Qi Mu returned to the mansion, came directly to the study, sat on the chair with a gloomy face, closed his eyes and meditated for a long time, and said slowly: "Tell me to go down and block the post road!" ”

Fan Lei, who had been standing beside him, was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "Blocking the post road? Big brother, ninety percent of our business is pointing at it, blocking the post road, this ...... Isn't this a thousand kills and eight hundred? ”

Qi Muyin said with a smile: "Eight hundred self-damage, isn't there two hundred left?" The mad dog is like a plaster that can't be torn off or broken off, and only this method can get rid of him, otherwise he will continue to bite. As long as he falls, Huxian County will still be my world, and when the time comes, we will reopen the post road and restore the glory is only a matter of time! ”

Qi Mu's cheeks were injured, his words were said very slowly, and his voice was a little vague, but his meaning was expressed very clearly, Fan Lei thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "It's just like this, I'll just give the order!" Qi Mu nodded, closed his eyes and continued to close his eyes to recuperate, while Fan Lei hurriedly walked out.

There are two main passages in Guizhou to the outside world, one runs through the north and south, and the other runs through the east and west, all of which were built by Mrs. Xiangxiang after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Xiangxiang is a Yi person, Yi name Shezi, was originally the daughter of a big Tusi of the Yi nationality in southern Sichuan, and married Longzan, the big Tusi of the Yi nationality in Guizhou at the age of fourteen. Emerald.

A few years later, after Ai Cui's death, due to the young age of her son, she was regent by Madame Xiangxiang. At that time, when Zhu Yuanzhang won the world, Mrs. Xiangxiang judged the situation, took refuge in the Ming Dynasty, cooperated with the Ming army to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, and paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty, donated grain, and channel, and made great contributions to the Ming army's occupation of Guizhou and march into Yunnan.

But her greatest achievement to benefit future generations is to preside over the construction of two major post roads in Guizhou. At that time, Guizhou was barren and grassy. The sheep intestines are sinister, and the snow stacks are in the cloud forest. If it weren't for the identity of Mrs. Xiangxiang, changing a person would not only conquer the natural dangers, but also overcome countless man-made problems, which would be extremely difficult to achieve.

Under the auspices of Mrs. Xiangxiang, the two major post roads in Guizhou were opened. Since then, it has become a large passage in the southwest, and the west and the east and the south must pass through Guizhou, which has also become a traffic artery for the Ming Dynasty to the southern countries. It is inseparable from the smooth implementation of government decrees, military deterrence, and economic prosperity.

Now, if Qi Mu breaks off one of them, it is equivalent to strangling this traffic artery that runs through the north and south, and the consequences can not be described as unstrict. As long as this situation lasts for half a month, the imperial court will be alarmed, and without waiting for the imperial court to be alarmed, the local officials and big toasts in Guizhou will not be able to sit still, and it will naturally be okay to take a small history when the time comes.

Qi Mu is naturally clear about the consequences of this incident, but he has been running post road transportation for many years. If you want to engage in sabotage, the means are endless, and how to create all kinds of right and wrong, but not lead the disaster to yourself, he is familiar with this kind of thing.

The big businessmen who came and went from the south to the north naturally complained that the transmission of the imperial court post road was interrupted, the government decrees were not smooth, and the transit officials were stagnant. A large number of military supplies could not be transported, so naturally Huxian County should be held accountable. Don't talk about a small history at that time, even the seven-rank Zhengyin is afraid that it will also be taken down.

With Qi Mu's order, this section of the post road controlled by him began to change dramatically, and the next day there was news on the post road, and several bandits appeared on the post road in the deep forest, dense cliffs, high and narrow roads, and several caravans transported by the Qi family were all wiped out.

In these places, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the roads are narrow, and the officers and men of the brigade cannot display them at all, and it is useless for a small group of officers and men to go.

Many businessmen who are preparing to go south through Huxian County have temporarily stayed in the county seat to wait and see, but a day's delay in their goods is a great loss, especially those whose goods need to be kept fresh and cannot be delayed for too long, they are even more anxious like ants on a hot pot, and in anger, they naturally want to put pressure on Huazhi County.

At this time, there was news again, because of the heavy rain for several days, there was a section of the post road cliff road suddenly collapsed, repairing this section of the road requires a lot of labor, it takes a long time, and the people in Huxian County are boiling with public resentment when they hear the news.

Although these things seem to have nothing to do with Ye Xiaotian, people who are familiar with Qi Mu's methods and those who are familiar with the festival between the two can easily link these two things together, and they both know: "Uncle Qi is still a color to Ai Dianshi." ”

At this time, not only the passing merchants, imperial court guards, and passing officials put pressure on Huazhi County, but even the gentry and even a large number of people in the county were also very dissatisfied, they were not only dissatisfied with Huazhi County's inaction, but also began to be dissatisfied with Ye Xiaotian. These people were either in business or made a living from transportation, and as soon as the post road was cut off, they were cut off from their livelihood.

Although many of them were usually oppressed by Qi Mu, although they were always exploited by Qi Mu, when Ye Xiaotian stood up to fight with Qi Mu, they also cheered and applauded him, but once it affected their interests, they completely forgot the pain that Qi Mu had inflicted on them.

They only know that they can't earn money and can't eat now because Ye Xiaotian is against Uncle Qi. Of course, this kind of person is not all, but there are many people, and the shape has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and it has begun to become more and more unfavorable to Ye Xiaotian.

Qi Mu listened to the news from his subordinates, and sneered, he had already seen through those poor worms, some idiots who didn't remember to eat or fight! He hoped that soon the history of madness would be betrayed and turned into a loner. By that time......

Qi Mu smiled and pushed open the window, the lead clouds outside the window were thick, and a heavy rain was coming.

Qi Mu suddenly tore open the placket of his robe, revealing a puff of chest hair, and looked up at the sky, as if he was roaring silently.

Inside the prison, Ye Xiaotian and Hua Yunfei sat opposite each other, with a food box in the middle, which contained a few small dishes with wine, and a small jar of wine next to it.

The cell is very quiet, those big men who pick their feet have been released by Ye Xiaotian, the decisive battle is imminent, the purpose of boosting morale has been achieved, why bother to lock up those bastards here and waste food, Huxian's finances are extremely tight.

There were now only three prisoners in the entire prison, in the innermost cell at the very end of the prison. Meng Xiancheng is locked up, and Hua Yunfei is locked up in the outermost room. The cell next door was locked up with Mao Wenzhi.

Mao asked Zhi to be naked, and he didn't know if he was a little exhibitionist. It's just that he had been greeted by Su Xuntian in advance, and he knew that the young man next door who was smiling and chanting was the classic history of the county, so he didn't dare to make a move, so he didn't sit or stand, so he didn't feel uncomfortable.

Ye Xiaotian poured a glass of wine for Hua Yunfei, Hua Yunfei frowned slightly and said, "Big brother, I don't know how to drink." ”

Ye Xiaotian smiled and said, "Try it." You're still young, but you'll grow up someday. How can a man not know the taste of wine? You've done all this kind of thing, and you're still afraid of drinking? ”

Hua Yunfei didn't say anything more, he happily picked up the cup and drank it all, the spicy liquor entered his throat, choking him with coughing and choking tears.

Ye Xiaotian looked at his swollen face. He took a sip of the cup and said leisurely: "This thing, at first, you have to drink it slowly, and when you feel that it tastes like water, it's not too late to take a big sip of it." ”

Hua Yunfei closed his mouth tightly, waiting for the spicy taste to gradually dissipate. But there seemed to be a flame rising from his chest and abdomen, burning his eyes red: "It's not good at all, I don't drink it." ”

Ye Xiaotian smiled: "Okay! Then tell me, why did you kill Qi Mu? ”

Hua Yunfei was silent and didn't speak, but his eyes were getting redder and redder. In the middle of the night, two lines of tears suddenly flowed down.

Ye Xiaotian didn't speak. Instead, he waited patiently, and after waiting for a long time, Hua Yunfei finally began to speak, word by word, he said it very slowly, very lightly, and in detail, talking about that tragic scene, it was like repeating someone else's story.

Ye Xiaotian understood very well how deep hatred he had to have in his heart to make him say it in such a calm and even indifferent tone. When Hua Yunfei finished talking about what happened, Ye Xiaotian said: "Why are you looking for personal revenge? Why didn't you report to the authorities? ”

Hua Yunfei pursed his mouth, and there was a trace of helpless sadness and ridicule in his eyes. Report to the officer? Just those officials in Hu County? Either it is a clay tire wood plastic decoration, or a corrupt official who colludes with Haoqiang, is it useful to sue the official? I'm afraid that the sheep may be more likely to fall into the tiger's mouth.

Ye Xiaotian didn't seem to understand his eyes, and still asked very seriously: "Why didn't you report to the official?" ”

Hua Yunfei frowned, although he was hiding in Tibet these days and rarely had contact with people, he had also heard some things between Ye Xiaotian and Qi Mu, and when he was caught that day, he saw the tense situation between Ye Xiaotian and Qi Mu with his own eyes, didn't Ye Xiaotian understand that Qi Mu had the power to cover the sky in Huxian County?

Hua Yunfei wanted to explain, but before he could speak, Ye Xiaotian had already said, "You want to report to the official!" Report it now! I'll have you taken out and reported to the lobby. You remember, I'm the official! is somewhat aura, and the size is an official historian! ”

Hua Yunfei looked at him in amazement, and after a while, he seemed to understand, his eyes flashed, and he said excitedly: "Big brother,...... Can you really bring him to justice? ”

Ye Xiaotian smiled but didn't answer, got up and walked out, and said as he said: "On the mountain that day, you gave me four fish, and you didn't come to be rude." I'll give you a fish in the coming day. ”

Hua Yunfei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came over, the eldest brother was referring to the severed head meal, and he said angrily: "Okay! On the day when I eat the severed head, I will definitely have a good drink of wine, and I will eat the fish, but what I want most to use for wine is the head of the old thief! ”

Ye Xiaotian walked out, the cell door was locked behind him, and Ye Xiaotian smiled back: "When the time comes, I will give you a golden carp!" ”

"Golden carp?"

Hua Yunfei looked at Ye Xiaotian's back blankly, he didn't understand anymore, how could this big brother always speak unfathomably.

Mao Wenzhi, who had been pretending to sit in the cell next door, like a gorilla, saw that Ye Xiaotian was gone, and he was relieved, he threw himself on the fence and smiled at Hua Yunfei: "I said big brother, why are you so stupid!" Once the golden carp is unhooked, it will shake its head and tail and no longer reply, do you know this? Golden carp, do you know what it means? ”

Poor Hua Yunfei didn't know a single big word, where did he understand the meaning of this sentence, he shook his head in a daze, and asked in wonder, "Made of gold?" Can't eat it? ”

Mao Wenzhi slapped his thigh and said hurriedly: "Oh mom, this is uneducated, it's really terrible!" ”
