Chapter Twenty-Six: Breaking the Way!
"My lord, as long as you want to go and see, I will naturally not shirk the old man, but the river is a hundred miles away from the county seat, and I am afraid of delaying the adult's trip!"
As soon as the old farmer heard that Leng Yan was interested in the river, he immediately expressed his willingness to lead the way, and now his words are just polite.
"It's okay, uncle, delay your efforts today, and I will send a servant to help you then. ”
Leng Yan nodded slightly, and then ordered Jiang Wei to return to the city as soon as possible and bring a carriage over, this old farmer is too old to ride a war horse at all.
"My lord, I will do this little bit of land for the old man, I will do it myself, how dare I bother my lord, besides, I have delayed the benefit of our people, how can you let me explain to other people!"
As soon as the old farmer heard that he was going to send someone to help him after the cold was over, he hurriedly waved his hand and said that he didn't need to.
In the old farmer's heart, everything Leng Yan did was to benefit the people, so not to mention delaying only one day's effort, even if he delayed for ten days, he didn't have anything.
"Then it's a problem for the old man. ”
Leng Yan didn't insist anymore, there are very few people who can be used under his hands now, and he has been recruiting people for the past few days, but most of Quanyang County are old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are few young people, and even if there are, they are not selected by the county government because of their weak health.
"Hey, uncle, I see that you are almost in your prime, why did your children go, but your second elder is working here!"
While the carriage had not yet come, Leng Yan and the old farmer chatted sentence by sentence.
"Returning to my lordship, this matter is a long story, Cao Zheng and Huang Si were in charge at the beginning......."
The old farmer talked about the past and became endless, until Jiang Wei took the carriage over, he didn't finish speaking, and finally Leng Yan and the old farmer sat in the carriage and went all the way to Shiyang River.
However, what Leng Yan didn't know was that on the only official road leading to Quanyang County, there were some sergeants, about a thousand people.
They did not carry axes, hooks and forks, but hoes, shovels, and other tools.
After turning over and dismounting, they dug up the official road, and it seemed that they would not give up if they did not dig up the official road.
The most hateful position they chose is very crucial,
This belongs to the territory of Shanyang County, Shanyang County also belongs to Hexi County, although it borders with Quanyang County, but the bordering places are insurmountable mountains, the only place to open is here, as long as the road here is dug up, it is considered to be completely cut off the road to the interior of Quanyang County to the Great Zhou.
"Brothers, hurry up and dig, the master has an order, in the future, in addition to flying birds, even a hare here will not be able to go over in the future. ”
One of the sergeants, who appeared to be the leader, shouted at the top of his voice.
"Yes, sir!"
After some of the surrounding men shouted, they took off their armor one after another, rounded their shoulders and dug up the official road.
Whatever is said above, they will do it, even if they know that if this place is cut off, the people of Quanyang County will be completely separated from the Great Zhou in the future, and it will be difficult for the people of the same Great Zhou to enter Quanyang County in the future.
The sergeants did not stop until noon.
At this time, the official road has long since lost its former appearance, let alone a horse-drawn carriage, and it will take a lot of effort for pedestrians to pass through.
While they were resting on dry food, the sergeants whispered,
"What do you mean by master? How much effort did it take to take Quanyang County back then, but now it is in vain that you have to dig up the back road?"
"I guess I want to give up Quanyang County, you think, for so many years, Quanyang County has been famous for being barren throughout the Great Zhou, and Quanyang County has gone west to some countries in the Western Regions, and I have to deal with those countries in the Western Regions every year for the safety of Quanyang County, plus ....."
Speaking of this, the soldier quietly gestured with the word "three".
"Alas, that's what I said, in the future, Quanyang County and Da Zhou will only have a nominal relationship. ”
The other soldier nodded in understanding, and immediately sighed.
In the imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the palace, a beautiful woman stood in front of the emperor, seeing that her cultivation was not weaker than Leng Jue at all, she opened her mouth coldly at this moment.
"I cut off the road in Quanyang County, which is much better than you cut off the salt supply!"
Her indifferent face made the emperor coldly furious,
"You are so ruthless, there are still tens of thousands of people in Quanyang County. ”
"Hmph, tens of thousands of people? I think you're just making excuses and don't want to kill him, you say, don't you think so? ”
After the beautiful woman heard the cold words, she first released her own momentum.
If such a situation is seen by the civil and military officials of the Great Zhou, their jaws will definitely drop, in the Great Zhou, the emperor is cold, no one dares to offend him, but now he is so contradicted by this beautiful woman.
"You...... Salt supply is also equivalent to ....."
The emperor wanted to refute, but he was speechless for a moment, and for a long time, he seemed to have some handle in his hand, and his tone slowly softened,
"Since you cut off the road, then it's broken, it's just that I have lost a vast piece of land after the Great Zhou, which is really a pity. ”
"Hahaha, high-sounding, it's just a wasteland, in fact, you want to give up that place for a long time, don't you?"
The beautiful woman didn't buy it, but continued to ridicule the emperor for being cold.
"If you think so, then I can't help it. The coldness on his face became more and more obvious.
"Leng Jue, for so many years, I have been standing silently behind you, paying for you, what am I trying to do? It's not for your good, it's for our son! For the whole Da Zhou, but because of that slut's son Leng Yan, you have been against me again and again, I just want to ask, what point am I not as good as that slut!"
The beautiful woman seemed to say something sad, and the previous momentum slowly disappeared.
"Why are you so paranoid, the grievances of the past have passed, what are you still mentioning it for? Now that Leng Yan has no salt, even the official road has been cut off, and you can't live for many days, can't you stop it?"
After Leng Jue heard the beautiful woman's words, he let out a long sigh.
"Stop, how many people can really think about you in the whole Da Zhou? Who else is there besides me? If you don't get rid of the cold flame, you will definitely become a big problem in the future, but you are because that slut is soft-hearted!"
The beautiful woman didn't buy it, she had been holding it back for a long time, especially after hearing the news that there was still the remnant of the Dark Wolf Iron Rider alive today, her resentment finally broke out.
"Okay, okay, can you turn this story in the future? After the Great Zhou, there will be no Leng Yan, and there will be no Quanyang County, okay?"
Leng Jue was silent for a moment, and finally put down the emperor's shelf, as if talking to his family.
"Hmph, it's pretty much the same, this time the matter of Daliang, I'll think of a way, my brother will go over there and be accommodating, with him coming forward, maybe he can solve the matter of salt supply." ”
The beautiful woman saw that the emperor had completely softened, and her tone was no longer as tough as before.
"Then it's troublesome Uncle Guo. ”
Leng Jue's face also regained his calm, but what he was thinking in his heart, outsiders had no way of knowing.
On the other side, under the guidance of Leng Yan and the others, they finally came to the Shiyang River not far away.
Listening to the rumbling sound of flowing water in his ears, Leng Yan knew that the flow of this river must not be small.
Sure enough, when he came to the river, he couldn't help but exclaim,
Even Jiang Wei, Du Ruhui and others were also amazed,
They really didn't expect that nature would be so magical and create such a magical river.
