Chapter 270 270: I believe Lord Shen [three thousand]
But the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.
Yan An didn't expect that the greatest resistance she encountered was not from Zheng Qiao, but from the courtiers around her, all kinds of obstruction.
The reason given is even more laughable——
Only those who have merit will be rewarded!
It is also said that the common people do not think about farming, and are lazy and slack, resulting in a sharp drop in harvest and insufficient payment of land taxes. At this moment, they have no food to survive the winter. If you really think about it, they are still guilty of not doing an inch of merit! The lord of the country did not care about them, but Yan An actually wanted to give these lazy things food for the winter? So what do those hard-working, self-sufficient people think?
"If you have meritorious deeds and don't reward them, you don't persuade them to do good, and if you don't punish them, you don't fear evil!" Hearing Yan An's proposal, some courtiers came out, and from the corner of the eye carefully looked at Zheng Qiao's face. Seeing that Zheng Qiao was not unhappy, he Continue to plausibly say, "The lazy and untouchable people have no merits and deeds, and what you do will only encourage their evil deeds! The next year's spring plowing, hard-working people will also neglect farming because of this!"
He paused: "This is what will cause endless trouble!"
Yan An was almost livid with anger.
Can this kind of nonsense be brought up?
How is it different from "why not eat minced meat"?
Farm when you are hungry?
No food in hand means that the people are lax in farming?
It gives them good land to grow!
Yan An looked at the sanctimonious faces in front of him, only felt the illusion of stomach cramps, and almost vomited.
If he hadn’t been cultivating himself and setting a good example for Zheng Qiao, he would be able to raise his sword and cut this person’s tongue right now!
This tongue can't speak human words, so give it up!
Yan Anxin is like a mirror, and he is sure that there is a problem with the accounts of the grain depot. Otherwise, why would this group of people tacitly agree to stop him?
Drive the people to a dead end, can they still have a way out?
This one—
The courtiers have their own ideas.
Some know, but knowing doesn't mean they care.
The so-called common people are nothing more than a group of ants eating mud. No matter how noisy they are, they can't threaten themselves.
But the account problem was exposed, and Zheng Qiao could prevent them from seeing the sun tomorrow in minutes! Toes want to know what to do! Those untouchables die as soon as they die, anyway, life is cheap and worthless.
Yan An's expression turned cold.
The eyebrows and eyes with murderous intent are somewhat similar to Zheng Qiao.
Yan Xingning insisted on his own opinion.
The courtiers with ghosts in their hearts came out and expressed their opinions. They criticized or ridiculed the banquet, and each of them quarreled until their faces were red and their necks were thick. Zheng Qiao sat at the top with a lazy and comfortable expression, as if watching a wonderful but boring monkey show after watching too much.
How could he not know that the courtiers have ghosts?
Knew, but indulged.
Zheng Qiao was able to achieve today, defeated the sons of the old lord of the Geng Kingdom, and ascended to the position of lord. Apart from joining forces with the Queen Mother, he also used this method to recruit talents and benefit his subordinates. These people are leeches countless times more greedy than him, and they will obediently work for him and die for him only after they have sucked enough blood.
Yan’an’s various reform plans, Zheng Qiao has carefully reviewed them, and each of them is beneficial to the country and the people, but it is only unfavorable to them.
Not only unfavorable but also harmful, damage their foundation and mobilize their income. May I ask who doesn't hate him?
Yan'an also wanted to clean up the atmosphere, get rid of these courtiers, and persuade Zheng Qiao to stay away from treacherous villains and get closer to Zhongliang.
Looking at Yan An who was almost isolated, Zheng Qiao sneered in his heart—his senior brother was taught to be too naive and simple by his teacher, and he didn't know the greed and evil of human beings. Employers don't look at character or talent, they only look at what that person can do for Zheng Qiao.
Going on and making this group of courtiers angry, Zheng Qiao is not at all surprised that one day he will receive bad news from this senior brother, such as drowning in a well in the middle of the night, falling into the water, being killed by a burglar... In short, he died of an "accident" !
Zheng Qiao saw that the quarrel was about the same, interrupted with a speech, and turned the topic to the alliance army who repelled the rebels in Sibao County—Guoxi was born, and he has been sending people to pay attention to the battle situation there. To be honest, King Zhu's soldiers and horses still exceeded his expectations.
Especially that fierce general Gong Xiqiu.
Rao Zheng Qiao is also a little jealous, but it's just jealous, as long as King Xi doesn't get the imperial seal, he has nothing to fear.
so-
Who owns the imperial seal that suddenly appeared? ,
Where is it hidden?
For peace of mind, he decided to meet the mob of the so-called Allied Army. If any of these people can threaten him, he will be slaughtered! The leader is Wu Xian, followed by Gu Ren.
After that, Zheng Qiao didn't care to pay attention.
Sweeping around, but found no suspicious aura from them, Zheng Qiao felt a little disappointed, but still cheered up.
According to the military merits, rewards should be rewarded.
Wu Xian made the first contribution, Gu Ren took the second place, and the others took the second place. Although there was no "cracking the earth to seal the king" that everyone expected, each of them was promoted to a noble and generously rewarded, so it was not a waste of time. Some people wondered, so easy to talk, is this still Zheng Qiao?
At this time, Gu Ren came out to recommend Shen Tang as the governor of Heyin County—it was a county, but because there were many small countries in the northwest mainland, each country was divided up, and the overall area was not large.
It's just that the names are divided into details, and the names sound very bluffing.
He Yin is really a small place.
In addition to Gu Ren, several other people also made recommendations. Only Wu Xian didn't move, not only didn't move, but also stared wide-eyed, with a shocked face that was stabbed in the back on the spot, his heart was full of "kind greetings" to Gu Ren, and he didn't understand what he was going to do!
He Yin "rented" to Shen Tang for free.
Gu Ren recommends Shen Tang as the Governor of Heyin?
Then borrow a fart from yourself!
However, Zheng Qiao was on top, even if he was full of greetings, he could only hold back, making his face ugly.
Zheng Qiao frowned slightly: "Shen Tang? Is this person not here?"
It is said that this person was able to fight hundreds of rounds with Gong Xiqiu, the 15th-rank young master, and he was also a bad guy. He was so poor that he took in more than 1,800 refugees. Another thousand people were borrowed from Wu Xian, and they went to Heyin slowly.
Zheng Qiao received the news and thought the information was wrong.
How did Shen Tang get back and forth with the 15th grade young master? Later, I learned that Gong Xiqiu and Shen Tang had a personal relationship, and they communicated frequently on the battlefield, so I'm afraid it was a match-fixing match. Coupled with the surname of Gong Xiqiu, it is indeed possible to release the king of the puddle.
Zheng Qiao understood.
Shen Tang is capable, but not as terrifying as rumors from the outside world. In addition, he is a good-natured man with a bad heart. With more than 1,800 old and weak women and children holding him back, Zheng Qiao didn't show much vigilance. But - it's still worth asking.
Gu Ren's answer was similar to what he thought - the reason why Shen Tang didn't come was purely because it was difficult to leave with more than 1,800 people. These people couldn't keep up with the speed of the army, and they wanted to catch up with the next year's spring plowing. If you want to go, go to Heyin first.
Zheng Qiao glanced at Wu Xian's ugly face.
Allowed!
Although the alliance army is a mob in his eyes, if there are too many ants gathered together, it will hurt to bite. Just looking at Wu Xian's out-of-control expression management, he knew that he probably didn't know about it.
hehe-
Zheng Qiao praised a few words and ordered a banquet.
Yan An was particularly concerned about Shen Tang's absence.
"This person may be a serious problem."
Zheng Qiao sneered: "Big trouble? Because you didn't come?"
Yan An frowned and said, "If there are other circumstances, it doesn't matter if you come or not, but Xiaocheng has a national seal and disappears inexplicably. If you don't come for an excuse, then it's suspicious. This son has taken in more than 1,800 old and weak women and children. For mercy, or for something else?"
It may also be using these refugees as an excuse.
Zheng Qiao's handsome and feminine face showed a little sarcasm: "Brother, this twelve-year-old boy got the imperial seal?"
Yan An said: "It's not impossible."
Zheng Qiao smiled.
He laughed at Yan An who didn't understand Guoxi.
Yan'an is worried about Zheng Qiao's conceit.
No matter what, Shen Tang's title is settled.
Except for the leader Wu Xian, no one was injured!
Bang bang bang bang, Wu Xian slapped the desk table loudly, gave up years of self-cultivation, and roared with anger: "Gu Ziyi, really hateful! He returned his favor, why cut me off?"
Qin Li was not surprised when he heard the news, and even thought it should be so—there is an "evil conspiracy" under Shen Tang's tent, Qi Yuanliang, who is good at backstabbing or something!
He said: "It may not be that Gu Ziyi is obstructing it."
Wu Xian said angrily: "Who else could it be?"
Qin Li: "Pray for Yuanliang."
It must be Qi Yuanliang's ghost idea!
While talking about "renting" He Yin, and cheating people from Wu Xian, he colluded with Gu Ren to recommend Shen Tang as the governor of He Yin. Turning around, Wu Xian questioned, Shen Tang could push two-five-six and refuse to admit it!
Wu Xian can only suffer from being dumb.
Since it was recommended by Gu Ren, Shen Tang also "doesn't know", and don't expect Shen Tang to move out when the "lease period" is up.
Wu Xian smacked carefully, waved his hands again and again and said, "No, no, no, this must be a good thing Gu Ren did!"
He believes in Master Shen's character!
Qin Li: "..."
My protagonist doesn't understand Qi Yuanliang!
A few days later, in the territory of Heyin, a certain bandit village.
With a wave of sword light, the head was lifted up by the blood flow, and then rolled to the ground with a grunt. The young man sent the blood-stained long sword into the chests of several other people with his backhand. As the corpses fell to the ground, the village fell into silence.
"Who else is not convinced?"
"Kill this little girl to avenge the boss!"
A burly man with a scarred face came up with a knife.
Before getting close, the boy cut off both arms with two swords.
The body of the strong man fell forward following the inertia, and hit the young sword's edge accurately. The sword cut through the iron like mud, and it cut through the strong man's neck smoothly without any blockage. Stepping on the warm blood under his feet, the young man sneered, "Is there anyone who refuses to accept it?"
A group of bandits saw two wars.
Some even swallowed nervously and loudly.
From the mountainside to the bandit village, there were corpses and blood all the way. This handsome young man was killed all the way up. A group of brothers rushed up without even looking at him. Killed all the way to the main hall of the bandit village and beheaded the bandit leader.
"I allow you to say 'dissatisfaction' with me now, and I will give you a happy death. If you submit to me and then say 'dissatisfaction', the end will be worse than death!" The young man raised his chin slightly. Although he is not tall, his eyes are condescending.
"Oh? Nobody? That's good!"
At this time, among the bandits and robbers, there was a face of Zhang Sheng, who suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "The master!"
"The master!"
"The master!"
The others who were dumbfounded hesitated for a while.
also raised their arms and shouted "Big Master"!
The sound from the rustling at the beginning to the last one, it was deafening, resounding throughout the bandit village.
