Chapter 42 The Governor's Journey

"What's in your hand?"

Just when Yue Su stood in place, not knowing what to do for a long time, Ruan Aoyue came to his side and saw the golden arrow in Yue Su's hand at a glance.

"This ......" Yue Su felt quite embarrassed, and didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"Show me." Ruan Aoyue was really unkind, snatched the golden arrow from Yue Su's hand, and took a closer look, "Wow! Or is it golden? Where did you get that? ”

"Yes......"

"How do you swallow and spit out, don't say it if you don't want to say it, look at your embarrassment, your face is red." Ruan Aoyue tilted her face and returned the arrow to Yue Su.

Although the two of them have no feelings, Ruan Aoyue is his wife after all, Yue Su feels that it is better to tell her about this kind of thing, or she can still give herself an idea. I really don't have anyone to talk to now. Yue Su has never been confused in other things, but in his feelings, he is always a little unenlightened.

But also, in his last life, he and Li Lan were childhood sweethearts, and the two grew up together with the master, and naturally came together, never fell in love again, and always seemed to understand emotional things. Yue Su is just a responsible man, he is single-minded, and his thoughts about Li Lan have not changed even if he was reborn in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Ruan Aoyue didn't share a bed with him, and he didn't care.

Yue Su hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll tell you." This arrow was given to me by Liuzhai Tusi just now. ”

"He gave it to you? Is it so good, saved us, and put an arrow made of pure gold upside down? Ruan Aoyue felt a little incredible. But she knew that Yue Su would not lie.

Yue Su nodded, and said: "He was the ...... handed over to me for Fang Cai'er, the toast of Fangzhai" At that moment, he relayed Liutai's words to Ruan Aoyue.

Ruan Aoyue listened to it and said with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations, our Lord Yue is really a blessing." For some reason, she suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart. This feeling has never been felt before, but it has occurred twice this morning. Once I saw Du Shi Niang in the city, and once now.

"You're making fun of me." Yue Su said very bluntly. Then, he smiled bitterly again and sighed: "I didn't intend to leave this arrow, but Liu Tusi said that sending the arrow back means marrying Fang Cai'er, and she will be ready to marry at home." I'm just worried about what would happen if I sent the arrow back, and this girl really thought I was going to marry her and get ready at home. When she lived in the yamen for a while, I still knew a little about her, and she was very persistent. ”

"I see." Hearing Yue Su's explanation, Ruan Aoyue's mood was much better, she smiled, snatched the arrow back again, and said, "Then I'll help you keep it, let people steal it, and return it to that girl, so that she will suffer from lovesickness." ”

"You......" Yue Su smiled helplessly.

At this time, Feng Debao ran over, bowed to Yue Su, and said, "My lord, the battlefield has been cleaned up, what should the prisoners do?" ”

When he charged and killed the enemy, Feng Debao did not go out of the city, and it was not until the end of the battle and the battlefield was cleaned that this guy rushed out. Don't look at him as a piece of material in war, he still has some experience in cleaning the battlefield, and under his command, the people cleaned up the battlefield in an orderly manner.

Yue Su pondered for a moment and said, "Find a few large courtyards in the city, put the prisoners in them separately, and transfer some more people to guard them." Find out their leaders and bring them to the government, and I will question them myself. ”

"Yes!"

*************************************************

The leader of the rebels, Mu Chatai, had already died in front of the battle, and there were two surviving leaders, Yue Su tortured them to extract confessions, and asked them why they were attacking other places, but they had to attack Tongren, which was the farthest away from Guiyang. The two didn't know why, they only said that they were acting on orders, and Yue Su saw that he couldn't ask anything valuable, so he sent the two back to the place where they were held.

In the evening, Yue Su summoned Yin Zhu, Tong Xuan, Tie Qiu and Feng Debao, and asked the four of them to lead people to burn down the house where the prisoners were held tonight, and not a single person was left inside.

For Yue Su's order, Feng Debao and Tong Xuan were not surprised, Yin Zhu and Tie Qian were shocked, their eyes were wide open, and they looked at Yue Su in confusion, I don't know why the adults would give such a cruel order. No matter how you say it, the other side has already surrendered.

Yue Su understood what they meant, and said: "Yin Zhu, Tie Qiu, you two came back with me, on the way, the rebels burned, killed and looted, ** excessively, even the old people and children did not let go, how many people died in their hands, don't you see?" ”

As soon as they heard this, Yin Zhu and Tie Qiu both hung their heads silently, unable to say a word. Yes, the traitors killed so many people, did you say that you can pay off this blood debt by surrendering? The blood debt will be paid with blood.

Yue Su looked at them bowing his head and was silent, and then explained: "It's really not okay not to kill them." Not to mention avenging the dead people, even if we stay, we can't settle them. With so many people, how much food do we have to eat, we don't have enough food in the city, how can there be surplus food for them. Let them go, let it go, it is even worse, once they go back, they must not continue to abuse. The ancients: Killing and surrendering is ominous. I'm forced to do this too. ”

These words made everyone present nod, one can't be closed, the other can't be released, only killing. Not only can they avenge the dead people, but they can also deter other rebels and let them know that Tongren Mansion is not what they want to come to, and there is a price to pay for killing people here. This price is your life!

***************************************************

That night, there were many fires in Tongren Mansion, and the places where the fires started were all for the traitor prisoners. The fire reflected the entire Tongren City, and the sound of wails and pleadings in the city was endless. This wail may be familiar to those who have been burned to death before they die, because those who have been killed by them have pleaded with them and wailed in such pain before they died.

Finally quiet, Yue Su lay on the sofa bed and slept beautifully. I slept until the next day. And it wasn't a natural awakening, he was greeted by Ruan Aoyue, because the golden cicada was back.

Yue Su really didn't expect that Jin Cicada would come back so quickly, he immediately got dressed, wiped his face simply, and went to the flower hall to meet Jin Cicada.

"Have you seen Governor Wang? What did he say? When are you going to send troops? ”

As soon as he entered the flower hall, Yue Su didn't wait for the golden cicada to say goodbye, and even asked questions. He came out of Guiyang, and the time was not short, and the 10,000 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people there always worried him.

Jin Chan bowed down and replied, "My subordinates didn't see Governor Wang, and soon after handing the letter in from outside the line, they were brought into a side tent to rest. I said many times that I wanted to see Lord Wang, but the guards said that Lord Wang was busy with official business and had no time to see me. As soon as I pondered, I might have really responded to what the Lord said before, Lord Wang was afraid of the enemy's strength and did not dare to reinforce him. I want to catch my head, the official is low, the king doesn't see me, and I have no way, so I have no choice but to say goodbye and come back as soon as possible to tell the lord. ”

Yue Su nodded and said, "It seems that I really have to go on a trip in person, Wang Sanshan can not see you, the head catcher, I don't believe that he doesn't even see me, the prefect." ”

Leaving Jin Chan to rest in the house for a while, the next day was dawn, Yue Su led Jin Chan, Yin Zhu, Li Haoran, and Li Haoquan to Huaihua Governor Xingyuan. The reason why he didn't bring Tie Qi was also because there were too many things in Tongren Mansion now, and he was afraid that Tong Zhou would not be able to do it alone.

All the way to the whip, a few days later, the five people came to Huaihua Mansion. The governor was located outside the city, and the military camps were closely connected, but I don't know how many soldiers and horses were stationed.

Yue Su found a place where no one was, changed into the official uniform he brought, and then led Jin Chan and others to urge the horse to come to the front of the line, the gatekeeper stopped Yue Su, saw Yue Su wearing a five-grade official uniform, bowed down and said: "I don't know where this adult came from, what are you doing here?" ”

"This mansion is Yue Su, the prefect of Tongren, Guizhou, and on the order of the acting governor Li, I came here to ask to see Governor Wang, and I have important matters to discuss." Yue Su said loudly on his horse.

"Then please wait, sir." With that, the soldier turned and ran briskly.

After a long while, the soldier ran out and said, "Lord Yue, please come with me." ”

Yue Su nodded slightly, jumped off his horse, and followed the soldiers into the line. After walking a short distance, the soldiers led Yue Su to a relatively large tent and invited Yue Su in. Yue Su stepped in and saw that there were beds, tables and chairs inside, and the simple facilities were complete.

However, he didn't bother to pay attention to this, and asked, "Is the governor going to see this official here?" ”

"Back to Lord Yue, Governor Wang said, Lord Yue has been tired from a long journey, he should take a rest first, and now he has asked people to arrange wine and dinner, and he will send it to his lord later. The governor has some official business to do now, and he will meet with the adults later. The soldier replied respectfully.

Seeing that the other party was polite and not rude at all, Yue Su nodded and signaled that the soldiers could retreat. As soon as the soldiers went out, the golden cicada on the side said: "The last time I came, they were so polite, but no matter what I said, they just didn't let me see Governor Wang." ”

"Now that I've just come to the door, the other party has dealt with it decently, and the etiquette is thorough, and it's not good for me to break in directly. Seeing that it was noon, we didn't eat, so let's have lunch at this place first. When I'm full, I'll see them again and see how they respond. ”

The noon meal was timely, with eight dishes on a table, fish and meat, and two jars of wine. Yue Su asked the soldiers to remove the wine, only to eat with Jin Chan and the others, and after eating, after a short rest, Yue Su walked out of the tent.

As soon as he came out, a soldier immediately greeted him, "Lord Yue, where do you want to go?" ”

Yue Su said with a smile: "I just want to ask, when will Lord Wang's official business be completed, and the official business that this official wants to discuss with him is not a trivial matter." ”

"My lord, I don't know when the governor's official duties will be completed, but when I am done, I will definitely meet the adults as soon as I am done." The soldier said with a smile on his face.

"Then you have to go to the king again, and say that the military situation is urgent, and the lower official is really anxious." Yue Su said politely.

"Good, good...... I'll go and pass it on, Lord Yue, please rest inside. With a courteous face, the soldier invited Yue Su back to the camp, and then turned to leave, and I don't know if he went to talk to Wang Sanshan.

Yue Su continued to wait, but his patience was limited after all, and when it was dusk, and the soldier did not come back to convey the news, he could not sit still and walked out of the camp again.

Just like last time, as soon as the front foot came out, another soldier came up, "Lord Yue, I don't know where you want to go?" "This soldier is not the same person as the one before him. For the time being, it's called Soldier B.

Yue Su said angrily: "Just now, that guy went to Tongyu Lord Wang on my behalf, why hasn't he come back yet." ”

"It may be that the governor sent him to do something else, and if the lord has something, just tell the villain." Soldier B is also accompanied by a smiling face.

"I'm going to the governor's tent." Yue Su said directly.

"This ......" Xiao Bing Yi hesitated for a moment, and said in embarrassment: "The governor is now handling official business, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient." When you're done, you'll ......."

didn't wait for him to finish speaking, but he heard Yue Su snort and said angrily: "Nonsense! Lord Wang is the governor of Guizhou, although this place is called the 'gateway to Guizhou and Yunnan', but it is in Guangxi, what official business does he have to do here? It must be that you are deceiving the upper and lower levels, and deceiving the government! Acquaintances immediately lead the way, otherwise this mansion will make you look good! ”
