Factory owner is king

Chapter 164

Clan Mansion, the office that manages the affairs of the royal clan.

Any relatives of the emperor who made mistakes will be sent here.They will be locked up, judged, and in serious cases will be removed from the list or even executed.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very good to his children and grandchildren. Some of them may be ineffective, but they have never made major mistakes.Therefore, although the Clan Mansion was established early, it basically never opened.

But now, there are three distinguished guests living in - the strongest feudal town in the world, the three heirs of Yan Fan Wang Zhu Di.

The cell where they were held was still a cell, but it was actually not much different from an ordinary inn room.Tables, chairs, benches, and even a bookshelf with a few books.There is no shortage of food, wine and meat for three meals. Except for the lack of freedom, the other conditions are really good.

At least through the wooden fence, they can still talk.

"Brother, can't we go now..."

"This is another question, do you have a brain?"

"Did I ask you? What kind of fart did you fart?"

"I can't tell you without asking me, no brain is no brain."

"Enough!" Zhu Gaochi shouted and said angrily: "You are already in the prison of this sect's mansion, and you are still making trouble!"

The three former His Royal Highnesses of King Yan, and the current prisoner, the glorious future waiting for them is no longer there, and it may be unknown whether they will live or die in the future.

The fat body moved, and then he sat up from the wooden bed a little irritably. Zhu Gaochi said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, nothing will happen." His voice paused, and then he said: "Since my father and Master Daoyan have If we are sure to let the three of us go to Beijing together, then they must have considered the consequences of us being forcibly detained by the court, and they will definitely have countermeasures, for sure."

"I hope." Zhu Gaosui's voice was weak, as if he had completely given up.

Zhu Gaoxu on the side is stronger, but what he said is not so pleasant: "Who knows if the father will have a wild son outside."

"You!" Zhu Gaochi was furious.

"Okay, okay, I made a mistake, big brother, don't be angry, I'm just being silly." Zhu Gaoxu twitched his mouth lightly, and he also knew that he had said something wrong.

"The point is, haven't you had enough to eat? Do you want my third brother to help you?" Zhu Gaosui sneered.

"Hmph!" Zhu Gaochi turned over and fell down, facing the wall, but this time he was unwilling to speak again.

Things have come to this point, the three of them are already fish on the chopping board, let's take a step at a time.

. . . . . .

In the storybook novels, it is often mentioned that a certain person is a businessman with hundreds of taels of silver in his baggage.According to the current weight of a tael of silver, it is about forty grams. 100 taels of silver equals four kilograms, or eight kilograms.If someone really carried hundreds of taels of silver with him, let alone traveling thousands of miles, he would be exhausted even if he traveled more than a hundred miles.

That's the case for a few hundred taels, so what if it's 40 taels of silver?
Big carts and small carts, carried on shoulders and hands.Li Dake carried the burden and walked slowly along the official road with the team. Not far behind him, the town called Majiaji was still far away.

He doesn't like silver very much.Because he is a porter, to be precise, a postman of the imperial court, the lowest type.There is not much oil and water in the daily life, and what I earn is only a few pennies per month.But once an escort team passes by his lot, he is often selected to carry the goods.

No, the team escorting the salt tax from Yangzhou passed by and picked him up again. Fortune tellers often said that he was born to be a coolie. Now that I think about it, it seems that this is really the case.

With 40 taels of silver, there are more than a thousand taels of burden on his shoulders.Silver is a good thing, but it's two different things as a commodity, especially if the last penny doesn't fall into your hands.

"My mouth is dry, and I don't know how far the next town is. Even if there is a shady place to rest." Li Dake complained, stopped, wiped his forehead, wet, casually With a flick, the sweat fell to the ground and broke into several petals.

"What are you doing! Leave quickly! Be careful of the uncle's whip!" A shout sounded behind him, followed by a crack of a whip.Fortunately, it didn't hit him, otherwise it would have been another cut.

Li Dake hurriedly took two steps, as if he could stay away from the official nicknamed Wang Huo: "What a powerful person, isn't it just holding a whip in his hand. I'm so anxious that I quit the job."

Of course, this was just a thought, he didn't have the guts to do such a stupid thing.

"Drive, drive." The sound of the horse's hooves sounded, and it flew past Li Dake.

"My lord, there is a plum forest in the fifteenth place ahead, and there is a river with flowing water in the forest. The subordinates have already checked it, and there is no one there."

"Meilin?" When Xiao Jing heard these two words, his tongue was already flowing.

Porters are not easy, and he, the escort on the horse, is actually not having a good time.A man in full armor sits on a horse.As soon as the sun was shining, he felt like he was stewed meat in a jar, and it was not much worse if it was not cooked.

Xiao Jing looked around, it was noon, and apart from his escort team, not even a cat or dog was seen on the official road.

"It shouldn't be a big deal if you rest for a while." Thinking this, Xiao Jing swallowed and ordered: "Go and take a closer look. If it is safe, we will rest in the forest later."

"Decree!" Xiao Xiao clasped his fists and whipped the horse away.

Both Xiao Jing and this small school were from serious military backgrounds, and they were born with loud voices.There was nothing to cover up the conversation just now. Many people in the team heard the key words "Meilin", "Xiaohe", and "Rest", and their steps became much lighter.

Five miles, just grit your teeth and arrive.

"In ancient times, Cao Cao looked at the plum blossoms to quench his thirst. Today, I, Wang Jing, look at the plum blossoms...Looking at the plum blossoms..." With no culture, Xiao Jing "Wangmei" didn't finish his words for a long time, so he couldn't help but drink bitterly: "Give it all to me. Hurry up, there is Merlin in front, I will lead you to rest. You are hot, and I will not cool off! At this time, whoever dares to be lazy, I will peel off his skin!"

"Yes!" Eighty porters and two hundred soldiers shouted in unison, their faces full of energy.

"What a bastard. Speech!" Xiao Jing cursed with a smile, raised his hand and slapped his ass twice, he couldn't wait any longer.

Fifteen miles is not a short distance, but everyone put in all their energy, running and bumping, and arrived in about half an hour.

By the small river, the slowly flowing water looks golden under the sunlight.

"Rest where you are for an hour, and then continue on your way!" Xiao Jing took off his helmet, shook off countless sweats, and gave the order.

The team of 300 people put down their weapons and dispersed in a hurry. Some ran to the river to fetch water, some climbed trees to pick plums, and what's more, Xiang Li Dake took off his clothes and plunged into the river directly. In the middle of the river, there was a lot of laughter and cursing.

"I said, you little bird is too embarrassed to show it, so you want to show some shame?"

"It's still a bird, show me an eagle!"

"Haha, Lao Li, don't pee, we men still have to drink!"

"How can you drink this, you are covered in plaster, and you can't stand it without urinating." A soldier said this, but kept his hand, scooping up water one after another.

"All right, all right, you dare think I'm dirty, I'll go upstream to play, and I won't be able to drink even a sip of good water!" Li Dake said, dived into the water, and then disappeared.

Everyone knew that Li Dake was good at swimming, and half an hour was not too short, so they ignored him.

"My lord, let's eat some plums." The scout from before walked to the tree with twenty or thirty plums in his lapel, and said to Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing leaned against the tree trunk, grabbed two plums and threw them into his mouth. He grinned sourly: "Okay, you guys eat yours. It's rare to have a comfortable place. I just squint for a while and don't worry about me."

He said he squinted for a while, but as soon as he closed his eyes, there was a cry.

After a while, everyone quenched their thirst and closed their eyes just like Xiao Jing.Slowly, the snoring sounded one after another.

"Huh!"

"Hooah!"

"Grumbling."

This scene is said to be the scene of the snoring competition, and some people believe it.There were those who were snoring like thunder, shouting loudly, and no one was disturbed. They were really too tired. They didn't dare to waste this rare moment of tranquility.

Those few unlucky ones who were arranged to watch were also absent-minded, with their upper and lower eyelids closed.

. . . . . .

"It's almost time, let everyone get ready." Slowly lifted the black scarf tied around his neck, covering his face, leaving only a pair of special triangular eyes.

Behind them are two hundred big men, wearing the same black clothes, black scarves covering their faces, the same attire, and holding various weapons in their hands.

"Go!" The leader shouted, but no one answered.

Quietly, like two hundred crows, they swooped down on the plum grove in front of their sight.

"Who!"

"Forehead!"

The bloody light suddenly appeared, and the team lost their defense. It was not until the screams rang in their ears that everyone reacted.The approach of death frightened them, but their sore and numb hands picked up weapons, got up again, and raised their knives to chop. At this moment, their resistance was like a baby's struggle, which made people laugh.They were just doing their best and obeying destiny, and destiny was to let them die.

The outcome was already decided the moment they entered Merlin.

Xiao Jing didn't rush forward immediately, he took a steel knife in his hand, first took a few steps back, slowly regained his strength, and then jumped into the standing circle.He wanted to run, but he couldn't.

Lost the court's salt tax money, he is dead.On this road to the underworld leading to Yan Luodian, he wanted to be a sensible ghost, he wanted to know who the other party was!
On one side is Wuchang in black, who is silent, and on the other side, Xiao Jing leads his desperate brothers to resist vigorously.

With a single strike, he cut off three fingers of a man in black at the moment the opponent held him back, and then stabbed back, hitting the opponent's heart.

Open and close, simple and direct, this is the martial arts in the army.

Swords, lights and swords, amidst the scuffle, Xiao Jing swept away thousands of troops with one move, fended off the three men in black in front of him, and shouted sharply: "The imperial court salt tax, you dare to do it, you really took the courage of ambition, thank you for reporting!" Come on!"

"Heh." There was a chuckle, but no one spoke.

"Kill, kill, kill!" Xiao Jing danced wildly with his sword, fighting in all directions.It's just that the battle was gradually coming to an end, and more than 20 men in black surrounded them with blood on the ground.

"Who are you!"

"Who is it!"

Xiao Jing shouted at the top of his lungs until a sword tip protruded from his chest, shining brightly and glowing coldly, dripping the hot blood in his heart.

"White Lotus Sect."

This was the last sound he heard, a mouthful of blood fell on the ground, and then endless darkness descended.

The chaotic battle in the forest was finally over, and it took only half an hour in total, and 270 nine lives were lost in this way.

Scanning around, he saw only black clothes everywhere.Triangle Eyes nodded and said: "Make up the knife, spread the flowers."

"Yes!" The men in black responded in unison, and shuttled among the corpses on the ground.The sword rises and falls, and blood splashes, and they want to make sure that no fish slips through the net.Two or more men in black took off the small bags behind them, took out a lot of wild flowers from them, and scattered them casually.

"What are you doing throwing flowers?" Among the team escorting the salt tax, the only fish that slipped through the net showed its head on the river, and then sank into the water with doubts and fear, and quietly turned back upstream.

Not long after, everything was arranged, and the man in black picked or carried the 40 taels of silver and went out of the forest, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

Mei Linzhong once again returned to the tranquility of the past, and it was not until night fell that Li Dake, who had been "ambushing" for a long time, went to the case again.He didn't want to come back either, but there was no way, he was still naked.Picking up his blood-stained clothes and putting them on, Li Dake turned his head and was about to leave.But after thinking about it, he stopped again.

He didn't want to stay here any longer.However, there is still money on the ground?

That's right, the 40 taels of silver was robbed, but these "old brothers" still have a few coppers and a few treasures in their arms, right?
Just like that, Li Dake started to rummage with fear and trembling: "Brothers, don't blame me. It's easier for others to give it to me, Lao Li. I will burn more paper money for you later. If you have more, I will pay you back." I will find a monk to perform religious rituals for you, and he will surely save you in the ultimate bliss. Amitabha, the Infinite Heavenly Lord, Amitabha, the Infinite Heavenly Lord."

After tossing and turning, he came to Xiao Jing who was in armor.Putting his hand into his bosom, Li Dake read again: "General, don't bother Li Dake with me. I will offer you a few sticks of incense alone later."

I felt a small money bag in my hand, judging by the feel, how many taels of silver should be in it?

Li Dake was happy, but before he could draw his hand out, he was caught.

"Ah!!!!" Li Dake screamed, and his crotch was already wet.

"Bai.....Bai.....Bai Lian!" Tilting his head, Xiao Jing, who was panting with resentment and resentment, finally completely lost his life.
