Inside the workshop accounting room.
Watching Meng Shaoping's figure disappear behind the accounting room.
Xu Yi leaned back, crossed his hands behind his head, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
This day was a day of great harvest.
A bandit campaign, a post-war summary, and several hours of shameless questioning.
Invisibly, it deepened Xu Yi's understanding of leading the army.
And this is exactly what no amount of money can buy.
As for the more than 300,000 taels of gold and silver, it was purely an unexpected surprise.
The corners of Xu Yi's mouth raised slightly, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart: "Xu Yong and Ji Kai are really lucky stars." ,
Just when Xu Yi was leaning on the Taishi chair with his eyes closed, he was thinking about how to distribute the unexpected wealth of more than 300,000 yuan more rationally.
Suddenly there was a very familiar sound of footsteps outside the accounting room.
"Sixth Master, I would like to see the county magistrate." Yang Xianan stopped and spoke.
Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes and said calmly: "Please come to the accounting room."
"Yes." Yang Xian'an agreed and then left slowly.
In the accounting room.
'It's time to end this trip to Xialuo. ,
Xu Yi stood up slowly, stretched his body, and waited quietly for Hou Wenyuan's arrival.
After a while.
Hou Wenyuan walked into the accounting room with sweat on his face.
"Your Majesty, Hou Wenyuan, pays homage to the prince." Hou Wenyuan paused and saluted respectfully.
Xu Yi nodded slightly and then motioned for Hou Wenyuan to take a seat.
Don't wait for Hou Wenyuan to say thank you.
Xu Yi slowly asked: "Was everything calm last night?"
Hou Wenyuan bowed his hands in salute, and while slowly taking his seat, he answered: "Let me ask you, Your Majesty, everything was calm last night, no bandits were seen, and no people were seen going out without permission."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then said calmly: "The bandits have been eliminated. Let's tell the people later."
"Have the bandits been eliminated?!
Hou Wenyuan just sat down. After hearing Xu Yi's words, he jumped up from the stool like a conditioned reflex and looked at Xu Yi with disbelief.
How long had it passed since the bandits slaughtered the village, to when Xu Yi was surrounded, and then to the time when the bandits were wiped out?
'In less than a day, we found the bandits' lair and wiped them out. ,
'This...this...this is too...,
Thinking of this, the look of disbelief on Hou Wenyuan's face became more intense.
Xu Yi nodded and chuckled: "The bandit's body is still in Qishan Village at this time. We will find someone to transport it to the county government office later. This can be regarded as an explanation to the people of Xialuo City."
Hou Wenyuan nodded dully, still not fully recovered from the shock.
Xu Yi smiled, then picked up the tea cup and slowly tasted the tea without much fragrance.
I do not know how long it has been.
Hou Wenyuan came to his senses completely, quickly stood up and bowed his hands in a salute: "I am the official Hou Wenyuan. On behalf of the people of Luo, I would like to thank you for your great kindness."
Xu Yi chuckled, waved his hand, and said, "It is only the king's duty to protect the country and the people."
The words are over.
Xu Yi took out six signatures from the table and drew the postponed confession.
"This is the confession of the six principal criminals. There are three copies in total. One copy has been sealed in a memorial and will be sent to the court today."
"Bring a copy to Juyang City and hand it over to Commander Sun for decision."
"This last portion, I will give it to you today."
….
Xu Yi looked at Hou Wenyuan with a serious face, and then slowly pushed forward with his palm, pushing the six confessions in front of Hou Wenyuan.
Hou Wenyuan picked up the confession on the table with both hands.
Without even looking at it, he solemnly put it into his sleeve.
Then he bowed his hands and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely give an explanation to the people of Xialuo."
Hou Wenyuan paused for a moment before adding: "No matter who the real mastermind is.
"
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then said: "I have been away from Juyang for a long time, and I will return home soon."
"I will entrust you with the full responsibility to deal with the aftermath of the bandits."
As soon as this statement came out.
Hou Wenyuan immediately took half a step back, bowed with his hands high and bowed, and said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I would rather die to live up to your trust."
Xu Yi's move was tantamount to handing over part of his credit and fame to Hou Wenyuan.
In this way, Hou Wenyuan's foundation in Xialuo City will become increasingly solid.
Hou Wenyuan was once a scholar in the Hanlin Academy. How could he not understand such a simple truth?
Xu Yi looked at Hou Wenyuan who was saluting, and slowly stood up and walked towards Hou Wenyuan.
After patting Hou Wenyuan's shoulder gently, he slowly helped him up.
...
...
Three days later.
A three-column green-covered carriage slowly drove into Juyang City at dusk.
As the figure of the three-column green-covered carriage was guarded by more than two hundred cavalry, it slowly disappeared behind the city gate.
Juyang City, which was originally calm, suddenly felt suffocating as a storm was coming.
At the city gate.
Eye spies from different forces quickly dispersed the moment after the three green-covered carriages disappeared.
In the study room of Juyangcheng County Yamentang.
Sun Daohua sat behind the bookcase, listening to the news from his subordinates with a solemn expression.
"Sir, His Highness Prince Yan has brought back six sixty-year-olds."
"And the six old men in sixty were all tied in front of the cavalry."
A middle-aged man in servant clothes reported in a low voice.
Different from the informant who was killed before, this time the middle-aged man was just squatting at the city gate.
He didn't get close to Prince Yan's Mansion, nor did he follow or investigate.
Therefore, even Xu Yi has no reason or motive to continue cleaning up.
We can't kill everyone who has seen his whereabouts.
And the servant clothes with the emblem of the county government's house on it are more like a tacit understanding between Sun Daohua and Xu Yi.
Wait until the servant tells all the news in detail.
Sun Daohua waved his hand slightly and said, "Step back."
"Yes, sir." The servant bowed his hands and then slowly exited the side study, closing the door carefully.
After the side hall study became completely quiet.
Sun Daohua's originally solemn expression instantly became more solemn.
Three days were enough for Sun Daohua to clearly understand everything that happened in Xialuo City.
Don’t forget that after Xialuo City experienced the Xiongnu invasion, many middle-level officials came out of Juyang City.
'Time is running out. , Sun Daohua murmured to himself in a low voice with an extremely solemn expression.
After having several interactions with Xu Yi, Sun Daohua's intelligence was able to discern one or two aspects of Xu Yi's acting style.
….
If his guess is correct.
Tomorrow at Mao hour, the six sixty-year-olds will be taken to the county government office.
As for what will happen next, Sun Daohua can figure it out even if he thinks with his toes.
"There's no time." Sun Daohua sighed heavily, then stood up and walked out of the study room of the county government office.
Go to the back of the county government office.
Sun Daohua stopped a middle-aged servant.
Then he took out a famous card from his sleeve and solemnly handed it to the middle-aged servant.
"After nightfall, send the assassin to Prince Yan's Mansion."
"..."
"..."
"Remember?" Sun Daohua asked in a low voice with a solemn face.
The middle-aged servant took the famous assassination with both hands and quickly put it in his arms.
Then he cupped his fists and saluted and said, "Don't worry, sir, I've memorized everything."
"That's good." Sun Daohua couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then continued to warn: "Remember, nothing can go wrong in this matter."
The middle-aged servant's face straightened, and he once again clasped his fists deeply and saluted: "Please don't worry, sir. I would rather die to live up to my entrustment."
Sun Daohua stepped forward, patted the middle-aged servant's shoulder hard, and then said, "Go."
"Yes!" the middle-aged servant agreed, and then quickly disappeared into the dusk.
After the middle-aged servant leaves.
Sun Daohua sighed heavily, then raised his head and looked deeply toward the east of Juyang City, where Prince Yan's Mansion was.
at the same time.
South of Juyang City is the ancestral home of the Zhu family.
Zhu Huaimin sat on the nanmu Taishi chair at the top of Dexing Hall.
In front of him, Zhu Zongting, the eldest grandson of the Zhu family, calmly reported the news he had just received.
After a while.
Zhu Huaimin stood up slowly and said, "Zongting, prepare your horses and gifts, and follow your grandfather to Prince Yan's Mansion."
"Yes, grandpa." A flash of excitement flashed across Zhu Zongting's face, he bowed his hands and walked quickly towards the outside of Dexing Hall.
Zhu Huaimin looked at Zhu Zongting's quickly disappearing figure and smiled helplessly.
Then he walked to the book eucalyptus, ground it carefully and spread it with paper.
Write slowly on the white rice paper.
In the corner of the bookcase, there are several brand-new account books and several slightly messy letters.
...
...
West of Juyang City.
Inside the large tent of the Chinese army in Pinglu Xiaowei's camp.
Li Yu looked with a livid face at the soldiers in the tent who were wearing half armor and cupping their fists to salute.
The anger in his eyes was almost beyond words.
"Where are Ji Yuye and the others!"
"What on earth do they do for food?"
"How dare they let those six people live!"
"How dare they let Xu Yi take people back to Juyang City!"
After listening to the report from the personal guards.
Li Yu, with an ashen complexion, asked sternly in the Chinese army's tent.
"Subordinate...subordinate...I don't know."
In the Chinese army's tent, Li Yu's guard replied with his body trembling.
"I don't know?" Li Yu looked at the guard with a gloomy face.
Then he yelled, "A bunch of trash! Get out! Get out! Get out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu's bodyguard suddenly felt relieved.
How could he, the person responsible for keeping tabs on the news, know the whereabouts of Ji Yuye and others?
"Subordinate...subordinate resigns."
The bodyguard who was granted amnesty solemnly saluted with clasped fists, and then fell heavily toward the ground.
….
Then his body rolled and rolled out just as Li Yu said.
After the guards get out.
Li Yu stood up slowly with a gloomy face and kicked the table in front of him to the ground.
Then he raised his head and looked in the direction of Chang'an City.
In fact, even if we really dig into this matter, it has nothing to do with it.
The plan to force Xu Yi to leave Yandi was made by the man in Chang'an City.
The first executor was Zheng Guogong Ji Kai, who had been the governor of Shanggu County.
The actual executor is Ji Yuye from the Ji family.
It can be said that many things happened in Xialuo City.
Li Yu had no idea at all.
And it was precisely this lack of knowledge that made him angry.
Invisibly, Li Yu felt like he was isolated.
If not for the fact that Ji Yuye sent someone a letter afterwards.
I am afraid that he can only rely on Sun Daohua to learn the news in Xialuo City.
This feeling really gave Li Yu a feeling of discomfort like a lump in his throat.
"Straight bitch!"
I don't know what came to mind, Li Yu used it again
He blew the eucalyptus as hard as he could on the table that had fallen to the ground.
'boom! , after a loud bang.
The extra heavy table gum was kicked away two or three steps.
Just when the anger in Li Yu's heart had disappeared by 20 to 30%.
The bodyguard who had rolled out earlier turned back again, trembling slightly.
"Why are you coming back?" Li Yu asked sharply with a gloomy face.
The guard suppressed the fear in his heart, clasped his fists and saluted: "Go back to the young master and ask, Ji Yuye is asking for an audience outside the camp."
"Ji Yuye? He still dares to come!"
Li Yufang's anger, which had disappeared, returned to his chest in an instant.
"Let him in!" After a few breaths, Li Yu said sharply with red eyes.
"Follow the order!" the guard hurriedly responded with clasped fists and a salute, then quickly turned around and ran towards the outside of the Chinese army's tent.
Two quarters of an hour later.
A burly man eight feet tall, wearing a long black gown and a swaying face strode into the Chinese army's tent.
"Ji Yuye! How dare you come! Look at the good things you have done!"
As soon as Fang saw Ji Yuye, the unknown fire in Li Yu's heart suddenly rose.
When Ji Yuye heard this, his eyes flashed past the table that was kicked away.
Then he looked at Li Yu expressionlessly.
"What have I done that I need to report to you? Who are you?" Ji Yuye asked expressionlessly.
As soon as this statement came out.
Li Yu's anger completely exploded.
"Who am I?" Li Yu sneered with a gloomy face: "I am the eldest son of the current military general!"
"Concubine Li, who is currently in charge of the harem, is my aunt!"
"The current prince is my cousin!"
"Who do you think I am?"
The words are over.
Li Yu looked directly into Ji Yuye's eyes with a gloomy expression.
"Oh." Ji Yuye said oh, then reached out and took out his ears and asked, "Are you done?"
"You! You! You!" Feeling the carelessness coming from Ji Yuye, Li Yu could no longer control the anger in his heart.
[To be honest, I have been using @ recently.
No hindrance....
