(Thank you very much for the generous support and monthly ticket support of 'Haihu 888' and 'Lonely Heroes'.)

And this is exactly what Wang Junlin appreciates about Du Ruhui. He just talked about Huang Lao, with the ambition of "benefiting the world as a whole", but after knowing Wang Junlin's thoughts, what he said next , it is full of the taste of conspiracy.

"If history remains the same, there will not even be ten years..." Wang Junlin thought to himself, but encouraged Du Ruhui to continue talking with his eyes.

"My lord, prepare for the collapse of the Sui Dynasty."

Du Ruhui's title has changed. Du Ruhui regards himself as his subject and mainly Wang Junlin. This is a formal statement of his position. He is serving Wang Junlin, not the Sui court.

After some verbal probing just now, Du Ruhui was able to be sure that Wang Junlin would never blame himself, that's why he said this.

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Wang Junlin's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a smile, "Does Ruhui have the ambition to rule the world?"

Du Ruhui's body shook, he did not expect Wang Junlin's eyes to be so sharp, and he immediately talked about the most secret ideal deep in his heart that he had never told anyone. He took a deep breath and said, "Ruhui Admittedly, Ruhui does have the ambition to rule the world, the Lord can see this, so don't you have the ambition to rule the world?"

Du Ruhui paid homage again: "My lord, Du Ruhui's ideal is to help the lord ascend to this position! So as to help the lord rule the world."

Wang Junlin did not reply immediately, but a smile of unknown meaning appeared on his face, and he looked at Du Ruhui for a moment, before Wang Junlin stretched out his hands to support his arms, and said in an inexplicable tone: "Ru Hui , you are right, to rule the world is my ambition, and your ideal of ruling the world, I will help you realize it."

Compared to the fact that the Lu family is the only one in the entire Fanyang County, the situation in the county is relatively complicated. Incompetent, but the influence in the county still has an advantage.

When Wang Junlin first arrived in the county city more than a month ago, the aristocratic forces in the county city suspected that the new eunuch, like the previous eunuchs, would not be able to compete with the Lu family, so they did not dare to express their stance easily, fearing that it would be self-defeating, and that they would be caught in the limelight. The Lu family retaliated, so at that time, apart from the officials, no one from the nobles in the county came forward to greet him, and even the next few days when Wang Junlin was in the county, no nobles from the county came to visit.

Wang Junlin and his party in the salt field almost wiped out the influence of the Lu family in the salt field in just a few days, making the salt field, the largest money tree in Fanyang County, change hands, according to Lu's experience in dealing with the previous prefects Look, Mrs. Lu should retaliate fiercely, but news came that Mrs. Lu did not take any action during this process. Even Qian Zhengkuo, the Cao tax official in the county mansion, completely defected to the prefect and was promoted two times. level and become the new head of the saltworks.

When the news came out, the nobles in the county had to think about what if the Lu clan couldn't beat the prefect, and the prefect turned around and settled the matter?

So, now that Wang Junlin came back from the salt field, he took a carriage through the city to the Taishou's Mansion, and the principals of the various nobles in the county came to see him, and lined up on the stone pavement in front of the Taishou's Mansion to greet him.

Wang Junlin had heard the news a long time ago, so he was not surprised. He got out of the carriage at this time, and without waiting for the nobles to salute him, he casually cupped his hands and said, "I have kept you waiting here for a long time, and I have neglected you." He pretended to blame the door Liu Ziming, who was accompanying him, said: "How can Ziming neglect the gentry in the county and make them wait outside for a long time?"

"Your Majesty is very polite. Your Majesty is a Duke of the county. He has made great military exploits for the imperial court. He came to serve in our Fanyang County. I heard that you are busy with work, and considering our low status, I have not come to bother you. Today, when I heard that my lord was going back to the county town, I waited for a while in front of the prefect's mansion, which is too insignificant. If I didn't know which city gate my lord entered through, we would have to go out of the city to meet him, so I can show my respect." In his teens, with a fair complexion, a slightly plump body, and a handsome man in brocade clothes, he squinted his eyes and smiled, and bowed to Wang Junlin with a dozen or so nobles behind him.

This is the first time for the dozen or so nobles in the county to meet Wang Junlin at such a close distance. I thought that even if Wang Junlin was not as fierce as in the legend, he should still be like a sharp knife out of its sheath, with a sharp aura Yes, but at this time Wang Junlin had a gentle face. If they hadn't known about this horrific deed, they would never have believed that this was the legendary poisonous general Qin Angong Wang Junlin. However, the white-faced fat man who took the lead knew in his heart that the more gentle and restrained this peerless murderer is, the sharper his gentle and restrained sharpness will be beyond everyone's expectations. What happened in the salt field these days is proof.

Then everyone introduced their families, and Wang Junlin nodded in turn.

"You all come here with a lot of gifts, why don't you come into the mansion with me, and I will let you have a banquet to entertain you?" Wang Junlin invited casually, not very enthusiastic, but not indifferent.

"My lord has been on the road for a day. I will come to visit you some other day. I just brought a gift to greet you today, so I won't go into the mansion to disturb you anymore." The suzerain of Wen's family, the most powerful nobleman in the city, also has the title of county magistrate, and also has a nephew in the county mansion as an eighth-rank official.

Wang Junlin was not at all surprised by Wen Yuanming's answer. These people purposely did not go out of the city to welcome them. Obviously they just wanted to show it properly, and they didn't want to be misunderstood by Mrs. Lu. .

Wang Junlin knew that the aristocrats of Fanyang County should leave the Lu family and express their surrender to him. This matter should not be rushed. Now these people came to welcome him and even sent him a heavy gift. With the results achieved, he didn't make it difficult for them. He followed their wishes with a calm face, accepted their gifts, and let them go.

As soon as Wang Junlin entered the mansion, Liu Ziming said: "My lord, there are people from the capital. They are an **** in the palace and a supervisor censor named Chen. They came in the afternoon. The lower officials decided to let them go ahead of time." Went into the mansion to rest."

Wang Junlin was a little surprised, nodded, frowned and said: "It's not wrong to let them enter the mansion to rest, but His Majesty has a secret order, and it's normal for the servants in the palace to come, but the supervisor Yushi from Yushitai also came. Can this still be called a secret decree?"

At this moment, Shen Guoer popped out from nowhere and said, "My lord, the details of the two people from Beijing have been found out. The name of the **** is Zhang Da, and he is His Majesty's confidant servant. The supervisor Yushi His name is Chen Sishi, and he can be regarded as His Majesty's original direct descendant of the East Palace, but he is actually Yu Shiji's confidant, and it was Yu Shiji's suggestion to His Majesty that Chen Sishi could come to Fanyang County with Zhang Da to convey the secret decree."
