Chapter 244: The ultimate move
...
Jiangzhou City was very lively that night.
Zhizhou Lu and his girlfriend made love until midnight, but when he returned home, he saw two people drinking tea in his backyard.
He thought he had gone to the wrong place in his sleep.
The lantern outside was still on quietly.
Looking more carefully, the yard was full of people.
But the two people drinking tea stood out.
All the family members were called up, tied up one by one, and gagged.
Jiang Sima yawned and said, "Lord Lu, I have a habit of sleepwalking. I will sleepwalk when I am unhappy. My family members are worried about me and follow me at night, worried that I will accidentally hurt someone."
Lu Zhizhou still smelled strongly of powder, half drunk and half awake, with weak legs. He leaned softly on the servants behind him and said with a strong breath:
"You, you, do you dare to kill the court officials? Killing the court officials is a capital crime."
"Lord Lu, don't you know that I was originally a rebel and made my fortune by killing court officials!"
"Master Xi, Master Xi, please persuade him. My godfather is Eunuch Liu, don't make the mistake." Zhizhou Lu didn't expect this Jiang to be so reckless, nor did he expect so many guards he hired to be so useless. They were caught without any movement.
Xiqichi shook his head and said, "I was just sleepwalking."
Jiang Changtian pointed the sword at his neck.
"Swish!"
A strand of long hair fell.
Zhizhou Lu almost thought his throat was cut, his body became hot, and he urinated.
Xiqichi just sat there drinking tea, holding the cup, and didn't drink much, just moistened his throat, worried that if he drank too much tea at night, he would have to get up at night and urinate frequently.
He watched the scene leisurely.
It was so refreshing.
Still so straightforward.
Being an official in the court, he felt depressed every day.
He smiled at everyone he met and bowed to everyone he met. After a long time, he even forgot his last name.
Jiang Changtian said: "I heard that you are good at saving money. Under your rule, more than 60 families were ruined. You have a bad habit. I also like to save money, but I always let people give voluntarily, just like now, Governor Lu, are you willing to give me two-thirds of your family property? Are you willing?"
"I am willing, I am willing." Governor Lu nodded like a garlic.
The sword is still in front of him, how dare he not be willing?
The whole family has a sword on their heads, how dare he not be willing?
Jiang Changtian asked people to move things from the warehouse.
They were all skilled workers, and they knew to pick out expensive, valuable, light, and easy-to-carry things.
Before leaving, Jiang Changtian directly stabbed Lu Zhizhou's palm with a sword.
"I usually don't sleepwalk, but you told me that you want my horse. My horse is a birthday gift for my daughter. I don't want her to give it up. If you want anything from me, I don't care. I will give it to you if I can. But it's my daughter's thing. I really can't ask for it. I can't sleep at night, so I came here to explain it to Lord Lu in person. Lord Lu, you may understand the painstaking efforts of a father." "
I understand, I understand."
Lu Zhizhou was in pain and burst into tears. He thought that he would kill them tomorrow. As long as he could survive, he would kill these country bugs.
Jiang Changtian shook his head: "You still don't understand. Your expression is wrong and not sincere enough."
Jiang Changtian pulled out the sword and gestured to his heart.
Lu Zhizhou was terrified and trembling.
"I really understand. I don't want horses, not even one."
"It's good that you understand. You see, I talked to you heart to heart in the middle of the night and it worked out. If we can't talk it out, we can only open our hearts and talk it out. It will be fine once we make it through, right, Lord Lu?" Jiang Changtian put the sword on his chest and gestured seriously. "
Yes, yes, you are right." Lu Zhizhou was sweating and trembling. Opening your heart does not mean to cut it open with a sword, it is an adjective...
Lu Zhizhou's hand was bleeding.
He watched Jiang Changtian get up and walk out. He breathed heavily and felt that he had escaped.
But he didn't expect Jiang Changtian to take only two steps and then retreat.
He kicked him twice in the chest, and rolled him up like a cooked shrimp.
"I forgot to tell you one thing. I don't know if Lord Lu really likes horses, or if someone told you that I have a good horse. Do you know that someone once said something bad about my daughter, and I killed more than 600 people in that person's home in one night and burned her house. The fire burned for several days and nights, and the knife used to kill people was blunt. I changed three knives. Can you understand this? That person didn't encourage you to have a horse, but encouraged you to die. Do you understand?"
Lu Zhizhou burst into tears. He understood, really understood.
Whoever whispered in his ear that Sima Jiang had a horse wanted him to die.
Jiang Changtian saw that he didn't look very smart.
He kicked him twice more.
Under the lantern, in the night, Jiang Sima said angrily: "I hate you people who always bring up the relationship with the eunuch party . Do you still look like an official appointed by the court? You have lost the face of an official appointed by the court!"
"Yes, yes, I will never say it again. I will never reconcile with the eunuch party." Lu Zhizhou cried and raised his hand to swear.
Then he was kicked again.
"It's all you dogs who ruined the reputation of the eunuch party. They worked hard in the palace and couldn't go out once a year. What's their fault? They just served the emperor wholeheartedly. You are slandered by you bugs. How dare you say you are an official appointed by the court? Bah!"
Lu Zhizhou was completely kicked stupid.
No, which side are you on? !
"I have a half-brother, surnamed Yan, good at music, who is in the palace, struggling hard to survive, but was ruined by you messy people. What eunuch party? He is my good brother. I will never allow you to do this again. In the future, if I, Jiang Changtian, meet someone who is making trouble under the name of eunuch party, I will kill him one by one."
The lantern was shaking.
Jiang Sima finally left.
Lu Zhizhou finally passed out.
...
There is no curfew in Jiangzhou.
The night wind was very cool.
Jiang Sima led his people and walked slowly towards the post station. Fortunately, the post station was not far from the government office and the official mansion. If it was too far, he might not want to come.
Qi Chi followed slowly for a walk.
As he walked, he fell behind by half a step.
Jiang Changtian stopped to wait for him.
Qi Chi caught up again.
"Brother Jiang, you have a much stronger murderous aura than before."
"You are scaring people. My wife and children are weak, so I have to act fierce when I am outside."
"We still have to set a curfew in the future. The public security in Jiangzhou is not good. Look, the whole family of Governor Lu was almost killed, and no one cares."
"Yes, it's not so good. It's not as good as Jingzhou. Brother Jiang, you are still better at it."
"Yes, I didn't worry about it before I became an official. Now that I am an official, I want to take care of it when I see something bad."
