Chapter 13: Let it go
Mu Ange didn't know what it meant to be flattering and humble, but she was praised by others, her expression was complacent, and she also spit out a trace of arrogance that she felt was right.
After a few people took their seats, Liu Pengyu pondered for a long time and asked, "Madam, the juniors have something unclear, and I ask Mrs. to answer one or two." ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" asked Lady Black Bull.
Seeing this, Liu Pengyu didn't beat around the bush, and simply went to the topic, saying, "Madam, I saw a lot of wanted notices posted at the city gate before, this person is Fan Yue, the captain of the patrol team of Axe Yue City, it is rumored that he colluded with water thieves and tried to rebel, I don't know if this matter is true or false?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Black Bull's face revealed a touch of gloom, and the exposition was very natural, and she couldn't see that she was pretending, and then said, "This person is very hateful, he has been undercover in Axe City for several years, deceived my trust, prepared to do a big thing, and pulled my family into the water. ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Hei Niu paused, the gloom on her face was swept away, revealing a little sadness, and then said, "Presumably Duan Linglang also knows that my father-in-law has been cautious in Nanluo County all these years, and has continuously worked hard to get rid of thieves.
Xiang Gong is sad every time he thinks of this, because he has no facilities to completely eradicate the thieves in Nanluo County, he can only increase the intensity of attacks again and again, only Xiang Gong is still in the status of Zhennan Hou for a day, those thieves can not be leisurely for a day, so if they want to live, they can only pull my family Xianggong into the water.
In the past few days, the party has gone out, and Fan Yue wants to kill something earth-shattering, but fortunately yesterday I found out that he was a little negligent, so he asked about it, and as a result, he himself was exposed, and fled in a hurry, and now the minister is not in your apartment, as Mrs. Hei Niu, I need to deal with this matter, if the punishment is inappropriate, please ask Duan Linglang to counsel one or two. ”
Mrs. Black Bull's words can be described as impressive, almost making Liu Pengyu feel that this matter was done by Fan Yue in collusion with the water thieves, but her words are full of nonsense.
First of all, if Fan Yue really wants to arrest him and then blame Zhennanhou, he doesn't need to be caught alive, just kill him, only if he dies in Nanluo County, this matter is inseparable from Zhennanhou;
Moreover, Liu Pengyu admittedly doesn't understand what kind of person Fan Yue is, but judging from yesterday's work, this person is a very decisive and clever person, and he will not let people discover the horse's feet during the link, so it is clear that there must be a reason for this;
Third, he suddenly remembered that when Mu Ange came to save him this morning, those guarding the clouds were invincible, and it was obvious that someone was deliberately doing it, and there might be some contact here.
However, he didn't dare to dare to contact Mrs. Hei Niu about this matter, the truth Zhennan Marquis was a famous first-class marquis of the Great Xia Dynasty, and his position and strength were extremely high, if he was falsely accused without any evidence, he would definitely be asking for his own hardship.
Besides, he didn't want to find Zhennanhou to oppose him, and then reveal the inside story, the truth Zhennanhou was also a wishful and dutiful county marquis in the Great Xia Dynasty, and he was constantly protecting the border and consolidating, if he was like Zhennanhou, the current terrain of the Great Xia Dynasty would no longer exist.
Seeing that Liu Pengyu didn't have any bumps, Mrs. Hei Niu sobbed suddenly, and said, "Over the years, Xianggong has invested a lot of manpower and financial resources in order to manage the thieves, and the appropriation base of the imperial court alone is not enough to maintain the strength of today's attack********. Liu Pengyu replied, and doubled his heart to conclude that he had expected it before, this Mrs. Black Bull first said it reasonably, and then moved with emotion, either there was a ghost or a shame in her heart.
He didn't tell the truth, the other party probably recognized his identity, so he stopped the original decision-making, which can be regarded as relatively rational, only look forward to the future and don't explore such a work, otherwise he won't let go of it idlely.
Hearing Liu Pengyu's words, Mrs. Hei Niu quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and replied very meaninglessly, "Let Duan Linglang smile." ”
Mrs. Black Bull's summoning was very attentive, almost allowing Liu Pengyu to experience what it means to be omnipresent, even in the Fengwei Hou Mansion, he has not been notified by Yunyun, and he really doesn't know how to describe it.
Mu Ange was still laughing at him on the side, saying that if he didn't know that Mrs. Hei Niu had no bloodline relationship with him, otherwise outsiders would really think that she was his own mother.
Speaking of this, Liu Pengyu suddenly remembered his mother and younger brother Duan Qiwen, and he didn't know what happened to them today.
Three days later, Liu Pengyu took a boat from Axe Yue City down the river and went to the next target, Huihai City.
Originally, he wanted to stay in Axe City for five or six days, but because the previous incident had been delayed for some time, he had to leave early, and the Truth Stone Business Association would be the first.
The more you go down the Xuelai River, the wider the river surface, the more the water flow is more relaxed, the lower reaches of the Xuelai River are all plains on the foundation, and are hit out by the vast river channel, and the fertile fields of the Pingchuan River are located on both sides of the river, a scene of glory and prosperity.
At the same time, he also discovered a doubt, that is, the further down the stream, the more ships of the patrol team became, and the people on board said that because of the tension of the indecent thieves, they were close to the sea.
Those water thieves are all pirates on the Cosmos Sea, who go up the river to plunder passing passenger ships or merchant ships, and then pretend to be merchants and go down the river to the sea, often this kind of pirates are taking a whole ship, unless they are unearthed at the time of their start, otherwise once they pretend to be the whole ship, it is difficult to find the horse's feet on the ground.
Therefore, we can only send patrol ships to patrol the unchanged river section, and once the pirates are discovered, they will simply be killed!
Liu Pengyu felt that this difficult thing to deal with was indeed relatively hot, but Mu Ange didn't feel the same for this, and teased, "Hey, what's so difficult about this, only to set up checkpoints on the harbor where the pirates enter Nanluo County, and search them one by one, if it is inconvenient to reduce the number of pirates who have mixed in? Even if it is not as good as Xu to do it, won't the Marquis of Zhennan personally go to eliminate those wandering pirates?"
Yunyun's words attracted a master on the side to sigh with emotion, and retorted, "Little girl, you don't understand the ferocious involvement in this, if you do what you say, it will take a few talents to defend so many harbors, but I am afraid that the five soldiers of Nanluo County will not be enough;
Moreover, it was not only the pirates who entered from the Huanxing Sea, but also the merchants from all over the Shangling Land, who had traveled thousands of miles to Nanluo County, and if they held a series of searches here, it would inevitably make them extravagant a large amount of time, and once it led to a bad impact, would they come next time? At that time, the commerce of Nanluo County would only be drastically reduced by half;
As for the Hou of Zhennan to personally exterminate the pirates, it is even more impractical, you must know that Huanxinghai is not the Great Xia Dynasty, not everyone can be the king and hegemon, not to mention, the Hou of Zhennan has more intense work to do than the elimination of pirates, he is the Peng Peng of a county, is a very solid camp in the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, what he wants to ensure is that the Great Xia Dynasty is not harmed by foreign enemies, so the first thing he should guard against should be the kingdoms such as the Divine Tree and Qu Zhao;
These pirates are admittedly hateful, and they are in urgent need of urgency, but the time that leads to the thieves is not a year or two, but a year-round accumulation of accumulation, and it is not possible to dissipate the foundation in a short period of time, and Zhennanhou can only use this technique to shrink the pirates' livelihood and behavior in Nanluo County, forcing them to abandon the decision to rob Nanluo County. ”
Regarding the master's comment, Liu Pengyu was convinced by admiration, and immediately bowed, "What the master said is very true, I don't know where the master is?"
The person who can see the thief through must be an extraordinary person, this old master is admittedly white, but his teeth are open-minded, and his body is like ten thousand rays of light, which makes people dare not look directly.
The old master stroked his beard, smiled, waved his hand and said, "Hehe, young man, the old man is just a worldly person half buried under the loess, what kind of master is that, don't talk about jokes!"
