Thinking of this, Yang Chun felt that he still needed to use the power of the government.

"We can only go to the government and ask for help. Yang Chun said.

Qingfeng said: "But the shopkeeper has already said before, and the officials here don't dare to care about those mountain bandits at all." ”

"But the mountain bandits are still afraid of the people in the government. Yang Chun said with certainty.

Before going up the mountain today, Yang Chun didn't dare to say this, but with today's meeting with the mountain bandits, Yang Chun could tell Qingfeng with certainty that the mountain bandits were also afraid of the government.

"Why do you say that?" asked Qingfeng.

"I proposed three plans to him today, but they still chose the last one, even if they agreed that we would send more people, they were not willing to change the location of the transaction, and he also said before that he didn't want silver tickets, for fear that his people would encounter an ambush when they went down the mountain to exchange silver tickets. ”

Yang Chun told his analysis one by one.

Yang Chun: "What does this mean? This shows that they still feel that Shimen Mountain is the safest, and they dare not rush down to act, if they were really not afraid of the officers and soldiers, I am afraid that they would have run rampant under the mountain a long time ago." ”

Qingfeng nodded, Yang Chun's analysis made sense.

"The reason why the officers and soldiers don't care is not that they don't dare to take care of it, but they don't want to take care of it, those mountain bandits are all desperate guys, and they don't dare to go down the mountain, and the scourge is all rich people, and there is not much damage to local security, so why can't the official turn a blind eye. Yang Chun continued.

"If there is a head-on conflict with the mountain bandits, the officers and soldiers may lose a lot, which will have an impact on his political performance, and the suppression of bandits is just a matter within his accusations, and even if he does it, it will not be much rewarded. Qingfeng followed Yang Chun's words and analyzed down.

"So, in this way, the county lord here is a bastard who doesn't act. Xiaohe listened to it for a long time, and finally heard something.

Yang Chun praised: "Okay, you're very smart." ”

Xiaohe smiled, "It's still good for Miss to teach." ”

The truth is exactly what they analyzed.

"But now, if we don't get help from the government, it may be difficult for us to get out of the hands of those bandits in Shimen Mountain. Qingfeng said.

Yang Chun nodded, lost in thought.

At this time, it was already evening, and the red candle on the table was gradually burning out, and Yang Chun sat there motionless, as if he was out of his body.

Qingfeng and Xiaohe didn't bother her.

They were all thinking about what to do now, but they never saw what to do.

"There you go. In the quiet night, Yang Chun suddenly spoke up and said, "We can divide the army into two ways, I will send someone to contact His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the capital, and then go to the government for help." ”

"But will the government agree to help us?"

Yang Chun patted his chest and promised, "Wrap it up on me." ”

When I came to the official mansion, it was deserted in front of the yamen, and the drumsticks of the drumming fell dust, as if this was a peaceful and prosperous era, and no one had come to shout grievances for a long time.

Since Yang Chun came over, the two people guarding outside the yamen stared at Yang Chun, for fear that she would go to get the drumsticks.

This can break the record of no unjust cases in the three years that their county lord has governed here.

Under the murderous gaze of Yang Chun's two people, she still walked under the drum of grievances, she picked up the drumstick and hit it hard.

"Knock knock—"

The dull sound of drums woke up the sleepy county lord.

"Who? who dares to beat the drum?" the county lord was furious when he thought about coming.

"Master Qiyu, it was a woman who played the drum and said that she was going to report the crime. ”

"Bring someone to me. ”

Da Yunguo stipulates that as soon as the drum of grievances sounds, no matter what happens, the case must be accepted.

The county lord reluctantly asked people to invite the parties, and this knock, his fourth year as the county lord was finally not peaceful.

Yang Chun was brought to the lobby, and the official pushed and shoved, "Don't kneel down yet, you stand straight when you see our master." ”

In a hurry, Yang Chun could only reluctantly kneel down.

"Tell me, what's going on that that makes you beat the drum?" asked the county lord dissatisfied.

"The family of the folk girl was robbed by the robbers of Shimen Mountain, and now the robbers ask for a huge amount of money to save the lives of their families, and the folk girl is a weak woman, there is really no way but to think of coming here to report to the official, and ask the adults to help the folk girl. ”

When the county magistrate heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Girl, you are a foreigner, right?"

"Exactly, the folk girl is a person from the capital, and her family has something to do passing through here. Yang Chun said.

"Since the kidnapper is asking you for money, and what you want to protect is also your family, you can give him the money, wouldn't everyone be happy?" The county master felt that what he said was too reasonable, it was simply the Qingtian lord who was alive, and couldn't help but brush his beard proudly.

Yang Chun suppressed the anger in his heart, "The robbers robbed my relatives and asked for money that originally belonged to my family, but you, as a parent official, actually didn't make the decision for me, but you think that I deserve to give my family's hard-earned money to the robbers, are you still worthy of being this parent official?"

The county master was also angry, "Don't think that you are from a place like the capital and you can point fingers at this official, this official is the parent official of the imperial court, where is your turn to talk nonsense here to educate this official, come on, drag me out!"

"Dayun State has a rule, once the drum is decided to take over the case, you will withdraw me from the yamen now, this case is not clear, how are you going to close the case? Let your master write a few strokes?" Yang Chun was held left and right, but said loudly.

"When I get out of this place, I will sue you for inaction and disregard for human life. ”

When Yang Chun said this, the county master was a little scared.

After all, she is from a place like Hedu, and she can still be targeted by the people of Shimen Mountain, which means that she may be a big family with a lot of property.

To be able to do such a big business, there must be a lot of strong relationships, although in this small town can not speak, no relatives and friends to help, but in the capital, maybe there are really people who can speak, when the time comes, poke this matter out, wouldn't it be troublesome.

The county master is the person who is most afraid of trouble, and immediately changed his attitude, "Let it go, whoever asked you to pull her, let it go quickly!"

Left and right officials, look at me, I'll look at you, didn't the county lord order to throw people out just now, why did you turn your face and don't recognize people after a while.

However, the officials were used to the county lord doing things like this, so they could only admit it, let go of Yang Chun, and retreat to both sides.

"This lady, who in your family was kidnapped?" the county lord asked carefully.

Yang Chun told the story of the incident.

The county lord slapped the table and scolded the gang of mountain bandits with Yang Chun, "Bold thieves, it's really lawless, this kind of thing has been done! These gang of mountain bandits, since they fought three years ago, have fallen into the grass in Shimen Mountain, I don't know how many people have been harmed, but unfortunately they are really fierce." ”

"Since it has been three years since the murder was committed, why hasn't he been arrested yet? Yang Chun asked.

"These people are very shrewd and have never come down the mountain blatantly. ”
