Unlike Wuta, this Qingjun old man named Chen Xiangdong can be regarded as a famous person.

Originally the largest leader of the Salt Gang in the East Prefecture, he traversed southeast of Da Gan, sold private salt, robbed court tributes, and killed several border officials. Everyone in the court was frightened, and no one was willing to work in a rich place in southeast of Da Gan.

The imperial court sent many troops to conquer the campaign, but none of them succeeded. Either they could not even find a figure, or they were beaten to the death of the salt gang. The last time the 50,000 army survived less than 10,000.

Emperor Wanlong was furious and killed the commander, and ordered Prince Chun to lead a 100,000 army and a 100,000 navy army to pacify the southeast in one fell swoop.

Before sending troops, Chen Xiangdong was captured by the Tiannan Song family for some reason and escorted him to Zhuocheng.

The Song family also lost many masters along the way. The Emperor Wanlong was very happy and moved by the Song family's merits. Despite the opposition of several ministers in the court, he was given the title of King Yu Nan of Song Ya. The rest of the people in the court praised Emperor Wanlong as the great blessing of Qitian, and the Song family guarded the southern territory of Gannan.

In the first few years, it was fine. All the tributes were the highest among other states, but the court asked for more and more, but the Song family's tribute was less and less.

If the court officials urged to supervise the case, it would be just a violation of the situation, and gradually it would be a bit too big.

Prince Chun originally intended to eliminate the disaster, but many ministers in the court strongly opposed it. Even the harem of Emperor Wanlong also came from opposition. Before the decision was made to send troops, the city was already full of storms. The Song family got the news early and almost raised their troops to resign.

At this time, the Western Rong was in great power. Emperor Wanlong and Prince Chun had no choice but to marry one of Emperor Wanlong's sisters to Song Yayu and promised Yuzhou, where the Song family was located. In addition to the governor, even the prefect can be appointed by the Southern King's Mansion.

After this order, the Song family stabilized, and the Song family also contributed tributes on time for several years. In recent years, except for Prince Chun and Emperor Wanlong, no one mentioned the Nanzheng incident. Even if Emperor Wanlong's sister died in Tiannan, it was left unresolved, and the court did not ask too much responsibility.

Chen Xiangdong is known as the hidden dragon. When it was in its prime, the Dagan court received a report of a gathering of 100,000 people in Cang'erzhou. It can be considered as strong soldiers and horses. The details are unknown.

Cang'er Prefecture is famous all over the world for its pearl corals. In addition to purchasing from Dagan, the northern borders of the Western Regions and southern countries are useful. When Shen Xiangdong was dominating Cang'er, although pearl corals were produced much less every year, the price did not change much.

After being captured by the Song family, the Cang'er Salt Gang also disappeared. The Song family was awarded the merits. The court allowed the Song family to go on business in Cang'er and exempted him from his ten-year tax. This was considered to be a reputation as Chen Xiangdong.

It has been several years since Chen Xiangdong was escorted to Zhuocheng. The court did not kill him, but only for the rumors that Chen Xiangdong had hidden a treasure that was as rich as a country.

There were many covetous people in the royal city, but no one dared to make a living. Naturally, he was even more reluctant to kill Chen Xiangdong just like this, so he locked him in a prison for the day and kept him until today.

It was not until Li Luo talked about it that Emperor Wanlong remembered Chen Xiangdong and his treasure. He hesitated for a moment and was immediately accurate.

On that day, Li Luo brought the instructions of Emperor Wanlong to the Tianzhu to see Chen Xiangdong. The prison guards hurriedly led Li Luo to Chen Xiangdong's prison. The guards were so strict that they were no less than the prison of the Grand Tutor Yu Chengyun that day.

Li Luo shook his head secretly, walked to the prison door, looked inside, and saw an old man lying on the brocade bed and closed his eyes to rest. When he heard Li Luo coming in, he didn't move.

There were tables and chairs in the cell, and they were prepared in a neat manner. Li Luo looked around in surprise and turned around and asked, "Why are there such a cell in the heavenly prison?"

The prison guard was timid and said that it was arranged by the prefect. He didn't know why. At this moment, he saw Chen Xiangdong turning over in the prison cell and snorted coldly, "I asked if I knew it."

Li Luo thought for a moment, figured out the reason, and smiled silently and said, "It turns out that I'm superfluous. You guys should step down. I have something to tell Gang Master Shen."

Several jailers looked at each other and replied, "Little Prince, this Chen Xiangdong is extremely vicious. If the little prince is frightened, the young people cannot afford it. We are still waiting here. Please forgive me."

Li Luo smiled slightly and said, "If I ask something, you can explain it to others. But I will talk secretly with the order. If you stay here, I am afraid that I will lose my life and walk out of this prison."

Several jailers shivered and hurriedly retreated. One of the jailers took a chair and let Li Luo sit down.

Li Luo turned to the prison, Chen Xiangdong was still sleeping soundly. Li Luo did not speak and sat on the chair. Before leaving, the prison guard shouted angrily: "Chen Xiangdong, why don't you come and see the little prince."

Chen Xiangdong suddenly opened his eyes, and a glimmer suddenly appeared in his eyes. He looked directly at the prison guard and Li Luo. The prison guard was shocked and took a few steps back. He didn't dare to make a sound for a while, and walked out quietly. Li Luo looked at Chen Xiangdong quietly, and Chen Xiangdong glanced coldly, with a slightly surprised flashing in his eyes, and turned around and lay flat, ignoring Li Luo.

Li Luo smiled and said to himself: "Mr. Chen hasn't heard about Cang'er for a long time. Since the Song family entered Cang'er five years ago, the prefect and governor sent to Cang'er by the court have been very close to the Song family. The pearl coral produced has increased nearly twice as much as five years ago, and the price has remained high.

I heard that the pearls and corals that will start tribute next year will increase by another 70%.

The finances of Cang'er Prefecture are almost as good as those of Yuzhou where the Song family is located. The memorial sent by the magistrate to the people of Cang'er Prefecture, which is much better than when Mr. Qianlong was there. However, there were rumors of merchants before the New Year that Cang'er has many desperate people recently. I think it is because he is jealous of the pearl coral and takes risks, but it has not become a big deal. The Song family has been the best among the bandit suppression in the past years, and it is indeed one of the six major families."

Chen Xiangdong was lying on the bed and still didn't move. I don't know if he didn't hear it or he was really asleep.

Li Luo continued: "The magistrate of Cang'er thought of a good idea. In order to prevent the common people from being bewitched and become thieves, he specially requested the court to implement the law of continuation, which was limited to the clan. It was investigated every three months. If one person in the clan was missing, he would implicate the clan.

"Who are you?" Before Li Luo finished speaking, Chen Xiangdong stood up suddenly and walked to Li Luo, his face turned cold.

Li Luo stood up and bowed, saying, "Mr. Qianlong is indeed well-known. I am the prince of Prince Chun's mansion, and my name is Li Luo."

"Hmm?" Chen Xiangdong said in a little surprised: "Li Chengye's son?"

"good."

"It is said that Prince Chun Li Chengye is the number one military general of the Great Gansu. He is invincible and can defeat everything. Unfortunately, he has no chance to meet him on the battlefield. I wonder if he is worthy of his reputation?" After saying that, Chen Xiangdong's eyes shot out a fierce fighting spirit and stared at Li Luo directly.

Li Luo smiled slightly and replied, "Thank you, Gang Master Chen. I heard that my father was on the battlefield and never suffered a defeat. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to see you on the battlefield."

Chen Xiangdong's eyes flashed repeatedly and said, "Your father should have raised troops to Cang'er back then, but I was trapped by mistake. So I did not compete with your father on the battlefield, and it also made Prince Chun's name of yummy."

"Gang Master Chen is indeed more aware than the sky. Even though the matter was not yet decisive in the battle, after Gang Master Chen was captured, the Salt Gang scattered everywhere. Now Canger returns to Da Gan, but there is only one more Tiannan Song family."

"What do you want?" Chen Xiangdong asked coldly.

"I want to make a deal with Gang Master Shen."

"Hmph," Chen Xiangdong looked at Li Luo disdainfully and said, "Saying so much is not for the treasures of rumors in the world. If Li Chengye wants it, let him do it himself." After that, he was about to turn around and go back to sleep.

"Let's wait." Li Luo said loudly.

"What else? Say it quickly, don't disturb me."

"Gang Master Chen is now in a cage. I don't know if he still remembers why he fought with the sky back then?"

"Why?" Chen Xiangdong yawned and replied: "If you have nothing to do, just turn it around and just pass some boring and sad days."

"So that's it." Li Luo continued, Chen Xiangdong looked at Li Luo coldly, his mouth moved slightly without responding.

"The leader of the Chen Gang was born into a famous family in Cang'er. His family was wealthy and he did not make a living. The people of Cang'er are different. Corals are better. Pearls are said to be produced in the deep sea. The court collects more and more. Cang'er goes to sea to buy pearls every year. Not to mention some noble families, they compete to make money. Every family is mourning. The leader of the Chen Gang'er is in Cang'er. These things seem to be much better. The family has surplus grain, and they have a little stable life and have been in peace for several years, but." Li Luo paused.

"Just how?"

"But nowadays, people in Cang'er live a life of miserable life, even worse than those of the time when the leader of the Chen Gang were in charge. Even though I had not been intimate, I thought it would be no different. Besides, I heard that Cang'er women were petite but very soft. There are many Cang'er women sent to Zhuocheng now, and there are several in the palace. Some people in the court told me that Cang'er's tribute would be added to Cang'er women in the future."

"Life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in heaven. Emperor Wanlong is unwilling to care about these things. I am a small mountain people, what do you think of."

"The leader of the Shen Gang was unwilling to think about why he had to raise an army back then, rob tribute and kill corrupt officials, and avoid the heavy taxes of the common people. The court recruited several times, but the leader of the Shen Gang was unmoved and did not do anything for fame and fortune. He was captured that year, and the salt gang members who followed the leader of the Shen Gang were beheaded nearly 5,000, and nearly 100,000 were killed due to implication. Even if he went into the deep sea to search for pearls, he would not die. The leader of the Shen Gang had his own treasure to protect him, and the family was protected and survived. However, now he is just a prisoner at the level, and I am afraid that the leader of the Shen Gang would not have such good luck."

Chen Xiangdong was angry and said, "Shut up! Yes, I missed the life of the hero Cang'er, and it's not enough to apologize if I died thousands of times. But I, Chen Xiangdong, did things one by one. If the court had not imposed heavy taxes, how could I rebel? Huangkou, my hero of the Salt Gang are the ones who can comment on me?"

Li Luo nodded and said, "Gang Master Chen is right. Back then, the imperial court and the Song family arrested the remnants of the Salt Gang. They only heard that they had died in battle or fled. There were few people who surrendered and recruited, and they were indeed heroes." After saying that, looking at Chen Xiangdong, Li Luo slowly said, "The matter was not done back then, Gang Master Chen, have you ever thought about responsive to the promise you made for the Salt Gang heroes?"

"Where did I come from my promise? I was blinded by my mind by a few words."

"Gang Chen, Li Luo thought that when doing things in people, whether right or wrong, he wanted to be ashamed. Gang Chen was in Zhuocheng Tianzhu for five years, but he felt guilty?"

"Nothing nonsense, where did I feel guilty?" After saying that, Chen Xiangdong turned around and shouted, "Let's go quickly, it's just a waste of time to get upset me."

"If it weren't for guilt, then the leader of the Chen Gang would be unwilling to accept it." Li Luo said in a deep voice: "The way of heaven is unfair. We should compete with the heavens, not seeking to be remembered forever, but we must be upright and do our best to do our best. Only after death can we be worthy of the fellow who shared life and death and the 100,000 people who died tragically."

"Hmph, if I tell you the treasure, can you let the court reduce the tax on Cang'er's tribute?"

"I didn't come for the treasure of Master Chen."

Chen Xiangdong turned to look at Li Luo and asked, "Then why are you here?"

Li Luo did not answer and said directly: "In my opinion, the thirty-three states of Da Gan, each mountain, a river, and a thing and a person are treasures. In terms of this, more than 10,000 heroes of the Salt Gang are probably the biggest treasures of the leader of the Shen Gang."

Chen Xiangdong didn't say anything, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes. Li Luo saw it, sighed slightly, and continued, "What Li Luo asked for, please follow my Western Palace. Although Li Luo has no important position, I, the leader of the Chen gang, promised that the emperor would not increase the tax on Cang'er within three years. Within ten years, the tax on Cang'er should be like the leader of the Chen gang."

Chen Xiangdong looked at Li Luo deeply and said slowly: "Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

Li Luo smiled gently and said, "Where did the main Chen Gang escape? Cang'er is here, and no matter how far the leader of the Shen Gang runs, he will still have to go back."

Chen Xiangdong took a breath and said, "Why did you choose me? Why did I believe your promise?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The leader of the Shen Gang joined forces with the heroes of the grassroots and the Da Gan and the Southern Song families. He defeated the Da Gan several times, and defeated the Da Gan several times. With the number of ten thousand people, he could travel for decades. This shows that Mr. Chen was very smart. I once asked in the Privy Council that in the past ten years, many soldiers have been raised in the four realms of Da Gan, but only Mr. Mr. can support him for so long. If his location is not Cang'erzhou, even if my father comes, it is still difficult to determine the number of winners and losers. Moreover, what Mr. Mr. Mr. is not power or beauty. I respect his character and come to invite him. As for whether he believes it or not, he will make a decision when he arrives in Xifu."

"You want me to work hard for Da Gan." Chen Xiangdong lowered his head and thought.

"I don't want my life. No matter whether the Western Palace is successful or not, I will definitely keep the agreement. The sir has been in this prison for five years. Why not go out with me to take a walk in Dagan, Cang'er and the Song family, I also want to go and see it."

Chen Xiangdong suddenly looked up at Li Luo and said slowly: "General, Hu Zi, you don't know if you have a good fortune."

Li Luo smiled and said, "Good and misfortune are just dependent on each other. Mr. Chen, this dynasty cannot be overthrown, so why not try to do something with me to save it."

After a while, Chen Xiangdong said word by word: "Okay, I will promise you. But if you don't keep your promise, no matter where you are, I will take your life."

"Okay." Li Luo nodded, "If I can't see what I do, the sir can leave." Chen Xiangdong looked up in surprise, and Li Luo said lightly: "I don't want Cang'er to add another unjust soul."

After saying that, he got up and was about to call the prison guards in and release him, but suddenly he heard Chen Xiangdong say sadly: "I still ask for something."

"you say."

"The gang members who died in the battle in the Salt Gang hope that the court can accept it and return to the clan mourning hall."

On that day, Chen Xiangdong was taken out of the Heavenly Prison. Before he even walked out, he was intercepted by the prefect and stopped him in all his ways. Li Luo secretly got out an imperial edict and said that those who resisted the edict were killed. Then he took Chen Xiangdong away. It is unknown whether anyone would make any suggestions to Emperor Wanlong. Before leaving Zhuocheng, Li Luo specially asked Emperor Wanlong for an imperial edict. Cang'er died tragically. No matter whether he was a rebel, he could return to the sect.
