Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 930 Layout
There really wasn't that much cash in the bank, so the manager could only go to other banks in the city to exchange for cash.Because it was inconvenient to tell Liu Yunxiang's identity, the steward could only tell the story about the county governor's family. When the bank owners learned about it, they all took out cash to exchange it.

"Chief Hu is an honest official and a good official who makes decisions for the people. When he is in trouble, everyone is willing to help." The steward said as he and the guys put the money into the box.

After the inventory was completed, the steward asked Liu Yunxiang to take two steps outside and said, "Elder Princess, the southwest is not stable during this period. Do you want to send a message to Jin'an?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "No, the emperor knows I'm here."

The steward nodded, "That's good. If there's something urgent, you can also ask someone to send news to our bank. We will send Jin An to the Marquis as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Liu Yunxiang was about to leave when he thought of something again, "By the way, Peihou Mansion has a shop in Liangshan County. It will be convenient for me to spread the news when I get there."

She had a hunch that the water in Liangshan County might be deeper and foreign aid might be needed.

The steward shook his head, "No, we don't have a shop in Liangshan County."

"Oh, when your Lord Marquis was bragging, he said that your Pei family's business is spread all over Beijin."

"Hey, Liangshan County is so xenophobic."

"what?"

"It's hard to say. You'll know once you go there."

Liu Yunxiang didn't have time to ask any more questions at the moment, so he returned to Hu's house with one hundred thousand cash.Seeing the boxes of silver, Sheriff Hu couldn't believe it and felt a little weak in his legs.

"If it is really taken away by those bandits, I will never be able to pay it back in my lifetime."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "If it is really stolen by them and cannot be recovered, I will put the blame on those bandits. Don't worry, Mr. Hu."

"No, no, madam is here to help us, how can we be ungrateful."

"It's just some money, it doesn't matter."

Yan Mu and Sheriff Hu have already made a plan, and he will send the money to Orchid Mountain. Sheriff Hu secretly arranges official missions, and at the same time joins forces with the officials of Liangshan County to try to catch all these bandits this time.

"This Orchid Mountain is at the junction of the two counties. We must say hello to Liangshan County. We cannot let them escape to Liangshan County like last time and we were restricted from pursuing them." Commander Hu said.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, thinking that it would be better for the two local governments to join forces to pursue the bandits than to be alone.

"I will demand to see the gold before handing over the ransom, so you must take advantage of this opportunity to cut off their escape route." Yan Mu pointed at a mountain road and at the same time pointed to the woods on the other side, "We must also do something here Good defense.”

"Okay, I know." As he spoke, Sheriff Hu stood up and cheered up. "I have already asked my men to go to Orchid Mountain for control. Now I will go to Liangshan County myself."

"Time is running out, Mr. Hu, please go quickly."

All Liu Yunxiang can do now is to comfort Mrs. Hu and wait for the result with her.

Mrs. Hu was holding her daughter's cloth tiger, nervous and frightened, and her body was shaking all the time.

Liu Yunxiang patted Mrs. Hu on the shoulder, "They will definitely be able to save Shuang'er, they will definitely be able to."

Mrs. Hu hugged the cloth tiger tightly, "My Shuang'er, if something happens to her, I will go find her immediately."

"Don't say such things, Shuang'er will be fine."

Mrs. Hu looked up at Liu Yunxiang and said gratefully: "Mrs. Yan, no matter what, we will always remember your and Mr. Yan's great kindness."

"I am also a mother, and I have also been separated from my children. I can best understand your current mood."

"thanks, thanks."

Waiting for this process is difficult, even for Liu Yunxiang, who is even called Mrs. Hu.She leaned against the bedpost, holding on and restraining herself, not letting herself panic or collapse.

Yan Mu was also waiting here. When it was midnight, several black figures suddenly appeared from the woods. They were all dressed in black and covered with black gauze, like ghosts.The leader's pay was not high, and was a head lower than that of the companions next to him.

He took a step forward, tilted his head and looked at Yan Mu.

"Who are you?"

Yan Mu said: "A friend of Governor Hu." The leader looked at Yan Mu again, and then looked at the box behind him, "People all know that Governor Hu is an upright official who does not take corruption or bribery. If this is true, how can he take Providing so much cash?”

Yan Mu asked the officer next to him to open the lids of the box, revealing the white money.

The bandit leader was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "As expected of a county chief, he is indeed rich. Okay, we have the money, you leave first, and we will send back Governor Hu's daughter later."

"Kill them after taking the ransom. Do you think we don't know what you did?" Yan Mu said coldly.

"If you are happy with the money, we will naturally be happy to let him go!"

"Let me take a look at Governor Hu's daughter first and see that she is still alive before we are willing to pay the ransom."

"Oh, you dare to negotiate conditions with us? Believe it or not..."

"If Magistrate Hu's daughter had been killed, the 10 taels we received would be too unfair!"

The leader snorted, "With just a few of you, we can kill you. It just takes a little effort."

"Then you have to take a good look at me. That day in the forest, I killed more than a dozen of you, including a little leader."

The dwarf's eyes widened and he turned to ask the men next to him. Someone who was present that day recognized Yan Mu and nodded hastily, "It's him, it's him!"

"Okay, how dare you show up!" As he said that, the short man began to roll up his sleeves.

"Okay, since you want to stay here, I will help you." Yan Mu said and was about to draw his sword.

Seeing that Yan Mu could not be frightened, the dwarf shouted, "Don't forget that Governor Hu's precious daughter is still in our hands!"

"That's why I'm here to talk nonsense to you. We don't hesitate to spend 10 taels of silver. What we want is for the child to come home alive. Think about it, this is 10 taels of cash. With this money, you will be very popular in the future. Isn’t it enjoyable to drink spicy food?”

The short leader was silent for a while and said: "Okay, you wait here, we will bring the child over."

"Just go alone, you stay."

"you!"

"After all, we have stayed here, and the one hundred thousand silver has also stayed here."

The short man waved to a subordinate next to him, "Go back and ask the boss. After all, it's only 10 taels."

After the man left, Yan Mu sat down on a box, lowered his eyes and thought quietly.There is hope now. Governor Hu, don't be impulsive. To lure a snake out of its hole, the snake must come out first, and you also need to see Shuang'er's face.

"Hey, let me ask you, how many people do you have?"

The short man sneered coldly, "Would I be stupid enough to tell you this?"

"I didn't ask your name, where your home is, or whether your parents are alive. I just asked a few people. Is there anything I can't say?"

"A lot of people anyway."

"Hundreds?"

"Ah."

"That's thousands."

"Humph."

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes. The average bandit only had a group of a dozen people, and a group of hundreds of people could build a bandit stronghold. And a bandit group of more than a thousand people could compete with a local government office.

Although they were well prepared, Yan Mu began to worry at this time. These bandits were really not simple.

At this moment, a fire suddenly lit up in the mountains in the distance, as if it was a signal. When the bandits saw it, they immediately got up and fled towards the woods behind them.

Yan Mu frowned and thought: Oh no!
