Chapter 1560: The Slave Camp
After receiving the king's order, Aldo followed Jiang Fei's instructions and was not in a hurry to convey the decree. He deliberately delayed it for two days until the third day, which was the deadline for the slaves to arrive in Mara. , he passed on the decree.
In this way, when the slaves learned of this order, even if they rushed with their lives, they would not be able to reach Mara as scheduled!
Not only that, but according to Jiang Fei's instructions, Aldo picked himself up completely, without mentioning himself from the beginning to the end, and even spread the news secretly, saying that this decree was a favored trust. The imperial concubine bewitched the emperor to publish it, and the prime minister Aldo wrote many times to persuade him, but the new imperial concubines in the old emperor's harem did not adopt Aldo's opinion, but continued to issue decrees.
You must know that gossip spreads much faster than the legal text, and the decree of "defeating all failures" has not been communicated to the grassroots officials. No one in the whole Mara knows that Aldo stopped the emperor's order, but there was no success. up.
"Good job!" Jiang Fei was overjoyed after listening to Aldo's beaming narration.
"What are we going to do next?" Aldo was also very excited, after all, the temptation of the emperor's dragon chair made him obsessed.
"Next, you will continue to build momentum in Mara, and leave the rest to us!" Jiang Fei smiled slightly, and then took Bella to wait for the girl before preparing to leave.
"Then there will be Mr. Lao. If I can really take the position, no matter what your request is, I will definitely satisfy it!" Aldo said respectfully.
"Hehe, it's just a matter of raising your hand, I'm here to congratulate Your Majesty in advance!" Jiang Fei smiled slightly, he didn't care about Aldo's promises, and the promises of people like Aldo are the most meaningless. , if he really succeeds in usurping the throne, the first thing to do is to get rid of Jiang Fei and others.
For people like Aldo who were born at the bottom of the society and then succeeded in ascending to the top, their top priority is not how to reward those who helped them, but to find a way to sit firmly on the chair under their buttocks, and they will beat themselves up Get rid of all the ministers, because these people are more capable than him, and he is afraid that after they help him cause others to rebel, they will rebel against him again!
But this is completely meaningless to Jiang Fei, because Jiang Daguan doesn’t want to stay on Planet Norton first, and secondly, he doesn’t plan to support Aldo to the top. What he needs is to completely mess up Planet Norton. The smoke is everywhere, so that no one will talk to the "players" anymore, and no one will give them precious population!
Although there was still a way for the players to go at that time, that was to help one of the princes to calm down the Quartet and reunify Norton, but that was a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. You must know that destroying is much easier than rebuilding. Jiang Fei just messed up This planet, and the "players" must restore order to this planet,
In this way, it is possible for the new ruler to reward them with population again.
Not to mention whether the "players" can do this at that time, even if they can do it, it will take a lot of time, which is enough for Jiang Fei, a task can delay these players for several years or even ten years time, it's definitely worth the money!
After bidding farewell to Aldo, Jiang Fei and others left Mara City directly, and then they followed the messenger and walked in the direction the slaves came.
It took more than a day for Jiang Fei and the others to leave like this. When Jiang Fei and the others saw those slaves, the arrival date of these slaves had already been delayed.
"The imperial decree has arrived!" With the shout of the messenger, all the soldiers including the escorting slaves and the slaves knelt down.
"His majesty's sacred metaphor..." Then the herald began to read the decree aloud, the content boiled down to five words - all failures will be punished!
"this……"
"How can this be!"
"We were delayed because the road was washed out by the torrential rain!"
"My lord! You don't want us to do this!"
"This is how to do ah!"
...
In an instant, the slaves panicked, because according to the new law, they would all be executed when they arrived in Mara!
"Shut up! If you dare to yell again, you will be killed immediately!" shouted the officer escorting the slaves, and at the same time the whip in his hand was whipped like a slave crying for injustice.
"Crack! The whip hit the man's face directly.
"Ah!" The slave screamed, but he didn't dare to say anything more, because after being a slave for a long time, the blood of these people has been worn down, and the result of being beaten and scolded for a long time is that they forget to resist.
Seeing that the slaves didn't dare to make a sound, the herald said condescendingly: "This is a decree issued by His Majesty the Emperor. Even the Prime Minister can't make His Majesty change the order. What can I do? Go to Majesty immediately. Pull it to wait for death!"
The herald is obviously Aldo's person, and secondly, he did not forget to sever the relationship with Aldo, and helped the old emperor to hate.
"..." The slaves looked at each other, most of their eyes were numb, but Jiang Fei keenly saw the anger and unwillingness in the eyes of a few people!
"It seems that these slaves can still be saved." Jiang Fei nodded. If all these slaves were numb, then Jiang Fei would be really dumbfounded.
Jiang Fei kept those people with anger and unwillingness in their eyes in mind, but he didn't show up. He continued to observe in secret. It wasn't until camping at night that Jiang Fei came to the slave camp alone.
Because Jiang Fei came with the herald before, the soldiers guarding the slaves also knew him and knew that this was an adult who came with the herald, so they didn't dare to stop him.
After arriving at the camp, Jiang Fei used his mental power to scan, and immediately found the few slaves he had noticed. Although they were restricted by the task and were not allowed to use their power, they would still not be discovered by scanning them for cheating. .
After finding the location of these people, Jiang Fei went straight to the vicinity of these people. Although it is said to be a slave camp, slaves often have no human rights. They have no tents to live in, just a few pieces of patched rags, and then A hut was built with branches.
These few people living in shacks are already considered to be in good conditions, and more slaves sleep directly on the ground. Before the heavy rain in the south, many slaves died of illness due to the rain. When we set off, there were 1.2 million slaves. Now There were only 800,000 slaves left, and 400,000 slaves died on the road.
"No wonder these slaves didn't react too much after hearing the death trial. Maybe death is a kind of relief for them!" Jiang Fei sighed in his heart.
