Chapter 140 Knowing that planning ahead is king

Mu'an Mountain Village has no longer had the hustle and bustle of the past, and the quietness in the blue sky and daylight are very strange. Women can see that the situation is wrong, but they have nowhere to go, and they can only gather together helplessly to wait for their destiny.

In the hall, the three brothers of the Guan family were tied up and could not move. Guan Ba ​​looked at Qiu Ji with hatred and cursed: "Shameless child, I have used such despicable means. I, Guan Ba, will never let you, be peaceful if I die," he said.

He was silent in cursing, and Qiu Ji didn't even look at it, and asked Li Da: "Have you taken it all?"

"It's all taken down, but what should those women do?"

"Most of these women were caught at the foot of the mountain. If they had a home, they would let them go back. If they were homeless, they would be temporarily escorted."

Li Da received the order and stepped down to arrange for the women to return. Wei Zha followed him, followed by Zhao Guang, who was wrapped in a cotton coat. Seeing that his face was still pale, it was obvious that he was very cold this time.

"The last general----" Zhao Guang was about to knock on the rituals, but Qiu Ji stopped him: "These rituals will be spared. Deputy General Zhao and all the soldiers suffered this time. After returning, I will definitely ask for merit for you in front of the emperor."

Zhao Guang's hands were still trembling. They had indeed frozen on the ice for seven or eight days, and had already reached their limit. There were still many people who fainted from the cold and had not woken up yet.

Although it was a pain, the result was gratifying. After all, if Muanshan was really far above them, if it were a war, his own people would definitely be killed or injured.

But when Qiu Ji acted like this, they were at most a little cold, but everyone was still alive and not injured. This was the first time he had encountered a battlefield but was still safe.

Zhao Guang's speech was not very straightforward, but he still held his fist and said in admiration: "Young Master Qiu's magic tricks are so good that he dare not take credit. If the young master hadn't thought of such a clever trick and let someone climb up from the west and attack, we would have been a tough battle."

After hearing this, Guan Ba ​​and the other two were shocked and unbelievable. They still hadn't figured out how they had caught Dao'er, and how Qiu Ji's people drugged them.

"Impossible, there are cliffs to the west, how can you come up easily?" Guan Babuxin said.

He had personally visited the terrain there, a naturally formed cliff that could not come up or go down, which was the best fortification.

It is precisely because of this that he was relieved not to arrange for anyone to defend, but unexpectedly this place became his own gap.

Zhao Guang was proud and spitted at Guan Hai, "That's because you don't have the courage. My court has so many talented people. What's the point of a cliff?"

Guan Hai glared at Zhao Guang hatefully. He claimed to be smart. He saw Zhao Guang and his party appearing on the river, so he was very proud of this, thinking that he had seen through the other party's measurement.

But who knew that these people were just playing tricks with him just to restrain and distract him from the attention. If he hadn't been stubbornly consuming this group of people, he wouldn't have even no chance to resist now.

"Brother, it's all my fault. If I don't be arrogant, I will not let these people get a chance." Guan Hai was so upset that he wanted to kill him.

Guan Shan looked at him with a sad face, and regretfully wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide, "It's my fault. If I weren't reckless, I wouldn't have been caught by these people."

Guan Ba ​​was so angry that he couldn't speak, so he could only turn his head aside. To make a mistake, his biggest mistake was that he should not underestimate this young man. Who would have thought that this man would be so decisive and ruthless at such a young age?

Zhao Guang spat: "If you don't have that ability, you dare to be a rebel. If you don't have the ability, you will end up like this."

Guan Ba ​​said angrily: "Anyway, today is in your hands. If you want to kill and cut, you will be able to listen to the emperor. Why do you do so much nonsense?"

"Killing you just relieves my hatred." Zhao Guang's hands and feet are still numb and unconscious, so it would be strange if he doesn't hate him in his heart.

Seeing his face pale, Qiu Ji advised: "Person General Zhao, go and have a good rest. If the cold air enters his body, he may suffer from the root of the disease in the future. I will leave it here to me."

Zhao Guang was indeed very cold and dizzy. There was nothing he had to do here, so he bowed and said, "I will obey the order." Before leaving, he did not forget to take a look at Guan Ba ​​and the other two.

Guan Ba ​​and the other two were to be sent back to the capital alive. Qiu Ji ordered people to detain the three of them in a mountain village and wait for the capital. The others were sent to Weicheng and asked the magistrate to temporarily detain the county magistrate to wait for disposal.

When everyone dispersed in the hall, Qiu Ji asked Wei Zha, "How about the twenty casualties?"

Wei Zha sighed and said regretfully: "A total of nine people fell down the cliff, probably because they were broken."

Qiu Ji was silent for a moment and said slowly: "The fallen people give each household one hundred gold, and the others give each household thirty gold-------"

He paused and added: "If you have male men in these twenty families, if you want to enroll in the five or fifteen years, you can go to Chongshan Academy, sixteen or twenty years. If you want to join the army, you can go to the Sixteen Guards."

Wei Zha said in surprise: "Young Master, although Chongshan Academy is not as good as Yangshan Academy, it is quite famous in Beijing and has high requirements for admission.

These twenty families are ordinary people, and they don’t know what their qualifications are. If you recommend these people, how old dean has to be so big that he will be able to take away all his talents. His temperament of not suffering losses will definitely want to peel off the young master.

There are many things that are easier to deal with in Qianhushou. He has always had good friends with the young master, and there is just a shortage of people. It will be appropriate to send the Sixteen Guards to the generals."

"You chose these twenty households in Beijing. What do you think they are qualified?" Qiu Ji glanced at Wei Zha lightly.

Wei Zha's mind suddenly turned around, annoyed that he was talking too much. He chose this person. If he said he was not qualified, he would not have done his job well.

He laughed dryly: "The people who chose these young people are of course of good qualifications, but the nine sons of Longsheng are different, so who knows what other people do?"

"A tiger father has no dog son."

Wei Zha blinked and nodded silently: "What the young master said is that the young man will arrange this matter immediately when he returns to Beijing."

After staying in Weicheng for a few days, when Zhao Guang and his group recovered, Qiu Ji ordered his departure to return to Beijing.

At that time, Qiu Wanao, who was far away in the capital, had already received news. He took advantage of the morning court to talk about this matter, and said that he was very interested in seeking credit for Qiu Ji.

In fact, the news has long been spread to the capital. After all, Qiu Ji has an extraordinary identity. As the son of the auxiliary, he is another case. He led troops to attack the rebels for the first time. He was talked about by others. Now he is going to return triumphantly. Who wouldn't discuss it after dinner?

If he said that the person who was really frustrated was Xin Zhongqiao, who was proposed to attack the rebels, he did not expect that he would accidentally make a wedding dress for the Qiu man.

There is an old saying that goes well, but it’s not better than not. He was shocked. He used to think that his son was also excellent in addition to being more irrational and ignorant.

But now compared with Qiu Jiyi, he felt that he was just a waste. Thinking of this, he scolded Xin Xiran, who was in Yangshan Academy.

But he was angry, and he had no refutation in the court and could only force his smile to congratulate Qiu Wanao.

"Ah------" Somewhere in Yangshan Academy, Xin Xiran sneezes without warning, rubs his nose and says to Yao Si: "Qiu Ji is coming back, does Sister Yao know?"
