No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top
Chapter 164: Everyone contributes
"Help me?" Tang Yuwei looked at Qin Haoran with hostility.
Qin Haoran smiled and said, "General, this is a turmoil in Tong County. Jiang Zhiang can't deal with Master Duan's family even if he has three heads and six arms. Don't you think so?"
"Were you eavesdropping on my conversation?" Tang Yuwei thought of his conversation with Jiang Chi that night, and couldn't help but feel that Qin Haoran was becoming more and more difficult to understand.
"I didn't!" Qin Haoran put his hands together in surrender. "Your Crown Princess is being hunted down, how can the Duan family be safe? Besides, Jiang Zhiang was recruited into the Beijing Guards by my classmate Yangyang. Gao is dead now, who else can your Highness Xuanyi use if not him!"
Qin Haoran's reasoning is not unreasonable, but in this case, Qin Haoran is too complicated. "Who are you? What do you want to do?" Tang Yuwei let go of his hand.
"I'm just a gang leader! Didn't you know that a long time ago?" Qin Haoran straightened his collar and didn't take Tang Yuwei's question seriously.
But he also understood that since the Crown Princess could guess his identity, Tang Yuwei would know it sooner or later.
Tang Yuwei looked at him with a nonchalant look, and didn't believe a word he said! "What good will it do for you?"
"Of course there is." Qin Haoran raised his head and said bluntly, "Whatever you want to do, I can help you, but there is one thing! I want Jiang Zhiang alive!"
Tang Yuwei looked at Qin Haoran scrutinizingly, rubbing his thumb and index finger, "Jiang Zhiang is an official appointed by the court. Even if he has committed a crime, it is the court that has the final say. It is impossible for me to give it to you!"
"Forget it! The talks are broken!" Qin Haoran turned and left, saying something else, "If you want to go and help, I won't stop you!"
Tang Yuwei turned his head and looked at Shou'an Hall at the moment. It was like hell on earth with blood flowing everywhere!
Thinking that now that he had received the imperial edict, he should have been in the land of Mobei. If he suddenly showed up in Tong County now, he would be exposed.
But he had to watch the government officials and the people fighting there in vain, and the hesitation and reluctance in his heart made him unable to let go!
The adverse impact has already occurred, and further casualties are unnecessary.
Thinking of this, Tang Yuwei tore off a piece of his clothes and covered his face with it, then quickly blended into the crowd and dragged out those officers and soldiers one by one by himself.
Perhaps both sides were tired of fighting, Tang Yuwei quickly pushed aside the soldiers and gamblers.
Only then did he have the chance to pick up the Tibetan withered grass that both sides were fighting over. He immediately smelled it and shook his head, saying, "What a joke!"
Killing two birds with one stone! Tang Yuwei was really fooled by Qin Haoran's tricks.
"The thing you guys are fighting over so hard that you're bleeding is not Tibetan grass at all. It's just Prunella vulgaris that looks similar to Tibetan grass! Eating it will kill you!"
Upon hearing the news, the gamblers who had fought for the grass looked at each other in disbelief, "You're talking nonsense!"
"Don't just say that this is Prunella Vulgaris and you can't just eat it. Even if this is real Tibetan Prunella Vulgaris, you can't buy it or eat it."
Tang Yuwei took the Prunella Vulgaris in his hand and thought of the Tibetan Prunella Vulgaris that the Queen Mother also took.
"This stuff is addictive and can cause hallucinations. It's a veritable chronic poison. You guys have really lost your mind! You don't want to live anymore!"
A gambler was not convinced and shouted, "Those officials are eating, are they all fools?"
"That's right!" Another one, covering his bleeding arm, echoed, "They have been eating for quite a while, and they hang out in brothels all day long. They look very healthy!"
"That's right! Those bastards are no better than us!"
They were talking one after another like they were pouring out their grievances, and what started out as complaints turned into indignant complaints.
"They are always in collusion with each other. The Guxi Wharf was taken over by Magistrate Jiang alone. His aunts and uncles took all the revenue. If it weren't for the high taxes and the loss of livelihood, why would I think of gambling and robbing money!"
A skinny gambler also said, "I am the same. I have to collect five or six taxes when I run a horse caravan on the road. I can't survive."
"There were no such things in the early years. It was only after County Magistrate Jiang came that these high-ranking officials stopped caring about anything else. They just wanted to eat Tibetan grass to prolong their lives all day long!"
Every sentence accuses Jiang Zhiang of various crimes, which are simply too numerous to list.
Even the defeated officers and soldiers had no intention of refutation after hearing this, perhaps they were also deeply harmed by it!
Before arriving in Tong County, Tang Yuwei had learned that banditry was rampant here, and he also knew that there might be disasters.
But no one expected Jiang Zhiang to be so cruel that he actually thought of using Tibetan herb to control the officials in Tong County.
Tong County is now in bad luck, and the heavy taxes and levies have gone into the pocket of the second princess. It is simply a cancer for the Great Pu Kingdom!
If this malignant tumor is not eradicated, the whole country will be in danger!
It seems that Qin Haoran already knew about all this, otherwise he wouldn't have designed such a big show!
Tang Yuwei looked at the broken bodies on the ground and felt guilty for not discovering them earlier.
After a moment of being stunned, a group of women rushed towards me from behind. I only heard that they were wives, daughters, and mothers.
They came to see their gambler sons, their soldier husbands...
"Son! What's the matter with you?"
"Husband! I just heard someone say there was a fight here, so I rushed all the way here..."
"Why are you bleeding so much?"
"Oh my God! I told you to stop gambling but you wouldn't listen! You bastard!" An elderly grandmother raised her crutch and was about to hit her already injured son, but the son reached out to pull the crutch away.
Yangyang appeared behind grandma in time and fortunately prevented her from falling. "Grandma, I'm still fine. There's nothing that can't be solved!"
Yangyang helped the old lady up and met Tang Yuwei's gaze.
She had followed Qin Haoran all the way earlier, and always felt that he was here to get medicine for something else!
But because he was injured, he had to stop and go along the way and was unable to arrive in time.
But when she heard about the situation at Shou'an Hall, she quickly found a few little beggars to take her to find the families of those gamblers, thinking that if she called their family members, perhaps the gamblers would be able to live in peace!
In this way, one called ten, ten called a hundred, even the families of the officers and soldiers were called!
Now, the entire area outside Shou'an Hall has become a refugee camp, a public meeting place, and a trial post for the imperial court!
Thinking of the sufferings those people just talked about, Yangyang was even more indignant.
"Our most important task now is to make those deceived officials wake up. Let's report to the court together and get the cancer of Tong County out of Tong County completely!"
"This..." A faint voice in the crowd said, "We are powerless!"
"Who said you have little influence?" A familiar figure walked out from the crowd. It turned out to be the Crown Princess. When she saw Yangyang disappeared, she followed him out. Only then did she know the true situation of Tong County, the hell on earth.
"Just like what you said just now, tell us all about your sufferings. When everyone adds fuel to the fire, there will be no voice that cannot be heard!"
The Crown Princess made an impassioned speech, which made Yangyang's blood boil. Although her chest still ached slightly, she felt that at least these days were not wasted!
