The system forced me to be emperor
Page 376
Xiao Rui had no choice but to agree. Under the escort of thirty brave soldiers, Xiao Rui left Songyang County and went south along the official road, preparing to leave Hangzhou and enter Fuzhou Province.
What Xiao Rui didn't know was that when he left Songyang County, the Mr. Lu who was beside Ye Qianrou had already gathered people to spy on him secretly, but when he saw so many soldiers around Xiao Rui, he had no choice but to give up. attack.
He also already knew the fact that Ye Qianrou was poisoned and died, so what he should do was his own consideration.
When Xiao Rui left the boundaries of Songyang County and entered Yunhe County to rest, he suddenly heard a piece of news.
The county magistrate of Yunhe County was hanged on the city tower by a mysterious woman in a white dress, and she took off her clothes, and left a domineering sentence: "I am a Valkyrie, looking for the seventh son! Everyone in the world will tell it!"
"It's the little witch!" Xiao Rui clutched his forehead, feeling extremely headache.
Chapter 307: The Heavenly Meteorite Iron Forging Divine Soldier
As soon as Xiao Rui and the others arrived in Yunhe County, Hangzhou, they heard about the feat of the little witch. They actually hung the county master naked on the city wall, and put down cruel words to find the seventh son.
No matter who the Seventh Young Master is, he is naturally Xiao Rui.
As expected of a little witch, this way of speaking is also unique and novel enough.Xiao Rui hurriedly asked Li Yuanfang to inquire about her whereabouts. After asking, she found out that it was three days ago that the magistrate was suspended. Going to other places is a disaster.
At the same time, I also found out that the magistrate of Yunhe County was not a good bird, he was hanged by the little witch because he oppressed the people, so the people of Yunhe County applauded secretly.
Since Xiao Rui came, he naturally couldn't let the corrupt officials go, so the group stayed in the county first.
As soon as they settled down, the magistrate of Yunhe County hurried over.
The four of Xiao Rui were able to visit in secret, but they were accompanied by thirty brave guard soldiers. The county town was so big, and their whereabouts were exposed as soon as they entered the city. Naturally, the county magistrate of Yunhe County also knew about it.
"Xiaguan Yun and Wu Mingshan, the magistrate of the county, pay homage to this lord. My eyes are clumsy and I don't know the identity of your lord. Dare to ask where you come from?" The Wu county magistrate asked Xiao Rui to see him. But I still prayed and hoped it wasn't, but to be protected by the soldiers of the Hangzhou Metropolitan Division, it was naturally not a simple person.
A small seventh-rank county magistrate is not worthy of Xiao Rui's personal investigation, so he directly took out the token of the supervisory censor, and said: "Bring out your crimes for real, and strive for leniency!"
It would appear arrogant and ignorant if someone else uttered these words. How could the magistrate of Yunhe County speak out his crimes with just one sentence, are he stupid?Have a silly face?Not two hundred and five.
But Wu Mingshan broke out in a cold sweat after hearing Xiao Rui's words.
During this period of time, the officials in Hangzhou are very well-behaved, and they also like to do good deeds. Why?
It's not because His Royal Highness King Xian is inspecting Hangzhou as a censor, who would dare to commit crimes at this moment!
Of course Wu Mingshan didn't dare, but he felt that His Royal Highness King Xian would patronize a small place like Yunhe County with such a prominent status!
It's just that I didn't hear it, I was so bad, I actually met it!
After hearing King Xian's words, Wu Mingshan's first thought was not to admit it, he would rather die than admit his crime!But then, he was afraid.
The people in the entire county know what kind of virtue and reputation I have, and it is not difficult to investigate clearly, and I can't escape at all!
Instead of refusing to admit it and provoke His Highness to conduct a thorough investigation, it is better to admit some insignificant crimes now, and at worst be demoted or even dismissed, which is better than finding out all the crimes and then convicting him!
Thinking of this, Wu Mingshan said sadly: "The lower officials are convicted. In order to pursue political achievements, the lower officials are harsh to the people in the land they govern, so that the people complain! The lower officials are not strict, which leads to the officials under their control. Shirking the responsibility! That’s why I’m willing to plead guilty and accept the punishment!”
Xiao Rui immediately gave this person a high look, and confessed directly, not because he frightened him, but because he was smart!
The two crimes he pleaded guilty to were extremely light, and at most he was demoted to a remote county.If Xiao Rui were to find out about other crimes, it would not be as simple as being demoted!
Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "Magistrate Wu can indeed get a lenient punishment if he pleads guilty voluntarily, but are these the only things Mr. Wu committed?"
Wu Mingshan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He realized that King Xian had a big appetite. If he couldn't come up with a way to save himself, he wouldn't let it go this time.
Then what good things can I come up with to satisfy His Royal Highness King Xian and make him hold his hand high?
At this moment, Wu Mingshan thought about everything he could think of, and suddenly had an idea and seized an opportunity!
"My lord, I have a treasure that I want to dedicate to my lord, so that I can make meritorious deeds. I implore my lord to hold your hand high and forgive me." Wu Mingshan said hastily.
Xiao Rui asked: "What baby?"
"Please look, my lord!" Wu Mingshan said, pulling out a dagger from his waist, and respectfully said: "My lord, three years ago, there was a lot of mud in the south river of Yunhe County. A huge boulder was found at the bottom of the river. The surface of the boulder was shiny silver. It was cold to the touch and extremely hard. The officer ordered someone to take one of them and forge this dagger. It was not only extremely sharp, but also extremely hard, cutting iron like mud. !"
"Oh?" Xiao Rui suddenly became interested, took the dagger, and when he drew the blade, there was indeed a silver light shining, and the whole was bright silver. Xiao Rui touched the blade with his hand, and it really felt cold.
Xiao Rui handed the dagger to Li Yuanfang. After Li Yuanfang took it, he felt that it was slightly heavier, half the weight of refined Bailian steel. Then he swung the dagger and cut off the corner of the wooden table beside him.
Li Yuanfang's eyes brightened, and he said: "Young master, the material of this dagger is very strange. In my opinion, it should not be ordinary metal, but probably meteorite iron that fell from the sky."
Wu Mingshan said with a smile: "This friend has a good eye. This is indeed a meteorite that fell from the world. After the officials found this huge piece of meteorite, they asked the old people in the county. They said that there was indeed a legend passed down from their ancestors, saying that A long time ago, a mysterious fireball fell to the ground, and it landed outside Yunhe County, and when it fell to the ground, the entire Yunhe County felt like an earthquake."
"Go and get a knife!" Xiao Rui was full of interest. He didn't expect that there would be unexpected joy when he passed through Yunhe County this time.
Li Yuanfang brought a Pu Dao, which was cast by Baisteel. It is a standard weapon made by outstanding craftsmen of the Great Xia Kingdom. Xiao Rui took the dagger and slashed fiercely on the blade of the Pu Dao. The blade of the knife is intact, but there is a small gap in the blade of Pu Dao!
"It's so tough!" Xiao Rui was overjoyed, and quickly handed the dagger to Guo Jia.
After Guo Jia looked at it, he praised: "Young master, this is a rare metal for forging weapons. If we can use it to forge countless weapons, when we confront the enemy, we should occupy the power of the weapons first, which is equivalent to occupying the initiative on the battlefield." "Magistrate Wu, is this piece of meteorite big?"
Wu Mingshan hurriedly said: "It's not big, the biggest one is ten feet long, but there are a lot of them, one by one, scattered around, the lower officials didn't search carefully, so I don't know exactly how many pieces there are. The lower officials judged, If it is used to make weapons, I dare not say that it can equip ten thousand men, but two or three thousand men should be more than enough."
"So many?" Guo Jia was overjoyed. She thought it was a piece of meteorite, but she didn't expect the amount to be so large. He quickly said to Xiao Rui: "Your Highness, the Iron Dragon Cavalry is the most elite heavy armored cavalry in the Great Xia Kingdom, but after all Not unique, other countries now have their own best heavy armored cavalry regiments! It is really hard to judge which is stronger and weaker. But if we can use these meteorites to make weapons and armor and equip them with iron dragons, then they Raise the fighting power to a higher level, so that it can surpass the heavy armored cavalry of other countries and become the strongest corps!"
Dian Wei at the side shook his double halberds and said with a smile: "My pair of iron halberds are too bad. If I can make a pair out of meteorite, it will be perfect!"
"That's right!" Li Yuanfang also strongly agreed.
For generals, war horses and weapons and armor are their most loyal partners in their military career, and having reliable weapons is the reliance on killing the enemy and saving their lives, so Dian Wei and Li Yuanfang are very excited.
Xiao Rui naturally knew this truth, so he said to Wu Mingshan: "Take us to see, if what you said is true, it counts as your meritorious service, and I will spare you this time!"
"Thank you for your kindness, my lord, I understand!" Wu Mingshan heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the knife on his neck had finally been let go.
"You should know my identity. Since I promised you, I won't break my promise!" Xiao Rui comforted, "So use your ability to dig out all this meteorite for me! The more the better!"
"Yes, I understand!" Wu Mingshan was immediately full of energy. This time, not only was he able to commit crimes and meritorious deeds, but he also had the opportunity to get acquainted. What a surprise!
Afterwards, Wu Mingshan immediately arranged for people to prepare, and the group wandered out of the county.
When he came to the place where the meteorite was found, Wu Mingshan immediately arranged for people to intercept the river, and then empty the water in the river.It is said to be a river channel, but it is actually only more than three meters wide. It is a water channel used for irrigation between the fields, so the cleaning speed is very fast.After clearing the water, the silt was excavated, and soon, the head of a piece of meteorite was exposed.
Wu Mingshan immediately urged everyone to clean up quickly, wishing he could go to battle by himself, after all His Royal Highness King Xian was still waiting here.
After working for a while, the long meteorite was completely exposed.
Xiao Rui asked Li Yuanfang to go down to check. He drew out his saber and slashed at the meteorite, stabbing... A burst of sparks flashed, and the meteorite was not split at all, only a bright silver trace was revealed.On the other hand, Li Yuanfang's sword has some traces of friction on the blade.
His sword is the best among hundred forged steels, but it is still much inferior to Meteorite.This is the difference in material, just like a fool who is eager to learn, but still can't compare with a smart person.
"Your Highness, that's right, this whole piece is made of meteorite!" Li Yuanfang nodded.
Xiao Rui smiled knowingly, and then said to Wu Mingshan: "Magistrate Wu, I will trouble you next time. This king needs you to send someone to search for the meteorite. Don't let it go, big or small. Of course, I won't let you Baigan, I will pay for it. Whoever finds more and bigger meteorites will get more rewards! I will pay for the loss of the fertile land trampled around here, and I will pay for the maintenance of the excavated river. ! This king can’t leave poison to the people of Yunhe County just because of his own needs!”
