Chapter 260
Li Chongjiu and Wen Yanbo hurried out in a carriage while the city gate was still open.

It was almost time to beat the drums in the market place, and there were no pedestrians on the road, and even if there were, they were rushing home, so Li Chongjiu's carriage galloped all the way on the street without hindrance.

After a while, the carriage arrived at the place approaching the gate of the city. At this time, there were not many people leaving the city at the gate. Most of them were businessmen who came to the city to do business.

When approaching the gate of the city, Li Chongjiu's carriage was suddenly stopped by several soldiers, and the driver on the carriage said angrily, "You don't even look at it, don't you know that this is the carriage of the Lu Mansion?"

These few soldiers stood in front of the city gate as if they hadn't heard it, and at this moment one person said from a distance: "I wonder if Brother Xu is in the carriage?"

Li Chongjiu had something bad in his mind at the moment, and the speaker was Dugu Xiude.Seeing that Li Chongjiu couldn't dodge it, he lifted the curtain of the car and walked out of the car with a cupped hand and a smile: "Brother Dugu, it's a pleasure to meet you, did you know that I was going out of the city, so you came here specially to see me off?"

Dugu Xiude smiled but said with a smile: "Brother Xu, I am laughing at you. I just wonder why Brother Xu came and went in a hurry. The gate of this city is about to close. It is not too late for you to leave the city now. Why not?" Come to my house and talk about the friendship of the landlord."

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "Of course there is something important."

Dugu Xiude let out an ooh immediately, and said: "Then please forgive me for taking the liberty, what's the important thing?"

Li Chongjiu's face darkened, and Wen Yanbo also got out of the car door beside him, and said, "Brother Dugu, you are so rude, do you think we are prisoners for interrogation?"

Dugu Xiude glanced at Li Chongjiu, and said: "No, I have doubts about the identity of this brother Xu. I heard that brother Xu said that you know the king of Qi, so you came here on the order of the king of Qi. of?"

Li Chongjiu suddenly remembered that the Dugu Clan and the King of Qi had always been at odds, and the Dugu Clan had always supported Yue Wang Yang Yu who was in the eastern capital.Therefore, when Li Chongjiu said that he knew the King of Qi at the beginning, on this occasion, he immediately suspected that Li Chongjiu might have come to Zhuojun to do some secret errands at the request of the King of Qi for the sake of Dugu Xiude.

Li Chongjiu cursed secretly, this Dugu Xiude is meddling in other people's business, he can't fight with King Qi, but the opponent's posture is to let the left and right take him down.

Li Chongjiu got out of the car immediately, and said: "Since brother Dugu wants to ask me to ask questions, Mr. Wen just met me halfway, and let them go."

Dugu Xiude was in a dilemma for a while, he came to block Li Chongjiu, in fact, it was for his own personal thoughts, he didn't ask Xue Shixiong, the county lieutenant, he just mobilized his own soldiers, so he couldn't openly arrest him.This Wen Yanbo is very famous, if he is caught, he may be in trouble.In his eyes, Li Chongjiu was the real master, and said immediately: "Okay, let the carriage go."

Li Chongjiu winked at Wen Yanbo, and Wen Yanbo also knew that he could not help as a mere scholar, so he nodded immediately, indicating that he would go to rescue soldiers, so he followed the coachman out of the city gate.

As soon as Dugu Xiude saw the carriage going, he immediately called a dozen or so soldiers of the left guard to come forward together, and said to Li Chongjiu: "Brother Li, please!"

Li Chongjiu looked around, nodded to Dugu Xiude with a smile, then suddenly got into trouble, and punched Dugu Xiude hard in the face.
Lulong County, the seat of Beiping County.

On the school field in the city, hundreds of army soldiers, shirtless and wearing a crotch cloth, are fighting each other two by two.

"Little rascals, you've been playing sticks pretty well these days."

Hou Luoyi of Jingbian nodded, turned the chair upside down, straddled the chair, took a bunch of grapes from the fruit plate on the side, put them in his mouth without peeling the skin, and bit them.
Luo Yi looked at it for a while, and at this time a general at the side stepped forward and said: "Report to Lord Hou, is there someone from the Lu Mansion in Zhuo County?"

Luo Yi squinted his eyes and said, "Which Lu family?"

The general smiled and said: "Zhuo County is also the Lu family in Fanyang, which is worthy of the word Lu Mansion."

"Bring it to Ben."

After a while, a person came forward and said: "The villain, Lu Sheng, who is in charge of the Lu family, sees the prince."

Luo Yi glanced sideways, and said: "The Lu family came to me, why?"

Lu Sheng saw that Luo Yi's clothes were covered with red and yellow grape juice, and grape seeds and grape skins were also placed on the ground on his feet, he thought, no wonder the second master said that this person is vulgar, and he is really not bad at all.

Lu Sheng immediately said: "If you go back to Junhou, my master wants to invite Jingbianhou to Zhuojun..."

"Good job!"

Lu Sheng was startled suddenly by Luo Yi's yell, it turned out that Luo Yi jumped up, went around in a circle, returned to the chair, and said: "Yang Laosan played well with this stick."

Luo Yi nodded in satisfaction, only then seemed to remember Lu Shenglai, and asked, "What did you just say?"

Lu Sheng held back his anger silently, thinking that he was one of the several chief executives in Lu's house, even officials of the sixth and seventh ranks in Ji County would come to flatter him on weekdays, this Luo Yi dared to face him as rude.

Lu Sheng immediately repeated what he said just now.Luo Yi said angrily: "Mr. Lu invited me to Zhuojun as a guest. Do you come alone, or do you want me to lead the troops?"

Lu Sheng flicked his sleeve robe, and said seriously: "Lu Gong said, of course the Marquis can take soldiers, and the more the better!"

Luo Yi's eyes flashed when he heard the words, he put Erlang's legs down, sat upright and said, "Please explain clearly, what's going on?"

Lu Sheng glanced left and right, and Luo Yi immediately said: "These are all the general's confidantes, but it doesn't matter!"

Lu Sheng said it in detail, and even listed the conditions. Luo Yi pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Xue Shixiong is leaving, and Lu Gong is asking me to lead troops into Zhuojun. To preside over the overall situation?"

"Forget it, I don't have the ambition to dominate the hegemony anyway. As for other conditions, Mr. Lu can do whatever he wants. I'm a rough man and I don't have any ideas. I want you to take care of me, Lulong, a place where no birds shit shit, can't stay here long ago, and your Lu family has to take care of the food when you go to Zhuojun."

"Of course, of course." Lu Sheng was overjoyed, he didn't expect Luo Yi to be so eloquent.

After Lu Sheng left, several trusted generals gathered together and said: "Your Majesty, this is not going to happen. The Lu family is not well-intentioned. We want our brothers to fight for them, but the money and grain of a county go, and there are officials. Appointment and dismissal are in their hands."

Luo Yi sneered, and said: "Do you think I'm a fool? What kind of money, what kind of officials, do you think I don't know what the Lu family is planning? As long as I enter Zhuo County, I can find my brother Qi from the beginning and give me [-] yuan. The county soldiers came over, with soldiers and horses in hand, what kind of money and food and officials do you want, let's say, dare the Lu family not give it?"

All the generals suddenly realized when they heard the words.
