Well, Shen was only slightly injured.
Qu Yunmie took the ginseng slices that showed his skill with the knife and said: “…………”
He looked at Aguseka, and Aguseka looked back at him straight in the face: "He is not injured, and he is not dying, so this small piece should be enough. If you think it is not enough, bring him to see me. I want to see with my own eyes whether he needs more salt woman ginseng."
Qu Yunmie... Qu Yunmie had nothing to say.
After all, this is the asset of the Butewu people. The Butewu people are a matriarchal clan, and men here really have no say at all.
He still put away the crystal clear ginseng slices.
As for bringing Xiao Rong to find Luo Wu, that was impossible. He would never do such a thing.
Qu Yunmie put away her things, and Agusega went back to sit down, but Qu Yunmie did not leave immediately. Instead, she thought about it, knelt down next to Agusega, and asked her without any context, "Luo Wu, do you like it here?"
Aguseka looked at him and replied, "Where there is no Salt Lady Lake, it is the same everywhere."
Three days later, Xiao Rong, who could no longer wait and wanted to inquire about the progress, received good news and a bowl of black medicine juice.
The color of the medicine looked extremely strange. It was said that it was a tonic sent by Qu Yunmie. For a moment, Xiao Rong thought that he could no longer bear it and was going to poison him to death. …
Looking left and right, he couldn't figure out what was going on, and Qu Yunmie didn't seem to be good at scheming. So Xiao Rong simply pinched his nose and drank the bowl of tonic.
Anyway, he has already drunk countless medicines in the past seven months, so one more bowl would not be too much.
After he finished drinking the bowl of medicine, Gao Xunzhi came to him happily and told him that the king had thought it through and decided to seek the opinions of all the gentlemen and move the capital away.
Xiao Rong also stood up with a look of surprise on his face. He asked Gao Xunzhi: "Did the king tell anyone else about this?"
Gao Xun was stunned: "Ah, probably not yet?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Rong immediately ran away like a gust of wind.
Gao Xunzhi: “…”
Looking at the empty medicine bowl on the table, he thought to himself, this salted ginseng is indeed a good thing. …………
Xiao Rong ran wildly in the palace, scaring everyone who knew him. He finally found Qu Yunmie. Xiao Rong immediately stopped him and told him not to tell anyone else about this. Qu Yunmie looked at him in confusion. Xiao Rong took a breath and told him his plan in full.
Qu Yunmie frowned when he heard this and hesitated for a long time before finally nodding.
Not long after, the soldiers who were still idle in the barracks heard the latest military order. The king wanted them to gather at the foot of Yanmen Mountain at noon. He would personally behead Li Xiuheng to comfort the souls of the dead Zhenbei Army soldiers in heaven.
Most people actually didn't know who Li Xiuheng was. Everything about Li Xiuheng was too embarrassing, so Qu Yunmie and the others wouldn't tell anyone. Since they were going to be beheaded in public, and it was the first time they had such a big scene, everyone was naturally curious about this person's identity. The soldiers who passed on the military order were Qu Yunmie's guards, including Li Xiuheng and the traitor Zhuang Weizhi. The guards exaggerated their deeds and spread them thoroughly.
Although Li Xiuheng did not harm them, people have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and they were still filled with indignation after hearing this. With this mentality, they quickly organized themselves into a team and were more enthusiastic than before when they were about to fight.
In fact, in essence, I just want to watch the fun. …
It was impossible to call over hundreds of thousands of troops within one hour. All who came were junior officers from other garrisons and tens of thousands of troops nearby. However, these people were enough.
It was almost noon when Qu Yunmie arrived here. The guards were escorting the gagged Li Xiuheng to kneel in front of Qu Yunmie. His miserable appearance could be seen by every soldier below.
Xiao Rong stood in the middle of the staff wearing a cape, and Yu Shaoxie was beside him, asking him from time to time, "How do you feel? You can't blow the wind, so you should go back."
Xiao Rong: “…”
You think I'm in confinement and can't come out to get some fresh air.
After dealing with Yu Shaoxie, he looked down at the dense crowd below. The ones behind him were all soldiers, so he couldn't see them clearly, but the four men in general's armor in front of him were still clear.
This was the first time he saw these four people appear together.
From left to right: Yuan Baifu, Jian Qiao, Gongsun Yuan, and Wang Xinyong.
Their ranking order is also the order of their positions in Qu Yunmie's heart.
Everyone was gathered. Qu Yunmie looked at the sun and then walked in front of the crowd.
There are no loudspeakers here, but because it is a mountainous area, the convection of air is at work, which can carry Qu Yunmie's voice farther.
"This man's name is Li Xiuheng, and he was a former general of the Zhenbei Army."
The people below moved, but did not make any noise of disturbance.
Qu Yunmie paused for a moment and continued, "He was once the leader of the Zhenbei Army and my respected uncle. I and the soldiers supported him, but he sold the Zhenbei Army to the imperial court and shed the blood of the soldiers just to gain his own wealth and glory. While he was eating meat, drinking wine, singing and dancing, the dead soldiers didn't even have straw mats to wrap their bodies with, and could only be buried in the snow."
People became even more angry because they were also soldiers and could empathize with the soldiers' experiences the most.
At this time, Qu Yunmie suddenly drew the knife from his waist, pointed the tip of the knife at Li Xiuheng, and shouted loudly: "He is the one who is sitting on the throne and doing nothing, he is the one who takes lives lightly, he is the one who takes the soldiers' pay and military merits, and he doesn't even care about the dead man's wife and children! He is unworthy of being a man! Today, I will swear on his head that from now on, there will never be such a scum who will be above the soldiers!!!"
After saying that, he immediately raised the long sword high up and used all his strength to chop it down in front of Li Xiuheng's horrified eyes. In an instant, blood gushed out, and because he used so much strength, the long sword was even embedded more than two inches into the ground.
Li Xiuheng's head had already rolled down, and was rolling farther and farther away. Qu Yunmie's face was splattered with blood, making him look even more ferocious.
Everyone stared at this scene in a daze, unable to react. Xiao Rong frowned and looked at Jian Qiao, who was also not used to this scene.
The latter noticed his eyes, shuddered, and finally remembered that he still had a mission.
He sank his energy into his dantian, exerting all his strength, and roared until veins on his forehead bulged: "Good! Great king, you killed him well! As soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, our wish is to protect the country and the north; the king is kind, and we swear to follow you until death!"
Gongsun Yuan, who was standing next to him, almost fell down because of his yelling. He covered his ears in shock, not understanding why his colleague suddenly changed his personality.
Immediately afterwards, something even more shocking happened. Behind him, suddenly many soldiers began to respond. At first, they were sparse and did not sound pleasant, but slowly, they formed a force like thunder.
