Chapter 223: Trumped-up Charges
But Xiao Man swore that it was the people of the county government who exterminated the bandits, and he did not hear that the city had sent troops to support.
Shen Yan felt that Xiao Man had heard it wrong, and he wanted to go to the county government to inquire in person, but was stopped by Sang Sang.
"Your injuries are not healed, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
Sang Sang had a serious look that could not be refused, as if he was a tigress.
Shen Yan had never had any temper in front of her, so in the end he could only do it honestly.
In order to prove that he didn't inquire about the wrong news, Xiao Man volunteered and went to the county government again, and went to investigate.
After repeated investigations, Xiao Man patted his chest directly and swore solemnly, "I said it all, I heard it right, this time it was the county government who suppressed the bandits, and the leader was the head of the Xi Hunt." ”
Shen Yan had to believe this fact, but deep down in his heart, he still felt that this matter was a little too incredible.
Although it was a good thing to exterminate the mountain bandits, he felt that it was a little too smooth.
For so many years ago, this group of mountain bandits has always been a disaster in all directions, and Peng Xian Ling had a mediocre attitude towards sending troops to suppress the bandits, and even his subordinates had a very negative attitude towards this matter, because they decided that this matter would inevitably be difficult to achieve, so everyone did not do their best.
Yes, although the county government will send troops every time, it is more like coping with things.
This time it turned out to be, could it be that Chu Heng exerted pressure with his identity, which made Peng Xianling really concerned about this matter?
But the strength of the county government is like this, and to put it mildly, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a shrimp soldier and crab general.
A slap with a little skill can be counted, and they really eradicated the mountain bandits in one fell swoop, which is really impressive.
However, a few days ago, Shen Yan drew a topographic map of the mountains and the layout of the cottage, and sent them to the county office.
He thought, didn't the topographic map he provided help?
In any case, this group of mountain bandits has been eradicated, and it is a good thing for both public and private affairs.
Everyone was very happy to hear about this, and Shen Yan also suppressed the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
But this happy atmosphere didn't last long, and the original uneasiness in Shen Yan's heart was also verified.
In the afternoon, Sang Sang, Ah Chou, and Xiao Man all went to the store to help, and only Shen Yan and Gu Yunzhi were left at home.
Gu Yunzhi practiced walking on crutches in the yard, which was a training he had to carry out every day.
Under the care of Ah Chou and his own training, his hands and feet have become more flexible, if he used to walk as an eighty-year-old lady, now he has become a sixty-year-old lady.
In order to recover as soon as possible, Gu Yunzhi took advantage of their absence to practice every day.
And Shen Yan was reading books and practicing calligraphy in the study.
Everything needs to be accumulated, and nothing can be achieved overnight.
After this period of study and hard practice, both calligraphy and understanding of texts have greatly improved.
Mr. Cen gave him some questions and asked him to come back to write an article, although he still wrote not well enough, but at least he saw the topic and immediately appeared in his mind a general idea, and it will not be like before, his mind is empty, that is, he racks his brains and does not know how to put pen to paper.
Because his mind was filled with things, he slowly developed his own thinking and understanding, which was a great improvement for him.
But Mr. Cen also said that he only has a rough outline and frame at present, and there are still too few things to fill inside, so he must seize the time and try to absorb as much knowledge as possible to fill himself as much as possible.
Just when the two men were disabled and were working hard for their future, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, which instantly broke the tranquility of the courtyard.
In a panic, the brush in Shen Yan's hand trembled slightly, and a drop of thick black ink fell down, smearing on the snow-white paper, and in an instant, the entire paper was destroyed.
Shen Yan's eyebrows jumped fiercely, and a feeling of even greater panic and uneasiness rose in his heart.
Gu Yunzhi was also startled by the big movement outside, and the lid of the pot that was originally nesting in his nest lazily wagging his tail also got up and screamed outside.
Gu Yunzhi walked to the door in a wheelchair, shouting loudly, "Who?" ”
"Official, open the door!"
When Gu Yunzhi heard that it was the government, he thought that something from the county government had come to Shen Yan, and he couldn't help muttering, "It's coming, don't knock, what a hundred thousand urgent things are so urgent." ”
As soon as the courtyard door was opened, he saw a few yacha with faces standing outside, but their expressions looked very fierce, and Gu Yunzhi suddenly became vigilant in his heart.
"What's the matter?"
The leader of the yacha said in a rough voice: "Shen Yan is suspected of colluding with bandits, we were ordered to come and arrest him, where are the others?" ”
When Gu Yunyi heard this, he immediately suspected that he had heard it wrong, and the expression on his face was full of consternation.
"What did you say?"
The yacha's voice was like a bell, "Don't pretend to be stupid, where is Shen Yan?" For the sake of his colleagues in the past, if he obediently restrains his hands and captures him, we will give him some face, and if he resists stubbornly, then don't blame us for being polite. ”
Gu Yunzhi still maintained his mouth wide open, and his whole brain was in a state of mush.
He understood every word they said, but when it came together, why couldn't he understand it so much?
Shen Yan is suspected of colluding with bandits, can there be anything more outrageous?
During this time, he sneaked up the mountain every once in a while to explore the terrain, in order to eradicate the bandits as soon as possible, and his injuries were also left by those bandits, and those who have brains know that it is impossible for him to collude with the bandits!
But these brainless words came out of the mouth of this yacha, and Gu Yunzhi couldn't help but have doubts about their identity.
These people, it shouldn't be fake!
But such suspicions were shattered after Shen Yan came out.
His face was cold, and his eyes burned as he looked at the head of the yacha, "Fang Xingqiang, what's going on?" ”
When Fang Xingqiang saw Shen Yan, his expression was still not relaxed, and he still had that businesslike indifferent attitude.
"You should know better than we do what is going on. Don't talk nonsense, come with us! ”
If it weren't for Peng County's instructions, Fang Xingqiang would never dare to come to his house to take people so openly, which shows that this matter has risen to a very serious level.
Collaborating with bandits is a very serious crime, and he must not admit to this trumped-up charge, otherwise, his life will be over.
