Chapter 585: Life or Death, Only Between Your Words (First Update)
Chapter 585
"Because the lower officials live in the back house, and there are many people in the back house, although these fine works are not afraid of death, they must not dare to alarm people, not to mention that this is where the official office is, no matter where they burn it, it will definitely cause panic and riots."
"Don't you think it's strange that this place has been burned down like this, and only two messengers have found out?" Wang Yang's tone seemed very casual, but his words were like knives.
"Oh, this matter, the lower officials also know, that day, it was when the Western Xia people attacked very urgently, and the village warriors and messengers were all sent out to prevent the Xixia in the city from making trouble in the city again."
"And Song Mou is also searching in the city with a team of village warriors, and when he returns to this county office, this place will already be ......," Song Dechang said with regret on his face.
"Yes, fortunately, Xu Da and Zhao Laosan, the two guards of the county government, found out in time and killed the three Xixia Xizuo in time, but unfortunately, the two of them were also injured a lot, and it was difficult to put out the fire, and by the time people were called, it was almost burned here."
Speaking of this, Ning Xian Ling's face was full of shame, and he bowed to Wang Yangshen. "Please also ask your lord to punish the crime of dereliction of duty."
"I see, it doesn't matter, as long as no one lives, by the way, where are the two heroic wounded officers now?" Wang Yang asked after waving his hand.
"Oh, the lower officials let them go home to recuperate, if the adults want to see them, the lower officials will send someone to pass them over." Ning Xian Ling hurriedly spoke.
"That's not necessary, when I have the opportunity, the official will personally visit them." Wang Yang nodded suddenly.
"By the way, the official has other official business, so I'll go and get busy first, the request of Lord Song and Lord Le, the official will go back and think about it first." Wang Yang took a step, and accompanied by these two people, he strode towards the outside of the county office.
However, after not taking many steps, Wang Yang seemed to remember the matter and asked. "Since those Western Xia are disguised as traders and hunters, then they must have come with goods, right?"
"That's natural, but most of those goods have been sold by them, and only a few of the seized ones are stored in the county treasury, and as for the property they got after selling, it has been mostly used for eating, drinking, and having fun."
Lexian Ling smiled disdainfully. "Adults must not know that those Western Xia barbarians, located in the bitter cold land, after coming to my Song Realm, they are like a bunch of dirt buns, eager to spend all their belongings in this flower world."
Song Dechang also nodded and smiled. "Although this Huanzhou City is not big, in addition to the more than 30,000 people of the Great Song Dynasty, there are really a lot of merchants, wine shops, hook places, and gambling stalls......
"Well, the official knows, it seems that those Xixia meticulous works are really a bunch of outlaws, I'm afraid that they also know that their lives are short, so they will spend all their possessions, right?" Wang Yang nodded approvingly.
Wang Yang walked out of the county government of Tongyuan County, and after saying goodbye to these two, he turned over and jumped on horseback and moved forward. It wasn't until he galloped more than 100 steps and turned a street corner that Wang Yang reined in his horse's head and walked in another direction.
"Childe, didn't you say that you were going to patrol the prisoner of war camp outside the city today?" Wu Qilang couldn't help but be stunned.
"You and Ling Zong are staring here first, to see if anyone from the county government is leaving, I'll go to find Ma Shang first, and let Xu Zhao and their guys come over to help." Wang Yang's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said to Wu Qilang.
"Childe, what is this ......" Ling Zong and Wu Qilang looked at Wang Yang in confusion.
"Do you really believe that Ning County Commander is really as worried about the country and the people as he boasts?" Wang Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes and said.
"Could it be that he is also a fine work of Western Xia?" Ling Zong's eyes lit up, and he was eager to try, wanting to rush back to the county government to arrest the dead fat man.
“…… You two will keep an honest eye on me, and I'll let Xu Zhao and them come over to help in a while, understand? Wang Yang felt very tired, and he really didn't want to explain his thoughts to these two idiots.
Soon, five royal guards also joined the stalking team in casual clothes, and in addition, Wang Yang also sent someone to inquire about the homes of the messengers Xu Da and Zhao Laosan.
In less than an hour, Wang Yang came to the house of the messenger Xu Da, and Wu Qilang, who had returned to Wang Yang's side, stepped forward and banged on the heavy door.
Soon there was an impatient cheer from inside. "Who the fuck, wait ......"
After a short time, the door was opened, and Wang Yang saw Xu Da, an errand officer with a bandage on his left arm and hanging around his neck.
"You, you are ......" Seeing Wu Qilang, who was more than a head taller than himself, Xu Da, who was originally arrogant, couldn't help but change his face, and then his eyes fell on Wang Yang, who was standing behind Wu Qilang, although he was dressed in casual clothes, but he looked extraordinary, and he couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart.
"You're Xu Da who works as an errand in the county government, right?" Wang Yang smiled and lifted his front placket and walked inside, while Xu Da, who was originally blocking the door, had to retreat and give way to the door.
After Wu Qilang then entered the courtyard, he reflexively bolted the door and stood behind Wang Yang.
"The little one is on an errand in the county government, I don't know what this son is looking for? ......" Seeing Wu Qilang's actions, Xu Da couldn't help but start to get a little nervous.
"How many years have you known Lexian Ling?" Wang Yang did not enter the room, but stood in the courtyard, raised his chin towards Xu Da, a dry and thin monkey, and asked.
"Who the hell are you?" As soon as he heard the three words of Lexian Order, Xu Da's face couldn't help but look more nervous than before, and he subconsciously asked.
"This official is the newly appointed military Wang Yang of Huanzhou Prefecture, I guess you should have heard of this official, right?" Wang Yang grinned, his neat white teeth looked extraordinarily infiltrating.
"Wang, Lord Wang Yang? The small leader of the county is Xu Da, and he meets the big officials. Xu Da looked at Wang Yang in a daze, and then glanced at Wu Qilang, who was standing with a knife beside Wang Yang, and quickly fell to the ground.
"It doesn't have to be like this, get up and talk back." Wang Yang raised his hand and motioned for Xu Da to get up, then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Da, whose expression was a little frightened.
"You were also present in the case of the fire in the county government's study, right?" Wang Yang didn't give the other party any time to think at all, and asked directly.
Xu Da's face changed slightly, but he still nodded honestly. "Yes, the little one was indeed there at the time, I don't know how ...... you are, the big official."
"Very good, that official has something to ask you, which is related to your own net worth. Life, or death, is only between your words......"
