Chapter four hundred and ninety fourth waste utilization
The government office in Tongyuan City is not small, and can even be described as grand. At least Ye An feels that his own Sinong Temple is not much larger than the government office.
After Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan were detained, it was equivalent to clearing all the obstacles for Ye An in Huanzhou, so much so that Zhou Wenzhi hurriedly came from Ansai Village to pay a visit after receiving the news.
On the way, he thought he was doomed. After all, Ye An, Cui Jien, and Zhou Shouyuan were all civil servants, so they must protect each other. Wouldn't he, the Jingyuan Road Commander, be a piece of cake?
But when he arrived at Tongyuan City, he was even more horrified when he heard that Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan were taken into custody by Ye An. Even a civil servant could do this, let alone a military official like himself? This Ye Hou really has no mercy at all.
!
He secretly said: "My life is at stake!" But he still walked into the prefecture government office. How could this be the Huanzhou prefecture office that he was familiar with? It was simply a military camp, with several powerful Longxi men standing there, with their waistbands on their waists.
The sight of a long knife is terrifying.
Stepping to the flower hall, looking at Chen Lin with a serious face and Ye An with a calm face, Zhou Wenzhi swallowed his saliva and clasped his fists and said: "As a humble minister of Jingyuan Road, Zhou Wenzhi pays homage to Yehou and Chen Daguan!"
"I am just curious, have you caught the person who leaked the secret?"
Zhou Wenzhi was slightly startled. He didn't expect that Ye Anwen's first sentence was this. The answers he had prepared in his mind were no longer needed. His old face suddenly said with shame: "We haven't found out yet."
"That sentence has not yet been clarified! Your words alone can lead to military law enforcement!"
Chen Lin was furious. She almost stood up but was held back by Ye An. She looked at Zhou Wenzhi and said, "You didn't notice at all, did you? You told me that such a big leak of information in the military has not been found out yet."
Is it too far-fetched to explain?"
Zhou Wenzhi's face turned as red as pig liver and he was speechless. Chen Lin went up and kicked him on the butt: "If you have anything to say, say anything, if you know anything, say it. Is it possible that I'm still confused at the moment and have no idea at all?"
?!"
"There may be some tricks in the army!"
This is Zhou Wenzhi's helpless answer. It's not that he hasn't checked during this time. He can't find out who in the army leaked the news after searching through it. This is simply a shame and humiliation for him, but even if he went crazy, he
The military searched for it, but still had no clue.
Ye An and Chen Lin looked at each other. As they had guessed before, there was already a problem in Zhou Wenzhi's security forces. The Xiqiang people did not have the ability to infiltrate into the security forces, let alone spread the news without leaving any trace.
Go out, so there must be party members in the security forces.
For a moment, both of them gasped in horror. Their worst fears had indeed come true. Although they had been prepared, Chen Lin was still a little panicked: "The border army is the most important part of the country, how can it be spared?!"
Picking out his ears that were stimulated by Chen Lin's sharp scream, Ye An shook his head and said: "This must be something that the party members have been planning for a long time. Zhou Shouyuan, you don't need to be surprised. Since I said it in front of you, I trust you."
With the army and horses under the jurisdiction of the government, it is a wise move for you to come to the state alone to administer the Yamen today. Remember, no one in the security army can be trusted except yourself. We don’t know who this person is!"
Zhou Wenzhi was dumbfounded at the moment. He did not expect that Ye An did not blame himself, but hoped that he could be punished and make meritorious service. The difference between this and Cui Jien was too obvious.
After a long time, he clasped his fists and said, "Zhou Wenzhi thanks the pacifier for the support! This time when we go back, we will definitely find out the spies and follow them with military law!"
"Don't worry! Maybe having spies in the army is not necessarily a bad thing? Right?"
"Um?!"
Chen Lin was also a little suspicious. After seeing Ye An's treacherous expression, she knew what he was going to do. Then she patted Zhou Wenzhi on the shoulder and said: "When you go back, you will bring a few people with you to act as personal soldiers. Ye Hou is
this means?"
Ye An gave Chen Lin a thumbs up and said, "The official understands me!"
Zhou Wenzhi left with tears in his eyes. He felt relaxed when he took the step out of the flower hall. It seemed that he would not be punished too severely. At most, he would be fined a copper and moved to another state to serve. If he could be punished and meritorious, that would be great.
"You have always been strict in running the army, how can you let Zhou Wenzhi go? Besides, you are not so tolerant towards Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan. Aren't you afraid that you will be impeached by the imperial censor after you return to the court?"
"How do you know that I am harsh on Cui Tuesday? I will naturally give them a way out!"
"Um?!"
Ye An did not intend to offend anyone. Zhou Wenzhi did not notice the party spies due to his lack of ability. This was not a subjective mistake. If he had already known that there were spies in the army and leaked important information, then Ye An would definitely be punished strictly by military law.
Now the Security Army really needs the general Zhou Wenzhi. We have inquired about it before. The soldiers of the Security Army still have a good impression of this Bingma Qianji. At least he is not greedy, and the monthly salary the soldiers receive is sufficient.
, in particular, many rewards from the imperial court were also distributed.
Yes, this is the standard by which the soldiers of the Song Dynasty judged a good general.
"Let's go have a meal and meet old friends by the way!"
Ye An's words made Chen Lin confused. She stayed in an inconspicuous small room in the backyard of the government office and saw Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan holding cattail fans to cool off. Only then did she know Ye An's intention, and she muttered dissatisfied: "You are so stupid
What a coward, even a certain family is kept in the dark?!"
Ye An smiled slightly and said to the two "prisoners": "Thank you for your suffering. We need to act more realistically later. It's best to let everyone in the city know about our differences, and let people who are interested know about me."
move to seize power.
The two of them dared not, but Cui Jien laughed and said: "Cui is very grateful to Yehou for giving us the opportunity to make meritorious service, but he never thought that there would be party members instigating Huanzhou... Fortunately, Cui is still the magistrate of Huanzhou.
, shame me too!”
Seeing the distressed looks of the two people, Chen Lin curled his lips. In his opinion, these two people should be dealt with severely! If they hadn't oppressed the Qiang people, they wouldn't have been able to let the Dangxiang people succeed!
What Ye An is thinking about is the present. Since these two people have made a mistake, then "waste utilization" can give full play to their final value. As for their crimes, they will definitely not be able to escape. Ye An is not overflowing with sympathy.
At this point, it can be said that the current chaos in Huanzhou was caused by the two of them.
Even if the party members planned all of this behind the scenes, they are fully capable of quickly calming down problems when they arise. They have been in charge of one party for many years. If they don't have this ability, they can't be justified anywhere!
……………………
After the people of Tongyuan City learned that their magistrate and Tongpan master had been detained, they all took to the streets to watch this spectacle.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these two people are almost incomparable. How can such an official be caught? So the entire Tongyuan City knew about Ye An, the Yunzhong County Marquis who served as the deputy envoy to appease the body.
It's not surprising that they realized later that Anhua's army had not entered the city at all, and Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan only found out that the pacifier had arrived when Ye An came to visit them.
The common people don't care whether they are high-ranking or not, they all think the same. As long as Huanzhou can be stabilized, suppressing the Xiqiang people will undoubtedly appease the envoys.
As for Cui Jien and Zhou Shouyuan... I have to say that these two people are quite good at doing things. Although they exploit the Xiqiang people, they treat the Han people in Huanzhou pretty well and there is no additional tax.
