I'm dressed as the villain of the novel

Chapter 167 Mr. Zhao Knows Well?

The old pawn smiled wryly when he heard the words, "Your lady really thinks highly of me for asking this question. Although I know what it is, how can I know why?"

"but……"

The old pawn hesitated for a moment, and then said: "But the old man heard this from a gentleman. According to him, what King Qi did was the native camp under his command."

"Native camp?"

Hearing this, Nan Luoying and Zhao Xin frowned.

The former couldn't help asking: "There is still an army composed of natives under King Qi's command?"

"Have."

The old pawn nodded and said: "Not only are there, as far as the old man knows, there are probably quite a few of them, and the natives are brave in fighting. Even if they don't have any weapons, they dare to charge forward with a white pole. strong army."

Nan Luo couldn't help frowning slightly upon hearing this.

And Xin Zhao let out a gloomy snort, subconsciously slapped the stone table in front of him, and cursed, "Bastard!"

Everyone couldn't help being startled, and looked at him in surprise, they didn't expect him to be so angry.

Seeing everyone's eyes, Xin Zhao knew they were puzzled, so he couldn't help but shook his head and sneered, "I'm not angry that the natives are serving under King Qi's command, but that King Qi actually did such a far-reaching thing for his own selfishness!"

Everyone was startled when they heard the words, they were puzzled, but Li Cunxiao quickly realized it.

He frowned and asked, "My lord, you are worried that the natives have learned the art of forming an army formation in the King Qi's camp?"

When he said this, everyone couldn't help being stunned.

Not to mention Nan Luoying and the Kong brothers and sisters, even the old pawn's expression changed.

Before, he just hated King Qi and Dahuang County Sheriff for being broken, and the strategy of the old Sheriff and Old King Qi.

Didn't think of this layer at all.

At this moment, he suddenly understood, but couldn't help turning pale.

He used to be an old soldier under the command of the old county guard, and no one knew the natives better than him.

No one understood better than him how much Xin Zhao's worries had affected the natives.

It's no wonder that in the past few years, the local people's chaos has become more and more serious.

It turns out that there is still this layer.

Think about it carefully, don't you?
Although the original natives were quite numerous, they were not just scattered.More importantly, the natives have no organization and organizational skills. They are fine in the mountains and forests, but they are useless outside the mountains.

But now King Qi actually formed the natives into a disciplined and organized army, so that only some of these people will return to the natives.

For the natives, it was an earth-shaking change.

Once the people in the mountains suddenly turned into an organized and disciplined army, thinking about the barbarism and fearlessness of those natives, the old soldier couldn't help but shiver.

But Xin Zhao sneered and said: "If that's the case...

What the king of Qi gave to the natives is probably confidence and ambition, which not only harms the Qin people, but also is not a good thing for the natives..."

When everyone heard the words, they realized instantly.

Indeed, although today's natives have troubles every year, they basically don't leave the mountains, but if they have seen the colorful world outside, some of them may become ambitious!

While Daqin could tolerate the natives in the Great Barren Mountains, he might not be able to tolerate an ambitious alien race in the Great Barren Mountains.

"only……"

Kong Xuan slightly frowned slightly puzzled and asked: "The king of Qi wants to form a native camp, why does he have to change the power structure of the natives? No longer divide and rule, but make several or even one family dominate?"

"Because the natives are too scattered, and the Great Barren Mountain is too big."

This time, the one who answered her was indeed Kong Xiao who was only listening but didn't speak.

Xin Zhao and the others nodded slightly, looking at him in surprise.

I didn't expect that this tall and simple man would have such insight.

And concise.

Kong Xuan came to his senses as soon as he heard it.

He couldn't help but smile, feeling that he had indeed asked a silly question.

In fact, she still has a question in her mind.

She originally thought that Xin Zhao invited this old soldier over tonight to ask about Emperor Yu's treasure, why did Xin Zhao keep asking about the natives from the beginning to the end.

Until sending the old pawn away, Xin Zhao didn't ask about Emperor Yu's treasure, but when the old pawn was about to leave.

He seemed to ask casually, "Old man, who is the native who lives in this posthouse today?"

The old pawn was about to leave, but he stopped again when he heard the words, turned around and replied: "The natives living in the posthouse today are from the Hangjiabao among the three parties.

Now the old man Hang Tianqi of Hangjiabao, his son Hang Shanlie, and Hang Shanlie's daughter Hang Ximei live in the post house. "

"I see."

Xin Zhao nodded slightly, and then asked again: "I wonder if there are other leaders in the city recently?"

The old pawn shook his head slightly when he heard the words, "I, the old man, can't know about it, but if you want to know, it's not difficult.

Although the old man didn't know if there were other natives in the city, he did know that there were several merchants in the city who were quite connected with those natives. "

As he spoke, he told Xin Zhao the names and properties of those merchants.

Xin Zhao smiled slightly when he heard the words, and then thanked him with his hand.

Immediately ordered Cao Xiong to personally send the old man back to rest.

Turning around and going back to the courtyard, seeing Kong Xuan and the others seemed suspicious, he couldn't help smiling, and asked: "Brother Xian, it's strange that I didn't inquire about the treasure of Emperor Yu from the beginning to the end?"

"This……"

Kong Xuan was startled for a moment, then nodded and smiled and said, "Young master laughed, Kong Xuan is indeed somewhat puzzled."

Xin Zhao chuckled when he heard the words, and then said deliberately, "Because you don't need to ask, I already know it well."

"Do you have a count?"

Kong Xuan was taken aback again when he heard the words, "Could it be that the young master thinks that the treasure of Emperor Yu is in the hands of those natives?"

Kong Xuan subconsciously lowered his voice, and glanced at the natives under the eaves outside the courtyard.

Xin Zhao just smiled again, but didn't reply.

He got up and brushed off the wrinkles on his clothes, then said with a smile, "It's getting late tonight, and everyone has worked hard all day, so let's go to bed early.

I'm afraid there are still many things to be busy tomorrow! "

Everyone nodded when they heard the words.

And Xin Zhao gave Li Cunxiao a glance, the latter understood, walked out of the courtyard as if nothing had happened, found Cao Xiong and whispered a few words.

Nan Ying also came out immediately, and ordered all the guards of the Nan family to guard in shifts and be careful.

Raising his eyes to see Cao Xiong leaving in a hurry, he couldn't help being surprised.

"It's so late, what else is Cao Xiong going to do?"

Li Cunxiao smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, I just went to see if Dongchang and Jinyiwei still have any available people in Dahuang City."

Then he said: "Your lady, go and rest by yourself, I, Lao Li and the brothers are enough for the guarding."

Nan Luo didn't say much when she heard the words, she nodded, then turned and went back to the courtyard, said a few words to Xin Zhao, and then went back to the post houses without mentioning it.

At the same time, the Kong brothers and sisters also returned to the post house belonging to Kong Xuan, but they did not rest immediately.

Kong Xuanxiu frowned slightly, as if he still couldn't confirm what Xin Zhao had confirmed, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, do you think Mr. Zhao really knows the whereabouts of Emperor Yu's treasure?"

Kong Xiao was still as taciturn as before. He just shook his head slightly and said a few words, "No need to ask."

Then two words popped up: "Rest."

Then he turned and went back to his post house.

Kong Xuan seemed to be used to this attitude towards his brother, he just shook his head and closed the door casually, muttering with a smile, "Young Master Zhao is really mysterious."

After a while, there was a rustling sound in the room, and then another pop, the lights went out, and there was silence everywhere...

This silence lasted for a long time, and suddenly there was a slight rustling sound and a chuckle from the people in the room, "I thought someone would be watching... Ah, I'm so tired!"

It seemed that he relaxed his body, turned over, and soon there was a sound of even breathing, and this time he really fell asleep...
