Chapter 87 Chapter 86: According to the picture to control the water, the father and son seal the good wine, the greedy drink, the meeting with the uncle and nephew

Let's say that Jiang Siye and Mr. Qian Qingping escorted the water bandits onto the boat and came straight to the Yamen of the court. At this moment, Master Yan and Fifth Master Bai both knew that Fourth Master Jiang would surely succeed with such a plan, and they had already sent messengers to wait by the lake to watch.Seeing him wait for the boat to pass through the vortex and come back with waves, he hurried back to the yamen to report.Bai Wuye greeted him and met Mr. Jiang and Mr. Qingqian. He was overjoyed to know that the water bandits had been put down.Going to the study together, I saw Mrs. Yan standing in front of the steps.Mr. Jiang went up to see him, sat down in the house together, and explained the capture of the water bandits. He also mentioned that the father and son of the Mao family in Luoshizhuang were very elegant and knew how to control the water. Come out and help Tong cure the water.Mr. Yan was very happy when he heard that, so he prepared the first-class gifts, and sent Qianzong Qingping to lead 20 soldiers to escort the gifts to Luosi village. When he came to pick up Mr. Gongsun, he invited the Mao family and his son to come with him.Qingping took the order, led twenty soldiers, escorted the gifts, and went to Luosi Bay in a big boat.

Here Master Yan was immediately promoted to the court, and brought Zhenhai Jiao and Wu Ze to the court for interrogation.Wu Ze didn't dare to hide anything, he told the truth.It turned out that the king of Xiangyang sent him to disturb Hongze Lake because he knew how to swim.All the demolition and destruction of dams are intentional.One is to harm the people, and the other is to consume state funds.Fu also pretended to be a water monster, and used iron cones to chisel and leak boats, so that the villagers would not dare to live here, and travelers would not dare to pass by here.It's ridiculous that the king of Xiangyang has no one. Since he has this intention, how can Wu Ze succeed by leading a few water bandits alone?It can be seen that it will not be a major event in the future.

Let's say that Lord Yan immediately took Wu Ze's confession, and then questioned all the water bandits.Although the four water bandits don't know the details, they roughly said the same thing, and they also gave confessions.Send Wu Ze and others to the county prison for strict custody, and when the river project is completed, they will be sent to Beijing together for interrogation.As soon as Wu Ze and others were brought down, Qingping came back and said: Mr. Gongsun has already hired the Mao family and his son, and they will arrive in a short while.Mrs. Yan ordered the horses to be prepared, and together with Fourth Master Jiang and Fifth Master Bai, they went to the lake.

Not long after, the boat landed.When Mr. Gongsun came forward to see him, he must have said that he was not qualified for the job.Lord Yan didn't mention it at all, instead he offered a few words of condolence.Gongsun Ce said again: Mao Jiuxi is very disturbed because the adults are preparing to give generous gifts.There were several spare horses, and everyone came to the government office together on horseback.After entering the study, Mr. Yan has to treat each other like a guest again.Mao Jiuxi moved from one to the other to the third, and he was still ordered to sit at the top, followed by Jiuxi, followed by Mr. Gongsun, Mr. Jiang, and Mr. Bai, and Mao Xiu was the last seat.Chief Qian Huang Kai came in again to pay his respects.Mr. Yan is not only not guilty, but also encouraged many words: Once the river work report is completed, even you and others will be rewarded.Huang Kai thanked him after hearing this, and was still outside as an servant.Master Yan asked Mao Jiuxi how to control the water.Mao Jiuxi calmly took out a geographic map from his pocket and presented it with both hands.Master Yan took a look and saw that the mountains above are uneven, the water is rippling, there are bumps and twists everywhere, the lines are clearly written, the address is wide and narrow, the distance is different, the water surface is wide and narrow, and the depth is different. The painting is very clear, just like in the eyes.Lord Yan was overjoyed when he saw it, and he couldn't praise it enough.I handed it to Mr. Gongsun to read it again, and I felt clearer and clearer, just like getting jewels.So he left Mao's father and son in the government office to help Tong control the water and wait for Lunyin.Mr. Gongsun and Mr. Huang Qian went to the Temple of the Three Emperors to thank the old monk again, donated a hundred gold, and ordered his apprentice to be retrieved as a reward for his release.

In a few days, the imperial decree has been issued, and work should be started immediately.According to the pattern, it should be a vent and a dam, and the result is no difference.Not only will the national treasury not be wasted indiscriminately, but the project will also save trouble.It took only four months, and the level of land was flat, and it was successful.Master Yan returned to Beijing after work, and handed Zhenhai Jiao Wu Ze and the four water bandits to the Ministry of Criminal Interrogation for interrogation.Mrs. Yan handed over the fold, and there was an extra clip, declaring the achievements of Mao Jiuxi, Mao Xiubing, Huang Kai, and Qingping.The Holy Majesty summoned Mr. Yan to give an introductory performance.Renzong was very happy, and awarded Mao Jiuxi the fifth-rank title and Mao Xiu's sixth-rank title. Huang Kai and Qingping should make up for it if there is a lack of defense.Ouyang Xiu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, found out that Wu Zeguo was the envoy of the King of Xiangyang, and he played today.It turned out that after Yan Chasan was promoted to inspector, the head of the Privy Council released Du Wenhui, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment; Ouyang repaired the lack of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment.

When the emperor saw Ouyang Xiu's memorial, he immediately summoned Bao Xiang to discuss: the king of Xiangyang has shown his signs and needs to be eliminated as soon as possible.Bao Xiang also said in secret: "If you want to send troops, it should be obvious. I'm afraid it's not beautiful to stir him up."If Mo Ruo sent someone to investigate secretly, he had to cut off his wings, and then capture him in one go, so that he would be safe.Emperor Zunzo, that is to say, Yan Chasan was awarded the title of Wenyuange University Bachelor, and he specially ordered to visit Xiangyang.Still accompanied by Gongsun Ce and Bai Yutang.Gongsun Ce was appointed as the master, and Bai Yutang was granted the position of fourth-rank guard.The title of the fourth-rank guard left behind was awarded by Jiang Ping.Immediately Chiyi to go.Unexpectedly, the king of Xiangyang has already taken precautions in secret at this time. On the left is the golden-faced God Lan Xiao of Heilang Mountain leading the dry road, and on the right is Feicha Taibao Zhong Xiong and the governor leading the water village. .

It is said that when the Holy Majesty read this chapter of Ouyang Xiu, he suddenly thought of Beixia Ouyangchun from the word Ouyang, so he summoned Bao Xiang to ask about Beixia.Bao Xiangjiang told Bei Xia that he was upright and forthright, that he was a chivalrous man and upholding righteousness.The emperor was very envious.Seeing this, Bao Gong went back to the Yamen and came to the study, asking Bao Xing to invite Zhan guards to tell the matter.Nan Xia went back to the public office and told the heroes.I saw the fourth master Jiang Ping said: "If you want to visit Beixia, you should go to the younger brother, and I will live up to it."What reason?Now the four kings, Ma, Zhang, and Zhao in the Kaifeng mansion can no longer be separated from the left and right; Brother Gongsun and the fifth brother Bai have gone to Xiangyang, and the elder brother Zhan must take care of all affairs in the Kaifeng mansion.If there is anything that is not enough, there is my elder brother who can help and co-organize.As for the younger brother, he is a person with nothing to do, so instead of being idle, why not ask for this job, firstly to visit brother Ouyang, and secondly, the younger brother can also evacuate, wouldn't it be convenient?Everyone finished their plans and went back to Xiangye together.Bao Gong was very happy, and immediately paid the Longbian letter ticket from Kaifeng Mansion.Mr. Jiang wrapped it in oiled paper and put it close to his body. He bid farewell to everyone and planned to go to Mohua Village in Songjiang Prefecture.

After a few days of walking, I was just hungry and thirsty.One day when it was getting late, I went to Yuelai store in Laifeng town and stayed in a single room in the west ear room.During the break, after drinking and eating, I made another pot of tea. I felt that the fragrance was sweet, so I drank a few more bowls.In the middle of the night, I can't help but want to urinate.When I got up and came to the courtyard, I saw someone flicking the door with his finger, but he didn't call out.Master Jiang hides himself and peeps in secret.Seeing the door open, the man walked in close to him and still closed the door.Master Jiang secretly said: "It's suspicious, let's take a look."Regardless of Xiaojie, he flew up to the wall and jumped down lightly.It turned out to be the residence of the shop owner.

I only heard someone say: "Little brother asks big brother for help."Just now in the east ear room, I have recognized that it is the enemy of our members, how can we let him go!Another person replied: "Even so, how can I avenge you?"The man said, "My little brother has seen him very drunk. How about strangling him to death while drunk and leaving him in the wilderness, wouldn't it be easy?"He heard the answer again: "It's not too late to move until he is fast asleep."After hearing this, Lord Jiang withdrew and came over the wall, quietly running to the east ear room.Seeing that there are soft curtains hanging, and there are still lights in the house.Looking in from the crack of the curtain, I saw that the lanterns were knotted, and there was a person lying with his head facing inside, but his stature was not very big.Master Jiang came to the house sideways, and when he cut the lanterns and looked carefully, he was startled. It turned out to be the young hero Ai Hu.Seeing that he was as drunk as mud and his voice was deafening, he thought to himself: At such a young age, drinking too much is a waste of time.If I hadn't been here today, I would have almost lost my life.But I don't know who is going to kill him?Leave him alone, I'll just wait here for him.Pfft, blow out the lamp, and sit with holding your breath.The unlucky Xiaojie came again and couldn't stop.Reluctantly, he closed the single door, and started urinating behind the door.

Because of the long wait, he urinated quite a bit and bleed all over the place.Just after finishing the solution, I only heard some voices outside.But he was standing behind the door, and saw a person coming in, he jumped and jumped forward, the person behind followed closely and bumped into the body in front.Master Jiang closed the door, turned out from behind, and pressed on the two of them, but shouted loudly first: Don't hit me, I am Jiang Ping.The two below are the thieves.Ai Hu was already awake at this time, hearing that it was Master Jiang, he got up quickly.Master Jiang raised his body and told Ai Hu to hold down the two of them.At this time, the waiter in the shop heard someone calling for a thief, so he hurried over with a lantern.Master Jiang asked him to light up the lamp for a photo. One is the shop owner and the other is the shop owner's friend.Master Jiang tied him up with a hook and rope.The clothes of the man underneath were quite wet, but it was Jiang Ye who drowned him.

Mr. Jiang sat down and asked the shop owner, "Why do you listen to the words of the traitor and want to kill my nephew?"What's the point?speak!The shop owner said: Master, don't be angry.The villain's name is Cao Biao, just because my friend's name is Tao Zong, and because someone outside his family was murdered by others, and things didn't go his way, so he came to me.It's all because this little guest came down to my shop, drinking a lot of wine with one pot on the left and the other on the right. Tao Zong had a suspicion in his heart: a small guest officer, why did he drink a lot of wine?Besides, what about when you were young?He came to take a peek quietly, not wanting to be recognized by him, saying that he was an enemy outside his family.So I asked the villain to accompany him as a helper.Mr. Jiang said: "As a helper, you are asking you to help to strangle someone, so you should answer him?"Cao Biao said: "It's nothing, but ask the villain to help him catch him."Master Jiang said: "How can you hide your affairs from me?"The two of you reached a consensus, strangled him to death, and left him in the wilderness; you also said that it would not be too late to move after he fell asleep.Are you doing all you can to help? One sentence made Cao Biao dare not speak anymore, only wondering in his heart.Mr. Jiang said: "I don't think you are a good person, and you will kill a lot of people even if you guarantee it."Talking?Called Ai Hu: Pull that one over, and I will also ask.Ai Hu stepped forward and lifted the man, and took a look: Oh!So it was you?Then he said to Mr. Jiang: "fourth uncle, his name is not Tao Zong, he is Yao Cheng who Ma Qiang sued and escaped from the case."After hearing this, Lord Jiang asked quickly, "Since you are Yao Cheng, why are you also called Tao Zong?"Tao Zongdao: My name was Tao Zong at first, but I changed my name to Yao Cheng just because I voted for the family of Ma Yuanwai.Later, when I realized that the matter outside the staff was serious, I was afraid that I would be involved, so I escaped and regained my real name, still called Tao Zong.Mr. Jiang said: "It can be seen that you are volatile, and you don't even have an idea of ​​your own name."That being the case, I don't have to ask.Turning back to the waiter in the shop, he said, "Go and call the local Baojia."Let me tell you, this is the main offender.Your shopkeeper is fine.You just say that I am sent by the Kaifeng government to fetch people, and tell them to come and see them quickly, and I am waiting here urgently. After hearing this, the waiter in the shop dared to neglect. Not long after, two people came in, beat up a thousand sons and said: "The villain didn't know the arrival of the master on the mission. He was really blind. I hope the master will forgive me."Master Jiang said: "Who is the place between you two?"Only one person said: "The villain Wang Da is the place, he is Baojia, and his name is Li Er."Master Jiang said: "Where do you belong here?"Wang Dao: The ground here is under the jurisdiction of Tang County.Master Jiang said: "What's your official name?"Wang Dao: Our grandpa's surname is He, and his official name is Zhixian.May I ask your master's name?Mr. Jiang said: "My surname is Jiang. I have been ordered by Grand Master Bao of Kaifeng Mansion to visit and investigate important criminals."Coincidentally, it was caught in this store.I have already tied it up here, no matter how hard you have worked hard, take care of the guards, I will send you to the county with you tomorrow morning.When I see you officials, I want to explain immediately.The two said at the same time: "Master Jiang, just rest assured, please rest."Just leave it to the little people, and you will never dare to make mistakes.Not to mention the offender, no matter what the case is, villains dare not play favoritism.Master Jiang said: "Very good."After finishing speaking, he stood up and took Ai Hu's hand, and went to the west ear room.To know what happens next, let's listen to the next chapter.
