On the way back, Wu Xingzong looked solemn.

A few pro-soldiers followed behind, not knowing what the general was thinking.

"General, but what did the man say to you?" a pro-soldier, a fellow villager, boldly stepped forward and asked.

"It's just a private matter. Wu Xingzong said casually.

Seeing that the general didn't mean to say it, the few people behind closed their mouths.

These pro-soldiers, who have followed Wu Xingzong for several years, can feel some of them, and the general is obviously in a dignified mood at this time.

At noon, there were not many strangers in the streets and alleys, Wu Xingzong thought about it, looked at the distance, and found that he had only walked a short way, sneered, and slowed down the horses.

"The posture of the dragon and tiger?" chewing the word silently in his heart, Wu Xingzong's face was expressionless.

“...... Don't hide it, your appearance is really the face of a noble person who is rare in a hundred years......"

“...... It has the posture of a dragon and a tiger, and it is indescribably expensive......"

“...... The clouds rushed out of the top, filled a room, and the purple gas was faintly visible, and the future was limitless......"

What this Xiangshi said made him secretly frightened.

The so-called nobleman is just that, this dragon and tiger posture is unspeakably expensive...... What person can call the posture of a dragon and a tiger, and what can be called expensive?

The appearance of the minister can clearly say that the so-called "this life is very different, rich and glorious and superb", there is no need to shy away from it, it is unspeakably expensive, it is the throne.

It's no wonder that Xiangshi wants to avoid him left and right, so that others can hear it, even if it's just nonsense, it will lead to great disaster.

But if it's true......

No, can't think any further!

Wu Xingzong's fingers tightly locked the horse's reins, the reins almost strangulated into the flesh, and a touch of coldness appeared in his eyes.

Judging from the current situation, there are not a few people who have mixed into Gunzhou, but they meet themselves in a restaurant, and they really want to cover up when they say such things.

Lying is naturally his heart can be punished, even if it is true, it is a curse for this person to stay, looked at the distance and time, and felt that it was almost over, Wu Xingzong reined in his mount and stopped on the road.

"General?" the soldiers who were following him stopped suddenly, and they all restrained their mounts.

At this time, there was no one around on the road, Wu Xingzong sneered slightly, and asked, "Do you remember that person just now?"

"The general is saying, the scholar who talked to you?"

Wu Xingzong nodded: "It's this person, his identity is really a meticulous work, trying to deceive me and sow discord, you go back and kill him!"

After a pause, he smiled cruelly: "When I went downstairs just now, I ordered a table of dishes and gave ten taels of silver, this is the severed head meal, and now it is almost used, you go back, you don't have to shy away from it, you will be publicly executed." ”

"Yes!" the soldiers promised, but they all crawled out of the pile of dead people, and it was a trivial matter to kill a small worker.

Shajia Restaurant

The shopkeeper was at the door, and when he saw the return of his own soldiers, he hurriedly greeted him, and was a little surprised, and said, "Guest officer, are you here?"

"Is that Xiangshi still there just now?"

"Yes, it's still on it!" said the shopkeeper.

These four pro-soldiers went upstairs without saying a word.

This is a private seat across the screen, in addition to where Wu Xingzong was originally located, there are a few people on the opposite side who ordered to eat and drink, and they were all a little drunk, and when they saw the four people coming up, they didn't care.

"Wait a minute, the general will reward the severed head with food, and let him use it up. "At the staircase, I could see someone in the gap of the screen, and when I saw it, this person was inside.

Wu Sui, the commander of the pro-soldiers, said with a sneer, and when the other pro-soldiers heard this, they all responded awe-inspiringly, and no one spoke.

"Do you know how much the Jia family has packed this time?" At this time, someone on the other elegant seat spoke: "Hey, the whole south wall wicker workshop!"

"Brother Shijiang, junior brother doesn't understand, why do these big families stick money for loss-making business, and besides, it's not the government's business to repair the neighborhood?" someone asked strangely.

"So you don't have a big business, let's talk about the Jia family's wicker workshop, which was broken during the siege of the city before, and now that the government has moved out, hundreds of households in the entire square are empty. ”

"The Jia family wants to build houses, repair the streets, and pay a tax to the government, which costs a lot, and it costs 5,000 taels of silver, what can be obtained?

"Seventeen shops is a lot, I calculated, according to the current price, more than three thousand taels of silver is more, it is still a loss!" said someone in confusion.

"You are confused, there is nothing wrong with this price now, but it is too peaceful, in five years and ten years, it will still be this price, and it will not be more than ten times!" Shi Jiang sneered: "The Jia family is not confused, it is calculated!"

"Moreover, the house built by the Jia family in Fangdi is not given away in vain, it is all to collect rent, a twenty-year lease, and the people who move in will pay it in twenty years, and this alone will double the income!"

"In this way, it does make money. A young man with a beard said, "There is a profit in this business, but what about the rest?"

"There are all of them, big and big profits, small and small profits, and if you wrap all the trees on a street, you can get a shop, or a wasteland outside the city, and you can make money. ”

"To make money like this, we work together and do official work. The young man with the beard was very red-eyed, and said a little confused: "However, the government is so generous?

"What's the loss, the government is a business without capital, broken workshops, burned wasteland, and a lot of other projects, all of which don't cost a penny, and use these to exchange for a large amount of money, so that the government doesn't lose money, you see, these are all built, and the government will come to collect a lot of taxes." ”

"Shhh...... The officials of this court really think about it!"

"That's why people are officials!"

This is actually Wang Hongyi's national policy, according to the normal situation, barren fields, broken neighborhoods, everything has to be paid by the government, or if the residents slowly repair, it will take ten years to recover.

Now that the government has sent these out, it will recover in a year or two, and it is still a double win, this kind of idea, if you want to eat alone, you would rather rot in your hands than take advantage of others, no matter what, you can't think of it.

This was said far away, but Wu Sui, the chief of the pro-soldier fire, didn't understand, and when he saw that it was almost used inside, he waved his hand and went up, silently for a while, staring at this Xiangshi.

This Xiangshi was startled, originally a little drunk, but when he saw his own soldiers rushing in, his face suddenly changed and he was stunned.

Wu Sui looked at it coldly and said, "Can you meet someone, have you ever met yourself today?"

Without waiting for a reply, he drank: "Take it!"

The two pro-soldiers immediately pounced on him like wolves and held him down, Wu Suige smiled, pressed him to the railing, and said, "What a good head!"

While speaking, "Huh" pulled out the long knife, the arc flashed, and only heard the sound of "poof", and the head of the Xiangshi flew out, and the blood splashed, splashing upstairs and downstairs.

Suddenly everyone was stunned, Wu Sui put away the knife, sneered, and shouted: "The government has killed the spies, you have to make a noise!"

Wu followed the murder here, and a little farther away, Wu Xingzong also met a person who was in a hurry to find him.

As soon as this person saw Wu Xingzong, he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "General Wu, the governor ordered you to go to the governor's mansion to discuss matters." ”

Twilight

The guard Zhang Yi was preparing to rest at this time.

Just came back, the destroyed city wall of the Tiger Prison Pass, at this time it was almost repaired, and if someone attacked, there was no thunderbolt, and it would be difficult to break through.

The surrender of troops has been transferred to Chenliu County and even Jinling, and things are generally completed.

However, His Majesty went to Luoyang with a large army, but he didn't hear any news in the past few days, which made him a little worried, and if there was no news tomorrow, he would send someone to investigate.

Thinking like this, there was a sudden sound of the door slamming outside.

"Who?" Zhang Yi asked.

"General, there are 100 households with thirteen divisions, ask to see the general. The soldiers outside said.

"Where are the people?"

"Let me come into the city, a group of five people, and let the entourage go down to rest and watch, and the hundred households are waiting in the small flower hall. ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he changed his clothes, followed his soldiers to the Little Flower Hall, and came to the Little Flower Hall.

"The thirteen divisions of the lower officials and the hundred households have seen General Zhang. ”

"Do you know me?" Zhang Yi said with some surprise.

"Xiaguan works in the Thirteenth Division, and as a hundred households, he has seen Master Zhang a few times from afar. Xu Shu replied, and he was no longer willing to continue the exchange, and said directly: "General, there is an urgent news from the front." ”

As soon as Zhang Yi felt a sense of foreboding in his heart, Xu Ji handed over a small sealed paper roll to Zhang Yi's hand.

Zhang Yi felt more and more uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly opened it to watch, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

Your Majesty is trapped in the suburbs of Luoyang?

Zhang Yi raised his head violently and asked gloomily, "Is this information true?"

"General, if the subordinate officials dare to cheat in this matter, the punishment of the nine clans is light, how dare the subordinate officials?"

When Zhang Yi heard this, he remembered that the news had been cut off in the past few days, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "You go down first." ”

After the hundred households went down, Zhang Yi arrived at the door, and at this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the twilight was faint, so he shouted: "Pass my order, and immediately order the generals to gather in the hall." ”

The generals were distributed in the camps of the checkpoint, and by the time they arrived in the hall in succession, it was already night.

The hall was brightly lit, and all the generals were gathered together, all dressed in armor, chatting head-to-ear, and it was very strange for the sudden summoning, when someone shouted: "The general has arrived!"

The generals hurriedly got up and saluted to greet them, and saw Zhang Yi coming up gloomily, and when he got to the top, he didn't sit, he just stood, glanced down, and said directly: "Your Majesty is trapped in the suburbs, you go back now, count the number of troops, and prepare for it, and the whole army will send troops to the king early tomorrow morning." ”

The generals were suddenly awe-inspiring, each glanced at it, and hurriedly responded: "No!"

"If it's okay, go back!" Zhang Yixian was in no mood to talk nonsense.

But at this moment, a person stepped forward: "General, the last general has something to say." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Yi had been gloomy, and when he heard this, he snorted, and glanced at it, but it was Luo Gui who was in command, and he couldn't attack for a while, and his tone was cold: "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty is trapped, we are protected by King Qin, of course, but the Tiger Prison Pass is also a big matter, with this pass, you can have smooth contact with the imperial court, if you lose it, you are really locked in Luoyang, the last general thinks that at least there must be soldiers in this pass. ”

Zhang Yi knew that this was reasonable as soon as he heard it, but His Majesty was trapped, although this proposal was reasonable, there was always some disloyalty, he thought about it for a while, looked at this person sideways, and sneered: "What you said is reasonable, then you will stay and stay at the checkpoint." ”

Luo Gui's face flashed with green energy, and he responded: "No!"
