"Something that doesn't make a living!"

Luo Zheng scolded angrily and kicked the Xiliang soldier hard.

Xu Chu also ran to the ground and slapped him a few times in the face of Xiliangbing, with a face of hatred that iron could not be made of steel.

Luo Zheng shouted: "What news have you heard, tell me quickly!" ”

The Xiliang soldiers patted their armor in a wolf manner, didn't dare to talk nonsense, and hurriedly said: "The villain listened to the people in the Zhuangzi that in recent days, someone has spread news nearby, saying that the Xihai Zhuqiang tribes have sent troops to attack Jincheng......"

"Huh?"

Luo Zheng's eyes froze, and the Xiliang soldiers were startled, and hurriedly stopped.

"Go on!"

Luo Zheng had a gloomy face and shouted loudly.

Elfang was beating wildly, and her heart was secretly broken.

Unexpectedly, this news was still heard by Xiliang Bing, and now there is trouble.

Naxi Liangbing said worriedly: "The villain listened to the people in the Zhuangzi say that the people who spread the news nearby said that the Qiang soldiers had been defeated by General Zhao Yun, and it seemed that they had killed a Qiang hero." ”

Luo Zheng asked in a deep voice, "Who spread this news?" ”

Naxi Liangbing hurriedly shook his head and said, "This villain doesn't know." ”

Xu Chu hurriedly said: "Lord, I don't know if this news is true or false?" ”

Luo Zheng didn't say anything with a calm face, thought for a moment, and then turned his head and glanced at Elfang next to him, who looked nervous, and asked with a dark smile, "I wonder if Mr. Elk heard this news on the way?" ”

Elfang sweated on his forehead, and said stubbornly: "Down, I didn't hear it below." ”

Luo Zheng's compelling eyes stared at Elfang until his hands and feet were sore. When he was about to collapse to the ground, he withdrew his gaze. With a certain number in his heart, he said with a smile: "It's best if you don't hear it." But. If you let General Ben know that the foot deceives the general, hehehe, General Ben will definitely let the foot know what life and death are! ”

"This ......"

Elk Fang's heart was broken, and he sat on the ground.

Luo Zheng asked again, "I really haven't heard any news here?" ”

"No, no ......"

Elfang shook her head first, then reacted, and quickly nodded again, cold sweat trickled down her forehead. He hissed with a blank face: "I heard it, I heard the news below, please spare the general's life, the general will spare his life!" ”

Luo Zheng sneered and shouted, "Come on, tie this guy to General Ben." ”

"Yes."

The two soldiers immediately rushed forward and roughly pressed Elfang to the ground, tying her firmly.

"The general spares his life, wow......"

Before Elfang could ask another question, one of his own soldiers immediately stuffed his mouth with a rag.

"My lord. This ......"

Xu Chu scratched his head, a little incomprehensible.

Luo Zheng glanced at Elfang who was escorted down, and sneered: "It's true that I don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin, the matter is obvious." Even the local squire knew that most of the news would not be false, and most of it was because Wen Ruo was afraid that General Ben would be worried. After repelling the Qiang soldiers, he sent people to sneak into the Central Plains. Spread the word everywhere so that General Ben would know. It is really hateful that this guy dares to deceive. ”

Xu Chu suddenly admired and said: "Mr. Xun Yu is really smart, he can come up with this method to tell the lord the news." ”

Luo Zheng said angrily: "You think everyone is like you, and everything is just a brain." ”

"Hey, hey!"

Xu Chu laughed a few times, scratched his head, and didn't care.

Luo Zheng paced back and forth a few steps, and said in a deep voice: "Now that the Xihai Zhuqiang has been repulsed and the situation in Jincheng is stable, there is no need to rush back. The Xuzhou elk family is very rich, and there are no less than 100,000 catties of fine iron, so why do you have to go there. ”

Xu Chu said excitedly: "Lord, if 100,000 catties of refined iron are made into weapons and armor, it is enough to equip 10,000 troops." ”

Luo Zheng nodded and said: "Food is still second, you can grab it anywhere, only fine iron is very scarce, even if General Ben spent a lot of money, he couldn't buy much, so that more than half of the army under his command can't even equip standard weapons." Now that he has caught the fat sheep of Elfang, if he doesn't let out some blood, wouldn't he have come to the Central Plains for nothing. ”

Xu Chu said: "The lord wants to go to Xuzhou? ”

Luo Zheng said "um" and said: "It is not less than a thousand miles to go to Qu County, but you and I travel lightly, even if we hike for a day, we can walk more than 100 miles, and we can reach Qu County in ten days at most. ”

Xu Chu waved his arm vigorously, and said excitedly: "If the lord is not in good shape, he will be able to carry it on his back in the future, even if he is carrying the lord on his back, he can run two hundred miles in one day, and he will be able to reach Qu County in five or six days." ”

Luo Zheng glared at the evil man angrily, and said, "Although General Ben's body is not as good as you, he is not that bad, right?" Even ordinary soldiers can travel two hundred miles a day, and this general will not be able to do anything? ”

"Hey, hey!"

Xu Chu laughed a few times and hurriedly stepped aside.

Luo Zheng immediately opened the vegetable garden and drove all the 1,000 Xiliang soldiers in, along with Elfang and 300 generals, dozens of carts were also stuffed in, only Luo Zheng and Xu Chu threw off their steps and rushed east in the snow.

Qu County, Elk Province.

The housekeeper hurriedly entered the study and saluted the elk behind the case: "Master! ”

Lu Zhu didn't raise his head and said: "Second brother, there is news, when can I rush back to Qu County?" ”

The housekeeper replied respectfully: "Back to the master, five days ago, the second master sent someone to report that Xingyang had passed, and he should be able to rush back to Qu County by the end of the month, and now he should have arrived in Chenliu." However, a few days ago, there was a heavy snowfall in the Central Plains, and the road was blocked. ”

Mi Zhu frowned, waved his hand, and the housekeeper immediately quietly retreated.

The study was quiet again, and a needle drop could be heard for a while.

Elk Zhu sighed softly, this damn weather, what a heavy snowfall.

It's really not beautiful, I hope the second brother can rush back to Qu County at the end of the month, but nothing will happen.

knew that this was the case, so he didn't let the second brother go to Guanzhong in the first place.

The Elk family has a huge amount of money, and it is not bad for that money.

Although the business path in Guanzhong is important, there is no need to let the second brother take the risk himself.

When I come back from this trip, I will leave it to my subordinates. I can't let the second brother run to Guanzhong anymore.

Lu Zhu shook his head and continued to work on the backlog of paperwork.

This year's weather has been exceptionally cold. Not only did it snow heavily in the Central Plains, but it also snowed heavily in Koto, which rarely snowed.

Encountered such bad weather. The princes also stopped, and could no longer move their troops.

Even Yuan Shu, who was most concerned about the life and death of the people and was eager to expand abroad, stopped his troops and waited for the winter to pass, and could no longer continue to use troops abroad, which finally gave the people of Yuzhou and Jianghuai a chance to breathe.

However, even so, the life of the people in Yuzhou and Jianghuai is by no means easy.

Thousands of homeless people have been unable to cope with hunger and cold, and countless others have frozen to death in the wilderness.

No matter how boiling the people's grievances are, they are consciously overwhelmed. It couldn't reach Yuan Shu's ears at all.

After five days of heavy snowfall, the weather finally cleared.

Early in the morning, a large group of people gathered at the west gate of Qu County, and they were queuing up to enter the city.

Suddenly, the crowd waiting to enter the city suddenly became agitated.

"The elk's convoy is here."

A squire glanced at it, and immediately endured who it was, and immediately stepped aside.

The squires had to give way, not to mention the grass-headed people, and they immediately flashed from the middle to the sides.

And he saw three hundred horizontal eyebrows and angry eyes. The imposing family general escorted dozens of carts and rushed straight over, and the young man Sven who was running at the front on horseback was not the second master of the Elk family, who else was Elfang, but who were the two people who were closely accompanying him on the left and right, although they were wearing the clothes of the family. But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a housekeeper, it's really weird.

Especially the man on the right, who is also too majestic. The arms are thicker than a person's thighs.

Could it be the general that the second master of the elk family went out to recruit this time?

Some people were puzzled, but they didn't dare to step forward to stop the convoy and ask questions.

The elk family in the camouflage of three hundred Xiliang soldiers will escort the convoy. Running all the way to the city gate, the city gate guards saw the battle. also changed his face and quickly dodged, and he didn't even dare to stop it.

Didn't you see the second elk's blue face, very unhappy? Who would dare to go up and touch the mold.

Luo Zheng rode an inferior horse, pretending to be a family member to accompany Elfang on the right side, and when he saw this kind of momentum, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

This elk family is not rotten in Qu County, and it has a bit of the taste of the soil emperor.

A landlord is strong, and it is indeed remarkable to be able to mix with this.

The chariots and horses stopped without stopping, rushed into the city gate, and went straight to the Elk Mansion.

The squires and common people followed behind, trying to take the opportunity to rush into the city gate, but they were stopped by the sharp-eyed city gate guards, who beat them violently, and then dragged them aside like dead dogs and threw them into the snow.

The difference in treatment between the two phases is so large that it is simply unreasonable.

"Damn fat pig, do you think you're the second master of the elk family?"

Several city gate guards beat and cursed until the squire could not stand up, then he spat and clapped his hands and left.

Hatred of the rich is originally a common mentality, these city gate guards are all from ordinary people, and they finally have the opportunity to beat up these landlords who are unkind to the rich, and they don't seize the opportunity.

Of course, the beaten squire was just a small landowner in the countryside and basically had little energy.

Otherwise, if they have a little status, how dare these city gate guards do it.

Maybe people will move their mouths, and they won't have to wait until tomorrow, and these city gate guards will have to go to prison.

The sun is shining brightly after the snow.

In the inner courtyard of the Elk Mansion, in a very elegant and elegant room.

"Good news, Miss."

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid hurried into the wing room and shouted to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who was piercing rust: "The slave maid just heard the news in the front yard that the second master has returned from Guanzhong and has brought a lot of goods. ”

"Really?"

The girl raised her head in surprise, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler out of the valley.

"Really, how dare the little maid deceive Miss."

The maid nodded again and again, eager to pick up the young lady and run out.

"Let's go, go see the second brother!"

The young master threw down the work in his hand, got up and ran out.

The maid hurriedly followed and ran out. (To be continued......) R1292
