Chapter 1325: Want to steal my skills? (Part 1325) [Seeking monthly votes]

"This is a matter of great importance, and the Lord must be informed of this matter as well."

The strength of Qu State is more powerful and difficult to deal with than expected.

If the two families could be eternal allies, whether the Qu Kingdom was strong or weak would not affect the outcome. However, the two families were destined to fall out, and the Qu Kingdom was a potential enemy. If they did not find out the details of the Qu Kingdom, they would probably fall. To find out the details of the Qu Kingdom was also the purpose of Lin Feng's trip.

Why did Zhai Le’s strength improve so rapidly?
Who are the twenty-rank marquises who are guarding him?

"When the Qu Kingdom went to war, there had never been such a Che Hou." Lin Feng was not just on his way, he also sent people to collect the public's evaluation of the Qu Kingdom's court. From the current news, the public opinion was quite supportive of Zhai Le, the king, who knew how to win people's hearts. "There was no rumor among the people, and the royal court had no information about this person."

This little bit of information can reveal a lot of interesting details.

For example, the relationship between this Che Hou and Zhai Le.

The probability is that it is not loyalty but a transaction.

For example, this Che Hou was either a hermit like Gongyang Yongye, or he came from another country. Was he related to the Gods? What role did Yu Guilong, the branch leader, play here? Was he a middleman? Were there more cards hidden in the territory of Qu? Countless speculations came to mind.

She circulated her spiritual energy to speed up the decomposition of the alcohol and stay calm.

"The country of Qu is home to many hidden talents. We may not be able to come and go freely."

"What are you afraid of? Killing someone is not easy, how hard can it be to escape?" Gong Xichou was calm and not worried about the fierce battle that might happen later. His tone was still the familiar arrogance and confidence, "He's only a 20th-rank Chehou. If he doesn't have eyes, he'll be killed!"

Lin Feng jokingly said: "General, what you said makes sense."

Gong Xichou: "...Don't laugh."

Lin Feng touched the corner of his mouth: "I'm not smiling."

Gong Xichou added: "It's not okay to laugh in your heart."

It’s a little depressing to say the least.

Except for the few years when his clan was exterminated and he had to swallow his anger under the enemy's command, Gong Xichou was very arrogant most of the time. He could not meet anyone stronger than him, and could kill anyone weaker than him at will. He was always successful in wars and fights. It seemed that God could not bear to see him being so complacent. The longer he was arrogant in the beginning, the more he had to pay back in the end.

The opponents I encounter are more difficult than the last.

If his mind was as fragile as Gongyang Yongye's, how could he still have the ambition to reach the top after suffering several blows?

Since Zhai Le dared to give the private seal of the Imperial Guard to Lin Feng, Lin Feng naturally dared to use it openly. Whoever can't afford it will get angry.

The ministers of Qu State broke through the defense first.

While Lin Feng was selecting free laborers, the Qu State meeting had already become a mess. The core theme was that Zhai Le was reckless. How could he give such an important item to an unknown outsider? In addition, the Kang State envoy's statement that he wanted to plant food now was absurd!

Not to mention two harvests a year, even three harvests a year is useless.

The ministers who originally opposed the alliance between Qu State and Kang State took the opportunity to speak out generously, hoping that Zhai Le could stop fighting, focus on recuperation, and then negotiate with the central countries, letting them negotiate with Shen Tang, and they would reap the benefits.

These ministers' suggestions were also for the good of the Kingdom of Qu. Zhai Le did not rebuke them, but let them argue until they were all dry-mouthed. He then slowly spoke, "First, I have the final say on whether this private seal can be used to mobilize the imperial guards. Second, Kangguo does have its own unique features in farming. If we can learn the essence, it will be a blessing for all the people. You don't need to mention it anymore."

The person who can truly mobilize the imperial guards is Zhai Le.

The so-called private seal?

He says whichever one is useful is useful.

As long as he opened his mouth, even if he pointed at a stone on the roadside, he could give it the added value of mobilizing the imperial guards. Giving Lin Feng a private seal was more important than anything else. Unfortunately, Lin Feng was not very fond of this and did not show any interest in Zhai Le's show of goodwill.

The minister also wanted to make a suggestion: "If the Lord wants to learn the farming skills of Kangguo, why not send someone to bribe him and promise him a high position and generous salary? This will definitely be effective. Crops take several months from sowing to maturity. Perhaps this is Kangguo's evil plan, just to delay time."

Kangguo first dominated the northwest, and now it has taken over the southwest. It is too big! Instead of helping Kangguo deal with the central countries, it is better to suppress Kangguo together with the central countries - Kangguo clearly wants to follow the example of Wuguo and unify the continent, and Quguo is also within the scope of unification. They think Kangguo is more threatening than the central countries!
Zhai Le said: "It won't take several months."

The minister was stunned: "How long will it take?"

"Just half a month will do."

Lin Feng sent someone to pass him a message in the morning, which could be regarded as a military order: [As soon as the people and land are in place, I will deliver the first batch of grain in just half a month. Lord Zhai can just wait for the inspection. ]

Zhai Le and Yu Hai were both terrified after hearing this.

Half a month?
The first batch of food?
Lin Feng meant that it would take only half a month from sowing to maturity for the first batch? Every word was teasing his greed.

If what Lin Feng said is true, her value is so great!
It was so big that Zhai Le wanted to consider whether to tear his face with Shen Tang in advance! As soon as this greed emerged, Zhai Le used reason to suppress it. Reason told him that now was not the opportunity.

With the instructions of Zhai Le and Yu Hai, Lin Feng selected the coolies on the first day, received more than a dozen kinds of southeastern unique crops on the second day, and had 30 hectares of fertile land ready on the third day. These fields were under the name of the royal family of Qu State, and the original crops had been cleared.

"Time is tight, and this is all we can mobilize for now."

The royal land properties of Qu State are scattered, and these are the only ones available locally.

Lin Feng frowned in embarrassment: "This is far from enough. It takes time for the fertility of the fields to recover. It cannot be cultivated continuously. If the fertility cannot keep up, no matter how good the grain is, it will not produce high yields."

Zhai Le naturally knew this truth.

He has already ordered people to discuss borrowing land with officials from major aristocratic families.

There is no need for any formalities to transfer the royal land, just Zhai Le's nod. It is different for other fields, which require time to arrange. By the way, he can also take this opportunity to feel out the background of everyone. When the Qu Kingdom was established, Zhai Huan used an iron fist to carry out three rounds of land redistribution, and also took the opportunity to eliminate several major troubles, but he died young.

Zhai Le naturally wanted to implement his brother's policies, but the situation in the court became more complicated with the death of Zhai Huan, and the resistance he encountered was also incomparable. More problems made him overwhelmed.

How much of the land that was distributed back then is still retained?

Zhai Le wasn't quite sure either.

It just so happens that this time I can use Lin Feng as an excuse to investigate.

Zhai Le had been the ruler of a country for many years and was well aware of the principle that "secrecy leads to success, while disclosure leads to failure". Therefore, he did not show any sign of wanting to borrow the land in advance, but announced the heavy news out of the blue, leaving no one a chance to make up for the mistake.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Some people are calm and composed, while others look pale.

The words that wanted to be rejected were swallowed back into their stomachs after seeing Zhai Le's meaningful eyes - what excuse could they find to refuse? The royal family directly cleared out 30 hectares of fertile land, and took out all the sown land to fully support the half-month agreement of the Kangguo envoys. As subjects, what excuse could they have to refuse?

Do you really not want to lend, or are you too guilty to lend?
Faced with the sympathetic looks of his colleagues, the victim gritted his teeth and agreed.

When Zhai Le saw this, he was so angry that he laughed instead.

I was angry that the achievements left by my cousin were destroyed in such a way.

"You are all my backbone. I will definitely remember your sacrifice this time and will not let you suffer any loss at all."

Pray that he doesn't find out anything that crosses my line.

After all, it is not a decent thing for the three tribes to go to jail. When Lin Feng heard about the disturbance in the court of the King of Qu State in the past few days, it was already three days later. She and the others were in seclusion selecting and breeding seeds, and had no energy to pay attention to other things. At the end, she sighed: "Lord Zhai is using us as knives. He took advantage of the situation to eradicate the malignant tumor and made it easy for us to make many enemies for no reason."

The job of a ruler is really a training job.

How straightforward was Zhai Xiaofang in the past?
Now I can kill someone by borrowing a knife with my eyes closed.

Lin Feng and the others had been in seclusion for a few days, and Luo Sha had been guarding outside the door for a few days, fearing that Qu Guo would make some small moves. Seeing her come out, his tense nerves finally relaxed: "The man surnamed Zhai is not a good person. There are a few sneaky guys wandering around these days."

"killed?"

"We didn't alert the enemy. We sent our own people to keep an eye on them."

Lin Feng specifically reminded me of this before he went into seclusion.

After all, we are on someone else's territory, and as long as we are not forced to the point of no return, we can turn a blind eye to some conflicts.

Lin Feng nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, General."

Luo Sha's temperament is indeed much gentler than Gong Xichou's.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Unexpectedly, there was no trace of Gong Xichou for half a day.

"He said he didn't want to be bothered by birds and went to do other things."

Knowing that someone is jumping around right under your nose but not being able to slap him to death, what is the difference between this and allowing lice to crawl all over your body? Luo Sha can ignore it, but Gong Xichou can't. He used the excuse of going out to investigate and said that he would be back to report in two days at the earliest...

As soon as Lin Feng heard it, he knew what Gong Xichou wanted to investigate.

"Is that Che Hou nearby?" She asked with her fingers writing on Luo Sha's palm. After receiving a negative answer, she dared to speak frankly, "Did the letter we sent out get out of the country safely?"

Luo Sha also helped supervise this matter.

The people of Luosha are well versed in water, and among them there are people with extremely special Wudan totems who can complete the smuggling without being noticed.

Gong Xichou and his men are too big a target and can easily be discovered by the Qu State.

Luo Sha nodded: "It's safe for now."

Similar to the life lanterns of the Gongxi clan, Luo Sha and his clan members also have special sensing methods. This method was originally used by the clan members to facilitate positioning and searching during hunting and sailing activities at sea. Once on shore, this sensing method can also come in handy. Calculating the distance, the messenger has left the border of Qu State and is heading for the destination.

As long as the person is not dead, the letter is safe.

Lin Feng thought about it again and again, and felt relieved only after he was sure that nothing was missing.

She focuses all her energy on meeting deadlines.

However, this is Qu State, not Kang State, and the people under his command are not his own people, and within half a day, there were twists and turns again.

Lin Feng rushed over after hearing the news: "What's going on this time?"

In order to facilitate field work, she had long ago changed out of her usual attire and replaced it with a thorny cloth skirt. She wore no makeup, but her beauty was still hard to conceal. When the troublemakers of the imperial guards saw her, they were stunned for a moment.

When he reacted, he showed a look of contempt and disdain.

"The messenger has come at the right time. I would like to ask the messenger what he means by this and why he wants us to do such menial tasks?" Those who can join the Imperial Guards are all from good families. Lin Feng is also selecting the best of the best this time. He only selects brave warriors, and it is easy to pick people with good family backgrounds. The Wuzu who led the riot is one of them.

He was angry enough to be sent to do farm work by an outsider woman, and was laughed at by his colleagues for being unlucky. When he turned around and heard that his family had suffered a disaster because of Lin Feng, he was even more furious. He completely exploded just now and joined other people with grievances to make trouble.

"You are following the king's orders! Not to mention that farm work is not menial, even if you are really ordered to do menial work, are you following the king's orders?" Lin Feng put his hand on the hilt of the sword and spoke harshly. People who knew her knew that she was really angry.

Unfortunately, I don’t understand what is in front of me.

Not only did he not understand, he also laughed at Lin Feng for taking chicken feathers as a token of authority.

"Of course we have to obey the king's orders, but who do you think you are? How dare you use the king's orders to argue?" He knew that Lin Feng had signed a military order to deliver the first batch of grain in the next half month. While questioning her ability, he also wanted to make things worse and vent his anger for the unexpected disaster suffered by his family!

He was resentful towards Lin Feng and also took his anger out on Zhai Le.

The old and young in the family have devoted their lives to serving the country, but in return they are met with such suspicion.

I thought this was a good and lucrative job, and I even fought openly and secretly with my colleagues for it, but in the end I was sent to be a mud leg!
Lin Feng sneered.

"Not all of Lord Zhai's words work."

If the leader of the riot was an ordinary soldier, that would be normal. In the words of the Lord, people's cognition is different. Ordinary soldiers come from all kinds of backgrounds. They can only see what is in front of them and make judgments based on their own cognition. It is not shameful to make a wrong judgment. But the man in front of him is different. His cognition does not live up to his background.

Too many people who are mentally ill but can take care of themselves are treated as normal people until they cause a huge disaster and their true colors are revealed.

Lin Feng took two steps forward and smelled a hint of alcohol.

She sneered again: "Wine makes cowards brave."

"Who are you calling a coward?"

Lin Feng raised his eyes slightly, glanced at the other troublemakers, and said with a smile: "I don't like to force people. If you don't want to work, there are many people who are willing to do it. I just don't know your names?"

Are you preparing to file a complaint?

The crowd was not panicked, as the law did not hold everyone responsible; at most they were reprimanded.

Those who are confident can report directly to their families.

Lin Feng pondered the memory carefully and said something very irritating: "Ah, why are they all small families?"

Anyway, Zhai Le used himself as a knife.

Why can’t Lin Feng kill someone and let Zhai Le take the blame?
He waved his hand casually: "If you disobey the king's order, you will be killed."

Killed, but not completely.

As soon as a few people fell down, someone spoke up to stop them.

Lin Feng looked at Yu Hai who came after hearing the news, raised his hand and gently nodded, signaling his men holding knives to stop: "Prime Minister Yu, you came at the right time. You will be responsible for handling those who disobeyed the king's orders. There are some things that I, an outsider, should not say, but... the imperial guards are related to the safety of the king and are the barrier of a country... I am afraid that these disobedient and disloyal people will be the black sheep of the group and cause endless harm."

She put the irony right out there.

Yu Hai secretly thought that she was very courageous, but he also knew that he had embarrassed himself by taking away several corpses and the trembling unfortunate people left. Zhai Le didn't care about the death of these people, especially when he saw the small bag of grain seeds brought back by Yu Hai, he was not angry but happy.

"The letter was intercepted?"

I bleached my hair pink before, but the color didn't look good so I dyed it back, but the hair was severely damaged and I had to grow it again. I went to the hair salon today and got another short haircut. I feel like I'll have replaced all the bleached hair by this time next year.
