- When Zhao Hongyu left the water transport terminal with his troops, the government officials also cleared a blank area of ??about thirty meters near the besieged tavern in Yangzhou City.
At this time, the merchants on the left and right sides of the tavern had also hung up their door panels. Dozens of government officials had surrounded them both in front and behind, waiting for troops from the guard station to arrive.
Outside the government officials, many people gathered to watch the excitement.
??Everyone pointed at this place one after another and talked about it.
"Hey, what's going on?"
Why did the officials from the prefecture¡¯s Yamen surround a tavern?
"What do you know? I heard that there were some fierce pirates in the tavern. The government officials did not dare to rush in, so they had to surround the tavern.
????????????????????????????????????????????????
Yes, pirates.
These pirates were so cruel that they rushed into the magistrate's office in broad daylight and rescued their accomplices. But he still didn't run away, so he hid in this tavern.
Someone who knew the inside story whispered it to the people around him.
"These government officials are really useless. They don't even dare to deal with a few pirates, so they can only bully ordinary people like us."
After hearing this, some of the people who were onlookers complained in a low voice, and looked at the government officials with very contempt.
¡°Shhh, keep your voice down, don¡¯t let those government officials hear you.
They are like this. They are not good at catching thieves, but they are good at bullying us.
Isn¡¯t this it?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????
"But these desperate pirates are really stupid. Even if they hide in this tavern, they still won't be able to escape. They will definitely be caught in the end."
There were many discussions like this among the people watching from the outside.
The government officials have no time to pay attention to these people now. Now they are spending their days waiting for the people from the guard station to bring troops.
At this time, Chen Xiuchang, a member of the 100 households in the guardhouse, had already entered Yangzhou City with a hundred soldiers under his command, and arrived outside the Yamen of Yangzhou Prefecture.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Chen Xiuchang tightened the reins and stopped the skinny old horse under his crotch.
It can be seen from his mount that Chen Xiuchang, a man from a hundred households, is really not doing well.
"Let your master come out and answer!"
After Chen Xiuchang reined in his mount, he did not turn over and dismount. Instead, he sat on the horse with an air of arrogance and shouted at the magistrate's official who was standing outside.
The little official from the government office who was standing outside the door quickly ran in at a trot when he saw this situation.
After about ten minutes, the prefect Zhang Shoushan walked out surrounded by servants.
The prefect Zhang Shoushan is still a little scared, so he summoned his servants to cheer him up.
Those daring pirates even dared to break into their own government offices. God knows if they would assassinate themselves.
I have to say that the prefect considers issues quite comprehensively, especially when it comes to issues involving his own safety.
When Chen Xiuchang saw Zhang Shoushan coming to the door of the government office, he secretly laughed in his heart, because he could see from Zhang Shoushan's pale face that this was because the prefect, who always made trouble for them and didn't like them, was frightened. I almost wet my pants.
Ha ha!
I never thought that a dog like you would have such a day, it¡¯s really an eye-opener for God.
"Those pirates are real, why don't they kill you, a dog officer, with one blow?"
??????????????????????? If they kill you by doing this, that will be a very happy thing.
"It turns out to be Chen Baihu. If you don't go and catch the pirates quickly, why are you here at my prefect's Yamen?"
After arriving at the door, Zhang Shoushan saw that it was Chen Xiuchang from a hundred households. He immediately got excited and began to show off to Chen Xiuchang who was sitting on the horse.
Chen Xiuchang curled his lips, a look of disdain on his face.
The butler on Zhang Shoushan's side quietly tugged on his master's sleeve, and at the same time reminded his master in a low voice: "Master, it's not good to talk to a hundred households like this. If you want to arrest those strong men now, you have to rely on them." Where is Chen Baihu?"
Well!
Zhang Shoushan, who had just put on a show of official power, his expression suddenly froze after hearing the butler's words.
That¡¯s not what it is!
How come you are possessed by a demon?
Now I want to catch those pirates.But we still have to rely on Chen Xiuchang and his soldiers.
Although I usually don¡¯t think much of these poor military households, under the current situation, I really can¡¯t offend them.
"However, he couldn't let go of his arrogance when he was asked to talk to these rough people in a low voice.
You know, in normal times, I wouldn't even take a look at these people.
"Master Magistrate, let's stop talking. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are a lot of things going on in our health office. Who would have thought that such a big thing happened here, and you still need us men to come. Could it be that you, Magistrate, are here? Are the government officials here not doing anything? I heard that the pirates who broke into the prefect's government office were only five people. There are at least a hundred or so people in your government office? Why, you can't even deal with such a strong man? No?"
Chen Xiu¡¯s long words, which contained a gun and a stick, made the prefect Zhang Shoushan standing at the door look very unhappy.
¡°Grandma¡¯s, a small household, actually started to tremble with me.
No, I have to endure it!
Now we have to rely on their strength to solve this troublesome matter.
Just when Zhang Shoushan was about to reply, he suddenly thought of the trouble at hand, so he quickly suppressed the anger in his heart.
At this time, a soldier dressed as a guard emerged from a small alley and trotted to Chen Xiuchang's mount. Chen Xiuchang leaned down, and the soldier said something into his ear.
Following the soldier¡¯s words, Chen Xiuchang¡¯s expression became brighter.
"My lord, I have inquired about it. My cousin works in the Yamen. So he is very clear about what this dog official did, so he told me the ins and outs of this matter."
"Oh, tell me, what's going on? Why did Zhang Shoushan, a bad official, provoke pirates?" Chen Xiuchang ignored the prefect standing under the gate of the Yamen, and instead went with his soldiers They started talking quietly. "We in Yangzhou are not offshore, so the presence of pirates is a bit unusual."
Chen Xiuchang is not the kind of person who is uneducated and has no skills. He has always been full of doubts about what happened in Yangzhou City.
First of all, Yangzhou is not offshore, so how could pirates appear?
" Moreover, before leaving, the servants who came to request the guards to send troops solemnly reminded themselves that there was a man named Wang Qingshan among the pirates, and he must be handed over to the prefect.
Who is this Wang Qingshan?
Why is he so important to the prefect?
A series of doubts made Chen Xiuchang feel that this matter must not be simple.
The prefect Zhang Shoushan¡¯s temperament of not being able to afford early opportunities is impossible for him to value a person so highly, especially when the other person is a pirate.
Maybe, there is something in this that everyone doesn¡¯t know.
Therefore, Chen Xiuchang asked a military household under his jurisdiction to go to the city in advance to inquire about the news.
¡°That¡¯s the soldier who just ran out of the alley.
This soldier had a distant relative who worked in the government office, so he quickly found out the truth of the matter.
"That guy named Wang Qingshan is a pirate. The reason why this dog officer values ??him so much is because he wants to squeeze out oil and water from him. When he caught Wang Qingshan, he took the money from him More than a thousand taels of silver were found, and the dog officer believed that this guy must have a lot of silver"
In this way, Chen Xiuchang knew Zhang Shoushan's plan clearly.
I am tender to your mother!
After listening to the soldier's story, Chen Xiuchang cursed secretly in his heart.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of northwest wind and the brothers, you are here to get fat and drink, not only to earn money.
This is so unfair!
????????????????????????? Originally, you, a dog official, wanted to be alone, but it was not impossible to imagine that Wang Qingshan had a fierce accomplice, so now you are in trouble.
hey-hey!
Since I¡¯m here, nothing will happen to you Zhang Shoushan.
"Besides, if a magistrate's office allows pirates to invade, you, the prefect, have neglected your duty.
This time, I want you to shed your skin even if you don¡¯t die.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiuchang waved his hand and asked the soldiers to return to the team. Then he sat on the horse and straightened up, and then looked at the prefect Zhang Shoushan who was standing at the gate of the Yamen.
what 's wrong?
Where were the two of you talking about just now?
Why is this ChenThe slender look looking at him seemed a bit amusing.
After meeting Chen Xiuchang¡¯s gaze, Zhang Shoushan¡¯s heart trembled.
He could feel something extraordinary from the other person's eyes, and this feeling made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Prefect, originally this matter was not under the jurisdiction of our guards. But the prefect couldn't solve it, so we let our guards take the lead, right?"
What is this nonsense?
When Zhang Shoushan heard this, his expression immediately changed.
It¡¯s really hard for me to answer this. If you say ¡®yes¡¯, you¡¯ll leave the other party with something to say. If you say ¡®no¡¯, the other party will turn around and leave you to handle the matter yourself, which will make you blind.
If you can handle it yourself, why would you ask someone to come to them?
"It's because the government officials can't count on them that they call the guards to send troops."
It¡¯s grandma¡¯s, it seems like she¡¯s going to bleed heavily this time.
Zhang Shoushan is not a fool either!
He knew very well what this hundred households wanted.
What he wants is not his answer at all, but some real benefits.
What I said just now is just a reminder to myself, it depends on myself to know what I am interested in from time to time.
"Let's stop chatting and make an offer!"
As soon as the prefect Zhang Shoushan opened his mouth, he said that he was doing it as if he were a businessman, which immediately made him look several levels lower.
"However, Chen Xiuchang from the Hundred Households didn't mind at all, because the prefect heard the key confidant.
Chen Xiuchang stretched out a finger: "It's the Chinese New Year here, and brothers' money is very tight. Please give me this number!"
After seeing Chen Xiu¡¯s long finger, the prefect trembled all over.
Mother!
How dare you ask for the benefit of one hundred taels of silver!
"However, the prefect Zhang Shoushan still underestimated our hundreds of households. One hundred taels of silver is not enough."
What they want is one thousand taels of silver (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
