Hold His Hand

The morning of the day started after noon, and it didn't end until it was dark.

Although Xie Chengze gave the DPRK and Chinese officials a disgrace when he came up, these officials still did not cooperate very much after that.

Xie Chengze took it easy and killed a few more.

There are many crimes, and there are many people on his must-kill list. He can kill slowly.

In the process, he can also investigate other people's crimes and kill a few more.

He wants to let the aristocratic family of Dayan Mokong fall apart in his hands.

He is also paving the way for Lu Yanzhou.

If these people do not solve it, Lu Yanzhou will inevitably encounter a lot of resistance from the aristocratic family in the future.

But when he disintegrates the power of the aristocratic family and kills them again, when Lu Yanzhou comes to the capital, he will naturally be regarded as the savior by these people.

When the time comes, they will obey Lu Yanzhou and work for Lu Yanzhou.

Xie Chengze didn't plan to do so much, but Lu Yanzhou kept writing to him for several years, weaving a sweet dream for him, and he always wanted to give Lu Yanzhou some thanks.

He had done so much, and he could give Lu Yanzhou a good reason to kill him.

Xie Chengze returned to his residence and asked his servants to clean the house where he and Lu Yanzhou lived tomorrow.

He's been living elsewhere for years, but now...he wants to go back.

Back at the place where he lived alone, Xie Chengze took out the letter Lu Yanzhou wrote to him recently.

When Lu Yanzhou wrote this letter, the Wang family had not yet arrived at Lu Yanzhou's place, and the letter was full of affection as always.

The letter is very long, but Xie Chengze has read it several times, and he can already memorize some fragments.

After reading the letter written by Lu Yanzhou, he took out the letter written by Xie Jia again.

Xie Jia also called him "Master", and then wrote down all Lu Yanzhou's recent actions, the meaning is obvious - Lu Yanzhou has been thinking about him, and there is no one else around.

Xie Chengze didn't believe it.

Xie Jia is now one of Lu Yanzhou's generals. If he can be valued by Lu Yanzhou, he must be loyal to Lu Yanzhou and help Lu Yanzhou.

Xie Jia should be coaxing him with Lu Yanzhou.

But he liked it.

The letters made him tell himself that he had always been loved.

Xie Chengze went to bed early, but the aristocratic family in the capital had already become a bird in shock.

Today's court, for them, is to walk around the gate of hell.

They don't remember what they discussed when they went to court today. They only remember that when they went to court, there were always eunuchs cleaning up the blood inside and outside the hall.

The smell of blood made them want to vomit, and the sound of splashing water made their scalps tingle. In their eyes, the hall had become hell, and Xie Chengze sitting on the dragon chair was clearly King Yama!

They don't even know how they got home!

"Xie Chengze has gone crazy."

"He knows that he won't live long, this is to drag all of us to bury!"

"What should I do? Do you want to go to court tomorrow?"

…

They are going to die if they don't go to court, and they may not be able to live if they go to court!

After everyone was in despair, they began to hope that someone could save them.

"Why haven't Sun Chongshao and Yan Hang come to the capital yet?"

"Whoever it is, come to the capital quickly and kill Xie Chengze!"

"We can't be discouraged. No matter how crazy Xie Chengze is, when the rebels enter the capital, he will definitely not end well!"

"I want to live well and wait to see Xie Chengze die!"

"Xie Chengze's fate must be worse than ours!"

…

After thinking that Xie Chengze would be miserable in the future, these officials finally felt a little better.

This evening, some officials who thought they had integrity and could not submit to eunuchs hanged themselves at home.

However, the vast majority of people obediently went to the morning court the next day.

There are even people who are afraid of death who are very obedient and flatter Xie Chengze.

As a result, Xie Chengze said that this person was too ugly, so he was dragged out and chopped up.

Xie Chengze's appearance was moody in the eyes of those officials, but Xie Chengze and Xie Chengze's confidants knew that the official who was killed because he was ugly was actually a villain who did many evils.

After that, Xie Chengze killed a few more people on the grounds that someone's beard was not pleasing to the eye, and that someone looked at him in the wrong way.

When the officials left the palace that day, their faces turned pale, and some people fell to the ground as soon as they left the palace.

Xie Chengze looked at these people from a distance and was in a good mood.

"Godfather, you can disclose the crimes of those people." Sheng Yuan said.

Xie Chengze killed all the people who should be killed. If he disclosed the crimes of these people, then these officials would not be so afraid, and the people in the capital would not regard Xie Chengze as a man-eating demon.

Xie Chengze said, "It's not necessary."

"Godfather!" Sheng Yuan was a little anxious.

Xie Chengze raised the corner of his mouth: "Even if I publish the crimes of these people, others will not believe it."

"Then Yan Hang..." Sheng Yuan frowned, if Xie Chengze was doing things to kill the people, then when Yan Hang came, he could naturally let Xie Chengze go.

But now that Xie Chengze is so willful, can Yan Hang let him go?

Xie Chengze showed a gentle expression: "Don't worry, Yan Hang is upright and won't blame me."

Sheng Yuan was a little speechless.

His godfather had never met Yan Hang, so why did he trust Yan Hang so much?

No matter how good Yan Hang is, if the people around Yan Hang want him to kill Xie Chengze, can Yan Hang still protect Xie Chengze?

What's more, Xie Chengze killed the emperor!

Which emperor can keep the person who killed the emperor alive?

Xie Chengze said at this time: "Okay, Sheng Yuan, let's talk about something else, such as finding a reason to kill tomorrow."

Sheng Yuan: "…"

The situation in the capital was unknown to the people outside, and at this time, Lu Yanzhou brought a group of people and was cooking rice.

They had just finished a day of rushing marches, and now it was time to take a break.

In Lu Yanzhou's team, there was a difference between what ordinary soldiers and generals ate, but not much.

Anyway, like Dayan, the soldiers eat bran and swallow vegetables, but the children of the noble family who lead the soldiers are servants, not only the delicacies of mountains and seas, but also the scene of leisurely reciting poetry and painting, which does not exist here.

In fact, Dayan once sent troops to exterminate him, the rebel, but the troops came very slowly, and he even had to wait for the other party for two days.

Waiting for someone to finally come... The generals who were born in aristocratic families drove ordinary soldiers as cannon fodder, and the battles mainly depended on the combat methods of servants carefully trained by themselves, which also opened Lu Yanzhou's eyes.

At that time, he killed the general and all his servants. As for those ordinary soldiers... Now they are soldiers under his hands. They are eating multi-grain noodles and salted fish.

Lu Yanzhou has obtained a lot of resources from the sea over the years.

Sunning salt, fishing, and even raising ducks by the sea, he did not fall.

Therefore, when the army is on the march to fight, the soldiers under his command can guarantee a piece of salted fish every day, and from time to time there are salted duck eggs to eat.

Ordinary soldiers in the army basically eat salted fish with dry food, as well as freshly boiled seaweed soup and seaweed soup. According to different levels, generals can get some other types of food, such as bacon, jerky, noodles. such as.

Lu Yanzhou was sitting next to a pot of porridge eating jerky.

The staple food of the generals is also multigrain flour cakes, but there is more hot porridge to drink, as well as jerky and sauerkraut fried in oil.

Everyone sat on the ground and ate.

Wang Tingyun and Wang Pinghou didn't want to sit, but they were so tired that they sat down anyway.

They didn't want to eat such a big pot of rice at first, but they were so hungry that they still ate it.

The gentle, gentle, beards and even the carefully trimmed Wang's father and son are now fighting with the jerky with their teeth grinning.

They didn't need to come, but Wang Tingyun wanted to make a contribution, so he said he knew the situation in the capital better and wanted to follow.

Lu Yanzhou thought that he would have to deal with the aristocratic family in the future, and Wang Tingyun was very knowledgeable, so he brought people along.

Along the way, the father and son Wang, who had no previous military experience, suffered a lot.

But after suffering, after seeing the situation of the army led by Yan Hang, they became more and more convinced that Yan Hang could win.

His soldiers are strong and well-equipped, and he is forbidden to trust their superiors...

The elite private soldiers that the aristocratic family spent on raising money, that's all! But how can the number of private soldiers they raise compare to the number of troops under Lu Yanzhou?

Wang Tingyun swallowed a mouthful of jerky with difficulty and asked, "General Yan, do you have a way to make salt?"

Soldiers on the march need to eat a lot of salt to have strength.

But salt is expensive, and Dayan's army will not give ordinary soldiers enough salt anyway.

Lu Yanzhou's army was different, his soldiers all had salted fish to eat.

After Wang Tingyun tasted the salted fish, he also determined that the salt used to marinate the salted fish should be of the highest quality.

Lu Yanzhou didn't hide it either: "Yes, I have a way to make salt!"

"In the past two years, there has been plenty of salt in the market..."

"I sold it." Lu Yanzhou said.

"If General Yan didn't sell salt, the combat effectiveness of Sun Chongshao's army would be greatly reduced." Wang Tingyun said. Generally, in troubled times, the price of salt will skyrocket, but in recent years, there is a lot of salt on the market, and the price of salt is also cheap.

He didn't know what was going on before, but now he knows that it was Yan Hang who did it.

Lu Yanzhou said: "The common people also eat salt. If I don't sell it, the common people's life will be sad."

In this era, no one has dried salt, and the output of salt is not high. In addition, the transportation is inconvenient, and the price is not cheap.

But after Lu Yanzhou started drying the salt... he really didn't lack salt in his hands.

He also has an army to transport salt, which can be transported to various places.

"General Yan is great!" Wang Tingyun said.

Lu Yanzhou smiled, took another mouthful of porridge, and had someone fill it with a spoonful of sauerkraut to give to some soldiers.

Soldiers who have received such honors naturally have made contributions in previous battles.

Seeing Lu Yanzhou like this, Wang Tingyun couldn't help but ask: "General Yan, why are you in such a hurry to stop Sun Chongshao? The current situation in the capital is probably not very good, Xie Chengze is at the end of the road, maybe he will do something... You let Sun Chong Shao goes to the capital first, but he can take advantage of the fisherman instead."

Others may think that going to the capital first will not only have a better reputation, but also gain access to many resources in the capital and the support of those aristocratic families.

But Wang Tingyun knew very well that his nephew was not simple.

Sun Chongshao first surrounded the capital, and he was about to confront Xie Chengze. At that time, Sun Chongshao would not only not be able to take advantage of it, but he might also suffer heavy losses.

Even Sun Chongshao may not be able to attack the capital at all!

It is the most cost-effective for Lu Yanzhou and others to play again after the strength of both sides has been depleted.

Wang Tingyun thought so, and the rest of Lu Yanzhou's subordinates actually thought so, so they all asked questions.

Lu Yanzhou said: "I can't let Sun Chongshao go to the capital first, the capital is mine!"

It is indeed more orthodox to take the lead in capturing the capital. Wang Tingyun was about to say a few words when he heard Lu Yanzhou say again: "The one from my family is still in the capital."

Everyone was shocked.

It is well known that Yan Hang has a very precious wife.

It's just that that person only exists in the mouth of Yan Hang and the old officials around Yan Hang. Others have never seen her and don't even know who she is.

Everyone thought that Yan Hang was afraid that someone would hurt her in the chaotic world, so she hid her tightly. She should be hiding in a place isolated from the world, isn't it?

This person is actually... in the capital?

"I'm in a hurry to go to the capital, just to save him," Lu Yanzhou looked at his subordinates, "Apart from the Wang family, you've been with me for a long time. Do you know that someone has always given me something? It's all from him. Yes! You have all eaten the food he sent, and you all wear the weapons and armors he sent. All the new things I have in my hands are also related to him. Without him, I would not be where I am now. Neither of you!"

Everyone's expressions became serious.

Lu Yanzhou said again: "So I put my words here, he is more important than me! When you go to the capital, it doesn't matter if you don't respect me, if you don't respect him, I will fight with you!"

Lu Yanzhou has always given Xie Chengze the credit for giving things to his "madam" who never appeared, and he also told people that his family did some of the things he asked people to do.

Therefore, although his subordinates have never seen the mistress, they still respect the legendary mistress.

"General, we must respect Madam."

"That winter, if it wasn't for the madam's people to bring food, my family might starve to death! I will do whatever the madam asks me to do!"

"We will definitely save the lady!"

…

For a time, the crowd was furious, and they all shouted to go to the capital to save people.

This fighting spirit is quite good, that is... Xie Chengze should not need their help.

Lu Yanzhou stopped Sun Chongshao because he was afraid that Sun Chongshao would hurt Lu Yanzhou.

"I don't know what the capital looks like now. Will something happen to Madam?"

"General, have you arranged enough manpower around Madam?"

"Xie Chengze is ruthless..."

"Stop!" Lu Yanzhou frowned, "As I said, Xie Chengze has always been doing things for the people, much better than those aristocratic families! Don't speak ill of him!"

Everyone: "..." Lu Yanzhou often analyzes Xie Chengze's practice for them recently. After analyzing and analyzing, it becomes that Xie Chengze does so many things for the sake of the people.

So everyone actually has a good impression of Xie Chengze. Before Xie Chengze killed the emperor, they still felt very happy!

When they spoke ill of Xie Chengze this time, they were also worried about their wife... As a result, their generals didn't let anyone speak ill of Xie Chengze at this time?

Lu Yanzhou said again: "Xie Chengze is measured. Although he has blocked the capital, he will definitely not do anything to innocent people. He will only kill those royal families who have done many evils... I believe him!"

All the generals under Lu Yanzhou trusted Lu Yanzhou, and after hearing what Lu Yanzhou said, they believed it.

After all, during Lu Yanzhou's repeated brainwashing, they had begun to think that Xie Chengze was a hero who endured humiliation and fought against the nobles for the sake of the common people.

Only the Wang family was a little embarrassed.

In Yan Hang's heart, the nobility seems to be inferior to Xie Chengze, a eunuch...

This person's ideas are really different and deviant!
