Hearing this, Lin Mao was in tears, and the Zhang family hid his face and sobbed, the official family, the businessman, the world, this irresistible wind has destroyed the Lin family to such an extent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

stayed at the Lin family for most of the day, and it wasn't until the sun went down that Li Hu and Zhao Yuan left together.

On the way, Zhao Yuan was resentful and depressed, and punched the crooked willow on the side of the road, and the punch was so strong that it almost broke the crooked willow with the thickness of the tea bowl. Li Hu snorted from his nose and said, "I said Brother Yuan, the way of the world is like this, what can you do if you break the tree?" ”

"I just don't think it's fair!" Zhao Yuan gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "When my father had an accident, the miscellaneous pieces of the county government did not give justice, and now Ah Xiu is forced to this point by the world, why do you say it?" ”

"What's the reason, isn't it just that the emperor can't see our poor mountain village in his eyes..."

Li Hu has not been in a good mood recently, so he rushed out of his words. Thinking that they are all at the age of marriage, Li Hu Laozi brought him a matchmaker a year ago, it was a girl from the side village, that girl was just the daughter of a private school master, but she also disliked the Li family's business name, but she didn't know that the private school master was already poor, and this one daughter was left to take out!

Thinking of this, Li Hu shook his fat head and said to Zhao Yuan: "Brother Yuan, don't think about it, if this is our fate, we will only obey our fate, but... It's a pity, Brother Xiu..."

When the words fell, Li Hu sighed and left, leaving Zhao Yuan alone with his eyes open and suppressed like a wolf...

Lincheng County Guard, County Guard Yao Qisheng looked at the official document in front of him, his eyebrows were locked like a river, and his expression was like a layer of thick clouds covering his body, which made people breathless.

"My lord, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Hailong, the county guard, asked cautiously, for fear that the word would not be right, so he angered Yao Qisheng, Yao Qisheng put down the official document, supported the desk with one hand, pressed the sideburns with the other, and said with mixed thoughts: "How can you do this?" At this time, it is necessary to stir up public resentment! ”

Yu Hailong rolled his eyebrows, poured a cup of hot tea for Yao Qisheng, and answered: "My lord, is it about the green seedling tax system at the beginning of the year?" ”

"If that's the case, I'm really not so anxious!"

Yao Qisheng pushed away the teacup handed by Yu Hailong, got up and paced in the room: "In the early spring, Your Majesty suddenly issued an edict to double this year's tax year, and now that autumn is coming, the grain harvest has been counted, and there is too much difference from the edict, so what should I do?" Is it necessary to collect the rations of the people? Wouldn't that be a riot for the people! ”

Yu Hailong pondered, after a while, he came to the door, looked left and right for three minutes, and closed the hall door after making sure that there was no one.

"What are you doing? If you have something to say, why be so sneaky! ”

Yu Hailong first said for forgiveness from the lord, and then the sixty-year-old mansion man whispered closely: "My lord, regarding the edict of the grain and silver money in the treasury for the year of the omen, the officials dare to say a word, we don't have to care!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yao Qisheng was immediately angry, and Yu Hailong hurriedly signaled: "Don't be angry, don't be angry!" The lower official is just hearsay, if the adult really doesn't want to hear it, the lower official just doesn't say it! ”

Yao Qisheng frowned, stared at Yu Hailong for a moment, and then said, "Say it, you old thing!" ”

Yu Hailong nodded with his hand: "My lord, our northern territory is far away from the central capital, and we don't know much about some situations, but in the past few years, the rumors of the friction between the three princes can't help but feel it!" ”

"Go on!"

"I want His Majesty the Emperor to be in the prime of life, expand the territory, I am prosperous in Daxia, but now His Majesty is getting weaker, and the princes are becoming more and more courageous, although the King of Qi is not famous for the prince, but he has participated in state affairs for many years, and has unshakable strength in the four cities of the capital, as for the other three kings, the King of Qin is brave, and the territory of the west of the river is sealed, the King of Yan is elegant and stopped, the scholars are supreme, and Jiangnan is admired by all, although the King of Shu is young, but his biological mother is His Majesty the Emperor's concubine, and the famous teacher is the imperial master, so a big chess, How can His Royal Highness King Qi, who is at the top of the list, feel at ease? My lord, haven't you noticed that His Majesty the Emperor has not issued an edict for nearly half a year, all the edicts are from Zhongshu Pavilion, and who is under the control of Zhongshu Pavilion, it is difficult to say, whether it is His Majesty himself, or His Royal Highness the King of Qi, we have no way of knowing..."

Although Yu Hailong didn't say it thoroughly, with Yao Qisheng's sense of officialdom, he had already smelled the turbulent waves on the eve of the storm, and suddenly a spiritual light crossed Yao Qisheng's expression, and he immediately frowned and said, "Yu Hailong, what do you want to say?" ”

"My lord, Xia Guan wants to say, this time the Zhongdu is levied, adults don't have to be so anxious to be ordered, the current situation is unknown, such a levy, there must be a grievance against the people, besides, the northern Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from the central capital, although it is not the fief of the King of Qin, but it is only a few hundred miles away from the Hexi realm of the King of Qin, and the lower official said this... Adults should pay attention to the deep meaning! ”

At this time, Yao Qisheng has completely sunk under the dark clouds of Zhongdu, could it be that the powerful and prosperous Great Xia is really going to fall into turmoil because of the position of the crown prince? He didn't dare to imagine, and he didn't want to imagine, he just wanted to be in peace and stability as the guard of Lincheng County, a remote place, and work hard for the benefit of the people, but if the clouds came, how could he avoid it?

The only place for caravans to go north from Lincheng - Beizhen Fort.

For several months, the horses of the Lincheng Mansion and the Sentinel Cavalry Battalion were all poked in the fort like an awl, which could suffocate the supervision camp and others, for several months, although the situation on the grassland continued to deteriorate, and the border towns came from time to time the news that the Juntun Fort was attacked, but those merchants who did not know whether they were alive or dead still continued to go north under the order of the official family to ban the trading houses, and there were even a lot of miscellaneous pieces that sold iron tools, which made Ma Quan hateful, everyone knew that the grassland people lacked iron tools, and these merchants dared to sell iron to the north, To provide raw materials for those barbarian madmen to build armor blades, as long as they are caught, Ma Quan does not need to inform the Lincheng County Guard and the Mansion and the Imperial Army Division, and he will be directly slashed with a knife.

In this way, the big financial road of the supervision camp was cut off, and he used to inspect it, and those merchants gave him some benefits, and he meant it, but Ma Quan, this guy, didn't get into the oil and salt, so he didn't listen to his words, and he was so sleek that he was like two people at the beginning, so that more than a dozen headless ghosts were buried in the forest outside the Beizhen Fort.

Early this morning, Ma Quan took more than a dozen horses to gallop straight to the north of the trade road, about to the Bei'an realm, Ma Quan and the rest of the horses rested in the forest, before drinking saliva, a horse roar came from two miles away, which made Ma Quan stunned, and the others were also surprised.
