Chapter 120 Bring a surprise to this little man
Han Zhuo didn't make things difficult for the two of them. He just smiled and said, "You want to live, right? Well, I'll give you a way to live."
Han Zhuo pointed at Xiao Ran and said, "She is the head of the Black Dragon Village and my apprentice."
"From now on, you must follow her. If she tells you to go east, you must go east. If she tells you to go west, you must go west."
"As long as you take good care of her, you will live a peaceful and stable life in the future, with endless wealth and glory. Do you understand?"
The two maids looked up at Xiao Ran and found that he was a young and handsome boy. They were so happy that they didn't know how to react.
Serving a young man like this is so much better than serving a fat pig like Lian Manjin.
So the two of them nodded in agreement and kowtowed three times to Han Zhuo.
Han Zhuo waved his hand and said, "Alright, why are you still standing there? Pack up your belongings and let's go back to the village."
……
at dusk.
Li Rongdun and Li Chongze were discussing matters related to the empress's enthronement at home.
Since Yang Pan'er's ascension to the throne is unstoppable, the father and son are planning the corresponding personnel changes after the empress ascends the throne.
Just then, the housekeeper rushed in.
Come to think of it, I don't know why, but since this period of time, the butler seems to have to rush to the master's study every now and then.
It seems like this is a bad year and everything is happening at the same time.
He hurried to the door of the study, but didn't dare to go in.
Through the study door, he said to the two masters in the room: "Master, I just received a letter. It was sent by someone from Black Wind Village."
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Rongdun and his son, who were discussing something in the room, immediately stopped talking.
Li Chongze quickly opened the door, frowned, and took the letter.
At the same time, as he closed the door, he couldn't help but mutter, "Wang Bolun is becoming more and more unreliable."
"They actually sent someone to deliver the letter so blatantly. Looks like we need to send someone to knock on the door."
Just as Li Chongze was speaking and opening the letter, his body suddenly stiffened!
He suddenly lowered his head and stared carefully at every word above!
Afterwards, Li Chongze rushed to Li Rongdun and said to him, "Father, something bad has happened!"
A lot of things had just been said. At this moment, Li Rongdun was drinking tea. Seeing Li Chongze's nervous and anxious look, he sighed quietly, put down his teacup and said, "Why are you so anxious too?"
"Even if something huge happens, you have to be steady."
"These days, I've often seen you so anxious and hurried. This is not okay."
"You should be like your father, remaining calm even when faced with a mountain of collapse. That's what it means to understand the overall situation."
Li Chongze was too lazy to listen to any nonsense and directly stuffed the letter into Li Rongdun's hands.
Li Rongdun slowly opened the letter and said, "Why is Wang Bolun's handwriting so ugly? Isn't he a scholar?"
However, after just a few glances, Li Rongdun could no longer maintain the calm expression he had just described as facing a crisis.
He jumped up from the chair with a "bang".
His attitude was even more exaggerated than his son's: "What's going on! Mr. Lian was arrested!?
"What on earth are Wang Bolun and his Black Wind Village doing?"
"Why did they only find out after Mr. Lian was captured? And doesn't Mr. Lian have the four great masters of wind, rain, thunder and lightning by his side?"
"With these four masters here, no one in Xuanyuan Country can defeat them. Unless that old ghost Lin Wuji takes action, no one can do anything to them!"
"Could it be that Lin Wuji took action?"
Li Rongdun became suspicious and even said that Lin Wuji would take action against Lian Manjin.
Li Chongze quickly stopped Li Rongdun's groundless suspicion and said, "Father, this is impossible."
"Lin Wuji is a great general. He would never do anything that would harm the Xuanyuan Nation."
"This matter is very strange. Of course, no one in our country could launch such an attack on Mr. Lian's convoy. It can only be done by someone else."
"Right now, we have to rescue Mr. Lian as soon as possible, and rescue those guys as well. No one can be left behind!"
"Otherwise, given that master's personality, this batch of goods won't be able to reach Daqian Country on time. By then, we will be in trouble too!"
Li Rongdun nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that person has a very bad temper. If things don't go his way, he will kill people!"
"In that case, let's make preparations early and send people to the Vanguard Camp to mobilize troops immediately..."
Before Li Rongdun could finish his words, Li Chongze reached out to stop him. He said, "Father, this matter must not be made known to outsiders, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable!"
After Li Chongze said this, Li Rongdun pondered for a moment and then nodded.
Li Rongdun said, "In that case, let's mobilize all the private soldiers in the clan."
Li Chongze nodded slowly at Li Rongdun's arrangement, then said, "Father, we still don't have enough people."
"Since these bandits dared to rob the Daqian Kingdom's caravan and even delivered this letter to our doorstep, it means they must be well aware of our strength."
"Whether it's the Vanguard Battalion or our private soldiers, they should all be within their calculations."
"For safety reasons, I plan to bring all the guards from Tiewu Fort out as well. This is the safest way!"
Li Chongze has always been cautious in doing things.
But Li Rongdun was a little worried. He said, "But Tiewu Fort is our root!"
"My Li family's wealth over the past century is all in here! If anything goes wrong, our family will be in big trouble!"
Hearing what Li Rongdun said, Li Chongze, who always paid attention to being cautious in doing things, smiled confidently.
He said, "Father, if it were somewhere else, your concerns would be justified."
"But this is in Xuanyuan Country. Our family has been operating here for hundreds of years!"
"Even if others are extremely brave, they won't dare to touch Tiewu Fort!"
"Besides, the 200 men we left behind are more than enough to guard Tiewu Fort."
Li Rongdun thought for a moment and then continued, "My son has always been steady and prudent. Since you said so, I will naturally listen to you in everything!"
Li Chongze was confident and smiled confidently.
"Don't worry, father. This time we will shut the door and beat the dog. We will never let this thief who dares to underestimate our Li family escape!"
"We will definitely uproot them and tear their tendons and skin off their skin!!"
……
At the same time, at the entrance of Santong Escort Agency.
"The Second Miss is back!"
Su Qingge, who was transporting a convoy southward, rode a horse and jumped down nimbly.
A few days ago, she received a task from Han Zhuo, which was to go to the south to find something called "rubber".
The Santong Escort Agency has branches in all regions of Kyushu, and even has contacts in the barbarian tribes in the south.
Han Zhuo originally wanted Su Qingge to send someone to inquire about an item called rubber that Su Qingge had never heard of.
However, Su Qingge saw that Han Zhuo cared a lot about the rubber, and according to Han Zhuo, as long as he had the rubber in his hands, he could speed up the process of dealing with the entire Li family.
For this reason, Su Qingge decided to go to the south to investigate in person.
She had just returned home and planned to rest for a while before bringing a surprise to this little man!
