At the entrance to the mine, a group of soldiers wearing armor and sharp swords were standing there. Judging by their clothing...
"Hiss... Are these soldiers from the garrison in Yuanzhou Prefecture? What are they doing here? I haven't heard of anything like this?" The supervisor who was waving a long whip behind He San didn't understand what he was about to face and asked in confusion.
This time, Zhuo Jing was ordered to inspect the mine.
Apart from a small number of Jinyiwei brought from Yingtian Prefecture, most of those following him were garrison troops who were ordered to be on standby from local areas.
After all, if you find out about the accounts, you’re dead.
Once the truth is discovered, if people are forced into a corner, there might be some brave ones who will do something desperate and go all out. Of course, Zhu Yunhuan still has to find someone for Zhuo Jing to rely on, and this person just comes in handy at this time.
He San never returned to reunite.
Zhuo Jing was naturally anxious, so he told these people to ignore everything and surround the mine first. He and Shen Zhen were scholars, so they were riding horses and of course fell behind.
Although the supervisor didn't understand why the soldiers from the surrounding garrisons appeared in the mine, he still rolled his eyes, squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then called out to the other supervisors holding whips nearby and said in a low voice:
"Although I don't know what these people are doing here, for the sake of caution, I'll do the same as before and hide them first to avoid any complications. Once the truth is clear, I'll let these bastards continue mining."
I have to say, his sense of smell is still keen.
Or so he said, very cautiously.
After all, the supervisors in this mine were reliable and capable people selected by Li Shunan from his clan.
"Even the people assigned to work here are so "reliable", no wonder this mine has been so airtight for so long. Shen Zhen, Shen Zhen, couldn't find any problems after a thorough investigation." He San had an expectant look on his face, and murmured in a voice that only he could hear.
After saying this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face.
Although the people at the mine reacted extremely quickly, he remained calm. He smiled and thought to himself, "What a shame! Lord Zhuo is always decisive and meticulous. He has already dispatched all the troops from the garrison. I'm afraid the entire mine has been surrounded. You're just trapped!"
"Huh! Hide? Where else can you hide?"
The supervisor hadn't finished speaking.
The other supervisors exchanged glances and nodded, "Then hurry up. Stay steady, there's no need to panic."
"Even if there really is a situation, we are responsible for mining for His Majesty of Yingtian Prefecture, and they are from the surrounding garrisons. We have always kept to ourselves. Logically, they have no right to come in. We can still deal with them at the gate."
While talking.
The supervisors around began to act in unison.
He San and other "free slaves" were quietly driven to the other direction of the main entrance.
As for the other miners, after being tortured here, they no longer had any thoughts of resistance. They just did whatever the supervisor said and simply followed his instructions and headed in another direction...
And the mine entrance.
The guard, seemingly respectfully and politely, cupped his fists towards the newcomer, then glanced calmly behind him, forcing a polite expression on his face as he slowly said, "Hey, gentlemen from the garrison, what brings you here?"
"Stop talking nonsense and move these barricades away quickly." The Ming Dynasty had only been established for 25 years, and few of the soldiers in the major garrisons had never fought in the battlefield, so they naturally spoke in a tough tone.
The guard at the door's eyes flickered, but he still kept a smile on his face and said hesitantly, "This... maybe not."
"Logically speaking, the military officers of the garrison should be treated as honored guests, but this isn't some ordinary place; it's a mine belonging to the current emperor. This... doesn't make sense."
