Chapter 097: Two Counties, One Order
After capturing Han Fengying, County Magistrate Gao immediately changed his strategy of setting up an ambush to capture the prisoner, and asked the Shengtang County Lieutenant to quietly move into Wujin County with his original troops.
The county could easily see that this made Cui Jianfeng's action of using the county magistrate of the prosperous Tang Dynasty to govern Wucheng as a county magistrate failed again.
"This old bastard is really difficult to deal with." Through Sun Xiaogang's aerial reconnaissance, Cui Jianfeng has locked the specific scope of activities of Wucheng County Yamen and is planning to let the people led by the two county captains misunderstand each other and kill each other.
Unexpectedly, before he conveyed his attention to Wucheng, the situation in Wucheng County had changed.
"The people we saw a few days ago are no longer on the road from the crime scene to Wucheng County." Sun Xiaogang reminded Cui Jianfeng.
"I guess I visited him a few days ago and made him suspicious. He changed his tracking to arrest, arrested Han Fengying and withdrew the personnel." Cui Jianfeng said: "I can see that this old guy is too suspicious.
, it changes its approach at the slightest sound of phoenix, which is difficult to figure out."
"Then where are his men and horses?" Sun Xiaogang asked.
"Can you check the surveillance records of the past few days before that day? See where those people went."
"Okay." Sun Xiaogang immediately looked through his surveillance records and found that the people he saw a few days ago rode away south.
"Have you found it?" Cui Jianfeng asked impatiently after waiting for a while.
"It seems to be going south."
"That's right." Cui Jianfeng thought thoughtfully and said with a smile, "It seems like this old bastard also saw what I was thinking."
"You mean that he has discovered your purpose of coming to Huainan Road?"
"It's hard to say now, but he may have seen our intentions and adopted a strategy of treating the other person the same way we did."
"Don't always be so formal that people won't understand what you mean." Sun Xiaogang became anxious.
"I mean, what the old man did was the opposite strategy. In other words, if I went north, he would go south."
"I understand, you mean that he transferred his troops to Wuqing?"
"Yes."
"Then what are you going to do next?"
"I was wondering if I could make a fake imperial edict and transfer the old guy out of Shengtang County?" Cui Jianfeng smiled: "Just transfer him to Wucheng County."
"Don't take this joke too seriously. Forging the emperor's decree is a capital crime." Chen Yuntian happened to be at Cui Jianfeng's residence. After hearing Cui Jianfeng's words, he thought it was a joke.
"You are a fourth-rank official in the imperial court. Why don't you understand that the appointment and removal of seventh-rank county magistrates are recommended by state governors or Taoist envoys, reviewed and approved by the Ministry of Personnel, and reviewed and approved by the emperor? It cannot be said to be an imperial decree.
." Cui Jianfeng said with a smile.
"But the approval process is not that easy to get, and it is also difficult to copy it." Chen Yuntian said seriously.
"That's okay," Sun Xiaogang smiled: "As long as we get a county magistrate appointment document and send it to the Kuiper Belt Engineering and Technology Department, we can make it exactly the same."
"I'm afraid that if it's done, the old guy won't believe it, and he might send a 800-mile trip to the officials to ask for help." Cui Jianfeng looked embarrassed.
"Then what is there to worry about? If he sends an urgent letter eight hundred miles away, we will follow it with our eyes, intercept his letter in the middle, and then send him a reply in the name of the Ministry of Civil Affairs after a while." Chen Yuntian added.
road.
"Then let's give it a try." Cui Jianfeng finally made up his mind.
"Aren't you asking for trouble by transferring that old guy to Wucheng?" Chen Yuntian asked puzzledly.
"My original purpose is to squeeze out people like Lu Hechang and Zheng Mingjie who have always been against us from Jiangnan Road, but this old county magistrate seems to be different from them. Let's find a way to exchange them first," Cui Jianfeng said.
"Well, let's try again. Let's just find a way to kill that Zheng Mingjie." Chen Yuntian smiled.
"Ding him? What ding? What's the use of dinging him?" Cui Jianfeng asked in confusion.
"When we swapped those two, we first asked Magistrate Gao to go to Wucheng to take over the official position of Magistrate Zheng, and then we asked Zheng Mingjie to go to Shengtang County. We stopped him halfway to prevent him from taking over. Then we sent him to Shengtang County.
Zheng Mingjie's famous proposal sent a message to Shengtang County Saint, asking him to continue to listen to County Magistrate Gao and act before Magistrate Zheng arrived." Chen Yuntian said with a smile.
"What's the point of this?" Cui Jianfeng was still confused.
"Let the old man be busy between the two counties." Chen Yuntian said with a smile: "He doesn't know the truth or the lie. He can't make mistakes on both sides. He should understand this. When something like this happens, it is natural for the old man to become suspicious.
If he becomes suspicious, he will send a letter to Luoyang or his colleagues to find out the authenticity, but we only need to monitor him closely. As soon as he sends a letter to Luoyang or his colleagues, we will intercept it and give him a false letter, leaving him with nothing to do."
"This is a good idea." Cui Jianfeng nodded: "We can use Hu Yuan to mislead him and give him the illusion, and then create some noise for him at both ends, making it difficult for him to look at the beginning and the end, and make mistakes while he is busy."
"Didn't you just say that the old man was difficult to deal with?" Sun Xiaogang thought for a moment and said, "What if he went to find his colleagues in person and asked them to go to Luoyang to inquire, wouldn't the secret be revealed?"
"Don't you have clairvoyance? Just keep a close eye on his whereabouts. Once you find out that he is sending someone a letter, intercept him and send him a false letter."
"But with so many people coming in and out of the county government office, how can we monitor it? Who knows who he handed the letter to and took it out. I don't think it will work." Sun Xiaogang shook his head, saying that it was not possible.
"Don't worry about this for now. Let's give it a try according to Chen Yuntian's idea. However, let Sun Xiaogang do it. This will leave the old man with things that are caused by aliens from outside the world, not us."
"Okay." Sun Xiaogang said.
"If the old man believes it is true, then the matter is done. However, the old man is too suspicious. After receiving the transfer order, he may inquire through his staff or ask the officials with an urgent official letter eight hundred miles away. In that case, our efforts will fail.
Yes." Cui Jianfeng said.
"It's okay. First, let Mr. Qiu ask the Kuiper Space Headquarters Engineering Technology Research Center to copy the personnel transfer order according to our requirements. Once the copy is sent, we can expedite it to Magistrate Gao through 800 miles." Sun Xiaogang said.
"That's all we can do." Cui Jianfeng said.
After receiving Cui Jianfeng's message, Qiu Siyuan immediately asked Jonson Jackson to send a miniature flying saucer to copy the appearance of the official's transfer order and the handwriting designed by Cui Jianfeng. Because Cui Jianfeng and others were important officials in the court, they all knew the style of the official's transfer order.
, so it is not difficult for the Kuipers to imitate it.
The copy text was sent shortly after. Cui Jianfeng immediately sent his men to implement it after receiving it. He first sent a transfer order to Zheng Mingjie.
After receiving it, Zheng Mingjie believed it to be true, and immediately handed over his work to the county magistrate as required in the cover letter, and then left for Huainan Road with two of his confidants to take up the post.
Anyway, Lu Hechang has been transferred there. It was all caused by Fan Zhendong's lies. They have all been transferred to Huainan Road. Now he has been transferred. What's suspicious? It's logical.
As soon as Zheng Mingjie left Wucheng, another transfer order was sent to Magistrate Gao.
The old county magistrate was surprised. He looked at the transfer order suspiciously for a long time. He also obtained the appointments and transfer orders issued by the Ministry of Personnel from the chief clerk, and compared them repeatedly. He always felt that there was something suspicious in them.
Why is this happening? Just when I sent someone to Wucheng County to handle the case, I was transferred to Wucheng. Is it really such a coincidence?
But there was nothing wrong with the transfer order in front of him. He thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't feel relieved. Finally, he wrote a letter and sent a government official to go out quietly in the dark and stay for a night in an inn on the north side of the county.
, the next day, he took the letter and ran to the eight-hundred-mile express station on Pegasus.
Unexpectedly, Sun Xiaogang had already followed Cui Jianfeng's request and used sky eyes to clear the roads leading to the eight hundred mile express station in several directions around Shengtang County. Cui Jianfeng also watched the monitor intently, fearing that the old traitor would slip.
County Magistrate Gao used another trick to deceive himself and get through.
In this way, as soon as the county government approached the 800-mile express station, Sun Xiaogang quickly knocked him out with a weak laser, then used a small-eyed mechanical arm to pull out his letter, and then dragged him away from the road with a small flying saucer prepared in advance.
Put him on a steep slope and notify Chen Yuntian to come and take him away.
"This old guy is really smart. He doubts everything." Cui Jianfeng shook his head helplessly.
County Magistrate Gao was still hesitant. He wanted to wait a few days for a reply from the officials before leaving. But then he thought about it. The officials received all kinds of letters from all over the Tang Dynasty every day. How could a letter like his be accepted?
Do you take it seriously?
After much deliberation, he finally had no choice but to call the county magistrate, complete the handover as required in the cover letter, and then leave for Wucheng.
As usual, the county sent two government officials to escort him to his appointment. He was gloomy and silent all the way.
But who would have expected that just after the county magistrate sent away the county magistrate, "higher authorities" sent another appointment: the new county magistrate Zheng Mingjie was unable to take office on time due to business reasons, so he postponed his departure for two months. During this period, the post of county magistrate was
Gao Zhao was still appointed as the county magistrate, and the county magistrate acted on his behalf.
After seeing this, the county magistrate was secretly happy. After all, he could be the master of Shengtang County for nearly two months.
"How can you be joking like this?" Qiu Siyuan felt funny after hearing what Zhu Guangcai said.
