Chapter 114 Lu Xun uses people

Time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, Lu Qiang lived in Jin'an County for a month. In this month, Jin'an County can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

There are almost no dilapidated houses in the city. A lot of flowers and plants have been planted on both sides of the neat streets, and many shops have been opened. The faces of pedestrians who come and go are filled with satisfied smiles.

The population of less than 10,000 when Lu Qiang first came, soaring to nearly 20,000, and it is still increasing. Nowadays, the people of Jin'an County not only have land to cultivate, but also go to the shipyard to do odd jobs.

Lu Qiang has built this city as a future naval base. After solving Lu Xun's case, he will set out to bypass Jingzhou, continue his southern patrol, and then return directly to Jiangling from Jingzhou.

After Lu Qiang left, Zhang Changzhi will be stationed in Jin'an County as the Sima of Jin'an County. The army here will be expanded by 20,000. Of course, this requires a process. Now, in addition to Lu Qiang's 2,000 guards in Jin'an County, there are nearly 2,000 new recruits.

Just when Lu Qiang and Gou Lin were a little anxious, Lu Xun, the representative of Wu Yinzhi, the former assassin of Guangzhou, asked for a meeting.

Before, Xiao Yuan often said to Lu Qiang that Wu Yinzhi was a very strong man. Although he was in Lu Xun's prison, he always refused to surrender, and Lu Xun did not know what his mind was to support him.

Lu Xun, the representative of Wu Yinzhi, came to see him. Did he surrender to Lu Xun?

With this question, Lu Qiang ordered people to bring Wu Yinzhi in. If Wu Yinzhi really defected to Lu Xun, he would not mind killing people.

Guangzhou is located at the southern end of the imperial court. Because of its remote location, it has always been unpopular with the imperial court, and even Wu Yinzhi, as an assassin, does not know many things.

For example, Lu Qiang, a sudden figure, he didn't know, because he had been locked up by Lu Xun. If Lu Xun hadn't told him, he would not have believed that Jing and Jiang Assassin were so young today.

However, thinking that he could still see the court officials alive, Wu Yinzhi's eyes couldn't help but be a little wet. After going to the hall, he bowed to Lu Qiang and said, "The criminal has seen Lord Lu"

Lu Qiang said coldly, "How is Lord Wu doing in Lu Xun?"

After listening to Lu Qiang's words, Wu Yinzhi's face showed a look of shame and said, "Wu was ashamed of the court and failed to defend the city for the court. He really deserved to die. Wu also wanted to thank the court for a long time, but he always wanted to watch the Lu thief die for a day, which made the world with his own eyes and made the adults laugh."

"Do you want to see Lu Xun die?"

Hearing the unbelief in the strong tone of the road, Wu Yinzhi said angrily: "Wu and the Lu thief are not incomparable. Every time they think of the tens of thousands of people killed by him, they want to eat their meat and sleep their skin."

Wu Yinzhi said so, which stunned Lu Qiang and couldn't help saying, "Then why did you come to see me for Lu Xun?"

Wu Yinzhi also realized at this time that Lord Lu suspected that he had succumbed to serving the thief. For a moment, he was ashamed and angry. If it hadn't been for something, he would have had the heart to die.

At present, he said angrily, "The criminal is willing to work for the Lu thief, but he doesn't want the court to suffer losses. To be honest, the Lu thief asked me to stabilize the adult. Although I didn't tell him what the purpose is, with my understanding of the Lu thief, he must have some unspeakable purpose. Please take precautions and say goodbye!"

After saying that, Wu Yinzhi turned around angrily and was ready to leave, but he didn't expect that Lu Qiang didn't know when to stand up and grabbed him.

"Hehe! Lord Wu, don't blame. The Lu thief is so cunning that I have to guard against it! Please sit down quickly. I will make amends for you."

Lu Qiang's behavior surprised Wu Yinzhi. You should know that Lu Qiang's current official position is much better than him, and he still lost the criminal of the imperial city. Lu Qiang punished him with this, and he can't say anything.

He hurriedly hugged his fist and saluted: "Your excellency's words are heavy. The criminal's act is suspected of being a thief. Don't blame the adult for being suspicious."

The two sat down again, and Lu Qiang ordered someone to serve tea for Wu Yinzhi, and then asked Lu Xun again about the purpose of sending him here.

Wu Yinzhi said solemnly, "When the subordinate went to the Lu thief's house, he saw his powerful men sneaking out of his house, and then saw the Lu thief's counselor leading a guest into his house, so the subordinate dared to guess that the Lu thief must have done something unfavorable to the court, so he let the subordinate To stabilize the adults"

After listening to Wu Yinzhi's words, Lu Qiang had to admire Lu Xun's mind. Does such a person who has never surrender to him dare to use it? Is it just to confuse yourself?

As for the mysterious figure, Lu Qiang can also guess that it must be the person sent by Zhu Chaoshi. As early as Shangrao, he knew that it would be like this.

The shipyard has dug a big hole for Gou Lin, but he is afraid that he will not go, but Zhu Chaoshi is a little troublesome. This guy is ready to be his enemy to the end. I was ordered to call Zhu Zan in.

This boy has been doing a good job recently. Sometimes he goes to guest as a groom for Lu Qiang, and sometimes he follows the guards to help the people build houses. He is much darker and thinner, but he is stronger. And if his former friends saw the things he was doing now, the custodian would be shocked. When did Mr. Zhu become so close to the people?

Zhu Zan didn't know what Lu Qiang was looking for him, so he trotted over.

Lu Qiang was talking with Wu Yinzhi about Guangzhou. When he saw Zhu Zan coming in, he said to Wu Yinzhi, "Do you know who he is?"

Wu Yinzhi has never seen Zhu Zan before. How about getting to know him? I haven't answered yet, but I heard Lu Qiang speak again, but this time I said to Zhu Zan.

"It seems that your uncle didn't want you to go back. He actually sent people to collude with Lu Xun. Do you think I should cut down something for you and send it back to your family?"

After this period of observation, Lu Qiang's impression of Zhu Zan has changed a lot. This boy is smart, serious, and can often draw inferences. If he is not from the Zhu family, Lu Qiang wants to keep him by his side. That's just to scare him, and it won't really hurt him.

After listening to Lu Qiang's words, Zhu Zan immediately knelt down on his ground in fear: "Adult Mingjian, since the villain followed the adult, he has never dared to be half-minded. What the family does has nothing to do with the villain. When the villain thinks of it, the owner of the family may also be provoked by others, otherwise he will never have contact with the rebels. "

This boy is very smart and does not deny that his family will contact Lu Xun at all, and first tell him his performance during this period. Based on his observation of Lu Qiang, he knows that Lu Qiang will not kill him like this.

Lu Qiang looked at Zhu Zan coldly until he saw his cold sweat and said, "Go and write a letter to your owner. I hope this is the last time. Next time I will send your head back. In addition, the conditions I mentioned before should be doubled, otherwise everything will be avoided." /P>

"Yes... The villain is going to write"

After Zhu Zan finished speaking, he rolled and crawled out.

Zhu Chaoshi sent people to find Lu Xun, one to deal with himself, and I'm afraid he wanted to save this boy. So what method will Lu Xun use to save people?

Looking at Zhu Zan's back, Wu Yinzhi said doubtfully, "Your Excellency, is he?"

The thought was interrupted, but Lu Qiang did not blame him. He smiled and said, "Your excellency must have been locked up for a long time, right?"

Then he briefly told Wu Yinzhi how to drive himself away Huan Xuan, how to be appointed by the emperor, and how to be provoked by Zhu Chaoshi.

Wu Yinzhi was loyal to the court. When Huan Xuan entered the court, he hated him. Now when he heard that Huan Xuan was actually driven away from Jiangling by the young man in front of him, he immediately became awe.

Once again, he stood up and respectfully saluted Lu Qiang and said, "The subordinate was so rude. Please forgive me. Since you have been ordered by the emperor to restrain Guangzhou's soldiers and horses, please send troops to eliminate the Lu thieves as soon as possible and save the people of Guangzhou."

This guy is anxious, but he can understand.

nodded and said, "Lu Xun is located in Guangzhou, just like a cancer on my body in Jingzhou. It must be cut down, but at present, my military strength is insufficient. In addition, as far as I know, it is best to attack Guangzhou by both land and water, and the most lacking under my command is precisely the candidate to lead the navy."

Hearing Lu Qiang's words, Wu Yinzhi also frowned and meditated for a moment before saying, "The subordinate has a personal choice, but he is also currently in Lu Xun's custody. I don't know if the adult can save him?"

"Oh? I don't know what this person is called? What special ability do you have?"

"This man's name is Han Yanzhi. Sun En, who was killed at sea, was defeated, and he was the one who directly caused Sun En to throw himself into the sea."

"What?"

Lu Qiang thought he heard it wrong. Han Yanzhi not only defeated Sun En, but also forced him to die. Such a person was caught by Lu Xun and didn't kill him? You should know that Lu Xun is Sun En's brother-in-law! Are you playing something to convince people with virtue? But other Sun En's men can't do it?

"Your Excellency, don't believe it. Although Lu Xun has been rebeling, he always wants to get a formal appointment from the imperial court, so he is very preferential to the court officials caught, but others say that if you directly ask Lu Xun for Han Yanzhi, it may hurt him."

It turns out that Lu Xun still has this good habit.

According to Wu Yinzhi, Han Yanzhi is really a talent. If he is a talent, he has to find a way to get it, but as Wu Yinzhi said, he must not be in a hurry. He has to think of a safe way.

Twenty miles away from Jin'an County, there is a natural port, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a sudden piece of land is like a giant's palm stretching out to the sea, surrounding this sea.

The shipyard is located on land next to this harbor.

With the arrival of the silver money brought by Lu Qiang's people in Jiangling, giant trees used for shipbuilding were also transported over, which were piled up in the field like hills.

There is no shortage of shipbuilders in Jiangnan. At this time, the keel of several large ships has stood proudly in the shipyard, and it seems that it will not be launched soon.

In order to prevent destruction, Lu Qiang stationed 500 soldiers here. Although the number is not large, it is enough to defend.

As the sun sank, in the sound of "Gun", the day's work is finally over. The workers came down from their posts and walked out of the shipyard in twos and threes. There was a temporary factory not far away, which was specially prepared for those foreigners who had no place to live in the city.

No one noticed that more than a dozen of the workers sneaked into the shadow of the pile of huge wood under the cover of dusk...
