This night, General Qiu didn't sleep well, his groggy mind was full of Lu Yixin and Su Yi's porridge's small eyes, when the sky was gray, he heard a lot of movement outside the camp, followed by the sound of horses' hooves gently going away, he pondered and hurriedly got up and washed up and greeted two soldiers to inquire, only to know that Lu Yixuan left the camp early in the morning.

Single-handedly.

"General Su, you are commenting, how dare such lax military discipline and military discipline take on a big position!" General Qiu felt that he was simply the nurse of these 8,000 people, and there was no one to worry about from top to bottom.

Su Yicongee squinted and still took a nap: "General Qiu, don't worry." ”

Not in a hurry?

Their army has been stationed in a remote corner for almost a month, and the generals at this point have been properly placed, and the excerpts urged by the court asked about the situation of the bandits, and the summons came from the government every three or five times, and General Qiu Shen scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks and didn't know how to reply, if it was said truthfully, I am afraid that the Son of Heaven would be angry, and they should be punished for the crime of dereliction of duty of passively avoiding war!

"What did she do when she went down the mountain without permission?" General Qiu Shen held the sword at his waist, and his armor sounded loudly as he walked.

"I don't know, master." Su Yi shrugged his shoulders, he was still sleeping in the camp Xiang Tian This Qiu Shen General dragged people up, oh, that girl was originally an eyesore when she was dangling in front of everyone, and your surname Qiu never took her seriously.

"You are the commander, she is the lieutenant!" I don't know, General Qiu sometimes feels that the 8,000 people under his command are more difficult to deal with than those bandits, especially the three of them in power, their faces and hearts are not in harmony, so they have never reached a point," Zhang Jianzhi, "He shouted angrily, and when the curtain was lifted outside, a small deputy envoy ran in, and it was he who brought the entourage from Shengjing City, "Go, take a few people down the mountain to recruit Deputy General Lu back." ”

Su Yi sneered and liked to see General Qiu Shen anxious, as if he offended the court and got his mind, this person's arrogance added to the sense of cynicism, both wanting to make a difference and looking down on dignitaries, if he was about to leave, he looked at him coldly.

As for Lu Yixing, he likes to be unexpected more than Qiu Shen in the future, and he asked Su Yi to make porridge in the private camp, which is full of fun.

General Su Xiao began to wait for a long time, what kind of strange and dangerous tricks his lieutenant General Lu had.

The land is the domain of the Marquis of Xichuan in Shunning, the folk customs look simple but do not see the sense of wealth, indeed, the original six compromises are full of bitterness, and the household department has not moved to allocate money to save the people's livelihood.

Lu Yixuan has been on this road for three or five days, she has seen Caoyun, been to the wharf, Xiaoda River Work, and in the autumn, she went straight to the Yamen of Shunning Mansion.

Glorious plaques hang high, and red-lacquered doors are open for send-off.

It's just that before she stepped in, the two officials who rushed out of the door blocked her.

"Where is the little girl, this is the lobby of the mansion, not a place to hang out."

"I want to meet the prefect Zhang Jingzhang." Lu Yixuan led the horse and bowed.

The officials glanced at each other and waved their hands to drive people away: "The prefect is what you, a little common man, say you will see?" The adults are greeting guests, so hurry up. "They are very impatient, the news is strange recently, the court has sent people to suppress the bandits, the army has been in the corner for almost a month but there has been no movement, except for hearing that General Qiu has come to the two mansions to order troops, there is no news coming, and as a result, the people in the government are panicking.

It feels too subtle.

It seems that the imperial court is not here to kill the thieves, but to deliberately come and see what the officials in the two provinces of Mo He Shunning are doing, so the big and small officials can't sit still, and they have broken their legs after running up and down for a month, and the strangest thing is that the rumored little general who suppressed bandits has never stepped into the two provincial governments.

It's weird, it's weird, it's hard to guess.

"Go, go, don't delay you."

Lu Yixuan's shoulder asked the little servant to push, she didn't move, but grabbed the man's wrist and twisted it, the servant probably didn't expect this inconspicuous-looking girl to resist, the strength was not small, the soles of her feet slipped, and "poof" was caught off guard and fell into the dog eating.

"Where did you come from?" The official couldn't hold back his face and shouted angrily.

Lu Yixuan let go of the reins of the horse and ignored him, and had already pulled out the drum hammer under the drum of Wendeng at the entrance of the yamen and knocked it "dong dong", the sound was loud, as if it had been transmitted to the mountains in the distance and echoed layer by layer.

"Okay, then I'll beat the drum and cry out." She shook it hard, "bang", slammed the drum hammer on the ground and walked across the door.

The people outside looked at each other, and the errand in the yamen naturally heard the movement, and before they could stop the people in the atrium, the little girl had already stepped into the main hall.

There is warm tea in the hall.

There are indeed two people, the official uniform and official hat is sitting in the prefect Zhang Jing, and there is also a person sitting on the master's seat, brocade clothes, half bearded, about fifty years old, but strong and strong without old age, they are not in a hurry or move the girl who suddenly broke into the hall.

"Who is in the hall," Zhang Jing has seen the stormy scene in the past few years as an official, this girl is not a poor girl at first glance, she is bold and colorful, her eyebrows are clear, and the bright light behind her is lined with her faint sparseness Wen Ning moved her hands cleanly, "You can know that in the palace, if you don't give local small cases, you will go back wherever you come, this official, no crime." ”

Mr. Zhang's words are very wonderful, the girl in front of him is here to "make trouble", at this juncture, more things are better than less things, he has a target, intended to advise, less trouble.

The prefect's eyes are like torches.

Moreover, this is not wrong, you are a common man who needs to come according to the region and official level, and there is a county order yamen in your own place, and anyone will run to the door of the prefect to shout * injustice as soon as he comes.

Lu Yixuan patted the hem of her skirt, the dust was sprinkled, she didn't kneel, but her eyelashes blinked for a moment and she looked around the entire hall: "The small people are not wronged, but there is a fear that the officials below dare not accept it, so I want to ask the prefect." She gave it up.

Zhang Jing and the man in brocade clothes glanced at each other and did not stop them.

Lu Yixuan scratched his ears and raised his eyebrows: "Xiaomin came all the way north, and I heard that all the government officials have issued laws to increase the horse tax and silver in villages and towns, but if they can't pay it, they will confiscate the horses, and Luohe Racecourse sent two hundred military horses to the warehouse camp half a year ago, but is there such a thing?" Although she asked, she didn't wait for anyone to answer, "Farming, fishing, mulberry, harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the imperial court already have a regional average price, but when it comes to the remote corner, the rules are broken, the grain in Shengjing City is seven cents and one quintal, and the southern production area is four cents and two cents and one quintal, as for the two provinces, it is necessary to pay nine cents and one burden, and the imperial court allocates grain funds every year for emergency relief, but the grain that has been opened is still so sky-high, where does the silver go?" Military, civilian, and commercial all kicked the imperial court out of bounds, and I would like to ask whether Mo He and Shunning are the imperial land under the rule of the Ninth Five-Year Emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, or the world owned by the Marquis of Xichuan and the feudal officials. ”

"How could I not have expected that the high-ranking officials would give the hands of the common people to the rats and bandits, and for many years they have lied and refused to report and displaced thousands of people in the border cities of the two provinces, Lord Zhang Jing, as the prefect of Shunning, don't you feel that your face is disgraced and your family is ashamed."

Lu Yixuan's words were fluttering, without any intention to ask about the crime, as if he was chatting with two old people about what he had seen and heard for many days, and the people's livelihood and people's feelings that he had seen all the way single-handedly, which is the so-called peace in the imperial court excerpts, not to mention that the thieves are oppressing the people, and the prefect who is in charge of the day is not helping to abuse him, heh, and one more Xichuan Marquis regards this place as his own place of profit.

"You ......" Zhang Jing was stunned for a long time, "You are simply talking nonsense, where do you dare to bring hearsay anecdotes to the hall of Shunning Mansion to make a noise!" He took the case, "The Marquis of Xichuan is a person who has made outstanding contributions to the two provinces and the first emperor, and has made outstanding contributions to the people. ”

"Ha, is it a merit in exchange for 800 heads," Lu Yixuan leaned over and smiled, his sleeves flew, and he stared at Governor Zhang's mansion without being frightened, "Okay, let me ask Lord Zhang, when the military report said that only 300 thieves fled from Baisha Canal to Yushi Gorge, why did he get 800 heads?!" ”

Zhang Jing opened his mouth, his heart jumped, and he suddenly panicked, he didn't even know whether the girl was bluffing or had real evidence, but the light in her eyes could not be doubted, the prefect was suddenly, he panicked and couldn't help but follow Lu Yiyun's words to explain the round.

"Xu yes...... Xu is army is in chaos, and the army is wrong, Xu is ...... The thieves in the mountains fled from another village. "Who could have predicted these things?

"During the Chengzu period, the law of Dayan was determined, and those who killed 500 enemies on the battlefield could repay a merit, when, even the thieves became the stepping stones of those who climbed power when the family and country were in danger! A few years ago, there were officials in the Tang newspaper who clearly said that they were in cahoots with the people of the prefect's yamen, enclosing land for trouble, and privately conscripting military horses to suppress the riots. ”

seized the land of the common people as his own, and built mansions on it to enjoy the glory and wealth all day long.

"I can't figure out why the two provincial governments are forced to turn a blind eye to obscenity and prestige, and lose the country and the people! Master Zhang, were you kept in the dark or did you know it but didn't report it? ”

Zhang Jing's hand shook, "click", and the white porcelain tea cup cover on the side fell to the ground, "clang" like a broken jade, he didn't know for a moment whether to loudly scold the girl in the hall for talking nonsense or pretend to be deaf and dumb as if he didn't understand the question, but his eyes were slightly biased towards the silent man on the master's seat over there.

The man didn't shake his hands, but took a sip of the teacup.

"Little girl, do you know who the old man is?" His voice was thick and undaunting.
