Chapter 504: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

At the north gate of Yazhou, three fast horses galloped out and came to Meizhou without looking back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Peng Wanghai, the 42-year-old assassin of Meizhou, was discussing matters with the officials of Meizhou at this time, and the county orders of the five counties under the jurisdiction of Meizhou, Tongyi, Pengshan, Danji, Hongya, and Qingshen were also present. Master Peng was preaching to them, "...... After you go back, you must have a brighter mind, and you must give advice to your subordinates at all levels. Let them all pay attention to some of their own remarks, especially when dealing with people in Yazhou officials, they must be cautious when they say something, and they must not be trustworthy. ”

The crowd unanimously said "yes".

Governor Shi also added, "What Master Peng said is extremely true. The lower officials also thought that the two counties of Hongya and Pengshan were bordered by Yazhou, and the people in the county had a lot of connections with Yazhou, especially some officials and errand officers who were still in-laws of their children there. So, do you want to give another advice in this regard? ”

Peng Wanghai said, "What Lord Changshi said, you must not ignore it when you go back......" Just as he was saying this, an attendant came in and said to Shi Shi, "There is a letter from Lord Sima Wang of Yazhou who has arrived." ”

All the officials looked at Master Peng, they just said that they were going to block the news from Yazhou, why did Yazhou write a letter. Peng Wanghai waved his hand and said, "You just say that I am not there, or let him leave the letter, and I will not see anyone." ”

The man said, "My lord, the three of them didn't bring any letters...... It's a message. Peng Wanghai was stunned for a moment, and said to his subordinates, "Everyone, please go back, use some thoughts on this, in case something goes wrong, Li Tingshi of Yazhou will dare to hit the Golden Palace, and Chengdu Mansion will not be able to protect us at that time." ”

After the crowd dispersed, three people from Yazhou were invited in. They seemed shrewd and capable, and as soon as they entered, they surveyed everyone in the room. Peng stabbed Shi waved his hand to his subordinates and told them to go out as well.

After a while, Peng Tingshi hurriedly came out of the hall, stood on the steps and shouted, "Hurry, hurry up and divide up some people, and chase back all the adults who just left!" "This is worth it, the second lady of Xizhou Beijia and Yazhou Li Tingshi has been killed, I don't know where people have been, I don't know which county they have gone to, I don't know what people they have met, and what they want to do I know, but I still don't know how to do it.

Subsequently, Master Peng instructed, "Know all counties, pay close attention to the two official roads between Meizhou and Yazhou, and report back to me in time as soon as there is news." Governor Shi of Mei came up and said with relief, "Master Peng, you don't have to worry too much, they are a private visit to Weifu, what real news can they come into contact with?" ”

Master Peng said with palpitations, "Lord Chen, how do you know who this Xizhou driver is!" He should have stayed in the ranch in Xizhou honestly, but who would have thought that he would run to Jiannan Road? In short, let's be careful. ”

In the Yazhou Post House, Li Daojue was with Xizhou Beijia Gaojun, and his second wife Li Jueling was pouring tea for the two.

Li Daojue asked, "Brother-in-law, what do you say...... Is our method of startling the snake work? He was a little skeptical, but he still had to choose to believe Gao Jun. Because in addition to unbelief and incomprehension, there is also a vague anger in his heart now. Could it be that those colleagues in Jiannan Dao really dared to kick him, a dignified royal clansman, out of the matter?

Gao Jun said, "Lord Thorn Shi, let's wait patiently for a few days, anyway, the rumors have been released, we don't have to go anywhere, we just need to see Meizhou's reaction." ”

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "I thought I was really going to Meizhou." ”

Gao Jun said, "Lord Thorn Shi, what should you do if the situation is true and people don't lie to you?" ”

Li Daojue asked, "Yes, what should I do?" ”

Gao Jun said, "Whether it's true or not, Yazhou should have a few days of tight life." The last time I went to Rongjing County, it was not a good look, didn't Lord Li notice it? ”

Li Daojue muttered unconvinced, "I have noticed...... What do I perceive? Gao Jun was amused by his demeanor, which showed that he didn't notice. The sensitivity of this Lord Thorn to the winds and grasses in the officialdom is far less than that of various famous wines.

Li Daojue said, "Rongjing County is a place that cannot be underestimated, although Rongjing does not have any money, only a copper mine, and often makes ends meet, but there are many places to spend money, and they are all spent justifiably. ”

He said that Rongjing County is located in the southwest of the Yazhou Prefecture, and at the same time is the southwest military barrier of Chengdu Prefecture, and there are five garrison cities of Jizhong, Fighting, Victory, Longyou, and Niyang distributed on the surrounding mountains and main roads, with 800 people in each city, and there are two military towns in Shiyang and Anguo, with 2,000 people in each town, and there are 5,000 Jintang troops stationed on Qionglai Mountain, which is tens of thousands of people. Coupled with the upper, middle, and lower three levels of garrisons scattered around the area, it is impossible to say how many people there are. However, the silver spent there in Yazhou Mansion every year is like flowing water.

Gao Jun said, "But in my opinion, those garrisons and guards are not all doing their jobs. ”

Li Daojue said, I haven't thought about this, but Yazhou has been peaceful all these years, and there must be a reason to set up a military town in those places, right? The situation is so complicated, surrounded by Longqiao, Boshen, Daqi and other Qiang tribes, and the west is the territory of Tubo after the Mohe River, how can it be done without heavy guards?

"What about Rongjing County? The next time I went to Rongjing County, I had to be squeezed by three ferrymen to cross the river, wasn't it Guandu? How do you still collect money from passers-by? The next time I went to Rongjing County, just in time to harvest the autumn grain, there were four or five people in the yamen who played the flute and pinched their eyes, but the director of the department made it difficult for ordinary county citizens and stared at the people who were playing there. ”

Li Jueling asked, "I remember, last time you let people chase me and drill my family's wine cellar, was it the work of the military town on Rongjing Mountain?" ”

Gao Jun smiled bitterly and said, this kind of faceless thing, sister, you don't have to tell Master Thorn Shi. He said to Li Daojue, "However, the purpose of setting up a military town is not to put on a show, but to really play a role in preventing and stopping chaos." Master Li, as the governor of a state, you can't do it without thinking about these things. Otherwise, the wool is out of the sheep, and the burden is pressed on the people of Yazhou, and it is pressed to a certain temperature, I am afraid that Lord Thorn Shi will not be in the mood to taste your fine wine again! ”

Li Daojue listened and nodded quickly, "Don't hide it, uncle, where do I know these things you said!" I still know a little about the affairs in the county, but as long as those who are guarding and arresting points and whatnot, as long as they report from below, saying that they want to plant a town and build a city here and there, I can only pretend to understand and nod and pay for the money! ”

It seems that Li Da Thorn Shi really doesn't treat Gao Jun as an outsider, and he even turned out of the water.

Mrs. Li said, "Husband, my brother is so easy to come here in Yazhou, you should ask him." You don't know what my brother is capable of in military affairs? Then you must have heard about my brother's deeds in the Western Regions, Liaodong, and Mobei, right? We can't listen to everything below. (To be continued.) )
