Young Master Fu Yao showed another side of him in Jiujiang County.
Observe every detail clearly and act resolutely.
Half an hour after receiving the order, Fu Yao set off.
Fu Yao did a lot of things in Jiujiang County. These things seemed to be complicated, but in fact they were very orderly.
Moreover, Fu Yao did not take care of everything, but deliberately trained the officials of Jiujiang County to familiarize them with the new ways of merchants.
And these officials also learned quickly.
Now that Fu Yao was leaving, it only took him half an hour to make it clear. This speed is not unpleasant, it is simply breathtaking.
When Fu Yao left, the people of Jiujiang County lined the streets to welcome him, and many people shed tears.
Fu Yao didn't stay here long, but he took action to eliminate the Sankunshan thieves who had been causing trouble for one side.
And his businessman's way, although it was only practiced for a short period of time, has been very effective. The people here have seen hope.
Fu Yao bowed his hands to the people of Jiujiang County, then beat his horse and walked away.
Following Fu Yao were three thousand well-equipped and powerful Qin soldiers.
And Qin Bing is behind. It's two cars.
Sitting in the prison car was Li Dao. Sitting in the carriage was the Jiujiang County Sheriff.
However, no matter whether they were in a prison car or a carriage, these two people were uneasy and had little hope for their future.
Li Dao looked at the dust on the roadside in the rickety prison car. I couldn't help but start thinking about life.
"Why did I end up in this situation? Is it because of greed?" Li Dao sighed: "Coveting for fame and wealth, coveting the merit of following the dragon."
"It's a pity that I was too ambitious and ended up like this. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death when I get to Xianyang City, right?"
"Being an enemy is no different from rebelling. And it's not simply being an enemy. It's actually to deal with Master Fu Yao."
"Not only to deal with Young Master Fu Yao, but also to deliberately influence the selection of the crown prince. No matter how you look at it, it is a dead end."
"But how will I die? What will be my method of death? Beheading? Beheading? Or five punishments?"
"Perhaps beheading? A punishment like being cut in half is not something a little person like me can experience. But...who knows? What I committed is too big after all."
Li Dao becomes more and more desperate about his future.
If he arrived in Xianyang City and was sentenced to be cut in half, it would be extremely painful.
It is said that those who endure the punishment of being cut in half will be cut in half, but they will not die immediately. It would take a long time to struggle in a pool of blood before dying.
It's miserable, it's really miserable.
Li Dao felt that since death was certain, he might as well commit suicide.
But we haven’t reached Xianyang City yet, why not live one more day? After all, the scenery in this world can only be seen once and less.
Therefore, Li Dao managed to survive day after day.
The Jiujiang County Sheriff was sitting in the carriage, also sighing.
"How could I, a good county guard, make such a big mistake? Where did I go wrong?"
The county guard thought a lot, and in the end he could only think that the customs of the Chu region had influenced him.
I remember that when he first came to Chu Di, the Jiujiang County Sheriff was also a high-spirited person. But as time went by, he saw too many incredible things.
When people here are sick, instead of seeing a doctor, they will find a witch, mutter something on the patient's head, and then drink a bowl of water. The disease is surprisingly cured.
These things made the county governor suspect that there might really be witchcraft in the world.
Another time, the priest Chiyou was there.
Some Qin soldiers thought that Chi You's claims were all false. These Chu people were really ridiculous.
So they wrote a few words on Chiyou's temple at night: How can a defeated general be brave? The obscene temples and obscene sacrifices must be abolished.
After writing these words, these Qin soldiers were very proud, and they probably felt that they were quite talented in literature.
Unexpectedly, they developed a high fever that night.
The fever persisted for more than ten days, and in the end three people died and three went crazy. Although the remaining people recovered, they were all skinny and it was obvious that their bodies had been greatly damaged.
These two incidents had a great impact on the county governor.
In addition, if you want to govern the Chu land well, you can't do it without respecting the customs of the Chu people. Therefore, the county guard began to actively participate in all the gods and ghosts here.
At first, he was just showing off, but after doing this kind of thing so often, he couldn't help but believe it.
With these things as the basis, this time the various weird actions of the thieves on Sankun Mountain did not make the county guard suspicious.
After all... wizards can cure people's illnesses. Why couldn't Chi You bless people to win the battle?
After all... Chi You could make soldiers suffer from high fevers, so why couldn't he make thieves fight bravely?
Moreover, the imperial army was actually defeated by a group of thieves. Apart from using Chi You as an explanation, the county guard could not think of any other possibility.
Since entering this strange circle, the county guard has never left again.
Until...until Mr. Fu Yao came.
The young master only used a hundred men to defeat the thieves on Sankun Mountain.
At first, the county guard thought that the young master was blessed by the power of an immortal.
But Fu Yao continued to clarify his attitude, and the county guard gradually realized that he was deceived, that he had been deceived, and that he had made a complete fool.
"Well, now that things have happened, I can't blame anyone else. Maybe my official career has come to an end." The county guard sighed.
He was not worried that he would be beheaded. After all, unlike Li Dao, he has not committed any crime.
However... the county governor also knew that it might not be that simple to become an official in the future.
Even if he doesn't become white, it's impossible to become a high official like a county magistrate.
That's all, that's all, it doesn't matter if you don't become an official, just go home and be a rich man.
The Sheriff could only comfort himself in this way.
Fu Yao didn't walk very fast. After all, he wasn't going to kill a thief. There was no need to travel thousands of miles to attack.
That night, they lived in the wilderness.
After Li Dao ate his prison food, he fell asleep in the prison car.
Sometimes, when death is approaching, people always have a sixth sense. Li Dao feels like this now.
Lately, strange thoughts have been pouring out of his mind every day.
Did he sometimes feel like he was going to be killed right away?
Perhaps the emperor hated himself so much that he was not allowed to enter Xianyang City and would be executed on the spot.
Sometimes, he wonders if he will be forgiven?
Maybe he will establish a crown prince, and his majesty will grant amnesty to the world and change his death sentence to a living crime.
These thoughts are actually Li Dao's random thoughts rather than his sixth sense.
However, the feeling tonight was extra strong and real.
Li Dao had a feeling that this time it might be true.
He always felt frightened and even felt in a trance while eating.
Now the soldiers around are asleep. Let alone sleeping, Li Dao couldn't even squat down. His legs were constantly weak and his heart was pounding. He always felt that a knife would come out from somewhere and hit him hard. Come on.
He thought for a long time, trying to figure out what he was worried about.
But Li Dao thought about it for a long time and felt that His Majesty is not so impatient, right?
At this moment, a sudden sound broke through the air.
Li Dao was on the battlefield, so of course he knew what the sound was about.
Cold arrow!
Someone is shooting cold arrows!
Cold sweat broke out on Li Dao's head.
He lowered his head suddenly, and then an arrow shot through his bun and was nailed to the prison cart.
Then there was another burst of sound.
The second arrow arrived.
Li Dao struggled to escape, and in his panic, his scalp stung.
His bun was torn apart and he looked disheveled.
But by this time it was already too late, the arrow had arrived.
Li Dao was hit by an arrow in the shoulder and screamed in pain.
However, the opponent's third arrow did not come out.
Because many torches appeared around, many Qin soldiers appeared, and even many Qin soldiers appeared in the distance, surrounding all nearby places.
Later, Li Dao discovered that Fu Yao's army had not slept at all. They had been lying in ambush nearby.
Li Dao... was confused.
He suddenly felt that he might be the bait and the other party was a fish caught by Fu Yao.
Half an hour later, the person who secretly fired the arrow was caught.
He was pushed around and brought to Li Dao.
Fu Yao said to Li Dao with a smile on his face: "Li Dao, do you know him?"
Li Dao was shocked when he saw this person: "Isn't this... isn't this Li Jia? This is the housekeeper of cousin Li Jian's mansion."
Li Dao asked in surprise: "You...why did you shoot me with a cold arrow?"
Li Jia lowered his head and said nothing.
Fu Yao smiled slightly and said, "Don't you still know the reason for this? It's easy to figure it out. You will understand it naturally if you use your brain."
Li Dao thought for a long time, and then said with some disbelief: "Is...brother sent you here?"
Li Jia suddenly shouted and hit a rock.
But he failed and someone stopped him.
The rest is a matter of course.
Li Dao quickly deduced other things.
Master Fu Yao's marching speed was not very fast. It could even be said that he was deliberately very slow.
In this way, the news that he was captured by the young master will quickly spread to Xianyang City.
And people in Xianyang City will definitely discuss it after getting the news.
Others just looked on. But my cousin Li Jian will probably be very nervous, right?
After all, if Li Dao is caught, it is very likely that Li Jian will be exposed.
In that case, Li Jian will kill people to silence him in order to protect himself.
Li Dao couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought of this.
He sat in the prison car, tears streaming down his face: "I can't believe it, I can't believe it. My brother would treat me like this."
Fu Yao patted Li Dao's shoulder and said with great sympathy: "My condolences."
Later, two photographers came and took a group photo of Li Dao and Li Jia.
Li Dao smiled bitterly and asked Fu Yao: "Master Fu Yao, do you want to send this photo to Daqin Daily for publication?"
Li Dao had his reasons for thinking so.
After all, Fu Yao is the person behind Daqin Daily, and such explosive news can greatly increase the sales of Daqin Daily.
But Fu Yao shook his head and said to Li Dao: "If this news is released, some people will inevitably make speculations."
"My brother's face will not look good by then. Therefore, I plan to give this photo to Li Jian alone."
"Those who are guilty should just plead guilty and don't involve irrelevant people."
Li Dao sat in the prison car with a complicated expression. Nothing was said.
By the next morning, the photos had been developed.
Fu Yao put the photo in an envelope, handed it to a pawn, and ordered him to ride a fast horse and rush to Xianyang city as soon as possible.
The pawn agreed and ran away.
As for Fu Yao, he still staggered and went to Xianyang City. It's just that Li Dao's treatment has been improved a lot.
He no longer sat in the prison carriage, but sat in the carriage like the county guard.
Along the way, Li Dao thought a lot.
Although he got on the carriage, death was still inevitable.
Moreover, Li Jian was going to be killed by himself.
Absolutely no, no, Li Jian sent someone to kill him in order to save himself.
This made Li Dao feel betrayed.
There is nothing better than this for people to betray their relatives and leave their relatives.
As a result, Li Dao became more and more frustrated. He began to express thoughts of committing suicide from time to time.
This is different from wanting to commit suicide before.
Li Dao wanted to commit suicide before because he was afraid of being sentenced to death.
But now Li Dao wants to commit suicide, he really wants to commit suicide.
The Jiujiang County Sheriff obviously felt Li Dao's psychological changes.
He reported the incident to Fu Yao. Fu Yao immediately ordered someone to find a suicide prevention manual and intervene.
It's a pity that Li Dao can't stand it anymore.
When the carriage passed a bridge, Li Dao suddenly jumped out of the carriage and jumped off the bridge with his head upside down.
The water under the bridge is not deep, and there are jagged rocks in the river.
Li Dao's head hit the bottom of the river, and soon the water was dyed red.
…………
In Xianyang City, Li Jian has not slept for three days.
He realized he had done something stupid.
If Li Dao is not moved and Li Dao comes back to accuse him, he can plead ignorance.
But he actually sent out assassins to kill people and silence them. Now he couldn't get rid of the relationship at all.
Li Jian was running around in the room, and in the end he looked like a madman.
what to do? what to do? what to do?
Young Master Fu Yao is about to return to Xianyang City. After coming back, the first thing I'm afraid is to arrest myself.
At that time, for the serious crime of treason, I'm afraid everyone will be executed, right?
It is said that the banished immortal introduced a kind of mutual aid fund for courtiers. I don’t know if it’s too late to buy it now.
But...if the whole family is wiped out, will this money still be useful?
The more Li Jian thought about it, the more desperate he became. Finally... he made up his mind and walked out of the city with a few close family members.
After arriving outside the city, Li Jian said to them: "You go back, I will walk by myself."
The family member said with some worry: "Master, you seem to be unwell recently, I don't think so..."
Li Jian shook his head, mounted his horse and left.
He planned to leave Xianyang City far away and look for a remote place, but met a group of thieves.
Then he fought and died for his country.
In that case, maybe at least the family can be saved.
