In the Wujiang County Yali, in the conference hall, the county lieutenant Mao Bao stood in the center of the hall, reporting everything about Gao Fei to a middle-aged man in an official uniform who was sitting at the top of the seat.

The middle-aged man was Huan Yi, the county magistrate of Wujiang County, who was about thirty-five years old, with a dignified appearance, a talent, two long hairs hanging from his cheeks, a beard only one or two inches long on his chin, and a pair of jeweled eyes under his sword eyebrows, looking gentle and elegant.

After listening to Mao Bao's report, Huan Yi was very interested in the child named Gao Fei that Mao Bao said, and his right hand stroked the long hair hanging down from his cheek, and said: "According to what you say, this child named Gao Fei is brave and resourceful, and he can do such things at a young age, it is really not simple, and this county really wants to see this child." ”

"Lord Qiyu County, now that Gao Fei has been taken back to the Li Mansion by Li Cheng's people, if we want to collect evidence of Li Cheng's crime, we must cooperate with Gao Fei inside and outside, only in this way can we really wipe out Li Cheng and others, completely eradicate these tumors, and eliminate harm for the people!" Mao Bao said indignantly.

For what Mao Bao said, Huan Yi thought it was true, Li Cheng relied on having an in-law with King Chen, and acted mischiefly in the local area, and the previous county commanders turned a blind eye to Li Cheng, but he Huan Yi hated people like Li Cheng the most. To put it nicely, Li Cheng is the richest man in Wujiang County, and to put it mildly, Li Cheng is a big bully in Wujiang County. Huan Yi has always been jealous and hateful, and he naturally can't tolerate people like Li Cheng in his eyes, and in the three years he has been in office, he has secretly competed with Li Cheng many times, although they all ended in his victory, but these things are all trivial things for Li Cheng, and they can't hurt him at all.

In order to completely bring down Li Cheng, Huan Yi set his sights on the salt industry, ready to start from the direction of salt, but the salt industry has a special management system, and it is not within his scope of responsibility, and every time he inspects the salt shop, he takes advantage of the excitement and returns, and later Huan Yi figured out that the salt officials in the county have already colluded with Li Cheng.

For this reason, Huan Yi could only secretly collect evidence, hoping to find a breakthrough in the salt industry, and entrusted all this matter to Mao Bao, the county lieutenant who was also jealous of him.

However, for more than a month, Mao Bao has found nothing, and it was not until the appearance of Gao Fei in recent days that things took a big turn.

Mao Bao told Huan Yi everything about Gao Fei, although Huan Yi was also curious about why Gao Fei knew how to make refined salt at a young age, but what he couldn't figure out the most was that a five-year-old child actually had more intelligence than adults. At the same time, Huan Yi also has to thank Gao Fei, because it is his appearance that has made Mao Bao, who has not made any progress for more than a month, have a breakthrough.

Moreover, what Huan Yi didn't expect was that this kid named Gao Fei was so smart that he took the initiative to contact Mao Bao and seek cooperation with him.

"Shuo Zhen, this child's intelligence has already surpassed ordinary people, have you ever thought that this child is a blessing brought to us by God?" Huan Yi asked suddenly.

Shuo is really Mao Bao's character, he is about ten years younger than Huan Yi, and the two of them are not only superiors and subordinates, but also brothers. In private, Mao Bao treats Huan Yi like his own brother, and Huan Yi treats Mao Bao like his own brother, often calling Mao Bao the word to show kindness.

Mao Bao was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and suddenly laughed and said, "Don't say it, it seems to be the case." ”

Huan Yi said: "Since Gao Fei took the initiative to contact you and wanted to seek cooperation with us, then we can't let him down." Although Gao Fei was now accepted into the Li Mansion by Li Cheng, the Li Mansion was not a heavily guarded place. Shuozhen, you must try to get in touch with Gao Fei, and take a closer look at Li Cheng's affairs, collect more evidence, as long as there is evidence, the county will not worry about not being able to catch him, even if King Qian comes to intercede in person, he will not want to take Li Cheng out! ”

Mao Bao said "snort" and responded: "My subordinates know, please rest assured, the county magistrate, I will sneak into the Li Mansion tonight to find out the news......"

"Father!" Without waiting for Mao Bao to finish speaking, a person shouted loudly and broke in from outside.

The person who came was an eight-year-old child, but he was tall and sturdy, but he looked thirteen or fourteen years old, and his face was somewhat similar to that of the county commander Huanyi.

This eight-year-old child is none other than Huan Wen, the eldest son of the county commander Huan Yi.

Huan Yi saw his son Huan Wen walking in from outside, and said in an unhappy mood: "Wen'er, didn't you see that I was discussing things with Lieutenant Mao?" Why didn't you just break in without a notice? ”

Huan Wen first bowed to Huan Yi, and then said: "Please calm your anger, Lord Father, Wen Er also broke in in a hurry, and Uncle Mao is not an outsider, I broke in rashly, Uncle Mao will definitely not blame my ......"

Huan Wen turned his words, turned his face to look at Mao Bao, and asked, "Yes, Uncle Mao!" ”

Mao Bao laughed dryly, stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said to Huan Yi: "Lord County Commander, Wen'er usually follows the rules, and besides, what we usually talk about, Wen'er is mostly listening to it on the sidelines, and there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so restrained, right?" ”

Huan Yi said with relief: "That's it." Wen'er, you just said that you broke in in a hurry, what is it that makes you forget your usual etiquette! ”

Huan Wen hurriedly took out a letter from his arms, held it in his hand, and handed it directly to Mao Bao's hand, and said, "Uncle Mao, this is a letter for you!" ”

"A letter to me?" Mao Bao was taken aback, but he still took the letter, only to see that there were five vigorous and powerful words written on it, "Mao County Lieutenant personally enlightened".

Mao Bao didn't open the letter immediately, but asked Huan Wen first: "Where did this letter come from?" ”

Huan Wen said: "A little child sent it over, and he went to the gate of the county government in person, saying that he was looking for the county lieutenant Mao, and I happened to come back from outside, so I received the letter for you." As for who sent it, the kid didn't know, but said that someone gave him a big sum of money to send a letter to the county office, and that's it. I felt strange, so I hurriedly ran in, I was in a hurry, I forgot the etiquette, and asked Uncle Mao not to blame it! ”

Mao Bao smiled and waved his hand at Huan Wen and said, "It's just a little thing, I won't blame you." ”

As he spoke, Mao Bao opened the letter, and a piece of silky silk slipped from it, but the silk was full of dense words, and the handwriting of these words was exactly the same as that on the envelope, which should have been written by the same person.

Mao Bao hurriedly glanced at the contents of the letter, and the whole person was stunned in surprise, and after a while, he hurriedly walked to Huan Yi's side and said eagerly: "My lord, it's Gao Fei's letter, please take a look!" ”

When Huan Yi first got the letter, he hadn't seen the content of the letter, and his brows furrowed. The text of the letter seemed familiar to him at the same time. These characters are a bit similar to the popular official scripts now, but they are a little different, I can't say which font it is, but no matter what kind of font, this letter can definitely be written by a person who has a certain degree of knowledge in calligraphy.

"What good calligraphy!" Huan Yi praised it, "The person who wrote this letter must have a high calligraphy attainment......

Seeing this, Mao Bao hurriedly said to Huan Yi: "My lord, read the content of the letter first!" ”

Huan Yi loves calligraphy and has a certain study of calligraphy, but it is a pity that he can't write good calligraphy himself, which is really distressing. So every time I see someone else's calligraphy, I will be envious. He heard Mao Bao's prompt, and then began to look at the contents of the letter.

This look made him gasp, and the words "Zhao State Envoy" in the letter made him stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Father! Father! Seeing this, Huan Wen hurriedly pushed Huan Yi.

Huan Yi was pushed by Huan Wen, relieved himself, and hurriedly said to Mao Bao: "The matter has exceeded our expectations, you get in touch with Gao Fei as soon as possible and investigate the matter of the envoy of Zhao State clearly, if the situation is true, Li Chengxiu wants to escape from the palm of this county again!" ”
