"I ordered all counties to reduce and reduce commercial taxes in order to encourage merchants from all over the country to enter Yuzhou to bring supplies to treat the people displaced by the war; You are ordered to give alms in order to appease the people so that they may survive in the coming year. Zhao Hanzhang's eyes were heavy, "And you, as the county guard of a country, neither obey the decree nor take measures to benefit the people, like that Gao Cheng, you hold the authority but do nothing." ”

"If you can do it but not do it, it is for the great evil, you two staff members can't persuade you to fulfill the responsibility of being an official, blindly thinking about prevaricating the official, you should also be killed!" Zhao Hanzhang said directly: "You should all be killed!" ”

Pei He: "So the envoy is here to take my life?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "No, I wanted to see you before I came, and discuss the major affairs of Yuzhou with you, but after I came, I knew that you were not enough to plan." ”

"But if I want to kill you, I'm still hesitating." Zhao Hanzhang stared at him and said: "It's easy to kill you, but after killing you, how will you deal with your family, the Pei family, and many officials who are as lazy as you?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked up to the sky and sighed: "Could it be that I, Zhao Hanzhang, want to be a tyrant who has been stinking for thousands of years?" ”

Pei He's face changed several times, he was not a fool, and he understood what Zhao Hanzhang meant.

She doesn't want to be a tyrant who kills the lower officials, and he doesn't want to be killed, but as long as he is in this position, she will definitely kill him!

Pei He got up and arched his hand: "Envoy, the subordinate official is old, and his health is not good, so it is inevitable that he will not have enough energy, and he is no longer qualified for the post of the county guard of Nanyang State, so he specially resigned." ”

Zhao Hanzhang bowed his head and said: "Okay, I will write to Your Majesty and send someone to take over Nanyang Kingdom." ”

She got up, grabbed his saluting hand, stared at him with blazing eyes, and said: "Pei Jun has been in Nanyang for many years, and this can be regarded as your second hometown, please think more about the people of Nanyang before leaving, and leave a little drinking water, and the people of Nanyang will remember Pei's good in the future." ”

She said: "Ordinary people are the most affectionate, every peck and drink are remembered in their hearts, and they are the investment that will not make the superior regret the most." ”

Although Pei He didn't agree with this, at this time, the lives of him and his family were in the hands of Zhao Hanzhang, so naturally he would not refute at this time, so he nodded in response, indicating that he would be loyal before leaving.

Zhao Hanzhang let go of him at this time, smiled and said, "It's getting late, so I won't disturb Pei Junshou." ”

Qiu Wu pushed open the window, Zhao Hanzhang ignored the blood that he had just stepped on on the soles of his shoes, and jumped out as soon as he stepped on the couch, and the guards followed one by one, and there were only Pei He and the two boxes left in the room in an instant, as well as the obvious blood-colored footprints on the couch.

Pei He trembled and stretched out his hand to hold the wooden couch, slowly sat down on the pedal, and shouted in a dumb voice: "Come, come ...... someone"

I had already brought hot water, but because I heard a voice talking inside, I thought it was the staff who had found it again, and the chief of the staff hurriedly pushed open the door and asked, "Is the master going to wash?" Mr. Chen, they ......"

When I turned the screen, I saw that there was only the old man in the inner room, and the window was wide open, and the cold wind poured in, and I didn't see anyone talking to the old man.

He was a little puzzled, but he couldn't ask, so he stepped forward and listened to the instructions.

Pei He only hated Chang Sui at this time for being too honest, and he didn't have any cleverness at all.

He raised his arm, and the other party stepped forward to support him, seeing that his arms were trembling and his whole body was cold, he couldn't help but be shocked, "Master, you are going to suffer from the cold, it's terrible." ”

When he helped the person up, he saw the box that was opened on the ground, and he also smelled blood, but he didn't think about it, he was busy trying to clean it up, and Pei He only had time to stop it, "Don't ......"

The voice was sharp, Chang Sui was startled, his hand shook, the box fell to the ground, and a bloody human head rolled out of the black cloth, staring at them with round eyes.

Chang Sui screamed, rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground with a thud.

Pei He: ......

He shook his lips, closed his eyes, and sat down slowly on the wooden couch, and he shouted outside, "Someone, someone—"

The voice traveled far and wide, but no one answered for a long time.

It was too cold, and it was already late at night, and even the subordinates could not stand outside in the cold all the time, everyone hid in the house, through the doors and windows and thick cloth felt, and it was a long time before anyone realized that the master was calling.

Hurriedly ran out to listen to the order, and after a while, the entire county guard mansion became lively, first the study lit the lamp in the courtyard, then the main courtyard, and then the screams came from the guest courtyard, and the entire county guard mansion became noisy.

The bodies of the two staff members were found in their room, not far from the door, and apparently the assailants were following behind them, and they were killed as soon as they entered the house.

Mrs. Pei was also frightened, her hands and feet were soft at this time, and she covered her chest and gasped for several breaths before asking, "Master, who is so ruthless and vicious, and even sent a head to you?" ”

Pei He was silent.

Mrs. Pei hated her teeth, "Meng Ze, quickly call someone and let him investigate, and be sure to take down this wicked person." ”

He knows who it is, but if he dares to take it, can he take it?

Pei He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he said to Mrs. Pei: "Pack up our things, we will leave Luyang tomorrow." ”

Mrs. Pei was slightly flustered and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go home," he said, "I won't do this official." ”

Mrs. Pei's eyes widened, this was too sudden, she didn't react for a while, a little confused, "Why?" ”

Pei He glanced at her and said, "In order to live, we have to leave if we want to live." ”

Mrs. Pei was angry and shocked, "Who is so bold as to dare to threaten you like this!" ”

And hated that he was not made of steel, "He threatens you, will you obey?" You are also a county guard of a country, so courageless, are you not afraid of the world's jokes when you spread it? ”

Pei He: "...... The sword is already on my neck, and if I don't agree, not only me, you, but also the children will die! ”

"Is my Pei family's guard an ornament? Are the soldiers of Nanyang Kingdom all bad seeds? ”

Pei He wiped the saliva on his face, heard his wife's sarcasm, and sighed deeply: "People came to my study quietly, not only listened to a plan between me and my staff, but also didn't alarm people to cut off two heads and send them to me, what use do you say the guards can be?" ”

"Even if the guards can find out, will the Xiping Iron Horse in her hand be afraid of this little person in my house? It's just a few more lives," Pei Hedao: "As for the soldiers of Nanyang Kingdom, not to mention, her prestige in the Nanyang Kingdom Army may still be above me, and everyone knows that they have to listen to the history of assassination." ”

Mrs. Pei was stunned for a moment, and then grabbed him and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

Pei He pulled back his sleeves vigorously and said sullenly: "Who else, isn't it Zhao Hanzhang who you boasted a lot of and envied some time ago?" ”
