Xiao Jiuxi went out quickly, leaving only Xiao Zhe in the big tent without saying a word for a long time.

Jing Lei looked at the silent Xiao Zhe and sighed helplessly.

King Shang didn't know how difficult life is for the prince without the grace, and the task assigned by His Majesty, the prince has to do everything he can to complete it.

In these years, in order to provide enough iron ore for the imperial court, the prince did not know how much he paid.

However, once there is not enough iron ore, His Majesty will impose punishments. Punishment of the prince's monthly salary is a trivial matter, and the most venomous thing is to sit on those miners.

The imperial decree said that the disadvantage of mining is not the fault of the mountain king but the lack of ability of the miners. The mining area does not allow useless people or people who leak secrets, so the useless people are killed to prevent leaks.

As long as Xiao Zhe closes the mine today, he will definitely not be able to hand over enough iron ore this year, not to mention the miners here, and even their families will not be able to keep them.

Xiao Zhe shook his head with a sneer: "A naive child who only knows one thing but doesn't know the other, but after being praised a few times, he really thinks he is wise and kind."

……

Xiao Jiuxi walked out of Xiaozhe's big tent and walked all the way to the live mine. At this time, those people who were lying in the iron smelting shed who came to help dig, all of them were more or less injured, and some of the wounds were even pussy. festered.

However, due to the rubbing and rubbing in the excavation work every day, they didn't care too much.

However, if these wounds are seen by the doctors, I am afraid they will shake their heads again and again, criticizing them for being unfilial.

After all, how can the parents who are physically, hair and skin be treated so harshly.

Xiao Jiuxi frowned and forced himself to look away. These are Xiao Zhe's people, he doesn't feel sorry for them, so why worry about them.

Even if he worries about it himself, it will only make Xiao Zhe suspicious in the end, saying that he is just a wolfish ambition to buy people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiuxi quickened his pace and returned to the active mining area.

The main purpose of this rescue is to save lives. The people in these live mines are the last survivors. If they are rescued, he will complete his meritorious deeds.

It is better to go home than to stay here to piss off Brother Huang. Anyway, his wife and children are waiting for him to go back at home.

In this way, Xiao Jiuxi quickly returned to the active mining area to dig with the soldiers, and he didn't bother to take care of other business.

However, what should come still came.

About two days later, people in the crowd suddenly fell down one after another.

Those are all digging in dead mines, people who have touched dead people.

"It's not good, someone fainted."

"Where is the doctor, come and see the doctor!"

"It's a plague, it's a plague! Someone is infected with corpse plague!"

……

From far away, Xiao Jiuxi heard shouts from the dead mining area.

At this time, their excavation work is coming to an end, and the last live mine is about to be dug through.

And this wailing soon spread in the mining area, and everyone couldn't help but pause.

Xiao Jiuxi said in a deep voice: "Everyone, don't panic, we are all prepared, as long as the protection cannot be broken, the plague can't find us, dig quickly, and we can go home after digging!"

"Yes!"

There has been a mess over there, and many people have to run back after losing their tools. After all, once the corpse plague appears, it will often kill and injure a large number of people. It is the best choice to stay far away before it breaks out.

However, just as they fled, Xiao Zhe's people appeared over there, and they directly blocked everyone's way with their swords drawn.

"No one can go without the order of the king of the mountain."

"My lord, there is corpse plague now! Corpse plague is contagious, let us leave before we catch it."

"Yeah, don't delay any longer, there is no hope for any further delay."

"My eldest brother has already been buried here, I can't fold it here again, otherwise our family will lose incense!"

Xiao Jiuxi couldn't help frowning as he watched the tugging over there.

In the end, the last thing you want to see will happen, but once it happens, it can't be easily cured.

At this time, the people in Long Xiaoying also knew that the situation outside was unusual, so they couldn't help but speed up their movements a little.

One side is digging crazily, and the other side is confronting crazily. In the end, some people are too afraid to force the card and be killed.

The murder finally happened.

Xiao Jiuxi looked at the people who were suppressed in an instant, but couldn't help it, and left again.

"My lord, where are you going!" Liu Zheng was a little worried that he would get involved in Shanwang's internal affairs.

After all, this is the mountain king's family affairs, so it's better for the prince not to participate. Just when he wanted to chase after him, Yige made a move first: "Don't worry, the master is calmer than his appearance, as long as the camp owner believes in the master."

"..." Liu Zheng frowned, and a thousand words turned into a sigh.

On the other side, Xiao Jiuxi hurriedly walked to Xiao Zhe's big tent. At this time, Xiao Zhe had changed from his previous sloppy appearance, as if he had specially washed himself last night.

He returned to the appearance of the high and mighty prince again.

Xiao Jiuxi didn't care, and went straight to the point: "You want people or political achievements!"

Xiao Zhe looked up at him coolly: "What does it have to do with you?"

"Why has nothing to do with me? Am I on the outside at this time? If the corpse plague really happened, do you think I can be good?
If you listened to me in the past two days, you would have nothing, but it is still too late, before the corpse plague spreads, quickly block this place. "

Xiao Zhe smiled: "We are not in the same camp after all, isn't it good for you to look at me? Why do you help me like this."

Xiao Jiuxi couldn't help sighing, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"How many times have I said this? I'm not interested in the throne. If you want to sit on it directly, no matter what camp or camp, my enemy is only the ambitious Dong Zhao! I care more about territory being violated than infighting!"

Xiao Zhe never thought that Xiao Jiuxi would answer like this, and at this moment he was also a little stunned: "You...are you serious?"

"Otherwise? If you think about it, if we really fight among ourselves, or even fight each other because of this, who will benefit in the end? I just pulled out a spy restaurant in Dongzhao from Taihe Prefecture a few days ago. This restaurant is in our Dachu Every state has it, you say, if he doesn't have wolf ambitions, why do he do so many secret operations in our big Chu?
Let me explain to you more clearly, in the capital before, do you know why my father summoned me alone?Are you being a father to give me a little trouble?
Oh, that's because the father was poisoned and died, and the murderer pointed directly at Dong Zhao.

If Dong Zhao really succeeded, what do you think we will become now?According to the imperial brother's thirst for the throne and his rival's suspicion, I'm afraid the fight has already begun, right? "

Xiao Jiuxi's words contained a lot of information, and Xiao Zhe was stunned for a long time, his face full of disbelief.

"You... Royal father... He... Is what you said true?"

"I'm lying to you, I'm a dog." Xiao Jiuxi couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Brother Sanhuang, please be sober, our family is a team, you don't have to worry about me, if you want to sit in that position, I will assist you, It's not just me, Brother Four is the same, we have the same blood on our bodies, only we will not betray you, compared to us, what you should really guard against are those who divide us."
