"Wind stop" is just a code name. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
More than a dozen fast horses galloped forward on the official road, and the people on the horses were dressed exactly the same, all of them were dressed as government officials, if they were careful people, they would definitely see the difference, and the officials on the errand used were short-handled scimitars, which were uniformly equipped by the Ministry of Industry, but these people were carrying long swords.
"My lord, the front is in Dangtu County."
A person in front of him strangled the crotch of the tall horse, behind the people slowed down, there is a stone tablet on one side of the official road, which says when Tu two big characters, the Taiping Mansion has jurisdiction over several counties, each county has its own jurisdiction, in order to distinguish, simply get a stone to carve words on it, when the day is noon, the shadow is the boundary, one side belongs to the jurisdiction of Dangtu County, and the other side belongs to Sancheng County.
"The first team will go ahead in disguise, and the others will follow me into the city after dark."
"Yes."
When the order was given, four people flashed out of the crowd, urging the crotch to dismount and enter Dangtu County, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, and the others turned to the side of the col, and everyone dismounted one after another, tied the horse to the tree, and let it bow its head and nibble on the grass on the ground.
"My lord, how sure is this night attack on Dangtu County?"
The leader sneered, "If everything goes well, it will be easy to solve this matter." ”
"Will there be any trouble afterwards?" The man couldn't help but ask again.
"It's best not to alarm those people, leave immediately after solving the trouble, you are familiar with the road of the county office, when the time comes, take a few people to rush in, come and make a move, leave immediately after the matter is completed, and leave the rest to me."
"Don't worry, sir."
It was still early, and everyone simply sat on the ground to rest, each with their own thoughts and without saying a word, and if it were not for the seven horses outside, they would not even be able to imagine that there were people in the col.
These people are the Black Wind Guards under the state government, the leader of the Black Wind is ruthless, there are not a few people who have died in the hands of the Black Wind over the years, and the three of Tang Lin secretly got the blood letter of the people in the name of visiting relatives, and they were chased and killed by the Black Wind team.
Why are these people here?
Lin Feng released the news, and soon reached the ears of the state capital, what when the Tu County Order avenged the grievances of the people, the order to inspect the case has progressed, etc., etc., although there is no exact content, I still can't sit still, after all, there have been a lot of letters in the past, I only blame myself for being too careless, this kind of thing is better than now, when the Tu County Order becomes the other party's person, isn't it dangerous.
Life and death are at stake, don't dare to make any mistakes, these are completely in line with human psychology, the more high-ranking people are, the more worried they are about losing everything they have at this time.
"Heifeng, how is this official treating you?"
"En's higher than the sky."
The governor nodded, clenching the teacup in his right hand, "Okay, do something for me, take people on a trip, some people shouldn't live in this world." ”
"Humble duty understands." Black Wind is expressionless, born to be the material of a killer, cold-blooded and decisive.
"Be careful."
It was nearly dusk, and a group of several people entered Dangtu County, wearing the clothes of the officials and carrying tokens on their bodies.
The sound of horses' hooves quickly faded away, and a person looked inside, "It's bad and something happened again!" ”
"Don't worry about so many idle things, as long as we don't have an accident, even if the county hall is on fire, it has nothing to do with our brothers." The other person said, leaning in casually, just waiting for the sun to set, these gatekeepers are used to being lazy, and many things are turned a blind eye.
"This is also, who is lucky and who is unlucky this year, it's really fucking uncertain, the master let people beat the board and drove them out, I heard that the adults also let people shut down, what are the origin of these people!"
"I can't afford to mess with it anyway."
A group of several people stopped in front of the largest inn in Dangtu County, and a guy had already come over, seeing that he was on an errand and did not dare to provoke, he smiled, and a few people gave up the reins, and took out the silver to ask for a few upper rooms and some wine and food.
"Man, I heard that something happened in Dangtu County recently?"
"But no, the county magistrate opened a court to try the case, and also opened the grain warehouse, saying that it was ordered by the imperial court, let's take Tu County by the disaster, and it can be reduced this year, I didn't expect that there is really such a good thing."
"Opening the warehouse and releasing grain, it sounds really fresh."
"Where are the masters on errands?"
"The life of running errands, don't talk about it, let's have a pot of good wine."
"Gotcha." The guy promised to run away quickly, and one of them made a look and whispered: "It seems that the news is correct, after eating, go around the county office, and wait for the adults to come and then figure out a way." ”
"Okay."
At dusk, the area around the county government office was even more deserted, and even the guards at the door didn't know where to run to be lazy. ”
The person at the head looked left and right, and the guards of the Tu County Government were too loose, but they couldn't figure out the situation inside from the outside, "It's okay, if someone asks, just deal with a few words." ”
A few people walked in quickly, until they came to the front yard, and suddenly two people came in front, and several people hurriedly bowed their heads, pretending to be on patrol, almost sticking to the past, and the other party just nodded and signaled, and did not notice that several people were fresh faces.
"If this case is solved, the county order should be the first credit, and Lin Feng will definitely personally ask the emperor for the merit."
"Don't dare, don't dare, the humble function is so kind to the little prince and the two adults, I am grateful, and I will do my best." The sound came from the middle room, and several people slowed down their steps, holding their breath, not daring to get close to the sky, so as not to be discovered.
There were bursts of laughter in the room, the leader pointed his finger back, and several people quickly retreated, the goal has been achieved, the rumors are true, when the Tu County Order defected, the entire Dangtu County Government was like a fictitious.
"My lord, the man is gone."
One person dodged in, it was Li Hu, who had been hiding in the dark, a few people sneaked up and approached completely in the eyes, Lin Feng got up, there was no Tu county order in the house, there were injuries, and it was inconvenient to move, but Zhang Rui was just pretending, just a few people appeared around the county office, Lin Feng's good hand in the dark has been discovered, according to Lin Feng, it is just a few small characters who come to step on the point, and the real big head is still behind.
Unexpectedly, these people were bold, they came in with such a swagger, and they really regarded their official uniforms as a gold medal for avoiding death, such a raw face could be recognized at a glance, and two people walked out of it, the same people brought by Lin Feng, if they hadn't been ordered, they would have rushed over and knocked to the ground with three strikes and five divisions.
"There will definitely be action in the next few days, telling the brothers to be vigilant at night." This is Lin Feng's unique intuition, including some inferences, from the moment he sent out the news, count ten days, the state capital will definitely react, I didn't expect that it really came.
"My lord, it's better to follow the vine and find the place where those people live, and then serve it in a pot."
"It's not time yet, these are just spies, and when we learn that when Tu County Commander becomes our person, we will definitely be in a hurry to do it, and then we will collect the net, and we will definitely be able to get big fish."
"Ahh
"Oops." Just as Lin Feng and the others were discussing countermeasures in the big house, the screams of the officials came from outside the door, followed by the man's loud scolding.
"Tang Niu."
Lin Feng got up, Xiao He and the others who were closest to the door had already rushed out, and there was a black-faced man standing in the courtyard, followed by a person, most of his body was blocked by the black-faced man, it was Tang Niu and Lu Jun who had not been seen for many days.
"Brother Tang."
"Lao Tzu just said that it was here, but he didn't let him in." Tang Niu was happy, strode to the front, the brothers were very close to each other, but the two officials who fell to the ground were also kind, and when they saw someone coming in and interrogating, most of them were used to it, and their tone was harder, and they didn't want the other party to raise their hands to fight.
"Lord Lin, Lord Qi."
"Come in and talk."
Tang Niu and the others entered, saw the wine and food on the table, quickly went over, grabbed it in his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, and shouted again and again, "It's delicious, it's delicious." ”
Look at the two of them again, but I haven't seen them for a month, as if they have changed a person, Tang Niu's whole person has lost weight, Lu Jun has darkened a lot, and he has gone to a remote place during this time, not to mention this kind of wine and food, it is a luxury to be able to eat a full meal, and most of the dry food on his body is given to those poor children, who are not less hungry, and they are not enough to eat at this time.
"Happy." Tang Niu wiped the corners of his mouth, patted his belly, and drank a bowl of wine with a satisfied face.
"Silly cow, why don't you tell me where you've been these days!"
"Don't mention it, the life of the people in Taiping Mansion is too hard, counting the rice grains in the pot, you can see the bottom of the gruel." Tang Niu gestured with his hand, what he said was the fact that he saw it with his own eyes, not intentionally exaggerated, Tang Lin said that he saw with his own eyes, in order to make up enough taxes and silver, many people were forced to sell their fields cheaply, and there were not a few families who were desperate to find a short-sightedness.
"I didn't expect that the people lived such a life." Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but feel sad when he heard this, when he was in the capital, he was used to seeing the prosperity, thinking that the entire Ming Dynasty was the same as the capital, until he left the capital and saw the outside world with his own eyes, and the prosperity of the capital must be completely two worlds here.
