Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1397 What's the use of keeping you
"His Royal Highness ordered that whoever can kill the assassin will be rewarded with a hundred guan."

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward. Ma Zhou understands this truth very well. Since they can't last long now, just mess up the situation.

These people do not have much force, but they are superior in numbers.

And they are very poor now, a hundred pennies is a lot, they definitely want it.

For the money, they will also come to gamble, right?
And that's exactly what happened.

Just after Ma Zhou yelled, the refugees who were still fleeing in all directions stopped suddenly, and then they rushed towards the assassins.

Money is sometimes fatal to the attraction of people.

Especially when there is a lot of money.

The refugees rushed towards the assassins, and the assassins' hearts sank when they saw this situation.

They are very powerful, but facing so many refugees, and they are also crazy refugees for money, with their small number of people, they may not be able to withstand much.

They might not be able to kill Li Chengqian today.

Their guess was right, when these refugees rushed over, they really couldn't kill Li Chengqian.

Not only could they not kill Li Chengqian, they couldn't even escape if they wanted to.

Each of them is worth a hundred coins. What can't these poor and crazy refugees do for money?
An assassin wanted to escape, but was chased by a group of refugees. In front, another group of refugees intercepted him, giving him no chance to escape.

Soon, after the assassin was besieged by the refugees, there was a burst of punching and kicking. By the time the people dispersed, the assassin had already been beaten to death. Not only was he killed, but he was also covered in scars all over his body.

Miserable, very miserable.

The assassin who was still in the upper hand was quickly killed by those refugees.

And at this moment, the gate of the governor's residence suddenly opened, and Bagu rushed out with a look of shock.

"What's going on, what's going on, oops, Your Highness, I'm late, I'm late, please forgive me..."

Bagu seemed to have just realized what was going on, and gave the impression that he was too late to save his life.

However, only he himself knew that he just wanted those assassins to kill Prince Li Chengqian. It was only after seeing that those assassins couldn't kill him that he rushed out.

Although the prince Li Chengqian died here, he could not escape, but for Li Ke, it was the best thing. Li Ke was kind to him, and even if he died, he would help Li Ke to do it.

It's just a pity that Li Chengqian's life is a bit big.

It didn't even die.

He slightly raised his head and glanced at Ma Zhou, with some sadness in his eyes, if it wasn't for Ma Zhou, Li Chengqian might have died here today.

Bagu was ready to accept punishment, the worst would be to be scolded by Li Chengqian, he was shameless and didn't think it was a big deal.

But when Bagu was thinking this way, Li Chengqian's face turned a little scary, and a murderous look erupted in his eyes, and Bagu's heart sank suddenly.

At this time, Li Chengqian said: "The dignified governor, he didn't come out when the crown prince was in danger, but he came after the danger passed. What's the use of the crown prince keeping you, come here and kill him."

Li Chengqian was very angry. Originally, he wanted to stay with Bagu for a while and ask him for some news, but these behaviors of Bagu really made him so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

After Li Chengqian said this, Bagu was dumbfounded, and his whole body trembled suddenly. Why did he want to kill someone if he didn't agree with each other?
Even Li Shimin, he wouldn't see him like this, right?

"His Royal Highness, you...you can't be like this, I'm just late to save you."

Li Chengqian snorted: "Rescue came too late? I think you are conspiring with the assassin. If you dare to harm the prince, you will be killed without mercy."

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, before Bagu could make any further excuses, a guard next to him suddenly made a move and slashed at Bagu.

Na Bagu's eyes widened, he was about to say something, but it was too late, he heard a scream, and his head was chopped off by the guards.

Seeing this situation, Biejia and the chief secretary of the governor's mansion couldn't help but shudder. They didn't expect Li Chengqian to be unambiguous at all when he killed someone.

Today, they can be regarded as seeing the domineering king.

After the murder, Li Chengqian didn't stay long, and went directly into the governor's mansion. Don't dare to hesitate and the others trotted behind.

After arriving at the hall, Li Chengqian stopped. He glanced at it and asked, "Where are you?"

Soon, a man stood up and said, "His Royal Highness, the next official is Bazhong City, He Bu."

Li Chengqian nodded: "From now on, you will be in charge of the Governor's Mansion for the time being."

"Here!"

Originally, He Bu was a little worried, but when he heard that he was asked to take charge of the Governor's Mansion temporarily, he suddenly became a little excited. Isn't this a disguised promotion?

"The prince came to ask you, why is the water in Bazhong consumed so slowly? It has been almost a month since it rained. The water level has not gone down, but is there something blocking it?"

If you want to provide disaster relief, the first thing you need to do is to dispose of the water. After the water is disposed of, the people can live a normal life and even carry out trade. As long as there is trade, a city will recover quickly.

If the water is not clear, the merchants outside can't come in, and the merchants inside can't get out, and the place will become more and more deserted.

There is a saying that if you want to be rich, you must first build roads. Now that the roads are covered by water, it may not be easy to become rich.

Li Chengqian asked, and He Bu quickly replied: "His Royal Highness, the analysis is good. The water level has not dropped for a long time. It is indeed because a place is blocked. At a mountain pass in our Bazhong, there is a huge stone. The way the water flows down is blocked. It can be said that the blockage is very tight. The slow speed of the water flow is unbearable. If the stone can be pushed down, the water in Bazhong will be It flows directly into the river below, and is even used to irrigate the land."

He Bu told Li Chengqian about the situation, but after Li Chengqian heard it, he was a little puzzled and asked, "Since you know what the problem is, how long has it been, why didn't you take action and push that boulder down?"

At this time, not only Li Chengqian was a little angry, but Ma Zhou was also very angry.

If you can't find the problem, then there's nothing to say about you, but since you have found the problem, but still haven't solved it, then it's your problem.

Being questioned by Li Chengqian in this way, He Bu immediately looked aggrieved, and said, "Your Highness, it is because we don't want to do it, but we can't do it, and there is nothing we can do."
