Su Fan and his group suddenly appeared under the eyes of the Han Dynasty and suddenly disappeared from under their eyes. Although such arrogant behavior made Liu Hong feel a little unhappy, but because of the important things in the country, it was important.
There are too many other things, all of which involve tens of thousands or even dozens or millions of people's lives. A few hundred people can be considered a trivial matter.
Since it is a small matter, Liu Hong can just put it aside for now. Of course, the investigation must continue.
But this also means that the matter has come to an end, and everyone has turned their attention back to what they should do - making money, getting promoted, giving bribes, accepting bribes, and calculating people.
Therefore, let’s temporarily turn our attention away from this matter, but until Su Fan dies, this matter may not be over.
The wind in winter is always biting. The cold current generated from Lake Baikal pours down along the Mongolian Plateau. One of the important tributaries is along the Luliang Mountains and goes straight to the Xihe River, contributing to the low temperature of the Xihe River.
Winters in the north of the Han Dynasty are usually relatively quiet. The crops in the farmland have been harvested. The remaining rhizomes are either buried in the soil to wait for fermentation to add some fertility to the soil, or burned into plant ash to directly pursue the inorganic salt content.
, but this kind of work is obviously much easier than spring plowing and autumn harvesting, so people still have a lot of free time.
At the same time, due to the temperature, people can only huddle up at home unless necessary and enjoy the warmth from home.
However, since Li Shushi came, the beautiful word tranquility has been cut off from Xihe. Even in winter, various sounds that can even seriously stimulate the auditory system can still be heard in various places in Xihe, leaving tranquility with no room for survival at all.
Whether it is the slogans shouted by the army during training, the cheers, cheers, curses, or various noises from various service industry facilities related to it, whether inside or outside formal or informal stadiums,
Sound, not to mention originally even in winter
The shops in the city, which are never idle during the day, and the markets held every now and then outside the city, converge into a symphony of life that echoes in the winter air. Even without the burden of the fields, this symphony is performed
Stronger and more powerful.
However, in this slightly noisy environment, there is a place that cannot be said to be peaceful but can also be called a pure land in the downtown area. There is the prefecture where Li Shushi lives, a place that is slightly mysterious in the eyes of ordinary people.
place.
Because Li Shushi was a hands-off shopkeeper, the litigation issues that were most likely to be contacted by the people and the prefect's mansion were all handed over to the jurisdiction of the separately established county superintendent's office not far from the prefect's mansion. Old Tong trained security guards there every day and dealt with some civil affairs.
Disputes. Because of this, Old Tong, who is the county supervisor, is very well-known in Xihe. And because he is experienced, fair and honest, and there are some rumors, his reputation in Xihe can be said to be quite high.
high.
As for the work of Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, Wu Luan and others, although it is possible to contact ordinary people, it is still too few, and even if they really need to deal with the people, most of them are officials from the prefecture who go to the people in person.
An investigation was conducted to ensure the accuracy of the first-hand information retrieved. As a result, Li Shushi's prefecture naturally became a very mysterious existence.
However, although the Taishou Mansion is mysterious and rumored to be terrifying, Li Shushi's popularity is not low, because when fighting against the Jie tribe and Xianbei people's attack, Li Shushi personally "directed" everyone on the city wall to fight the enemy bravely. He was also shown at the Xihe Games.
Several times, and at the same time, he often led the prefect's wife, who didn't like to show up but was said to be very beautiful, to do shopping in various markets like an ordinary commoner couple. Of course, at that time, there would usually be one or two people behind the prefect.
A tough guy.
Therefore, Li Shushi's exposure rate is not small. In addition, although the measures to benefit the people were perfected by his subordinates, many were proposed by him, and the prefect is a natural reputation bonus tool. Li Shushi's reputation in Xihe
It can be considered very good. Even in the eyes of some foreigners, Li Shushi's faith and kindness gave him a lot of points and benefited a lot.
And now, this adult is leisurely staying on the fire bed at home, eating the latest dessert developed by Su Xiaololi, and looking at the delicacies of Su Xiaololi, Luo He and Cao Ling, who are having a fierce argument over the crafting methods of the dessert.
The apprentice, feeling the sweet and warm smell coming from the food, couldn't help but sigh: "What a peaceful and peaceful day."
It's just that those who look at the photos of their fiancées on the battlefield and say that they will go back to their hometown to get married after the war usually get a delicious lunch afterwards, or shout to their beloved, "You go first, I'll wait for you."
I will definitely follow you." The little bit player will eventually be a qualified person there forever.
The earthbound spirit, or the little minions who shouted "Not even a bird/ant can fly/climb here". In the blink of an eye, someone rushed in from the place where the animal couldn't pass, and chopped it into pieces according to the director's will.
In many cases, Li Shushi, who said such words, is destined to lose his peace and tranquility today.
"My lord, you must uphold justice this time. Why am I not suitable for my old age..."
Still in the backyard, Li Shushi could hear Cheng Lian's unique loud voice, and his face tightened slightly.
"It's so noisy. It's really a critical moment of research. My thoughts are disrupted by this damn loud voice."
"That's right, I originally found my own idea. By the way, I should use half a catty of fresh Lingnan rice..."
"How can Lingnan rice compare to Jiangnan rice? It has a sweet and greasy taste, is soft and delicious, and has endless aftertaste..."
It seemed that the eating and drinking couple had re-entered the fight, causing Li Shushi next to him to sweat violently.
Putting down the cup of dessert, Li Shushi came to the door of the backyard, only to see Cheng Lianzheng being blocked by Xu Chu with a helpless expression. Although he looked very anxious, it seemed to Li Shushi that Cheng Lian was not a person who didn't know the rules, so
There can only be one explanation for this situation, and that is that he is taking the opportunity to spar with Xu Chu, perhaps wanting to prove his strength as he just said.
"I said Shushan, why are you making so much noise here? Maybe there is someone in Lishi City who can bully you."
Seeing Cheng Lian's aggrieved look being firmly blocked by Xu Chu, Li Shushi unconsciously laughed.
"Have you heard that the Xianbei army has arrived at Yanmen? Everyone is gearing up to get the chance to lead the army on an expedition."
Seeing Li Shushi coming over, Cheng Lian immediately ended the "rivalry" with Xu Chu. Xu Chu still looked businesslike and couldn't tell that he was actually having a high time just now. Anyway, it didn't delay the business, so Li Shushi pretended to ignore it.
.
"You guys, don't underestimate the Yanmen defenders. They are all serious frontier troops. Maybe in a few days we will see the news that the Yanmen defenders defeated the Xianbei army. You are fighting here.
The fight is in vain."
"My lord, you don't know something about this. Yanmen's border troops were really strong before, but since Zhang Wenyuan appeared, with the support of Ding Jianyang, he has been secretly buying Yanmen's border troops to enrich the ranks of Bingzhou governor.
Those border soldiers admire them very much
Fu Wenyuan was brave, and he had helped him openly or covertly in the early years. They were old friends with each other. The price Ding Jianyang offered was very high, so most of the border troops probably followed Ding Jianyang to Luoyang.
.Now these are not enough.”
"Is the imperial court allowing them to do this?" Li Shushi was very surprised by Cheng Lian's revelation. Isn't this poaching the country?
"The imperial court? How could the imperial court know such a thing? The bitter cold at the border is not just talk. There are constant fights between the big guys in the central government, so many border guards were assigned to border guards because they offended them. The prefect felt that
Those big shots can make a contribution to allowing such a guard to obtain sufficient supplies and then go back to Luoyang to settle accounts with them? As long as it is not a military emergency, when encountering such a superior officer, the food and grass will basically be
If we don't have everything ready, if we meet a bold and cruel guy, he will even dare to swallow up the food and grass during the war. As for the soldiers, how can the big shots in the capital know who the soldiers guarding the border are? Only the total number is unknown.
If there is a big change, then everything is easy to talk about. So for the border soldiers, unless they have feelings for each other, why not take this opportunity to find a safer place to stay, and maybe bring more things to the family."
Cheng Lian once served in the Bingzhou Army and also in the border areas, so he knew the things inside quite clearly.
Speaking of which, the Xianbei people's invasion of the south should not be a big trouble in the eyes of Li Shushi and others. After all, the Xianbei people have been completely divided, not to mention the Eastern, Central and Western tribes, which were originally at odds with each other.
It is also so complicated that it would not be too much to call it a piece of loose sand. It is completely impossible to gather together for a large-scale southward invasion like in the past.
But I never thought that the intensity of the attack by the troops invading south this time was even greater than that of Helian. You must know that as early as that time, the veteran of the border army in Yanmen had already been named Ding. Although Yanmen was not the main direction of attack at that time, after a few years,
, the original recruit Danzi should have the temperament of a veteran, not to mention that Yanmen's frontier troops only need to defend.
But in fact, according to the news from the intelligence personnel, the situation in Yanmen County is not optimistic. Although the border guard general and the Yanmen prefect have not sent out an emergency report for help, according to the observations of the intelligence personnel, it is estimated that it is almost there.
.
Although all this information is in the hands of Li Shushi, only Jia Xu and Cao Ling among the senior officials in Xihe know about it, but it seems that the army has already received the news. No, Cheng Lian may have suffered a loss in private, so
Then I had the idea to come to Li Shushi to complain. After all, Li Shushi had to make the final decision when assigning tasks.
Looking at Cheng Lian who said "I am honest and pure" in front of him, Li Shushi couldn't help but lament that his group of subordinates were indeed not fuel-efficient lamps. Although they were rarely used because of the trouble, for them they felt
Interesting things, Li Shushi knew very well how "unscrupulous" these guys were.
Just when Li Shushi was thinking about what words to use to deceive Cheng Lian, he saw Cheng Yu's hurried figure from far away. And the target of that figure was clearly himself.
"My lord, the governor of Yanmen has sent us a request for help, hoping that we can lead troops to rescue him."
