Chapter 261 Go dig coal

Hetao.

In an unknown small tribe, a group of Zhao Feiqi sat around the stove, holding a large pot in which large chunks of beef and mutton were cooked. The aroma was overflowing. You might not be able to eat beef once in a lifetime in the Central Plains.

, now they eat it every day.

"What are you looking at? I'll knock your eyes out if I look at you again." Li Qian glared at the barbarians fiercely. He knew very well that these barbarians were all bullies who were afraid of the strong and could not give him any good looks. He could only scare them from time to time and kill a few.

Only individuals and this group of people can listen to you.

The barbarians around were so frightened that they quickly lowered their heads, remained silent, and did not even dare to breathe.

Their entire tribe adds up to less than 10,000 people, and there are not as many adult men as Zhao Feiqi, let alone their overall strength. If ten people combined, they are no match for Zhao Feiqi.

Facing Zhao Feiqi, they did not dare to have any thoughts of resistance.

"Don't worry, we won't kill you. Now that I have eaten your flesh, I owe you a favor. So not only will we not kill you, we will also find you a job that will provide you with food and shelter.

Although it’s a bit more difficult and tiring, it definitely has a better future than grazing on the grassland.”

Yan Ju pointed at the unknown tribal leader with his bright sword and said.

"Please general, please let us go. We are just a small tribe. We have nothing but some cattle and sheep. We all respect the general. I just ask the general to spare our lives." The leader of the Hu people knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

This group of bandits not only stole their cattle and sheep, but also their people.

"Let you go? I didn't do anything to you, so how can I let you go? Let me ask you, are these cattle and sheep voluntarily given to us by you?" Yan Ju looked at the leader of the Hu people, with an extraordinary strong look.

His momentum suddenly pressed towards the opponent.

"Yes...yes..." The Hu leader nodded repeatedly without any hesitation.

"That's okay, we Zhao people repay our kindness. If we eat your meat, you won't have anything to eat. If you don't have anything to eat, you will starve to death. How can we watch you starve to death! Don't worry,

As long as you follow us and don't say anything else, I will at least ensure that you will not die of hunger." Yan Ju patted the Hu leader on the shoulder with the back of his knife and said pleasantly.

The leader of the Hu people collapsed to the ground in fear and did not dare to say a word.

"General, when are we going back?" Huo put a large piece of beef into his mouth, pulled the Hu leader's clothes and wiped the oil stains on his hands, and asked.

"Everyone, eat more, and after finishing this meal, we will move this group of people to Jiuyuan. It snowed so heavily, and these barbarians suffered heavy losses. I am afraid they will plunder next year. We have to go back to remind them."

." Yan Ju stood up and said loudly.



"Tell me, who asked you to drag Pingyang Jun's son into the water." In prison, Liu Ping found Wang Ti.

"... Sir, Shangguan, I accidentally heard that Lord Pingyang's son is serving as the county magistrate in Woyang, so I want to get to know Lord Pingyang through him, and it is definitely not to drag him into trouble." Wang Ti said quickly.

At this time, Wang Ti no longer had the calmness of the past. He suddenly realized that he seemed to be involved in a conspiracy, and the price was definitely not something he could accept.

"Want to get to know Lord Pingyang through him? Haha, with your identity, it seems that you don't need to use this method to get to know Zhao Tang." Liu Ping stared at Wang Ti with two sharp eyes that penetrated his heart.

.

Although Wang Ti is only the mine director, he is also an official. His rank is only slightly lower than that of the county magistrate. He can still meet with the county magistrate if he wants to.

"Shangguan didn't know something. That Zhao Tang... the county magistrate usually stayed at home and didn't even go to the county government office. The guilty minister went to look for him several times but never saw him once. Even when he went to visit his home, he didn't see him.

"Later, the guilty minister accidentally learned that Lord Pingyang had reduced the monthly payment to Zhao Tang, and his subordinates had an idea and sent 50,000 yuan, and then they were able to see him." Wang Ti said.

"Wait... I found out by accident? How did you find out by accident?" Liu Ping's heart moved.

"The guilty minister went to visit Zhao Tang's home. When he was leaving, he overheard the comments of his servants." Wang Ti said.

"Servant? Which servant do you remember?" Liu Ping said quickly.

"That's a servant of Zhao Tang's family. I've never even met him, so how can I remember him?" Wang Ti said with a grimace.

Liu Ping remained silent, his intuition telling him that the clue lay in that servant.

But as far as he knew, Lord Pingyang sent more than a hundred servants to his son, and it was impossible to check them one by one.

Moreover, although the government prohibits servants from talking about the master, in fact this situation is very common, and it cannot be judged that there is a problem with his identity. It may also be a coincidence in time, and Wang Ti happened to hear it.

"So... why did Pingyang Jun reduce the monthly payment for his son?" Liu Ping suddenly thought of a question.

After more than 20 years of maintenance, the monthly fee has not been reduced. It cannot be reduced for no reason.

Time goes back to three days ago, Pingyuan Jun's Mansion.

"Why did my brother suddenly reduce the amount of money he paid to his nephew?" Zhao Sheng poured a glass of wine for Zhao Bao.

"The king just ascended the throne a few months ago. I was afraid that the second son would...offend the king, so I reduced his salary in the hope that he would gradually become independent. I didn't expect that it would lead to the current result." Zhao Bao sighed.

One breath.

He never expected that a well-intentioned reduction of the regular money would be seized by someone with good intentions to seduce his son to be greedy for money.

Zhao Sheng frowned. The source turned out to be Zhao Kuo. In this case, this matter was probably a coincidence.

"Did you think of it alone, or did someone remind you?" Zhao Sheng asked.

"This happened a few months ago, how can I remember it clearly?" Zhao Bao said in embarrassment.

"I will intercede with the king on your behalf. If there is no one pushing behind it, the king will probably not deal with it harshly." Zhao Sheng comforted.

"Thank you so much, fourth brother."



"That is to say...even he himself doesn't know that he is being used?" Zhao Kuo asked in a deep voice.

"That should be the case. According to my subordinates... it is unlikely that Wang Ti is lying." Liu Ping nodded, "Furthermore, my subordinates checked his records over the past year and found no signs of collusion with outsiders. He should

I'm just eager to get promoted and want to take shortcuts."

"If you want to be promoted, you must make political achievements. Don't rely on some crooked ways. Since he committed a crime because of coal, then send him to the Shangdang Coal Mine to dig coal. Let him feel what it is like to dig coal every day." Zhao Kuo ordered.

road.

"Then...Pingyang Jun's son..." Liu Ping asked cautiously.

"Go dig coal with Wang Ti and come out when you have been digging for five years. Tell this order to the world." Zhao Kuo waved his hand.

"promise."



An unknown place in the Kingdom of Zhao.

"Sir, the verdict has been passed. The son of Lord Pingyang will be sent to the Shangdang Coal Mine to dig coal, and he will be released in five years." A servant opened the door and walked in, saying respectfully.

"Where is Zhao Bao?" the old man asked.

"Zhao Bao doesn't seem to have any reaction," the servant said.

"Haha, find a way to make his son disappear into the coal mine." The old man sneered twice. "Damn Li Mu, if he hadn't interrupted the plan, Zhao Bao would never have been able to escape from my grasp."

"promise."

"I want to see if you can still be so upright and upright when your sons die in the mines." The old man looked in the direction of Handan and said coldly.
