Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 148 Just switch to poison

Several soldiers guarded the savage, waiting for Zhang Yuan to come.

"Mr. Meng." Zhang Yuan extended his hand to invite: "Let's go."

The savage looked at the two people in front of him and glanced at Meng Changqing. This time, he didn't keep staring at her like before.

"This is your antidote." Zhang Yuan poured out a medicine from the porcelain bottle in front of everyone and handed it to the savage.

The savage asked: "Where is the person who drugged me?"

"He has other matters. From now on, I will be responsible for delivering the antidote to you." Zhang Yuan asked, "Do you have anything to report?"

"The things I brought back last time helped me take back the tribe. Our tribe is not very powerful among the surrounding tribes. We need more food and clothing to be stronger than the surrounding tribes."

Guessing that he might want these when he came over, these things were prepared before Yu Tai left.

Zhang Yuan: "I can give you things, but the benefits are not free. You have to remember how good Daliang is to you. When it comes to using you, you have to put it to use. Otherwise, the antidote will be stopped for you at any time."

Apart from verbal warnings and frightening antidotes, Daliang actually had no way to control the savage.

When Zhang Yuan watched the soldiers carrying food and coats, he felt very unsure.

Two wheelbarrows were loaded with the savage's belongings, and the items and carts were sent together by soldiers outside the city gate.

"This savage gives me a very bad feeling." Zhang Yuan said, "I always feel that he is not worried about the poison on his body at all. The first thing he says when he comes in is not to ask for an antidote, but to ask for something. Mr. Meng, what are you doing? look?"

"I have the same opinion as you." Meng Changqing guessed, "This person probably already knew that the so-called poison was fake. If he only wanted our things, it would be a trivial matter. If he had a bigger plot, how could he come up with such a naive method? The imperial court doesn’t know whether it can handle it.”

"When that day comes, simply replace the 'antidote' with poison. Once this person dies, no matter how hard you plot, you won't be able to realize it."

"What Lieutenant Zhang said makes sense." Meng Changqing climbed up the city wall and looked at the savages walking away. Their excitement could clearly be seen in their body movements.

Zhang Yuan followed her gaze and thought about the bags of grain and cotton-padded jackets on the wheelbarrow. He was so happy for these things, "These savages are actually very pitiful. They don't know how to farm and weave, so they can only live like wild beasts." .”

"One of the rarest things in a high position is to have a compassionate heart, but this heart must be used in the right place." Meng Changqing said to Zhang Yuan: "Pity them, there is no guarantee that you will not lower your guard against them."

"That's what Lord Meng said."

After returning from Zhang Yuan, I met Lai Cai, who had been busy for most of the day. His work changed yesterday, and Meng Changqing said that to the soldiers again this morning. Many people gathered around Lai Cai, asking about Meng Changqing's situation overtly and covertly. .

Seeing Meng Changqing come back, Lai Cai Da complained, "I have seen people who can't understand people for the first time in my life. No matter how serious my tone is, they can actually think that I am praising them. They are really capable."

"Ignore them." Bafang said, "Go to the back office and don't care what they do."

"It's easy for you to say that. Colonel Zhang is gone, the young master is not here, and Colonel Yang has his own troubles.

No one is allowed to do those things? If I don't assign it, why don't I wait for the young master to come back to deal with it? "

"Laicai still feels sorry for me." Meng Changqing said, "Now that I'm back, you can go to the back office to rest, and you can go to Bafang too."

Bafang: "Master, I'm not tired."

"If you're not tired, go to the stable and have a look."

"I will visit the stable later. I feel a little tired. I have to go to the back office with Lai Cai to rest. Master, please sit down and I will bring you soup later."
