Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Chapter 42: Land Master

Xu Zizhen never liked to read books in his previous life, but at least he knew some stories. Among them was the incident in the late Northern Song Dynasty. In order to flatter the Kingdom of Jin, a treacherous official sent a lot of beauties to the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin. The Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin I also especially like Jiangnan beauties. At that time, this incident aroused complaints from the people and the people were raging. It was also a famous scandal in history.

By the way, that treacherous official seems to be a prime minister, but he forgot his name.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became angry, gritted his teeth and said: "This bastard is inhumane, it's a good thing he's still a fucking prime minister!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he immediately came to his senses, and his heart skipped a beat: It's broken!

Sure enough, Prefect Wen narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Prime Minister?"

Xu Zizhen was tongue-tied, thoughts running in his head like lightning, he quickly found the words to explain himself, and held back a long laugh: "I... I just guessed."

If Governor Wen gave him a meaningful look, he smiled slightly and said, "It is a felony to slander an official of the court, be careful!"

"Yes yes yes..." Xu Zizhen didn't dare to say anything, he hurriedly responded.

Prefect Wen paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "It will take half a month at the fastest to get from Suzhou to the territory of the Kingdom of Jin, and the deadline for 'that person' from the Kingdom of Jin this time is the first day of September."

"The first day of September?" Xu Zizhen said in amazement, "Doesn't that mean that they only have three or five days to catch the beauties from Jiangnan? What do you want me to do when you come here? Find out who they are?"

Governor Wen shook his head: "How can it be so easy? Suzhou City is not big, but it is not small. Where can you find them?" It's not for this reason that I came here, at noon today, Taihu water bandits robbed three fishing villages outside Dongzhu Town."

Xu Zizhen was taken aback, Wen Zhifu worked hard to rule, how could there be water bandits under his rule?

Prefect Wen seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said: "The waters of Taihu Lake are extremely vast, and there are many waterways and countless small islands. If the water bandits really want to hide, they will send out all the troops in the south of the Yangtze River to search for them for a month. Nothing comes out."

I rely on, guerrillas!Just as Xu Zizhen was about to say something, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "No, isn't this the off-season for fishing? Fishermen are all tightening their belts to live. What are they doing at this time?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly realized: "Could it be that 'that person' specially invited those water bandits to cause trouble for you? To save you from devoting all your manpower to catch those bandits who robbed people?"

A flash of admiration flashed in Wen Zhifu's eyes, and he said with a smile, "Zizhen and I thought of going together."

Xu Zizhen stood up abruptly: "My lord, what do you want me to do? Just say it."

Prefect Wen said word by word: "This government wants you to go to the Taihu water bandits tomorrow to make sure that this matter was not done by them."

Xu Zizhen was suddenly dumbfounded: "My lord, didn't you say that those water bandits are very hard to find? I... Where can I find them?"

Prefect Wen smiled: "This government believes that you can find your own way."

……

Xu Zizhen left the inner hall full of depression, still wondering why the prefect Wen had so much confidence in him, why should he believe that he could find him when tens of thousands of troops couldn't find him?I'm not a god of land!

Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea, Master of the Land?Isn't Laohua the same as the land master?Apart from Lei Butou, who else in Suzhou has more headshots and more news?Thinking of this, he didn't care about eating dinner, so he walked towards the door.

Master Hua has become bigger now and has become the only gangster leader in Suzhou City, but he still stays at the Lucky Casino every night, and Xu Zizhen finds him easily.

After several incidents, Master Hua is now 100% obedient and respectful to Xu Zizhen. When he saw him coming to him, he immediately took him into a clean room in the gambling house, made him tea and served snacks with his own hands, and Xu Zizhen also Don't be polite, just get straight to the point.

"Taihu water bandits?" Master Hua was obviously stunned for a moment, "Brother, why are you looking for them? They are not easy to mess with."

Xu Zizhen glared at him: "I don't want to trouble them, so what's wrong with them? Just tell me if you know."

Master Hua laughed dryly, turned his head and shouted to the door: "Get He Liangliang to me!"

It didn't take long for a thin and short young man to grope into the room, his eyes flickering and shrinking, Master Hua stared at him, and whispered to Xu Zizhen: "Brother, this kid's name is He Liangliang, his My brother-in-law is from the Taihu Water Village, if you have any questions, just ask him directly... It's just that this kid is timid, you're laughing at me."

Xu Zizhen waved to He Liangliang with a smile: "Come and talk."

He Liangliang seemed a little scared, and walked over with a smile: "Brother."

Hua Ye added another sentence at this time: "Oh, by the way, big brother, this kid found the place I found in Loumen last time."

Xu Zizhen suddenly realized that it really depended on this kid to talk about the last time, otherwise he would not have known that everyone was smuggled away. Thinking of this, he patted He Liangliang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You worked hard last time." Well, I came here in a hurry this time and didn't bring anything with me, so I'll give you a thank you gift next time."

He Liangliang was immediately flattered, waved his hands again and again and said: "No, no, don't dare, the big brother's business is the villain's business, how dare you ask for any thank you gift?"

Master Hua kicked it over with a smile, and threw the ingot of silver to him: "Brother, I'll take it if you give it to you. Don't be so fucking polite. Here, I won't worry about it. I'll give it to you first."

He took the money in twos and let Master Hua kick his ass lightly, and smiled at Xu Zizhen: "Thank you, big brother. I don't know why big brother is looking for a villain?"

With a smile on his face, Xu Zizhen tried his best to appear amiable, and asked, "I heard that you know Taihu Water Village, right?"

The smile on He Liangliang's face froze immediately, and Master Hua kicked him in time: "Brother is not an outsider, just say it, I'm afraid of a bird!"

"This..." He Liangliang crossed his fingers together, looking extremely embarrassed, "Brother, this villain in the Taihu Water Village knows people, but, but their rules are too big, I can't tell."

Xu Zizhen became curious and asked, "Oh? Why are you so disciplined?"

He Liangliang smiled wryly and said: "To tell the truth, brother-in-law, the villain's brother-in-law is a leader in the village. It stands to reason that the villain should follow my brother-in-law to live on the water, but... But the rules in the village are that you can't steal it, So my brother-in-law didn't take me."

"Can you rob but not steal? Ha!" Xu Zizhen laughed, "What's the difference between a bandit and a thief? They are interesting."

He Liangliang suddenly looked serious, and said seriously: "Brother, although this village is known as water bandits, it never robs the people. They only rely on collecting some fishing protection fees on weekdays. . " As he spoke, he glanced at Master Hua, "It's just like...just like big brother."

Xu Zizhen became more and more curious: "Oh? Never rob people? Really?"

He Erliang nodded and said: "That's true. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people by the Taihu Lake." Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and whispered to Xu Zizhen's ear, "It is said that the owner of the water village was originally an officer and soldier. Dissatisfied with being a courtier, he turned to a bandit."

Hearing what He Liangliang said so seriously, Xu Zizhen became more and more convinced that the water bandit incident this time was committed by others in their name to distract the prefect Wen. He pondered for a moment and said: " Two or two, I want to... call on that village master tomorrow, can you introduce me?"

"This..." He Erliang was taken aback, but the look in Xu Zizhen's eyes didn't seem to be joking, so he hesitated for a while and said, "I believe in big brother, but if the village master doesn't see you, the villain can't guarantee it."

Xu Zizhen smiled slightly: "You pass on the message for me, saying that if you don't see me, then he will be blamed for the crime of looting the people this time."
