Chapter 39 Catching Fish
The soldiers set up camp in the city. Yin Shenglong dealt with the county magistrate. Han Yuanhong suddenly came over and bowed with a smile, "But Huang County Zun?"
The county magistrate hurriedly replied: "It's the lower official, I don't know what the general calls him?"
"Boy Han Yuanhong, now he is added to the position of military supervisor!"
County Magistrate Huang's mind changed and immediately understood his identity. His eyes lit up: "Ah, it turns out to be General Han! General Han is here, and the subordinates are in a misfortune. Please forgive me!"
He bowed repeatedly, his expression almost flattering.
"Hahaha, Lord Huang, don't be polite. Today I saw the county governing the place, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. I am really a role model for our officials!"
The Huang County Magistrate looked even more excited: "The general has been awarded too much, and it is the duty of the subordinates. The general came from afar and worked hard all the way. He also invited him to stay in the mansion for a while, so that the subordinates could fulfill their friendship as landlords!"
Han Yuanhong waved his hand: "Mr. Huang doesn't know that I have something to do. I am now in a position to be punished and I am inconvenient to move!"
When Huang County Magistrate was stunned when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Yin Shenglong, and Yin Shenglong snorted coldly.
"Since that's the case, then forget it! The Xiaguan held a banquet in the mansion tonight and invited two generals to enjoy the glory. This should not be difficult, right?"
Yin Shenglong frowned slightly, but finally agreed.
"Excellent! The official is going to prepare now!" Huang County Magistrate left with a smile.
"General Yin is busy. I must take a good rest and take a good rest to attend the evening banquet!" Han Yuanhong restored his previous fearless expression, as if no matter how serious the crime is, it has nothing to do with him, and everything is under control.
Yin Shenglong's expression turned cold and he signaled to the guard beside him, and someone immediately followed him.
As a bystander, Xu Yan looked at his back and thoughtfully.
The night is drooping and the stars are shining.
The soldiers who had been hungry for a long time finally had a full meal, and a lively dinner began in the county jail.
There were a table full of chicken, duck, fish, and local specialty rice wine. Three maids danced old-fashioned dances, and musicians next to them played and sang.
After several refusals, Han Yuanhong sat in the main seat, and Huang County Magistrate sat aside with a smile, followed by the county magistrate and county magistrate.
Yin Shenglong sat on the right side, next to Hu Zi and two generals in the army.
Yin Shenglong glanced at the hall and asked, "Where is Rong'an?"
Hu Zi held the pig's trotter and said while gnawing: "He took a team of personal guards to the outside of the city to catch fish!"
"Catch fish?"
Yin Shenglong asked in confusion: "What fish are you catching this big night?"
Hu Zi shook his head: "I don't know either!"
Yin Shenglong thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he had to give up. County Magistrate Huang pulled him to toast, and Yin Shenglong responded and drank a glass.
The meal did not last until late at night, and the guests were having fun. Yin Shenglong watched Han Yuanhong enter the military tent and ordered people to guard the door, so he felt relieved.
On the other side, the drunk county magistrate Huang was helped into the backyard by his servant. The county wife Sun helped him wash, and he couldn't help but nag.
When the servant left, County Magistrate Huang, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up, his eyes shining brightly, and he looked drunk.
"Master, are you okay?" Sun was shocked.
"Silence!"
County Magistrate Huang covered her mouth and walked carefully to the door. He looked outside the door first, then reached out and closed the door.
He took out a letter from his arms and a crystal green jade pendant, which was not an ordinary person at first glance.
"Master, is this?" Sun looked at the jade pendant and couldn't open his eyes for a moment.
County Magistrate Huang looked excited. He put the jade pendant on the table, then picked up the letter and checked it carefully.
The envelope is sealed with fire lacquer, with the words "Father's Father's Revelation" written on it, and there is no trace of the others.
County Magistrate Huang licked his lips, remembering that when he was toasting before, Han Yuanhong secretly sent a letter to him and whispered, "If you send it to the mansion, you will definitely thank you very much."
His heart suddenly became hot, and he turned his head to the stunned Sun, saying, "Go and call your brother, don't disturb others!"
"I'll go now!"
Sun quickly walked out the door and quickly brought a thin black man. He walked in and asked with his fists: "Brother-in-law called me over late at night, but have you ever asked me?"
County Magistrate Huang closed the door, held his hand, and lowered his voice: "There is something! There is something big! This matter is related to our family's future glory and wealth. If it is done well, the descendants will be free of worries!"
The man looked slightly shocked and asked, "What's the matter?"
County Magistrate Huang took out the secret letter of fire and handed it to him with the jade pendant: "I want you to leave the city right now, hurry up and rush to Chang'an, and send this letter to the Duke Xin's mansion. This jade pendant is a certificate. Do you remember it?"
"Duke of the State?"
The man was shocked and thought he had heard it wrong.
"right!"
County Magistrate Huang lowered his voice and said, "You must hand it over to Duke Xin with your own hands. Others cannot do it. This matter is of great importance and must not be disclosed. Now you are the only one I can trust. This is one hundred taels of silver. Take it and eat and drink on the road. Remember, be sure to deliver it as soon as possible!"
The man was full of questions, but seeing that County Magistrate Huang was so anxious, he had to swallow it.
He put the letter and jade pendant in his arms, took the silver, wrapped it in thick clothes, went to the backyard to lead the horse, and quietly left the county town.
A waning moon hangs in the sky, and the night wind whistles, making it look even colder and quieter.
The man wrapped his clothes tightly, squinted his eyes to identify the road, then shook the whip and ran forward.
However, before walking a hundred miles, the running horse neighed, tripped by the ropes in the dark, fell to the ground, struggled for a long time but couldn't get up.
The man immediately flew out and hit the tree hard. Without even a snorting, he fainted.
There were rustling plants on both sides, and a few people suddenly appeared, lit torches, and Xu Yan was the leader.
After stomping his numb feet, Xu Yan asked someone to drag the man over, stripped him naked and searched his whole body, and found the secret letter and jade pendant.
He sneered: "Sure enough, there are fishes that escape the net!"
He never thought that a noble man like Han Yuanhong would obediently accept his crime and accept punishment. When he saw Huang County Magistrate today, he was worried and led his people to ambush outside the city, and indeed grabbed the messenger.
No need to think, this letter must have been sent to Chang'an. Who made him Mr. Han have a good father?
"Brother Xu, what should I do next?" a sergeant asked.
"Take the man up and return to the barracks!"
At this time, the camp was very quiet, and most of the soldiers fell asleep. Xu Yan went directly to Yin Shenglong's tent and sent someone to call Hu Zi.
When everyone arrived, he took out the jade pendant and wrote down the cause and effect.
"This turtle son is indeed restless!" Hu Zi cursed angrily.
Yin Shenglong tore open the envelope, pulled out the letter inside, and looked at the candlelight.
Xu Yan didn't know what was written on it, but just looking at Yin Shenglong's gritting expression, he knew it was not a good thing.
"Damn it"
Yin Shenglong shouted angrily, pulled out the knife suddenly, and rushed out of the tent with murderous intent.
Xu Yan and Hu Zi were both stunned and hurriedly chased after him. Looking at the direction he was running, it was obviously going to find Han Yuanhong.
"Huzi, go and find your second brother's personal guards and ask them to surround Han Yuanhong's tent. Once they fight, no one is allowed to be let go. Then order the entire army to be martial law in the camp, and those who are unmoved will be killed without any punishment!"
After Xu Yan finished speaking this in one breath, Hu Zi agreed and hurriedly ran to pass the order.
Xu Yan took the guard behind him and followed Yin Shenglong to Han Yuanhong's tent. There were many people standing inside, and the atmosphere was tense.
Han Yuanhong was also cautious enough. He had been with the guards these days. Yin Shenglong suddenly broke in, and these people immediately held their swords and were on guard.
Yin Shenglong held the letter, his eyes turned bloody, and said word by word: "The general Zhao Shouting, the Great Conquering the West, had an affair with foreign enemies, refused to obey the orders, had the intention of rebelling, and sent troops without authorization, resulting in the defeat of the army. The national law is difficult to tolerate. Please ask the Empress Dowager to issue an order to kill the nine clans!"
"Is this your report? I'm so blind, I actually believe you!"
Han Won-Hong retreated and panicked: "I don't know what you are talking about!"
"You caused the general to die, and tens of thousands of soldiers to die on the battlefield. Not only did you not regret it, but you falsely accused and framed the court and turned black and white. Do you really think your Han family can cover the sky with just one hand?!"
