Chapter 37 The History of Yangzhou Thorns
Ye Saburo gently took a sip of the good oolong tea and was full of praise. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
When I was in Jiangyin County, I tasted the excellent oolong tea of the original county commander Yang Shunkai, and I only felt that the tea should only come from heaven, who knew that you were better. ”
"Actually, if I personally say it, I still like Biluochun, but this kind of tea is a tribute from Yelang Kingdom, and the taste is not the same as the tea in Jiangnan, so I have always cherished it. ”
"Oh, Yelang Country, but the Yelang Country of Qiandi?"
"Yes, exactly, this is something that came about with a long time. ”
Ye Sanlang nodded and said, "Let's talk about Liu Tingshi." ”
"Liu Zhao's goods, in fact, are just incompetent, relying on the relationship of the prince to become a thorn the year before last, before that, when Li Heng was not favored, he was just a county lieutenant, and he was in the middle and lower exams every year, so he was not promoted. But after Li Heng began to be favored the year before last, the officials hurriedly began to promote this nominal brother-in-law, but he himself was actually just a big straw bag. ”
I see, that's your assessment, but it's an important reference. What about Li Huaiyuan, the original long history?
"Li Changshi, this person is not easy to evaluate, because he is a relatively decent person, he is a typical nerd, he was on the list in the examination a few years ago, and he relied on Xiangguo's relationship to find a fat shortage in the history of the governor, otherwise how could the newcomer be promoted so quickly. He wanted to do things for the well-being of the people, but he was afraid and did not dare to offend anyone. A few days ago, Xiangguo seemed to be secretly instigating him to do something, and as a result, he went on the fold of looking for death. ”
"Li Linfu. Ye Sanlang said, this person played a very important role in this incident, many people are strange, Li Linfu has always hated Li Heng, how could he attack King Qing Li Brown this time, this is very unpredictable. Moreover, the eighteen kings he supported, Li Mao and Li Brown were brothers, how could he make such a move. Not to mention that Li Huaiyuan came up with it himself, he didn't have such courage himself.
It seems that after meeting this Sima, he will have to meet the boss of Yangzhou.
"Ye Yushi, but you are planning to meet Liu Zhao?"
Ye Saburo suddenly reacted, this guy is hiding so deeply, befriending him will definitely help him a lot.
"I have to ask Lu Sima for how to deal with it. ”
"In my opinion, I think you can pretend to be a local official and make contact with him first. ”
"Can this work? As a state assassin, it is impossible not to even know the officials under his rule. ”
"With Liu Zhao's person, it's really uncertain, but then again, Ye Yushi, as a person from the rivers and lakes before, should be very good at the art of disguise. ”
"I see, I just thought of a suitable person. ”
"Oh, the official under the rule?"
"Jiangyin County ordered Li Song. ”
"Li Song, how do I remember that he is the chief bookkeeper, and the county order is Yang Shunkai?"
"This is probably because the speed of news transmission is relatively slow, and it has not yet reached Lu Sima, when I went south, I took the waterway, and it happened that the water bandits were rampant, so I suppressed the water bandits in Xiben. ”
"What!" Lu Sima was startled, and his hands trembled.
"That group of water bandits, known as the wolves of the East China Sea, was killed by Ye Yushi, how many men and horses were dispatched?!" Lu Yongming was shocked in his heart, the water bandits have always been a big trouble in the coastal areas, and the government wants to suppress the bandits in their hearts, but where are the troops? Only let them run rampant, dare to be angry and dare not speak, at this moment to hear that the water bandits have been destroyed, my heart is surprised and happy.
"There are not many people, just a merchant ship of the Youzhou Chamber of Commerce. ”
Lu Yongming opened his mouth wide, and his bag was about to fall, he thought that it would take at least thousands of people to fight in the water to take down Xiben, but the result was unexpected.
He laughed dryly twice and said, "This must be an amazing legend, but what does this have to do with Jiangyin County?"
"The emperor's will is for me to solve the incident in Jiangnan, so I agreed with them when I got on the boat in Youzhou to go to Yangzhou, and it was just a chance to exterminate the water bandits, but I had to hand over more than 100 of them to the government, so I handed them over to the Jiangyin County Ya nearby. However, when we landed on the shore, we learned of the county order, and the county lieutenant and the county official actually thought that it was a water bandit attack, and left the people of the whole city to flee, making a big joke. ”
"Okay!" Lu Yongming gave a thumbs up, "That's how it should be, how can such a dog official be worthy of being the parent official of the people?!" I have the impression that Li Song is this person, almost every year the evaluation is in the middle and upper, originally he should have been promoted to the county order this year and next year, Ye Yushi, you can be regarded as executing it for him in advance. ”
In this way, I turned into Li Song, the commander of Jiangyin County, and pretended to negotiate with him about the extermination of the water bandits, and probed his truth. ”
After that, he learned some things about Yangzhou officialdom from Lu Yongming, and before going out, he performed the disguise technique of looking for Longmen that everyone would know, so that ordinary people couldn't see the difference between him and Li Song himself.
In front of a luxurious mansion in Xiaoshan Villa, Yangzhou, an ordinary-looking man knocked on the door in front of him.
"Who?" a deep voice sounded, and the head of a strong man poked out of the small door.
"Li Song, the official of Jiangyin County, has something important to report to Liu Tingshi, but he is not in the government, so he came to his house. ”
"Master is resting now, you can come back later. ”
Ye Saburo sighed lightly, turned around and left, returned to the Laifu Inn, and saw no one from Li Sihan, presumably he went to the street, he was bored alone, so he simply slept in the room all night.
Early the next morning, he came to Liu Zhao's house again, but this time it was empty, Liu Zhao went to the meeting, so he told the concierge about the inn where he lived, and went back.
Just arrived at the first floor of the inn, was about to order, only to hear the sound of cars and horses braking suddenly, the porter just now hurriedly ran in, and said in a panic: "Li County Order, the master has returned to the house, he is in a hurry to see you." ”
Ye Sanlang nodded, and followed him into the carriage of the Liu Mansion, he had already guessed what was going on, presumably Bai Lingfeng had already arrived in Suzhou Prison City with Xiben. It is impossible for Liu Zhao, the assassin of the next state, not to know such an important matter, although he doesn't know whose banquet he went to today, he must have learned about it from other people, and he never thought that Li Song would come to visit him, so he hurriedly sent the porter who knew him to call him.
With the whistle of the coachman, the carriage stopped in front of Liu's mansion, and the porter hurriedly led him in, and after passing through several corridors and halls, he came to a secluded room, which was Liu Zhao's bedroom or study.
"Please, the master is in the bedroom. After saying that, he left without looking back.
Ye Saburo knocked lightly on the door, and a man's voice sounded inside the door: "Come in." ”
He pushed the door in, and saw a slightly chubby middle-aged man holding a teacup in the middle of the chair, looking him up and down with his small eyes. There is a side room in Xunlongmen that is to know people, although Ye Sanlang has not learned this one, but he knows a little, from the first time he saw this Liu Zhao, he had no good impression at all.
