Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 255 Guess

Xiong Lianghong wanted to see fear on Chen Qingsi's face, but was disappointed.

Chen Qingsi still maintains the same posture, and even the frequency of tapping the table with her fingers has not changed.

It’s still a little bit!

Duh, duh, duh!

The heart of the one who knocks is in confusion.

Xiong Lianghong felt extremely irritated and was about to say something when Chen Qingsi retreated. The noisy and regular sounds outside suddenly became chaotic, with a little exclamation, and then became silent again.

Chen Qingsi's posture remained unchanged, and the sound of tapping on the table was repeated.

An uneasiness welled up in my heart.

"Who is making a noise outside!"

Xiong Lianghong shouted angrily and strode out of the hall.

Chen Qingsi didn't stop him and let him leave.

Xiong Lianghong stepped out of the lobby threshold, but there was darkness in front of him, on a person.

Xiong Lianghong was not tall, so he plunged into the man's chest. It didn't hurt when I bumped into it, it felt soft and soft, like I bumped into a big cotton cushion.

Then he was thrown backwards by the rebound, and sat down on the ground...

Only then could it be seen clearly that the man was broad-shouldered, round-waisted, and had a muscular body. He was none other than Huang Heshou, the governor of the two Lingxia prefectures.

Xiong Lianghong's face was ashen. How could he not know what Huang Heshou's appearance meant?

It turns out that all this has been planned by the other party.

Huang Heshou looked at Xiong Lianghong underground and said apologetically: "Oh, Governor Xiong, why are you so impatient? You're not hurt."

He stepped forward to help Xiong Lianghong up, then looked at Chen Qingsi who was standing above him, and said with surprise: "Mr. Chen, why are you doing this again? What a coincidence, I have something to talk to my husband about! I came to the Xiazhou Military Camp for inspection and wanted to Today is the fifth day of the lunar month, when the market is opening. The soldiers under my command followed a certain leader and drove straight into Mobei. After hard work, they led them to the city to eat wontons. They found a group of unruly people angrily charging towards the government office of the state to kill them. "

As he spoke, he slapped his thigh suddenly and shouted: "You damn thing, you dare to attack the state government office, which is tantamount to rebellion. I took them all down first, come in to see the situation, and ask what happened?"

Huang Heshou displayed all the cause and effect by blowing his beard and staring with his poor acting skills that he thought he was very good at.

Chen Qingsi did not dislike his acting skills and responded: "Captain Huang came at the right time. This group of treacherous gangsters were doing evil in Xiazhou and oppressing the people. I captured them today. Those people outside the house must have heard the news and thought You want to attack the Yamen of the state capital and steal people from me. If it weren’t for Governor Huang, I’m afraid this group of thieves would have succeeded.”

"No reason!"

Huang Heshou shouted angrily, he was really angry.

A warrior like him has clear grudges.

Chen Qingsi had a good relationship with him. When he learned that the group of people outside the house were actually forcing him to come, he immediately regretted that he had acted lightly. He looked at Xiong Lianghong and the seven people kneeling on the ground and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, Huang is here today. You can interrogate them as you should and see who dares to mess around."

His drink was more powerful than Liu Chuang's.

Yuan Feng and Yang Yanying, two old guys, couldn't support it due to their age, so they relied on the belief of "forcing the uterus" to support themselves.

Now the hope was dashed and the "forced palace" failed. Instead, Huang Heshou was given a fright.

The two fell to the ground one after the other.

Yuan Feng fainted, and Yang Yanying's energy and blood immediately surged, and she convulsed and died.

Chi Ganbo could not bear the pressure and shouted: "Excuse me!"

"The appeasement makes people forgive their sins, and the common people are willing to recruit, and the common people are willing to recruit!"

He shouted and kowtowed.

Chen Qingsi ignored it and just said indifferently: "Just wait, your fate does not depend on what you recruit, but on what you do." After Chen Qingsi finished speaking, she smiled at Huang Heshou and said: "Captain Huang is whatever sit."

Huang Heshou nodded and sat down on the mat at the head.

Until three minutes later, Di Renjie and Cheng Boxian came in a hurry.

Chen Qingsi looked at the two of them and said, "How is the situation?"

Di Renjie said: "They were all demolished, totaling 121 waterwheels."

Chen Qingsi nodded, the number was more than Zuoqiu said, and asked: "How is the operation of the waterwheel? Is it still running during the Spring Festival?"

Di Renjie said with anger in his tone: "It's still running, no, it should be said that it's all running. They are going to completely cut off the water source downstream..."

Chen Qingsi squinted her eyes, looked at the seven people and one corpse below, and smiled angrily: "Ha, one of them is not working, does this mean you are not working?"

"Return to the messenger!"

This time it was Liu Chuang who spoke. At this time, he finally got scared and said, "This common man really doesn't know. The people below must have taken over the private work and opened it privately."

"Shut up!"

Chen Qingsi shook her head and said, "You think I'm a three-year-old child, so easy to fool?"

He rubbed his hands and said: "I am still a little soft-hearted towards you. I thought you were just selfish and didn't plan to kill you all. I just wanted to accuse Baili Anrong of building a water tank upstream. Those beasts in the car should be brought to justice. Others should be severely punished..."

"Before Baili Anrong comes to complain, you can be considered ignorant. Those who don't know are not to blame!"

"Anyone who remains stubborn after the Baili Anrong incident has committed a heinous crime and despises human life and should be punished!"

"Now...I suddenly thought of a question."

"You really know nothing about everything?"

"Xiazhou is very large. Most of the place is surrounded by yellow sand and does not produce grains. Only the two sides of the Yellow River and the Sheyan River have land that can be cultivated. The seven of you control the vast majority of the fertile land on both sides of the Yellow River. The state Sixty percent of the farmers will serve you."

"The remaining 40% should be cultivated in the fields downstream of Sheyan River, right?"

"The water tanker cut off the water source in the middle and lower reaches, making it impossible for the remaining farmers to make a living. I will sell the fields to you at a low price and become your tenants."

"Then you dismantle the water tanker, and all the arable land in Xiazhou will be controlled by your seven families!"

"I don't know if my idea makes any sense... On the surface, you are just fighting each other and rushing to build waterwheels."

"Is it really just a matter of breath, or has it been agreed upon a long time ago, just to show off, to fool the fool! How to allocate it in private, has been decided a long time ago?"

When Xiong Lianghong heard this, he stood stunned on the spot.

Chen Qingsi's voice became colder as he spoke, "Of course, all of this is my personal speculation and there is no evidence. You can pray now that you don't really have such thoughts..."

He looked at Huang Heshou and said, "Captain Huang, this is an extraordinary time. Can you lend me some people?"

Huang Heshou naturally agreed: "Huang hates people who oppress the people the most. As the governor of Lingxia, he also has the obligation to protect the security of the state capital."

Chen Qingsi said: "Captain Huang immediately took over the city defense of Xiazhou and conducted routine inspections on all people leaving the city. No one with the seven surnames was allowed to leave the city. Bo Xian, you will lead people to bring the seven surnames Yuan, Liu, Yan, Wang, Yang, Chigan, and Yao The mansion is surrounded and no one is allowed in but not out.”

"Huaiying, I leave it to you to get to the bottom of it!!!"
