Chapter 86: People are small and ghosts are big
"Brother Lu's method is really good, so that those lonely women have something to rely on." Qin Youyu sighed.
Qin Quan thought that Lu Yuan was doing this to please his sister, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, if you do this, Sister I'm afraid it will be difficult to win the battle." ”
"That's not necessarily, it will come from knowing." Qin Youyu said lightly.
"In that case, Sister, you might as well give me all the bandits you captured." Qin Quan rolled his eyes and said.
"I'm not asking your sister to only bring female soldiers, but to allow her to recruit female soldiers, male soldiers can naturally be recruited as well, as long as the total number of people does not exceed two hundred and fifty, two regiments and two hundred and fifty people each,
After the city defense battalion is set up, you and Jin Zhutou's team will recruit another 250 people to become the city defense battalion, and Miss Qin's team will recruit another 250 people to make up the regimental training camp. Lu Yuan explained.
Lu Yuan divided the regimental training camp into two halves, obviously very satisfied with the effect of this division of troops, Qin Quan felt slightly complacent, and said with a smile:
"Brother Lu, if you let those big men train with women, I'm afraid they will have problems!"
Lu Yuan was stunned and was about to speak, when Qin Yu said, "Brother Lu, don't worry, I have my own way." ”
Lu Yuan nodded, and then discussed some specific details of the regimental training camp with the two sisters and brothers, and asked the two to come to the county office tomorrow morning, and then prepare to leave.
"Brother Lu, take this." After Qin Youyu rescued Lu Yuan that day, he hunted and killed all the large beasts nearby, but he was still afraid that he would have an accident, so he lent his spear.
"Okay." Lu Yuan took the spear and rushed back to the county government in a hurry.
Along the way, he thought that he hadn't returned for a few days, and Lu Yutong didn't know how anxious he should be, and he was extremely uneasy.
Who knew that when he arrived at the back house, he saw Lu Yutong practicing light skills in the courtyard, and her small figure was like a bird, jumping up and down on the courtyard.
"Rain Hitomi, what are you doing?" Lu Yuan rubbed his eyes and exclaimed.
Hearing his voice, Lu Yutong stepped on a tree trunk, caught the rebound force, jumped to Lu Yuan's side with a few backflips, and said, "Brother, you're back!" ”
"Do you know what I'm doing these days?" Lu Yuanqi said.
"You know, you beat the bad guys." Lu Yutong said crisply.
"How do you know?" Lu Yuan was puzzled.
"A few nights ago, I waited for you at home for a long time and didn't see you come back, so I went to the mountains to look for you, and after I went there, I found that the doors were locked, and I remembered that you discussed what village to fight before, so I guessed that you and Sister Qin went to beat the bad guys.
Also, there is a person named Zhanyuan who came to inquire about your whereabouts several times, but I didn't tell him. ”
She tilted her head and looked smug, as if she felt that she was so witty that her brother should praise her.
Lu Yuan was speechless for a while, touched her little head and said, "Yutong, I'm hungry, you go get dinner." ”
He had been busy all day, he hadn't eaten lunch, and his stomach was already hungry.
The little girl answered, ran to the kitchen, since Lu Yuan was born, she often went out to buy vegetables, cook for Lu Yuan, and practiced good cooking skills at a young age.
Although she was only six years old, she was very precocious, and she felt that her brother was earning money outside, and she should be responsible for the chores at home, and Lu Yuan was too busy, so she left it to her.
Lu Yuan took the opportunity to go to the second hall, and many scribes were startled when they saw Lu Yuan suddenly walk out of the back house.
"My lord, haven't you been in the back house for the past few days?" Boldly asked.
"I've been out for something these days, and I just came back, so you go and ask Zhanyuan to come and see me."
"Yes." The clerk thought that Lu Yuan was returning to the back house from the side door, and took the order to go.
I didn't sit in the study for a while, Zhanyuan hadn't come yet, Dong Yuan and Qin Li came, next to Qin Li, Lu Yuan also saw a familiar face, it was Mu Shun!
"Guard Mu, you're finally here!" Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"My subordinates have finally met my lord!" Mu Shun had already heard Qin Li talk about Lu Yuan's experience after the county seat, and he regretted that he couldn't come with him, and he was very excited when he saw Lu Yuan's affectionate expression.
"The things entrusted by the adults have been done by the subordinates." He handed over two taels of silver.
"It's hard work, you can be a famous catcher at the head of the exhibition in the future." Lu Yuan arrangement.
Mu Shun was dumbfounded, and thought to himself, "Shouldn't you give me the position of head catcher?" ”
Qin Li was secretly amused when he watched from the sidelines, and said, "Brother Mu, I haven't thanked you yet!" ”
"Master Xie." Mu Shun said in a low voice, and then retreated after speaking, with a faint dissatisfaction expression.
"My lord, where have you been these days?" Qin Li hurriedly asked.
"I went to the villages in the county to investigate the people's situation, is the county government okay recently?" Lu Yuan said lightly.
Qin Li did hear Lu Yuan say that he would go to all the villages in the territory to have a look, but he didn't expect him to really go, and he went for a few days, thinking: "The rural conditions are so poor, it's really a shame that adults can stand it." ”
"Everything is fine, it's just that Li Xiancheng has come to you a few times." Qin Li replied.
"My lord, I am afraid that the official documents that have accumulated in the past few days will be delayed for too long and affect the people's livelihood, so I made my own opinion, and let the people of the sixth room implement it without waiting for your instructions." Dong Yuan said.
He was a straight man, and he felt that he had no problem doing it, so he didn't even say anything about pleading.
"I advised Master Dong to wait for you to come back and deal with it, but he just didn't listen." Qin Li saw that Lu Yuan was looking at Dong Yuan and didn't speak, so he hurriedly cleared up the relationship.
How did he know that Lu Yuan was very satisfied with Dong Yuan's approach, and he couldn't help but praise it in his heart, and planned to entrust it to reuse it in the future.
"Dong Yuan has done a good job in this, and he should take credit."
"Thank you, sir." Dong Yuan said happily.
"Now I need you two to do something for me." Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"Your Excellency, please speak." Qin Li hurriedly shook his spirits.
"You have people build a large screen in the second hall and use it as a merit board, and whoever has made a meritorious service in the future will be recorded on the screen so that everyone can see it. As long as you make three meritorious contributions, you will have ten taels of silver as a reward, and the official transfer will also refer to the merit board! ”
Dong Yuan was slightly surprised, Lord Lu wanted to emulate Tang Taizong, could it be that what was the meaning of his move?
"Subordinates receive orders." Qin Li hurriedly said, and after finishing speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the study, and Dong Yuan followed out with his head down.
Not long after the two left, Zhan Yuan finally came, and after seeing Lu Yuan, his anxious mood in the past few days finally calmed down.
"Your Excellency, you're back."
"I've been visiting the surrounding countryside for a few days, I've been busy with you these past few days, is everything okay in the county?" Lu Yuan still uses the excuse of going to the countryside.
"The subordinates don't feel hard, everything is fine in the county."
"By the way, I wrote you a letter in the name of Wang Yuan a few days ago, and I sent it to you with a donkey, haven't you received it?" Lu Yuan said lightly.
"Nope!" Zhan Yuan was surprised.
"Forget it, it's not important now, you can get busy." Lu Yuan stared at him for a while and said.
Out of the second hall, Zhan Yuan sneered in his heart, post donkey? Very well, if I find out that they have withheld the letters that adults wrote to me, see how I clean them up.
On the way back to the fast house, many people in the yaya who heard the county order to return to the ya, came up to inquire about the news and asked about the county order's movements in the past few days.
The people who dared to ask Zhan Yuan were all big officials in the county government, and Zhan Yuan didn't dare to offend easily, so he followed the way of being an official under the guidance of Jin Muxing and dealt with it patiently.
When they were all gone, he took the catcher and hurried to the donkey Xingshi to ask for the guilt.
The working model of the post donkey is to receive a letter from the employer, deliver it to the target location, and then hand it over to the local post donkey, and each letter will be given to the local post donkey for some expenses, and they will send it.
It can be said that all post donkeys in the country are cooperative relations, so Zhan Yuan suspects that the letter was detained by the owner of the post donkey in She County.
"Zhan Ye, who are you?" Wang Peng, the owner of the donkey, saw Zhanyuan coming with a ticket of people and horses, and his face turned white with fright.
"Let me ask you, have any letters from the donkey to me lately?" Zhan Yuan asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Wang Peng swallowed his saliva and said.
"What about the letter?" Zhan Yuan asked.
"The villain personally sent it to the county office, and handed it over to Lezhu in person, didn't you receive it?" Wang Peng said in a trembling voice.
"It's him." Zhan Yuan's heart sank and said, "You can accompany me for a trip." ”
"Yes." Wang Peng's heart beat the drum, in his opinion, the county government is the most dangerous place in the county, and bad luck is that there is no return.
In the fast room, after Le Fang saw Wang Peng, he was shocked and knew that the incident had happened.
"What else do you have to say?" Zhan Yuan sneered.
"I accidentally lost the letter." Lefang decided to resist to the end, this is not a big deal, and Zhanyuan will dismiss himself at most.
"This letter was written by the prefectural magistrate himself." Zhan Yuan said lightly.
"What?" Le Fang exclaimed, he was too unlucky.
"The prefectural magistrate has already personally inquired and said, "Where did the letter go?" Who told you to do this? Zhan Yuan shouted.
Le Fang's lips moved, but he didn't make a sound, he saw the fate of his predecessors Ding Zhutou and Tian Bantou with his own eyes, and he was extremely afraid of the county order.
But the person behind him is also a ruthless character, and if he confesses him, he is afraid that the end will not be too good.
Zhan Yuan has been a fast catcher for a while, and he also has some experience in solving cases, knowing that Le Fang has been shaken, at this time, as long as he breaks through his psychological defense, he will confess everything.
"Who is in charge of this city now, you should understand it." Zhanyuan said unhurriedly.
"If I tell me, can you keep my family safe?" Le Fang gritted his teeth and said.
"I can only promise you to intercede with the county magistrate." Zhan Yuan doesn't like empty promises.
Le Fang nodded, he also knew a little about Zhanyuan, knowing that what he said was still reliable, and said in a low voice: "It's Lord County Lieutenant, he ordered me to pretend to serve you and inform him of your movements." ”
Zhan Yuan snorted coldly, and sure enough, it was the nail that Li Yuan planted beside him.
Since he became the head catcher, he often dealt with Li Yuan, because he didn't give Li Yuan face, he often talked back to him in person, and the two later fell out completely.
Although Li Yuan wanted to deal with him, with Lu Yuan here, he was powerless. Originally, many of Li Yuan's subordinates saw that Li Yuan was weak, and they took refuge in Zhanyuan, and Le Fang was one of them.
He had talked to this person a few times, thinking that this person could still be trusted, but who knew that he was a traitor.
"What about the letter?" Zhan Yuan asked coldly.
"That day, I took the letter and took it directly to the county lieutenant, and Lord Li said that what happened in Xiuning might be related to the Assassin's Mansion, so he asked me to hold the letter first, and then he sent someone to check the Huang Ji ink shop mentioned in the letter." Lefang replied.
Zhan Yuan was silent, Lord Lu didn't seem to plan to pursue this matter, and he couldn't do anything about Li Yuan.
But after this incident, he completely lost trust in the people who had taken refuge in Li Yuan, and decided to carry out a great purge!
