As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers of the Su City Army in the martial arts field were in an uproar.

Immediately someone shouted: "Impossible, General You can't collude with bandits."

Yu Zhi looked at the other party and thought to himself: You Yuanju's prestige in Su City is extremely high. But unfortunately, he took the wrong path.

Yu Zhi did not refute. Amid many suspicious looks, he took out a token from his arms.

That is Chao Dabiao's token.

"Why is General Chao's token in your hands?" someone asked.

"Master Supervisor, where did General Chao go?"

Yu Zhi slowly said: "On the night when the bandits were wiped out, I found Chao Dabiao in the forest outside the mountain city. At that time, he had just walked out of the mountain city."

"The bandit leader is called Ying Chou. He admitted that he colluded with Chao Dabiao to rob people and caravans, and the money he obtained will be distributed to Chao Dabiao."

"Once upon a time, Su Ji and his soldiers also saw bandits secretly meeting Chao Dabiao. Although Su Ji has been dismissed from office, the soldiers in Su Ji's camp can prove it."

"I don't need to say more about who Chao Dabiao is. I don't need to say more about his relationship with You Yuanju."

Li Jun didn't speak and kept watching this scene quietly. The respect and support of You Yuanju by the officers and soldiers of Su Cheng Army is unquestionable.

At this moment, if he opens his mouth to help, he will definitely arouse the anger of the Su City Army officers.

The officers and soldiers of the Su City Army looked at each other. Yu Zhi took out the evidence of Chao Dabiao's crime. He could also ask Su Ji and his subordinates to testify. There are both human and physical evidence. This is the conclusive evidence of Yu Zhi's theory.

After a moment of silence, someone still said: "Master Supervisor, what you said is only evidence of General Chao's crime. How can you prove that General You is also involved? Maybe... maybe General You doesn't know at all."

Yu Zhi smiled slightly, knowing that someone would definitely ask this question.

Yu Zhi did not answer immediately, but said: "That night, You Yuanju led his bodyguard battalion to the mountain city. You Yuanju led part of the bodyguard into the city and wanted to surround and kill me, but unfortunately I killed him. The rest The personal guards were guarding the city gate, not allowing anyone to enter, even the county governor Zu Anbang was unable to enter the city."

"Don't you think this is strange? There are bandits in the city, but no one is allowed to go into the city to suppress the bandits. There has been no success in suppressing the bandits for half a year, but You Yuanju dares to bring the guard battalion into the city. Is it possible that You Yuanju is convinced that with hundreds of people Can the Guards Battalion wipe out the bandits?"

Yu Zhi's question made the entire Su Cheng army unable to refute.

Chao Dabiao's appearance outside Shanzhong City and You Yuanju's strange behavior proved that there was a problem between the two.

Yu Zhi was silent for a moment, waiting for the soldiers of Su Cheng Army to figure it out.

Immediately, Yu Zhicai said leisurely: "You Yuanju will be sent to Kyoto for questioning. If he is wronged, he can defend himself. So far, You Yuanju has not spoken."

Yu Zhi sighed deeply and said: "Many of your families have been robbed by bandits, and your families have been destroyed. I believe you all want to kill these bandits, but the bandits have lasted for half a year. The people of Sucheng County were also displaced for half a year."

"To be honest, when I went south, I thought that there were many bandits and they were cunning, so Su City's army was unable to do anything, so these bandits were rampant for half a year. But I had only been in Su City for a few days, and hundreds of mountain bandits were The bandits died in my hands, more than two hundred children were rescued, and the banditry subsided."

Yu Zhi glanced at the soldiers of the Su City Army for the third time. Those soldiers with wet eyes were from villages outside the city that had been looted by bandits. The soldiers with angry eyes have always been angry at the bandits...

Yu Zhi suddenly snorted and said coldly: "There is no need to waste a lot of time on banditry. Hundreds of bandits have delayed the Su City Army for half a year. In my opinion, the Su City Army is just a bunch of trash. Join the army. Those who want to keep peace, ask yourselves, have you done it?"

Yu Zhi's eyes were like sharp swords, penetrating the hearts of these soldiers on the martial arts field and bleeding.

"Yes, you acted under military orders and were deceived by You Yuanju. But now, You Yuanju is in jail. What have you done in the past two days?"

"Dejected and depressed? What I want to tell you is that you are protecting the county of Suzhou, and you are protecting the people, not You Yuanju. Even if you don't have a coach now, you still have to perform your duties as a soldier and protect the peace! "

Yu Zhi's voice and appearance are both serious. Now the morale of the military is unstable and it is necessary to stabilize the morale of the military.

"Everyone, are you willing to let the people of Sioux City call you trash?" Yu Zhi shouted.

The peaceful martial arts arena suddenly erupted into a chorus of uniform roars, which was shocking.

"I don't want to!"

"Very good." Yu Zhi said, "I hope you can prove to me that your Su City Army is not useless."

"The banditry has subsided. I've taken care of this for you. The next step is to help the people rebuild their homes. This is your Su City Army's chance to prove it! Starting today, in addition to daily patrols, Su City Army subordinates will go to the outside of the city in batches to help People.”

"Do you have any objections?"

All the generals immediately said in unison: "We will take the order!"

Yu Zhi nodded with satisfaction and explained You Yuanju's suspicion. He could have directly killed You Yuanju first and then played the game. Yu Zhi did not do this. Killing You Yuanju directly would probably cause a mutiny among the Su City Army.

Therefore, Yu Zhi chose to keep You Yuanju alive.

Now that the bandits have been wiped out, it matters whether You Yuanju dies sooner or later. What's important is what's going on behind the mountain city and the night ghosts.

Yu Zhi walked towards the outside of the military camp, with Li Jun following him.

Li Jun said: "Master Yu, the Su City Army has no commander at the moment. The general is incompetent, and I would like to take charge of the military affairs of the Su City Army for the time being."

With that said, Li Jun secretly handed over a stack of thick banknotes. The intention is particularly obvious.

Yu Zhi also accepted everyone who came, smiled in his heart, and accepted the banknote. He patted Li Jun on the shoulder and praised: "General Li understands the truth. I have to thank General Li these days. I believe General Li will hear good news soon."

After saying that, Yu Zhi quickly walked out of the military camp.

Li Jun understood this and said respectfully: "I will send you my best regards, Mr. Yu."

Li Jun thought to himself: It seems that this Yu Zhi is not inelegant. He can't avoid these yellow and white things. He talks about righteousness, isn't he a corrupt official?

.....

Yu Zhi walked out of the military camp, counting the stack of silver notes with his fingertips. One hundred and two pieces, ten in total. One thousand taels of silver.

Yu Zhi showed a sinister smile. Su Muchi raised money and made suggestions for him, and now Yu Zhi had another idea.

A mere deputy general gets a thousand taels of silver from his hands, but what about the other officials in Sucheng County?

The treacherous smile on Yu Zhi's face grew brighter, he mounted his horse and headed back towards Su City.

Wuhua did not return to the city with Yu Zhi. He still stayed in the mountain city to save the souls of the dead. After the salvation is over, Wuhua will come to Su City to look for Yu Zhi.

At this time, in the county magistrate's mansion, Zu Anbang was playing with the precious white parrot.

"Little guy, how do you think these people should be settled?" Zu Anbang still had a smile on his face, as if such a big thing was not worth mentioning in his heart.

"Oh, Master Xiao Yu is really going to give me a hard time. There is still money left in the Su City government office for these people to build the village. Little guy, tell me when will this living king of hell leave?"

Zu Anbang has been worried about where the money will come from. Although the various county offices in Sucheng County have collected some money, it is far from a drop in the bucket.

There is private property in Zu'an State, and in this wealthy Nanzhou Prefecture, officials are greedy for money far more than in other places.

But how can public affairs be settled with private property?

Zu Anbang couldn't bear to part with it, let alone unwilling to do so.

Su Ling was also in the governor's mansion, listening to Zu Anbang's words. Su Ling laughed and said, "Master Sheriff, according to your opinion, if Yu Zhi doesn't leave for a day, will our business be unable to start?"

Zu Anbang said: "Be careful with the ten thousand year ship. Mr. Su, you have also seen the tricks of Master Yu. Even You Yuanju was tortured into this state by him. If I am caught by him, Pigtails, even if you die, you will have to shed your skin."

Su Ling looked frivolous and didn't take Yu Zhi seriously at all.

"You can afford to wait, but the people above can't wait. If this business goes bad and the people above are blamed, you and I will be doomed."

Zu Anbang's eyes narrowed, and he really didn't like Su Ling's tone. If he hadn't accepted the Su family's love, how could a county governor have swallowed his anger like this?

Zu Anbang turned around and sat on the chair, with the same smile on his face. "I heard that Yu Zhi came to Su City with Su Muci's motorcade. You might as well ask Su Muci how to get Yu Zhi to leave Su Cheng County as soon as possible. This will make our affairs much easier."

Su Ling's thoughts were racing, and the figure of Su Muchi appeared in his mind. "Master Zu, why don't you say it clearly?"

Zu Anbang smiled and said: "Young man is romantic. There are so many caravans going south from Kyoto, why did our Royal Censor choose Su Muci's caravan? Mr. Su is also a young man, doesn't he know what's going on here? doorway?"

Su Lingbo sneered when he heard this. What Zu Anbang said was not unreasonable, and he had already begun to think about how to use Su Muci to deal with Yu Zhi.

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the house.

"Master Yu, Master Yu, you'd better wait for me to report and the county governor will greet you personally. Hey, don't intrude."

"Your ancestor and I are close friends. We feel like old friends at first sight. Why do we need so many etiquettes?"

"But Master Yu, please...slow down."

"If you stop me again, don't blame me for taking out Shang Fang's sword and cutting first and then playing!"

Zu Anbang and Su Ling looked at each other, and then Su Ling walked towards the back hall.

Zu Anbang also stood up immediately, and Yu Zhi also walked into the lobby.

As soon as he entered the door, Yu Zhi was not polite at all, like a dandy, he sat directly on the chair, crossed his legs and said: "Master Zu, there is no need to be polite."

Zu Anbang was stunned by Yu Zhi.

From Yu Zhi to Su City, Zu Anbang could not find any trace of Yu Zhi, and he had not seen Yu Zhi a few times, but nothing good happened every time Yu Zhi showed up.

Especially this time, Yu Zhi took the initiative to come to the door. The moment Yu Zhi's butt landed on the chair, Zu Anbang's heart tightened, and a bad premonition filled his heart.

What does this kid want to do?

Why do I feel so cold in my heart?

Zu Anbang looked at Yu Zhi tremblingly, but heard Yu Zhi say: "I heard that in previous inspections of the censor's hunting tours, local officials would take care of the censor's affairs. Why did it disappear when it came to my place? "

The reception banquet is a courtesy and a rule.

When the censor first arrives, officials from all over the country will also show their goodwill.

Some people are upright, some people are good at beauty, some people are good at money...

If you are not sure about the temperament of the censor, it is an excellent way to investigate at Jie Feng Yan.

Zu Anbang said: "It's all my fault that the official is too busy and confused."

But in my heart, I thought angrily: You disappeared as soon as you entered the city. I want to invite you to drink and eat meat, but I also need to be able to find you!

Zu Anbang is well versed in officialdom, how could he not want to get in touch with Yu Zhiduo?

But Yu Zhi didn't give him a chance.

Zu Anbang continued: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, why not today? Master Yu, what do you think?"

Yu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Today? Not so good."

"What do you mean, Master Yu...?" Zu Anbang's uneasiness became more and more intense. What kind of trouble does this kid want to make?

Yu Zhi crossed his legs and swayed, and said: "You ask the magistrates of the six counties in Sucheng County to come and have a meal together. I will get to know them by the way, and I will also learn about the situation in each county in Sucheng County. "

Zu Anbang naturally agreed. "I will ask someone to notify the magistrates of each county."

"Wait a minute." Yu Zhi stopped him, "I heard that Nanzhou is rich. I guess the officials in Nanzhou are also very wealthy."

Zu Anbang's heartbeat stagnated, and he even stopped breathing for a few minutes. "Then what your lord means is..."

"Hey." Yu Zhi deliberately frowned and said, "Don't you understand what I mean?"

"The lower official is stupid, this..."

"Okay, I'll give you some advice. To put it simply, I'm short of money, jewelry and jades. The more the better, antique calligraphy and paintings, and all comers are welcome. You can have more, but if there's less... Hum hum, I Let’s go and visit his territory.”

Immediately, Yu Zhi narrowed his eyes, stared at Zu Anbang, and asked: "Master Zu, do you understand what I said?"

This was the first time Zu Anbang encountered a corrupt official who acted so straightforwardly.

Lawless, simply lawless.

After a moment, Zu Anbang nodded blankly and immediately replied: "I understand."
