The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 196 Who will pay the money?

Jingli was worried about the lack of news, and Yang Hong wasn't doing much better either.

As soon as he returned home, he hurriedly called Wang Minghai, the boss of the Wang family, and said, "You told me categorically that the people over there were rebellious and secretly making weapons. But where are the weapons now? Where are the weapons?"

Yang Hong slapped the table and roared angrily, with veins protruding on his neck and his eyes so red that he almost wanted to eat someone.

When he left Beishui Village, the bachelor was acting like a rogue, telling people to come after him.

But I was actually scared. What was Bai Changhe’s identity? What was his identity?If they really want to meet each other, it won't be enough to serve Bai Changhe, let alone the King of Changling who doesn't know whether it is true or false.

Wang Minghai shook his fat body, with a look of panic on his face: "Sir, this is not right. Someone saw them holding long knives with their own eyes. This cannot be true!"

"Could it be that you got the news in advance and hid it?"

Yang Hong gritted his teeth and said, "As you said, the blacksmith has been hammering all the time in the winter, and he noticed that no one was moving anything into the mountain, so I asked for a sudden inspection."

"Where do you think they hid their things suddenly? Could there be immortals to help out and cause a great shift in the world?"

Yang Hong is Yang Hao's cousin, and naturally he is also a cousin to the Wang family. If something happens to the Wang family, he will naturally know about it.

That day, Wang Minghai came and said that someone had seen people in Beishui Village secretly making weapons.

Yang Hong had also heard about the Jing family's rebellion against the Liao people, and felt that it was definitely not a fake. He went up to the peak without asking for instructions, fearing to alarm Bai Changhe, so he led a group of brothers and killed him.

If this thing comes to fruition, the Wang family will definitely benefit from it. If they can pull Bai Changhe down, then Shangfeng, who has always been at odds with Bai Changhe, will definitely have to promote him.

Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened, and no evidence was found. Looking back, I thought, how dare a group of refugees who escaped from famine dare to make weapons privately?
It's nothing more than packing some farm tools and the like, saving a few scraps of silver.

Besides, the first one is still a girl. When I look at it today, I don’t think the girl is provocative. She is just a little more courageous than the girl in the boudoir. If a girl wants to rebel, she won’t be afraid of being laughed at if she says it.

Wang Minghai was startled: "Did you not check carefully?"

Yang Hong gritted his teeth and said: "Even the dog hole has been dug, I can't bury my knife in it, can I?"

"Wang Minghai, I'm being blackmailed now. I don't know when General Bai will come to question me. How do you think we're going to handle this?"

Wang Minghai, who was several decades old, was scolded by Yang Hong until he couldn't hold his head up. He left Yang's house in despair, unable to figure out what went wrong.

Yang Hong did not dare to go to Duchasi today and stayed at home uneasily waiting for Bai Changhe to come and ask for punishment.

But he didn't wait until dark to see Bai Changhe. What was waiting was his immediate boss Zhang Mu.

"Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Or is there grass growing inside? A group of refugees are making farm tools. Why don't you say they are rebelling if they are making weapons privately?"

Zhang Mu was scolded when he came in. He and Bai Changhe had never been on good terms. He was in charge of Kyoto and Bai Changhe was stationed in Chang'an.

Once Kyoto fell, when he arrived in Chang'an, he was a little lower than Bai Changhe, and there was always a gloomy feeling in his heart that he couldn't breathe out.

Zhang Mu had been looking for Bai Changhe's pigtails and planned to find an excuse to push him down. But before he could find an excuse, Bai Changhe took the lead.

"Old Zhang! I know you are unconvinced and have always had prejudices against me, but you are serving the country and being loyal to your majesty. I don't care about these things with you!" "But I never expected that you have such a mind. He is so narrow-minded and can't find anything wrong with me, but he actually goes after my relatives at home. What other intention is there to rebel?"

"A group of farmers who have just settled down and don't even have enough to eat. If you say they are rebellious, you might as well say I am rebellious to be more realistic, right?"

Bai Changhe held the gun and the stick and damaged them, and Zhang Mu felt like his old face had been torn off and thrown to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.

It wasn't over yet, so Bai Changhe took out a bill and said, "Old Zhang, you know that I am from a humble background, and I am not as good as you, the children of high-ranking families."

"These relatives are all digging in the soil. Look at the losses."

"This is because one of my men is unhappy with General Bai. I will pay the money, and I will pay it for sure!" Zhang Mu agreed without waiting for Bai Changhe to finish.

Bai Changhe was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "Look, I just said that you, Lao Zhang, are a happy person, not my brother. You must be beaten hard when these men should be beaten. Otherwise, if anything happens, it will always be our fault." Isn’t it true that the superiors are responsible for everything?”

Zhang Mu sent Bai Changhe away holding his breath, turned around, put the bill in his arms, and arrived at Yang Hong's house.

Zhang Mu scolded him so much that his saliva flew out, and the spittle splashed directly on Yang Hong's face, but Yang Hong didn't dare to wipe it, he lowered his head and endured it.

"Tell me about you. After all, you have been in the military camp for more than ten years, and you have been hanging out in the court for seven or eight years. In these years, you should have learned something just by looking at it!"

"But what are you thinking in your head, Kuchiki? This kind of thing either has to be hit with one hit, or it has to be controlled by others. Now that I am being manipulated by that country bumpkin, what do you want to do about it?"

Yang Hong did not dare to raise his head and said cautiously: "Sir, since those people are capable of killing the Liao people, I think this matter may not be groundless. Why don't we investigate more carefully?"

"Bang!" Zhang Mu slammed the table: "Still checking? You want me to take off my hat and accompany you to check, right?"

"Whether this is true or not, let me stop it right here."

Zhang Mu took out the bill and slapped the table: "This is the loss of those people. Bai Laogou sent it personally. I will give you three days to settle this matter. You can handle it yourself."

Yang Hong took the bill and glanced at it casually. He was so frightened that he almost couldn't breathe: "Sir, this... why is this 2 taels again?"

Isn’t it twelve thousand three hundred taels?Why are there an extra few thousand taels?Who added it?

Zhang Mu rolled his eyes at him: "Is this important?"

The answer is that it doesn't matter. Things that can be settled with money are nothing. If Bai Changhe takes the opportunity to make trouble, he will be in trouble.

Of course, things that can be settled with money are not a problem. Yang Hong also knows this truth, but the problem is that he has no money. His little salary plus gray income is now just more than a thousand taels of savings, which is simply a drop in the bucket.

Yang Hong went to Wang's house at night and threw the order directly in front of Wang Minghai: "Two days, you only have two days. If you don't get enough money in two days, I can only use you to appease General Bai's anger. .”

"When the time comes to incite public dissatisfaction, create disputes, and intend to frame a third-rank official in the court, don't say that I, a cousin, don't care about family ties."

Wang Minghai took the bill tremblingly. He had not been so humiliated for several years since his cousin married a princess.

"Bitch! How dare you hurt me!"
