Chapter [-] Flying Fish Card ([-])

The army set off as scheduled, with 45 horses set out on a mighty journey, with no end in sight. The flags covered the sun, and the dust and smoke covered the sky. Although Qingzhang is only less than a thousand miles away from Mingzhou, the movement of an army is far inferior to light cavalry, especially the troops in the heavy camp. moving very slowly

The people and horses stretching for dozens of miles can't go far from dawn to dusk

It's the warm spring, and the weather is suitable for traveling, so this trip is much more comfortable than coming from Jingxiang area. Li Xian doesn't have to do any more running for thousands of miles, and he doesn't even ride a horse at all, just handles the court affairs in the carriage The discounts in the book will be delivered every other day, but the discounts on the surface are basically no big deal

Just as Xu Shiji expected, although Ming Province has not yet been conquered, the courtiers in Chang'an City, which is far away, seem to have a sharp nose, and some people have already started to beg His Highness King Yan to be promoted to the throne.

The carriage is covered with comfortable cotton cushions, and it is extremely comfortable to sit on. The official road built during the Sui Dynasty is flat and wide, and there is almost no bumps when the carriage is moving. Especially in spring, the scenery is just right. When I am tired of handling official duties, I open the curtain and look out the window. The scenery is pleasant

Li Xian looked at a faint mountain scenery not far from the window, and slowly turned his gaze back, couldn't help but smile with a little contempt

"From Chang'an to here is the fastest way for the Military Audit Office to deliver news. It will take at least a month to go back and forth. faster?"

Li Xian threw aside the memorial in the book, looking a little disgusted

Ye Huaixiu, who was sitting beside him, picked up the fold, put it aside and stacked it: "Maybe they saw something from the good news they reported back to the court, so someone can figure out something from it."

"It's as simple as that"

Li Xian sneered coldly: "I'm afraid someone can't sit still."

"Sir...students don't understand what disgusts you"

Ashina looked at Li Xian and asked seriously

"Someone in the court turned up and advised me to be promoted to the throne and proclaim the emperor. From your point of view, what does it mean?"

Li Xianwen

Ashina pondered for a while and said: "Students think that there are only three points... one is because they know that Hebei has won consecutive victories, and now it is approaching Mingzhou Shuda8.. After the matter in Hebei is settled, Mr. This matter still needs to be brought up, since it will eventually happen, it is better to do it as soon as possible.”

"Secondly, these ministers are afraid that the gentleman will forget them, so they show their loyalty, and it is also to let the gentleman see their names from time to time. To be honest, it is because they are worried in their hearts, or maybe they are lucky enough to hold the If it fits your mind, sir, it will be developed. The idea of ​​this memorial was written."

"Third... to test Mr.'s mind"

Ashina said softly: "If it's the first two reasons, you don't have to worry about the first or the second. It's just an act of flattery and catering. It's just for the sake of your husband, but the third is for your own future... ...I'm afraid it will take some brainstorming."

Li Xian saw that she was speaking seriously, so he couldn't help but smiled and asked, "Then why is it so complicated for you to test my mind?"

"It depends... People who tempt your mind, sir, what is the basis for this temptation? There are two types of temptation. The first type is to flatter and cater to. If the temptation is to confirm your mind, then they will make preparations quickly, lest they fall on others. Later, Mr. Yong proclaimed himself emperor, which is not a small credit. The second type... is that some people have a guilty conscience, and they do this just to prove it, and then make preparations."

"From Chang'an to Jingxiang and then to Hebei..."

Li Xian said with a smile: "You have improved a lot. With one word from me, you can think of so much with just one discount, which is not easy."

"It's my sister who taught me well on weekdays"

Ashina glanced at Ye Huaixiu, lowered his head and blushed slightly

"Then you said, if it's to test my mind, and it's because of a guilty conscience...then why are they guilty?"

"If you are loyal, why should you be guilty?"

Ashina replied seriously

"Well said"

Li Xian nodded and repeated: "If you are loyal, why should you be guilty? Some people always pretend to be smart and think they can use this obscure method to guess my thoughts. If I am really anxious to become emperor, I am afraid they are more anxious than me. Once the news is confirmed, they will jump out immediately, and they can no longer sit still where they should play ugly, and those who should do evil will do evil."

Seeing Ashina's smug expression on his face, Ye Huaixiu couldn't help but shook his head: "This matter is really simple. The first few to submit the memorial will most likely have nothing to do with it."

Li Xian picked up a memorial and threw it on the ground: "Principal of the Ministry of Punishment of the sixth rank"

Picking up the second copy and throwing it on the ground: "Military Department member Uiro from the sixth rank"

The third one: "The biggest one is an official from the fourth grade... These people are not even minions, and it doesn't make people feel distressed to touch these small shrimps, but I don't know how many big fishes have escaped."

"Then don't do it?"

Ashina said with some regret

"Of course it has to be done... Song Huai, head of the Ministry of Punishments, Du Chun, a member of the Ministry of War, and Min Jing, a servant of the Ministry of Officials, will be dismissed and put in prison first."

"What crime?"

Ye Huaixiu asked

"I remember you once said, ten officials and nine corrupt...then do a corruption case. If you don't find out the corruption, then do dereliction of duty and tell Xie Yingdeng that the people in the military inspection department are the most honest officials who do this. , They are also stupid idiots who are used by others, and they will be imprisoned for a few months so that they will have a better memory and children will also time travel!"

"If these people are locked up, the people behind them will be confused."

Ye Huaixiu smiled, with admiration in his eyes

Mingzhou

Shiwulipu outside the city

This village is not big, there are only ten families, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, especially after it was said that Yan Yun's army was about to arrive in Mingzhou, all distant relatives in the village brought their families with them. Those who left went to Hexi, those who voted in Henan, and even those who went north to Zhuojun. They really had no relatives to vote for, and those who were richer also moved into the city of Mingzhou.

This place is only fifteen miles away from Mingzhou City, and once the war starts in the future, it will be the place where people will fight. Even though the surnames know that the current army is not as rude and violent as it was in the last years of Daye, no one wants to be on the battlefield, so the rest of the village, Only twenty or thirty families of the poorest

They either have no money to hide in Mingzhou City, or they are reluctant to part with the wheat that will be harvested in two months, or they are old and stubborn, and they are reluctant to part with the few adobe houses at home.

So that those who go out of the city and want to rest here don't have to knock on the door at all, can I stay overnight?

The village is not big, but now there are many empty courtyards

When the white-faced Wu Bushan and the thin Wang Qinian walked into a small courtyard, Guan Xiaoshu, Zhang Zhongjian and Zhang Wancheng were already standing in the courtyard waiting. , after another day, Wu Bushan and Wang Qinian left the city

"This courtyard is owned by the richest household in the village. Originally, two servants were kept guarding the door and they were not allowed to enter. It wasted 20 taels of silver to run it...Even in the Banyue Building in Chang'an, if 20 taels of silver is not used for whoring, it will not be done. Gambling is enough to live for half a month. In this crappy place, hot water is not always available for twelve hours."

Guan Xiaoshu sighed, as if he still felt sorry for the 20 taels of silver.

"This bank is considered public, so I can report it later and make it up for you?"

Wu Bushan rolled his eyes at him and said: "Anyway, you're still the head of the fifth department of the Military Inspection Department, and a month's salary is enough for you to squander for a while. There is no shame in being greedy for money, but it is shameful to be greedy for petty money. The Super Love Saint Buddha Zhu Bajie!"

"What I feel sorry for is my own money, why is it shameful?"

Wu Bushan said: "If you are willing to donate the 20 taels of silver and prepare a place for us to stay, it's not a matter, then how virtuous are you?"

"It's Lao Wang's business to be high-spirited and bright"

Guan Xiaoshu smiled and said: "I am definitely not at the same level as Lao Wang in terms of awareness."

Wang Qinian nodded and said: "Although I really want to be humble, what you said is just the truth. If I am more humble, it will appear that I am artificial, so... If you want to improve in the future, you can talk to me more, no After three days, it is guaranteed that your whole body will be sublimated from body to heart."

Wu Bushan gave them a blank look, looked at the situation in the village and asked: "Everything is arranged? After all, this place is only fifteen miles away from Mingzhou City. It would be too dangerous if someone notices it."

"Leave early in the morning. The horses are hiding in the woods three miles away. There are people guarding them, so it is considered to be leaving today. Who knows that you will only leave the city today!"

Guan Xiaoshu said with some dissatisfaction

"Before I left, the secret agent suddenly discovered something, and I stayed an extra day to confirm the news"

Wu Bushan said: "The news that Lao Wang came here earlier may be a trap. Because of the urgency of the search in the city, we have been staying at the Shunpeng Inn and did not go out. Only yesterday did we know that the 10,000+ Zhou troops stationed in the city had already left. At first I thought it was really going to attack Boling County, but after I sent someone to investigate their marching direction, I realized that there might be something strange about it...it's not heading towards Boling County at all, but due west..."

"Oops!"

Guan Xiaoshu frowned and said, "Could it be that Wang Pao planned to ambush and rescue the soldiers and horses of Boling County from the beginning?"

"We have to hurry!"

Guan Xiaoshu said: "Follow the official road, if you meet our soldiers and horses, stop them."

"you go"

Wu Bushan shook his head and said, "I can't go."

"why?"

Guan Xiaoshu said anxiously: "It's hard to get out, so you still want to go back?"

"go back!"

Wu Bushan nodded: "How can the people in our military inspector's office leave no one on the enemy's side before the battle? Even if I just set fire to the city when the army attacked the city, that's our military inspector's office." The people in the department didn't agree with what they should do, so they had to do it, and the face of the Military Inspection Department couldn't be lost!"

Guan Xiaoshu and Wang Qinian looked at each other, both of them were so shocked that they couldn't imagine that, in Wu Bushan's heart, the honor of the Military Inspection Office was really more important than his own life

"You can't let Fatty Wan know that you will laugh at me in the future because you are greedy for life and afraid of death"

Wu Bushan smiled: "Being ridiculed by that dead fat man, it's better to die."

……

……

"What is this?"

Wu Bushan took a piece of jade pendant that Guan Xiaoshu handed him, measured it carefully, and found that the carved pattern on the jade pendant was a bit special, it was a fish with wings, although the workmanship was not very fine, but it looked like this flying fish was lifelike

"I gave you this jade pendant to lend you my entire life. If you know about it in the future, I'm afraid I will be disabled if you don't kill me."

He took a deep breath, then looked at Wu Bushan and said solemnly and seriously: "The thing I want to tell you next is the biggest secret of the Military Inspection Department. Don’t get me wrong, and don’t forget that this card is mine, but I’m giving it to you now, if you don’t have enough secret agents in the city, or you are in a life-or-death crisis, you will use it.”

“This is Flying Fish”

He says

"Flying Fish? What is it for?"

Wu Bushan asked

"The flying dragon should be carved, but it should be avoided, so the carving is a flying fish..."

Guan Xiaoshu glanced at the jade pendant, smiled and said, "From now on, you are also a member of Dragon Secret Agent", .
