Chapter 288: First Strike is Stronger

Yan Qingyu walked leisurely on the street, and there was no emotion on her face.

An Wanqing frowned, "I'm afraid that the prefect of the fourth grade will not have much money in a year, but the son of this prefect is covered in brocade and cotton satin, and the ornaments he wears are either gold or silver, so extravagant, where did the money come from?" ”

Yan Qingyu smiled lightly and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

An Wanqing sighed meaningfully, "Hey, three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver." ”

"The so-called Tiangao Emperor is far away, the more these local officials, the more prone it is to corrupt officials, but the officials who are closer to the capital, it seems that they are high and powerful, but in fact, they are only enough to support their families." Yan Qingyu is not salty or light.

"Your Majesty governs the country strictly, and there is naturally no room for corrupt officials under your nose, even if there are fish caught in the net, you are only accepting bribes behind your back, how dare you be blatant? On the contrary, these petty officials who are far away from the capital are self-righteous and rampant, thinking that they can sit back and relax if they climb the backer of the capital, but they don't know that the heavens are clear, and they often walk by the river, how can they not get their shoes wet. An Wan Qingdao.

"It's not that all local officials are as rampant as Liu Shoumin, for example, when we passed through Lincheng, we saw the prefect of Wang's mansion, and he was a well-known Qing official." Yan Qingyu is not salty or light.

"is the same parent official, why is the gap so big, the son who is also a parent official, Wang Gongzi is a talented and polite person, and this Liu Gongzi is really flattering." An Wanqing frowned.

The corners of Yan Qingyu's mouth hooked up a wicked smile, and she looked at her with a hint of humor, "But I really let you say it right, when you meet this governor, they are considered unlucky." ”

Looking at the bright and bright eyes, An Wanqing only felt that her heart was pounding, and she hurriedly put aside her gaze, and seemed to quip: "If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed it, but Lord Yan, who is more arrogant and domineering than Liu Gongzi on weekdays, has a heart that cares for the people." ”

"Do you compare Bento to him?" Yan Qingyu was dumbfounded and stared at her with wide eyes.

An Wanqing shrugged her shoulders in a daze.

Seeing that she was pretending to be innocent, the corners of Yan Qingyu's mouth twitched, feeling that the whole person was not good.

An Wanqing continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.

Yan Qingyu came back to her senses, hurriedly followed her, and snorted softly: "It turns out that in your eyes, Bendu is like Liu Xi's idiot? ”

An Wanqing laughed for a while, "Naturally not, how can Liu Xi compare to Lord Yan, it can be said that it is beyond the reach of the dust." ”

"Huh!" Yan Qingyu had a crying and laughing expression, "Why didn't Ben Du feel happy at all when he heard you say this?" ”

"The overseer is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, at least he won't rob the people's daughters, much stronger than Liu Xi." An Wanqing said with a serious face.

Yan Qingyu stroked her forehead helplessly, and said with a smile: "You can change the topic." ”

"Does the Governor think that Governor Liu will ask the court to resign?" An Wanqing turned her head to look at him and asked with a serious face.

"What do you think?" Yan Qingyu asked rhetorically.

"An official like him who makes the people complain is better to be dismissed earlier, but how can he easily let go of his power after living a life of a eunuch who has no worries about food and clothing?" An Wan Qingdao.

"But he knows that the Governor is an obstacle on the road to his official fortune, and the only way to get the official fortune smooth is to get rid of the Governor." Yan Qingyu put her hands behind her back and walked as she walked.

An Wanqing nodded, "The Overseer has official business, so it is naturally inconvenient to worry too much about delaying time with him, and the Overseer asked him to resign on his own, which seems to be to give him a chance, but in fact it is just a delaying tactic." ”

"A dog jumps over a wall when he's in a hurry, a rabbit bites when he's in a hurry, and it's not good for Ben to push him into a hurry, isn't it?" The corners of Yan Qingyu's mouth hooked a chuckle, "This is Huacheng, he definitely won't do anything on his own territory, it just so happens that the brothers need to take a good rest tonight to recuperate." ”

"The overseer does have a heart for the people, and is willing to offend the prefect of Huacheng for the sake of the people of Huacheng. However, along the way, I am afraid that we must take strict precautions. Not to mention whether this Liu Governor will take risks, judging from Liu Gongzi's reckless temperament, most of them will not give up. An Wanqing reminded.

"The governor has seen the topographic map, out of Huacheng, then entered the Sanji mountain area, I heard that there are often bandits in that area, the government has led troops to exterminate it, as for whether to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, it is not known." Yan Qingyu said.

"Sanji Mountain?" An Wanqing was stunned for a moment, and raised her eyes to look at Yan Qingyu.

"Surrounded by mountains on three sides, if we encounter an ambush, the terrain is very unfavorable for us." Yan Qingyu said seriously.

"After Sanji Mountain, drive north for a few more days, will you enter the Ningbei area?" An Wanqing asked.

Yan Qingyu nodded.

"In this way, if Liu Shoumin wants to set up an ambush, he will definitely choose Sanji Mountain, which can not only act in the name of bandits, but also take advantage of the favorable terrain of Sanji Mountain." An Wan Qingdao.

Yan Qingyu nodded again, "This governor thinks the same way. ”

"But he never expected that the overseer's escort was not disaster relief food at all, and the real disaster relief food had already secretly arrived in the Ningbei area through the waterway." An Wan Qingdao.

"But what he wants is not relief food, he wants the life of the governor." Yan Qingyu said.

"For the sake of safety, he naturally won't call his own people out, if there are really bandits, they leak our whereabouts, and use bandits to borrow knives to kill people, but what do they want?" An Wanqing looked at Yan Qingyu intently and asked.

Yan Qingyu was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, and nodded slightly.

"The bandits only want those carts of food, and when they get to Sanji Mountain, if something happens, the Overseer can let everyone immediately abandon the wagon, and they don't have to deal with the ambulance, so that they will be caught off guard." An Wan Qingdao.

"That's a good idea, indeed, but how could the Governor give him a chance?" Yan Qingyu looked at her, a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Oh?" An Wanqing was stunned for a moment, "What is the overseer's plan?" ”

"Naturally, it's the first strike." Yan Qingyu chuckled lightly, and said as he walked with his hands behind his back: "They don't dare to make a move in Huacheng, and Bendu is not in a hurry to rush to this time, just stay for one more day to recuperate." ”

"What does the Overseer mean?"

"This place is closer to Jincheng, there is a day of horse travel back and forth, General Ma of Jincheng is His Majesty's old minister, and he is guarding outside all the year round, if this governor sends someone to quickly send a letter to the horse, please ask him to go out to arrest Liu Shoumin for investigation, and then we will set off again, wouldn't we be able to rest assured that we can hurry?" Yan Qingyu is not salty or indifferent.

An Wanqing nodded thoughtfully, "If you want to stay for one more day, Liu Shoumin won't think about it, now that the overseer is in Huacheng, in order to avoid suspicion, it is indeed impossible for him to do it on his own territory." ”

"Let's go, go back to the post station immediately, the governor will write a letter now, and send someone to Jincheng immediately." Yan Qingyu frowned, and her steps couldn't help but speed up.

An Wanqing hurriedly followed, frowning and said: "Liu Shoumin's father and son have indeed caused the local people to complain, but this matter is not under the supervision of the governor, let alone General Ma, will General Ma send someone to arrest and investigate Governor Liu?" ”
