How dare you think of damaging the dignity of a state.
But he just dared to think about this idea.
When he looked at Fang Yuan, this bold idea disappeared instantly.
A fight with Sun Taihe, who is also the county magistrate, is okay, but if he is serious about it with Fang Yuan, who is the governor, he will definitely be the one injured, and the governor of Bingzhou will definitely not take advantage of him if something goes wrong.
"Forgive me, Governor Fang. I will let them leave now."
Ding Huabin quickly smiled and went to drive away the people blocking the road.
"You go back, I will personally escort you."
Fang Yuan said to Sun Taihe, Yu Shaofeng and others.
"Yes."
Sun Taihe and Yu Shaofeng respectfully said yes.
Although neither of them knew why Fang Yuan wanted to escort him personally.
But what Fang Yuan decides is not something they can refute, and they dare not have any opinions.
"Let's go!"
Fang Yuan ordered.
Then he drove forward slowly with a sound of driving.
Du Miaoyan, Wang Shiyu and Xue Bowu followed behind.
Lai Yingzhe and others stepped forward and drove away with the cartloads of red bricks.
Everyone watched the team led by Fang Yuan go further and further, and finally came back to their senses.
"Let's go."
Sun Taihe withdrew his gaze, glanced at Ding Huabin, and said in a deep voice.
When Ding Huabin saw this, he smiled coldly and summoned the chief clerk, asking him to pass the news to the governor of Bingzhou.
Soon, everyone gathered here left.
As time passed slowly, the news that Fang Yuan personally escorted Red Brick spread throughout Bingzhou.
Bingzhou's senior officials and aristocratic families were all stunned when they heard the news, and then burst into loud laughter.
"Don't you think it's embarrassing for the dignified governor to lower his body for escort?"
"This Governor Fang really wants me to laugh to death, and I will become a laughing stock from now on!"
"He thought he could deliver the red bricks to Xinzhou by personally escorting them. It's impossible!"
"Everyone has paid close attention to it. I call on more people to pay attention. Fang Yuan, the governor of Liaozhou, is so generous!"
The whole Bingzhou Taiyuan Prefecture is talking about it.
In less than a day, all thirteen counties in Bingzhou knew about it.
By the third day, all the states in Hedong Province knew about this and were discussing and laughing at it.
It can be said that Fang Yuan has been the governor of Liaozhou for half a year, and this is the first time that his reputation has spread so far.
It's a pity that it's not a good reputation. Even Fang Yuan and others who were escorting Red Brick were aware of the ridicule.
"Damn it, they are deliberately damaging your reputation!"
Du Miaoyan defended Fang Yuan.
After this incident, Fang Yuan will be ridiculed in Hedong.
By then, there may no longer be any state or county purchasing goods produced in Liaozhou.
Wang Shiyu also looked at Fang Yuan with some worry, but opened her mouth and said nothing.
"Don't panic, think in the right direction."
"Look at them, they are getting more and more powerful. They will be a world-famous security team in the future!"
Fang Yuan smiled, pointed at Lai Yingzhe and the others and said.
At this time, Lai Yingzhe was fighting a group of five hundred bandits.
There was a huge gap in numbers between the two sides, but the security team fought more and more fiercely, and their morale overwhelmed the other side.
Even Xue Bowu didn't even take action, he just watched the battle from the sidelines and came to the rescue at critical moments.
There are many experts in the security team. They are no weaker than Zheng Jiu and others, and some are even better than Zheng Jiu and others.
In this kind of fighting, their abilities were displayed, which further stimulated the morale of this security team and became more brave.
In the future, they will escort caravans, and their momentum and reputation alone will be able to scare away bandits with evil intentions, saving a lot of trouble.
"Indeed."
"But in comparison, your reputation is more important."
Du Miaoyan glanced at the battlefield, but quickly ignored them.
Along the way, they encountered bandits three times in three days.
The team in front of me is the most powerful, but neither she nor Xue Bowu need to play, so it doesn’t really matter.
But compared to the growth of the security team, Du Miaoyan felt that Fang Yuan's reputation was more important.
Because Fang Yuan is someone who wants to reach a higher position, his reputation cannot be too bad.
"How about I write a letter to my family and ask them to escort the red brick there."
Wang Shiyu said worriedly.
She didn't deliberately obtain information these days, but she could still get information that mocked Fang Yuan.
It can be seen how many people are mocking Fang Yuan now. It is estimated that the entire Bingzhou already knows, and maybe even the entire Hedong knows.
"Thank you, no, I think this is a rare opportunity."
"Now the whole Hedong Province is discussing and laughing at me. Isn't this also a piece of propaganda?"
Fang Yuan smiled calmly.
The war in the distance has already been won or lost.
The bandits suffered numerous casualties and were fleeing in panic.
"But those are the ones laughing at you."
Du Miaoyan said anxiously.
The reputation is gained, but it is not a good reputation.
As a governor, Du Miaoyan felt that such a reputation was unworthy.
"Now they are laughing at us. That's because they think we can't send them there."
"But what if we sent it there? We sent it there in a hurry and got money. Who dares to laugh at it?"
Fang Yuan chuckled.
The matter has not yet been decided, and they laughed too early.
"This..."
"Are you sure you can send it there?"
Du Miaoyan asked slightly worriedly.
There are so many bandits on this road, someone must have ordered them.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a stupid bandit looking at a pile of useless bricks.
"I don't do anything I'm not sure about."
Fang Yuan smiled and said.
At this time, the war is over.
The bandits were defeated and the security team won.
Xue Bowu came back and sat down next to Fang Yuan.
Du Miaoyan stopped talking, and her heart slowly calmed down.
Indeed, he has known Fang Yuan for so long, and Fang Yuan never does anything he is not sure of.
Leading the team personally this time may seem reckless, but if done well, it will never be less than a publicity event.
For Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan lacks external reputation and is only well-known in Liaozhou and Wuling County.
As far as officialdom is concerned, it is difficult for people without reputation to climb up. Reputation is the key to a higher level.
Wang Shiyu saw that Du Miaoyan didn't speak, so she didn't speak either.
But she was very curious, wondering how sure Fang Yuan was about delivering the goods?
These bandits in front of me are just appetizers, the real behind-the-scenes instigator is the governor of Bingzhou.
She had no idea how sure Fang Yuan was that he could get the governor of Bingzhou to allow him to pass through Bingzhou?
"Lai Yingzhe, let the brothers take a rest. We will set off in half an hour."
Fang Yuan issued the order.
"Yes."
Lai Yingzhe respectfully said yes.
The security team took out dry food to eat and then rested.
"Bo Wu, let's go over there and release the water."
Fang Yuan pointed to one side and said.
Take a look at the mountains and rivers here.
"Oh."
Xue Bowu stood up without any interest.
He is still the same as before, he just wants to fight.
It's a pity that there aren't many fights for him, they are all young shrimp soldiers.
Half an hour later.
Fang Yuan and others set off again.
This time, Fang Yuan will pass through Taiyuan Mansion.
Taiyuan Prefecture is actually the main city of Bingzhou.
Because the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan once served as a stay-at-home officer here, this place has special significance.
Also because it was the place where **** made its fortune, it was also an important place for the imperial court, and the imperial court supported it quite a bit.
"This place is much bigger than our Liaozhou."
Lai Yingzhe and others stood at the city gate and sighed.
These security teams are all local personnel from Liaozhou.
Except for those who escorted the caravan, others have never left Liaozhou.
"It is indeed incomparable to Liaozhou."
Fang Yuan also sighed deeply.
The flow of people here, the grandeur of the city, etc. are much better than Liaozhou.
But this is inevitable. After all, this is an upper state with thirteen counties, and Liaozhou is just a lower state.
"Fang Yuan, aren't we going in?"
"Cui Yuanting, the governor of Bingzhou, may have been waiting for you for a long time. Let's go aside. I know the way."
Wang Shiyu suggested.
This is Taiyuan Prefecture, where the governor of Bingzhou is located.
Not only are there Cui Yuanting, the Wenxi Pei family, the Jiexian Liu family, the Fenyin Xue family and other Hedong clans are also here.
In fact, although the Jinyang Wang family is not here, they are also in Jinyang County nearby, which is very close to here.
It can be said that this magnificent city contains all the hostile families of Fang Yuan. Once you enter, you may not be able to get out.
"The detour will take two more days, so just go here."
"Let me see how Cui Yuanting and the others stopped me."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
There is enough time to go to Xinzhou.
But Fang Yuan didn't want to take a detour, so he wanted to go in from here and see their faces head on.
"Miao Yan, please persuade him."
Wang Shiyu pouted, feeling that her kindness was not rewarded.
She and Fang Yuan haven't settled their accounts yet, and now they are thinking about him, but he is not satisfied.
"Didn't Fang Yuan say he was sure? We'll just watch."
Du Miaoyan did not stop, shook her head and smiled.
She was very curious about how sure Fang Yuan was about passing through here?
Wang Shiyu was stunned, and thought of Fang Yuan's previous assurance, so he stopped talking.
"Enter the city!"
Fang Yuan took a deep breath.
Step into this majestic city with curious eyes.
To be honest, Fang Yuan has been to very few places, only staying in Langzhou and Liaozhou.
This is the first time for Fang Yuan to visit such a majestic city like Taiyuan Mansion, and he is very curious about how they are constructed.
There is a saying that goes well, it is always good to read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and take more walks.
After inspection, Fang Yuan and others were allowed to enter Taiyuan Mansion.
As soon as they entered the city, Fang Yuan and others were looked at.
It’s not that his identity was exposed, but the queue was long and there were two beauties, Du Miaoyan and Wang Shiyu.
But soon, Fang Yuan and others were indeed targeted. The spies from the aristocratic families discovered the identities of Fang Yuan and others, and left one after another to report the news.
Fang Yuan pretended that he didn't know and found a luxurious restaurant to reserve the place for the three hundred security team to eat and drink before setting off.
The food had just been served, and before we even started eating, more than fifty state officials appeared outside the restaurant.
Their appearance alarmed the people who were passing by, and they all got out of the way, and stayed curiously not far away to watch.
As soon as these state officials arrived, they immediately rushed into the restaurant with great momentum.
"Get up, all get up!"
"You are suspected of a murder case, come back to the state government with us to await trial!"
The leading state official looked around the scene and said loudly.
Lai Yingzhe and others looked at each other with unkind eyes and did not speak.
When they saw Fang Yuan start to move his chopsticks, they followed suit and started eating.
"You are in such a hurry to eat, please follow me back to the cell to eat."
The leading state official saw that no one was paying attention to him, and his face turned ugly.
When the state officials behind them saw this, they immediately rushed to the tables closest to them angrily.
"Get up, didn't you hear?"
"Everyone, get up, hinder our work, and break your legs!"
Bingzhou officials pushed and pushed the security guards.
Some even pushed the food in front of the security guards onto the ground.
"Stop!"
Lai Yingzhe roared.
Slap your hand on the dining table and stand up.
As he stood up, the three hundred security guards on site stood up one after another.
The atmosphere suddenly became depressing, and more than fifty state officials suddenly felt like they were surrounded.
The state officials who were arrogant just now were also startled and looked at their leaders one after another.
"So brave!"
"You are looking for death!"
The leading state official said sternly.
With a clang, he pulled out the sword from his waist.
Upon seeing this, other state officials drew their swords and looked coldly at Lai Yingzhe and others.
Fifty armed state officials can fight against 300 unarmed ordinary people.
However, what they encountered were Fang Yuan's three hundred security guards, who were also wearing weapons.
Lai Yingzhe saw the opponent draw his sword.
Pick up the sword on the stool and place it heavily on the dining table.
Other security guards followed suit, placing their sabers on the dining table and staring coldly at the state officials present.
The atmosphere suddenly became more depressing, the state officials present changed their expressions one after another, and the people watching the show outside were also shocked.
The head of the state official's expression became solemn, and finally he found that among all the people who stood up, there was still a table of four people who did not stand up, it was Fang Yuan and the others.
He pondered for a moment and walked towards Fang Yuan and others.
As he moved around, three hundred people looked at him.
Those terrifying eyes made him feel uncomfortable and tremble slightly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Finally, he couldn't hold it back and put the saber back to his waist, stopping when he was still one meter away from Fang Yuan and others.
"Brothers, you are suspected of murder. Please return to the state capital to await trial."
"If you disobey orders and show no respect, more soldiers will come and you will not be able to leave Taiyuan Mansion."
The captain of the state officials took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"Do you know who I am?"
Fang Yuan did not raise his head and ate calmly.
The taste here is good, much better than the one in Liaozhou.
Sure enough, in a place with a lot of people, the food will be more attractive.
"I don't know."
The captain of the state officials dare not complain.
He was also curious about Fang Yuan’s identity.
There are not many state officials in the state capital of Bingzhou, not as many as 300 people.
But there is a governor's office in Bingzhou, which can mobilize tens of thousands of troops, and the three hundred people in front of them cannot be arrogant at all.
But the person in front of him dares to confront himself and others. What is his identity?
"I am Fang Yuan, the governor of Liaozhou."
"You go back and let someone who can speak to me come to see me."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
The captain of the state officials trembled and looked at Fang Yuan in surprise.
I wanted to laugh a little, but I quickly held it back, saluted Fang Yuan and led the team away.
"It turns out that he is the governor of Liaozhou."
"No wonder I am not afraid of confronting state officials."
"I heard that he put down his body to escort the goods. It was really hilarious."
"Yes, it's really pitiful for the dignified governor to escort goods to Xinzhou for that little money."
"Well...keep your promise and deliver the goods on time, isn't that a man? Why...ahem, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything."
The people at the scene were talking a lot.
Mocking and laughing at Fang Yuan and others.
But they were outside the restaurant, and the sound did not reach Fang Yuan.
Lai Yingzhe and others had already sat down again and ordered drinks. They were chatting and laughing very happily.
Soon, the time for a meal passed.
When Fang Yuan and others were picking their teeth and resting, the state officials had just left and returned.
Also returning with him were Cui Yuanting, the governor of Bingzhou, and some people whom Fang Yuan didn't know.
But it was obvious that Wang Shiyu knew him. As soon as he saw one of them, he immediately hid in Du Miaoyan's arms.
"Shiyu, why don't you come home with me quickly?!"
A middle-aged man who looked majestic shouted angrily.
He is Wang Shiyu's father and Wang Changrong, the patriarch of the Wang family in Jinyang.
"Dad~"
Wang Shiyu stood up.
"Come back!"
"Don't be with bad people!"
Wang Changrong shouted coldly.
As soon as these words came out, Du Miaoyan's face became a little ugly.
"Dad, don't talk nonsense!"
"Listen to your daughter once and don't get involved!"
Wang Shiyu was also angry, walked towards Wang Changrong and pulled him aside.
"You don't have to worry about daddy's affairs."
Wang Changrong said with a straight face.
But Wang Shiyu forcibly pulled her away from Cui Yuanting and others.
"Dad, listen to your daughter for once!"
Wang Shiyu looked at Wang Changrong and begged again.
Wang Changrong stared at Wang Shiyu and snorted coldly, but had no plans to move forward.
Cui Yuanting and others seemed to understand what Wang Changrong and his daughter meant, and frowned slightly, but said nothing.
"I have asked for leave. Should I call you Fang Governor or Fang Yuan?"
Cui Yuanting looked at Fang Yuan and chuckled.
"This depends on the character of Governor Cui."
Fang Yuan smiled calmly.
Stand up and give Cui Yuanting a slight salute.
The same is true for Du Miaoyan, Xue Bowu and Lai Yingzhe.
"President Fang is really different."
Cui Yuanting's mouth twitched slightly and returned Fang Yuan's bow.
If he didn't return this gift, he might be said to have lost his character.
When the family heads who followed saw this, they naturally saluted Fang Yuan together.
"It's funny."
"Chief Cui brought so many people here, are they here to see me off?"
Fang Yuan chuckled.
"Chief Fang really knows what he is asking."
"You are suspected of a murder case. Please go back with me and cooperate with the investigation."
"And now everyone is carrying a weapon, which can easily scare the officer and the people of Bingzhou."
Cui Yuanting looked at Fang Yuan with a half-smile and said.
Although he brought more than fifty state officials, he did not panic at all when faced with Fang Yuan's three hundred security guards.
Because this is Bingzhou, this is his base camp, he is the king here, and a mere three hundred people is not a problem at all.
Any one of the several noble clan heads who came with him can mobilize three hundred clan soldiers, and suppressing Fang Yuan is a trivial matter.
"The murder weapon will not be exposed, so Governor Cui can rest assured."
"But is it true that a murder case is involved?"
Fang Yuan said calmly.
"I received the news and Governor Fang came all the way and killed three waves of bandits."
"But during my investigation, I discovered that there were ordinary people among the bandits, and Governor Fang mistakenly killed ordinary people."
Cui Yuanting also said calmly.
He looked like he was determined to find Fang Yuan.
Suppressing mountain bandits is a crime for the people, not a murder case.
But it's different when ordinary people appear among bandits. They are suspected of murder.
Cui Yuanting did not directly accuse Fang Yuan of killing innocent people indiscriminately, he just said it was a wrongful killing.
But after entering the cell, everything will be decided by him.
There is no noise in the restaurant at the moment.
The sound spreads outside easily.
After the common people heard that Fang Yuan killed common people by mistake while suppressing bandits, they were in an uproar.
At this time, because of the arrival of Cui Yuanting and others, and because of the deliberate instigation of Cui Yuanting and others, the outside of the restaurant was crowded with people.
After hearing that Fang Yuan killed people by mistake, the people were very angry, and they all said that Fang Yuan was wrong.
"It's impossible, we didn't take the initiative during the whole process."
Fang Yuan shook his head and said firmly.
"I can testify that Fang Yuan did not kill ordinary people by mistake."
Du Miaoyan interrupted and said in a deep voice.
"You are in the same group and have no right to testify."
Cui Yuanting looked at Du Miaoyan and said in a deep voice.
Du Miaoyan snorted coldly and wanted to explain.
But at this moment, Wang Shiyu spoke.
"I will testify, okay?"
Wang Shiyu said.
"Wang Shiyu, shut up!"
Wang Changrong frowned and shouted in a low voice.
He doesn't have to get involved, but his daughter shouldn't get involved either.
"I..."
Wang Shiyu's aggrieved eyes suddenly became misty.
But when he opened his mouth, facing Wang Changrong's stern expression, he finally did not speak.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I just need a beautiful face to testify."
"Chief Cui, you said she and I are on the same team, but you don't know her identity?"
Fang Yuan expressed his gratitude to Wang Shiyu, then pointed at Du Miaoyan, looked at Cui Yuanting and chuckled.
"Her identity is not important. What is important is that you are in the same group, so you cannot testify."
"Prince Fang, please stop struggling in vain and return to the governor's mansion with me. I will give you justice."
Cui Yuanting said in a deep voice.
He naturally knows Du Miaoyan's identity.
When welcoming Pei Ji, he also met Du Miaoyan and knew that she was Du Ruhui's daughter.
But as long as they insist that the two are working together, Du Miaoyan will have no way to testify for Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan will not be able to escape the crime.
"Chief Cui is really selfless."
"I will report it to Your Majesty as the young head of the Royal Merchant Company, and I will also inform my father."
Du Miaoyan's face darkened and she said coldly.
Generally speaking, as Du Ruhui's daughter, she can testify to others.
Not only that, but he also has the status of the young head of the Royal Merchant Company, which most people would not dare not to give face to.
But Cui Yuanting refused to give him face, which made Du Miaoyan lose face and prepared to impeach Cui Yuanting.
"Please also ask Miss Du to explain the situation truthfully."
Cui Yuanting's face looked a little worried.
He remembered that Du Miaoyan was Du Ruhui's daughter, but he forgot that she had the identity of the young head of the Royal Merchant Company.
For a moment, I felt a little regretful. I regretted that I should not have spoken so absolutely and made the relationship between them unhappy.
The heads of the noble families who came with Cui Yuanting looked at Du Miaoyan and frowned, probably guessing Du Miaoyan's identity.
They just didn't expect that Fang Yuan would come with such a distinguished woman, which really surprised them.
But a mere woman couldn't resist Fang Yuan being imprisoned.
He is destined to become the laughing stock of the Hedong states.
Maybe because of this, Fang Yuan will be dismissed from the post of governor.
"Humph!"
Du Miaoyan snorted coldly and said nothing.
"Prefect Fang, please go back with me."
Cui Yuanting took a deep breath and said coldly.
The dissatisfaction he got from Du Miaoyan would be doubled from Fang Yuan.
If something unexpected happens in the state prison, he, the governor, will not be responsible.
"What if I say no?"
Fang Yuan smiled and said.
After the words fell, Lai Yingzhe and others took action together.
They walked out from the dining table and gathered around Fang Yuan to stare at Cui Yuanting and others.
"Pfft, hahaha..."
"Fang Governor, are you going to attack me in Bingzhou?"
Cui Yuanting burst into laughter and said.
Other aristocratic families also laughed.
To attack them in Taiyuan Mansion is undoubtedly to seek death.
Even though there are only more than fifty state officials here now, he is not panicking.
"They don't dare, it's just that they are ignorant."
"You also saw that I did not ask them to take action."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Disagree with Cui Yuanting’s ridicule.
"Get it for me!"
Cui Yuanting sneered and his eyes became gloomy.
He laughed at Fang Yuan because he thought Fang Yuan was ridiculous.
But Fang Yuan seemed to be laughing back at him, making him uncomfortable.
Looking at Fang Yuan, he seemed to have someone to rely on, which made him even more unhappy.
This is Bingzhou, a place under his jurisdiction. Why does he look like he has something to rely on?
The state officials drew their swords one after another.
The security guards also drew their swords one after another.
But fifty versus three hundred, the state officials did not dare to take action.
"Trash, what are you doing standing around?"
"This is Bingzhou, and you are state officials. Do they dare to take action?"
Cui Yuanting was furious and felt so humiliated that he kicked a governor in the body.
But having said that, they were also very scared when faced with a group of security guards with murderous weapons and fierce eyes.
"Chief Cui, let the clan soldiers come."
The patriarch of the Pei family, who was pleased to hear, grabbed Cui Yuanting and whispered.
It is normal for state officials to be afraid between life and death. He was also a little panicked when he looked at Fang Yuan's group of guards.
It's obvious that these guards have killed people, and the murderous aura they carry is inimitable. They are ferocious people.
"Come here!"
Cui Yuanting shouted loudly.
A large number of people immediately poured in outside.
They are soldiers of the Cui clan and have been hiding outside for a long time.
A large number of clan soldiers poured in and soon surrounded Fang Yuan and others.
Du Miaoyan was shocked and immediately got closer to Fang Yuan to ensure Fang Yuan's safety.
Wang Shiyu was also shocked and wanted to do something, but was held tightly by Wang Changrong.
"Chief Fang, do you really want to take action?"
Cui Yuanting sneered and looked at Fang Yuan furiously.
If Fang Yuan wants to take action, he doesn't mind killing anyone.
Just looking at Fang Yuan's calm look made him very unhappy.
Fang Yuan smiled slightly and was about to speak.
But at this moment, the sound of rushing horses and neat footsteps could be heard outside the restaurant.
Immediately afterwards, a mighty middle-aged man approached with a man and a woman.
"When you arrest people, don't you ask the governor for his opinion?"
