Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 845: :Aftermath
Master Li's face was full of shame: "But it was the lower official's inability to govern the area, which allowed bandits to run amok in the area. They attacked the princess and caused her body to be damaged. The lower official is extremely ashamed."
Yu Youyao said quietly: "Master Li, there is no need to blame yourself. He just thought he was an ordinary bandit, so he was careless for a moment. Who knew that these bandits had some origins, and they actually escaped from the Xishan Mountains? , occupied the mountain and became the king, and also gathered four to five hundred men, very fierce."
Master Li was almost frightened to death.
The bandits from Shiwanli Mountain are all desperadoes with a lot of crimes, so the implications are huge.
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, bandits have been entrenched in this area. Now hundreds of years have passed, bandits have been eliminated again and again, but the bandits are still eradicated.
I couldn't help but feel lucky, and it was thanks to his extra foresight that he saw that the gangsters had lost their morals and frequently committed crimes in the Anshan area, committing many murders. He felt that it was a bit difficult, so he met with Shaoyi County The Lord mentioned this matter.
Otherwise, if we just wait for the bandits to continue to grow in power, sooner or later they will develop into a serious problem in the Liancheng area.
It will be even more difficult for the government to suppress bandits.
The banditry is too big, and he cannot afford to be held accountable by the state capital.
Master Li's reaction was completely within Yu Youyao's expectation: "You don't know that these bandits are so bold that they went to the imperial court to be personally ennobled, and they acted wildly on the head of the third-rank General Anyuan. It is said that they have no eyes and are looking for death. To put it more seriously, they are ignoring the court and despising King Wu Mu Dingbei. If they are let go, where will the face of General Anyuan who has experienced hundreds of battles be put? King Wu Mu Where does the majesty of the imperial court exist, and where should the laws of the imperial court be placed?"
Master Li is convinced that it is true that the princess disguised her identity, kept everything simple, and made a plan to lure the bandits to the bait. However, if the bandits did not do it themselves, General Anyuan would have no name.
Sure enough!
Yu Youyao changed the topic: "General Anyuan immediately led his troops to attack the stronghold. Who knew that these bandits actually kept more than a hundred hostages in the stronghold. The bandit suppression was at a deadlock until late at night. King Wu Mu, who was patrolling the Yan area, got the news and rushed over. He re-formulated the plan to suppress the bandits and sent people to secretly sneak into the mountain stronghold to cooperate with the outside world. Only then did he rescue the hostages and successfully eliminate the bandits."
As soon as he heard that the bandits were keeping so many hostages, Mr. Li was even more frightened. He was glad again that he did not interfere: "I didn't expect that the situation in the mountain stronghold was so complicated. Even King Wu Mu was alarmed."
He did not doubt what Princess Shaoyi said. All the Youjun were elite. No matter how powerful the bandits were, they could not compare to the Youjun. This argument was completely flawless.
Yu Youyao nodded: "The situation in the mountains is a bit complicated. In order to escape for their lives, some bandits set fire to the village to create chaos. Currently, Military Advisor Huang is still verifying the number and identity of the bandits. The hostages also need to be verified, so It is uncertain whether there are bandits among them, so these hostages are temporarily under the custody of Youjun."
After learning that this group of bandits were not ordinary bandits, but people who had fled from Shanxi, Mr. Li was eager to hand them over to Youjun, and this move was in line with his wishes.
The two talked for a while, which was considered to be an overview of the situation in the mountain.
Master Li bid farewell to Princess Shaoyi and immediately went to the place where the hostages were placed, but was stopped by the guard You Jun: "His Highness stated that before the identities of these hostages are verified, no one is allowed to approach without His Highness's permission. them."
Master Li was even more chilled. He always felt that there must be unidentified bandits hiding among these hostages. It was impossible to verify it for the time being. That's why King Wu Mu was so cautious and sent heavy troops to guard them and refused to allow anyone to get close.
I was even more worried.
At this moment, Mr. Li had no choice but to invite a soldier to lead the way, and he led hundreds of government servants to the mountain.
The entire cottage was burned down by the fire and was in a mess. The bowl-shaped cottage blocked the spread of the fire. Otherwise, the fire would spread to the mountain and the entire mountain would be burned down.
There were many corpses placed in the valley, some were killed by the Youjun, some were burned, and there were more than thirty people alive, with their hands and feet tied and kneeling on the ground.
Huang Wenxian was still interrogating the living bandits about the identities and crimes of other bandits in the village, while Yin Huaixi sat and watched.
Master Li hurriedly went to see King Wu Mu.
Yin Huaixi said quietly: "Suppressing bandits is also a matter for the government, and Youjun should not have intervened. But not long ago, the Queen Mother issued an order to protect Princess Shaoyi. Bandits attacked the princess. Luanjia and Youjun took action now. The government should have taken action on all the subsequent matters. However, the origins of these bandits were unusual. They were involved with bandits in the mountains of Shanxi. The relationship was important. In order to The princess is in danger, and this matter should be investigated further. If there are any mistakes that may be embarrassing, please forgive me, Mr. Li."
These words also gave him enough face. How dare Mr. Li take advantage of Qiao? He quickly bowed down and said, "It turns out that the lower officials did not manage the land well, so the bandits went rampant and attacked Princess Shaoyi. Your Highness is extremely merciful by not blaming you. Now His Highness is helping the government to eliminate the banditry. This is the official’s good fortune and the blessing of the people. I am deeply grateful.”
Yin Huaixi nodded: "For the specific situation of the bandits and hostages, Mr. Li directly contacted Military Advisor Huang. If the government has any needs, Military Advisor Huang will definitely cooperate with them."
With these words, Mr. Li really put his heart into his stomach.
The bandits have been wiped out, and King Wu Mu will be responsible for all the rest. The next thing he needs to do is to interrogate the living bandits, interrogate the hostages, verify the hostages' identities, comfort the hostages, etc.
Master Li waited until Military Advisor Huang finished interrogating the bandits before looking for Military Advisor Huang.
Officer Huang was very generous~IndoMTL.com~ not only gave him a list of bandits on the Hundred Thousand Miles Mountain, and the crimes they had committed over the years, but also copied another copy of the list of bandits who had just been interrogated. Case files, and the roster of hostages previously interrogated.
These three volumes are ironclad evidence, and Mr. Li is convinced of this matter. With these three volumes, the case of suppressing the bandits can almost be closed.
It's just that we still need to go through a formality, bring some bandits over for interrogation, and the hostages also need to be interrogated.
Officer Huang said again: "There was a fire in the village, and many bandits were burned to death. There is no way to verify the identities of the bandits, and it is impossible to determine whether all the bandits have been wiped out, let alone whether there are any bandits. To escape, His Highness has already sent people to search the mountain, so we need to be more cautious when dealing with matters, for fear of risking death, please understand Mr. Li."
Master Li said quickly: "Master Huang's words are serious, and the subordinates are frightened."
The yamen brought by the government worked with Youjun to search the village, move the bodies, and do some hands-on work. Mr. Li listened to his yamen’s report on the situation in the mountains and found nothing unusual. He had the last doubt in his heart. also dissipated.
