Chapter three hundred and seventy seventh skynet
The news that the new Huazhou governor Jiang Anyi was attacked and appeared in the imperial study room three days later. Shi Fangzhen was shocked and opened her eyes wide and looked at the spy carefully.
"On May 18, Jiang and his group of twenty-five people were attacked and killed by more than 100 Yuantian Sect people on their way from Han Mansion in Wenjin County. Four people were killed. Two were seriously injured. Thirteen people including Jiang were injured. Seventeen bandits were killed. There were bandit leaders inside, Zou Changqing, the pseudo-Grand of Great Qi, and the bandits used more than ten consecutive crossbows. According to investigation, this robbery was caused by the remnants of the Yuantian Sect in Qingshanshuizhai."
Long Wei's urgent comment was transmitted through a carrier pigeon, and there was no large amount of content. The report of more than a hundred words revealed many major events. In broad daylight, he robbed and killed the head of the mansion again on the official road. How brave the bandits of the Yuantian Sect were? Shi Fangzhen felt his hands trembling, and he couldn't tell whether they were scared or angry.
Feng Zhong stood aside with his hands down, secretly observing the emperor's face. Xin Fei described the situation in more detail from the report sent by the secret guard. Killing Zou Changqing was counted on the secret guard. Feng Zhong remained calm on the surface, but was secretly happy in his heart. The secret guard suppressed the dragon guard this time.
Shi Fangzhen ordered: "See King Xuanning and Han Zhijin."
He stood up irritably, Shi Fangzhen took a few steps in the study, forced himself to sit back to the desk, and read it carefully. Yuantian Sect had snatched three crossbows in Qingzhou. Shi Fangzhen knew about this. Now the bandits of Yuantian Sect actually used more than ten crossbows. Where did these crossbows come from? Didn’t his strict orders take Anxi Protectorate’s House to heart, and there were still weapons leaking out.
Especially the previous month, the Longwei of Huazhou reported that the newly developed four-arrow crossbow was stolen and sold, and the clues pointed to the Yuantian Sect again. The Yuantian Sect bandits were involved in the escort agency, and the Han Mansion was the manager of the Han Mansion. Where are these bandits hiding now? This group of people are like fleas. The army was wandering around when they surrounded and suppressed them. If they were a little relaxed, they would come out to cause trouble. It was really a headache.
The group of Yuantian Sect bandits in Qingshan Shui Village escaped from Zhu Yupu. As Yang Huaiwu guessed, Yuantian Sect bandits appeared in Qingzhou for disaster relief, spies appeared in Anxi Protectorate, loose military discipline and stolen military ordnances, slow rescue of the Western Regions invaded Huazhou, etc., which made the emperor dissatisfied with Zhu Yupu. He was so loyal to the Zhu family for generations and loyalty to the country that he issued an order to recall Zhu Yupu and acquiesced to accept the position of Taiwei.
Yang Xiangliang's secret commentary was taken from the side of the table, and the military information of the Anxi Protectorate was reported in detail. Zhou Zongxuan, the army of Mei Hongmin's subordinate, was robbed. He negotiated with Jiang Anyi for 800,000 taels of pass-through silver for a year and was clearly written on it. Yang Xiangliang knew very well that the emperor should not hide anything from you, so that even if he made a mistake, the emperor would be tolerant. At this point, Jiang Anyi had suffered a loss. He and Xinfei had a marriage request to marry him and were demoted to Fuluo County because of his vague words and intention of deceiving the emperor, and his career was almost blocked.
Yang Xiangliang was trustworthy, and Jiang Anyi was even more kind to him. Judging from his actions, he was loyal. Perhaps this time it was an opportunity to catch all these fish that were missing in Huazhou and eliminate the troubles of his confidants. Thinking of this, Shi Fang's frown slightly loosened his brows.
"King Ning, the chief commander of the Longwei, Han Zhijin."
With the eunuch's voice, King Ning and Han Zhi stepped into the imperial study room and bowed to the table. Both of them were worried. Since the Yuantian Sect bandits gathered in Qingzhou, the status of Longwei had plummeted and was often scolded by the emperor. The secret guards gradually became more powerful and had the potential to replace them. If King Ning was not the governor of Longwei, Longwei would have probably become a subordinate organization of the secret guards.
"Sit." Shi Fangzhen asked the little eunuch to bring to the Embossed Dragon Dun and let King Ning sit down. Han Zhi stood behind King Ning cleverly.
Ning Wang and Han Zhi naturally knew that Jiang Anyi was robbed and killed. The two were discussing how to report back to the emperor. The emperor's summons arrived and came to see him with a tough bullet. The two thought that a scolding was indispensable, but they knew that Guoyu's study was still calm and the emperor was not angry. Ning Wang's heart was a little calmer. With his understanding of his brother, it means that the emperor had something to do and asked Long Wei to discuss it.
Sure enough, Shi Fangzhen asked: "Fang Shou, the governor of Huazhou Ren Jingchen was assassinated the last time. I ordered you to send a master of Long Guard to Huazhou to capture the murderers. I don't know what the situation is? There is also a reward for the Jianghu Sect, how is it going?"
Ning Wang thought that Huazhou is so big that it is no less than finding a needle in a haystack. Where can I find it? As for the sects in the world, I would not be able to contribute without a heavy reward. What's more, there are many masters among the remnants of the Yuantian Sect, so how can ordinary people in the world be able to deal with it?
Thinking of this in his heart, he replied: "When I returned, I sent more than 40 entourages to Huazhou. Qin Ziyan followed Jiang Anyi to Huazhou to serve as the chief of Longweizhou. I selected ten elites from Longwei Mansion to follow him to the office. As for the rewards from the Jianghu, I sent the notice to the Caidiemen, Liuhuamen, Zichenmen and other ten major sects to the court, promising to arrest the Yuantian sect bandits and reward five hundred silver for one of them and promoted the eighth-rank Longwei Dianshi. However, according to reports, these Jianghu sects are preparing for the 20-year Jianghu ranking competition, and are not interested in helping the court."
Shi Fangzhen snorted angrily and said, "Whether the land is the king's minister, are these people from the world? Are these people from the world arbitrarily banned by martial arts, and these people from the world arbitrarily do not listen to the court orders. I will deal with them sooner or later."
After getting angry, Shi Fangzhen said, "There are too few people in the forty priests, Long Guard should send more people to Huazhou."
Ning Wangdao: "Emperor Brother, Long Wei has no more than a hundred people. If I draw more people to Huazhou, I am afraid I will not be able to ensure the safety of the imperial city. All things are to put the safety of the emperor first."
Shi Fangzhen didn't say anything. King Ning's words were reasonable. No matter how rampant the Yuantian Sect remnants in Huazhou were, they could not be as important as the safety of the imperial city.
Feng Zhong bowed and reported, "Long live, the remnants of the Yuantian Sect are at a dead end. If you force them too quickly, you will be anxious to jump over the wall. It is better to order the counties in Huazhou to step up their prevention and search for suspicious people in the four gates of the shadows. Don't you leave 10,000 troops in Huazhou? You can let these troops station at key levels and strictly prevent bandits from escaping."
Shi Fangzhen nodded. Although Mei Hongmin's 10,000 troops were stationed in Huazhou, the Huazhou governor did not have the right to transfer. This time, in order to capture the remnants of the Yuantian Sect, it seems that Jiang Anyi will be dispatched in a unified manner.
"I have heard a saying, 'When you are united, you are strong, and if you are divided, you are weak.' Long live to take over this group of Yuantian remnants in Huazhou, I am afraid that I will mobilize the local, army, dragon guards, secret guards and other forces to form a joint force." Feng Zhong discussed with Huang Xi in advance, and said that the countermeasures were orderly. He heard Shi Fangzhen nodded frequently and signaled Feng Zhong to continue talking with his eyes.
Feng Zhong received the praise and became more excited, and his sharp voice became high. "The local government affairs are headed by the governor, and the military can temporarily reside in the governor of Jiang. There are only 30 Long Guards in Huazhou, and only the secret guards are Lu and Yan Dianshi (Siyu). The power is really weak. Forty worshipers are each doing their own affairs, which is probably a mess, and it is difficult to have great use. The old slave thought that Supervisor Lu was once the deputy governor of the Long Guard, familiar with the rules of the Long Guard, and the Qinzhou General of Huazhou was once her old subordinate. It would be better to let Supervisor Lu take over the general, and ordered the forty worshipers to temporarily obey the command, and secretly mobilize the Long Guard forces of the nearby five prefectures to form a siege net in the four territory of Huazhou. After the governor Jiang found out the hiding place of these thieves, he would work together to fight without worrying about the thieves not breaking."
"Well, Feng Zhong said it well. It seems that you, the secret guard, are doing quite competent. You should discuss this matter carefully with the Chief Han, and report it to King Ning, and then let King Ning tell me." Shi Fangzhen gave King Ning face, and on the surface, he equalized the secret guard and Long Wei. King Ning stood up and bowed with Han Zhi and Feng Zhong to answer "yes".
In Huazhou, since the governor of Dajiang entered the Huiye Mansion from the west gate with several cars of bodies, the officialdom was in silence, and everyone looked at the government office with nervousness. After Jiang Anyi returned to the yamen, he convened Zhang Biejia and Hua Sima, and asked him to temporarily handle government affairs, while he returned to the back house to recuperate.
Zhang Wenjin originally wanted to wait for Jiang Anyi to come back and let him deal with the prisoner detained in prison, so that the human trafficking case would be settled as soon as possible. Now that the assassination incident has occurred, Zhang Wenjin is shocked and scared. Although it was not him who assassinated, the rabbit died and the fox was sad. As a different person, he was also panicked. The thieves from the Yuantian Sect were red in their eyes and did not care about whether they had a relationship with the governor Jiang.
On the other hand, Zhang Wenjin was also afraid that Hua Zheng was confused and did it with the name of the Yuantian Sect. At this time, he wanted to clarify himself and never dared to mention human trafficking. He heard that the governor Jiang had the reputation of "Erlanzi". The governor, who was only in his early twenties, was robbed and killed, and he was not allowed to vent his anger. He did not want to be a punching bag at this time.
Compared with the silence of the officialdom, the public's discussions were sensational, and various speculations became more and more strange. Some said it was a killer sent from the Western Regions, some said it was a remnant of the Yuantian Sect, and some said that the governor Jiang offended people, and the implicit intention was to point the finger at the Huazheng of Zhenxinan.
After learning the news, Hua Zheng rushed back to Huiye Mansion and asked to see Jiang Anyi, wanting to explain, but Jiang Anyi asked his personal guard to pass on a message: The Qing Dynasty was from Qing, and he was seriously injured at this moment and would not see guests for the time being. Hua Zheng had no choice but to return to the mansion and acted as if he was waiting for the destiny at any time.
Han Yuanqing also sent Wang Huaizhong to visit and brought two cars of gifts. When Wang Huaizhong saw Jiang Anyi, he naturally said a big basket of good things for his master. The Han family had asked friends in the world to help inquire about the whereabouts of the thieves. It is said that someone saw the thieves disappearing in the desert to Qingzhou. The direction should be to the Western Regions.
Jiang Anyi accepted the gift from the Han Mansion and sent Uncle Wang away. Han Yuanqing didn't know that Jiang Anyi saw several acquaintances in his mansion that night. Then Wei Dachang and others from the Yuantian Sect came out to rob him and kill him, and to make him not doubt the Han Mansion, how could it be possible?
Other wealthy families in Huazhou expressed their kindness and personally sent someone to visit the governor. However, the gift was accepted and no one saw him. Jiang sent someone to reply: I am grateful, I will return after healing the injury.
Time passed day by day, and the government office was very quiet. Mei Hongmin was ready. If the governor Jiang asked him to send troops, he would have to pay a fine fee. As a result, after waiting for several days, he did not see the people from the government office. Jiang Anyong and Shi Tou returned to the camp and took away the remaining personal soldiers. More than a hundred people could not have moved into the back house. Jiang Anyi bought a house next to the provincial office to accommodate them. Sixteen people entered the mansion every day.
I heard the guards who escaped from death tell the heroes about their bravery and charge forward; and when I saw that the dead guards were sent back to their hometown by special people, they brought 200 taels of burial silver with them, these guards thought that Lord Jiang was worthy of his life, and the benefits of the guards were really good, and loyalty can sometimes be bought with money.
