"That's it! Now that the people live and work in peace and contentment, we are raising a rebellion, and it is clear that we want the people to poke at the backbone and scold us? Another helmsman standing beside the old man also said loudly: "Boss Zhu, is that Lord Li instigating you to rebel?" ”

"I thought you were all ambitious people, but it turned out to be just a corner of the way!" At this time, Li Jinlei walked in from outside, looked at everyone lightly and said, "Officers and soldiers, what about the officers and soldiers?" Bullied to the heads of our canal brothers, what righteousness are you still talking about here, you can't even save your own life? ”

"Lord Li, you know a lot, we rough people have understood since we were young that the people don't fight with the officials, and now although those officers and soldiers are assembled in Yuncheng, they don't mean to beat us, why does Lord Li think that our brothers will definitely die?" It was another more prestigious helmsman who spoke

Li Jinlei didn't expect that Ping Suli would have such a strong opposition to Zhu Tao's obedient helmsmen in this kind of thing, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he definitely wouldn't show it, just smiled lightly and said: "The old man didn't say that those officers and soldiers would definitely kill you, but don't forget, your relatives are all in Yuncheng, if the officers and soldiers do something to your relatives at that time, do you also have to sit still?" ”

"Report! There are four people out there asking to see you! Then the herald ran in, pointed outward, and said, "They say they are the prince and the princess!" ”

"They dare to come here! Let me slaughter them! Zhu Tao didn't wait for Li Jinlei to speak, he had already rushed out with a machete in both hands, Liu Yan was also anxious, and hurriedly helped Li Jinlei to follow out.

And those helmsmen looked at each other for a while, how could they not go to see the excitement, and the entire Juyi Hall suddenly fell silent, as if no one had ever appeared here.

"Yue Qianfan!" Zhu Tao knew that it was Qianfan who cut off Li Jinlei's left hand, so he naturally bore the brunt of the attack on Qianfan, and shouted: "Hurry up and come out and fight with me!" ”

"I'm here today to discuss with you how to do business on this canal, and I don't want to fight and kill, what does Brother Zhu think?" Nalan Minhao looked at Zhu Tao with a smile and said politely, "Wouldn't it be better if we have something to say?" Why fight, kill, kill? ”

"Hmph, since you came to Yuncheng, Lu Yuan has died inexplicably, and now the officers and soldiers are gathered here again, do you still want to talk to us? Fool it! Zhu Tao pointed at Qianfan with a knife and snorted coldly: "You hurt the old immortal, leave your left hand, maybe grandpa will consider having a good talk with you." ”

"I just said that sometimes, there is no reason to talk to such unreasonable people, you just think they will be reasonable, I said Zhu Tao, is there anyone here who can have the final say if you kill you?" When Qian Fan heard Zhu Tao's words, he snorted coldly and said, "Since you know that Li Jinlei's hand was left by me, do you think you are more powerful than him?" ”

Qian Fan's words instantly woke up Zhu Tao, who was bent on revenge, indeed, he couldn't even beat Liu Yan, could he beat the old immortal? The old immortal suffered a loss under Yue Qianfan's hands, could he have beaten Yue Qianfan? Thinking of this, Zhu Tao's face was really blue and white, even if he couldn't beat him, he couldn't lose face in front of so many people, but before he could be ruthless, Li Jinlei had already opened his mouth and stopped him: "Zhu Tao, come back!" ”

"We know what a few people want to say when they come here today, but every family in Yuncheng has people who are water bandits, even if you arrest all of us, it's useless, wouldn't it be better to be in peace like before?" Li Jinlei looked at Nalan Minhao and Qianfan on the opposite side and said indifferently.

Of course, Li Jinlei knows that now is not the best time to instigate these people to revolt, in fact, he and Xu Liang have already agreed that tomorrow they will salvage an old turtle underwater, and the turtle shell is engraved with poems by them, as for what poems, it is naturally a poem that says that Xu Liang is the true son of heaven, and then Li Jinlei will send people to sing nursery rhymes in the streets and alleys to build momentum for Xu Liang's accession to the throne, and Xu Liang, who was in the capital at that time, had already controlled Luo Langkong.

But now he has no way to wait, the moment he saw Yue Qianfan, he began to worry about Xu Liang's safety, but the people sent by Zhu Tao never replied, as if they had completely evaporated, which made him more and more uneasy, otherwise he would not have let Zhu Tao deliberately test the tone of these people to see if they supported the uprising, it was obvious that these people did not have such thoughts.

In fact, Li Jinlei also understands very well, even if these people follow him for a long time, they are just ordinary people, you let him imagine that he will be crowned a marquis in the future, it is not as good as the benefits of giving silver now, because they only value the immediate interests, but he has been running around for Xu Liang all his life, if he can't achieve what he wants, then what is the meaning of living for him?

Just when Li Jinlei's mind was turning a thousand times there, Qian Fan waved his hand, and a group of soldiers suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then more than 20 heads were thrown on the deck, and some of them immediately recognized these heads as the water bandits under their hands!

"Yue Qianfan! What do you mean! Li Jinlei thought that they had assassinated so many water bandits behind their backs, and immediately said angrily: "You actually secretly cruelly did it to the water bandit brothers, and now you have to negotiate again, is it possible that you treat us as soft persimmons!" ”

Everyone was also indignant and indignant when they saw the heads of these brothers, and they all angrily reprimanded the imperial court for using such means to deal with them, but Nalan Minhao smiled indifferently and said: "Boss Zhu, you can see clearly who these people are, what did you send them to do, why don't you tell your brothers?" ”

Zhu Tao couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard Nalan Minhao ask him directly, looked over carefully, suddenly grabbed Li Jinlei's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Old immortal!" It's the people we sent to the capital! ”

"What!" When Li Jinlei heard Zhu Tao's words, he immediately turned his head to look at him, glared at him and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"Sure, twenty-three, no less than one, all killed!" Zhu Tao looked at the heads on the ground nervously, looked at Li Jinlei at a loss, and said repeatedly: "They didn't go to the capital at all!" ”

"Didn't make it?" Li Jinlei suddenly felt faint when he heard this, no one went to the capital to deliver the letter, so what about Xu Liang? As if grasping the last glimmer of hope, he raised his eyes to look at Nalan Minhao, and asked sharply, "What about Xu Liang!" Where is he! ”

"Dead, ten thousand arrows pierce the heart." Nalan Minhao said calmly, in fact, he didn't expect that person to be Gonggong Xu.

Nalan Minhao was bored in the palace during the years when Father-in-law Xu accompanied him, so he always felt that Father-in-law Xu was very credible, and never doubted him, but he didn't expect him to be careless, the person who didn't care the most was the one who was the most hidden, Father-in-law Xu's death was not without impact on Nalan Minhao, after learning of his death, Nalan Minhao drank all night of wine, and seemed to be saying his final goodbye to him.

"Dead ...... ...... dead" Li Jinlei heard Nalan Minhao's words, suddenly staggered back a few steps, and after being held by Zhu Tao and Liu Yan, he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then fainted, and the whole person seemed to grow old in an instant, completely losing his vitality.

"Old fairy! Old Immortals! Zhu Tao saw Li Jinlei's appearance, and suddenly felt a little flustered, he was used to asking Li Jinlei about everything, and he was used to Li Jinlei giving him ideas, and now that Li Jinlei has become like this, he suddenly has no backbone, and subconsciously looks at Liu Yan.

"You send the old fairy to rest first, I'm here here!" Liu Yan patted Zhu Tao on the shoulder, nodded at him and said, "Don't worry, there must be no problem!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Tao helped Li Jinlei to retreat slowly, Liu Yan walked in front of Nalan Minhao and Qianfan, suddenly measured his body, and waved his hand: "Two of you, let's talk inside!" ”

"Those who know the times are Junjie, you are all people who have been running on the water for many years, and I will not beat around the bush, today I will talk about your golden basin washing your hands." After entering the Juyi Hall, Liu Yan naturally sat on the top, while Nalan Minhao and his party sat in the guest seat, and those helmsmen were crowded opposite them, wanting to know how Nalan Minhao and they planned to place them.

"We have been making money every day in the official salt over the years, if we don't have these businesses in the future, how can we feed the family?" One of them didn't wait for Liu Yan to speak, and then said in a rough voice: "Could it be that in the future, the government will send us silver money every day?" ”

"There is an old saying in the rivers and lakes, it is called if you take the money and you don't have your life to spend, if the government dares to give it, it will kill you at night, do you dare?" Qian Fan was very displeased when he heard that man speak, and snorted coldly and said: "People can't be too greedy, you have made a lot of money on official salt over the years, and it is difficult to say that you can spend it in three lifetimes, so you have to leave a way for the people to live, right?" ”

"Old man speaks, what are you talking about as a woman!" The man was dumbfounded by Qian Fan, and suddenly said angrily: "When grandpa was messing around on this water, you were still in your mother's belly......"

"Smack!" Before the man finished speaking, he had already been slapped six times in a row, and his face was swollen like a pig's head, and everyone only felt that there was a flower in front of them, Qianfan was already sitting in his place, and randomly put Po Jun on the table and said in a deep voice: "I advise you to keep your mouth clean when you speak, there is no one in the entire Huangyuan Kingdom who dares to talk to me Yue Qianfan like this, because they were all killed by me." If it weren't for the face of your Liu Dangjia today, your head would have landed! The temper of the princess in this world has always been bad, so you ask for more blessings! ”

Everyone shuddered when they heard Qianfan's words, and then they remembered that the woman sitting in front of them was not an ordinary woman, among the ten thousand people, she single-handedly took the head of the enemy leader, how many of them could do it? The big man who had just been beaten didn't dare to say a word, and retreated to the back in a gloomy manner.

"Don't be so nervous, although my concubine has a bad temper, she is very reasonable!" Nalan Minhao looked at everyone with a smile, his eyes fell on Liu Yan and said, "I want to know what Liu Dangjia thinks?" ”

"Although we look beautiful on the water, we get together less with our relatives and leave more, and there are many dangers on the canal, every time we go into the water, there may be no return, if there is really a way out, we are naturally willing to wash our hands and not dry it!" After Liu Yan finished speaking, he looked at the old man who initially opposed Zhu Tao's rebellion, and saw that he nodded to himself approvingly before continuing: "It's just that there have been hundreds of thousands of brothers over the years, and Liu just wants to know how the imperial court wants to settle our brothers?" ”
