Ye Mansion, study. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Approaching evening, Ye Xin was still in the study to deal with government affairs.

In the past, in the evening, the various officials of the county government would come at this time to ask for instructions on what to do the next day. But at this time today, not even a single assistant has come, and the situation is a little strange.

This has never happened before.

"Someone!"

Ye Xin's brows furrowed, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

The door opened, and the butler entered.

Ye Xin suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Go and ask, why haven't the officials of the county government come yet?" ”

"No!"

The butler nodded in response, and then turned and left the study.

Ye Xin sat in the study and continued to wait. But for some reason, there were always some palpitations in his heart, and he always felt unsteady, as if something had happened.

Half an hour later, the butler returned, with a strange look on his face.

Ye Xin chuckled in his heart, a trace of worry appeared on his old face, and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

The housekeeper bowed down and said, "The master of the house, the assistants in each room are sick and can't come." ”

"Bastard!"

Ye Xin's anger grew, slapped him on the desk, and shouted angrily: "What is the disease? Could it be that everyone contracted the wind chill at the same time? Is it really a fool to be an old man? ”

After a pause, Ye Xin scolded: "Give the old man a thorough investigation of what happened." ”

"No!"

The butler hurriedly left, he went to check the news, and a quarter of an hour later, he returned.

Ye Xin asked, "What is going on?" ”

The housekeeper replied: "At this time, it should be related to Liu Xuan." ”

Ye Xin's hand pressed on the desk, leaned forward slightly, and said in a deep voice: "What happened to Liu Xuan?" ”

The housekeeper replied: "Early this morning, there was news in the city that Liu Xuan had killed Ye Lie, the thief leader of Jiulu Mountain, and surrendered two thousand thieves from Jiulu Mountain. In addition, Liu Xuan also subdued Zhou Cang, the yellow turban thief in Qingqiu Mountain. Now, Liu Xuan took Ye Lie's head, as well as the soldiers of Zhou Cang, Jiulu Mountain and Qingqiu Mountain who returned to Shun into the city. ”

"What?"

Ye Xin was suddenly startled, and his face was full of incredulous expressions.

This news is shocking.

Ye Xin still didn't believe it, and said: "Liu Xuan has no soldiers and no power, how can he kill Ye Lie, what's going on?" ”

The housekeeper had doubts on his face, and said with a straight face: "Family master, there is no news yet, I don't know how Liu Xuan got it." Now I only know that Ye Lie's head was brought back by Liu Xuan, and it was hung into the city, and Ye Lie was really killed. ”

"Shhh

Ye Xin gasped, and then sat down.

There was a hint of gloom in his eyes.

The reason why Ye Xin was able to control Guanyang County was because of the support of the family behind him on the one hand, and the chaotic situation in Guanyang County on the other hand.

Now the situation is different, Liu Xuan quietly killed Ye Lie, subdued Zhou Cang, and eliminated the two biggest bandits in Guanyang County, which must have greatly increased his prestige and convinced the people of Guanyang County.

The most important thing is that Liu Xuan collected the bandits of Zhoucang and Jiulu Mountain, and the troops under his command were close to 3,000 soldiers. This force made Ye Xin dare not act rashly, and he was even quite jealous.

What to do?

In Ye Xin's mind, he suddenly felt that things were tricky.

The situation is out of control.

Ye Xin suppressed the shocked emotions in his heart and asked, "Where is Liu Xuan now?" ”

The butler nodded and said, "Place the bandits in the barracks." ”

"Got it, let's go down."

Ye Xin stiffened his face and waved his hand to let the housekeeper retreat.

Crunch!

After the door closed, Ye Xin sat alone in the study, thinking quietly.

"Alas...... underestimated Liu Xuan. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Xin couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Liu Xuan took the initiative to show weakness at the beginning, did not seize power, did not take care of things, and everything in Guanyang County acted as usual. didn't expect Liu Xuan's breakthrough to be so simple and rude, and it was even a trick to draw salary. Now the situation has reversed, and everything is in Liu Xuan's hands.

"That's it, bear with me. You are young and vigorous, and there will always be a time when you show your flaws. ”

After thinking about it, Ye Xin made a decision.

He has lived most of his life, he has seen big and small storms, and he can bend and stretch, which for him, he is not at a loss. Now that Liu Xuan has risen, let Liu Xuan be arrogant.

……

Inside the city, barracks.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Liu Xuanduan sat on the main seat, and Zhou Cang sat below.

Zhou Cang's face was serious, and he reported: "Lord, two thousand soldiers of Jiulu Mountain, I have carried out the reorganization. Of the 2,000 people, 1,468 were qualified and 532 were not. Considering that more than 500 people were bandits before, once all of them are dismissed, according to their temperament, without restraint, I am afraid that they will defect to the rest of the bandits, and it is impossible to be good. Therefore, they were given the position of handymen in the barracks, responsible for carrying grain, washing and cooking, etc. In this way, it is possible to restrain their personality and gradually change them. ”

Liu Xuan had a smile on his face and said, "Your consideration is very correct, the soldiers of Jiulu Mountain are loose and have long been rebellious and ferocious, and they need to be controlled. That's what you arrange. ”

"No!"

Zhou Cang nodded, looking quite relaxed.

After coming down from Qingqiu Mountain, the burden on his shoulders was put down, and he was indescribably relaxed.

Since then, he has been a thief no more.

Liu Xuan changed his words and said, "The soldiers in the barracks must be trained as soon as possible. You are the leader of one of the Yellow Turbans, and you know how to train soldiers. We must train our soldiers more and do what they are ordered and prohibited. There will be a lot of battles ahead. ”

"Yes, don't worry, my lord."

Zhou Cang responded with his fists, confident and long.

There are only more than 2,000 soldiers, and it is not difficult for him to control them.

Liu Xuan said: "I'll leave the affairs of the military camp to you, I'll go back to the county government first, and there are still things to deal with over there." ”

"No!"

Zhou Cang stood up and personally sent Liu Xuan away.

Liu Xuan left the barracks, and as soon as he returned to the county office, he received a message from the soldiers, and Li Yi asked to see him.

In the study, the guest and the host are seated.

Li Yi said respectfully: "Lord, there are a total of 30,000 stones of grain in Jiulu Mountain, and the money is incalculable. The lowly officials have ordered that food and money be continuously moved back to the city, and then put into the treasury and blockade. ”

As he spoke, Li Yi handed over a list detailing the situation on Jiulu Mountain.

Liu Xuan didn't look at it, and said, "This official believes in County Lieutenant Li." ”

In a word, Li Yi was relieved.

Liu Xuan asked him to deal with the food and money in Jiulu Mountain, but Li Yi noticed it, this was a test. If Liu Xuan wants to verify how much food and money there is, it will be easy to check it clearly, and then check it with the list he handed over.

Therefore, Li Yi counted the materials, was extremely attentive, and never greedy for half a penny.

Li Yi said again: "Lord, Ye Lie's house is really inferior to a beast." On Jiulu Mountain, dozens of young women were found, all of whom were imprisoned by Ye Lie. Now, the women are wrapped up and sent home. ”

Liu Xuan said: "Well done, County Lieutenant Li has worked hard." ”

Li Yi hurriedly said: "It's not hard to be humble. As soon as the words changed, Li Yi said: "When I entered the city, I heard that the lord had subdued the Yellow Turban soldiers of Zhoucang and Qingqiu Mountain? ”

"Yes!"

Liu Xuan said: "Zhou Cang has returned to his own officials, and the soldiers of Qingqiu Mountain and the thieves of Jiulu Mountain have been reorganized. ”

Li Yi arched his hand and said: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord." With this force, the lord can open up the situation in Guanyang County. The power of the lord is really unpredictable. ”

For Liu Xuan, Li Yi was completely convinced.

broke into Jiulu Mountain alone and killed Ye Lie; Then on his own, he subdued Zhou Cang.

This kind of method is shocking.

Liu Xuan waved his hand and said: "The weapons and food of Jiulu Mountain and Qingqiu Mountain must be placed as soon as possible. Food, money, and finances must be taken care of, and there can be no gaps. ”

Li Yi hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the lord is definitely good at taking care of it." ”

"Go ahead!"

Liu Xuan commanded, and Li Yi bowed and retreated.

After Li Yi left the study, Liu Xuan carefully checked the list handed over.
