The convoy said yes and immediately began to move.

Two team members went to the hotel to check whether it was safe, two team members followed the guard horses, and two team members stood next to the free car, guarding the easy car.

The other team members followed behind Ah Qing, waiting for the captain's orders at any time, and soon the two team members came out of the hotel and whispered to Ah Qing:

"My lord, there's nothing unusual inside, it's safe."

Ah Qing nodded, and then walked into the hotel lobby with Yuhua Tian Qinglong and others hugging Zhu Youzhen.

There were not many guests eating in the lobby, about seven or eight people were drinking at two tables in total, and as Zhu Youzhen and others entered the lobby, the eyes of the guests were immediately attracted to them.

Zhu Youzhen is dressed as a businessman, like a rich man, and Ah Qing is dressed in red, with a sword diagonally inserted in his back, giving people an extremely amazing feeling.

Qinglong and Yu Huatian were both dressed as bodyguards in strong suits, and they followed closely behind Zhu Youjian, and the royal guards then entered, their eyes vigilantly observing the situation around them.

"Rich merchants, absolutely rich merchants, it's not easy to look at their guards."

"Yes, it's been a long time since I've seen such a rich man pass by our town, and I hope I won't make a wedding dress for a thief."

"Look at that girl, not only is she beautiful, but she also carries a sword, she looks like it, and when she meets a bandit, it is estimated that the sword will not be able to pull out, and she has been that by others."

As soon as Zhu Youzhen and the others sat down at a table, they heard someone whispering, and Yuhuatian's sword eyebrows immediately stood up, and his fists and bones crackled.

Feeling that Yu Huatian wanted to lose his temper, Qinglong was still more calm, and hurriedly touched Yu Huatian's arm, Yu Huatian looked up at Zhu Youzhen, and saw that Zhu Youzhen did not look angry, so Yu Huatian relaxed his fist.

"Guest officer look at what to eat, our hotel"

The guy stepped forward and just wanted to introduce the hotel's specialties, but Zhu Youzhen waved his hand:

"The most distinctive dishes and the best dishes of your hotel are served, and the two tables are the same."

The guy suddenly smiled, and sure enough, he met a wealthy businessman.

He hurriedly nodded and smiled:

"Okay, guest officers wait a moment."

The hotel chef was not slow, and the two tables of food were quickly served, and when they saw the food coming up, the other table of guards immediately began to eat, and they had to change shifts with the brothers outside after the meal.

And Zhu Youzhen took out two bottles of red wine and said:

"Qinglong, you all sit, don't be so nervous, Ah Qing opens the red wine and tastes it."

Where did Yuhua Tian Qinglong dare to eat and drink with the emperor, standing next to Zhu Youzhen, he didn't dare to sit down at all, Zhu Youzhen was a little helpless, and explained a few words in a low voice:

"You all listen to me, after leaving Beijing, we have to be like ordinary people, don't be so stiff, I'm just your boss, let's be casual."

Zhu Youzhen's words finally made Yuhua Tian Qinglong and the others relax a little, but they still didn't dare to be too casual, after all, they were not only facing the emperor, but also their host.

Ah Qing opened the red wine, first poured half a cup for Zhu Youzhen, and then poured half a bowl for everyone one by one, it is impossible to use a glass here.

At this time, I heard someone whispering on a table next to me:

"Eat quickly, brothers, it's not safe here after dark, we need to get out of town as soon as possible."

"No, the bandits haven't come down the mountain for two days to rob, and now it's so cold outside, they shouldn't go down the mountain."

"That's right, what the eldest brother said is reasonable, I also feel that it will be okay today, even if they go down the mountain, the guest at the table next to them is the target of their robbery"

"Shh

Zhu Youzhen looked up at Yu Huatian, the people who were talking about just now were very fierce, they should refer to Yu Huatian, this person is a talent, not like a eunuch at all, he doesn't have any expression on his face, and he keeps his face stiff all day long.

"Guest officer, the dishes have been served, please use it slowly."

After the guy served the last dish, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhu Youzhen:

"Xiao Er walks slowly, I will ask you about something, there don't seem to be many pedestrians in the town at night, is there something going on here?"

"It's better not to ask, this guest officer."

Seeing that Xiao Er seemed to have something unspeakable, Qinglong took out a silver ingot and threw it on the dining table:

"Xiao Er, if you have something to say directly, our boss is not an ordinary person, maybe he can help you a little."

Xiao Er struggled psychologically, maybe he couldn't stand the temptation of that big ingot of silver, and finally grabbed the ingot of silver, and then looked left and right before saying:

"Don't hide it from the guest officer, this place belongs to the jurisdiction of Zezhou Prefecture, you look at the mountains outside, although it is not high, but the area is very large, the name is Wang Mangling, there are a gang of thieves in the mountains who are very arrogant, often go down the mountain to loot, many rich people in the town are scared away, and you are also a guest officer, you are lucky, they have not come down the mountain for several days, you should not meet them today."

Zhu Youzhen frowned:

"Haven't all the bandits been cleared? Even if there are fish that slip through the net, won't the government send troops to suppress them? How can it still be so rampant? ”

Xiao Er shook his head:

"The guest officer doesn't know, Li Yan's army swept all the way, which did make many rogues and thieves frightened, but there will always be some fish that slipped through the net."

It turned out that Wang Qiang, the governor of Zezhou Prefecture, was the nephew of Wang Pu, the former general soldier of Datong, and Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong who was the first to escape in the Battle of Songjin, and Chongzhen was killed by the imperial court in 15 years

After the Liukou captured Zezhou, Wang Qiang took refuge in Li Zicheng, and when Li Yan subdued Zezhou, he actively cooperated with the Ming army and performed well, and remained in Zezhou for the time being.

Li Yan and Yan Yingyuan were in charge of recovering the lost territory occupied by the Liukou, and it was impossible to kill them all, if that would be the case, there would be no one to use at all.

Therefore, the officials with better performance will stay for the time being, and after the situation is stabilized, the court will make final arrangements, and Wang Qiang will belong to the category of better performance.

Wang Qiang has a younger brother named Wang Meng, he and Wang Qiang have completely different ideas, his uncle was killed by the imperial court, which is equivalent to cutting off his financial route, and he has always held a grudge.

After Li Yan's army left, Wang Meng gathered a few hundred people again and immediately went up to the mountain, which became a serious disaster in the local area.

Almost all the merchants who passed by since then have been looted by him, and often go down the mountain to rob the surrounding people, although now every family has been allocated the land, but under his harassment, the people are still miserable.

Some people also went to the government to complain, and the government also sent a small number of officials and soldiers to suppress it, but with little effect, I don't know if the officials and soldiers did not do their best or the bandits were too powerful, and each time it ended in failure.

Later, once someone reported to the government, they would be retaliated against the next day, and finally everyone learned that the prefect turned out to be the brother of the bandit leader.

Everyone immediately understood why hundreds of people were in rebellion, and they could not be exterminated by the government, and the obvious official and bandit family, the younger brother was in rebellion, and the elder brother suppressed it and did not report it.

After the guy finished speaking, he looked very nervous and arranged Zhu Youzhen and others:

"Guest officer, the villain is collecting money to do things, you must not disclose this matter, otherwise everyone will be unlucky, remember not to meddle in things, otherwise you are very likely to not be able to get out of Wang Mangling."
