The servant who was scolded shrank his neck and said in a low voice: "Sir, the guard of Xinpingbao is so bold and dares to let so many people out of seclusion. Why don't you inform the local governor about this? I think he will be punished. "
"Let's go to Xinping Fort. I want to meet the guard of Xinping Fort to see who gave him the courage to let the people go to the grassland." The middle-aged man on the carriage said coldly.
When a new official took office, he decided to burn the first fire on Xinping Fort and use the head of the guard of Xinping Fort to establish his authority.
Seeing that his master was going to Xinpingbao, the servant outside the carriage was overjoyed.
I have already thought about how to use the hands of the Xinpingbao guard to defeat those soldiers after meeting the Xinpingbao guard.
"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up." The middle-aged man on the carriage saw that the servant standing outside the carriage was still in a daze and scolded him.
The servant came to his senses and hurriedly said to the coachman: "Hurry up and drive into the city."
The coachman urged the animals and pulled the carriage towards the city.
There was a group of tiger-character flag soldiers guarding the city gate. When they saw the carriage approaching, they did not stop it and let it in directly.
Today, Xinpingbao is already the most prosperous place in the northwest. Businessmen from all over the country like to do business here, because only here can they buy a large amount of things on the grassland.
The streets of Xinpingbao are very simple. After the carriage enters the city, there is no need to inquire specifically. Just walk along the street and you will arrive at the Guerrilla General's Mansion, which was also the former General's Mansion.
After the coachman saw the plaque of the Guerrilla General's Mansion, he took the initiative to get off the carriage.
The servant jumped down from the car, put the wooden stool on the ground, opened the curtain with his hand, and said respectfully: "Master, we are here."
The middle-aged man on the carriage stretched out his head and glanced at the guerrilla general's mansion on the street, and then got off the carriage.
"Go call the door."
The servant quickly came to the stone steps outside the door of the Guerrilla General's Mansion, looked at the soldiers on guard outside the door, and said: "The patrol officer has arrived, please come out quickly to greet the superior officer."
The patrol censor is only a seventh-grade official, far inferior to the rank of a guerrilla general.
It can be said that it is the tradition of the Ming Dynasty to control civil servants and military officers. Civil servants are naturally superior to military commanders, especially a lowly and powerful official like the patrol censor. Even the commander-in-chief of a town has to worry about three points.
The people on duty outside the gate were all soldiers of the Tiger Flag.
One of the soldiers looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said, "Wait."
After saying that, he went into the guerrilla general's house to report.
The middle-aged man standing beside the carriage looked around leisurely.
As the newly appointed censor, he believed that the guerrilla general from Xinpingbao would immediately come out to greet him when he knew he was coming, otherwise he would not mind playing a book about him.
After receiving the news from the imperial censor, Liu Heng was reviewing official documents in his office.
The official documents he read were all sent from various places within the Tiger Character Banner, and the main ones were the official documents sent from the grassland.
After Chen Hongtao and others went to the grassland, it took less than a month to discover iron ore and copper mines near the Yinshan Mountains. Preliminary preparations for mining have now begun.
"Since the Inspector has arrived, let's go out to greet him." Liu Heng put down the official document in his hand.
Although the news of the appointment of the Datong Inspector has not yet spread, Tiger Flag has its own channels in the capital. Before the new Inspector has arrived, all the information about the new Inspector has been sent to Liu Heng's desk.
Liu Heng did not change his official uniform, but took Yang Yuan and a few soldiers with him and walked outside the guerrilla general's house.
"The official has met Mr. Pei."
As soon as Liu Heng came out of the guerrilla general's house and saw the middle-aged man beside the carriage, he guessed that the man was Pei Hong, who had just taken up the post of Datong's inspector.
"Hmph!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly after seeing Liu Heng coming out of the guerrilla general's house.
He was patrolling the censor in a dignified manner, but a guerrilla general just casually raised his hand when he saw him. He was already dissatisfied with Liu Heng, and now he was even more dissatisfied.
Before Liu Heng could speak again, Pei Hong walked towards the guerrilla general's house.
The servants on the side quickly followed.
"This guy has such a big air." Yang Yuan beside Liu Heng muttered.
Liu Heng and others followed him.
Arriving at the side hall where guests were entertained, everyone sat down separately.
Pei Hong sat on the main seat, looked at Liu Heng who was sitting next to him, his face turned cold and said: "Who told you to sit down? Stand up!"
As his words fell, Yang Yuan, who was standing next to Liu Heng, stopped.
"I'm sorry for you. You dare to say this to us adults. Believe it or not, I won't let you out of this door."
With that said, Yang Yuan took out the gun from his hand and pointed the gun at Pei Hong.
Although Pei Hong is a civil servant, he has also seen fire guns. Even if he has never seen such a small fire gun, he still knows that the power of this thing cannot be underestimated, especially at such a close distance.
Immediately, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Fortunately, the servants around him were loyal enough and stood in front of him. He yelled at Yang Yuan: "You are so brave. You dare to murder an official of the imperial court. If the imperial court finds out, it will definitely destroy your clan."
Liu Heng, who was sitting on his seat, picked up the tureen brought by the person below, put it to his mouth and took a sip, and then said: "Okay Yang Yuan, don't scare Mr. Pei."
Even though Yang Yuan was pointing his gun at Pei Hong, there was no gunpowder or projectiles inside, and it could only be used to hit people.
Yang Yuan looked at the panicked Pei Hong and sneered, then put away his gun.
At this time, Pei Hong felt that it was too reckless to come to Xinpingbao alone. The guerrilla general in front of him was not at all like he imagined, fawning over him in every possible way. Instead, he gave him a blow as soon as he came up.
"I don't know what you are doing here, Lord Inspector, when you come to Xinpingbao this time!" Liu Heng put down the tureen in his hand and asked Pei Hong who was sitting on the throne.
Pei Hong came to Xinpingbao at this time, and he didn't think that the other party was just here to take a look.
Pei Hong calmed down and said, "I heard that a large number of people are leaving the customs and going to the grassland through Xinping Fort. As the guard of Xinping Fort, why don't you stop them."
The tone was originally supposed to be questioning, but for some reason, it came out of his mouth in a tone of discussion.
"Has the Governor ever gone to see the Governor?" Liu Heng asked.
Pei Hong frowned and said, "Whether I see Governor Liu or not, what does this have to do with you letting the people go to the grassland?"
"Your Majesty the Inspector may not know something. The border troops in Datong Town just won a battle a few days ago. They expanded the border for thirty miles, and all these people went to farm in the Dunbao outside." Liu Heng said.
Pei Hong raised his eyebrows and said, "There is another matter, why don't I know about it?"
"My lord may have just taken office, so the governor hasn't had time to say anything yet!" Liu Heng said.
