Chen Di ascended to the head of Qinyang City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Liu Mingtian has been waiting there for a long time.

On the top of the city, in addition to the seventy or eighty officials, there are also more than 300 soldiers of the Liu family.

Liu Mingtian knew that if the anti-people entered the city, the more than 300 hoards of refined food in his family would definitely be looted, so this time he invested a lot of money and dispatched all the family soldiers.

Chen Di looked at the countryside, and there was a black oppression under the city. But if you look closely, these anti-people people have no weapons at all. If you look closely, where is the anti-people? It's clear that they are all old and weak, women and children!

In the crowd under the city, a white-headed old man walked out.

The white-headed old man shouted: "All the lords in the county, I am Zhao Laowen, the township leader of Zhuqiao Township!" I want to say a few words for the folks of Liuxiang! ”

Liu Mingtian shouted at the city with his throat pulled: "Speak! ”

This fellow Zhao was wiping tears from his eyes and said: "This year there was a drought first, and then a locust plague. The crops in several townships are all unharvested! The common people are miserable! First, the grass roots are eaten, and the grass roots are eaten and the bark is peeled! When the bark is stripped off, eat Guanyin soil! If you eat too much Guanyin soil, people will be swelled to death!

There is really no way to live in the countryside! But all the young people who can walk the way have already gone out to beg for food and escape the famine! The rest of the old and young women and children really can't survive in the countryside, so they want to run around the city!

The more than 10,000 villagers in our six townships are not anti-people, they just want to go into the city to ask for a bite to eat, and they also ask the adults of the county government for permission! ”

At this time, Liu Mingtian finally figured out the reality of the "anti-people" people. It turned out to be more than 10,000 hungry old and weak women and children who couldn't walk! What are you afraid of what they will do?

Liu Mingtian said to Chen Di: "Chen County Order, you look at my methods!" ”

Chen Di didn't know what Liu Mingtian was going to do.

Liu Mingtian shouted below: "The Zhao Xiangzheng who spoke just now, you come to the city, our county order has something to say to you!" ”

A small crack was opened in the city gate, and Zhao Laoxiang was entering the city and going up to the city.

As soon as he went to the city, Liu Mingtian asked: "You are the head of Zhuqiao Township?" ”

Fellow Zhao kowtowed and arched his hand: "It's the old decay!" ”

Another unexpected scene happened to Chen Di!

Liu Mingtian had a sinister smile on his face, and then he took out the waist knife of a family soldier, walked in front of Zhao Laoxiangzheng, and inserted a knife into Zhao Laoxiangzheng's chest!

Liu Mingtian ordered his soldiers to cut off the head of Zhao Laoxiangzheng, and then used a bamboo pole to stand on the head of the city.

"The people in the city have listened to me! The county seat is not something you can enter if you want to! If you dare to cross the gates, you will rebel! This old man surnamed Zhao is your fate! Liu Mingtian shouted viciously.

Chen Di didn't expect Liu Mingtian to be so vicious.

Those in the city are all the people under the rule of Qinyang County! He, Liu Mingtian, is a county minister, so he doesn't care about the life or death of the people? Regardless of the life or death of the people, this Zhao fellow was saying a word for the people, and he was beheaded by Liu Mingtian and Liu Xiancheng?

Chen Di secretly made up his mind in his heart that he must get rid of Liu Mingtian and save the lives of more than 10,000 hungry people outside the city.

Liu Mingtian instructed Xu Inspector and the leader of the family soldiers: "Listen to me, don't let a single Diao people into the city!" ”

Xu Inspector asked: "What should I do if they don't leave at the gate of the city?" ”

Liu Mingtian said: "Don't go? I see that these people are already skinned and bones, and if they are willing to sit at the gates of the city and wait for death, let them wait for death! ”

Chen Di said: "Seniors, treat the people under your rule like this, isn't it。。。。。 ”

Liu Mingtian said: "Hmph, Chen County Order, you are young, you don't know what is powerful!" This place in Qinyang has always been a poor mountain and bad water! If Diao people enter the city, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

Liu Mingtian inspected Xu again: "Those who try to enter the city will be killed!" ”

When Chen Di returned to the county office, the first thing he did was to find Liang Erhei.

Chen Di ordered Liang Erhei to go out immediately to visit the specific location of the Liu family's granary.

At this time, Chen Di came over from Xiaohong, the maid who was coming from Liu Mingtian's mansion.

Chen Di immediately shut his mouth. You must know that this maid Xiaohong is from Liu's mansion, who knows if Liu Mingtian will let her do eyeliner?

Xiaohong said: "My lord, I want to ask you for something. ”

Chen Di asked, "What's the matter, Sister Xiaohong?" ”

Xiaohong said: "My lord, my parents are from Zhuqiao Township. My family is poor, and I was sold into Liu's house since I was a child. I heard that the villagers in Zhuqiao Township are all at the city gate, and my parents must be among them. I ask the adults to be gracious and let my parents into the city, and let our folks in Zhuqiao Township into the city! ”

Chen Di shook his head: "Alas, let the people into the city? Easier said than done. ”

Chen Di didn't expect that this Xiaohong was also a sufferer. By the way, since Xiaohong has been a subordinate in Liu's Mansion since she was a child, will she know the location of Liu's granary?

Chen Di asked Xiaohong: "Sister Xiaohong, let me ask you, do you know that there is a big granary in Liu's Mansion?" So where is the granary? ”

Xiaohong thought for a while and said, "I once heard Master Liu say to the head of the family soldiers in the mansion that the granary must be guarded. Then the head of the sect said that no one would know about the twenty or thirty haunted dilapidated houses in the southwest of the city。。。。。 ”

A dilapidated house in the southwest of the city? Haunted?

After Xiaohong left, Chen Di ordered Liang Erhei: "You immediately go to the southwest of the city and find out where there are haunted dilapidated houses." ”

At this time, the old housekeeper Yan walked in the door and said, "My lord, I went out to buy vegetables yesterday, and I heard that there is a haunted house in the southwest of the city. ”

Chen Di became interested: "You talk about it." ”

Old housekeeper Yan said: "In the southwest of the city, there are twenty or thirty houses. It is said that it was originally a big family surnamed Wang in the original county town. Later, this Wang Dahu offended Liu Xiancheng, and he inexplicably ate a lawsuit and was arrested. The twenty or thirty houses were bought by Liu Xiancheng. Later, in these twenty or thirty houses, there were ghosts walking back and forth at night. The people in the county have seen it more than once. Later, Sun Daxian, the leader of the Witch Cult, went to see it and said that there were dozens of powerful ghosts living in that house. No one dares to walk around the house anymore! ”

Chen Diluo thought about it and figured out the doorway. Hoarding a large amount of grain in this year of famine is a serious crime in the Great Ming Law. Even if the government does not pursue it, the hungry people will know about it, and they will rob it.

Liu Mingtian must have set up the granary there, and he didn't want others to know, so he pretended to be a ghost to scare the people and prevent the people from getting close to those houses.

Chen Di sent Liang Erhei to investigate, and Liang Erhei came back a few hours later.

Around twenty or thirty "ghost houses", there are seventy or eighty Liu family soldiers guarding them.

Are dozens of dilapidated houses worth guarding by the soldiers of Liu's Mansion? It's clear, it must be where Liu Mingtian hides grain!

Now that you know the location of the Liu family's granary, it's easy to do!

Chen Di said to Liang Erhei: "Tomorrow, you accompany me on a trip to Yandang Mountain!" ”
