Chapter 305: Clues
When he heard that Heng Xin would dismiss the lieutenant on the first day of his trip to the Yamen, Wan Bingyu showed a surprised expression on his face: "Husband, are you a little too impulsive to do this, although we have some connections in Liangzhou City, and the local people also trust Fujun, but after all, it was more than a year ago, more than a year has passed, Liangzhou City has changed so much, you rashly take down Chen Lin, what if those defenders disobey you?" ”
Heng Xin said disapprerovingly: "Madame has forgotten my identity other than that of the minister?" ”
Wan Bingyu cast a confused gaze.
She didn't understand, what did this have to do with her identity, after all, the strong dragon did not suppress the head snake, so Chen Lin could sit in the position of the captain, presumably she had some ability, she was just afraid that Heng Xinyuan would suffer under the other party.
"Madame is really not confident in me." Heng Xinyuan fell to the bed disappointed.
As soon as she heard this, she knew that he must have a plan, so she quickly took Heng Xinyuan's hand and asked, "Does the husband already have a plan in his heart?" ”
"Yes, although Chen Lin has some prestige in the defenders of Liangzhou City, but after all, the foundation is unstable, plus he is young, and he has not made any military exploits over the years, presumably there are already people in the army who are not convinced by him as a commander, and I am different from him, I am not only a minister sent by the imperial court to suppress bandits, but also a general who has made contributions on the battlefield, compared with the two, madam, who do you think the soldiers are more husband and wife to?"
Wan Bingyu narrowed his eyes slightly: "It should be you, the general." ”
"If I show up in front of them, with a little means, they will be completely used by me, and will I still be in charge of whether the position of lieutenant is vacant at that time?"
His name is the talisman for mobilizing the army.
No wonder he attacked Chen Lin as soon as he came, he originally wanted to replace him, not to use his official position to coerce and coerce, I have to say that his plan laid the foundation for their next step.
Because of Heng Xinyuan's move, they had a good night's sleep.
But in a manor outside Liangzhou City, people seemed to see the gates of hell opened, and the screams and wails rang all night.
The next morning, Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu were awakened by a knock on the door.
In order not to wake up the person in his arms, Heng Xinyuan subconsciously covered Wan Bingyu's ears and asked coldly, "Who is outside?" ”
Xu Shi's voice came from outside: "General! The bandits are on the move again! ”
As soon as these words came out, the remaining trace of sleepiness in Heng Xinyuan suddenly disappeared, and Wan Bingyu, who originally wanted to sleep in Heng Xinyuan's arms for a while, also woke up from his sleep suddenly. They only dismissed Chen Lin yesterday and investigated him, and early this morning there was news that the mountain bandits were once again attacking ordinary people.
It seems that there are also those mountain bandits in the government.
As soon as Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu packed up, they hurried in the direction of the living room.
The person who came to report the news was a deputy general, and it was estimated that he had received Chen Lin's favor when he was working under Chen Lin before, so he was quite dissatisfied with Heng Xinyuan, and not only did not show respect to this boss, but also showed an indignant expression: "When the subordinates went to the Zhuangzi, everyone in the Zhuangzi was already dead, even the babies who were not yet full moon had not escaped the poison, those mountain bandits were really hateful!" ”
Heng Xinyuan's expression was a little dignified.
He knew that the bandits were rampant, but he didn't expect them to be so rampant.
In the past, when they started, they generally chose caravans to come and go, or they were located in remote mountain villages, but this time they actually started directly on a manor near Liangzhou City, if this matter is spread today, I am afraid that the people of Liangzhou City will have a great discount on the trust of the government.
The lieutenant general didn't take into account Heng Xinyuan's mood at all, and said directly to Heng Xinyuan: "General, in the past, when Captain Chen was here, he would rush to the scene as soon as the mountain bandits committed crimes. ”
The vice president thought that his attitude towards Heng Xinyuan was so bad that the other party would definitely find a way to rectify him, so he kept holding his neck.
Unexpectedly, Hengxin was far from caring about his faux pas, but also nodded thoughtfully: "It should be." ”
Even if he can't save any of the people now, he has to go over and take a look, and maybe he can find some clues in it.
Heng Xinyuan wanted to go to the scene to have a look, and Wan Bingyu naturally wanted to go too.
"I'm with you."
Heng Xinyuan shook his head, and gently pulled her hand away: "The mountain bandits are so arrogant, I don't know if I will face them head-on when I go out this time, Mrs. should stay in Liangzhou City and wait for news." ”
It was because of the danger that Wan Bingyu thought about going with him: "Isn't there an official errand, no matter how arrogant that group of mountain bandits are, they won't do anything to the officers and soldiers, right?" ”
Since she insisted on going, Heng Xinyuan had no choice but to leave Liangzhou City with her and go to the scene.
In the last Zhaojiacun incident, although Wan Bingyu had been to the scene, she had never entered the house, and naturally she had not seen the tragic situation of people.
Most of the corpses had their necks cut open with sharp weapons, and they lay on the ground, covered in red blood.
Just like the deputy general reported earlier, the arrogant mountain bandits did not even let go of the baby who was not yet a full moon, and there was not a single living mouth left in a huge manor.
Wan Bingyu felt more and more distressed.
Heng Xinyuan was standing by her side, she could feel the slightest abnormality in time, and when Wan Bingyu's figure flickered slightly, Heng Xinyuan pulled the person into his arms: "If you don't want to see it, then don't look at it, go out first, and I'll look for you after the survey is over." ”
Wan Bingyu shook his head, with a hint of stubbornness on his face: "No, I want to see them." ”
Only by seeing their tragic situation with her own eyes can she feel their resentment, and only in this way can she strengthen her determination to catch the murderer.
"We must arrest all those mountain bandits, otherwise we will not only be unable to face the people of the imperial court and Liangzhou City, but also those who died tragically."
As soon as he saw the frightened expressions on the faces of the corpses, Wan Bingyu felt a pang of pain.
The main reason why Heng Xinyuan was reluctant to let her come with him was this, he didn't want her to see so many cruel things, but unfortunately she still saw it. He promised her in a gentle voice: "Those mountain bandits will definitely be caught, and the innocent and tragic people will also get an explanation, Madame rest assured." ”
He has never broken his promise since he made it, and Wan Bingyu has a lot of trust in Heng Xinyuan: "Then it's up to you, husband." ”
The servants over there were still examining the corpses, and the corpses were moved to an open space one by one, and when they walked by one by one, they suddenly sighed, and their eyes lit up: "This person is not dead yet!" Doctor, come and save him! ”
