Chapter 225: The Change of Yu Zhang
Wang Yuanhua almost dropped the letter in his hand to the ground, and stammered at Wen Qian, "Brother Wen, this, can this be done?" Is this too risky? In case"
"No in case! Those buns would never have imagined it, and the people we had planted in their army spread the news that their brigade had actually gone to the southwest, and there were thousands of people left outside the city to go back and forth every day, and we were all deceived! There are more than 100 Southern Navy in the city, and we have tens of thousands of people, can't we beat them? What's more, we are still in the shadows, and we can still incite those untouchables! Wen Wan said as he calculated for Wang Yuanhua.
Wang Yuanhua looked around vigilantly, "Brother Wen, you said that we have no losses now, why bother?" Is my daughter still in their hands? ”
"Brother Wang, if you don't like a lot of money, then you can give me all the family property! I heard that this Lord Li killed many wealthy businessmen in the north, lit a sky lantern and fell on a tree, and the corpses of five horses were divided, and the killing was a river of blood. If we don't seize the opportunity now, in the future, people like them will sit in the world, will we still have a way to live? Your daughter is in their house, can you go in and see her? ”
Wen Wan's eyes rolled, as if he had thought of something.
Wang Yuanhua took a breath, "I've heard what you said, yes, if you settle accounts in the future, I'm afraid we will all be killed!" My daughter is in their hands, but they told me to send someone to serve her, and it was not difficult to go in and see her! These people are the ones who talk the talk! ”
"That's it, that's it, it's all done! God help me wait! As he spoke, Wen Wan took out a medicine bottle from his arms and handed it to Wang Yuanhua
Wang Yuanhua took the medicine bottle and looked at it, "This is?" ”
"Pills! Brother Wang only needs to send someone to bring this medicine in, and find an opportunity to go down to that Lord Li's food or tea, hehe"
"No, no, no, this can't be done, little girl's name! No way! Wang Yuanhua hurriedly handed the medicine back
Wen Wan pressed the medicine bottle back with both hands, and Wang Yuanhua put it back in his hand: "No poison, no husband!" It's worth it for Miss Wang to make a sacrifice for this! If Miss Wang is insulted by them! How many mud legs should there be in this Yuzhang City to rush to avenge Miss Wang! Then they will all die without a place to bury! In the future, when you become a big official, are you still afraid that your daughter will not find a wishful husband? ”
Wang Yuanhua continued to push the medicine bottle back, and Wen Wan's eyes showed a fierce light: "Brother Wang, you and I are grasshoppers on a rope, and the letter to Cui Gong also has your name, and I have copied a copy of your allegiance letter!" I'm going to lose! Your whole family won't survive! ”
Wang Yuanhua softened suddenly, "Brother Wen, you can't do this!" Am I not even able to rely on you? Alas! What iniquity have I created! Stand up for these things! ”
Wen Qian patted Wang Yuanhua on the shoulder, "Brother Wang, the so-called wealth is in danger, if you don't fight, where does the wealth and glory come from?" ”
Wang Yuanhua closed his eyes, "Okay, Brother Wen, I'll leave the matter of this medicine to me!" ”
Wen Qian kicked the box on the ground, "Brother Wang, put it away!" I left through the back door, and I had to guard against people! ”
Hua Xiaoan took thirty people out of the city and ran for two days, and found that someone had indeed sent them an extra 30% of the tax.
The people were extremely resentful, and many people said that this so-called righteous army was not as good as the army sent by Cui Ju.
Hua Xiaoan found a few pavilion chiefs to threaten and lure him, and finally asked the truth, this tax increase was done by Sima Wen Tai'an of Yuzhang County, who surrendered, and he was Wen Wan's brother.
Fortunately, Hua Xiaoan and his party rescued Yuan Xin and other doctors who were besieged by the villagers.
The patients who have been treated by Yuan Xin and others have been sudden in the past few days
died violently, and then someone told the villagers that this was the Southern Navy that wanted to use evil methods to control the people.
Raising taxes and harming people were all counted on the head of the South China Navy.
If Hua Xiao'an arrived late for a stick of incense, Yuan Xin and them would have been beaten to death by the villagers.
Although Hua Xiaoan and his entourage were excellent in martial arts, they could not compete with thousands of people after all, so they had to flee back to the city with Yuan Xin and them.
Hua Xiaoan and Yuan Xin, who returned to the mansion, reported everything to Li Xiaofei.
Li Xiaofei summoned Chen Jingyi, Cai Guishan, Deng Liang, and Yu Tao to discuss countermeasures.
Chen Jingyi pinched his wrist, "It's really a human who doesn't hurt the tiger, and the tiger is harmful to people's hearts!" With such a poisonous plan, I am afraid that they are not only trying to incite the people to fight against us, but there may also be internal responses in this city! ”
"Master Li, if you keep being in trouble, in my opinion, you will arrest and kill all these big and rich businessmen tonight!" Deng Liang was a little annoyed
"It is imperative that we defend the city of Yuzhang and withdraw all the brothers outside the city into the city. Our suspicious tactics have been discovered, and it is not good to continue outside the city! ”
"To kill is to kill, but there must be evidence! If you act rashly, it will cause panic among the people of the whole city, and when the time comes, the city will be in chaos first, and we will lose our ground! ”
Li Xiaofei closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then opened his eyes again, "I'm afraid that what Cui Ju wants is a chaotic Yuzhang City, so as to delay time!" He wants to be chaotic, we want to be stable! At present, finding a way to stabilize the situation in the city is the key! ”
"Master Li, I heard that Miss Wang is already in the mansion! Isn't it intentional on the part of Master Li? Cai Guishan smiled a little evilly
"If you don't say I've forgotten, this person is also very suspicious! By the way, she committed suicide and hit the wall yesterday and broke her head, Yuan Xin, you go and treat her injuries, and take out to monitor her every move! Li Xiaofei pointed to the west wing and asked Yuan Xin to go
Yuan Xin cried with a sad face: "Master Li, this is my life!" I know in the countryside that this eldest lady is a famous chivalrous woman in Yuzhang City, the master who beats and cuts people at every turn! ”
"Don't be verbose, if you want to go, you will go! Alas, how can you get involved in this matter, everyone, if the city wants to control the situation, I am afraid that Cai Guishan will have to take the remaining hundred dead soldiers to keep an eye on the rich businessmen. General Chen's 200 cavalry went to ambush outside the North Gate! General Yu's 300 men went to guard the south gate, and Deng Liang took the 300 brothers of the spear battalion to the west gate to wait. Everyone should remember that if there is any situation on the side of the government, don't come here. Hua Xiaoan, you go to Wenfu tonight and tie Wen Taian and Wen Qian to me first! ”
"Master Li, there are only a few dozen people around you, can you do it?"
"I can't stay here for more people, as long as we guard the city gate and don't let them join the outside world, we will win! You know, I have a meat ticket in my hand! ”
Everyone took the order and left, and at the fourth watch, the Wen brothers were brought to Li Xiaofei.
Wen Tai'an and Wen Qian kowtowed again and again, "Master Li, we are loyal to you, if you want money, materials, and people, we will give them!" Please raise your hand! ”
Li Xiaofei sneered: "What a big thing the two of you do at home!" Let me ask you, what is your explanation for this unauthorized increase in taxes and planting against our army? What do you say about poisoning the villagers? ”
The Wen brothers were stunned for a moment, and then Wen Qian replied with a smile, "Lord Li is as kind to us as a mountain, and what we do is to repay Lord Li!" All the money from the tax plus the treasury money must be handed over to the adults as military funds! As for the violent death of several villagers, this is really an accident! The local villagers are rude and frame the medical officer, we will deal with it!
”
"Hehe, the walls of this Yuzhang City are not as thick as your skin! Li can't repay you for this reward, come to someone, go to the oil pot! Li Xiaofei waved his hand, and the soldiers took the two to the courtyard.
The two oil pots in the yard had just been set up, and the firewood had just been lit and was still smoking.
"Master Li, you can't do this to us! We are good people who keep to ourselves! If you want to be so careless about human life, the fathers and villagers of Yuzhang City will give us justice! ”
"Master Li, spare our lives, that is, save yourself! My Wen family also has thirty percent of the industry in this Yuzhang City, you open the door now and look outside your mansion, the people will definitely come to save us! ”
As soon as the words fell, two soldiers ran back from the door and whispered a few words in Li Xiaofei's ear.
Li Xiaofei clapped his hands: "Good means!" Good means! It seems that we are still underestimating you, and inciting the people to come against me! Let me guess! Tax increase and exploitation! Poison the people! Well, I'm afraid there is still a charge of robbing people's girls! ”
Wen Tai'an smiled: "You know it's too late! If you know each other, let us go, and we guarantee that you will walk out of Yuzhang City safely. This is a decent place for you! ”
"I don't love face! I'm going to try an unseemly way of living! Come on, throw the two of them into it for me and fry them slowly, and fry them slowly in cold oil! When their men attacked, the two of them became fritters! ”
The soldiers carried the Wen brothers and threw them into the oil pot, and Wen Wan shouted, "Why are you a madman!" You can get out if you keep us hostage! Don't let us get out of the pan! ”
Li Xiaofei waved his hand, and the soldiers put the Wen brothers down, "What you said is very right!" Yes, leave you hostages, come on, first cut off three fingers of each of them, and throw them out to tell the people outside! If you don't leave at dawn, we'll send the two of you out one by one! ”
"Master Li, don't be kidding! With our brothers interceding, they will not embarrass you! ”
"Do it! Who has the kung fu to laugh at you! ”
After a shrill scream, the soldiers led the two to the gate of the palace and threw out the fingers wrapped in cloth.
The people outside refused to retreat, and one of them shouted inside, "This Southern Navy is really cruel!" Master Wen, they are heroes who would rather die than give in! Everyone follow me, smash open the gate and rush in to destroy them! ”
"Fan Huaizhong, you forget the eight ends, it's too boring!"
"Don't listen to him, I'm Wen Qian! Master Lee promised not to kill us! Don't mess around! Don't listen to Fan Huaizhong! ”
When Li Xiaofei heard this name, he was a little familiar, and then he thought about it, the remnants of the Zhongyi Hall who fled from Linjiang Country back then had this person's name included.
"I said that the two of them had a good life with a rich man, but they learned to rebel! It turned out that there were people from the Zhongyi Hall mixed in it! Listen to the people outside! Wen Tai Anwen thousands of brothers listened to the instigation of traitors, increased taxes on you, poisoned many people, and fabricated rumors to incite you. But I, Li, don't pursue you, not only do I not pursue you, but I also don't pursue Wentai Anwen's tens of millions of brothers! After Li Xiaofei finished speaking, he kicked the Wen brothers twice
"Master Li is a good talker, don't mess around!"
"Don't mess around! You just wait outside, waiting for Master Li to let us out!" ”
The Fan Huaizhong outside was still shouting, "Lord Wen, they are threatened, if they don't fight today, they will be beheaded tomorrow!" We are already rebelling against them! There is no way back for everyone! Lord Cui's counterinsurgency soldiers and horses are coming soon! ”
