Chapter 91: Get your posture ready! Taishi Ankang is ready to lie down
…
Wei Wenxun on the side suddenly felt his scalp was pounding and he was so flustered. Does the head of the Shouzhe family really want to make arrangements for the county governor?
His old man is a member of the Purple Mansion... not Wei Wenxun, and he is definitely not someone who can pose however you want?
Wei Wenxun was really afraid that the county guard would get angry and implicate him, so he hurriedly winked at Wang Shouzhe, hinting that he should stop quickly and not really offend the county guard.
Unexpectedly.
Wang Shouzhe seemed not to notice his glance and continued: "Sir, in name, Longzuo County has half of the jurisdiction over Qingluo Sea. But in fact, because Longzuo County is too far away from Qingluo Sea, the jurisdiction is not strong enough.
.In addition, our Jin Port in the north of Longzuo County has weak control over the Qingluo Sea. As a result, the Qingluo Sea is now almost independent of Longzuo County and has become the exclusive sea area of Liaoyuan County."
As soon as this statement came out.
Taishi Ankang's face turned even darker. This guy Wang Shouzhe was just pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey. He was a dignified county magistrate, so he didn't have any face.
"But now, our Longzuo County's opportunity has come." Wang Shouzhe said seriously, "This time, such a big thing happened to the Cao family in Liaoyuan. To put it lightly, it is because of the self-respect of the bandits, but to put it more seriously,
, that is premeditated rebellion.”
"Not to mention Cao's subsequent self-care, did the governor of Liaoyuan County know about this matter? If he knew, he was an accomplice. If he didn't know, he would have neglected his duty and his jurisdiction was disadvantageous. But at this moment,
, our Governor Taishi of Longzuo County stepped forward in the face of danger, wiped out the Qingluohai group of bandits, and protected the country's sea. Comparing the two sides..."
"It's interesting." Taishi Ankang narrowed his eyes, as if he was a little moved.
"Sir, Qingluo Sea is named after the eldest princess!" Wang Shouzhe said in a low voice, "When Your Majesty was still the quasi-emperor's son, he gave birth to Princess Qingluo. He has always regarded it as a treasure. Now he is 30 years old
...Sigh, this person, the further back you go, the easier it is to remember your youth... If you wipe out the Qingluo Sea at this time, and then show off your military exploits, you can't bear to see the sea area with the name of the princess, and be attacked by a group of bandits.
It's a waste. By then, it will be easy to take back the jurisdiction of the entire Qingluo Sea."
Taishi Ankang was immediately excited. Although the struggle between emperor and son had gradually begun at this time, the actual transition of power did not happen overnight. The process could take as little as one or two hundred years, and as long as two or three hundred years.
And any great emperor will tend to be more sensitive as he reaches his later years and when power changes, and will hold on to power tighter. Therefore, the power of the great emperor now is greater than in the past.
This is one of the reasons why most high-ranking people and high-ranking families are unwilling to intervene in the battle between emperors and sons in advance. If one of His Majesty's sensitive nerves is offended, things will go badly wrong.
If Taishi Ankang can make great achievements based on this, he will have the opportunity to go further. By then, he will be able to deal with the future battle between emperor and son more calmly.
All the benefits are great, but Taishi Ankang still has some doubts: "Shou Zhe, according to your statement, it is no problem to take back the jurisdiction of Qingluo Sea, and it is no problem to please His Majesty. But after taking back Qingluo Sea, there are
What's the use? Once it's not properly managed, it won't be long before filth will appear again. By then, even if this county governor is given another dose of ginseng... I'm afraid he won't be able to eat it and carry it around."
"Your Excellency is very considerate." After Wang Shouzhe pretended to praise, he said seriously, "Our Longzuo County Jinggang is isolated outside, and it is indeed difficult to support a single tree. But we can set up another one in the middle of the Qingluo Sea Islands. Wei. It can be used as a commercial transportation turnover center in the North, and can also develop fishing, breeding and other industries."
"In the past, the fishery was weak because of insufficient transportation capacity. Now our Longzuo Shouda Trading Company's aerial cold chain system is becoming increasingly mature. It can easily transport high-end ingredients to various places in Daqian, which will generate huge economic benefits."
"I believe that the name of Qingluo Lenghai's precious seafood will definitely be heard throughout Daqian! I, Wang, am not very talented, and I am willing to work hard to create 'Qingluo Guard' for you."
Taishi Ankang was shocked. He planned and planned with this kid. His appetite was so big and his ambition was so crazy. This was not planning Qingluo Sea for Longzuo County. It was clearly planning for their Wang family. Qingluohai.
But I have to admit that with the ability that this boy Wang Shouzhe has shown before, he really has a high possibility of success.
Moreover, such a plan is not only beneficial to the Wang family, but also very beneficial to Taishi Ankang. After pondering for a moment, he looked at Wang Shouzhe with a more solemn look: "Shouzhe is really a good strategist, Qingluo Hai This move not only suppressed the Cao family in Liaoyuan, but also won huge benefits for the Wang family. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
"No, kill three birds with one stone." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile.
"That's right, hahaha." Taishi Ankang laughed cheerfully, "Master Shouzhe, come and try the Yunluo Immortal Tea that I have collected. This is a high-grade Immortal Tea from the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty. It has a nourishing spiritual platform. It has the effect of warming and nourishing the soul.”
"Thank you, sir." Wang Shouzhe was also polite, smiling and tasting the fairy tea with Taishi Ankang.
The two of them were drinking tea and chatting, as if they were "forgettable brothers" who have known each other for many years.
Wei Wenxun on the side was full of emotions, Lord County Sheriff, Lord County Sheriff, you got into position and lay down so quickly? No more insistence? Alas, speaking of it, it is really the ability of the Shouzhe family.
…
Liaoyuan County.
The main residence of the Cao family in Zifu.
As a family with a heritage of nearly two thousand years, the main residence of the Liaoyuan Cao family is so large that it is considered to be the largest even among fifth-grade families.
Looking down from the air, one can see criss-crossing streets, rows of houses, Guizhou tiles and cornices, and towering courtyard walls, making it a spectacular sight.
Compared with Wang's elation, Cao's morale seems to be low and the description is bleak.
Suddenly.
A white bird flew across thousands of mountains and rivers, fluttering its wings and sinking into the layered cornices.
Soon, a small bamboo tube made of spiritual bamboo, less than the thickness of a thumb, was delivered to the "Cangqin Courtyard" where the head of the family, Cao Bangning, lived.
This spiritual bamboo tube is carved with simple inscriptions and prohibitions, and the seal is carefully sealed with wax. You can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary object.
At this moment, in Cangqin Courtyard, Cao Bangning, the head of the Cao family, was discussing business matters with his aunt Cao Youqing in the study.
Both of their faces looked very heavy.
Obviously, the failure of Qingluohai's operation against Wang's caravan put a lot of pressure on them.
The general sent the spiritual bamboo tube and then left.
Cao Bangning picked up the spiritual bamboo tube and said in a deep voice as he opened it: "Auntie, the situation is very bad now. The Wang family was well prepared for our attack, and even secretly took pictures with the Tianji photo disk to deceive Bang Yan's words."
"I have already opened up the relationship before and told Kuniyan to grit his teeth and determined that what he said before was all arrogance on the spot. This is his private behavior and has nothing to do with our Cao family. Only in this way can we, the Cao family, have a chance.
Use your strength secretly to rescue him."
"Now the message gull has sent back the message, it should be a receipt."
Cao Youqing's face softened slightly: "Bang Ning, you handled this matter quite appropriately. Only by extracting Cao's family first can there be room for change. Don't worry, after the limelight passes, I will secretly help through my connections. That's it.
I have wronged Bang Yan and suffered for several years."
"Huh, what's there to be aggrieved about? If he hadn't done the work, wouldn't..." Cao Bangning, the head of the family, muttered and opened the letter. His expression changed instantly after just a few glances, "How is that possible?
Cao Youqing was also shocked, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose: "Is there something unexpected?"
"Bangyan, you stupid idiot!" Cao Bangning was so angry that his hands trembled, and then he slammed the table, almost breaking the thousand-year-old spiritual wood table into pieces, "He, he couldn't bear it and confessed."
"How is that possible?" Cao Youqing's expression turned ugly now, "How could Bang Yan be so careless?"
"It's all because the family pampered him too much since he was a child, and he has never been baptized by wind and waves in his life." The head of the family, Cao Bangning, looked livid, "Not only that, Ankang, the governor of Longzuo County, has already written a report, using the word 'Chuanyun Qingjiu'
'Urgent report! By now, the report has probably reached the Supervision Department in the capital, and maybe even the investigating envoys sent by the imperial court are on the way."
When he thought of this, he had a headache.
You should know that there are generally two ways for the county governor's office to submit reports to the court.
One is to send soldiers to Beijing with fast horses, changing horses every time they pass through a post station. Generally speaking, it takes more than half a month to go from Longzuo County City to Guilong City. If there is no emergency, the County Sheriff's Office will submit to
The court's daily reports followed this process.
The second type is the faith bird.
The imperial court specially domesticated a second-grade exotic spiritual bird "Chuanyunqingqingjiu" as a messenger bird. This messenger bird is fast, has strong endurance, and has the habit of identifying its nest. After training, it can fly even though it is tens of thousands of miles apart.
Identify the direction accurately and return to the nest.
County governors in various places have raised a certain number of "cloud-piercing green doves". Once an emergency occurs, they will release the messenger birds and rush the report to Beijing.
And at the speed of "Crossing the Clouds and Green Doves", it would take no more than three days to fly from the Longzuo County Sheriff's Mansion to Guilong City.
Taishi Ankang used "Chuanyun Qingjiu" to make it clear that he did not give Cao the time and space to operate, and was suspected of beating people to death with a stick.
In addition, the Supervision Department has always been very efficient in its work. Generally speaking, it does not take more than two days from receiving the report to selecting and dispatching the investigation team to investigate.
When an investigation envoy leaves Beijing, the standard equipment is a flying chariot.
At the speed of a flying chariot, the journey from Guilong City to Liaoyuan County would take more than ten days at the slowest and seven or eight days at the fastest.
The local officials in Liaoyuan County need the cooperation of the Cao family to manage the place well, so they will give the Cao family more or less face, so that they can discuss things easily when something goes wrong, but the investigative envoys from the capital will not give the Cao family this face.
Moreover, the charge of colluding with pirates is not a small one. Once found out, Cao will have to shed a layer of his skin even if he does not die.
In addition, Cao Bangyan is also a big problem.
He is the Zifu seed that the family has worked hard to cultivate. It is expected that in more than a hundred years, he will be promoted to the Zifu realm and prepare to take over the position of his ancestor.
If the person can't be fished out, all the family's investment over the years will be in vain, and maybe there will even be problems with the succession of the Purple Mansion.
The more Cao Bangning thought about this, the more he felt his head was bigger than his head and his temples were swollen. Damn it! What kind of bad luck did he have, and how did he get into all these troubles?
On the other side, Cao Youqing's face had already turned livid: "The letter said that it was Wang Shouzhe, the head of the Wang family, who was secretly fueling the flames. How could Wang Shouzhe be so virtuous that he could make Taishi Ankang determined to go against our Cao family?"
"Is Taishi Ankang crazy? What are the benefits of doing this?"
"Aunt Ninth, what's the use of talking about this now? Hurry up and think of a way to deal with the investigation of the Supervision Department." While Cao Bangning looked ugly, he couldn't help but feel some resentment towards Cao Youqing in his heart.
Aunt Ninth had previously vowed that dealing with the Wang family would be easy. First, cut off one of Qian's arms, and then slowly deal with the Qian family.
But I never thought that this was not a severed arm, it was clearly an arm removed by someone else.
"Aunt Ninth, why don't you trouble the person behind you to deal with the investigators of the Supervision Department?" Cao Bangning, the head of the family, said helplessly, "Otherwise, our Cao family will be in big trouble."
"My lord, he went to the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty." Cao Youqing's eyes jumped, "What's more, the Supervision Department is one of the three independent departments that specializes in supervising the violations of the laws of the government and aristocratic families all over the world. It is the Prince Lian and the Prince.
No one has the right to interfere! Even if the Lord is here, he can't change the investigator's course of action. Bunning, you can think of a way and clean yourself up."
Cao Bangning hesitated.
My younger brother Cao Bangyan is unreliable, and neither is this talented ninth aunt. He, the head of the Cao family... is too difficult.
…
same time period.
Qing'an County, the main residence of the Zuoqiu family.
The two Zifu ancestors of the Zuoqiu clan were sitting together with Xiaoyue, discussing the next plan of action.
Suddenly.
A delicate-looking maid came over holding a tray and respectfully presented the items in front of Xiaoyue: "Aunt Xiaoyue, this is the news from Fairy Yuqing."
Xiaoyue took it and took a look, her brows suddenly wrinkled.
Zuoqiu Deye, the first ancestor of the Zuoqiu family, saw this and his eyes became slightly solemn: "Something happened?"
"It's from the Cao family." Xiaoyue sighed, not even bothering to explain, and directly handed over the note in her hand.
Zuoqiu Deye took it and took a look, and was immediately furious: "The Cao family is a bunch of trash! They can't even deal with a seventh-grade family? They were beaten upside down and made so miserable. Are they a bunch of pigs? Xiaoyue
Fairy, is this the ally designated by Master Ce?"
Not to mention that Zuoqiu's moral cultivation was not good, no matter who his ally was, he would be pushed to the ground and rubbed as soon as he made a move, and his temper would not get better.
"Ahem~"
Xiaoyue coughed awkwardly: "Maybe Youqing was a little careless."
"Careless?" Zuoqiu Deye sneered, "A nouveau riche is a nouveau riche. He has strength but lacks foundation. It's okay not to use such allies."
"Senior Deye said that." Xiaoyue said hurriedly, "It's just a little accident. I have already prepared all the things that my master promised you, and they must be in the process of transportation now."
Zuoqiu Deye's face softened a little, and he looked at Xiaoyue with some admiration: "Finally there is someone reliable. In this case, we don't need to worry about the Cao family. Let us, the Zuoqiu family, combine the Longzuo Qian family and the
The Changning Wang family took care of it together."
In an instant, Zuoqiu Deye, who was already a bit old, showed a touch of excitement in his eyes. Once this plan is completed, the overall power of the Zuoqiu family will rise to another level, and they can even seek opportunities to break through to a third-grade family.
A third-grade family!
Zuoqiu has been in the fourth-grade family for too long, and he, Zuoqiu Deye, can't wait any longer.
