In the lobby of the county guard house, everyone dispersed, leaving only Du Hongsheng and Han Yunong.

"The one just now...?" Han Yunong hesitated for a moment, and finally asked softly.

Du Hongsheng approached two steps and whispered softly: "Come from Beijing, the saint is looking for Xun Tianyue, you already know."

"Yes." Han Yunong looked solemnly: "Is it from the palace?"

Du Hongsheng nodded slightly, furrowed his brows, and whispered: "Zhenhou Mansion is really getting worse and worse now. Zhen Yujiang has long put the court in his eyes. If this continues, things will happen sooner or later." /

Han Yunong whispered: "Zhen Yujiang has been pressing hard against the captain's mansion these days. I wonder why he has such courage. Doesn't he care that the court will be dissatisfied? That Chang Xinhou hasn't shown up for a long time."

"I haven't seen Chang Xinhou for a long time." Du Hongsheng thoughtfully: "The old man came from Beijing, although he did not go to Zhenhou Mansion, but with Chang Xinhou's mind, he must have guessed the old man. Maybe in Guicheng, it is reasonable to at least send someone to ask about the situation, but he didn’t do anything." Raising his hand to caress the long beard under his jaw, he said in confusion: "Zhen Yujiang ran over to play in the wild today. Here?"

Han Yunong also frowned and was silent for a moment before he said: "Mencius Mo was trapped in Zhenhou's Mansion two days ago, and his humble position led people to go there in person. He never saw Chang Xinhou in the mansion. These older Xinhous acted. Very low-key, even if Zhen Yujiang acted arrogantly, he has been suppressed by Chang Xinhou, not as arrogant as he is now."

"I know about you going to Zhenhou Mansion." Du Hongsheng nodded and said, "I was also surprised by that incident. Chang Xinhou should be very clear in his heart that the Duwei Mansion is in the Guicheng city, and it was to restrain Zhenhou. The mansion represents the existence of the imperial court. As a last resort, Zhenhou Mansion shouldn’t have a head-on fight with your Duwei Mansion. This is not good for them."

Han Yunong nodded and said: "Actually, the humble post is also very confused about what Zhen Yujiang did. Without the permission of Chang Xinhou, he should not dare to advocate attacking the captain's mansion, but if it is really Chang Xinhou let him In doing so, how can Chang Xinhou feel embarrassed with the court?"

There is a slight doubt between the two eyebrows.

After the Wutuo Rebellion, the three prefectures in Sanhou Township, and the family of Changxin Hou Zhen was in Zhen County. The imperial court fulfilled its promise to the Xiling gate clan and almost handed Xiling to the control of the Xiling three gate clan.

However, both sides are also aware that the Tang Empire needs people from all over the world to believe that Xiling is the territory of the empire, and the Xiling gate clan needs to control Xiling to ensure the prosperity and status of the family.

On this basis, the Xiling gate clan must bow to the empire in exchange for actual benefits.

Xiling is an important place in the western part of the empire. Although the Utuo people were forced to retreat, they never admitted that they were defeated by the empire. Facing the vast territory of the Xiling Corridor, the ever-expanding Utuo Khanate would certainly not give up easily. The empire naturally did not allow Xiling to fall into the hands of the Wutuo Khanate.

If Xiling is controlled by the Wutuo Khanate, then outside Jiayuguan will directly face the threat of the Khanate. For the ambitious Khanate, breaking into Jiayuguan will also be their next inevitable choice.

The empire has not recovered from the civil strife that year. At least the empire does not want to have another war with the Utua Khanate at the moment, but Xiling is a buffer zone, the empire will naturally pay close attention to the movement of this land. .

The empire allows the power of Xiling to occupy the resources of Xiling, but it will never allow the power of Xiling to have a heart for the empire.

Xiling Duhufu and its subordinate three prefecture Duweifu existed to let Xiling's clans understand the attitude of the empire on this land, so that these eyes can keep abreast of the movements of the clans, as long as the clans do not submit to the empire Of course, the empire will not turn a blind eye to the heart.

So

For a long time, the Xiling gate clan had exploited the people of Xiling. The imperial court only opened one eye and closed one eye, and the Xiling gate clan knew that as long as they were in awe of the court on the bright side, they could ensure their position in Xiling.

Although Zhenhou's Mansion will not have any good feelings for the Captain's Mansion, and even regarded it as a thorn in the flesh, the two sides have always been regarded as the well water and the river water.

However, in recent days, the Zhen Hou Mansion has obviously begun to provoke the Du Wei Mansion, and today it is uncharacteristically to directly attack the Du Wei Mansion. This really surprised Du Hongsheng and Han Yunong.

Du Hongsheng is an official sent by the imperial court and has little real power. However, he belongs to the same camp as the captain mansion and represents the interests of the imperial court. Du Hongsheng and Han Yunong know this well, so what is going to happen? The prefecture and the captain must stand on the same front.

"I'll find a chance to visit Zhenhou Mansion." Du Hongsheng was silent for a moment before whispering: "Why hasn't Chang Xinhou been moving for a long time? Only by seeing him can I know."

Han Yunong thought for a while before he said: "The swordsman who made the move today at least let Zhen Hou Mansion understand that Xiling is still the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and there are some things that they can't help but do whatever they want."

"The imperial court does not want turmoil in Xiling." Du Hongsheng said in a low voice: "You also know that when the saint enthroned, Murong in southern Xinjiang immediately rebelled, and the Tusun people in the north also took advantage of it. Although they suppressed them, but The empire has not fully recovered until now. Compared with the Wutuo people, the imperial court has to solve the Murong in the south. Therefore, before the southern borders are calmed down, the imperial court only wants to see everything in Xiling as usual, and these clan families can safely defend themselves."

Han Yunong whispered: "The humble duty understands, and because of this, Zhenhou Mansion is aggressive, and we all try our best to bear it."

"Forbearance." Du Hongsheng patted Han Yunong's arm and smiled bitterly: "My county keeper eats fast and recites Buddha every day. I only hope that everything is peaceful. I am on duty, so I must not go on business trips. "Suddenly thought of something, frowned and said: "But at the captain's mansion, you really have to be careful. As a head catcher, Lu Hong secretly colluded with the Golden Hook Gambling House, you didn't even know beforehand. "

Han Yunong looked solemn, and said, "Humble duty and negligent duty."

"Really speaking, I can't blame you." Du Hongsheng sighed: "The imperial court reached an agreement with the Xiling gate clan. The salaries of the officials of the Xiling gates were used by the Xiling gate clan to withdraw part of the tax. The salary is not high, and they often find excuses to procrastinate. It’s no wonder that some people are dissatisfied." He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I was like the court going to a bank two years ago, and I hope the court can do it every year. A part of the money is broadcast from the treasury to increase the salary of the officials in Xiling. Only by eating food from the court can you read the court."

Han Yu Nongdao: "The court did not agree?"

"The sentence that the treasury is empty, I waited a little longer and sent it away. I haven't mentioned it anymore." Du Hongsheng said helplessly: "Your Capital Mansion is pretty good. Under your control, at least I still read it. The court, if other yamen, hehe...!" leaned close to Han Yunong's ear and whispered: "Man died for money, and birds died for food. Before loyal to the court, many people have to live first, although money may not be able to buy. Everyone’s heart, but most people can bend for silver, and the captain's mansion must be clean."

Han Yunong looked cold and nodded slightly.

While the two were whispering in the lobby, the old man from Beijing was leaning on a chair in the east wing of the county guard mansion, holding a scroll in his hand, while Xiahou Qingcheng stood restlessly. In front of him, it was like a child who made a mistake.

"Old man.....!" As soon as Uncle Hu Li Wenwen spoke, the old man interrupted: "Hee Tae, you don't have to intercede for her. When did I change what I said?"

Xiahou Qingcheng raised his head and said: "Grandpa Tan, you forgive me this time, and I promise you will never do it again next time. From now on, I will obey every word you say. You let me go east. I will never go west."

"Girl, when you left Beijing, you were more sincere than you are now." The old man said with no anger: "Your father is too fond of you, I also take you out to meet the world for his sake. At that time, you promised me again and again in front of him that after you came out, you would obey my instructions in every word and deed. But what have you done along the way, don’t need me to say more?” Sit up and hate iron. Said: "You didn't get into trouble on the road. When you get to Guicheng, I have repeatedly confessed that you must be cautious in Xiling, and you must not act arbitrarily, but...!"

"But I didn't cause any serious trouble." Xiahou Qingcheng was a little unconvinced, pouting her mouth.

The old man widened his eyes, blowing his beard and said: "Did not cause a serious accident? Sneaking out of the house and eating the king's meal in the noodle shop, that's all right. Today, I evaded eavesdropping on Du Hongsheng's trial, and even dared to rush out Intervene in the case, Qingcheng, Qingcheng, are you saying that you have to kill and set fire to make trouble? You.....you are so angry with the old man...!"

"The people in Zhenhou Mansion bullied others and dared to draw their swords in the county guard mansion. Grandpa Tan, you didn't see them. They are arrogant. If I don't stand up, they will kill and set fire." Xiahou Qingcheng did not Convinced: "If you don't believe me, ask Uncle Wen, do they not put the court in their eyes at all?"

The old man gave him a white look, "What does everything have to do with you?" Xiangtou Liren Wen Xitai said: "Heetai, you arrange it, I just said that I will send her back to Beijing personally and finish her. Give the whole ground to her father, saying that she is the reincarnation of the demon king, and I am not her opponent. What she did after leaving Beijing, you should tell her father truthfully, without any omissions."

Wen Xitai arched his hands and said: "Follow the order!"

Xiahou Qingcheng suddenly panicked, and went up to hold the old man’s arm, and said pitifully: "Grandpa Tan, if you really tell my father, just kill me now, otherwise you have to go back. He was beaten to death. I would rather die here, lest I have to go all the way back to Kyoto to kill him."

"Now that you know you are afraid?" The old man said in an unpleasant way: "When you were upset, didn't you think about the consequences?"

"I will listen to you in the future, as long as you don't complain to my dad." Xiahou Qingcheng said aggrieved: "After finally coming out once, I can't do anything, just like being locked in a cage."

The old man snorted coldly, and said: "If I don't want to file a complaint, you can quickly clean up. At dawn tomorrow, you will follow you back to Beijing." Before Xiahou Qingcheng spoke, he immediately said: "If you do Say one more thing, I promise to tell your father exactly what you did."

Xiahou Qingcheng bit his lip, aggrieved, wanted to speak, but didn't dare to speak.

"Qingcheng, you go and clean up first." Wen Xitai said: "You know the old man's temper. You speak like a mountain. If you have to talk more, the old man is really welcome."

Xiahou Qingcheng stood up, stomped, twisted and ran out.

The old man looked at Xiahou Qingcheng's back, sighed, and said: "This kid is pure by nature, and he is protected by his father so well, but he doesn't know that the human heart is sinister."

"Boss, do you arrange for someone to take her back?" Wen Xitai frowned and said: "If I go, your side...?"

"Her father treats her as a baby bump, there must be a little omission. The two lives of me and you are not enough to pay." The old man smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about me, the next thing, myself Can handle it, you will be able to **** her back to Beijing safely..."
