Chapter 00082 Singing a Play
Seeing that Lu Kuan wilted, Zhao Shuo finally had confidence in his heart, what he was most worried about was that Lu Kuan would be stubborn to the end and get things done, when the time came, if he really alarmed the emperor's uncle, Zhao Shuo didn't think that uncle would sit idly by. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Returning to the main seat, Zhao Shuo tapped the table a few times. "Then what is Lord Lu going to do with this?"
"Ugh! This must have been done by the surrounding mob, and the lower officials sent someone to investigate, and once caught, they would be killed. After finishing speaking, Lu Kuan peeked in, he wanted to see how Zhao Shuo would react.
Zhao Shuo rubbed his temples with his index finger, looking pensive. "If this king is not mistaken, Lord Lu said just now that it is impossible for a mob to have such a powerful cannonball."
Lu Kuan really wants to give himself two big mouths at the moment, what are you doing with so much just now, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot.
"Ugh!" Lu Kuan pondered for a moment before he said. "It's true that the mob didn't have any of that before, but that's all from the past, maybe they'll be able to figure it out now."
After finishing speaking, Lu Kuan laughed awkwardly, even he didn't believe what he said just now, he was ready to accept Zhao Shuo's reprimand. But the next scene can really be described as a peak loop, because Zhao Shuo nodded heavily, looking completely approved.
"So that's it? No wonder Your Majesty is so worried about them, they can make such a powerful cannonball, let them make such a fuss, it will eventually become my Great Song's heart disease. Speaking of this, Zhao Shuo frowned. However, how did they know that this king had arrived in Yanzhou? And how did you know that this king lives here? All of this is too confusing. ”
Lu Kuan pushed everything to the mob, Zhao Shuo simply pretended to be confused, what he had to do now was to maximize the grain and grass he needed from Yanzhou.
Although it had been written in the holy decree that the local officials in the places he passed through would cooperate with him in exterminating the mob, Zhao Shuo had hardly received any substantial additions along the way. As if the local officials had unified their voices, they almost all said the same thing. All the supplies in the county have been handed over to support the northern battlefield. The grain and grass left by the county government is only enough for daily use, if the prince needs it, take it away! ’
Where is this to take away! It's no different from a threat. If Zhao Shuo took it, one day a magistrate would starve to death, and the local people would starve to death, and he would be blamed for it. Of course, these are not the main ones, the main thing is the things in the treasury of these counties, which are really pitiful.
For the poor grain and grass, Zhao Shuo felt that it was too much of a loss to carry a hidden danger that might affect his reputation.
At first, it was okay to say, but the farther away from Lin'an, the more pressure Zhao Shuo felt, because the only industry he had income from now was the Zhaocai Restaurant in Lin'an.
For the sake of food and grass, he thought of many ways, including opening a branch as soon as possible, and the production of silver horns was also put on the agenda.
But far water can't quench the thirst of the near, these things are not something that can be done in a period of time.
Solving the problem of grain and grass is also a major reason why Zhao Shuo came to Yanzhou. Because according to what Zhang Chujiu said, the current mob in Yanzhou is not serious, and it is also shouldering the heavy responsibility of supporting Wuzhou, so there is no need to think that the grain and grass here must be sufficient.
And Yanzhou is called Fuchun River, so there is no need to detour at all, so Zhao Shuo and his party finally chose here.
Zhao Shuo has been thinking of a way for the past two days, and yesterday he asked Ling Yun to take the materials for the production of the medicine cannonball with the Holy Decree, and he also wanted to see how this Lu Kuan would deal with it. To Zhao Shuo's surprise, this Lu Kuan really gave it when he saw the identity of the Holy Decree and Ling Yun, although there were very few things given, but Zhao Shuo still saw hope.
This unexpected accident, as well as Lu Kuan's inconsistent attitude, made Zhao Shuo see an opportunity.
After Zhao Shuo finished speaking, he looked at Lu Kuan. Lu Kuan's mind turned quickly, and when Zhao Shuo looked over, he spoke. "Lord Wang, the matter of your order to pacify the mob has already been reported, and Xia Guan wondered if it was because these mobs were afraid of the power of the prince and the tiger, so they planned to ...... on the road"
Speaking of this, Lu Kuan closed his mouth, he believed that by this point, Zhao Shuo had been able to understand what he was going to say.
"Do these mobs know that this king is coming to Yanzhou?" Zhao Shuo still had a contemplative expression.
"Lord Wang, there are a large number of mobs, and according to the humble opinion of the lower officials, these mobs may have arranged eyeliner and manpower in the surrounding prefectures and counties. The purpose is to sneak attack the prince! After finishing speaking, Lu Kuan let out a long breath, and everything was finally over.
Zhao Shuo nodded, affirming Lu Kuan's analysis. "If this is the case, the whereabouts of this king have been exposed, then this Yanzhou will not be safe!"
"Lord, if this is the case, these mobs are simply too deceitful, and the old slave thinks that we should cross the river now and exterminate these mobs." Gonggong Feng said with this opening.
"Gonggong Feng, our numbers are already small, and confronting the mob head-on is tantamount to a dead end!" Lin Feng shook his head.
"Didn't Ling Yun bring some cannonball making materials from Lord Lu yesterday? We can make some shells, and with this weapon, I think the mob will be beaten. Zhang Chujiu walked over and said.
"Are you an idiot?" Lin Feng's face turned cold. "Lingyun is uncertain about the life and death of the bombing, and he also makes cannonballs, do you make them? And look outside......"
Lin Feng pointed to the small courtyard outside. "The mob may have this kind of cannonball, and the cannonball we make is probably not as powerful as one-tenth of this. If you make a good shell, you will also be sent to death. ”
……
Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, Lu Kuan's face is sometimes happy, sometimes gloomy, and wonderful.
He has already determined that this attack on the small courtyard has nothing to do with the imperial court. Therefore, he really hoped that Zhao Shuo would be able to leave Yanzhou immediately now.
As long as he is out of the boundary of Yanzhou, whether he is killed by the bombing or attacked or killed, it has nothing to do with him, the governor of Yanzhou.
"Shut up!" Zhao Shuo was observing Lu Kuan's reaction for a while, and now he felt that the time had come. "We have exposed our identities, even if we don't care about our personal safety, we have to think about it for the people of Yanzhou. The attack was in the residence, what if the next time it appeared on the street, in the government office, or somewhere else? ”
"Lord Wang, it's not that the last general is too talkative, even if we are not afraid of death and don't want to affect the people of Yanzhou, but we have to go?" Lin Feng said with a sad face.
Zhao Shuo smiled secretly, and finally said the point. "Isn't it just a matter of food and grass? We sent men back to Lin'an at once to get the money, and then bought grain and grass and brought it over, and as soon as the grain and grass arrived, we left immediately. ”
Lu Kuan, who was originally relieved, became nervous again at this moment. He sent people back to Lin'an to fetch the money, and to buy grain and grass, and to bring it over. Such an immediate departure, back and forth, plus escort grain and grass, it will take more than half a month to say the least.
In half a month, no one can say how much will happen? Grain and grass, food and grass for six or seven hundred people? Lu Kuan thought about it in his heart.
