Chapter 181 Enter Xinghua City
As night fell, the magistrate government lit up the magnificent and gorgeous lanterns as usual. In the study, Chu Yuan waved his hand an irritably and kicked out the little concubine with soup for the night snack.
A little dissatisfied, but when did she see Chu Yuan so angry? Even if he was spoiled by his unruly nature, he could only pouted and walk out with his sleeves.
The fat hand swept the white jade bowl on the table to the ground, and happened to give way to the little man who hurried into the room. However, he was afraid of getting angry. He quickly said to inquire about the news, "Your Excellency, the villain has figured it out. Lin Yuanguo really didn't catch those people according to the adult's instructions. On the contrary, he is eating wine and vegetables in Zhang Zanzi's restaurant at this moment.
"Lin Weiyin is really good at it and doesn't pay attention to this official!"
Hearing the words, Chu Yuan's white and fat face was flushed red, and his body trembled with anger. Seeing this situation, the little man quickly swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
But this look happened to fall into Chu Yuan's eyes. The latter stretched out his finger and pointed to his face, "Is there anything else to hide from me? Why don't you tell me quickly!"
He stammered, and the little man said the rest of the words. The people in the restaurant were far more than Lin Yuan. Most of the locals in southern Fujian who were usually suppressed by Chu Yuan and were ordinary officials in Xinghua City.
Hearing this, Chu Yuan was still staying in the room. He quickly ordered with an iron blue face, "Go and invite the three gentlemen quickly, and let Chen Tong and them come to this government."
The three gentlemen are the masters left for him by Lord Qian of Fuzhou. It is precisely because of them that Lin Yuan has some scruples and obediently obeyed.
Chen and the same person are the head of Xinghua City. Although the official position is under Lin Yuan, with his help, he has pulled the defenders in the city under his command, and has long been empty of Lin Yuan.
"You don't have to go. I brought it to you."
Just as the little boy was about to take the order, a low voice came from the door of the house. In a while, he saw the little man staggering and falling to the ground, his eyes were full of fear.
"Pout..."
Several groups of things rolled into the study. When he saw it clearly, Chu Yuan was also scared out of courage. It turned out to be the head. They were all the people he just said. The blood was accompanied by the frightened expression, which made his legs soften, and he retreated back several steps until he hit the table.
More than a dozen figures came in, and the leader was expressionless. There was a person around him who knew Chu Yuan. The huge mace had frightened him many times.
"Dog officer, you help Zhou to abuse, but it's time to kill you!"
This low shout made Chu Yuan completely lose his mind. In a panic, he knelt on the ground and said, "Good men, spare my life, spare my life. There is gold and silver in my family. As long as I can spare the life of the villain, it's all belongs to you."
But Xiao Muchun didn't let him say more. He stepped forward and scratched a virtual shadow with a thorn in his hand. Chu Yuan, who was crying, immediately covered his neck and fell to the ground.
"It's done. It's time to go back."
Looking at the blood on the ground, Guo Huai frowned slightly and seemed to be a little unhappy. He turned around and left first, but Zhu Li was extremely happy. He smashed the room fiercely with the mace, and then left behind Xiao Muchun and the others.
The next day, the people who woke up in their sleep began a new day's life as usual, but saw a notice in the streets and alleys, which listed 20 crimes of Chu Yuan, the governor of Xinghua City, and said that he had been executed.
In the future, the transshipment envoy sent by the imperial court in Xinghua City will temporarily replace the magistrate. Starting today, the injustice will be retrial and the harsh and miscellaneous taxes will be reduced. Seeing this, all the onlookers will clap their hands and cheer up.
After killing Kong Youli yesterday, some people began to be curious about this transshipment, but today, when they saw these three words, they couldn't help talking about it. For a while, Yang Yanzhao, who had not yet appeared, had become the focus of discussion after tea money and dinner.
In the magistrate's government, Chu Yuan's family was sent away by Yang Yanzhao. In the future, he will be the talker of Xinghua City, and naturally he has moved to the inner courtyard of this government office.
Looking at the eaves and pavilions in it, although it is not made by Zhu Yanyu, it is also extremely magnificent, and there are rockery and flowing water. This flavor is clearly in front of the jade that should be found in the Central Plains, with green willows and wee silk.
With the momentum of thunder, he took over Xinghua City and beat all the remaining parties of Chuyuan. On top of the appointment, they all promoted Lin Yuan and other people who had been suppressed before. For a while, it did not cause much fluctuation.
The way for Fujian people to govern Fujian is the way that Yang Yanzhao thought about it for a long time. After all, his foundation has not been laid down, and now he still needs to rely on these people. As long as he grasps the direction in the overall situation and does something beneficial to the land of southern Fujian, they will not oppose it.
The wrong case caused by Chu Yuan was handed over to Du Feng and others. Yang Yanzhao rubbed his dizzy head and walked out. He happened to see Xiao Muchun, who looked happy, coming from a distance.
Seeing him, the latter accelerated his pace, stepped forward and lowered his voice, "Insector, brothers have found good things."
"So happy, Brother Xiao, have you picked up the treasure?"
"Hey hey, it was really found by the instructor. Several subordinates found a secret room in this house, which was full of gold, silver and jewelry, and the number was frightening."
Hearing the words, Yang Yanzhao is energetic. He dares to ask what kind of money is the fastest in the world. Don't think about it. It must be a raid. Now that he has cleaned up Chu Yuan, how can he forget the money he has collected for many years?
Following Xiao Muchun, he came to the study. Chu Yuan was killed here yesterday, and Yang Yanzhao moved in again. Several members of the poisonous scorpion began to clean up, but they didn't expect to find the secret room behind the bookshelf.
Seeing Yang Yanzhao coming in, the guarding poisonous scorpion members quickly turned aside. Xiao Muchun explained, "This Chu Yuan is also a rare person in a hundred years. There are not many books on the shelf, and the dust is scattered. Only this "Lengyan Jing" is extremely clean around, and my subordinates took it out curiously. Come on, I saw this small organ.
After saying that, Xiao Muchun took away the Buddhist scriptures and immediately saw the disk blocked behind him. After turning, the bookshelf creaked, and then moved away, revealing a secret room.
Dozens of copper oil lamps are burning on the walls on both sides of the secret room, illuminating the square room, but what is more dazzling is the random stack of gold and silver treasures.
Seeing this, Yang Yanzhao couldn't help laughing, and then turned his head to Xiao Muchun and said, "Brother Xiao, don't mention this matter to others. Keep this money for future needs."
"I understand."
Out of the secret room, perhaps because of these unexpected wealth, Yang Yanzhao's mood was much more comfortable. Luo's woman took the medicine box to the city to be a wanderer. Bamei and Paifeng naturally followed, and there was less noise in her ear.
However, Guo Huai has a headache. Since the assassination last night, Zhu Li has been pestering him to worship his teacher. Both of them are naturally a little confused. One is thinking about the rules and dares not accept apprentices at will, and the other is obsessed.
In the end, Guo Huai could only avoid Zhu Li and go out with Luo's daughter, but not long after, Zhu Li, who heard the news, also hurried out to find him, and thought it would be lively again.
Relying on the red pillars of the eaves and looking at the red flowers and grass in the courtyard, Yang Yanzhao couldn't help meditating. Xinghua City was in his hands, but looking at the whole southern Fujian, he was just a tip of the iceberg. In less than two days, when the news reached Fuzhou, the money would definitely be annoyed.
In his heart, he really wants to clean up Qian Bai and others. In this way, he can put the whole Fujian Road in his hands. At that time, he can also let go of his hands and feet to innovate the old things and think of ways to make money.
However, this money has been in southern Fujian for decades. It has long been deeply rooted and hastily taken action. Although I have two good brothers, Xu Shaoyang and Guo Huai, do you know that there are no masters around him?
The most important thing is to act rashly and hit it with one blow. If the snake is not killed, there must be someone in the court. When you sue the official, even if he has the oracle of 'cheap', he will suffer a lot of consequences.
Obviously, Qian Bai's life is much more expensive than Chu Yuanjin.
My mind is very complicated. For a long time, I still can't think of a solution. I can only shake my head and sigh that the soldiers come to cover the water. Let's dismantle it.
At sunset, Luo's women and others returned to the house, with a little depressed on their faces. The eighth sister was even more indignant and dissatisfied. It turned out that they were not appreciate the free treatment, and they were rejected thousands of miles away, while those pagan evils were regarded as guests. Of course, the three people who had seen burning people with fire were unbelievable, and there were also Some depression can't be opened.
These witch religion have been in southern Fujian for a long time. It's not a day's cold to freeze three feet. If you want to get rid of them, it's not overnight. It seems that the burden on your shoulders will still be very heavy in the future.
After three or four days in a row, Xinghua City has also entered the formality again. Yang Yanzhao's series of policies to benefit the people have made the people of the city grateful, but their prestige has improved a lot invisibly.
There has been no movement in Fuzhou City for the time being. It is precisely because of this that Yang Yanzhao's mood is getting heavier and heavier. After all, it is calm, which is often the eve of the storm.
Looking at the documents sorted out by Du Feng and others in the government, it was a good thing that the people who gave him money for nothing included tax and execution. The review of this unjust case was also fast. In a few days, more than half of the prison was empty.
Looking at the strange reasons for the final case in the prison documents, Yang Yanzhao suddenly cried and laughed at Chu Yuan. Unexpectedly, even Zhang Jiasheng's girl surnamed Zhang could be found guilty, which is also a strange case since ancient times.
Then I turned over a few pages, but I saw another paragraph of text, which seemed to be a little different from others. When I looked carefully, it was the disappearance of some women.
In the past few decades, there have been more than 100 women who disappeared in Xinghua City for no reason, and Feng Lun was originally the county seat of Fuzhou, so it also happened in several counties in Fuzhou in the last sentence.
The woman's status is humble. Even if she is missing, it will not cause an uproar, so all places can't deal with this matter. However, according to Feng Lun's words, I'm afraid it has something to do with the witchcraft cult in Fujian.
I was about to put this prison document aside and look at other taxes and so on, but my eyes couldn't help scanning the page just now, and I was shocked.
"The missing person is probably praying for the blessing, and the Huajian faction is also said to be women. I'm afraid it must be involved in the reason."
The words are a little implicit. It is estimated that Feng Lun still doesn't know Yang Yanzhao's character. If he comes up rashly, he is worried about the unhappiness of the transshipment, but if he doesn't say it, he feels uneasy.
But at present, Yang Yanzhao has no intention to think about Feng Lun's thoughts, because today, Luo's daughter and Ba Mei and Pai Feng went to the Huagu Temple outside the city to pray for blessings with other women in the city.
Although accompanied by Xiao Muchun and others, the other party is a witch sect with many tricks. At present, it is already noon, but he has not seen a figure. Thinking of this, Yang Yanzhao can't sit still. He quickly strode up and went to find Guo Huai.
