43 Good and evil cause and effect
At that moment, Jiang Wangcai was about to beg Fang Dongfeng for mercy, but Yan Sidao suddenly took over the conversation and asked: "Brother Jiang, after this battle, not only the eight hundred miles of Dongting Lake, but also the entire vast area of the lake, will also return to the jurisdiction of the imperial court. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Do you know what the first thing to do after the imperial court takes back Huguang?"
Jiang Wangcai suddenly asked a question when he heard this, and said casually: "Naturally, it is to completely exterminate Jiang, just like the Divine Fire Sect in the past, and uproot the power of my Dongting Lake and wipe it out cleanly. His words seemed to be answering Yan Sidao's question, and he was secretly showing favor to the Divine Fire Sect, wanting to arouse Fang Dongfeng's hatred.
But he kept shaking his head and said, "Wrong, wrong." He knocked out the ashes in the cigarette pot and refilled a bag of tobacco, and then said slowly: "Since the emperor of this dynasty sat firmly in the country and set the capital of Jinling, all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are dazzling and countless. However, if it were not for the fact that the foreign races of the previous dynasty had insulted our Central Plains so much, and thus there was such a bad precedent as a comparison, I am afraid that people with lofty ideals from all over the world would have been unable to rely on it because of the heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and would have risen up and rebelled against the imperial court like Brother Jiang. ”
Speaking of this, he lit the cigarette stick in his hand, took a few puffs of smoke, and continued: "However, Brother Tuojiang's Hongfu, Huguang has been independent for more than ten years, and he is floating outside Kyushu. The people are in Huguang, not only have they not been tyrannized by the imperial court, but they have Brother Jiang, a great benevolent man, to help them everywhere...... Hehe, so from this point of view, if the emperor of the current court is mean and unkind, the first thing to do after taking back Huguang should be what should be?"
Jiang Wangcai suddenly talked about the people of Huguang when he heard this, and forgot that his life was on the stake for a while, and said, "Not bad...... Not bad...... My Dongting Lake lineage is deeply rooted in Huguang, and even if the imperial court can bring in a million troops, it will never be possible to eradicate us all overnight. When the treasury was empty after this great drought, the emperor might as well start with politics first, and collect back the taxes owed over the years from the people of Huguang, so as to completely defeat the entire Dongting Lake line...... "The more he talked, the more frightened he became, and when he said this, he didn't dare to say more.
I only heard Yan Sidao clapping his hands and said: "That's right! Brother Jiang, the blood you have spilled and the effort you have spent in the past ten years have ended up like this for the people of Huguang. Haha, the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger, the poison is like a snake, a piece of paper, a few new orders, I don't know how many families will be happy and a few sad on the vast land of this lake, and a few will be floating outside?"
When Fang Dongfeng heard this, he already understood the intention of this "Mr. Xiao", and he just snorted coldly at the moment, but he didn't intervene silently. Jiang Wangcai's face twitched and trembled because of Yan Sidao's words, he has been sitting in Huguang for more than ten years, although he has selfishness, but most of the purpose is indeed to seek the well-being of the people of Huguang. Who knew that he made a mistake in the past, and now he has lost everything, and he has lost not only his life, but also the peace of the entire people of Huguang, how can he accept it for a while?
You must know that since Yan Sidao learned that Jiang Wangcai wanted to let out a bad breath, he asked the ink master to unlock the seal on Dongting Lake and put Xie Qinghui and his party to death, and he had already moved to kill at that time. Now seeing that Jiang Wangcai was forced into a desperate situation by Fang Dongfeng again, he finally showed his cowardly and incompetent side, and begged Fang Dongfeng several times, survival is only between the first line. Rather than this, it is better to fulfill him by himself.
As his words came out, Yan Sidao saw that Jiang Wangcai was getting closer and closer to collapse, and he didn't stop talking at the moment, and continued: "Of course, who is not at fault? As long as you can endure the hardships of lying on your salary and tasting courage, sooner or later there will be a comeback. Brother Jiang started from the Yuanjiang River in Yiyang, and gradually controlled the entire Huguang, and was surprised so far, if he can save a life and retreat to Yuanjiang, the birthplace of Brother Jiang, even if there is no chance to chase the Central Plains, at least he can keep the wealth of the second half of his life. ”
This Jiang Wangcai first miscalculated the intentions of the Divine Fire Sect, and in one fell swoop unlocked the seal of Dongting Lake, putting himself to death. Then Fang Dongfeng won the gambling contract of the pot with trickery, and at this moment, he was also charged with a crime of harming the people of Huguang by Yan Sidao, which can really be said to be sad and discouraged. However, the words at this moment seemed to be a spark exploded in the dark, and a straw was found when he drowned, so that Jiang Wang regained a glimmer of hope.
Yes, as this "Mr. Xiao" said, as long as you can endure the hardships of lying on your salary and tasting courage, sooner or later there will be a comeback......
Who knew that Jiang Wangcai hadn't had time to think carefully about his hope, and suddenly heard Yan Sidao's tone change, and shouted: "But having said that, but Jiang Wangcai, I dare to ask the last sentence, why did the overlord of Chu back then rather die than cross the Wujiang River?"
This short sentence, like a thunderbolt from the sky, slammed down on Jiang Wangcai's head, beating him to the ground and scattering his soul. Jiang Wangcai's face suddenly turned blank, and he kept muttering to himself: "Naturally, it's because of face...... That's it...... What else do I have to meet Jiangdong's father...... What else do I have to see Jiangdong's father......
Yan Sidao scolded loudly: "Bullshit! What kind of bullshit face? What kind of shameless face to Jiangdong's fathers and elders is all a bullshit reason made up by a bunch of worldly stupid people!" Speaking of excitement, he couldn't help but knock the dry tobacco stick in his hand on several cases, making a dull loud sound, as if an old bell in an ancient temple in the deep mountains suddenly rang, piercing the depths of people's hearts.
With this percussion, Yan Sidao shouted word by word: "The overlord of Chu refuses to cross the Wujiang River, just because he is the overlord of Chu!
That Jiang Wangcai suddenly realized from his madness, calmed down for a moment, and immediately laughed and said: "Yes, the overlord of Chu refuses to cross the Wujiang River, it is because he is the overlord of Chu, the only overlord of Chu in the countries of the four seas and thousands of generations! Xiang Yu refused to cross the Wujiang River back then, so why does Jiang Wangcai need to return to the Yuanjiang River today?"
After saying this, Jiang Wangcai raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and suddenly turned his head to face an unusually broken wooden pillar in the public hall, and his forehead had hit it heavily under the force of his waist. As a large piece of dust fell from Jiang Wangcai, his burst brain spurted out along with blood, splashing all over the ground.
