Zhao Jun snorted coldly, looked angry, and said coldly:
"In the final analysis, you are still a waste, allowing the enemy to find an opportunity, and only then can he defeat you step by step!"
"The lower officials are incompetent!"
There was an unconcealable bitterness in Li Yi's voice, as well as a subtle sense of relief.
"On the third day after New Year's Eve, four families will be trading with the Dongle tribe in the north of Yunzhou by the Kar Lake. You will take people to capture these four families on the spot. Is there any problem?"
After snorting coldly, Zhao Jun suddenly said this.
"ah?"
Li Yi looked up at Zhao Jun with a surprised look on his face. He was not only surprised how Prince Yun knew the time and place of the four transactions, but also shocked that the other party would let him go to arrest him. Isn't this a joke?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, those four families support hundreds of fugitive servants, and since they are trading with the Dongle tribe, the Dongle tribe's soldiers must also be present. It is impossible for Xiaguan to have more than a dozen yamen servants. Catch these four families on the spot!"
Li Yi smiled bitterly and expressed his difficulty. What he did not say was that even a dozen of the yamen servants might not be willing to go with him to arrest him.
"Hmph! Of course I won't let you arrest me alone. You don't have the ability. If you had the ability, you wouldn't be left out by those four families to become what you are now."
Zhao Jun's words were merciless and very unpleasant. After hearing this, Li Yi could only hang his head in embarrassment and remain speechless, unable to refute.
"On the day of the arrest, there will be 1,000 royal guards accompanying you. With these 1,000 royal guards, it is enough for you to capture all the people from the four families and the Dongle tribe who came to trade."
After hearing Zhao Jun's arrangement, Li Yi was not surprised but overjoyed. After these days of observation, he knew that these palace guards were not just fancy honor guards. They were all elite cavalry with superb riding skills!
Coupled with the sophisticated equipment of the guards, against the Tatars from the outer steppe who are only equipped with bone arrows, they can definitely beat five!
As far as he knew, the Dongle tribe only brought nearly a hundred people with them every time they sent people to trade. With these thousand palace guards, he would be safe!
Li Yi immediately agreed without hesitation:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. With Your Majesty's support, I will definitely be able to kill all the people from those four families and the connectors of the Dongle tribe, and give the people of Yunzhou County a peaceful future!"
"Hmph, I hope so."
…
Time flies, like a white horse passing by, fleeting.
The Lantern Festival is coming soon.
Due to the special nature of Yunzhou City, although the Lantern Festival is considered a big festival, compared to the Spring Festival, it is no longer so grand.
Each family just had a meal of dumplings and passed away without causing any disturbance.
This makes Zhao Jun a little regretful. He has been looking forward to what the Yunzhou City's Yuanxi Festival will be like?
But what I didn't expect was that the people in Yunzhou City didn't seem to be celebrating New Year's Eve.
Later, when I got settled, I realized that Yunzhou County was not wealthy, and the lives of the people in the city were not easy, except for the Spring Festival. In order to save money, people don't celebrate other festivals very much.
It’s already not easy to survive.
When he heard that it was no longer easy to live, Zhao Jun fell silent.
But he didn't say much, and he didn't act like the protagonists in those novels. As soon as he learned that the people were not living well, he immediately swore to the sky that I, xxx, would definitely make the people live a good life and make such a bloody plot.
For Zhao Jun, it is useless no matter how good your words are. Even if you say nothing, the people will not get any benefit. Only by doing practical things and making the people change can it be true.
It's not the time yet, but soon...soon...
The day after the Lunar New Year's Eve, news came from Cheng Cheng that the Yunzhou garrison was ready for King Yun's inspection, and the inspection time was set for the third day after the Yuan's Eve.
That's right, it was the third day after New Year's Eve. On this day, the four major families happened to be trading with the Tatars in Dongle.
However this is not a coincidence.
Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was to reduce trouble. Since Zhao Jun wanted to review the Yunzhou garrison, it would be better to lure him away on this day, which would be safer.
Zhao Jun naturally discovered their little thoughts early.
Looking at the note in his hand, Zhao Jun sneered, threw the note aside, and suddenly turned to look behind him and asked:
"Has the true situation of the Yunzhou Army been found out?"
"Go back to your lord, everything has been recorded in a book."
In the darkness behind him, a man in black, covered with black gauze, walked out of the darkness and respectfully handed a folded book to Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun reached out and took it, opened it and looked at it.
Looking at the records in the booklet one by one, Zhao Jun's eyes kept flashing with cold light, and he snorted coldly:
"I knew that the situation of the Yunzhou Army might not be very good, but I didn't expect it to be so bad. Fortunately, there has been no war in Yunzhou in the past two years. Otherwise, I would like to see how Cheng Cheng should deal with those Tatars. !”
Slapping the booklet on the table, Zhao Jun closed his eyes and thought for a while before giving the order: "Send someone to sneak in and follow my king's signal in three days!"
"promise!"
The man in black gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Zhao Jun looked at the booklet on the table, the killing intent in his eyes almost uncontrollable.
He thought for a moment and wanted to say hello to the door, but stopped after thinking about it.
He wanted to write a report to the court so that he could justifiably kill Cheng Cheng, but if word spread at this time, although Cheng Cheng would die, the court would also send another person to take over the position of defense envoy.
Although his brothers have already sent him to this borderland, they will never mind causing themselves some discomfort. The defense envoy who comes then may be one of their people, so he will be passive.
It's better not to talk about it. As for how to deal with it when the time comes, there is an easy way.
When he was discovered, the world was not very peaceful. Even if he was unlucky enough to be on defense, it wouldn't be strange to be accidentally killed by a desperado while walking on the road, right?
The matter was solved, Zhao Jun had a clear idea, and he was in a good mood. He immediately greeted outside the study:
"Wang Banban, I am hungry. Let the kitchen cook and tell them that I want to eat fish today!"
Outside the study, Wang Huaien listened with a look of astonishment.
Eat fish? What fish to eat? My lord, this is the grassland, not Bianjing. Where did the fish come from?
But now that the prince's orders have been issued, he has to solve the problem, so he can only walk to the kitchen with a wry smile.
First, go and ask the kitchen to prepare some food to stabilize the prince, and then go out and find out where you can buy fish in the city.
Hey, isn’t this difficult for me, Lao Wang?
Why do you suddenly want to eat fish?
…
