"It's not time to fight, the grass is moving, but it's running very fast, don't worry, you still need to go with us to investigate." Joan appeased General Cheng.

From this day on, Li Zhongxuan received a secret investigation warrant, and as long as it was a problem reported by the surrounding people, he would take it seriously. However, in a month or so, there was also an endless stream of people from other states and counties who rushed to complain, Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An were responsible for interrogation and interrogation, and as for General Cheng, he was responsible for the execution.

Li Zhongxuan rebuilt the streets and alleys with Zhang and embezzled silver, and strengthened the women's wall, so that Hezhou looked much better than before.

After Li Zhongxuan's rectification, there was no one who did not retreat, whether it was bandits or corrupt officials. All of a sudden, Hezhou turned out to be a base.

Li Zhongxuan asked Du Bian to assist the newly appointed Hezhou county magistrate in handling things, and the newly appointed Hezhou county magistrate was a talent recommended by Li Zhongxuan.

After the emperor came to power, he vigorously rectified government affairs, handled various things, visited the people's feelings and opinions, and became Li Zhongxuan's best helper for a while.

But General Cheng and Du Bian searched the surroundings day by day, but there was no trace of the group of strongmen in Heifeng Mountain, and it became a mystery where they went.

Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An discussed for a long time, and they made a decision to let Du Bian continue to assist in the investigation in Hezhou, and General Cheng took Hezhou as the center to deal with all the surrounding affairs.

As for Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan, the two of them were dressed in disguise, and they were still the same as before, and they went to visit secretly.

Everyone has their own job.

"Let's get on the road, rest assured, leave it to them here, and it will definitely be handled in an orderly manner." Qiao An stretched out her hand and pulled Li Zhongxuan.

Li Zhongxuan entered the carriage, and the two discussed where to go, they have been too busy recently, and now they can rest by the way, and the two of them will continue to visit the famous mountains and rivers.

But they didn't just walk around, but while walking, they investigated, and dealt with a lot of things along the way.

The affairs in the city have been dealt with, as for those small things, Shen Qiaoan and Li Zhongxuan did not take it to heart, and today the two of them are ready to leave this Hezhou.

Just came out of the city gate, but met Zhang Heinu and Lao Ma Spoon, and the two of them trafficked a wagon of local products to other places.

"I didn't expect Xiangye and Mrs. to be here, it's really a blessing for three lives, and I haven't thanked you for the previous things." Zhang Heinu smiled and saluted Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An.

The old horse spoon also came over to bow, and Li Zhongxuan said: "I'm afraid that the grass is still around, so a group of people say that it will disappear, which makes people puzzled, if you have any news, you must tell us as soon as possible." ”

"According to me," the old horse spoon wiped the sweat of Zhang Heinu with a scarf, "It's better for the two of you to join us, pretend to be businessmen, and walk outside while searching." ”

Hearing this, Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An glanced at each other, and the two immediately decided to advance and retreat together with their caravan.

When it was time for lunch, the old horse spoon invited them to eat, and Li Zhongxuan and Shen Qiaoan both found that this old horse spoon was very good to Zhang Heinu, so good that he completely ignored the eyes of others, and the tender and sweet appearance of the two of them made Li Zhongxuan very envious.

As for Joan, although their relationship is heating up little by little now, that's all.

Three days later, more than half of the goods were sold, and Qiao An was in the carriage and said to Zhang Heinu: "Your family is very good." ”

"It's good to me, but I'm not angry, and I can't give birth to a son and a half daughter for him, and I feel very guilty about this."

"This matter cannot be rushed." Shen Qiaoan smiled, "By the way, what's going on these nights, are you not feeling well?" I hear you humming all the time. ”

Qiao An asked this, Zhang Heinu suddenly looked up, yes, they have been living in the tent for the past few days, and she doesn't seem to hear Qiao An's "hum".

"I'm fine." Zhang Heinu's face was red and her ears were red.

"Are you really okay?" Joan wasn't convinced.

On this day, their carriage had completely left Hezhou, and according to the meaning of Lao Ma Lao and Zhang Heinu, since they had arrived in Yantai County, they were ready to buy some winter dates and go back to do business.

"This realm is not peaceful, and there have been many horses since ancient times." Before parting, Lao Ma Spoon reminded Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An to pay attention to safety.

"I knew there were so many horses here."

Li Zhongxuan likes these places, and it is not known that they may be able to find Zhao Daxiong here, and sure enough, that night, the county magistrate of Yantai County found the inn where they stayed to report.

According to the words of the county master, not only Zhao Daxiong's hometown is in Yantai County, but even the second leader is also the indigenous people of Yantai County.

Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan disguised themselves as passers-by, and they saw Zhao Daxiong from afar.

But they did not act rashly, and in the evening, a letter was delivered to Hezhou, and in the middle of the night, General Cheng came.

"What about fights? Where, say it quickly! Don't want a mother-in-law, say it quickly! "When General Cheng heard about the war, he was very excited.

"Tomorrow morning, you outflank it with your men, remember! Our goal is to fly on the grass, and his family should not be ruthless. Li Zhongxuan pointed to the map.

"Okay, I'll take my generals to a sneak attack at dawn tomorrow."

On the second day, Li Zhongxuan found someone to expand the encirclement, and General Cheng and his men easily approached Zhao Daxiong's house, Zhao Daxiong had just woken up, and saw someone holding a steel knife and flashed into the house, he hurriedly touched the mace and fought with General Cheng.

Frightened that his wife and concubine trembled in the corner, and protected the child without his life, although Zhao Daxiong was strong, General Cheng was much more powerful than him, but in sixty rounds, Zhao Daxiong fell to the ground.

"Come with me to see Xiangye, I warn you!" General Cheng said: "You Jianghu people, there is a crane top red in your teeth, I know that you will commit suicide in a critical moment, but it doesn't matter if you die, we will not forgive you children and wives, now is the time for you to atone for your crimes." ”

Come out with Zhao Daixiong.

Qiao An saw that Zhao Daxiong didn't even wear a coat, so he hurriedly stopped overdoing it, and Li Zhongxuan had Zhao Daxiong tied up and began to interrogate.

When Shen Qiaoan turned his head, someone had already put on a dress for Zhao Daxiong, and Zhao Daxiong was lying on the ground panting.

"I ask you, but what about the rest? Where are they? ”

"The sons and daughters are all scattered, and I have been a bandit for many years, and I didn't expect that one day I would crash into your hands." Zhao Daxiong does not recruit.

"General Cheng, let's kill a child for the big boss." Joan commanded, naturally, this is to scare Nobita.

The little slug was picked up by General Cheng and thrown on the ground, General Cheng held the long knife and was about to disembowel the child, and Zhao Daxiong begged for mercy again and again.

The rest of the people confessed, it turned out that this Yantai County was a well-known bandit den in Shili Eight Townships, General Cheng found someone to make a record, wrote down the home addresses of the rest of the people, and sent someone to arrest him in a moment.

At this moment, Joan approached Zhao Daxiong.

"Where are the three masters?"

"What three masters?" Zhao Daxiong frowned and was reluctant to answer, and Shen Qiaoan did not continue to ask, and looked back at General Cheng.

General Cheng sneered, grabbed Zhao Daxiong's son, kicked him to the ground, the child cried bitterly, General Cheng said: "Just wait for your father to speak, if your father doesn't say it!" Let you, father and son, go together in the western heavens. ”

Although Zhao Daxiong is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, he actually cares about his family very much, as long as he is a little rough with his family, this iron-blooded tough guy will confess everything.

"I said, I'd rather say."

"Speak quickly!" Joan approached Akira Daiyu.

"The three masters are called Shen Xingsu, I was injured three years ago, he acted chivalrous and thought I was a good person, and he saved me, I let him be the third master without retribution, he is a nominal bandit, you have something to rush at me!"

Although Zhao Daxiong confessed, but between his words, it was clear that Shen Xingsu was not their partner, Qiao An was a little suspicious, but Li Zhongxuan nodded.

"Forgive me for not daring to talk nonsense at the moment, now I want to put you to death, as for your family, we will not embarrass them." After Li Zhongxuan finished speaking, he asked General Cheng to loosen his bonds.

"Let him say goodbye to his family, we'll wait outside." Li Zhongxuan was so merciful, which made General Cheng and Qiao An a little surprised.

General Cheng let go of Zhao Daxiong and admonished: "Don't play tricks, don't burn the whole family, you have committed a crime alone, Xian Ye is lenient and only judges you, don't make the whole family go up in smoke." ”

Suddenly, Zhao Daxiong came out, got into the prisoner car, and the wife and concubine behind him wiped their tears and sent Zhao Daxiong out.

Zhao Daxiong's order to rule caused a sensation in Hezhou and Yantai County, and everyone rushed to see the cruel punishment, and Zhao Daxiong broke the car.

followed General Cheng to catch the second master, and this second master is the Zhiduoxing of Black Wind Mountain, and naturally he has the same fate as Zhao Daxiong.

The sentencing standards for the rest of the small guys are different, a small number of them were forced to become bandits, they were acquitted, and more than half of them were full of evil, and they were locked up in shackles, and those who killed countless people were sentenced on the spot.

After Li Zhongxuan dealt with these, everyone regarded Li Zhongxuan as a god, and some people in Hezhou and Yantai County even made a Li Zhongxuan's ancestral hall, and the incense was flourishing every day.

Jo Ann knew about this and smiled from ear to ear.

"I don't want to be a god."

"I'm afraid that the trees want to be quiet and the wind won't stop."

"It seems that Shen Xingsu is indeed not a heinous bad person, so let's let him go." Li Zhong preached.

Qiao An nodded, "I know that he is not a bad person in Hezhou, he has solved a lot of problems for the neighbors over the years, so the well field system is still something he came up with, and the merits are just offset." ”

The two had a tacit understanding, and after voting on their attitudes, Li Zhongxuan said: "I heard that there is a good place here, you must like it." ”

"Where, say it quickly!" JoAnn can't wait.

But Li Zhongxuan sold Guanzi, and when the carriage arrived at the destination, Qiao An smelled the fragrance of the sky, and immediately lifted the curtain, and there were lotus flowers outside.

"It's late autumn, I thought you took me to see the chrysanthemums, it turned out to be the lotus, but I'm curious, why the lotus flowers here are still blooming."

"A hundred years ago, there was an infatuated person for his lover to cultivate, that person's wife liked the lotus very much, originally he wanted to cultivate the lotus that blooms all year round, but before the wish came true, this pair of virtuous couple passed away suddenly."

The story is a bit euphemistic and moving, and after Shen Qiaoan heard it, he was inexplicably moved.

In fact, this is just a simple story that can't be more simple.

"Let's go, go down and take a look, it's this season and there are lotus flowers, it's not easy." Li Zhongxuan sent out an invitation, Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan got off the carriage, and the two got on a boat and shuttled in the lotus swing.

Shen Qiao'an stared at the pleasing words, his heart became extremely soft, and Li Zhongxuan approached Qiao An and hugged her.

The two played for a while, and suddenly heard someone calling for help.
