Chapter 573: Green-Eyed General
"Then give you three more days. In three days' time, I will hear all the information about the Peony Sect and the people involved in Beijing. β
Ruan Di raised his eyes, glanced around, and fixed his gaze on the father and son:
"I have a way to bring you back from the hell of Gu worms, and I also have a way to make your life worse than death!"
After Ruan Di finished speaking, he raised his feet to leave.
Thank you for your understanding, Zhang Yi is grateful. Adults are bored on weekdays, so why not read this historical biography about Soochow? β
Zhang Yi's tepid voice came from behind her, but Ruan Di heard a hint of threat.
"What does that mean?"
"Lingbi green eyes, Dongwu Daqiao. Lord Ruan, please go back, I won't send it here. β
Ruan Di was confused, she was engaged in makeup in her previous life, and her memory of history only stayed in the content of history books in high school. Besides, it's so old that I can't remember the contents of the book clearly.
"Soochow Da Qiao, I know, after all, I am from Jiangnan. What are Lingbi Green Eyes? Ruan Di muttered as she walked, turned her head and saw Zhiying next to her, so she asked her, but she also shook her head, only saying that she didn't know much about ancient books.
Ruan Di could only go to Zhang's study to look for it, but she found nothing in the past two days, she and Zhiying's Zhang Xianling's study were searched, but no relevant records were found; Ruan Di later went to the countryside to ask those old people, and finally knew something.
This Lingbi green eyes is worthy of being a general who occupies Lingbi as the king, because his eyes are green, and everyone calls him the green-eyed general.
This green-eyed general was a groom in the Qiao family of Dongwu back then, because he fell in love with Da Qiao, the daughter of the head of the family, the two fell in love for a long time, so they eloped.
Later, when the war broke out, the Qiao family of Dongwu was in a hurry, and the green-eyed general led an army of 20,000 to defeat the enemy. Today, the emperor canonized him as the king of Huaiyin and officially obtained the fief Lingbi.
After listening to this, Ruan Di only felt a little puzzled.
So why did Zhang Yi say this to her? Could it be that he wants to rebel?
The more Ruan Di thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she had no intention of resting when she returned to Zhang's mansion, so she just sat in the lamp and pondered.
Zhiying also became more and more hopeless about the fact that Jingzhong sent people to relieve the siege, and the master and servant sat quietly in the room, completely unaware of the loss of time.
Twilight fell, but the stars shifted again, ushering in a new day - the three days had passed, and Zhang Yi's father and son did not move at all.
Ruan Di was about to get up and go out, but the door was suddenly opened, and Zhang Yi walked in.
Ruan Di's heart was about to reach his throat - Zhang Yi was wearing a long sword!
This is nothing short of blatant provocation and offense.
Ruan Di raised his head, and the despair in his heart increased a little more. She looked around, but she didn't see Zhiying, and was about to open her mouth to findβ
"Madame!"
Zhiying's hair was scattered, and the long sword he carried with him was gone, so he was tied up by five flowers at this time and twisted to Ruan Di.
"Zhang Yi, what do you want!"
Ruan Di saw Zhiying's aggrieved and anxious appearance, and immediately became furious. But he hated himself and could only yell, which was useless.
"I don't want to do anything. Presumably, the matter of the Green-eyed General Ruan Tingshi has already been understood! I, Zhang Yi, also want to make a great career in this Dongwu. Today, you two have come to the door, just in time to pay tribute to my sword. β
The smile on that righteous face, but the words that came out made Ruan Di and Zhiying feel cold down their spines.
"Take care of them, tomorrow we will start building the dam in Changping, and by the way, we will use them to sacrifice to the heavens, as an early congratulatory gift for my unification of Eastern Wu!"
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he stepped out of the door.
"Your Excellency is wise!"
"Lord Li will definitely be impressed with your adult this time!"
The door "creaked", as if it was locked from the outside, and the compliments of Zhang Yi's subordinates were faintly heard outside.
Who is Master Lee? This seems to be a new figure. Ruan Di was thinking when she heard the sound of Zhiying twisting the rope on the ground, and she hurriedly ran over to untie it for her.
"Madam, are we really trapped in Soochow?" Zhiying asked tentatively.
Ruan Di didn't answer, and turned her head to look at her, but saw that Zhiying's face was blue and white, bloodless, and her eyes were gray, and she was already dead.
Ruan Di had some expectations in her heart, she had a hunch that she would not die in Soochow, but she couldn't tell why.
"My lord......" Zhang Yi sat on a carved chair in the hall, his eyes closed.
"It's still called an adult? It's the king of Changping! β
One of his subordinates was about to speak, but the other interrupted him very doggedly and corrected him with a flattering face.
"His Royal Highness the King of Changping, Lord Li in Jingzhong has received news, asking you to kill Ruan Di and the others, and don't build a dam yet."
With a "bang", Zhang Yi slapped the table suddenly, and the fine dust suddenly floated in the air.
"Don't build dams? It's early spring, and it's a good time to build. If you wait, you will have to wait until after the autumn harvest. If the dam is not built, most of the fields in Soochow will not be irrigated. If this continues, there will be a famine year in Soochow! β
He paused, looked at the person who came down to deliver the letter, and said in a deep voice: "Go back and tell Master Li that I will do it myself tomorrow between Ruan Di and the others." As for the dam, I will also personally supervise the construction. I, Zhang Yi, don't need a ruin-like Soochow! β
The subordinate was still stunned, as if he suspected that he had misheard, and suddenly felt two sharp eyes on him, and his heart was suddenly frightened.
I didn't dare to stay longer, so I went back to Beijing overnight.
The night was already deep, and the spring air was warm and sleepy.
Tonight, Zhang Yi tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He thought about the efforts he had made over the past few days, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but ripple with a pair of small dimples.
This flood in Soochow was indeed deliberately done by him.
Since he heard the story of General Lingbi with green eyes in the mouth of a miscellaneous servant in the mansion a few years ago, he has been full of conquest for Eastern Wu.
He wants to be like those green eyes, become famous in a fight, and write into the history and biography of Soochow from then on, even if it is a heroic role.
Once when he went out with his father Zhang Xianling, he met someone from the Peony Sect by chance, so he tried his best to climb up from the bottom, and finally was caught by Master Li at a glance and became a member of his disciple.
It was also a mission outing, and he found that his younger brother ** turned out to be the altar master of the Peony Sect headquarters, and he had been in contact with the Peony Sect for a long time. He had suspicion in his heart, afraid that ** would rob Dongwu with him, and even more afraid that ** and the people of the Peony Sect would destroy Dongwu.
He lurked under Lord Li for many years, and the people of the Peony Sect changed one by one, and he finally gained the trust of Lord Li and let him control this area as Lord Li's "hand" in Soochow.
Zhang Yi deliberated, and finally damaged the dam in Changping without a trace, and then sent a message to the imperial court, hoping that the imperial court would transport grain, grass and silver money to build the dam.
In the past few months, he has used the money and grain given by the imperial court to engage in extravagance and waste.
