Chapter 131 The person who pays for the tiger forest farm is here
The King of Qi refused to kill any more tigers, no matter whether Eunuch Huang threatened or induced him, he would not go.
He pointed in the direction of north,
"Eunuch Huang, I would like to give you a clear guide. You have heard of Princess Xiao Li's reputation, right? Now after that boy Li Yunqing gathered the Northern City Guards, he gave it to Princess Xiao Li. In her hands,
The city defense army is much more powerful than my King Qi’s army.”
"You go to Princess Xiao Li to borrow troops. This is Li Yunqing's fiefdom. A tiger has appeared here. Shouldn't Prince Li's Mansion step in to solve it?"
Eunuch Huang's face was as stiff as a dead man, turning green and red for a while, and finally he stared at King Qi and snorted,
"Not worthy of the responsibility!"
Finally, he flicked his sleeves, left the temporary camp of King Qi's army, and went to find the city guards.
Hua Jin is looking at the sand table in the military camp near Yutou Mountain.
A Shence Army hurriedly entered the king's tent, knelt on one knee behind Hua Jin,
"I've met the ancient master, the empress!"
"I was ordered to guard the entrance of the Yutoushan jade mine. I just learned that the empress is here today. I missed the chance to greet you from afar. I hope you will forgive me!"
Hua Jin looked at the sand table with her hands behind her hands and said nothing.
Yutou Mountain itself is not that big. It is famous because the entire mountain is a jade mine. It is a famous jade mountain in the North.
Many dignitaries in the North know that the prince has been secretly mining this jade mountain. This is already a well-known secret.
But Li Yunqing didn't know.
All the dignitaries in the imperial capital are intentionally or unintentionally hiding the fact that the mineral veins in the North are being exploited in a large scale from Prince Li's Mansion.
So since Li Yunqing learned about this, he felt very angry and uncomfortable, and used thunderous means to seal many mines.
Every time a mine is closed, to prevent illegal mining from coming back, he will leave a small group of divine strategy troops near these mineral veins.
The person who came to see Hua Jin today was Gu Zun, the captain of the Shence Army who stayed in Yutou Mountain.
"Get up."
Hua Jin raised her hand and called Gu Zun forward, pointing to the simple village at the foot of Yutou Mountain in the sand table.
"Who are the people in this village?"
"My Majesty, on the surface they are ordinary people in our northern land, but in fact they are all miners hired by the prince. This village is very tightly guarded and cannot be easily entered by outsiders. It also has military attack and defense projects."
The ancient master handed over his hand and repaid the favor according to the truth.
In fact, when Li Yunqing sealed Yutou Mountain, there was more than just such a village here. Under Yutou Mountain, there were several large villages with obvious military defense capabilities.
There is already a vague tendency to station troops.
Li Yunqing went through several bloodbaths before destroying these large villages.
Only such a small village was left, and it became a fish that slipped through the net.
After Li Yunqing left, Gu Zun and others did not notice anything inappropriate about the village at first. Finally, His Majesty issued an imperial edict to give Yutou Mountain to Princess Biyue.
There was a faint movement in this village, and it was only then that Gu Zun and others noticed it.
They borrowed two tigers from the Ministry of Industry a few days ago to deliberately scare the people in this village. Sure enough, someone from the village immediately went to the Qi King's army camp.
The next day, the king of Qi went out to kill the tiger.
Obviously, this village has colluded with Eunuch Huang for a long time.
Hua Jin nodded and said lightly,
"The Ministry of Industry is convening manpower to replant trees near Yutou Mountain in a very short period of time, and is preparing to use a large amount of wire to build a fence. Tigers will be raised in the fence. This village, or let them move away,
Or let them die!"
"Yes! I follow your Majesty's decree."
Gu Zun bowed his hands and stepped back, Wu Tian and Lian'er quickly entered the king's tent.
Lian'er's face looked bad,
"Your Majesty, there is news from King Qi's army that Eunuch Huang is coming to our place."
"It's the one who announced the imperial decree. What is that, Eunuch Huang? Why did you say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is here?"
Hua Jin turned back and frowned,
"What is he here for?"
Wu Tian cupped his hands and said:
"He should be here to mobilize troops and let the city guards go ahead to kill the tiger. King Qi happened to run into the forest area where we have tigers this morning. It is said that he was frightened half to death and refused to enter the forest again.
Kill the tiger."
After saying that, Lian'er took up the conversation again and told Hua Jin exactly what King Qi had said to encourage Eunuch Huang in the king's tent.
Because it was necessary to build a tiger breeding forest before Bi Yue took over Yutou Mountain, the Ministry of Industry, in order to meet the construction deadline, planted trees and stretched barbed wire fences, while at the same time releasing tigers into the forest where the barbed wire fences were stretched.
It just so happened that King Qi went out to kill the tigers and approached the tiger forest, so that King Qi could see what the roar of a hundred tigers meant.
"So this Eunuch Huang thought of our city guard army?"
Hua Jin put her hands on the edge of the sand table, looked at the sand table in front of her, and couldn't help laughing.
"Eunuch Huang wants to mobilize troops from the city defense army. Is it for nothing for him?"
Coincidentally, the Ministry of Industry has made some big moves recently, spending too much money and touching some iron ore reserves. Hua Jin's flesh is aching.
No, here comes the person who pays for the tiger forest farm.
She stretched out her hand, called Wu Tian to come forward, and gave Wu Tian a few instructions in a low voice.
The news about the Beggar Clan flew faster than Eunuch Huang. On the second day, Eunuch Huang and his party arrived at the city defense barracks with great momentum.
The city guard camped near Yutou Mountain, but did not explain that Hua Jin also came to Yutou Mountain.
This just made it convenient for her, as she didn't have to be arrogant to this Mr. Huang.
He also asked Eunuch Huang to mobilize the city defense army and be particularly bossy.
Wu Tian wore the armor of a city guard general and received Eunuch Huang.
I saw Eunuch Huang simply saying a few words about his purpose, pinching his fingertips and urging,
"I can tell you that Yutou Mountain was given to Princess Biyue by the Holy One. It is also the Holy One's intention that you go up the mountain to kill tigers. If these tigers don't die, how can Princess Biyue take over Yutou Mountain?"
"Why don't you hurry up and go out to our camp to kill the tiger?"
The city guards stood in front of Eunuch Huang one by one, but did not respond.
During the recent period, they had been trained by Hua Jin so much that they had the appearance of a tough warrior. They stood on the ground one by one, just like heavy iron lumps.
If it had not encountered a strong opponent, such as the Shence Army, the City Guard Army would have maintained its current majestic appearance.
The entire city guard camp was silent, Wu Tian raised his sword and held it in his hand.
"This father-in-law, we are the city guards in the north. We dare not act rashly without the king's order."
"What are the king's orders and not the king's order? Your city guard army was not under the control of Prince Xiaoli before. I have told you that the prince has been paying attention to our family's trip. Could it be that your city guard army did not even follow the prince's orders?
Do you dare to disobey?"
Eunuch Huang glanced at Wu Tian, pinched his orchid fingers, and smiled sadly.
Wu Tian immediately stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Well, my father-in-law also knows the rules of our city defense army in the past. As long as someone can give some to our brothers..."
As he said that, Wu Tian made a gesture of pinching his fingers and laughed again,
"Brothers, just listen to whoever tells you. As long as this... is in place, let alone killing tigers, even killing people, there is nothing wrong with the brothers."
Eunuch Huang looked at the city guards with disdain,
"You dare to discuss money with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty?"
"Of course I don't dare to do this."
Wu Tian used his lifelong acting skills and smiled,
"My father-in-law asked the brothers to kill the tiger, but the brothers dare not respond. It's just that the tigers are ferocious beasts. It's hard to say whether the brothers will live or die on this trip. If there are no benefits, who among the brothers would dare to seriously risk his life?"
Quiet, the whole military camp continued to be quiet. Eunuch Huang stared at Wu Tian. After a while, he looked at the motionless city guards in the military camp.
The military appearance and discipline of this city guard army are better than those of King Qi's army, and they actually look more powerful than the Imperial Forest Guard Army in the Imperial Capital.
As long as the city defense army can eliminate all the tigers in Yutou Mountain and give up some money to these money-minded things, what can they do?
Suddenly, an amiable smile appeared on Eunuch Huang's dead face. He took out a stack of banknotes from the sleeve of his python robe and stuffed it into Wu Tian's hand.
"Nowadays, the emperor's orders are becoming more and more ineffective in such border areas. There is no money to use them. Hahaha, use this money to buy some wine for the brothers in the city guard."
Wu Tian pinched the banknote in his hand, laughed, raised his hand,
"Order your troops and go into the mountains to kill the tiger!"
