Qin Gong

Chapter 159 Two Commands
"Lord Yang, that Bai Yan moved the city based on only a conjecture without verification, and disregarded the people's grievances. When Di Wei knew about it, he was powerless to stop it. I owe you the favor of the king."

Inside the study.

Under the watchful eyes of the county guard Yang Xian, the supervisor Li Pingyan, and the county lieutenant Hu Jin, Di Wei directly knelt on the ground and told what happened to Gao Nu.

While blaming everything on Bai Yan's head, he also told the county magistrate Yang Xian in a disguised form that the migration of the people had nothing to do with him. When he knew it, it was too late to stop it, not because he didn't stop it.

"Master Di, get up, I will find out the situation, and I will definitely give you justice, and I won't let you be held accountable!"

Yang Xian said softly, then turned to look at Li Pingyan, the censor.

"My lord Li, although I have told the people to go back to Gaonu, but the people have already complained. The old man thinks that there will be chaos in Gaonu, and the king must be informed of this matter."

Yang Xian's meaning is very obvious, the current matter is true, it was Bai Yan who ordered privately that Xianyang must be notified of this matter, although he has sent the people back to Gao Nu, but Gao Nu was in turmoil, so Bai Yan had to be replaced.

After the words fell, Hu Jin who was on the side spoke at this time.

"Master Yang!"

Hu Jin looked at Yang Xian.

But at this time, whether it was Yang Xian or Li Pingyan, they couldn't help frowning when they heard Hu Jin speak.

Because both of them knew in their hearts that the relationship between the Hu family and the Bai family was very good, and Hu Jin and Bai Yu went through life and death together.

They didn't want Hu Jin to plead for mercy right now, this matter is no longer a matter of pleading.

"General Hu."

Yang Xian looked at Hu Jin calmly.

Among the official positions, the county lieutenant and the county guard check and balance each other, but he is not worried at the moment, after all, Li Pingyan, the supervisor of the imperial court, is already on his side at this moment.

"Hu Jin thought, since the people of Gaonu have left Gaonu, why not let the people of Gaonu settle down in Yuzhong for now."

Hu Jin said.

When hearing the news, Hu Jin was startled by Bai Yan, his first thought was that Bai Yan was crazy.

As a county lieutenant, Hu Jin immediately thought of Bai Yan's move, which almost offended all the officials of Gaonu County and Yang Xian, the county magistrate. This reckless behavior was really too radical.

But somehow.

When thinking of the people of Gaonu, who are all in Yinshan Pass now, Hu Jin suddenly remembered that day, that young man was standing outside the gate in this yard, and the battle lasted for more than two hours.

The first time he came to Yuzhong, the boy didn't look for him, nor did he go to eat, but came to this yard and stood like this for more than two hours. Finally, the boy who couldn't ask for reinforcements asked him personally before leaving. In the future, when the people of Gaonu come to Yuzhong, they will be able to enter the city of Yuzhong.

Thinking of these, Hu Jin can understand Bai Yan's actions again.

This busy, he Hu Jin must help.

Inside the study.

Seeing Yang Xian's brow tightening, Hu Jin reached out for a cup of tea without haste, and took a sip.

"Master Yang, listen to Hu Jin!"

Hu Jin put down his teacup.

This move made Yang Xian and Li Pingyan feel at ease. After all, among the three, only Hu Jin holds the military power of a county.

Under the gaze of Yang Xian and Li Pingyan, Hu Jin continued.

"At present, Xianyang's appointment has not yet arrived, and Bai Yan is still the guard of Gaonu City. If the people are rashly sent back to Gaonu, there may be troubles again. After all, the people's grievances have already arisen. The only way to settle down in Yuzhong is to let the county governor Yang Daren personally appease the people. , the common people will be grateful to Dade when the time comes, and listen to it.”

Hu Jin looked at Yang Xian.

When Yang Xian heard Hu Jin's words, he furrowed his brows and relaxed them unconsciously. After all, it is not difficult to hear Hu Jin's words, and Hu Jin's attitude is to listen to Xianyang Chaotang.

Li Pingyan couldn't help but nodded at this moment.

"Master Yang, think about it, if Master Yang directly orders the people to go back, the people will complain if they don't know the situation, and mistakenly blame Master Yang!"

After Hu Jin finished speaking, he waited for Yang Xian to speak.

The words have come to this point, the reasons for face, steps, and favors are all explained clearly, and now it depends on how Yang Xian makes a choice.

If Yang Xian did not agree, Hu Jin would not be so polite anymore. Although the censor Shi was there, the reason was already explained. Hu Jin also had his own considerations, so he could only come down and let the guards at the gate let him go.

After all, it was Hu Jin who controlled the soldiers and horses of a county, not Yang Xian, the governor of the county.

Inside the study.

Yang Xian was silent for a long time, perhaps thinking that Hu Jin's words were true, he finally nodded slowly.

Hu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's inevitable that something went wrong, so Hu Jin sent soldiers to escort the people!"

Hu Jin stood up with a smile, then saluted Yang Xian and Li Pingyan.

"There is General Laohu!"

Yang Xian also got up and returned the salute to Hu Jin.

After half an hour.

In the county lieutenant's mansion.

Hu Jin wrote two letters in his study, and handed one to the general.

"Lead [-] soldiers and horses to pick up the people of Gaonu, and then order that all the pass and pass will be reinforced and defended."

Hu Jin said to Lao Cai.

Right now, Bai Yan has emptied all the people in Gaonu, before Xianyang can reply, he must ensure the safety of all the gates here.

If the Xiongnu really did what Bai Yan said, if the Xiongnu and the Yuezhi really led the army to the south, then Gaonu would only have Bai Yan and his Bai clan cavalry alone in Gaonu.

While he increased his troops to defend, he could also give Bai Yan a little life.

"promise!"

Lao Cai handed over his command and was about to turn around and leave.

"Worker."

Hu Jin called Lao Cai to stop, and under Lao Cai's suspicious eyes, he softly instructed: "If Bai Yan needs it, just let me know, and don't let others know!"

"I will understand at the end!"

Lao Cai nodded, turned and left the study.

After a while, several of Hu Jin's cronies came to the study.

Hu Jin handed over the second volume of bamboo slips to his cronies and was about to speak when a Qin soldier hurried into the study.

"The letter from the general, the governor, and Lord Li has left the city gate and rushed to Xianyang."

Qin Zu said to Hu Jin.

Hu Jin was not surprised, and looked at several cronies.

"When you go back, choose the best horses in the army, three horses per person, even if the horses are exhausted, they must be sent to my father before Master Li's letter arrives in Xianyang."

Hu Jin exhorted.

"promise!"

"promise!!"

Several Qin Jun cronies bowed their hands to Hu Jin, then took the bamboo slips, turned and walked out of the study.

Hu Jin knelt down in front of the desk, watching several cronies leave.

Not to mention the family friendship between the Hu family and the Bai family, but just his relationship with Bai Yu, naturally he will not be indifferent right now.

Not only did his father order someone to inform the Bai family, but his Hu family also had to prepare for the worst, no matter what, they had to find a way to save Bai Yan.

Inside the study.

Hu Jin got up, came to the door, and looked at the sky.

"Bai Yu! Bai Yan is stronger than you and me!"

Hu Jin murmured, and then a smile appeared on his face.

No matter what the result of Bai Yan is, but Bai Yan's actions, ask yourself, he will never dare to be so reckless, not only him, every Gaonu city guard before Bai Yan, that city guard, dare to be like Bai Yan so.

Compared with Yang Xian and Li Pingyan who were prejudiced at the beginning, Hu Jin who has calmed down now can see Bai Yan's kindness through this matter.

As long as his father wrote a letter emphatically clarifying this point, and mentioned Bai Yan's performance in the war of destroying Korea, even if Yang Xian and Li Pingyan remonstrated that the king had read his father's letter, at least he would not give Bai Yan a serious crime.

Qin border.

What Hu Jin, Yang Xian, and Li Pingyan couldn't have imagined was that when their letters were sent to Xianyang.

Less than [-] miles north of the border of Qin State, the grassland that used to be as far as the eye can see is now full of Huns.

From the entire grassland to the sky, the army of the Huns and the Yue clan, numbering more than [-], was marching mightily towards the border of Qin State.
