The magistrates outside cannot use such radical means as they did in the capital.

During his reign, he harmed the people of one side, and those who embezzled and accepted bribes had their homes robbed and beheaded, and the proceeds of bribes were returned to the people twice.

The rest only need to make up the proceeds of these years of embezzlement, and the punishment for the crime will be lenient and the capital crime will be exempted......

The decrees are issued, and it will take a month or two for the replacement officials to arrive, and it will take some time for them to get used to it.

Qiao Shi didn't have time to wait so long, so he gave Ning Yang an order, so he took a small team of people to the border.

As for the food and various supplies that have been prepared, they have already been transported a month ago, and I am afraid that they will soon arrive at this moment.

Now that it has entered October, the temperature in the frontier has plummeted, and all kinds of cold materials should have been sent earlier, but they have been delayed again and again by the imperial court.

There was money to go to the south of the Yangtze River, but there was no money to send warm clothes and food to the border soldiers.

There are also various weapons to build, all aspects need silver, but the imperial court does not allocate silver, how can the border soldiers feel good.

……

"Queen Mother, the grain transport team was intercepted in Liuzhou City."

Qiao Shi and his entourage almost didn't sleep for half a month, and they could reach Yuzhou in two days, but they didn't expect that the grain transport team that had set off more than a month earlier was intercepted in Liuzhou.

Qiao Shi's face sank, and the will of the capital was not of much use to these border places.

And because these state cities are close to the border, they have some self-garrisoned troops, although there are only about 1,000 people, it is easy to intercept a grain transportation team.

"How many days have you been intercepted?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, has been intercepted for three days, Yuzhou came to the news, the grain has bottomed out, since seven days ago, it is the army itself to raise grain, the barracks are difficult to implement because of various reasons, so there is not much remaining grain."

Led by General Yang Shen replied respectfully, the admiration in his eyes was not concealed at all.

The team that followed the Queen Mother was a total of twenty people.

Originally, when they were assigned to follow the Queen Mother to the frontier, there was no lack of contempt in their hearts, what can a woman do when she goes to the frontier, and the power given by the emperor to the Queen Mother is no less than that of today's Zhenguo General.

However, General Zhenguo has been stationed in the frontier for more than ten years, and his prestige is comparable to that of the queen mother in the capital, and in the frontier, the soldiers believe in strength rather than some bullshit queen mother, even if it is designated by the emperor.

This person is still the current queen mother, but I am afraid that she will have to be pampered along the way, and she will travel more than go to war.

However, along the way, after encountering dozens of assassinations, General Yang finally understood why the emperor sent the empress dowager to the frontier.

That strength ......

It's horrible.

"Give me the information of all the forces in Liuzhou, in addition, investigate the crimes they have committed in Liuzhou over the years, and I will see the information tomorrow."

Qiao Shi did not continue to move forward after being instructed, but stayed in the suburbs thirty kilometers away from Liuzhou.

Ten people in the team went out to investigate, and three of them were doing reconnaissance before following Qiao Shi, and they were also good at this aspect.

Qiao Shi and the others chose a suitable place to set up a tent.

The tent was made by Qiao Shi according to the modern tent modification, a tent is enough for a person to rest, each with their own, and it is easy to carry.

The next day, the sky will be bright, and the people who went out to investigate will come back one after another, and their faces will be blue one by one.

These people have been in the barracks all year round, and their temperament is relatively straightforward, and the news they have found out this time really makes them angry.

And the matter of escorting grain and grass was already secret, but now that Liuzhou City intercepted it, it was only known to everyone.

The Yuzhou military camp can't send people to fight, isn't this news to the emperor's ears to install a name of rebellion.

After Qiao Shi heard what they said, he didn't have any expression on his face, just asked them to rest and recuperate.

Two hours later, the team set off and went straight to Liuzhou City.

……

"Liu Wusheng! The grain and grass we escorted this time is the most important thing, but you have detained us here because of selfishness, so you are not afraid that the emperor will punish you for the crime of delaying the military situation! ”

The escort officer looked indignant, God knows how much effort it took to gather these grains, grass and materials, and now the border conflict is intensifying, it is the time when all kinds of materials are needed, but when they are approaching, they meet a villain!

"Don't put the seized hat on my head, there are spies among your escorts this time, I just found out the spies, hehe, and the emperor is far away, and the emperor's will can't control my Liuzhou City!"

Liu Wusheng smiled, those reckless men in the frontier were already lucky to be full, and they sent so much refined grain over, isn't there nowhere to use the silver!

Liu Wusheng opened those grain trucks, and there were fine rice grains in them, even those reckless men deserve to eat these things?!

All these people were done, and the grain was exchanged or robbed by bandits, who knows?

When it comes to Liuzhou's territory, it's not him who has the final say.

"My lord, the Queen Mother is here."

Liu Wusheng, who was proud, suddenly heard the report from his subordinates, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Dowager?

After a while, Liu Wusheng wanted to come, and a few days ago there was news that the queen mother came to the border to comfort the soldiers by the emperor's order.

Too late to the border?

And there were only twenty people with him.

It's a unique one.

When he heard the news for the first time, Liu Wusheng only felt that the new emperor must be trying to kill the queen mother by this means, after all, the queen mother was not her biological mother.

Even issued an order to let the Queen Mother listen to the government before, Liu Wusheng felt that this will should be more under the emperor, or something the royal family had to do.

I gave the queen enough before, but now I want her to die, but I can't.

"Since the Queen Mother is here, you can go with me to meet the Queen Mother."

Liu Wusheng was in a very happy mood, and maybe he could get some useful news from the Queen Mother.

He had heard before that the Queen Mother was still the successor, and he was not valued by the Emperor, and even the Emperor was humiliated by this successor in every way.

Something must have happened.

……

When Qiao Shi arrived in Liuzhou City, he directly made his identity clear, and all the officials in Liuzhou City must come to visit.

Sitting on the main seat of the prefect's yamen, Qiao Shi looked at the various officials who came with an expressionless face.

"Who else hasn't come?"

In the entire Liuzhou City, dozens of officials, large and small, have come, but they still haven't arrived.

Liu Wusheng, as the prefect of Liuzhou, couldn't figure out what Qiao Shi wanted to do at the moment, so he could only ask his subordinates to hurry up and urge other officials to come quickly.

The identity of the Queen Mother is here, and they can't be allowed to do anything in a short time.

Another half an hour later, a few more people came one after another.

Qiao Shi coughed lowly, and Yang Shenjiang immediately stood beside Qiao Shi.

"Liuzhou City has discovered that the enemy spies have infiltrated in, and we have come to investigate on the orders of the emperor, and immediately close the city gate and search for the spies!"

"The Queen Mother's ......"

Liu Wusheng's heart suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he stepped forward to persuade him, but saw that General Yang took out a gold medal.

"We came to investigate on the order of the emperor, do you want to resist the decree and disrespect?!"

"Don't dare."

The officials below spoke in unison.

After the city gate was closed, Yang Shenjiang's eyes flashed with a strange light, but he admired the Queen Mother more and more in his heart.

"The mourning family heard that the escort officer and others were detained here?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Wusheng and the others knelt down together.

"The Queen Mother clearly investigated, and Wechen only received the news that there were spies in the escort officer and his party, so I had to make this decision, Wechen was dedicated to the emperor, and there was no second heart, and I asked the Queen Mother to investigate ......"

Listening to Liu Wusheng's words for the emperor's sake, the corners of Qiao Shi's mouth hooked up a smile that seemed to be nothing, but a cold word came out of his mouth.

"Kill!"
