Of course, Li Shanchang did not directly go to Zhu Yuanzhang to complain.
As an old fox who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, Li Shanchang knew that he had repeatedly tripped up Hu Changan before, which had left a bad impression on Zhu Yuanzhang.
Even if Li Shanchang files a complaint now, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely think that Li Shanchang has a personal grudge against Hu Changan and is filing a black complaint.
In this way, not only did Hu Changan survive, but Li Shanchang himself lost everything.
This time, Li Shanchang decided to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
...
This day happened to be a rest day, and Li Shanchang walked slowly towards the home of Gaochun County Magistrate Shen Yichuan.
When Shen Yichuan heard the report from the concierge that the prince of the dynasty had arrived, he was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the teacup in his hand and it fell to the ground with a clatter.
This is the lord of the dynasty! How could he suddenly come to the humble residence of a small seventh-grade county magistrate?
Could it be that something big happened?
Shen Yichuan was frightened and frightened. He quickly ordered his servants to bring tea and respectfully invited Li Shanchang in.
Li Shanchang looked at the poor quality tea on the table and frowned slightly.
But the quality of the tea is not the focus today.
Li Shanchang lifted up his robe and sat down, and asked Shen Yichuan: "County Magistrate Shen, do you know that someone is recruiting troops in the territory you manage with the intention of rebelling?"
What?
There is such a thing?!
Shen Yichuan was anxious and tremblingly saluted Li Shanchang: "His Royal Highness, Mr. Han, I really don't know anything about it! I wonder if His Royal Highness, Mr. Han, has any good ideas?"
Shen Yichuan was originally scared when he saw Li Shanchang coming over, but now that he heard Li Shanchang say such shocking things, he became even more uneasy.
This is treason, a first-rate crime.
If it happens in the territory under his jurisdiction, he is simply to blame.
Even if it is finally proven that this matter has nothing to do with him, Shen Yichuan will inevitably shed his skin. There will be no hope for his career in the future.
If he was found to be involved in this matter...
Then Shen Yichuan, I am afraid that the lives of his whole family will be in danger!
Looking at Shen Yichuan's trembling look, Li Shanchang smiled with satisfaction.
Oh, the fish took the bait.
Li Shanchang quickly pretended to be kind and helped Shen Yichuan up, saying warmly: "Brother Yichuan, I know you are innocent."
"If I doubted you, I wouldn't have come to you first."
"The person who is plotting rebellion in your territory is called Hu Chang'an, and he is your Majesty's recently appointed minister of the Ministry of Industry."
"This person is very scheming. Taking advantage of the money in his house, he bought a lot of land in your Gaochun County, recruited nearby villagers to rebel, and even distributed weapons to them."
"Fortunately, I discovered it in time. Now he has only recruited a few hundred villagers and has not yet formed a large scale."
"As the county magistrate, you must take responsibility and bring these evildoers to justice!"
After hearing this, Shen Yichuan nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty the Duke of South Korea, I will go to the palace immediately to report to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to eliminate those villains."
At this time, in Shen Yichuan's eyes, Li Shanchang was simply a very good person.
If it weren't for Li Shanchang, Shen Yichuan wouldn't be able to take on such a big thing by himself.
However, Shen Yichuan did not think more deeply about why Li Shanchang did not report to His Majesty the first time he discovered such a major event, but instead told His Majesty in a roundabout way through him, a seventh-grade sesame official?
Under the sudden shock, Shen Yichuan naturally forgot such details.
When Li Shanchang saw this, he also smiled with satisfaction.
Shen Yichuan has figured it out.
Li Shanchang was not worried at all that Shen Yichuan would regret it.
Because Yu Gong, as the county magistrate, discovered that there was rebellion in the area under his jurisdiction, it was his duty to report it to His Majesty.
Yu Zi, seeing how timid Shen Yichuan is, doesn't want to get too involved in this kind of thing.
Li Shanchang greeted Shen Yichuan for a few more words, then turned and walked out of the Shen family's door.
Next, it’s time to find Fu Youde, Duke of Ying.
...
Yingtian City, Yingguo Duke's Mansion.
At this time, Fu Youde was drinking wine depressedly.
Ever since he was reported by Hu Changan last time and lost his land, his life has been very bad.
Although he was both the Duke of the country and the general of the dynasty, the salary he had on hand was really not much, and it was not enough to cover the extravagant expenses of their family.
Without the extra income brought by the fields, life in Fu Youde's house has been very tight recently.
Even Fu Youde's favorite imported wine was replaced by ordinary liquor.
This made Fu Youde feel aggrieved.
Fu Youde simply hated this guy Hu Changan.
Without him, my life would not be so miserable.
Just when Fu Youde was drinking, the concierge came to report that Korean Mr. Li Shanchang asked to see him.
Facing his good brother who had been through life and death on the battlefield, Fu Youde naturally let him go happily.
Regarding Li Shanchang, Fu Youde was obviously much more relaxed than Shen Yichuan.
Seeing Li Shanchang come in, Fu Youde shook the wine on hand and drunkenly said to Li Shanchang: "Brother Li, what kind of wind brought you here today?"
"Now that you're here, don't leave. Come and have a few drinks with me."
When Li Shanchang saw this, he also declined Fu Youde.
He has serious business today.
Li Shanchang took a sip of the tea brought by the boy and said calmly: "Brother Fu, according to reports from my subordinates a few days ago, that guy Hu Changan seems to be secretly recruiting troops in Gaochun County with the intention of rebelling!"
What?
Fu Youde suddenly became interested, and his drunken mind became much clearer. He put down the wine glass with a snap, and laughed happily: "Ha, that kid Hu Changan has his day, too!"
"Let's see if Your Majesty won't chop him up alive! I will go to the palace to see Your Majesty right now!"
With that said, Fu Youde actually tidied up his clothes and prepared to go directly to the palace to meet the saint!
Li Shanchang quickly stopped Fu Youde's impulsive move, and gently dissuaded him: "Brother Fu, if you go like this, you are just trying to alert the enemy!"
"I have already told the Gaochun County Magistrate, and he has now entered the palace to discuss this matter with His Majesty."
"I came to see you today because I was afraid of alerting the enemy and letting that cunning boy escape!"
"We must get everyone's stolen goods before we can defeat this hateful boy in one fell swoop."
"Okay!" Fu Youde was originally a careless person, and he took Li Shanchang's words seriously. He patted his chest and said, "Brother Li, don't worry, I happen to have a team of people in Gaochun County."
"Look, I will go to the military camp immediately to inform them and make dumplings for that guy Hu Changan!"
"Very good, thank you very much, Brother Fu." After hearing this, Li Shanchang also smiled with satisfaction.
This is what he was waiting for!
Hu Changan, Hu Changan, I'm afraid you're going to have trouble escaping today! This chapter has been completed!
