169. Officials and bandits

Li Pojun was sitting in the backyard with Su Dingfang and a few others, and after a hearty conversation, he only heard Zhao Yan say quite embarrassedly: "Your Highness, my family lives in Liudao Street in the west of the city, and there is nothing to do tonight, I, I want to go back to see A-Niang and my sister, and I hope Your Highness will agree." After that, he stood up and bowed deeply.

When Li Pojun heard this, he patted his head, "Look at my memory, my head is full of Wang Xiaorong's affairs, but I forgot about Brother Zhao's major affairs, but it doesn't matter if you go, there are brothers and Hanwa guards here, don't worry." After Li Pojun finished speaking sincerely, he said again: "Take ten yuan to Brother Zhao."

When Zhao Yan heard this, he was very moved, and waved his hand and said: "Your Highness, don't be like this, it is already a kindness to allow me to save my relatives during official duties, and I will never dare to accept gold and silver again."

Li Pojun took the silver and got up and stuffed it into Zhao Yan's hand without saying anything, and said in an unshirkable tone: "Take it, if you want to resign this king, you will throw it away, escort it all the way, there is a lot of hard work, don't shirk."

Seeing this, Zhao Yan also took it wordlessly, but kept this kindness in his heart.

said goodbye and left, just out of the backyard door, almost bumped into a hot girl, but the alertness formed by years of conquest made him jump away.

A few people looked at it, and it turned out to be the maid Xiaocui, "Xiaocui, but what's the matter?" ”

"Father, son, my lord is awake."

"What, Wu Sima woke up?" When Li Pojun and the others heard this, they were very excited, they were good to wake up, but they were afraid that they would not wake up.

Hurried all the way over, entered the inner room, made a notice, and pushed the door in.

I saw Wu Yanheng leaning on the side of the bed, drinking the decoction, and when he saw Li Pojun and others coming, they were about to get out of bed and salute, so they quickly stopped him, and let Wu Yanheng talk about rudeness.

"How does Mr. Wu feel?" Li Pojun sat on the edge of the bed eagerly and asked.

When Wu Yanheng heard this, his face was anxious, and he said straightforwardly: "Your Highness is so polite, you can't afford to be called a gentleman, and you are a subordinate official."

"Hey, I don't ask Mr. to learn, but if you look at the high righteousness, you can leave a name and pass it on through the ages."

"Uh...... His Royal Highness is serious, and Wu is embarrassed."

"Hehe, you don't have to be polite, I'm afraid it will be a joke if you continue to be polite, haha."

Su Dingfang had already seen a constipated expression on his face on the side, Nima, Your Highness, your good words are too awesome, and they are famous in history, and they are eternal, and the people who listened to me are embarrassed.

"How are you feeling now, can you still hold it up? I have a few questions that I have been wanting to ask, I wonder if it is convenient? Li Pojun also restrained his smile and asked.

When Wu Yanheng heard this, he was also full of spirits, and said directly: "Your Majesty is fine, Your Highness, please ask."

"Then why is Yuanzhou City closed in the city?"

"Hey, this is what Wang Xiaorong ordered, he is afraid that the people will escape, first, it will make a large number of people under the household, reduce taxes, etc., and even affect political performance, and second, he is also worried that there are too many displaced people, which will cause the court to be angry, so he wants to block the news."

"Damn, this Wang Xiaorong is so bold and dares to be so rampant, how come no one has impeached the officials of Yuanzhou, and no one has reacted like above?"

"Don't hide it from Your Highness, now most of the officials in Yuanzhou have been infiltrated by it, and a small number of people who are not satisfied with the following officials are also severely suppressed, and it is difficult to turn over, even if they are messengers, they must be searched when they go out of the city, but any accusation and report letter that is not conducive to Wang Xiaorong will not be able to get out."

"How much do you know about the Migang Mountain bandits in the west of the city?"

Li Pojun always felt that the bandits in this Migang Mountain were not simple, how could any bandits dare to gather fifty miles away from the state capital, I heard Zhao Yan say, although the Migang Mountain is a dangerous terrain, but it is outside the west avenue of the city, one is too close to the state capital, and the other is close to the avenue, it is a bright place, and it is not suitable for gathering Wuthering Mountains and forests at all.

Besides, there are only more than 200 people and horses, this bit of soldiers and horses is a yarn, and the officials of one or two counties can destroy him, why is Yuanzhou such an important town in the northwest, there are also several military governments stationed here, there is no shortage of sick people at all, and the soldiers are all soldiers in the northwest, many years of turmoil, but also many years of conquest, the combat power is high, but why is there no one to suppress the bandits.

You said that there is no Tao in this, as long as you are not a fool, you will definitely not believe it, so Li Pojun asked this question, who knows that this question really asked something.

When Wu Yanheng heard this, his face changed, and then he gritted his teeth and looked resentful, this Confucian disciple, an upright gentleman, was like a ruthless gangster at this time, with a murderous face.

After a long period of peace, Wu Yanheng held back his anger and said word by word: "That blind bear is supported by Wang Xiaorong, officials and bandits colluded, preyed on the common people, mutilated the villagers, and even secretly colluded in the city to tie up his opponents to be mutilated, I was lucky to escape this morning before I met His Highness."

When Li Pojun and Su Dingfang heard this, they were all shocked, this ...... This Wang Xiaorong, as a local parent official, has a history of assassination in a state, and he is actually raising bandits for profit, this is not raising Kou for self-respect, this is purely letting go of the bandits, but a bandit leader with remote command.

Although Li Pojun guessed in his heart that this blind bear might have some interest collusion with Wang Xiaorong, he didn't expect that this blind bear was Wang Xiaorong's person at all, and he was working for Wang Xiaorong.

"Then why didn't you say anything about raising bandits when you accused him of the crime?"

"Uh...... Your Highness, the bear blind man has more than 200 soldiers, all of them are outlaws, and they are also well-armoured, I, Your Highness only has more than 20 horsemen, I am afraid, lest I fall into danger of His Highness."

"Oh, hehe, Mr. Wu don't worry, and I won't hide it from you, my more than 20 brothers are the elite of the Xuanjia Army under the command of my father, and they can all be ten, and my safety is worry-free."

Li Pojun smiled and revealed some details, but Wu Yanheng was stunned for a while, as if he didn't understand why His Highness explained so much to him.

Li Pojun said again at this time: "Mr. Wu, since I have come to Yuanzhou City this time, I will definitely take care of this matter, and I must take care of it thoroughly."

When Wu Yanheng heard this, he was also very happy, after all, His Royal Highness had agreed three times, so he didn't have to bear so much on this matter.

He has now been forced to a dead end by Wang Xiaorong, Wang Xiaorong is now trying to kill him, or knock him down, the previous few times of various frame-ups, he was dodged, but the open gun is easy to dodge, the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, who can prevent the thief in a thousand days.

His risk to Li Pojun is a gamble, if this prince does not have the legendary sage, if he hears about this matter and ignores it, then he is basically finished, such as today, fortunately, he finally sees a little light, Wang Xiaorong, your dead end should have arrived.

Thinking of this, he was full of pride in his heart, and immediately said: "Your Highness has commanded, I will never shirk, I am not afraid of broken bones, but I want to bring down Wang Xiaorong."
