I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 589 Frustration
Yang Xixuan's eyes are full of darkness. He has no compassion for the people of the Hekou Kingdom. The late Wang family is fatuous, and the Hekou Kingdom has no mercy for the people in the Central Plains. The centuries-old hatred cannot be resolved easily.

Minister Kou twitched his stiff mouth, "General Yang, we really can't make up your request, and the emperor of our country has always believed that we have a deep friendship."

Yang Xixuan smiled, "There is a saying in the Central Plains that brothers and sisters will settle accounts, not to mention we still have enmity. You can forget the century-old plundering of our nation's coast, but I will never forget that my failure to join forces with pirates is enough to prove my sincerity, so don't Trying to use my empty hand as a white wolf."

Minister He Kou had sweat on his forehead, he faced the murderous look on General Yang, just now he thought he was going to die by the general's knife.

Ming Chen said playfully, "I think you are also very well informed. When the pirates are formally incorporated by Wang Huang, you will lose your last chance. Who will be Wang Huang's first target? This lord So smart, I don’t need to explain it.”

Minister He Kou's face turned pale. It was because of the news from the north that the emperor was afraid. Now only Ruizhou dared to fight the emperor and had enough sea power. Minister He Kou said dryly, "I need to ask the emperor for instructions."

Yang Xixuan smiled, "Anyway, you are the ones who are in a hurry."

Ming Chen waited for Minister He Kou to leave, frowning, "He Kou really has a lot of silver?"

Yang Xixuan, "Well, I believe that the Emperor Hekou will agree."

Ming Chen stroked his beard, "The Zhang family in the north did not continue to go north, and Wang Huo did not attack the Zhang family. The two families are in peace now, and they bought us time."

Yang Xixuan curled his lips, "So they are all good people!"

Ming Chen, "."

Is it not that the lord has too many hole cards, because he has enough hole cards to seize all the opportunities?

In the capital city, the door of Ye Shun's family was knocked countless times today, all of them were neighbors who came to borrow food. After a few days, the food storage of the neighbors was completely empty.

Qi San's face turned yellow, he had eaten too little in the past two days, "Uncle, if we can't buy more food, the city will be in chaos."

Ye Shun was lying on the chair, and the meat he had managed to raise in the past few days had lost weight again. His stomach was a big sin, and he couldn't raise it well in the future, "It won't be messy."

Qi San, "Huh?"

Ye Shun covered his stomach with one hand, the heat from his palm eased the discomfort in his stomach, "People in Zhang's family are panicking when they go north to the capital. The emperor's forced requisition does mean to ask for food empty-handed, but the main purpose is to let the people realize that the emperor still controls the capital. Just wait, there will be shops selling food in a few days."

Geng Ningxi was speechless, "We stole the food and asked the common people to buy it back?"

Ye Shun's tone was sarcastic, "Our emperor will stop pretending, so naturally he won't distribute relief food to win the hearts of the people. The emperor is more willing to use strong methods to oppress the people."

Geng Ningxi shivered, "Don't you have no scruples?"

Ye Shun said in a low tone, "As long as you win, what about the brutal process of taking power? History is always written for the victors."

Qi San got up and went out to have a look, but ran back after a while, "Uncle, the emperor copied Mr. Shen's house."

Ye Shun sat up straight, "Has the house been ransacked?"

Qi San's face was ugly, "Well, all the male heirs have been arrested, and the soldiers didn't even spare the young children."

Ye Shun scratched his hair a little irritably, he guessed that Wang Huo would find someone to show his prestige, but he didn't expect it to be the Shen family.

Qi San asked, "Uncle, what shall we do?"

Ye Shun sat back on the chair again, "We could have saved the heirs of the Shen family if we got the news earlier, but I can't help it now."

He guessed in his heart, would the Shen family have taken refuge in the Zhang family long ago?

In the south, Yang Xi and his party went to the valley. The team was not in a hurry to enter the valley. Zhou Yu and his wife got out of the carriage and looked ahead. Countless manpower was used to mine the road in the valley, and the mountain road was not easy to mine. The road is not wide, and the mountains on both sides It is very steep, there are many strange rocks on the mountain, and it is an excellent location for setting natural traps.

Yang Xi pointed to the top of the mountain, "I'm afraid that gunpowder is buried on it."

Zhou Yu was also afraid that once their team was broken up, the couple would be in danger. "In addition to this road, the other is the mountain road. Once it rains, the mountain road on rainy days is even more dangerous."

Yang Xi weighed the pros and cons in his heart, "The valley is safer."

Zhou Yu called Cheng Jin and asked him to send someone to check both sides carefully, and he must check carefully.

The third son of Li did not speak out until the arrangement was completed, "After passing here, you can take the waterway, the waterway is safer."

Yang Xi shook his head, "That's not necessarily true. There are many gangs on the waterways, and the canal has nourished many forces over the years."

Mr. Li San rubbed his nose, "I will definitely clean it up next year."

Yang Xi's heart moved, it is indeed convenient to control the water, but she is even more rare about the ships transporting goods on the canal.

As the sky was getting darker, the personnel sent by Cheng Jin came back one after another. Not only did they find the place where the gunpowder was buried, but also a lot of stones were hidden.

Yang Xi was afraid, "Fortunately, we are careful enough."

Zhou Yu had already disassembled the gunpowder, squinted his eyes, "It is indeed gunpowder."

The two avoided talking to Mr. Li San. They didn't want Mr. Li to discover the secret of their knowledge of gunpowder.

Zhou Yu repacked the gunpowder and told Cheng Jin, "Store it carefully, we might use it for the next journey."

Cheng Jin went out with the gunpowder. It was dark now, and the team planned to check the valley again tomorrow.

The camp was soon filled with the aroma of food, which was torture for the dead soldiers who had been guarding for many days. The leader of this group of dead soldiers stared at the fire below the mountain expressionlessly.

Their group of hundreds of dead soldiers has been folded in half of them one after another. All the foolproof strategies in the past have all failed, and now he has not only failed to take action himself, but also lost the gunpowder.

The leader of the dead soldiers has gone numb, this is the first time he has encountered such a cautious prey!

The leader of the dead soldiers gritted his teeth, "Withdraw."

A strong sense of frustration pervades the ranks as they cast doubt on years of training.

If Yang Xi and his wife knew about it, they would definitely tell them that it would be even more difficult for them to assassinate in the future, because their husband and wife had already written a lot of assassin's ways.

By the time Yang Xi and his wife took the waterway, Yang Xi and his wife had already sent some articles back to Jiaozhou.

In Jiaozhou, Yang Xixuan was a little stunned by the stack of articles in front of him, "Aren't sister and brother-in-law going to propose marriage?"

How do you feel that my sister and brother-in-law have written articles all the way?

Ming Chen likes the articles written by the two gentlemen very much. He can get a lot of inspiration from the articles, and the Lord recognizes the articles of the two gentlemen. He can guess the thoughts of the Lord after studying them clearly. ?”

Yang Xixuan has already looked through the articles roughly. Some of them describe the hardships of the people in Yizhou, and some of them also write about their experiences along the way. There are also a few pictures attached to it. The last one is interesting, it is all about the assassins!

After Yang Xixuan nodded, he first read the article about assassins. He knew that his sister and brother-in-law were in danger all the way. The news he received was too brief, and now he wrote it into an article in detail. Get angry!
