The bull's-eyed baby was looking for him angrily, but he didn't expect to see a hanging child's appearance, so he didn't get angry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
If he was really taking a nap or working, the bull's-eyed baby might not have been so angry, and now he finds that he is enjoying life and beauty, and he doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people outside at all.
As he walked, he said, "Yougui is here to urge food." ā
Cui Liang, the prefect of Yangzhou, was born in Jinshi in his early years, and he also suffered a lot, it was not easy to climb to this position, and the life of officialdom made him lose himself, and he went farther and farther on this road of no return.
Cui Liang's ability to observe words and emotions is quite good, seeing that the comer is not good, and the guards did not report it, he knew that something was wrong, and he spoke a lot more kindly.
"This military master, I am dissatisfied with you and said, you are late, there is not a single grain of food in the official warehouse, if you come a few days earlier, there will still be some, you know, Fang Lana kid is now rebelling, he came to Yangzhou a few days ago, and took away all the food left over from the disaster. ā
"How did I hear that Fang La didn't kill Yangzhou at all, but was personally sent by your prefect?"
The bull's-eyed baby is pure nonsense, but Cui Liang's eyes are obviously a little wrong, and he must not have thought of a good countermeasure.
"How is this possible, Fang La is ruthless, presumably you have also received a battle report, and the officials in Hangzhou City have been hunted down and killed by them.
Although it is said that Yangzhou is not within the scope of their attack, sooner or later it will suffer, and he will come to ask for food, so should we not give it to the dead? If we don't give it, we will inevitably die. ā
Cui Liang said it very seriously, but the bull's eye baby didn't believe the nonsense in his mouth at all.
The more flamboyant the person is, the less credible he will be.
"So you gave the food to protect everyone's lives, isn't that so?"
Cui Liang said with a smile: "What the military master said is not bad at all, that's it." ā
Originally, the governor of a state was in a high position, and a small soldier would not have a chance to meet at all, and first of all, the authority of the prefect could never be challenged.
However, the current situation is completely reversed, the prefect is like a child who has made a mistake, he is reprimanded by a small soldier, and he still has a smile on his face to apologize.
The bull's eye baby is very reckless, and she is also in a hurry under the orders of the lord, and she has no choice but to come to the prefect.
Who knew that when he met a watchdog, the dog's eyes looked down on people, and the bull's-eyed baby came in.
The prefect knows that he is at a loss, and he does not act as an official, as long as he cheats these killers out of his voice, the food in the warehouse belongs to him, and there is no benefit to eating these people, he will only kill people everywhere.
The transfer envoy didn't say anything, and he dared to come to ask for food as a small soldier, and he didn't even take him as a prefect in his eyes.
"Do you believe that I screwed off your dog officer's head as a night pot?"
The bull's-eyed baby has a stupid mouth, can't speak, and can only speak with his fists when he encounters unreasonable things.
Cui Liang is so smart, what he is waiting for is to make him angry, he will definitely not dare to kill people, he will not be able to run away from the charge of beating the court officials, and when the time comes, the defense envoy will definitely give himself a head.
After thinking about it, he stretched out his neck and pretended to be pitiful and said, "This head is still worth some money, so you can take it." ā
The bull's eye baby was about to step forward to implement, but was desperately pulled by the soldiers behind him, and when he came, he said to the lord, as long as he didn't make trouble, let them watch the rest.
So as long as this master goes back, their task will be completed.
But the bull's-eyed baby is just a grumpy master, and when he is manic, he doesn't buy anyone's fight, and struggles to rush towards Cui Liang.
They talked here for a long time, and the servants outside had already found helpers, and rushed into the courtyard at the last moment of the thousand troops, and surrounded the bullseye baby and them again.
As soon as Cui Liang saw that the reinforcements had arrived, his task was completed, and he continued to admire his paintings, putting his hands on the woman's body, and he didn't know how to avoid it.
At this moment, a crowd of people came bustling outside the door, led by a young man with a smile on his face, and as soon as he came in, he didn't say anything, and beat these newly found helpers half to death, and fell to the ground wailing arbitrarily, and the fierce soldiers under his command, like no one, didn't even look at the people lying on the ground.
Wu Xi stepped forward, someone had already pulled a chair, and Wu Xi sat on it very comfortably, still with a harmless smile on his face.
"General, I ...... the Lord"
The bull's-eyed baby's stomach full of grievances doesn't know where to start, it's more guilty, the Lord has given him a task, he didn't do a good job, and he annoyed others, and now the Lord appears here, which is a slap in the face.
Wu Xi raised his hand and said: "It's none of your business, I know that you can't do it well, so I let you go through it, and it will be good slowly in the future, now go down and rest, it's embarrassing for you." ā
The bull's-eyed baby sighed and went out, the rest of the things naturally don't need to be dealt with by yourself, and the master will handle everything very well.
"Who are you?"
It seems that this prefect is really big-hearted, and when the army crosses, there must be instructions from above, and he doesn't know who this person sitting in front of him is now, it's really a big joke.
"I'm his boss, and now I'm going to take over from him to get food from you, the army is about to fight, and the transfer envoy hasn't arrived yet, so this matter falls on me.
The war is important, and we can't afford to delay, I hope that you will call out the grain in a responsible attitude towards the Great Song Dynasty, and we only need the marching food allocated by the imperial court, and we don't want any of the rest.
It's yours, you put it in your dead man's storehouse, it's ours, you can't take a single grain.
Listen to me, I'm kind of persuading now, and when I'm in a bad mood for a while, I don't know what I'll do, and I'll laugh at your request to stick your neck out just now. ā
Cui Liang knew that this person was not easy to deal with, and Shen Cao had already said it to him, but the marching food had already been swallowed by them, and now he took it out, as if he was cutting meat in his heart, and he was very unwilling.
"Oh, it's still the same sentence, the food was taken by the thief, and it was fatal. ā
It's really a hard and soft master, and he doesn't take his life seriously.
"Well, since you've lived enough, let me help you on your way, and the food matter will be taken care of by the free man. ā
After speaking, with a wave of his hand, a soldier stepped forward, holding a servant knife, and chopped off Cui Liang's head with a knife in his hand.
Cui Liang didn't expect this young man to come to the real thing, it was too late to regret it, and the moment his head fell, he seemed to see his body still standing upright.
The woman beside him had fainted with fright, Wu Xi ordered someone to carry him into the bedroom, and sent someone to invite Lord Shen Cao, presumably after he saw this scene, he didn't know if he would have the same request as the prefect.
After a while, Lord Tuiguan and Shen Cao arrived at the scene at the same time, and when they saw the prefect's head separated, they were miserable, and the sweat on their heads flowed down instantly.
The body began to shake unconsciously, and when he spoke, his voice trembled a little.
"Lord Samcao, are you in charge of the grain and grass matter?"
Wu Xi said coldly, like a cold-faced judge in a chair.
"No, yes!"
"Speak louder, exactly? ā
"Yes!"
"Very well, so can it be delivered before the army leaves tomorrow morning?"
Shen Cao wiped the cold sweat on his face, hugged his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Lord Metropolitan Eunuch, tonight, everything will be ready to stop, and the army will take it at any time." ā
Wu Xi stood up and said with a smile: "Isn't it over like this a long time ago, you have to see blood before you die, don't move if it's not your own, usually you eat a little, but when the country is in trouble, this kind of thing is not allowed to happen." ā
"The subordinates know it's wrong. ā
"It's good to know that you can change your mistakes, I think your kid is more knowledgeable, Yangzhou prefect is empty, I don't know if you are interested." ā
"Under the rank of subordinates, they are not competent. ā
At this time, the pusher who was standing aside also came out and said: "Yes, his official rank is low and he is not competent, besides, even if he is the new prefect, he needs to be sent by the imperial court, right?"
"Who are you?"
Wu Xi asked.
"In Xiayangzhou, Liu Daqing. ā
"Oh, do you mean you're interested in this prefect?"
"This ......"
"Okay, don't talk about it, this is your business, what do you want, just report it to the imperial court, as long as our grain and grass are neat, even if you break your head for the prefect, it's not my concern. ā
After speaking, he took his subordinates and left, leaving the pusher and Shen Cao to look at each other.
Wu Xi was domineering in this matter, did not give the opponent any respite, and solved the problem of grain and grass at once, waiting for the transfer envoy of the imperial court to prepare the grain and grass, I don't know when it will be.
The matter is settled, then the rest is his business, the officials below the prefect will definitely not say that the prefect was killed for the position of the prefect, they will definitely say that they died in the line of duty, on the one hand, they are good for their own future, and on the other hand, they don't let their colleagues die in vain, right?
Later, the bullseye baby went over to receive the grain and grass, and handed it all over to the follow-up troops of the overseer.
The next day, the army set out as a whole and marched mightily towards Dantu.
"General, if you don't come, I'm going to kill him. ā
At this time, the bull's eye baby said in front of Wu Xi that her way of doing things was the same as that of the general.
"I saw it, that's why I came in. ā
"Are you afraid that I won't be able to do it?"
The bull's-eyed baby asked inexplicably.
"No, I'm afraid that you're going to do it quickly, but the prefect doesn't feel it. ā
"No, there must be another reason. ā
Wu Xi smiled, feeling that the bull's-eyed baby was not useless.
"You're right, I can kill this person, but you can't. ā
"Why?"
When the bull's-eyed baby asked this, Wu Xi didn't have any hope for his IQ.
"Because it's okay for me to kill you, if you kill you, you will pay for your life, even if I can't save you. ā
"Everyone is punished for the bad guys, is it just if you kill it, and if I kill it, it will be evil?"
Wu Xi smiled and stopped talking, the conversation couldn't go on at all, and he didn't know how to continue.
The curtain on the carriage was pulled up again, and the bullseye scratched her head, not knowing where she had said the wrong thing.
