Chapter 177 I’ll lend you my head!
Wei Caiqin listened, a smile gradually appeared on her face, she nodded and whispered: "Do you want me to inform my eldest brother and ask him for help?"
"The eldest son cannot participate in this matter openly, but he can take care of it secretly."
"Okay, I'll go inform Big Brother right away!"
"Brother, wait a minute..." Ye Kun pulled Wei Caiqin back.
"Anything else you need?"
"No instructions, I just wanted to thank you..."
Ye Kun put his arms around Wei Caiqin's waist and lowered his head to kiss her.
"Um...Brother Ye..."
Wei Caiqin pushed him gently, and then hugged Ye Kun even tighter.
Ye Kun was humiliated at the banquet today, but unexpectedly, he was comforted by Wei Caiqin.
This can be considered a blessing in disguise.
The two of them lingered for a long time and almost made it a done deal.
"Brother Ye, I should...go find my brother."
Wei Caiqin was still quite reserved. She pushed Ye Kun away at the critical moment and said with a low laugh, "I'll go find my brother first, and I'll come to Dongba County to see you later."
"Good sister, let me take another look at you."
Ye Kun held Wei Caiqin's face, looked at her for a long time, and said with a smile: "Today, I will be worth it even if I die in Jingzhou."
"Don't talk nonsense, there is a long way to go." Wei Caiqin punched over with her little fist and whispered:
"My father loves me very much and agrees to everything I ask for. When Brother Ye comes again in a while and mentions our matter, my father will agree."
"Let's do tonight's business first."
Ye Kun nodded and tidied Wei Caiqin's clothes.
Wei Caiqin finished tidying up, wiped her mouth, and left with the sword.
Ye Kun immediately summoned Wang Da Kui, the twenty scout masters he brought with him, and the young man Lu Erniu from Lujiabao.
Lu Erniu's family was destroyed by the lord of Lujiabao. In order to thank Ye Kun for avenging him, he vowed to follow Ye Kun until death. He has been training in the military camp for several months and has become more courageous and ruthless.
Ye Kun closed the door, frowned and said:
"Today at the Second Young Master's house, I was humiliated. Brothers, how do you think I can save my face?"
"If the king insults his subjects, they will die. There is nothing to say!"
Wang Da Kui gnashed his teeth and whispered, "Brother, leave Jingzhou first. I will take 20 brothers and attack Wei Kang's mansion at night to vent your anger for you!"
The other brothers were ready to die and said together, "Master Ye, go first, and leave the rest to us."
"No, I stand with you brothers."
Ye Kun waved his hand: "Besides, our target is not the Second Young Master, but Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan. Killing the Second Young Master will not benefit us; killing Shangguan Shunan can solve the worries of Tianmen County."
Wang Da Kui asked, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
Ye Kun ordered several smart scouts:
"Wei Caiqin said that the residences of Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan are next to each other, both on Zhuque Street inside the South Gate. You should go and investigate secretly first and familiarize yourself with the attack and exit routes."
The four scouts received the order and left.
The scouts brought this time are all experts in reconnaissance, and are versatile in combat, assassination and shooting.
The purpose of bringing them here is to understand the layout and defense of Jingzhou City and make plans for the future.
Ye Kun also instructed Wang Da Kui: "Da Kui and Lu Erniu, take the other brothers, prepare swords and weapons, and keep it secret."
Wang Da Kui nodded and did it immediately.
Ye Kun also arranged for his confidants to set off immediately, sailing to Tianmen County and asking Shangguan Jifu to bring 500 naval forces to meet them.
Then Ye Kun informed Liu Hongyu and asked his followers to pack up, saying only that they might return overnight without saying anything else.
Liu Hongyu and others must not know about tonight’s special operation.
After all, women are timid.
Before dark, two scouts returned and reported in a low voice:
"Master Ye, we have already checked everything. Biao Lu and Shangguan Shunan's residences are next to each other. Biao Lu's family has more than a dozen people, young and old; Shangguan Shunan's family has only him, two followers, three maids and concubines. There are no special guards in the two houses, just like ordinary families."
Ye Kun nodded: "Go and tell the brothers to change into black night clothes after dark, hide their weapons, and sneak into Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan's house together!"
The scout took the order and left.
After dinner, everything was cleaned up.
Wei Caiqin rode over, showed her father's warrant, winked and said:
"Master Ye, I have obtained my father's warrant. Since you have important matters to attend to, you can leave at any time."
The military orders in Jingzhou were strict, and after dark, the four gates were closed.
No one is allowed to leave the city without Wei Dingshan's order.
"Thank you, Miss Third!"
Ye Kun nodded and smiled, and instructed Liu Hongyu and other subordinates: "Take your carriages and luggage and go to the west gate first. After leaving the city, go to the riverside and board the boat immediately. Brother Da Kui and I will be here later."
Liu Hongyu nodded and set off immediately.
The luggage had already been loaded onto the car and everyone had packed up.
Wei Caiqin took her father's order and escorted Liu Hongyu and others out of the city first.
Ye Kun changed into night clothes, wore soft armor, hid a sharp blade in his sleeve, and went his separate ways with his brothers, quietly heading for Suzaku Street.
There were also two scouts who stayed on Zhuque Street to monitor Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan.
Seeing Ye Kun, the scout reported in a low voice: "Master Ye, Biao Lu is drinking at Shangguan Shunan's house right now. We can climb over the wall from the backyard and get in."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "If they are together, it will save me a lot of trouble. You guys split up and sneak into the backyard first!"
"As ordered!"
The scout received the order and left.
Shangguan Jifu lived in Jingzhou. He had no soldiers under his command, only two personal followers and several maids and concubines to serve him.
There was almost no defense and night guard.
Ye Kun's scouts, dressed in black, quietly entered the backyard, first controlled the cook in the kitchen, and then approached the front hall.
Ye Kun, Wang Dakui and Lu Erniu then entered the yard.
As they approached the back door of the front hall, they heard Lu Biao laughing and saying to Shangguan Shunan:
"Third Young Master, today Second Young Master Wei Kang vented his anger for you and me, and we also scolded Ye Kun, and we feel much better now!"
Shangguan Shunan smiled and said, "I still have some money in my hand. I will find a chance to give it to the second young master. Please ask the second young master to advise Lord Wei to raise an army to attack Tianmen County and Dongba County. When the time comes, I will return to Tianmen County, and Lord Lu can go to Dongba County."
Biao Lu sighed: "I'm afraid Lord Wei won't agree. I think Lord Wei thinks highly of Ye Kun..."
Ye Kun smiled when he heard this and waved at his men.
Without saying a word, everyone rushed in with swords drawn.
Shangguan Shunan's two close followers were still in a daze when they were knocked to the ground by Wang Da Kui and Lu Erniu.
"who!"
Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan were shocked and stood up and drew their swords.
"do not move!"
Ye Kun's men rushed forward, and the swords were aimed at the throats of Lu Biao and the other man.
The other scouts took control of the maids and concubines in the house.
"it's me!"
Ye Kun walked out slowly: "Lord Lu, Third Brother Shangguan, we meet again."
"Ye thief, it's you!"
Lu Biao and Shangguan Shunan were shocked and their faces changed suddenly.
"Yes, it's me!"
Ye Kun sat down, poured himself a drink, and cut some meat with his sword, sneering:
"I originally let you go. Especially Lord Lu, I let your whole family go, including your brother-in-law Jin Daorong. But you refused to forgive me, saying that the hatred will never end. So I had no choice but to come here to settle this feud."
"Ye Kun, you dare..."
Lu Biao began to shiver.
"Old man, are you sick?" Ye Kun swung the big pork elbow in his hand and hit Lu Biao in the face:
"I can understand that Shangguan Shunan hates me. But I have done nothing wrong to you. You occupied my Cigu County and Lingshan County, and attacked Pingye County. I did not kill your whole family. Am I not doing my best? You have food and drink in Jingzhou, and you are enjoying your old age. Why are you making trouble?"
Lu Biao finally knelt down: "Master Ye, I am... confused, damn it, please forgive me..."
"I'm sorry, but I won't forgive you again."
Ye Kun shook his head and stabbed Lu Biao's chest with a sword.
Shangguan Shunan was still somewhat courageous, and glared at him, "Come on, Ye Kun, take my head and go find Shangguan Jifu to claim the reward!"
