Zhou Sui's home base is in Pingyuan County. Once he hides in the mountains, it is like water flowing into a river. It is not easy to find him, let alone destroy him.
So Li Xiao pursued Zhou Sui all the way and wouldn't let go.
Marquis Zhongyong led 10,000 soldiers from Xiaoqi Camp and also pursued him. Xu San led 300 soldiers to pursue Zhou Sui.
The King of Beihai looked at Governor Xie again: "Beihai County stayed in Dong Yixin this time to survive the disaster. I beg you to trouble me, Governor Xie, to take over the task of calming and appeasing the people from the east."
Xie Junshou went to cross his legs to answer the question.
Speaking of which, the stability and stability outside Beihai County this time can be attributed to the decisiveness and wisdom of the King of Beihai. Take the eastern grain merchants first. If the people are not hungry, they will not panic and hide at home. Those who want to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble
The rogue gangsters were also swept away.
The real unlucky ones are the grain merchants in Beihai County.
The small grain merchants were timid and handed over the grain early and barely got their capital back. Two of the big grain merchants were killed, and all the grain was "requisitioned", and the family business was destroyed.
Huo Hengwen refused to thank the county governor's in-laws, and the King of Beihai showed mercy, so he spared Huo Hengwen his life. However, Huo Hengwen witnessed the murder of two grain merchants with his own eyes, and was so frightened that he became seriously ill. All the grain in Jianzhitun was taken away
Now, Huo Hengwen's illness is getting worse and he has been lying in bed.
Bah! You deserve it!
Sheriff Xie didn't sympathize with his in-laws at all, but instead regretted and regretted it. That month, he made a mistake and married his daughter to the short-sighted and stupid Huo family.
After Commander Xie left Beihai Prince's Mansion, he went to the government office and stayed there for half a month, before returning to Xie's Mansion after dark.
Mrs. Xie came over with a gloomy look on her face and said angrily in a low voice: "My concubine Mingyue kindly sent someone to visit the Huo family, but the stepmother of the Huo family actually made sarcastic remarks. Is this really maddening to death?"
Sheriff Xie frowned and said coldly: "Huo Hengwen had stored a large amount of grain before, hoping to take advantage of the war to make a fortune. It turned out that the grain was requisitioned by the prince, and his life was almost handed over to the prince's palace, and the family business was reduced by 80%. He was full of resentment.
Does that mean his anger has spread to his in-laws?"
"If you don't ask me, sir, he would have died in the palace a long time ago." Madam Xie said bitterly: "Ignore those ungrateful red-eyed wolves."
Then, he sighed again: "Had I known that, I really shouldn't have betrothed Jiaojiao to Huo Yan that month. If it happened like that, Jiaojiao would have a difficult confinement in the Huo family."
Sheriff Xie said calmly: "That's no need to worry. If he serves as the Sheriff for a month, the Huo family will not dare to treat his daughter harshly."
Mrs. Xie saw that Governor Xie's expression was not good, so she did not dare to talk any more. Instead, she whispered: "The prince's visit to the capital before made people anxious. More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the news coming from the capital is not good. It seems that the news coming from the capital is not good.
, the crown prince has established a firm foothold in the capital."
Commander Xie is in the officialdom and knows much more than Mrs. Xie: "The Crown Prince has a good relationship with the East Palace and is trusted by the Crown Prince. If Ru Ming is training in the new army, he will command many of his disciples. I'll wait and see. In the future, Crown Prince
I’m afraid the future will not stop here.”
Mrs. Xie was startled: "What future does the Crown Prince have?"
Sheriff Xie refused to say anything more and stepped into the study.
…
"Your Majesty," Commander Beihai King quickly walked into the study and presented the letter in his lap: "The Crown Prince has sent a letter from the capital."
King Beihai immediately relaxed his brows and stretched his legs to receive the letter.
After reading only half of the letter, King Beihai's face was already filled with joy, and he immediately got up and went to Princess Beihai's bedroom.
Princess Beihai looked surprised: "Your Majesty, the moon is shining brightly on his face. Could it be that there is some happy event?"
King Beihai grinned, said nothing, and stuffed the letter in his lap into his old wife's lap.
Princess Beihai opened the letter in confusion, read a few lines, and immediately became happy: "Hey, Yue Ya'er is happy. Isn't that a huge happy event?"
"When Yue Chunsheng asked to marry Yue Ya'er, he said that Yue Ya'er was good-looking and blessed. Sure enough, Yue Ya'er was very lucky, and she was happy when she entered the house."
The Princess of Beihai was beaming with joy, mouthing a crescent moon, not to mention her affectionate energy.
Beihai Wang smiled and teased: "Didn't I always miss Yue Yaer and be very dissatisfied before?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Princess Beihai smiled and glared at King Beihai: "When did he become dissatisfied? With such a good daughter-in-law, he wakes up laughing in his dreams."
Princess Beihai was happy for a while, then sighed: "Yue Ya'er is pregnant, and there is no elder around to take care of her. He is really worried. Please send someone to pick up Yue Ya'er and come back to raise the baby!"
The King of Beihai glanced at his old wife: "Don't I really want Yue Ya'er to leave the child in Beihai County? Give up that idea as soon as possible and don't cause trouble."
The Princess of Beihai was said to be obsessed with things and felt a little guilty: "He wanted to help take care of the children, so why did he cause trouble?"
"It's already very difficult for the young couple to be in the capital, and they have to deal with requests both inside and outside the palace." Beihai King said in a low voice: "I was really worried about it, so I sent someone to take a look and send some food to the capital. Yue Yaer was pregnant with her.
She's pregnant, so don't make her run around. She'll have a good time on the road, and it won't be too late to regret it later."
Princess Beihai responded politely.
Just as he was shutting up, someone came to report again: "Prince and concubine, Master Zhao is back."
Beihai County was hit by bandits, and Zhao Yuanming's brother and his clan members disappeared. Mingyue finally returned.
The King of Beihai was overjoyed and immediately said: "I will go to the Zhao family now."
An hour later, King Beihai arrived at Zhaojiafang in person.
Zhao Yuanming, who had lost a lot of weight, smiled bitterly and talked about his encounters over the past month: "...After entering Qingzhou, they heard that a group of bandits from Zhou Sui had surrounded Beihai County. They had to stop and stay in an inn.
.Beihai County sealed the city gates. They didn’t know what was going on outside the city. They were so anxious that they couldn’t do anything. It wasn’t until Beihai County won the battle and reopened the city gates that they were able to come back.”
The King of Beihai smiled and said: "Hurry up and send a letter to the capital to report that you are safe. Those Yuezi have difficulty communicating, so Chunsheng and Yue Yaer are worried and anxious for some reason."
Zhao Yuanming smiled and said: "He has already written it. It's time to ask the prince to send someone to send it to the capital."
King Beihai raised his eyebrows and smiled: "There is a happy event that I didn't know about! Chun Sheng came back with a letter to announce the good news. Yue Ya'er is already pregnant."
Zhao Yuanming was surprised at first, but then he was overjoyed: "Is that a big happy event? No, he has to give a few instructions in the letter."
King Beihai laughed.
…
Li Xiao hasn't slept for three days in a row.
He was riding a horse, his red tears filled with the anger of grief. The scout who explored the road came back and rode a fast horse to report: "To report to the general, Zhou Sui and his group fled in three directions."
After Li Ji died in battle, the soldiers of the Jiaodong Army naturally obeyed Li Xiao's orders.
Li Xiao coldly ordered: "Divide the troops into three groups and leave no one alive."
