Lingzhou Governor's Office is located in Beicheng, not too far from the imperial envoy's office.

"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, Uncle Fang is not in the government office. He went to Jianchang Mansion yesterday for official business. Don't take Mr. Liu with you. If there is an emergency, I can rush to Jianchang Mansion to report it now."

In the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, Chief Shi Zhou Wen knelt down to plead guilty.

At the Furong Banquet, Pei Yue pointed out the loopholes in Xue Tao's words and pointed out the local commercial tax in Lingzhou, which made Zhou Wen and Xingyang prefect Zhao Xianhong sweat. After the imperial envoy's honor guard arrived in Lingzhou, Pei Yue has been living in seclusion, and all entertainment has been handed over to

Zheng Qin Xu, from then on the local officials in Lingzhou looked down upon this deputy poet, and Zhou Wen was no exception.

However, Pei Yue's short but precise two paragraphs at the Furong Banquet hit what Zhou Wen was most worried about, making him no longer dare to look down on this young powerful man from Kyoto, so he was extremely cautious at this moment.

Pei Yue stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the plaque "Ming De Wei Xin" on the main hall, and said calmly: "Zhou Changshi, the villagers of Linqing wantonly besieged the imperial envoy's subordinates. How should we deal with this matter?"

Zhou Wen felt dizzy when he heard the word "siege" and said in a trembling voice: "Master Pei, what exactly caused this incident?"

Pei Yue chuckled lightly, his eyes suddenly sharp: "These subordinates followed me from Kyoto, and went through everything in Yongzhou and Yunzhou. They always abide by their duties and never violate the rules. I don't think they have the courage to act recklessly in Lingzhou. Zhou

Chang Shi, since Xue Fangbo and Liu Biejia are not in Xingyang, can you please mobilize the Xiang army to drive away the rebels?"

Zhou Wen looked flustered, wondering: "Sir, I have no right to mobilize Xiang troops, let alone the specific situation in Linqing -"

Pei Yue didn't wait for him to continue, and said bluntly: "Zhou Changshi, do you want to say that it was a rebellion by the Imperial Envoy Army?"

Zhou Wen's eyes widened, he shook his head repeatedly and said: "This official has no such intention."

Even if you give him a hundred courages, he would not dare to say that Pei Yue's people made a mistake in this matter. No matter what the origins of those sergeants are, they can be regarded as part of the emperor's personal army because they are responsible for guarding the imperial envoys. Such status is regarded as

a group of townships

The nature of the matter can be easily judged by the people's siege. Although Zhou Wen was promoted by Xue Tao and was loyal to the governor, he did not dare to speak freely on such a big issue of right and wrong.

Disobeying Xue Tao's will may result in loss of official position, while making mistakes in such matters may result in death. Zhou Wen knew this very well.

Pei Yue did not continue to question, but said coldly: "Zhou Changshi, I just want to inform you. Since no one in Lingzhou is willing to solve this matter, I will do it myself."

After saying this, he turned around and left, completely ignoring Zhou Wen's repeated shouts from behind, "Your Majesty, please stay."

Outside the governor's office, fourteen soldiers stood like javelins.

Pei Yue stepped out, looked at Deng Zai and said: "Issue an order."

"yes!"

A bunch of fireworks with a strange shape exploded over the governor's mansion.

The fifteen riders left quickly.

Zhou Wen, the chief minister, staggered out and looked at the backs of Pei Yue and others. He really wanted to drag Pei Yue to the Governor's Mansion, but the decisiveness of this young powerful man was beyond his expectation.

The momentum made him unable to stop him, and he could only watch the other party leave. Now he could no longer care about regrets and worries, but he just didn't know how to explain to Xue Tao.

Xue Tao and Liu Renji did not leave Xingyang yesterday, but set out early today. They told Zhou Wen about this before leaving. At this time, thinking of the distance between Linqing and Xingyang, the long history suddenly understood the mystery.

It's a pity that Pei Yue has never been indecisive.

When the fireworks exploded over the Governor's Mansion, the imperial envoy's office not far away suddenly became noisy.

Excluding the third team, the 350 people selected from the south camp of the Beijing Army and the 50 disciples sent by the fallen nobles lined up outside the office at an extremely fast speed, all of them as tall as pines and cypresses.

, dare not relax at all.

In a single-family courtyard of the back house of Xingya, Lin Shuyue listened thoughtfully to the movements outside. The maid standing next to her asked curiously: "Miss, is your lordship going out on business?"

Lin Shuyue gave her a meaningful look, shook her head and said, "Don't be troublesome."

The maid lowered her head and responded: "Yes, Miss."

Although Lin Shuyue didn't know Pei Yue's arrangements in Lingzhou, the two talked a lot that night, and she probably knew the situation Pei Yue was facing. At this time, she felt the restlessness in the office, and she found that her mood was very complicated.

On the one hand, he still feels a little guilty about Chen Xizhi, but on the other hand, he hopes that Pei Yue can successfully open up the situation in Lingzhou.

At the same time, on the other side of the house behind the yamen, Qin Xu was sitting upright, seemingly as stable as a mountain, sipping the top-grade fragrant tea in a cup, completely ignoring the anxious look of his entourage, and still unable to hide the loss in his eyes.

"Why are you panicking? Pei Qin has his own ideas."

Seeing the panic on his followers' faces, Qin Xu finally couldn't help but scold him in a low voice.

"Sir, what happened that caused all the entourage to be mobilized?" The personal entourage is a son of the Qin family, and the origin can even be traced back to the ancestors of the Qin family, so he is not as timid as the ordinary entourage.

The movement in the office could not be hidden from everyone. Qin Xu's eyes moved slightly, then he shook his head and sighed: "Don't worry about it. Since you didn't interfere all the way, what can you do now?"

The relative sighed: "Having said that, didn't I say that before -"

Qin Xu suddenly frowned and said: "Shut up!"

"Yes." After all, I didn't dare to disobey.

Qin Xu looked outside and suddenly sighed, not knowing what the purpose was.

Outside the yamen gate, four hundred people stood tall and solemn.

Fifteen riders came like a whirlwind.

"Wait!"

"have to!"

A strong man at the front of the team saw Pei Yue's figure and immediately shouted an order, and the four hundred people behind him responded in unison.

Pei Yue rode across the long street, more like reviewing a team of 400 people, then reined in the reins and said solemnly: "We may face a difficult situation today, do you dare to fight?"

These people are not new recruits who have just joined the army. Except for the fifty descendants of fallen nobles who were accepted by Pei Yue before leaving Beijing, the rest are all warriors of the Southern Camp. Almost all of them are Gu Liang who served as the Southern Camp.

As a confidant who was brought in as the battalion commander, there is no need to worry about loyalty. Combat strength and will are both the best choices.

Hearing Pei Yue's words at this moment, everyone responded in unison and loudly: "Fight to the death and never retreat!"

Pei Yue nodded with satisfaction, then waved: "Linqing County, let's go!"

Hundreds of riders responded with a roar, and the sound shook the sky.

No matter what impression Pei Yue gave people before, when he led these elite soldiers from Xingyang City and headed straight for Linqing County, someone finally realized that this was a ruthless man who dared to fight against the bandits at the age of fourteen.

Human beings are not playboys who rely on the power of their fathers to act tyrannically.
