Chapter 40

Shijiazhuang is one of the most fertile villages in Shouchang County. It is located by the Ganquan water, and the Tongyuan Canal, which has existed since the Han Dynasty, irrigates this fertile land.

The millet and wheat in the farmland around Zhuangzi have been harvested, and the golden stalks are being piled up beside the field. Countless farmers are sorting and binding them for storage as an important source of food for livestock in winter.

Cao Shishilang Yanming was walking around the house anxiously. The spies reported that hundreds of people had returned to Qi Xiahu's cottage. How come no one has come yet?

The envoy of Shouchang, Luo Xianda, did not come from his side, so is this guy really not afraid?

"Don't be impatient, Mr. Fourteenth, the envoy Luo Yu will come, because he has no choice, unless he would rather be dismissed from office and sent to prison than give up the yellow and white things!"

The person who persuaded Cao Yanming to stay calm was a scribe wearing a blue hipless shirt and a crocodile on his head. He was copying Yan Zhenqing's self-reporting post with a brush. A copy brought by others from the Central Plains.

"Where are the horse thieves? Can they come? Is my third sister really okay?" Cao Yanming was still a little anxious. This time he took the opportunity to invite Ying in front of his grandfather Cao Yijin. Don't mess it up. .

"Let's do this! Let's send another capable person to go there, just to make it clear. These horse thieves cannot be controlled by Mr. Zhang Erlang. They should be betrayed by some Ge Duo's subordinates. As long as he is smart, he will You don't want to offend us."

The scribe finally stopped writing. He looked at his copy with satisfaction, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"In recent years, Luo Xianda has colluded with Ge Duo, and even allowed the Shouchang town army to rob business travelers, and planted tribesmen everywhere, making a lot of money!
The affairs of the world are nothing more than power and wealth, and these two words complement each other. Those with power must control wealth, and those with wealth can exercise power. Such a good way of making money, Luo Xianda should also give way to the virtuous.

Now that King Linggong is not in good health, most of the affairs in the Jiedu Yamen are handled by Da Langjun, but sitting in this position is like being on the top of a mountain, and there is a danger of slipping if you are not careful. The evil seed born with her is not without strength! "

The scribe said, staring at Cao Yanming seriously, "Shisi Lang, think about it, when you went out, it seemed that you were looking for the third lady, but did Mr. Da Lang mention half a word?"

Cao Yanming thought for a while, then shook his head, "Returning to Mr., my father only said to let Fourteen get things done, and didn't mention Third Sister!"

"That's right! The third lady has been captive for ten days. If something happened, it would have happened a long time ago. It's useless for us to worry. On the contrary, it's Luo Xianda who invaded the Zhuangzi, and Ge Duo's family property is more important.

With these yellow and white things, Mr. Dalang will be able to get the support of more people, and he can use Luo Xianda to beat Luo Tongda. What the Yumen army is facing is the natal family of the Yiyu woman.

As long as Luo Tongda stands on our side and seals the Yumen Pass tightly, Ganzhou Yijue will not be able to influence Guasha unless he sends a large army to attack. "

"What you said is very true!" Cao Yanming showed a smile on his face.

"As long as the Yumen Gate is closed, the Yiju women will not be supported. If the Ganzhou Yi still dare to raise soldiers, then they will be finished. Not only will the Guasha clan not dare to support that woman, but they must also fight against us!"

"And if Fourteenth Lang can do this for Mr. Dalang, this Shijiazhuang will soon be yours. With such a rich Zhuangzi, it will be much more convenient for Fourteenth Lang to do anything. You can also get the help of your uncle Luo's family nearby!"

A smile appeared on the scribe's face, and Cao Yanming was also very excited.

"The Fourteenth Prince, Yang Kongmu, Shouchang Luo Ye envoy sent his confidant Ma Yaozi to bring some people over, saying that he wanted to see the Fourteenth Prince."

The soldiers outside the door came in to report, and immediately, Cao Yanming and scribe Yang Kongmu smiled even more happily.

. . . .

Shijiazhuang sounds like a Han manor, but in fact it is a Sogdian manor, and most of the people in the manor are surnamed Shi.

However, they are not the same ancestors, but the former Shi Guo people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu, who collectively settled in Shazhou.

But now, after more than a hundred years of intermarriage with the Han people and Tubo, they are basically no different from the Han people.

Zhang Zhao and Ma Yaozi, led by a guard, soon came to Cao Shishilang's door.

Zhang Zhao's prediction was correct. The Yueqi brought by Cao Shishi seemed to be only Zhang Zhao and Ma Yaozi. Especially Ma Yaozi was a familiar face, so he didn't take precautions against them at all.

Pushing open the door and walking in, Zhang Zhao looked up and saw a man who looked about his age wearing a red brocade gown sitting on the main seat, trying to put on a majestic face.

Beside him, there was a man dressed as a scribe in a hipless shirt, with a Zhuge Wolong-style stinky fart expression.

"Ma Yaozi! What did envoy Luo Ye ask you to do? But you have made a decision?"

Cao Shishi put on a majestic face for a while, maybe he felt that his aura was strong enough, so he opened his mouth and said unhurriedly to Ma Yaozi.

Cold sweat dripped down Ma Yaozi's face one by one. When he thought that he was about to kidnap one of the most beloved grandsons of Tosi King Cao Linggong, and there were three hundred more riders outside, his legs trembled.

He opened his mouth, suddenly his mind went blank, and he forgot what he wanted to say.

To bad things!
Zhang Zhao hurried forward, Cao Shisi was quite far away now, if he shouted, the guards outside would be in armor, and he would have to stop cooking if he rushed in.

"Mr. Fourteenth, those tribesmen have already been divided, and Luo Yeshi couldn't gather them up for a while, so please allow a few more days.

However, in order to show sincerity, envoy Luo Ye entrusted me to bring some items to Lord Fourteen! "

Zhang Zhao took out the mahogany box that he had prepared long ago, wrapped in silk, and walked towards Cao Yanming.

"Hehe! Does my uncle have any other treasures in his collection? Show me some treasures!"

Cao Yanming didn't realize the danger at all, because he never thought that anyone would dare to harm him in Shijiazhuang, under the protection of three hundred Yueqi in front of Jieduya!

"Stop! Who are you?" However, Yang Kongmu, who was beside Cao Yanming, saw that something was wrong, but he didn't think that someone was going to kidnap Cao Yanming, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong!
"Look at this gentleman! This is a congratulatory gift from the envoy Luo Ye!" Zhang Zhao deliberately shouted and lifted the silk cloth from the mahogany box.

This was called to the guards outside the door, and it was also to prevent the scribe from shouting.

Sure enough, Yang Kongmu was influenced by Zhang Zhao's words, and his eyes and attention were all attracted by the mahogany box.

But even though the silk cloth on the mahogany box was lifted, the box hasn't changed ah?Isn't it still this box?
Yang Kong raised his head with question marks in his head, and before he opened his mouth to make a sound to ask Zhang Zhao what he was doing, a fist the size of a casserole arrived!

"Boom!" Zhang Zhao punched Yang Kongmu's nose bridge, and suddenly a sharp pain filled Yang Kongmu's whole body, and tears blurred his eyes.

He just wanted to open his mouth to yell twice, but there was another 'dong' sound, and Zhang Zhao pushed his knee between Yang Kongmu's legs.

Ma Yaozi, who was overly nervous behind him, subconsciously tightened his legs. It hurt so much that his knee was facing that thing!

'Heck! 'Yang Kongmu let out a sound from his throat, then twitched suddenly, rolled his eyes and passed out immediately.

He just fainted, still clamped his legs and twitched slightly on the ground, looking as miserable as he wanted!
