The most powerful patriarch in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 128
Rescue the injured team members and clean up the corpses, Lu Changle handed over to Min'an Wang,
After chasing and killing fleeing enemies and guarding prisoners, Lu Changle asked Yang Qijun to lead a group of militiamen to deal with them.
Cleaning the battlefield is the most important thing. There is so much money and food that cannot be lost. Lu Changle handed it over to Yang Zhengbao without thinking about it. His future father-in-law can be trusted.

After the simple arrangement, Lu Changle led the Lu family's children to be responsible for the cleanup and stabilization of Chang'an County.

As soon as he entered Changle County, Lu Changle couldn't help frowning slightly. In the prosperous county in the past, there were corpses everywhere. There were many naked naked corpses in the streets and alleys. Created by venting animal desires,

There were still many houses on fire in the city, and the people who survived the catastrophe were anxious to put out the fire.

From time to time, teams of Lu's children with weapons appeared, constantly searching and killing the thieves hiding in the city,

"Patriarch" Gan Hui and Lu Jinyuan saw Lu Changle entering the city, and hurried forward to greet him.

"Uncle Yuan, Uncle Hui, how is the situation?" Lu Changle got straight to the point.

Lu Jinyuan shook his head and said, "More than 2000 thieves burned, killed and looted the city. The people in the city suffered a great crime and many died. Now we are still chasing and suppressing them. It is possible that a small number of people slipped through the net."

"The young and the strong were driven up to the wall. Most of the city was full of women, children, old, weak, sick and disabled. After the thieves entered the city, no one could stop them. Only the county government and they did not break through. It is said that Qian Zhengrong hired many desperadoes to guard. Those thieves only want to steal money and women, and no one organizes them to attack." Gan Hui said with some regret.

More than 2000 people did whatever they wanted in a small county town for more than half an hour, and the consequences can be imagined.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block the way, be careful to catch you in and eat in prison"

While speaking, there was an arrogant voice on the street, and then two policemen in uniforms were seen swaggering over.

A policeman with a full face pointed at Lu Jinyuan and asked, "Where are you from? Is Lu Changle, the head coach of the militia, here?"

"I am Lu Changle, who are you?"

Seeing Lu Changle, the two reluctantly cupped their hands and said, "President Lu, Master Qian has been waiting in the county government for a long time, please."

Lu Jinyuan was furious and said: "It's a big air, and let our patriarch go to see it, why doesn't the surname Qian come to pick it up?"

The Fuzhou Lu family came to Changle County to rescue this time, so many people were killed and injured, Qian Zhengrong was not seen on the city wall, and Qian Zhengrong was not seen when chasing the thieves.
Now that the thieves have been wiped out, it's safe, and it's fine if you don't greet the meritorious personnel in person, and you even send people to summon him to the Yamen to meet him, do you really think you are a big shot?

The policeman with a mole on the corner of his mouth pointed at Lu Jinyuan and cursed: "Shut up, it's not your turn to talk here, if you talk too much, you will be put in prison."

An ordinary commoner, when will it be his turn to manage the affairs of the yamen.

Just as Lu Jinyuan was about to refute, Lu Changle patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, Uncle Yuan, I'll go and you continue to clear up those culprits. It's hard to clear up people coming and going, so just curfew."

"Okay, patriarch be careful." Lu Jinyuan was still a little dissatisfied, but Lu Changle chose to obey after speaking.

Accompanied by Gan Hui, Yang Xuan, Lu Changwei and more than a dozen Lu's children, Lu Changle walked towards the Yamen.

The savage-faced yamen servant was a little upset, and wanted Lu Changle not to bring so many people there,

When he noticed the big knife in Gan Hui's hand that was stained dark red with blood,

The words came to his mouth and swallowed again.

A quarter of an hour later, Lu Changle appeared in the county government office.

"Mr. Lu is really timely. If Mr. Lu hadn't appeared in time, Changle County would be in danger," Qian Zhengrong said with a pleasant face when he saw Lu Changle.

Lu Changle clasped his hands and said: "As the chief coach of the Fuzhou militia, I have the duty to defend the homeland. It's my duty. The money master Bo is overrated."

Qian Zhengrong said with a smile: "The leader of the bandit has subdued the law, and the bandit has been killed and retreated. This is the credit of Mr. Lu. Qian will definitely ask for credit for Mr. Lu, and ask the court to reward Mr. Lu."

"Then I thank Master Qian first," Lu Changle replied casually.

A boss still wants to ask for credit?This Qian Zhengrong really regards himself as the honor of a county,

Lu Changle didn't expose him, let's see what he really wanted to do.

Qian Zhengrong's old face twitched, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he quickly said with a smile: "Mr. Lu has worked hard to suppress the bandits. Now that the bandits are gone, why don't you go home and have a good rest. Let me leave it to you here." Just deal with the aftermath.”

After I said that I should take credit for him and thank him, shouldn't I show my loyalty to myself?
A dispensable head coach of the militia, doesn't he really think that he can sit on an equal footing with himself, the boss?
This Lu Changle is too out of line.

I heard that the Huntian Demon King came out in full force, bringing all the goods, food and grass with him. This is a huge windfall, how can Qian Zhengrong let it go easily.

Before Lu Changle opened his mouth, Qian Zhengrong quickly said: "As for those militia groups, just leave them to the officials. Now that Changle County is in troubled times, they will be recruited by the government."

Yang Xuan was furious and wanted to curse, but seeing Lu Changle's calm expression, she held back.

When the thieves attacked the city, Qian Zhengrong forced the common people up the city wall and hid behind himself.
Lu Changle led his people to fight to the death to kill the thieves, and immediately came out to claim the credit, and wanted Lu Changle to hand over the militia to him to command.

Why not go to heaven.

Having known each other for so long, Yang Xuan has also figured out Lu Changle's temper. When he is angry, he is more talkative. The more calm he is, the more serious the consequences will be.

Gan Hui has been standing behind Lu Changle, looking around warily.

The children of the Lu family who followed Lu Changle all the way in were very angry, wishing to have a good argument with the surname Qian,
It's just that the patriarch hasn't spoken yet, and they can only wait quietly.

The patriarch said that it doesn't matter if you play around on weekdays. After all, you are all your own people. When performing tasks, obeying orders should be the first priority.

Lu Changle stared at Qian Zhengrong and said: "Qian Zhubo, you are just a mere boss, you are asking for merit, and you are also asking for the honor of the county. Just based on your few words, you want me to go. Crossing the river and drawing boards are not as fast as you Bar."

Qian Zhengrong was stunned for a moment, and quickly said confidently: "Mr. achievement."

Speaking of this, Qian Zhengrong said with certainty: "President Lu, just go home and wait for promotion."

Lu Changle didn't bother to waste time with him, so he deliberately said with a serious face: "It's not enough, the demon kings of the sky-hunting come out in full force, with food, grass, and goods with them. After cleaning the battlefield, we will go home and serve celebration wine."

Qian Zhengrong's face changed when he heard this, and he said with a serious face: "President Lu, this matter is not allowed. The origin of the stolen goods is unknown, and even if they are captured, they must be handed over to the Guanfu. After the source is found out, they will be returned to their original owners. You can’t take it for yourself, don’t worry, this time President Lu has made such a great achievement, the rewards from the court must be generous, and the casualties and Xiangyong will also be compensated, and President Lu can just go back and wait patiently.”

It has long been heard that the Huntian Demon King ransacked the Yanping Mansion, and some of his subordinates saw the Huntian Demon King throwing away his wealth.

It's no wonder Qian Zhengrong wasn't tempted by such a large sum of money.

I am so eager to see Lu Changle because I want to steal the stolen goods. If I get those goods and find a place to become a rich man, I will not worry about it for ten lifetimes.
How can I use it as a small boss here.

"What if I don't agree?" Lu Changle said with a sneer.

Qian Zhengrong clapped his hands and said with a sneer: "Then you just toast and don't eat fine wine."

As soon as the applause fell, more than 30 people rushed out from the side door and the screen, surrounded by Lu Changle and his party, nearly half of them were holding bows and arrows, and the arrows were aimed at Lu Changle and others.

"Qian Bo, what do you mean? Is this how you treat meritorious people?" Lu Changle asked through gritted teeth.

Qian Zhengrong said with a half-smile: "I suspect that you are colluding with the thieves and attacking Changle County together with the thieves. We are now detaining you until the incident is clarified."

The treasures that the Huntian Demon King robbed must not be missed. Lu Changle has been too popular recently, so he must guard against it.

Qian Zhengrong had inquired clearly a long time ago that the so-called militia joint defense mainly consisted of Fuzhou Lu's and Fuzhou's Yang's, and the others were just making up numbers.
Grabbing Lu Changle and Yang Xuan, the Lu and Yang clans are wary, so they can only be obedient,

As for other militia groups, it has been believed since ancient times that the people do not fight with the officials, and they will disperse after being threatened.

Even if they are disobedient, the Qian family's children will unite with people from several large chambers of commerce, and there are still more than 1000 people,
Most of the people who died on the city wall were ordinary people, and Qian Zhengrong's people had been hiding in the back.

Lu Changle clapped his hands and said, "Qian Zhengrong, for your own selfishness, you hijacked the county magistrate and ordinary people, even those who have made meritorious deeds. Unfortunately, you chose the wrong person today."

"Bold, come, give it to me."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air, and the archers of Qian Zhengrong's team fell to the ground one after another.

Three alert archers saw that the situation was wrong, and when they dodged to the side and wanted to fight back, they were hit vitally by Yang Xuan's throwing knives, and they all fell to the ground and died.

A group of people with bows and arrows and long knives came in from the screen, the window, and the door. The leader was Liu Rufeng.

"If you don't want to die, put down your weapon and lie on the ground"

"Drop your weapons and get down on the ground"

Lu Changwei also led people up to control the situation,
There were two desperadoes who still wanted to resist, but Gan Hui didn't need to take action.

One was hacked to death by Lu Changwei, and the other was shot into a hedgehog by someone brought by Liu Rufeng.

"You guys who dare to kill me, this is rebellion, aren't you afraid of killing the Nine Clans?" Qian Zhengrong turned pale with fright, and forced himself to say calmly.

In the past, the Lu family in Fuzhou was very careful. In order to postpone the taxation, they rushed to give themselves benefits and please them in every possible way.
When the government was in a hurry, they didn't dare to resist the tax when they sold the tea hills.

These people, have eaten bear heart and leopard gall today?
Liu Rufeng didn't even look at Qian Zhengrong, walked over and saluted Lu Changle and said, "Patriarch Lu, are you alright?"

"It's okay. Fortunately, Uncle Feng came in time, otherwise we would suffer a loss." Lu Changle said with a smile.

Liu Rufeng, Chen Qi, and Shouhou set off before the militia was dispatched, and they had a clear idea of ​​the deployment of the Huntian Demon King.
It was a surprise that the militia was able to kill the Huntian Demon King, because Liu Rufeng and the others secretly killed all the lookouts and vigilant people.

Before entering the city, Lu Changle knew that Liu Rufeng and the others sneaked into the city first, so he went to the appointment with confidence.

Qian Zhengrong in the city must be the focus of surveillance,
If there is a crisis, Liu Rufeng will definitely remind or stop it, but there has been no movement, which shows that the matter is under his control.

Besides, with Gan Hui, Yang Xuan, Lu Changsheng and others around, Lu Changle is not afraid of Qian Zhengrong's tricks,

The entire Changle City is his own people, so what are you afraid of.

Liu Rufeng laughed: "Big Brother and Ms. Yang are here, there is absolutely no surprise, I just haven't shown any performance, and I'm just trying to get some credit."

"Mr. Lu, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, Qian was just joking, as long as Mr. Lu ignores the past, the younger one is willing to work hard for Mr. Lu. Not only the county government, but the entire Changle County, listen to Mr. Lu." Yes." Qian Zhengrong knelt on the ground and said flatteringly.

More than a dozen archers, Lu Changle killed as soon as he said, which showed that he didn't have much respect for himself,

The identity of the chief bookkeeper can't frighten him, the man can bend and stretch, so he can only beg for mercy.

The entire Changle city was controlled by people from the Lu family in Fuzhou. They failed to report to Lu Changle in the first place, so they could only kneel down and beg for mercy.

Lu Changle walked by with a smile, Qian Zhengrong saw that Lu Changle smiled, and he also laughed along with him, lifting up slightly so that Lu Changle could help him up,

Many people thought that when Lu Changle was about to help Qian Zhengrong, they saw Lu Changle suddenly kicked out,

Kicking Qian Zhengrong to the ground with one kick, he said with a sneer while kicking hard: "Qian, when you colluded with Fan San to plot the tea mountain of our Lu family, you never thought about today."

"I let you play tricks"

"I let you play tricks"

"I let you play tricks"

Lu Changle kicked him as soon as he cursed, and kicked him more than 30 times in a row.

Qian Zhengrong spat out a mouthful of black blood with a bang, looked at Lu Changle as if he was looking at a devil, and stammered, "No, no, you can't kill me, I'm an official of the imperial court, but you will be punished if you kill me." Those who punish the Nine Clans can't kill them, and they can't kill me."

This time Qian Zhengrong was really scared.

Lu Changle didn't bother to pay attention to him, and directly asked Mu Sheng and Liu Rufeng to detain Qian Zhengrong and those subordinates separately for interrogation.

Mu Sheng has been particularly interested in interrogation and torture since he experienced blackmailing those meat tickets and participated in the execution of Fan Sanbo and Fan Chengyin.

Lu Changle simply discovered him in this direction, now Liu Rufeng, Chen Qi and others need to interrogate and torture when they inquire about information, and hand them over to Mu Sheng.
I heard that this kid is very talented and almost has no hands.

Lu Changwei, Shouhou and the others were not idle, and began to search the entire county government.
I heard that Qian Zhengrong took advantage of the chaos to put the county magistrate Zhou Jintao under house arrest and turned the county government into his own territory.
He colluded with local rich and powerful families, extorted violently in the county, and the common people called him Zhou Papi behind their backs,
The gold and silver treasures that have been looted cannot be wasted. Now they have to recruit soldiers and buy horses, spending money like water, and they are short of money.

Soon, screams came from the next door, and there was even the creepy sound of broken bones. Needless to say, Mu Sheng and the others began to torture,

Lu Changle looked at Yang Xuan beside him, and couldn't help but said: "Xuan'er, it's still chaotic outside, I'm afraid Uncle Yuan and the others won't be able to take care of it, you are good at martial arts, or help take care of it."

"Okay, I'll go." Yang Xuan only hesitated for a moment, and quickly agreed.

Obviously, Lu Changle would not let people like Qian Zhengrong go, fearing that the interrogation process would be too bloody, so he deliberately distracted himself.

Yang Xuan didn't like this kind of occasion either, so she nodded in agreement.

Lu Changle was worried about her, so he sent four Lu's children to protect her.

Not long after Yang Xuan left, the thin monkey walked out from the back office quickly: "Patriarch, brother Changwei let you go."

Lu Changle knew that it was difficult for Lu Changwei to make a decision, so he nodded and walked to the back office with the thin monkey.

Go all the way to a small independent courtyard in Houya,

Lu Changwei, who was at the door, saw Lu Changle coming, and rushed to meet him: "Patriarch, there are two women inside, I don't know how to deal with them."

Lu Changle walked in, and saw a woman in her mid-mature age with still charm, hugging a girl about thirteen or fourteen tightly. ,
At first glance, the two daughters look and have similar temperaments, as if printed from the same mold, they should be mother and daughter.

It's just that the faces of the two of them were so pale that they were a little scary, obviously frightened, trembling all over, like two frightened birds.

Lu Changwei explained in a low voice: "Patriarch, they are the wife and daughter of County Magistrate Zhou. Qian Zhengrong locked them here and asked them to sleep with their mother and daughter. If they disobeyed, they would beat them up. It's so pitiful."

Lu Changle sized up the mother and daughter, suppressed his anger and said, "Where is Magistrate Zhou?"

After the outbreak of the plague, Fujian was in chaos, especially when Zheng Zhilong left with the main force, there was a power vacuum in many places,

All kinds of ghosts and snake spirits have come out. Qian Zhengrong relied on his business in Changle County for many years, and united with his confidantes to evade the county magistrate.
Not to mention stealing power, even disregarding the feelings of colleagues, and humiliating the wife and daughter of the first wife together, it is simply a beast.

Lu Changwei pointed to the floor of the room and said, "Mrs. Zhou said that when the Huntian Demon King attacked the city, Qian Zhengrong was afraid that the county magistrate Zhou would take the opportunity to escape, and he was also afraid that the matter would be exposed. When she strangled the magistrate Zhou to death in front of her, he buried him in the room." inside."

What, buried in the room?
Lu Changle took the lantern to shine a light on it, sure enough, there were traces of newly turning over the ground,
Not only is Qian Zhengrong inhumane, he is simply a pervert.
Insulting other people's wives and daughters, killing her husband face to face, and burying them in the room where the mother and daughter were held, the mentality is too twisted to do such a thing,

The lesson just now is still light, if I knew I kicked a few more feet just now,
I hope that Gan Hui's movements will not be so big, so that he dies too easily.

"Young Master" This is the woman who was huddled in the corner of the bed and suddenly knelt on the bed, kowtowed repeatedly to Lu Changle, and cried while kowtowing: "Qian Zhengrong is simply a beast, he killed my husband, I implore you to avenge my slave, As long as the young master avenges our mother and daughter, he is also willing to serve as a slave or a handmaid, as an ox or a horse."

"I beg you to kill Qian Zhengrong to avenge your father, and Yue'er is willing to be a slave or a maidservant, a cow or a horse." Zhou Yue also imitated her mother, running on the bed and kowtowing repeatedly.

Gan Hui, who was doing his best to protect Lu Changle, couldn't help scolding "animal".

At this time, a disciple named Lu Changguang came over and said angrily: "Patriarch, Brother Changwei, I found a kiln in the rockery in the backyard, and more than a dozen young women were imprisoned in it. I interrogated the thugs in the backyard, and they said it was Qian. Zhengrong sent people to snatch them back from the outside, all of them are girls from good families, and they are used to reward their confidants and subordinates, and to buy people's hearts."

Lu Changle's face was livid, and he immediately ordered: "Chang Guang, go, let Mu Sheng loosen his hand, don't kill him."

"Patriarch, I'll go right away"

After Lu Changguang left, Lu Changle turned to the mother and daughter who were still kowtowing on the bed and said, "Mrs. Zhou, Miss Zhou please stand up. I agree to your request."

For the sake of his own selfishness, Qian Zhengrong has no limit to what he can do, and he can't let him go no matter what.

"Thank you son, thank you son" the mother and daughter wept with joy and kowtowed three more times before they got up.

Seeing that they were cold and hungry, Lu Changle asked them to find two clothes for them to wear, and got them some food,

After the mother and daughter finished eating, Mu Sheng and Liu Rufeng also finished their interrogation, and dragged Qian Zhengrong to Lu Changle.

"Patriarch, this trash is useless at all, it only took a little punishment, and it recruited everything," Mu Sheng said with some disappointment.

This man surnamed Qian is afraid of pain and can't bear hardships. When torture is used, it's like beans being poured out of a bamboo tube.
I have a few new criminal techniques that I haven't tried yet.
