Chapter 129: The Huaikang Army Mutiny (3) Blockade of the Prefecture Government

In the night, slightly chaotic footsteps sounded on the official road, the sky in the distance was white, and through the gloomy moonlight, a slightly chaotic team could be seen walking from east to west towards Caizhou City.

went to the front and back halls of the door, the treasury guard, the jailer, and the old and useless, Lotte mobilized all the characters that could be mobilized in the Pingyu County Ya, including the post guards and the miscellaneous servants in the mansion and a group of white people, gathering more than 100 characters of all colors. Needless to say, Tu Si and Zhang Biao were also called.

The county patrol received an order from Chen Zhixian overnight, and gathered more than 100 archers and soldiers to rush to the county government to listen to it. These archers are all members of the van army, and they all live in the barracks of the inspection department on weekdays, and they also have the errand of security and anti-theft, so they are called in time.

The matter is urgent, and the three old men of Pingyu County can't care about the prestige of the officials at the moment, and they are squeezed into a carriage with Lotte. The four of them were silent, and the atmosphere was very depressing, and the county inspector Liu was riding a horse and following the carriage.

Lotte was silent, thinking about the things in Caizhou Prefecture alone, planning the dangers that he would probably face.

The air in the carriage was dull, and Lotte picked up the curtains on the car to breathe, and by the way, he looked behind him, and now the sky was brighter, and he could see the miscellaneous men and the archers of the inspection department walking behind the car.

As the saying goes, if there is a mutiny in Caizhou, how many of these people he brought will come back alive. But if the Caizhou soldiers did not mutiny and made such a big move, how would they explain to their superiors afterwards.

The more I thought about it, the more I thought about it, and even my face began to turn pale, and Lotte was even a little afraid in my heart, and even my legs twitched a few times from time to time, which was an urge to turn around and want to be a deserter, and even at this time, my legs and stomachs were a little uncomfortable to obey my command.

Suddenly, Lotte had an urge to slap his mouth, he had reported the news of the imminent mutiny of Caizhou's soldiers to the Imperial City Division, and then directly told Ye Zhizhou that he had completed his work, and it could be said that he had nothing to do, why was he so cheap that he had to wade into this muddy water and put himself in danger.

When I arrived in Caizhou, I didn't know if I would participate in the war in the era of cold weapons, thinking about the bloody scene of real swords and real guns, Lotte's stomach couldn't help but twitch a little, and at this moment he could only grit his teeth tightly to hide his fear and nervousness, and even more suppressed the feeling of wanting to vomit.

When I arrived in Caizhou City, the sky was already bright.

In front of the gate of Caizhou City, Lotte smelled a trace of unusual smell, according to the appearance of the past, the soldiers defending the city would open the gate will stand there in twos and threes, but today the gate is open, but there are no soldiers standing.

Could it be that something has happened? Lotte speculated in his heart, and then denied the idea, and through the city gate, he could see that the shops on the street were open for business, and the flow of people in and out of the city gate was weaving, and there was nothing unusual in the slightest.

So many people entered Caizhou City at one time, which was naturally eye-catching, and Lotte divided the card tickets approved by Ye Zhizhou with his sister-in-law Li Dutou, and took a group of messengers to Wang, Chu, and Shen to get people from the three grain merchants.

If you don't know the road, it's easy to do, just temporarily grab a few people to lead the way, and those passers-by can only be obedient when they see the errand like a wolf and a tiger.

Just when Lotte was still outside the city gate, the Caizhou Prefecture Yali sounded a few drums, a few days of the routine opening of the office, since the general judgment below the many officials gathered in the lobby to meet the Zhizhou, at the same time all kinds of people and other matters in turn to the Zhizhou report and ask for instructions, listen to the instructions, this is the Yashen.

Although the Beijing officials are noble, but the Beijing officials are not as majestic as the local officials, it seems that Ye Zhizhou is sitting in the middle of the Caizhou Prefecture Ya, and all the officials in the city in front of him are bowing down, which is quite a feeling of hundreds of officials going to court. Although many of the ceremonies on the Yashen are miniature versions of the official family's cottages, even the prime minister in Beijing does not have such treatment.

After Ye Zhizhou spoke, Huang Tong judged, signed, pushed the official, and the secretary and the branch spoke, and when these officials finished speaking, it was the turn of the four people to speak, including the secretary to join the army, the manager to join the army, the judiciary to join the army, and the secretary to join the army.

After the secretary finished speaking, the Wang Sihu joined the army and was also called Wang Hu Cao to join the army, and suddenly came out of the crowd, stepped forward and bowed to Ye Zhizhou: "The lower officials have something to participate in, and the workshop Confucius Le Tian has met the government several times and has not gotten to go, but he is really contemptuous of the old man of Zhizhou, and he is lazy and not diligent in the workshop, and he is squandered every day and sleeps in the willows, which is really detrimental to the dignity and majesty of my official office, so my subordinates think that this person should be removed from the official status and expelled from the state office." ”

Hearing Wang Sihu join the army like this, everyone was very surprised, but after thinking about it, Wang Sihu's proposal to join the army seemed to be reasonable.

Everyone knows that Lotte was transferred from Pingyu by Ye Zhizhou and will be regarded as a close confidant, but through the observation of the rest of the month, Lotte and this Zhizhou boss are not close to each other. Everyone speculated, and finally came to a conclusion, thinking that Ye Zhizhou took pity on the reputation of the musician, so he was transferred to Caizhou.

What's more, Lotte has nothing to do in the yazhong every day, and everyone snubs him, and he has no popularity. In the Song Dynasty, the imperial court issued a ban on officials from entering the restaurant for banquets, let alone staying overnight, and even officials were no exception.

"Le is not in the yazhong, I didn't expect Hu Cao to join the army, Lord Wang is still thinking about it like this, Le should be very relieved in his heart!"

Just after Wang Hucao's words fell, Lotte in a green military attache robe walked into the state hall and followed the three masters of Pingyu County and the inspection.

Hearing Lotte's sudden words, everyone turned their heads in unison and looked at Lotte, their eyes full of surprise.

Listening to Lotte talking from behind, Wang Hu Cao joined the army and turned around, saw Lotte's official uniform of the same color as himself, and reprimanded: "Dare to be a bad official, dare to arrogantly wear the official ornament of the imperial court!" ”

With a disdainful sneer, Lotte arched his hand to Ye Zhizhou, who was sitting on top of the public hall, and said, "The Imperial City Division's personal officer, Renyong Captain Lotte, greets Master Ye!" ”

After handing it over, Lotte did not forget to show the tooth card in his hand and the official certificate.

When the words fell, all the officials in Caizhou were shocked, even if Lotte had the courage, he didn't dare to make tooth cards, official notices and other things.

In front of the four-rank officials, the nine-rank military attache is really not worth mentioning, Ye Zhizhou, who was sitting in the lobby, was expressionless, and said to the sky lightly: "Your Imperial City Division has the duty of protecting the official family and being responsible for the prestige of the official family, but why did you come to my Caizhou?" ”

Ye Zhizhou directly ignored the fact that Lotte was lurking in the Caizhou State Office, and a group of officials began to speculate about the purpose of Lotte's lurking in the State Office.

Lotte arched his hand and said: "Xiaguan got the news that there are officials in the Caizhou granary who are shoddy and use moldy grain as military food, so that the garrison soldiers have many complaints. ”

Lotte spoke, and he began to feel a little related to this matter, forcing himself to remain quiet.

Ye Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

Lotte opened his mouth and said: "Xiaguan only got some news, but he can't identify ......"

"Presumptuous ......" Before Lotte finished speaking, Ye Zhizhou clenched his fists and reprimanded: "We are the officials of the imperial court, and we are loyal to the officials, and you actually slander us and other officials in the government with groundless and groundless things, it is really hateful!" ”

"What Elder Ye said is that the Imperial City Division is only responsible for the affairs of the capital, how did he extend his hand to the Caizhou Prefecture?"

"It's really hateful to slander us out of nothing!"

……

Just after Ye Zhizhou's voice fell, the officials of Caizhou Prefecture shouted one after another, of course, those officials who had ghosts in their hearts shouted the loudest.

After the voice calmed down, Lotte looked at Ye Zhizhou and chuckled: "As the saying goes: 'Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid.'" 'You refuse to cooperate with Le, is there something unscrupulous? ”

"Presumptuous!"

"A little nine-rank military attachΓ© dares to make a big deal out here......"

……

Hearing Lotte speak like this, there was another noise in the Caizhou Prefecture Yali.

With a heavy cold snort, Lotte clasped his hands into fists and said to the sky: "Although Le is just a small military attache of the Imperial City Division, he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he has the power to act cheaply in case of emergency, do you want to rebel?" ”

Lotte speaks like this, obviously pulling up the tiger skin as a banner, but it is also impeccable.

Speaking of this, Lotte gave up his hand to Ye Zhizhou and said, "Please also ask the boss to make it convenient!" ”

"That's it!" Ye Zhizhou nodded helplessly: "You can check this Caizhou Prefecture granary!" ”

"Thank you, Boss, for making it happen!" Lotte thanked him and said: "In order to prevent accidents, today's Caizhou official office is sealed, and officials and others are not allowed to enter and exit, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter or exit!" ”

Ye Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and said, "You want to seal the ya?" ”

"Exactly!" Lotte replied.

Rumble......

Listening to Lotte say this, the hall of the Caizhou Prefecture is like a fried pot, everyone knows the greasy in the granary, and the imperial court pays attention to the checks and balances of officials, and the huge granary is placed there, if there are no several officials who conspire to collude, where is it so easy to be greedy for ink.

"Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid!" Hearing the shouts of the officials of the state government, Ye Zhizhou slapped the table in front of him heavily, his eyes swept over the officials, and said, "You people are so opposed, is there something unscrupulous?" ”

Wang Hu Cao joined the army and listened to Ye Zhizhou and Lotte talking like this, and his mind buzzed, his main responsibility is to be in charge of household registration and taxation, warehouse acceptance, this treasury and granary are all under his own control, and those greasy things in the middle are all related to it.

Even the Cao judicial army is also dumbfounded, although the judicial army is the smallest among the several officials in the state government, but according to the system of this dynasty, the judicial army also manages a state's financial endowment, and matters such as closing positions and righteous positions, equalizing the errand service, and building water conservancy also need to be interrogated by the judicial army.

If you have asked about the power to close the position and the righteous warehouse, how can the things in the granary not have anything to do with it.

Someone finally saw a clue that Ye Zhizhou and Lotte were playing a double reed. Some people even speculated that Ye Zhizhou knew that Lotte was the official of the Imperial City Division, and the story transferred Lotte to Caizhou to investigate the Guancang grain case. There are also speculations that Lotte was caught by the Imperial City Division as a meticulous work, which was a bitter ploy directed and acted by the Imperial City.

Ignoring the arguing in the state court, Lotte said: "Liu Inspection! ”

"In!" Liu Xun replied.

"Your soldiers have sealed the Caizhou Prefecture Office, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, and those who violate military law will be engaged!" Lotte commanded.

"Yes!" Liu Patrol responded and walked to the gate of the Caizhou Prefecture.

After a while, neat footsteps came, and the soldiers under the inspection department entered the state office and blocked the entire state office.

Although Liu Patrol Inspection and Lotte are both military attachΓ©s of the Nine Pins, they are the Nine Rank Military Attaches of the Imperial City Division, and they can even reach the heavens. Especially in Pingyu, I heard Lotte say that he wanted to take himself to Caizhou, and the official secrets were important, this Liu Patrol was excited to star, I thought that I could only nest in Pingyu as a lifetime of Jiupin small inspection, but now I suddenly have this big opportunity, how can I not be grateful to Lotte.

It's just that what Inspector Liu didn't know was that Lotte was very unkind and didn't tell him the news that the Caizhou soldiers might mutiny.
