"Yes, yes." Dongfang Suo diesheng agrees. He's very proud of being the son of heaven. When did he flatter others in such a low voice, let alone face a local ruffian with no quality and morality.

Lao Liu threw the ring in his hand and nodded: "well, I'll spare you this time, but this time, I'll find that if you don't work again, I won't spare you lightly."

After seeing Lao Liu off, Dongfang Su let out a long breath. He finally realized the helplessness of a common people in the face of bullying and government oppression. No wonder Lingyang people are so desperate.

After helping old man Zhang up, Zhang Yuan said gratefully, "thank you for your help." He is a man with a clear sense of gratitude and resentment. If others help him, they will be grateful.

Dongfang Su shook his head and said, "I can only help you for a while. In the future, I'm afraid it will be necessary." After a moment's pause, he looked around and said in a low voice, "don't so many of you want to fight against them? I've seen that the number of supervisors is less than one percent of you. "

Zhang Yuan said with a bitter smile: "why didn't you think about it, but it didn't succeed once. Do you know why? Because they have the support of the government and the army. Every time there is a riot in the mine, within an hour, the government will send troops to suppress it with sharp arrows and steel knives. Over time, no one dares to do so again. "

"Scum Dongfang Suo scolded and said, "are you going to die like this?"

Zhang Yuan hesitated to look at old man Zhang, who understood his meaning, "seventh master is a good man. You don't have to worry about it. If you have anything, just say it."

"Well." Zhang Yuan answered and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "I've dug out a secret way to go down the mountain. It's just a little short of the last point. After digging through, we can go down the mountain unconsciously." He looked around and lowered his voice a little. "According to my guess, this mine will not exist long after they excavate so crazily. After the mine is finished, we can't live, so we must leave before and find a place to hide." Seeing another supervisor coming, he sped up, "the mine won't be OK in a short time, so I'll take advantage of these days to familiarize you with the route to leave. Remember, don't show your mind. Once the supervisor finds out, we will all die. "

The next time, the three of them were allowed to sleep when there was nothing to do and what to do.

Rao Dongfang Su has a strong body and martial arts foundation. After half a day, he feels tired, not to mention the people who work in the mine for many years. No wonder there are often people who can't bear to fall down. It's not easy for Zhang Yuan to survive up to now.

At night, Zhang Yuan was sleeping soundly. He heard someone call him to get up at night. When he got outside, he was blown by the cold wind. Suddenly, he woke up and saw the person who called him out

Dongfang Su nodded solemnly and pulled him to the dark place. "I have something to ask you."

"What have you got to say?" Zhang Yuan looks at dongfangsu in a puzzled way. He looks mysterious at night.

Once again, after confirming that there was no one around, Dongfang Suo said in a low voice, "to tell you the truth, brother Zhang, I am not a businessman, but a secret envoy sent by me."

Zhang Yuan was very excited. He looked at dongfangsu in disbelief. His voice trembled slightly. "What do you say, say it again?"

"The imperial court already knew that there was something wrong with the Lingyang gold mine, so it sent me here to make a secret investigation. I came to the gold mine on purpose, but I didn't expect that the old man would be involved. I'm really sorry."

Zhang Yuan didn't hear the last half of his words at all. He had only two words in his head - the imperial court.

After a long time, he finally came back to his senses. He was so excited that he trembled all over and said incoherently: "the imperial court I really know why How do you know? "

"Three months ago, the Weishui River in Jinling City fished up 30 jin of gold engraved with the word Lingyang, and the annual output of gold reported by Lingyang to the imperial court was 10 jin. Your majesty thought there was something strange in it and sent me here one by one. You have been working in the mine for three years, and you must know a lot about it. "

"Good! Good! Good Zhang Yuan kept repeating the word. He didn't know whether he was crying or laughing. After a long time, he choked and said, "Your Majesty Your majesty did not forget Lingyang, did not forget us

Dongfang Su said with guilt, "Your Majesty has never forgotten his people. He is just blinded by villains, so he doesn't know your suffering."

Zhang Yuan didn't know what to say, but nodded desperately. After calming down his excited mood, he said without hesitation, "just say what you want me to do."

He didn't doubt the identity of dongfangsu, because he couldn't think of any reason for the latter to lie to him, a trivial miner.

Dongfang Su was not polite to him either. He said directly, "I want to know who will come to the mine besides Wu San?"

"In charge of the mine is a one eyed dragon. His surname is Luo. Wu San and others are all under his command. Besides them, every ten days or so, the master of the magistrate's Yamen will come to carry away the gold."

Dongfang Su's face sank, "so Li Maolin is directly involved in this matter?"Seeing that Dongfang Su casually called out the name of the magistrate of Lingyang Prefecture, Zhang Yuan was even more convinced of his identity. "Yes, not only he, but also Anhui's political envoys and governors. I heard what they said with my own ears. Besides..." "There are also their people in the capital," he whispered

"How did you hear that?" he asked

Zhang Yuan said with a mysterious smile, "they dug a secret room in the mountain. They thought it was secret, but they forgot that it was a mine. After more than ten years of mining, the passageways in the mountain were as dense as cobwebs, extending in all directions. One of the passageways was close to their secret room. When I went to mine, I heard it unconsciously." As he said this, he twisted his eyebrows and said, "on that day, the chief minister and the magistrate were all here. In addition, I heard a young man's voice. His identity should not be low. The chief minister was polite in front of him, but I never heard them mention his specific identity."

Dongfang Suo kept in mind what he said and said, "when will they come back?"

Zhang Yuan pulled the wrench and said, "count the days. The next day will be ten days. The master will surely come, but it's hard to tell other people. I've only met a few times in my three years here. It's just a handful."

Dongfang Su sneered, "enough, I have a way to force them to come to the mine."

Zhang Yuan didn't ask much, but said, "OK, I'll tell you as soon as I see it in the future." After a meal, he arched his hand toward the north and said gratefully, "if you can get rid of these corrupt officials, I will set up a longevity card for your majesty and his old people, and offer three incense sticks every day."

Dongfang Suo jokingly said, "old man? Is your majesty very old? "
