Volume 3 Jianghu Road, People's Hearts Are Dangerous Chapter 179 Everything is Ready (II)
This answer made the atmosphere in the hall freeze, and even He Ao, who had his own thoughts, looked over with some curiosity: "Brother Sun, what is the use of this corpse?" ”
"I'll be able to see this when the time comes." Sun Ning still sold a pass, and hugged his fists again, "It's about the next big thing, and I hope the He family can help." Presumably at the city gates, you always have something to do with each other. ”
"This ......" He Ji was slightly embarrassed, several city gates, their He family is indeed related, and they can put the body in. But the question is, is this really reliable? After putting it in, it really helps your own big things?
"If Second Master He can't make up his mind, please ask the old lady and Uncle He to meet." Sun Ning hurriedly added, "It's really a big deal, so I have to ask your mansion for help." ”
"My grandfather and uncle went out early in the morning...... He Ao couldn't help but speak.
Before he finished speaking, he was quickly interrupted by his father: "That's it, since Sun Shaoxia has asked for the door, our He family will help you in this matter!" ”
"Thank you so much. Two days later, on the 28th of the lunar month, he also asked the He family to send someone to pick up people under the mass grave in the western suburbs. By the way, a few more carts and horses can be used to transport things into the city. Seeing this, Sun Ning hurriedly settled the matter.
He Ji nodded, and he completely responded to the matter.
The only thing that made him feel uneasy was at this point in time, almost when his family was going to make an incident in Suizhou, what kind of role would these corpses play?
After the matter was decided, Sun Ning did not stay any longer and said goodbye. But there was a thought in his heart: "Looking at He Ji's reaction, he shouldn't want me to know the whereabouts of He Ben and He Gang, I'm afraid this has nothing to do with their overall plan." ”
Thinking of this, Sun Ning was not in a hurry to go back, so he simply walked around Suizhou City and listened to the news everywhere.
As a result, he really heard some statements-
The He family and the Ni family, the two most famous merchants in Suizhou, finally took the initiative to show goodwill to Yan Ke, who had usurped power, two days ago, and promised to give a large sum of silver and two warehouses of grain to supply the city.
At the same time, the Ni family also married the new Zhizhou Han Lun and married his young lady Ni Bing to Han Lun as a concubine.
The date of marriage has also been set, on the fifth day of the new year.
This can be regarded as putting the posture to the lowest, and it is completely low.
The people were very happy about these rumors, and most of them were happy, after all, it meant that Suizhou would soon be restored to its original appearance, and there would be no need to worry about possible turmoil.
Only a few people are resentful, which means that Yan Ke and other perverse guys really control Suizhou, and I am afraid that in the future, everyone's life will be more and more difficult.
Sun Ning smiled after hearing these statements.
I'm afraid this is just an illusion made by the He Ni family in order to stabilize the enemy and pretend to make concessions.
The more they concede now, the stronger they will fight back later.
The only thing that made him feel a little strange was that Yan Ke and Fang Xiang were really so easy to fool?
actually believed the other party's false intention to surrender, not only spared the two families, but also cut the previous defense of the city, isn't this creating an opportunity for opponents?
"I always feel that things are not so simple......" Sun Ning finally made such a judgment in his heart after drinking the wine in the tavern in one go.
……
Suizhou Taishou Mansion.
The heads of the two families of He Ni are sitting in the living room, and the one sitting upright above is now too strict.
"It's still very wise for the two of you to be willing to take the overall situation of my Suizhou and the state as the priority, and to cooperate with the officials and come up with money and food." Yan Ke said with a smile, very satisfied with the obedient people.
He Ben nodded and said again and again: "Lord Taishou is serious, as long as I can bring peace and prosperity to Suizhou in the future, my two families will definitely do their best, ask for money for money, and ask for grain for food." ”
Ni Yongdao also echoed: "Yes, Lord Taishou, our two families just have some assets, and it is also a good thing for us to be able to help the government and stabilize the place." ”
"Hahaha...... You can say that again. If the whole of Suizhou is as dedicated to the public as a few people, then why worry about my unrest in Suizhou and uneasy in Huguang! Yan Ke laughed with satisfaction.
"Don't worry, as long as you are willing to cooperate with the government, the benefits will be indispensable to you in the future. You also know that the Zonghenghui is a big chamber of commerce with trade routes all over the Central Plains, and when the time comes, the introduction of this official will inevitably make the two of you rise rapidly and become an important member of the Zonghenghui! ”
"Yes, yes, my lordship is grateful."
In this harmonious voice, He Gang suddenly opened his mouth again: "My lord, I will come here today, in fact, there is one more thing to please." ”
Yan Ke, who was in a good mood, smiled and said: "It's good to say anything directly, and please don't invite anything." It's too much to see. ”
"It's just that we have always had a custom in Suizhou. Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, Lord Taishou will lead all the important people in the city to worship at the Zhanghou Temple in order to ensure that the wind and rain in the coming year will be smooth.
"This incident was interrupted for two years because of changes in the world, which also led to more disasters in my Suizhou in the past two years, and many villages outside the city were uninhabited and the fields were barren. This is really not a blessing for me to follow the state.
"So after some deliberation among the others, I felt that it was better to sacrifice Zhang Hou again, in order to get the protection of his old man for the people of Suizhou......"
Facing the eager eyes of several people in the seat, Yan Ke frowned slightly: "Do we have such a custom in Suizhou?" Why haven't I participated before? ”
"Didn't my lord just transfer me to Suizhou for three years, and it happened that since then, the former Taishou has stopped sacrificing, so I don't know what happened. If the adults don't believe it, they can ask the old people in the yamen, and they must know. He Gang hurriedly explained.
"Yes, my lord, there are some things that you really can't believe it, I have experienced several turmoil in Suizhou in the past two years, maybe it is Zhang Hou and his old man's punishment for neglecting us. Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, please take a day out to make a sacrifice. Ni Yongdao also followed the persuasion.
Yan Ke's gaze scanned back and forth over several people, and after a while, he finally nodded with a smile: "It's easy to say." Since there is such a custom, then the official will listen to you. On Chinese New Year's Eve, I will lead the officials below to go to the Zhang Hou Temple with you to worship. ”
"My lord is wise, it's really a blessing for me to follow the state!" He Ben immediately stood up and saluted, and the other people in the hall also bent down to salute together, looking moved.
But at this time, if you look closely at his lowered head, you will find that the moved expressions of these people quickly changed to smug and murderous intent.
This time, everything is ready, and even the target will be led into the trap.
As soon as the time comes, they will be able to eradicate Yan Ke and other Suizhou disasters according to the arrangement, and regain control of the city!
