Chapter 950: Powerless

The matter of opening an iron mine, Li Ergongzi is aware, he is one of the generals that Zhou Xinmiao invited to help, it is said that this person is very good at kung fu, and he is good at arranging troops, and his strategy is unparalleled, he is a very remarkable figure. Such a person is not something that can be invited for thousands of taels of silver, Zhou Xinmiao wants to impress him, he must show sincerity, and the matter of the iron mine will naturally not be hidden from him.

Qi Ershan didn't dare to tell Li Ergongzi about the account book, after all, the book was a private account made by himself, and he really couldn't see the light, once it was known by others, he was afraid that his life would be lost. It's just that at the moment, he doesn't know who the tent has fallen into, if he can't find it back, I'm afraid that troublesome things are still to come!

If he wants to ask Li Er Gongzi to help him, he has to find another reason, first of all, this thing must be very important, in fact, it must be something that can see the light.

Therefore, Qi Ershan put the idea on the roster.

The roster is also a crucial thing, and it contains the names of those who mine the iron ore, including those who know about the veins, and the names of the guards. There are two copies of this roster, one in the hands of Zhou Xinmiao, and the other in the hands of the little commander. There are three of the 10 households in charge of the mining workers, and they are rotated, changing posts every six months, and then handing over the roster. During this period, no matter who has an accident on the register, such as death or escape, it must be marked on the register for statistical purposes.

Qi Ershan used the roster as an excuse, but it was a clever move.

"The roster is very important. Childe knows it too. I will be on duty for half a month, and there will be nine more days, which is the time to hand over the roster. If I can't hand it over, it's a big deal. Qi Ershan looked bitter, and only said: "Ask the son to help me, you must help me get back the roster, after the matter is completed, there will be heavy thanks." "He put his attitude very right, his posture very low. Ordinary people are afraid that they will have a good impression when they see it.

The smile on Li Ergongzi's face was gone.

"Roster. Extremely important. Alas, how could Lord Shihu be so careless! ”

Qi Ershan's face was bitter, but he scolded in his heart, he felt that Li Ergongzi was gloating. Or maybe he wants to sit on the ground and raise the price.

"Childe, it's because it's important that I'm so anxious, if that thing isn't important, why bother Childe?" I don't know how, the more Qi Ershan speaks, the smoother he becomes, and his words become fluent.

"Please also ask Childe to help me."

Li Er sighed, took a sip of tea, and put his hand in the air. Only then did he put it down, and said, "Can the ten adults look for it carefully?" It was so important, if it was picked up by a sentry. Will definitely give it back to you. ”

"Why didn't I find it?" Qi Ershan made a bitter face, and only said: "I have searched back and forth a few times, and I have sent my henchmen to look around, but I haven't even seen the shadow of the roster." Don't tell you, sir, those guards are already violating the rules when they drink while they are on duty. As a result, the thieves ran in and stole things. It's even more of a crime, according to our rules here, we should be dragged to the valley to feed the wolves on the spot, but, as you know, now is the time to employ people, the law does not blame the public, and I don't want to punish more. ”

Li Ergongzi laughed, secretly thinking that this Qi Ershan followed Zhou Xinmiao's ass like a pug, and he didn't learn anything else, but the more Dayong spoke, the better he became.

"I've asked one by one, and no one has seen the roster, and no one has seen anyone sneak in. Childe thinks about it, the guards are all Dayong, they can't read the word vana, and it's useless to take it! So I think it must be a thief! Qi Ershan has already thought about it, he would rather bear the charge of lax management of the army, and he must not let the account book be exposed, the lesser of the two powers, if he can't find it, he will admit it. Fortunately, he kept an eye at the beginning, and when he let the account, he held the pen with his left hand, and the handwriting was crooked, as if it was from the hands of a beginner who was learning to write.

It's just a pity......

Qi Ershan's mind kept changing thoughts, but his face didn't show anything at all, no matter what, he still looked for the account book first, but he couldn't find it, and then he made another plan.

"Childe, I know that Childe is a capable person, and even the princess has praised Childe more than once, so I asked Childe to help me this time, catch the thief, and find the roster. Childe saved me once, great kindness, I will never forget. ”

Li Ergongzi sighed softly, and only said: "The ten households are smart and clever, what you can't find, I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it." ”

Is this a rejection?

Qi Ershan scolded secretly, but he didn't give up, and hurriedly pleaded: "Childe, I just ask Childe to follow me to the vicinity of the military tent to have a look, as for whether I can find it...... Just leave it to fate, as long as Childe is willing to help me, in the future, I will follow Childe. The expression on Qi Ershan's face was eager and eager, and he looked as if he regarded Li Ergongzi as a god who saved his life, as if no one in the world could save him except him.

Li Ergongzi was silent, as if considering the feasibility of this matter.

Qi Ershan was waiting on the side, with an anxious look on his face. He secretly pondered the meaning of Li Ergongzi in his heart, and thought again, it was best for Li Ergongzi to follow him, it was best to find the account book, and it didn't matter if he couldn't find it, anyway, he had already made up his mind and made two preparations, as long as Li Ergongzi was willing to go, he would have a way to live.

Qi Ershan's eyes quickly slid through a vicious calculation.

He thought he was hiding it well, and he didn't want to be caught by Li Ergongzi, who was sitting opposite him.

"Okay!" Li Ergongzi said quietly: "Since the ten households believe in me, then let's go, but let's talk about the ugly things in front, whether we succeed or not, do our best, and listen to the destiny of heaven." ”

Qi Ershan was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Li Ergongzi, "Thank you first, Gongzi, whether the matter is successful or not, I have kept Gongzi's great kindness in mind." He said again: "I don't know Childe, when will it be convenient?" ”

Li Ergongzi said: "Time waits for no one, so I'll go with the ten adults." ”

Qi Ershan hurriedly got up and made a "please" gesture at Li Ergongzi.

Li Ergongzi also got up, "I'm not busy, the ten adults have to let me change my clothes and take care of one or two, right?" ”

Qi Ershan hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside the tent." So saying, he took the lead out of the tent.

Li Ergongzi called Yadingmu over and whispered a few words, and then asked him to hand over his cotton robe and Dayu and put them on one by one.

Li Ergongzi came out of the tent and talked to Qi Ershan.

Yadingmu led Li Ergongzi's mount.

It was a maroon horse, fat and healthy, with four horses as big as the mouth of a bowl, and there was not a single miscellaneous hair on its body, only a white hair with a lightning pattern on its forehead.

This horse is called Lightning, and it is the Wuzan horse that Zhou Xinmiao found for Li Ergongzi with great effort.

The environment in Uzan is harsh, it is a bitter cold place, and the environment is even worse than that of Vana. Uzan produces good horses, and the pure-blooded Uzan horses are even better than the horses of Vana.

Qi Ershan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise: "Good horse." ”

Li Ergongzi touched Lightning's head, smiled and did not speak.

Qi Ershan said: "Childe, let's go now?" ”

Li Ergongzi nodded, turned over and got on the horse!

Qi Ershan also got on the horse in a vigorous posture, and the two greeted each other and whipped away.

Two retinues who followed Qi Ershan followed, and the four men and four horses went all the way.

Yadim stood in front of the tent and watched, until the four horses were gone, and then he turned and entered the tent.

After a while, Yadingmu came out of the tent again, and led a horse with him, and whipped away in the other direction.

Li Ergongzi followed Qi Ershan to the military tent located on the edge of the Iron Mine Mountain Range.

The eye-catching guard saw Qi Ershan's horse, and hurriedly trotted over to meet him.

Qi Ershan and Li Ergongzi both dismounted, and Qi Ershan signaled his entourage to personally lead the horse over and take good care of it.

"Childe, please."

Qi Ershan's attitude towards Li Ergongzi surprised the guards on the side.

It is no secret that Qi Ershan has always looked down on the Dayong people. Now that he is courteous to a Dayong person, this, this shouldn't be his own dazzle, right?

The guard rubbed his eyes, looking at Qi Ershan like an idiot.

The two of them entered the military tent talking and laughing, and Qi Ershan's face seemed to have a flower.

It's really strange that there are many things every year, especially this year!

The guards were so shocked that their eyes were about to fall out, and they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Qi Ershan let Li Ergongzi to the upper position, and said: "Childe, the conditions here are not good, you will have some." The words became more and more humble.

This is not Qi Ershan's character at all.

Li Ergongzi didn't care, and only said: "When you go out, you don't have to pay too much attention to it, besides, the soldiers are harder than us, where am I qualified to complain!" ”

Qi Ershan said yes again and again, and casually called his entourage to serve tea to Li Ergongzi.

"Childe, let's just have some!"

Li Ergongzi only said: "The ten households don't need to be busy, I can't get used to drinking these, so it's better to let someone change some white water." "The people of Wana don't drink tea, their tea is butter tea, or mare's milk tea. He couldn't get used to drinking it, his tea was bought from the caravan at a high price, and the money was given by Zhou Xinmiao.

Qi Ershan said yes again and again, and he was busy and let people change the boiling water.

Li Ergongzi smiled slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Qi Ershan is not a simple person, he begged himself to find the roster, but he was afraid that he also had bad intentions. If something is found, he will naturally kill people, on the contrary, if the thing cannot be found, how will he treat himself?

To Qi Ershan and others, he is equivalent to an outsider, an outsider who can be used to frame blame. If he can't help Qi Ershan find something, then he will most likely be put on a fine hat, and Qi Ershan can say that after he entered the military tent, he took the roster with bad intentions. At that time, I was afraid that even if Zhou Xinmiao wanted to protect herself, she couldn't do anything. (To be continued)
