Two days later, Feng Changyu, Xizhen and other personnel sent to Qianyang City returned to Jingyun Village and brought back many conditions put forward by Han Daoxun himself.
Merchant ships from Xuzhou rarely leave the Yuanshui River. Even further away are Yuezhou and Tanzhou. In addition to the river bandits running rampant in the area from Yuezhou to Dongjiang'e, there is another main reason. Yuezhou and Tanzhou are the gateway to the 800-mile Dongting Lake.
The elite area has a prosperous population and many cities. The products produced in Xuzhou can be digested by being transported to Yuetan and other places. There is no need to take greater risks and transport them to Jinling and other places.
What's more, the ships plying on the Yuan River are too small to handle the strong winds and waves of the Yangtze River.
In addition to the four surnames who had to take the initiative to submit a letter requesting to give up the city order, and the two positions of jailer - because these two positions were filled by the local native surnames, it was the default practice of the previous dynasty.
The control of prefectures and counties was also inherited from the previous dynasty. Even Han Daoxun's memorial could not be approved by the officials. The most important point was to establish business relations with the warehouse controlled by the Linjiang Marquis Mansion. Feng Changyu, Xi Zhen
The others are naturally deeply surprised by such conditions, but it may be slightly better than paying for food directly.
If Feng Changyu, Xizhen, Yang Zaili, Xiang Jianlong and others still have too deep concerns, Han Daoxun will even allow them to handle official business in their respective villages.
Although such efficiency will be extremely slow, at least it will allow outsiders and the court to see that the entire state government system is still running normally, and the crisis of the whole matter will not be exposed, and there is no need to worry about who the court will hold accountable.
.
At the same time, as Han Daoxun, as the governor, even without Feng Changyu and others, he could decide all matters with his authority, and he would have fewer constraints. At worst, he could just ask Feng Changyu and others to make up for the official letters afterwards.
Feng Changyu, Xi Zhen and others could not refuse such a plan. Otherwise, would they really want to detain Han Qian, break up with the new governor Han Daoxun, and fight each other?
Even if Han Daoxun asked Feng Xuan to lead his men to join the cargo fleet, they had nothing to say.
When Feng Xuan entered Xuzhou as Han Daoxun, he was the first to come into contact with the lower-class natives of Xuzhou. As the governor, Han Daoxun had no way to deal with their four surnames at this stage. To win over and support the lower class of Shanyue natives can be said to be an open act.
Can they reject it directly?
Even if they refuse, will Feng Xuan definitely listen to them? Or can they still send their most core disciples to go on this business path that is full of unknown risks and may be secretly manipulated by Han Daoxun?
What they have to do, or what they can do, is to warn Feng Xuan and let him understand that no matter how strong Han Daoxun is, he will not be able to serve as governor in Xuzhou for several years. As a Shanyue tribesman, Feng Xuan will eventually take root in this area.
On the land, his wife, children, old and young, are still under the surveillance of the four surnames.
Feng Changyu, Xizhen and others still had many questions. Han Qian was in Jingyun Village and answered them in detail one by one.
Han Qian was a guest in Jingyun Village for four days. Feng Changyu sent his son Feng Jin to personally lead two awning boats and more than 30 village soldiers to escort him away from Jingyun River. Han Qian carelessly took the tied-up Mrs. Xi,
They were also escorted onto the awning boat and prepared to take them back to Qianyang City.
Seeing Han Qian, that bastard, using a rope to tie Jiuniang's neck like an animal and leading him aboard, the veins on Feng Jin's forehead twitched and pulsed faintly. He really wanted to pull out his knife and cut this bastard into pieces on the spot.
.
But Han Qian seemed to be completely unable to see the hatred in Feng Jin's eyes, or he didn't care at all. He just paid attention to the boatmen in Jingyun Village holding poles for boating. He could see that although the water in Jingyun River was very fast, even in the middle of summer, the water in the stream was still very strong.
It's not particularly deep.
And looking at the relatively relaxed expression of the stern worker, this also means that there are not many dangerous reefs that can destroy the ship and kill people on the twenty-mile waterway from Jingyun Village to Yuanshui.
Feng Jin really couldn't stand what Han Qian was doing, and couldn't really draw his knife to chop the offal into meat paste, so he made an excuse to board another ship.
"When marching in the mountains, you still need to pay attention to heavy rains and flash floods." Seeing that Feng Jin was put on another awning boat, Han Qian squatted on the bow of the boat and told Zhao Wuji, Tian Cheng, and Gao Shao how to make a simple rain gauge.
tube, and how to estimate the scale of floods released in a short period of time due to heavy rains in the mountains.
As a true elite scout, when spying on the enemy, the hydrological and geographical conditions along the way are all intelligence information that must be paid close attention to.
Gao Shao had served as a sentry in the enemy army of Da Chu in the past, specializing in spying on the enemy's situation. However, he regarded himself as a strong general, but he did not expect that Han Qian had so many things that he thought he was good at.
Unimaginable attention to detail.
Two awning boats went down the Jingyun River at a very fast speed. In just half an hour, they saw the mouth of the Jingyun River entering the Yuanshui River. The two waters met, clear and turbid. Feng Jin also saw a boat in the distance.
The galley was moored on the beach at the mouth of the creek. There were ten oarsmen and more than twenty soldiers, all of whom were capable. The leader was a gentle man. There was a scar starting from the bridge of his nose and across his entire cheek, but it was not necessarily a scar.
How ferocious.
Feng Jin heard Ji Kun talk about this person. He was Yang Qin, the leader of the water village in Poyang Lake. He was originally invited by Ji Kun to deal with Han Daoxun, but he didn't want this man to be ungrateful and was eventually recruited by Han Daoxun; Ji Kun left Jingyun
In front of the village, he also reminded them to be careful about Han Daoxun. Han Qian and his son were trying to win over each other to divide the local powerful forces in Xuzhou. However, his father, Xizhen and others did not think that Feng Xuanzhen could cause any trouble.
Feng Jin signaled the stern workers to dock the two awning boats. He had no intention of getting off the boat. He just bowed his hand to Han Qian, indicating that if he escorted them here, they would be returned to Zhao intact.
Han Qian stepped on the plank and boarded the galley. He saw Yang Qin curiously looking at Mrs. Xi who was tied up and led into the boat. He said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Xi will scratch your face a few times and this woman will give you a warm bed?"
Seeing that although the girl was pretty, her eyes were filled with sternness, and she looked like she wanted to eat someone. Yang Qin smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master must personally train this girl to be docile."
"Have you caught everyone I wanted to arrest?" Han Qian asked.
Yang Qin waved, and two of his men pulled the tied-up Ji Kun out of the cabin.
Feng Jin was shocked when he saw this scene.
Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Ji Kun quietly left when Jingyunzhai sent the people to negotiate from Guizhou and returned. Feng Changyu and the others expected that one day the ministers from Anning Palace and the prince's family would come to replace Han Daoxun as governor. Naturally, it was impossible to
Ji Kun's whereabouts were leaked to Han Qian.
Feng Jin never expected that Ji Kun would fall into Han Qian's hands in the end.
"Ji Kun, this dog thief, has conspired to poison my father several times. This time, thanks to Mr. Feng for your help, we were able to catch this thief so smoothly. Then I will give this dog thief's head to Mr. Feng today.
Thank you." Han Qian bowed his hand to Feng Jin and said very politely.
Unexpectedly, Han Qian opened his mouth and started talking nonsense. Feng Jin was so angry that the veins on his forehead were throbbing. He was too lazy to argue with the scoundrel Han Qian, but when he saw that Ji Kun had a wooden bead stuffed in his mouth, he could not speak, but his eyes were fierce.
Looking over, Feng Jin also knew that Ji Kun had fallen into the trap of Han Qian.
Feng Jin thought in his heart that those who are clear will be clean themselves. People like Ji Kun will only be deceived for a while. Is it possible that he can really be deceived by Han Qian's nonsense?
"It can be said that there are more than 700 people in Yangtan Water Village who died in the hands of this guy. Head Yang, I will leave this guy to you." Han Qian motioned to Yang Qin to execute the execution himself.
It would be false to say that Yang Qin had no hatred for Ji Kun, but Han Qian secretly sent a message through Gao Bao, asking them to capture Ji Kun alive. He thought that Han Qian wanted to save Ji Kun's life to avoid any conflicts with the Anning Palace.
Neither of them stayed, and they had no idea that Han Qian's final intention was to publicly execute Ji Kun on the riverside.
Isn't this too courageous?
Killing in secret means killing, destroying the corpses and removing traces, and everything is clean. But no matter what Yang Qin said, he was also a mid-level military attache in the Privy Council's Staff Division. Who can guarantee that with so many people present, no one would leak the news?
Although An Ning Palace and the Crown Prince's family knew this, they would not be able to openly expose it, but they would never be merciful in the way they deal with them in the future.
Han Qian just looked at the hesitating Yang Qin indifferently and asked: "Why, Master Yang, do you want to let Ji Kun go? Have you ever thought that if we make a wrong move, will this guy be the least bit merciful to us?"
"
Thinking of the men, women, and children who had been slaughtered by Zhong Yanhu in the entire village, Yang Qin felt a surge of hatred in his heart. He pulled out his saber, reached out and touched the joints of Ji Kun's neck.
On the deck of the boat, the blood from the neck gushes out like a fountain, spraying more than ten feet away, and falls into the stream, turning red, but is quickly diluted by the roaring stream and disappears.
At this time, Han Qian noticed that Mrs. Xi, who had a fierce look on her face and seemed to have no fear, suddenly shrank her eyes and turned away.
Han Qian cruelly grabbed her chin, stared into her beautiful eyes sternly, and asked: "What's wrong? Are you feeling distressed? Have you ever thought that if you listen to his instigation, you really want to kill me in Jingyun Village?"
, how many people will die in this land, and how much blood will be shed, before the trouble can be settled? Or, are the men, women, old and young around you all ants, and it doesn’t matter how they die or how much they die?"
Han Qian couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw that although Mrs. Xi's eyes were still full of resentment, there was a hint of confusion.
The so-called training is to roughly and directly defeat the things that the other party firmly believes in, causing them to doubt, be confused and even confused about what they believe in, and then instill other things.
At this time, Han Qian grabbed Ji Kun's head and threw it towards the awning boat where Feng Jin was standing. He raised his hand and said with a smile: "Master Feng, you're welcome. Take this thief's head back. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future!"
Seeing Ji Kun's head with a wooden ball stuffed in his mouth and eyes wide open as he stared at death, rolling on the deck, Feng Jin was also frightened, vaguely feeling the real enemy they would face in the future.
, maybe it’s not the new governor Han Daoxun, but the governor-general Han Qian in front of him who kills people without blinking an eye, right?
