Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Accompanied by his ministers, Qingji went to inspect the kitchen shed on the side of the construction site.

The rations of the Kunlun slaves are two meals a day, and the dishes are not generally bad.

Not to mention the lack of water in the clear soup, there are only scattered vegetable leaves floating on the porridge in the pot, which is really hard to swallow when people look at it.

Not the slightest bit of meaty smell!
No oil!

"This……"

Seeing this kind of food for the first time, Young Master Hong couldn't help being a little stunned.

Is this for people to eat?
It's clearly pig food!
Even the disaster victims in some parts of the Wu Kingdom cannot eat this kind of porridge, let alone the Kunlun slaves who have to undertake heavy labor every day?

"Father, my son thinks that it is necessary to improve the quality of food at the construction site."

"If not, how can these Kunlun slaves have the strength to work? I'm afraid that many Kunlun slaves will starve to death every once in a while. The gain outweighs the loss."

This time, I really can't blame Young Master Hong for being too merciful.

Even Qingji thought that Wu Guo had gone too far in terms of food for the Kunlun slaves.

You must know that Wu Guocang has enough money, and the treasury is piled up like a mountain. How can there be such a small amount of rations?
No wonder, before Qingji saw that the Kunlun slaves were working on the construction site, most of them were so hungry that their eyes turned white and their bones were skinny. They were hungry!
Every now and then, the bodies of Kunlun slaves would be carried to mass graves.

Some of them were not exhausted to death, but starved to death...

"Tian Rangju, what do you think? Do you want to improve the food of Kunlun slaves?"

Qingji glanced at Tian Rangju who was following beside him.

"Your Majesty, I think it's wrong."

Tian Rangju thought for a while, then frowned and replied: "Right now, there are more than [-] Kunlun slaves working on the construction site in Luoyin City alone."

"Not to mention how much the state needs to spend to improve their food, there are so many Kunlun slaves, some are docile and some are rebellious, if they are fed enough, I am worried that troubles may arise, and there will be quite a lot of trouble. "

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

As soon as Tian Rangju's words fell, Gong Zixi said: "Father, my son thinks what Tian Zi said is very true."

"After all, Kunlun slaves are not the same as other civilian husbands. If they are fed and drunk, there will be some undue thoughts, and then I am afraid that it will lead to a catastrophe."

"good."

Qingji nodded in agreement.

Young Master Hong shook his head and said: "Father, my son thinks that they should improve their food."

"Kunlun slaves don't need to eat and drink enough, but they must have some oily meat, half full is enough, so that they have enough energy to work, so as not to waste labor and cause more unnecessary losses."

In Qing Ji's view, Gong Zihong's proposition is still advisable.

A person who is half full will not make progress.

After all, Kunlun slaves are not real animals, but living people!
Wu Guo can't treat Kunlun slaves like real animals!

Qingji immediately adopted Gongzihong's suggestion to improve the food of the Kunlun slaves, so that they can devote more energy to work and reduce unnecessary deaths.

After patrolling Luoyin City, Qingji's patrol team went south all the way to Chongcheng.

What is unknown is that when night fell, a hand crawled out from the pile of dead people in the distance of the Luoyin construction site, at the mass graves.

The corpses in the mass grave had been piled up, exuding a scorching smell, and white bones were placed in it.

In order to prevent the plague, the corpses in the mass graves are burned every few days.

Even some Kunlun slaves who contracted diseases and could not be treated would be thrown into the mass graves.

At this moment, Wu Nava, who everyone thought was dead, crawled out slowly while clutching his chest that had stopped bleeding.

His face was full of hatred, and his eyes were like beasts, exuding a terrifying killing intent.

"Qingji... Wu Guo! Wait! I will definitely take revenge!"

"revenge!"

The hoarse voice echoed in the silent mountain forest for a long time.

One or two Kunlun slaves who were not completely dead, heard this somewhat familiar language, and yelled a few times, not knowing what to say.

……

The next day.

The sun is shining and the sky is clear.

At this time, Qingji was having a banquet with the officials and the leaders of the Rongdi tribe in a wilderness on the outskirts of Chongcheng.

Rong Di is an aborigine of Sanchuan County. Although the population is less than [-], Qingji needs to rely on them to raise war horses for Wu, so he can treat them equally like the people of the country.

However, when Qingji was having a banquet with a group of tribal leaders, an unpleasant incident happened.

The leader of Lu Hunrong, Xi Chengyu, was slightly drunk, so he took advantage of the alcohol to build up his courage, bowed to Qingji on the Sifangtai and hugged his chest, and said, "My lord, it's just you Coming to Sanchuan County, I have something to say, I really don’t want to vomit, so please make it clear, Your Majesty!"

"please say."

"Your Majesty, three days ago, a tribe of ours, Lu Hunrong, was attacked by hundreds of bandits. In addition to the fierce battle, 27 people of ours, Lu Hunrong, were killed, and there were countless injured. Please help Lu Hunrong Be the master, execute all those thieves and bandits to make an example to others!"

"..."

Qingji couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

A battle of hundreds, or even thousands of people?
Such a big matter cannot be covered no matter what.

But to this day, Qingji has not received any news.

This had to make Qingji suspicious of Tian Rangju.

After all, Tian Rangju now holds several positions. He is not only the general of Zhenbei in the state of Wu, but also the governor of Sanchuan County, and he also has the title of governor of the capital.

Although Tian Rangju's authority is great, it is equivalent to a party's feudal official, but such a major incident of fighting, how dare Tian Rangju not report to Qing Ji?
"Tian Rangju, is there such a thing?"

Seeing Qingji's suspicious gaze, Tian Rangju had no choice but to stand up, and then bowed to Qingji and said, "My lord, there is indeed something wrong. However, the people who attacked Lu Hunrong's tribe were not bandits. It's Li Shu who migrated from Nanyang and Nanjun."

"I don't dare to hide such a big civil fight. It's just... there is a reason for it."

"The tribe of Lu Hunrong first insulted the relocated people, wounded or even disabled more than a dozen people, and the relatives and neighbors of those disabled people were also angry for a while, so they shot in anger, and Lu Hunrong's That tribe fought."

"There were casualties on both sides, but they were stopped by officers and soldiers in time. Now nearly a thousand people have been detained and awaiting punishment."

Tian Rangju does things quite well.

For such a big matter, it is natural to wait for Qingji's instructions before daring to deal with it.

It seems that Tian Rangju is still on the side of the adherents of the old Chu.

At this time, as the leader of the Yinrong tribe who has a good relationship with Lu Hunrong, Taojia stood up and said: "My lord, although Lu Hunrong provoked those Chu people first, it was the Chu people who started the war first. Most of the dead and injured are still Lu Hunrong!"

"I also ask the king to distinguish right from wrong, make decisions for Lu Hunrong, and release Lu Hunrong who is still in prison."
