"How about this, let's play Believe It or Not! Whoever loses has to drink a small glass of wine." Lu Ming coughed, "I'll ask Granny Tuolong to get some dice!"
Looking at the two beauties in flowered farm clothes, in a farmhouse in the countryside, without electrical appliances, in the dead of night, what else can they do for entertainment
Lu Ming felt a little warm in his heart.
"I know what you are thinking now!" Han Annie said with a smile.
Lu Ming coughed, "Really?"
"Tell us a story about your strange dreams..." Han Annie blinked her big eyes.
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Han Annie was actually very curious about the "previous life" he mentioned.
"Okay!" Lu Ming's heart was moved. If he told her about "Annie" in her previous life, would something wonderful happen
Looking around, Lu Ming pointed at the moon-shaped bed and said, "Let's go sit on the kang. These chairs and stools are too hard and uncomfortable."
Xue Zihan was obviously startled, and then whispered: "Master, husband... Sister Annie, you guys chat, I'm sleepy, I'll go back and rest."
Han Annie smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? If we're together, does he dare to eat us? I'm afraid of him if I'm alone!" She walked over and whispered something in Xue Zihan's ear. Xue Zihan blushed immediately, but finally, nodded.
Lu Ming scratched his head. This must not be what he thought. Annie is not Liuli. But why is it so similar to that scene? It's so weird.
Just at this moment, a figure appeared on the paper window outside, "Master..." It was Granny Tuolong's voice, a little hesitant.
Lu Ming nodded: "Yes, I am here."
The door rang softly, and Granny Tuolong pushed it open and came in, whispering, "Master, near Wu Garden, Da Guo and Xiao Guo have captured a man. After their interrogation, they found that the man is an envoy from the Long family, and he is here to get rid of the head of the Wu family."
Lu Ming asked: "Where are the people?"
Grandma Tuolong shook her head.
Lu Ming knew that the people Xiaoguo and Daguo who captured people were naturally not ordinary people, but people who had secret skills like Tuolong and the others.
And the person who came explained it so clearly. The interrogation by Da Guo and Xiao Guo must have greatly damaged his mental strength. He must have been disabled.
The Long family came to get rid of the head of the Wu family
Looking at Grandma Tuolong, I knew she was waiting for me to make a decision.
Lu Ming nodded: "Well, let's ask Xiao Guo and Xiao Guo to capture the head of the Wu family."
He turned to Han Anni helplessly and said, "Let's go back to Wu'an now."
…
In the study of the ancestral home, it was dawn.
Lu Ming looked at the paper in his hand with mixed feelings.
To be honest, I didn’t expect many things to become clear so quickly.
Mr. Wu is just an ordinary person who knows a few fancy moves. How can he withstand the interrogation of Da Guo and Xiao Guo
According to his account, he was a retainer of the Zhang family in Dongcheng.
The Zhang family and the Lu family have always been close business partners until two hundred years ago, when the Zhang family changed its head. The Lu family firmly supported another heir to take the throne. During this period, it seems that the new head of the family had to marry into another big family, which resulted in the death of his pregnant fiancée. As a result, after the new head of the Zhang family succeeded to the throne, the Zhang and Lu families split.
What the Lu family didn't know was that the new head of the Zhang family had written into the ancestral precepts the oath to bury the entire Lu family with him.
The series of business setbacks that the Lu family later encountered were secretly related to the Zhang family.
It was not until several decades after the Lu family retreated to a corner of Wu'an that the Zhang family planned a fatal blow to the Lu family.
But because a playboy escaped, Mr. Wu was sent here to gather information.
As for the Long family, Mr. Wu had no idea what relationship they had with him.
Lu Ming slowly put down the paper. In fact, it can be imagined that the Long family is also the head of the Zhang family consortium.
The Long family has been operating in the northern border for hundreds of years and has inherited secret skills. In the ignorant era of cold weapons, they were the king. They could fool people by pretending to be gods and ghosts, and they could easily start a cult.
Are the big chaebol families in Northern Xinjiang actually controlled by the Long family? Is it just to avoid being too big and too conspicuous that the Long family hides their relationship with the big chaebol families
When dealing with the Lu family, the Long family naturally helped, but it was just a small favor, so the Lu family was probably not an enemy in his eyes.
But what was unexpected was that the one who escaped the Lu family would become rich and powerful in the south.
The Long family probably didn't take it too seriously.
What really made him feel the danger was probably the meeting between him and Young Master Long. When he returned, Young Master Long naturally told his elders at home about it.
He is a subordinate of the Lu family who was caught in the trap, but there are many extraordinary people around him.
This made the Long family feel that they might be in big trouble.
Mr. Wu is just a small pawn, but for people with special abilities, he is too obviously a pawn. If he is caught, he will definitely reveal the Zhang family, and then, it is very likely that his Long family will be implicated in the case of the Lu family's massacre.
Therefore, the Long family immediately sent people to silence them.
According to Daguo and Xiaoguo, the person who came was very powerful, basically at the level of an ordinary Qing'e today.
It can also be said that it is about the same strength as when Da Guo and Xiao Guo first followed him.
He must be an important figure in the Long family, one of the top few. I think the head of the Long family did not expect that after sending out such a figure, he would be easily discovered and caught. He underestimated himself.
Lu Ming pondered and looked at the paper again. Mr. Wu had no idea that Richard had been poisoned.
The God of War was originally in a dilemma as to how to deal with him. In a healthy and stable society, if he was not used by the government, he would inevitably become an unstable factor.
He glanced at Grandma Tuolong who was waiting for his order and said, "I'll leave a letter for the Long family. Besides, we'll leave now and go back to our land!"
Although this is the territory of Han Renwang of Beining, it is still in the northern border after all. Don't give the Long family a chance to win in danger.
As he spoke, Lu Ming picked up the pen and ink, thinking about how to write the letter.
It is better to focus on appeasing them first. Right now, there are anger issues everywhere. If we go into a full-scale war with the Long family, many plans will have to be changed.
In particular, if the Long family still has some power left and can influence Qi Huaide and the Northern Frontier warlord group, causing Northern Frontier and Haixi to form an alliance, and with the support of the Japanese, they can join forces to fight against themselves, then the situation in the Northern Territory will be turned upside down.
It is better to comfort and take it slowly.
However, from the Long family's perspective, how can they appease the family that has a blood feud with them, the Prince of Black Mountain Castle
Thinking about it, Lu Ming suddenly looked up and said, "I'm going to Dongcheng. Don't follow me. I'm going alone."
Grandma Tuolong was stunned, then she understood what her master meant. At worst she could just abandon this puppet skin.
Lu Ming waved his hand: "No need to persuade me, let's put it this way, the New Year is coming soon, I will go after the New Year! I will go back to Beiheishan first. I will leave a letter to arrange a visit time with the Long family."
Grandma Tuolong responded in a low voice, "That's good. During this period of time, the master's decisions will be discussed together with the Queen Mother of Baozhu Palace and the Queen Mother of Liuli Palace."
