The First Tyrant of Daxia

"It is better to attack than to be on guard. Huaizhou Wuming has gone. There will be news soon."

"And resolving Xiliang's issue is of utmost urgency, so as to avoid being blackmailed by the aristocratic families."

After saying that, Qin Yun immediately wrote a secret letter and had someone send it to Jiangbei, to Xiang Shengnan's hands.

Two days later.

Qian Lin arrived in the imperial capital from Guanzhong.

But there was no time to enter the city.

His caravan was like a long dragon, secretly loaded with food and escorted into the imperial capital.

But suddenly, the situation changed!

In the woods, there was a rustling sound of wind, which raised dust and caused the leaves to sway continuously, as if a group of people were hiding there.

"Hey!!"

Qian Lin quickly tightened the reins and ordered the servants and escorts to stop.

His face was solemn and ugly, and he stared around, as if looking for something.

"who!"

"come out!"

He shouted, sweat dripping down his forehead, unable to hide his fear.

This is the military rations contributed to Qin Yun, enough for a month's rations for an army of 100,000. It was also raised by the Qian family by selling everything they had and doing whatever they could.

If you lose it, there will be no second copy.

Not to mention whether His Majesty will punish him, he himself will have to jump into the river and commit suicide!

At this time, there were shadowy figures.

At least dozens or even hundreds of people emerged from all directions of the woods.

Moreover, he is very agile and is no ordinary person!

The escorts immediately drew their swords.

Looking around in horror.

"Oh no, it's a robber!"

"How to do?"

Qian Lin's face turned the color of liver.

"My dear friends, this is Qian's important cargo. To be honest, it is being sent to the imperial capital for an important official."

"You can't touch it."

"How about Qian give you some silver notes so you can have a cup of herbal tea?"

The words were almost flattering, yet they revealed a sense of steadiness.

If it were anyone else, they would have been scared to death.

A beautiful figure slowly walked out of the woods. She was wearing a veil and had a slim and graceful figure. It was Xiang Shengnan!

Behind her, there were many members of the Xiang family following.

"Who said we were going to steal your food?"

The rather friendly voice made Qian Lin stunned.

"You, who are you?"

Xiang Shengnan took out a token directly from his arms.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Qin Yun's golden dragon waist badge!

Qian Lin was shocked on the spot, his heart felt like it was on a roller coaster, and then he relaxed and almost collapsed.

It turns out to be His Majesty’s man!

"His Majesty has issued a secret order that all the food be given to me."

"Qian Lin, you go to the palace alone and meet His Majesty."

Qian Lin was stunned for a moment: "Excuse me, young lady, no, sir, where are you going to take the food? This is His Majesty..."

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask."

"The situation has changed. Food cannot enter the imperial capital." Xiang Shengnan frowned slightly.

Qian Lin swallowed his saliva, took a look at the golden dragon waist badge, confirmed that it was correct, and nodded: "Okay then."

Soon, the grain truck was handed over.

Xiang Shengnan took the Xiang family members and left secretly, heading not to Jiangbei, but to Xiliang.

Three hours later.

Qian Lin came to the palace alone to ask for an audience.

He was a little nervous: "Your Majesty, just now a woman took your badge and transported the food away."

Qin Yun stood up from the dragon chair and revealed a long-lost smile.

"Don't worry, he's mine."

"Qian Lin, you helped me a lot this time!"

"I heard that you sold a lot of your family property in order to raise this batch of food?"

Qian Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is what I should do."

Qin Yun patted his shoulder and said, "Very good. I will not treat you unfairly."

"In order to reduce suspicion from others, your reward will be delayed for a while."

"I asked you to come here today for a very important matter."

Hearing this, Qian Lin raised his eyebrows and was surprised.

Very important thing?

He understood that the fact that His Majesty said this proved that he had great trust in him, so the rations for these 100,000 soldiers were worth donating!

"Your Majesty, please speak." He suppressed his excitement.

Qin Yun's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "I found out that someone is secretly running a private business of ironware, salt, etc."

"Moreover, it seems to be related to the aristocratic family."

Qian Lin’s pupils widened!

Looking at Qin Yun: "Your Majesty...are you sure?"

"Salt trafficking is not uncommon, even civilian porters do it to make a living, but ironware is a national treasure!"

Qin Yun frowned: "I have already caught him."

"The Royal Guards are bringing back wanted criminals. I need you to help me check if there are any members of aristocratic families among these guys!"

Qian Lin nodded vigorously.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"I, Qian Lin, can't guarantee anything else, but I do know a lot about the aristocratic families."

While talking.

Old Feng flashed in and whispered something in Qin Yun's ear.

Qin Yun's eyes instantly flashed with murderous intent!

At that moment, Qian Lin was so scared that his hair stood on end.

"Let's go, the prisoner is here!"

"I want to see who are the bastards who dare to sell crossbows on the black market!"

"It's really the damn grave that was struck by lightning. How dare you not be afraid of death!!"

……

But for a while.

A square in the palace.

As the sun sets, seven ragged men kneel there with their heads lowered, despair written all over their faces.

Several long shadows were cast.

Qin Yun brought people here.

The dragon robe was noble and its aura was terrifying, which frightened the seven people instantly.

The one who arrested him was actually the emperor!

The Jinyiwei guarding here bowed: "Your Majesty!"

"We have fulfilled our mission and, following His Majesty's orders, have captured a group of sellers!"

Qin Yun's eyes instantly locked onto a scarred man. Judging from his aura and appearance, he was clearly the leader among the seven.

"What's your name?"

The man with the scar on his face looks strong and muscular, and he must be a martial artist.

He was wearing a gorgeous purple dress, and besides looking rich, he also had an untamed air of rusticity.

Another gangster!

"Shi Rong." He replied fearfully.

Qin Yun sneered: "You are their leader, right?"

Shi Rong's eyes flickered as he denied, "Your Majesty, I am just a small follower. My elder brother has not been arrested yet."

Qin Yun glanced at the other six people, and was terrified to death, his whole body trembling.

And their eyes would look towards Shi Rong from time to time.

This scar-faced Shi Rong must be their leader!

"you sure?"

Shi Rong's eyebrows twitched, and he knelt on the ground with great fear: "Your Majesty, I do..."

The words were not finished.

His face was distorted and he screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"what!!"

Blood gushed out. It turned out that Qin Yun had stabbed his foot with a knife.

"No, no!"

"His Majesty!"

His face turned red and he kept begging for mercy in pain.

Qin Yun's expression was grim, but instead of letting go, he kept twisting the handle of the knife, and the blade kept turning in his foot.

The blood and flesh were churning, it was extremely cruel.

The six ragged minions were pale, sweating profusely, and almost incontinent.

Qin Yun roared: "You bastard, you dare to lie to me!"

"Tell me, who do you belong to? Where did the crossbow come from?"

Shi Rong's eyes trembled in pain, and he said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the crossbow machine was not invented by me. I am just a businessman who makes a little money."

Qin Yun sneered.

"Businessman? With your gangster attitude, you still call yourself a businessman?"

"Do you think I'm a fool?"
