Chapter 705: The Cruel Truth

Meng Yan's body is very good, and he recovers quickly, and the wound has already scabbed, as long as he doesn't move, it won't crack.

Fortunately, the weather is not too hot, and the wound is not easy to inflame.

"Does it hurt?" Every time she changed the dressing, Guo Yue frowned distressedly, but this was an arrow that pierced through the past.

"It's okay, the wounds are all scabbed, and there is no bleeding, in seven or eight days, almost my right arm can move."

"Don't move, change the dressing!"

"Adult ......"

"Come in!"

"My lord, I mentioned to you, Lord Duanmu Ci of Jinyi Wei Datong Thousand Households asked to see him." After Qu Feng came in, he bowed and said without squinting.

"Wait a minute, wait until I'm done changing the medicine." Meng Yan commanded.

"How's it going, is the strength okay?" After changing the medicine and starting to bandage, Guo Yue asked carefully.

"A little tighter." Meng Yan moved slightly.

Guo Yue agreed, used a little more force, tightened the bandage, and saw that Meng Yan did not react, so he tied it for him, and then helped to sort out the clothes.

Meng Yan gave Qu Feng a look, Qu Feng nodded, and walked out.

"Lord Duanmu, my lord, please!"

"Thank you, Master Qu!"

A white-faced middle-aged man in his forties walked in from the outside with elegant steps and saw Meng Yan sitting on the couch.

"Xiaguan Jinyiwei Datong Thousand Households Duanmu Ci see the Qin Messenger Inspector Master Meng!" Duanmu Ci stepped forward and bowed down and clenched his fists.

Seeing Guo Yue, who was holding a medicine bottle and holding scissors, Duanmu Ci showed a slight look of surprise.

"The official was changing the medicine just now, and he neglected Lord Duanmu, please take a seat, this is not an official office, you don't have to be formal!" Meng Yan greeted with a smile.

"Lord Xie Meng!" Duanmu Ci walked over and sat down on a chair.

Wang Heng sent a cup of hot tea.

"Lord Duanmu, please drink tea!"

"Thank you." Duanmu Ci said, "Master Meng is here in Datong this time. With the subordinates, although the command is just the order, the commander has already issued an order to cooperate with the actions of the lord. ”

"Oh, has Lord Duanmu already received the text from the capital?"

"Got it. Commanding the words of the lord, how dare you slack off your duties! ”

"Okay, with the words of Lord Duanmu, this official is available in Datong!" Meng Yan smiled slightly.

"That's what subordinates should do." Duanmu Ci bowed slightly.

"Lord Duanmu, how many people are there in Jinyi Wei Datong Thousand Households?" Meng Yan asked.

"There are 1,217 people on the roster!"

"Actually?"

"If you count the hidden threads planted in the army. Less than eight hundred! Duanmuci replied.

"Oh, empty pay?"

"Yes, but I know this, it's not easy for us at the border, and the little money in the imperial court is basically enough to eat, but we still have to do things, and we can't do anything without money, so we eat a little empty salary." What Duanmu Ci said was justifiable.

All of this is known above, and he is not afraid. Anyway, this empty salary is not something he has in office, basically the previous ones were like this.

He didn't get the money into his pocket, so naturally he didn't have to be afraid.

"Doesn't Jinyiwei give you an additional subsidy every year for thousands of households in Datong, and this official remembers that this amount of money is still a lot, isn't it enough?" Meng Yan asked, it was impossible for him not to do his homework when he came.

"You're talking about the eight hundred taels of silver, it's good if three hundred taels of this money could have been in our hands before!"

"Did someone deduct it?"

"You're in the capital, don't you know?"

"My lord, Ma Shun used to be in charge, and it was common to deduct the subsidies below. This lowly position is also occasionally heard of! Qu Feng said.

"Well, the official knows, from now on, the deduction of subsidies will not happen again. Please rest assured that Duanmu-sama will be able to do so. Meng Yan said.

"Then I will thank Master Meng for my brothers!" Duanmu got up and knelt down for Meng Yan.

"Lord Duanmu, please get up quickly, we won't mention the previous things, we have to see later." Meng Yan said, "If you are here today, the official will also visit the door again." The official is looking for you to borrow someone. ”

"How much does Master Meng want to borrow?"

"Lend me the secret line of the border army in your hand temporarily!" Meng Yan looked at Duanmu Ci calmly.

"Master Meng, I'm afraid this won't work, although you are a Qincha, but you don't have the power to use these people?"

"In addition to the official of the Qincha Datong Inspector, there is another official, I'm afraid you don't know yet, this official is now in charge of Nanya!" Meng Yan smiled slightly.

"Lord Duanmu, Lord Meng is in charge of Nanya, and he is now the supreme officer of the Public Opinion Department." Qu Feng Dao.

"Lord Meng, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, even if you are in charge of the Southern Ya, the people of the Public Opinion Department are under the orders of the judge!" Duanmu gave the way.

"Show Duanmu-sama the judge's warrant!" Meng Yan ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Qu Feng took out a warrant signed by Judge Sai Xiaoyu and handed it over, "Lord Duanmu, take a look at it yourself." ”

Duanmu Ci looked at the warrant, the handwriting and seal were genuine, there was no doubt.

"This official left Beijing to handle the case, and the judge Sai treated me as the head of Nanya, do you want to confirm the authenticity of the warrant?"

"No, no need, since the judge has issued a warrant, his subordinates should obey it!" Duanmu Ci said busily.

"Lord Duanmu, this time it's just a secondment, and when the people run out, the official will return it to you, you can rest assured." Meng Yan said, "Also, this official won't borrow from you for nothing, Qu Feng!" ”

Qu Feng comprehended, took an envelope and handed it to Duanmu Ci.

"A little bit of the official's heart, the brothers have worked hard at the border, this time the official is here, and by the way, I will offer condolences and treat the big guy." Meng Yan said slowly.

Duanmu Ci opened the envelope slightly, and what he saw was a stack of silver tickets, all of which were worth one hundred taels, and counted them, no less than ten!

I sighed in my heart, this surnamed Meng is really rich, not only married the daughter of the commander, but also spent a lot of money, and it was a thousand taels of silver at once, and it seemed that he was worth a lot of money.

"My subordinates thank Master Meng." Duanmu Ci accepted the envelope and said.

"Qu Feng!"

"Lord Duanmu, please come here!" Qu Feng stepped forward and led the way.

Duanmu Ci knew that if he didn't hand over the list today, he would be in trouble and took the money. You have to get things done.

This surnamed Meng has some means, he has given face, and he has given money, if he doesn't know how to lift it. That's the enemy!

Duanmu Ci was secretly frightened, I'm afraid some people really can't play him!

This is a dragon crossing the river, no wonder people can marry the daughter of the commander, this skill and ability are really not possessed by ordinary people.

"Brother Qu, are you free at night?"

"Brother Duanmu. I advise you not to pay attention, the judge treats us like a nephew, and he responds to his request. Qu Feng reminded in a low voice.

"Huh?" Duanmu Ci was surprised.

"Can't you see who the position of the commander of this brocade guard will be in the future?"

Duanmu Ci was shocked.

"Okay, this time the case is handled beautifully, even if we adults are not promoted, at least no one can shake the current position, if you are on the wrong team, what will be the consequences. It's not so easy to lose your official position and resign. Qu Feng said with a smile.

"Brother Qu, what should I do, brother?"

"If you listen to your brother, you have to do it to the letter, of course, you can also not choose a side, do not stand in line, this is the safest, but your career will come to an end!"

"Brother, I'm only forty years old. This ......"

"If you want it, the opportunity is for those who are prepared." Qu Feng smiled and said, "Just give me the list, and I'll contact you." ”

"Oh. Good ......"

"Did you get the list?"

"Got it, but it should be more than that, he doesn't quite want to be on our side yet?" Qu Feng took the list, looked at it and frowned.

"Questions?"

"These people should almost have been exposed, but everyone knows it. And if you move these people, you won't be better! ”

"Well, if I change it, I won't move, isn't it obvious that he has different intentions in the court, everyone knows it!" Meng Yan nodded, this is very understandable, unless which guy is a mallet, otherwise his career in this life will be over, and if he doesn't make it, he will even lose his life.

"And the people up there?"

"According to the normal procedure, get in touch, and if these people can't provide important information in time, it's still okay to ventilate the news."

"What do you mean, these people can fight for it?"

"That's pretty much what it means, by the way, is there any news of the anti-fraud officials who used the prison military office?"

"It seems to have disappeared in the past few days, I wonder if this guy is playing with Dongchang?" Qu Feng said with a smile.

"Got it, go ahead!" Meng Yan nodded.

"Husband, Princess Hui'er wants to see you."

"See me?" Meng Yan was confused, at this time, how could she take the initiative to see herself? "Okay, I'll go over it."

"Hui'er, listen to Xiaoyue, do you want to see me?"

"Lord Meng, please hand over Uncle Borshu's ashes to me, and I will take them back to Uncle Borshu's hometown for burial."

"You want to go back?" Meng Yan was a little surprised, and called Princess Minghui "Lord Meng" for her sudden indifference, feeling a tearing pain in his chest, as if he had lost something beloved.

"Yes, there's no point in me staying here, it's better to take Uncle Borshu home, set up a tent at the foot of the snowy mountain, and keep a wake for Uncle Borshu!" Princess Minghui said stubbornly.

"Do you know that your brother took off and didn't spend money to marry you to the first master?"

"I know." Princess Minghui was very calm, as if the matter she said had nothing to do with her.

"Do you know that the people who first came were in Datong City, and they also knew that you had fled to Daming, and as long as you got out of here, they would immediately arrest you?"

"......" A hint of horror flashed in Princess Minghui's eyes, and it was obvious that she didn't know this yet.

"Hui'er, you want to go back to the grassland with the ashes of Borshu, and Brother Shi won't stop you, but not now, understand?" Meng Yan said, "I've already lost my teacher, I don't want to lose you anymore, understand?" ”

"But, you killed Uncle Borshu!" Princess Minghui said with tears in her eyes, "Why are you doing this, Uncle Borshu is so good to you?" ”

"My matter with the teacher is more complicated, I can't explain it to you clearly for a while, the last arrow, I didn't expect the teacher to dodge, with his ability, my arrow can hurt him at most......" Meng Yan blamed himself.

"Sister Hui'er, your Uncle Borshu was actually ordered by your brother to kill my husband, if he doesn't die, my husband will die!" Guo Yue really couldn't listen to it anymore, so she simply stood up and told the truth. (To be continued.) )xh118R1052
