Hearing him talk about Jianghuai's bandits, Yan Hanyu knew that what he was going to do must be related to this. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Even though he was full of doubts and worries, thinking that he had been running around all day and suffering from the snow outside, Yan Hanyu still decided to let him rest earlier.

"Okay, I won't bother you, you better go to bed early. ”

"It's four watches, it's not early. You sleep in the warm pavilion, the bedroom is in the back, and I'll go to another room. ”

"I'll just lie here for a while. She pointed to the outer couch, embarrassed to go into his back bedroom.

When I looked up and wanted to talk to him again, I saw him twisting his eyebrows again and pressing one hand on his temple, "Do you have a headache again?"

"Go to bed early, we'll talk about it tomorrow. I'll leave tomorrow night. ”

"It's better for you to lie down and I'll help you rub it, I won't be able to sleep here anyway. ”

Zhao Xian looked down at her.

The fair-skinned little face, dyed with a layer of red, pink and transparent, looks like a serious casual, but the eyebrows and eyes are shy and unconscious.

Such a beautiful and delicate face is unmatched in the whole world.

Intelligent, brave, and straightforward, how many people can compare with such a temperament.

"Yu'er. ”

Yan Hanyu's heart trembled.

"Can you hug you for a while?"

Yan Hanyu's waist twisted, but he didn't answer anything.

In the past, she took the initiative, but today he finally took the initiative, but he had to ask her opinion first and ask her how to answer!

I didn't know that I picked her up with both hands at the waist.

Yan Hanyu didn't have time to exclaim, her arms were already holding him steadily, and she hurriedly reached out to climb his shoulder.

When it came to the fourth watch, Zhao Xian half-hugged her, and his hand was afraid of crushing her, so he pressed his hand weakly.

Yan Hanyu almost curled up in his arms, like a kitten.

She didn't feel sleepy, except for his slightly lower voice.

"The water bandits in Jianghuai Bay were originally just a rabble of homeless people from the rivers and lakes, but in the past ten years, they have become more and more famous, and no one in the court has been able to find out their location for so many years. ”

"The water bandits we met in Jianghuai a few years ago, the two people who were caught, were sent to the government and then robbed by others, and the speed was unbelievable. ”

"In this way, this Jianghuai Bay must be guarded. Yan Hanyu continued his words.

Not only were they protected, but they also walked freely in the open sea, and they had business dealings with Goryeo, Dongying, and Ryukyu, and trade has not been interrupted to this day. ”

Yan Hanyu sat up in shock, "Didn't the emperor issue a ban on the sea two years ago?"

Seeing that his eyebrows were light, and he didn't know if it was a headache, Yan Hanyu sat on the side with his legs bent and let him lean on, "I'll help you rub it." ”

Zhao Xian closed his eyes, responded lightly, and only found a comfortable position to lean on.

The long hair is pouring like a waterfall, and the posture of the man leaning on is casual and lazy, adding a few different charms.

Yan Hanyu licked her lips unconsciously, lowered her eyelashes, touched the ends of his forehead with her fingers, pressed them to her temples accurately, and rubbed them again and again.

I only heard his voice again, "When my father was here, he never banned the sea, and two years ago, the emperor's uncle actually banned the sea and did not trade with the sea, but those people still traded with the sea. ”

"I started to check the origin of those people three years ago, and outsiders thought that the foothold of these people was near Jianghuai Bay, and they searched back and forth, but they couldn't find out, but they didn't know that they were actually gathered on the outer islands of Chuzhou, and even their people had already been distributed in the states of Huainan East Road, Bozhou, Suzhou, Haizhou, Sizhou, Chuzhou, Chuzhou, Zhenzhou, Yangzhou, Taizhou, Tongzhou, and ten states were full of their people. Now it is impossible to find out how many people are distributed in them, only that they are controlled by two people, one named Jiang Chong and the other named Wu Nong. ”

"Three years ago, those people went into Huaishui to rob silver, in fact, because of their internal strife, Wu Nong intended to be the king and hegemony in Jianghuai Bay, and Jiang Chong turned against him, so he entered Huaishui to rob the wealth of the common people, Wu Nong's people were arrested several times, and after realizing that they could not do without Jiang Chong's help, Wu Nong compromised and had to obey Jiang Chong's command. ”

"The people who are arrested can be rescued, could it be that it is the officials of the DPRK and China who protect them?" If there were no officials from the DPRK and China to protect each other, I am afraid that it would not be so easy for a group of bandits to support them for so many years, right? Yan Hanyu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, but he thought of one person, "The Jiedu envoy of Huainan East Road is Zhou Chiling, and the Zhou family is from Chenzhou, you are going to check the Zhou family?

"Hmm. If something happens in the area under his jurisdiction, he must be investigated. ”

Yan Hanyu was puzzled, "I actually forgot one thing, Zhou Chiling has been the envoy of Huainan East Road for many years, and there are such water bandits in Jianghuai, and the emperor has never blamed him." ”

Before Zhou Chi Ling, he changed three festival envoys in a row, Zhou Chi Ling did not find the bandits of Jianghuai, but allowed the spread of those bandits, the emperor did not blame Zhou Chi Ling, but appointed Zhou Chi Ling as the champion general, this matter is also quite strange?

Is it because they have no choice but to sit idly by and ignore the bandits in Jianghuai? Or is there another reason?

Yan Hanyu hurriedly followed Zhao Xian's thinking.

I only heard Zhao Xian continue, "Jiang Chong and Zhou Chiling do have secret contacts, and this is also the news I only got in recent days. ”

"If this news is true, why do you have to deal with this matter yourself? Wouldn't it become a crime to collude with bandits and allow those bandits to trade with maritime merchants, which is a capital crime, and can be directly elevated to the crime of rebellion. The emperor could not tolerate rebellion, and under such a crime, the whole family could not escape. ”

"It's not that simple. Zhao Xian turned his mind and asked, "Do you know the Gu family in Pingzi Lane, west of the city?"

"Yes. "That's someone who has been involved with Aunt Fang, of course she knows.

"In fact, the robbed official bank is not only for the family, but also for the four major merchants in the capital. In the end, only the Gu family had an accident, and it was because the Gu family knew something that others didn't know. It's a complicated relationship, and that's why I'm going to find out about it myself. It will not be so easy for people to report Zhou Chi Ling, and it will not be so easy to convict the Zhou family. ”

"Officials and businessmen collude, if this is the case, the emperor will really not know at all?" Yan Hanyu asked.

"My imperial uncle has a very hidden secret guard. Zhao Xian came without a beginning or an end.

Yan Hanyu immediately understood the meaning of these words, and the emperor knew about it. There is a forbidden army to protect the emperor's safety, and there are secret guards that no one else has known about, and their mission is not only to protect the emperor's safety.

What is the reason why the emperor of a country can tolerate this? Thinking about it, there is only one reason, there are his people among the Jianghuai bandits, and even the government and the opposition have his eyes, so he controls not only the court but also the rivers and lakes.

"Why did the emperor issue a ban on the sea?"

In fact, there are a lot of benefits from maritime trade, and the reason why Bianliang prospers so quickly is precisely because it maintains a close relationship with the four seas for trade.

This time, I didn't hear Zhao Xian's answer.

Feeling his breathing steady, Yan Hanyu withdrew his hand.

Looking at his sleeping face, he got up and took a brocade quilt to drape him, and checked his pulse, except for a little weakness, there were no other symptoms. (To be continued.) )
