Chapter 3 Troubled Times Descend Section 54 is at stake

Compared with my nervousness, I drank fragrant tea with a leisurely expression. "Zizheng, have you summoned famous doctors from all over the world? What kind of disease Gong Yuanjun has, has it been found out. I asked anxiously.

Fu Zhu still said slowly: "In my opinion, Gong Yuanjun may have fallen into the toil of guarding the city day and night when the Yellow Turban attacked Linzi. Recently, the Yellow Turbans of Jinan County rebelled again, and Jinan is not far from Linzi, if they intend to attack Linzi, it will be imminent. Not long after Gong Yuanjun became the new state minister, he intended to make a difference, and when he heard the news, he was worried, so he fell ill. Therefore, although Gong Yuanjun is seriously ill, it is just a heart disease, and the heart disease is difficult to treat and easy to treat, so the lord does not need to worry. ”

I woke up suddenly, frustrated, what was the matter? Since we came back, he seems to have been lazy, which is not in line with his previous work attitude, is there anything else in his mind?

I nervously wondered whether to say hello to him in person or talk to him in private. Well, there is nothing to tell people, perhaps, you should ask him face to face, ask his opinion, and then decide whether to spread it out.

"Zizheng, I went to Luoyang, there are a few months before and after, Qingzhou here thanks to your support before and after, Zizheng has worked hard, come, I will replace the wine with tea, toast Zizheng with a cup, thank you Zizheng for guarding Qingzhou, so that I have no worries."

I stood up, raised my glass respectfully, and offered tea to Zizheng.

Tian Feng may have also noticed something, and he also stood up and raised the teacup in his hand to Fu Zhi: "Zizheng is working hard, Qingzhou has all industries to be prosperous, thanks to Zizheng's maintenance, I also follow the lord and offer tea to Zizheng." ”

Frustrated Professor slowly stood up, picked up the cup and said: "Grant Tian to live under the forest, mediocre and mediocre to wait for the end of his life, the lord does not give him stupidity, and he visits the house of the grant, so that he can show his strengths." The lord of Qingzhou is determined, and the whole county of Qingzhou is entrusted and awarded, this kind of trust, only tears, for the lord to run around the horse, in order to repay the lord. ”

At this point, the tone of the frustrated professor became more and more severe: "However, what the lord has done recently has made the lord puzzled, and today I will take this opportunity to ask the lord." In the past, there were Qi people, who collected an extra three or five buckets of rice, so they wanted to change their wives and change their clothes; Qi Huan Gong, only to prosper the business of the king, he thought of building a building and building a platform; Wu Wangfu was poor, but he defeated Xiao Guoyue, so he thought about rewarding the ministers, marrying beauties, drinking fine wine, and sitting on a high platform. The ancients were in the past, and now the people are here, the lord is only in Qingzhou, this Qingzhou is only two counties, the lord wants to marry a beauty, reward his subordinates, the ministers do not think it is wrong, but to be complacent with their ambitions, arrogant and extravagant, and thus prosperous. Plagiarism is not allowed.

Today, everyone is here, I want to ask the lord, what is the will of the lord in the world? In a county in Qingzhou? If the lord only cares about a county in Qingzhou, forgetting that all the people in the world are still wailing, now, Qingzhou has been decided, I have completed the trust of the lord, and all the lords will be rewarded and resigned. ”

I was shocked: "Zizheng, do you want to abandon me?" Qingzhou is decided, and I want to rely on Zizheng's talents. ”

Frustrated replied: "It's not that I'm bent on begging, I just can't bear to see the lord's ambition gradually lose and the generals' arrogance gradually rises." Qingzhou, dangerous land, the yellow turban has not been extinguished, the city has not been repaired, the road has not been completed, and the four borders have not been peaceful. With the flatness of Qingzhou's boundaries, in case something happens, the enemy army can go to the city day and night, if the princes are immersed in peace and happiness, and do not seek progress, I am afraid that we will not even be able to keep Qingzhou. ”

I gently put the teacup on the table and bowed deeply to Fu Zhi: "What Zizhi said, what he said, it is really golden and good, it has been taught." However, the official positions in Qingzhou, I don't take it, wouldn't it be cheap to others, all the sages have been with me for many years, I have been in peace, and I dare not enjoy it privately, so I will reward everyone to show that I am happy with you, the heart of the fist, and I hope that the son is understanding. Zizheng, don't abandon me."

Tian Feng was beside him, feeling quite embarrassed. Because he is also a supporter and beneficiary of my reward, and as a strategist, he does not see the danger, which really makes him a little embarrassed. Of course, the generals also felt embarrassed.

In this dull atmosphere, Fu Zhi replied resolutely: "Now that the official position of Qingzhou has been decided, there is no point in talking about whether it is suitable or not, and the lord's desire to share with his subordinates is already clear to you." The lord now has a large number of strategists and fierce generals, which is comparable to Liu Yan of Yizhou. However, the two places under the lord's command, Izumo and Qingzhou in western Liaoning, are both war-torn places, and if they can't hold it with all their might, how dare they relax a little.

Besides, Fang Jin's Han family is declining, the middle officials and nobles are wreaking havoc in the court, and the scholars and clansmen are crying to the corner, I just want to rely on the talents of the lord to cleanse the Qing Dynasty and make the upper and lower look new. If the lord is satisfied with Qingzhou, the public will be satisfied with the small officials, and he will be disappointed by the wishes, and he will resign for the reason, and the official will also hope that the lord will appoint someone else. ”

I stepped forward, tightly pulled the sleeve of my frustrated coat, looked at him with expectant eyes, and sincerely persuaded him: "Zizheng, I already know that I was wrong today, and I hope you will give me a chance to make amends." There is indeed no arrogance in Bei's heart, and he still hopes that his son is clear. ”

Tian Feng and Tian Chou also came forward to persuade them, the generals couldn't interject on the side, so they had to show their expectant eyes, Zhang Fei was eager to try, as if he wanted to say something, but Guan Yu looked cold.

I glanced around and took in your reactions. If I give such a suggestion, I will inevitably be criticized by everyone in the future, and this person is what I need to fight the world, so I have to find a way to protect it.

Looking at Guan Yu's expression, I silently figured out, Guan Yu was born in a commoner, and was oppressed by the scholar doctor since he was a child, and developed his arrogant and compassionate character.

glanced at Zhang Fei again, Zhang Fei was the owner of a large manor from a family, and his class view led Zhang Fei to respect the doctor and not to be sympathetic to the pawn, so he finally died in the hands of his generals for no apparent reason.

With the invincibility of these two, if they can avoid their personality defects, will not make their image more perfect. I have an idea in my heart, and these will be gradually reminded of their changes in the future.

I smiled, pointed to the frustration and exclaimed, "Taking history as a mirror, we can know prosperity; Take copper as a reference, you can be dressed; Taking Zizheng as a reference, we can know right and wrong. Zizheng, upright people, honest and undeceiving. I am fortunate to have a son by my side, so I can act steadily, my lords, keep him for me. ”

Under everyone's best persuasion, Fu Zhu reluctantly dispelled his intentions. However, although I don't know whether his intentions are true or not, I can take this opportunity to warn everyone that the revolution has not yet succeeded, and that comrades still need to work hard, and it can be regarded as a success.

Looking at the guard guarding the door, I nodded and motioned for him to wait a little longer. The preparations to meet Gong Jing have been completed, and the guards have brought all the lanterns and are ready to follow me on the road. But it's rare to have this opportunity, everyone is here, and I want to say something more.

"The profit of business is ten times that of agriculture, and the hard work of agriculture is ten times that of business. Qingzhou is a war-torn place, since we have Guangxing commerce to benefit Qingzhou, we can't ignore the scruples, if all the people go to business, it will inevitably lead to a decline in grain production. Although grain production declines, grain prices will rise, and in the end, there will be more people who grow grain, but farmers can only grow grain once a year, and if there is a shortage of grain for a season, the people must endure a winter, so I decided that within three years in Qingzhou, there will be no tax on agriculture. If there is no tax on agriculture, the grain will be profitable, and the farmers will cultivate with peace of mind, and the grain in Qingzhou can be guaranteed.

However, if people do not pay taxes, they have no sense of responsibility, and they have no sense of identity and belonging to the government. For example, the counties and townships organized the training of the people during the slack time in the farm, so that the soldiers could be hidden from the people, and although the training of the people was to compensate for the taxes, we did not give them any food when they came to train, and it was not like a word.

In addition, the civic teams of townships and counties are usually responsible for public security in various places, and if they do not have some salary income, they will not be able to last long. Since we have not collected their taxes, they should also pay for the security of these counties and townships. Therefore, can we consider letting the township elders composed of each county and township agree on a number every year to use it to maintain law and order and train the people?

Of course, in order to prevent the village elders from getting bigger, the right to arrest and judge ordinary public security cases belongs to them, and the trial power is still modeled on Izumo City, and the circuit judge we dispatched will hear it on the spot. How is it? ”

Frustrated, he replied contemplatively: "Well, if all this money is borne by the peasants, and the population of the townships and counties is uneven, I am afraid that the township with many people will be rich in money and wealth, and the peasants will not be able to afford it if there are few people, so it will lose the original intention of the lord." ”

Tian Feng hesitated and said: "I'm afraid it is not possible to only collect the poll tax, some people's families have thousands of acres, but there are only a few people, and some people have no tiles, but the house is full of children, and the poll tax is used to offset all the taxes, I am afraid that it will bring new injustice." ”

I tilted my head, glanced at Tian Chou, and asked straightforwardly, "What does Zitai think?" ”

Tian Chou replied confidently: "Both taxes are collected, and the tax per mu and the poll tax are used to let the people of Qingzhou know to fulfill their obligations." As for the amount of tax to be paid, I suggest that one type of tax be fixed, and the other is not fixed - that is, the poll tax should be fixed, and the tax on acres should be relaxed. The poll tax is paid by us at a fixed rate, which is levied every year and adjusted every ten years. As for the amount of tax per acre to be paid, all the people who pay the poll tax have the right to nominate the village elders to participate in the formulation of the tax rate per acre.

Let the counties and townships report the annual security expenses, and then calculate the tax rate they need to pay based on this amount. If the tax burden of a certain place is too heavy, the lord can reduce it according to the situation and subsidize the other party with a poll tax. In this way, the tax rate will come from the people, and the people will not feel bitter. In addition to paying the poll tax locally, the tax per mu of land shall be set by each township and county according to the number of shops, and shall be implemented after being approved by the owner. Put it in the business tax and pay it to the Qingzhou government. How is it? ”

Qingzhou is engaged in the government, why haven't I heard of it, is it Linzi Gong Jing?

Fu Zhu immediately agreed: "Zitai has a good strategy, lord, I think this is how to do it." However, the Qingzhou government is about to be completed, and the lord needs to appoint officials immediately so that they can perform their duties. ”

"Where's the Job?" I inquired.

"It's the big house behind the main public house, and we will build a government here, and the lord will work here as a driver in Qingzhou, so as to govern Qingzhou." Tian Chou bowed to answer my question.

"It's okay" I nodded: "If you are engaged in the government lord Bo Peng (in charge of the clerical officer), let Xianhe serve as the left and right military divisions, and the left and right military divisions will serve as the left and right military divisions, and the two military divisions will be responsible for the internal affairs of Qingzhou; In the central camp, the Governor's Office was set up, in charge of military administration, Zitai was appointed as the superintendent to supervise the Qingzhou army, Yun Chang, Yide was the left and right generals, commanding the army, and in the Acropolis, the Military Judge Advocate General's Office was set up, with Wang Yanfang (Wang Lie) as the military law supervisor, and Tian Shangtian Bugui as the military decree.

Our current official position is chaotic and disagrees with the imperial court, mainly because we are in the period of military law. When the chaos in Qingzhou is calmed down, we will officially grant you the corresponding official positions, and also, our official positions are different from those of the imperial court, so we will not give you food. The officials of the three places (Guan, Zhang, Jian Yong, and Tian Shang) awarded coins with the rank of school captain, and the rest of the officials were issued by the government to agree on a standard. ”

The generals agreed.

I turned around and pulled the sleeve of my shirt and suggested, "Zizheng, it's getting late, we'll discuss the rest tomorrow, let's go see Gong Yuanjun first, how about it?" ”

After my repeated apologies, my frustration seemed to have subsided a lot, and my emotions eased a lot, and when I saw my request, I immediately agreed. I immediately commanded, "Xianhe." I'm sorry for you to inform my family, Fu Hao, it's been hard all the way, you can rest first. Yun Chang, Yide, rest in peace. ”

"Let's go", I pulled the frustration and galloped to Linzi.

In Linzi City, when the official of the Gong Mansion saw my visit, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and quickly led me to Gong Jing's bedside. After not seeing him for a few months, Gong Jing's face was gray, his eyes were blank, his spirit was sluggish, and he was much haggard.

I looked at him worriedly, but I muttered in my heart, in history, he should have died in the year when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, that is, 5 years later, followed by Jiao He's inauguration as Qingzhou Thorn History, Jiao He took office, and died in less than two years, and then Zang Ba's own family Zang Hong. Zang Hong died less than a year after taking office, and then Tian Kai, Tian Kai was in office for less than four years, and was succeeded by Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, who was on the throne for less than four years, and Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao. Since then, Qingzhou has been Zang Ba's.

In comparison, Gong Jing has served in Qingzhou for the longest time (except for Zang Ba), but now it seems that he is about to become the shortest-lived one. What's going on? I couldn't figure it out.

"Rest assured," I took Gong Jing's hand and comforted me softly, "The Holy Lord sent me to Izumo to proclaim the decree, there are the best doctors in Izumo City, and I will definitely bring them to treat the emperor." ”

Gong Jing reluctantly opened his eyes and replied with difficulty: "Xuande, the rebellion in Jinan County has risen again, Qingzhou is in turmoil, I am sick in bed at this time, in this way, Qingzhou will rely on Xuande to support, I hope Xuande will not bear me." ”

"Let you rest assured", I comforted Gong Jing: "Actually, Yuan Gong's original son has already had a letter recommending me to serve under the envoy", I took out the letter that Yuan Tan handed over to me in Bohai County, and then said: "I am grateful for the heart of the envoy to treat me, so I did not take out a letter, so that the gentleman treats me kindly, and I am unforgettable, how dare I live up to the king's expectations." Qingzhou ****, the soldiers from the south, prepare to make Jun try his best to block it, the enemy from the north, prepare to make Jun resist it, the thief from the east, prepare to make Jun go all out to destroy it, with me Liu Bei in Qingzhou for a day, I will not let Xiao Xiao peep at my Qingzhou. ”

Gong Jing wanted to sit up excitedly, but was immediately stopped by me.

"I am from the disciple of Yuan Gong, and I have Yuan Gong's letter of recommendation, why didn't Xuande say it earlier, with Yuan Gong in charge, I don't feel at ease. Xuande, I will hand over the politics of Qingzhou to you, I hope you will clean Qingzhou for me. Gong Jing lay on the bed, tears in his eyes.

"Let you rest assured that you are recuperating from your injuries, and be prepared to make you serve this dog and horse." I shook his hand firmly and made a promise.

Out of the gate of Gong Jing's mansion, I stood on the street with Fu Zhu to calculate, everything in Guanghuan is undecided, and it is not suitable to stay in Linzi now, fortunately, Guanghuan is not far from Linzi, and it is too late to preside over Gong Jing's medical case study tomorrow morning, so we rushed back to Guanghuan overnight.

On the way back, I discussed the issue of guarding Qingzhou with Fu Zhu. After we hurried all the way back to Guanghuan, I was still unsatisfied, so I dragged the frustrated professor to the council hall and continued to discuss.

On this Qilu Plain, because there is no danger to defend, they have been attacking continuously for thousands of years, and they have developed the fierce folk customs of Qingzhou, and they are the best warriors. But because it is too easy to attack, in many dynasties, the enemy first attacked Qingzhou, the Anshi Rebellion originated in Fanyang County (Zhuo County) The first to capture Shandong was Shandong, and the Song Dynasty, lost Shandong, a place to raise horses, since then it has been sluggish, and has been defeated repeatedly.

If Qingzhou is to be prevented from attacking in the future, it is necessary to artificially create dangerous land for Qingzhou. To artificially create dangerous land, the first is to make the land of Qingzhou a castle, to ensure that the castle is built in every village, and the residents can go out of the castle to work and return to the castle to rest. In this way, the grain and grass materials were also concentrated in the walled city, the enemy

If the army wants to obtain food and grass on the spot, it must attack the fortresses one by one. Exhaust him.

Of course, the people's financial resources are limited, and we can't build the fortress too strong all at once. In the early stage, under the pretext of looting everywhere by the yellow turbans, the residents were gathered together and a simple fence was built for the people to guard according to the village. After that, the wall was strengthened year by year, and after one or two decades, the fortress was built. After the completion of the fortress, the residents are concentrated, and it is also easy to manage, and some things in the fortress can be let go of the residents to make their own decisions, and gradually cultivate their sense of participation in politics and autonomy......

After most of the residents moved into the fort, trees were planted on both sides of the road between the forts. In this way, when a village is attacked, the armed forces adjacent to the village can take advantage of their familiarity with the terrain to stealthily approach the enemy. Reinforcements and attacks the enemy.

The trees on both sides of the road should be dominated by fruit trees, which are close to the road for easy picking and transporting of fruit. If the fruit can be sold, the maintenance cost of the orchard is guaranteed. If you can't finish eating the remaining fruits, you can make wine and store them in the castle-like post stations along the road, which are difficult to attack and defend, so that no matter who leads the army to invade Qingzhou, he will have to capture the castles along the route one by one, and at the same time, he must always be on guard against cold arrows emerging from the dense forests in the front and back.

If the other party wants to attack with fire and burn down the woods, then let him burn it, and I want to see how many arson materials he can have. At most, he occupied the fortress on the outskirts of Qingzhou. But after burning down the fortress, it can only make the enemy lose the hearts of the people. Without the support of the people, he wants to occupy our periphery for a long time and hold on to our counterattack, and he needs great financial, material and human support, which is a terrible torture for the enemy's defenders.

"Lord, if you defend it with this, Qingzhou is impregnable. However, should we issue a ban on logging trees on both sides of the continent, but the ban does not state that it is for defense to avoid destruction by enemy forces? Well, planting trees on the roadside can allow pedestrians to get shade in the scorching sun, so we use this reason to say that it is to let the merchants shade, it is the Qingzhou trade road that is unobstructed, and it is forbidden to cut down the roadside fruit trees. ”

"Yes, Zizheng is thinking carefully, next year we will issue a new decree according to this, now is the season suitable for planting trees. Ordered all townships and counties to organize farmers to plant saplings along the road. Tell them that all taxes will be exempted from all taxes for farmers in Qingzhou this year, but they will be asked to plant a corresponding number of saplings according to the amount of taxes they have paid to offset the taxes. At the beginning of spring next year, we will accept it, and we will make up a cent of tax for the lack of a tree. ”

"However, it is forbidden to cut down trees along the road, so who will take care of the trees along the road, the people rely on firewood and grass for daily fire and cooking, and they are not allowed to cut down trees, should we plant some miscellaneous trees so that the people can burn the fire?" Frustrated advice.

"Stove", I suddenly thought of the stove: "The people burn the fire, most of them use their own stoves, this kind of stove has a low thermal efficiency ratio, it costs firewood and fire, we can let the people change to burn cast iron stoves, which can save a lot of firewood and grass." Zizheng, you make a note that when we go to Izumo this time, we must let them produce more iron furnaces. ”

"But how do we get the people to spend money on these iron furnaces? Although it is very expensive for the people to burn firewood and grass, it does not cost money, just go up the mountain to collect more, and then let the people spend money, it is not easy. Frustrated shook his head and sighed.

Hehe, doing publicity and planning, I have a lot of ideas in my pocket. "Well, the iron furnace can be made very beautifully, plus some iron art, such as casting flowers, casting beasts, and adding some decoration to the shape, I think, can be used as a tribute. Winter is coming, we will forge a perfect iron furnace and present it to the emperor, well, we can also offer iron furnaces to a few more lieutenants. Then, we announced in Qingzhou that only those with status are allowed to use this iron furnace.

In the early stage, we only allowed the use of iron furnaces by those above the meritorious level, and at the same time, the scope of use was strictly managed. By the time everyone in the civic class has an iron furnace. We're gradually lifting the ban to make sure that someone will use the furnace secretly, and when the ban is dead in name, we're announcing that the ban will be lifted. According to Izumo's production capacity, tens of thousands of citizens in Qingzhou, plus the aristocratic scholars in Luoyang, were enough for them to sell for a few years, and after a few years, the market was saturated, our ban was also relaxed, and the people could not do without the iron furnace. ”

"Also," I took a breath and added, "After Tian Chou has seen Longkou Port, we will make the next decision, there is a large amount of coal and stone in Longkou, and we can mine coal and stone for everyone to cook on the fire." Of course, planting weeds is also a way to plant weeds on both sides of the Yellow River, which can strengthen the embankment, so that there will be no floods in Qingzhou for 500 years.

In addition, after planting weeds and trees, livestock can be raised, and the people of Qingzhou can eat meat. We have our backs to the sea, and when Liu Zhou comes back from Yizhou, we can also go to the sea to catch fish and shrimp, which will greatly reduce our dependence on food, and we can free up more land to plant grass and trees. It is also possible to free up more manpower to serve in the military and business. Qingzhou will be as stable as an iron wall in the future. Except for the people of Qingzhou, no one wants to come to Qingzhou to herd horses."

Frustrated by this beautiful scene, he trembled with excitement: "The lord is planning a millennium plan for the people of Qingzhou, if the people of Qingzhou are rich, the people can return to their hearts, and the lord can smoothly implement the idea of hiding soldiers in the people and hiding wealth in the people." The people of Qingzhou are thousands of years later, and they also have to thank the lord for his plan today. ”

"Yes" I raised my head and looked up at the dark sky - give me 5 years, let me carry out this proposition, I will return Dahan to a strong Qingzhou, and I will once again lay the hope for the rise of the nation.

"This winter and next spring, Qingzhou is going to build a big project, and it can't afford the war anymore, Zizheng, do you want to order Guan Zhang and the two rangers to deter the neighbors. Also, in the coming years, we will have to put up with the harassment of the Yellow Turbans for a while, building roads, trees, castles and water networks through cash-for-work every autumn and winter. At the same time, it weakened the power of the Yellow Turbans and attracted the population to settle in Qingzhou. Of course, in order to ensure that the court and scholars do not come to harass, do we still have to acquiesce to the actions of the Yellow Turbans? After we have accumulated strength, we will use the power of thunder to suppress the yellow turbans of the two counties of Jinan and Taishan, what do you think? ”

Fu Zhi replied without hesitation: "This matter is easy, as long as they don't leave Jinan Mansion, they will be left to fend for themselves." As soon as they cross the line, we crush them hard. After a few times, they will obediently stay in Jinan County. When we finish building Qingzhou in five years, maybe the bandits will see our benevolent government and don't need to use swords and soldiers, maybe they will surrender the city. However, we have to take into account that if the imperial court exterminates the bandit leader Zhang Jiao, will it raise troops to Qingzhou? ”

"I don't think I need to think about this issue for the time being. The imperial court is now worried about the bandits near Luoyang, and the Yingchuan bandits have just been destroyed, and now the imperial court has raised troops to Runan. There are many mountains in Runan, and the bandits are gathering in the mountains, and the imperial court will completely exterminate them, I think it will take at least two years. As for Zhang Jiao, I don't think he can support it this year, and when Zhang Jiao is destroyed, the imperial court will at least stop in winter.

However, in the spring of next year, there are two more unstable places near Luoyang - Liangzhou, Bingzhou, plus Hanzhong Zhang Lu, Liaoxi Xianbei, Montenegro Zhang Yan and so on. Jinan Yellow Turban is far away from Luoyang, and there are not many bandit ferries, so they cannot harass Sili across the river. In my opinion, the imperial court may not be able to take Jinan and Mount Tai into account for a while. Qingzhou may have to live in the shadow of the yellow scarf for a long time. In my opinion, let's first stabilize the rest of the counties in Qingzhou, and then raise troops to exterminate them. ”

Frustrated with his head agreed: "Okay, okay, let's make a decision like this, tomorrow at dawn, I will gather all the generals to assign work, so that I will not accompany the lord to Linzi." ”

"It's important to see Gong Yuanjun's medical case, and it's a small matter, tomorrow I'll bring some ginseng tea, let Yuanjun slowly recuperate, and when I invite a doctor back from Izumo, it is estimated that Jun's illness will be cured."

While packing up his things, he suggested that "Lord, it's late at night, you go back to sleep first, Lord's newlywed husband is not long ago, and he will go back to Guanghuan to discuss until late at night, if Mrs. complains, Huang Gong is afraid that it will not be easy to explain."

I'll have to write down what my lord just said, and I'll probably be busy for a while. Guards, add a lamp. ”

I shook my head and explained: "I'm not in Qingzhou, thanks to Zizheng's busy work and stabilizing Qingzhou, how can I bear to let Zizheng be busy alone until ......"

As he spoke, the hairs on my back suddenly stood up, with a murderous aura, who? I immediately stopped talking, pressed the knife in one hand, and riveted my spirit with all my might.

Affected by my abrupt stoppage, Frustrated raised his head, saw my nervous appearance, followed my gaze, and looked at the guards who were walking with the lamp.

"Stop", Fu Yushun picked up the paperweight on the table and scolded loudly: "You are not a guard, how did you get in?" ”

The person who came casually closed the door, pressed the door tightly with his back, and said calmly: "Xuande Gong is so alert, but I have been lurking in Guanghuan for a few months, and I think I know a lot about the dress of the guards, how did you find out that I am not a guard?" ”

Frustrated, he waved his paperweight and shouted, "Someone, there's an assassin." ”

I slowly drew my saber and stared at the assassin.

Unfortunately, as soon as I entered this chamber, I removed my arm shield and breastplate. Now there is only one set of unicorn armor on the whole body, and if it weren't for the complexity of putting on and taking off, I might have untied it.

The Kirin Armor has a super ability to shoot with bows and arrows and stab with sharp weapons, but since the Kirin Armor is a soft armor, it is made extremely light and soft in order to facilitate the wearing of it. Therefore, it has no ability to resist blunt blows. If the Assassin were to carry a blunt axe, the unicorn armor would be useless.

Outside the door, there was the sound of running, followed by the sound of banging on the door.

I pulled the Assassin behind me and dismissed the Assassin's confusion lightly: "Your footsteps are so soft. ”

"Ahh It dawned on the Assassin.

"The clothes you wear are those of the guards, but your career as an assassin means that you can't swagger into the halls. And my guards, who don't need to be so vigilant, approach me quietly and silently - this is murderous. I, Liu Bei, have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and I have spent a lot of time in the pile of dead people, so I can't hide this murderous aura. I explained slowly.

Outside the door, there was a thunderous roar: "Who is so bold as to dare to stab my eldest brother, sons, dodge away, wait for me to hit the door." ”
