Chapter 40 Living in Qingzhou
Chapter 40 Guest Living in Qingzhou
"Knock knock~" A crisp knock sounded, and the memory belonging to the original body gradually faded away, Xu Mengmeng reached out and lightly touched his slightly painful forehead, got up and walked towards the door.
"What?" Opening the door, Xu Mengmeng looked at Lixing at the door with inquiring eyes.
"A few days ago, Fuguang took the time to go to Cloud City, and transported back the batch of weapons we had hidden in Cloud City.
"Well, I'll pick up some ...... weapons in a moment?" By the way, how did you forget about the incident in Qingzhou?
Hearing Lixing's words, Xu Mengmeng remembered the matter that he had almost forgotten, and it should have something to do with the Bai family, right? After all, if Liu Jiang really raised a private soldier, the person behind it must also be one of the princes, and he was also a member of the Bai family's army before!
"By the way, Lixing, the evidence that my sister was rumored to have had an affair with Mu Jingyun that day is said to be a jade pendant, can you find a way to know what that jade pendant looks like?" Although she already had a conjecture in her mind, if there was no evidence, it was just a conjecture.
"I don't know why this matter was suppressed by the emperor at the beginning, there shouldn't be many people who want to know the truth, I will arrange someone to investigate it later."
"Well, the point is to figure out what that jade pendant looks like, I have a hunch that that jade pendant may be the key to solving the whole mystery. In addition, in a few days, I plan to write to the emperor and go to Qingzhou in the name of suppressing bandits, and then the mansion and the camp on the outskirts of Beijing will trouble you! ”
"Bandits?" Lixing looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Well, I suspect that the so-called bandits are actually raising private soldiers, so I'm going to check it out!" Xu Mengmeng didn't intend to hide this from the Twelve Horsemen and the others.
"Private soldiers! What did the general find? Lixing's face was no longer as indifferent as before, and his face was full of seriousness.
"At present, it's just speculation, yes or no, I have to wait for a trip to Qingzhou, it's just an ordinary bandit, it's almost the New Year, and it's good to be able to remove this harm for the people!"
Xu Mengmeng was also a little conflicted at this time, hoping that this was just a group of ordinary bandits, and she had thought too much about the matter of private soldiers, and hoped that someone was indeed so bold, so she could track it down with this clue.
On the second day, Xu Mengmeng fulfilled his promise and personally sent the team of Xichu and Nantang to congratulate him out of the city, Ye Ting and Li Che still admired Ning Jun very much in their hearts, Xu Mengmeng actually liked them a lot, if it was in modern times, maybe a few people could become brothers who drank and talked, but now although the Three Kingdoms are temporarily truce, they are the generals of a country with military power in their hands, and it is impossible to do whatever they want!
"Your Majesty, the minister heard that bandits are rampant on the Black Fog Mountain in the section from Qingzhou City to Jiangcheng, and the government has not gained anything from several encirclements and suppressions.
The capital was temporarily calm, and Xu Mengmeng took advantage of the time to go to Qingzhou again.
No matter what the result is, it's good to be able to do something for the people, and only when the military power and popularity have accumulated enough can the case be overturned for Baifu, right?
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Then why did the officials of Qingzhou and Jiangcheng never hand over the fold? Sima Wei didn't doubt the truth of Ning Jun's words, but he was surprised that this bandit was so powerful that even the government couldn't do anything.
"I guess they think those bandits didn't loot them, so it doesn't matter!" Haven't handed over an excerpt? It seems that things may not be so simple!
"Since they are so incompetent, then you can lead your troops to quell the bandits there!" Although Sima Wei doesn't fully trust Ning Jun, there are not many generals he can use at present, Zhu Ping is the younger brother of the concubine, Wang Gang has been sick at home since his son died, and the others are simple-minded martial artists, although Ning Jun is a little unclear, he can only choose to cultivate him!
Zhao Mansion
"Master, I have sent a letter to Liu Jiang as you ordered, I believe he should be able to deal with it after receiving the news!"
Mrs. Zhao didn't expect that Ning Jun would suddenly propose to go to Qingzhou to suppress the bandits this morning, but fortunately, he didn't directly bring people to kill them, so he had time to send someone over there to deliver the news.
"Well, although Liu Jiang is a cautious person, but Ning Jun is not an ordinary person, he should have noticed it, if Liu Jiang shows his feet over there, let Ning Jun break the matter out without hindering it, and you don't have to interfere with the rest, just leave everything to me!" The figure shrouded in a black cloak said lightly.
"Then do you need to send someone to assassinate him?"
"It depends! If he has few men, he will send some to make a show, and if there are many, forget it! "Although there are a lot of people available under my hands, I can't just waste it.
got the will, Xu Mengmeng took a team of 2,000 people on the road on the second day, don't ask her to kill a bandit to bring so many people? In fact, she felt that it was still a little less, and she had a faint intuition that the so-called bandits were actually private soldiers, after all, it was only a little more than a day's trip from the capital to Qingzhou.
Xu Mengmeng originally thought that this trip would definitely not be smooth sailing on the road, but he didn't expect that until they arrived in Qingzhou City, they didn't encounter any assassinations or anything like that, could it be that they really guessed wrong?
"General Ning came from afar, he must have been a little tired, and he has prepared a banquet in the mansion to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the general!" met Liu Jiang and other officials at the gate of the city, Xu Mengmeng was not surprised, after all, to be able to mix in the officialdom, some gossip channels are indispensable.
"Lord Liu is well-informed and considerate, so how can Ning be so good at the kindness of the adult, but these brothers under my command are also very tired after following Ning's way, Lord Liu looks at it and arranges it at will!" Xu Mengmeng looked at Liu Jiang, who was smiling at him, and said with a smile.
Old horseman, since you can pretend like this, then I will let you bleed some blood first, and see if you feel distressed!
"That's nature, that's nature!" Liu Jiang still had a smile on his face, but he scolded Ning Jun half to death in his heart, it's not bad for me to entertain you with a shy face, and I even want to entertain the two thousand soldiers under you, why are you so treacherous?
"Yo~ Lord Liu is a person who knows how to enjoy, look at how exquisitely this garden is cultivated, my general's mansion is simply a broken thatched hut compared to you!" Although others made that smiling person, Xu Mengmeng was not prepared not to reach out to fight, after all, the rabbit was in a hurry and still bitten, she didn't believe that Liu Jiang was in a hurry and didn't show something out.
"Where, Liu's daily business is busy, and these are usually taken care of by insiders!"
"This Mrs. Liu is a clever person!"
The next reception banquet ended in Xu Mengmeng enjoying the food while constantly finding faults, she didn't look for trouble from others, she just stared at Liu Jiang.
Although Liu Jiang was depressed in his heart, he coped with it fairly freely and did not show any horses.
