Having said this, although Lao Niu still felt that something was wrong, he had no choice but to accept it.
However, just to be on the safe side, Lao Niu finally gave some instructions to Lunzi and asked him to send an order to the two hundred Xuanjia troops resting in the city, telling them not to stay in the city, but to camp here.
After all, there is a Duke, a Marquis, and a general like himself here!
If something happened to people like me, not to mention what a huge loss it would be to the Tang Dynasty, even the face of the imperial court could not afford to lose it!
After receiving Lao Niu's order and taking the military talisman, the idiot didn't waste any time. He mounted his fast horse and rushed back to the county seat. .??.
Just as the fool was galloping on the road, inside the county government office of Anping County.
Wang Mengcai, the county magistrate, was sitting in the lobby, his face turning blue and black at times!
In the hall, the yamen servants, masters and others stood quietly with their hands down, not daring to take a breath.
In the morning, the county magistrate asked them to investigate the matter. They had been investigating for a whole day, but they found almost no useful information. Now when faced with the questioning of the magistrate, they were all as confused as eggplants beaten by frost.
"Hasn't anyone seen such a convoy passing by?" Wang Mengcai rubbed his swollen temples and asked tiredly: "Have you all asked clearly?"
There was a deathly silence in the hall.
Finally, someone couldn't stand the depressing atmosphere and hesitantly answered: "Ask...ask clearly!"
"Have you asked clearly? No!" Wang Mengcai asked again, this time with obvious anger in his voice!
"It's not like there's nothing..."
Someone else replied in a low voice: "Among the people we asked, some said they had seen similar convoys, but when we asked for details, they couldn't explain clearly. To avoid making mistakes, my subordinates did not report it..."
"Oh?" When Wang Mengcai heard this, he frowned, glared at the person who spoke and said angrily: "Since someone said they saw it, then just report it! Why are you still hiding it?"
"Well……"
The person who spoke later was none other than the head of the Anping County government office!
At this time, the squad leader saw that the magistrate was angry and felt helpless. He had no choice but to step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Sir, you don't know, the common people are talking about everything, and my subordinates really have no way to tell! What if this is wrong...
…”
"Wrong? Wrong..." Wang Mengcai's eyes widened angrily. He was about to yell at his subordinates, but unexpectedly, he lost his temper before the words came out of his mouth.
Yes, what should I do if I make a mistake?
In the morning, he had already made a mistake once, mistaking the majestic court cavalry for Goguryeo thieves!
Although in the eyes of Xiao Han and others, this matter is just a small mistake, it is not even worth mentioning!
But for Wang Mengcai, a small county magistrate, this was a huge mistake!
They regard the noble princes and generals as thieves and shut them out! They also want to attack them.
Mom, this is no longer affecting your career, it is directly bringing your career to an end!
Thinking about yesterday, Wang Mengcai was still very high-spirited, thinking that counting on these more than 100 levels of gains, he could push himself to the throne of the prefect.
But it only took one night, and today, this dream was shattered!
A mere gain of more than a hundred levels, for Liu Hongji, who is the Duke of the country, and who is a general,
#Every time verification appears, please do not use incognito mode!
For Niu Jinda of the army, this is nothing!
Which time did he go on an expedition and capture not ten times or a hundred times as much as he did?
All it takes is one casual word to make you fall into an endless abyss!
Therefore, although the heads are still piled up outside, Wang Mengcai is no longer in the mood to ask for credit and rewards from his superiors. He should first think of a way to serve these uncles well, and then deal with those who have some.
Bar!
"Go, go and gather all the people who said you have seen them, and ask them one by one to identify them. This matter was given by the Marquis. You can't be careless or fool around!"
After a while, Wang Mengcai sighed helplessly and waved his hands to let his men disperse.
In fact, Wang Mengcai also knew what the class leader was thinking, which was that it would be better to have one less thing to do than to have one more thing to do!
But can the things that the Marquis told him really be taken away from him?
"God! Tell me, what evil have I done? How could I meet such a marquis..."
His subordinates breathed a sigh of relief in public and hurriedly left the county government office. Wang Mengcai sat alone in the empty government office, looking at the dark beams above his head, and finally couldn't help but complain.
"Master Magistrate! Master Magistrate?"
It was as if God had heard Wang Mengcai's dissatisfaction. As soon as he finished complaining, a clerk rushed in from the outside of the county government gate in a panic.
"what happened!"
Poor Wang Mengcai had been a little nervous due to the continuous news in the past two days. When he saw the panic of his men, he turned pale with fright and hurriedly stood up and asked: "What happened!"
"Master Hou, Master Hou..." The clerk rushed to the front of the hall, pointed outside with sweating profusely and shouted: "Master Hou, he..."
"Master Marquis, what's wrong with him!" Wang Mengcai couldn't hear the word "Master Marquis" the most right now. In addition, this little official was just breathing heavily and couldn't say the following words for a long time. He was so anxious that he almost left the case.
Jump over the table, grab this person's neck, and tell him to spit out everything he knows?
"Master Hou, he sent someone here!"
Finally, the clerk swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and said the next words in one breath: "After that man came back, he transferred all the cavalry in the city!"
"Transfer all the people away?" Wang Mengcai was stunned when he heard this, then his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked again: "Where did they go! But what kind of enemy did they encounter!"
"This..." The little official was in a daze when he was asked. Now after thinking about it, he replied: "It shouldn't be that he encountered an enemy, because that person was not in a hurry to take people away, but let the cavalry take them.
Bring your tent and everything, I think, you should, you should go find the Marquis and the others, right?"
"Ah, looking for Xiao Hou, go to the beach?"
Wang Mengcai was stunned for a moment.
He is a southerner who grew up by the sea. When he came here and lived in Anping County, not far from the sea, he really saw enough of the sea.
Therefore, he really couldn't understand how tempting the sea full of water was to make Xiao Han run away again and again. Even if he encountered a thief, he would not change his joy.
Could it be possible that this guy was a fish in his previous life and now he sees his hometown?
Shaking his head and throwing away this ridiculous thought, Wang Mengcai looked at the clerk attentively again: "Then what? Did he say anything else?"
"No!" The clerk shook his head affirmatively this time: "I didn't say anything!" After saying this, Lao Niu still felt that something was wrong, but he had no choice but to accept it.
However, just to be on the safe side, Lao Niu finally gave some instructions to Lunzi and asked him to send an order to the two hundred Xuanjia troops resting in the city, telling them not to stay in the city, but to camp here.
