Rebirth Jade Fate

Chapter 136 Robbery
Wu Shaoyang stuffed a black cornbread to a child, kicked the ground under his feet, cursed secretly, and muttered: "The food from the imperial court is not enough for us to stuff our teeth, so many of us have died, he The fucking bastard just gave no one a handful of food."

The second-in-command beside him was full of anger, "Boss, let's go for a big ticket this time. Those people from Lianhe Mountain went to the city. Didn't they say that the Shi family has stockpiled a lot of food?"

Another person hesitated and said: "This is not good. Didn't the fourth prince send General Ren back to the capital to raise food? The Shi family is not an ordinary family. If they are caught, they will be beheaded."

"The fourth prince has long been rejected by the emperor, so he was sent to relieve the disaster. I have heard that the emperor's favorite is the sixth prince. If the imperial court really wants to provide disaster relief, it will not take so long to ignore us. Look at us. How many people have died, and they only sent the fourth prince, why didn't they send the sixth prince? I only have this old son left now, and I can't starve to death anymore."

The people around all showed sadness when they heard this. In this disaster, no one has not lost their family members, especially those old people and children, who are often the first to die.

The food distributed by the imperial court had already been eaten up. The fourth prince always said that there was still food, but seeing the other party's dirty appearance, he knew that he was just comforting them. The imperial court would definitely not give them food.

The will to survive burst out in the eyes of the victims, and one person stood up and shouted: "Brother Wu, take us there, we will be the ones who die or live."

That was the trigger, and one stood up, and the others followed suit, shouting, "Yeah, yeah, take us, the kids are dying!"

Wu Shaoyang gritted his teeth, "Okay! I'll take you there, but it's an agreement. We only take food, and we don't allow people to be hurt, especially women and children. If anyone hurts someone, I won't protect him when he comes out."

Everyone nodded. In the minds of the victims, Wu Shaoyang had been outside and was very loyal. If it wasn't for his mother and his elder brother's family, he would have left long ago.Just because he talks about loyalty, everyone likes to hang out with him.

At night, like all the nights before, the Shi family is a big family in Anhui. When people are starving to death and eating people outside, they can’t count as nightly singing and singing, but the life is not affected much. As usual, the whole family has dinner Afterwards, everyone returned to their respective houses, and the young masters went to find concubines for entertainment, while the wives and girls went back to their rooms, doing what they should do.

Someone knocked lightly on the corner door of Shi's house, and the person inside the door muttered a few times, "Who is it, it's late at night, it must be messing around outside again, why do you say..." the door He just opened a gap, but was pushed away vigorously, and before the boy guarding the corner gate had time to call for help, his mouth was pinched and his neck was knocked, and he passed out.

The third person behind Wu Shaoyang quickly dodged in to cover the mouth of the other gatekeeper, knocking him out.On the contrary, the second-in-command who yelled the loudest during the day looked at the neat movements of the two with cold hands and feet, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart. Also so powerful?

Before he had time to think, the people behind him pushed him through the door.

Wu Shaoyang instructed them in a soft voice, and then said: "There is a warehouse on the west side, and all the food is there. Everyone takes it and leaves. If you see someone on the road, you will be knocked out. Remember, you have to be fast, and hide as soon as you go out. The Shi family is definitely not there. Method."

Everyone nodded and ran towards the warehouse to the west.

But it turns out that the mob is just the mob. They were discovered within two steps. The woman who was the first to find out yelled, and the victims would not stop. Step on that woman...

Several warehouses are put together. The boss said that the third and fourth warehouses are for food. Just looking at so many warehouses, people's greed is unstoppable. Greed flashed in someone's eyes and they grabbed it. The keys in the hands of those women open all the warehouses.

Each house in the Shi family has its own warehouse, and the public house has its own warehouse. The warehouses on the west side are part of the public house, and the other part is on the east side.There were five or six hundred victims who followed, which is still a small number, but even with this small number, the Shi family had no choice. When the Patriarch of the Shi family heard the news that he was going west, something happened in the east.

Wu Shaoyang looked at the fire rising into the sky in the east, frowned slightly, glanced at the messy scene, and asked, "Why are there still people in the east?"

The third child narrowed his eyes, his face was still timid, but he said firmly: "It's not our people, it seems to be faster than us, maybe it's just a coincidence."

Wu Shaoyang saw that the victims had already started to fight for the food, even bleeding, and said quickly, "I'm afraid that all the big households in Anhui will suffer."

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the third child, "It's what you deserve."

Wu Shaoyang hurriedly came forward, "Stop arguing, let's go out and talk, there are people on the east side, and the people from the imperial court are coming soon, if you don't want to be caught and beheaded, go away."

When everyone heard this sentence, their rationality returned slightly, and they all carried their things and walked out.

The next day, the news that the Shi family was robbed by the victims spread all over the streets and alleys. What Wu Shaoyang didn't expect was that two of the Shi family's disciples died this time.

The head of the Shi family was furious, and ran to the Yamen to demand that the bandits be suppressed, and the fourth prince happened to be there.Although the patriarch of the Shi family was courteous to the fourth prince, it was not considered respectful.

The fourth prince had no choice but to tell him with a bitter face that they had soldiers, but no military pay, and all the food they brought was distributed to the victims.

The Patriarch of the Shi Family was furious, "Fourth Prince, those disaster victims are bandits and robbers, and they deserve to be hacked into pieces. Not only did you not arrest them, but you also gave them food. Isn't that messy enough?"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the fourth prince, put away the gentle smile on his face, and said with a sneer: "His Royal Highness does not agree with Mr. Shi's words. The people in this world are all the subjects of the father. The provincial officials did not talk about disaster relief, but dared to conceal it and not report it. Now that the father does not pursue the crimes of those officials, is it necessary to punish the victims of the disaster? Is it true that in the eyes of Master Shi, the father is so indiscriminate , a reckless emperor?"

Lord Shi's expression changed slightly, "The fourth prince is serious. I was just annoyed by those disaster victims last night. I hope the fourth prince Haihan."

The fourth prince frowned and said: "Lord Shi, it is better to be cautious. Whether what happened last night was the work of the victims is still open to question. My Highness heard that there was a group of bandits on the nearby mountain, and they have not been killed. Maybe they are What we did." Speaking of this, he sighed again, "It's a pity that we don't have military pay, even if we want to avenge the Lord, we can't."

Lord Shi gritted his teeth with hatred, did the fourth prince know something, or did he simply suspect the bandits on the mountain?
No, they must be transferred. Their Shi family has developed to this point with great difficulty, and absolutely nothing will happen.The fourth prince is just a boy who has not reached the weak crown, so is he still afraid of him?

The fourth prince returned to his place, and said to Dou Rong: "The Shi family is really not simple, the matter is much more complicated than we imagined, and the bandits on the mountain may have some connection with them."

"Do you want to send someone to sneak in and take a look?"

The fourth prince shook his head and said: "I have sent people to try it, but they are very strict in reviewing, and I can't get in in a short time. At first, I suspected that it was a masterpiece of some brother. Looking at the situation in the past few days, it turns out It is the Shi family's own plan, maybe there are other aristocratic families participating in it."

Dou Rong sneered, "Should the Shi family say that they are bold, or that they have no brains? Even the four kings dare not think about it. They, a small local family, are so whimsical."

"That's why I'm worried about which brother wrote it." The fourth prince walked a few steps and said, "I'd better send someone to watch over it."

Dou Rong nodded, "I thought the Shi family would suffer a major blow this time, so as to confuse the affairs in Anhui, but I didn't expect that the Shi family's base camp has a name, and they should have another place to store important things. This little loss won't do much harm to the Shi family."

"Don't worry, there are hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in Anhui, and there are so many in Henan. There will always be a time to find them." Thinking of the news he heard today, the fourth prince ordered: "Let Wu Shaoyang choose his target carefully, and try his best." Choose those who have their lives in their hands." The fourth prince's face is very ugly, "I was just interested in flipping through the criminal records here, but I didn't expect it to become so chaotic. You must know that the prince died only eight years ago."

Dou Rong didn't speak anymore. When the prince was there, he paid great attention to suppressing the family. Perhaps those families were afraid of being beaten when the first emperor was there. They had an instinctive way of avoiding the prince. Dare to go too far, but once the prince died, the emperor couldn't suppress these families at all, let alone they were suppressed by the late emperor and the prince for nearly 50 years.

In the next few days, large households were robbed continuously, and the scene almost got out of control. Except for not holding up the flag of rebellion, these victims were no different from rebels.

When the imperial court heard the news, they started arguing about whether it is better to provide disaster relief or to suppress it. Some people even suggested that the fourth prince should be punished. You must know that the fourth prince was going to rescue the disaster, but the disaster victims robbed those big families.

Before everyone could find out why, a secret letter from the fourth prince was delivered to the emperor's desk.

The fourth prince suspects that the Shi family Teng raises private soldiers, and those bandits who are not clean no matter how they suppress the capital are raised by the Shi family.

The fourth prince listed a series of evidence, and attached his own guesses by the way, even the recent robbery was guessed by him.

The victims had been starved for three months, and they only dared to rob some landlords and rich peasants. Why did they rob the big households like crazy recently, and the Shi family was the first one?
Because the Shi family wants to transfer their supplies, and they are in urgent need of supplies, there is no better way than robbery.

This set of nonsense was dictated by Dou Rong and written by the fourth prince.But it is such a wild imagination, the emperor, believe it!
