salt dealers. That thing is not only profitable, but it is not so bad."

"Hehe! Then you will be a salt seller, but of course you can't do that. First of all, you have to build some fixed shops in various places as a businessman and transport some local shortages..."

Liu Sinu was very smart. Lu Qiang only said the beginning, and he immediately knew what to do next. After thinking for a while, he said, "I understand. I'm going to prepare."

"In terms of money, just go to the master and use as much as you want to withdraw from him. In addition, you also need to recruit some highly qualified people, that is, they can protect you or we can do something that we can't do."

Speaking of this, Lu Qiang couldn't help thinking of the female assassin. With her skills, if she trained a group of killers for herself, she would definitely not be wrong. Unfortunately, the two meetings came and went in a hurry, and now I don't know her name.

"General, don't worry, my subordinates will do it now"

Everyone else has something to do, and she stays by Lu Qiang's side and has nothing to do all day. Liu Sinu has long been full of energy. Now she finally has something to do. She immediately said goodbye to Lu Qiang and went to find her husband.

The master is Lu Qiang's big housekeeper, and he has to find him for all the money.

Lu Qiang doesn't know whether Liu Sinu fully understands what she means. This spy team under the guise of business extends out. Once it succeeds, it will bring her more than just intelligence in the future.

For example, the shortage of war horses in Jiangnan, the iron to build weapons, etc...

Time! If Huan Wei can give himself a year, why be afraid of his 100,000 army?

Just as Lu Qiang's thoughts were leaping, He Guangsheng came in and reminded him, "General, is it time to go to Chenfu?"

I almost forgot this matter after being so busy.

Look at the sky, the time is indeed almost time. He Guangsheng was ordered to prepare a horse, and then he took two bodyguards to fight horses and rushed to Chen's house.
