Yin County, south of Sanjiangkou, at the junction of Yin River and Yongjiang River.

On the bank of the river stands a yamen made of blue bricks and green tiles, covering an area of ​​twenty acres. The yamen faces north toward the direction of Hangzhou Capital. On both sides of the door are two mighty and domineering stone beasts, with their teeth and claws that are daunting.

This is where the Qingyuan Mansion Office is located. The three gilded characters of Qingyuan Mansion on the high-hanging plaque look very simple, and the brushwork is vigorous, which is obviously written by famous masters.

Compared with other prefectures in the Song Dynasty, Qingyuan Prefecture was relatively young because it was changed after Emperor Ningzong ascended the throne. It used to be called Mingzhou.

It has only been about sixty years since the name change to this day.

It was hot at noon, and the government office was also deserted. There were only a few officers and officials working in several wing rooms in the yamen, but they were actually taking a nap.

In the backyard of the government office, there is a garden covering an area of ​​about seven or eight acres. It adheres to the style of Jiangnan gardens. The lotus pond, rockery, small bridges and streams in the garden are reflected in the flowing scenery. There is a pavilion next to the stream hidden by green trees. Under the dense shade of trees, the sun is strong outside but the water in the garden is gurgling and the breeze is gentle. The quiet lotus fragrance floats. When you step into it, you will feel the heat disappear.

At this time, if someone else's wife and Zhao Qi who was sleeping in other people's beds could come in and feel the boundless coolness in the scorching heat, they would definitely not feel the happiness and satisfaction of lying under the shade of peach trees.

Damn, the lives of rich people and poor people are completely different.

His happiness now is just the happiness of a country bumpkin.

And only by lying in such a garden with mountains and water is truly happiness.

But obviously everyone has a different definition of happiness.

For example, Wu Qian, the governor of Qingyuan Prefecture.

Although he was sitting in the pavilion at this time, he felt that the blood in his body was flowing very quickly. The rushing made him feel hot and hard to deal with. In such a cool and quiet state, sweat beads rolled down on his forehead.

There are some papers placed on the stone tables in the pavilion, some with curved maps on them, and some with dense words.

These are the maps of the Great Cannibal collected from Quanzhou and other places last night, as well as some Western experiences written by the Great Cannibal.

The map is secondly. The people of the Song Dynasty were not interested in the territory of the Great Food Kingdom. Anyway, the two countries were tens of thousands of miles apart, and they would never be able to fight each other except for sea ships and commercial exchanges.

However, according to the Western experiences brought back by the servants after collecting and sorting them out, Zhao Qi said that the Mongols might defeat the Great Food at 80% or 90%.

Because according to the rewards of family servants, the number of cannibals gathered in Fuzhou, Wenzhou, Quanzhou and other areas in the past two years have grown rapidly, reaching a scale of thousands. The local government even planned a fence to allow these cannibals to live and govern. According to these cannibals, the Mongols were indeed very barbaric and domineering in the West, and launched three huge wars.

Forty years ago, Temujin personally led an army of 600,000 and his own group of sons and brothers to launch a war to conquer Huashuomo in four directions. It took five years to conquer Huashuomo, and then swept across dozens of Western countries and massacred millions of people.

Twenty years ago, after Ogedei inherited the Khan throne, he launched another western expedition. The 150,000 Mongolian army swept across Europe all the way west, directly attacking Hungary and Poland, capturing and killing countless Western kings and nobles, and plundering wealth as mountains. This unprecedented massacre lasted for a full six years. The war was declared over after Ogedei Khan's death.

Seven years ago, Mongke inherited the Khan throne and launched a war against the West again. Their main target was the Great Food Kingdom. According to the information brought back, the Mongols had captured Persia, Syria and most of the Mesopotamian plains in the past few years. The Great Food Kingdom was actually in danger. The Mongol army had already advanced to Baghdad a year ago.

Most of these big food merchants have fled to the Song Dynasty in recent years, and after they came, they did not seem to have planned to go back. They bought houses in Wenzhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou and other places to intermarry with the locals, and even changed their names to the Han surname, forming a huge ethnic group.

According to some of the great cannibals' own analysis, the great cannibals should have been captured by the Mongols at present, and they don't know what they are now.

"A monster, it's really a monster. Not only did I know about this news, but the Song Dynasty court had never heard of or investigated. Unexpectedly, it was calculated by a fifteen-year-old mountain village boy!"

After looking through the maps and messages collected over and over again, Wu Qian kept muttering and sighing.

If he said that his bet with Zhao Qi was just a whim and he was full of doubts about Zhao Qi's words, what happened later proved that Zhao Qi was indeed not an ordinary person.

As for whether the mountain god appears or the demon possesses it, it is hard to say, but Zhao Qi's extraordinaryness has been fully reflected.

The letter sent by the capital more than ten days ago shocked him and Ye Mengding. After reading it, he not only arranged for his servants to go to the capital to inquire more detailed information, but some friends and students in the capital in the past also wrote letters to inform him of the movements of the capital. It can be said that although he was not in the court, he knew any movements that occurred in the court and the capital.

The thief who left the blood letters in the court door still did not catch them, just like the world has evaporated. I heard that Dali Temple caught some people who posted big-character posters in the neighborhood, but what is funny is that these people are actually beggars. They usually live in the sewers of the streets and alleys of the Imperial City. They all asked questions and said that someone gave them money and posted a tabloid for ten cents. For these beggars who didn't know one big-character letter, posting one for a day is a meal. Therefore, competition among peers is fierce, and hundreds of tabloids are posted overnight. As for the person behind the scenes, no one knows them. They are covered in darkness at night, and no one sees the true appearance.

Although this incident has been a hot topic in the capital, it has begun to calm down in the past two days. After dealing with a group of dereliction of duty and imperial guards, the emperor spread the news to the counties and counties across the world through court reports, requiring officials from various prefectures, prefectures and counties to assist in arresting and arresting prisoners, but there is not even a portrait. In Wu Qian's view, this vicious case that caused a sensation across the country will eventually be left unresolved.
