Chapter 15: The Fall of the Horse (3)
At the gate of the north city, more than a dozen big men watched Li Hao go out of the city, glanced at each other and followed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two arresters who escorted Li Hao walked in fear, for fear that the big men would burst out and kill people, if Li Hao died, they would definitely not be able to escape the relationship.
finally survived for two days, and the two catchers pressed Li Hao for a hundred miles, and the big men left.
Thinking about it, they didn't have time to really go to the three thousand miles, as long as they confirmed that Li Hao was really exiled.
Just as the two catchers were secretly cheering for the departure of the big men, two sacks were placed on them, and they lost consciousness.
Li Hao, who was walking in front, heard the sound, swallowed his saliva in fear, and slowly turned his head, but saw a face that he couldn't have imagined.
"Zhao Gu, it's you!"
"That's right, it's me."
Zhao Gu stepped forward and looked at Li Hao like a cat looking at a mouse.
"You arranged all of this? Just because I sent someone to assassinate you? Li Hao seemed to understand something and asked.
"Isn't that enough?" Zhao Gu asked rhetorically.
Li Hao lowered his head in frustration: "Enough, enough, enough." ”
"You seem to be unwilling?" Zhao Gu stared at Li Hao and asked.
"No, I am very willing to kill for my life." A hint of fear flashed in Li Hao's eyes, and his head shook like a rattle.
"Li Hao, to be honest, you are not this kind of character, you should be the kind of person who is flamboyant and confident, looking down on all living beings in the world." Zhao Gu smiled playfully.
At this time, the two catchers had been moved aside by Ergouzi and Hao Baibai, and the two glanced at each other, walked in front of Li Hao, and surrounded him.
"What the hell do you want?" Li Hao asked with a bitter face.
"Tell me what you're behind it." Zhao Gu said.
"What's behind it? I do not know. Li Hao tried to quibble, but he didn't know how bad his acting skills were.
Not to mention Zhao Gu, even Ergouzi knew that he was lying.
I really don't know how this kind of person can get mixed with the official position of the third grade, doesn't it mean that officials are all natural actors?
Zhao Gu said in his heart, "There is no behind-the-scenes command? Then you have nothing to do with the Kaifeng Mansion and the rest of your life, and you will personally deal with me as a small Liaodi Hanmin? Don't you look down on poor people like us the most? Why so much trouble? ”
"I do, can you handle it? Let me tell you, the court has already sentenced me, and if you dare to kill me, you will be committing a crime, and the court will not let you go. Li Hao said in a fierce voice.
Zhao Gu still looked calm and said, "Then let me guess." That young city defense general named Cao Wei is the small prince of the Lu State Mansion, right? That day, in the reeds, you actually clashed with him in order to kill me, which shows that the person behind you is not afraid of Lu Guogong, right? ”
Li Hao was silent, but his face was already in cold sweat.
Zhao Gu then said quickly: "Cao Bin, the Duke of Lu, is one of the founding marshals, who has fought with Taizu and His Majesty in the north and south, and has made great achievements, and Taizu and His Majesty today rely on him very much, and he can be described as an important minister. There are less than ten people in the Great Song Dynasty who can not be afraid of his tiger might, right? ”
"There are few of those contemporaries who are alive, and those who are still alive will not oppose him."
"There are only three or four people among the civil officials who can wrestle with Lu Guogong, so Master Li, tell me, who is that person?"
This series of assertions that seemed to be asking questions and were actually completely affirmative directly destroyed the last trace of Li Hao's contempt for Zhao Gu, and his head hung lower, but he just refused to tell the truth.
There is indeed someone behind him, this is something that many people can guess, but who is behind him is a high-level secret, he is still holding luck in his heart at this time, hoping that Zhao Gu will not be able to guess that person.
After seeing Zhao Gu, he had already figured out Zhao Gu's method of dealing with him, that is, to mobilize the people to stink his official reputation, in order to attract the attention of the imperial court, and had to deal with him.
I have to say that this method is very clever, and how can an official not care about reputation.
Li Hao didn't know if Zhao Gu would also deal with him if he knew who that person was, if he really dared, wouldn't he have betrayed that person?
At that time, with that person's mind, will his family still have a good life?
He couldn't figure out how in just a few days, the young man who looked immature at the beginning, and the young man who spoke endlessly in the face of his questions, suddenly became so wise?
Li Hao didn't dare to bet, so he chose to be silent.
Seeing Li Hao's reaction, Zhao Gu was neither happy nor sad, and did not ask again, but waved his hand.
Ergouzi and Hao Bai quickly stepped forward and pulled him into the dense forest.
Zhao Gu didn't want to know the mastermind behind the scenes, but he saw the will to die in Li Hao's eyes, and knew that it was useless to ask again, so he decisively chose to do it.
After a while, Ergouzi and Hao Bai walked out.
Ergouzi said: "Solved." ”
Zhao Gu nodded and looked at the two catchers: "Just put them here, there won't be a problem, right?" ”
Ergouzi smiled: "It's okay, my stick didn't use much force, they will wake up in an hour." ”
Zhao Gu was relieved, and after a day's journey, the three of them returned to Kaifeng City.
As soon as they returned to the small courtyard, Ergouzi and Hao Bai immediately danced with their eyebrows and talked to Li Indifferently about the scene of Zhao Gu questioning Li Hao, and Li Insanran was very excited to listen to it. He belongs to the kind of resourceful person, and this kind of story is what he likes to hear the most.
The four of them laughed a little, and after eating dinner and washing up, they all slept together in the big bunk in the small courtyard.
With his hands on his head, the color of wisdom in Li Danran's eyes flowed, and he said, "Brother Zhao, I don't know if you have noticed that the weather this year is exceptionally cold." ”
Zhao Gu nodded: "I found out when I was in Liao State before, and King Chai Jun of Yunnan also sent Lei Xiang to warn the imperial court, so it can be seen that there are not a few people who have discovered this." ”
"yes." Li pondered indifferently for a moment and said, "Brother Zhao, I don't know if you are interested in setting up a trading house, I think this upcoming snow disaster will be our opportunity." ”
Zhao Gu seriously thought about Li Danran's suggestion, but he didn't mean to do it, and said: "If you have the heart, do it, I'm lazy and used to it, and I don't like that kind of life full of chores." ”
Ergouzi interjected: "But what can we do? Is it a stockpile? ”
Hao blank said: "Cousin, what you said is what those profiteers do, every time there was a catastrophe in the past, there was not enough food to eat, and the profiteers deliberately raised the price of rice, regardless of the life and death of the people, we can't do this." ”
"That's true, and we don't have any money." Ergouzi touched his head and smiled honestly.
Zhao Gu smiled: "You don't have to worry about the money, leave it to me to solve." Indifferently, tell us what you think. ”
Li said indifferently: "I think so, let's set up a dart shop, gather a group of righteous players, help those rich businessmen escort, and wait until the snow disaster is together, someone will take the initiative to find us." Because it will be very difficult to deliver materials at that time, and at that time, the outside of Kaifeng City will be full of homeless people, and where there are homeless people, there will be robbers and thieves, and those rich businessmen are greedy for money and spare their lives, so we can take the opportunity to make a profit. ”
Ergouzi and Hao Bai were a little moved, Zhao Gu thought about it, but slowly shook his head: "This method is good, but what if the snow disaster passes?" ”
"Brother Zhao, do you have any good ideas?" Li asked indifferently.
Zhao Gu shook his head: "I don't know much about Kaifeng, that is, I have seen the resumes of some major high-ranking officials before, so I can't give you any advice." But I think your idea is still very good, and it would be nice if you could make a long-term deal. ”
"A long-term deal?" Li calmly fell into deep thought, and after a while, two snoring sounds sounded in the room.
"Brother Zhao, I'll think about it, anyway, the snow disaster will break out for a while." Li smiled indifferently.
"Well, think about it slowly, I'll go get a sum of money tomorrow and give you start-up capital." Zhao Gu responded.
"Thank you."
