Chapter 0338. Terraces, was knocked to the door
"Labor is the most glorious!"
The cool breeze swept by, leading his wife and children to climb the mountain, looking at the beautiful scenery under the mountain, Li Jie couldn't help but be open-minded, and lyrically taught his daughter Li Xi, who was still babbling and playing with her little hands in Wu Meiniang's arms. {This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]
"Chenxi, listen to my father's words, in the future, I will be a hard-working person like my father, and I will also develop so many fields for the benefit of the people, okay?"
is not yet a year old, where can Chenxi understand, but seeing Li Jie finally flowing out two mustaches dangling in front of him, the little girl still giggled and stretched out her little hand to grab it, Wu Meiniang, who watched the warm scene, couldn't help laughing, her plain black long sleeves covered her mouth, but Wang Wei behind her almost fell off the ridge with her head.
Indeed, on the continuous mountains, according to Li Jie's planning, terraced fields have been developed, on the continuous mountains, rammed earth mixed with stones to form a step after step, on the top of the mountain, in the reservoir formed by the mountain spring, the trickle of water is filled with one step after another, looking down from the sky, like a mirror that is colorful into one piece after another, it is dreamy and charming.
The problem is, Lord Min Wang, you haven't dug down except for moving your mouth as if you were a shovel, especially, if you don't open your mouth, we can still be a little tired, you have a golden mouth and jade teeth, you are dying, looking at the fruits of blood and sweat labor under the mountain, Wang Wei wants to vomit blood.
The jungle is all over the mountains, Wang Wei's original plan is to directly burn the wasteland, saving time and effort, but His Royal Highness the King of Min has come down to be thrifty, and he has to dig up the trees on the mountain to burn charcoal, and there can be no waste.
This is going to be fatal, a small valley a few hundred meters high, and more than 30,000 idle laborers, old and young, went into battle with their sleeves together, and worked hard for more than ten days, even Wang Wei, the commander, almost collapsed with him, and only then did he get the scene in front of him.
"Wowha, it seems that this king's design is definitely the best in the world, Wang Wei, has the next terraced location been chosen, and will continue to start work tomorrow!"
After teasing Xiao Chenxi for a long time, Li Jie laughed triumphantly, and after a word, Wang Wei almost didn't fall off the mountain.
"Lord, this kind of labor intensity, you must take a break for a few days, otherwise, the minister is afraid that those people will rebel." Wailing, Wang Wei hurriedly gave up his hand and admonished, Wu Meiniang on the side was also angry and funny, and said coquettishly: "Yes, Langjun, one piece and one relaxation is the way to employ people, and you can't force the people too hard." ”
Seeing that Li Jie covered his forehead depressedly, his plan to open Zhang a few days ago was refuted by several auxiliary ministers, which was hit again, and the deflated appearance made Wu Meiniang shake her head helplessly again.
"It's not impossible for Lang Jun to start work, first allow the people to rest, and then spread the news, the first to start the construction will divide the field first, and get close to the water source first, I believe that there will be people who are willing to contribute to Lang Jun again."
This is to change from passive to active, Li Jie, who couldn't help but listen to this idea, lit up his eyes, and laughed arrogantly at the sky with his head held high triumphantly: "Wowhaha, it's really worthy of my wife, just pay more attention, Wang Wei, act according to the plan, and prepare to continue digging trees." ”
"Still digging?" With a wail, Wang's small white face shook and wanted to cry.
However, in this relaxed period, under the terraced mountains, four or five figures were desperately running towards the mountain with official robes, seeing Hu Cao Laiji's anxious appearance, Li Jie's heart tightened, and he hurriedly greeted him, and rushed to Li Jie in a panic, before he had time to take a breath, Laiji hurriedly threw his hands and clenched his fists and said: "Your Highness, the big thing is not good." ”
"The people of Mangdangshan attacked people's settlements outside the city, killing and injuring a lot, and now many people are terrified."
"What?" As soon as Li Jie mentioned this, the green tendons burst into evil fire, and his plan to open Zhang was shelved because Lao Yang Yi thought that he couldn't stimulate these barbarians too much and didn't want to easily provoke trouble, otherwise how many people would not be enough to arrange in the vast land near the Zhangjiang River? He didn't do anything to anyone else, so much so that people came to the door.
"Lead the way, go alone."
Angry, Li Jie was about to go down the mountain with Laiji, but as soon as he took two steps, he stopped in a depressed manner, turned his head with shame and sighed: "Mei Niang, I said that I finally took you and Chenxi out, but the result was ......."
"Business matters, Lang Jun, I understand." The soft little hand covered Li Jie's mouth, and Wu Meiniang nodded at him. With a flash of gratitude in his eyes, Li Jie finally looked at the two of them, turned his head and strode towards the bottom of the mountain.
"Alas, according to the temper of the prince, it is estimated that there will be another war now." Behind him, Wang Wei couldn't help but sigh helplessly, not wanting Wu Meiniang to suddenly smile and overdo it: "Wang joined the army, now is a good opportunity to set fire to the wasteland, why don't you go quickly?" ”
"Oops!" Suddenly realized, and patted his head suddenly, Wang Wei also arched his hand excitedly at Wu Meiniang and said, "The ministers retreat." ”
Seeing that Wang Wei also jumped down the mountain in three steps and two steps, and fell into the mud pond and became a mud monkey without standing firmly, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "It's really worthy of being a monarch and a minister, it's all obsessive-compulsive disorder." ”
"Dawn, look, is this place created by Daddy beautiful? Chenxi, you also have to grow up quickly, and you have to grow into a great beauty like here! ”、
Wu Meiniang was thinking about it, Leng Buding's little hand full of mud pinched Chenxi's little face, looking at Xiao Man'er and Da Yu'er, who jumped over from the top of the mountain and played with mud, Wu Meiniang was finally completely helpless......
At the foot of the mountain, the outermost extension of Quanzhou Mansion, compared with the tranquility of the terraced fields in the mountain, it is indeed a bleak and wailing scene, the more than 20 villagers killed in the attack have all been covered by white cloth sheets at this time, and the white cloth is stained with blood, relatives are crying around the corpse, and an official in a red robe is waving his big sleeves and constantly shouting.
"Okay, okay, these rice and copper coins are for your village's bereavement, don't cry anymore, the dead are gone, it's useless to cry, just pay attention in the future and don't run to the forbidden area of those mountain people."
One or two hundred onlookers couldn't help but sigh silently, but none of them came forward to comfort them, and the outermost people were all Fujian natives, and the hermits who were driven over, they saw a lot of this kind of thing, and they only blamed these families for being too anxious, and they ran to the mountains to dig trees and make fields in a daze.
In a sigh of sighing, a burst of hurried horses' hooves came, there are few horses in the south, and only the nobleman's family has horses in Fujian, listening to the sound of horses' hooves, a large circle of villagers can't help but look at the lively and turn around, but they shivered coldly, and they retreated to the side and bowed their heads.
A large number of heavily armed heavy cavalry stepped on the road and trampled on the sky-high smoke and dust, wearing a black wallet, Li Jie was angry and rushed to the forefront of the team, the cavalry stopped at the edge of the village in a circle, and directly dropped the second dog that snorted, Li Jie was angry and strode into the village, and the red-robed official Putian made Zheng Rong greet him in a panic, and bowed down with a big salute.
"See King Min."
"Don't talk nonsense, what's the situation, has the murderer been caught?" Looking at the trembling and frightened villagers, Li Jie asked anxiously, but Zheng Rong was stunned.
"Catch, catch the murderer?"
"Nonsense, killing people pays for their lives, debts are repaid, and if you kill someone, you don't deduct it, kill it for nothing?" With a fire in his belly, Li Jie jumped to his feet and shouted loudly, and was sprayed with saliva, Zheng Rong wiped his chubby face with resentment, and replied helplessly: "Lord Wang, do you know that those mountain barbarians killed people, and they were really killed in vain." ”
"What?" It will be Li Jie's turn to be stunned, arching his hands, but Zheng Rong replied seriously: "Your Highness, these mountain barbarians are not easy to mess with, they are brave and brave one by one, and they are not afraid of death, and once they organize a large army to crusade, the mountain barbarians will retreat back into the mountains, and every time the army is attacked by these people in the mountains, there are always heavy casualties, especially because they also believe in the protection of evil gods, and can use demon methods. ”
"Killing barbarians can't be said to happen every day, there are seven or eight times a year, so the assassins of several major families have set a rule, as long as these barbarians don't attack the county seat in groups, they will go with them."
Listening to Zheng Rong's explanation, many of the surrounding Fujian indigenous Han people also nodded helplessly with a sigh, and several old people of the clan still stepped forward with the courage to persuade carefully: "Yes, Lord Min Wang, these barbarians can use demon methods, we still can't afford to provoke them, if the prince is merciful, he will be exempted from renting these families for a few years." ”
Syllable~
Whipping the ground suddenly, several old men staggered back, their faces were gloomy, Li Jie lowered his head and hummed gloomily: "It's not your family who died, it's light." ”
"King Min, don't be impulsive!" Panicked, Zheng Rong hurriedly bowed to the front again, and said in a wailing voice: "Once the battle starts, there will be countless casualties!" ”
"Kill your family alone, can you try to talk to the lonely king so lightly?" With red eyes, Li Jie's forehead slammed against Zheng Rong's forehead, listening to his roar, Zheng Rong, who took two steps back, showed a helpless wry smile.
"Back to His Royal Highness, the minister's sister just let the mountain barbarians rob what sacrifice was brutally killed, at that time, the minister was also furious, eager to raise the sword and fight with these barbarians to the end, and he also hated those compromised clan elders, but ......"
"When I became a minister, I knew that thousands of people in the whole clan were pointing to the minister's life, and there were thousands of people in Putian, and this war could not be easily started!"
Listening to Zheng Rong's helplessness, and then looking at the numbness and suffering of the surrounding villagers, even the killed families were insensitive and insensitive, just crying, seeing such a scene, Li Jie himself couldn't help but take a deep breath, turned around and got on the horse.
"Thank you King Min for your understanding!" In the back, Zheng Rong bowed and shouted loudly, but he didn't want Li Jie to raise his horsewhip, and he also ordered sharply: "Pass the order, gather the army, and enter the mountain bandits!" ”
"It's because of your cowardice that you're alone!" Reined in the horse and circled in front of the helpless Zheng Rong, Li Jie said viciously, and then slammed the horsewhip, leading the team to gallop out again, blinded by the ashes, and when Zheng Rong pounced to recover his sight, the cavalry had already run away.
Glancing at each other with a few clan elders, Zheng Rong and a large group of people all looked at each other.
