"Have you heard that King Heng's men were robbed by a group of strongmen yesterday?"
"What have you heard? I saw it with my own eyes. Just this morning, hundreds of people were tied naked to a tree without even wearing any loincloth. That scene, tsk tsk..."
"It's really against the morals and morals!"
"What's this? I also heard that when these people came back, they all covered their butts... Hey, I didn't expect that the eldest prince's men are so good at it. Could it be that one too..."
Today, there is a lot of discussion in Fengzhou City, and you can hear people talking about something in the streets and alleys.
It was really because that piece of news was too shocking to them.
Early in the morning, a woodcutter just walked into the forest and saw a hundred people stripped naked and tied to trees. Perhaps because of the morning, some uncontrollable changes occurred in the bodies of those people...,
It feels spectacular just thinking about it.
That kind of scene, that kind of picture, whoever sees it, will probably be stuck in their minds for the rest of their lives.
Since the eldest prince came to Fengzhou, he has been arresting people and asking for crimes. Now he has done something like this again, firmly occupying the front page of Fengzhou Daily. After believing this incident, he still
It takes a long time.
When Lin Yong told Lin Wanru these things, of course they were all abridged versions.
"I don't know who this strong man is. He acts so decisively. It's really refreshing!" His face showed excitement, and then he put something on the table and said, "Miss, this is what you want."
He looked at the poetry album he had just bought from outside and asked: "Miss, is Brother Li really the most talented man in Jingguo? Were these poems and lyrics also written by him?"
Lin Wanru didn't answer. Lin Yong looked around, shook his head and walked out.
Anyway, that’s what people outside said. When he bought this poetry album, he was almost squeezed out by those older girls and younger wives. He really didn’t expect that Brother Li, a pretty boy, could be so popular with women...
Lin Yong walked to the entrance of Fanglin Garden, looked in a certain direction out of habit, and couldn't help but lick his lips.
"It's almost time to eat again..."
At this time, in a county town located on the border of Qi Guo Qingzhou, a caravan of more than a hundred people also stopped and filled up the largest restaurant in the small county town.
"That's what making money is..." Lao Fang didn't forget to sigh while chewing his elbow.
He has arrogant capital, and he gave birth to 600,000 taels of silver in one night, and anyone can be a little arrogant if he gives it to him.
There was a slight delay in time, and Bingzhou was not far from Fengzhou. They must have received the news at this time. These more than a hundred people, and so many carriages and goods, were destined not to go very fast. The original plan might have to
Change it up a little bit.
"Uncle, from here to Chongzhou, at our current speed, it may take another day and a half to arrive. If we hurry up from Fengzhou, we can arrive in one day. Therefore, we cannot go back to Chongzhou.
." Yang Liuqing took out a map, spread it on the table, pointed to a place in front of him and said.
"Is there any other way?"
Yang Liuqing nodded, scratched the map with his finger, and said: "Go west from here and bypass Chongzhou. It may take a few days, but it is safe enough."
Although they have two grandmasters and hundreds of top martial arts masters, it is not a problem to break through a city that is not heavily guarded. But they have to go back, so they still don’t want to do so many things. If they really want to do that,
I'm afraid it will inevitably lead to fatalities and injuries, so it's not cost-effective.
Li Yi looked at the map, and Yang Liuqing explained: "One day's walk west from here, we will almost reach the border of Wu State. We will go around here. This is the chaotic place at the junction of Qi State, Jing State and Wu State. From here
If you go through it, you can bypass Chongzhou, and if you walk two more days, you will reach Shuzhou."
Lao Fang asked doubtfully: "Didn't you say that place is very chaotic? I heard that there are countless bandits and bandits are rampant. Will there be any trouble?"
Yang Liuqing shook his head and said: "The mountains here are endless and there are countless bandits and robbers, but the really powerful bandits are all in the depths. Their forces are complicated and the specific situation is not that simple... In short, the ones on the periphery are just some.
They are just small thieves, no bigger than dozens of people, so they are nothing to be afraid of."
Li Yi looked at her in surprise and asked, "Are you familiar with this place?"
Yang Liuqing was startled, nodded, and said: "I knew everything when I came here, so it shouldn't be much different."
The sloppy old man on the side looked at Yang Liuqing with a meaningful look, spit out the chicken bones in his mouth, and said: "This girl is right. Although the place is a bit messy, as long as you don't go deep, you can't encounter it.
Those hard bones won't be a big problem."
Even the sloppy old man said it was difficult to chew. It seemed that the place was indeed not easy. Li Yi looked at the map carefully. This time, it was only on the periphery of the route. There should be no problem. He nodded and said, "Let's go then.
Here it is.”
…
…
Shuzhou, Shuwangfu.
The King of Shu paced anxiously in the hall, his face uncertain, until there were footsteps outside the hall, and before the person who came in could say anything, he immediately asked: "How is it? Is there any news over there?"
The man bowed and said, "Your Highness, I have already confirmed from the people in the Secret Service that they have indeed found Li County Marquis in Qi State, and he will be back soon."
boom!
"Sure enough, we are in Qi!" King Shu punched the table and squeezed out a few words through his teeth.
In the past few days, he has mobilized almost all the government offices in Shuzhou, and even sent out the personal guards of the Prince of Shu. In order to find him, I don’t know how much effort he expended. Unexpectedly, the other party was not in Jingguo at all.
Shuzhou.
Doesn’t it mean that all his hard work is in vain?
Thinking of this, King Shu immediately felt like he was being teased.
One person thought for a while and said tentatively: "Your Highness, they will eventually return to Shuzhou, why don't we..."
"Shuzhou has now been taken over by people from the Secret Service." Among the crowd, Jiang Zian glanced at the man and said, "General Fan thought like you did at first, but now grass can grow on his grave."
Thinking of something, the man stopped talking and his face immediately turned pale.
Those people from the Secret Service who came from Kyoto had to take over the military power on the first day they came to Shuzhou. The sky in Shuzhou was high and the emperor was far away. The orders from Kyoto no longer had much effect here. It was the same in the past.
But that day, a guard general said that the Secret Service's request was unreasonable and he would not hand over power even if he died.
So he really died.
He had just been buried, and soon grass would grow on his grave.
The King of Shu did not speak, but the veins on his forehead were beating uncontrollably.
As the eldest prince, when he was in Kyoto, he was suppressed every step he took, and was even beaten in front of all the civil and military officials.
Now that he has arrived in Shuzhou, he still cannot be the master of his own fiefdom. This is the most depressing thing in his heart.
The atmosphere in the palace was a bit depressing. At this time, another servant of the palace came in from outside and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Fang Yongfang wants to see you."
The King of Shu nodded and said, "Let him come in."
