Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 530 The hero Liu Laoqi
The sky in Chang'an is so blue.

Cheng Bushi slowly opened his eyes, his whole body was still a little dizzy, looking at the endless blue sky, his face was full of confusion.

Why am I here, what just happened?
Someone is bullying the old and the weak!

Cheng Buzhi suddenly remembered, and immediately struggled to get up, and was about to question, Liu An hurriedly pulled him back, saw His Highness the Crown Prince, Cheng Buzhi heaved a sigh of relief, with the Crown Prince here, the old man should be fine Well, he looked again, and saw that the old man was kowtowing and pleading guilty, but the villain ignored him completely, and even kicked the old man with his feet from time to time. With his physique, the old man was kicked over by him at will, and his whole body muddy.

And there were many people gathered around them. To Cheng Bushi's heartbreak, none of these people came forward to help. Instead, they had smiles all over their faces, and some of them were still applauding.

Cheng Bushi just felt that the world was turned upside down, where did the tradition of respecting the elders go?People are not old! !
The people gathered around, and someone asked suspiciously, "Isn't that the third gnat? What's going on?"

This old man is still very famous in this street. He was born in a rich family, originally a royal family of Qi, but he started to prodigal, gamble, commit adultery, and make trouble after drinking. It is said that he has wives in at least four places, but He didn't take care of his son for a day, and there were rumors that he beat his mother, but his mother loved him and didn't sue him for disobedience. He just did evil all his life, was imprisoned a lot, and later broke up his family and became a homeless person.

None of his children were willing to take care of him. He wrote to his children several times, but failed in the end. After that, he began to rely on the old to sell the old in this area, relying on various crooked ways to make a living.

No one remembers his original name, but because his surname is the third, the people here call him the third gnat.

Although he is getting old, he is still restless. He used to take advantage of his absence and tried to plot against the woman at home. However, he is no longer the villain he was before. He was beaten out by the mistress. , disgusting, even if you give him alms, he will steal your things, everyone is extremely angry, but because of his age, under the tradition of respecting the elderly, no one can stop even this big villain.

Seeing him being kicked around like a dog today, these people couldn't tell how happy they were.

"Hahaha, this guy has no eyes. Recently, the government has been arresting people everywhere. I thought this guy would be able to settle down. Unexpectedly, he lost his job of stealing, so he started to blackmail people here. He blackmailed six people in a row. Seven people?"

"That's right, the fifth comb seller on Chengxi Street was blackmailed by him because he kindly helped him, and he didn't even have any business?"

"Yeah, those nobles, he didn't let them go. The government is tight, and the nobles are also afraid of getting into trouble. Usually, he will give the money if he asks for it, and tell him to go away."

"This time, he just blackmailed the wrong person. Just now, the carriage stopped by the side of the road, and the people above went to buy wine, and then he lay on the carriage, saying that they had injured himself, and asked them to compensate him Ten thousand dollars, otherwise I will sue Tingwei."

"and then?"

"Then the strong man said he was going to hit him to death, and ordered his retainers to drive to hit him. The third gnat, who didn't expect to be able to run like this, chased here from the street. If it wasn't for that fool who jumped out, he would have been killed Killed!"

"What a strong man! Eliminate harm for the people!"

"The government will come later, we don't run away, we have to testify for this strong man!"

The common people chatted, all pointing at the old man, and their words were full of contempt.

The fifth comb seller on Chengxi Street is a very honest and responsible person. He rescued him on the road because of his kindness, but he was sued, and his family was almost ruined. Finally, his family moved out. I don't know where to go, the people here hate this old man very much.

Cheng Bushi was about to get up, but Liu An pressed him and said in a low voice, "This is a sinner who blackmailed people, and the one who beat him is my father."

Cheng Bushi was shocked, and then he realized that he got up hastily.

But at this moment, the third gnat was crying so weakly that he couldn't get up anymore. Liu Chang grabbed his hair, dragged him out for a long time, threw him on the ground, and got on the car again, "Lu!! Kill him!!"

The third gnat, who was unable to get up just now, suddenly jumped up with the strength he didn't know where it came from. The crying father and mother started to run, and the carriage started to chase again. Cheng Bushi looked at this scene dumbfounded, a little bit unbearable He said: "Your Highness, although there is a fault, is this too cruel? As the emperor, it is inappropriate for His Majesty to treat an old man like this after all."

Liu An shook his head, "If it was pure blackmail, father wouldn't be so angry. There must be something we don't know. Are you okay? I was terrified just now. I thought you were thrown to death?"

Only then did Cheng Bushi suddenly feel the sharp pain coming from his whole body, and he bent down in some pain.

"Chen Wuhai is just, Your Majesty's supernatural power. I thought I was successful in martial arts. Looking at Chang'an, I can be regarded as good. I didn't expect that I didn't have the ability to resist the huge force just now. I really almost fell to my death. gone."

"Your martial arts are really good, but my father is a man. You can't look at him with the standards of ordinary people. I have a very brave brother, called 卬, who is also a famous strongman. He can lift me and Qi together. Get up, but Father, what about him? I don’t know what he can’t lift, he can even lift the Tianzi Ding, he can walk, maybe he can jump, you are just unlucky, Father is very angry When you are still alive, if you can really fall to death and survive, it means that your strength is really good."

The soldiers came quickly, and there were a lot of soldiers, but the people didn't leave, they were still yelling.

When the old man saw the soldier coming, his expression changed immediately.

Two armored soldiers helped him up, the old man cried aggrievedly, pointed at Liu Chang, and shouted: "At the foot of the emperor, can you be unscrupulous and fierce? He hurt me and wanted to kill me because he was afraid of losing money. I beat him in various ways, I am over half a hundred years old, with his body, he really wants to kill me!"

"I heard that Zhang Tingwei enforces the law impartially, and he wants to make decisions for me!!"

The soldier had a stern face, and some soldiers came to Liu Chang to inquire about the situation. They just heard that there was trouble here, and Liu Chang didn't say a word. He yelled: "You villain! Just wait! Zhang Gong will not let you go!"

"He will definitely decide for the people!!"

"You actually beat the old man, are you still human? You bastard!"

Liu An secretly thought it was bad, sure enough, when he cursed like this, Liu Chang was furious immediately, he took a sudden step forward, and kicked the old man in the heart again, this kick almost used all his strength, the old man flew like a sack It was not only the old man who flew out, but the two soldiers who were holding the old man also fell to the ground due to the huge force. The old man flew out for a long time, and when he landed, his mouth and nose began to bleed , eyes wide open, glaring at the sky, motionless.

Only then did the people feel scared, and some people started running away.

The soldiers were even more frightened, they stepped forward one after another, drew their swords, and surrounded Liu Chang.

"Go, go to Tingwei!"

Liu Chang stood among the soldiers and was about to go to Tingwei with them. It was the first time for the soldiers to see this. Why did it feel like he wanted to lead us to Tingwei?However, looking at his specifications, these soldiers didn't dare to make too much trouble, especially their captain had actually discovered some clues. With such a height and such an arrogant style, the driver was still a white-faced and beardless eunuch. This is the emperor? ? ?
But the common people obviously didn't think so, and someone stood in front of the soldiers right away.

"This strong man wiped out harm for the people!! Why did he catch him?!"

The soldiers also had headaches. Their immediate superiors were partial to the common people, and they did not dare to drive them away violently like before. As for Liu Chang, seeing these boiling common people, he could not help but smile on his face. He was serious Said: "Everyone!! Please listen to me!!"

"Nowadays, when I eliminate harm for the people, I am not afraid of life and death. What can I do to these people who don't eat grains?! I fight those who harm the people!! You don't need to stop, that Tingwei is a reasonable place, I It's a righteous act, so I won't be afraid of his guilt!!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately clapped their hands and applauded.

Some people asked: "Strong man!! Can you leave your name?!"

"It's easy to say, I'm Liu Laoqi of Beiyuan Street!! If there are any villains who endanger the Quartet, you all go there and tell the names of the villains, and I will kill him myself!!"

"it is good!!"

"What a strong man!!"

Liu Chang cupped his hands, and followed the soldiers to leave here amidst the cheers of the crowd.

Cheng Bushi was still a little confused, he looked at the prince beside him, "Is your Majesty always like this?"

Facing the world-skeptical eyes of his own family, Liu An also felt a little embarrassed. He really wanted to say that he didn't know this person, so he pursed his lips, "Father thought it over carefully, this is to help Wei Ting rectify Chang'an There are some things that the common people can see clearly. If you look at them, it means that someone is bullying the old man. Only the common people know the real situation. He must have his own ideas."

"I see."

Cheng Bushi accepted his reason.

"Forgive me for not being able to follow His Highness to the Prince's Mansion."

"Ah? This is all a misunderstanding. Father didn't mean to hurt you. How could you?"

"No, Your Highness, I really can't go there, I have to go to the clinic now"

"You said it earlier, I'll take you right away!!"

"Oh, dog officer! If there is any torture, you can go to it! I, Liu Laoqi, decide for the people and eliminate harm for the people. I am not afraid of your torture. If Nai Gong yells, I am not a real man!!!"

Liu Laoqi roared angrily. The guards around him were full of admiration. Although this guy was tyrannical, he was really a strong man. He was so tough. It would be great if he could become a colleague.

Opposite Liu Laoqi, Zhang Shizhi was looking at him quietly, his lips were trembling.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then looked at the few people around him, "You all go out."

Seeing the soldiers go out, Liu Laoqi snorted coldly, "Officer dog, do whatever you can, don't put on a show!"

"Your Majesty"

"Did you put in so much effort to disguise yourself just to scold your ministers?"

Liu Chang was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head, "Hahaha, isn't it afraid that those armored soldiers will have a bad influence after seeing it?"

"The influence is not good? Kill people in the street"

Zhang Shizhi let out a long sigh, and suddenly asked, "You were the one who fed people the sand at the south gate the day before yesterday, right?"

Liu Chang hastily defended, "That guy is just pretending to be good."

"It really is you."

Zhang Shizhi was silent for a long time, "Your Majesty, I have laws, and everything must be carried out according to the laws. It is wrong for you to enforce the law indiscriminately. Even the old man today is not guilty of death." what"

"Is insulting the emperor a capital offense?"

"But he doesn't know that you are the emperor."

"Come on, Tai Yi is not willing to accept a person like him. If I didn't give him a ride, I don't know how many people will be harmed."

Liu Chang stood up with a displeased face, "Zhang Shizhi, you are right to rectify law and order in these days, but don't always stare at those who can make you famous. There are still many people at the bottom. You also need to pay attention to the matter!! Why don't you catch that man who is harming people everywhere in the West City?!"

"The matters at the bottom are the responsibility of the county government, not the post of a court lieutenant."

"Anyway, the county government and you all disappointed me very much!"

"You have to find a way to solve it!"

"only."

Liu Changtoe left here arrogantly. No matter how tough the minister is, he can't punish the emperor. Zhang Shizhi frowned. The security of the place seems a bit chaotic now. No one can stop Shihuo Mansion from doing this, but there is still a problem, which is the chaos of the security system.

Ting Wei Mansion is the highest judicial institution in the country, but Ting Wei cannot be said to be responsible for local security issues. It is not a trivial matter for Ting Wei to dispatch. Generally speaking, county and county captains are responsible for local security. Going down is the tour gate of the township and the pavilion at the grassroots level.However, these departments do not have a complete upper chain with each other, and there are many departments with law enforcement powers.

Perhaps an adjustment can be made to the security system at all levels to make it a whole, from Ting Wei to local county captain, county captain directly to county captain, then to Youke, and then to pavilion chief?

Zhang Shizhi pondered.

"Mr. Zhang!! That Mr. Zhang is making trouble again!"

"Hmph, making trouble, right? I'll go there myself."

In Zhao Guo, Liu Ruyi looked at Yuan An standing in front of him with despair all over his face, and said that he had been fooled.

Liu Chang deceived Jia Yi away with the reason that he wanted to meet with the Prime Minister to discuss mining. Liu Ruyi believed it was true, but he did not expect that Jia Yi would be left in Chang'an after leaving like this, and it would be impossible for him to come back. In exchange, the one who came back was This one is called Yuan Ang.

Liu Ruyi had never heard of such a person at all. Judging from his appearance, he was extremely young, and judging from his experience, he was even more ordinary.

Are you going to trade this guy for my Jiaxiang? ? ?

If it weren't for the spies sent by the emperor by his side, Liu Ruyi would have yelled at her a long time ago.

He looked at the young man in front of him, and in the end he could only sigh, "Yuan Sheng, you have been here for a while, can you handle the mining business? Is it possible that I need someone to dig it in person?" No?"

Yuan Ang said calmly: "My lord, I have already contacted the merchants in the country, and in three days, all the construction will start."

"Merchants?? Why are you looking for merchants?! Why don't you tell me?!"

"It's like this, Your Majesty, Zhao Guo has no people and no materials. It is unrealistic to want to mine in large quantities. Therefore, during this period of time, I met many big merchants and sent people to Tang, Yan , Dai, Qi, I mainly think that since Zhao Guo does not have this ability, let them dig for us, we let him dig, but the merchants have to turn over [-]% of the minerals excavated to us, and as for the princes, [-]% is turned over to us. become."

"Only [-]%?!"

Liu Ruyi's heart ached suddenly.

Yuan Ang continued: "My lord, I have calculated that if we dig by ourselves, we will spend more than [-]% of the cost just to prepare manpower. We don't have to do anything, and we can enjoy the benefits. When excavating, we can still find time to do other things, such as roads, and now Tang is no longer the center of commercial exchanges, Zhao has a favorable location, which can be used to great effect."

"Besides, if those merchants in the country dig it out, we still have taxes to collect and the roads to be repaired. From now on, Zhao will be the core of the north. We don't need to do anything, and the wealth will flow in."

Yuan An slowly talked about his thoughts, but it only took half an hour for Liu Ruyi's eyes to go from frowning at the beginning, to suddenly realizing, and then to smiling.

"Hahaha, Mr. Yuan, come and sit next to me! You just said, contract, right? This method is really good!"

"As expected of the elder brother's side, young and promising! Young and promising!"

Liu Ruyi stroked Yuan An's hand very enthusiastically, "What should we do about the specific matter?"

"We have to wait a while. After Zhang Xiang sent his stepson Meng earlier, I informed him of my current plan. Soon, Zhang Xiang will send someone to come again."

Liu Ruyi was very excited, Zhao Guo revitalization, just around the corner.

Seeing Zhao Wang's remonstrance and trust in him, Yuan Ang was relieved. Before he came to Zhao, he had visited Jia Yi, and Jia Yi told him that Zhao Wang was very difficult to assist. Yes, it's easy to lose his head and make him be careful. That's why he didn't dare to tell the king about the matter in advance, for fear that he would mess up. But now it seems that this king is easy to talk, not as cruel as Jia Yi described?

Did Jia Yi have any conflicts with him before?

At this moment, Liu Ruyi rubbed her hands and said excitedly: "When we have a lot of copper, we can secretly mint coins, make as much money as we need, and buy whatever we want. With iron, we can Can be smelted."

At that moment, Yuan An's face was as pale as snow.
