Chapter 133 Bee Poison
Li Tong deliberately let himself get wet all the way, which looked pitiful, but the fifth reunion made him wait outside the premises like a dog falling into the water for a long time. His lips were so cold that he had to fall down at any time, so he was summoned to the premises.
Before entering the door, Li Tong met Cheng Chongzheng coming out from inside. Cheng Chong looked at Li Tong. In his eyes, Li was like a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. This guy smiled coldly, which made Li Tong think something was wrong.
After entering, he saw Zheng Tong standing behind his back with a knife, while the fifth reunion sat upright next to the desk. In the past, the doctor was tall and wide in his sleeves. Today, the fifth reunion was covered with armor and sword hanging around his waist, with a cold expression and murderous aura.
Li Tong immediately bowed to the ground: "The villain has met Doctor Boyu! Fortunately, the Doctor is fine."
But the fifth reunion did not get close to him: "Dimension... No, I should call you Li Tong. Now it is not a reminiscence, but an office worker. It is better not to call me a name, just call me an official position."
This official attitude made Li Tong feel terrified and he said again: "The front team has not been peaceful in recent years, and the bandits have been rampant. Li guards against thieves day and night. He never thought that these foreign thieves were so brave that they attacked Kenubo at night. When Tong learned about it, he came immediately."
"Even if I die, it's a trivial matter." Di Wulun sneered: "But if the prince is scared and injured, the princess is a big thing that is enough to shock His Majesty!"
Li Tong said anxiously: "Is the prince and the princess safe?"
Fifth Lun laughed: "Li Tong, you don't have to pretend anymore."
"Did you hear a saying that the thief called to catch the thief?"
This is probably not the idiom these days, but the literal meaning is there. Li Tong hurriedly bowed: "Doctor, my family is wronged!"
"I still dare to deceive me now!" Wu Ren was furious and said, "The attack occurred in Xixiang where the Ru family is located. The thief horses' hoof prints lead to your manor. He also found the discarded bow knife in Tianchou. County Magistrate Cen examined the knife, guess what? It was made by the iron workshop under the jurisdiction of the government!"
"And the suspicious people captured nearby also confessed that they were instructed by Li's command, surveillance missions all the way from us to return to the north, every move was in the eyes of Li's eyes. Li Tong, you have done a great job!"
This is the fifth reunion who is tying Li Tong. The man is a dead soldier. He stabbed him and died when he knew he could not escape. There is no direct evidence to prove that he was from the Li family. However, as long as the fifth reunion is willing, he can arrange some stories and report them to confirm.
Li Tong was panicked, but he was still insisting on his lips, bowing his head as if he was pounding garlic: "These evidences are too deliberate. It must be that the thief deliberately framed my house in order to escape. I hope Knu Bo Ming's observation!"
Of course, the fifth reunion knows that although Li Tong showed mediocre side in front of the fifth reunion, he should not be so stupid. After all, attacking the mission at his doorstep would not do any benefit to his family.
Although the rule of the new dynasty was gradually weakening, the local tyrants were still unable to fight against the central government. What they were good at was to infiltrate their own forces into the system and enter the omnipresent. Even though the Li family was the first prominent clan in the front team, with as many as two or three thousand, and many iron official slaves served for it, and their power was several times stronger than the fifth. However, the county soldiers and the command of the governor of Jingzhou were 20,000, were enough to wipe out the enemy.
Unless the powerful people engage in a joint task, they can change their colors.
Fearing this, although there are farmers everywhere in the world, there are still few rebellious tyrants. Now is a huge crisis that the Li family has never encountered in a century. If the fifth relationship is determined, they will join forces to make a serious general and report it to the county and court. If the Li family does not rebel, they can only wait for the Five Powers to make a decision. Although his family is in Nanyang, they have a good relationship with the governor of Jingzhou and the former team of the Dayin, but they have no power in the court, and their survival is lingering in Wang Mang's thoughts.
Once Li is killed, it will inevitably become a major event that shocks the front team, making everyone in the county tyrants themselves.
In this regard, the fifth reunion is irresistible, the only problem is...
Dividing up the Li family will only make Jingzhou Mu and the former team leader Da Yin. The fifth relationship is far apart and there is no share of the pie.
He would have no profit to push Li down the abyss. On the contrary, if Li was pulled, he would be able to take the opportunity to make a slap.
Wu Lun sighed: "Although I know this is too deliberate, it is really too difficult to clear the suspicion."
"A man is guilty of being guilty of being a treasure. How many people in the court are staring at Li. After all, your father is Zong Qing's master and the master of the national master. When the prince dies, the master of the national master is in an embarrassing situation..."
Showing room for reversal and then hinting at the seriousness and difficulty of the matter, this is to reach out to the Li family to see what they can do.
Li Tong knew it and immediately smiled: "Although the Tong family is not rich, they also have gold, silk, money and food. I wish to give it to Knu Bo and help my family operate..."
It’s boring to get the money directly. The fifth reunion shook his head. He was not short of money and grain now, and Guanzhong was far away from Nanyang. Even if Li Tong wanted to send him food in installments, it would be too troublesome.
Li Tong said again: "Tong's family has several sisters, and they are beautiful..."
The fifth family laughed silently. Marriage is not necessarily the best. Even a mother wants to stuff him.
Li Tong had wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger before, but he didn't know that the fifth reunion loved the tigers the most. If he showed his intelligence directly, the fifth reunion might be willing to make such a good relationship.
Now that the person who pretends to be a pig has become a real pig, he can only be lying flat and slaughtered.
"iron."
The fifth reunion reminded Li Tong that the richest thing in his family: "I heard that the Li family inherited the Wankong family's industry. There were as many as 100 smelting and casting workers in the family, and they also managed Wujun City and Iron Workshop for the court."
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Chu State and South Korea developed the iron ore in Nanyang, and there was a saying that "the iron spear is like a bee-shaped spear, which is as miserable as a bee-shaped spear.
After entering the Qin and Han dynasties, Nanyang's iron resources were developed more, especially the Wankong family was the most famous, and they became rich through smelting. By the time of Emperor Wu of Han, the Kong family also managed the iron officials' affairs for Emperor Wu of Han. When Wancheng's smelting industry was at its peak, the iron tools of dozens of counties in the west and southwest were all transported by Nanyang's iron officials.
After the decline of Kong's family, his younger brother Li inherited his status, called the official camp, but in fact the private iron workshop was Li's greatest reliance on his standing.
Although Guanzhong is a place where wealth is gathered in the world, its copper and iron resources are not rich. Although there are iron officials, there are only four places in total, namely Zheng County in Yiwei County, Xiayang in Shiwei County, Yong in Jingwei County, and finally Qi County, the northernmost part of Liewei County, the fifth old nest of the fifth reunion.
The fifth reunion is still unable to interfere with the iron officials, so he can only purchase smelted raw and cooked iron through various channels for reprocessing. But he can prepare for the future. In the future, the iron smelting industry must be started and done in a big way to continuously obtain the tools needed for farming soldiers.
Therefore, the fifth reunion also asked his caravan to search for blacksmiths everywhere, but the skilled blacksmiths are indeed difficult to work. They either go to workshops controlled by the government or rely on powerful people. Skilled workers are strategic resources. It is indispensable to train an apprentice in just a few years.
But Li's hands are countless, from mining experts to smelting and casting skilled workers, and many people have been dependent on their family for generations, like slaves.
When Li Tong learned that the thing the fifth rein asked for was actually an iron craftsman, he looked at the Knu Bo in surprise.
He is not greedy for wealth.
He is not obsessed with women.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he actually asked Li Tong to send a number of blacksmiths to Liewei County in batches. What are the iron smelting? It can't be casting plows and farming, it's a big plan for this fifth relationship. I never thought he was a fellow man!
But now he dares not say it, nor dares to ask.
This is destined to be an unfair transaction. From the beginning to the end, the fifth relationship did not guarantee that the Li family would be absolutely safe, and only agreed to "report the matter truthfully".
Whether the Li family dies or lives depends entirely on their intentions. By then, the fifth reunion will not say a word to put itself in.
But Li Tong could only grit his teeth to do this transaction, at least he won time and vitality for his family.
After talking about this, the fifth reunion resumed his name for Li Tong: "Dimension, who do you think this attack was done?"
Li Tong insisted: "It must be a Green Forest Thief!"
The fifth reunion was happy: "The green forest thieves in Jiangxia in the south have always been disliked to wander around. They only have their backs against the mountains, and are separated by 800 miles away. There are 20,000 troops from the governor of Jingzhou in the middle. How could they run to the vicinity of Wancheng?"
"The big thief can't, but the small thief can do it." Li Tong tried hard to get things back to his original plan.
Wu Lun tapped the desk with his finger: "You make sense, but most of the Green Forest thieves are from Jiangxia, Nanjun. They are not familiar with the front team and can go deeper into this place. There must be some local tyrants leading the way for them to cover up?"
He looked at Li Tong: "Dimension, Li wants to conduct self-inspection, actively cooperate with the government, and strive to clear the suspicion as soon as possible. But except for your family, which Haoyou in the front team may collude with Green Forest?"
Li Tong was stunned. Liu Bosheng's name was right next to his mouth, but he heard from the people who were following that the fifth reunion and Bosheng's brother had something to do, so he gave each other jade, so he swallowed it back, saying, "Tong doesn't know..."
This Li Tong is interesting. When has it been since he still bit people? It seems that he has a big heart under the mediocrity that has always been disguised as mediocrity, but now he can't help it.
After Li Tong went down, the fifth reunion attracted Cheng Chong: "In my opinion, it is not only the Li family that is suspected, but also the heroes of the Nanyang clans, such as Xinyeyin, Deng, and even Anzhong Liu and Chongling Liu, must be thoroughly investigated!"
What's the point of staring at a bee?
Since I want the court to focus on the south so that Guanzhong is empty, then just poke the hornet's nest!
The Five Powers will not do anything else, and they will never disappoint the innocent people and force the hesitant people to the opposite side of the court!
Besides, after looking at the fifth reunion, many Haoyou can also play x on the list, which is not unfair.
In the next year, the former team is destined to be in chaos. The powerful people who were forced by the court will even have a fantasy linkage with the Southern Green Forest.
It's like a giant iron spear, as miserable as a bee? This move is the real bee poison!
The fifth reunion decided to leave a big surprise to the former team's powerful men before the end of this trip.
Relying on the intelligence network of Li's family near Wancheng, Cen Peng quickly found the real murderer who attacked the camp last night.
"I found a team of people leaving Wancheng Xixiang and fled west along the path, as if they were about to escape into Yushan, Guanjun County!"
"Is it because Cen Junran once mentioned that the thief from Yushan did?" The fifth reunion was a little confused. What was the thief from Yushan doing this? From Li Tong, he also learned the name of the "Jia Datou" in Yushan.
"This man was a salt officer in the Champion County, and later, for some reason, gathered hundreds of people and became a thief."
Li Tong now knows everything: "His real name is 'Jia Fu'!"
