This early winter was snowy and unusually cold. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In addition to the coastal zone, as well as the southern part of Wuwei Kingdom and the Nanban Abroad, a snowstorm that has not been encountered in ten years swept half of the Jiangnan, turning the originally lush Jiangnan into a white world.

The cold does not have much impact on cultivators, but for ordinary people, especially those slaves who are underfed, the sudden weather in the south of the Yangtze River is a disaster for them, and a large number of slaves die of hunger and cold.

Lian Wu's sudden move not only caught those slave owners in a panic, but even the king of Chu Wei, who was preparing to come to spring to quell the rebellion, was caught off guard.

The purpose of the rebel army is to rescue the slaves, seize clothing and food, not to seize the territory, so most of them are raids, so that those slave owners and officers and soldiers are unable to guard against it, because most of the slaves have gone to the southeast mountains to defect to the rebels over the years, the slave owner's family has a pitiful number of slaves, but they do not treat the slaves as human beings, and the cold snap of the weather change raid has killed a lot, especially the slave owners who are not vigilant are not kind to the slaves, so that the slaves set off another round of escape tide, and in this Lianwu rescue brother plan to stir up, the slave owners collapsed, and if this continues, there will be no slaves left with the masters。

In the court of Shangjing, the slave owners wailed, and King Chu Wei's face turned pale.

These slave owners have paid him protection money, and now that the slave has run away and the money and food have been robbed, of course you have to cry to him; you will be done with the protection money, and we will be protected by you when we pay the protection money, and our family has been robbed, so you have to take care of it.

King Chu Wei was happy to get the jade seal, thinking that he had luck, and was ready to take the opportunity to quell the rebellion and peep into the world, but he didn't want these rebels and thieves to give him a blow to the head, so angry that his seven souls were out of his body and eight souls flew into the sky, and these slave owners cried and cried to the court, giving him the urge to flip the table.

However, he really can't offend these nobles too much now, because he still has to rely on them to quell the rebellion and revitalize the country, and if he wants to appease them, he has to do something at the moment, otherwise it will be difficult to calm their commotion.

"Well, it's winter now, and it's not easy for the army to move, so let's do it, and each family will recruit three thousand private soldiers on its own, and the food and salary will be provided by the arsenal and the arsenal will provide it. ”

King Chu Wei waved his long sleeves and turned back to the harem.

And the slave owners who were originally crying and crying after thanking them, wiped away their tears and left happily.

This is the second time that King Chu Wei has increased the number of noble private soldiers, plus the original allowed 3,000 private soldiers, each family can support 9,000 private soldiers, and the ordnance is provided by the arsenal.

Nine thousand private soldiers is not a small number, it is an unimaginable number in other vassal states, generally the nobles of small vassal states raise 1,000 private soldiers, that is also a great favor to him, larger vassal states, nobles must not raise more than 3,000 private soldiers, more than complicity, will be raided and exterminated.

Who gave King Chu Wei this idea?

Naturally, it's Yao Linci.

His explanation to King Chu Wei was to let these nobles train soldiers and horses for the king, and when the rebellion was put down in the coming spring, an edict would turn those soldiers into officers and soldiers.

Although this trick is good, those slave owners are not stupid, and naturally have a way to deal with it, but whether the little arm can be twisted over the thigh in the end will have to wait until the next spring to see the result.

This winter, the internal turmoil of the Chu State, and the border fortress is not calm, the southern coast is frequently plundered by pirates and those island countries, and the border of the southern barbarian country is not calm, but the biggest worry is that the secret of the secret land of the Luoyan Gorge fortress is somehow leaked, and the royal ancestor Song Chu, who is in charge of the secret excavation and security, even sent a letter to scold the king of Chu Wei, ordering him to strictly investigate and punish the leaker, and ask for additional reinforcements.

"Who do you think leaked the secret?"

King Chu Wei asked Yao Linci.

"What does the king think?"

Yao Linci asked rhetorically.

"You mean ....."

"My lord, the minion didn't say anything. ”

The conversation between the two could not be heard by others, but the two of them understood in their hearts, because the information sent back from the Luoyan Gorge Fortress was handed over to King Chu Wei through Yao Linci's hand, and King Chu Wei knew that Yao Linci had read all the contents of these information.

King Chu Wei didn't blame Yao Linci, Yao Linci didn't say it directly, he didn't blame it, that person's name was very sensitive in the palace, and that person's eyeliner was everywhere in the palace, although King Chu Wei was not afraid, but in this extraordinary period, he was not willing to provoke, and Yao Linci didn't dare to say that it was normal.

"What will happen to this?"

"Doesn't the king have a belly case!"

The two of them had already planned this matter, but King Chu Wei couldn't make up his mind, so he asked.

"Well, so be it. ”

"Yes. ”

Yao Linci's face was happy, and he retreated, and King Chu Wei looked at Yao Linci's back and his face changed.

"Does it have to be that way?"

After Yao Linci left, an old man suddenly appeared beside King Chu Wei, and with a wave of his hand, he set up a soundproof barrier, which was a means of a half-step legendary powerhouse.

"What if not! Lone has tolerated her for a long time, she actually dismantled Lone's platform in this way, this behavior is beyond Lone's tolerance bottom line, and that treasure is Lone's revitalization of the country's prestige, and there is no room for loss, and the banker's ambition has been clear, Lone can no longer bear it. King Chu Wei said bitterly.

The Chu State is indeed very thick, but it has also cost a lot over the years, nearly half of the land has been occupied by the rebels, the tax revenue has been sharply reduced, and the more out and less into the country, if it goes on like this, sooner or later, it will be difficult to turn over, and that treasure has been excavated for so many years, and it has cost a lot but not much progress, if it is lost again, then ..........

"There is no conclusive evidence, and the old man still doesn't want you to touch her. ”

This old man is also one of the ancestors of the royal family, and he does not approve of breaking with the Zhuang clan at this time.

"Is there conclusive evidence, hehe... Second grandfather, what if you are alone, Zhuang's can be pushed to her alone. ”

That's why I said don't touch her. ”

"No, I'm just using this matter to suppress the Zhuang family, Lone will master a degree, so that they are not enough to turn against Lonely, hum... When the time comes..............."

King Chu Wei has killed the Zhuang family.

"I'm just making a suggestion about this, and in the end how do you decide I don't ask, you let me take people to the fortress, but this place is empty, I'm afraid..."

"Second grandfather, only Lone knows your ....."

"Then it's better to take more precautions, and that Yao Linci...."

The second ancestor Song Yan was still a little uneasy, and he instructed and instructed, so he led people to secretly rush to the secret place of the fortress.

Qian Fu couldn't get rid of the fifth, and finally had no choice but to abandon Lin Qiaoer, originally in the end he had the intention of killing Lin Qiaoer, but he didn't dare to start, he mistakenly thought that the fifth was the person who Wuhou arranged to secretly protect Lin Qiaoer, and in one was the fifth, revealing his identity, he had to choose to give up when he couldn't be sure of killing the fifth.

Is Lin Qiaoer really someone that Wuhou cares about very much?

Definitely.

Qian Fu caught the wrong person, and Ling Tao didn't see which one Qian Fu had captured, and Lin Qiaoer didn't have a special identity, she was just an ordinary disciple, but she was more handsome than other women, and Qian Fu's preconceived thinking made him think that the woman Wu Hou cared about must be very handsome (he didn't dare to describe it), because he thought that this woman should be Wu Hou's heir, or private... gave birth to a daughter, so I think that Wuhou was a famous beautiful man when he was young.

Qian Fu returned to the forbidden area in frustration, he was embarrassed to show up, and went back to Midi directly, and Ling Tao couldn't help frowning when he got the news that he came back alone.

"Waste, idiot. ”

Ling Tao was angry that Qian Fu had ruined his plan, and originally he wanted to find a way to snatch the woman back after Qian Fu brought the woman back, and this woman was very important to his plan.

"Go find out who snatched the woman, and when you find it, you will take it back for me at any cost. ”

"Wow. ”

"That Pavilion Lord just let them go?"

Blood Moon asked a little unwillingly.

"En...," Ling Tao pondered for a while and said to Blood Moon, "Let Han Yu lead someone to pretend to be someone from the Yin Capital Ghost Sect to hunt down and kill." ”

"Them?" "Blood Moon really looked down on Han Yu and those people: "Your Majesty doesn't understand the Lord's intentions. ”

"It's nothing, Han Yu's people can't play much role here, let them go to experience is one of them, in one intention is to disrupt the Jianghu sect, you send capable people to secretly cooperate, take the opportunity to search for those people in the rivers and lakes who can be used by me, how to operate you can watch it." ”

"I see. ”

Zhang Xian was ready, and was about to sneak into the forbidden area with Xingmang, but was blocked by unexpected people............
