51. Northwest turmoil
Just when Li Tianming was cultivating with all his might, there were some riots in Yunbei City, where the war had stopped at the beginning of the war.
After resting, the Northwest Army sealed off the entire Yunbei City and searched from house to house.
This made the residents of Yunbei City, who were finally at ease, worried again, and speculated whether there was something big going on.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the Northwest Army were only searching for fugitives, and it was said that they were just a little maid, and the harm was not great, which made the residents of Yunbei City feel a little relieved.
But what they didn't know was that at this time, in the City Lord's Mansion, Yu Qian was furious, and almost picked up the red candle and slashed a few people in front of him.
"Li Tongpifu, this official has finally calmed the panic of the people, who asked you to transfer troops into the city? If something happens, can you afford it?"
Yu Qian pointed to the tangled beard in front of him, and the more he spoke, the more angry he became.
"Lord Yu, this is a big matter, and I am also acting on orders, and I have ordered that no one should disturb the people, and if there is any violation, military law will deal with it. All the soldiers of the Wuji Army have been sent out by me to serve as overseers, so I don't think there will be a problem. ”
In the face of Yu Qian, who had no cultivation, Li Tong couldn't help but bow his head, it was really under Yu Qian's jurisdiction in Yunbei City, and the military was not allowed to interfere.
At the moment, if it weren't for the order that the third prince brought to King Wei, Li Tong would not dare to transfer troops privately. Therefore, Li Tong, who was at a loss in front of Yu Qian, lowered his head in congenital momentum.
"The stakes are big, no matter how great it is, it can win the hearts of the people in this city? Don't rely on seniority to do nonsense, think about Shi Antong's experience. ”
Yu Qian's face was cold, and there was no threat in his words, but it made Shi Antong sweat coldly.
"Lord Yu, even if I have the courage to do so, I don't dare to transfer troops privately, it's really, really a last resort. ”
Li Tong remembered the ruthless man in front of him who even Shi Antong dared to kill, and he couldn't get angry.
"I don't care about anything else, I limit you to take someone out of Yunbei City and return to the barracks before three o'clock. Otherwise, I will definitely write to Your Highness to join you in a great crime of rebellion. ”
Yu Qian naturally knew that it was impossible for Li Tong to rebel, but that didn't mean that he couldn't use this to express his dissatisfaction.
"Thinking about the efficiency of the Northwest Army, there will be results soon!"
Li Tong's attitude towards Yu Qian was naturally unhappy, but people had to bow their heads under the eaves.
Not to mention that the third prince ordered not to reveal it to anyone, even if the third prince was present at this time, this stubborn donkey might not necessarily buy it, this is a person who even His Royal Highness King Wei dares to scold in person.
Fortunately, after a while, Ma Tao, the commander of the Wuji Military Guard, walked in and whispered a few words to Li Tong.
Li Tong's face changed after hearing this, and he hurriedly said to Qian:
"The matter has been decided, I will lead the army back to the camp, and please Lord Yu must be optimistic about the security of Yunbei City, and be careful of small chaos. ”
After that, he left in a hurry with Ma Tao.
"It seems that something has happened, it's really eventful, I hope nothing happens, Yunbei City can't withstand another destruction. ”
Yu Qian didn't hold back on Li Tong's departure, and even after he left, his expression didn't seem so angry, he just stared at the red candle in his hand and muttered to himself.
"Come on, strengthen your vigilance, and patrol the streets everywhere. If there is any change, report it as soon as possible, and the official will be in charge of it today!"
After thinking for a while, Yu Qian made up his mind, although he didn't know the deep meaning of Li Tong's last sentence, he was careful, and quickly sent all the officers and soldiers patrolling the city to guard the city lord's mansion.
Yunbei City made such a big move naturally couldn't hide the spies hiding in the city, although after the devastation of the war and Li Tianming's purge, the spies of the rest of the forces were much less, but this thing could not be eliminated at all.
What's more, the officials in the rest of the northwest have more or less ears and eyes in the city, and these are all in the open, and they are not nominal spies, and they are ordered to pay attention to the movements of the palace and govern in a timely manner.
Soon, a piece of news spread from Yunbei City to the northwest.
The maid of King Wei who was imprisoned in Dongchang Imperial Prison disappeared, and King Wei was furious and searched everywhere to find out the person.
At the same time, there was also a hypocrite who disappeared, and His Royal Highness King Wei suspected that the virtual organization was determined not to change, so he did not hesitate to mobilize a large army into the city, but unfortunately he found nothing.
Of course, this is all news circulating on the surface, and in fact, no one knows whether it is true or not.
More people thought that this was just a trick played by His Royal Highness King Wei in order to protect the maids, especially those who wrote to request the killing of the bee feather coat, and even sneered again and again, thinking that King Wei had made a stupid move.
For a time, the entire northwest undercurrent surged, and the intersection between officials from various places became frequent overnight.
And some people who think they have the chance to win are acting more and more unscrupulously.
And what none of them knew was that there was a group of dark shadows who were secretly and silently watching their every move, coldly watching them jump up and down, collecting all kinds of evidence.
"How?"
In the compound of the prefect of Qingning Mansion in Tianhai Province, several people were waiting anxiously, and after seeing a person who looked like a small man walking in, a middle-aged man with a long beard couldn't wait to ask.
"The news from Yunbei is that a large army has indeed entered the city and blocked it for three hours, and there is much martial law everywhere than usual. ”
After the little guy finished talking about the news he got, he was waved away by the middle-aged man with a long beard.
"Brother Du Ming, what do you think?"
The long-bearded middle-aged man asked to the left of the first old man with white hair and extraordinary bearing.
"Governor Lin's Mansion is a little restless, from the old man's point of view, there must be something else going on in Yunbei City, otherwise it is not a wise man to move the people so much for the sake of a mere maid. ”
The old man is Chen En, the same governor of Qingning Mansion, and the long-bearded middle-aged man is Yu Xinghai, the prefect of Qingning.
Chen Tong knew that this was wrong, and everyone in the world knew that King Wei was acting absurdly, and he was even more fond of his maid. Besides, there is no wind and no waves, and the rumors in Yunbei may not be credible. ”
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting on the right, Zhou Fu, the governor of Lanhai Prefecture, Qingning Prefecture, if you only look at his figure, I'm afraid everyone will only think that he is just a martial artist.
But the officials of the entire Qingning Mansion know that this honest middle-aged man with a bad stomach is an indispensable dog-headed military advisor for Yu Xinghai.
"Hmph, although King Wei's actions are absurd, he has always been measured, how can he take military affairs as child's play?"
In the face of Zhou Fu's rebuttal, Chen En's face was a little unpleasant.
"But have there been few ridiculous things that King Wei has done over the years? In my opinion, it is not as good as the eldest prince on the throne, at least as long as the eldest prince pays the tax burden on time, there are not so many rules for us. ”
Zhou Fu was a little dissatisfied with Li Tianming, but praised Li Tiandao.
"Okay, at this time, what we should discuss is what Li Tianming Xiao'er wants, and how we should deal with it. The rest of the little things are put aside. ”
Yu Xinghai also had a headache for these two subordinates who had been dealing with him, but he had to change the topic, otherwise once the two quarreled, it would be endless.
