Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

"How are the preparations here?"

Since the fall of Xinzheng, Zhuyeqing and Heiyu had given some medicine in advance to intoxicate the guests at the wedding banquet. Afterwards, he took away the tokens from them and gave them to Wang Jian.

There is basically nothing to do.

The 'hush money' will not be paid in a short time, so after thinking about it, Zhu Yeqing and Heiyu finally decided to return to Nanyang first to help Xiong Da and Xiong Er resolve their matters.

That night, after 'Mo Ying' passed the news of the breach of the Xinzheng City Gate to Zhu Yeqing, the melee in the backyard of General Ji Wuye's Mansion automatically stopped.

With Bai Yifei's strength, in the absence of Bai Feng and Hei Yu, if he wanted to run away, almost no one could stop him.

Zhu Yeqing doesn’t want to waste her efforts.

However, Tianze and his party did not hesitate to pursue Bai Yifei after he escaped. Obviously, the blood feud of the country's subjugation is not so easy to resolve.

Halfway through the fight between Ganie and Black and White Xuanjian, they had disappeared, and there is still no news.

"That's almost it."

Xiong Da stretched out his hand to pour a cup of tea for Zhuye Qing and Heiyu each, and said.

Xiong Da's original purpose of coming to Nanyang was mainly to relocate the victims and increase the population of Hanzhong.

But later, some local landowners and nobles in Nanyang wanted to take advantage of the war to make a fortune, and Xiong Da's actions happened to hinder their actions, resulting in the relocation of the victims never going smoothly.

Originally considering the overall situation, Xiong Da did not act rashly.

It wasn't until Mo Jun sent word that he took the opportunity to get some money in Nanyang that Xiong Da started taking action.

"What to do next?"

"We just need to wait. During this time, I have sent people to check their lair. We can take action directly in the evening."

The biggest difference between the actions of Lord Mo and Ying Zheng is that as a king, Ying Zheng often needs to worry about the face of Qin and the diplomatic relations between big countries, so some things should not be done too obviously. Even if he acts secretly, he still needs to Wear a mask.

But Mr. Mo doesn't need this.

Regardless of the cause of the matter, from the moment these landlords and nobles in Nanyang dared to assassinate Xiong Da, it was equivalent to declaring war on Lord Mo, so it was only natural that Lord Mo would retaliate.

Of course.

If word of such 'small-minded' revenge spreads, it will also have a certain impact on Mr. Mo's reputation.

Even under the promotion of some thoughtful people, Mr. Mo's name as a "sage" may be slandered.

But Mo Jun never cared about this.

Rather.

This would play into Mr. Mo's wish.

Only the dead can bear the reputation of a "saint". If a living person bears such a reputation, there is a high probability that his lifespan will be shortened from the physical level.

At night.

In a remote courtyard somewhere outside Nanyang City.

A figure lined with rich clothes and wearing a hooded coat quietly entered. At this time, seven people had gathered in the courtyard. The candlelight in the courtyard lobby was not very bright, but there was no shortage of wine and food. It looked like a small banquet was being held.

"You are late."

"Hmph! I don't live outside the city like you. Now that the Qin army is carrying out military preparations in Nanyang, it would be great if I can find an opportunity to come out."

The visitor snorted coldly, walked into the lobby, reached out and took off the hood on his head, revealing an old face with bright eyes.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, we don't have much time, let's get straight to the point!"

When the hooded old man took his seat, he heard a white-haired old man in the front saying directly: "How is the situation over there recently?"

"Looking at the situation, they seem to be planning to leave." someone replied.

"Leave? Huh~~ What a bunch of rat shit. If it weren't for them, why would we have to go through so much trouble now?"

The 'they' in these people's mouths naturally refer to the [Xiong Chumo Chamber of Commerce] led by Xiong Da and Xiong Er.

For ordinary people, war is equivalent to disaster.

But for these local clans that have been rooted in Nanyang for hundreds of years, the more chaotic the situation, the more opportunities there are.

Land annexation, secret plunder, human trafficking, massacre of lives...

Death is a very common thing during the war. As long as they seize the opportunity, whether thousands or tens of thousands of people died in Nanyang during this period, they can blame all the blame on Qin and South Korea who started the war.

Originally, after the fall of Nanyang, these people had already prepared to send people to muddy the water, and then took advantage of the flood of disaster victims and the boiling of public resentment to fish in troubled waters and make a lot of war fortune.

But I didn't expect it.

Before the flood of victims spread, a caravan from Qin State actually began to provide free disaster relief, and even packed up all 30,000 victims of Nanyang and took them away.

As a result, Nanyang Mingming was caught in the flames of war just now, but after the war ended, not only did the entire Nanyang not become chaotic, but the order was even much clearer than before.

After all, for Nanyang, the loss of 30,000 disaster victims has relieved a huge burden. What's more, one of the people who helped the Qin army manage order in Nanyang this time was the original governor of Nanyang.

Only in troubled waters can you fish.

If he had taken action when the water was clear, it would have been impossible for Wang Jian to send troops stationed in Nanyang.

Therefore, regardless of the facts, the [Xiong Chumo Chamber of Commerce] really cut off the wealth of these landowners and nobles first.

Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.

If these people want to continue to fish in troubled waters, they must let Nanyang become chaotic again. And if we want to cause chaos in Nanyang, the first thing that needs to be solved is the disaster relief [Xiong Chumo Chamber of Commerce].

That's why they sent people to assassinate Xiong Da many times before.

"We can't let them leave like this." Someone said again.

"Yes. At least the more than 30,000 victims must stay."

It is estimated that even these Nanyang nobles have never thought that one day they would actually speak in person and want to keep these disaster victims who have always been regarded as 'untouchables' and 'trash' by them in the past.

In the past, both them and Nanyang's upper-level officials had always regarded these disaster victims as a burden.

After hearing these words, some of the eight people couldn't help but worry: "But what are we going to do? I have sent people to investigate before. This caravan is not simple. If the intelligence is correct, it is very possible that they are behind it." It’s Lord Shengping from the Qin State. That person is not easy to mess with. If we continue, maybe we will completely offend him."

"Yes! Now Nanyang has belonged to South Korea. Not long ago, I even heard that even Xinzheng has fallen. If this is the case, this territory will belong to the Qin State in the future. The one who rashly offends the Qin State at this time I’m afraid it’s not a wise move!”
