I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Chapter 168 Brotherly Love

"This move is called Lao Yuan Hanging Seal, this move is called Zui Zhen Jiang Shan, and this move is called Qian Long Zai Yuan...Brother Lu, you and I share the same goals and want to make contributions, and we have become brothers today. These are The moves are the self-defense moves of my Ren family in Lingnan. Although they are not as good as the first-class techniques in the world, Brother Lu is more than enough to deal with thieves. The bento is probably a gift from my brother to Brother Lu."

"The old ape hangs his seal, he sleeps drunkenly in the mountains, and the dragon lurks in the abyss... I remember it. Brother Ren, to be honest, I have devoted myself to studying over the years, but I have never practiced martial arts. The Ren family's martial arts in Lingnan will open up my martial arts The road is to cultivate both civil and military skills!”

"What a civil and military practitioner...Brother Lu, come and cheers."

"cheers!"

"By the way, Brother Lu, who is the eldest brother between you and me? My birthday seems to be earlier than yours."

"Brother Ren, you must have drunk too much. You are obviously younger than me, so of course you have to call me big brother."

"Okay, big brother. I wish you the best of luck in tomorrow's Qingyun Palace Examination and your title on the gold list!"

……

Things that happened more than twenty years ago kept popping up in Lu Yuan's mind...

At that time, he studied poetry and books diligently and wrote about Taoism, hoping to become an official in the court and make achievements.

On the way to Beijing to take the exam, he encountered a bandit, and all his money and books were robbed. The other party saw that he was a weak scholar and planned to kill him and silence him.

It was at that time that Ren Xiao, who was passing by, took action and relied on the skills of the Ren family to defeat the bandits and save his life. Otherwise, he would have died that day and nothing would have happened today.

Then, he and Ren Xiao went to Beijing to take the exam, and then participated in the Qingyun Palace Examination with excellent results.

At that time, Ren Xiao was the same as him, only in his early twenties, high-spirited and ambitious.

Later, he was exiled to Cangyun County, while Ren Xiao worked in other places. The two were far apart, but they often communicated through letters.

Ten years ago, Ren Xiao was appointed as the governor of Lingnan by the late emperor. As soon as he took office, he sent a letter saying that he wanted to recommend him to the imperial court to serve in Lingnan and govern Lingnan together.

At that time, Lu Yuan was not as famous as he is now. Other students who participated in the Qingyun Palace Examination in the past were afraid of being implicated if they contacted him. What's more, he was only a ninth-grade county magistrate, and no one wanted to associate with him.

Only Ren Xiao, after his meteoric rise, still wanted to help his sworn brother, and was still willing to interact with him even in those years when he was in decline.

Lu Yuan didn't write to Ren Xiao in advance during this trip just to give them a surprise!

"Ms. sir..."

Ning Youruo, Lin'er, and Shen Shiyu looked at Lu Yuan's finger that was cut by the teacup, and their pretty pink faces were filled with sadness and anger at the same time.

In Lu Yuan's life, there were two people who had helped Lu Yuan earlier than these ladies. One is Jiang Linglong's mother, Ji Xinyue, and the other is Ren Xiao.

Ren Xiao is dead and his clan has been exterminated!

Under Lu Yuan's feet, an extremely powerful force formed a shock wave and spread in all directions...

"Master..."

Ning Xiaoyu said worriedly.

In the box next door. Rong Wang Jiang Shen was discussing matters with the shopkeeper Huang Laosan.

"Lord King Rong, Ren Xiao is your favorite general. King Wu Zhao Tuo colluded with the traitorous Prime Minister Su Quan and had the intention of treason. He killed Ren Xiao. You should be careful next time."

King Rong frowned tightly and said: "My king's safety is a trivial matter. Now there is a more important matter, and I need to ask the shopkeeper for help."

Huang Laosan said tactfully: "Prince Rong, please speak. As long as Sifang Inn can do it, we will have no excuses."

"Ren Xiao's wife, Song Wan'er, jumped into the river with her baby in her arms and escaped. Fortunately, she was rescued by my people downstream. Mother and son are safe. They are on the carriage in the backyard at the moment. I hope that they will be placed in your Sifang Inn. My honor The palace has Zhao Tuo’s spy, so it’s not safe now.”

"Prince Rong, this is a hot potato!" Huang Laosan was frightened. If King Wu Zhao Tuo discovered this, Sifang Inn would also be wiped out. "Prince Rong, other things are easy to discuss, but this is the only one." Something..."

Prince Rong waved his hand, interrupted him, and said: "In the past two days, I have received a secret report from Quzhou. Jiang Jingxian, the president of Shenlong Chamber of Commerce, is the daughter of Jiang Feng of Wenjian Villa. Moreover, She is also the wife of Cangyun County Magistrate Lu Yuan. Your Sifang Inn is usually attached to the Shenlong Chamber of Commerce... I must have made it clear enough."

After a pause, King Rong continued: "Well, Ren Xiao is my most capable subordinate. Now that he dies tragically, I will naturally not sit idly by and ignore it. I have prepared my troops and are ready to fight Zhao Tuo to the death. Ren Xiao's wife, no matter where she is placed, It is not safe anywhere, and only by leaving it to Lu Yuan or my royal sister Jiang Linglong can we safely fight Zhao Tuo."

"You also know that my royal sister Jiang Linglong has just regained Yizhou, and the troops are stationed far away from Lingnan. If they send their mother and son north, they will be attacked by killers and pursuers along the way. The risk is too high. After much thought, I Only your Sifang Inn is the safest."

"Shopkeeper Huang, since you are the property of Shenlong Chamber of Commerce, I believe that you have a way to send mother and son to Cangyun County safely. Su Quan, the traitor, has great power. The emperor's sister said in the letter that only Only Magistrate Lu can compete with him."

King Rong finally sighed: "Zhao Tuo was ambitious and extremely hateful. Not only did he kill Ren Xiao's family, but he also encouraged his men to insult Ren Xiao's eighty-year-old mother. The old man couldn't bear the insult and committed suicide by throwing himself into a well. If this revenge is not avenged, I swear that I will not be a human being. I leave Ren Xiao’s widow to you." As he said that, he actually handed over to Huang Laosan.

This was a great gift, and Huang Laosan hurriedly returned the gift, "Okay then, leave the person to us. King Rong, what are your chances of winning against Zhao Tuo?"

"King Wu Zhao Tuo was helped by the treacherous prime minister Su Quan, and there were countless masters around him. The chance of winning this battle is less than 30%." King Rong confessed.

"This……"

"Shopkeeper Huang, don't worry. If I die, the emperor will definitely avenge me." After King Rong finished speaking, the ground of Sifang Inn suddenly began to tremble, and it lasted for five or six seconds before stopping.

Just as the two of them were looking at each other, the door of the box was pushed open from the outside.

"Who?" King Rong asked warily.

When he came, he brought dozens of personal guards, all of whom were masters of the ninth rank of Grandmaster, but he allowed outsiders to break in at will.

"Song Wan'er doesn't have to go to Cangyun County, just stay in Lingnan."

Outside the gate, a stunning woman walked in.

"Who are you? Why don't you worship me when you see me?" King Rong was about to take action. He had already determined in his mind that this person was a killer sent by Zhao Tuo.

Ning Youruo's eyes were deep and she said loudly: "It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I can help you get rid of Zhao Tuo." Ning Youruo usually looks soft and weak around Lu Yuan, but that's only limited to Lu Yuan.
