Daming heir

Chapter 518

Rebel today!

What Li Youfu heard was terrified, his legs became a little weak, if it wasn't for Li Zhicheng supporting him, he would have been completely unable to walk at this moment.

The bastard I watched growing up, now wants to kill officials and rebel.

Li Youfu, who had lived half his life, only felt that his whole body was weak, and his chest was stuffy.

He was supported by Li Zhicheng, or dragged from the ancestral hall to the courtyard at the back that had been vacant for many years.

Li Youfu looked at the gate of the courtyard which was partially hidden on one side, the figures of horses and a few helpers outside the gate.He sighed silently, looking at the room in front of him, wishing that those people inside were really just here to buy bluestone.

Li Zhicheng looked sideways at the patriarch's uncle, and whispered: "Uncle, leave everything to me later. Uncle, don't worry, there are knives hidden in Daniu and Xiaohu, and there must be more people than there. In Anle Village, no one can touch you, Uncle."

Li Youfu raised his head and looked at Li Zhicheng, who was a head taller than himself, because Li Zhicheng, who had practiced quarrying for many years in the quarry, did not speak out, but only had a look in his eyes that he hoped that the other party would be sure again.

Li Zhicheng chuckled lightly: "Uncle, don't worry!"

While talking, Li Zhicheng had already supported Li Youfu to the door, pressed his palm heavily on the door frame and pushed it inward.

The wooden shaft creaked.

Sun Cheng and the others who had been waiting in the house for a long time got up and looked at the door pushed open by Li Zhicheng.

"This must be the patriarch of Anle Village. In Xiasun Cheng, I met the old patriarch."

Sun Cheng was very polite, as if he hoped that Li Youfu, the patriarch of Anle Village, would let go later so that he could get back the bluestone for the new courtyard for his master.

Li Youfu glanced inside the room.

Except for the man who called himself Sun Cheng who spoke in front of his head, there were four other people standing on one side.

Li Youfu remembered Li Zhicheng's exhortation outside the house just now, and nodded: "It's too polite, so please sit down."

With that said, he arrived at the main seat, and immediately looked indifferently at Li Zhicheng who helped him come over.

Li Zhicheng looked Sun Cheng up and down, and said in a flat voice: "I, Li Zhicheng, is helping my uncle with some things in the village. I don't know where Brother Sun's home is, but there is such a good man as Brother Sun doing things for him."

Sun Cheng cupped his hands modestly: "Brother Li is polite. The master lives in Luoyang, and there are a few ancestral fields in the west of the city between Zhoushan and Luoshui. It's not a big family."

Li Zhicheng thought about it carefully, but said with a smile on his face: "There is an ancestral land between Zhoushan and Luoshui, so you can't be considered a big family. Brother Sun is humble, and it is really enviable to be able to work in this family."

What he said was also polite, but his eyes kept turning, as if he was examining whether the identity Sun Cheng said was true or not.

On the contrary, Sun Cheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the people of this mountain village could be so polite.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the four subordinates who brought him into the room.

"As for the matter of the master's family, those of us who are servants naturally don't dare to talk too much. This time I came to Anle Village, because the bluestones picked by your village are famous. The master's family feels that the bluestones can be used wherever they come from when building a new yard. It's better to let the folks in Henan Prefecture earn some scraps of money."

Li Zhicheng smiled, and sat opposite Sun Cheng: "Since Brother Sun is working in Luoyang, he probably knows about the river."

"It's only natural that the imperial court has made a national policy to control the river. This is a good thing for the common people on both sides of the river."

Li Zhicheng shook his head: "A good thing is a good thing, but something happened to the river now. Brother Sun didn't know about it, and the Henan government only issued an official document two days ago, asking our Anle Village not to stop quarrying this winter, and we must keep the stones on the river going."

As he spoke, Li Zhicheng gave Sun Cheng a sorry look.

Sun Cheng nodded: "We will naturally know about the matter on the river course. The courtyard of the Lord's house is also repaired, but it will definitely not miss the official business of the court and the government.

The master said that the work in the yard is a slow work, just wait for Anle Village to be free, and then send it to Qingshi.

If you are not at ease, I can also deposit some deposit here on behalf of the master's family, and put it on the deed. "

While talking, Sun Cheng got up and stepped forward, in front of Li Zhicheng.

He lowered his voice and said, "The master's family doesn't care. If Brother Li is willing to make this contract, the price will be [-]% higher than the public price. Brother Li and I will each share one part."

Hearing this, Li Zhicheng couldn't help narrowing his eyes slightly.

This person is still thinking about filling his own pocket in the process of buying bluestone.

For a while, he was a little confused as to whether this person had official status or not.

Li Zhicheng leaned back and said quietly: "Brother Sun's family can ask anyone for the public price on the market."

After finishing speaking, he stared at Sun Cheng with ambiguous eyes.

Sun Cheng rubbed his hands, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit beside Li Zhicheng.

With such a sudden movement, Li Zhicheng's thigh muscles under his trouser legs suddenly tightened, and his waist also tensed silently.

Sun Cheng's face was still cheerful, and he whispered: "Since brother Li understands the reason, there must be a way to deal with it."

While talking, he already put his left palm on the tea table between the two of them.

Such a movement made Sun Cheng's tense body relax for no reason.

He responded superficially: "If Brother Sun is not afraid of being found out by the master later, we can use inferior bluestones as the best bluestones. The price is the same, but the materials are different. Ordinary people can't see the difference between these ordinary stones."

"really?"

Sun Jianli showed surprise on his face.

Li Zhicheng just nodded lightly.

It's not just this kind of bluestone, if it's going to hurt people, there are piles of bluestone in Anle Village.

Build the yard today.

The yard will collapse tomorrow.

It's just that he absolutely dare not say this, at least for now Li Zhicheng still has doubts about this group of people named Sun Cheng in front of him.

Sun Cheng blushed, as if it was really only because of the price difference.

He stared at Li Zhicheng, seemingly casually said: "But I don't know if the cement factory can operate like this. Today, I took the post that the master got from the magistrate's office, and went into the factory to have a look. It seems that it is difficult to operate."

Sun Cheng didn't know that when he entered the cement factory, he had already been targeted by the people of Anle Village.

It was just because he was stopped by the people in the village when he entered the village before, and he saw figures swaying from time to time behind the gate of the ancestral hall ahead.

Only then did I explain it a little bit, so that I can sit down and do things for my master, and I also want to eat some things to fill my pockets with the difference.

Sun Cheng never thought that he was just trying to make himself appear more greedy for money.

In Li Zhicheng's eyes, it made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Together, when he looked at Sun Cheng again.Li Zhicheng's eyes also became calmer, and the original doubts in his heart were almost completely dispelled.

Since he lived in the Luoyang era, and had a large piece of land in such a good place between Zhoushan and Luoshui, he was naturally a big family who could be connected with the magistrate's yamen.

In this way, Sun Cheng in front of him can enter the cement factory with the post from the magistrate's office.

Li Zhicheng smiled and said, "There are many people working in Foguang Village next door, but there are none in Anle Village. Even if there is a way, it's beyond our knowledge."

Sun Cheng nodded: "Brother Li is able to help Qingshi, I am already very grateful, and the cement matter is no problem. If we can make Qingshi, the brothers can live a better life, and the boys at home can eat meat and read some books."

They are all members of Jinyiwei. They have been working on their muscles and bones on weekdays, and they are often on errands outside. They look like they are helping those rich families.

Li Zhicheng sighed: "Who says it's not, this shitty world..."

After all, he shut up immediately.

But Sun Cheng still had a slight twitch in his heart.

This person has a grudge.

Sun Cheng took advantage of the situation and said: "This day is just a full stomach. Brother Li, don't think I can walk outside with the government's post. That's what the master said, and I will run away when I wait for the brother. Brothers who don't want to live the life of the master, but they don't have that life..."

After finishing speaking, Sun Cheng glanced at Li Zhicheng indifferently, and moved his eyes along the way, and glanced at Li Youfu who was sitting in the main seat and never spoke.

"It's just a bad time to be born."

Li Zhicheng let out a long sigh, and after Sun Cheng looked over, he turned his head and looked outside the door.

"Brother Sun, I'm afraid the rain won't stop today. If you don't mind, I'll ask someone to clean up a few rooms here. Brother Sun and the brothers will stay overnight, and it won't be too late to leave when the sun clears tomorrow."

Sun Cheng was naturally happy to stay in Anle Village.

Immediately got up and said: "So, thank you brother Li."

After speaking, he turned around and faced Li Youfu who had been sitting on the main seat.

"I'm bothering the patriarch."

Li Youfu's eyes were calm, but he just nodded his head: "When you're away from home, it's about taking care of each other."

After a word, Li Youfu looked at Li Zhicheng.

Li Zhicheng understood, and immediately said to Sun Cheng: "Uncle is getting old, and he has to rest for a long time every day. Brother Sun, please stay here first, and I will send uncle back first."

"Brother Li, do as you please."

Sun Cheng nodded happily, and sent Li Youfu and Li Zhicheng all the way out the door, and then asked the other people guarding outside to set up the carriage.

After the courtyard was full of people from Jinyiwei, Sun Cheng walked out of the house and stood on the porch, watching the rainwater dripping from the eaves above his head.

"Zhenfu, that Li Zhicheng knows that we have been to the cement factory."

An officer and soldier of Jinyiwei who had been in the house earlier walked up behind Sun Cheng and whispered a reminder.

Sun Cheng nodded: "At first, I just wanted multiple excuses, but after talking about this matter, Li Zhicheng's attitude changed immediately..."

He looked at the rain curtain in front of him, looking straight ahead, as if he was going to pass through the ancestral hall of Anle Village in front, and look at Li Zhicheng and others who didn't know what they were doing.

"The subordinates believe that no matter what hidden secrets there are in Anle Village, they should send a message back at this moment, and mobilize troops to prevent the mountain people from making trouble."

Sun Cheng grasped the pillars under the porch with his palm, and said, "Two people will come out in the middle of the night and send troops to Luoyang City."

Now I'm just not sure what the problem is in Anle Village, but there must be a problem.

Sun Cheng even vaguely felt that Anle Village was one of the important reasons for the accident involving the river.

This is treason.

He made a decision on the deployment of troops, and there was Jin Yiwei, who was outside before, and said in a low voice: "Just now, someone from the ancestral hall went to the quarry on the mountain, and the subordinate thought it was calling someone back, in case we suddenly attack violently."

Sun Cheng's eyes were cold, and he snorted coldly: "The people on the quarry have strong limbs, and they will take turns to rest tonight, so they must be vigilant. Plant gunpowder everywhere, and if there is something that cannot be violated, they will rush out."

"The news from the mountain, you should be able to come back after dark."

Someone whispered behind Sun Cheng.

Those were the two Jin Yiwei who were in the village before, took the opportunity to leave the brigade, and quietly went up the mountain to investigate the situation.

Sun Cheng's eyes turned, and he said after a while: "You guys bury the pot to cook, and finish eating ahead of time."

Those around him nodded.

This is to prevent problems from eating the food in Anle Village.

……

When there is a problem, it is necessary to solve the problem.

What if the problem cannot be solved?
Then try to solve it through violence.

Luoyang City.

Because there was a problem with the bluestone found in the construction site of the section of the river in Mengjin County, all the officials involved in the river affairs in the entire Luoyang city were arrested and temporarily detained in the cell of the magistrate's yamen.

Under the rain, Zhu Yunxi stood at the head of Luoyang city, looking at the distant Luoshui passing through the city.

Wang Xinling, the governor of the Tongzheng Envoy, held an umbrella for him.

Ding Deng Deng.

In the sound of pattering rain, Tian Mai stepped on the accumulated water on the city wall, covered with moisture, and arrived behind Zhu Yunxi.

"Your Highness, Mr. Gao Ge will probably be able to arrive at Luoyang City before midnight tonight. Officials and officials related to river affairs in Henan Province have all been brought to justice."

Zhu Yunxi gently turned the white jade ring on his thumb: "Have you found anything?"

Tian Mai showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and said in a low voice: "There are a few apprentices of Zhang Hui, the hundred household officer of Jinyiwei, and his subordinates have been watching them all the time during the interrogation. It seems...these officials involved in river affairs have no problem..."

"Now there is only one place left that hasn't been investigated?"

Zhu Yunxi's eyes showed a relaxed charm, as long as there is no problem in the officialdom of the Henan government, then it will be the greatest blessing.

Tian Mai said: "Now there is only Anle Village, Fudian Town, Yanshi County, which is the source of bluestone for the river channel in Mengjin County, Henan Province. It has not been checked yet. However, Zhenfu Sun has been secretly checking everywhere outside for the past few days. Presumably, he should also find out about the bluestone field in Anle Village."

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand.

Tian Mai stepped aside immediately.

And he looked at Wang Xinling who was holding an umbrella for him, and smiled slightly: "You said, there is no problem on the river now, and there is no problem in Henan Province, so what is the problem?"

Wang Xinling didn't know why the emperor's grandson asked such a question, so he could only follow the trend: "Then there is only a problem at the source."

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "I just don't understand now, how they can make the bluestone as fragile as tofu."

Wang Xinling said in a low voice: "Thinking about it, there is some old way not to pass on..."

"Tian Mai."

Zhu Yunxi didn't play against Wang Xinling, but called Tian Mai instead.

Tian Mai immediately stepped forward: "The minister is here."

"Henan Wei, go out of a thousand households and enter the mountain. It's a day and night journey. Go and return quickly, so that this unsolved case on the river can be settled as soon as possible."

"The minister takes orders."
