The sky is just dawning, the red sun is showing the horizon from the east, and the vendors in the morning market are just starting to go about their day's business. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There were no pedestrians in the streets and alleys, and early in the morning, I saw a group of well-armored cavalry hurrying in the direction of the palace.
At the gate of the government office, there was already a lot of traffic, the government and soldiers were loading and unloading goods, and the guards were even blocking the road in front of the government office.
One by one, they looked vigilant, and they surged up at the slightest disturbance, and if there were unaware people, they walked towards this side in a daze. will be rudely bombed away by the guards, without any reason, let alone explanation, if anyone dares to say more, they will either be beaten or directly arrested.
300 million taels of silver had to be transported to the capital by land, and Dorha couldn't keep a low profile. Originally, there was no need to make such a big move in batches, but unfortunately Dorha was not worried that the money would stay in the government.
In order to be able to rush back to the capital as soon as possible and deposit the money in his treasury, he couldn't take care of it so much, and since he couldn't hide it, he simply didn't hide it.
Silver was loaded with thirty taels of carriages, and with the guards and retinue he carried, the team looked quite large. Dorha personally checked the silver taels, and after confirming that everything was correct, he immediately set off.
While it was still early, we walked all the way along the main road with no pedestrians from the north gate, and the whole road was already under martial law by the cavalry who set off first. The convoy was able to leave the north gate smoothly and smoothly and slowly along the open official road!
Ye Shaolong took the second and third children early, hid in a small teahouse along the street, and watched Dorha's convoy out of the North City Gate.
Originally, he wanted to see what happened to Su Xiaocao, but because of the carriage, he couldn't see him at all. The expression on his face was slightly disappointed, and the second was to see what the tiger and them were doing, but it was a pity that until Dorha's convoy left the city, Ye Shaolong didn't notice that there were those suspicious characters following Dolha.
"Second and third, you two wait to ride horses and follow to see the situation, you can't see the people of the Se family in the city, and I don't know how they arranged it? Remember to follow from afar, and come back to me immediately if there is any situation. Ye Shaolong's eyes still scanned the pedestrians outside the street, and he commanded without looking back.
The second and third didn't dare to say much, and after agreeing, they left the teahouse first, leaving Ye Shaolong alone to squat here.
Dolha and his entourage escorted a large sum of money back to the capital, and for some reason, this matter suddenly spread in the provincial capital, and all kinds of gossip flew all over the sky. In addition, the situation of the Ye family is no longer a secret, and as soon as this matter spreads, there will be no unbelievers!
On the stall opposite the teahouse where Ye Shaolong was, Huang Jie was having breakfast, and he was almost plotted by the junior brother who followed him two days ago. Fortunately, he saw through his scheming in advance and escaped by luck!
After killing his younger brother, he wanted to go back to the old beggar to settle the score, but when he went back, the old man was nowhere to be found, and even the woman he knocked out was gone.
For this reason, Huang Jie could only put this matter on hold for the time being, but those eight children also found him, and Huang Jie now not only has to find a way to support himself but also take care of the eight children.
And last night, the rumors all over the city about the thirteenth prince of Dolha caught his attention, and his idea of wanting to fight the money alone was obviously unrealistic.
Fortunately, he didn't want everything, he only needed to make a fortune, and as long as he stole a little bit of 300 million taels of silver, it would be enough for him and his children to settle down and make a living.
It was impossible to rob it clearly, but Huang Jie still felt that he had a lot to do by stealing some secretly, so he stayed at this must-pass place early in the morning and observed Dorha's convoy carefully.
If you want to steal silver taels under the guard of 3,000 soldiers, this is obviously not a simple job, and you may die at any time. But the greater the risk, the higher the reward, the lower the reward, as long as he does this trip, he and his children will be able to live freely in the future.
Huang Jie also believes that there will be no fewer people with the same mentality as him, so he must not only keep an eye on the movements of the Dorha team now. You should also take time to pay attention to the movements of your peers, so as not to cause a big problem when you do it.
After settling the bill, Huang Jie immediately left the city, took the path and continued to follow Dorha's convoy. Ye Shaolong watched Huang Jie's movements clearly from beginning to end in the teahouse.
Ye Shaolong didn't know who Huang Jie was, but he knew that this person must have been thinking about Dorha's money, and it was not difficult to guess his purpose from his sneaky gaze.
Now for Ye Shaolong, as long as it is aimed at Dorha, he is his friend, so he will not meddle in things. He was also happy for this, anyway, the more people went to fight Dorha's idea, the easier it would be for him to accomplish his goal.
As for whether the people of the Se family will be unhappy in this matter because too many people are robbing money in the end, it is not something he needs to worry about. In the end, he just wanted to rescue Su Xiaocao, and by the way, disgusting Dolha, these were enough.
Ye Shaolong didn't know that the news that Dolha would transport money to Beijing would spread in the provincial capital, and it was the Se family who did it themselves. The three Se brothers are absolute old foxes on the road, risking great danger of exposing themselves to rob money.
This is definitely not what they think, and if the news spreads, there will be a lot of people in the road who will hear about it. There are many people who make up their minds, and with this absolute strength, the Se family will definitely be able to fish in troubled waters and do things in secret, and they will not expose themselves easily.
On a small hillside more than ten miles away from the city, the three Se brothers stood on horseback, squinting at the convoy slowly passing by under their feet.
The second child of the Se family is a young man who looks like a scholar, and the appearance of the eldest Sehu is completely different, and he has a gentlemanly style of weak writing. But if you are deceived by its appearance, you are likely to die a miserable death.
The second child of the Se family can only be regarded as average in his legs and feet, but he is definitely the most insidious and vicious of the three brothers, and the news of Dorha was also spread at his suggestion.
"Second child, do you think this will work? As soon as the news spreads, nearly 1,000 people will come to the troubled waters just to what we can grasp so far. Don't wait for a while in vain, and in the end we won't get anything! The eldest Sehu frowned, a worried expression.
Since he sent people to spread the news last night, he has been worried about this problem, and in the morning he had to report that nearly 1,000 people and dozens of forces had taken action. Even if he has always trusted the IQ of the second child, he has to worry about it! After all, there are many people who grab food, and it is inevitable that something will happen.
