Chapter 1008: To the West
In the west of the city, the White Lotus Sect captured the Yamen.
"My lord, they've been waiting for a while!"
"Oh, let them in!"
"Yes!"
After a short time, a sound of footsteps walked in, and then four people knelt in the hall and signed up separately.
"Humble arrest Si Qianhu Yin Wushuang see my lord!"
"Arrest Si Baihu Lin He to see my lord!"
"Arrest Shimoto Tian Yu'er and see my lord!"
"Sin, sinner, Tian Wan Ginseng, see the arrest of the envoy!"
Hu Hu put down the manuscript in his hand, stroked his beard, stared at everyone in the hall for a while, then frowned, subconsciously stroked Huaizhong's secret decree, and then said: "Yin Wushuang!" β
"Humble duty!"
"You killed the thief Peng Ziyun with your own hands to prove your loyalty, but Peng Ziyun used to be your husband after all, and it is against ethics to kill your husband, so this official demoted you to a thousand households, and you have made meritorious contributions, do you have any complaints?"
"Don't dare!"
Yin Wushuang lay on the ground, not daring to do so.
"Tian Yu'er!"
"Humble duty!"
"In the past, you created boundless sins for the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, fortunately, you can repent and make a small contribution in the battle to exterminate the White Lotus in Jiangbei, so Your Majesty has made a special decree to forgive your sins, but you have to change your mind, be a new person, and suppress the thief for self-efficacy, are you willing?"
"Death is not enough to repay Your Majesty's grace!"
"Well, Tian Wanjia!"
"Grass, grass people are here!"
"In the past, you rebelled against the emperor and poured the water of the three rivers to wash away your sins, but Your Majesty Longen, forgive your sins, you will stay in the capital in the future and be a responsible person!"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Tian Wanjia was relieved and kowtowed again and again to thank him.
In the end, Hu Hu was silent for a moment, turned his gaze to Lin He, and said in a deep voice: "Lin He! β
"Humble duty!"
"In the past, when the White Lotus Sect was broken, you begged for mercy, and the official had the virtue of a good life, so let you suppress the thief and self-efficacy, and at the same time, the official promised that as long as you exterminate the Jiangnan White Lotus Sect, Liu Qingyin would be matched with you, but unfortunately the whole work was not completed, and Yin Qianhu was not captured, but voluntarily surrendered, and the official position is still above you, so the official can't be too forced, so the official can only promise you, if you can make a great contribution when you exterminate the Jiangnan White Lotus, the official promises, you can achieve what you want, I don't know if you can be convinced?"
Yin Wushuang didn't wear a mask today, so she looked more delicate than flowers, charming and moving, and had a different kind of heroic spirit under the background of the military uniform, when she heard Hu Hu's words, her body shook slightly, tilted her head slightly, and looked at Lin He with her afterglow, and the things contained in her eyes were complex and difficult to understand.
Lin He, on the other hand, was a little anxious, and turned his head to look at Yin Wushuang beside him: "Senior sister, don't you want to?" Why? β
Yin Wushuang glanced at him coldly, then turned his head and bowed his head and said, "My lord, now he is bent on exterminating the White Lotus Sect, and he has no other heart!" β
"It's for those two sinsβ"
"What did you say?"
Under Yin Wushuang's gaze, Lin He was cowardly and muttered, "It's nothing! It's nothing! β
Seeing this, Hu Hu shook his head secretly, this Lin He is really a failure!
"Okay, let's do this for now!"
"But, sirβ"
"Shut up!"
Hu Hu stood up, put his hands on the case, and said impatiently: "You all listen to me, Your Majesty only gave me one year, and I can't exterminate the White Lotus Sect when it expires, and the head of this official is about to move." β
"However," Hu Hui said with a hideous face: "This official is narrow-minded, he can't see that others are better off than me, and he likes to drag people into the water, and this official is also afraid of the dark and lonely, so you only have eleven months, if you can't catch Peng Qiandu, you will have to work harder, and you have to go to the king of Hades to report the news for this official!" Do you understand? β
"Don't get out yet!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
......
Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Yunwen put down the case file, was silent for a while, and said: "Hu Hui, this Yin Wushuang is really good, according to the description of the scene, she only hesitated slightly. β
"Yes, this woman is ruthless and decisive, and Weichen will observe carefully."
"You can do this, I, I, I want to ask you something."
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"Did this woman really kill her husband for the sake of her children? Is it really so important for a woman that children to be born? β
"This, the minister doesn't dare to say anything! A woman like Yin Wushuang should only be a very few! β
"Okay!" Zhu Yunwen shook his head thoughtfully, waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, tell me about your next step!" β
"Your Majesty, please look!"
Hu Hu walked to the table, pointed with a bamboo stick, and said: "Before the extermination of the Jiangbei White Lotus, Weichen asked for an order to strengthen the inventory of the Yangtze River ferries; Before the suppression of the White Lotus in Jiangnan, the investigation continued to be maintained, so the possibility of Peng Qiandu fleeing to Jiangbei was very small. β
According to the minister's estimates, Peng Qiandu fled to three places, one was to go to sea from Suzhou and escape the limelight on the southeast island; the second is to enter the Liangguang and Yunnan-Guizhou areas to the south; The third is to flee to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, and possibly as far as Sichuan and Shaanxi. β
"This-"
Zhu Yunwen frowned a little, isn't this in vain?
"Your Majesty, these three routes are possible, but the southeast island is the least likely, because the sea ban has been opened, the ships in the east China Sea and the patrol ships of our navy are constantly coming and going, and there is almost no small island that no one knows."
"This increases the trouble of its hiding, and at the same time, there is another problem with hiding on the island, that is, once it is discovered, there will be no way to escape, so Weichen thinks that the first route can be ruled out."
"In the area of Liangguang and Yunnan-Guizhou on the second route, Miao Yi live together, smoke miasma is rampant, the number of people in the White Lotus Sect is too small, it will not be able to gain a foothold in the local area, if there are too many people, it is tantamount to self-defeat, because it is easy to attract the attention of the local government and local tribes, so this route is also not feasible."
"So the most likely is the third one, Jiangxi, Huguang, Sichuan, Shaanxi, and even Gansu."
"This route has a lot of convenience for Peng Qiandu."
"First, Jiangxi and Lianghu were originally the places where the Tianwan Empire raised troops and succeeded in the past, although they have been swept many times, there must still be some fish that have slipped through the net."
"Second, although there are many Miao Yi in the local area, when Xu Shouhui and Chen Youliang were in power, they had a good relationship with the local Miao Yi, so after the Ming Dynasty set the world, Huguang Miao Yi rebelled many times, which is not unrelated, which is very likely to be used by Peng Qiandu."
"Third, the former rebellion in Chuxian County occurred at the junction of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu, and Tian Jiucheng, the father of the Tian sisters and brothers, usurped the emperor, and the rebellion lasted three years before it was suppressed by the imperial court, but to this day, there are still people in the local area who miss the traitor, so if Peng Qiandu gets there, it will be like entering a thief's den, which is convenient for them to hide."
"Fourth, and most importantly, Your Majesty implements the practice of apportioning the acres into the acres, and dispatches a large number of manpower to check the acres of land in the Jiangnan and Zhejiang areas, and counts the people, Peng Qiandu will definitely not hide in these places, but can only flee west."
"So the most likely place for him to hide is Jiangxi, Huguang and Sichuan-Shaanxi, and Weichen plans to follow this route to investigate and pursue!"
"Well, that's it," Zhu Yunwen thought for a while, then turned his head and said, "Yang Rong, what do you think?" β
"Wechen thinks it's feasible!"
"Well, so be it! Hu Hui," Zhu Yunwen raised his hand and patted Hu Hui's shoulder: "I will order these officials to cooperate closely with you, and at the same time give you the right to mobilize the local guard army, and the third battalion of special operations will also follow you!" β
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
