Fish swimming around the world

Shentu Li was shocked. This man's ability to observe words and emotions was really great, and he didn't hide it at the moment.

"Shen Tuxiu died at the hands of the prince. Brothers Hubao hated the prince so much, why didn't they kill him to avoid future troubles?"

Jiang Fan said calmly: "Killing them will indeed eliminate future troubles, but they should have a greater role. You will naturally understand in the future."

Shen Tuli clasped his fists and didn't ask any more questions.

Jiang Fan didn't plan to tell him about this matter yet. After all, it involved many secrets.

After Shentu Li left, Wu Qu walked out from behind.

"He's a talent." He affirmed as soon as he opened his mouth.

Jiang Fan said: "Xingjun is proficient in battle formations, and he should have a good eye for generals. This guy may be an unexpected surprise."

Wu Qu said: "Calm and courageous, with the air of a general. In terms of martial arts cultivation, although he tried his best to suppress it, I still feel that this person has already entered the martial arts realm with half a foot, and is even better than the two tigers and leopards I have seen before. Stronger, maybe his actual combat power is comparable to that of Shen Tuxiu.”

Jiang Fan became more and more interested. He thought for a moment and took out a pill: "From now on, he will be under your jurisdiction. You will give this to him to help him."

Wu Qu didn't refuse. He took it and looked at the mark and nodded: "Xu Fu's handwriting will be of great use to his breakthrough. Congratulations, my lord, there is another general."

Jiang Fan smiled and waved his hand: "He doesn't know my identity now and has many contradictions in his mind, but there is nothing he can do. Let's leave it like this for now."

Wu Qu nodded: "The Lord's actions are far-reaching and should indeed be kept secret. But there is something, can the prince tell his subordinates?"

Jiang Fan said: "Xingjun, like Shentu Li, both want to know why Brother Hubao was let go."

"The Lord has seen clearly."

Jiang Fan had no intention of hiding it from him, and said with a smile: "Because the news will come out soon...it was the State of Wei that kidnapped Brother Shentu."

Wu Qu was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.

"...My lord, I want to involve the Wei State..."

Jiang Fan looked at his expression and knew that he was probably thinking of something.

"That's right. After all, I don't want to be a domineering master. Giving him a reputation of being linked to the Wei Kingdom will calm the hearts of all parties in the fiefdom."

Wu Qu said slowly: "It is indeed useful, but the Lord's intention is by no means limited to this."

Jiang Fan smiled: "Xingjun really understands that real games are often outside of war. I can tell Xingjun that Shen Tuxiu's confidence does come from the Kingdom of Wei. It is indeed not the King of Wei, but Cao Yuan."

Wu Qu thought for a while and understood the reason: "The King of Wei wants face and room."

Jiang Fan nodded, "But it's not just that. King Wei and I also have an agreement, which should not be broken easily."

This was the result that Jiang Fan achieved when he entered the palace alone when Cao Zijian was in danger.

Wu Qu was a little impressed: "My lord, it turns out that Wei has been considered for a long time."

Jiang Fan said: "Wei is the most sensitive about this matter and has to plan in advance."

"So, it was Cao Yuan who kidnapped the Huba brothers in name this time?"

Jiang Fan raised his thumb: "These three words are used very well in name."

"So, in fact, there is another person, dare I ask... Is it Cao Zijian?"

Jiang Fan greatly admired him: "You are indeed worthy of being Lord Wu Quxing. It is Cao Lao Er."

"In other words, Cao Yuan took the blame..."

Jiang Fan laughed loudly: "He deserves it. He originally wanted to use the Shentu family to take revenge on me. Moreover, he indeed wanted to recruit the Shentu brothers."

Wu Qu thought to himself, "If my subordinate's guess is correct, Cao Yuan did come, but was blocked by the second prince. Then, the second prince kidnapped the tiger and leopard brothers, but dirty water was poured on Cao Yuan's head."

Jiang Fan said: "Absolutely correct."

"But my subordinates still don't know what the second purpose is?"

"Hire people." Jiang Fan said directly: "The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are indeed powerful, but Cao Zijian wants to seize power and lacks cavalry, so I have to give him two talents."

Wu Qu took a breath of air. He never expected that Jiang Fan planned so deeply and acted so boldly. In order to support Cao Zijian in killing Cao Yuan, he actually raised a tiger to cause trouble.

"Are you worried about the relationship between Brother Hubao and me? It's okay. Since I dare to do it, I have it in my heart. Moreover, I also need them to be hostile to me and to put aside the cooperative relationship with Cao Laoer."

Indeed, the most ingenious thing about this matter is that because Cao Zijian knew the deep hatred between the Hubao brothers and Jiang Fan, he dared to use it with confidence and would not suspect that they were colluding with Jiang Fan.

"It's just that if the Haw Pao brothers discover the cooperation between the Lord and the Second Prince in the future, it may be detrimental to Cao Zijian."

Jiang Fan sighed softly: "Xingjun...Cao Zijian will confront me sooner or later."

Wu Qu suddenly understood that cooperation was only temporary and the opposition between the two countries was irreconcilable. And since Cao Zijian still wants to confront Jiang Fan fundamentally, there is no need to go against him even if the Haw Par brothers find out.

"By that time..." Jiang Fan said in a low tone, "These two guys will no longer be necessary..."

Wu Qu knew that this meant that Jiang Fan had arranged a back-up team and was ready to deal with the Hubao brothers at any time.

It's really a chain of links. Just one Shentu family was clearly arranged and completely drained of value. Lord Wu Quxing was filled with emotion, this Heavenly Fox Dharma Seat is really awe-inspiring...

What especially made him speechless was that when Jiang Fan came out, he brought the new county governor with him, which showed that he had already planned it.

This new county governor is a leader who emerged in the process of recruiting talents from all over Mount Li, and is particularly good at governing isolated cities. He once garrisoned the abandoned isolated city for twenty years by himself near the Western Regions, and managed the military and political affairs until he surrendered to the Qin Dynasty.

To make the best use of people, Jiang Fan, recommended by Prime Minister Zhang, chose the most suitable candidate without hesitation.

On the second day, a team of mysterious people sent hundreds of carts of finances and moved into the county governor's mansion. Jiang Fan didn't say it, but Wu Qu, the county governor and Shen Tu Li all knew that this was the property that the Shen Tu family intended to transport away. Obviously, these will become the funds for King Xiaoyao to build and Cang County. And Yu Wenchengxin, the disciple that King Xiaoyao brought inexplicably, also directly engaged in the financial inventory work. If he said that he had not prepared for it long ago, no one would believe it.

On the third day, King Xiaoyao announced a decree to exempt taxes for three years, and poor families could rent grain and seeds from the government and return the same amount after the autumn harvest.

This move directly made Hecang County boil, and the rumors about King Xiaoyao's tyranny were refuted. The people even regretted why the prince did not come to save Hecang earlier.

After cleaning up the Shentu family and comforting the people, Jiang Fan only rested in place for three days before the army set out again.

This time, there was no resistance wherever he went, and the people in the fiefdom were all in a state of denial.

Just kidding, this man had already entered the country with a large army, and he used the Shentu family to prove his decisiveness in killing. Especially about that battle, the news that King Xiaoyao waved his hand to summon thunder and destroyed the Shentu cavalry without any soldiers was spread everywhere like a whirlwind. This was witnessed by countless people. The rumors that King Xiaoyao was in charge of thunder became more and more intense, and the more they spread, the more outrageous they became, and he was given a mysterious and invincible aura.
