Chapter 2270 collusion to seize the memorial archway
State government office.
While Yamazaki and Mrs. Long were still on the road, the news had already reached the government office, so frightened that the state official Liang Wenmao's face changed color.
Just kidding, a large number of weapons were secretly made for rebellion, and the second group of people to be questioned were local officials.
Although Jiaozhou is close to the sea and they have no control over matters on overseas islands, this is not the reason.
There are a large number of privately forged weapons in the territory, and there are only three consequences for Shangguan.
He completely neglected his duties, was dismissed from office, imprisoned pending trial, and finally exiled.
After receiving benefits and being deceived and connived, the family was ransacked and imprisoned. The officials would definitely ask for execution, and the family might just be exiled.
It is known that the accomplices in privately forging weapons are at least the Yi tribe.
…
The state official Liang Wenmao asked again and did not find out. He just said that there was no real evidence.
I was so anxious that I heard that Mrs. Long had arrived with the mountain man, so I immediately went to greet him. However, after I left the room, I forced myself to calm down and sent the housekeeper to pick him up.
Not in the lobby of the Yamen, nor in the main hall of the home, but in the side hall in the garden, which is less formal and allows more room for maneuver when speaking.
…
Garden side hall.
"The people from the mountains are attending to your lordship, and the grass and trees in the rivers and lakes are not polite enough. Please forgive me."
Yamazaki performed the scholar's ritual, that is, bowing down to worship, which made the state official Liang Wenmao feel much more relaxed.
"No formalities, please sit down. Madam Long, please sit down too. No need to be formal."
"Thank you, sir."
…
The tea was served, the servant stepped back and continued talking.
Yamazaki elaborated on the killing of Lu Tiezhang, but Master Liang only cared about the evidence.
"Sir, all the evidence has been lost in the ocean, and there is no way to investigate it."
"ah?"
"This is how your majesty writes to your majesty. What your majesty wants is just a word in your letter."
"What to say?"
"Shipping Dongping Mansion, King Dongping rebelled."
"Hiss!" Mr. Liang and Longyuan Capital shuddered.
Yamazaki held up his hand and said, "All the kings in the world are moving. The king of Southwest is holding back. It's normal for King Dongping to be unable to sit still, but he lacks weapons."
"It's not surprising at all that he would send people to search for minerals and forge weapons on the southern islands."
"Usually, he smuggles some soldiers back and digs caves to hide them, which is enough for private soldiers."
"No matter how much, the secret will be revealed easily."
"But if there is an uprising, a large number of weapons will definitely need to be assembled immediately."
"There are a lot of weapons on the island, but there is no way to transport them out."
"And it must be transported together to be useful. Otherwise, if this side is exposed and everyone is empty-handed over there, how can we fight a war? Will we risk death?
"That's why Lu Tiezhang wants the Long family fleet. Because the Long family fleet is large and everyone knows about it, it won't be conspicuous when it moves."
Master Liang held the teacup and thought about it, "What you said is conclusive, and I think it makes sense, but it's just that there is no real evidence, and it's difficult for me to handle it."
Yamazaki held up his hand and said, "Sir, there is no real evidence for the rebellion."
"Even if your Excellency finds an island at sea where weapons are made, and finds the handwriting of King Dongping, but if King Dongping insists that it is a forgery, Your Majesty will not be able to do anything to him."
"Even if all the weapons are shipped to Dongping Mansion, as long as King Dongping does not raise a flag of rebellion, there is no way to convict him of selling weapons."
"To put it bluntly, whether the rebellion is true or false depends entirely on His Majesty's decision."
"Your Majesty thinks that King Dongping can be used to perform surgery, that is."
"Your Majesty feels that it is not the right time, so he will scold you and say that you are troublesome."
"Your Majesty is wise and will not criticize you harshly."
"If your majesty is afraid that your majesty will investigate the crime and not retaliate, then your majesty will wait for your majesty's spies to pass the news back. After your majesty knows it, but has not yet waited for your memorial, then what will your majesty think of you? Can't you figure it out?"
"Uh..." Mr. Liang suddenly started to sweat.
The hands of the leader of the Dragon Court were also full of sweat. This man's resourcefulness was truly terrifying.
Yamazaki handed over his hand again, "If you feel uneasy, sir, you can send me to investigate and find out about this matter."
"That's very good!" Mr. Liang blurted out.
Yamazaki handed over his hand and said, "I won't share it with you if you have a fortune in the archway."
"No, no, no." Mr. Liang smiled.
Because Yamazaki is greedy for money, this is good. No one is perfect. Only people with preferences and weaknesses are easy to deal with.
The leader of the Long Yuan secretly lamented that without spending a penny, he was able to secure the state official and determine the ownership of the fortune-tight archway.
If this isn't awesome, I don't know what is.
…
After Yamazaki received the two secret letters handwritten by the governor and the memorial arch documents, he left.
The document confirms that the archway belongs to him.
A secret letter stated that there were many overseas islands in Jiaozhou Prefecture, and Mr. Liang heard that there was something unusual, so he secretly visited the islands with the people in the mountains, so that he could do it expediently.

A secret letter stated that the people in the mountain could continue to investigate the archway and use the operation of the archway to listen to more information, so that they could do things cheaply.
With these two letters, it was justifiable for Yamazaki to kill Lu Tiezhang and take charge of the Tongda Archway.
Mr. Liang also felt relieved and wrote a letter to the emperor, stating that someone had found out that someone was transporting a large number of weapons to Dongping Mansion, and it was suspected that they were going to be handed over to King Dongping.
…
After leaving the Yamen, turn around the archway.
By this time, the news of the accident at Cai Luck Tongda Archway had spread.
The story of a hero rescuing a beautiful woman is deeply popular among people, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it is still being passed on.
Ryuuin attracts the most attention, and Yamazaki also becomes the focus, with people pointing fingers wherever he goes.
Flower protectors also appeared on the road, and all of them complained that the leader of the Dragon Court did not treat them as friends. They went to the Caiyun Tongda Archway to do errands and did not call them for help.
All of them are handsome and handsome, but unfortunately, all of them just come to take a photo and then run away, obviously because they are afraid that their wives at home will come to check on them.
As for the help, it was obviously just a talk after the fact and not taken seriously. It is no wonder that the leader of Longyuan only brought Master Guan Erya with him.
In comparison, the seemingly unreliable Guan Eryafuzi is the most reliable.
…
The other side.
Lu Tiezhang's true companions and conspirators in the rebellion gathered together.
What should I do? Without the financial support of Lu Tiezhang, they would not be able to maintain the expenses on the foundry island.
Mining, blacksmithing.
Thousands of people can eat, drink, and eat for the time being, but what will happen in the future?
What's more important is cover. If they spend money to buy it, their secret will be exposed soon. If they become pirates, it won't last long.
If killing the mountain people can successfully bring back the archway, they will do it without hesitation.
But as the mountain man said, once he dies, the archway will be taken over by the government, and it will be even more difficult for them then.
I have no choice but to send a message back.
Be patient and wait for instructions.
…
The other side.
Yamazaki returned to the archway and immediately dealt with the matter of Diling Academy and released all the detained students.
They lost money and then got drunk and caused trouble. They didn't expect that it would lead to such a big incident.
After the leader of Longyuan thanked them, he took Guan Erya and led the students away in a hurry.
Yamazaki thought about it and said nothing more. He wanted to get down to business first.
Seeing that no one was around, Shan Dai came over and joked, "Brother, how does it feel when a hero saves a beauty?"
Yamazaki smacked his lips, "Of course it's very good, but it's a pity that the beauty is old and has too many things on her mind. I'm afraid she won't think about getting married or anything."
