Yan Hong saw Yang Shun desperately begging for mercy, but he was expressionless, only silent for a moment, and stretched out his hand to help: "Uncle Yang, get up." How can we say that they are also uncles and nephews. You are committing a great sin, as long as you are not rebelling and usurping, and committing the great taboo of the heavenly family, then I naturally can't watch your head fall to the ground. It is to teach you to cut your job for the people, but in fact, it is also inappropriate. You are a member of my strict sect, if you are unlucky casually, where will my grandfather's face go? ”

When Yang Shun heard this, he said urgently: "Yes, yes, Qincha is magnanimous, and the lower officials are grateful." The lower officials did misdeeds, and they were ashamed to death with the name of the old Yan Ge. The lower officials are all subject to the arrangements of the Qin Cha, and I will do what you say. ”

Yan Hong said: "Okay, Uncle Yang, I don't have any other requirements, as long as you tell me the truth, don't play dumb riddles anymore." You just said, was it your own idea to delay the march this time, or did someone give you the idea? Because Yan Hong knew that Yang Shun's refusal to send rescue troops for a long time certainly had his own calculations in it, but the Mongols could also get this news, which means that most of the masterminds of this matter were the White Lotus cultists around Yang Shun.

Yang Shun hurriedly said: "It was the idea given by my master Yan Ru. If it weren't for his rhetoric, Xia Guan Tiandazi would not dare to delay the military plane. "Joke, at this time, it is natural that you will come with the black pot and send you to death, is it possible that Yang Junmen still wants to excuse one of your staff members and take the blame on his own head?

Yan Hong nodded and said, "That's right." To tell the truth, Uncle Yang and his little nephew attacked the Tartar military camp this time and captured two White Lotus bandits, and their confessions said that there were hidden lines in the Xuanda Yamen. Look at this confession. "Say it. The confession of He Xiaohui, the deputy incense master of the White Lotus Sect, was taken out of the drawer. Hand it to Yang Shun to see.

Yang Shun didn't dare to get up, knelt on the ground and looked down, and after a closer look, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his legs kept flashing. After reading it, he raised his head and begged: "Yan Qincha, it's all my confusion, and most of that Yan Ru is the White Lotus Sect bandits." When I turned around, I slashed him with a thousand knives. Please also ask Yan Qin to spare my life. "This collusion with the White Lotus Sect has always been a big trouble for the official family, but now his own henchman is actually a White Lotus Sectist, and under the control of this person, he has done a lot of things, and he can't get out. This time, it really made Yang Dajun's soul scattered, and he felt like a catastrophe was coming.

Yan Hong said: "Uncle, please get up, please get up." I did. As long as you are willing to be honest with me, we can discuss everything. This White Lotus Sect bandit Yan Ru is really hateful. Fortunately, all his conspiracies have not yet succeeded. Tell me again, what did he ask you to do this time? ”

Where did Yang Shun dare to hide it at this time, and called Yan Ru to come, how to get confidential documents in the name of the governor, how to hunt and kill Ma Fang and Ma Lu, and then put the responsibility for Qin Cha's death in battle on these two people, and also falsely accused them of communicating with the White Lotus Sect bandits, etc., all of which were told one by one. Yan Hong was also shocked and angry when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that this White Lotus Sect's strategy was so vicious, and it was going to destroy the pillars of the side court in one fell swoop. If you really want to act according to this guy's strategy, then the entire Xuanda Heavy Land will almost become a bamboo fence, and the Mongols will ravage it. But he remained silent, and when Yang Shun finished speaking, he sighed: "Uncle, you are also a smart life, and you are confused for a while. Do you really dare to kill Ma Fang, Ma Lu, including the little nephew, and this time a Qin Cha and two deputy commanders died, such a big thing, could it be that the imperial court just ignored it? Rarely, an important person will be sent to inquire about the matter. And my grandfather Yan Ge Lao, my father-in-law Lu Dadudu, how can he give up on this? When the time comes, your position as the governor of Xuanda will definitely not be able to sit securely. Once you change people, can you still cover the sky and cover people's eyes and ears in Xuanda? You ask yourself, how many of the local officials and generals of Xuanda are willing to live and die with you and hide the truth for you? When the time comes, all these things you have done will be found out, but it will be much heavier than embezzling some military salaries and rations, or killing Shen Lian, I am afraid that you will have to cut off all over the house. ”

Yang Shun also suddenly realized, and scolded Yan Ru for being despicable, and scolded himself for being confused and confused, not a thing, and then begged Yan Hong for mercy. Yan Hong said: "Fortunately, the little nephew has a big life this time, although he was assassinated, he never died." The White Lotus Sect bandit Yan Ru naturally couldn't spare him. It's just that this person is your uncle's staff, if I find out, the court will say it, I'm afraid that it will not be convenient for you, uncle. In this way, you can write a document to my little nephew here, and say that this person has been found out to be a White Lotus bandit, but I am afraid that there will be some backstage behind it, and I will report it to Qin Cha for further investigation. In this way, the credit for seeing through the conspiracy of the White Lotus Sect will also have your share, and the stain of the former's unknown employment will be washed away, and it will be easy to explain in front of the Heavenly Family. ”

Yang Shun saw that Yan Hongken pulled himself, and he was so happy that he burst into tears, quickly sat up, and took the banknote given by Zhang Qingyan. He was originally a scholar of the national dynasty, and his pen kung fu was naturally not bad, and after a while, he wrote a document, explaining how Yan Ru mixed into his own scenes, what tricks he had, and how he found his clues, and finally bitterly confessed that he did not know how to use people, and had arrested this White Lotus bandit, and asked Qin to deal with it. In addition, under Yan Hong's prompting, it was said that the White Lotus Sect bandits colluded with some lawless people in the standard camp to abuse the army and civilians, and even had something to do with the murder of Shen Lian and the assassination of Qin Cha Yan Hong. In this way, he pushed the bad things he did to the head of the White Lotus Sect, and he almost wanted to write about his embezzled military salary, and the property he purchased was also the property of the White Lotus Sect. After writing, Yang Shun signed his name, took out the governor's seal from his bosom, and stamped it end-to-end.

Yan Hong nodded with satisfaction, handed over the document to Zhang Qingyan to put it away, and said to Yang Shun: "Uncle, the case of the White Lotus Sect bandit Yan Ru, we will reveal it this time." There is another incident, this battle of Marenburg, how to explain your slow advance? Even if you push Yan Ru to provoke a trick, you yourself have fallen for the trick after all. At the moment of this great enemy, how to deal with the crime of delaying the military aircraft in the country, you understand better than my little nephew, right? ”

Yang Shun saw that Yan Hong was chasing this matter again, so he was so frightened that he knelt down for the second time: "Master Qincha, I am very wrong in this matter, and I ask for Qincha's support." This and this, our battle report to the court in the side court has always been done and said one thing. A defeated battle can be said to be a winning battle, and a few thousand dead and wounded can be said to be hundreds. In the battle of Marenburg, we didn't suffer a loss, and it was okay for Qin to send you a golden body, and he also burned the forage of the Tartars. Ask for mercy from Qincha, and be merciful, you only said that I led the army to fight to kill the enemy and break the siege, and it was vague in the past. The lower officials do not seek merit, but they seek no fault, and they hope that the Qin mission will be fulfilled. ”

Yan Hong said: "Uncle, it's not appropriate." You actually didn't fight a battle, and the whole army of Duanduan rested on the Yellow Wolf Slope for a few days, if my recital made up that you fought bravely to kill the enemy, wouldn't that be a crime of deception? This is absolutely unacceptable. Besides, in the bloody battle of Malianbao for several days, Ma Lu and Ma Fang suffered thousands of casualties each, which was my Qincha Guard, with hundreds of casualties among the Fujian soldiers and more than 100 Jinyi Guards. Such a tragic and bloody battle, and uncle, your governor standard battalion, dare to ask how many casualties there were? How can this be concealed from the Ministry of War? ”

Yang Shun said: "Then please also ask Qin Cha to show a clear road." ”

Yan Hong said: "That's it, since your men and horses haven't fought yet, uncle, since the Tartar soldiers haven't retreated far now, can't we just make up for a battle?" Looking back, my little nephew and my uncle raised their accounts together and gave orders, commanded the armies of Marenburg, marched north together, and pursued the Tartars. The Tartars fought bloodily in Malianbao for several days, and thousands of men and horses were killed and wounded, and the forage was burned, so now they have no will to fight, and most of them will run away as soon as they fight. If you can cut off a hundred and ten heads, it is good, even if you can't win the battle, you will suffer more casualties, even if you are tired of killing hundreds of military horses, and you can pick up some broken saddles and bald feather arrows of Tartars, it will be good to show that Uncle you are loyal to the king and fight hard to kill the enemy. In this way, the fact that there is this battle is here, and it is naturally easy to write on my recital, which is nothing more than a few vague strokes of time, and there is no big problem. Of course, uncle, if you feel sorry for the standard camp and can't bear to be killed or injured, then I didn't say anything about it. ”

Yang Shun saw Yan Hong raise like this, and quickly kowtowed a few more times: "Xie Qincha shows the way, everything depends on Qincha's orders." ”

Yan Hong said again: "This is very good, uncle, you have a way out, and my heart is relaxed." Let's go out together later, and ask your standard camp to return to the camp first. Uncle, please live next door to the little nephew, let's talk about it well, turn around and patrol the armies, march at dusk, and sweep the Tartars. ”

Yang Shun knew that Yan Hong was not worried about him, the matter had come to this point, how could he dare to be stubborn, and nodded in agreement. Not long after, Yan Hong and Yang Shun went out hand in hand and climbed to the lookout in Malian Fort. Yang Shun ordered the general of the standard camp to camp in front of him and asked him to camp in the south of the city and listen to his orders. He also called someone to arrest several of Yan Ru's fellow villagers and hand them over to Jinyiwei. Yan Hong instructed Jinyi Wei to torture him strictly, it is good to be able to force his comrades and confessions, even if he can't be asked, it is good to abuse these thieves who are anti-country and traitors, and to give out a mouthful of bird's spirit that has been lost in the bloody battle in Malianbao for many days.

Yan Hong, under the escort of the brocade guards, went out of Malian Fort side by side with Yang Shun and visited the camps of other soldiers and horses who came to help. Yan Daqincha is still in a state of pretending to be sick, although he faltered along the way, but he still beat his spirit, and everywhere he went, he cordially greeted the generals of each battalion, patted this shoulder, pulled that hand, and asked where he was from, how many years he had been a soldier, what martial arts he knew, and whether he could eat enough food...... At this time, all kinds of reinforcements are burying pots and cooking. Yan Hong allocated another 10,000 taels of silver, distributed them according to the head level, and gave some rewards, especially the difference between those who were commanders and those who were small soldiers. It must be known that at that time, the salary of ordinary infantry in the guard was no more than two handfuls of silver a month, and the 10,000 taels of silver were distributed to tens of thousands of soldiers, and each big-headed soldier got about two yuan, which was quite a real income. Therefore, wherever the Qin mission went, the soldiers of the various battalions were thunderous with joy. (To be continued......)
