76. What to do with this family?
It turned out that those mountain bandits were discussing how to kill their family in front of Gu Chenfeng and the children!
After arguing for a long time, the big boss said: "It's useless to kill, brothers think about it again, see if it's better to kill them?" Or is it better to keep it? Or let them go? ”
Hearing this question, Shen Yanran suddenly stopped, found a position to block her eyes, and listened quietly.
Yuanyuan also cleverly followed her side.
The other women, seeing that the matter discussed by the family was a matter of life and death, understood that they let them stay and did not urge them to work.
I feel quite sympathetic to them.
It's also strange to say, I used to think that one of their mother and daughter was the wife of the son, and the other was the daughter of the son, living a rich and noble life, so they couldn't help but make all kinds of difficulties and disgust, and now they learned that the mother and daughter were worse than them, and they felt sympathy and pity.
When the second master saw Gu Chenfeng's father and son appear, he smiled proudly, and pointed to Gu Chengfeng:
"The big boss, brothers, this Yun'an son, but after my careful arrangements for many days, he fell into our hands, I hope that the owner of the village and the brothers will discuss the most favorable way to deal with them, but don't let me and the brothers I brought to arrest people, the hard work is in vain!"
The big boss nodded and looked at everyone present, "I heard that the old prince followed behind with soldiers, if the old prince sent troops to attack our cottage, our cottage would not be able to bear it, should we let the prince of Yun'an go, or should we take him as a hostage and negotiate terms with the people of the court?" Let's brainstorm together and think about our next steps. ”
When the team leader who was doing my cottage heard the words of the big boss, they all fell into deep thought, racking their brains to think of a proper way.
The second master was the first to speak, "Big boss, I have an idea, our cottage has an excellent geographical location, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the general comes, it may not be able to attack our village, why should we be afraid?" ”
The others echoed him, believing that their cottage was a natural fortress, surrounded by mountains, and that there was only one entrance, and that entrance was very narrow, and it was not easy to attack their cottage.
Even if the old prince has thousands of troops and horses, when he arrives at their stockade, there is only one entrance, and only one person can pass at a time, and if he wants to enter, he can only line up. And they are guarding at the pass, and when they come in, they will cut and kill one another, and what can thousands of troops do to them?
This is also the reason why they are so arrogant, even the prince of Yun'an, the prince of the royal family, they are not afraid, they have this natural barrier, they are their biggest backer, they are not even afraid of thousands of troops and horses, how can they be afraid of a prince of Yun'an?
However, there are also people who are in awe of these court people, for fear that if they really offend them, they will not have a good life in the future.
"I think we can't live in the mountains for the rest of our lives without going out, we have to go out to hunt and buy things, although there are fields and land in the mountains that can make us self-sufficient, we don't want to live a life of being arrested and fleeing, if we can negotiate terms with the prince of Yun'an, let him leave, and restore our status as good citizens, it's okay, there is no need to kill their family."
Hearing that someone disagreed with him, the second master immediately retorted, "We are living better here than those people who are suffering from the flood outside, why do we want to go down?" Only they squeezed their heads and wanted to come up to us, and there is no reason why we still want to go down and live a hard life with them! ”
The words of the second master quickly won the hearts of most of the people present, and many people couldn't help but be biased towards the idea of the second master.
"That's right, what the second master said makes sense, with our current conditions, there is no need to look at the faces of those people in the court!"
The big boss didn't agree with this, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, there is no need to say anything about this matter, I still say the same thing, we are not real bandits, arrest the prince here, I just want to negotiate with him about the conditions, let him know the suffering of our people, and when he arrives in the disaster place, he can think more about our people and make a difference, not to show the ability of our cottage and go against the court, this is not my original intention to build this cottage!" ”
Hearing the big boss say this, everyone fell silent for a moment.
The second master tugged at the corners of his mouth, very disappreciative in his heart, he glanced at the brothers present, "Big boss, brothers, do you think that we have arrested the prince this time, and let his wife and concubine serve us like this, can the prince swallow this breath?" If we put him back, what kind of means will he use against us?
Although the big boss is unwilling to go against the court, but since we have captured the prince today, we are already fighting against the court, and even against the entire royal family. ”
"Then in your opinion, what are you going to do with the Shizi family?"
Seeing that the second master actually raised objections with himself, the owner of the village couldn't help frowning and asking.
Gu Chenfeng and a few children, as well as Shen Yanran and Yuanyuan, who were hiding outside and eavesdropping, also stood up their ears and listened carefully.
The second master replied: "If you want me to say, you should leave this prince in our cottage, treat him as an ordinary prisoner, and let them do whatever they want.
When we are short of supplies, let the prince of this world write a letter and take it to the old prince, who must be afraid of his only son in our hands, so he will not dare to attack us easily.
And in order to make our sons, daughters-in-law and grandsons live a better life in our cottage, we will send supplies so that we can get a steady stream of supplies.
If they dare to break the agreement, the lives of the prince are also in our hands, and we can kill them at any time, and the old prince will definitely take care of their lives, and will naturally be obedient to us and give us what we want. ”
"Wonderful!" Hearing this method of the second master, most of the people agreed very much, and gave a thumbs up: "The idea of the second master is really wonderful, it has restrained the prince and the old prince and let our cottage get a steady supply!" ”
"Even if we go out and go down the mountain and kidnap the rich officials, they take us away and do what they want to do to us, as long as we move out of the fact that the prince is still in our cottage, these officials and the old prince will not dare to do anything to us!"
Seeing that more and more people agreed with the idea of the second master, the big boss frowned even deeper: "Aren't you worried that we have been keeping Yun'an Shizi in the cottage as a threat, if we go down the mountain one day, the old prince will also arrest us, and threaten our lives until Yun'an Shizi is released?" ”
Hearing the words of the big boss, the second boss took the lead again, and laughed fearlessly: "Even if the old prince arrests us, what then? Which is more important than the life of the son of Yun'an? Who is expensive and who is cheap? The old prince is naturally clear in his heart, we have a cheap life, but Yun'an Shizi is very expensive, threatening with our lives, I believe that the old prince will not be so stupid! ”
The rebuttal of the second master completely convinced the brothers again, and felt that his statement was the most ideal.
The big boss always felt that this method was inappropriate, and still shook his head and said: "I still think this method is inappropriate, and it has always been a big trouble to let the prince stay in our village." ”
"Then according to the idea of the big boss, what should we do with this family of the prince?"
The second master took a sip of wine, looked at the big boss along the wine glass, and seemed to be smiling.
All the people also raised their eyes and looked fixedly at the great master who sat on the throne, to hear what he had to say.
At this time, the big boss inexplicably felt a pressure, looking at the brothers staring at him in unison, he knew that these people had already listened to the words of the second master, and now his opposition caused everyone's disgust.
He took a deep breath and hesitated to speak his mind in its entirety.
