A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 354 Interception
As soon as Huaiyu got home, two black shadows rushed straight up, startling Huaiyu, thinking that an assassin had entered the house, so he quickly dodged and drew the knife.

The knife is raised.

It was found that it was two dogs who rushed forward.

The enthusiastic and excited tiger-spotted dog and chow lion were also startled when they saw Huaiyu draw their swords to face each other, so they rolled over, rolling around at Huaiyu's feet to please.

"Scare me."

The hunchback Wu Cheng hurried over, "There were wolves in the south of the city earlier, so Alang brought the two dogs there, and I just brought them back today."

Huaiyu knelt down and rubbed the two dogs' heads.

Almost unrecognizable, the blue-tongued chow is as strong as a brown bear, and even the tabby is as fat as a tiger. They were all thin dogs before.

The two dogs have a special status in the Wu family, and they eat better than others. They gnaw on the bones every day, and they still have meat.

"You haven't forgotten me yet." Huaiyu stroked the dog's head. The fur is really smooth and the skin is full of fat. It is not afraid of the cold this winter.

"Did you catch the wolf?" He asked with a smile.

"We also have hounds in the village in the south of the city, but there is no leader. After sending these two dogs over, they are really useful. They brought the hounds of the village and killed several wolves. They even hunted a few groups of wild boars. , not to mention hares and voles.”

The fine dog and the chow chow are well-known hunting dogs. The royal family has raised many of them. The two dogs are more than a circle larger than ordinary dogs of the same kind. , inherent in the bones.

Wolves can't beat them.

Anyway, although there are still wolves in the south of the city, no wolves dare to come near the Zhuangzi of the Wu family, not even wild boars.

It's a pity that such a good dog, Wu Huaiyu didn't have time to hunt at all, and it was inconvenient to take it with him. As a result, apart from gnawing bones and eating meat every day, he was left to breed dogs from other noble families.

The two dogs were very excited to see Huaiyu, and even took him to see their old friends, the two mules.

The two mules of green cattle and white horses are pure foodies in the Wu family, and the mules are almost as strong as horses.

Seeing these two mules, Huaiyu was a little bit embarrassed. Back then, the two mules were covered with injuries when pulling stones and wood on the mountain. Many of the injuries showed bones. They were so skinny that they couldn't stand upright. The butcher, the old man bought it, and it took a long time to heal it after collecting herbs.

It's been almost two years since I went down the mountain, and the two mules are so fat that they can't recognize each other now.

He picked up a brush and brushed them, and trimmed their hooves himself.

Gao Huian came to the stable.

"My sister is here."

Hearing that Gao Huitong, the nine-tailed fox, was coming, Huaiyu patted the mule and went to the flower hall.

In the living room, Gao Huitong was talking to another girl. This girl has been living in Wu's house since she came out of the palace, which is quite comfortable. Anyway, it's no trouble for Wu's family to raise a sister-in-law. Gao Huitong also made her a Zhuangzi , and a sum of money and silk, but she still likes to stay in the Wu family, with her younger sister Hui'an, and also has a companion.

As for getting married, she had married before, but her husband and children died in the war, and she is in her early thirties now, so she didn't think about it for a while.

Seeing Huaiyu coming, she greeted with a smile, then went down first with Hui'an's child in her arms.

hall.

Only Huaiyu and Gao Huitong were left.

It's been a long time, but this sister-in-law seems to be getting more moisturised, and she looks very good.

Gao Huitong, who has multiple identities outside the palace, now lives more freely and comfortably than inside the palace.

"Shibie three days should be impressive. Erlang has been away from Beijing for more than half a year, which is even more amazing. Now he is a state prince with four hundred households sealed." Gao Huitong said with a smile.

"Elder Sister's complexion is getting better and better, the longer she lives, the younger she is."

Gao Huitong smiled slightly.

"Let me tell you something serious. We have a big case in our door and we need your assistance."

"Could it be that Du Cai did it?"

"Du Caiqian is just a small fish and shrimp." Gao Huitong said bluntly.

"Who is that big fish?"

"Li Xiaochang, king of Yi'an County, and Li Youliang, king of Changle,
Peng Guogong Youzhou Governor Wang Junkuo,

Sun Anye, the general of Zuojianmen, they are the big fish.

Liu Deyu, the general of Zuowuwei, Du Caiqian, the governor of Gongweizhou in Pingyu County, and Yuan Hongshan, the commander of the army, are just small shrimps. "

Hearing these names, Wu Huaiyu was also very surprised, although he also knew that these people did not end well in history. When he was engaged in Luo Yi, he rushed to drag these people into trouble.

But after Luo Yi was killed, Liu Zhenghui, Liu Shili, and eldest grandson Anye were the main ones who were implicated in their dismissal. Li Xiaochang, Li Youliang, and Wang Junkuo did not move in the end.

But it doesn't seem to be moving, it's just that the time has not come.

"If the evidence is convincing, just close the net, don't you need me?"

"You are Yuanwailang from our Six Doors, so of course you have to join hands in such a big case."

Li Xiaochang and Li Youliang had already been recalled to Beijing, and they took away their real positions step by step. It was a very simple matter to do it, but Wang Junkuo was the governor of Youzhou, holding the real power in his hand, and sealed off one side to guard one side.

"Has Wang Junkuo already entered Beijing?"

"He has already set off from Youzhou and is on his way. He will arrive in Beijing immediately. We will take him down as soon as he enters Beijing."

Except for Wang Junkuo, others such as Du Caiqian are also local governors, but they have now entered the capital and are in Chang'an.

Six doors have worked on the materials for a year, and everything is ready, and the only thing they need is east wind.

"What do you need me to do?"

"Naturally, you need to preside over the situation together, make overall arrangements, and also secondment the elite soldiers of the Shuofang Bureau under your command."

"Wang Junkuo has always been cunning, has he noticed it? Will he run away halfway?" Huaiyu asked.

He remembered that in history, Wang Junkuo seemed to have fled the Turks halfway, but was intercepted and killed by local people.

Gao Huitong's coming today was Zhang Liang's idea. He hoped that Wu Huaiyu would go out of Beijing to pick up Wang Junkuo in the outskirts of Beijing. As soon as he stepped into the pass, he would be arrested immediately and interrogated directly. Escorted to Chang'an.

"Why doesn't Zhang Liang go by himself?"

Gao Huitong smiled, "He's very busy now, if you do it, he and we will also close the net in Chang'an, the two kings Li Xiaochang and Li Youliang are not easy."

Huaiyu nodded, that's true, those two are the clan kings.

"Okay, I'll take this job."

Right after returning to Beijing, a mission is about to start.

"Do you need to report this matter to the Minister of Criminal Affairs first?"

After all, Six Doors is known as the Fifth Division of the Ministry of Punishment, and it is also under his name.

"No need." Gao Huitong replied directly, Li Jing, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, can't control the criminal and constitutional department, they are directly subordinate to the emperor.

"actually!"

Gao Huitong looked around for a while, then lowered his voice, approached him and said softly, "It's best not to bring Wang Junkuo back,"

"What do you mean?"

"If Wang Junkuo resists arrest, he can be executed on the spot. If he finds out that he has escaped, he can be shot and killed when he is hunted down."

Huaiyu now understands that the emperor doesn't want to see Wang Junkuo anymore, he just wants his head. In fact, the emperor has already grasped Wang Junkuo's various behaviors, including how he killed his in-law Lujiang Wang Li Yuan last year. Not only did the emperor not pursue Wang Junkuo, but instead gave him a great reward, making him the governor of Youzhou, and even ranked third on the list of meritorious officials, with [-] households sealed off, second only to Pei Ji and Changsun Wu. avoid.

Now that the emperor has stabilized his throne, he is finally free to deal with him.

There are [-] households sealed off, and Luo Yi, who ranks ninth in the list, has been punished for treason.
Liu Shili, who had been sealed off to thousands of households, was deprived of his title and expelled.
Now it's the turn of the [-] households to be sealed, and Wang Junkuo, who ranks third.

"I understand."

Wang Junkuo had to run if he didn't run, he was doomed.

Gao Huitong smiled at him, "Your official hero rank is about to go up again. You were ranked No. 43 before, Luo Yi was punished, and you ranked No. 42. Now that Wang Junkuo dies again, you will rank No. 40."

"You forgot Liu Shili, who has a thousand families, he was expelled from Luo Yi and seized the title earlier,"

"Oh, I forgot about him, then you will be ranked No. 40 immediately." She smiled, "It really counts, in fact, you should be ranked first among the 11 people in the 20 households in the same seal, so that you can be ranked again." If you get into the eleventh place, that's the No. [-] ninth place."

Wu Huaiyu didn't care about this.

It is not easy to be a real hero. If you can go up today, you may go down tomorrow, and you may even lose your wealth and life.

Just like Pei Ji who is now number one, can he sleep now?
