Chapter 344 The Butcher's Knife Comes(1/2)

Before sunset, Liu Jianji finished preparing the food at home, but the food at Liu's family was only more than 6,000, and the amount was still far behind.

When night fell, Liu Song personally took the opportunity to transport the grain to the place designated by the Yuan Dynasty to hand over the grain.

"What are you doing!"

Due to the war, when night falls, the entire Lu'an City will be curfewed, and there are also a large group of Yuan Dynasty cavalry patrolling back and forth.

So Liu Song and his men went out shortly after they met the patrolling Yuan Dynasty cavalry.

"Old Liu Song, follow the emperor's order and go to the warehouse to hand over the food!"

Liu Song quickly replied, after all, during this period of contact, the Yuan Dynasty gave him the impression that the Yuan Dynasty had was barbaric.

"Pay the food!"

The general in charge raised his eyebrows, then walked forward and checked it carefully.

When I saw dozens of large trucks filled with food, my complexion became a little better.

“Why not give me during the day?”

After the inspection, the general asked, with a little suspicious tone.

"I dare not neglect the emperor's orders. I am ready during the day today and I will send them overnight!"

This answer surprised the general. He looked at Liu Song carefully before speaking, "I'll send you there."

The generals of the Yuan Dynasty were still a little suspicious and worried that something would go wrong, so they had to monitor the Liu family and their group.

"There is an old general."

After speaking, dozens of large trucks started to move under the guidance of livestock.

In less than half an hour, the group arrived at the grain warehouse in Lu'an City.

The grain warehouse is right behind the government office, and this area is also the base camp of the Yuan Dynasty. Ye Hezhen and a group of generals of the Yuan Dynasty are all here.

"National Master, Liu Song has come to pay the grain and has arrived outside the treasury..."

A general of the Yuan Dynasty reported the situation to Wei Hong because he was responsible for the collection of grain.

"Liu Song is here to pay the food!"

Wei Hong was a little surprised, and glanced at the person who reported the situation and asked, "Is there something else?"

"No."

"Follow me."

After saying that, Wei Hong left the government office and went to the treasury behind.

A quarter of an hour later, Wei Hong and Liu Song met.

"It's surprising that Mr. Liu is here to deliver the food so late."

As soon as we met, Wei Hong spoke first, with a deep tone in his tone.

"I am worried that it will delay major issues if I send it too late."

Liu Song responded with a smile, paused, and added: "And I dare not neglect the emperor's orders."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wei Hong's expression relaxed a little. He knew that this was Liu Song's statement.

"The old man knows the general idea. If the emperor knew the old man's performance, he would be very satisfied."

Wei Hong has a gentle attitude towards people who know the current affairs and is willing to give him a good face.

"This is what I should do!"

Then the topic changed: "But only 6,000 yuan of grain reserves in my family, and it will take one or two days to raise the remaining ones. I hope the national teacher will not be surprised."

These words made Wei Hong a little different, but he immediately said: "This is a trivial matter."

He said this, but Wei Hong felt a little suspicious in his heart, thinking secretly whether something was going to happen...

"The national teacher, some people are very dissatisfied with the collection of grain. They even want to see the emperor together, and want to persuade the emperor to take back his life."

Before Wei Hong could figure it out, Liu Song spoke again and reminded him.

"That includes Zhang Mingde!"

Wei Hong immediately understood what Liu Song meant and also knew why the other party delivered food overnight.

"well!"

Liu Song did not answer, but just sighed, as if he was helpless.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, you will not be involved."

A guarantee made Liu Song completely relieved and thought to himself, Zhang Mingde, Zhang Mingde, you may be seeking death...

Liu Song was thinking well at all, because the actions of the gentry were always under Wei Hong's attention.

After all, he was cautious and understood the style of the gentry in the Chan Dynasty, so how could he not make any preparations?

So Zhang Mingde could not hide the fact that he went to the Liu family compound at all. He just didn't know what the two sides had talked about and didn't do anything.

"Thank you, the National Master!"

Both sides are smart people, so there is something that naturally needs to be said thoroughly, so when I arrived, Liu Song said goodbye and left.

"You can see the situation clearly!"

After Liu Song left, Wei Hong said lightly, then called a general and whispered something.

At the same time, in the city, the Chen family compound, more than a dozen gentry were gathering together and talking about something.

Among the gentry, there was Zhang Mingde, who was the one in charge, not him, but a middle-aged man in his thirties.

"Tomorrow morning, we will ask Emperor Yuan to meet him, ask him to fulfill his promise and take back his life."

After a while of conversation, the middle-aged man spoke, looking very handsome.

"good."

"That's it."

"I rely on my nephew..."

The echoes of the voices came one after another, and they all agreed with this opinion.

The next morning, more than a dozen gentry gathered in the Lu'an Prefecture Office and asked to meet Emperor Yuan.

The person in charge was the middle-aged man yesterday, named Chen Shaocong, the head of the Chen family in Lu'an.

This person is a little stupid. He inherited the position of head of the family just because he is the only son of the Chen family.

However, Chen Shaocong was stupid, but the Chen family was a local family with a high prestige. So yesterday, Zhang Mingde, who left the Liu family compound, found this person and encouraged him to come forward to fight the grain collection.

Chen Shaocong is much easier to deceive than Liu Song. In addition, after becoming the head of the family, he was ignored by everyone and always wanted to do something and show himself. He was soon persuaded by Zhang Mingde to be the leader.

Although the other gentry resisted collecting grain, most of them knew the reason for shooting the first bird, so they were naturally happy that Chen Shaocong stood up and hid behind him.

"Your Majesty can you see me just by saying that you can see me!"

Faced with the gentlemen's request for advice, the guard refused without hesitation and looked like a fierce and evil look.

"Student Chen Shaocong, the head of the Chen family, asked to meet Emperor Yuan today for the purpose of collecting grain."

He paused and continued to speak: "When Emperor Yuan entered the city, he made a promise to us and would be completely unfair..."

Chen Shaocong began to reason, looking righteous and righteous, and the gentry nodded frequently.

"Stop talking, get out of here."

However, the Yuan Dynasty general who guarded the government office ignored these matters and even drew out his sword.

Facing the sword, the gentry was a little scared, but they had seen many big scenes, and even if they were afraid, they did not retreat immediately.

"You dare to be so arrogant..."

Chen Shaocong said angrily, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

“Too presumptuous.”

"It's lawless."

"This is the promise that Emperor Yuan gave us."

The other gentry also expressed their support and condemned the generals of the Yuan Dynasty.

But no one noticed that in this matter, Zhang Mingde, who was the most happy to dance, had quietly retreated and finally left the crowd.

Because Zhang Mingde had already felt that something was wrong, after all, Ye Hezhen had not shown up, and it was incomprehensible to be with a general of the Yuan Dynasty...

"These Nan barbarians are really brave!"

Ye Hezhen said coldly as he listened to the noise outside.

"Your Majesty, the Ganchao army is still siegeing the city, so the city must remain stable!"

Wei Hong said with a little concern in his tone.

After all, the gentry class is not small, and there are more than 200,000 troops outside the city, which are attacking the city. If they cooperate inside and outside, it will be troublesome.
To be continued...
