Chapter 281: Making up for one's crime
The Prince of Huainan must have brought a lot of military equipment with him when he came to Haizhou, and Zhou Yunshu was willing to help him lose some weight.
In fact, Zhou Yunshu has quite a few weapons.
But part of it was in the space and there was no chance to take it out, and another part was confiscated from Heishui Village.
It is said to be the military equipment of Heishui Village, but in fact it can also be said that it was brought by my grandmother from Nanzhou specifically for the Zhou family.
Zhou Yunshu kept one third of the weapons, and Chuwu and his men sent the remaining two thirds to the middle of the river, and then sent them to a ship from the dock in the river and shipped to Cangzhou.
Ji Mingzhu said that the weapons shipped to Cangzhou were for Zhou Yunqi, but...
Zhou Yunshu is now unsure whether to give it to Zhou Yunqi or Zhou Jianying.
But no matter who it is given to, since it comes from your own hands, it must be given by yourself.
She had made it very clear to Du Mazi that she could provide both food and weapons because she could not abandon the Zhou army.
But the surviving Zhou Jiajun and Zhou Jianying must know who gave them the military supplies and who supported them behind the scenes.
Zhou Yunshu wanted to believe Zhou Jianying.
Although the two are of different generations, they grew up together and are closer than sisters. Before Zhou Yunshu got married, it can be said that the two had never been separated.
In her heart, Zhou Yunshu was unwilling to believe that Zhou Jianying was using her, or perhaps she didn't know how to use her.
But no matter whether Zhou Jianying knew Ji Mingzhu's intention or not, Zhou Yunshu had to be more careful.
Ever since the Zhou family fell into decline and Zhou Yunshu learned from Zhou Yunzhi what had happened in the northern border, she could no longer trust her grandmother wholeheartedly, nor could she trust Zhou Jianying when the situation was unclear.
So, that's it for now.
Zhou Yunshu knew that it would be difficult for her to avoid her grandmother and establish her own power. Since she couldn't avoid it, she might as well establish it openly and expand her power rapidly at a speed that she couldn't react to.
After all, it's not me who is trapped now.
And this long journey is a great opportunity for Zhou Yunshu.
Now that we have the people, we can plunder food, fodder and weapons along the way.
For example, now, the Prince of Huainan is the wealthy family that Zhou Yunshu has found for her existing elite troops. She has some experience in eating out of wealthy families.
Although, this big customer is a little bit difficult.
"master!"
Fu Rong, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke when Cen Miaoying had someone tie him up.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Cen Miaoying who was trying to cover Fu Rong's mouth and said, "Let him talk."
"You said before that if we performed enough meritorious service, we could be freed from slavery."
"Yes, but not you."
Fu Rong knelt on the ground, looking up at Zhou Yunshu with red eyes, "Master, please give me another chance, give the Fu family another chance."
"We are willing to make meritorious deeds to wash away our sins first. Master, please give us a chance to make meritorious deeds while redeeming our sins!" Fu Rong knelt on the ground and kowtowed hard.
"Master, please spare my life!"
"Master, these things were done by uncle himself, and have nothing to do with us!"
"That's right, we've already separated, it has nothing to do with us!"
"Master, if you want to execute someone, just execute Fu Ze alone. We are truly innocent!"
The Fu family members all begged Zhou Yunshu for mercy, and Fu Ya looked at her family members who were taking advantage of her misfortune and cried in disbelief, "My father treated you well before!"
A woman nearby spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at Fu Ya and said, "What's not stingy about that? You're giving us what you don't want at home. Do you think we're dogs?"
"That's right, all the goodies that uncle got from outside are placed in your yard, and you didn't give us any of them!"
"We won't be your family's scapegoats!"
"But my father didn't ask you to do hard labor!" Fu Ya looked at her relatives who suddenly changed their faces, and felt cold all over.
When her father was the head of the village, these relatives were as close and friendly to their family as possible, but now, not only did they not plead for their father, they even turned the tables!
The Fu family said, "You didn't let us go out. If we went out, who would farm for your family?"
"The land in your family was cultivated for you by us, your relatives!"
"Master, please forgive us. We are willing to redeem ourselves from our crimes and make meritorious contributions!"
Zhou Yunshu listened to the noise around her and looked at Fu Rong in front of her who was kowtow- ing so much that his head was broken.
"You and your eldest brother should switch names."
Those who should be responsible are not responsible, while those who do not need to be responsible are rushing to take responsibility.
But people's hearts are unpredictable. Zhou Yunshu is going to take people to "purchase goods" from the Prince of Huainan, so there is no way she will bring any variables.
"Master, please give me a chance to redeem myself from my crime!" Fu Rong kowtowed continuously.
"Spring Bird."
Chunque looked at Fu Rong, who was kowtowed so hard that the ground was almost dyed red, and pulled him up. "Why, do you want me to prepare a coffin for you?"
Fu Rong felt dizzy and almost fell when he stood up. If Chunque hadn't been strong enough, he would have fallen down.
"I'll give you a chance."
Zhou Yunshu said this because Fu Rong had done nothing wrong before, and was even considered quite brave when he was in Heishui Village.
"All of Fu Ze's direct descendants have been imprisoned. As for Fu Ze..."
Zhou Yunshu glanced at Meng Nan next to her and asked, "Do you know what to do?"
Meng Nan smiled and said, "I know!"
After saying that, Meng Nan picked up the knife, dragged Fu Ze, who was still smelling of urine, to the ground, and chopped him down with the knife.
From the moment he opened his mouth to the moment the knife fell, Meng Nan moved so quickly that no one around him could react.
Even Zhou Yunshu was stunned for a moment. Meng Nan's chopping movements were too smooth. After he chopped off Fu Ze's head, he held Fu Ze's head and said to Zhou Yunshu with a smile: "The master said he must die, so he must die."
Quiet, quiet, so quiet that it's dead.
Meng Nan seemed unaware and smiled at Zhou Yunshu, "Hehehe, Master, am I very smart?"
Before Meng Nan's laughter died down, screams and sounds of collapse were heard.
"ah!!!"
"father!!"
Meng Nan was holding Fu Ze's head and was startled by Fu Ya and the boy who suddenly pounced on him.
But he still didn't let go of the head.
"You killed my father, I'm going to fight you!"
The boy pounced on Meng Nan, but was easily kicked away by Meng Nan.
"Why are you fighting with me? My master told me to kill him." Meng Nan said innocently, "How can you be so unreasonable?"
"My wife said that the most important thing about being a slave is to be obedient."
Meng Nan pointed at Fu Ze's head in his hand and said seriously: "If a slave disobeys, he will be a traitor to his master and will die."
He shook the head with half of its face swollen in his hand to show everyone in the village, "Look, this is the fate of betraying your master."
