The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 504 Hesitation and Choice

Not long after Liu Wei came back with food, Wang Ning had already received the mission from Liu Wei's order to capture Lu Dinggong.

Regarding Liu Wei's order, Wang Ning was a little timid. After all, Lu Dinggong's status is unusual. He has someone in the capital. If he is arrested, will he offend Lu Duoxun in the capital?
But he couldn't afford to offend Liu Wei, so Wang Ning didn't hesitate too long, and then sent someone to arrest Lu Dinggong.

When he went to capture Duke Lu Ding, Duke Lu Ding did not run away, which made Wang Ning a little puzzled. In fact, he hoped that Duke Lu Ding would escape. If he escaped, he would not be able to catch him, so he would not have to offend Lu Duoxun. .

But he did not escape.

After detaining Lu Dinggong to the government office, Wang Ning began to interrogate Lu Dinggong.

"Why do you want to send people to rob the court of food, and even murder Master Liu?"

Lu Dinggong snorted coldly: "I'm wronged, I didn't do these things at all, I fully support Master Liu, otherwise how could I donate [-] shi of grain to help you tide over the difficulties?"

"But the subordinates you sent have confessed."

"Framing, it's purely their framing. They know that I helped Master Liu, so they hold a grudge against me and want to use this method to harm me and drive us apart. Mr. Wang, you can't listen to rumors."

After listening to Lu Dinggong's words, Wang Ning was dumbfounded. He felt that what Lu Dinggong said was reasonable. Of course, the main reason why he felt this way was that he wanted to suppress this matter. He felt that what Lu Dinggong said was reasonable. Lu Dinggong will definitely tell those people in the capital, if those people in the capital want to rescue Lu Dinggong, then he will convict Lu Dinggong in this way, then he will be miserable?

Thinking of this, Wang Ning waved her hands and asked people to temporarily put Lu Dinggong in jail for retrial at another day.

It was that afternoon when Liu Wei came back. After he ordered people to settle the food, he came to the hill with explosives and set off two bombs. After a short time of igniting, the big rock that would have taken many days to dig out In this way, they were blown to pieces by the explosives, and even the soil that they needed many days to dig was blown away.

All the people around couldn't help but marvel when they saw that things that were difficult to accomplish with manpower were blown up by Liu Wei's two bombs.

"It's amazing what it is."

"Yeah, it's so powerful. If it blows into the house, won't it blow the house down?"

Everyone was discussing, and Pan Weiji in the crowd couldn't help but twitched his eyelids.He had already heard about the power of the bomb from his spies, but he never heard anything as reliable as what he had seen with his own eyes.

Powerful, this is the first word that Pan Weiji thought of, and immediately afterwards, he had a desire for this thing, an indescribable desire, if he can get these, then get him hundreds or thousands, Can Zhao Guangyi's palace be blown up?
We must get this thing, but how to get it? Obviously, Liu Wei is very strict about protecting such secrets.

When Pan Weiji thought this way, he couldn't help casting his eyes on Zhugepi. Perhaps, he might not be able to use Zhugepi.

In the capital, the sun sets.

The dusk in the capital is beautiful, especially in midsummer, when the temperature drops slightly and the breeze blows away the sweltering heat of the whole day.

And at this moment, a fast horse galloped rapidly on the streets of the capital, and finally stopped in front of Ludoxun's mansion.

"Second Lord has a letter, open the door quickly." The man on the fast horse shouted loudly before he got off his horse, and all the servants in Ludoxon's house knew who the second master was referring to.

The messenger hurriedly came to the living room and saw Lu Duoxun. After Lu Duoxun took the letter and read it, he frowned slightly: "Confused, confused."

The person who sent the letter didn't know the content of the letter, but at this time he was still frowning.

Lu Duoxun hesitated for a moment, then rode on a fast horse and rushed to Wei Wang's mansion. After seeing Wei Wang, he showed Wei Wang the letter sent by his younger brother. , It’s a good thing for the king to be bad.”

Lu Duoxun's face was ugly, and he said: "My lord, my brother underestimated Liu Wei's ability too much. He thought that Liu Wei could be wiped out on his own territory, so he sent someone to do it. You have exposed your identity, my lord, my younger brother is loyal to you, and all his food is prepared for the lord's great cause, you must find a way to save him."

"Save him?" Wei Wang suddenly turned cold, and then said: "He sent someone to kill Liu Wei, and now Liu Wei is alive, do you think this king can save him?"

"But... my lord, if he dies, your influence in Shangzhou will be completely gone. It will not be easy to raise such an industry again." At this time, Lu Duoxun was very anxious, but he did not lose his mind. He knew very well that if he wanted King Wei to save his younger brother, he had to make King Wei feel that his younger brother was worth using and being saved.

As for what Lu Duoxun said, the King of Wei also knew that Shangzhou is a big grain-producing state, and many of his secret soldiers and horses of the King of Wei were fed by Lu Dinggong's food supply. If there is no Lu Dinggong, then his You have to find another person who can provide you with these supplies, but such a person is not easy to find.

"Perhaps, there is a way to save your brother."

"any solution?"

"This case is of great importance, and the other party's evidence is sufficient, unless those caught by Liu Wei are told to turn their backs, and then kill them to silence them. In this way, your brother's life may be saved."

"But... But those people have already been imprisoned by Liu Wei, how can they turn back, we don't even have a chance to see them?"

"That's why it's difficult."

Seeing this, Lu Duoxun frowned suddenly. According to what King Wei said, it was impossible to save his younger brother, but now he thought of another situation. If Liu Wei died, he might rely on The ability of him and King Wei can still save his younger brother.

Therefore, he wanted Liu Wei to die.

"My lord, maybe our plan should be implemented. I heard that Liu Wei didn't distribute the relief food to the victims."

Hearing Lu Duoxun's words, King Wei suddenly understood what Lu Duoxun meant. In fact, from the very beginning, they set up a trap for Liu Wei, and under the circumstances at that time, Liu Wei knew it was a trap. But he still jumped in without hesitation.

Now Liu Wei's behavior made the game they set up more logical.

According to their previous agreement, they would have to wait a little longer, but in order to save Lu Dinggong, Lu Duoxun was not going to wait any longer. In his opinion, even if they didn't have to wait, they would still be able to win an absolute victory this time.

"Let's start taking action tomorrow morning."
