Turbulent Times Chapter 972: I can’t bear to kill a child who can’t kill a wolf


"However... you must do your best to help me with the matter in front of me." Wang Junlin continued: "Influence some people you can influence, at least let them settle down, and go to the navy camp after dawn. I don't want the 20,000 navy officers and soldiers to cause trouble because of Dou Shihai's death."

Huang Shaoqiu smiled, saluted and said: "My lord, don't worry, if Dou Shihai is alive, he can still cause trouble, but now that he is dead, even if Lu Bian, the patriarch of the Lu family, goes to the navy camp to make troubles, there will be someone in the navy Help him, but you can't pull many people, not to mention the adults must have arrangements outside the city."

Wang Junlin nodded appreciatively and said, "Oh, what do you say?"

"My lord, you underestimated the loyalty of the navy to the court, and overestimated Dou Shihai's ability and prestige among the officers and soldiers of the navy." Huang Shaoqiu said calmly: "Maybe Dou Shihai can control a part of the army, maybe his confidants You can incite soldiers who don't know the truth to make trouble... But the current situation is that Dou Shihai is dead, and most of his confidantes have been killed by you, leaving only Lu Shijun and other four captains, and you have a secret order, my lord. , Regardless of officers or ordinary soldiers, in fact, they all have family members, and they are all citizens of the Sui Dynasty. Everyone is not stupid, and there may be some troubles in the navy camp, but there is absolutely no need to worry too much.”

Wang Junlin looked at Huang Shaoqiu, nodded, expressing his appreciation, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he found that there was a reason why Yang Lihua was able to write to this person in person, this Huang Shaoqiu was really capable.

Huang Shaoqiu was a little unwilling to give up. After thinking for a while, he tentatively said: "My lord, why don't you think again, take this opportunity and do my best to help you control the navy in your hands."

Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "I killed Dou Shihai. Although it was a privilege given to me by His Majesty, it is extremely taboo to kill an army commander without authorization. If I try to seek military power again at this time, I will only do it." Let Your Majesty and the princes of the court regard me as an ambitious person. I am guarded by everyone all day long, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything."

Huang Shaoqiu thought for a while, then nodded, agreeing with Wang Junlin's statement.

"Go do something." Wang Junlin said with a gentle smile, "In the days to come, as long as I don't take the initiative to find you, don't do anything for me, and don't let others know about your relationship with me."

"I understand." Huang Shaoqiu smiled knowingly, bowed and saluted, then turned and left.

"This Lieutenant Guo Yi named Zhu Yukun has never come to see me. It seems that he is very confident in his background! Zhang Tiangang, have you found out the details of this person?" Zhu Yukun, an officer of the navy, appeared, and a cold light flashed in Wang Junlin's eyes.

Zhang Tiangang came in quickly and said: "My lord, the arrangements have been made overnight. So far, there has been no news from the Lanyiwei Mansion and the Wulin Guild."

Wang Junlin nodded, guessing in his heart, this person did not come to him, probably because he has absolute confidence in his background, unless the person behind him is His Majesty the Emperor. Another possibility is that the backer behind this person is against Wang Junlin, and may even have enmity.

"Yang Su... probably not, otherwise things will definitely not go so smoothly tonight."

"The big man in the Sui army...could it be Yu Wenshu?"

A cold light flashed in Wang Junlin's eyes. If the person behind Zhu Yukun is really one of his enemies, this person can't be kept. Otherwise, if this person becomes a general in the navy, he may be killed in the future. Bring yourself a lot of trouble.

"My lord, Lu Youwei is asking to see you." The guard outside the door reported.

"Let him in." Wang Junlin thought it was time to come.

After Lu Youwei came in, he first saluted Wang Junlin, and then immediately said in a low voice: "My lord, I have something important to report to you."

Seeing Lu Youwei's serious expression, Wang Junlin quickly asked, "Second Master Lu, please tell me."

Lu Youwei said solemnly: "After I learned that Huang Shuren was pretending to submit to the Lord, I thought about it again and again. My father probably already knows our plan tonight."

"So!" Wang Junlin's face remained unchanged, he had already thought of this.

Lu Youwei said with a solemn and painful expression: "My father has always been scheming. Since he already knew about this, but still let me and Lu Jianheng come to Rongcheng County, it is obvious that the two of us have been regarded as abandoned by him, or We became my father's bait."

Wang Junlin nodded, still did not speak, waiting for Lu Youwei to say the following, he can understand Lu Youwei's feelings at this time, after all, it will not be easy for anyone to be baited by his own father I can't live with the saying of "wolves", but in reality, who is willing to use their own children to trap wolves.

Lu Youwei took a deep breath, suppressed the pain and hatred in his heart, and said: "Although my father has many children and grandchildren, and he is decisive in killing, since he throws out a son and a grandson as bait, there will definitely be some The follow-up plan will put adults to death."

Wang Junlin said noncommittally: "That's right, what do you think your father will do to me?" The matter of Lu Jianheng has become a fact. If Lu Youwei can't kill his father, he will never be able to return to the Lu family, let alone take charge of the Lu family and become the suzerain of the Lu family.

Lu Youwei hesitated for a moment, and said: "All along, there are two things about Lu's father that my brothers or nephews have not been allowed to intervene. Reason, even I can't intervene, this girl only obeys my father. The second thing is the back mountain where our Lu family's ancestral house is located. After it was designated as a forbidden area by my father in the family ten years ago, Only he can go in, um... and my younger brother Lu Youde can go in, and others, including me and Lu Jianheng, are not allowed in."

Wang Junlin frowned and asked, "Why did Lu Bian let Lu Youde in?"

Lu Youwei said: "Because my father loves Youde the most, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Junlin interrupted him and said, "Is it because your father loves Lu Youde that you let him enter the forbidden area that even you cannot enter?"

Lu Youwei was shocked when he heard the words, but when he thought that his younger brother was a good-for-nothing playboy, he shook his head again, frowned and said, "I can't figure it out at the moment."

Wang Junlin frowned tightly, thinking that it seems that Lu's biggest secret is hidden in the back mountain, but what will happen in the back mountain?

After thinking for a while, Wang Junlin furrowed his brows and snorted coldly, "Could it be that Mrs. Lu secretly trained a group of dead soldiers in the back mountain?"
