Chapter 91 Pressing Step by Step (Part 1) 3/3
This day was generally calm.
The sun was also bright and the temperature rose a little. Although I still felt a little chill, it was undoubtedly a very peaceful day for Changping, who was in troubled times, so calm that everyone felt panic.
Nothing happened in the county government, everything is operating normally.
In Changping Bafang, all the thugs who used to hang out on the street seemed to have disappeared.
Even the fewer stray dogs on the street than before, which also made Changping County shrouded in a strange atmosphere.
Yang Shouwen became even more idle, and he didn't leave the door and didn't step into the door.
He first told stories to Youniang and Qingnu, and in the afternoon he returned to the study to write and draw, and didn't know what he was doing.
As for Abusjeddah, it is like a non-existent ghost.
Except for practicing guns with Yang Shouwen in the morning, he spent almost all day in the room.
In the entire Yang Mansion, perhaps only Youniang would run to talk to him. But most of the time, he listened without expression, listened to Youniang's words, and listened to Youniang's story about "Journey to the West". Apart from that, he ignored anyone.
A day passed quietly.
After nightfall, Yang Shouwen was helping Yang clean up when suddenly he heard a loud bang outside.
He hurried over and saw Yang Chenglie coming in from outside with a pale face and walking straight into the living room.
"Why did Alang come back so early today?"
Song came forward and took the Broken Dragon Sword from Yang Chenglie.
Yang Chenglie sat down on the couch without saying a word.
Yang Shouwen walked in, took the food plate from Yang's hand, came to Yang Chenglie, and then gently placed the food plate on the table.
He winked at Song, and Song immediately understood what he meant, quietly withdrew, and closed the door.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Yang Shouwen asked with a smile: "I looked angry, but I was plotted against me again?"
Yang Chenglie's face darkened and he stared at Yang Shouwen and said, "You unfilial son, can you be plotted against me? Are you very happy?"
"almost."
"You..." Yang Chenglie pointed at Yang Shouwen, but he couldn't get angry.
After a long time, he waved his hand and said to himself: "Forget it, you always see the flaws."
His face calmed down a little, Yang Chenglie took a bite of porridge and suddenly said, "By the way, you asked Lao Hu to spread the message that there were more people at home? Can you believe it? I don't want a Guan Hu to appear, which will make me embarrassed in the end."
"The man from Gai Laojun is good at it and can come in handy."
"Old Jun's people... Now we are grasshoppers tied to a line, and I believe he won't plot against me at this time.
By the way, Huang Qi’s matter has been resolved?"
"It has been solved, it was done by Abusjdah."
"Abusjeddah...Does the thunderbolts give the man?"
"Dad, do you know him?"
Yang Chenglie shook his head and said, "I don't know him, but I know that Abus is a large clan of the Western Turks. He was divided into two branches, one nomadic Hexi and the other belonging to Ashinahelu. Later, Ashinahelu was destroyed, and the Abus people would not know where to go. If he were Abus people in Hexi, it would not have been possible here.
Well, that is the Doroschon Abus people. After Helu was killed, his troops were wandering around, and they didn't expect to appear here."
Yang Shouwen couldn't understand Yang Chenglie's words, such as Duroschuan, and Ashinahelu, he had never even heard of it.
So, he was too lazy to ask, but turned the subject and said, "Dad, why are you plotting against me?"
Yang Chenglie glanced at him and snorted coldly.
He ate a piece of waxed mutton and said after a moment: "Lu Yongcheng doesn't know how to touch Mr. Li. The old sick man has been looking at the worldly affairs for the past few years, but today he suddenly appeared in the county government office and was in charge of government affairs."
"so……"
Yang Chenglie gritted his teeth and said, "The old man said that there are more and more refugees outside the city and need to be rectified well.
He also asked me to go out of the city to guard the refugee camp from tomorrow, and to thoroughly check whether there are Jingnan Army spies. You said, isn’t this old man causing trouble for me? If he hadn’t received the benefits of Lu Yongcheng, how could he come forward?”
Yang Shouwen was a little confused and asked in surprise: "Dad, are you talking about that old man?"
"Of course it's that old man Li Shi."
Li Shi is the magistrate of Changping County.
Speaking of which, Li Shi came to Changping almost at the same time as Wang He.
In terms of qualifications, Li Shi is much deeper than Wang He; in terms of experience, he has been more experienced in the yamen for many years. Unfortunately, he does not have the halo of the Taiyuan Wang family, so that when the fake Wang He came to Changping with the Wang family's children, Li Shi could only retreat.
Compared with that, Li Shi did not dare to rebel with Wang He.
Compared with that, Lu Yongcheng and Yang Chenglie have been in Changping for many years, almost like iron buckets, and they cannot allow Li Shi to intervene.
As a result, Li Shi's seat became very embarrassing.
In name, he was the second-in-command of Changping, but in fact, what about it? His orders even walked out of the public housing. The entire Changping County could not allow him to reach into the office. In a blink of an eye, Li Shi was about to reach the age of retirement. Sitting at home every day seemed to be leisurely and contented on the surface, but in fact his desire for power had reached its extreme.
In the last two years, we have to get some benefits no matter what.
Humanity means that geese leave their voices, and people leave their reputations. How can one be an official for life willingly leave the stage?
And now, Lu Yongcheng is willing to provide him with an opportunity.
In fact, there is no need to worry too much about the twists and turns in this place to guess a rough idea.
In the past, if there was a fake king He who could check and balance Lu Yongcheng, Yang Chenglie was of course not afraid. But now, Wang He has been confirmed to be an impostor and his whereabouts are unknown. Almost all the power of Changping County falls into Lu Yongcheng's hands. Well, Lu Yongcheng is only half a level higher than Yang Chenglie. To be honest, even if Lu Yongcheng is in charge, Yang Chenglie may not be afraid of him.
But now Li Shi jumped out...
That was the serious second-in-command, and even Yang Chenglie's boss.
It doesn't matter if Yang Chenglie fights against Lu Yongcheng, but if he fights against Li Shi again, the provincial capital will feel a grudge.
After Yang Shouwen figured out the twists and turns, he felt relieved.
"Father, it seems that Lu Yongcheng can't wait to control Changping, and even pulled County Chief Li out."
"yes!"
Yang Chenglie gently rubbed his temples, revealing a look of worry.
"What exactly do Lu Yongcheng want to do? He is just a small chief clerk of Changping, and he has no chance of controlling Changping. This guy is a smart man and should be very clear about this. But now he is pressing forward step by step, as if he wants to monopolize Changping's power.
