please make me king

Chapter 452 Distress
The person who came was the long-lost Zhao Lizi, the grandson of the elder Zhao Yutou.

It turned out that the rebel army was besieged near Huaiqing Mansion and wanted to cross the Yellow River secretly in order to survive.It's just that all the boats on the river were damaged, confiscated, or taken care of by the government, and the rebels were not allowed to cross the river.

That Zhao Lizi took the initiative to invite Ying, crossing the Yellow River at night in the cold winter months to find the "River God" Huang Shoucai, hoping to use this man's prestige and connections to find a group of boats to help the rebels cross the river.

Zhao Lizi worked hard and worked hard day and night before rushing to Yanshi to find Huang Shoucai and a large number of fishing boats.

I never thought that the calculation of people is not as good as the calculation of the sky. That night, the cold wind blew up and the temperature dropped sharply.The Yellow River froze at night, and the rebels took the opportunity to cross the river and invade Mianchi on the south bank of the river.

The rebel army took advantage of this cold wave to survive the Jedi and turn the crisis into safety.And then Zhao Lizi and Huang Shoucai were pissed off by this bird.Their boats were frozen by the freezing of the river and could not move forward, nor could they retreat.

It was about the rebel army's wealth and life, at that time Zhao Lizi didn't know that the rebel army had already found a way to cross the river, so he couldn't help feeling very anxious.

On the contrary, Huang Shoucai was very experienced, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "It's our misfortune, but it's the great fortune of King Shun. In just one night, the river will freeze, and it can pass people and horses, but we don't need to wait for boats."

Although the rebel army was relieved of the danger at this time, the danger for Zhao Lizi and Huang Shoucai came.They knew very well that if they and others were detected by the officers and soldiers, everyone would be punished as criminals.

In desperation, Huang Shoucai had no choice but to say to the boatman who followed: "Everyone should leave. This time, I, the old Huangkeng, have killed everyone. Please forgive me. But now the boats are all left in the Yellow River, and they violated the authority. If we do not abandon the ship, we will all be doomed."

All the boatmen shouted loudly when they heard the words: "What did the 'River God' say? The Yellow River flooded a while ago, and then the imperial court issued a ban to prevent boards from entering the water. We have no food and clothing. If it weren't for the 'River God' to help us, we would have already died. Starved to death on the shore.

"Now let's not follow you to do this forbidden thing. Even if the 'River God' wants to pull the emperor down, we will help you! Not to mention just abandoning a mere boat."

Huang Shoucai was moved when he heard the words, and said guiltily: "Everyone is absurd. The money was originally helped by King Shun. If it weren't for King Shun's benevolence and righteousness, I would be covered in iron all over my body, and how many nails could I drive? If you want to thank everyone, thank you." King Shun, I, Huang Shoucai, can't be like everyone else."

After hearing the words, everyone said with emotion: "This King Shun is a good man, and our 'River God' is also a good man, and we both have the grace to save lives. It's too late for us to be grateful, so why do we have any dissatisfaction?"

"Don't say it's about King Shun's business, it's other people's business, but if the 'River God' speaks, we will go through fire and water."

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Huang Shoucai let everyone go back to Yanshi's home, while he and Zhao Lizi went to look for King Shun.

The two had no horses, let alone a boat, so they had to walk all the way west to Mianchi to look for the rebels.

As a result, the two of them didn't expect that the soldiers were so fast, and by the time they arrived at Mianchi, the rebel army had already dispersed.

The two inquired in many ways, and some said they went to Shanzhou and Lingbao, some said they went to Yiyang and Yongning, and some said they went to Yiyang and Ruzhou.

They had no choice but to search one by one. They all had news of the rebels passing by, but they couldn't be sure which route was King Shun's team.

Fortunately, Zhao Lizi had been Hou Zheng for a long time, and he was quite good at finding traces from clues.He said to Huang Shoucai: "Among the volunteers, only King Shun is the most benevolent, and he will never plunder the people."

"Among these routes of troops, the west route to Shanzhou and Lingbao is the most chaotic, and the south route to Yiyang and Ruzhou has the largest number of soldiers. Only the rebels who went up against the Luo River and headed for Yongning County have the best military discipline. , should be under the command of King Shun."

Huang Shoucai was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said: "King Shun has helped me a lot, but now I can't do anything for King Shun. Please let me visit King Shun with you. Even if I can't repay you, I should say it face to face. Thanks!"

Although Zhao Lizi was young, he was also an old man by Zhang Shun's side. He knew that Zhang Shun had the intention of wooing this person into his gang, why shouldn't he?
So, the two went up the Luoshui River and went straight to Yiyang and Yongning counties.

They went smoothly along the way, but the mountain was getting higher and higher, the water was rushing, and there were wild beasts.The two of them were cautious along the way, for fear of making mistakes.

It's just that they never expected that there would be nothing wrong along the way.Instead, they were stopped by local archers when they passed by the inspection department of Chongyang Town, west of Yongning County.

These people asked them for tolls of two taels of silver.In this era, two taels of silver can almost buy two shi of grain, which is equivalent to a year's ration of an old and weak woman and child.

To Zhao Lizi and Huang Shoucai, these little money were nothing.It's just that in order to cross the river, Zhao Lizi left his money and belongings with the rebel army.

And that Huang Shoucai donates money generously, is willing to do good deeds, and usually doesn't have much money.Not to mention that the two went back and forth to investigate these days, and spent a lot of food and accommodation along the way.

A penny is still difficult for a hero, let alone two taels of silver?
The two of them couldn't come up with any silver taels, so Huang Shoucai had no choice but to say, "I'm Huang Shoucai, the 'God of the River', and I'm quite a famous figure around here in Luoyang. Please help me."

"Keeping money, keeping money, I think you have gained a bad reputation. Since ancient times, it is convenient to have money, but inconvenient to have no money! You are just a miser, you can only get in and out, so go to the prison for me Right." The inspector said with a sneer when he heard the words, "I see that you two are not good people. You may be the remnants of thieves!"

Not to mention that Zhao Lizi was pretty and handsome, Huang Shoucai was even more heroic, so how could there be such a wicked look?
If he had a weapon in his hand, Zhao Lizi was young and energetic, so he would have to assassinate the thief on the spot to relieve his hatred.

It was only because he was worried about Huang Shou that he comforted him, so he could only say in a low voice: "It's just for the convenience of the officer, we are all passers-by, how can we have so much money?"

The inspector saw that he was a child, so would he care about him?He only ordered the archers to tie them up and put them in prison.

Zhao Lizi and Huang Shoucai couldn't resist, so they were arrested.Seeing that there was nothing he could do, Zhao Lizi hurriedly said, "Loosen the ties a little bit, the official, although we are not born in a wealthy family, we still have some savings. If we are tied up together, how can we have money with you? No, you let it go." Letting us alone, let him go back and get the money to redeem, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

The inspector was overjoyed when he heard this, and he smiled and said, "You're a cute baby. If that's the case, you can go home and bring some valuables to replace him. We'll keep your lord."

In this way, the two of them were unlucky and fell into distress.
