Chapter 15: Heartlessness (1)
Brothers, Yun Ming took her daughter to play yesterday, and today's update is back to normal! )
Yuan Dadu, Prime Minister's Mansion.
At this time, the sky is only slightly bright.
The Prime Minister of Tokhtar, who was in the council hall, sat behind the table with an angry face, looking at a general in his fifties who was kneeling at the foot of the stairs and dressed as a general of the forbidden army, and he did not speak for a long time.
The general, who was kneeling at the foot of the steps, saw that the prime minister had not spoken a word after listening to him, and he couldn't help but kowtow again, and then said in a mournful voice: "Prime minister! The dog was lucky enough to escape with a stand-in this time, and now he is kneeling outside the hall and asking you to leave! For the sake of the last general who will follow you for many years, spare his life! ”
"Tomerdor! It took more than ten days for the news to come to me! Do you know how important Quanzhou is to this appearance? Unexpectedly, Long Live didn't miss the old feelings at all, and actually sent Xianglan'er to take charge of Quanzhou without telling me! In this way, all my hard work for many years was in vain! In the future, all the taxes in Quanzhou will fall into the hands of Banzai and become his squandering, and the food and salary that can be used in the army will be greatly reduced, so that if you want to pacify the traitors in various places as soon as possible, it will be difficult to ascend to the sky! Totoku said with a grim face.
"Prime Minister, I have sent a secret letter informing those two armies in the two provinces of Fuzhou and Zhejiang to prepare their troops and horses, and they are ready to disguise themselves as rebels and invade Quanzhou at any time, and they will definitely kill that Xianglan'er in the city! It's just that I also ask the prime minister to spare the dog Za Kecha, he has made many military exploits for my Dayuan in Northern Xinjiang! I hope you will spare him when you think of this. ”
"Bastard! Zake sent me a big deal, and I lost Quanzhou Mansion, an important town for raising food and salaries for the army! How can I spare him? Now the Red Turban traitors in Anhui and Hubei provinces are fighting each other, if the two unfamiliar people take advantage of the chaos to support the army and stand on their own, the Red Turban traitors will respond at the same time and become a force, and if they echo each other from afar, my Great Yuan will be torn apart. If it weren't for your son's method of robbing the people with all his might, which caused the people of Quanzhou to be angry, how could there be such a crisis! The sin of your son is really destroying the century-old foundation of my great yuan! When Totoh said this, Tie Qing slapped the case.
Tomador raised his head and said with some despair: "It turns out that the sins committed by my rebellious son have actually made the prime minister's plan to quell the rebellion come to naught!" And then he went out and beheaded him in the court. As he spoke, he immediately stood up, his hand touching the hilt of the knife at his waist and about to go out.
"Slow! I have one more thing to say, long live you in the near future! At this point, he is not yet ready to move me, but he will never let you go. So Tomerdorcha, after you left my house at this time, you quickly took your young son in the house to the side of the county of Tai, where I have been working hard for many years to run a county, now long live in the court although it has been powerful, but the general trend of the world does not know how to examine, in recent years the trust in me has become more and more reduced, you to Taijun immediately changed your surname, the local military horses to control, even if the last long live wants to attack me, but also for many generals to leave a way back! Tokhtar said this, his eyes looked at Tomador with a complicated look.
"Taijun? The Far South Wilderness? Prime Minister, is it true that Banzai doesn't miss the old love and wants to kill you all? Back then, you had a lot of support for him, and you pacified many civil strife in my Dayuan several times, and now when you are unwell, you still do your best every day to pacify the Red Turban traitors in the south, and prepare food and salary! It can be said that for the sake of Dayuan's world, you can be described as a hard worker! Why did he do this to you? Tomerdor almost stopped, and turned back to say with a sad look on his face.
"The merit is high! That's where I'm now. But even so, I will do my best to pacify the Red Turban traitors, and then I will find an opportunity to establish a new king!" Long live every day like to be curious about lewd skills, hobby of making utensils, completely lost the brave and decisive style of my ancestor emperor, but recruited craftsmen from all over the world, and favored the eunuchs! The statue of the Buddha was erected in the palace, but Quanzhou was handed over to Xianglan'er, the foreign county lord! It's clear that it's out of bounds! Think of my Dayuan back then, Taizu and Shizu only with 20,000 iron horses can fight tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, the world is shocked, although it is currently known as a million iron horses, but it is divided into countless families and tribes like scattered sand, sad! All of this is due to the inaction of Banzai! When Tokhtar said this aloud, the beard under his cheeks was windless, but his body was already trembling with anger at this time.
Hearing Tokhtar say that he would set up a new king in the future, Tomador couldn't help but fight a cold war, but he didn't dare to take this topic in vain, at this time he didn't go, he didn't go, he couldn't respond to Tokhtar's words at all, you must know that another new king has a heart of disobedience, in order to save his life, he can run thousands of miles, but he didn't think about the idea of setting up a new king, and Tokhtar is the prime minister of the dynasty who has this ability.
When Totoh said this, although his body trembled, he also felt that his subordinates could not respond because of his anger, so he just raised his head and said: "After pacifying the Red Turban traitors, if I set up a new monarch and fail, I will definitely go to Taijun to find you, and at that time, my Dayuan will definitely be on the verge of collapse!" I don't want to go back to the north and let my children and grandchildren live in the grass again! Tomerdor, go now! If I'm not mistaken, Banzai should have received a message from the Southern Courier at this time. If you don't go, you don't have to go! After that, he turned around and never looked at this person again.
When Tomador heard this, a chill immediately appeared on his back, and he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Tokhtar again, and then said in a trembling voice: "The prime minister will have the virtue of regeneration at the end, and the end will always feel five inside, so don't pass it over!" As he spoke, he stood up and strode out of the hall.
Toto's face changed slightly, but he didn't say anything more, but after all, he still turned his head a little reluctantly, and silently watched the most powerful forbidden army, Zuoduwei Tomador, walk out.
The ragged and pale-faced Zakocha was kneeling outside the hall with the blood marks on his face that had been slapped by his father before he came.
At this time, he saw his father appear in front of him without any expression on his face, and he couldn't help but ask with a glimmer of hope: "Father, how did the prime minister send out the child?" ”
"My son, you are really dead in Quanzhou Mansion! And you ruined the Prime Minister's plan to pacify the traitors for several years, and you are a sinner in my great yuandi, and I am really ...... I can't spare you! ”
After speaking, a trace of sadness and disappointment flashed in Tomerdor's eyes, and with a sound on his waist, a cold knife flashed quickly, followed by the sound of a knife entering the sheath.
When his head spun and flew into the air, he saw his body still kneeling on the ground and blood spurting outward like an arrow, and his eyes flashed with an incredible light, and his mouth was still open and closed up and down because of the loss of his vocal cords, but he could not make the slightest sound, and until this moment he did not believe that his father would kill him like this......
"Prime Minister! I have executed this rebel in accordance with your orders, please take care! Tomadorcha flew forward to catch his son's head and muttered, Zakocha's eyes losing their lustre.
The commander of the forbidden army carried his son's head, and walked quickly to the prime minister's mansion with a blank face, and before dawn, he still had time to take his young son Chachai Zhuowang to escape from the capital, and fled to the south, thousands of miles away, Tai County, to manage the last place of the prime minister's escape.
After Shang Yu saw the announcement, he did not say in public that it was not the idea of Zeng Ziyi's article, but quietly withdrew, firstly, because he was just a scholar, and secondly, after this matter needed to be reported to Shen Fuyu, Shen Yan would deal with the matter, and this matter must be related to official officials, although Shang Yu was young, he also thought very clearly.
Moreover, he still had things to do entrusted by Shen Fu, and after withdrawing from the crowd of onlookers, Shang Yu went to the direction of the Blessed Land Inn again.
However, he didn't see several obscene-looking civilians following behind him......
"Huh! What is this wooden fish going to do? Who were the men who followed him? Di Lu Wan, dressed in a man's clothes, came out of the crowd, looked at Shang Yu with some curiosity and muttered to several people behind him.
At that time, there were many pedestrians on the streets, and Shang Yu grew up in a mountain village, and his steps were fast, and he soon disappeared at the corner of a lane, and those who followed him immediately lost their purpose.
"Zeng Gongzi went to the city to take up his post today, and we promised him that if he found that scholar, he would be treated well! I didn't expect this kid to be so fast! One of the thugs said with some disappointment.
"Yes! Running really fast, yesterday in the third lane of the lane, Zeng Gongzi said that as long as Shen Wansan's scholar's leg can be discounted, he can reward us with 1,000 taels of silver, and if he is killed, there will be a reward of 2,000 taels of silver, how can such a good thing not be done! ”
"By the way, I have seen that scholar, he originally lived in a warehouse in the Lu family's firm, this kid also has a mother, but he suddenly became the scholar of Shen Wansan, presumably he went back to see his mother, let's go there and wait, find a place where no one can clean him up!"
"Bullshit! In case it is the meaning of being rich in the world, the family surnamed Shen Di is only the rich land owner of Zhouzhuang, and even the fur of Zeng Gongzi's family is not enough! That's just Zeng Gongzi laughing at him! Who doesn't know about the three lanes in the lane? It's just that the one surnamed Shen thinks he is a rich man! ”
Lu Wan didn't follow closely, so he couldn't hear what those people were talking about, but just followed curiously.
Two quarters of an hour later, Shang Yu appeared in front of Lu's warehouse with Zhang Shicheng and the man surnamed Lu, and after he went in to report to Lu Shaobei, Lu Shaobei immediately went out to welcome the two inside.
It's just that the result is just as Shang Yu thought yesterday, the Lu family doesn't have much inventory at this time, and even the salt goods of other businesses can't reach half of Zhang Shicheng's needs.
When Shang Yu was waiting outside for Zhang Shicheng and the two to be sent out by Lu Shaobei, Lu Shaobei was saluting again and again: "Brother Zhang! I'm really sorry, this firm can only provide dozens of quintals, the other eight firms I will contact as soon as possible, I can always collect three hundred quintals, I hope to solve your current difficulties first! ”
A hint of gloom flashed in Zhang Shicheng's eyes, and he said: "I didn't expect that the provinces of Shanxi would need several times more salt than in previous years, and I need 3,000 quintals for bulk sales in the Taizhou area, so as to take revenge on those evil businessmen who hoarded and owed silver and did not pay it back, but I didn't expect it to happen!" Providence! Brother Lu, 300 quintals is 300 quintals! I'll pick it up tomorrow! Say goodbye! After that, he said goodbye to Lu Shaobei.
Lu Shaobei had no choice but to give up his hand and say: "Tomorrow, Lu will prepare three hundred loads of salt and wait for the big ride!" "Zhang Shicheng's name, Lu Shaobei is still very clear, if it was half a month ago, Lu Shaobei would not hesitate to hand over the salt goods to Zhang Shicheng, but at this time, because there is no goods in the warehouse, even Shen Fu himself will not be able to conjure up the salt goods out of thin air.
Zhang Shicheng and the man surnamed Lu both arched their hands again, did not speak again, turned around and walked out of the street a little lonely.
Seeing the two leaving, Lu Shaobei, who was standing at the door of the warehouse, turned his face to Shang Yu and smiled and said, "Xiao Yu, come in and talk!" You will rejoice when you hear good news! ”
"Sir, what's the good news?" Shang Yu couldn't help asking, but in the next moment, a smile appeared on his face, and he had vaguely guessed.
Sure enough, I only heard Lu Shaobei say: "Xiao Yu, your father is also my brother, their caravan finally has news!" Now that the caravan has returned to the area of Changbei in the Western Regions from the Great Eclipse, the contact person of the caravan in Changbei of the Western Regions has confirmed the matter through the transmission of the flying pigeon, and it will arrive in the area of Jining Road under the jurisdiction of King Zhao in another month, where the caravan can be called truly safe! What do you think of this news? ”
"Is this true, sir?" Shang Yu immediately grabbed Lu Shaobei's shoulder and asked, his eyes full of joy.
"Of course it's true, your mother is reading the letter. It just so happens that you are also entrusted by the young master to come here, so it doesn't hurt to go back later! Lu Shaobei looked at Shang Yu again and said kindly.
Unexpectedly, after Shang Yu heard this, he was so happy that he didn't even say a word, and ran straight to the warehouse, and then ran back to find his mother Shang Mei to read the letter!
"This child, like his father when he was young, is easily excited!" After that, Lu Shaobei looked at Shang Yudi's back, shook his head, and said with a smile.
"Uncle Lu! Why are you so happy? A crisp woman's voice sounded on Lu Shaobei's side.
Lu Shaobei looked back, quickly turned around and arched his hand and said, "It turned out to be the second miss!" Although there was some deference in his words, when he saw Lu Wan wearing men's clothes, a layer of frost immediately hung on his face.
"Second Miss! Why don't you go to a private school, but you wear men's clothes to go out and play, what kind of system is this? Although I am your bookkeeper, I can also be regarded as a friend of the old man, how can you be so foolish? Hurry up and follow me into the inn, if you let people know that the second lady of the Lu family is wandering around in men's clothes. The Lu family in Quanzhou will become the laughing stock of the world's mouth, it is really unseemly" As he spoke, he motioned to Lu Wan to enter the warehouse immediately.
Lu Wan originally wanted to mention to Lu Shaobei that someone was secretly following Shang Yu, but he didn't expect Lu Shaobei to be furious when he saw her, but Lu Wan was most afraid of this Mr. Lu, because since he was a child, Lu Wan knew that Lu Shaobei was not only Mr. Accounts, but also in addition to the title, he was even more authoritative than Lu Wan's second uncle, and the head of the Lu family, that is, Lu Wandi's father, also obeyed Lu Shaobei's words, and also grounded Lu Wan in the boudoir for ten years because of Lu Shaobei's words.
Seeing Lu Shaobei angry, Lu Wan completely forgot what he wanted to say, lowered his head and followed Lu Shaobei into the warehouse with some fear.
At the corner of the side door of the warehouse, a person quietly left, walked into the alley not far away, and whispered to several people yawning here: "That scholar has entered the warehouse, and will naturally come out later, who do you say will go in later?" ”
"Who is it?"
"That's actually the woman who made a fuss in the three alleys last time when a woman dressed as a man, and I heard it clearly this time! She is actually the second lady of the Lu family! ”
"Second Miss of the Lu family? The second lady of the Lu family who is said to be deviant? ”
"It's her, who is actually hanging outside in men's clothes, we usually always hang out in the alleys, sleep during the day, and do things at night! This time it's good, if we tie Shen Wansan's cousin to the third lane of the lane, let the eldest son ......"
"Hey, hey, hey! Liu Huaishui, you kid is really a bad belly! Have you ever thought about the consequences, and we can't break into the warehouse to rob people, right? ”
"Stupid! Won't you look for a chance? Our main target is still that scholar, and this second Miss Lu is just carrying it with you! Who let her once tease our brothers in the three alleys! It's just how to do it without being guarded against by them, this needs to be carefully discussed! ”
Several molested men began to viciously discuss how to proceed in the alley at this time......
At this time, Shang Yu ran to the back of the warehouse early and read the letters sent back by his father's caravan with Shang Mei. And Lu Wan was taken to the room by Lu Shaobei for a lesson, which made her face red, and she couldn't help biting her lip and hating in her heart: "Dead Wood Fish, if I hadn't followed you, I would have gone to Yunzhen Temple to play!" At this time, he was reprimanded by Mr. Lu here! She hated Shang Yu for no reason, but she completely forgot that the few people who had followed Shang Yu were still outside the warehouse.
