Chapter 23: Winning the hearts and minds of the people
The second prince obediently took a step back.
"Sister, if you don't cry, my brother asked people to fan the wind inside!" Equilibrium said immediately.
"Get someone to catch a chicken." Jun Qingcang finished his command and said: "In this kind of cave, like under the tomb, in addition to the mechanism, there may also be a lack of breath and poisonous gas. ”
Ling Yue once again felt that her father was really amazing, too powerful.
Jun Qingcang looked down at the daughter in his arms, and the corners of his lips were full of smiles.
His little Yue'er baby is really so smart, she even knows that the cave is poisonous, which is really unusual!
There were chickens and ducks in the mountains, but they were all snatched from the people at the bottom of the mountain, and before they finished eating, they threw them in the backyard and let people give them some food and raise them.
"The chicken is dead!" Jun Heng turned his head to look at his father: "Father, what should I do, there must be poisonous gas in this!" ”
"Look for the mechanism outside." Jun Qingcang said.
[Either they have an antidote, or they go in with their faces covered!] Ling Yue thought.
"Hei Yu, you go to Liu Datong's bedroom and see if there are any other clues, they can't be invincible." Jun Qingcang said.
Hei Yu left, Jun Qingcang sat on the stone on the side with Ling Yue in his arms, he patted his daughter lightly, and said, "Yue'er, you are the lucky star of your father, according to my estimate, this must be the military salary that was lost before." ”
"Father, if you said that if they were all lost salaries, why didn't they use them if they hijacked them?" Jun Heng asked.
"The military salaries are all from the treasury, and they all have official seals, and if they are rashly taken out and used, they will naturally be investigated, and perhaps, they still have a furnace that will melt the silver." Jun Qingcang explained to his son.
"These guys really have to be cut with a thousand knives in order to appease the hearts of the army and the people." Jun Heng gritted his teeth.
Black Feather came back, and sure enough, he took a black bottle and came back.
"Your Majesty, Gonggong Gao has already interrogated it, saying that this is indeed a treasure pavilion, and it is all hijacked things, and every time they come over, they will swallow a pill and then go in, otherwise, the poisonous mist inside will kill people." Black Feather said.
"Okay, then one per person!" Jun Qingcang looked down at the little girl in his arms, he really felt that this little girl was sent by God to save Daliang for him, and it was his most precious treasure.
Ling Yue felt that her father was really too smart to know how to send someone back to find the antidote.
[It's really a father-daughter connection, this father is so good, it's amazing! ] Ling Yue bared her teeth, and her saliva bubbled with laughter.
"Your Majesty, don't go in, the little princess is still young and can't take the antidote, just bring someone in!" Hei Yu swallowed the pill and brought a few of his men inside.
He didn't even let the two princes in, for fear that they would have an accident.
Soon, boxes of gold jewelry were moved out of it.
"It's not just the pay, it's ...... And weapons! Black Feather said.
"Weapons? Are they going to rebel? Jun Qingcang snorted coldly, he took the pill from Jun Yin's hand on the side and swallowed it, and then hugged his daughter to Jun Yin: "Heng'er, you go in with me, Yin'er, you protect your sister!" ”
Ling Yue could feel that her father was very angry.
However, when her father came out of the cave, he seemed to be even more angry.
"Heng'er, you take the tiger talisman out, pass the news to the border, let them send someone to the south to greet and carry the weapon, and then you find someone from Lingchuan County to come over and transport the weapon to the north together!" Jun Qingcang said.
Return to the county seat.
The people of the entire Lingchuan county were shocked.
"I heard that the county lord and the mountain bandits were making trouble together, and there are many weapons in the cave!"
"The county Cheng Ping Suri looks like a decent man and a gentleman, always shouting to clean up the bandits, but in the end, he is in the same stream as them!"
"Lord Zhao, you also have family children, and you also have a daughter, you just watched our daughter being dragged up the mountain by the bandits, and asked you to save it, but you said that you couldn't go up the mountain, all these years, I haven't blamed you!"
"That's right, my sister and they were all kidnapped and went up the mountain, until now, the bones don't know where they are, we don't blame you, we just think this bandit is too rampant, but in the end, you are with them, you are really not as good as a beast!"
The rotten leaves in the hands of the people were thrown at the two men at the gate of the city.
Everyone shouted and cursed, if it weren't for the officers and soldiers guarding them, they might rush up and bite off the flesh of these two people.
In recent years, bandits have been rampant in the mountains of Lingchuan, and the people have lived cautiously.
"We will hand over a lot of food to Lord Zhao every year, just so that he can send it to the mountains, so that those bandits don't come down the mountain to harm everyone, these years, this has become a rule, but I didn't expect that Lord Zhao, Lord Zhao, is actually in the same group as these bandits!"
Someone came over with a stone and threw it at Zhao Kai's head.
"Alright, execution!" Father-in-law Gao personally presided over it, and he snorted coldly.
At the entire city gate, the two bandits shouted for several hours before they finally breathed.
The people were horrified, but their anger was greater than the terror.
"Zhao Kai, this guy is not a thing!"
"Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor is here, Your Majesty is really discerning!"
"We resolutely support Your Majesty and become the people of Daliang!"
"With His Majesty the Emperor like this, how can my Great Liang decay!"
The people ran towards His Majesty the Emperor's post station, and they knelt outside the post station, kowtowing one after another, and the mountain shouted long live.
"Alright, let's all get up!" Jun Qingcang hugged his daughter, he looked at the group of people in front of him, nodded and said: "I have been negligent all these years, and now, the mountain bandits have been exterminated, you can all rest assured, the tax will be reduced and reduced before the spring of next year, and in the future, if there are more bandits in the mountains, I will definitely come to exterminate them in person!" ”
"Long live Your Majesty, Your Majesty is really a good Majesty!"
The people cheered.
It was already winter, and the food of the people had to be handed over to the bandits so that the bandits could have a good New Year.
However, the harvest in the crops was already small, the taxes were paid, and half of them were distributed to the bandits, and the year of every household was also tight, especially in the second year, when the green and yellow were not harvested, it was even more difficult.
Now, there are no more taxes, no more bandits, and they may be able to have a good year.
"No need to thank me, just remember Princess Guochang in the future." Jun Qingcang patted the little guy in his arms and said.
"......" The people turned their heads to look at each other, and then, everyone immediately kowtowed together: "The grass people must remember Princess Guochang, the princess Chitose Chitose, Chitose!" ”
