Bad Hulk Reborn

After Nanyou and Nanwei came back, there was nothing there, but there was an extra prisoner behind them, which showed that the matter was resolved smoothly. "Master." The two came to Xuanji and knelt respectfully. "The subordinates let the master down, those bandits are all dead." "What's going on?" Xuanji frowned slightly when he heard what they said, and his tone became a little more cold.

The two looked at each other, and finally Nanyou spoke first. "Master, when we chased after them, they were about to kill the prisoner. Afterwards, everyone made a move. They were very naughty, and they were ruthless in their moves. The subordinates became red-eyed for a moment."

Having said that, the two of Nanyou lowered their heads guiltily and dared not speak any more.

"Forget it. You take a rest first, where is the prisoner?"

"It's safe. I'm drinking tea with Mr. Ma on the first floor. I'm obviously thirsty. When my subordinates came up just now, I ordered the kitchen to cook another meal, so that they can replenish their energy."

"Yeah. Eat your meal first, and hurry up later." Xuanji looked at the blood stains on the two of them and said coldly.

When they got up, they sat down at the same table as Shitou and had lunch with the leftovers.

After the meal, everyone rested for an hour. During this period, two people from Nan went to the street to inquire about the news. When they came back, their brows were frowning.Xuanji knew without asking, he must have found some bad news?

"What's wrong?" Su Ruomu looked at the two of them and asked curiously. "Didn't it be nice to go out just now? Did you ask for some serious news?"

These two people went out just now, their expressions were normal, but when they came back, they were all turned into ice cubes, and it made them uncomfortable to watch.

Hearing Su Ruomu's words, the two nodded, and Nanwei bowed to each other. "Master, just now we found out that the tax has been increased here."

What?Xuanji's eyes were suddenly cold, and he stared at the two menacingly. "You said that the tax has been increased privately here?" "Exactly! And it's not been a year or two. The common people say that they are very cunning, and the increase is not much, and it is within the range that everyone can bear, so the common people have not trouble."

"The prefect here seems to have a lot of hands and eyes." He didn't believe that the prefect would not know about such a big matter.As a court official, he turned a blind eye to the king's private tax increase. He was really a good official supported by the court. "

Su Ruomu looked at the displeasure between Xuanji's eyebrows, and nodded. "To be correct, the prestige of the Northwest King here is even more terrifying than that of the emperor. The prefect can't protect himself, so he can't wait to be killed."

"Is there anything else?" Xuanji's cold eyes swept towards Nanyou, and his tone became a little bit more chilly.

"Yes, it is said that as long as they are rich people here, they will regularly pay tribute to the Northwest King every year. There are no restrictions on the types of things, such as cloth, gems, property, and rare things, every year. And the Northwest King is still there every year. Pick out some skilled craftsmen from among the people, and say that they want to help the court make weapons."

Weapon, as soon as his words came out, the air pressure in Xuanji's whole body suddenly dropped, and no one dared to take a breath.

Xuanji faintly evoked a smile, looking extremely dangerous. "Good! What a loyal king of the Northwest."

Su Ruomu patted his hand lightly, then looked at Nanwei next to him. "Is that Ma Hui also with us?

"

"Exactly. The prisoner he just escorted ended up in Ningxia, and the prisoner is in good condition."

"Ji, let's rest for a while and then hit the road. I'm really interested. What kind of transformation has Mu Kailie made in this Northwest?" Su Ruomu thought, one of the crimes here could make Mu Kailie kill everyone, but For many years, officials of successive dynasties have hidden

Newspaper, we can see the depth of its foundation.

"En." Xuanji nodded, his face was tense, his eyes were deep in thought.

After resting for an hour, everyone set off again. They are all official passages, and the journey is faster.This time I bought an extra carriage for the five Ma Hui and the prisoners.

Su Ruomu lay on the car, looking at the sunny weather outside, and gently stroked the necks of the people around him. "What, are you angry?"

"No, I'm just a little displeased. I found this kind of thing when I first entered the Northwest. It can be seen that Mu Kailie is stronger than we imagined.

big. "

"That's right. No wonder they were so arrogant when they entered Beijing. They really have the capital to be arrogant. If they hadn't discovered it early, they might have gone to the capital in a few years." Su Ruomu recalled the moment when he first entered the palace. With a strong attitude, he smiled thoughtfully.

He thought, if he wasn't smarter, Xuanji would definitely make it impossible for him to leave the capital and return to the northwest forever.

"No matter what? Let's talk in Ningxia first." Holding him in his arms, Xuan Ji didn't say another word, closed his eyes, and rested quietly.

The car drove on the official road at the fastest speed. After dark, they stopped in a big city and settled in the largest inn.

Ma Hui and the yamen soldiers changed into the clothes of ordinary merchants, while the prisoner sat in the carriage without letting him show up.

From the perspective of outsiders, they are just merchants from the capital, and they are going to Ningxia to look at the goods. Because they are afraid of danger on the road, they have hired many bodyguards.

"Boss, please come inside."

This is already in the territory of Gansu, their formation did not attract much attention, they settled in a big inn, this time the proprietress was a woman, really rare.

"The two young masters are the real dragons and phoenixes. I have opened an inn here for many years, but I have never seen such a noble young master. You two are the first two. Take a look! You are from the extraordinary family." The proprietress still has a charming charm, wearing a light green summer dress, she looks very smart and capable.

"The proprietress is worthy of being able to open such a big inn. This ability to speak well is really not small." Su Ruomu sat with Xuanji, looked at the smiling proprietress in front of him, and said softly.

They dare not underestimate the woman in front of them who can run such a large inn with the power of a woman.

Hearing his praise, the proprietress laughed happily. "Young master, don't be in Zhesha Nu's house. If you want to, you can call me Ming Niang of Nu's family."

"Give us a table of good food first, we are hungry, and we will stay here tonight, I hope the proprietress can get up early tomorrow morning to help us make breakfast, we have to hurry."

Hearing what he said, Mingniang nodded, and told Xiaoer and the others to go down and let the cook cook quickly.

"By the way, lady boss, sit down and tell us some interesting things here. We have something to ask you."

The inn is the fastest place to get news. Seeing that the proprietress is so smooth, she may be able to get a lot of good news.

"This..." The proprietress was a little startled when she heard his words, and carefully glanced at the silent Xuanji beside her.This man's facial features are handsome, his gestures are self-contained and elegant, and his natural aloof temperament emerges spontaneously. This young man is really not easy to mess with.

"Sit down." Xuanji raised his head, glanced at her coldly, and then did not speak again.

Hearing his nod, Ming Niang dared to sit down and pour tea for the two of them respectfully. "I don't know if Mingniang can help you two,

Ming Niang must know everything. "

"It's very simple, I want to know, how is your government management here? I mean, we want to come to do the goods, what are the hidden rules

? ”

"Oh! If this is the case, you can rest assured, the government here has no regulations. If you just do business here, the court tax will be heavier."

"Why?" Hearing his words, Su Ruomu glanced at him lightly. "I remember that the tax in Jiangnan is not very heavy. Not only that, but also very reasonable. Why is it heavier here? Besides, the tax of the imperial court is unified across the country, right?"

Xuanji gently picked up the wine glass, didn't speak, just listened quietly, with a calm face.

Mingniang looked at him helplessly, "I don't know about this servant. It is said that His Majesty didn't like the Northwest King and made it difficult for you. If you say you are embarrassed, why make it difficult for us little people. Although there is no serious How much, but the difference is too big."

Xuanji paused while drinking tea, and there was a cold light in his raised eyes. "How do you know that the tax was raised by the court, not by the Northwest King?"

Mingmei smiled when she heard what he said, "My lord, this is a notice posted all over the court, think about it. If it wasn't issued by the court, how would the government dare to post it?"

Hearing this, what did the two of them not understand, Su Ruomu raised the corners of his mouth amusedly. "Mingniang is right. The court is too partial. Then what do you think of the Northwest King? The two of us have no other intentions. We are just afraid that we will meet one day. Ask more, so as not to offend the nobleman."

Hearing his words, Ming Niang nodded. "Isn't that the reason? But the Northwest King is very arrogant, and he is also very domineering towards us. It is normal for His Majesty not to like such a personality. If the two of you really meet, it is better to deal with it carefully. Back then There was a businessman who offended him and was killed."

The two young masters in front of them are very noble, obviously they have a strong backing, but Mingniang couldn't help reminding them. "By the way, where are you going, son?"

"Let's go to Ningxia."

"Ningxia is a good place. I stayed there for a few years before, and I know a lot of people. By the way, when you go to Ningxia, you must not get too entangled with people from the Western Regions. They are very rough and unreasonable, and they look like barbarians. "However, no matter how difficult it is to look at the aura of these two young masters, it is only because others are afraid of them.

"Thank you, Ming Niang." Su Ruomu nodded when he heard her words.

Mingniang knew that they had finished asking, and then got up to bless her body. "The slave family is going down first. If there is anything, you can call the slave family."

"Ah."

Watching Mingniang's figure going downstairs, after confirming that she would not come up again, Su Ruomu looked at Xuanji opposite. "I didn't expect that he would use the court."

It is obvious that the tax was raised by oneself, but it was all pushed to the imperial court. This scapegoat is really speechless.

"Hmph! I'm afraid that in the end, Mu Kailie cannot afford to be responsible for all of this. It's just right that his crime is so serious. We can use this to bring down the other two kings."

Gently put down the teacup, Xuanji smiled faintly, the coldness in the smile made people shudder.
