Wu Meiniang's beautiful eyes narrowed, "Okay, I know, you can go down first." Chen You bowed and turned around to retreat. Lan Yuheng and others had all gone down before saying, "Is this the inner guard?"

Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Yes, all states and counties have their own spies. They facilitate the affairs of the court and supervise whether these ministers are doing their jobs well."

Lan Yuheng nodded and said, "But why does he feel something wrong in his heart? Why hasn't he reported such a big thing?" Wu Meiniang smiled slightly, "It seems you have noticed it too."

Lan Yuheng frowned, "Then you let him go? It would be better if Huang Suijiang knew about this." Wu Meiniang said calmly at the intersection, "Why are you so anxious? Besides, did I let him go?"

"Empress, we're here." Another voice came from outside the door. Wu Meiniang said calmly as always, "Come in."

"My subordinate, He Ji, pays homage to the empress!" It was a middle-aged man in official uniform. Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "He Ji, I want to ask you, has anything happened in Ruyang these years?"

He Ji nodded and said, "Back to your Majesty, a lot of things have happened. Huang Suijiang used his position to amass money and levied it privately in violation of the court's notice. He even did not let go of the horses in the horse market. According to the villain's investigation, he He also has close contacts with the governor of Luoyang, and I don’t know who he is specifically..."

Wu Meiniang narrowed her beautiful eyes, "What about Chen You?" He Ji was slightly startled, "Chen You is Huang Suijiang's master. The two of them worked together to do many shameful things. Bullying and domineering women are commonplace."

Lan Yuheng was a little surprised, but Wu Meiniang had no expression on her face. "Okay, I'll tell you to start preparations in case Huang Suijiang makes any moves." He Ji saluted, "I'll go and prepare now..."

"Is this He Ji also an internal guard?" Lan Yuheng asked with a frown, Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Of course, it's just that he is an undercover person and does not need to report to the court. Unless he takes the initiative to contact the internal guards, there cannot be mutual understanding between the internal guards. It seems... Chen You and Huang Suijiang are already on the same boat..."

"Then what are you going to do?" Lan Yuheng also asked curiously, and Wu Meiniang sneered, "Bring people in."

After a while, Chen You, who had just left, was brought up. He had an innocent look on his face, "What did my subordinate do wrong? I reported the matter in Ruyang truthfully!"

"Report truthfully? For example, recruiting troops?" Wu Meiniang squinted her beautiful eyes, with a cold light shining in her eyes.

Chen You's face turned pale, and his face alternated between red and white. With a pop, he knelt down directly, "Mother, please forgive me! These things, this subordinate... I have also been deceived by an adulterer!"

Wu Meiniang said calmly, "As an internal guard of the imperial court, you are a close confidant of the imperial court, and you actually colluded with the Ruyang County magistrate! You are so daring to act like this! Why do I keep you here!"

Chen You was so frightened that she burst into tears, "My dear, please spare me! I was forced by them too! They discovered my identity as an internal guard very early, and there was nothing I could do about it! They forced me to Yes, if I don’t join them, they will take my life!”

Seeing Chen You's nose bursting into tears, Wu Meiniang just looked at her coldly, "Now I will give you a chance to make up for your past mistakes. Let's see if you will cherish it..."

Chen You nodded hurriedly, "Yes!" He was so willing now! Wu Meiniang said calmly, "Tell me everything about Huang Suijiang. If there is any difference, I will kill you!"

"Yes!" Chen You wiped his face, "Mother, Huang Suijiang has been collecting food and grass from the people for more than a day or two, and he also bought horses and iron tools on a large scale."

Lan Yuheng touched his chin, "These are all for war, right?" Chen You nodded and said, "Yes... I don't know the specific villain, but he has a very close relationship with the Luoyang prefect, and these things are transported to Luoyang. Well, Huang Suijiang is probably just a businessman. He also specifically ordered that no one should say anything. Once he finds out, most of them will die..."

Wu Meiniang listened quietly, and the look on her face became more and more gloomy: "You must summon Huang Suijiang to me now!"

Chen You was a little hesitant: "Mother, Huang Suijiang is surrounded by close confidants. I'm afraid..." Wu Meiniang frowned and said nothing.

Lan Yuheng smiled and said, "Let me go. How many people are there with him?" Lan Yuheng still had to ask the other party how many people there were. If there were too many, he might as well forget it...

"Not many, there are only 23 people in the county government..." Chen You said uneasily, Lan Yuheng touched his chin, "Is this the number of people in the entire county magistrate?" Chen You waved his hand, "No, no, there are indeed so many cronies. , but together with other government officials, it is estimated that there are about a hundred people, and... and the county soldiers are basically their people."

"So troublesome?" Lan Yuheng scratched his head. It would be difficult if Huang Suijiang mobilized people. Wu Meiniang was also thinking of countermeasures. Chen You saw Lan Yuheng's dilemma. "But... these people are usually not here. We need The transfer can only be made with the consent of the Taiwei and the county magistrate."

Lan Yuheng nodded, "That's easy to handle. I can go to the county government to capture Huang Suijiang, so that he doesn't even have the chance to mobilize his troops." Wu Meiniang hesitated, "I will ask He Ji and others to cooperate with you. As long as I take There won’t be so much trouble if you go down to Huangsuijiang River.”

"He Ji?" Chen You's face turned pale. He didn't expect that He Ji was also from the court. No wonder he was exposed so quickly...

Lan Yuheng was too lazy to care about what he was thinking, "Okay, without further ado, I will avoid long nights and dreams. You can lead the way for me." Chen You nodded hurriedly. Now is the time to make meritorious deeds, and this person doesn't seem to be simple...

"Be careful. If something goes wrong, forget it. I will find a way to deal with it." Wu Meiniang said softly. Lan Yuheng smiled and waved her hand, indicating that it was okay.

When Lan Yuheng came to the door, Yi was already waiting. There were about 40 to [-] people around him. "Master Guo, these are He Li's confidants and will help you together. Please meet Lan Guo Gong soon."

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that this man was actually Lan Yuheng! They all bowed to Lan Yuheng with respect, "See Duke Lan"

Lan Yuheng waved his hand, "Follow me to the county government office immediately to control Huang Suijiang!" When everyone saw that it was Lan Yuheng, they suddenly felt confident, and a group of people hurried to the county government office.

At the gate of the county government office, dozens of people were alert. However, when they saw Chen You and He Li, they relaxed and held their positions and bowed, "It turns out to be Master, why did you bring so many people to the county government office?"

Lan Yuheng smiled and said, "We are the master's subordinates, and we have come here to meet the county magistrate." The guard looked strange, "Are you here to seek errands?" Lan Yuheng smiled and nodded.

Chen You waved his hand, "Okay, is the county magistrate here?"

The guard nodded, "Of course I'll be there. Master, just go in by yourself."

Chen You also breathed a sigh of relief, and swaggered into the county government office with Lan Yuheng and others. Hearing footsteps outside, a man who looked to be in his 40s came out. Belly, you don’t have to look at it, it’s just a corrupt official...

"Master, the situation...are these people...?" Huang Suijiang asked when he saw Chen You, but stopped when he saw dozens of people beside him. Chen You did not answer Huang Suijiang's words.

On the contrary, Lan Yuheng smiled and said, "Are you the magistrate of Ruyang County?" Huang Suijiang looked at Lan Yuheng. "Yes, you are my officer. Who are you? Why are you in the county government office?"

Lan Yuheng nodded, "Very good, catch him!" Several people quickly walked towards Huang Suijiang, and Huang Suijiang's expression changed greatly. "What are you doing? Do you know who I am! Someone is here!"

Hearing Huang Suijiang's yelling, dozens of people came over instantly. Seeing that Huang Suijiang was arrested, they hurriedly shouted, "Let go, sir! Chen You, what are you doing!"

"What are you doing? Open your dog eyes and see clearly! Who is the person in front of you! This is Lan Yuheng, Duke of the Blue Kingdom! Why don't you kneel down and pay your respects!" He Yi shouted.

"Duke Lan?" Everyone was stunned for a moment. Who is this Duke Lan? They didn't come back to their senses for a while, but soon they thought of Ping Xihou!

"Bullshit Lan Guogong! These people are all fake! It's outrageous for you to treat me like this! Why don't you catch these thieves for me!" Huang Suijiang yelled when he saw that something was not going well.

The eyes of those people flickered and they all drew their swords: "Let go, sir! Otherwise we won't be polite!"

Chen You hurriedly explained, "You are crazy! This is Duke Lan! I can testify to this!" Huang Suijiang shouted, "Chen You! You colluded with thieves to do evil to me! You did not mention the crime, but now you are still making it up." Lie! Kill these people quickly!"

A group of people looked at each other, but none of them dared to take action, but there were always a few close friends who couldn't help but draw their swords. Lan Yuheng's eyes turned cold and grabbed one person's hand and twisted it, and screams suddenly sounded. , took the knife from the man's hand and stabbed him in the neck. As the man fell to the ground, no one else dared to move.

"Put down your weapons! If you dare to move forward again! You will be punished for treason!" Lan Yuheng's tone was full of threats. The knives in other people's hands were trembling. Huang Suijiang almost jumped when he saw that they did not dare to take action. I’m going to take action! I’ve been raising you for nothing! If anything happens to me, you’ll all die!”

After hearing these words, those people no longer hesitated, and swung their swords at Lan Yuheng and others with ferocious faces. Lan Yuheng did not hold back his hand, and there was no hesitation between the sword and the sword. In Lan Yuheng's eyes, these people were simply disgusting. Entering the stream is so far behind those soldiers on the battlefield.

As time went by, there were fewer and fewer people on Huang Suijiang's side, and his eyes became a little desperate. He didn't expect that Lan Yuheng was so fierce. One person in the crowd was like killing a chicken. These two NO.30 people Not enough to kill him...

"Let go, sir!" Suddenly the sound of horse hooves sounded outside, and a group of people in armor rushed into the county office. It looked like there were hundreds of people. The situation became delicate in an instant. Huang Suijiang also shouted excitedly, "Lieutenant" You are finally here! Capture these people quickly! They are all traitors and thieves who want to murder me!"
