Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 176 Murder and Punishment (Part [-])
"What are you going to do? If you dare to punish me, the Zhu family will be at odds with you!"

Seeing that Wu Liang finally looked at him and called him "Zhu County Prime Minister", Zhu Lu was so horrified at this moment that he couldn't stand up any longer. Don't protect me?!"

"This……"

These servants saw that the county magistrates ended up like that in front of Wu Liang, and they did not dare to be an enemy of Wu Liang, but as servants of the Zhu family, they dared not disobey orders, otherwise they would die afterwards.

So they all had to put on a bitter face, and stood in front of Zhu Lu.

However, the weapons they carried were all hanging down to the ground, and none of them dared to point their weapons at Wu Liang and Huan's army.

After all, whether it was Wu Liang's fierceness shown before, or the bravery shown by Dian Wei and the Huan army, they had completely shocked everyone present.

What's more, there are more than a hundred people in the Huan army, and they all add up to only ten or twenty people. Who dares to mess around?
"Take it! I'd like to see how brave the Zhu family is. They dare to lead people to attack the government office and commit disobedience! But if someone dares to resist, first the leader of the three young masters will be punished on the spot, as an example to others!"

Wu Liang had already seen the timidity of those servants, and knew that they were just putting on a show, so he didn't want to embarrass and torture them, so he gave an order immediately.

"Whoa-!"

The Tuan army immediately mobilized and rushed towards Zhu Lu and the group of servants like tigers and wolves.

Hear the content of Wu Liang's order.

At that moment, Zhu Lu's hairs stood on end, and when he saw the Tuan army approaching aggressively, he quickly shouted: "I surrender! I surrender! Please be merciful, the county magistrate! What are you bastards doing, put down your weapons quickly, No one can resist!"

How could Zhu Lu not be afraid?
He had never heard of such a different order in his life.

It is unreasonable for Wu Liang to treat his master as a hostage if any of his subordinate servants dare to resist, so they want to punish their master on the spot!
"..."

The eight elders were also taken aback when they saw this scene.

They originally thought that it would be fine for Wu Liang to teach those "dogs" under Zhu Lu a lesson, but no matter what, they never expected that Wu Liang would actually do something to Zhu Lu, the dog owner.

What's more, the order to "rectify the law on the spot" was issued!

Isn't this blatantly hostile to the Zhu family?

Even if the third son of Zhu is no longer popular and favored by his family, he is still the son of the Zhu family after all. If anyone can kill the son of the Zhu family, how can the Zhu family gain a foothold in Chenliu?
Therefore, once this happens, the county magistrate will definitely be at odds with the Zhu family...

In this way, first there was "the death of famous scholar Bian Rang" and then "the death of Zhu's son". With the influence of Zhu's family among Chen Liu's nobles, it would definitely make Chen Liu's nobles feel uneasy and divorced. I'm afraid there will be trouble again.

At that time, it will depend on how the new county magistrate, Cheng Yu, the prefect of Chenliu, and even Cao Mengde, the governor of Yanzhou, will respond.

And these three elders, all they can do is to stay back home and try their best to survive, and then drift with the tide like duckweed in the water...

But fortunately after hearing Zhulu's order.

All the servants immediately put down their weapons and fell to the ground to surrender. Without any conflict, the Tuan army had already controlled everyone.

Therefore, Zhu Lu was not "rectified on the spot".

It's just that Dian Wei carried him by the back collar, as if he was carrying a little chicken, and brought it to Wu Liang.

"County, county magistrate, I have something to say. Although we had some misunderstandings before, we have no grudges in recent days and no enmity in the future. I will not embarrass you anymore..."

Zhu Lu was still in shock at the moment, his face was pale and his lips were trembling, and his words were awkward.

Don't look at him usually relying on his family background to show off his power in Yongqiu County, he is called a majestic, but when he meets Wu Liang, a decisive and ruthless character like Wu Liang, his traits of bullying and fearing hard are immediately revealed.

Of course, it can also be called knowing the current affairs, a hero does not suffer immediate losses.

"So, Zhu Xiancheng admits that he did make things difficult for me on purpose?"

Wu Liang caught the loophole in his words in an instant, turned back and said to Yang Wanli, "Go get some silk and ink, and write down what happened after I came to the government office truthfully, and ask Zhu Xiancheng to sign and press his fingerprints."

"Yes."

Yang Wanli complied immediately.

"Sign and press fingerprints? County magistrate, I don't think it's necessary?"

Zhu Lu was taken aback for a moment, although he didn't quite understand what Wu Liang wanted to do, but his heart tightened a bit, feeling that this was not a good thing.

"Don't worry, third son."

But Wu Liang changed his title back again, and said with a smile, "You are also the son of the Zhu family. I and Cheng Yu prefect are close friends. Before I came to take over, the prefect Cheng Yu specially asked me to stay with the Zhu family. You don’t have to worry about it, I will definitely not treat you like I treated those county officials.”

"call--"

Zhulu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As a result, before he could catch his breath, he heard Wu Liang continue to say: "So I will send someone to report the truth to the Zhu family about what happened in the past few days, and send someone to dismiss you and send you back to the Zhu family. As for how the Zhu family will deal with it This matter is your family business and has nothing to do with me."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Zhu Lu's heart went cold again.

Murder and kill!
This is undoubtedly murder!

Zhu Lu was not very well received in the Zhu family, if he was dismissed by the new county magistrate and sent home because of such a trivial matter, it would undoubtedly be a great loss of face to the Zhu family. , although it will not directly drive him out of the house, he will definitely give up completely, and from now on there will be no chance of success.

What's more, before this, the Zhu family specially sent someone to tell him not to make things difficult for the new county magistrate.

That is wrong on top of wrong!
He has no skills, and he still doesn't obey the family orders.

Such a person is no different from a waste to the Zhu family!
It is conceivable that from now on, he will be kept in captivity as a waste, given some food and raised, and he may not even be allowed to go out again, so as not to be ashamed to go out.

In this way, he will no longer be able to live the life of freedom, wealth and unrestrained, sought after by everyone in Yongqiu County. It is no different from being in prison, and life is simply worse than death.

This is not without precedent.

His uncle, who once colluded with outsiders to try to separate from his father, has been raised in the backyard of his home for decades.

Although he is still alive, the living people are neither human nor ghost, they are no different from animals, so it is better to die...

"Please pardon the county magistrate. I know I was wrong. I dare not do it again. Please don't dismiss me and send me home. What do you want, gold? Beauty? You just ask, as long as I can get it As long as the county magistrate doesn't dismiss me and send me home, I can do whatever I want!"

At this moment, Zhu Lu didn't look like a dandy, he rushed forward and grabbed Wu Liang's arm, begging bitterly, almost kneeling on the ground.

"Really anything?"

For the time being, Wu Liang didn't know much about the internal affairs of the Zhu family, but seeing Zhu Lu's current state, he also knew that this move might have caught his real sore foot.

Originally, he dismissed Zhulu and sent him home.

In fact, I want to send two signals to the Zhu family:
First of all, he, the new county magistrate, is not easy to bully. I told the Zhu family to be more restrained in the future, and it is best not to stretch their hands too far;
Secondly, I have to tell the Zhu family that I have no intention of being an enemy, otherwise how could I have dealt with those county officials and sent Zhu Lu back to the Zhu family intact, I would still give the Zhu family some face, and I hope the Zhu family understands own kindness.

But what kind of reaction the Zhu family will make in the end depends on what kind of character Zhu Xun, the head of the Zhu family, is and what choice he will make.

If it is possible, I will not mention this matter any more, and the two sides will live in peace and harmony, and go their separate ways;

It is also possible to hold a grudge because of this, and often use the method of not tearing the face to engage in some disgusting little tricks in private. After all, the Zhu family has been operating in Chenliu for many years, and the illusion of connections and influence is rooted in it. This ability is still there;

Of course, there may be other situations that make Wu Liang feel troublesome...

After all, everything is in the mind of a person, and different people will make different choices. Even the same person may make completely different decisions in seconds, and anything may happen.

Reality is sometimes more magical and incomprehensible than fiction.

and so.

After seeing Zhu Lu's reaction, Wu Liang suddenly thought of another more secure plan...

"Of course, you just talk."

Zhu Lu also sensed a turning point in Wu Liang's words, and hurriedly nodded.

"Okay, then please ask the third son to sign and press the handprint on the silk first."

Seeing that Yang Wanli had already taken out the silk and brush and ink, Wu Liang smiled at Zhu Lu again and signaled.

This thing can be used as a legitimate reason to dismiss Zhu Lu and repatriate him at any time. This is Zhu Lu's handle, and Wu Liang must firmly hold it in his hands first.

"This……"

Zhu Lu took a step back hesitantly.

"Aren't you going to sign?"

Wu Liang's eyes were slightly cold.

"Sign! I will sign! But the county must not put me on hold for deportation..."

Zhulu said with a smile.

"Good to say."

Wu Liang nodded.

With Wu Liang's consent, Zhu Lu finally signed his name on the silk with great reluctance due to the situation, and pressed his handprint on it.

"Hahaha, the third son is indeed a cheerful person!"

Handing the silk to Yang Wanli to put it away, Wu Liang immediately changed into a different person, put his arm around Zhu Lu's shoulders, and laughed very intimately, "Actually, I was just joking with you just now, the third son was frightened, To be honest, since the first time I saw the third son, I have hit it off with the third son and developed a friendship with him."

"Come, come, please come with me into the mansion, the third young master. Let's talk and drink tonight, and we won't go home until we're drunk."
