Yuan Tan originally thought that Wang Yun had already escaped thousands of miles away.
Maybe it will appear in Cao Cao's place, or Jiangdong.
Unexpectedly, there was a clue at the construction site of the East Acropolis, which was close at hand.
The brigade went to search, and Wang Yun was afraid that it would be detrimental to Diao Chan's safety.
The spies knew more about Wang Yun than Diao Chan.
Yuan Tan still felt that he should go there in person.
Of course it is also lurking in, if not, Wang Yun will definitely harm Diao Chan.
Yuan Tan walked on the country road in plain clothes.
The East Acropolis is ten miles away from the national capital. In ancient times, this distance was already a countryside.
The clothes he wore were exactly the same as those of the common people.
I saw a group of old farmers running over in a hurry, and one of them was still yelling, "Brother, don't be dazed, I just call you, run."
"???" Yuan Tan said, "This fellow, is there any bandits?"
"Worse than bandits!" The fellow ran away.
Yuan Tan had nothing to run away, instead he thought about what was more terrifying than bandits.
Then I saw that a team of local guards had arrived, escorting more than a dozen civilians.
These people were in chains, and they were all tied to a rope to prevent them from escaping.
The guards on both sides, from time to time, scolded him to leave quickly, just a whipping.
Not like criminals, because there are men, women and children.
Among them, the leader riding a horse should be an official according to his clothes, and his grade is not low.
Are these people more terrifying than bandits? Yuan Tan realized something.
When the official saw Yuan Tan, his eyes lit up, and he said to his confidant, "This man is strong, one can stand up to ten behind him, Cui Quan."
Without further ado, Cui Quan surrounded Yuan Tan with the yamen servants.
Apparently this is often done without having to finish the sentence.
"What are you doing?" Yuan Tan frowned.
"This is Cui Jian, the supervisor of our East Guard City." Cui Quan said.
From this surname, one knew that it belonged to the Qinghe family clan Cui's family.
"What's the matter?" Yuan Tan said lightly.
Cui Jian gave a disdainful look, "Is there any household registration information? Take it out and have a look."
Yuan Tan was taken aback, what was his identity, and where did he bring this kind of thing when he came out. Even if you want to bring it, you have to go to the ancestral temple to take it out.
"I forgot to bring it, you can send someone to my house to get it."
"Hehe, I forgot something." Cui Jian's face changed immediately, faster than flipping through a book, and said sharply: "It's clear that he doesn't have it. This person is strong and has a scar on his body. He must be a bad person. Come here, give me Take it down."
Yuan Tan was talking about resisting, but look at the unlovable gazes of this group of captured people, and the ugly face of Cui Jian.
Arbitrarily arresting people as young men, forging rosters, and embezzling food and salaries.
No matter who Yuan Tan was, he immediately came up with countless ways to make money.
When such a person met him, it was a disaster.
But now Yuan Tan doesn't plan to do anything. After all, there are guards on the Acropolis construction site, so it's better to just go in and look for Diao Chan's trace.
So he was tied up, put on shackles, and tied to the thick rope.
Yuan Tan looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, his eyes were empty. He had never been so unlucky in the Three Kingdoms era.
The old man in front burst into tears when he saw his expression.
Yuan Tan was puzzled.
The young man behind said: "Brother, seeing how strong you are, you have a great chance of surviving."
Yuan Tan understood, "The reason why you were arrested is also because you don't have household registration."
"We have household registration."
"Arrest even if you have a household registration?" Yuan Tan was very angry. It seemed that he had thought well before, but this Cui Jian was really bad to the bone.
Although these civilian husbands were paid corvee, according to Yuan Tan's advocacy, they were still paid a certain amount of food, and those who were captured would definitely not need to be paid.
Fill your pockets.
"What's this question you're asking? We common people, we arrest young men whenever we want." The old man said angrily.
clap clap.
The guards next to him each gave a whip, which was a pain.
...
Gradually, a voice came from the front.
When we arrived at the East Acropolis construction site, the scene was still in full swing. If there were no overseers wielding whips, no coolies screaming, and crying casualties, it would be a hundred-day battle where everyone contributed.
clap clap.
Beaters are everywhere, and coolies in rags are everywhere.
It made Yuan Tan seem to see the slave who built the pyramid for the pharaoh.
Can we stop slavery? Fortunately, we are also a feudal society now.
"I've seen you, my lord." The supervisors came over to salute one after another.
"Let them join the ranks of construction immediately. You must know that the deadline requested by the third son is very strict. Tell the folks that we have no choice."
At Cui Jian's request, the supervisors first untied the new coolies like Yuan Tan, and then waved their whips.
The people around Yuan Tan shrunk their necks in fright.
However, before he could wave it down, there was a loud noise.
"Earthquake!" Countless people ran.
Not an earthquake, but worse than an earthquake.
Everyone looked up, full of shock.
A section of the city wall of the East Acropolis collapsed here, almost as deterrent as the bombing of the building in later generations.
Immediately, the dust was flying, and no one could be seen on the opposite side.
When the dust dissipated, it was Cui Jian and the others' faces that were shattered.
Tofu dregs project!
Five words popped up in Yuan Tan's mind.
Corruption must be cutting corners. What is the Acropolis? It is a fortress to protect the capital of the country and protect the Yuan family. This person should be executed, there is nothing to say.
In fact, Yuan Tan didn't know that the construction of the Acropolis was used by his father and brothers to defend against him.
During the landslide, many people were crushed, crying and calling for help one after another.
Chaos started here.
Yuan Tan took the opportunity to knock out the guard and run away.
After a while.
The army stationed here to maintain security took action, and the chaotic scene was suppressed.
Cui Jian stood on the ruins like a mountain, desperate, "What should I do? What can I do? The third son will come to inspect soon, and he saw that the repaired city wall has collapsed. Do you still want my life?"
"Cui Quan, send me an order to repair the collapsed part within ten days."
Cui Quan was stunned, looking at a large section of the city wall, "My lord, how is this possible, at least it will take a month."
"Why are you so stupid? If the repair is not good, the delayed construction period will be blamed by the superiors, and we will surely die. From now on, we will work overtime and no one can rest!"
Cui Quan also knew that he was filling his own pocket, and the building materials used were too bad, which led to this result.
If the higher-ups came to investigate, they would surely die.
Facing thousands of civilian husbands, Cui Jian said angrily, "It's all because of you stealing, raping, and playing tricks. You didn't work hard enough to achieve today's results. From now on, everyone can't rest. If you can't repair it, cut it down first." the heads of you mudlegs."
Yuan Tan has been watching from the dark.
At this time, a sigh came from behind, "We are dead."
Looking back, it was an old man.
Although the construction of the Acropolis is not within the scope of Yuan Tan, he also knows some things.
Not to mention this old man in his fifties or sixties, he is not allowed to come if he is over forty years old.
This is expressly stipulated.
"Why did uncle say that?"
"Even if you don't stop at twelve hours a day, it is impossible to repair it within ten days. You must know that the transportation of stone materials is very difficult, but it doesn't mean that you can use it if you have strength."
The old man seemed to see through life and death, "At that time, these officials will say that we are sabotage and kill people to take the blame. You young people have too little experience, and I have seen many such things."
"Why don't you go to the police?"
"Report to the officer? Hehe, young man, you are still too young."
At this time, more than a dozen young people came to look for the old man, "Old Qi, that Cui guy is looking for you everywhere."
"Old Qi is one of the leaders of our slaves."
"Slave? Don't say such negative words." Qi Lao said, "I was originally the Commandant of Yecheng during Emperor Ling's time. I brought people from my hometown to work here on my own initiative. First, I paid some wages for each family. Second, It's to help the Yuan family."
"If you want to hate it, you hate that supervisor surnamed Cui. Since the Yuan family took over here, especially the eldest son, the life of our people is much better than before."
"If there is a chance, I still have to join the Shence Army and kill the enemy to make meritorious service. Only in that way can the family be guaranteed."
Mr. Qi and the others left.
Yuan Tan felt that what Yuan Shang was doing?
