Wu Nian frowned, thinking to himself.
"Just now he calmly gave my son a good name. Why is he like this now?"
Wu Nian let go of the horse's rein and asked a soldier to come up and hold the horse for Li Ya. He came to the corridor, raised his head and asked Liu Zhixing, "Zhixing. What happened?"
"General. Something happened in Yuan County."
Liu Zhi was walking so fast that he was out of breath. He bent down and rested with his hands on his knees before handing the black-covered book to Wu Nian.
At present, all official documents in the three counties use this system.
"Yuan County?" Wu Nian's eyes flashed. The county magistrate over there is Wang Youxiao, and the guard is Zhang Jin. What could happen?
Judging from Liu Zhixing's expression, it didn't seem like there was an invasion from a foreign enemy.
Wu Nian shook his head, reached out and took the folder, opened it and read it. After reading it line by line, Wu Nian's face turned black and he cursed: "I just relied on one chance after another to take back the three counties from the Meng Yuan people. The Meng Yuan people are still strong. They are tyrannical and are watching with eager eyes. But some people think that the world is peaceful. I really don’t know what to say."
Wu Nian angrily threw away the book in his hand.
"Hey." Liu Zhixing sighed, folded his hands on his lower abdomen, and remained silent.
"Dad. What happened?" Seeing that her old father was angry, Li Ya quickly got off her horse, came to Wu Nian's side, hugged Wu Nian's arm, and asked in a low voice.
"Uncle." Zhang Zhen put away the steel knife and came to Wu Nian covered in sweat, cupping his fists and saluting.
"It's okay. You can either practice martial arts or ride horses. Just do your own thing." Wu Nian waved his hands towards them, then looked up at the soldiers and said, "Call five hundred households and follow me to Yuan County. "
Having said this, Wu Nian looked up at the sky and said, "Let's set off tomorrow."
"yes."
A soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Li Ya and Zhang Zhen looked at Wu Nian, turned around and left obediently. After a while, Wu Nianping calmed down, bent down to pick up the folded book he had thrown away, and patted the dust. He raised his head and said to Liu Zhixing: "Zhixing. Go back."
"Yes." Liu Zhixing bent down and walked away with steady steps.
Wu Nian sat on the bench and opened the folder again and started reading. This time he didn't curse, but his brows were furrowed.
Things are not complicated.
Now that life is getting better, some people are starting to enjoy themselves.
There is a hundred households under Zhang Jin's command, named Liu Zhongting. He was a veteran from the time when Beishan Fort raised troops. He accumulated military exploits and became a hundred households.
In the year of Wu, the finance here was not rich, and the soldiers had no food and salary. But as an official. Small banners, general banners, hundreds of households, thousands of households, etc. will be given a certain amount of money.
There are also military merits divided into fields and houses, and given to maidservants and domestic slaves.
Liu Zhongting accumulated military exploits to hundreds of households, received many good things, and lived a good life. But this man is greedy and arrogant.
He actually learned from the bad habits of former Liaodong generals and used soldiers as tenants. Cultivate a field for him and build a house for him.
Wu Nian knows best what the generals of Liaodong were like in the past.
Now the Mongolian people are still in Liaodong and have strong strength. This guy is already like this.
This guy has shit in his head.
If it were just like this, Wu Nian wouldn't be so angry. Liu Zhongting also killed a concubine. Although this concubine has entered the husband's family, her status is low.
There's nothing we can do about it.
But it is still a human life. Liu Zhongting always has to give a reason when he kills someone. If the concubine Hongxing cheats on her or commits other crimes. You can sue the official to handle it.
Liu Zhongting did not report it to the official, but killed him privately.
But when something like this happened, the army didn't report it. That is to say, other hundreds of households, thousands of households, and Zhang Jin, the captain, either don't know or turn a blind eye.
This matter was discovered by Wang Youxiao, the magistrate of Yuan County, and reported to the police.
Wang Youxiao personally led people and detained Liu Zhongting.
I don’t know what’s going on now. Will the army cause trouble?
"Brother, brother. What are you doing?" Wu Nian felt helpless in his heart. The eldest brother Zhang Jin has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he is also excellent at leading troops in battles.
What happened this time?
This matter may cause a big fuss.
Wu Nian had to take care of it.
same day. Wu Nian arranged private and official matters, and went there early the next morning. Then he led five troops from one hundred households and rushed to Yuan County.
.............
Yuan County.
Since Wu Nian captured the city, the population that had fled to Beishan Fort returned, allowing the city to regain some of its former prosperity.
After Wang Youxiao took office, he also did a lot of practical things.
Build water conservancy projects, encourage farmers to cultivate, and build schools.
He took out all the governance methods he mentioned in front of Wu Nian that day. Although his time as county magistrate was still short, his prestige had been established.
As long as this continues, great governance in the county will be just around the corner.
But today, something big happened in Yuan County.
Wang Youxiao took advantage of Liu Zhongting's unpreparedness and took all the government officials to arrest Liu Zhongting and forcibly escorted him back to the county government.
Liu Zhongting's soldiers and colleagues were dissatisfied and gathered around the county government office.
The gate of the county government office was closed tightly, and the government servants and domestic slaves were hiding in the county government office, shivering.
Four to five hundred warriors were either holding steel knives or spears, and there were also archers who drew their bows in a full circle and assumed an attacking posture.
"Wang Youxiao. You are a dog magistrate, please release us Liu Baihu immediately. Otherwise, we will attack the county government office and find you out."
"That's right. Don't think that because you are a county magistrate, we dare not do anything. We are soldiers under the general's command and have shed blood for the general."
"Wang Youxiao..."
A few leaders stood up and yelled at the county government at the top of their voices.
Arrogant warriors and fierce generals, murderous intent soaring to the sky.
In the county government office, in the hall.
Wang Youxiao was wearing a blue gown and sitting in the main seat with an expressionless face. Liu Zhongting stood in the hall, being tied up with five flowers. There were four government officials watching beside him, looking nervous.
This Liu Baihu is also brave and good at fighting.
Even though they were tied up by Wu Hua Da Da, they did not dare to let down their guard.
"Wang Youxiao. I told you to meddle with your own business. Is something going to happen now? I'll tell you. Let me go before things get too big. I'll pretend that nothing happened."
Liu Zhongting raised his head, revealing a face full of flesh, and looked at Wang Youxiaodao rebelliously.
"It's too late. The matter has already become a big deal. I have already sent someone to deliver the zhezi to the Fu Han General's Mansion." Wang Youxiao glanced at Liu Zhongting and said.
"Haha. Don't scare me with the general. When I followed the general and shed my blood, you didn't know where you were. General, kiss me or you?"
When Liu Zhongting heard this, he was not afraid. Instead, he raised his chest and showed pride.
