Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 818 Evil has evil retribution
Coming out of Gao Ying's place, Yan Mu felt a little depressed, and walked forward without saying a word.Liu Yunxiang walked beside him, knowing what was on his mind, so he didn't bother him at the moment.

When we got to the street, it was already evening, unexpectedly there were still many people, they crowded one by one to form a human wall, all looking up in one direction, as if waiting for something.

They blocked the road, Liu Yunxiang and the others had no choice but to stop.

"What have you prepared?"

There were two women talking next to each other, each carrying a basket with excited expressions on their faces.

"What have you prepared?"

The two women asked each other, and they smiled, and each removed the cloth covering the basket.One basket contained rotten cabbage leaves, and the other contained cow dung. Seeing each other's baskets, the two laughed even more happily.

They are?

When Liu Yunxiang was puzzled, a woman came over with a bucket of swill. The fermented swill smelled so bad that it made people sick.Liu Yunxiang took out a handkerchief to cover his lips and nose, and stepped back two steps to the side.

"Oh, how many days have you kept this swill?"

"Just scooped it out of the stinky ditch in front of our street," the woman replied.

Upon hearing this, the original two women took a step back.

"There's shit, urine, everything in here."

"You can do it!"

The woman gritted her teeth and said: "Back then he forced my family to pay the [-]% more tax, but my husband refused to pay it, and was crippled by the officials he brought. Then they ran into my house like robbers and snatched the remaining [-]% tax. Ration, that really doesn’t give us a way to survive. There is no other way, I can only sell my second daughter for some food, in order to save more for the children, my mother-in-law starved herself to death.”

When it came to that time, the woman hated and felt sad, "It's just a bucket of slop, so I'll let him go lightly."

Hearing this, the other two women sighed again and again.

Liu Yunxiang probably guessed it, and sure enough, not long after, two carriages came, one in front with white silk hanging on it, and one behind, pulling a coffin.It's just that the coffin was full of rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, and even the officials who saw him off were not spared.

Liu Yunxiang asked Yan Mu beside him in a low voice, "Is this to transport Li Huai's body back to his hometown?"

Yan Mu shook his head, "His hometown is in Nanbian Prefecture, and it would take at least a month to get there from Yanzhou. But now that it's summer, it gets hotter as you go south, and the corpse won't last for a few days."

"Why not be buried in Yanzhou first?"

They are buried in Yanzhou first, and after a few years, the bones are dug out and brought back to their hometown for burial. This is usually the case.

Yan Mu snorted, "The Li family also thinks about it, but the people of Yanzhou hate him so much, if he is buried here, I'm afraid he will end up digging up the grave and destroying the coffin, dragging the body out and dismembering him."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, and couldn't help shivering.

"How about that?"

"Pull it elsewhere and bury it secretly. But let's see if Li Huai's family has the heart. If they have the heart, they will dig him out and bring him back to his hometown in a few years. If they don't, he can only be a lonely ghost over there."

Liu Yunxiang exhaled, "Evil comes with evil!"

He has caused so many ruins, and this fate is his retribution!

As soon as the carriage pulling the coffin came, the people became furious, throwing rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and cow dung, anyway, they all threw them on the coffin.

The officials on both sides learned to be smart, and immediately dodged, even the coachman who drove the carriage threw down the carriage and escaped.

"Li Huai! Lord Yan has accepted you, you are waiting to go down to the [-]th floor of hell!"

"How many life debts do you owe, can you figure it out yourself? Going up the mountain of knives and down the pan of oil will not atone for your sins!"

"You want to get out of Yanzhou safely? No way! You owe us Yanzhou, do you have to pay it back!"

Someone was so angry that he took a kitchen knife and chopped at the coffin.The coffin is a high-quality nanmu coffin. After a few chops, it really can't be cut.The man gritted his teeth and chopped off the wheels of the carriage.

Taking advantage of the time, the woman carrying the swill went up and poured a large bucket of disgusting dirty things on it.

The smell was so bad that the people standing on both sides were sick again and again.

In the carriage in front, Mrs. Li should be sitting. She was so frightened that she left the coffin behind and ran away.

When Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu left, the people were still venting their anger.

Seeing that Yan Mu's expression was not very good, Liu Yunxiang asked him if he was affected by the stench.

Yan Mu shook his head: "Li Huai has harmed so many people and aroused so much public indignation, but in the final analysis, it is the imperial court who indulges him, the fatuous monarch sitting in the highest position."

"Yes, and Li Huai is just a microcosm. I don't know how many Li Huai there are in Darong. The constant civil strife in various places is the consequence of allowing officials like Li Huai to harm the people, but there is Yang He in Yanzhou, but Darong has not changed. Many Yang Hes."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other, and they understood each other's thoughts with just one glance.

Yan Mu took Liu Yunxiang's hand and pulled her forward together.

Facing the sunset, the sky is getting darker and darker, but without the night, how can we look forward to the dawn.

It only took five days for Gao Ying to complete all ten account books, and the 100 million taels were hidden in these accounts, but according to what Yan Mu said, it was not too tightly hidden.

"We will leave for Beijing tomorrow, and Yang He's case cannot be delayed any longer," Yan Mu said at night.

Liu Yunxiang mentioned something to him before, but he didn't agree with it, so she could only mention it again: "Although our brocade workshop is on the right track, the brocade industry in Jiangnan is still in a slump. I promise the emperor's business tax, I'm afraid it will become empty talk .I have to go to Yangzhou and personally visit the bosses of those brocade workshops, those cloth merchants, and ask them to take root in Yangzhou again.”

"But you are inconvenient now."

"It's only been more than three months, and I haven't reached the stage of being clumsy. If it is a few months later, it will really be impossible, so I have to take advantage of this time to go."

"Although the Nanzhou rebellion is peaceful, it is still dangerous."

"You forgot, our Zhenbei Army is in Nanzhou."

Yan Mu looked at Liu Yunxiang, knowing that she valued her career, and knew that she had her own considerations. If he used to be strong enough to stop her, but now he admits her ability, even admires and admires her. He doesn't think he has much Powerful, but Liu Yunxiang is great in his heart.

When he was tired and helpless, he even began to rely on her.

"Let Zijin and Feng Zheng go with you."

"it is good."

"I will place more hidden guards by your side."

"Ah."

"Once you pass the Yangtze River, immediately contact the Zhenbei Army and let them protect you."

"I know."

Liu Yunxiang held Yan Mu's hand, "Two months at most, I will return to Beijing as soon as possible."

Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang sent Yan Mu away from Yanzhou first, but she would stay for two more days.

"Girl, are we going to find Boss Gao?" Zijin asked with a sigh.

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Although Boss Gao is stubborn, she is also a businessman. If it is profitable, she has no reason to refuse the business."
