Chapter 1072: The Pillar of the State General Sees Leave
The group of miserable people before didn't know where to drive them to, Shen Qiaoan and Li Zhongxuan were surprised, but the good thing was that they had a place to eat as soon as they were arranged.
"It's hot xiaolongbao, small noodles, small noodles." The vendors were selling, Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan were close, and there were also a few people eating next to them, and those people were chatting.
One said, "Brother Tai, how much money do you have a day, and can you or not?" ”
"I'm lucky, the team of the southern patrol has followed several times, and every time I saddle up the horse and the horse in the dress of the positive big man, naturally there are two sentences to say, such as: I am in the middle of the country, the people are safe, self-sufficient, etc., I have to get a tael of silver, what about you?"
"I'm a person who can't speak, I can only perform, hey."
From the mouths of these two of them, Qiao An learned a shocking truth, a superior commander came to inspect, and before that person arrived, many dilapidated county towns and villages along the way had to be "renewed", not counting the change in the city's appearance, even everyone had to change!
The group of people who were suffering before had to be replaced, and the diners who were sitting here to eat at the moment, the caravans of the people who roamed, and even the shopkeeper who made the food were all actors, and Shen Qiaoan shuddered at the thought of this concealment.
"Perhaps, that Xia Yangji is not a bad person, in fact, he doesn't know how his people are at all." This is Shen Qiaoan's conjecture.
Li Zhongxuan also felt similar.
Before Li Zhongxuan was in the palace, one day because the imperial dining room sent an extra egg, he scolded the head of the meal fiercely, "One or two silver, how can you be so extravagant?" ”
Later, Li Zhongxuan learned after investigation that the eunuchs in the palace went to the outside wing vein to call it "palace market", as the name suggests, it is the palace to ask for things, and the eunuchs only need to give a little silver to buy a lot of things.
Who dares to do anything to them if they are bullying others? As for the penny of eggs, when they were delivered to Li Zhongxuan, they would become one or two pieces of silver.
It's incredible!
There are two sets of cards inside the palace and outside the palace, and Li Zhongxuan also knows it, but now it is the first time he has seen such a deception, Qiao An approached the person, "Brother Tai, when will that one come, shouldn't some guards be ambushed in advance along the way?" Or maybe the guards have been ambushed? ”
"Which one?" The "brother" smiled, "That one is strong in martial arts, he doesn't provoke others and others will hang high, who would dare to pick up the tiger's beard?" ”
When Qiao An heard this, she immediately understood, it turned out that Xia Yangjie was still a person with strong martial arts.
"What are you two pretending to be? If it's your first time doing this business, I advise you two to stay behind outside, and if there is no arrangement for you to talk, you two should also pay attention. The man pointed to the top of his head, Qiao An was strange, if the person who came was Xia Yangji, why did Xia Yangji have to whitewash the peace to show himself?
What is the world like, doesn't he understand in his own heart?
The two of them are good teachers, emphasizing how to perform to get more silver, etc., Qiao An nodded immediately, and Li Zhongxuan was also average.
In the afternoon, it was even more lively, at first glance it was indeed a rich place, the red lanterns that had not been hung for many years were taken out, and some children lit fireworks, and everyone was happy, but Shen Qiaoan and Li Zhongxuan were all remembering the people here.
What about them?
Where did it go?
The bustling scene lasted until noon the next day, and before that, Joan found that in this small county town, they could eat whatever they wanted, and they could play whatever they wanted, and they didn't charge for anything.
By noon on the second day, a group of soldiers rushed into the city under the sun, and the soldiers stood guard at the checkpoint, and one man was an arm's length away from one man on the main road, and then a group of people arrived in the distance.
Everyone cheered, and the atmosphere exploded for a while, because Li Zhongxuan couldn't see things, so Qiao An could only describe it to Li Zhongxuan, "Brother Zhongxuan, a group of Xuanjiawei are here." ”
This group of people wore black iron armor, the red tassels on their heads were like lit flames, and behind a group of infantry were countless horsemen, the number of horsemen was very large, and the middle of the horsemen was a man on a black horse, the man was thoughtful and clear.
When he arrived, everyone cheered enthusiastically, "General Jiang is a thousand years old, General Jiang is a thousand years old!" ”
This call, Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan were slightly shocked, how could a general be "a thousand years old", Qiao An knelt like a tsunami when he saw everyone, and he hurriedly pulled Li Zhongxuan, and the two of them half knelt in the crowd.
General Jiang had approached them, and Qiao An took a look and realized that General Jiang was a young man of about thirty years old, with a pair of compassionate eyes, looking condescendingly at everyone on horseback, but with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth.
Then the person who was performing was already close to General Jiang.
"Is the territory safe?" General Jiang asked, and Li Zhongxuan also heard General Jiang's voice, which was a smooth and almost emotional question.
His voice was very nice and vigorous, and although Li Zhongxuan could not see General Jiang's person, he could guess his appearance and outline from his voice.
"Oh, naturally it's very safe, I heard that the general is coming," he was smiling, "those bandits are all hiding, and they still shy away when they hear your name General Jiang on weekdays." ”
There's a thumbs up there.
Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan only felt extremely sick when they heard this.
There is such a thing in the world! And Qiao An also understood, it turned out that all this was arranged by the mediocre Son of Heaven, Xia Yangjie was afraid that General Jiang would see the flaws, but Qiao An was puzzled, why did he deceive General Jiang?
Moreover, it is strange that in order to deceive the eyes and ears of a general, she has to work so many actors and arrange such a meticulous thing in great detail.
"I came in from outside, and found that you had already harvested the wheat here, and it seemed that the time was not yet yet." General Jiang asked.
There is a smile: "The general doesn't know, the climate in our city is good, and the ears of wheat are all big this year, if you don't cut the wheat, you will have to break the straw, general!" Please go to the pavilion to rest, and the little old man will prepare something to eat for you. ”
There was a post station in the distance, and General Jiang entered, and everyone got up.
Qiao An saw that the person who was chatting with him before was beside him, and grinned, "Dude, we are cheating, come here outside, where are the common people?" ”
"They went to the mountain nest, and they couldn't come back until Jiang Yongdao left." This Jiang Yongdao is General Jiang's name, Qiao An heard this and continued to inquire.
This person told Qiao An that Jiang Yongdao is very powerful, if Shangyong does not have Jiang Yongdao, Shangyong is still a small vassal country, General Jiang has been fighting in the south and the north, and has worked hard for the royal family since he was thirteen years old, and now seventeen years have passed, and Jiang Yongdao has not even suffered a defeat in these seventeen years, which is really a winning general.
Qiao An has also seen powerful ones, such as General Cheng and Fengyu, but it is not uncommon for these two to lose battles, who knows that Jiang Yongdao has not even failed once.
Everyone was also in their places, and after lunch, Jiang Yongdao went to the yamen and opened the yamen's warehouse, and he was very happy to find that it was indeed full of grain.
"Are there any bandits in this realm?"
"There is a wolf that sits majestically on the green hills, and that wolf is so powerful that it bites us without us noticing." That's what Rie said.
"Kill the wolf tomorrow!"
The wolf is naturally not a wolf of nature, but a bandit thirteen wolves, Jiang Yongdao killed the thirteen wolves, did not block the news at all, and even sent a letter to the thirteen wolves.
The gist is: If you tie up your wife, children, and your people to surrender to me Jiang Yongdao, I Jiang Yongdao will open the net, if you insist on fighting against me Jiang Yongdao, I will kill you without leaving a piece of armor.
The thirteen wolves held the challenge book and looked at it, frowned, and said, "How many people are outside?" The subordinate hurriedly reported a number, it stands to reason that such a number is already very powerful, but who knows that it is a drop in the bucket compared to Jiang Yongdao's people.
Just when they were at a loss, Qiao An arrived, and since Shen Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan met the Thirteen Wolves, they knew that the Thirteen Wolves were actually not bandits, he was a good person.
But in this world, he really can't appear as a good person.
Just when the Thirteen Wolves dropped the challenge book, Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An arrived, and seeing that the Thirteen Wolves were at a loss, Qiao An said: "We have explored Jiang Yongdao's weakness, and there is a way to get out of trouble without spending a single soldier." ”
"What's the solution?" The thirteen wolves asked, and Qiao An said: "Don't worry, discuss outside at this moment, and take action tomorrow." ”
By the second day, Jiang Yongdao couldn't see the challenge book up and down Qingshan, and he didn't know whether the thirteen wolves acquiesced to the fight or the rest, and he had decided to get rid of the thirteen wolves for the local people.
Everyone crossed the mountains and soon called Qingshan, who knew that before they arrived at the cottage, they saw a group of quail-clad people, who were eating tree bark and grass roots.
When Jiang Yongdao saw this, he angrily turned his head and glanced at Li Zheng behind him, where Zheng's expression was very colorful, as if he had been whipped in the face by someone.
"Where?" Jiang Yongdao snorted, a horsewhip was already on Li Zheng's throat, and as soon as he lifted it hard, he lifted it along the horse's back.
General Jiang's strength is infinite, and he is already frightened, "General, spare your life, spare your life!" ”
Jiang Yongdao threw away the horsewhip, and Li Zheng was panting, "General, what do you want to ask?" ”
"What's going on?" Jiang Yongdao looked at the countless refugees.
Qiao An and the Thirteen Wolves and Su Rongrong were already mixed in, Shen Qiaoan expected that Jiang Yongdao would not attack the hungry people, and secretly thought that instead of letting the Thirteen Wolves escape or confronting Jiang Yongdao, it was better to use stratagems to resolve it.
"General, general, you have to be the master of the people! Everything you see is fake, they are lying to you, listen to me, General! Joan stepped out of the crowd.
A soldier hurriedly stopped Qiao An with his eyes, where did he know that the more he stopped, Qiao An's voice became louder and louder, "General, these are the people in the city, we haven't eaten for a long time, the court has never helped us, everyone is hungry." ”
That Jiang Yongdao pointed at Qiao An and motioned for Qiao An to approach, Shen Qiao An hurriedly approached and told him what happened in the county, and the situation was miserable.
"It's a fake there, it's an actor, the real Lord Lizheng is here, General, listen to what he said." Qiao An helped a half-old man to walk out, and the man said everything here with a handful of snot and tears, and Jiang Yongdao was almost unbelievable after hearing it.
Qiao An also "cried and cried", and pulled everyone to reflect the situation, the fake Li Zheng saw that the paper couldn't hold the fire, turned around and was about to flee, Qiao An grabbed the man's shoulder, "Tell me quickly, what is the specific situation, who wants you to come here to perform, and give you a few taels of silver a day?" ”
"General, it's not a secret, it's the court that wants the villain to get by, the villain thinks he can deceive the general, how do you know that the general is so smart, it's the villain who underestimates the general." The person in the show started crying again.
