Chapter 397: Geng Zhen's angry pursuit of military horses
I, I ......" Guo Yuan hesitated, but still didn't dare to approach.
"Let's go! Let's go to the barracks first. Geng Zhen didn't embarrass her, and climbed on the back of the horse with her support.
"Yes, it's from the Governor's Mansion?" Guo Yuan got on the horse, but he still couldn't help it, and asked softly.
"The Governor's Mansion? How could you think that? Geng Zhen seemed to be thinking, but Guo Yuan interrupted his train of thought, feeling a little strange.
"I'm not from the Governor's Mansion, how can I know each other?" Guo Yuan had recovered from the panic at this moment, and she even regretted that she didn't take the bold look just now.
"It's Ho Liu's people." Geng Zhen explained calmly.
"Ahh It's him! He, why did he hurt you? Guo Yuan was taken aback.
"There is a way in heaven, he doesn't go, and there is no door to hell, he wants to break in! I didn't want to care about all the ugly things he did, he forced me! Geng Zhen gritted his teeth, he couldn't imagine that this horse dealer would be so bold.
The two came to the barracks, and the soldiers hurriedly bandaged Geng Zhen to heal his wounds.
After settling down, Geng Zhen began to arrange, while letting people carry the two dead people in the woods back, and arranging for people to send Guo Yuan back to the city.
"It's so late, how can I get back! Besides, I'm not worried about your injuries! Guo Yuan heard that Geng Zhen was going to send someone to send him, and he was not happy.
"You are a girl, what kind of system is it to stay in the barracks!" Geng Zhen let out a low roar.
"My father is a lieutenant, and this military camp is my home!" Guo Yuan is reasonable.
Geng Zhen was also speechless, seeing that the time was indeed too late, she had to stay.
Fortunately, Geng Zhen suffered skin injuries and did not hurt his bones. He was also in good physical condition, rested for one night, and the next day, although he was still a little unwell, he was able to move on the ground.
He couldn't wait to send Guo Yuan home.
"Don't tell anyone about this yet." When entering the city, Geng Zhen couldn't help but ask.
"How can such a big thing be hidden? They're all dead! Guo Yuan was a little surprised.
"I need some time to get things straight. Besides, I don't want you to get involved in this matter, it's not good for you! Geng Zhen has a plan, he is not sure about the mastermind behind this matter, and he doesn't want to startle the snake yet.
"Are you going to find He Liu? I'm with you! Guo Yuan heard that Geng Zhen was going to investigate alone, and he didn't want to let go of this opportunity.
"Don't mess around, that's not what a girl should do." Geng Zhen flatly refused.
"Am I a normal girl? Without me, you'd be in the wilderness by now! Besides, I'm already involved, and I've got to figure out what's going on! Guo Yuan stopped the horse and said that he would not leave.
"Hey!" Geng Zhen sighed, he knew this eldest lady's temper too well, and knew that he couldn't persuade her for a while, and he didn't have time to delay. I had to take her to the county government of Ningxian County, because He Liu should have been locked up there at this time.
But when the two came to the county office, they were told that He Liu's case was over!
"Case closed? How did it end? What about the six? Geng Zhen was a little dumbfounded.
He Liu forged military horses, deceived the Hun merchants, blamed 30 boards, compensated the Xiongnu merchants and horses, and fined 50 catties. He Liu pleaded guilty to punishment and was released yesterday. ”
"Thirty boards and fifty fines for forging military horses?" Geng Zhen was a little incredible, according to his expectations, even if He Liu was not a capital crime, he would have to be exiled! He originally guessed that He Liu's family set up an ambush to retaliate because they suspected that they were "informing". Unexpectedly, Ning County would dispose of it so hastily.
"Don't hide it from Geng Weicheng, this He Liu is not an ordinary person, he has been preparing military funds for the Western Governor for many years, and he has some credit. This time he has repented, so he has been given a light sentence. The county magistrate of Ning generously admitted. The Governor's Mansion is set up on his territory, and he can't help but give face.
"Where are the others now? Get it back for me right away! Geng Zhen was a little excited.
"Catch it? The case has been closed, how can you arrest people? County Magistrate Ning was a little puzzled.
"The case of the military horse is over, but the case of the assassination of the official army is not over!" Geng Zhen said in a cold voice.
"What, what kind of assassination of the officers and soldiers?"
"Last night, He Liu's people set up an ambush and murdered me in Qiliping, and they almost succeeded!"
"This, how is this possible? You, are you sure it's him, his man? "County Magistrate Ning was really taken aback.
"The two bandits were killed on the spot, and now the military village of the Governor's Mansion, you send someone to pull the body back!" Geng Zhen glared at County Magistrate Ning.
"This, this ......" County Magistrate Ning also had no temper, and finally just finished a troublesome matter, and more troublesome things followed!
Although the governor's mansion and the county government are not subordinate to each other, Geng Zhen has a similar official rank to him. It stands to reason that Geng Zhen has no right to interfere in his government affairs, but this Geng Zhen is not only Du Weicheng, but also the son of Taishou! County Magistrate Ning didn't dare to offend, so he had to quickly send someone to arrest He Liu.
He Liu is unlucky this time! Originally, I carefully prepared and calculated the Huns, but I didn't expect that the Huns would dare to go to the government to complain. The complaint is also over, Ning County actually arrested himself!
Relying on his relationship with the Governor's Mansion, he was not too worried. However, the news revealed when Captain Shi Tianshan came to visit the prison surprised him very much.
The Huns not only sued him to Ning County, but also stabbed him to the Taishou Mansion of Fuyang!
Therefore, Ning County also had to "handle the case impartially", otherwise, it would not be possible to give an account to Taishou. Of course, Tian Dan "inadvertently" blamed all this on the "mastermind behind it", Taishou's son, Geng Zhen!
Although it was only a symbolic hit of thirty boards, He Liu was still beaten "painful". And what made him even more distressed was the fine. Not only did I not earn a single money, but I also posted fifty gold! That's a year's worth of income!
finally got out of the county office, and his little minion immediately reported Geng Zhen's whereabouts to him. He Liu was also angry, ready to "teach a lesson" to this son.
But unexpectedly, not only did he fail to succeed, but he suffered heavy casualties!
Hearing that two of his brothers had died and could not be brought back, He Liu knew that Geng Zhen would come to the door sooner or later, so he was desperate to flee for his life.
Who knows, before he arrived at the city gate, the county government had already begun to arrest him everywhere! Seeing that he couldn't escape for a while, he hurriedly hid in the "den" he had prepared a long time ago, preparing to avoid the limelight for the time being.
The county government couldn't catch He Liu, but Geng Zhen didn't follow, so he simply sat in the county government hall and said that he wouldn't leave!
The county magistrate Ning had no choice but to quickly send someone to the governor Guo Ting.
Guo Ting learned that his daughter had not returned overnight, and he was anxious, and when he heard that his daughter and Geng Zhen were "making trouble" with the county government, he was even more angry!
While scolding He Liu for looking for death, he also scolded Tian Dan for a bloody squirt!
"What are you! That Geng Zhen, I don't dare to provoke, you dare to fight his idea! I see how you can account for your Taemori! ”
