At this moment, Sai Mudan and Hei Ya stood in front of Lin Yuwu, staring at him and looking up and down: "Aren't you the grandson?"
"Why am I not the great-grandson?" Lin Yuwu smiled, "Have you ever met the great-grandson?"
"You're still lying to me?" Hei Ya slapped his hand on the wooden table, "It's spread all over Jinling City, my grandson is in Jinling, in such a Xiyuan... and you still say you are your grandson! I don't know you.
The real grandson and the fake grandson, don’t all the officials in Jinling City know the grandson and can’t tell the real grandson from the fake one?”
you do not say!
Sai Mudan said angrily: "We have caused even greater trouble this time. So many officials from high to low have been kidnapped. Where is Qing Palace? Where did that kid go? What did you do to him? Three
The prince is also missing, and even Mr. Funiu is nowhere to be seen. Where have all the people gone? Who are you?"
"I..." Lin Yuwu sighed inwardly, and after a moment of regret, he said bluntly: "I am indeed not a grandson." After he said this, he smiled again and said without waiting for the other party to speak: "Don't be afraid. This is a blessing for you.
Since we are well informed, do you know what is happening to the other gangsters on Jiangnan Road besides you?"
What's the meaning?
Sai Mudan and Hei Ya looked at each other: "Speak clearly."
"Chang Zhonghe, the governor of Liangjiang, has mobilized 20,000 soldiers and horses from the capital command department to suppress the bandits." Lin Yuwu looked at the two men, "Twenty thousand soldiers and horses, even if they are trapped, can trap them to death. But you, you may
Isn't it a blessing to take off this bandit skin and put on official clothes?"
With 20,000 horses, Sai Mudan's complexion suddenly changed.
Hei Ya had a pensive look on his face, "Is this true?"
"Of course we are serious! Otherwise, so many officials in Jinling are locked up, why only Chang Zhonghe came out." Lin Yuwu asked the two of them, "Liangjiang Governor-General and Prime Minister Liangjiang Civil Affairs and Military Affairs, he has the right to mobilize all the garrison troops in the area under his jurisdiction."
.My grandson spared your life. This kindness...you must be aware of it."
Sai Mudan asked Hei Ya in a low voice: "Is what he said true?" Usually, she would hear this kind of news in one ear and out the other, so she didn't take it to heart at all. Who knew she would deal with officials in the future?
?
Hei Ya nodded slightly, said 'hmm', then turned around and looked Lin Yuwu up and down: "Who are you? Your grandson's substitute?"
This question is really hard to explain.
But Hei Ya couldn't understand Lin Yuwu's complicated heart at all, and then asked: "Where is Qing Gong? What did you do to him? We can agree to seek refuge with you, but our people must be handed over to us. And Mr. Funiu
, come to think of it, no matter what you do, you will not do anything to a sick and frail old man, right?"
Call Qing Gong one of theirs!
I really don't know whether to praise them for their loyalty or for Tong'er's performance as a bandit.
"Okay, don't ask the grandson, and don't ask Qinggong." Lin Yuwu waved his hand, revealing his identity: "The grandson is Qinggong, and Qinggong is the grandson. That's why I said, you are in luck.
.”
What the hell?
Grandson is Qing Gong?
"No!" Sai Mudan thought about his rogue attitude when they first met, "Is your grandson like that?"
What should the grandson be like?
Lin Yuwu looked at the two of them, his expression suddenly became serious, "My grandson, it's because you two are not evil... Otherwise, you would have been killed long ago. Now, there are no more options for you to choose."
More, the first is to obey orders, and the second is to obey orders. There is no third way. Do you understand?"
Sai Mudan pouted, unable to get used to this kind of attitude of falling out at every turn. Hei Ya over there was more aware of current affairs, and stopped Sai Mudan who was about to speak, "I wonder what your name is?"
"Wu Lin." Lin Yuwu reported his name, "You don't need to know who I am, as long as you know whose orders to follow and what to do. Let me ask you, have all the people on the list been invited?"
Sai Mudan nodded: "Aren't you looking down on people? Not only have we invited everyone on the list, but we have also invited people who are not on the list!"
Know!
The cave over there can't even be filled. Those who caught the pawnbroker were all petty, and they also caught the prison chief of a certain county. Not to mention how ugly it was to eat.
Lin Yuwu didn't even think about blaming now. The Imperial Guards couldn't suppress these bandits, but the people they insisted on kidnapping were probably not clean people. After all, they had to spit out something.
"Do you know what to do next?" he asked the two of them.
Hei Ya handed over his hand and said, "Master Wu, please make it clear."
Since the person behind the scenes is the grandson, they are cleared of the crime of murdering the grandson. But if they do not cooperate, the responsibility for kidnapping the imperial official will be passed on to them in a blink of an eye. Moreover, what's wrong with changing his official skin?
?Ever since Luocao became a bandit, he could not return home. His parents had long disowned him, and there was no such person as him in the Bai family's genealogy. From then on, he could not even have the surname "Bai", only "Bai".
With 'Hei' as his surname. When he really changes his official attire, the Bai family will have to open an ancestral hall for him. If he can go home openly and honestly... he can do whatever he wants.
Therefore, he looked at Lin Yuwu with burning eyes, waiting for him to speak.
Lin Yuwu called him over and gave some instructions in a low voice, "...do you understand?"
I understand, I understand, but why do I do this?
Hei Ya said: "That's the great grandson! If the great grandson just says a word, the family will be confiscated and it will be over..."
Lin Yuwu looked at him: "Of course you can copy it. But you can't copy it when you want. You have to check him, you have to find evidence, and you have to prevent him from transferring all the family property. You see Jinling City is busy now, but
If the grandson had no evidence, who do you think he would arrest? Aren't those officials just waiting for the grandson to be 'summoned' in Xiyuan? Are there any charges? Are there house searches? The salt merchants were ransacked first."
Ah! That’s right!
With the accounts of salt merchants, there will be evidence of corruption among officials.
So this is ah.
Hei Ya patted his chest and promised, "Please be kind. This will be done smoothly for you."
After coming out, Sai Mudan asked Hei Ya: "What did you say? Is Qing Gong really a great grandson?"
It should be unmistakable.
Hei Ya nodded, and then called Sai Mudan: "We also have to show our skills."
On the top of a hill surrounded by water, halfway up the mountain, there is an extremely hidden cave. Entering the house from the cave entrance, there is a small cave inside a small cave, and the entire mountain seems to have been hollowed out.
Four people were imprisoned in the small cave inside.
The first four people who were sent here were the county magistrate, county captain, county magistrate, and lecturing officer of Tang County in Quanzhou. These four people had been in for a long time. From the very beginning, there were only four of them in the huge cave.
At first, you could hear ghosts crying and wolves howling. Then, there were more and more people day by day. In other small caves, you could hear yelling, quarreling, and fighting. When you heard a voice that seemed to be that of the prefect,
, County Magistrate Zhang is in a bad state. Who the hell are these people? Why would they dare to kidnap anyone? I originally thought that I, a seventh-grade magistrate and an official of the imperial court, would be caught.
This was a major case. The court had to be alerted. In this way, he was not in so much danger. Naturally, these people would not kill him for the time being when they kidnapped him. He could still cook even a bowl of porridge a day.
He came down. He also used these words to comfort Wang County Prime Minister Li Xianwei and Cao Jiaoyu, "As long as we survive, there will be a way to survive. If we are really asked to say something... I'm afraid we have to explain it here." Who.
There's nothing shady about it, right? Speaking of which, no one can say what these guys, who don't know whether they are black or white, will do.
Therefore, the four of them reached a consensus that no matter what happened, they would never speak.
As more and more people are imprisoned, each other knows that the other person's identity is extraordinary. They are all people who have achieved fame and have been in the officialdom until now. Who is the fool? As soon as you think about it, you know that something is wrong.
For such a big battle, the person behind it must have an unusual identity.
People are holding back their efforts to investigate, and even resorting to extraordinary means to investigate, that is, they want to steal everyone's records.
Can you just say this with your mouth open?
No way!
Not to mention, the family members can still escape, so we are in trouble. But what if we say something? That is the prison officer. The family members of the prison officer... dare not think about it anymore.
So strangely, after getting over the initial panic, no one spoke even if it was a meal of gruel a day. There was someone who tied his belt to the fence gate and tried to get his head in and turn it around twice to kill himself.
There are also those who want to hit the wall and just want to die quickly.
These all belong to the category of tough guys.
On this day, Magistrate Zhang asked County Magistrate Wang: "...how many days have you been here?"
I fainted from hunger several times, who knows what day it was. Looking at everyone who was hungry and bloated, I thought it was quite a while ago.
Wang Xian Cheng said: "I don't know... I can't remember..." Then he looked at Li Xianwei: "The security of a county depends entirely on Mr. Li. But now? Even the county magistrate has been lost!"
Lieutenant Li County must be accused of dereliction of duty in this matter.
Li Quanyou didn't want to talk to him. What happened to the security guard? "The county magistrate was taken out of his own home. Is this also my dereliction of duty?"
Cao Jiaoyu leaned aside and said, "Several adults were arrested with extenuating circumstances. What about me? What did I do?"
A teacher is responsible for supervising the county school and participating in the children's exams. He has nothing to do with his own business at other times. Why was he arrested? He usually leaned against the fence and shouted: "You are wronged."
!”
"You're unjust, right?" Sai Mudan leaned outside the fence gate, squinting at Cao Jiaoyu, "Looking at you, you're gentle and well-mannered, and you're also a scholar. You're tall... you're fair and fair... Okay, who's called aunt?"
If you're in a good mood, come out and tell me why you were wronged?"
ah?
Can I go out?
Cao Jiaoyu stood up after a while. He had a good appearance. He was in his early thirties and had a beautiful beard. Although he was a little sloppy now, it did not hinder the fact that he was still a handsome man after a little tidying up.
He stood up and tidied his hair with his hands, then straightened the dry straw on his body: "Young lady, you are polite."
Sai Mudan covered her mouth and giggled, looked Cao Jiaoyu up and down again, then waved her hand and asked someone to open the fence door, "Tell him to come out."
Such a little person, passing by in the corridor, looked around, and his heart beat faster.
Oh my God! Who did I see?
Master Xuezheng? Master Zhifu? Master Zhizhou? They arrived at the entrance of the cave. In the small cave closest to the entrance, they saw an adult wearing a crimson official uniform and sitting cross-legged on the ground with his back to the outside.
The crimson official uniform shows his identity, which must be at least from the third rank.
After coming out of the big cave, he stood on the hillside, looking at the endless water in all directions. His heart felt so cold. He wanted to run away? Did he run away? He was really going to die here. He took off his clothes and plunged into the water.
Throw them away and feed them all to the bastards. You can't even tell who is who.
This scene made him feel timid at first.
So I ran out of words to find something to say: "Who is that adult?"
Sai Mudan looked at him coldly, and then suddenly smiled: "You can't save yourself, so you still have time to care about others? Let's see if your life can be saved first?"
"Well..." Cao Jiaoyu said hurriedly: "Little lady, you don't know, I am just a little Jiaoyu, and I have never done anything serious or evil..." Balabala kept talking all the way.
The third son made a sound on the side: "With just one instruction, you can buy five shops and 700 acres of farmland in the county? How did you get the money?"
The Tongsheng Examination is the starting point on the road to the imperial examination. If you cannot pass this hurdle, then you will not be able to pass.
But since Cao Jiaoyu took office, those students from poor families in Tang County have been completely unable to get ahead. Even if they have the ability and ability, they can't get over this hurdle if they can't get money.
Cao Jiaoyu's face turned pale: "Retreat! I will retreat completely! I don't want a cent, I will retreat completely. As long as you let me go, you can say anything."
Sai Mudan took him to the cave on the other side. The cave was lit by torches, and there were tables and stools, as well as pens, inks, paper and inkstones. "We still don't appreciate the little money you have. To be honest, if it weren't for someone,
After ordering you, we can’t think of arresting you. We don’t want to take the trouble of bringing you here from Tang County.” She pushed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone aside, and shouted outside, “Let’s set the food first.”
In no time, a table full of chicken, duck, and fish was laid out.
For someone who has been hungry for days, this is everything.
Regardless of the image, I tore the chicken legs and stuffed them into my mouth. I have never been so hungry.
Sai Mudan put it aside and poured him wine: "Look, how pitiful you are. Oops! You said that people who have some ideas all want to teach their children to study, and if they study and take the exam, they will be successful. You said that you also lived in poverty for ten years.
Ah...how could we be...reduced to such a situation now? It's so unbearable to see."
After three glasses of wine, Cao Jiaoyu burst into tears: "I'm so wronged!" He didn't get much money, he didn't suffer less, and the one who felt most wronged was himself.
Sai Mudan said "Yeah": "I understand! I understand! I heard people say that the officialdom is like a big dyeing vat. If you don't want to join in the same trend, you will have to be ostracized..."
"Exclusion is light." Cao Jiaoyu poured another glass of wine and drank it down, "Do you know who they are? All of them kill without blood. Who doesn't want to study to assist the king and help the country? Back then,
I was also a second-class Jinshi, but because I came from a poor family, I was sent to a small place to teach. But do you know what the final result of my last teaching was?"
Sai Mudan poured some wine for her, blinking her eyes, her eyes full of 'knowledge and admiration'.
Cao Jiaoyu was stared at in a daze for a moment, then he coughed lightly and leaned over and whispered: "In my last term, I just couldn't stand them, so I collected evidence and sent it to the capital... What was the result? In the end, I was betrayed by a child they bribed.
He was sued for corruption and was eventually dismissed from office. But on the way back to his hometown, he was killed by bandits before leaving Tang County. No one, including his wife, children, and children, was spared. Tell me, would you not be afraid if it were someone else?
Over the years, I have also... collected some money just to numb them, but I haven't done anything harmful to God..."
"You didn't do anything bad, what are you afraid of?" Sai Mudan said angrily, then stretched out his hand to rub Cao Jiaoyu's hand, and drew circles on the back of his hand with his fingers, and then lowered his voice,
"I have no choice but to take the money. If I withdraw it, it will be over. There is no guilt at all. Seeing that it is really not easy for you, I will tell you something again."
"What?" With wine, meat, and beautiful women in the company, Cao Jiaoyu was on the verge of collapse. At this moment, he was a little greedy for this feeling.
Sai Mudan whispered: "This time, officials from the two provinces of Jiangnan have come in. There is a saying that wealth can be found in danger...don't you think about it...there are so many official vacancies...who will the court fill?"
Cao Jiaoyu was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he took a sip from the wine glass and drank it.
Yes! Yes!
No matter what the purpose of this woman is, even if she wants to get information out of her own mouth, what does it matter? What she said does make sense.
After so many years of teaching, I haven't been able to take a step forward.
This time it seems that there are many dangers, but it is true that what happened to me is not worthy of being beheaded and dismissed from office.
On the contrary, if you seize the opportunity, you might as well take a step forward, not to mention the county magistrate, even the county magistrate.
Those who want the position of prefect. Once they get to the position of prefect, to be honest, it doesn’t matter whether they get in or not. One year to clear the prefecture is worth a hundred thousand snowflakes.
He was not an idiot, nor was he easily dazzled by wine and sex. He was originally testing this woman, but the woman said something like this, which made him see another possibility: "...you mean,
To make meritorious deeds?"
Sai Mudan took her hand back, and the careless and charming look on her face also disappeared. She pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone beside her, "Write down whatever you know. Did I lie to you? Try it.
You know it. Besides, having wine and meat here is better than living in darkness inside."
After saying that, she stood up and asked people to keep an eye on Cao.
Cao Jiaoyu really couldn't bear it: if people don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them.
Especially after seeing the 'Prince Guard' badge 'accidentally' revealed on Zhao Shaowu's waist, I became even more determined.
In one night, he wrote down all the things done by County Magistrate Zhang, Lieutenant Li and County Magistrate Wang.
Then the next day, Magistrate Zhang and three others were taken out.
This time Hei Ya came forward, holding Cao Jiaoyu's confession in his hand, and said this again: "Either we send this thing to Jinling or the capital, and then throw you into the water and make one of you commit suicide out of fear of crime.
. Or, write a letter asking your family to bring the money to redeem the person. Bring the money, and we will pay it off. We will collect the money, and you leave. By the way, you can also take away the evidence in my hand. How to choose? You yourself
Decide."
The evidence shows corruption, perversion of the law, and disregard for human life. How can it be dismissed so easily?
Besides, what kind of bandit dares to kidnap so many adults?
Lieutenant Li sneered: "We really think we are fools..."
Hei Ya waved his hand and sneered: "You are not a fool, but you are too smart. Come here! It seems that County Lieutenant Li is not going to cooperate anymore. Cut it off! Take off your clothes and throw them away to feed the fish."
Zhao Shaowu pulled out his knife and without any hesitation, he slashed directly at County Lieutenant Li's neck. The three of them thought it was a threat, but it turned out not to be! It was a real slash! With one strike, blood spurted three feet away!
Hei Ya waved, and someone came over and pulled Lieutenant Li out. He stripped off his clothes, tied him with stones, and threw him into the water.
Wang Xiancheng was so frightened that he peed: "...you...you...that's an official of the imperial court..."
Hei Ya chuckled: "What do we do? He was given two roads. This road was his own choice. Don't think that I don't dare to kill people because he is some bullshit court official. I have tied up so many court officials just to treat you well."
If you let him go, will I be fine? In the end, it's not a dead end. It's still death, so why can't I make some money? Let's make it clear, I want money! If you want your life, you can give me money in exchange."
With that said, he tossed his sleeves and went out directly.
Magistrate Zhang looked at Zhang Shaowu: "My dear nephew... what are you..."
Zhao Shaowu laughed: "The post was stolen. I am not lucky enough to be your nephew."
Magistrate Zhang looked at the other party seriously and felt relieved. The bandits were easier to deal with than the officials. The bandits only wanted money, but the officials would kill him.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "I want money, this matter is easy to talk about... easy to talk about..."
Ten thousand taels of silver?
Zhao Shaowu remained unmoved.
Twenty thousand taels of silver?
This one simply closed his eyes.
Fifty thousand taels of silver?
The man opened his eyes and shouted out: "County Magistrate Zhang thinks his life is worthless, so he should pull him down and chop him down. He deserves to be handed over the evidence to the government, and his family will be confiscated and his family exterminated!"
"No, no, no!" Magistrate Zhang quickly backed away: "Two hundred and seventy-nine thousand, four hundred taels... There are three shops and one courtyard in the capital, two shops and three courtyards in Jinling, and the seal of the county.
There are two workshops, one courtyard, ten boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings...1,300 acres of paddy fields...790 acres of dry fields...and barren hills...that's all."
Zhao Shaowu then said: "That's pretty much it. But if this happens, what will happen to your family and children?"
Zhang Baishou became decadent: "Go back to your hometown... maybe you can live on the land of your clan..."
Zhao Shaowu pushed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone: "I can keep the courtyard in the capital for you, and I can also leave you a room in the shop. The dry fields and barren mountains are still yours. We want the rest."
"Ah?" So kind?
Zhao Shaowu clicked on the paper: "There are no free benefits, right?"
Zhang Baishou understood that he was asking him to bite his superior officer.
Link after link, no one can escape.
So he said: "I don't ask for anything else, I just want to save my life."
Zhao Shaowu asked him to come out of the cave and pointed down the mountain, "Who do you think that is?"
The person who is boarding the boat is not Cao Jiaoyu.
Zhao Shaowu said: "If he bites you out, he can leave. In another place, wait for his money to be delivered, and then he can leave."
Zhang Baishou sighed, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you really not from the grandson?"
Hei Ya walked over and snorted: "You are thinking too much. We were forced to go down this road by you officials. They lied to us and said that the person they robbed and killed was just a corrupt official. Who?
Only after we burned the boat did we know that it was Taisun's boat. You are driving us to death. If something happens to Taisun, all of you will become loyal ministers who suppress bandits and avenge Taisun. But
If nothing happens, each of you is pretending to be more innocent than anyone else. Aren't you taking our lives as fate? Come on! How come death is not death? If you don't make us feel better, then none of you will have a better life."
Zhang Baishou sat down on the ground and smiled bitterly: "I know! I know! As long as you can survive, you can do whatever you want."
When he saw Cao Jiaoyu leaving by boat, he felt a little lucky.
Little did they know that Cao Jiaoyu's boat sank soon, and he could only sink in these waters. First, he deserved it. Not only did he ask for money from the students, he also asked for sex. The widowed sisters of the students who participated in the Tongsheng Examination were raped.
There were not just one or two people who committed suicide after being raped. He deserved his death. Secondly, since he was convinced that his grandson was a kidnapper, he had no choice but to die.
When Lin Yutong received the account book sent by Lin Yuwu, he sighed: He was still too kind to these officials.
The fourth master took the account book and looked at it, "So, this time... even 100 million can't be stopped?"
One hundred million taels of silver.
After Emperor Yongzheng spent thirteen years cleaning up his father's mess, there were only more than 60 million taels in the treasury at the end of his life.
The more copies he copied, the heavier Lin Yutong felt.
How hard the lives of these people were before they could accumulate so much wealth. And these are only the two provinces of Jiangnan.
If we really wanted to thoroughly investigate them one by one, how many would we need?
It's scary to think about it.
Recuperating and recuperating with the people is a top priority.
But this is a major national policy matter. How can a grandson have such a big say?
If you want to keep your words, you still need to have greater authority.
Therefore, it seems to have become more urgent to move away the mountain that is pressing down on our heads and the stone that is blocking our way.
While the two were talking, Tian Fu came in and said, "Your Highness, County Magistrate Cheng is here."
Become a county magistrate?
Who?
Tian Fu whispered: "It's the seventeen-year-old scholar you met before, named Cheng Pengju. You appointed him as the magistrate of Tang County at that time, have you forgotten?"
Officials from two provinces were appointed in one day, how could they remember them all?
But when he mentioned it, she remembered, "Didn't he take office? Why are you still stranded in Jinling?"
Tianfu whispered: "The county magistrate Cheng said that there is something important to report."
"Then call him in." The seventeen-year-old county magistrate is still a bit young. If she didn't urgently need someone, she wouldn't hire such a young boy.
Cheng Pengju was a little high-spirited. After coming in to greet Lin Yutong, he said eagerly: "Your Highness, do you have any clues about the missing official?"
Lin Yutong raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What did you find?"
Cheng Pengju hurriedly said: "My subordinates have brought the county's police officers, officials and masters. They all know the situation better than I do..."
"Then call me up." Lin Yutong laughed. Sure enough, he is still young!
No matter what his position is, he should not focus on the missing officials.
The three people came in very tremblingly, not daring to raise their heads even as they knelt down.
Qian Tong's hands were clenched tightly. This shouldn't have happened. The person who kidnapped the county magistrate was originally a guard. Since he was a guard, it couldn't have nothing to do with the grandson. Now he ran to the grandson and talked to the grandson.
Isn't it unhealthy to say that we want to find the murderer?
So he made up his mind to remain silent.
Sun Dianli is more slippery than Qian Tong. This matter has been revealed to the sky, and there are too many people to worry about. We little people are jumping? What? No one is more capable than the head catcher Liu Daniu, so that he did not find any clues? No one can compare.
A scholar is wiser, but he cannot decide a public case clearly?
Nonsense!
If the big guys don't move, then there's a reason why they can't move. The little guys jump? What?
Can't you show yourself?
He also shrank, his whole body seemed to be shaking, and he seemed unable to speak a word.
Cheng Pengju looked at the two of them and focused his attention on Liu Daniu.
Liu Daniu followed the newly-appointed county magistrate to claim credit. If a scholar can become a county magistrate, can he, a head catcher, also become a county captain?
So he had the courage to start with the crying and howling of Zhang County magistrate's family, and how the Zhang family was afraid, and he went to ask the other party, and how the other party hid it. He also talked about the Zhang family packing their luggage to make way for the new master.
How many boxes were moved and then transported to another courtyard, how many boxes were missing, etc., "...the truck transporting the boxes went west. It took the waterway. It was small and useless, and the person following it was also lost. Then Cao taught
The Yu family and the Wangxian Cheng family both made some noise, as if they were moving, and they were moving out one by one... I reported it to our Lord County Master, who said that this was definitely not a coincidence..."
Cheng Pengju raised his hands to Lin Yutong: "Yes, this is definitely not a coincidence. I think that if you follow this line, you will definitely gain something..."
I met a person who couldn't carry it clearly and rushed forward with his eyes covered.
This is the kind of thing that makes you stupid while reading.
Lin Yutong directly nodded at the two people who were kneeling without saying anything, "This master will be the county magistrate, and the magistrate will be the county captain... After we go back, we can appease the people and don't make people panic. And Cheng Aiqing... you have done a good job."
The clue you mentioned is very important. Gu already has a plan... So, don’t act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy, do you understand?"
We probably all understand it!
Cheng Pengju was very happy. He felt that if it weren't for his face, a pian who had been working as a magistrate all his life would not be able to become a county captain, and a mere master Qian Tong would not be able to become a county magistrate. He who can promote subordinates is also a good official. This is called
He felt that he had gained prestige in front of his subordinates, which made him happier than any reward. Then he thanked him with great excitement.
However, Qian Tong and Sun Dianli understood that Taisun ordered them to watch out for Cheng Pengju and not to be too unreliable.
After sending the person away, Lin Yutong even laughed: "Sure enough, he still has no hair on his lips and can't do things well."
He is too good at figuring out what is best for him, which makes people unhappy. But he is not good at figuring out what is best for him, which makes people dislike him.
Before he had time to react, the imperial edict from the palace arrived.
Along with the imperial edict, there were also appointment documents for officials from the two provinces. It was delivered very smoothly.
Lin Yutong didn't pay much attention to this, but he pondered a little while holding the imperial edict asking him to rebuild the Wuchangsi.
Sanniangzi was not as happy as she expected. On the contrary, she showed a somewhat bitter smile: "Wuzhisi... and that woman are really destined... a bad fate!"
He died because of her and was resurrected because of her.
"She's not the only one who's affected by this?" What annoys Lin Yutong about this woman is that these people are not human beings in her eyes. She seems to be playing a game. Even if the game is over, she can still do it.
Resurrection and starting over. But everyone except her has only one life. She is tying up the whole world and playing a game with her that she doesn't want to lose.
From the palace to the people, who has not been affected?
Including the original grandson, he was also an indirect victim.
"If she doesn't seek revenge from you, I will seek revenge from her." Lin Yutong said, "Since it's called rebuilding the Wuji Division, let's rebuild it. It just so happened that I didn't know how to relocate those two groups of bandits. I originally thought
Send them to Liangzhou. Now it seems that there is really no need. You can just accept them where they are and fill them into the Wuchangsi. They are more reliable than those recruited elsewhere. That county magistrate... is not called Chengpengju.
Did you say you found any clues about the officials who were robbed? Just in time, you go to 'track down', then go to 'suppress the bandits', and 'rescue' all our imperial officials. These people don't need to go back to Jiangnan, they can be sent directly
Go to the capital. If you don't chop off hundreds of heads, you won't be able to scare those monsters."
Sanniangzi responded with a smile, "Yes": "Don't worry, not everyone is as cold-blooded as that young county magistrate. I will slowly...slowly look for clues..." As she said that, she couldn't help but
