Chapter 419: Familiar Blackmail

At night, the very cold moonlight with a bright white, a devastated star, beautiful as a dream, the air seemed to smell the smell of blood outside the city, the retreating thieves camped twenty miles away from the city, and did not leave for some reason, which also made Xiaochuan very strange. Sitting in this carriage, it was still very cold, and Leah was wearing a long white dress, wearing white gloves, and there was a white flower on the back of the glove hand, and a shawl with long blond hair. She shivered coldly. said: "Why is it so cold today?" She regretted following Ogawa out. Glared at Ogawa.

"Hey! You want to come out with me to the feast! Xiao Chuan waved his hand a little dissatisfied, this Leah was really disobedient and had to let herself take her out, or was she so disobedient.

"Cold, let's warm up!" Xiao Chuan pulled her down into his arms, and Lia immediately struggled, her face was red and she didn't dare to make a sound, and said, "Let go, what are you going to do!" Mrs. Chu was outside, she naturally didn't dare to make a loud noise, but she gritted her teeth and did warm up a lot.

"Doesn't it feel much warmer? There is a warmer one" Xiao Chuan whispered in Leah's ear, her face was flushed, and she suddenly said, "Don't!" Mrs. Chu's face turned red, and she continued to look at the dark night in front of her, and she could hear the sound of nothingness in her ears. The carriage shook even more violently.

got out of the carriage and came to the king's mansion, Xiaochuan got out of the carriage and stretched out his waist and didn't feel cold, Leah in the back wiped his long skirt with a handkerchief and sprayed perfume to dilute the strange smell, his flushed face brushed his long golden hair with disgust, and stepped on high heels with some difficulty, and said, "It's all your fault" She snorted.

She walked a little hard, she only felt a tingling feeling in her legs, and her body was weak for a while, and she could only walk normally with the support of Mrs. Chu, and the two walked like sisters supporting each other, Mrs. Chu smiled and said; "Xiaochuan, what if you treat Leah like this for a while, if someone sees it at the banquet!" Leah touched her crystal nose and said, "Don't worry, I won't fall suddenly!" She said as she endured the discomfort.

She stepped on her high heels and made a stomping sound, and Xiao Chuan smiled and said, "Okay, it won't be like this next time, who told you to complain about the cold first!" Xiao Chuan touched his nose and glanced at Leah, is it because he had just finished the battle with him, and the flame in his heart was suddenly magnified.

So he led the two into the mansion, and a servant took Xiao Chuan and the others into it, and unlike the flocks of hungry people in the dry land outside, inside was a luxurious courtyard, and the moonlight reflected in the lake in the courtyard with mottled white shadows, with a dreamlike beauty, and the fragrance of flowers and plants came from both sides.

The inner hall is very large and the inner hall is already full of guests, among which King Zhou sits on the main seat, on both sides is his chief military officer Chen Yongfu in the city, and a guard general outside the city, in history, this Chen Yongfu is surrendered Li Zicheng Xiaochuan suspects that he and this Li Zicheng secretly communicate with each other, as for He Renlong, it is completely unnecessary, they are greedy and will not trade with the thieves, so that there is no benefit but will cause trouble for themselves, because the thieves themselves are not fed and clothed, where do they get the money to bribe officials, Unless it is really someone who believes that he is dissatisfied with the government and has a strong sense of justice! Obviously, He Renlong and the others are not like each other at all!

The patriarchs of the family on both sides were all looking at the men who walked in Xiaochuan who defeated Li Zicheng's army, but some people had another color in their eyes, resentment and disdain, Li Zicheng retreated, and some people naturally thought that the city was stable and let them spend money to feed such a large army, and they were naturally not happy, they exchanged heads and ears to each other and didn't know what they were talking about.

Leah sat down with difficulty holding the table and glanced at Xiao Chuan hatefully, just looking at the food on the table, her eyes revealed an inexplicable color, originally a woman like her was not qualified to sit and eat, but Na He Renlong left a place for Leah in order to please Xiao Chuan, Leah felt that He Renlong was good, so she looked at the food in front of her and drooled.

King Zhou stood up with an inexplicable color on his face, looked at Xiaochuan and said: "Haha, Lord Guogong, Kaifeng was besieged by thieves this time, thanks to you for fighting thieves and rescuing the people of Kaifeng!" He raised his glass and drank a glass of wine. Everyone applauded and praised him for his good drinking, but Xiaochuan was a little confused, this guy's wine glass is very small and the wall is also huge, so he will be praised for his good drinking!

He Renlong came to flatter and came over to toast to express his subordinates' respect and gratitude to their superiors. King Zhou wiped his eyes, could it be that this person is not He Renlong? Chen Yongfu said strangely: "When did He Renlong become so polite? "Just now, I was talking nonsense, asking those patriarchs for money and food, and now I have become an obedient general who can be used as a role model like a different person. How could this Qin Xiaochuan impress such a fierce general.

Mrs. Chu and Leah in the back attracted the attention of everyone, Mrs. Chu's noble temperament and beautiful face were like a fatal poison to men, and Leah in the back was dressed in a white dress with a different exotic style, all of which made everyone have a refreshing feeling, but her miserable eating appearance made everyone have no good impression of her. Mrs. Chu kept coughing next to her, and she also ignored it. All the patriarchs looked at each other with disdain.

A brightly dressed patriarch with an inexplicable color on his face stood up and saluted Xiao Chuan first, and said, "Lord Guogong, the old man wants to ask, when will you start a war with the thieves outside the city!" ”

"When will General Qin go to war with the thieves, what do you care" He Renlong snorted.

"Yes, I heard that Lord Guogong and the road fought with this thief and won a big victory! Naturally, if you go out of the city and fight, you will definitely be able to win a big victory," the patriarchs stood up and said one after another.

The generals behind Xiao Chuan had a bad face, Xiao Chuan smiled, and said, "The thief cavalry is extraordinary!" Don't go out of the city wolf station! "Nonsense, I just came to drive us away, how could Xiaochuan be happy.

"Yes, the main force of thieves outside the city still exists, if you rush out at this moment! I'm afraid I'll be ambushed! Wang Yanchen also said that there are already some family patriarchs whose faces are not good-looking, they think that you can actually defeat the enemy army on the road, and your combat effectiveness is so strong, since you can win a field battle once, why can't you win a second time.

"We all understand the combat strength of the heroes under General Qin, and the thieves are naturally not a problem!" The patriarch said, his thin body and an inexplicable coldness on his face.

King Zhou coughed and eased the embarrassing atmosphere, but he didn't expect this group of patriarchs to directly open their mouths to drive people away, and the following patriarch said, "My Wang family has received this great drought and fed the army with no thousand taels, Lord Wang, please forgive me for being rude" He hugged his fists and said, all the patriarchs sneered, and said that they would no longer give money and grain to support the army, and they would cut off the food and grass of Xiaochuan and other armies, Xiaochuan and others were furious, there was not much grain and grass left in the army, and they even had to cut off the grain and grass, which was to force them to go out of the city and fight with thieves.

The patriarchs echoed this, saying that they no longer had money and food to support the emaciated old man led by the army, and said, "My lord, it's better to fight the thieves as soon as possible."

Xiao Chuan laughed, this group of patriarchs is still so routine, and said, "Okay, we will leave Kaifeng in a few days!" Later, Cao Bianjiao and others were shocked and said, "My lord! Not good! Our army lacks cavalry, and it is simply difficult to catch the rogue! ”

The patriarchs were overjoyed and thought that their threat had an effect, but Xiao Chuan sneered: "The whole division will be pulled out, and it will go north to Shaanxi in the near future, and fight Zhang Xianzhong!" ”

"My lord, what about Luoyang" That Zhou Wang immediately stood up, his face cried, and said, what else should Luoyang do!

The patriarchs turned pale, but they didn't expect Xiaochuan to do this, wouldn't Kaifeng be besieged by thieves again! Bai Guangen behind Xiao Chuan said: "I heard that every time Li Zicheng enters a city, he must first destroy the big families in the city and distribute their wives and daughters to the soldiers!" I heard that it will be boiled in a pot, if it is like Lord Wang! They like to eat your kind of meat the most, so you can do it for yourself. Bai had a sword and gave it to Lord Wang for self-defense! He sneered.

The royal patriarch's face was pale and trembling with horror, he looked at Xiao Chuan and the others and swallowed his saliva, and when he saw the other party's disdainful expression, he said, "You, how can you be like this" The bronze wine bottles on his table were all knocked to the ground, and the fine wine was sprinkled on the ground, and the candlelight shone on the ground on a pool of fine wine, reflecting his miserable white face.

"I still have some money and food at home," some of the patriarchs relented and began to say.

King Zhou wiped the sweat stains on his face and said: "I still have 10,000 taels of silver in my house, and the general will take it to the army" A retainer behind him was shocked: "Lord, so much!" ”

"Nonsense! It is important to save his life" He gritted his teeth and said, Li Zicheng browled down the next city, who was the most unlucky? Family? No, of course they are the children of the clan, but they are the worst, not counting all the killings, sometimes even the ancestral tomb will suffer, if it is made into a blessing banquet, it is the worst, I heard Xiaochuan say this, but this week the king was the first to take out his own money.

Xiao Chuan coldly glanced at the crowd in front of him, and said: "All the families, the Lun family's wealth, are divided into upper, middle and lower grades, and the upper family has 10,000 silver!" Medium 5,000, inferior 3,000! Behind him, Wang Yanchen was a little surprised, and said, "This? Isn't it too much! ”

"Hmph, what's wrong with this group of moths letting blood!" Cao Bianjiao felt that it didn't matter, so he said.

All the patriarchs were shocked, and they were angry at this naked threat, and one patriarch said angrily, "You! Why are you so blackmailing me and the people! ”

"Oh! Those who don't want to pay the money can choose to leave the city on their own" Xiao Chuan snorted coldly, the patriarch's face turned pale and hurriedly said that he was willing to give, and Wang Yanchen on the side was worried: "I'm afraid they will play and impeach us!" ”

"Hmph, you think you don't do it! They're not going to play it."
