In the mountains adjacent to the two prefectures of Huaizhou and Qingzhou, bandits are extremely strict. Most of those mountain bandits are local villagers or mountain people, as well as their relatives, and every family protects each other.

Not only are they extremely familiar with the local terrain, but they also have eyeliner outside the city, An Sanshao has just left the city with his troops, and before he enters the mountain, the mountain bandits have hidden the looted treasures, and they have run away, all dressed as ordinary villagers, and returned home to pretend to be honest.

An Sanshao was so angry that he couldn't do it, but there was no way. He can't go all over the ten miles and eight villages, knock on doors from house to door and go in to find bandits! Besides, even if he did, he might not be able to find anyone.

Because most of those mountain bandits have relatives with the villagers, the treasures they loot are used as family resources to support their families. In other words, everyone can get benefits, and no one wants to expose their relatives and cut off their own financial means.

As a result, everyone insisted that there were no mountain bandits and did not let go, and hugged together, and An Sanshao could not find evidence, so he could not convict those who looked like bandits.

But Zhou Dashao gave an order, saying that if he did not arrest all the bandits within 50 days, he would go to the capital to accuse him of dereliction of duty and fail to maintain the peace of the people. He said that he would ask the Holy Lord to take his post and send other capable ministers to sit in the position of vice governor of the southwest.

This capable minister is naturally the prince's person.

Recently, the prince's family has steadily suppressed the faction of the six princes, Zhou Dashao has long been unaccustomed to An Sanshao, the "lackey of the six princes", taking advantage of the fact that the six princes were tripped by the prince in the capital and couldn't get out, the saint was also disappointed in him, and he no longer blindly favored him like before, so he wanted to use the bandits as a raft to drive away An Sanshao.

An Sanshao is now stuck at the critical moment of asking to marry his younger sister, and he must not allow any changes to prevent him from holding the beauty. At this time, if he is demoted or masturbated, he will be even less worthy of Cen Erniang.

At that time, don't say that he will split up and live separately, even if he sends the entire An family to Cen Erniang, it may not be able to make his future father-in-law and eldest brother change their minds. There is no parental order. His sister would never marry him.

An Sanshao used a stupid method at first to go directly to the villagers' homes who suddenly became rich to get people, but every time he went, he was not a step too late. The family has moved away. That is, when he went to get people, he was blocked by the whole village, and he was united by the people of the whole village, and they chased and beat him. If he and his men fought back, they accidentally injured someone. And the villagers sprinkled. Crying and making trouble, go to the yamen. Please know the county or the prefect to be the master of the innocent and pitiful people.

Because it was the whole village that committed the crime together, shielding each other, and the Diao people were very clever in hiding the looted treasures in the mountains, An Sanshao and the officials in the government could not find any evidence to prove that those villagers were indeed mountain bandits.

In the end, An Sanshao had to lose the silver and bear the notoriety of oppressing the people, which really lost his wife and soldiers.

I have suffered a few dumb losses, and my reputation has been damaged. After being ridiculed fiercely by Zhou Dashao and the officials of his faction, An Sanshao wanted to go back to An's house to find Master An and ask him to mobilize the Plum Blossom League and the Plum Blossom Guard to help him solve the case.

But he was afraid that he would expose the strength of the An family in front of Zhou Dashao and bring trouble to the An family, so he put this thought to rest.

Originally, Zhou Dashao sent him to suppress the bandits, with sinister intentions, and he always sent his henchmen and several personal guards to follow him, so as to return his every move to him. Maybe he ran to the toilet several times a day, and those people told Zhou Dashao truthfully.

He himself wasted more than ten days in vain. A few pairs of shoes were torn, several pairs of boots and pants were worn out, and thousands of taels of silver and fame were lost, and they couldn't help those cunning bandits.

If the Plum Blossom Wei and the Plum Blossom Alliance of the An family help him complete the task. is as cunning as Zhou Dashao, and he still doesn't follow the vine, so he will find out the bottom of the An family, and then report it to the saint. When the time comes, those who are waiting to settle down will be all destroyed.

However. If he fails to complete the task on time, his official position will not be guaranteed. When he loses his official position, not to mention that he can't marry his beloved junior sister, Zhou Dashao and his subordinates will not scruple about attacking the big fat meat of the An family, and at that time, the An family and him will not end well.

It's really death both horizontally and vertically, An Sanshao, together with Master An, Mr. Ji and other strategists, pondered for a long time, but they didn't come up with a foolproof plan.

An Sanshao pondered for a long time, feeling that it was not a way to waste time passively like this, so he decisively took dozens of henchmen, rode horses and galloped for a few hours, and took a shortcut to Cen Dalang's house in Anping Town, wanting to find Cen Dalang to help.

Now, the only one who can save him and the An family is Cen Dalang.

It's a pity that he didn't go at the right time, Cen Dalang had already left Anping Town and went to the East China Sea, and his return date was uncertain, and his whereabouts were lost. For the sake of safety, he did not leave a letter to Cen Erniang this time, for fear of being discovered by someone with a heart and exposing the fact that he was still alive.

An Sanshao was in Cen Erniang's pharmacy, and the moment he heard Cen Erniang say that she couldn't contact Cen Dalang, there was a sense of frustration that the sky was going to kill me!

He looked at Cen Erniang in a daze, his eyes were blank, except for confusion in his eyes, he was worried, and Cen Erniang felt very uncomfortable.

"Senior brother, don't worry." Cen Erniang comforted An Sanshao softly: "There will always be a way." In the face of An Sanshao, who is like a lost dog, her heart is always very soft.

"What can be done?" An Sanshao's head is big: "Could it be that the An family is really difficult to escape this time?" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Cen Erniang sadly, his eyes full of reluctance and frustration, "Senior sister, I thought that I would be able to marry you home as I wished." My father and I got my grandfather to agree to separate me and leave me alone, and I even got our new home ready...... But ......"

"Why did God do this to me?!" An Sanshao couldn't find anyone else to blame, the enemy was cunning and powerful, he had no choice but to scold the sky to vent his hatred: "Why don't you let me have a good time!" Don't let settle down to have a good time! ”

"Don't be like this, calm down, let's think about it together......" Cen Erniang continued to gently persuade An Sanshao.

An Sanshao ran out of patience, and said directly with red eyes: "Annoyed me, I simply moved my family out of Huaizhou, took someone to the East China Sea with money, and took refuge in Dalang's junior brother!" He had the courage to grab Cen Erniang's hand, "Senior sister, if that time comes, you and Mr. will also go with us." I just don't know, are you still willing to marry me? ”

"I have no plans to leave the southwest for the time being." Cen Erniang didn't answer An Sanshao's question positively, and the old god was saying: "Don't keep trying to escape, it's just an alien Zhou Dashao, as a local snake, you can't deal with him!" ”

She joked, "It's really urgent, you take my poison. Medicine, send someone to poison him while he is going to the mountains or hunting, let him die violently, and he will be a hundred! ”

"Afterwards, I promised that even the imperial doctor would not be able to find out. After all, there are many poisons in the southwest, and it is normal for him to be unlucky to be bitten by one of the poisonous insects or poisonous snakes, and lose his life. ”

"Teacher, junior sister......" An Sanshao was frightened by Cen Erniang's fluttering tone, and his tongue trembled: "This, this...... No, it's not good, it's not ......" (To be continued.) )
