Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

"...Are you telling me that my mother's adulterer cut my father's eggs?" Gu Ding concluded as he sat cross-legged on a chair, resting his cheeks.

"It's not just eggs, he has completely lost his tools for committing crimes, and he will remain in a coma for a long time. You will be his only heir in name."

Tang Bo said in his heart that the adulterer is not me, and waved his hand lightly: "These are not the point, the point is that after ten days and a half months at most, your father's housekeeper and guards will definitely come to you, now you have Two options. Choose one, go back and be your little lord, if you need, I can help you, exempting you from the possibility of being controlled by stewards and guards."

"Tell me about your second option." Gu Ding blinked.

Tang Bo said without any psychological barriers: "The second option is that after you get the lordship, if your father's steward and guards are willing to serve you, stay. If not, kill them. Then Sanshu leads It is actually one territory with White Hart Collar."

Gu Ding curled his lips, "I knew you wanted the Sanshu collar, but even if I agree, Luma City may not be willing to hand over the territory to me to inherit. Have I ever told you that my uncle was ordered to throw me to death?"

"You said it. But there is an old saying called this moment and that moment, which means that at that time Luma City and your grandfather's family may wish you to die, but after so many years... I believe that the news that you are still alive must have spread to Luma City , your mother did not erect a tombstone for you, nor concealed your existence, but Luma City did not send anyone to kill you a second time, so we can try to speculate that your life has been allowed."

"Hmm, go ahead."

"So after Gu Hui's accident, you can try to apply to Lvma City for the position of lord, especially if your mother died just a year ago."

"The death of that woman is very important?" Gu Ding, 11, didn't quite understand.

Tang Bo spread his hands: "There is a kind of psychology called death beautification psychology. Suppose your mother is really the lover of a certain prince, he may be very angry at some of your mother's actions at that time, but when he knows that the woman he once liked has passed away, He will gradually start to miss your mother's kindness. He will start to consider whether you are really his own son, and thinking of what happened to you, he may give you Gu Hui's fief out of two mentalities of compensation and love for the house."

Gu Ding squinted at Tang Bo: "Did Bai Luling teach you this too?"

Tang Bo: "Of course."

Gu Ding rolled his eyes, "I am beginning to deeply suspect that Tang Bo, who was supported by a woman and had little ability, was poisoned to death at that time, and you are a demon who crawled out of nowhere and took over that bastard. Body."

"Then you have no reason to hate me." Tang Bo said lightly.

"So you are really a demon?" Gu Ding's eyes lit up.

"Children love to fantasize, can we continue the topic just now?"

Gu Ding gave Tang Bo a look of "I have seen through your essence", and snorted coldly: "Everything is your speculation, if Luma City just doesn't know that I am still alive, when I go to ask for the three tree collar, they think Me, what if you want to kill me?"

"This involves a problem. Whether you are willing or not, as long as the ancient family of the Three Trees do not want to lose their title and territory, they will definitely try their best to find a legal heir. Their first choice is you. You are young and have been ignored by your parents for a long time , in their eyes, you are a wild child who is easy to fool and control. At this time, your own wishes are only secondary."

"What if Luma City doesn't want to give me the territory and sends someone to kill me?"

"That's even better for the Gu family. If Luma City wants to kill someone else's nominal heir, it has to give a justifiable reason. If Luma City doesn't want to make the landowners around Sanshu Territory feel chilled and fearful, they will They will not take the method of forcibly taking back the territory and replacing it with another lord who has nothing to do with the Gu family. Then if Luma City really wants to kill you, they will definitely appease the Gu family, that is, choose a new lord from the blood of the Gu family."

Gu Ding frowned, "I understand what you mean. That is to say, if something happened to Gu Hui, they would come to me whether I wanted it or not, and whether I wanted it or not, the Gu family would apply to Luma City for me. The seat of lord."

Tang Bo nodded: "That's it."

"Then what if Luma City really sends someone to kill me?" The kid Gu Ding said viciously: "If someone really comes to kill me, I will definitely drag you into the water!"

"Are you asking me for help? I think you should change your way of asking for asylum."

"Get out! You are still one of the murderers who caused my mother's death, and you are helping me now to atone. Unless you admit that you are no longer the original you."

Tang Bo immediately said: "I am no longer the original me. Bai Luling transformed me from body to heart."

Gu Ding gritted his teeth: "...you are really shameless."

"Thank you. Do you want to hear my plan next? Assuming that Luma City really wants to kill you." Tang Bo rubbed the child's furry head, feeling physically and mentally at ease.

Teasing children is indeed one of the best ways to relieve stress, especially teasing a smart and cunning little villain.

The next day, Three Tree City.

The tax officials didn't want to stay overnight in Bailuling, which they couldn't enjoy, so they set off before evening and didn't return to Three Tree City until late at night.

The tax collector sent someone to call the gates of the city.

The soldiers guarding the city gate recognized the tax collector and the grain escort, but they still didn't dare to let them in privately, so they rushed to the castle in the center of the city to ask the lord.

The butler asked the guards to pass on the lord's order and let the tax officials in. The lord was unconscious, and they dared not offend the tax officials.

Piglet, who had been marginalized, noticed something strange.

He got up in the middle of the night and secretly observed the people entering and leaving the castle.

When he learned from a servant that the city gate guards came to ask if the tax collector should be allowed to enter the city, but the lord agreed to open the city gate to let people in in the middle of the night, he felt abnormal.

To say who knows Gu Hui best in this castle, Pijie thinks he can be ranked in the top three.

Although Gu Hui respected the tax officials on the surface, he almost never refused to agree to their requests, but Gu Hui was also very suspicious, and he attached great importance to the defense of Sanshu City.

Not to mention the tax officer, even if the lord of the Three Towers County, Earl Green Shield, came to the Three Trees in the middle of the night, Gu Hui would only let people stay outside the city in a good manner, and would rather take the trouble to send out wine, food and beauties in a hanging basket Even gold coins will never open the city gate to a team of more than ten people in the middle of the night.

Weird, definitely weird.

Did those tax collectors bring something important that the lord needed?

No, even if there are important people and things, Gu Hui will only let people hang them in with a hanging basket.

Or Gu Hui... was seriously injured?Too heavy to make good judgments, or to deal with affairs at all?

Yes, Piglet had overheard that someone had taken Miss Red Hill from the castle and wounded the lord.

Although everyone said that the lord was only slightly injured and he would recover after a period of rest in bed, but Piglet smelled something bad when he opened the city gate to let the tax collector team enter the city in the middle of the night.

Piglet's heart beat faster.

If Gu Hui was really seriously injured, and was so severe that he was unconscious, then the person around Gu Hui would be the first to kill him.

Because Pijie knew Gu Hui and the people around Gu Hui.

This morning, the steward came to him in person and told him that the lord wanted him to be responsible for other things in the future. In order to avoid his distraction, he asked him to hand over the only Zhuangzi under his name.

The village that was said to be under his name was not actually registered in Luma City, but was only recorded in the Sanshu Territory, indicating that it was a Zhuangzi rewarded to him by the lord.

Piglet didn't fight at all, and honestly handed over the certificate that Gu Hui gave him to manage the Zhuangzi - the parchment that recorded the size and shape of the Zhuangzi's land and the list of slaves to the butler.

The steward took back the parchment and told him kindly that the lord would give him a new task in two days.

Piglet thought at the time that he might not live for a few days.

In fact, he was waiting for someone to come and kill him that very day.

But who would have thought that Gu Hui would be injured suddenly, maybe it was because of Gu Hui's injury that he survived until night.

But Piglet knew very well that his luck could not last.

Gu Hui was already doubting him, rejecting him, and did not want him to continue living.

And if Gu Hui was seriously injured or even died, the people around him would not be able to let him go.

It's not just because Gu Hui wants him to die, but once something happens to Gu Hui, he, the illegitimate son of the previous generation of lords, will become the closest blood relationship to Gu Hui in Sanshu collar except for the young master Gu Ding.

However, the identity of the young master Gu Ding has some unspeakable troubles.

Although there are very few examples in Luma City of granting territories and titles to illegitimate children of nobles, but the rare does not mean that there is no such thing.

Here we have to talk about the bloodline of the ancient family. The previous lord was also a very suspicious person. After he succeeded to the lordship, his brothers and sisters died one after another due to various reasons in the next few years.

None of the offspring left by those siblings grew to adulthood.

Counting further up, the last generation of lords was the only boy in the Gu family, with only one younger sister, who was married to other territories, and what was even more pitiful was that he died of dystocia, leaving no offspring.

Further up, the blood relationship becomes more distant, and the possibility of those distant relatives obtaining titles and territories is lower than that of the illegitimate son of the previous lord.

Considering the particularity of Gu Ding's identity, if Luma City really wants Gu Ding to die, it will definitely compensate the Gu family, which can not only show the generosity of Luma City, but also make the new heir feel grateful and loyal to Luma City instead of his own family He is also the best candidate.

Piglet didn't feel lucky because he knew very well that the people around Gu Hui would never let him get that seat.

It's like if he really can get the position, the first thing to do is to clean up the people around Gu Hui.

At most tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, someone will definitely come to kill him.

What should he do?

If Gu Hui is still alive, he doesn't dare to expect too much, it is already his blessing to die without pain.

But now Gu Hui is very likely to be seriously injured or even die, and the person who wants to kill him has become someone around Gu Hui, so Piglet doesn't want to die honestly so much.

Piglet leaned against the window, squinting at the procession entering the castle with torches outside.

Because these people entered the castle, the servants in the castle had to get up in the middle of the night, making the castle a mess.

Chaos is good, chaos, he has a chance to escape.

Piglet took a deep breath, and suddenly he was a little grateful for this troublesome team of tax collectors. If they hadn't demanded so much, making the servants of the castle too busy, and making the butler surround them, he might not have had the chance to escape from the castle.

Gu Hui might still want to show his face, and he was probably afraid that he would counterattack and cause trouble when he was dying, so he didn't send anyone to watch him outside his room, but Pijie knew that there must be someone who lives nearby to keep an eye on them. with him.

But now the stewards of several nearby rooms have been called out.

Piglet changed into the slave clothes he had prepared earlier, quietly opened the door, took nothing with him, and slipped out little by little along the shadow of the corner.

Well, sure enough no one noticed him, Piglet quickened his pace.

The gates of the castle are now open to facilitate the entry and exit of the tax collectors.The servants in the castle came in and out, some were helping the food escort team unload the carts so that the mules in the trailers could rest, and some were delivering food to the soldiers.

Piglet lowered his head, mixed into the team of servants, took the basket containing black bread from the kitchen, and walked towards the gate of the castle with his arms in his arms.

When Piglet walked to the gate of the castle, he saw the butler walking and talking with Mr. Liufeng.

Piglet retreated to the wall with the other servants, bowing his head, waiting for them to pass.

"Is Lord Gu injured? Is it serious?" Liu Feng asked not very concerned.He was only worried that Gu Hui couldn't give him more gold coins.

The housekeeper smiled apologetically: "It's not serious, but I can't get out of bed for the time being. The pharmacist said he has a little fever, and it's not suitable to go out these two days."

Liu Feng: "This is really too bad. I originally planned to return to Luma City the day after tomorrow. I don't know if Lord Gu can get up when I leave. I also thought that he might want me to bring some words to the Grand Duke, such as His regards."

What did the butler reply, but unfortunately, the group of people had gone far away, and Piglet couldn't hear clearly.

The castle guards didn't check the food delivery servants at all, allowing Piglet to walk right under their noses.

That night, Piglet hid in the city for a whole night, and got out of the city with the crowd after dawn.

Piglet walked on the path to White Hart Collar without hesitation.He was penniless and didn't carry any luggage or dry food, even if he knew the way... Just because he often walked in the wild, he knew better that he couldn't live in the wild like this.

Even if he managed to escape to another territory, he would only become a savage without an ID card, become a slave if he was lucky, and be killed if he was unlucky.

Piglet was in pain and wanted to cry.When he "escaped" from the White Hart Collar last time, he never thought that he would come back again, so he walked back willingly.

But after thinking about it, his only way to survive now is to seek refuge with the lord of the White Hart Lord.

At least for that young master Gu Ding, he still has a little value.

Until the evening approached, Piglet, who was sweaty, tired and thirsty, finally stood in front of the stone house of the Tang Mansion again.

Tang Bo raised his eyebrows when he heard the butler's report, "Pijie?"

He admitted that it was a bit unexpected that this person came to him. He thought that this person had either escaped a long time ago or had already been killed by Gu Hui.

Butler Buff said with a subtle expression: "He said he has a way to help us get the three tree collar."

After seeing Tang Bo, Pijie told him flatteringly that he could help Gu Ding to inherit the Three Trees collar smoothly, and at the same time, he would tell Tang Bo the method of controlling Gu Ding, so that Tang Bo could actually get everything from the Three Trees collar.

"You said you have a way to control Gu Ding?" Tang Bo's expression seemed pure curiosity.
