Great Qing Dynasty talker

Chapter 278 The aggrieved Hailancha was played by a group of civil servants
Qingjiangpu,
The most luxurious restaurant here.

Yu Yunhe, the food supervisor, and Chang Huoyan, the prefect of Huai'an, were drinking and talking. This was a very high-level banquet, and ordinary people would have never heard of the dishes.

"Master Yu, please."

"Brother Chang, please."

The relationship between the two people heated up sharply after Yu Yunhe said that "classic nonsense" in court.

Huaiyang officials are very curious about what happened in Daotai, so that it has changed so much and progressed so fast.

Maybe, this is homeschooling?
The family education of the old military aircraft is actually terrifying.

In short, Yu Yunhe is now doing well.

The work was done smoothly and smoothly, and we are currently striving to get an "outstanding" official evaluation without having to fight against my father.

"Young Master Yu, don't worry. The head of the Literary Selection Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and I are from the same hometown. I will send you some local products when the time comes, and with your father's face, he will definitely give me face."

He couldn't quite understand the unspeakable embarrassment of Sichuan student Chang Huoyan.

Rumor has it that "the emperor was very surprised, displeased, and shook his head."

……

Through the mouth of Chang Zhifu, he learned many official anecdotes in Jiangbei, as well as some local bad rules that he had never heard of.

“It tastes a little weird.”

Yu Yunhe replied seriously: "Maybe."

So I decided to give it a try.

He was the son of an aristocratic family. Although he had worked hard at school since he was a child, he had access to things like maids, study boys, and study rooms at his will.

……

"Why?"

The dish costs 150 taels per table, with a dish of cold folded ears mixed in, which is particularly contrasting. In fact, the restaurant owner knew that the master had this little hobby, so he served a plate every time as usual.

From then on, he gave up hope of progress and devoted himself to thinking about yellow and white things.

……

After all, it is impossible for a biological father to cheat his son.

"We have been bleeding heavily recently. The new year is approaching and there are countless places to use money. We have to find a way to make up for this loss."

The words were so sharp, deviant, and vitriolic that they made me sweat profusely, and the 20-year ideological defense line fell apart.

……

Yu Yunhe secretly opened his eyes, and at the same time had a deeper understanding of his father's painstaking efforts. It turns out that all the bird knowledge I learned in books was all lies.

With the help of wine, I managed to eat it.

Looking into Magistrate Chang’s earnest eyes,

Magistrate Chang suddenly sighed:

Out of politeness, I also came with a small set of chopsticks.

The two looked at each other and smiled happily.

After thinking hard for several days, I found that logically it was impossible to overturn my father's theory.

Yu Yunhe's heart trembled, and he looked at this guy with a sinister face in surprise.

The other day,

The father ordered the old housekeeper to come with a handwritten letter to teach the son on his father's behalf.

"How to make up for it?"

"When I was young, I was very angry and my family was poor. I couldn't take the comfort of marrying a wife, so I felt uncomfortable. I had shabby clothes, bare feet, cold porridge and pickles, and studied hard. My classmates had delicious food, beautiful clothes, and beautiful maids, but I only dared to look at them. Looking at them would bring evil spirits. Entering the heart, like ants crawling around the heart, the whole body is burning and restless! What's the explanation? The light light of the bamboo stick is used to pick the ear roots in the mountains. The entrance is sour and fishy at first, then sweet. This medicine is wonderful, it can reduce fire and poison, and the rest of the medicine is slightly Reduce evil thoughts and concentrate on studying!"

"Brother Chang, hide your secrets."

To be honest, this person is closer to a pig butcher in image. No wonder he has been in the post of magistrate for ten years without making any progress. I am just put off by this image!
As the magistrate went further, he had to pass by his Majesty, and his honor once left a deep impression on Qianlong.

Yu Yunhe is enlightened.

Colleagues are in harmony, no more constraints, no more Tai Chi.

"Brother Yu, are you not used to eating?"

Chang Huoyan laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, then pointed at the plate of folded ears on the table and asked:

Once you try it, a new world opens up.

"Who doesn't have a few friends in the Qing Dynasty? If there is no chaos in Jiangbei from now on, we two brothers can account for more than half of it."

After three rounds of drinking, he dismissed the servants who were waiting for him.

"You said that the puppet king of Wu dared to send dead soldiers to assassinate the feudal officials on the streets. Then is it possible that he would send troops to Qingjiangpu to burn a few granaries?"

Wonderful, wonderful beyond words.

Chang Huoyan guessed that he was doubtful, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and said with a smile:
"I'm not afraid of my brother's jokes. Your arsenic is mine."

The subordinates are even more respectful and never go against the rules. Ask for instructions in the morning and report in the evening. On the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, you have to take the initiative to check in.

From the general judge to the clerk, the time seems to have been arranged in advance. As soon as the first person left, the next person arrived. In short, there will never be a collision.

The people below are so sensible that it makes people feel distressed!

For the first time, Yu Yunhe experienced the feeling of being a Taoist with ease.

confidence!

Must be confident!

……

The party was coming to an end and the two of them were tipsy.

Chang Zhifu tried to say:

"Brother Yu, I have arranged a digestion activity with local characteristics for you. Do you want to go with me?"

Yu Yunhe naturally knows the correct way to start digestion exercises.

laughed:

"Let's go together. But I have a special hobby. The girl's appearance may be a little mediocre, but she must be able to sing poems. It would be better if she knows a little more about music."

"Old Chang has inquired about it a long time ago. All those present today are girls' school students. You can take the exam as you please."

The two of them left the restaurant, each got on a large green cloth sedan, and wandered to an elegant courtyard in the city.

When you open the door, you will see jewels and jewels, the fragrant breeze blows on your face, and the throbbing of life is dizzying.

I just wish I could eat all the sika deer in the world.

Chang Huoyan finally had the gentle look of a second-ranked Jinshi. He took off his red tassel hat and chanted loudly:

"You were born too late, and I was born too early.

We met today, just right! "

A girl smiled, took the red tassel hat, and said casually:
“Summer has passed and autumn has just arrived.

The husband is not confused, I am twenty-eight, neither old nor young, just right! "

Yu Yunhe's excited eyes shone, yes, yes, it was this kind of frivolity that revealed elegance.

Brother Lao Chang understands!

It’s such a wanton display that no need to go into detail!

……

5000 soldiers from Jiangbei Camp, led by Hai Lancha, braved the scorching sun and rushed to Yangzhou City.

I saw the city gates locked and black smoke billowing inside the city.

"Open the city gate quickly."

The soldiers on the city wall did not dare to make decisions without authorization, so they quickly went to ask Hu Zuoyou for instructions.

He thought for a moment and decided not to open the door yet.

Because there are several other fire points in Yangpingcang that have not been completely burned out. It would be troublesome if someone uncovered something. Everything must be clean from beginning to end.

Although Lao Hu is good at talking, he looks stupid, but he is actually shrewd, and every shot is well-aimed.

He told the soldiers seriously:

"Tell Commander Hai that the city of Yangzhou is tight inside and loose outside. We are arresting the remaining bandits in the city. If we open the door in a hurry, there may be a shortage of gold. Could you please lead his army to rest outside the city for two hours."

"What if Hai Dutong gets angry?"

"Repeat the above."

……

Therefore, Hailancha led thousands of reinforcements outside the city.

Dry it for 2 hours.

These tired Qiuba paid their respects to all the ancestors in Yangzhou City, especially Magistrate Hu.

But Magistrate Hu didn't care. If insulting someone from afar could lead to a violent death, there would be no bad people in the world.

Until the city was almost chaotic and noisy.

He took a deep breath and said, "Open the city gate and let the army enter the city."

Thousands of Wuyangyang reinforcements entered the city cursing.

The dozens of miles of running and the anger caused by the sun made them partially lose control. We ate at the free buffet along the bustling street, eating as we went, taking the opportunity to vent our dissatisfaction.

At this time,
Not even Hailancha dared to stop it. Because morale has reached a critical point, blind pressure may cause a mutiny.

During normal drills, military sticks and whips were used casually, and they could be beaten whenever they wanted and scolded whenever they wanted.

That was because things happened for a reason and the recruits would not rebel.

Everyone is holding a fire in their hearts right now. Can you try to suppress it?
Beat you like a cow!
……

Hai Lancha galloped all the way to the Yangzhou government office.

I saw Magistrate Hu who was wiping his tears and said to himself while crying:
"What's the crime for the people of Yangzhou? They suffered from this disaster."

One word calmed half of his anger. Hailancha, who was sweating profusely, couldn't figure out where to start cursing.

Then I heard this old guy wiping away his tears and saying something particularly shameless:
"That's all, let the people of Yangzhou suffer a little harder for the sake of the Qing Dynasty."

"Tong Haidu, I will keep this matter secret. I will never impeach the imperial court for the crimes committed by the Jiangbei camp soldiers in the city. As you know, I was released from outside the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and there are many people in the court."

"~"

Hai Lancha felt depressed, short of breath and depressed.

The hoarse voice asked:

"what happened?"

The tears that Magistrate Hu had just stopped flowed instantly, and he sobbed for a long time before uttering four words:
"Fantai, he's dead."

……

Boom, Hailancha was instantly dizzy and could hardly stand still.

After a long while, he shouted with red eyes:

"what happened?"

But Magistrate Hu was crying so hard that he couldn't express himself clearly.

Only an official could explain what happened and took him to see Qian Feng's body. He saw only 6 shocking holes and the blood had dried up.

The carriage he was riding in was also placed as evidence.

Hailan looked at the badly damaged carriage, and a cold air rose from the soles of his feet.

"Get out. Everybody get out."

When there was no one else in the room, he calmly started searching.

The body, clothes, boots, and carriage were all left untouched~ Finally, a rolled up note was found inside the red tassel hat.

He only took one look and felt a big thunder explode above his head, and hurriedly hid it.

He left without saying a word.

That night they gathered their troops and set up camp outside the city.

He hurriedly returned to the Jiangbei camp the next day, and ordered three temporary lines of defense to be set up between Yangzhou and Yizheng, which were called to inspect the prohibited goods of merchants.

Huaiyang’s unified official statement to the outside world is:
All the responsibility belongs to the puppet King of Wu. It was he who assassinated the upright official Qian Feng and burned down five official warehouses in Yangzhou and two small warehouses at Qingjiangpu Wharf in Huai'an.

……

In Yangzhou Fucheng, there is a private house with 4 entrances.

Liu Qian was quite satisfied after listening to the report.

"The Intelligence Agency has made great contributions to the prince, and everyone will be rewarded. The two assassination team members are each rewarded with 100 taels. Yang Yuchun is rewarded with 50 taels, and the other participants are each rewarded with 10 taels."

"Thank you, Director."

"Is there still a large-scale manhunt in the city?"

"Yes, the officers and soldiers seem to be serious this time, searching door to door."

Liu Qian suddenly pointed at the black smoke rising straight into the sky:
"Does this have anything to do with us?"

Everyone was stunned, looked at each other, and shook their heads.

"Damn, that's weird." Liu Qian looked puzzled, "I always feel like someone is fishing in troubled waters?"

The little man said solemnly:

"The director is wise. The grain ships that were burned last time at the Hongze Lake were also weird."

He is the assassin who fired the gun in the carriage, named Jiang Tianmu. Currently serves as the head of the Intelligence Agency in Yangzhou Prefecture.

After hesitating for a moment, he reminded:
"Director, I suspect that these dog officials from the Qing court are calling for a thief and putting the blame on us. These people have criminal records, motives, and courage."

Liu Qian's eyes lit up and he slammed the table.

"It's really possible."

……

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Jiang Tianmu stepped aside and said nothing.

After a while, Liu Qian suddenly asked:

"How is that boy Yang Yuchun?"

The man pretending to be the owner of the tea stall immediately replied respectfully:

"This person is very skilled, surpassing all the operational experts in the Intelligence Agency. But~"

"but what?"

"His warrior temperament can be smelled from three feet away."

Liu Qian also feels the same way:

"Send him back to the 2nd Army."

"Yes."

The Intelligence Agency is the most hierarchical entity in the Li Jiajun system.

It is said that military orders fall like mountains, but in fact, within the Intelligence Agency, it is true that those who disobey orders will die.

The army is only ruthless when it comes to war. In the Intelligence Agency, walking into the wrong room could lead to death.

For example, last month,
A clerk in the headquarters accidentally went to the wrong room. He tried to open the copper lock of the archives room, but failed to open it and found that he had gone to the wrong door. He was captured by the guards who came after hearing the news.

After that, I quickly received instructions from Liu Qian:

Execution!

……

Today's Intelligence Agency is no longer the crude organization of the past.

It has operational bases in more than a dozen states and counties, containing gold, silver and weapons.

In total, it has more than 800 formal intelligence personnel, more than 2000 non-staff personnel, and an unknown number of "cooperating eyes and ears."

The so-called eyes and ears are people who exchange money for information.

These people have a variety of identities, including yamen helpers, three religions and nine streams, and government assistants. The one thing they have in common is that they only care about money.

The person in charge of each area is called the team leader, and their family members are placed under residential surveillance in Suzhou City and Jiangning City.

The headquarters of the Intelligence Agency is located in Suzhou.

In order to keep it secret, he moved out of Fucheng and moved to Xujiafen, Mudu Town, dozens of miles away.

The name of this place is a bit ominous, but the terrain is special.

Surrounded by Tianping Mountain, Baima Stream, Tianchi Mountain, Lingyan Mountain, etc.

As we all know, there are no high mountains in Suzhou. The so-called mountains are just small hills with an altitude of one to two hundred meters.

……

The Xujiafen area in Mudu Town is usually very quiet.

Nowadays, there are many houses built, as well as walls and watchtowers. There is no sign at the door, making it even more low-key.

Liu Qian was born in Jianghu and was very sensitive to concealing his traces.

The headquarters was chosen here after careful consideration.

Although the surrounding mountains are not high, they are continuous and extend in all directions. You can go up and down anywhere, and you can eventually reach the headquarters.

If someone wants to monitor and track, it will be quite difficult.

When the headquarters is in danger and must be evacuated, there is a river not far away, which can be merged into Taihu Lake or the Grand Canal by boat.

In the Jiangnan Plain with sweeping views, it is a rare place where cunning rabbits have three burrows.

Liu Qian specially applied for 7000 taels of construction funding.

Later, people were sent to conduct on-site surveys and map the nearby dense forests, mountain roads, peaks and valleys.

Wooden houses were built at several commanding heights, and observation posts were regularly deployed. If there was any danger, sounding arrows would be used to warn. Headquarters guards will immediately provide canine support.
