Xiao Wu was holding a sharp knife and trembling.
"Sun Hu" sat aside and scolded him constantly.
"What are you afraid of?! You don't even have the guts to bleed dead objects?!"
"Bleed me and peel off its skin! Otherwise, I will bleed you!!"
"Sun Zhang" brought out a bowl from the back room. Sun Hu picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
He looked at Mrs. Sun Zhang and said displeasedly: "This guy is even more incompetent than Mr. Liu!"
Sun Zhang sighed, "Xiao Wu is still young, forget it."
"What the hell?! It has to be done!!"
Sun Hu looked at Xiao Wu angrily, "Do it!!!"
Mrs. Sun Zhang lowered her head and did not try to persuade her again.
Sun Hu stared at Xiao Wu, ate another bowl of water, and asked, "Qing, is it safe for us to live here?"
Mrs. Sun Zhang raised her head and said, "Wei Xiaokuan would not have thought that we would still dare to stay in Cheng'an. Cheng'an has the fewest Zhou people at the moment. It is safe to stay here."
"What about Taozi? The Zhou people will definitely continue to attack him!"
"With Taozi's character, he is destined to be unable to hide in the mountains and live a secluded life. It would not be good to force him to stay."
"Originally, we were in the light and the enemy was in the dark."
"At this moment, the peach is pushed to a brighter place, and the husband only needs to wait, waiting for those moths in the dark to fight the fire."
Sun Hu was still a little irritable, "If I had known earlier, I would have let him enter the warrior camp. He would have been a casual official in the county, which would have brought great embarrassment to me."
"My husband has offended too many people, and the situation is extremely dangerous. It would be inappropriate for him to follow me."
Sun Hu said no more, and both of them fell silent.
Xiao Wu knelt down next to the deer, crying, and slit the prey's throat. The blood spurted out, almost turning Xiao Wu red.
Xiao Wu cried even harder.
County government office, Nanyuan.
After everyone returned to the county government office, almost all of them were extremely tired and sat down to rest.
The county government provided two meals, but the food was even worse than that of the law school. The wheat cakes were very hard and had been stored for unknown days. Occasionally there were some grains, but they all gave off an unpleasant smell.
There is no difference in what regular officials and alternate officials eat.
Several casual officials returned here, looked at each other for a few times, and then left quietly.
They kept walking along the road leading to the middle courtyard, and were stopped by soldiers several times along the way. Fortunately, they were able to prove their identities and were able to continue moving forward.
They walked all the way to a separate house, looked at each other a few times, made up their minds, and walked in.
This courtyard belongs to Duke Cao. He is currently in his study, engrossed in writing something.
When these four people appeared in front of him, Cao Gong raised his head and laughed.
"Okay, okay, this official knows how to handle things, come here, everyone!"
Before the four of them could speak, they were captured by Cao Gong. Cao Gong gave them errands, but they did not complain and started doing them seriously.
Mr. Cao took a rare break from his work, took a sip of hot tea, rubbed his eyes, and closed his eyes to rest.
The four people stayed up until very late, finishing their work and handing them over to Duke Cao one by one.
Looking at these, Duke Cao also had a kind smile on his face.
"Very good, not bad, a good official."
The leader mustered up his courage and said, "Mr. Cao! We are here to complain!"
At this moment, the smile on Cao Gong's face suddenly solidified.
"What to sue for?"
"The new official leader is tyrannical, instructing the alternate officials to beat the casual officials, commit murder and evil, and arbitrarily promotes alternate officials and his own cronies. His cronies can rest in the courtyard, but those of us who are unwilling to obey are sent out to do things."
"We suspect that he also sent people to murder the first two officials."
"That man was strong, but he lost two people as soon as he arrived. How could such a coincidence happen?"
The remaining people nodded and began to talk about their doubts and uneasiness.
Duke Cao narrowed his eyes, "You mean the Sanliyuan is not managed well and there are many chaos?"
The leader panicked, "Mr. Cao, it's not that you didn't manage well, it's the problem of the officials."
"Okay, I understand, I will send someone to solve it."
Several people stood up quickly, thanked him again, and expressed their gratitude to Mr. Cao.
"Thank you, Mr. Cao! Thank you, Mr. Cao!"
They walked on the road, their faces full of joy.
"This bitch is lucky enough to be the leader, so he treats us like this. We must make him look good this time!"
"Oh, there is also the alternate, let's see if Mr. Cao doesn't break his legs!!"
They returned to the courtyard triumphantly, whispered a few words, and went back to their houses.
At this moment, Tian Zili was standing at the door. Looking at the actions of those people, he sneered and returned to Liu Taozi.
These two people are in the same house.
"Brother Taozi, these people must have gone to Duke Cao to report on the officials."
Tian Zili's face was filled with disdain, "These people are seeking their own death."
Liu Taozi looked at him, "The two officials have disappeared. Won't he send someone to check?"
Tian Zili grinned, "Brother Taozi, you don't know this. There are many vacancies in the county now, and promotion depends on political performance."
"Gong Cao is in charge of all the officials. If nothing happens, that is his political performance. Besides, in the eyes of the superiors, we casual officials are nothing more than slaves. If we die, we will recruit another group."
"He will not announce this matter at all, unless his enemies want to harm him, otherwise it will be lost."
Tian Zili cleared his throat and said: "Besides, few people dare to investigate the case right now."
"Brother Taozi may not know that there was a Huns named Qi Lou Nan in the past. He was a smart man and very good at investigating crimes. At that time, he was responsible for investigating a major case, and three minor officials disappeared outside the city."
"He searched and searched, and almost got himself arrested. The county magistrate hung him up and beat him severely for two days and two nights. After the nobleman calmed down, he let him go, and the other casual officials who followed him
, no one survived.”
"Since then, no one dared to investigate the case again, for fear of not being able to find the murderer, and fear of finding the murderer."
"Therefore, if someone reports to the government, he will be killed, and everyone will be safe and nothing will happen. Occasionally, he will kill a few good people to pretend to be thieves and treat them as his own political achievements."
Tian Zili spoke very calmly.
"In this world, traitors are rampant."
A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he fell silent.
Maybe he remembered something.
Liu Taozi spoke again, "You spend too much money on weekdays and don't show off your wealth. Don't do this again, it will bring disaster to you."
Tian Zili looked at him suddenly, "Brother Taozi, I'm not afraid!"
"I have to be promoted to get in touch with that noble person. I want to do big things!!"
Liu Taozi immediately shook her head, "Don't say these words to me."
Tian Zili was silent for a moment, then he raised his head again, "Brother Taozi, I have something to show you."
"Um?"
Tian Zili put his hands into his arms, his voice trembling.
"This thing is a fatal thing, but it is also my most precious thing. Brother Taozi knows what I think after seeing it."
He slowly took out a book from his arms.
This book has no cover, is dirty, torn, and has many stains.
Tian Zili stroked the book gently, and then carefully put the book into Tao Zi's hands.
Taozi lowered her head and looked at the book in her hand.
"What's this?"
"history."
Tian Zili's face turned red, and he said excitedly: "In the fifth year of Taiyan in the previous dynasty, Emperor Taiwu ordered Cui Hao to participate in writing affairs and continue to compile the history of the country. Cui Hao compiled all the affairs of the Xianbei people in detail!!"
"Because of this book, Cui Hao was executed by five clans. Almost all of his close relationships and marriages were executed by clans."
"Brother, you will know after reading this book!"
"The Xianbei people are actually barbarians! They are no different from Qihu! Before them, we were the lords of the Central Plains! They were just like the Weiwei people, but they were just the Weiwei people who succeeded in taking over. Before they joined the invaders,
We also have Jin, Wei, and Han.”
"Those were Han dynasties and they were moral. The emperor would not kill people indiscriminately, the officials would abide by the rules, and the people would be moral. The Xianbei people at that time still had to pay tribute to us!"
"When I first learned about it, I swore in my heart that I would drive these barbarians out and bring peace to the world!"
"These barbarians don't allow us to read the classics because they are afraid that we will know the truth! They are afraid that we will drive them out!"
"As for people like Lu Qubing who can read classics, they are all dogs of the Xianbei people!!"
"They only think about themselves, they don't care about the world at all, and they are not willing to tell the truth to others!!"
"Brother!! Take a look!!"
"Everything I said is true!!!"
Tian Zili's eyes were red, and his whole body was trembling with excitement.
Liu Taozi was silent for a long time, and then looked at the book in his hand again.
"history."
ps: In March of the third year of the Heqing Dynasty, a group of thieves, Tian Zili and dozens of other people, planned to rob the leader of the city. They pretended to be envoys and headed towards the city. They went to the inner room and asked him to lead him on his horse. He used a white blade to lead him to the south hall.
He cried out for disobedience and was killed. He was thirty-two years old, and the government and the public felt sorry for him. ——"Book of Northern Qi: The Story of the Eleven Kings of Gaozu"
