Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 546
"My lord... slow down, wait for me."

Jia Xiuwen chased him all the way before he finally caught up with Gu Yongnian. After stopping at the gate of the post station, he saw Gu Yongnian coming out leading two horses.

"Get on the horse and follow me to Black Creek City to have a better look."

Gu Yongnian snorted coldly and said, Qin Feng is a special envoy sent by the imperial court, even if the eldest prince is dissatisfied with Qin Feng, it is still the eldest prince's business, he is showing off in Beihai, he looks like a high-ranking official, but if the imperial court really blames him, he I can only walk around because I can't eat.

So he must figure out what is going on with Qin Feng now.

Jia Xiuwen didn't expect that Gu Yongnian would go out in person, so he was naturally taken aback.

But Gu Yongnian had already said that, so he naturally had nothing to say.

The two galloped all the way on horseback, from Tongyuan City to Heixi City, a distance of at least fifty miles. During this journey, the two of them didn't take any rest at all, which made them very tired.

"My lord, even if you want to come to Black Creek City, why don't you come by carriage?"

Jia Xiuwen complained rather dissatisfied.

He only felt the burning pain on the inner side of his two thighs, and his walking posture was like a duck.

Gu Yongnian snorted angrily, and said disdainfully: "You idiot, you know nothing. It is said that all the barbarians can eat people without spitting out their bones, and their purpose of coming to the Central Plains is to plunder property. We want Wouldn't it be a dead end if they found out by using a carriage?"

"This……"

Thinking of the abuse he would receive after being captured by the barbarians, Jia Xiuwen shivered and dared not speak out.

A group of people stopped outside Black Creek City, and after finding a place to tie their horses, they did not dare to approach Black Creek City, and could only watch from a distance.

"Did you say that Qin Feng was really captured by the barbarians?"

Jia Xiuwen stood outside the city and looked at the scene in the city, and asked quite puzzled.

The gate of Heixi City is open, but there are quite a few soldiers around the gate, one of them is tall and burly, with a beard, and he doesn't look like a Central Plains person no matter how he looks.

People on the prairie are naturally taller. Although there are some people who look close to the Central Plains, most of them have high nose bridges and deep eye sockets.

It can be seen from the appearance of these people that they must be people from the grassland.

But the barbarians are here, and they really don't know where Qin Feng will be.

At this moment, Gu Yongnian suddenly frowned.

"Look, isn't that Li Laitou?"

Gu Yongnian suddenly pointed to a soldier sitting on the ground next to the city gate, and said to Jia Xiuwen beside him.

When Jia Xiuwen heard this, she raised her head and squinted her eyes.

"That's right, that kid is Li Laitou, and next to him is Liu Changhai who was exiled with him."

This Li Laitou was originally from Jiangdong, and his family had a little money. Because he offended the local magistrate, his house was ransacked and sent to Beihai.

However, this kid is also considered clever. He secretly hid 1 taels of silver when he ransacked the house.

In order to allow himself to live a good life in Beihai, he has been using this money to bribe people around him.

This of course also includes Gu Yongnian.

When this kid was in his hometown, he molested the magistrate's daughter-in-law, so he was driven to Beihai. In Beihai, by bribing his boss, he also became an idle officer. He thought his life would be better, but he was dead He didn't change it, and molested a friend of a thousand households in the army.

Naturally, he couldn't twitch now, and after being beaten up by the Qianhu, all the money was taken away. This time, when he heard that Gu Yongnian was going to find someone to send him to death, Li Laitou was immediately dragged over.

As for the man named Liu Changhai, he was Li Laitou's fellow villager. After the two met in the army, they immediately liked each other and got mixed up.

Seeing Liu Changhai now, Gu Yongnian could almost recognize him at a glance.

"Look again, why are the other people around so much like the 5000 people I gave to Qin Feng before?"

Gu Yongnian frowned slightly. Of course he didn't know all of these people, but he still had a little impression. After seeing an acquaintance, he immediately felt that everyone else was so familiar.

This made him doubtful, and suddenly had a conjecture that even surprised him.

"You said, could it be that Qin Feng led his troops and surrendered to the barbarians?"

After this idea was born, he was immediately taken aback.

When Jia Xiuwen heard this, she nodded immediately: "My lord, I think your analysis is reasonable."

"This barbarian army can live in peace with our Dazhou army. How could there be a second possibility besides Qin Feng surrendering to the enemy?"

"This is a big deal,"

Gu Yongnian hurried back: "No, this Qin Feng took the troops I gave him to join the enemy. I will definitely report this matter to the court."

What he thought in his heart was very simple, if Qin Feng really defected to the enemy, he would definitely tell the court, so that Qin Feng couldn't bear to walk around.

But at this moment, Jia Xiuwen reached out to stop him.

"Wait a minute, my lord. If we just tell the court like this, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

"Did you lose money?"

Gu Yongnian looked at Jia Xiuwen in confusion, but didn't understand what Jia Xiuwen meant.

But Jia Xiuwen showed a smirk at this moment: "My lord, don't you think that Qin Feng's rebellion is also a great opportunity for you to make meritorious deeds."

"What do you mean?"

Although Jia Xiuwen is not very good at doing serious things, he can always come up with crooked ideas one after another. Hearing what Jia Xiuwen said, he immediately realized that there was something in this kid's words.

Jia Xiuwen immediately became more proud: "My lord, this Qin Feng was relegated to Beihai, but because he offended His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely not like him."

"But after he came to Beihai, not only did he not make any mistakes, but he also contributed one after another. Even His Majesty today has nothing to do with him, right?"

Gu Yongnian knew a little about Qin Feng's grievances with the emperor, but he still didn't understand what it had to do with his meritorious deeds.

"My lord, since Qin Feng has some grievances with His Majesty, His Majesty definitely doesn't want to see Qin Feng make meritorious deeds, but he also doesn't want to see Qin Feng rebel, because Qin Feng's ability is already very strong."

"If we lead an attack and take down Qin Feng and these barbarians, His Majesty will definitely be happy, and the credit for calming Beihai will be yours."

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"

Gu Yongnian immediately slapped his head. With so few people in Qin Feng's hands, how could he beat the barbarians, but he was different.

With his many years of experience in the North Sea, wouldn't it be easy to mobilize some troops to help him?
