Chapter 121: Porridge Like This
The back office of the Dengzhou Mansion, the prefect Lord Qiu and several subordinates were frowning there.
The master said: "Now that all the household registration books have been taken by Lord Gu, if Lord Gu sees something, what should it be?" ”
Because no one has ever looked at these things, they didn't do a lot of meticulous work when it came to archiving the records.
"Yes, now that the entire government is under control, I am under house arrest here, and it is difficult to send a message to the outside." The warden sighed.
Lord Qiu was bitter in his heart, General Lu informed him, saying that Gu Zhouzhu was not easy to deal with, so he asked him to be cautious, but how did he know that Gu Zhouzhu was not only difficult, but also so strong.
"Everyone steady, now you and I are in the same boat, only by uniting can we get through the difficulties, if anyone has a different heart."
Lord Qiu paused, glanced at everyone with gloomy eyes, and his tone was a little colder: "Qin Cha is going to leave sooner or later." ”
When Lord Qincha leaves, you won't be able to run.
Red fruit land threatened.
The officials hurriedly expressed their loyalty: "Everything is based on the head of the adults and horses." ”
And on Lu Yiming's house, Lu Yiming said to his sister Lu Shanshan: "Qi Niang, release the food in your hand as soon as possible." ”
"Brother, I thought, but no one came to buy it, after all, I wasn't hungry enough."
When they die of hunger, they will not be disgusted by the high price of food.
"You're still trying to make money? Do you know who Chincha-sama is this time? ”
"Who is it?"
"Gu Zhou stopped."
Lu Shanshan: Uh......
"How is he?"
"And the grain merchant you reported a few days ago, do you know who is behind it?"
"Brother, just say it, don't ask me to guess."
"That batch of grain was made up by Princess Changping and many official wives in Beijing."
Lu Yiming was also shocked to know the news, when he was in the mansion, he and Lord Qiu didn't even have a chance to talk, so he kept an eye on it and made people stare at the mansion. The people he left behind saw the official messenger sending the grain to the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and took the opportunity to inquire about it, and only then did they know the news.
Lu Shanshan was stunned: "It's Princess Changping?" Brother, what can I do? Didn't I offend Princess Changping? ”
Her husband is just a small matter in the Ministry of Industry, how can he compete with Princess Changping?
Lu Shanshan was really panicked.
Lu Yiming glanced at her: "What are you afraid of?" People don't know that you reported it. ”
As long as Lord Qiu doesn't say it, who will know?
Master Qiu didn't dare to say it, he was convinced of this.
"Yes, yes, it's impossible for Princess Changping to know that it's me." Lu Shanshan pressed her chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Then I will reduce the price tomorrow to fifteen taels and one stone."
Lu Yiming snorted coldly: "If you don't want to lose all your money, it's best to drop it to less than five taels tomorrow." ”
"How's that going to work? I charged more than five taels and one stone, and I asked so many people to transport it. "Buying and selling at a loss, Lu Shanshan will never do it.
What's more, there is also a share of the crown princess here, but she patted her chest and made a package ticket at Qin Siyue's place.
But she didn't tell her brother about this.
"Whatever you want, if you lose, don't come and cry to me." Lu Yiming himself was so anxious that he had no intention of paying attention to Lu Shanshan's affairs.
He still had 300 soldiers under him in the palace, and he arranged today's matter too hastily. The first time I received a letter from Jingzhong was that Gu Zhouzhu and Ji Yunchen were going to Yunzhou first, but who knew that they would suddenly come to Dengzhou, which caught him off guard, so the arrangement went wrong.
However, fortunately, Duan Lei is dead, everything can be pushed on Duan Lei's head, and it is a big deal that he receives a crime of unknown knowledge.
If it weren't for the people who went to chase and kill Xu Jiang who recognized Jiuli, he wouldn't have taken a risk.
Ji and Gu are world friends, Ji Yunchen and Gu Zhouzhu are close friends, after the defeat of Gubei, the two seem to have made a bad relationship, but now it seems that it is all a trick, and the two of them must not give up on tracking down Gubei.
Therefore, his plan was to assassinate Ji Yunchen first, as soon as Ji Yunchen died, no matter how powerful Gu Zhou stopped, there were no soldiers in his hands, and it was difficult for the strong dragon to suppress the head snake, and it would be easy to kill Gu Zhouzhu when the time came.
Forget it, now they can only see the tricks first, if the two of them really find out something, it's a big deal to fight and break the net. In the boundary of Dengzhou, it is still him Lu Yiming who has the final say.
The next day, a porridge shed was set up in the open space outside the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and a few cauldrons were erected to start serving porridge.
The people who rushed to hear the news lined up in a long queue that could not be seen at a glance.
Chen Song brought a group of brothers from Tunli over to help maintain order.
Jiang Wanning asked Xiao Pan to call Chen Song in.
"Brother Chen, this is Master Gu's subordinate Zheng Guan, he came to Dengzhou a few days ago, and he heard a news and wanted to verify it with you."
Chen Song bowed his hand: "What does this adult ask to prove?" ”
"I heard that the Zhenbei Army in Dengzhou killed ordinary people and pretended to be Dayuan people to make military achievements, I don't know if you have heard of it."
Chen Song showed a look of resentment in his eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "I don't know if they are taking the heads of the common people to take the lead in the army, I only know that the government asked the common people to go outside the city to build fortifications, but they were attacked by the people of Dayuan, and all of them died. ”
"My father and my two brothers were so absent that they asked us to serve in forced labor this spring, so I ran away with my brothers and hid outside for three months before returning."
"So, the population of Dengzhou has plummeted, and everyone is afraid of serving forced labor before leaving Dengzhou?"
"Well, after a lot of walking, I and my brothers are the only young people left in our tun, and I really can't rest assured that the old lady at home is gone."
Jiang Wanning's silver teeth were secretly bitten: "Who dares to go to the conscription that wants people's lives?" ”
I really didn't expect that today's Zhenbei Army is so unbearable, so despicable, it can't kill the people of Dayuan, and if it wants military merits, it actually swings the butcher's knife at the people.
Seeing that the commander surnamed Duan killed the people yesterday without blinking an eye, it is not surprising that he did something to kill the people to pretend to be military merits.
They don't deserve to be called the Zhenbei Army at all, the former Zhenbei Army will only kill the enemy bravely and love the people.
"Brother Chen, is there a way to get evidence?"
Chen Song was embarrassed: "I once risked my death to find the body of my father and brother, but in the place where the incident occurred, except for the blood stains all over the ground, there was no body, and I don't know where the body went." ”
Jiang Wanning was silent: "Then we can only find another way." ”
At this time, Qingxing came in crying: "Lady, go and take a look, there is someone making trouble outside." ”
Jiang Wanning frowned: "Why are you crying when someone makes trouble?" ”
"The slaves and maids saw that there were a lot of people who were dressed very decently, and their faces didn't look like hungry people coming to receive porridge and steamed buns, so they persuaded them to leave the porridge for those who really needed it, who knew that they still murdered me, scolded me, and said that I was a fake good person and a good person...... "Qingxing said aggrievedly.
Last night, she made steamed buns all night, she was tired to death, and today she was scolded for being fake and kind, can she not be wronged?
Jiang Wanning thought for a moment and walked straight out, Zheng Guan and Chen Song hurriedly followed.
I saw Jiang Wanning come to the yard, pulled a handful of soil, and went out and threw the soil directly into the cauldron of cooking porridge.
Those who saw this scene muttered one after another.
"What do you mean by putting soil in the pot? Do you have such a soup kitchen? ”
