Chapter 343 Bounty for the Turks
Li Ke signaled the guards to tie up the Turkic man nailed to the tree.

"You killed all these people alone?"

Du Hu replied: "Go back to His Royal Highness, the one outside the back mountain was defeated by the county lord."

I have to say that these Turkic people ended up miserable, and they looked like they were played to death by Du Hu's superb archery skills.

Except for one who was killed by an arrow in the throat, the others were all shot in the body.

Li Ke looked at the expressionless Dug, feeling somewhat clear in his heart.

I heard about Dahu's past in the village. Dahu joined the army when he was very young, and since his relatives died at the hands of the Turkic people, he has inherited the military position. This child has hatred for the Turkic people in his heart.

Li Ke said to Dahu: "Go back, we will clean up here, and these Turkic people will be handed over to the government."

Only then did Duo turn around and leave.

Standing at the foot of the back mountain, Li Zheng saw Dumb coming back and said, "How is it? Are you injured?"

"No." Dui put the compound bow on his back, "If Zhong Lang didn't find out, he wouldn't know what these unknown Turkic people were trying to do in the village."

Li Zheng said to Li Ke who was dragging the corpse down the mountain: "Ask the living ones, how did they get in, it seems that the defense of our village is a little lax."

"It's my dereliction of duty. I will interrogate you carefully. Don't worry." Li Ke led the people.

Duhu watched the guards lead the people away and asked in a low voice, "Doesn't the magistrate want to know where these Turkic people came from?"

Li Zheng stroked Duhu's head and said, "Don't inquire about what you shouldn't. This time you killed these Turkic people and you will be credited with credit."

"Thank you, General Zhonglang." Dui changed his tune and said, "Thank you, General."

On the way back to the stables, Li Zheng said to Du Hu: "This time the Turks will come and they may come back next time. It seems that the law and order in Chang'an is not so good."

Du Hu said: "Turkic people like horses, if not for the county marquis who saw something wrong, we probably wouldn't have found these Turkic people."

"Fortunately." Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Your archery skills are very good."

Du Hu said with some pride: "I have learned from the generals since I entered the army since I was a child. Those Turkic people are very stupid, they can only go on the rampage."

Cheng Chumo led his men to patrol the village to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net, not even the bottom of the Jingyang River.

After Li Tai came back, he was a little scared when he heard about this incident, "Why did this Turkic come to the village?"

Li Zheng said helplessly: "There is an omission in Jingyang's defense. If it hadn't been discovered in time, we might not know what these Turkic people would do. We need to be more careful in the future."

Li Tai gobbled up the food, "Do you want me to send more people to protect Jingyang from my father?"

"No need." Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "Jingyang's guards are enough."

Li Tai nodded and didn't say much. After all, this is Li Zheng's own territory, so it's not good to ask too much.

These days, Li Tai has been doing hell-style weight loss on the road construction site.

The daily sweat soaked his clothes, and it could be seen that Li Tai was a little thinner than before.

Li Tai looked at the bronze mirror and said, "Li Zheng, do you think I've lost weight?"

Li Zheng also glanced at the bronze mirror, then at Li Tai with a disdainful smile and said, "Oh, not at all."

Li Tai looked suspiciously at his face in the bronze mirror and said to himself, "Are you really not thin at all?"

"It's so-called that you can't reach a thousand miles without accumulating steps, His Royal Highness King Wei has to work harder." Li Zheng said.

Li Tai nodded, "I will work hard."

After speaking, Li Tai raised his fist, as if swearing.

In fact, Li Tai has indeed lost some weight, but he can't see it when he looks in the mirror every day. As for saying this, it is just to make this fat man work twice, and one more road repair man can speed up the progress.

Li Zheng nodded while thinking about himself.

You can save one person's wages and save a huge sum of money.

Free labor is not in vain.

It can also be used justifiably.

Li Zheng listened to the news from Li Ke three days later while frying melon seeds.

"Those Turkic people were the subordinates of Jieli Khan in the early years. They were all driven out of the tribe by perseverance. They came to seek revenge on you."

"Looking for revenge on me?"

Li Ke added: "Earlier years ago, it was your strategy that allowed Datang to take Yinshan. Nowadays, no one in Turkic knows your name. Jieli has a good reputation in Turkic. Even now, many people only obey Jieli. I regard you as the enemy of life and death."

"I just moved my lips." Li Zheng was struggling to stir-fry the melon seeds.

Li Ke nodded and said: "That's right, you just used your words to defeat the Turks."

"Damn!" Li Zheng really wanted to curse.

Li Ke added: "It is said that many people in Turkic today are secretly offering thousands of rewards for your head."

"Excessive!" Li Zheng fried a handful of sunflower seeds again.

Li Ke nodded in agreement, "It's really too much to do so."

"My head is worth thousands of coins, it's so contemptuous!"

"..."

Li Zheng wrapped his hands in a cloth and took out a melon seed to break open the shell. The crispy melon seeds are very good.

Put out the melon seeds in this pot, take out the kitchen and say to Li Ke: "His Royal Highness, try the melon seeds I stir-fried, the original taste is not added."

"How do you eat this?"

Li Zheng picked up a melon seed skillfully, cracked open the melon seeds with his teeth, and ate the melon seeds inside, one by one.

While shaking the fan in his hand and crossing Erlang's legs, Li Zheng said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I saw this feeling."

Li Ke imitated Li Zheng's appearance, struggling to knock the melon seeds and asked in doubt: "How did you become so proficient."

Li Zhi turned to Li Ke and said, "Look at my movements."

Li Ke saw Li Zheng eating melon seeds skillfully, and tried it himself.

After coming down a few times, Li Ke has become more proficient, and he will learn it as soon as he learns it.

It seems that cracking melon seeds is an innate ability of Central Plains people.

Li Ke couldn't stop knocking on the melon seeds, "The melon seeds are very crispy, why don't you peel off all the melon seeds and eat the melon seeds by the handful."

Li Zheng said disdainfully: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu doesn't know something, but the secret of picking melon seeds lies in knocking one word."

As soon as the words fell, Li Zheng knocked another melon seed, "If this melon seed only has melon seed meat, then the fun of knocking melon seeds will be lost. Does His Highness the King of Shu think what I said is right?"

Li Ke knocked the melon seeds puzzled, one after another, and with some dry mouth took another sip of tea and continued knocking.

Half an hour later, Duo also joined the team of knocking sunflower seeds, and the very rhythmic sound of knocking sunflower seeds echoed beside the horse pen.

Melon seeds seem to have a kind of magic, people don't want to stop at all, comparable to peanuts.

At this time, if the scenery in front of them were more vivid, the three of them might be more energetic.

 There will be more tomorrow morning
