Chapter 2 The Changes of Zhuge Scum
He almost watched Zhuge Liusu grow up since childhood, and his young master was extremely intelligent. However, due to the influence of the general environment, his frivolity and youthful and arrogant attitude are obvious to all.
But at this moment, his every word he made seemed confident, making Uncle Jiu, who was most familiar with him, nodded without hesitation.
He may not know why he believed in this young master who had never been reliable.
Feng Ling also ran in from outside at this time, and the letter had been passed on. It took three days and three nights to reach the capital.
"Young Master, the letter has been delivered!" Feng Ling ran to him in a hurry.
Zhuge Liusu reached out and rubbed his head. The two of them grew up together. They seemed to be masters and servants, but in fact they were brothers.
This is also the reason why Feng Ling is grateful to Zhuge Liusu. He has never regarded himself as a servant since he was a child. Even someone bullies him, he will stand up to help block it.
"We will talk about these things later. Let's help Uncle Jiujiu prepare for them first. We will be in big trouble."
Feng Ling nodded.
Seeing Feng Ling go down and busy, Zhuge Liusu put down the three spears in his hand casually. He could only put down this "divine weapon" for the time being.
Uncle Jiu is right, now all the fingers are pointed at him.
When County Magistrate Cui was assassinated, someone must have wanted to do this. In this case, his illegitimate son seemed not as comfortable as he imagined.
It’s just a pity that I was born with a dead end, otherwise even if I had an illegitimate child, I would not have become an abandoned child.
As he thought about it, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came.
Zhuge Liusu waved his hand and stood up...
"I heard that Mr. Liusu is awake? How are you doing now? Have you fully recovered?" Before the man approached the courtyard, a burst of urgent inquiries came.
"Here..." Zhuge Liusu narrowed her eyes slightly.
Dong Dacheng, the county magistrate of Chongling County, walked in with his fat body, followed by several yamen runners.
At first sight, when he saw Zhuge Liusu, who was venting his muscles and bones in the courtyard, his little eyes immediately burst out with a few rays of light.
Then he walked over a few steps and gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that Mr. Liusu has recovered well, so I feel at ease."
Zhuge Liusu also looked grateful: "It's just a trivial matter, and now it's recovered. I'm so embarrassed to bother the adults to go there in person."
Dong Dacheng sighed and shook his head and said, "Young Master Liusu doesn't know that the county magistrate was assassinated last night, and our Chongling County lost a parent official. As the county magistrate, I am really unforgivable to blame. I did not protect Lord Cui."
Although it looks a little sad on the surface, the small eyes and the fat face are still full of incongruity.
Zhuge Liusu sneered in her heart.
The magistrate of Chongling County is the largest, and the county magistrate is considered the deputy. The two checked and balanced each other, and they were both official positions with real power.
Although the county magistrate is more than the county magistrate in terms of rank, the power in the hands of the county magistrate is not less than that in the county magistrate.
Now that Old Cui is dead, the happiest person is naturally Dong Dacheng. His words are probably only a fool.
When Dong Dacheng saw Zhuge Liusu, he did not speak, but lowered his head to ponder, and he also sneered in his heart.
This illegitimate son of Zhuge's family, who was a little unsmart, has been living under the protection of Prince Cui since he arrived in Chongling County. Without Prince Cui, this kid would have been killed long ago.
Now that County Magistrate Cui suddenly died, this kid must be panicked. This is the best way, and the next plan will be easily unfolded.
When Dong Dacheng thought of this, he felt happy. The above person who had been a political enemy with the Zhuge family for many years and had supreme power and status in the court.
This illegitimate child may not be inconspicuous, but the matter involves the sword saint, so if you make good use of it, the effect you can achieve is self-evident.
It is likely that the entire Zhuge family will be affected.
He has made great contributions to this matter. A county magistrate of Chongling County is probably not enough to make up for this contribution. He has already set a higher position.
Seeing the light reflected from his eyes, Zhuge Liusu was clear-headed.
"Young Master Liusu, now that County Magistrate Cui is killed, there are still many things in the county government that have not been dealt with yet. I have to go back as soon as possible. I will feel at ease when I see you are safe!" Dong Dacheng patted his shoulder and said.
Zhuge Liusu nodded: "You are busy with official duties, and you should put the people first in extraordinary times."
When Dong Dacheng heard this, his eyes lit up. He didn't expect Zhuge Liusu to say such a sentence.
He was a little surprised at the change of this playboy and immediately continued, "But before leaving, there are two things to remind the young master to prepare early."
Zhuge Liusu's eyes flashed: "Sir, please speak."
Dong Dacheng said solemnly: "The first thing is about the young master. After Lord Cui's death, I have been dealing with trivial matters in the county government and ignored the news that Lord Dong banned the young master and killed the sword saint, which caused the news to spread in less than half a day."
"It is said that Yuwen Haoran has already entered Chongling County first, so the young master has to make plans early."
Zhuge Liusu nodded. It was strange that Dong Dacheng came here today, and now he told him about this matter before leaving.
I'm afraid I have ulterior motives, but he can't guess what the purpose is.
"What about the second thing?" Zhuge Liusu said.
Dong Dacheng continued: "Tomorrow, the magistrate will send an envoy to investigate the cause of Lord Cui's death. This matter may be inseparable from the young master. After all, Lord Cui finally left the young master last night."
Zhuge Liusu raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Cui has always treated me well, like his brother. Now that he has been assassinated, I feel sad in my heart. It is best for the magistrate to intervene in this matter, but I don't know who will come?"
Dong Dacheng shook his head: "That's not something I, as a junior, can know."
He looked at Zhuge Liusu deeply: "But it is said that this matter has reached Yundu. Not only did His Majesty be furious, but even Prince Zhuge was angry."
The Prince Zhuge was Zhuge Zhibai, the father of Zhuge Liusu, the leader of the military generals of the dynasty and the hereditary of the Zhennan throne.
Dong Dacheng continued: "There is a close friend of the official in Kongzhou. I heard that Xu Peizhong, the Kuraji of Kongzhou, will come, but it is unknown whether the situation is accurate."
After saying this, Dong Dacheng's eyes became deeper again.
There was no fluctuation on Zhuge Liusu's face, so calm that he was overwhelmed.
He wanted to see through this illegitimate child with a very poor reputation, but found that it was all futile.
"In this way, I will not delay it. Mr. Liusu, say goodbye!"
"Great send to you by yourselves!"
Looking at Dong Dacheng's back as he left, Zhuge Liusu gradually frowned.
"Xu Peizhong?"
Like the dead Lord Cui, this person is a disciple of the Zhuge family, so it is reasonable for him to come here.
Although the situation in Chongling County is complex, it is a strategic throat, and the Zhuge family cannot let it go to political enemies.
In this way, Chongling County is probably going to be another battle.
He shook his head and sighed softly.
The breeze blows, and a little coolness is inexplicably generated.
