Chapter 140 Long live my emperor (27)
The county magistrate naturally knew something about the fact that Prince Xiqing was trying to win over Yang Su in secret, but Yang Su would naturally not tell the truth to the county magistrate.
On weekdays, he was loyal to the emperor in front of the county magistrate.
If Yang Su really surrendered to King Xiqing and intended to rebel, he, a county magistrate who was lower than the county magistrate, would have no choice but to follow Yang Su.
Now, Emperor Ning has sent the Transport Supervisor Chu Yu over here, he must be here to punish Yang Su!
Thinking about it again, the words the boy said to him...
The county magistrate's mind turned over and over, and cold sweat almost soaked through his clothes. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He said in a panic: "Sir, I know nothing about the matter between the county magistrate and the King of Xiqing!"
It doesn’t matter whether Yang Su is dead or alive!
He has to pick himself out first!
You can blame him for other things, but he really had no involvement in the collusion with King Xiqing!
He knew clearly that if this hat was successfully put on his head, not only would his head be destroyed, but his entire family would have to report to the King of Hell!
"Really?" The young man seemed a little unconvinced.
Seeing him so confident, the county magistrate became more convinced that they were sent by Emperor Ning to deal with Yang Su.
It's likely that the words Yang Su said to him before were deliberately told to Yang Su by Emperor Ning in order to let him relax his vigilance and prevent him from impulsively surrendering to King Xiqing.
Just think about it, you are just a county magistrate, a small official, thousands of miles away from Chaoge. Are you worthy of sending the legitimate son of a marquis to you to vent your anger?
The real purpose must be to punish Yang Su, so they searched Yang's house as soon as they arrived...
But he didn't understand the situation before, and wanted to punish Chu Yu for Yang Su!
Even though the person in front of him was just a transport supervisor, he was sent by Emperor Ning and he could not be offended under any circumstances.
The county magistrate made a bitter face and defended himself, "Sir, I am just an insignificant county magistrate. How could I have the guts to collude with the King of Xiqing and rebel? I don't even know what the King of Xiqing looks like!"
Of course Nan Yue knew that even if the county magistrate wanted to collude, the King of Xiqing would not look down on him.
She just wanted to scare him on purpose to lower his guard, and she only wanted to clear herself of suspicion.
Until the end, she had no doubt about the purpose of her coming to Qi County.
Did she say what she was doing there?
No.
He made it all up in his mind.
"Then, Yang Su secretly colluded with the King of Xiqing and intended to rebel. In your opinion, how should he be punished?" Nan Yue repeated the previous question.
There it is again.
The county magistrate knew that this was an answer he had to give. He gritted his teeth and said, "According to the law, three generations of male offspring should be executed! The rest of the family members should be demoted to slavery!"
Yang Cong struggled violently again, veins popped out on his forehead. He thought the county magistrate came to help him.
But I didn't expect...
Such words actually came out of his mouth!
His head was filled with alcohol and sex, so naturally he couldn't understand why this happened.
The county magistrate turned his head away and didn't look at Yang Cong, who had a ferocious expression.
He also has relatives, he has to protect himself.
"It seems that the county magistrate is very familiar with the laws of Daning." Nan Yue sighed.
She laughed, "Then let's do as the county magistrate says."
"As for all the charges against the county magistrate, let the county magistrate write them."
The county magistrate's heart suddenly sank, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. "This, this is inappropriate..."
The young man added in a deep voice, "After all, I will send someone to report the evidence to His Majesty."
The county magistrate did not dare to say anything more, and lowered his head and replied, "Yes."
……
It took Yang Su a long time to break through the layers of traps and finally enter the Huxiao Village.
I thought their sudden arrival would cause chaos in the bandit camp.
But when they arrived at Huxiao Village, they found that Gao Hu was waiting for them with his men...
The imagined scene did not exist at all. The bandits held their weapons tightly and were obviously prepared.
what happened?
Yang Su frowned and found something wrong.
But the traps along the way have exhausted his patience, and things that could have been solved quickly have not been done after so long.
He suppressed his anxiety again and said, "Kill!"
Maybe it was because we had been on the mountain for too long that they noticed...
Anyway, we must eliminate all the bandits in Huxiaozhai today!
The bandits fought with the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers had more people, but the traps along the way consumed a lot of their energy.
The mountain bandits had also been specially trained by Nan Yue, and their coordination and tacit understanding with each other were beyond the reach of the officers and soldiers.
It is a little difficult to kill them for the time being.
Gao Hu faced Yang Su.
Yang Su was once a subordinate of the Marquis of Yongding, and was considered a military general, so naturally he had some martial arts skills.
However, he has been sent to Qi County for many years and has not received regular training, so he is naturally weaker than before.
Gao Hu is younger and stronger than him. Although his martial arts are not as good as Yang Su's, he has great strength.
For a moment, the two of them couldn't tell who was the winner...
The blades collided, and Gao Hu suddenly said, "What the noble man said is indeed right, you will come today."
What noble person?
Yang Su felt a sharp pain in his palm. He knew he shouldn't be distracted now, but he was still stunned for a moment. "My dear? Did someone send you a message in advance?"
Gao Hu sneered and said nothing more.
Yang Su's face turned extremely ugly, and he felt like he had stepped into a huge trap...
While fighting with Gao Hu, he was thinking quickly in his mind...
At this moment, one of the bandits who were fighting was injured.
Gao Hu saw him with anger in his eyes, and asked, "Master Yang, do you know that although we are bandits, we never kill anyone in Tiger Howl Village? Why do you insist on forcing us to death?"
Never hurt anyone?
What a joke!
If they had not killed the wealthy businessman and caused problems in Changxing County, why would the county magistrate have ordered him to eliminate the bandits?
You know, before this, the county magistrate knew that he came from Chaoge and would not give him any orders.
Yang Su was about to speak, when suddenly he realized something...
and many more!
Was he tricked by someone?
A noble? A bandit?
The location of the Tiger Roar Village is so hard to find, besides him, there is only...
The person who told him knew it!
But since King Xiqing had sent him the message, why would he tell the bandits?
Could it be...
Yang Su's mind was no longer on the battle, and Gao Hu took advantage of his mistake to successfully put the blade on his neck...
Yang Su's face darkened, he had already figured out what had happened.
He is a person who thinks a lot and will hesitate for a long time before making a decision.
I don't completely trust the King of Xiqing...
Of course, he did not believe all of Gao Hu's one-sided statement.
Now he concluded that the King of Xiqing forced him to come here, and he must have secretly communicated with the bandit camp long ago.
If he succeeded in wiping out the bandit camp, King Xiqing would be a good man and give Qi County to them with both hands.
If he fails, so much the better.
The county magistrate must be angry because the bandit suppression failed, but Qi County is some distance away and he cannot arrange for anyone to come over for the time being.
King Xiqing could then take over his Qi County first...
Regardless of whether the matter succeeds or not, the benefits will all belong to King Xiqing.
Apart from King Xiqing, Yang Su couldn't think of anyone else who could calculate things so clearly.
