Chapter 98 The prince is reasonable
As soon as he left the post house, he saw more than 20 fast horses galloping towards him, followed by a group of about 50 officers and soldiers.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the post house, the leading general hurriedly reined in his horse, and then everyone followed him and turned over and dismounted.
The leading general walked up the steps in front of the gate of the post house, came to An Chengluo, knelt down on one knee and bowed, and said: "The last general, Yang Can, the general of the Ningzhou General Military Mansion, was ordered to come to protect the eleventh prince. ”
Han Tao's feet were empty, and his heart was full of screams.
That's the difference!
He was an ambassador of Qincha, and he was accompanied by only thirty soldiers and horses from Jingshi to Fengquan Mansion. The eleventh prince had just arrived at Fengquan Mansion to settle down, and the Ningzhou General Military Mansion sent a team of officers and soldiers to protect him.
How did he, the ambassador of the Imperial Mission, get so miserable?
An Chengluo was a little stunned, the Ningzhou General Military Mansion sent troops to protect his safety, he had not heard anyone mention this matter beforehand, and the suddenness of the people made him not know how to react for a while.
I think it was probably because his father thought that he was away from home and his safety was unpredictable, so he temporarily transferred some troops from the Ningzhou General Military Mansion to come.
He nodded slightly, raised his hand to signal Yang Can to get up, and said, "It's hard work for General Yang." ”
Yang Can looked flattered, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "This is the duty of the last general, let alone hard work." ”
An Chengluo smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Yang Can looked at Han Tao on the side, and asked, "This should be Lord Qincha Han, right?" ”
The corners of Han Tao's mouth twitched slightly, this Yang Shen General finally remembered that there was still a Qin cha.
He laughed dryly twice and responded, "It's Han." ”
Yang Can raised a smile on his face and asked again, "Where are Lord Qincha and Lord Wang going to go?" ”
"This official and the prince are planning to go to the riverbank where the accident happened together to investigate." Han Tao said.
"In this way, the general will escort the eleventh prince there." After Yang Can finished speaking, he retreated from the steps at the entrance of the post house with his fists in his fists, and went to command the officers and soldiers he brought.
Han Tao's face darkened faintly.
What does General Yang mean by this?
Escort the eleventh prince to go? Isn't he an escort on this mission?
It's so hateful, so snobbish!
Although he can't compare to the eleventh prince, he is also an ambassador of the three grades of official residence.
Snobbish, this Yang Shen General is really a snob.
Seeing that Han Tao flicked his sleeves and got on the horse that the little official had already prepared, An Chengluo smiled dumbly, and then got into the carriage as well.
The nearest county seat is Lankou County, which is about three hours away from the capital city of Fengquan Prefecture.
Along the way, An Chengluo lifted the curtain of the car window, looked at the scene along the road, and discussed a lot of related cases with Han Tao who was following the carriage.
Han Tao dared to take the case into his hands, not unprepared, he was bent on finding out the case and giving an explanation to the imperial court.
is also with a glimmer of expectation, he has stayed in the position of the right capital imperial history for many years, although the position is not low, but there is no achievement all year round, let alone the imperial court reused.
This time, he also broke the jar, and he couldn't say that he could also use this case to win the emperor's favor in one fell swoop.
Everyone has selfish motives and will seek convenience and power for themselves.
Even if An Chengluo is himself, for his own selfish desires, he can't say that he will be more ruthless than anyone else.
As long as there is no conflict of interest with him, he will turn a blind eye.
At the end of the Shen period, the group finally came to Lankou County.
The county seat is not large, and before the accident, the entire Lankou County had a population of about 6,000 households.
It was just a big flood that destroyed all the villages along the coast, and about 500 families were affected, some of which were slightly less damaged, but they were also affected to some extent.
Xu Peicang, the magistrate of Lankou County, was anxiously waiting at the government office, and someone had already come to inform him that the ambassador and the eleventh prince were already on their way to Lankou County.
The ambassador and the eleventh prince arrived in Fengquan Mansion on the first day, and they couldn't wait to start investigating the case, and the first one to come was his Lankou County.
This made him a little flustered, and a little panicked.
Anxious and at the same time, I can only sigh helplessly, what should come is always coming.
At this time, a servant hurriedly ran in and said, "My lord, Lord Qincha and the eleventh prince went directly to the mouth of the river. ”
Xu Peicang Huo Ran got up from behind the public case and said hurriedly: "Didn't you come to the mansion?" ”
The officer replied, "No." After a pause, he said: "The capital supervisor who is in charge of the embankment fortifications on the river bank has sent someone to wait thirty miles outside the county seat, and he received the news one step ahead of us and has already set off for the mouth of the riverbank. ”
Xu Peicang secretly gritted his teeth: "Yu Dujian, an old traitor, even if he is in front, it is useless, as a capital eunuch, he can't even think of running away from the incidental crimes." ”
"Prepare the car!" Xu Peicang commanded with a pale face.
An Chengluo and his entourage, before they approached the mouth of the riverbank, saw many destroyed villages along the road, leaving only some broken walls.
There were people rummaging through the rubble, trying to dig out items that had not been washed away.
As soon as I saw a group of people coming, there was a Qincha flag marked with the word "Han" hanging in the front of the procession.
Several people put down their work one after another and surrounded them, knelt on the ground, and kept shouting: "Please ask Lord Qincha to be the master for us!" ”
"My son was swept away by the flood, and I have not seen anyone dead or dead until now, so I ask the lord to show mercy and find my son for the woman."
Han Tao frowned slightly, and looked at the woman: "Fengquan Mansion Yin has sent a large number of officers and soldiers to the downstream to salvage the body, if this lady wants to find her son, she should go to Yizhuang in Fucheng to find out if there is your son, and it is useless to cry here." ”
Unexpectedly, the woman's expression suddenly became hideous, she got up from the ground, and immediately ran to Han Tao's horse, grabbed Han Tao's legs, and shouted at the top of her voice: "My son is not dead!" My son must not be dead! Curse me, you dog, you will not die well! ”
Seeing this, the officers and soldiers next to her hurriedly stepped forward and dragged her away.
Han Tao sighed.
This woman was a wretched woman who had lost her beloved son.
This is really bad, and he was cursed inexplicably, which is really head-heading.
He summoned one person and ordered: "Send someone to dismiss all the idle people around you, and don't let those people collide with the eleventh prince." ”
"It's okay, Lord Han." An Cheng fell into the carriage and said: "If you want to investigate the case, you have to get the information you want from these people, who live at this riverbank every day and must be most familiar with this place. ”
"Lord Han might as well gather these people and inquire one by one to see if they can find out what was wrong on the day of the embankment breaking."
"The prince is reasonable, let the officials do it." Han Tao replied with a smile, and then ordered the little official to lead a few people to gather the surrounding people together.
An Chengluo shook his head slightly.
From Jingshi to Fengquan Mansion, and then to Lankou County, what he heard the most from Han Tao's mouth was this sentence "The prince is reasonable".
So, what is he here for?
