Chapter 62: People are all like fans
In the end, Zhu Xinfei did not dare to act rashly.
Shen Wanshan competed with him in business, because he had Zhu Dachang's umbrella, so he had suppressed Shen Wanshan to death.
Now that Zhu Dachang is dead, the new people in the county government are replacing the old people, if Shen Wanshan takes the opportunity to tell the truth in front of Xinzhi County, he Zhu Xinfei has only one way left.
That's a dead end.
He is now a dragon swimming in the shallows, and the tiger is falling in Pingyang, and he does not dare to anger Shen Wanshan at all. He also regretted very much that he had tried to be happy for a while and said something he shouldn't have said.
Old man Du was even more eager to slap his mouth.
Originally, there was not much conflict between him and the new county order, and a few catties of tung oil and spirits were only a drop in the bucket for the richest man in Qinghe.
The reason why he showed such indignation was because the business community in Qinghe County had always respected him, and he had always regarded himself as the leader of the Qinghe business community.
However, the new county order did not take him as a leader in his eyes, lacked respect for him, and said that he was treated equally, and he must hand over tung oil and liquor.
He also heard that Shinchi County is not only young and young, but also a son-in-law from a humble background.
The inherent prejudice in his heart, coupled with the fire of people with intentions, he made a lot of nonsense about Xinzhi County on impulse.
On the surface, Shen Wanshan's words just now were aimed at Zhu Xinfei, but people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, who knows what he really thinks in his heart? If he doesn't stop giving himself up in order to please Xinzhi County, he doesn't know who to talk to.
In the backyard of the county government, Kong Fang was full of food and drink and went to Zhou Gong to talk about life and ideals.
The county government is a busy scene.
Fang Shiyi was busy counting the results; Master Kong Yiji was busy writing the An Min list and writing the seal. Qinghe County eliminated 500 mountain bandits, and the bandit leader Zhu Chongjiu was punished, and such a great credit must be reported to Baoding Prefecture.
The servants and servants were busy washing vegetables and cooking.
Last night, the logistics squads of the county soldiers also participated in the battle, not only tired of being a dog but also a meritorious hero, and at this time they were still preparing for war on the city wall, so Fang Shiyi handed over the cooking to the officials and servants.
In order to prevent the mountain bandits who did not come down the mountain last night from sneaking attack and retaliation, Fang Shiqing and Luo Wenpeng were undressed, and led the county soldiers to garrison the city wall, and Luo Wenpeng also released the patrol post five miles away.
In view of the lack of people and horses, the two decided to divide the county soldiers into two divisions to rest in turn, one to rest on the spot, and the other to continue to be on duty, and replace them once every two hours.
Fang Shiqing held the sword on her waist, she didn't look out of the city, but instead her eyes fell on the county government not far away.
She had mixed feelings.
In the backyard of the county office, in the largest room, lay the person she hated the most in her life. Because he ruined his life, ruined his expectations for life and marriage.
But it was he who led 300 recruits to kill 5 or 600 fierce mountain bandits, and the biggest miracle was that there were almost no casualties on his side.
She has been familiar with military books since she was a child and has seen many war examples.
Whether the weak prevail over the strong or the strong bully the weak, neither of the warring sides can avoid casualties. But the most unpromising and shameless person in his eyes created a miracle of zero casualties.
What kind of person is he?
She has always thought that she is a scholar, but he slapped her in the face.
Could it be that he was sent by heaven to embarrass him? Fang Shiqing's hand holding the sword couldn't help but tighten.
But when she remembered that she couldn't hold on to Zhu Chongjiu, he risked death to stab the figure, and her hand was released again.
Alas, perhaps he is his own enemy.
"Senior Sister Fang, why are you sighing for a long time?"
Luo Wenpeng appeared behind her. Fang Shiqing turned his head and smiled, "Senior brother, why don't you rest?" ”
"Can't sleep." Luo Wenpeng was calm.
Last night's battle shocked him too much, he has been in the army for more than ten years, has fought with foreigners, and fought with mountain bandits, which battle is not a bitter battle, a bloody battle, only last night's battle won easily.
Please enter the urn, attack with fire, use the power of heaven in the heavens, and advance together with people and gods, it sounds like telling a story.
As far as he knows, the former magistrate Zhu Dachang was mediocre and incompetent, and there was no such thing as benefiting one party, and it was an open secret of Qinghe County to bend the law for bribes and enrich his own pockets.
As for Kong Fang in Xinzhi County, he has only been in office for a few days, how can he be virtuous?
Why was Shangcang moved by Qinghe County repeatedly?
The more Luo Wenpeng thought about it, the more he went up, and finally made him toss and turn.
Of course, Fang Shiqing knew that both Zhu Dachang and Kong Fang were talking nonsense. The only difference is that Zhu Dachang is to grab credit, while Kong Fang is to protect himself and his family from being targeted by people with intentions.
Shocking Thunder is the most important hole card for the Fang family to survive in the troubled times, even if the other party is the son of the husband she respects the most, she can't reveal anything.
"Senior brother, why are you bothered?"
Fang Shiqing carefully comforted, "Guan Jian is that we won this battle and protected the safety of Qinghe County. ”
Luo Wenpeng pondered for a long time and nodded, "What Senior Sister Fang said is extremely true. ”
Then he teased: "I once heard that my junior sister once resisted my brother-in-law Kong Fang in every way, and vowed not to marry." Now it seems that Senior Sister Fang, who has always been smart and unique, also has times when she looks away, but fortunately, ......"
"Senior Brother Luo, don't talk nonsense."
Fang Shiqing was resentful and stopped Luo Wenpeng.
Her heart is now in a mess, and Luo Wenpeng's teasing like this makes her even more flustered.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to say anything." Luo Wenpeng said as he pressed his hand.
The Fang sisters are their father's proud female students, and the two families have close contacts, Luo Wenpeng certainly understands Fang Shiqing's character, she is both civil and military, but she is light and martial.
She has a strong personality and a lot of personality.
People with this kind of character are either bad, or they are destined to take more bumpy roads in life than others.
The two stood side by side, discussing some of the battles, the art of war, and the experience that Luo Wenpeng had explored on the battlefield.
He will leave in a few days, Qinghe County is his hometown, his parents live here, he hopes that Fang Shiqing will grow up as soon as possible, whether in public or private, and live up to the trust of tens of thousands of people in Qinghe.
A servant hurriedly arrived, and he sent Fang Shiyi a battle report sorted out: more than 500 bandits from Fuzhu Mountain, including the bandit leader Zhu Chongjiu, and his younger brothers Zhu Chongshui and Zhu Chongzhu.
Because Zhu Chongmu did not go down the mountain, he became a fish that slipped through the net.
A number of swords and guns were seized, dozens of war horses, and ten taels of broken silver (all of which were recovered from the dead mountain bandits).
300 county soldiers, one lightly wounded (sprained ankle while carrying the corpse of the mountain bandit), no one was killed; Thirty soldiers, none of them were killed or wounded.
This battle, a complete victory.
Although the two of them already knew it in their hearts, they were still embarrassed when they saw the battle report.
"Senior Sister Fang, my soldiers and I will leave in a few days. The bandits in Qinghe have not been eradicated, and it is up to you to protect the safety of the people in Qinghe. In the future, you will have to listen to your brother-in-law's opinion more about the banditry. ”
"Although my brother-in-law has no power to restrain the chicken, he has hills and valleys in his heart, and he is talented in his belly."
Fang Shiqing's eyes lit up, "Senior Brother Luo really looks at him like this?" ”
