Chapter 935 Submission of Nominations

The carriage was bumping, Yan Qingze was gently swaying with the carriage, Yang Deyi was reciting his proud work aloud in his ears, and Liu Anjie's cheers were extremely loud. Yan Qingze understood Liu Anjie's thoughts, and spending some money to catch up with the four inmates of Guozijian was a small investment and a big return. Guozijian is a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, even if he fails to pass the Jinshi exam, he can enter the Sixth Department of Jiuqing Yamen in the future to run errands, and this relationship will definitely be useful to Liu Anjie.

It has been ten days since Ye Yingnian came out of the capital under the pseudonym, and he was able to enter the territory of Bingzhou this afternoon, and what happened in the capital was still like a knife stuck in his heart, and as long as he thought about it, his heart was bleeding. After coming out of the mausoleum, Yan Qingze found a small mountain village nearby to live, and after a few days, he met the eunuch who came to purchase food, and spent a couple of silver to know from his mouth that Feng Gonggong had hanged himself.

Along the way, Pan Heyi talked and laughed with Yang Deyi and others, thinking that there were no flaws, but they didn't know that Yan Qingze had already speculated Pan Heyi's identity when listening to Pan Heqi's conversation with the other four relatives.

Pan Heqi's inadvertent "my master" shows that Lin Tianxiang is an official, and the most likely person to hide his identity and go to Huazhou is the patrol envoy of the Yushitai and the personnel of the Longwei secret guard, or it is an official who shoulders special use, and Jingzhong is starting to clean up the fields, and this Lin Tianxiang is very likely to be an official of the Qingtian Division. Yan Qingze paid attention, and these days words such as "Pan Mansion", "cousin", and "Qingtian Division" inadvertently popped out of Pan Heqi's mouth, thinking of things that everyone in the capital knows, the Son of Heaven ordered Pan Heyi to go to Huazhou to clean up the fields, and Lin Tianxiang was about to come out.

Yan Qingze made up his mind to take refuge in Jiang Anyi, and with the help of Jiang Anyi's hand to avenge the benefactor, Pan Heyi had a grudge against Jiang Anyi, which was sent to the door. Yan Qingze shrank back on the cushion to make himself feel more comfortable, and in order to avenge his benefactor, benevolence, righteousness and morality were put aside. Under Feng Zhong's promotion, Yan Qingze was already the five-rank calmer of the secret guard, and he gave advice to Feng Zhong a lot, how could his hands be clean when he acted in the secret guard. Yan Qingze's closed eyes flashed with sadness, and when he avenged his benefactor, he became a monk, and the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha repented of his sins.

On August 23, after a fifteen-day trek, the carriage entered the Hoi Ye Province on time, the main store of the Wai Kee Carriage and Horse Company. Pan Heyi stepped out of the carriage and was startled by the noise in front of him, even on the streets of Xishi, it was not so lively. Dozens of large carts stopped in two directions in an orderly manner, and the side where he got off was a carriage carrying passengers, east and west, and the flow of people was intertwined. On the opposite side was a carriage carrying goods, and countless sturdy men were shirtless, carrying large bags of goods diverted from the large wagons to the small wagons...... The whole car and horse shop shouted and neighed, boiling the sky.

Without waiting for Pan Heyi to take a closer look, a few people leaned over beside him, shouting loudly, "Master, do you want to hire a car, the villain's carriage is clean and convenient, you can go anywhere in the Huiye Mansion", "Do you want to know the guest (tour guide), the little woman's ancestors have been from Huazhou for three generations, and all the scenery of Huazhou is known, and you can play around with your grandfather for only 200 wen a day", "Live in a hotel, clean and cheap"......

Liu Anjie waved his hand impatiently: "Don't, don't, disperse, disperse." ”

Leading everyone to the door of the carriage and horse shop, Liu Anjie explained with a smile as he walked: "Most of these people are liars, who get into their cars and pull you around, but they open their mouths to ask for money; Those who know the guests are even more scoundrels, and as for the solicitation of guests, they are all dirty and messy places, in a word, trying to cheat money. ”

Su Yongzhi asked in surprise: "I heard that Jiang Jingluo and Fang Assassin Shi have a good way of governing Huazhou, how can they let these liars act wantonly." ”

Liu Anjie said with a smile: "How can the Lord Jingluo and the Lord Thorn Shi manage these small things, and if the water is clear, there are no fish, and those who can manage these people are the servants of the government and the soldiers of the Sima Mansion, as long as these two places are touched, the government will naturally turn a blind eye." ”

Pan Heyi secretly made a note for Jiang Anyi in his heart, conniving at the lawlessness of bad officials, and swindlers were rampant in Huiye Mansion. Out of the carriage is the street, the street is full of cars and horses, left and right branches, from time to time there are Hu merchants leading camels to lead a long caravan to pass, the shops on both sides of the street set up an awning, put the goods on the road, the hawkers push the cart and carry the basket along the street to sell, a good prosperous and lively scene.

Liu Anjie said with a smile: "Several, walking all the way is fate, Liu has been to Huiye Mansion a few times, and he is considered half a landlord, I invited a few people to the restaurant to drink two cups, which can be regarded as catching the wind and washing the dust." ”

Along the way, Liu Anjie made friends with Yang Deyi and others, and Lin Tianxiang, who was under the pseudonym of Pan Heyi, was a man who was also among his favors, and Ye Yingnian (Yan Qingze) was naturally ignored by him.

Yang Deyi and others were happy that someone was wronged, and agreed with a smile. Pan Heyi thought for a while and said: "Lin has a friend in Huiye Mansion, he asked me to go for a while before coming, so I won't bother Duke Liu, and he will meet again when he is fate." ”

As for Yan Qingze, he had already consciously packed his bags and disappeared into the crowd. Yan Qingze didn't go far, and he had already made up his mind in the car to follow Pan Heyi to see what he did. You can't go to the Yamen of the Jingluo envoy to ask to see Jiang Anyi, saying that Pan Heyi came to Huiye Mansion in disguise, so that even if Jiang Anyi understands it, it will not be of much use, Yan Qingze is ready to find out Pan Heyi's plan, and then go to Hecheng County to get the secret document handed over to him by Feng Zhong before going to Jiang Anyi.

After a while, I saw Liu Anjie leading Yang Deyi and others to walk by talking and laughing, but Pan Heyi was not among them. Yan Qingze was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly glanced around, but did not see Pan Heyi's figure. Yan Qingze stomped his legs, he was careless and actually lost people, the sea of people is vast, and it will be difficult to find it again.

After searching back and forth a few times on the side of the carriage and horse shop, but did not find Pan Heyi's figure, Yan Qingze thought that he could only go back to the city and county first, took the secret document and took refuge in Jiang Anyi, and asked Jiang Anyi to send someone to find Pan Heyi's whereabouts. I turned around and entered the carriage and horse shop, looking for a carriage to Hecheng County, which had three trips a day and reached 400 wen in two days. Yan Qingze handed over the money and stepped into the carriage, and was surprised to see Pan Heyi sitting in the carriage with his entourage.

Pan Heyi was also stunned when he saw Yan Qingze, got up with a smile and arched his hand: "I didn't expect to meet Brother Ye again, it's really fateful." Does Brother Ye also go to Hecheng? ”

Yan Qingze replied with some restraint: "Mr. Lin also went to Hecheng County, it's really a blessing, a blessing." ”

The two walked all the way, which can be regarded as familiar, Pan and Yi saw that Ye Yingqian went to Hecheng County and asked, "Brother Ye has ever been to Hecheng County?" ”

"Ye has been to business a few times, and he knows a little bit about Hecheng County." Yan Qingze's heart moved, the military tun yamen was set up in Hecheng County, and the new tun army marshal tent set up by the court was also set up in Baqing Town, Hecheng County, and Feng Dingzhong, the general of Mingwei, the chief of the tun, was in Baqing Town. Pan Heyi went to Hecheng County, but he didn't hit the idea on Tuntian.

The reason why Yan Qingze placed his family and Feng Zhong's family in Hecheng County was because Hecheng County was a border city, but Jiang Anyi drove away the Western Regions coalition army through Liuhua Prefecture, and the vitality of the people in the Western Regions was greatly damaged, and the offensive and defensive momentum was reversed; The second is that there is a well-gate outside Hecheng County, and there is a garrison army inside, which is as safe as Mount Tai, in case there is a storm, you can quickly escape to the Western Regions with your family; The third is that Jiang Anyi and Huang Xi are life and death rivals, he is powerful in Huazhou, and Huang Xi easily does not dare to reach out to Huazhou.

Pan Heyi said with a smile: "Lin has a cousin in Tuntian, Hecheng County, and his family heard that I came to Huazhou for a trip and asked me to bring him a letter. ”

Yan Qingze had already confirmed that Pan Heyi wanted to start with Tuntian, and secretly praised in his heart, this person's eyes were vicious, and he saw the crux of the problem. Although Huazhou is well governed, it is not a pure land, and there are also many cases of concealment and annexation of land, especially the situation of hidden reports in Tuntian.

There are 50,000 tuntian troops in Huazhou, stationed in six tuntian counties such as Hecheng, Yiding, Jingyuan, Huangren, Linsha, and Yantu, with a total of nearly 30,000 hectares of tuntian, and more than 5 million stone of grain can be collected.

With enough food, coupled with the encouragement of Jiang Anyi and Fang Shishu, the Tun army moved their families to Huazhou, and the 50,000 Tun army brought more than 200,000 family members, these people naturally will not sit and eat dry food, and more than 10,000 hectares of fields have been newly reclaimed in a few years, and these fields will naturally not be reported to the government. At the beginning, the court stipulated that each army should be given 50 mu of land, but in fact this figure has reached 60 mu or even 70 mu, and the figure reported to the government is still according to the specification of 50 mu per soldier.

Feng Dingzhong led the Tun army to make meritorious contributions against the Western Regions Coalition Army, and was named General Mingwei by the court, and was in charge of 50,000 Tun troops as the commander of the tun, and the marshal tent was set up in Baqing Town, Hecheng County. There are 10,000 Tun troops stationed in Baqing Town, plus more than 40,000 families of Tun soldiers, Baqing Town is three points more than the population of Hecheng County, there is a saying that "small Hecheng County, big Baqing Town". Feng Dingzhong is Jiang Anyi's confidant, and he is also a general from Sipin, coupled with the special nature of the Tun army, the government will never come to the door to clean up the official field, and this piece of loophole is very big.

Pan Heyi seemed to be unintentionally taking Yan Qingze's words, Yan Qingze deliberately lured Pan Heyi to take the bait, and through Pan Heyi's questioning, he told him that he heard that the family members of the Tun army did not report the land to the government, the Tun army embezzled the land of the government, and someone hung the land under the name of the Tun army to evade the field tax. Yan Qingze wished that the more problems Pan Heyi found and the more serious the matter, the heavier the weight of the letter of nomination he sent.

Two days later, the carriage entered Hecheng County, and Pan Heyi and Yan Qingze broke up with their own ghosts. After staying in Hecheng County for one night, Pan Heyi went to Baqing Town to "visit relatives" the next day.

Baqing Town is five times larger than when Feng Dingzhong first arrived, and there are nearly 10,000 households scattered everywhere, except that there is no city wall, Baqing Town is like the scale of the county seat, and the most central location is where the Tunjun Marshal's Mansion is located. After Feng Dingzhong was named the commander of the tun, his brothers Zhang Luo renovated the marshal's mansion. The vermilion gate, the five-level stone steps, and the eight men with their chests and stomachs stacked are not as grand as the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, but this ordinary county government is definitely not comparable.
