Zhang Bao opened the letter Cheng Maoye wrote to Ge Hong, the governor of Beihai County, and read it over.

Not only did he write down the recent actions of Zhang Bao and others, but he also wrote down the current military situation in Yunzhong County and Sanhe County in great detail.

Zhang Bao frowned.

He handed the letter to Hudugu.

Hu Dugu took a deep breath after reading it.

"Master, do you want me to deal with this person?"

"Now that the evidence is conclusive, I am not afraid of him denying it. Even if he is a brother, he will not be able to stay if he does such a thing."

Hu Dugu said calmly.

"It seems that a lot of our previous news must have been leaked."

"Is this Cheng Maoye the same group of people who came with Chen Dadao before?"

"In other words, he was actually from Beihai County a long time ago. There is nothing we can do about it. He works carefully first and his brothers follow behind."

"As for killing..."

"Maybe there's a better way."

"Let's leave this matter like this for now. Tell the people under my command to keep quiet and let me think about it."

Zhang Bao said to Hu Dugu.

Killing him is naturally very simple.

But it will be difficult to guarantee that there will be no other spies in the future.

It's better to take advantage of the situation and let Beihai County take some action.

Once used properly, it may be of great use.

Since Beihai County can arrange spies for their Sanhe County, there must be spies from several other counties. There is no guarantee that Beihai County will not attack them in the future.

You can never place your own safety on the kindness and luck of your enemies.

This is Zhang Bao's principle.

In Hehe County at this time.

Old He was playing chess with Qin Gou, the eunuch from the palace.

"Listening to what you said, the emperor's little life is too comfortable."

"His grandma's, we couldn't even eat before, but he only eats chicken tongue?"

"Where did the rest of the chicken go?"

Lao He listened to Qin Gou in front of him describing what was going on in the palace.

Shocked beyond measure.

"Throw it away!"

"No one else dares to eat the leftovers from the emperor's cooking. This is a rule set by Grand Sima."

"This...it seems like you are going to lose again, boss."

Qin Gou said with a smile.

"You little eunuch, are you so good at chess?"

"It must be a scam!"

"No more fun, no more fun!"

When Lao He saw that he was surrounded by young eunuchs again, he was very unhappy.

I have lost more than a dozen games this morning.

"Sir, the two squad leaders are here and say they have something important to report to you."

At this moment, the chief clerk from the Yamen came over.

"Team leader?"

"What's up?"

"Let them in!"

Lao He asked Qin Gou to go to the backyard quickly while sitting in the main hall.

After all, Qin Gou's current status is the Imperial Envoy, and it would not be appropriate to be with Lao He.

After a while, the two class leaders walked in.

"See my lord!"

The two of them saluted Lao He.

"What's up?"

"I'm busy!"

Lao He said impatiently.

After becoming the magistrate of this river valley county, Lao He euphemistically said that he was handling previous official duties and discussing things with the imperial envoy.

Stay away from those government officials, otherwise Mr. He, a big-mouthed man, will make mistakes if he talks too much.

It will be easier once people from Sanhe County arrive.

"grown ups!"

"The government officials below have never seen an imperial edict in their lives, so they specially begged us two to come and read the imperial edict and go back to see it."

"The two of us were thinking that although the imperial edict has arrived, the content has not been read out to me and others. Should we gather everyone together and ask the imperial envoy to read it out in public?"

Xu Shan, one of the squad leaders, asked.

"Um?"

"how?"

"Are you still worried that the imperial edict is false?"

Lao He raised his eyebrows and said.

"Don't dare!"

"It's really the people below who are urging us. Naturally, the two of us have no doubts at all."

Another class leader, He Zhu, was also talking.

But their expressions were definitely not what they said.

"OK!"

"Call everyone over here now, and I'll ask the imperial envoy for instructions to read out the imperial edict in public!"

Lao He waved his hand.

The two squad leaders went out immediately.

Seeing the two people leaving, Lao He jumped to the backyard as if his buttocks were on fire.

"It's broken, it's broken!"

"Something's going to happen!"

Lao He directly took Qin Gou out.

There was nothing he could do about Lao He agreeing just now. If he didn't agree, they would be even more suspicious.

"What's going on?!"

"Boss, don't scare me, I'm a coward!"

Qin Gou trembled all over when he saw Lao He's panic.

"Hurry up and put on all the clothes you were wearing before. They will all be here soon. Just hold up the clothes for me and then pretend to take out the imperial edict and read it out."

"When you're done reciting it, take it away quickly."

Lao He instructed.

"clear!"

"The Zhang family is very good at handling this kind of thing."

"By the way, where is the imperial edict?"

"Give it to me!"

Qin Gou stretched out his hand towards Lao He.

"What?"

"You asked me for it?"
