Delong

Chapter 45

It can be seen that Bai Yousi, an old lady, is still very prestigious. At least on weekdays, Ruanrou Square has a lot of treats, so that when Zhang Xing and others are patrolling around to make announcements, almost [-]% of them promise to go, Maybe a very small number of people really don't want to go, but they don't show it in person.

As for the money, Bai Sanniang directly promised each of them 50 taels.

Regarding this, Zhang Xing roughly analyzed that either 30 taels was too little and the Bai family felt ashamed, or the danger of going this time was greater than expected and 30 taels was too shabby.

But anyway, in the afternoon of the same day, all members of the second patrol team of Jing'an Taichung Town Fusi gathered on the main island of Jing'an Taichung.

All 27 riders, under the red ribbon, still have one black ribbon, three white ribbons, and 22 patrol riders. They all wear standard brocade clothes, small warrior crowns, and embroidered knives. Most of them bring their favorite horses, such as Qin Bao. Those who love horses and can't ride them also borrow official horses.Then he took out the inspection papers, ID number plate, some dry food, change, and a few mules and pack horses from the black tower in turn. When the weather was clear, he went out of the city and headed west.

In the evening of that day, he followed the valley water from Xiyuan to the foot of Xiaoshan Mountain.

Between the eastern capital and the western capital, inside and outside the mountains and rivers, is probably the busiest and most critical route in the entire Wei Dynasty. The roads are smooth and the official post system is complete. deserved treatment.

What's interesting is that just twenty or thirty miles out of the Eastern Capital, the officials on the road were obviously wary and flinched when they saw the expressions of the Jinyi Patrollers.

No way, who told you to be stinky spies with the right to collect intelligence and compile reports?

Just after dinner in the evening, the stinky spies started a meeting, ready to persecute Zhongliang. This time, with both black and white ribbons, Zhang Xing naturally listened obediently.

"It's been a long and complicated afternoon, and I haven't been able to announce the specific details of the case. Let me tell you about it."

Bai Yousi was sitting on the window holding a long sword, Qian Tang took two people to do patrolling, and the deputy inspector, Hu Yan with a black ribbon, naturally sat in the middle of the main room in the west courtyard of the official post, and contracted the Jinyi inspector for the west courtyard. The riders give explanations.

In fact, the case itself couldn't be simpler.

Long before Zhang Wenda, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, was assassinated, the court found a letter in Yang Shen's military account. The letter was written by Han Shixiong, the governor of Liangzhou. Attacking the Eastern Capital, he raised troops from Liangzhou to attack the Western Capital, echoing each other.

And this letter is probably an important weight for Yang Shen to veto Li Shu's suggestion and decide to attack the Eastern Capital.

Of course, with the speed of Yang Shen's defeat, Han Shixiong can't do anything, and the court sent Shangzhu Kingdom Han Changmei to capture this person early... Han Changmei easily captured the opponent, then brought him back to Xidu, and then in Xidu The person handed over to the Beiya envoy there.

The envoy did not dare to neglect, and immediately escorted the man back to the Eastern Capital.

However, when you walk to Tongguan, isn't it raining continuously in summer?The road ahead was slightly obstructed, so I stayed at an official post on the east side of Tongguan, waiting for the road to clear.

During this period, Han Shixiong invited the envoy to drink for three days in a row, then suddenly took the opportunity to run away...

Hearing the details of the case here seems to be a complete accident, but in fact, including Zhang Xing, all Jinyi Patrollers know a little bit of the inside story, just listen to it.

"It's up to us, some things have to be said." After Hu Yan introduced the superficial plot, Bai Yousi, who hadn't seen anyone before, suddenly appeared in the room, but named another person. "Zhang Xing, tell everyone what should be said and what should not be said."

Everyone was not surprised, Zhang Xing had already dealt with it calmly, but he handed out a few pieces of paper that had been prepared, and then pointed out the key point with a deadpan expression:
"There are four interesting things here... First, Han Changmei of the Shangzhu Kingdom is the uncle of Han Shixiong, the governor of Liangzhou, the leader of the Zhu Kingdom; second, Han Yingong, the general guard of Tongguan, is another uncle of Han Shixiong; Li Ding, a member of the driving department under the Ministry of War who was in charge of repairing roads destroyed by flash floods, was Han Shixiong's cousin and the nephew of Han Changmei and Han Yingong; finally, according to Han Shixiong's letter, the reason why he wanted to raise troops to respond to Yang Shen , because he has always been worthless for his biological father, former British Duke, and Han Bolong of Shangzhu Kingdom. He feels that the court has treated his family badly. The former British Duke’s military power, title, and eunuch are nothing more than that, but it is normal for Han Shixiong to be angry about it, and there has indeed been a long-term discord within the Han family.”

Speaking clearly, the scene in the side courtyard of the inn was still tense and awkward.

It’s not that everyone doesn’t want to ask, after all, no matter how stupid people are, they might have noticed the tricks here... But how should I put it, the former British Duke Han Bolong was one of the nine heroes of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, and one of the four generals. There are some things that these people dare not Beaked.

"There is something I want to ask." In the end, it was Qin Bao who spoke carefully. "The roads in the Guanlong area were all built by the Han family and his relatives. How could it be such a coincidence?"

"Let's put it this way." Without waiting for Li Qingchen to ridicule, Zhang Xing took the lead in answering. "If the person is not caught this time, the court said that Chief Bai of Jingzhou also had some letters with Yang Shen, so he was also arrested, and ended up running away somewhere in Nanyang... You have to investigate, and you can find ten people surnamed Bai on the way. , there can still be ten former members of the Bai family, plus ten in-laws... a big family, that's how it is."

Everyone looked at Bai Yousi, but the latter didn't say a word, and they didn't know if he was acquiescing, or he was too lazy to argue with his subordinates, or he was thinking about something.

"So." Qin Bao hesitated for a while, and asked back. "Maybe Han did it himself?"

"It's very likely that he just escaped by himself." Zhang Xing nodded. "This is the best result... But we can't follow this, Han Yingong or Li Ding saves people; Han Changmei saves his nephew after getting rid of the suspicion, and deliberately leads us to investigate the innocent Han Yingong and Li Ding; It is even possible for Han Changmei, Han Yingong, and Li Ding to join forces to save people."

The crowd groaned.

"That's the way it is." Bai Yousi seemed to have just recovered, and ordered calmly. "Everyone must be prepared. Tongguan is where General Han Yingong is stationed. He has always had a fierce temper...Even if it is only three or five days away from the east, you still have to be cautious and don't mess with him... When you get there, anyone Don’t leave the team without authorization, we will start to investigate from the station where Han Shixiong escaped, follow the rules step by step, I don’t believe that he can disappear out of thin air.”

Everyone quickly bowed their hands awe-inspiringly.

A day later, the Jinyi Patrollers arrived at Taolin Station, fifteen miles east of Tongguan.

PS: Happy New Year everyone.

One more thing, I don't know how the activities in the activity center are organized, but in fact it was on the 5th, and there is no VIP chapter here in my backstage, so don't be impatient.
