After a few moments, the entire Zeng family was completely silent, and only faint weeping could be heard in the huge garden.

At this time, someone reported: "The county lord is here." ”

Ye Qing got up and said, "I'll go and greet you." ”

When he arrived at the gate, he saw Lu Ming coming, Ye Qing bowed down, let go of his hand, and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, I was going to invite you over, the Zeng family colluded with the Northern Wei Dynasty, the crime is unforgivable, killing people is my right, but it is your right to raid the house." ”

Lu Ming heard the report early in the morning, saying that he was slashed and killed on the spot in the garden, and he was unhappy, but at this time, Ye Qing came out to greet him, wearing armor, but he had a calm and quiet temperament, without the slightest bit of anger, and couldn't help but nod.

Ye Qing led him away, and said calmly: "Lord Lu, I'm not killing people for fun, I'm just a little selfish, not to mention anything else in the Zeng family, these thirty Hu Qi alone are enough to prove that they colluded with the Northern Wei Dynasty." ”

"If I'm not bad, I've been able to copy a lot of evidence, including a lot of weapons in the house. ”

"It's just that this Zeng family has been building for hundreds of years, and the county is intertwined, even if I have evidence, I really start a lawsuit, and I can't get it down in a few years

"This drag has also dragged me down, it's better to just kill it now, without the bitter master, and with iron evidence, it will be easy to end.

Lu Ming sighed when he heard this, and when he looked at it in a blink of an eye, he saw that all the corpses were there, most of them were from the Zeng family, and the Zeng family also had 2,000 people, but most of them lived in the surrounding fields, and there were not many people in the main garden, even so, there were at least three hundred men up and down, and they were killed together at this time.

And talking like this, but it was really jaw-dropping, for a while, he couldn't say a word, Lu Ming stayed for a long time before asking: "What about Hu Qi?

"They're all killed, and I'm going to fight in the cottage, how can I play with them?"

Saying that, he took a long breath and smiled: "Since you are here, the inventory of the family property and population will be entrusted to you, according to the imperial court system, these are the rights of the local chief." ”

"However, the cottage is not in this case, to be honest, my family died 23 people in the battle, and it takes a lot of compassion to boost morale, and it has to rely on looting after breaking the village. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and left, and with that, a large number of people retreated like a tide, leaving only a dozen people counting them.

No matter how rest assured, you have to participate in the inventory by your own people, or Lu Ming will have a handful of pits, and there will be no place to cry.

Seeing Ye Qing go away, Lu Ming let out a sigh, and the clothes behind his back were half wet.

Imperial capital

The iron workshop in the eastern suburbs of the city was inspected, the king of Yujun hurried back, it was a little late, the sun was setting on the horizon, the east gate was closing, this time can be allowed to enter or not allowed to enter, there is always some trouble, the coachman is not allowed to take out the letter sign of the county king's mansion.

King Yujun was dressed in civilian clothes and was in the car, closed his eyes and listened to their negotiations, and his fingers tapped a few cases, but there was no accident, and the city gate guards did not dare to say more and let them go.

When you enter the city, the night falls, the streets and alleys are deep, the people are densely populated, the vegetable market and the rice market are mostly closed, and more grocery shops are lit up and continue to operate, and small traders begin to set up stalls.

The streets are full of people, adults holding children, men and women, and scholars joining hands with scholars...... The prosperity has its own smoky splendour.

The feedback from the iron workshop was very good, and the king of Yujun was in a good mood, so he lifted the curtain of the car, listened and watched with interest, and sighed for a while: "I really envy such a simple life." ”

Fu Cheng Jiang Nan was speechless when he heard it, tried to find the words, and said euphemistically: "This is not a choice for the prince. ”

"Lonely Knowledge, Lonely Knowledge......"

Passing by some teahouses in Xuandefang in the east of the city, in the continuous yellow lights, the sound came down the night breeze, and I heard a lot of talk about the small victory of the imperial court on the grassland, the most common is to praise General Shen Yuncheng for how good he is at fighting......

The smile on King Yujun's face gradually faded, Shen Yuncheng was the person of the Six Emperor Brothers, and it was not a happy thing to watch the enemy rise

Living in a place like the imperial capital, everyone has a sense of politics in their hearts, and the world is gathered here, and there will always be rumors, not to mention the gossip of the boudoir, just talking about the big politics and side affairs, which involve the vital interests of each person, or the sense of security in the heart of the imperial dynasty where they live, and spread faster.

Last year, the emperor once just received the war report, the matter has been spread all over the city, although it is not accurate information, but it still provoked the emperor's anger, ordered a thorough investigation to no avail, and finally cut off the heads of two small yellow doors to explain.

It's hard to say whether there is an unjust killing, and it's not a special line secret and emergency military intelligence, there are too many links, who knows which guy in the road has gone out of the air with a breath, and some of them have forgotten about it......

The bureaucratic system itself is a big sieve, only the mesh is dense, and some of the mesh is sparse, and the more important news that involves a wide range of things, the more it cannot be concealed for a long time, and at the end of the day, it can only turn a blind eye.

Keyu Junwang was educated by the prince, and he knew very well in his heart that this screen was not useless, but just to save the cost of governance: "The small people can talk about black and white at will, because the little shrimp has no strength, just talk about it, but the father and the emperor will lose his temper for this in recent years......"

"When it comes to officials, it is a fish, and the mesh size is matched, and the small fish can also make a discussion on national affairs and point out the country's words, but dare to talk about the top boss and take a look?"

"As for the big fish, if you are not careful to speak, you will be a big heel if you are not careful"

"At my level, I can't talk about national affairs easily, and if I export it casually, I will be accidentally interpreted and used, which is a disaster...... There will be wind and rain in Jiaolongxing, who would believe that the dignified county king just made casual comments and had no political purpose?"

Thinking like this, he let the bustling night market outside, and then he didn't want to look at it, so he went back to the county king's mansion.

As soon as I entered the backyard, there was a tempting fragrance from the lakeside pavilion, and the princess was directing the maid to cloth the vegetables, looking back with a smile: "I guess you're coming back, you haven't had dinner yet, right?"

"It's useless" King Yujun nodded: "On the way, I thought about your concubine......"

He deliberately lengthened his voice, sweeping his wife's beautiful figure, the princess's face was slightly red, and just as she was about to speak, she heard him serve the dish familiarly: "...... craftsmanship. ”

The princess glared at him, endured her shame and whispered, "All of them are still there." ”

is talking about the maids who served near Zuo, and the king of Yujun knew that his wife wanted a three-dimensional face, so he waved his hand to let the maids step down and serve her alone.

Glancing at the empty table next to her, there were several cases with wine and food, but there was no one in sight, which was a little strange: "Where's my sister?

"What's the matter, she went to Qingyuanguan early in the morning, and I heard that there is a garden fair, some jinshi, and the same jinshi...... The sister-in-law had to ask her to go, and she might have stayed for the dinner......" The princess looked behind him, blinked, and smiled.

King Yujun looked back and smiled: "What about you, why did my sister come back so quickly?"

"I really keep it there for the banquet, Wen Yan ......" The county lord of Mingyu turned around and covered the door, wearing a well-fitting dress, but with a black face: "There are so many...... Junjie, some of the words are annoying to hear......"

She sighed and sat down at the dining table, remembered something, and said, "I have already shown this book to my sister-in-law—by the way, when it comes to books, they are all a little dismissive."

King Yujun was stunned for a moment, and came to his senses: "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms? is there some criticism, dignified and open-minded, writing these novels is originally a loss of face." ”

"Besides, he is not willing to be a literary talent, I can't figure it out"

The county lord of Mingyu stared at his brother who didn't like to read: "The masterpiece of the people's list of eyes has not been completed, so I will give it to you to see, you have only read a few chapters, and you have lost your yawn, and you have commented like this, and you ran out of the house early......"

The princess pursed her lips and laughed, no matter how virtuous she was, it was inevitable that she would complain about her husband's lack of home.

"He doesn't like to read this book...... "King Yujun defended, and when he talked about Ye Qing, he remembered the words in the secret letter, and asked, "What did my sister-in-law say?"

This is the princess who is a monk

"What can you say yet?"

The stars and moon hung low, reflecting the secluded water, drinking wine, talking, and then there was a homely atmosphere, and the mood of King Yujun became happy, so he stopped talking.

After the feast, the family walked and chatted by the lake, and the guards stayed away.

The women in the family are a little bit political, and they are a little concerned at this time: "There is a lot of disturbance outside, one will say that it is retreating from the enemy, and the other will say that it is beheading two thousand, how is the battle going?"

"There were beheadings, but there were not two thousand, only more than a thousand remained, and the number reported by the military magician was correct. King Yujun said casually, this is not secret information at the top.

"In fact, it can be pursued, but this mission is to penetrate several major grasslands in the southern part of the Northern Wei Dynasty and make nails on the seven inches of the snake's body, the enemy's cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and the crossbow arrow array moves slowly, and our cavalry is not good to release alone. ”

"Well, it's better to play steady. The princess agreed.

"Yes, it doesn't matter if you win or lose for a while...... To put it bluntly, what do you think is the exchange of fire? The border army, the vassal small tribes, the imperial court, and the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty have not yet been mobilized, and they are all just trying to see the reality before the autumn...... By the way, stack chips on the gambling table to show your strength, scare the other party, and unite yourself. When King Yujun said this, his eyes were shining.

The two girls heard some meaning, remembered the recent actions in the house, and glanced at each other.

In the summer evening breeze, the county lord of Mingyu brushed his hair and sighed slightly: "Actually, my sister-in-law said something, but it wasn't about books." ”

"Oh?"

"When she sent me out, she asked me to bring you a word" She stopped by the lake and looked back quietly: "I miss you very much, when the prince, Xiaoliu, Xiaoba, and you were all the closest to me, and I still remember that when I came to play with me, none of them were even ...... the height of the wheel."

King Yujun was stunned when he heard it, he couldn't tell what it felt, and he heard her sigh faintly: "Xiaoba has gone, many things in the province, you are born as a person of the heavenly family, you have the fate of the heavenly family, for me, peace is the most important, I see everything you do, watching you fight, I feel bad in my heart." ”

"Is this what my sister-in-law means, or is it ......" King Yujun was stunned, lowered his eyes and was silent, thinking of the majestic and terrifying man, and smiled bitterly for a moment: "My father won't say such things, I understand my sister-in-law's kindness......"

"Don't say that, the wealth is already very high now......" the princess said softly with relief.

"You women don......'t understand the taste of not being able to get ahead" King Yujun clenched his hands, looked at the stars and moons and the lake, and just thought in his heart.

When the dragon comes out, it will rise in the wind and rain, and then it will be a hidden abyss, do you want to fly the dragon in the sky?

And there is a big net here, the bigger the size, the more you feel the suffocation of this bondage, this is a net that catches all the fish and dragons in the world

After pondering for a long time, King Yujun smiled, with a hint of coldness: "The eldest brother and the sixth brother have become more and more active recently, which always makes my heart unstable...... Fortunately, Ye Qingxin reminded me again, I don't have to worry about it, I do my job, compromise and take fruit, what can be done depends on luck. ”

Seeing that they were worried, King Yujun felt a little depressed in his heart, but he hid it and didn't show it anymore, just smiled and changed the topic: "I won't hide it from you, I will write a novel in a dignified manner, and I will not talk about cooperating with the Yin family publishing, and what kind of serial sharing will I do, I will not be famous, and it is not this drilling method in the eyes of money...... What Ye Qing thinks, I really can't figure it out now. ”

"It's really hard to understand...... He has an idea, Zhilu Dao's sister-in-law likes literary anecdotes, and when she was a princess, she published two books, and even her father and emperor read it and gave it a good review. ”

The county lord of Mingyu frowned as he spoke, thought about it for a while, and explained to the princess with a smile: "But this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is still very interesting, my sister can take a look, it is different from the previous romance novels, it is very magnificent, and there are many moving feelings, and at the beginning Taoyuan was righteous......"

The princess heard it: "It's so good, I only heard my husband talk about it, after this Liu Bei is a royal family, he can only sell shoes for a living, and he is too depressed, and he has a low start, he has traveled to several places, his opponent is getting stronger and stronger, and he has not left anything behind, and he is depressed." ”

"Uh, isn't it only a part of it, it will get better in the future?" The county lord of Mingyu said with some uncertainty, glanced at his younger brother, and then turned to smile: "Liu Bei can't see it, you can look at Cao Cao, or Sun Ce and Sun Quan, there is always a agreeable rare He described the war scene vividly, as if he had been there...... It's a little cruel, and it has a great impact, so I think it can be written poetically, such as the wisdom and calculation of the strategists on both sides, and the brave generals will fight for 300 rounds......"

King Yujun couldn't finish talking when his sister mentioned Ye Qing, so he "chuckled" in his heart, and decisively interjected and interrupted: "It's appropriate to write cruelly, now that the imperial court's Northern Expedition is imminent, this book is out at the right time, let all the people take a look, and have a psychological preparation...... But the war in Yingzhou is about to start, how do I feel that this guy is not the one who writes honestly......"

"Isn't it, the eldest husband has made a promise, he will break his promise and enrich himself?"

"Ha Lu Ha, it's hard to say......"

After laughing, King Yujun said lightly: "This person didn't write this novel simply, and he wouldn't write to me if he did.

Speaking of this, he pursed his lips thoughtfully: "Let me think again"
