Chapter 602 Shi Yunting: Who said I was pretending to be sick!
He looked at Shi Yunting, who jumped off his horse and walked toward him with his men.
He subconsciously moved his body back, but his whole body was so weak that he couldn't struggle.
Shi Yunting was about to say something, but then he was choked back by the faint stench that suddenly filled the air. What bothered him the most was that at that moment, he actually swallowed subconsciously...
Protruding!
"I bother--"
Shi Yunting spat and waved his hand with a disgusted look on his face.
"take away--"
After saying that, he got on his horse and left without looking back.
Originally, he wanted to warn this bitch not to commit suicide, but seeing Wang Gang's disgusting character just now, he felt it was completely unnecessary.
"For generations to come, you are a distinguished family in the world——"
The sound floated from far away, which made Wang Gang, who had just struggled up from the ground and was so embarrassed and angry at his cowardice and performance just now, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in, could not wait to hit him to death on the ground.
But after taking courage several times, I still didn't dare.
My Wang family has been a distinguished family for hundreds of years, with disciples and former officials all over the world. Five surnames and seven hopes are connected with each other. I just secretly sold some refined steel to Tubo. Even if the Dog Emperor wants to harm himself, he must consider the reaction of the government and the public.
Things may or may not turn out differently——
"Wait a minute, I need to change my clothes first——"
Wang Gang suppressed the shame and anger in his heart and looked at the officers and soldiers who were about to lock him up.
Several officers and soldiers originally wanted to refuse, but they couldn't stand the stinky smell on Wang Gang's body, so they had to look for help at the leading captain not far away. The captain looked at Shi Yunting who had just walked out not far away. Shi Yunting even
Without looking back, he just said a word calmly.
"Let him-"
Although he hates the superiority of the son of the aristocratic family and is disgusted with the softness of this guy, at this moment, he is too lazy and disdain to embarrass himself with such a coward.
People like Wang Gang are no longer a concern. What really needs to be dealt with immediately are Chu Yuanheng's followers who are causing trouble.
Most of these people are elites in the military. If they are not handled well, it will cause a catastrophe.
Hurry up and rush to the top of the city.
Because he had made arrangements in advance, his confidant Colonel was very restrained and did not have a large-scale conflict with the garrison above the city. However, the situation was also very tense. At this moment, the two teams were at war with each other. The situation was already
On the verge of breaking out.
Shi Yunting pushed aside the guards blocking his way and walked out.
The torches on both sides illuminated his slender face, making him look even more solemn.
"I am the governor of Hezhou, Shi Yunting——"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden commotion among the people on the opposite side, and even the leading captains couldn't help but flash their eyes, showing a bit of panic.
Shi Yunting actually appeared!
At this moment, shouldn't he be lying on the bed in the Governor's Mansion, waiting to die?
The situation suddenly changed, and the expressions of several of Chu Yuanheng's confidants suddenly changed, and their hearts hesitated.
Shi Yunting naturally knew that the opportunity was too good to miss, so how could he give them the time to think about it.
"Chu Yuanheng collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. He knew that his crime was unpardonable and he had already been executed. I thought that you and others did not know the inside story and were only used by the thieves. Therefore, I do not want to be implicated anymore——"
Having said this, Shi Yunting's beard trembled and he gave a sharp shout.
"If you don't put down your weapons quickly, do you still want to fight stubbornly against the imperial court?"
As soon as these words came out, the officers and soldiers looked shaken, and they seemed to be ready to put down their weapons.
Several of Chu Yuanheng's confidants had also reacted at this time.
Ordinary soldiers didn't know the situation and gave up resistance. Maybe the court could give them some immunity, but a few of them might not be able to escape the blame. Feeling that the soldiers behind them were already shaken, they suddenly felt worried.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. This person must be colluding with foreign enemies and wants to frame our General Chu - brothers, don't be fooled, come forward with me and kill this officer -"
As he spoke, he shook the weapon in his hand as if he were leading a charge to kill.
"Do you really want to rebel?"
Shi Yunting shouted loudly.
"Even if you don't think about yourself, don't you think about your parents, wife and children at home?"
This sentence completely defeated the last line of defense in the hearts of Chu Yuanheng and his subordinates.
Dang clang——
The sound of weapons falling to the ground was heard.
Moreover, this voice seemed to be contagious and spread quickly.
The faces of several of Chu Yuanheng's confidant lieutenants turned pale for a moment. They hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and threw down the long swords in their hands. The situation was over. If they gave up resistance, they might still die in the end, but they hoped that it would not harm their wives and children.
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Shi Yunting couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You will go back to the camp first and wait for the imperial court's announcement. I will definitely write a letter to Your Majesty to plead for you and make it clear that you were deceived by thieves and made such a big mistake——"
The greatest crisis was resolved, and Chu Yuanheng's group of henchmen were disarmed and put under guard.
Shi Yunting couldn't help but secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
It was really too dangerous just now. If there was a large-scale civil strife or a military rebellion, it would be a disaster. To be honest, even though he was very strong just now, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Just now, if in the chaos, if one or two of them were stunned and shot themselves with an arrow, then it would be like a heifer rolling its eyes - it's the end of the calf.
After dealing with the things at the top of the city, we rushed to the military camp overnight.
Chu Yuanheng has been in Hezhou for many years. Naturally, there are more than just a few of his close men in Chengtou. There must be other members of the army. If left unchecked, there might be some trouble tomorrow.
Therefore, he rushed to the army overnight, directly controlled several of Chu Yuanheng's confidants, disrupted all subordinates, and promoted some of his loyal confidants on the spot to comfort and guard them, and then he was completely relieved.
After finishing all this work, it was already bright.
Shi Yunting sat on the horse and couldn't help but slap his waist.
I couldn't bear to accept it anymore. After only one night of hard work, my body felt like it was falling apart.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Back to the Governor's Mansion, before anyone could sit down, Song Jin, the deputy envoy of the Hezhou Soldiers and Horses Envoy who was sent out to intercept the Wang family's caravan, strode in. This is what happened at the beginning
Duke Guo of Qi secretly wrote a letter, and the trustworthy person he informed was also a key figure in the army he controlled.
"Shishi——"
As soon as Shi Yunting saw Song Jin coming in, his already tired face suddenly became even more depressed. He held on to the table and struggled to get up.
Song Jin quickly stepped forward and supported Shi Yunting with his own hands.
"Prince Shi, there is no need to be polite. You are injured and need a good rest..."
Shi Yunting then sat back down with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect this injury to be so serious. I thought it would be nothing serious after recuperating for so many days. I didn't expect that after running around all night last night, I would end up like this again..."
Song Jin's face suddenly showed a look of solemnity.
It's really admirable that the old governor is still running around like this even though he is injured!
"Thank you for your hard work, Governor Shi——"
"I'm just going through the motions. It's you soldiers who are really doing the hard work. When I submit the letter, I will definitely give you a good thank you - by the way, how is the situation outside..."
Shi Yunting's raised arm suddenly retracted, covering his wound, and let out a soft groan.
"Shishi——"
Song Jin had a look of concern on his face.
"It doesn't matter, just say -"
Song Jin then raised his hand and said.
"I am ashamed. The other party came here. He was very slippery and brought many guards. I was incompetent and could not keep him. However, I have brought back all the tens of thousands of kilograms of refined steel, not less than a kilogram."
!”
Shi Yunting nodded weakly.
"Thank you for your hard work, General Song. You should go down and rest first. Those hundred-refined steel must be preserved well. This is a serious matter and nothing can go wrong..."
"Just don't worry, the governor, the general will know what's appropriate——"
Song Jin looked serious and replied in a deep voice.
"With General Song here, I can rest assured——"
After saying that, he couldn't help but swayed, and the servant next to him quickly stepped forward to support his body.
Shi Yunting obviously had an old injury, so Song Jin naturally couldn't stay any longer, so he had to keep all the questions in his mind. However, after returning, he still deposited tens of thousands of kilograms of refined steel into the Governor's Mansion.
In the treasury, he took his troops back to make corrections. Although there was no large-scale battle, the pursuit for most of the night was hard enough.
The soldiers had breakfast one by one and fell asleep, but Song Jin did not dare to sleep like this. He returned to his tent, steeled himself, and wrote a secret document seriously, describing his situation.
The experiences of the past few days were written down verbatim, sealed with fire paint, and solemnly handed over to his confidants.
"Be sure to hand it over to Duke Qi——"
His men immediately accepted the order and went straight to Chang'an without changing horses along the way.
Not long after Song Jin's secret agent was sent out, a memorial was also received from the governor's office about Wang Gang, the inspector of the Hezhou forecourt, and Chu Yuanheng, the military envoy of Hezhou, colluding with foreigners and attempting to smuggle tens of thousands of kilograms of refined steel.
Set off and rush for 800 miles to Chang'an.
Hezhou has also fallen into a very special period.
The military commander Chu Yuanheng committed suicide out of fear of his crime, and the inspection team Wang Gang was imprisoned. The entire military, political and economic power of Hezhou fell into the hands of Shi Yunting, the governor of Hezhou. This had never happened before in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
.
However, Shi Yunting, who should have been in great glory, fell ill.
An old injury occurred and his condition became critical.
The entire governor's office was filled with the strong smell of medicinal soup all day long. Everyone in the governor's office was in a state of panic. Even the medicine shop outside knew that the governor, in order to capture the thief Wang Gang who was colluding with foreign tribes, was cheating.
, regardless of his seriously injured body, he personally sent troops to quell the disaster, which led to the relapse of old injuries and the news that his condition was critical.
Many people were moved and worried at the same time. When they mentioned Shi Yunting, while expressing admiration, they couldn't help but curse Wang Gang and Chu Yuanheng for being traitors.
For a time, it almost became a fashion in Hezhou.
Governor's Mansion.
Shi Yunting was drinking tea leisurely while playing chess with a middle-aged man with a capable figure.
The middle-aged man is his clan brother named Shi Qing. He has been with him for many years. Although he does not hold any actual position, he actually serves as his confidant.
"Nowadays, people in Hezhou are in a state of flux. It's time for Big Brother to come out to calm people down. Why would Big Brother hide at home and pretend to be sick? What if something goes wrong..."
Shi Yunting pressed a word slowly, then raised his eyes and said angrily.
"Who says I'm pretending to be sick? I'm really sick!"
Shi Qing:……
Have you ever pretended to be sick?
Don't think that I don't know. Last night you fooled around with your beloved maid for most of the night. You're so old and you're not afraid of getting away with it!
However, he also knew that the elder brother didn't want to talk about it, so he changed the topic wisely.
Having been with his elder brother for many years, he believed that he must have a reason to do what he did. Since he didn't understand, he would just do what he was told.
Seeing this, a look of satisfaction flashed through Shi Yunting's eyes.
This clan brother has been with him for so many years, and what he is most satisfied with is this, duty, and knowing how to advance and retreat.
…
"Your Majesty, a secret report from Hezhou——"
Royal study room.
Changsun Wuji took out a secret report and handed it over with both hands with an excited expression.
When Li Shimin saw this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and reached out to take it.
After reading it with a heavy face, he put away the secret report, pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"Tens of thousands of kilograms of hundred-refined steel. If it were in previous years and the court was busy for a whole year, I'm afraid they might not be able to produce so much - the Wang family is really brave..."
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he raised the secret report in his hand.
"In my opinion, Brother Fuji, how should I deal with this Wang family?"
Changsun Wuji was silent for a long time, and then he said in a deep voice.
"Jiaodali Temple will be severely punished according to law——"
Li Shimin turned around and looked at Changsun Wuji, whose eyes were calm.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Shimin nodded slightly, without comment, but suddenly turned around and changed the topic.
"The situation in Hezhou is a bit tricky - this Shi Yunting..."
Li Shimin couldn't help but frown.
At this tense moment, Shi Yunting's old injury relapsed!
If it weren't for this secret report, he wouldn't be able to believe that such a coincidence could happen in this world.
"Over in Hezhou, has Shi Yunting's book been delivered?"
Although this secret report gave a general report on what happened in Hezhou, Song Jin was only the deputy envoy of the military envoy after all. He had no access to many things. Even if it was to besiege the Wang family's caravan, he was only following orders.
Many things are unclear. If you want to understand the whole story, you have to read Shi Yunting's own excerpts.
Just when Li Shimin wanted to arrange for someone to go to the front to see if there were any discounts from Hezhou delivered to him.
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling had already hurried over with a copy of the document.
"Your Majesty, urgent report from Hezhou - Wang Gang, the inspector of the Hezhou forecourt, and Chu Yuanheng, the military envoy, secretly opened the door and allowed the Wang family to smuggle hundreds of refined steel. Fortunately, Shi Yunting, the governor, discovered it in time. Now that the refined iron has been recovered, Chu Yuanheng
Wang Gang committed suicide in fear of crime, and was captured and imprisoned. However, because of running around all night, Shi Yunting, the governor, also relapsed from an old injury and became critically ill. Now no one in Hezhou is in control of the overall situation. Your Majesty, please make an early decision..."
With that said, Du Ruhui stretched out his hands and handed over Shi Yunting's folded book with his own hands.
Looking at Shi Yunting's detailed report, Li Shimin nodded silently in his heart.
It's basically the same as the secret report, just more detailed.
However, at the end of the excerpt, Shi Yunting repeatedly requested the court to send someone to take charge of Hezhou's troops as soon as possible, saying that he was seriously injured and even handling Hezhou's government affairs was already somewhat beyond his capabilities.
Li Shimin breathed a subtle sigh of relief.
This Shi Yunting is not bad, but he is still loyal and reliable!
After thinking for a while, he turned around and looked at the three close ministers in front of him.
"Shi Aiqing has been in Hezhou for many years, right?"
"Your Majesty, it has been nine years since Takeru went there three years ago——"
Changsun Wuji was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and knew these very well.
Li Shimin nodded.
"Well, he has worked hard in Hezhou in the past few years. Now his old injury has recurred and his health is not good. It may not be appropriate to stay in Hezhou anymore. I think I will transfer him back to recuperate for a few days -
"
After thinking for a while, he added.
"When King Wei leaves, will the position of Yongzhou Mu become vacant? Shi Yunting has worked hard in the past few years and is quite capable. In my opinion, when he comes back, I will leave it to him -"
"Your Majesty is wise——"
Hear the string song and know its elegant meaning.
Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji had all been with Li Shimin for many years, so they naturally knew what Li Shimin was thinking and immediately responded in a deep voice.
