Moonlight night.
A group of people were galloping on the official road.
They finally urged their horses and whips and stopped in front of the gate of the border town.
"Who is coming!"
The guard guarding the city gate asked in a deep voice when he saw the people lighting torches.
"I am the magistrate of Qiushui County, Qu Yin! I am visiting you late at night. I have something to ask you to see your master!"
Qu Yin clasped his fists at the soldiers on the city gate, and then added: "It's urgent! Please report it quickly!"
"It turns out to be Mr. Qu, please wait a moment, I'll send someone right away!"
The soldiers guarding the gate heard that Qu Yin was coming. After hurriedly agreeing, they began to make arrangements.
Following his arrangement, several soldiers left in a hurry.
The soldier hurriedly came to the city gate and opened the city gate directly.
"Master Qu, please come in!"
The soldier waved to Qu Yin and greeted him respectfully.
"Okay, time to work!"
Qu Yin nodded, and then led his team straight to the border city.
The soldier responsible for guarding brought himself a horse, and then followed him towards the city.
After they walked for a while, they saw several tall horses coming towards them.
The leader was a man with a strong back and a fierce look.
"Master Wu! Long time no see!"
Before Wu Youzhi could say anything, Qu Yin stepped forward and greeted him very politely.
"Master Qu, thank you for coming all the way! Come with me!"
Wu Youzhi also smiled and bowed his hands to Qu Yin, then motioned for everyone to follow him.
"Master Wu, I'm so sorry to disturb you so late!"
Qu Yin came here to ask for help, so his words were very polite.
As for Wu Youzhi, he obviously knew that he was coming, so he must be asking for help, and he was more imposing.
"Master Qu, what could have caused you to come to me so late!"
Wu Youzhi glanced at Qu Yin with some doubts in his eyes.
This guy, in his county government, didn't have a strong army, so why did he come to cooperate with him?
If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. You have to be careful and don't fall into this kid's trap.
"Master Wu, it's a long story. This is not the place to talk. Let's go back and talk!"
Qu Yin shook his head and took a breath, showing a look of helplessness.
He didn't have a good impression of Wu Youzhi, but in order to deal with Wang Lin, he had no choice but to grovel and ask for help.
If he is exposed, it will bring about a series of chain reactions.
At that time, his life will definitely be revealed.
However, if he could borrow a knife to kill someone and divert trouble to the east, then he could jump out of this matter and let Wu Youzhi be buried with him.
Qu Yin thought to himself that he and Wu Youzhi had arrived at his mansion.
"Master Qu, please invite us inside!"
Wu Youzhi dismounted first and greeted Qu Yin.
After hearing this, Qu Yin came to his senses and hurriedly dismounted.
Following Wu Youzhi, we came to his mansion.
Along the way, he didn't care to appreciate the luxury of Wu Mansion.
He followed Wu Youzhi in one breath and went directly to his study.
"Master Qu, what happened to make you so panicked?"
As soon as Wu Youzhi entered the door, he couldn't wait to ask.
Although he knew some about the situation in Qiushui County, he didn't know the specific details.
After the last time he sent someone to assassinate Wang Lin and failed, in order not to offend Qu Yin, he deliberately transferred all his men away.
It is precisely because of this that Qu Yin did not embarrass them.
A man who understands current affairs is a hero. Wu Youzhi's obvious display of weakness is also a sign of admitting his mistake.
Of course, there was no need for him to fuss with him.
On normal days, he wouldn't have spoiled him, but now the situation is special and they still have a common enemy to deal with.
Jingfang had already reminded them before, asking them to unite.
Anyone who causes trouble for him at this stall will face Jingfang's crazy revenge.
"Prince Lin, you have come to our county, everyone must know it!"
Qu Yin sighed and glanced at Wu Youzhi standing aside, his face full of helplessness.
"I heard that I sent someone to assassinate him once, but unfortunately it failed."
Wu Youzhi didn't know what Qu Yin was going to say, so in order to prevent him from misunderstanding, he directly admitted that he had sent people.
This is nothing to worry about.
After all, everyone already knows this kind of thing.
Hiding it can only make people look down upon.
"I've also assassinated him, but it's useless! There are so many experts around him, and we can't get any advantage at all!"
Qu Yin shook his head, and then added: "There are still a group of piglets in my dungeon who are going to be sent to build the Great Wall. They don't dare to take action now. I came here this time...to ask my brother to help me. …”
"Master Qu, Master Jing, didn't you let us deal with it a long time ago? Why are you still in your hands now?"
Wu Youzhi couldn't help but frown after hearing Qu Yin's words.
This time, he was really in big trouble.
These piggies they are talking about are people who are disobedient and need to be dealt with.
They were usually sent to build the Great Wall.
In this case, even if they all die, no one will be held accountable.
Because there are countless casualties every year during the construction of the Great Wall. This is something that everyone knows very well.
If we hold people accountable here, if the Great Wall cannot be repaired in the future and Xiliang soldiers and horses come to attack them, they will not be able to stop their cavalry at all.
No one dares to take on this responsibility.
"Hey... I was negligent. It's too late now. What should I do?"
Qu Yin lamented again and again, and said helplessly: "Master Wu, if you can help me once, all the free money I earned will be yours! As long as you can help me, I will give you another fifty thousand taels of gold. Personally lead the team to my brother's house..."
Qu Yin's words kept echoing in Wu Youzhi's ears.
Let’s not talk about fifty thousand taels of gold.
The free salary of these people alone is far more than this price.
The only time that Qu Yin can let go is now.
When the limelight is over, even if you ask him for someone, he won't give it to anyone.
"We need to take a long-term approach to this matter. Approximately how many people are there in Brother Xian's dungeon?"
Wu Youzhi was obviously tempted, so he asked without missing a beat.
When Qu Yin saw this, he sneered in his heart.
Humph, I was polite to him and even pretended to be so.
If it wasn't an emergency, I wouldn't do this.
"Master Qu?"
After Wu Youzhi asked, seeing that Qu Yin didn't respond, he reminded him again.
"Brother! If you plan on it, it should be about two thousand."
When Qu Yin heard Wu Youzhi's words, he came back to his senses and stretched out his finger to gesture.
"Two thousand people!"
When Wu Youzhi heard this, his eyes lit up.
Two thousand people's piglets can be fed for two years without pay, which is a lot of money.
This transaction is worth it no matter how you calculate it, not to mention that Qu Yin has fifty thousand taels of gold as a gift.
"Yes, two thousand."
Qu Yin nodded heavily and confirmed again.
