Wait until the leader of the dead soldiers raises his head again.
Li Chengqian had already walked in front of him.
"I thought I could watch a good show, but in the end, I only have so little skill?"
Li Chengqian curled his lips and said to the man who came out first: "Lao Liu, I leave this man to you. I hope to hear something I want to hear. Can it be done in one day?" ??
"Is he like this?"
Lao Liu glanced at the leader of the dead soldiers and said disdainfully: "If it lasts more than an hour, my sign will be smashed."
"good."
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter whether we live or die, just do what you want."
"Yes, Your Highness."
It should be the case that Lao Liu intervenes.
Li Chengqian walked back to the carriage.
Under the surprised gazes of everyone, Li Chengqian raised his hand and said, "Uncle Li, enter the city!"
"drive!"
Li Yu picked up his whip and slapped it on the horse's back, and the carriage drove straight into the city.
…
Qinzhou government office.
More than a dozen people gathered in the hall, looking at each other.
A middle-aged man in a bright red official robe sat at the head of the table, slowly tinkering with his tea cup.
This person was none other than the county magistrate of Qinzhou, Zhang Naikuan.
"My lord."
"Hurry up and think of a solution."
A fair-faced middle-aged man said to Zhang Naikuan: "The prince is already in the city now."
"Why are you panicking?"
Zhang Naikuan took a sip of tea calmly and said, "So what if he is in the city?"
"he……"
"I heard that he came with His Majesty's imperial edict."
The white-faced middle-aged man said: "If anything happens..."
"Nothing unexpected..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Naikuan.
"What we do is clean. Even if he checks, what will he find?"
Zhang Naikuan said slowly: "Just put your heart in your stomach, don't think about anything, and just go about your business with peace of mind."
"But……"
"But what if he finds out? "
The white-faced middle-aged man said: "If we let him find out, our life will not be easy in the future."
"What are you afraid of?"
"Have you forgotten who you are?"
Zhang Naikuan rolled his eyes at the other party and said, "Just because you were fighting the enemy outside Hulao Pass with His Majesty, he can't do anything to you."
"makes sense."
The fair-faced middle-aged man tapped his chest and said, "But I'm just afraid..."
"I told you, don't be afraid, don't panic."
"The blood we shed for His Majesty will not be in vain, let alone."
Zhang Naikuan raised his finger and pointed at everyone in the room and said, "Didn't you see that everyone didn't react at all?"
Hearing this, the white-faced middle-aged man looked around.
Indeed, he was the only one talking non-stop at this time.
After thinking for a while, the white-faced middle-aged man said: "But after all, he came to investigate corruption according to His Majesty's order..."
“Who is corrupt?”
"Are you corrupt?"
Zhang Naikuan tilted his head and looked at the white-faced middle-aged man and said, "Am I corrupt?"
How dare a white-faced middle-aged man accept this?
"No no no."
He waved his hands hurriedly and said, "That's not what I meant."
"Then just wait peacefully and stop talking nonsense."
Zhang Naikuan said with some displeasure: "Your Majesty asked him to come, at most he was just going through the motions and building momentum for him."
"Do you really think he can do anything big?"
"Over the years, he has only made some achievements by relying on his status as the prince. How can we have such real achievements?"
"We are all real people, we have gone through blood and fire, how can we be the same as him?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Naikuan's eyes flashed with contempt and he said: "I want to see what kind of trouble he can stir up with his little ability."
…
the other side.
After entering the city, Li Chengqian did not go to the government office, but instead came to the inn to stay.
Seeing this, Li Yu was a little puzzled.
"Isn't His Highness here to investigate corruption?"
Li Yudao: "Instead of staying in an inn at your own expense, wouldn't it be better to live in a government office?"
"The government office is a den of tigers and wolves."
"How can I live in a place like that with my delicate body and expensive body?"
Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Besides, your Royal Highness is a bohemian and free-spirited person. He has to live in the government office, which is too tiring." ??
After saying that, he didn't care what Li Yu's expression was and walked upstairs.
Although Li Yu was puzzled, he followed him upstairs.
"But it's strange to say that."
"We just made such a big noise at the city gate."
"So far, no one has come to inquire about the situation."
Li Yu shook his head and said, "I really don't know what the magistrates and lieutenants of Qinzhou do for food."
Managing a place must start with maintaining public order.
But what happened just now?
Lao Liu's group of people just barely killed people directly.
But after such a long time, I didn't even see anyone from the officialdom.
What is this thing called?
How do they do things?
Li Chengqian laughed when he heard this.
"My Uncle Li, you really don't understand these people."
"Do you know what kind of people we are in Qinzhou?"
Li Chengqian said seriously: "Let alone a county magistrate or county lieutenant, even if he is a small government servant, nine times out of ten, he is a person with hands and eyes that are as good as the sky."
"They have nothing to do, so they will care about your matter?"
"Besides, if we leave Chang'an on the front foot, they may receive the news on the back foot."
"And when we arrive in Qinzhou, how can they not know?"
"I'm afraid they are still discussing in the government office how to deal with us."
< br> Li Chengqian waved his hands casually and said: "Come on, uncle Li, you should go and have a rest. We are tired after working hard all the way."
Originally, Li Yu was still thinking about what Li Chengqian said.
But the next moment, I heard Li Chengqian say to let himself rest.
What's going on?
Li Yu said with confusion on his face: "Aren't you going to investigate corruption?"
"Of course I'll check."
"But even if we want to investigate, it's not now."
Li Chengqian pointed outside and said: "With this clear sky and white sun, what can you see? What can they let us see?"
The bigger the corrupt official, the better he is at superficial work.
Even if you have a sharp eye, you probably won't be able to find anything wrong with it.
This was something he had a deep understanding of since he first entered the city.
Apart from other things, the planning of these streets in Qinzhou is comparable to that of Chang'an City.
All streets are horizontal and vertical, and the end can be seen at a glance.
When Li Shimin came over and saw this scene, he probably had to praise the county magistrate hard.
After all, who in the ordinary world has such scheduling ability to repair the entire city so well?
But Li Chengqian is not Li Shimin.
The first time he saw these, he had already discovered the clues.
The houses that line both sides of the street are as neat as new, and nine out of ten of them are unoccupied.
But Qinzhou is not a small county, with a local resident population of five to six million.
Even if there is a free house, it won't be so empty, right?
Therefore, the role of these houses is self-evident.
It was built to show some people...
Although Li Yu is not as sharp as Li Chengqian, he also knows that what Li Chengqian said makes sense.
He didn't say anything at the moment and said directly: "Okay, I'm going to rest. If anything happens, call me."
"Send it to Uncle Li."
Li Chengqian bowed slightly and sent Li Yu away.
And at this moment, Lao Liu walked up to him: "Your Highness, those people spoke..."
