"Luye Masonic?"

Zhao Yu glanced at Liu Yi in confusion.

Before he could ask, Liu Ying explained: "It was not Lu Kuang's Luye Freemason, Lu Kuang's Luye Freemason, and his relationship with me is quite good, but because of this, he was hostile to another Luye attacking club..."

"Wei Pu?" Zhao Yu understood.

"Yes." Liu Ying nodded and said, "President Wei proposed conditions to me, Luyang, asking me, Luyang to expel President Lu and monopolize the market in Luyang, otherwise he would block the affairs of Jinggongqu..."

"Those two guys..."

Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little headache.

Wei Pu and Lu Kuang were originally the vice presidents he promoted. After his family suffered, these two guys began to fight in internal conflicts and seize power. Not only did the Luye Freemasons split, but Wei Pu was expelled from Ye County and Luyang by Lu Kuang, and had to move to Ruyang to set up a new door.

Unexpectedly, nine years have passed and the two are still fighting.

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Yu asked Liu, "What's wrong with Wang Dan and Ruyang Zheng?"

Liu explained: "I had agreed to the Jinggongqu issue with Wang Fengzhong earlier, and he agreed, but later he regretted it many times. I thought that he was afraid that after Jinggongqu opened the river, I, Luyang, would gradually take away his position as Ruyang... As for the Zheng family, Zheng family is now an ally of President Wei."

"What?" Zhao Yu frowned slightly: "Wei Pu and Zheng have joined forces?"

"Yes." Liu nodded and said, "The young master forced the Zheng clan to withdraw from Ruyang, but later in order to resist President Lu, President Wei reached an agreement with the Zheng clan and lifted the order of 'not allowing Zheng clan to enter Ruyang'." He looked up at Zhao Yu and said with a strange expression: "President Lu had quarreled with President Wei about this matter, but President Wei said that he was orthodox and had the power to decide whether to forgive Zheng clan... for this, the two separated."

“…”

Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel happy.

Not to mention, in the past nine years, Wei Pu and Lu Kuang have indeed beaten the ground for the so-called "orthodox". This seems speechless to Zhao Yu - these two people are not his sons, so why are they talking about orthodox?

One day, if a quiet girl wants to give birth to a child, that will be orthodox!

"I've come here, let's see if it can be solved together."

Zhao Yu thought to himself that after all, the Luye Freemason was founded by him, and it was his "son". Nine years have passed in a flash, and it should be taken home to his son who was wandering away.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu turned to Liu and said, "I will find a way to solve this matter. Please organize personnel immediately and continue to dig the river channel, and strive to complete the river channel before spring plowing."

Seeing that Zhao Yu took the initiative to take over, Liu and the other two were very happy and said it was true.

After a while, when Zhao Yu was about to say goodbye and leave, Ding Wu called him and said to him privately: "Young Master, it's better not to expose your identity when you are away..."

As he said that, he whispered the reason.

It turned out that when Grandmaster Chen, Xue Ao and others arrived in Ye County last year, Ding Wu was also in Ye County at that time. Although he regretted not seeing Zhao Yu, he learned from Xue Ao and Li Meng's chat that "Tong Yan, the commander of Liang County, was killed by the rebel general Xiang Xuan."

When he heard that Tong Yanzhong was ambushing, "Yingchuan Commander Zhou Hu" was beside him, Ding Wu immediately suspected that it was probably the second young master who had eliminated Tong Yan when he saw the opportunity.

He only mentioned this suspicion to Liu Yi and speculated, and no one dared to disclose it other than that, and he had never mentioned it to Xu Xuan.

Today, Zhao Yu took the initiative to show his true appearance in front of them. Although Ding Wu was very moved by this act of trust, it was precisely because of this that Ding Wu thought it was necessary for him to remind the young master.

"I see……"

After listening to Ding Wu's advice, Zhao Yu suddenly realized.

Not to mention, after Tong Yan died, he did relax a little. It was not until he heard Ding Wu's advice that he suddenly realized that Tong Yan's "unexpected case" had not been resolved. Tian Guan, the censor sent by the court, was still pursuing that matter. If news of the "The Second Prince of Zhao in Luyang is not dead" was heard at this time, it would undoubtedly arouse Tian Guan's suspicion and make the latter suspect the "The Second Prince of Zhao in Luyang".

Zhao Yu was also ready to take back his own things legitimately, so he naturally didn't want to be charged with anything because of Tong Yan - although Tian Guan might not have found the "Second Prince of Zhao in Luyang".

"I will pay attention, thank you for your advice from County Commander Ding."

“Where do it.”

After a few words of politeness to Ding Wu, Zhao Yu took Niu Heng, He Shun, Ding Lu and his group to leave the county government.

At this time, Ding Lu asked Zhao Yu to say goodbye: "Master, if you don't have any instructions for the time being, I want to go back to Zhengxiang first and go home to see... If the Master has any instructions next, just send someone to Zhengxiang to inform me, I don't know..."

Hearing this, Feng Bu and Zuxing immediately showed strange smiles, which made Zhao Yu guess the reason why Ding Lu proposed to say goodbye. It was nothing more than Ding Lu's trip to Kunyang to convey the message. He left home for more than ten days, and missed his wife Ma at home, and wanted to go home.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Who would have thought that Ding Lu, who was disliked by a scoundrel back then, became a reliable and good husband of the Gu family today.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, since that's the case, you will go back to Zhengxiang first. When I solve the troubles in my hands, go back to Zhengxiang to see you. I still remember that Ma's cooking is very good..."

"well."

Ding Lu nodded happily, and then took Feng Bu, Zuxing and Zhao Yu and his group to part.

Looking at Ding Lu's departure back, He Shun said in surprise: "I can't tell, he is quite a family member... he looks like a good person."

"Ha." Zhao Yu said with a smile: "You have never seen this guy. This guy was a bastard back then. Zheng Luo hated him to death. Rather than saying that he had become better, it was Ma who trained him... He Shun, when will you consider it?"

"this……"

He Shun suddenly had a cold sweat on his forehead and looked embarrassed.

He is more "career-minded". To put it bluntly, he is ambitious. He wants to do something big with Zhao Yu, so how can he be dragged down by women? As for physiological needs, Isn't it all over for a trip?

He said cleverly: "The boss is not married yet, how dare I..."

Before he could finish his words, Niu Heng punched his head: "Ahu asked you, why are you pulling me?"

I have to say that Niu Heng is very sensitive to such matters that are related to his own interests. It makes people laugh and cry whether he is really stupid or pretends to be stupid.

While playing and playing, a group of people returned to the inn and Xiang Jingnu briefly told the situation of meeting Liu and others. Because of Bier around, he omitted the part where he took off his mask.

"So, Jinggongqu is about to be completed?" Jingnu asked with some excitement.

"Ah, it's only a few dozen miles away." Zhao Yu took the tea handed over by Bier and took a sip, feeling a little excited.

After all, the Jinggongqu was a major project sponsored by his father, the Hou of Luyang Township, to be carried out by the county government when he was alive. As of nearly nine years this year, once the river is opened, a large number of merchant ships will inevitably pass by, and Luyang County can also be out of embarrassment.

Seeing Zhao Yu and Jingnu talking with a happy tone, Bier stood aside with her head tilted, feeling confused. She didn't understand what the relationship had to do with his master and wife when he built a canal in Luyang County.

"I will take you to the street in the afternoon. In the evening, Mr. Liu will hold a banquet to entertain me."

"Would it be too troublesome?...I thought, the county government shouldn't have much money, right?"

"That's true, but I can't refuse, right?"

"That's true..."

In the afternoon of that day, Zhao Yu took Jingnv, Niu Heng, He Shun, Bier and his group to stroll around the streets of the county town.

To be fair, compared with the prosperity of the big cities such as Xuchang and Liangcheng, the Luyang County is really not worth mentioning, but the memories here are not available in other places.

Holding Zhao Yu's arm lightly, Jingnv followed Zhao Yu to walk around the street while looking around, saying nostalgic: "Compared with the time the young master brought me here nine years ago, there is almost no change in the city..."

"Yes." Zhao Yu also nodded with emotion.

Of course he knew which time Jingnu was referring to, because he took Jingnu to the county town once in total, and this happened nine years ago.

In a blink of an eye, the second son of the Zhao family had become the commander of Yingchuan, and the little girl of that year was already a woman, beautiful and dignified, which made pedestrians in the past stamp their feet frequently and look at them in surprise.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little savory, turned to the quiet girl and said, "How about you put on the mask too?"

It seemed that I could hear something from the tone of my young master, and the quiet girl's eyes turned into a crescent moon.

When they visited the old place again, they were in a good mood.

However, Jingnu's maid Bier was not so happy. After the group returned to the inn before dusk, she complained to Jingnu with a grievance: "Madam, when the master and his wife were shopping in the afternoon, Bier originally wanted to serve her, but the hateful He Shun pulled me and did not allow me to get close to her..."

Hearing this, the quiet girl smiled slightly.

Of course she understood why He Shun did that, just to let them have an opportunity to miss the past alone. Not only did she not blame He Shun, she secretly praised He Shun for being able to observe his words and expressions, and was worthy of being the chief guard.

She smiled and said, "Don't be angry, come on, I'll buy you a bracelet, you can try it."

"Give it to me?" Bier was flattered and immediately tried it happily, no matter how angry she was.

Seeing the little girl's happy look, Jingnv seemed to be infected, and remembered the care she received in the village marquis's mansion back then. Her already good mood became better and better.

On the eve of night, the county magistrate Ding Wu came to the inn and invited Zhao Yu, Jingnu and his group to the rear yamen of the county yamen to attend the banquet.

At the banquet that night, Liu Ying did not invite anyone else, so he only invited Ding Wu and Xu Xuan. As for the dishes, they were more abundant than Zhao Yu predicted, including fish and meat.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu said with some dismay: "Let Mr. Liu spend money."

He knew that the Luyang County Government currently has not much money. In order to entertain him, Liu Ying probably had to put a lot of it in. After all, the price of meat in the past two years is not cheap, let alone wine.

However, what made Zhao Yu a little puzzled was that he could not see Liu Ying's wife.

Just as he was about to ask, he suddenly saw a little boy about ten years old delivering the dishes with a dish, which surprised Zhao Yu.

After all, as far as he knows, Liu Ying's only son has long been adult.

He asked curiously: "Who is this?"

Hearing this, Ding Wu called the little boy to the front, stroked the latter's head and explained to Zhao Yu with a smile: "This is the second son in the family, called Chong, the second son, this is Zhou Duwei, so why don't you pay a visit to him quickly."

Under Zhao Yu's surprised gaze, the little boy bowed his hand and fist to Zhao Yu, and called respectfully: "Boy Ding Chong, I have met Zhou Duwei."

While marveling, Zhao Yu also felt a little puzzled. Why did Ding Wu's second son come to serve the plate?

After asking, I realized that in order to entertain him, Liu Ying's wife was responsible for cooking tonight, and Xu Xuan and Ding Wu also brought their wives and children to help. The purpose was naturally to avoid irrelevant people from contacting Zhao Yu, so as not to accidentally reveal their identity or something.

It has to be said that in order to keep the secret of Zhao Yu's true identity, Liu Ying, Xu Xuan and Ding Wu were really cautious.

This prudence moved Zhao Yu quite a bit.

From the side, Jingnv stood up and said, "I'll help Mrs. Liu too?"
