The blood feud of relatives, the grace of the emperor, the anger of being deceived, the fishermen have been dazzled by various emotions, and now they all roared angrily when they heard Li Wei's words.

Under the leadership of Li Wei, a campaign to wipe out false gods was immediately launched.

Guiyuandao, who was entrenched in Jinghuai County and sucked the fat of the people, naturally did not expect that there would be a day when he would be liquidated. When angry fishermen rushed into the temple, the unsuspecting believers were caught.

When the news came to Guiyuandao, the situation was completely out of control. Guiyuandao, who had never thought of such a situation, was caught off guard for a while, and urgently called the elders and protectors of the teaching to discuss the matter.

Looking at the temple with black smoke, Li Wei remained silent for a long time, and frowned when he heard the footsteps behind him.

Although Li Renhe and the others didn't have much skill, the experience of living in the grassland had already cultivated a beast-like intuition. As soon as someone approached secretly, they reacted, and they all pulled their strings and set up arrows, aiming at the direction of the person.

"Do you think some big man, so many big men, are so afraid of me, a weak woman?"

Seeing that Yao Sixiao was alone, Li Renhe also felt that he overreacted and was a little embarrassed. He signaled his subordinates to put down their bows and arrows, but the arrows were still on the bowstring, ready to shoot and kill the enemy at any time.

"who are you?"

Yao Sixiao didn't answer Li Wei's question, and went straight to Li Wei before saying: "The people are like water, it can be a gurgling stream that nourishes the world, or it can become a flood that sweeps everything. You incite the people to plunder, and now it is difficult to control. Now, in this situation, do you have something to say?"

"I do things, do I need to explain to you?"

"I don't know good people. I'm worried that you won't be able to control the situation, which will eventually lead to civil unrest. If the court blames you, you won't be able to explain it."

"People who return to Yuandao?"

Yao Sixiao neither admitted nor denied, and continued to ask: "Why did you come to Jinghuai County?"

"I said it before, but to eradicate false gods."

Guiyuandao deceived the people with superstition. Yao Sixiao didn’t believe in the existence of the sea god at all. Han Siliang’s entrusting the emperor with a dream was even more nonsense. In her opinion, the imperial court sent people here, and Xiang Zhuang’s sword dance was aimed at Peigong. It's for Guiyuandao.

"If you don't want to say it, I won't ask, remember, don't try to control the power you can't control, otherwise you will suffer backlash.

I came here today just to say hello to you, so that you won't be beaten so hard by me that you don't even know who your opponent is. "

"Haha, okay, you should also take a good look at me and remember who your enemy is."

Nodding her head, Yao Sixiao turned around and left.

Walking into the woods, Ling Kongzi walked quickly and said in a low voice, "Congratulations to the saint, it has been confirmed that Master Huan Fan is dead, and the body is incompletely trampled by the untouchables."

"Bastard, Master Huanfan is a senior brother. Are you so happy that he died? If you dare to talk nonsense, I will let you know how powerful the canon is!"

She spoke harshly, but Yao Sixiao couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.

"Idle clan sons can't maintain his aura, this person is not simple, we have to be careful.

Let's go, in Islam, let the news tell the leader. "

When Li Wei stirred up the situation in Jinghuai County, there was peace in the capital.

"How is it? The scenery here is not bad, isn't it?"

Wen Zishan kindly invited Zou Yuntao to watch the scenery together. Along the way, Wen Zishan gave Zou Yuntao various explanations of local customs and customs. The whole day, they were basically non-stop.

"good……"

Zou Yuntao said perfunctorily while rubbing his shoulders, he didn't have much interest in admiring the scenery, but he was too embarrassed to offend Wen Zishan, so he could only force himself to enjoy it with him.

Seeing that Zou Yuntao was a little tired, Wen Zishan stopped introducing him. He called a boatman, threw him a silver coin, and took Zou Yuntao up.

"Seeing that you are tired too, why don't we take a boat parade next, and we can also see the beautiful scenery."

After thinking about it, taking a boat was indeed easier than walking, so Zou Yuntao reluctantly agreed. It was a bit embarrassing for two people to take the same boat. Zou Yuntao coughed, ready to break the embarrassment.

"I've been here for a while, and it's time to prepare to return to my country."

Chapter 670

The purpose of being sent as an envoy by Chu State this time was to discuss the resumption of trade between Chu and Qin, but the officials of Da Qin procrastinated as long as they could, knowing that they couldn't negotiate any useful terms today.

I proposed to meet Li Wei, Emperor of Qin several times, but was delayed by Qin officials with various excuses. Zou Yuntao couldn't figure out what happened, but he also knew that it was useless for him to stay in Qin, so he should report back as soon as possible.

Wen Zishan suddenly yelled after hearing this, "What? You want to go?"

It wasn't a big deal at first, but Zou Yuntao almost fell off the boat because of Wen Zishan's sudden utterance, "Yes, I've been here for so long, if I don't go back, Chu Kingdom might not want me anymore."

"Then you might as well stay here. Our place is full of beautiful mountains and rivers, delicious food and wine. It's better for you to stay here than to go back!"

Knowing that Wen Zishan was joking with him, and knowing that Wen Zishan was enthusiastic, Zou Yuntao didn't care too much.

"I'd like to come back later when I'm free. It's not good to cause you trouble all the time. I'm going to leave today."

"Today? Why are you in such a hurry? Did my poor hospitality make you feel uncomfortable? If you have any dissatisfaction, you can speak out directly, and we are not outsiders."

Zou Yuntao waved his hands again and again, "No, no, you treated me very well, but I have stayed long enough, and I still have my wife and children waiting at home."

"Then don't worry about this day. I haven't brought you to eat our special delicacies yet, and I haven't taken you to play enough. You can say that you can't leave."

"It's almost enough to play today, and I will entertain you well when you go to our Chu country in the future."

No matter what Zou Yuntao said, Wen Zishan just disagreed.

"Don't say anything. After you leave, I don't know when I will see you again. You and I have hit it off. Not to mention anything else, it will be my mother's birthday in a few days. You have to stay silent for whatever you say." , my mother likes you the most, you will never refuse her old man's kindness, will you?"

"I've already prepared the congratulatory gift for the old lady. You don't have to hide it when the time comes, just pass it on for me. Otherwise, she'll be snotted and in tears when she sees me. I have to set off today. I'll return it when I go back." There are many things waiting for me."

No matter what Wen Zishan said, Zou Yuntao politely refused, "Hey, it seems that it is very important to keep you. That's fine, I don't want to force you, but you absolutely cannot leave today. I will see you off tomorrow morning."

Seeing that he still wanted to refuse, Wen Zishan directly made a decision for him, "Okay, you don't need to say anything more, I will see you off today, don't worry, I will send you back tomorrow morning, and I won't keep you anymore."

It just so happened that it was getting late, and traveling at night was dangerous. Coupled with Wen Zishan's strong invitation, Zou Yuntao could only reluctantly agree.

On the second day, Zou Yuntao packed his luggage early, but he didn't wait to come to Wen Zishan. Thinking of Wen Zishan's promise to himself last night, he got up at dawn to see him off.

Originally Zou Yuntao wanted to leave by himself, but after hesitating for a long time, he decided that it would be more appropriate to say hello to him, so he packed his luggage and went directly to Wenzishan's government office to find him.

"My lord got seriously ill after drinking too much wine yesterday, and now he is bedridden, and we don't see anyone."

As soon as he arrived at the door, he was sent out by the official.

That's fine, Zou Yuntao told the official: "Please inform your lord that Zou Yuntao is leaving and there is no need to send it away."

Just finished talking about his return to China, Shang Kaiping got out of nowhere, grabbed Zou Yuntao's arm and said affectionately: "Why, I heard you are leaving?"

Zou Yuntao nodded, "I'm ready to go now."

Immediately afterwards, he heard Shang Kaiping get angry, "Good guy, don't tell me before you leave, I didn't even practice it for you, why, why do you look down on me?"

Zou Yuntao couldn't laugh or cry: "How is it possible? I talked to Wen Zishan for a long time yesterday. I have stayed here long enough, and I have to go back to my life."

"Wen Zishan is a good man who has done his best. I came to you today and said that I would take you to watch a play together. A troupe came from the east, and they sang wonderfully. Let's go, let's talk after watching the show."

After hearing this, Zou Yuntao waved his hands again and again and said, "No, no, I'm leaving soon. Let's be together when we have a chance in the future."

After finishing speaking, Shang Kaiping immediately drooped his face, "Why, you don't give me face? I heard that Wen Zishan took you around to eat, drink and have fun. I let you watch a play together, and you don't want to? You Do you have any opinion about me?"

Seeing that Shang Kaiping misunderstood, Zou Yuntao hurriedly explained, "You misunderstood, how could I have any objection to you, I really can't delay any longer, and it will be noon if we delay any longer."

"Then let's go after lunch."

As he said that, Shang Kaiping asked the servant to drag off Zou Yuntao's luggage, "I can't, I have to leave today. To be honest, I had to leave last night. It was because of love, Wen Zishan promised to send him off early in the morning." I set off, if I didn't see him not moving, I would have thought of coming to say hello to him, or I would have left."

"That's not enough for you, you can tell yourself how we treat you."

"Very, very good..."

"That's it, why don't you want to say hello to us? You have been here for a while, and I haven't done my favor as a landlord. You have given Wen Zishan face. Wouldn't it make others say that I am Didn't treat you well?"

Zou Yuntao was speechless, thinking to himself why they were so enthusiastic about him, which made him a little embarrassed.

"It's really not necessary. I appreciate your kindness. When I come to our Chu country to be a guest someday, I will definitely do my best to be a landlord!"

"Don't wait for another day, today you are in our Daqin, I have a reason to treat you well, you don't need to be in a hurry, watch the play first and then talk.

And you can't refuse me, I haven't taken you there yet, I managed to find someone to invite the theater troupe through my relationship, you can't refuse me. "

"This...I..."

"What about me, you just follow me obediently."

Saying that, Shang Kaisheng dragged Zou Yuntao away.

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, an official in green robe couldn't help complaining to Wen Zishan: "My lord, the cost of entertaining Zou Yuntao these days is too high, and it will cost 500 taels of silver. I'm afraid it won't be easy to approve."

"Don't worry about it, just report it."

"But His Majesty has always advocated frugality, if..."

"You don't have to worry about your Majesty, that's all right, just do your thing."

Wen Zishan interrupted directly.

Zou Yuntao was entertained warmly, but His Majesty specially ordered before the private visit that Li Wei, who wished to spend one penny as two pennies, could be so generous this time, there must be something wrong.

Wen Zishan had vaguely guessed that Li Wei had taken a fancy to Zou Yuntao, a virtuous minister of the Chu Kingdom. As far as he knew, none of the people Li Wei was targeting could escape.

And Zou Yuntao obviously didn't know what he was about to face, and he looked at the beautiful scenery of the capital of the Great Qin with full of thoughts.

When Li Wei was sitting on the hillside looking at the scenery, a group of cavalry came galloping. Before the horses stopped, Zheng Xiangze jumped off the horses in a hurry and asked with a gloomy face: "Master Li, you have had enough trouble this time." No?"

With the emperor's secret decree to endorse, even if he didn't want to, the officials in Jinghuai County didn't dare to stop him. Now the county lieutenant is outside, dispatching troops and generals to prepare for the civil unrest that may break out at any time.

And Zheng Xiangze was even more restless, if there was a civil disturbance in Jinghuai County, if the court held him accountable, he, the county guard, would bear the brunt.

It's no wonder that Zheng Xiangze is in a good mood because Li Wei has to take the blame for the trouble he caused.

"Guiyuandao deceived the people in Jinghuai County and caused disasters for many years. You don't want to think about how to punish the evildoers, but deal with the bullied and deceived people?"

"I... You are so reckless, it will inevitably cause civil unrest! If someone dies, can you afford the responsibility!"

"There will be no civil unrest."

Hearing Li Wei's words, Zheng Xiangze couldn't help feeling furious, especially when he saw that Li Wei was still drinking tea in a leisurely manner, he dropped the teacup in his hand on the ground.

"Lord Li, even if you are a child of the clan, even if you have His Majesty's secret decree, you will not be allowed to act recklessly! Even if I want to quit my official position, I will stop you!"

"As I said, there will be no civil unrest."

"No? I have been an official for decades, and the civil administration understands better than you. This time there will be chaos! How dare you make a bet?"

Zheng Xiangze asked viciously.

"Just bet. If there is civil unrest, I will immediately leave Jinghuai County and return to the capital. If there is no civil unrest, how about you?"

"I'm not going to resign, but Jinghuai County Sheriff will let you do it!"

"I'm too lazy to be a county guard, but for a person like you, resigning from office will be of great benefit to the people of the country. It's a gamble."

Being ridiculed face to face by Li Wei, Zheng Xiangze's face became even more gloomy, and he didn't bother to continue the chat. He looked coldly at the rioters who were carrying the temple's belongings like ants down the mountain.

These untouchables, without government control, become uncontrollable scourge once they become chaotic. Now Li Wei incites them to rob, and the rioters who have tasted the sweetness will not be able to stop. The civil uprising is only a matter of time.

"Your Majesty, my lord, the things have arrived."

"Send it to the fishermen immediately and tell them it's free."

"Yes."

Looking at Li Renhe who turned and left, Zheng Xiangze asked suspiciously, "What are you giving?"

"It's nothing, just hammers, axes, saws, and a batch of chicken carts. I rented a batch of donkey carts and mule carts nearby."

"What do you give them these things for?"

"The fishermen are used to being poor, and now they can get something good, so naturally they are reluctant to throw away anything. In addition to the belongings in the Sea God Temple, the tables, chairs, benches, and even bricks and beams are very important to them, so they naturally have to take them back."

Hearing this, Zheng Xiangze's eyes almost popped out, "You, you're crazy! It's fine if you don't stop the mob looting, and even provide them with tools. You're afraid that you won't get enough things!"

Chapter 671 The Way of Being an Official

"You're right, that's what I'm worried about."

"You... are unreasonable, you are setting yourself on fire, just watch, you will reap the consequences!"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Xiangze didn't bother to talk nonsense with Li Wei, and gloated at the Sea God Temple that was robbed by fishermen at the foot of the mountain. This was already the last Sea God Temple in Jinghuai County.

After these rioters have robbed them all, they will find another target. As long as there are a hundred rioters, tens of thousands can be rolled up, and civil chaos will appear.

Being able to be the sheriff in Jinghuai County in peace and stability, naturally he has colluded with Guiyuandao for a long time. Now Li Wei has become the enemy of Guiyuandao, and naturally also the enemy of Zheng Xiangze. It is a good thing to let him go as soon as possible. pile.

After more than half an hour, there was a "boom", a loud noise suddenly appeared in the Sea God Temple, and a fire dragon jumped more than four feet high, and there was a panic scream in the temple immediately.

Zheng Xiangze gloated and said: "The rioters are the rioters. They set fires everywhere, even burning down the place where the lamp oil was stored. Now that the fire is complete, the rioters will be forced to retreat by the fire. If they can't grab anything here, they will go to other places."
