There is Always a System Trying To Bind Me - Chapter 109
Xu Qingyang knows that Xu Wencheng’s folly is not so much the emperor, but rather the people of this country.
As long as he recognizes that the emperor is not the emperor he thinks can bring a good life to the people, then Xu Qingyang will not be afraid that Xu Wencheng will hold him back in the future.
Rongcheng.
Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao accompanied Chen Shoubei through the military camp, and they came to the martial arts field in the military camp.
Li Mu, the defender of Rongcheng, was mobilizing at this time. The second wave of the Huns had arrived at the gate of Rongcheng, and issued a book of war, agreeing that the two armies would fight in three days.
It’s a pity that the soldiers were a little silent today, and only occasionally followed General Li Mu to shout a few words of morale.
Li Mu was very sad when he saw this scene in the Yanwu Hall, but he was helpless.
Most of the grains sent by the imperial court were rotten, and the rest of the grains were all coarse grains, the kind that could make one’s throat squeak when eaten.
Because he didn’t know when the next food would arrive, he had to control the daily food intake of the soldiers.
This also led to the fact that this group of soldiers could not have enough to eat on weekdays, and now where is the morale at all?
Chen Shoubei watched in a hurry.
“That group of worms, there is no food, and the soldiers can’t get enough to eat. How can we fight them?”
Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao glanced at each other, then Cheng Xiao stepped forward and said, “Sir, I went to Yaocheng to collect supplies, and I heard from the officials of Yaocheng that the king’s servant is now Still staying in Yaocheng.”
Yaocheng is a city behind Rongcheng. Most of the food and grass that the imperial court escorted to the front line was first transported here, and then transported to the front line by the soldiers of Rongcheng.
Chen Shoubei stopped, his sharp eyes fell on Cheng Xiao’s face, “What do you mean?”
Cheng Xiao’s face showed a bit of resentment, “The battle is imminent, but our soldiers can’t even eat enough to eat, how much chance will they have to win? But these dog officials Taking our army salaries and food in exchange for food and grass in the rear happily, why is this!”
You must know that our army was established by Lord Xu Shilang at the beginning, and she will definitely not let this matter go unnoticed.”
He handed the book directly to the emperor, but told Xu Wencheng about it and asked him to report it on his behalf.
“Your Excellency,” Xu Qingyang said suddenly: “You may not know yet, Xu Shilang has already reported this to the emperor, but the emperor did not want to believe what we said, and he This matter was handed over to Yu Xiang to investigate.”
Chen Shoujie’s eyes widened in disbelief, “How is this possible.”
Xu Qingyang broke his illusion, “It’s not impossible, and the results of Yu Xiang’s investigation have come out. It is an inconspicuous little official next to Wang Shilang who has been embezzled. down to the prison.”
Cheng Xiao said to the side: “But Yang Qing and I have already investigated, the small official who was sent to the prison usually has a very weak presence in the Ministry of Households, and he usually has the money. There is no chance to get in touch at all, so how can we embezzle? It’s just a scapegoat.”
Chen Shouwei was struck speechless.
Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao looked at each other, and then the two took Chen garrison to a secluded place.
“Sir, that Wang Shilang is staying in Yaocheng now, this is an opportunity for us, as long as we seize him, then we can get the whereabouts of the food and military salaries.”
Chen Shoubei was startled, he looked at Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao, his eyes widened in disbelief.
“You…you are going to rebel!”
Xu Qingyang smiled, then looked at Chen Guard with a serious face.
“The lord is wrong, we just want to get back what belongs to us, lord, you know how low our winning rate is in the battle three days later. And our soldiers are now So far, I haven’t been able to eat a full meal.”
“And we won’t hurt the life of the king, just want him to hand over the whereabouts of the food.”
Chen Shoubei’s expression became hesitant.
He turned around and looked at the spiritless bodies of the soldiers on the martial arts field, then closed his eyes, and simply gritted his teeth: “Let the two of you handle this matter. , remember not to reveal your identity.”
“Yes!”
After sending off Chen Shoubei, Cheng Xiao turned his inquiring eyes to Xu Qingyang.
“You really want to do that?”
Xu Qingyang patted Cheng Xiao on the shoulder, “Why, you regret stepping on my pirate ship.”
When Xu Qingyang was passing news to the outside world, she happened to be bumped by Cheng Xiao, so she simply pulled Cheng Xiao into her camp.
Cheng Xiao’s expression was a bit indescribable, “This is a rebellion!”
Xu Qingyang rolled his eyes at him, “What? I regret it now, it’s a bit late.”
Cheng Xiao shook his head, “No, I just didn’t expect that I would come this far.”
Xu Qingyang patted him on the shoulder, “There will be more things you didn’t expect in the future, so get used to it as soon as possible.”
Then turned around to arrange this action.
After coming to the barracks for so long, Xu Qingyang has also attracted several people to stand on his side.
So, even if Chen Shouwei disagrees this time, her plan will still be carried out.
…
Yao City, Prefect.
Wang Jin hugged a scantily clad dancer and walked into the room arranged for him by the prefect of Yaocheng.
The maid waiting at the door of the room saw the master come back with a woman in her arms, and immediately opened the door with a wink, and then stood a little further away.
After Wang Jin entered, there was an ambiguous voice in the room, and then the voice fell silent after a while.
The person inside appears to be asleep.
The maid outside the door felt a little strange, but she didn’t think too much, just thought that the master was drunk today, so she went to bed a little earlier.
Wang Jin hadn’t come out of the room until the next day, when she was on the third pole, and the maid felt that something was wrong.
Ignoring the risk of being scolded by Wang Jin, she rushed in, and then let out a scream.
Wang Jin’s guard in the courtyard immediately appeared.
They rushed into the room and saw a woman lying on the bed in the room, Wang Jin’s personal maid was sitting on the ground covering her mouth, and when she saw them coming in, one hand panicked pointed to a place.
The guards looked up and saw a sharp dagger pierced through a **** severed finger and pinned a note to the bed in the room.
On the note was written several large characters in blood.
Blood for blood!
The prefect of Yaocheng quickly became chaotic because of Wang Jin’s disappearance.
There was nothing wrong with that dancer, but she was stunned by the drug.
However, as to how Wang Jin disappeared, she asked three questions, only that she suddenly lost consciousness when she was about to do good deeds with Wang Jin last night, and when she woke up again, it was this group of people came into the room.
…
Rongcheng.
Xu Qingyang threw the person on his back to the ground, and then washed his hands in disgust.
This Wang Jin is a life-sucking person, and there are many people around her to protect her. The people under her command don’t have the ability to steal the other party back now, so she can only play by herself.
Cheng Xiao sneaked into Xu Qingyang’s room, he looked at the pale Wang Jin on the ground and asked.
“Are you going to hide him here?”
Xu Qingyang nodded, “The wind is tight outside now, so it’s safer here. After a few days, there will be fewer people searching outside, so I’ll take him outside.”
Cheng Xiao nodded and stopped asking, “What about our food?”
Xu Qingyang had a sarcastic smile on his face.
“Yi people?” Cheng Xiao was a little surprised, and then he was filled with righteous indignation.
“Isn’t the Yi people also the enemy of our Yan Dynasty? How can he do this.”
Xu Qingyang glanced at Cheng Xiao, she obviously did not expect Cheng Xiao, the biggest villain in the original plot, to be so simple now.
After all, in the original plot of this world, when he helped the fourth prince to rebel for Yu Zhihan, he directly cooperated with the Xiongnu.
Compared with the Yi people, it is clear that the hatred between the Huns and the Yan Dynasty is greater.
“These are not important, the important thing is that you should go and bring the food back now, otherwise how will we fight tomorrow’s battle?”
Cheng Xiao nodded, and then quietly left here.
Xu Qingyang fed Wang Jin an elixir she brought from the world of self-cultivation, so that the other party could fall into a coma.
Then went to Yaocheng again.
She came to the best blacksmith in Yao City.
The blacksmith was working in front of the stove, but when he saw Xu Qingyang coming, he didn’t even care about the iron he was practicing in his hand, so he threw the things, then closed the shop, and pulled He followed Xu Qingyang to the backyard of the blacksmith shop.
“Sir, you are here. I am really uneasy about putting this thing here.”
After entering the backyard, the blacksmith came to a warehouse, and then lifted the rags over a thing in the center of the warehouse, revealing the pile of things below.
Happy.
The blacksmith was frightened by the side.
Get up.”
Xu Qingyang nodded, then took out a stack of thick silver notes from his sleeve and stuffed it into the blacksmith’s hand.
“This is the promised reward, but don’t leave here in a hurry, maybe I will come to you in a few days.”
The blacksmith took the money, he was happy at first, but he became nervous when he heard Xu Qingyang’s words.
“My lord, I…”
Xu Qingyang interrupted him directly, “Don’t worry, this matter will never affect your life. The reward will be the same as this time.”
The blacksmith was speechless, the temptation of money was too great, and he finally nodded.
