The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 1085 Before the War

Yang Wennong felt that he was often on the brink of emotional breakdown recently. Recalling the past, he had never been so nervous, even when he first started studying, even when he was young and entered the examination hall for the first time.

Perhaps because she knew that he had no means to contact the outside world, Princess Lang did not mind him knowing about the external situation. Therefore, he had heard about the rumor about the seal that was circulating outside.

Although the rumors outside seemed to be true, most people in the Lang family and the Princess's Mansion on this island were more inclined to believe that this was Sheng Wenzhen's way of making things mysterious.

To use the original words of that group of people, "Sheng Wenzhen is a man of many schemes and is extremely cunning. The seal story is very likely fabricated and exaggerated by him. Don't be fooled."

To be honest, after hearing most people express such opinions, Yang Wennong was a little shaken.

After all, such a crude and simple counterfeiting method really seems to come from her hand.

It's not that Yang Wennong looked down on her, it's mainly because you can't expect a playboy who is used to running rampant in the powerful circles in Kyoto to fabricate false news with sophisticated means.

For them, fabricating fake news is nothing more than creating an excuse to find fault and beat people up, nothing more. It doesn’t matter how crude or false the excuse is, what matters is that they have a legitimate reason.

In Yang Wennong's memory, there were many major incidents of Sheng Yuan picking quarrels and beating people up. Although those dandies from the families of certain dukes, marquises, and cabinet members who were beaten up were not innocent, the fact that "Sheng Yuan was an official in court, and picked quarrels and fought after court, and was unscathed in the end" shocked the cognition of him, an ordinary minor official.

How should I put it? After working in the Ministry of Revenue for several years, Yang Wennong's opinion of Sheng Yuan was: she was a good person who could be entrusted with important matters, a good official worthy of trust, but she was a little arbitrary.

Thinking of Sheng Yuan's fearless character, Yang Wennong felt a little overwhelmed. Could it be that his colleague was getting impatient and didn't want to test the waters anymore, so he planned to decide the outcome in one go? !

Yang Wennong, who had this thought, couldn't help rubbing his hands, "No! No! Sheng Wenzhen just likes to act boldly. She is not cunning, nor is she rough. Let me think about it, let me think about it... Yes, yes, yes, she has always been sensible and can't be stubborn all the time."

"So, if the story about the seal was really spread by Sheng Wenzhen, then she must have made full preparations!" Yang Wennong's eyes suddenly lit up.

He looked towards the boundless river, his eyes swaying with the waves: Perhaps, he still has a chance to help!

……

"Sister Yuan, how is it?" An Yu saw Sheng Yuan picking up the bamboo tube that Yanzhi threw down and taking out a roll of finely crumpled paper from it, and couldn't help but come over to ask.

"Sure enough, General Rong's people were right. Many of the newly recruited laborers at several docks in Zezhou Prefecture can only speak Buchen." Sheng Yuan pushed the letter to An Yu with a stern face. "You know, my eldest brother was the governor of Haizhou. During his tenure, he led people to eliminate many bandits from Buchen. These bandits usually use two methods. They either seek opportunities to land and burn, kill and loot, or collude with profiteers and traitors to hide on the island, waiting for opportunities to seize territory and rob major families and government offices."

"Let's not talk about the Lang family, how did the people from the Princess's Mansion get in touch with them?" An Yu was puzzled and sighed, "Fortunately, General Rong was tactful and cooperated, otherwise, the few people that Brother Lu lent us would not be enough!"

  "Miss, the captain of the personal guard sent a message saying that someone landed at the direction of the dock!" Xiaoyao hurriedly reported the news, immediately interrupting An Yu's sigh.
