readx;? Soon, the county guard also sent someone to come, and the officials and the Gu family's personal soldiers escorted Yang Hao and Sun Hui back to the county office. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because he saw that one of the victims was behaving very strangely, when everyone else was rushing towards Yang Hao, he walked in the opposite direction, slowly retreated from the circle of the victims, silently ran into an alley next to him, and quickly disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qingming immediately affirmed that this group of victims had listened to this person's incitement, which was why they were so angry. I don't know how much this person instilled in the victims of Ji'an County before they came to Jiandong County, which was unfavorable to the imperial court.

Handed over the victims to the county guard to appease, Gu Qingming also rushed back to the county office, came to the hall, and saw that Yang Hao and Sun Hui were there, so he walked in.

"General Gu, what did you mean when you said that these victims had problems?" Yang Hao asked when he saw Gu Qingming coming.

During the period of the first emperor, he was also ordered to control the floods, and the people at that time were the same as now, because the disaster was too serious, the casualties were heavy, and the mood was inevitably depressed, so they also spoke ill of him.

The situation at that time was not much different from now, but why did Gu Qingming say such a sentence?

"Lord Yang, didn't you notice that the emotions of those victims were not excited, but they began to become excited after listening to someone's words?" Gu Qingming said, "At that time, I was standing behind you, looking at those people, but I didn't find anyone talking. ”

"Why is that?" Sun Hui listened to on the sidelines, also puzzled.

"The two adults may not understand that there is a high level in martial arts, which can transmit sound through the air, that is, people don't need to open their mouths, they can only use their inner voice to make people hear their voices. Gu Qingming said, "I suspect that there may be someone with strong martial arts among the victims, and his purpose is to fan the flames and hinder this disaster relief operation." ”

"General Gu, does this matter have anything to do with the assassin we met not long ago?" Sun Hui asked again.

"Not sure yet. Gu Qingming shook his head and said, "On the surface, the assassins of that night have a great relationship with Beidi, and I don't know if the victims of this disaster were deliberately arranged by the Beidi people in order to cause civil strife in my Daning." ”

"Then what should I do?" Yang Hao said, "According to Qin Tianjian's calculations, the rainstorm is coming, and Ji'an County will immediately have a chance to become an ocean, if the people cannot be moved away before the rainstorm comes, I am afraid it will cause a catastrophe." ”

"According to the humble opinion of the lower officials, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to avoid the victims of Jiandong County is to go to Ji'an County to personally walk around, investigate the situation on the spot, and understand what the people think. Subsequently, he contacted Yiguo and moved the victims of Ji'an County to Yiguo. Sun Hui said at this time.

"What Lord Sun said is right, and I agree with it, I don't know what Lord Yang thinks?" Gu Qingming asked.

"Since General Gu and Master Sun both think so, then so be it. Yang Hao said, "It's just that the safety of this official depends on General Gu." ”

After speaking, Yang Hao arched his hand towards Gu Qingming, which was a polite thanks, and Gu Qingming also returned the salute with a fist.

At this moment, the Jiandong County Guard came back, saying that the emotions of the victims had calmed down and that they had been properly settled, and asked Yang Hao what to do next.

Yang Hao said Gu Qingming and Sun Hui's decision, and then several people went to the room of the Jiandong County Guard to discuss the specific plan after that. After Gu Qingming finished the discussion, he returned to his room, picked up his pen and began to write a chapter for Shen Ze, and reported the situation in Jiandong County.

Early the next morning, the three of them disguised themselves and went straight from Jiandong County to Ji'an County according to the route provided by the county guard.

As one of the most severely affected counties, Ji'an County is really as the county warden Zhang said in his report, almost every household in the entire county is threatened by floods, and there are only a few well-preserved houses left, and they are all bluestone brick houses of some high-ranking families.

In the face of the disaster, he did not abandon the people, but vacated all the empty places of the county government to accommodate some homeless people. As for those who really couldn't live and still had the energy to escape, they had already fled to Jiandong County.

The three of them went straight to the county office, found Lord Zhang first, and asked Lord Zhang to take them around to understand the situation.

Because the imperial court had already come up with a plan to deal with the floods, that is, to relocate Ji'an County, and then blow up the embankment and dredge the river, so now their main purpose is how to persuade these people to agree to relocate.

The idea of relocates is often very serious, and after death, people will also return to their roots, and it is not so easy to let them all leave the land where their ancestors have lived for generations and go to live elsewhere.

"Two adults, the disaster in Ji'an County is serious, and if the people knew that the relocation was to save their lives, they would not disagree. Master Zhang said, "Now that many people's houses have been washed away by the flood, if His Royal Highness King Yi can accept them and let them have a place to live, I believe they will understand." ”

"But Lord Zhang, yesterday in Jiandong County, this official was almost surrounded by these Diao people and lost his life. Yang Hao said, "Since you swear so much, then the official will hand over this matter to you to deal with." The rainstorm is coming, and within three days, the officer needs an accurate answer. ”

"Yes, the lower official obeyed. Master Zhang said with his hand, and then took the errand.

Gu Qingming stood aside, listening to Yang Hao's words, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed by his behavior. Yang Hao is obviously greedy for life and afraid of death, the victims of Jiandong County yesterday should have scared him, and the matter of relocation should have been handled by him, the inspector, but he handed over the matter to Lord Zhang.

If something happens in the process of moving, Yang Hao can push the responsibility away, and by the way, push this adult out as a substitute for the dead ghost.

Yang Hao went back after a walk in Ji'an County, and returned to Jiandong County, and the county guard Du quickly greeted him, saying that the victims had come to the county government again to make trouble for a while, and called for them to hand over Yang Hao and give an explanation to the victims.

It just so happened that Gu Qingming hadn't had time to hand over the excerpt he wrote yesterday, so he added a few more words to the excerpt yesterday, and played all the things Yang Hao did in the Ji'an County Ya, and then he hurried up to 800 miles and reported the new excerpt to Shen Ze.

The matter of the flood in the south is in full swing, and when Gu Qingming's recital is heading to the capital, the night has gradually fallen, and there is also a strange calm in the Yali of Jiandong County.

Gu Yan originally led Gu Qingming's personal soldiers and stationed near the county office, but when night fell, he suddenly came to the county office and asked to see Gu Qingming.

"What's the matter with coming so late?" asked Gu Qingming.

"There are more strangers on the streets today. Gu Yan said, "The subordinates didn't pay attention to it, but something happened during the day that made the subordinates pay more attention to these people." ”

Gu Yan told Gu Qingming what happened during the day, but it turned out that there were seven or eight men with fresh faces in Jiandong County, these people were all acting alone, and they didn't seem to have any connection with each other, but one of them, when he passed by a fruit stall, the fruit stall next to him had an accident and was almost knocked over. This man stepped in to help and prevented the fruit stand from being knocked over.

It was originally a small matter, but it happened to be seen by Gu Yan, others may not understand, but for a person like Gu Yan who practices martial arts, it can be seen at a glance that this person is a master who is deeply hidden.

So under the follow-up observation, Gu Yan found that these men with fresh faces coincidentally lived in the Yuelai Inn, and they all seemed to live on the third floor, such a coincidence made Gu Yan wonder.

As Gu Qingming's subordinate, Gu Yan naturally knew very well that it was an eventful time, and he couldn't let go of any clues, and after careful investigation, he really found that these people were secretly meeting on the third floor of the Yuelai Inn, pretending not to know each other on the surface, but in fact they were very familiar with each other.

"You mean, the origin of these people is a mystery, and all of them know martial arts?" Gu Qingming asked, "Did you find anything else?"

"These men are burly, not the leanness of the men of the south, but the strength of the men of the north. Gu Yan said again, "What's more, my subordinates found that one of these people had thick calluses on the tiger's mouth and fingers on his palm, which could only be left with bows and arrows all year round. ”

"Beidi people?" Gu Qingming came to this conclusion from Gu Yan's clues.

The sturdy northern man is good at bows and arrows, which is very consistent with the characteristics of the Beidi people, coupled with the assassination on a rainy night not long ago, the other party is also a good hand at using bows and arrows, so Gu Qingming has to doubt the origin of the other party.

"That's what my subordinates think. Gu Yan said, "But General, if these people are really from Beidi, then their assassination of Yang Yushi on a rainy night before would it be a trick? Their real target should be you." ”

"Things are getting more and more complicated. Gu Qingming said, "First of all, we can't be sure of their identities, and we don't know if they are from Beidi." Secondly, even if they are really from Beidi, could they be Zhou Taichang who colluded to kill Yang Hao? If not, then the purpose of their trip is me, or is it to disturb the stability of Daning, and then take the opportunity to enter?"

I have to say that Gu Qingming's suspicions are very good, because there are few clues that can be known now, but no matter what, the flood control has not officially begun, the relocation of Ji'an County has not yet started, and Yang Hao is not yet dead.

"Gu Yan, you take some people to guard near the county office, and act immediately if there is any trouble. Gu Qingming opened his mouth and said, "No matter who these people are for, if you want to come tonight, it will be another unquiet night." ”
