Chapter nine hundred and eighty first midnight visitor
Cai Shiqi, the governor of Yuzhou, is very distressed now. In the past two years, although Yuzhou was under the actual control of Xie Shilin, the wealthy Jingzhou was the foundation. The burden on Yuzhou was not too heavy. The food, grass, and military supplies needed to support were also within the affordable range. He did not feel much trouble. However, since Xie Shilin's tens of thousands of troops abandoned Jingzhou last year and poured into Yuzhou all in one go, the wealthy Jingzhou was gone, and the tens of thousands of troops were basically solved by Yuzhou. The monthly food and grass required made him unable to sleep or eat.
Cai Shiqi knew this clearly. What kind of virtue is the Yuzhou town army? These Shu army are even more powerful, especially these Shu army come from afar and far away from their hometowns. They are extremely resentful. Although Xie Shilin's army is still disciplined, there are always bold and arrogant people stealing, killing people and robbing, rape and plundering. Since they entered Yuzhou City last year, there have been hundreds of such cases. Basically, every time it is left alone. Even if these bastards are caught on the spot, they have to hand them over to the Shu army to handle it themselves. It is amazing that it is just a military stick. Cai Shiqi is extremely worried about whether Xie Shilin's indulgence will lead to greater disasters.
What made Cai Shiqi most angry was that after Xie Shilin arrived, the generals of the Yuzhou town army threw themselves into the arms of the other party. Instead of fighting fiercely, they completely ignored their own existence. Although there were only tens of thousands of town army troops in Yuzhou and their combat effectiveness could be ignored, it was the local army in Yuzhou after all.
"Master, I will never hand over these things to the Shu army this time!" Zhang Jing'an, Sima of Yuzhou, had a somewhat deformed face. "In the late night, he broke into the door, wiped out his wife and daughter in front of her husband, and finally killed someone to silence him. Sir, how could such a vicious case have occurred in Yuzhou? This is not in that remote village, and not many people know that the government can suppress it. This happened in Yuzhou City. These things were blocked by the people and captured. They were found on the scene and resisted and killed several people. The city of Yuzhou is like a pot of boiling oil. If you only need a little cold water, it will explode immediately. Sir, no matter what, you must insist on us to judge these things this time. It is typical of the clear and honest ones, or it can relieve the anger of the people!"
Cai Shiqi grabbed his big beard hard. His long beard was once his favorite, but now, one day he wouldn't have been cut off by himself? With a whisper, the force made him bigger and several beards fell off. Cai Shiqi threw the beard to the ground in anger, "Jing'an, do you think I don't want it? You just caught these people yesterday. Today, Xie Shilin's personal guard commander Xie Cheng came to the door and said that these people were the personal guards of the father-in-law. Although they committed crimes, they should be dealt with by military law. The local government cannot handle it without authorization. I am also in a difficult situation!"
"What kind of father-in-law?" Zhang Jing'an said angrily: "Xie Shilin's daughter is just breathing in the palace now."
"Why did the Empress Dowager also named Xie Shilin's daughter as Tai Guifei at this time? Isn't it because of the army in Xie Shilin's hands? Jing'an, even the Empress Dowager is afraid of this person, what can I do?"
"Master, aren't you afraid of the people in the city? Once the civil unrest is aroused, it will be a huge disaster!"
"I don't want to stir up a civil rebellion, but what if you insist on killing these things, what should Xie Shilin turn against you? The city of Yuzhou is now full of his Xie family's soldiers." Cai Shiqi sighed.
Zhang Jingan said angrily: "Sir, are you planning to hand over the person?"
"What if I don't give in? I'll send a notice to tell the people of the whole city, and I'll say General Xie will personally deal with these inmates." Cai Shiqi said.
"Sir!" Zhang Jingdang said, "You want to lead this anger to Xie Shilin, how can you satisfy the people? You are their parents' officials, they will only look at you."
Cai Shiqi just shook his head, "What can I do if I do if I do if I do if I do if I do if I do if I do if I do if I do?"
Seeing Cai Shiqi's appearance, Zhang Jing'an said angrily: "I will not come out of this notice, so I will say goodbye!"
"Jing'an, you are the Sima of my Yuzhou!" Cai Shiqi raised his voice.
"Tomorrow I will write a resignation to the adults. It would be better if you don't do anything if you hold your breath like this!" Zhang Jing'an angrily slammed the door and left.
"Jing'an, if you have something to discuss, you can discuss it, you can discuss it..." Cai Shiqi's voice suddenly became in his throat, because Zhang Jing'an, who had just walked out of the door, retreated step by step again, and a sharp steel knife was pressed against his chest. The knife moved forward, and Zhang Jing'an could only retreat and retreat back to the room. Standing in front of Zhang Jing'an was a man in black covered with black scarf. Behind the man in black, more than a dozen masked guests in the same outfit snatched into the room.
Cai Shiqi opened his mouth and was about to cry out. The masked man holding a steel knife chuckled and said, "Mr. Cai, if I were you, I would never have shouted. Your guards are now lying down. When you shout, we panic, and our hands will inevitably be unstable. The knife slipped and hurt the two lords. Look at Zhang Jing'an, you are very calm."
"Who are you? How do you know me?" The other party called out his identities and Zhang Jing'an, obviously from a different background.
In addition to the expectations of Cai Shiqi and Zhang Jingan, the man in black actually got into the sheath, then took off the masked scarf on his face, exposing his face to the two of them.
"Lynch, I have met two adults!" Lynch clasped his fists and bowed deeply to the two of them. "The unexpected place in the depths was a frightening thing, which made the two adults frightened."
"Luwang, Lynch?"
"That's right!" Lynch looked at the other party's suspicious expression, reached into his arms, and took out his waist card, "This is Lynch's identity nameplate and seal, and these brothers in the room are all members of the net."
Looking at the nameplate in his hand, Cai Shiqi handed it to Zhang Jingan on the side. Since it was not an enemy but Luowang's person, Cai Shiqi calmed down. Although Luowang is notorious, he has always been loyal to the court, so they would not make things difficult for him.
"Sir, it is indeed the identity nameplate and seal of Luowang. I have had contact with them on some business matters before. It is extremely difficult for outsiders to imitate such nameplate." Zhang Jing'an nodded affirmatively.
"Since it's Luowang's people, why are you so sneaking? What's wrong with my guard? Have you killed them?" Cai Shiqi was a little angry, "Can't you just hand over the post to see you openly? Or is Luowang used to coming in without telling you?"
"Mr. Cai, now the situation in Yuzhou is in the right way, so I'm afraid Xie Shilin will know it soon!" Lynqi said with a smile. "As a last resort, we can only take some extraordinary measures?"
After hearing this, Cai Shiqi's body was buoyed, but Zhang Jing'an was happy. Both of them were sophisticated. Lynch's words were not really telling them that the purpose of their trip to Luowang was aimed at Xie Shilin.
"You want to deal with Xie Shilin?" Cai Shiqi looked at Lynch in shock, stood up suddenly, and circled around the house several times, "How do you Luowang deal with him? He is a general with heavy troops. Now Yuzhou City is completely under their control. Could it be that he wants to assassinate? This doesn't work, absolutely not!"
Zhang Jing'an's smile was lowered and nodded in agreement with Cai Shiqi, "Yes, you must not kill Xie Shilin. Although the military discipline of the Shu army is now corrupt, it is not too much to be suppressed by Xie Shilin. If you kill Xie Shilin, Yuzhou will inevitably be in chaos and the people will suffer. For Yuzhou City, this is a catastrophe."
"We didn't come to kill him!" Lynch shook his head and said.
"Since it's not killing him, what's your purpose?" Cai Shiqi looked at Lynch and asked strangely.
"The current form of the two masters also understand that Tongzhou is facing the attack of the Northern Expedition Army in both Luzhou and Jingzhou. General Xie holds tens of thousands of troops, but he retreats to Yuzhou and does not want to share the worries of the court. The Empress Dowager is very unhappy. Therefore, the task we are here this time is to urge General Xie to send troops from Yuzhou to threaten Jingzhou and reduce the pressure on Tongzhou."
After hearing this, Zhang Jing'an shook his head repeatedly, "General Lin, Xie Shilin ran away from Jingzhou at the beginning. If you expect him to send troops to Jingzhou again, wouldn't he be able to catch the moon in the water and quench his thirst by looking at the plums."
"The Queen Mother also knew that he wouldn't do it, so she sent us!" Lynchson said: "Since we are here, we can't help him."
"Do you want to?" Cai Shiqi looked at Lynch and asked curiously: "Threat him? Xie Shilin is a general and a military general. He always lives in the military camp. No matter how capable you are, you can't threaten him, right?"
Lynch laughed, "So let's find Lord Cai first!"
"What do you want to do?" Cai Shiqi changed color and said, "What can I do?"
Lynch reached into his arms and took out a scroll wrapped in yellow silk, "Mr. Cai, this is the edict written to you by the Empress Dowager. What you need to do is clearly written on it!"
Cai Shiqi swallowed hard, walked to Lynch, bent down deeply, overturned his hands, took the scroll, carefully opened it, poured out a letter from it, read it carefully, took a deep breath, stuffed the letter back into the scroll, turned around and placed it respectfully on the table.
"General Lin, Mr. Cai is powerless, how can he help you?"
"I just listened to it for a long time. Don't the adults have a few Xie Shilin's personal soldiers?"
"Yes!" Cai Shiqi nodded and said, "Does General Lin want to use them?"
"Yes, if it's an ordinary soldier, that's fine, but since it's Xie Shilin's personal soldier, it's different. Xie Cheng will definitely come to ask for someone tomorrow. Lord Cai, you insist that you want to release him, but General Xie has to come to discuss the relevant military discipline issues in person. If General Xie doesn't come, these people will be tried publicly, and it's clear that they are typical to vent public anger!" Lynch said.
"Do you want to take Xie Shilin from me?"
