The next morning, Feng Jiuxiao decided to meet Cao Guangshi, the governor of Yazhou.
I didn't want to disturb Cao Guangshi, but since everyone is going to watch the Dragon Boat Competition, as the leader of Yazhou, he must also attend this event, and it is very likely that he will be recognized!
After all, Bigwolf's flowing blonde hair is too dazzling! Even if you want to keep a low profile, you can't keep a low profile!
In addition, Pang Shiwu, Zeng Yong, Zishan, La Jiao, Erni, and Chang Zijin, are there no one that is highly anticipated when such a group of people walking together?
Instead of being complained about by Cao Guangshi later, it is better to inform him in advance!
There is another reason. This Du family massacre is full of strangeness. It will take a lot of time to thoroughly investigate it and it will affect the itinerary. Therefore, it would be best if Cao Guangshi could solve this case.
Feng Jiuxiao asked everyone to wait for news in Du's house, and he, Miss Du and Pang Shiwu first went to the prefect's office.
Miss Du's face was covered with a layer of white gauze, which could prevent others from recognizing it. She followed Feng Jiuxiao and the others. After a while, the three of them came outside the gate of the government office.
On the vermilion door, there are dense copper nails and the door knocker is made of two animal heads, which looks extremely majestic!
There is a stone lion on each side of the gate, with its teeth and claws, and it is lifelike!
There were two yamen runners outside the door whispering to each other.
A Dengwen drum is placed on the east side of the gate, as big as a millstone.
The three of them walked to the door, and the two yamen runners immediately stopped communicating, and their eyes swept over at the same time. One of them shouted, "What are you doing?"
Feng Jiuxiao said calmly: "Please go and inform Lord Cao, and say that an old friend named Feng is coming to him, so he will naturally know who I am."
The two yamen runners have a remarkable face and the other have a round face, and they all have local accents.
The square-faced yamen runner looked up and down at Feng Jiuxiao, with a very unhappy expression, "Who are you? You are not big, you are not very angry! Come on the list!"
Seeing that Feng Jiuxiao was extraordinary, his tone was not as arrogant as before.
But he was still a little unhappy!
After all, there are not many people who dare to talk to him like this over the years!
The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister is now in charge of the highest-ranking official in a prefecture. Who doesn’t act according to his expression in the entire Yazhou city?
Who doesn’t nod and smile when he sees himself?
This kid speaks domineeringly and has a noble accent, and he clearly doesn't take himself seriously! If he finally knows that this kid has no background, then I will kill him!
Feng Jiuxiao naturally knew what he was thinking, but just smiled, feeling that it would be meaningless to continue to get entangled with them like this, and it was a waste of time. So he simply took out the gold medal of the Great Song Dynasty and gave it to the two yamen runners, "I am from the Great Song Dynasty Imperial City Department!"
The square-faced yamen runner was shocked when he saw that the other party actually took out a gold medal. He immediately looked at the exquisite dragon pattern on it. The delicateness was excellent and it was definitely made by contemporary people.
He could see clearly the four words "as if I am here" above!
He had seen the waist cards of the Great Song Dynasty Imperial City Card, which was almost exactly the same as this waist card, except that the waist cards of the masters of the Imperial City Card are made of brass, while only this waist card is made of gold! In addition, the words on the bronze waist cards are "Ship on my behalf"!
The square-faced yamen runner's face immediately became respectful, and his expression changed faster than reading.
He wanted to laugh but couldn't smile that natural smile. Because the boy in white was too young! So he smiled awkwardly: "Wait a moment, I will report to my master immediately!" He winked at the round-faced yamen runner and turned into the gate. The round-faced yamen runner immediately understood and smiled at Feng Jiuxiaoxiao's face and said, "Sir, wait for a moment. Here is Zhang and his party runner Zhang. He is Li Shanchang. I'll be here for a while!"
Feng Jiuxiao remained silent, "Thank you then! You don't have to accompany me, you're busy with yours!"
Pang Shiwu looked at Zhang Yixing with a squinted look and said sarcastically: "You were standing here before we came. After we came, you still have to stand here. Whether we are here or not, you have to stand here. Why do you say so well? We should accompany you?"
The round-faced yamen runner Zhang Yixing was stunned!
He never expected that the boy in black would be so choking when he spoke! He was so thorny!
His face turned blue and white, and he forced a smile: "Haha, this young master may have misunderstood my meaning. I originally wanted to go in and report it, but Li Shanchang took the lead, so I said I'm here to accompany you for a while."
Pang Shiwu was disgusted with him, "The more you draw, the darker you get, don't draw!" He looked disdainful and impatient!
Zhang Yixing suppressed his anger and said to himself: Your gold medal is best to be true. Once Lord Cao saw it as fake, I will take your life on the spot!
Dare to forge the Great Song Dynasty gold medal is a serious crime of raiding the family and extermination of the clan. He has made merits and no faults in killing him on the spot! So Zhang Yixing had a murderous intention in his heart! Just wait for Pang Shiwu and others to "expose their flaws!"
In a short while, he heard a rapid pace in the door. A middle-aged man in the Song Dynasty uniform walked out of the door quickly and saw Feng Jiuxiao at a glance. He took two steps at a time and came to Feng Jiuxiao and bowed and clasped his fists. "Cao Guang, the governor of Yazhou, has really missed the welcome. I hope the deputy envoy will forgive him!"
His waist was almost bent at a right angle! Li Shanchang, who was following behind, immediately bowed and clasped his fists when he saw this, "I have met the deputy envoy!" His death day was stormy in his heart!
And Cao Guangshi's heart has been ups and downs!
The deputy envoy actually came to Yazhou City, and the guys guarding the city didn't inform him! This shows that either the guarding soldiers forgot to inform him, or the deputy envoy specifically told them not to inform him! Isn't this a private visit?!
What is the identity of the deputy envoy? Those who looked at the city gate actually forgot to report. How likely is this? Humph! Although these guards are not under their control, they are the highest officials of Yazhou City! If they have a bad idea, don’t blame yourself for being rude! No matter whose soldiers they are!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! What bothers him is that if the deputy envoy really wants to visit privately in a private place, it will be a real trouble!
I have just taken over Yazhou and I have just started many things. I will inevitably lose sight of one thing. If he really wants to find out his own faults, wouldn’t it be easy to get it? Did he offend him or someone, and wanted to use his hands to deal with him?
The moment he stepped out of the door, he saw the white clothes at a glance! All the lucklessness was instantly gone! The visitor was indeed the deputy envoy!
Now all he was left with anxiety!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Please get up quickly, Lord Cao, don't be polite!"
Cao Guangshi stood up and pointed his right hand into the door, "Please, please!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay!"
Cao Guangshi glanced at Pang Shiwu and smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, Young Master Pang is getting more and more energetic! Please come inside!"
Pang Shiwu glanced at him and was a little confused: "Have you seen me? Why don't I remember where we have seen it?"
Cao Guangshi smiled and said, "When our army attacked Kuizhou, I happened to be there too. But I was on the boat, you just didn't see me." He looked at Miss Du behind Pang Shiwu again, and he was a little confused. It seemed that this girl had never seen her before.
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Tell me inside." As he said that, he walked into the door.
Cao Guangshi suddenly felt that the deputy envoy suddenly came to the door this time, most of the matter was related to this girl!
He immediately followed.
Pang Shiwu glanced at Miss Du and signaled her to leave first.
Miss Du nodded slightly and followed with steps.
Pang Shiwu followed and passed by Li Shanchang. He glanced at Li Shanchang lightly!
In an instant, Li Shanchang felt a murderous aura covering the sky and flooding him, and his back became cold as if he fell into an ice cellar! He was so scared that he immediately stepped back seven or eight steps before he felt that he had improved, and it was no longer so cold!
Seeing Pang Shiwu's back disappearing at the door, Li Shanchang couldn't help but look at Zhang Yixing, and they all saw fear in the other party's eyes!
How could this young man have such a strong murderous aura?
Feng Jiuxiao walked forward without gravel paths. After passing a rockery, there was a pavilion. There was a stone table and four stone benches in the pavilion. Feng Jiuxiao said, "It's just right!" He walked straight into the pavilion.
Cao Guangshi didn't expect that Feng Jiuxiao would sit down here!
"Sir, the deputy envoy is a little chilly outside. Why not go to the humble house in front to have a cup of hot tea?"
"No need, I have something to ask you!"
"Sir, please speak?"
"There is a big family in this city named Du, do you know?"
Cao Guangshi's expression changed, "Did the sir come for this?"
Feng Jiuxiao glanced at him, "How much do you know?"
Cao Guangshi glanced at Pang Shiwu, but hesitated, as if he was hesitant.
Feng Jiuxiao looked at the ground and said lightly: "You can not talk, I can find someone else."
His tone was very light, but Cao Guangshi heard the murderous aura in his words!
Cao Guangshi knew how powerful the boy in front of him was!
He immediately said: "Actually, I am investigating the whole thing, but the more I investigate, the more I feel there is something wrong."
Feng Jiuxiao looked at the chessboard on the stone table, tapped the table with his fingers, "Continue."
"After the murder, I immediately sent someone to investigate the scene, and I went there too."
"You went there in person?" Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but look at Cao Guangshi.
"Yes, I have to be there in person for such a big case!"
“It’s great to do it yourself!”
"Sir!"
"Don't be humble, you're doing a good job! Keep going."
"At that time, the Du Mansion was filled with corpses and blood flowing into a river, which was terrible! I had someone specifically depicted the on-site catalog. The location of each corpse, the current posture, and the injured parts were recorded. According to the coroner's judgment, all the fatal injuries of all corpses were caused by sharp weapons. Many people should have been tortured before their lives, with scars on their bodies and skinless..."
Miss Du suddenly fell backwards, Pang Shiwu was almost holding his hands, but he saw that Miss Du had fainted!
Cao Guangshi's face was gloomy and clear, "Is this the lady of the Du family?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Continue to talk."
Cao Guangshi said: "Okay. According to the Du Mansion's roster, we concluded that at least thirteen people were kidnapped by the murderer. By visiting the surrounding teahouses and neighbors, we finally concluded that the murderer was a bandit from Shuanglongling! Later, I found out that the bandits from Shuanglongling should be deserters from Dashu!"
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Since you know, why don't you send troops to rescue people?"
Cao Guangshi looked embarrassed and said, "There are serious shortages of troops in the city! There are only twenty infantry in Yazhou City now! There are also four gates to guard! If people are sent to suppress bandits, there will be no effect if there are fewer troops. If all the troops are sent out, no one will guard the city!"
Feng Jiuxiao frowned and said, "Why are these twenty infantrymen? What about those soldiers?"
Cao Guangshi said: "The territory of this Great Shu is not much smaller than that of our Great Song Dynasty. Since the Shu Emperor suddenly surrendered, all prefectures and counties have opened the city gates one after another. So many places need to be sent to take over. General Wang was also in trouble. He had to divide his troops into many places. For areas with rebellion in Da Shu, he concentrated his troops to clear them out, and bluffed the relatively safe places! We claim to have a thousand infantry soldiers in Yazhou!"
Feng Jiuxiao frowned and said, "There are no soldiers to save people. Do you mean there are no soldiers?"
Cao Guangshi was about to speak, but Feng Jiuxiao said, "You have thought about it before you talk. I will only give you one chance!"
Cao Guangshi instantly burst into cold sweat on his forehead!
"I……"
"You either hurry up or shut up, why are you hesitating?" Pang Shiwu said impatiently.
Cao Guangshi gritted his teeth, "In fact, there are five hundred soldiers in the city! There are enough soldiers!"
Feng Jiuxiao had no expression on his face, "This is the level of a head coach! A Yazhou City actually has less than a hundred troops. Keep a hammer? Tell me, why not send troops?"
Cao Guangshi said: "I sent it! But the infantry commander of this city, Zhou Jie, did not agree to send troops! The reason was... the reason was that the general was not allowed to send troops to rescue!"
"Why?"
"I don't know what the general means!"
"What do you think about it? How to resolve this case?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "In my opinion, we should catch those fake bandits of Dashu deserters and then force them to find out their motives! I think these Dashu deserters are just other people's pawns!"
"Do you think there is still a mastermind behind the scenes?"
"Yes! I'm investigating the Zhang family now! Their family is the most suspicious! Because the Du family was destroyed, the Zhang family is the one who benefits the most!"
"What you said makes sense! How are you doing in the Zhang family?"
"This is also what I feel strange about! I tried all the people with the ability to commit crimes in the Zhang family from top to bottom, from the great-grandson of the Zhang family to the ten-year-old great-grandson, and passed the sieve!"
"You didn't let the ten-year-old child go?"
"In the past, Yun Wuyang dared to kill people on the street at the age of thirteen. Now, children at the age of ten already know a lot of things! Everything is possible, and no possibility will be spared! What if the entire tragedy is a child from the Zhang family who uses the tone of an adult to contact the bandits in the form of letters and spends a lot of money to hire a killer?!"
"Then why did you only check it out until you were ten years old? You didn't think about it when you were nine years old?"
"I actually considered interrogating children under the age of nine, but there was a lot of resistance. Not only did the Zhang family's reaction be too fierce, but even other major households in the city expressed strong dissatisfaction! I just took over military and political affairs, and I was afraid of arousing civil unrest, so I had to be ten years old!"
"Haha, you are under a lot of pressure at the age of ten!"
"Fortunately, the review is over!"
"As a result, no one admits that he is the real murderer behind the scenes?"
"good!"
"Has it been tortured?"
"No! I dare not easily punish such a prominent family! Moreover, I basically don't need to be punished if I try people! Just observe the words and expressions and you can determine whether this person is lying!"
"Oh? Then you are very awesome!"
"No, no, no, not amazing! I just learned the art of confrontation with an alien from the world!"
"Well, you conclude that it was not what the Zhang family did?"
"I'm sure! The Zhang family's performance is very strange now. They don't have the right to actively cooperate with the investigation, and they are even too active! In short, I just want everyone to understand one thing, that is, they do hate the Du family, but this murder case is definitely not planned by them! The old master of the Zhang family vaguely revealed a meaning, someone is pouring dirty water on the Zhang family! I asked him who was suspected of being a riot behind the scenes, but he shook his head and said something that cannot be said, and it cannot be said! What else can I say in this regard?"
Feng Jiuxiao's eyes flashed, "You mean that Old Master Zhang knew who was making trouble behind the scenes, but he was afraid to point out the enemy?"
Cao Guangshi said: "My understanding is that. This is the place where the more I investigate, the stranger I become! All the old ministers of Dashu surrendered to my Song Dynasty. According to the information I have, the only one who hates the Du family the most is the Zhang family! The two families are eager to be officials in the court. In terms of the industries they operate, the two companies have overlapping industries, which are the most fierce competitors of Yazhou's competitive relationship! The merchants in Yazhou City usually only operate one or two industries, but the Du family and Zhang family are the most widely involved, and almost every industry needs to be involved!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "If the Du family is finished and the Zhang family is finished, who would be happiest?"
Cao Guangshi glanced at Feng Jiuxiao, but he stopped talking!
Feng Jiuxiao Shou: "It seems you have considered it a long time ago. After that, who is so brave and so big of a move!"
Cao Guangshi breathed a sigh of relief, "I just doubt it and dare not speak nonsense."
Don't dare to speak nonsense?
Feng Jiuxiao was stunned and then said, "Okay, I understand! It seems that the man is very powerful!"
Cao Guangshi lowered his head and remained silent.
Sometimes silence is the default!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Don't worry, just say it, I'll keep it a secret for you! Fifteenth, today's words can only be entered, not out, do you hear them?"
Pang Shiwubai is bored, "Yeah!"
Cao Guangshi said carefully: "I suspect it is General Wang Quanbin!"
Feng Jiuxiao did not show a surprised expression, but said lightly: "Is there any evidence?"
Cao Guangshi slowly shook his head in front of Feng Jiuxiao's eyes!
"Then why do you doubt him?"
"Now that the entire territory of Dashu is about to be unified, he is obviously relaxed! Although I have no evidence, I have heard a lot of news that General Wang has actually started to learn to win the emperor's brand!"
Feng Jiuxiao's eyes sank, "This is a presumptuous person! He is very brave!"
"I also heard that he plundered good women from his family and sang every night..."
"What?" Feng Jiuxiao was a little surprised, "Are you sure they were talking about Wang Quanbin?"
"It's true!"
“Is the source reliable?”
“Absolutely reliable!”
Even if the Imperial City Department knows it, it is impossible to report it to me! I believe Wei Qiansui should have known it, right?
Feng Jiuxiao sighed: "I hope Zhao Kuangyin will rectify the style of the Song Dynasty's army. These arrogant soldiers and generals still retain the barbaric and fierceness of the Five Dynasties period. They are simply lawless!"
Wang Quanbin initially served in the court during the reign of Emperor Zhuangzong of Later Tang, and later served in the Later Jin Dynasty. He was promoted to the commander of the guardian saint for his merits. When he arrived in the Jianguo of Later Zhou, he transformed into a commander of the right wing of Longjie!
When Yue Kuangyin ascended the throne, he actually became the governor of the Zhongwu Army of the Song Dynasty!
It seems that this person seems rude, but in fact he is quite scheming!
However, the curse of the strong soldiers of the Five Dynasties rebelling did not seem to have appeared on him, which means that either his strength is not enough, or his superiors suppress him! Now that he monopolizes the power of Shu Kingdom, and the emperor is far away, the risks here are great! However, Zhao Kuangyin also arranged the deputy general Liu Tingrang, which was probably able to reach the festival and make the difference, but the deputy general is the deputy general after all!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "You send a memorial to the court immediately and say that Wang Quanbin has a problem!"
"What's the specific question?"
"You just write down everything you know."
"Mr. Deputy Envoy, would it be better to report it in your name? I'm afraid that if the emperor is furious, I can't afford this overwhelming anger!"
"Okay, just ban my name. Okay, I'll go to the Zhang family to ask."
