The next morning, after Wang Xian washed up, he invited Wu Wei to have breakfast with him.
Wu Wei came after a while, and his eyes were bloodshot and he looked haggard, as if he hadn't slept all night.
"Why, can't you sleep?" Wang Xian asked him to sit down and served him a bowl of porridge himself. "Eat some food and go back and catch up on your sleep."
"No need," Wu Wei lowered his head and said, "I can handle it..." He raised his head, rubbed his face vigorously and said, "Didn't you say, sir, that rescuing disasters is like putting out fires? Please assign tasks."
"Uh..." Wang Xian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Wu Weidao movedly: "Little Fatty, are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy." Wu Wei whispered: "It's not just adults who have brotherhood, I also have it." He paused and said, "Since you are in danger, you won't leave even if you drive me away."
"Why bother..." Wang Xian whispered. "Pujiang County has the first one in the south of the Yangtze River. I can still do it without you."
"At least if I stay, I can protect your life." Wu Wei said calmly. "Your Majesty knows that. I have made up my mind and will not waver again."
"Little Fatty." Wang Xian was so moved that he choked up. He held his chubby but powerful hand and said, "I, Wang Xian, will never let you down."
"Sir, you are too partial. We didn't even say we were leaving." Shuai Hui protested dissatisfied: "Didn't they say that two brothers in the same life must be born in the same quilt and die in the same coffin?"
"Pervert..." Erhei muttered, "I won't share the same bed with you even if I die."
"Hey, what's wrong?" Shuai Hui said angrily.
"Haha, of course that's not right." The haze in Wang Xian's heart was swept away, and he laughed loudly: "This is used to describe a couple."
"I see," Shuai Hui said angrily, "That bastard Zheng Liu, how dare you tease me?"
"Maybe he is really interested in you." Erhei grinned.
"Okay, let's be serious." Wang Xian said seriously: "Little Fatty, when you were in Fuyang, you were responsible for disaster relief. Now continue to shoulder this errand." After a pause, he said: "I won't let you work in the Yamen either.
You're looking for a job, even if I give you a household secretary, you still won't be able to suppress the local gangsters in Pujiang, so you might as well appear as my spokesperson."
"Yes." Wu Wei nodded in agreement.
Wang Xian is known to know people well and make good use of them. In addition to Wang Xian personally overseeing the disaster relief in Fuyang County at the beginning, Wu Wei was responsible for most of the following half year. Therefore, his arrival can greatly share the tedious affairs for Wang Xian.
, allowing him to focus his energy on important areas.
For example, to persuade Miss Lingxiao to agree to Mr. Wu Que’s date invitation...
It is said that since he lived across from the Yamen, the Wuque Master Wei Wuque has been coming to Lingxiao's house every day, rain or shine, either to send flowers to Lingxiao or to write poems to her. Although he was often beaten with bruises and swollen face, the Wuque Master was never discouraged.
Wipe away the nosebleed and it will reappear on time the next day.
Even Wang Xian was so moved by his perseverance that he persuaded Lingxiao for him: "Let's go out for a walk with him. Walking in the cold countryside is really a gift of winter in the south of the Yangtze River... It's rare for me to say such poetic words.
For the sake of face, just agree."
Ling Xiao was like an angry bird, shaking his head vigorously and saying: "If you push me again, I will beat you."
"Sister, you'd better go." Even Young Master Xianyun, who loves his sister the most, persuaded her: "Don't worry, I will go with you."
"You..." Lingxiao was not angry now. He looked at the two of them strangely and said, "What kind of medicine did you buy in the gourd?"
"Antidote." Young Master Xianyun said calmly.
Ling Xiao rolled her eyes at him and looked at Wang Xian. She knew that Xiao Xianzi would definitely give a satisfactory answer. "Actually, we are fishing." Wang Xian lived up to his expectations and paused: "Based on the situation of missing persons over the years
, it is not difficult to speculate that these people may have accidentally discovered the secret of that person's existence, or they may have just bumped into that person once and were silenced by that person's guards."
"So vicious." Lingxiao's brain structure is indeed different from ordinary people, and the places he focuses on are different from others.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Xianyun said lightly: "If it weren't for this, that person wouldn't have been hiding in Pujiang for many years without any news." Yes, so far, whether it is the imperial court, Mingjiao, or even Wang Xian,
Everything about that person's presence in Pujiang is just speculation. They can't even guarantee that this person must be in Pujiang.
"Now, those refugees are scattered in various townships in the county, including Zhengzhai Town. There are tens of thousands of victims." Wang Xian continued: "And every family has to free up their houses to accommodate the victims. You
Do you know what this means?"
"They are going to scold you to death." Ling Xiao said, blinking a pair of big black and bright eyes.
"Haha, that's not the point..." Wang Xian smiled bitterly and said: "The point is that in densely populated places, there is no hiding place for that person." Reputation is a double-edged sword. Sometimes, being famous is burdened by it.
You have to be led by others... For example, the Zheng family, the first family in Jiangnan with the unparalleled reputation of filial piety and brotherhood, even though they did not want to see the victims enter the country, they still opened a porridge factory to provide disaster relief as soon as possible.
And the porridge is so thick that you can stand up your chopsticks.
But this is not the point, because if giving porridge can solve the problem, it will be a direct meal, and the Zheng family will be happy to do so. The point is that the confusion and resettlement will cost the old man's life. Even though Mr. Zheng is very cunning, the government can only
He ordered every household to vacate a room obediently, and his own family set an example by freeing up the first three rooms for the victims to live in, and no rent was required. The Zheng family was the first family in Jiangnan. How could they be so embarrassed not to vacate their house? How could they be so embarrassed to talk to the victims?
Do you need money? In the end, the number of victims resettled in Zhengzhai Town was more than twice that of other towns...
The entire Zhengzhai Town, and even all the counties, towns and villages, are no longer on guard against the refugees. How can there be a hiding place for that person?
If he had not left Pujiang County, the man could only hide in the countryside and mountains. The vast mountains of Pujiang were his last refuge, and the news he received from Zheng Hui made Wang Xian certain that the man had not left. Yes.
, Zheng Hui has been secretly arrested by Wang Xian, and this is also thanks to the Zheng Wu family who was bewitched by Wang Xian... This little lady whose maiden name is Xiu'er has no idea what kind of responsibility her grandfather and grandfather are carrying.
The relationship is huge. The deep-rooted patriarchal mentality of the Zheng family has completely excluded her from the core secrets. Therefore, in her heart, she only wants to find out the truth.
Of course Zheng Xiuer also had concerns, that is, if Zheng Hui was handed over, it might affect the Zheng family's reputation. But she was deceived by Wang Xian's smooth tongue. She believed that the government would not pursue the matter again. Wang Dianshi just
She just wanted to find out the truth and solve the mystery of her husband's death. So she secretly reported Zheng Hui's whereabouts to Wang Xian with her personal maid.
Although Zheng Hui lived in seclusion and could not be found by the government, in the eyes of his relatives who lived in the same household, his whereabouts were no secret. Zheng Xiuer discovered that although this guy was ordered to be grounded, he was actually restless and would appear every seven days.
Sneak out while it's dark and won't come back until dawn.
With this clue, Xianyun, a bold and talented man, visited Zheng Zhai Town alone at night on the day when Zheng Hui should sneak out of the house again. At midnight, he saw a dark shadow coming out of Zheng's house, and he drove around the familiar road.
After the night patrol, we left the town and boarded a small boat waiting by the creek at the entrance of the town.
Xianyun was overjoyed. When the black figure got on the boat, the boat slowly sailed away from the shore. He quietly entered the water, dived to the bottom of the boat like a fish, and stuck a piece of dough-like thing on the side of the boat above the waterline.
Then he sneaked back quietly. After landing, Xianyun galloped several miles away without touching the ground... There, in the name of catching smuggled salt dealers, Wang Xian temporarily assembled more than a hundred archers that night, divided into five.
A fast boat went to pick up Xianyun. The two agreed that if they encountered danger, Xianyun would release fireworks, and Wang Xian led his men to rescue. It was already the fourth watch, but there was no movement at all, which made Wang Xian
Xian's heart was in his throat.
Suddenly, Lingxiao whispered: "My brother is back."
Wang Xian followed the direction she pointed, but saw nothing in the dark. But after a while, Xianyun, covered in sweat, walked out of the darkness, breathing still steadily and telling him what had happened. Wang Xian was overjoyed and ordered his men to open the door.
The boat went down the river and headed straight for the small boat. However, the river was wide, the water network was crisscrossed, and there were patches of reeds. Finding a small boat in the vast darkness was no easier than finding a needle in a haystack.
But the two brothers and sisters who came down from Wudang Mountain were able to firmly lock the position of the small boat. They took the speedboat through several rivers and soon found the small boat hiding in the reeds. This is the unique skill of the Wudang Sect.
The secret of the legend - Chasing the Soul A Thousand Miles Away. A special spice is added to the dough that Xian Yun sticks to the boat. Humans cannot smell it, but it can be accurately found by hounds at a long distance. Because it is very sensitive to dogs.
For dogs, the smell is so strong that even water vapor can't cover it up.
After deciding to do this, Lingxiao got an experienced beagle from nowhere, and tonight he did a wonderful job and led them to find Ye Xiaozhou accurately. Zheng Hui and the people on the boat were talking in the alley, when they heard
Only when there was movement did they realize that a boat was approaching. The boat was hidden in the reed marshes and there was no time to sail out. The two people made a decision immediately and quickly jumped out of the cabin, trying to escape under the cover of the reed marshes. However, they kept hiding from the mountains and did not expose themselves to the water.
Brother and sister Yun and Lingxiao were truly masters among masters. The brother and sister each took out a slingshot from their arms and fired it at the same time with almost no aim.
Under the starry sky, two muffled groans were heard, followed immediately by two loud pops. The two of them were shot in mid-air before they even had time to enter the water.
The clipper rushed over and fished out the two stunned guys. Although they had water coming from their mouths and noses, their bellies were still alive...
"Evacuate" Worried that something might happen, Wang Xian gave an order, and the five speedboats quickly left the scene of the incident. However, they did not return to the county seat, but continued downstream, leaving the county and entering the boundaries of Zhuji County.
Wang Xian doesn't trust anyone in the county at all. He wants to interrogate two precious prisoners overnight on the river in Zhuji County!
