Back Off, Let Me Come

"Shaoxuan, you..."

Shen Tang looked back at Bai Su in shock.

Yes, the response to "Father" just now was not the young daughter that Commander Lu was longing for, but Bai Su's false voice. The latter squatted down, his usually clear eyes tainted with a hint of melancholy, as if he was explaining to Zai Shen Tang, or to Governor Lu.

"He can't wait for his daughter to come over..." Bai Su said.

Bai Su heard the girl's voice when he rescued her. As a former professional elite thief, fake voice disguise and lurking are basic skills that Bai Su must learn. She dare not say that she has practiced every skill to the extreme, but she still has eight or nine points of essence.

"Lord...his injuries are too serious."

Seeing that Commander Lu was so injured, he was able to hold on for a few words with his lord. Apart from being a brave warrior and protecting his heart with his remaining martial energy, the biggest reason was the obsession and persistence in his heart that refused to go away. own strong will.

"And Miss Lu won't be able to wake up for a while."

How long can the forced retention last?

How cruel would it be if Rang didn't wait until he died?

Bai Su didn't want to meddle in this business at first, but just looked at Sheriff Lu and couldn't help but think of his deceased relatives. It would be better to let him listen to his daughter's voice and return to hell with a smile with the only joy, which can be regarded as giving him the last dignity and respect.

As a living person, she knows all too well how sad it is to be left with unwillingness, nostalgia and regret while dying.

"I don't mean to blame you." Regardless of the dirt, Shen Tang raised his hand and gently closed Sheriff Lu's intact, slightly open eye. The other hand gently patted Bai Su's shoulder, giving her a comforting embrace, "I heard that after death, the five senses and the middle ear are the last to disappear, so people can still hear the cries of their relatives for a period of time after death... …”

Bai Su was surprised at first by Shen Tang's action - her lord was several years younger than her, so she didn't expect that he would be as serious and conscientious as an adult to comfort her, and she felt calm in her heart - but when she heard the second part of Shen Tang's sentence, her face turned pale. .

"Lord, I——"

Bai Su replaced himself as the governor of Lu County.

Worry that I have done bad things with good intentions.

The regret has not been eliminated, I really can’t die with my eyes in peace.

"I just heard that, so don't take it too seriously." She looked at Sheriff Lu's body that was still carrying Yu Wen, and said solemnly, "I will take care of your daughter. I can't say how much glory and wealth you will give her, but at least she can Let her find a place in this world. As long as I, Shen Tang, haven't fallen down, nothing will happen to her. You can go on your way with peace of mind. If there are really six reincarnations in this world, I promise you - when you come to this world again At that time, the sea will be clear and the river will be flowing, singing and dancing will be peaceful..."

The breeze blows on my face, like a person sighing.

Shen Tang ordered people to retrieve the mutilated body of Governor Lu and piece it together so that at least the whole body could be buried. As for the other bodies, they were packed up and burned. She didn't have the manpower to bury them one by one.

After finishing these, there are other things to be busy with.

Although the homeless grass bandits have been temporarily repelled, there is no guarantee that they will come back again. Luxia County is leaderless, and the people in the city have lost their backbone. If they are not calmed down at this time, chaos will arise.

She ordered people to summon the officials of Luxia County.

result--

Looking at the sparse Luxia County officials with three or two trembling kittens, she said in astonishment: "Why, why are there only a few of you?" Such a small number of people are no better than the original Heyin Office. ,"What about the rest?"

She remembered that Governor Lu was quite wealthy during his lifetime.

Not like a pauper at all.

At this time, a young-faced man stood up, probably a newcomer, and he answered truthfully: "The others... have either escaped or surrendered, and only a few people like me are left..."

Shen Tang: "..."

Speaking of which, she still didn't know how the Luxia County Office was breached, and hoped that they could clear up her doubts.

Several people looked at each other.

Shen Tang saw that they were about to speak but stopped.

Then he asked: "What, can't you say it?"

The official said: "It's not that I can't say it, it's just——"

They were just worried that speaking out would damage the late lord's reputation. Governor Lu really deserved to lose in this matter.

Shen Tang thought for a while, looked at the guard Bai Su, and said: "There is no garrulous person here, just say what you want."

The officials still looked embarrassed.

Shen Tang had no choice but to wave back the guards on the left and right.

"Nothing happens here, you can go out."

Bai Su and Lu Jue clasped their fists, bowed and stepped back.

The official looked at the officials on the left and right.

Shen Tang understood and asked them to wait outside the door.

Only then did the officials start talking.

In fact, it's not complicated to say.

This matter has to start with Governor Lu himself.

As we all know, the former Lord Commander Lu has a stubborn temper and is different from ordinary people - other people choose people based on their origins and talents, but the First Lord looks at the person's appearance first, and then his talent, and does not care much about his background.

This is one of them.

Secondly, Sheriff Lu loved his wife deeply, and he also loved his brothers-in-law who did not suit his taste. Although he did not give them any important positions, he was always kind and pleasant, and he would listen to their opinions when he was in doubt. .

Whether to adopt it or not is another matter.

Shen Tang couldn't help but think of the eloquent staff member last night, and her guess was confirmed by the official's subsequent answer. That staff member was the most beloved brother-in-law of the Yue family of Governor Lu. He was eloquent and had some real skills, so he handed over the Luxia County Treasury to the other party's custody, and usually didn't interfere much. This person used this trust to secretly make profits and form cliques.

Sheriff Lu is a rough guy, obsessed with spiritual practice, and gets a headache whenever he sees complicated internal affairs. As long as the final numbers are met, he will basically not interfere. The brother-in-law of the staff member had successfully been fooling around for several years, and the deficit in his accounts was getting bigger and bigger.

This time, the refugees and bandits attacked.

With the temperament of Governor Lu, he naturally wanted to defend and not give in an inch. However, the number of enemies was huge, and defense would cost more money and food than attacking. The treasury that had been able to survive in the past could no longer support it. The brother-in-law, who was a staff member, suddenly panicked. If he had been discovered at ordinary times, for the sake of my sister who died early, he would have been beaten to the point where he would not be able to get out of bed for at least ten and a half days.

Even if it hurts, your life can always be saved.

But this is war time!

Lack of food and grass will sacrifice thousands of people in Luxia County.

This brother-in-law will definitely kill him!

For the sake of his own life, he racked his brains to find a way out for himself, and even tried to test Governor Lu's tone by insinuations, tricking him into showing mercy to the refugees and grass bandits, opening warehouses to provide food relief, and taking in the refugees, just to spend money to buy peace.

He was severely scolded for just trying this!

The brother-in-law of a staff member was so panicked that he had murderous intentions.

Behind the back of the governor of Lu County, he secretly communicated with the leader of the refugee grass bandits. Except for the city where the governor was located, the rest of the counties and towns in Luxia County were quickly lost. After the city was breached, it was the brother-in-law who gave the enemy a vicious idea.

Sheriff Lu has looked down upon no one in his life, but he loves the two sons and two daughters born to his late wife.

For the youngest daughter who looks exactly like his late wife, he basically wants the stars but not the moon. He also allows her to dress up as a man and practice literature and martial arts with her two brothers. If the eldest daughter hadn't been gentle since she was a child, didn't like armed weapons and preferred red clothes, she would probably have Can pamper the second rouge tiger in Luxia County. If you seize these few and threaten the people in the city, you won't have to worry about them being captured without hesitation!

My brother-in-law, a staff member, is not struggling alone.

If he just wanted to hold someone else's thigh, and stepping on this brother-in-law would not pose a threat to him, then the villains who embezzled and took advantage of him together wanted to kill Governor Lu. After all, after all the dust has settled, Sheriff Lu can't touch his brother-in-law, and he can't touch these people?

To strike first is to be strong, but to strike later is to suffer disaster.

Just don’t do one thing or the other without stopping.

Kill their entire family!

Sheriff Lu's youngest son followed his father to defend the city, but was hit in the heart by a stray arrow that came from unknown sources and died.

When Shen Tang heard this, she couldn't help but sigh. In addition to having a bad eye for people, County Sheriff Lu was quite upright and upright, but he died at the hands of a villain. She had previously thought that County Sheriff Lu's excuse for saying the child's death was an excuse, but it turned out that she wanted to wrong.

"Where is that young man's body?"

The official raised his hand to wipe away tears.

"You should be settled in the side room of the official office now."

"Send someone later to pick them all up and bury them alive..." Shen Tang couldn't help but think that if he and others had arrived earlier, maybe the ending would have been different, but there is no such thing as what-if in this world, leaving only regrets.

She continued to listen to the official's talk.

Not long after the city was destroyed, reinforcements arrived.

Sheriff Lu was threatened and tricked Shen Tang and others into coming in.

Naturally, he refuses to do this. If he does this, how will he stand in the world in the future? But he couldn't stand the fact that the people in the city were in the hands of others, his family members were also manipulated, and his brother-in-law was fanning the flames, so Sheriff Lu had no choice but to leave the city with a shameful face.

Shen Tang also knew what happened next.

Sheriff Lu never expected that a group of little people he never cared about would actually take the opportunity to massacre his family members. He asked himself, he treated them well, and he also tried his best to be kind to his brother-in-law.

The result was complete betrayal.

When he learned from Bai Su that only his youngest daughter was dead in his family, he lost his mind and the first person he killed was his brother-in-law. Hearing this, Shen Tang pointed at the table and asked curiously: "I can understand the first one to kill my brother-in-law. After all, Lu Gong didn't know that this brother-in-law only betrayed but didn't mean to kill him. But why - the second one wanted to kill you?"

The official's face froze.

I almost thought I heard it wrong.

Shen Tang repeated with a smile but not a smile: "I asked, why did Mr. Lu want to kill you second after he killed his brother-in-law? If you still don't understand, I can repeat it a third time."

She is very easy to talk to.

Official: "..."

Shen Tang smiled kindly, as friendly as chatting with a friend, but his words were not so friendly.

"Don't you think you know too much in detail? You asked me to push back the left and right officials, just because I'm worried that they will expose you, right? I'm just young and tender, but it's not that I'm not brainy. I still have basic judgments. .”

She asked: "You are Jiang Sheng, Jiang Xiandeng."

Although he was asking, his tone was firm.

The official continued to be silent. After a while, he slowly spoke: "Does this alone mean that I am Jiang Xiandeng?"

"No, but it's not a big problem. Even if I guess wrong, it doesn't matter. Your identity can be slowly tortured after catching you." He said he wanted to arrest people and torture them, but he didn't mean it in his actions. He also made a gesture of invitation.

"If you have anything to say, you can speak freely now."

Officials, really Jiang Sheng.

Shen Tang almost laughed and said, "You are so brave to come to me at this time!"

Jiang Sheng said: "Didn't Jun Shen say that he wanted to pry someone from Duke Lu earlier? I am here."

Shen Tang: "..."

She was joking.

Shen Tang naturally wouldn't believe Jiang Sheng's reason. Although she was a bit unruly in her employment, and her subordinates were more expensive than the others, she was willing to do so.

A single article and an isolated evidence, the only person who knew the truth was Jiang Sheng.

His words are not trustworthy.

As for the surviving Miss Lu?

She probably doesn't know more than Sheriff Lu.

Shen Tang wants to hear how Jiang Sheng wants to convince him, or to see what kind of medicine Jiang Sheng sells in his gourd!

Jiang Sheng said: "I always act according to my heart."

This has nothing to do with courage.

Shen Tang didn't want to beat around the bush with him, so he opened up and explained to him: "...I can see that you are not incompetent. I'm curious, where are you from? Governor Lu should be familiar with you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t know the details of such a long time ago, but on the battlefield, you took action to protect those grassroots refugees and fight against us..."

Jiang Sheng's stance is very intriguing.

She wanted to find out.

In fact, the reason is very simple.

Jiang Sheng was originally from the lower class of Lu. Due to some reasons, he could only stay in his hometown to make a living. However, County Sheriff Lu did not use him because of his reputation. He only gave him a casual job. He found out that there was something wrong with his brother-in-law, and he warned him, but he didn't listen. .

Not long ago, a friend came to visit.

This man had found an important position under the bandit commander and wanted to invite him to go with him. Jiang Sheng thought about the current situation and agreed to see how the "future lord" would do before making a decision.

When he met the bandit commander, he felt at a glance that he had no future. He also heard that their next target was Luxia County, his hometown, so he reminded the governor of Lu County and suggested that he not to leave.

The bandits don't have much food in their hands, and they have too many mouths to eat, so they can't last long. As long as they can't conquer it for a while, they will change their direction and find the next hunting target.

However, Governor Lu only listened to half of what he said.

Jiang Sheng has no moral integrity.

With that friend watching, he had no choice but to pretend to surrender and follow the boat. When the matter was over, he took his family and ran away. This place would no longer survive. As a result, what happened that night caught him off guard, and Jiang Sheng was not ready to escape.

He came to see Shen Tang.

Then the vest fell off.

However, this was within his expectation.

If Shen Tang can't even see this, then Shen Jun's brain is as powerful as that of a bandit commander.

Shen Tang: "..."

Does she look like such a dishonest person?

Will you easily accept a Jiang Sheng who is even more dishonest?

Not to mention anything else, Jiang Sheng's final move to save the refugees and bandits made people uncomfortable. This man used pricking on his hands!

Shen Tang deliberately wrote his emotions on his face.

As everyone knows, if he didn't take action at that time, it would be his friend who would take action. Kang Shi's "Seven Flooded Armies" would become a prelude to digging his own grave. By the way, Jiang Sheng also showed off his business ability, otherwise How to interview?

Shen Tang: "...I look like hot cakes?"

Talent comes to you on their own initiative?

Haha, she dreams faster.

She suspected that Jiang Sheng, like Qishan and the others, was just as worried as the Lord.

Jiang Sheng asked: "The national seal, why doesn't it smell good?"

Shen Tang: "!!!"

For the sake of a beautiful summer, Xianggu began to work out with Liu Genghong’s live broadcast. I clocked in for the next day and it seems like I will have a rest tomorrow, but there is a recording and broadcast at Station B, so I plan to be tough on myself!

All week long! Come morning and night!

Shiitake, who is not yet thirty, has less physical strength than my 66-year-old mother-in-law.

Alas, this won't work.
