When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

The soldier collapsed to the ground, his eyes dull.

King Dongshan curled his lips into a cold smile. Let’s see if you’re still lucky enough to do something treasonous and yet you want to get away with it.

What are you dreaming about?

Not only himself, but also his nine clans would have to pay a heavy price as they were implicated by him.

Such a person who disregards human ethics for his own benefit deserves to be despised by his ancestors.

Even in the underworld, his ancestors would not let him go.

When born on earth, he was despised by the king; after death, he went to the underworld and his ancestors did not bless him.

Ha ha!

Is it too late to start being afraid now?

King Dongshan did not let him go and continued to interrogate him:

"Who is your general? Who is General Ma? Tell the truth!"

The soldier was distracted, and Mu Feng roughly grabbed his collar and pulled him up, asking him to kneel down.

He looked up blankly and saw Mu Feng's unfriendly eyes, and he immediately shuddered all over.

Now he is the fish and others are the butcher.

You still need to be more aware of the current situation in order to have a better life.

He cheered up, thought for a moment and answered:

"I don't know the details of General Ma's family background, but I heard that his family is quite powerful in the court. Many people in his family hold important positions in the court. I heard that the highest official has become the prime minister."

King Dongshan's pupils shrank. It really was Prime Minister Ma.

However, King Dongshan confirmed that none of Prime Minister Ma's nephews or nephews had ever taken up military service.

However, what General Ma said made sense, and it seemed that he was somehow related to Prime Minister Ma's family.

Haha! This is really interesting.

Prime Minister Ma is a very cunning man, and no one has ever caught him with any evidence in his life. But this time... if he can get it done, my brother, the Emperor, can do things more freely.

As far as he knew, many of his brother's reform proposals had been blocked by Prime Minister Ma.

Prime Minister Ma was a rather conservative person and was unwilling to accept reforms, which resulted in many of his brother's national policies not being implemented smoothly.

Of course, there is another constraint, which is that the national treasury has no money.

The national treasury was finally replenished a little due to the confiscation of property some time ago, but in the end, the emperor's reforms were completely rejected by Prime Minister Ma and other court officials.

After all, he is a veteran of two dynasties. Although the emperor has ascended the throne, his foundation is still shallow and he cannot confront the old ministers head-on.

Even though he is now the emperor, he still has to endure bullying.

I heard that after leaving the court, the emperor was so angry that he smashed his favorite glass tea set.

This time, if Prime Minister Ma’s nephews are involved in a case of treason, he will be implicated to some extent.

Even though he is an important official in the court, the emperor will definitely use this opportunity to suppress Prime Minister Ma's faction.

It's time for the wind direction in the court to change.

King Dongshan: "Where did these soldiers come from?"

Join the army: "Uh, this..."

Mu Feng glared with his eyes wide open and walked forward with a ferocious look on his face.

Canjun immediately stopped being pretentious. He figured it out. Since they had captured so many people, even if he didn't tell anyone, they would surely know after interrogating a few more people.

However, if he insists on being stubborn, he will be the only one to suffer.

Forget it, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!

Since you have already failed, you'd better not make things difficult for yourself.

He knelt upright, swallowed his saliva, and then confessed:

“These soldiers were already there when I arrived at the barracks, but I heard that they used to be craftsmen.

I heard that they were originally building a palace for the emperor, and later, because they did a good job, the emperor specially rewarded them as personal guards. "

He also heard General Ma say this, but he didn't believe it at all.

This statement can only fool the rough folks and the peasants.

Mu Feng: This is really eye-opening. I have never heard of a craftsman being able to get promoted across industries and become the emperor's personal guard?

King Dongshan fell into deep thought. Building a palace?

King Dongshan: "In which year did they build the palace?"

Joining the Army: "I heard it happened several years ago, but I don't know the exact year."

He came later and heard everything from hearsay.

King Dongshan: "Where do you keep all the documents you handle on a daily basis?"

The soldier's body stiffened, then he looked up nervously.

King Dongshan still looked nonchalant, as if nothing mattered.

However, the soldier who was good at observing people's expressions still noticed the sharpness in the eyes of the person sitting in the upper seat.

He shrank back and whispered:

"The younger one has a room in the camp where all the paperwork is."

King Dongshan: "Where is the camp?"

Join the army: "Little one, little one can't explain it clearly."

King Dongshan looked at him with a half-smile and ordered Mu Feng:

“Send someone to help the soldier find his way. If he can still find the camp, bring him back safely.

If he forgets the way back, then... then let's find a place to bury him properly!"

Join the army: Did I hear wrongly? If you can't find the way, bury it...bury it?

Mu Feng replied respectfully: "Yes! Master, I will arrange someone right away."

King Dongshan: "Find two more people to take the two prisoners to search the camp separately. If they find one, bring it back. If they can't find one... hehe!"

King Dongshan’s sneer is so scary.

When the soldier heard the "haha", he felt a chill all over his body. He understood that those who could not be found would probably be buried in a pit dug somewhere.

Who on earth is this person? How could he have the power to dispose of them at will?

He was taken out by Mu Feng with a nervous mood.

When Mu Feng came in again, he brought in a prisoner who was tied up tightly.

King Dongshan turned around and came behind the soldier, carefully observing his bound hands.

There are thick calluses on the palms, base of the hands and fingers, indicating a pair of working hands.

King Dongshan asked calmly: "At your age...how can you be a craftsman? Are you following in your father's footsteps?"

Jun Han: "There has never been a craftsman in my family. My father is a farmer. The court came to us to select craftsmen to build the palace for the emperor.

Those who are selected can be exempted from taxes for three years and can also learn a craft, that’s why my father let me go.”

King Dongshan lowered his eyelashes and had a bad guess in his mind, but it seemed unlikely.

King Dongshan: "How many years have you been out? Have you ever been home since you were out?"

The soldier lowered his head in a depressed mood and replied:

"I've been out for eight years and I haven't been home once.

The generals were not allowed to ask for leave to go home. They were only allowed to write letters home and give them to the military officer, who would then send someone to deliver our letters to the post station.

King Dongshan: "Have you received any reply from home?"

The soldier shook his head and felt even worse.

Mu Feng: I'm afraid your letter has never been sent out. Alas! How pitiful!

He had been out for eight years. At that time, the one on the throne was not his brother, but his father, whom he disliked very much.
