Volume 1 Hedong Governor Post Chapter 029 Taishou Expedition
Chunqin and the other four girls glanced at each other, thinking about Wei Xuan's teachings, and it was time to have a relationship with the future housemother Lala. With the incident in the Typographic Ridge the day before yesterday, Su'er was much more enthusiastic about Chunqin and the others, and the elder sister shouted shortly.
It's just that when Cai Yan sat down and called their sister, Chunqin and the others couldn't sit still, their own son-in-law was fierce to them, but the housewife who should be on the same page was so affectionate? This couple is the other way around, is this loss of soul contagious?
Cai Yanyan is slightly younger than Chunqin and others, and is about to become Wei Xuan's wife, but he is naturally much stronger than Chunqin and others in terms of momentum from a big family. However, Cai Yan is also an extremely smart woman, and she doesn't fully understand Wei Xuan's purpose of putting the four girls by her side. But since the four girls are in charge of the White Tiger Order, they must be special on the identity page of the White Tiger Hall, so Cai Yan is like chatting with Chunqin and others about the White Tiger Hall.
Not long after Wei Xuan returned to his small courtyard, Bai Shu and Du Zhong came to report, it turned out that after arriving in Anyi that night, Bai Shu and Du Zhong and others separately interrogated several bandit captives who had brought back to Anyi, and under the training of the torture method provided by Wei Xuan, plus the night before Bai Shu arrived in Anyi, he cut down a few people in front of these people. The rest of the bandits have confessed.
It's just that when Cypress told Wei Xuan about the results of the interrogation, Wei Xuan was a little incredulous. The thieves who ambushed the guards in the Paiziling to welcome their relatives were indeed not near the Paiziling. It's one from Huoshan, and the other part is the local ruffian in Xiangling!
The bandit battlefield on Huo Mountain is rich in gold, and they ran away as soon as they saw that they were defeated. Those who didn't run away were all the ruffians in Xiangling City. But that's all they knew, there were about fifty people in Xiangling City, and they were originally the leaders of two small gangs, but one was killed by the Wei family in the battle, and the other was taken away by the leader of Huoshan when he left.
And the bow and arrow were actually taken out of the arsenal of Xiangling County! At the same time, more than sixty sabers were taken out. That would explain why the bandits were so well equipped and had twenty bows!
It's just that to Wei Xuan's surprise, someone in Xiangling was so bold that they opened the imperial court arsenal to arm the bandits, and then ambushed the Wei family's kissing team! In connection with the previous Wang Yue's assassination of Wei Su, he did not return to Luoyang. Wei Xuan had reason to suspect that both of these events were planned by a certain person, and Wang Yue may have made a short stay in Xiangling before and after.
Wang Yue did not appear in the Typographic Ridge this time, there are two possibilities, one is that the people behind the scenes and Wang Yue both think that these pretending bandits have the certainty of victory. There is also a possibility that Wang Yue has left or the two have not talked! Wang Yue is a hero after all, even if he is reduced to being a dog for others, he has always been a dog with character. However, Wei Xuan was not interested in studying whether Wang Yue had a personality and challenged the Wei family so blatantly, and twice. Of course, Wei Xuan will not let it go.
However, judging from the confessions of the bandits, except for some of the bandits who came from Huoshan, the Wei family's focus was not on those bandits who were instructed by others, but on the people behind them.
Wei Xuan felt regretful that he didn't catch any of the leaders of the three thieves, and the ruffians left behind were only the bottom of the mouth in Xiangling City, they were ordered to act, maybe only their gang leaders knew what they were going to do, and even only knew that the bandits did not know that it was the Wei family's team that robbed. Therefore, the murderer behind the scenes of dealing with the Wei family is about to come out, but it is full of fog!
If Wang Yue is not in Xiangling, and Tong Yuan is willing to go, Wei Xuan can't wait to take people to Xiangling immediately. But reason told him he had to endure!
I also learned some things about Xiangling from the thief's confession, and it turned out that Xiangling has not been peaceful this year, and it seems that the government has also participated in the local family fight. It's just that these ruffians are just hearsay and then speculate, which is not of much help to Wei Xuan.
The Wei family's team was ambushed by bandits at Paiziling, and the Wei family had no way to hide the news. The bride was frightened and needed to recuperate for a while, and the wedding date of Wei Taishi's second son was delayed. The news quickly spread in Anyi, and Taishou Yinde naturally received the news as soon as possible.
Before that, Yin De also knew about the Wei family being ambushed by bandits. At this time, Yin De couldn't sit still at all, assassinated Wei Su, and ambushed the Wei family's kissing team, although these two were aimed at the Wei family, but he was too shou in Hedong, and the security in Hedong was not good, and Yin De was inescapable. The last time Wei Su was assassinated, the Wei family not only did not pursue the Taishou Mansion, but instead sent Yinde new furniture and Taishi chairs that were hard to find. It seems that the relationship between the two sides has eased.
This time, the Wei family's kissing team was ambushed by bandits, and the Wei family didn't even come to Taishou Mansion to report the case, which made Taishou Yinde uneasy. He would rather the Wei family send someone to make a big noise, and that faction would send people to surround and storm the yamen, which is more worrying than saying nothing like this.
He called his housekeeper and the first mastermind Wang Huan over to discuss countermeasures. The three of them all had sad faces, and after discussing for a while, Wang Huan finally said first: "Ming Mansion, no matter whether the bandits in Paiziling are wandering or entrenched, the county soldiers must be dispatched, even if it is just to go to Paiziling to take a turn." It is not good for us to drag it out any longer. Even if the Wei family doesn't react, the other families will have opinions about us. If they are connected in series, it will be a big trouble for the Ming Mansion to go to the imperial court.
In addition, in order to ease the relationship, it is better to express a position directly with the Wei family, telling them that there must be Wei Xuan next year, and even the Wei family can have two people, so Wei Zheng is not bad. And don't wait for Wei Xuan's wedding, it is said that their wedding date has been postponed again. Directly recruit Wei Xuan into the government. This also shows that the prince has no ill will towards the Wei family. ”
Yin De thought for a moment and groaned, "That's all there is to it." It's just that the second child of the Wei family is only eighteen years old, so what position is better to arrange in the county? If you are not satisfied, it will be an embarrassment for the government at that time. ”
"Deng Tai, the governor of the northern post, is very old, and the little one can go and inform him of the meaning of the Ming Mansion and let him take the initiative to resign. Then let Wei Xuan substitute. Moreover, the northern counties are close to the Xiongnu Yufuluo Department, as long as you make it clear to the Wei family that you want to come to Wei Xuan, you will not run around. After the New Year, it is estimated that he should get married, and then it is time to discuss filial piety. Wang Huan thought for a while and said.
"Well, then let's first recruit Wei Xuan as the only one in the north, and I will bother Mr. Wang to go to Weifu for me for a while, if Wei Taishi has no opinion, let's do it first, and tell Taishi that tomorrow I will order the county soldier Sima to lead people south to Paiziling to suppress bandits."
Wang Huan nodded, and then whispered: "But the Ming Mansion also needs to say hello to the county magistrates below and let them cooperate with Wei Xuan." Don't make any more trouble. ”
"Well, I sent someone to give Miss Cai a generous gift, hoping that the Wei family can dissipate the anger." Yin De sighed weakly, he really didn't expect that this period of time would be unfavorable.
Early the next morning, Wei Xuan just got up and went to Wei Su's yard to greet his parents, and was called to the study by Wei Su. Wei Xuan thought that his father was going to tell him about the wedding, but he didn't expect Wei Su to hand over a document from the Taishou Mansion.
Wei Xuan glanced at the document and looked at his father. The Taishou Mansion can only decide its own affairs.
Wei Su raised his eyelids and said, "This can be regarded as a piece of sincerity from Yin Taishou, if you don't want me to let people return this document." ”
"My lord, during this time, there have been people targeting my Wei family, although Yin Taishou may not be involved, but he is still responsible, at least one of them is not good for defending the land. This is also a temptation, and the adults directly rejected the expedition of the Taishou Mansion, and it was okay to change it to weekdays.
But now that there are accidents one after another, the adults refuse to show favor to Taishou, so Yin Hedong is afraid that he will be even more restless. ”
"It's good that you know, he told the old man before, next year you will be counted as one of filial piety. This time, he even said that there could be two people in my Wei family. This post is just to give you more experience in local politics. In the 10 counties in the northeast of the river, there are several people with the cavalry of the Huns. ”
As he spoke, Wei Su took out a piece of parchment from under a bamboo slip, and Wei Xuan took it and saw that it was a map of Hedong.
Just as he was about to study it carefully, Wei Su continued: "Hedong has twenty counties under its jurisdiction, with Luliang Mountain to the north, Huoshan Mountain to the northeast, Wangwu Mountain to the southeast, and the Yellow River to the south and west. The northern superintendent of postal services generally inspects Yang County, Huo County, Fushan, Pu County, Xiangling, Xiangfen, Pingyang, Beiqu, Yonghe, and Ji County.
Yin Taishou has already let people talk, if you accept the conquest of Taishou Mansion, go to Taishou Mansion today to order a mao, as for when the county is up to you. ”
Wei Xuan glanced at his father and said, "The children that adults usually teach their children remember in their hearts. Not to mention how to do your best, I have to go to these counties for a lap or two a year. There are still more than two months left for the Chinese New Year, so I will arrange it, and I will set off in a few days and come back before the year. ”
Wei Su opened his mouth but didn't speak, he looked at his son, although Yin De repeatedly said that the post was just a transition, it seems that the second son was still influenced by himself and was unwilling to be an official who was a vegetarian eater. This is also a good thing, and you can also see the customs and customs of the counties by inspecting them, and accumulate some experience for the future outgoing places.
Seeing that Wei Xuan was about to study the map in his hand, he waved his hand and said, "You go down first, remember to talk to your mother and Miss Cai before Xingxian." ”
"The child knows."
Leaving Wei Su's study, Wei Xuanxuan's mood was complicated, although Wei Su behaved lightly, it was because he was the sect master of the Wei family, Taishi, and it was very common for his son to be conquered by Taishou, and rejecting Taishou's expedition would not cause any loss but would win Wei Xuan a certain amount of prestige. Of course, that may offend Tai Shou Yin Virtue. Although the Wei family is not very much in the idea of guarding yin morality. But now it is obvious that someone wants to target the Wei family, and it is better to have one more enemy than one more friend. The worst thing to do is to keep Yin De neutral!
