The rise of the poor

Chapter 1173 Private Visit
The sun was three poles high, there was not a cloud in the sky, and the golden sun shone on the sky and the earth.A group of people dressed as businessmen came to the west gate of Jingnan County, headed by a middle-aged man in his thirties.This person is Tan Lun, the magistrate of Taizhou, and he pretends to be a shopkeeper.Behind Tan Lun, there were five people posing as businessmen, the leader was General Zuo Zhenzuo, and the other four were soldiers with extraordinary skills.

Today, Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, came to Jingnan for a private visit.

Yesterday, shortly after Tan Ma Xiaobing reported the Jingnan battle report, Tan Lun received an official document from Zhu Pingan, the magistrate of Jingnan County.

The records in the official document battle report are more detailed, and the data are more specific, but firstly, the matter is important, and secondly, the content of the Jingnan battle report is too unexpected, especially the capture of the Japanese pirate leader 790, which is unbelievable. Tan Lun still decided Check it out for yourself.Therefore, Tan Lun took Zuo Zhen and others early this morning to take off their official uniforms, dressed up as businessmen, and came to Jingnan County for a private visit to check whether the battle report was true or not.

After Tan Lun came to the west gate of Jingnan, he did not enter the city in a hurry, but stopped in front of the west gate to check.

Although several days have passed, a faint smell of blood can still be smelled at the west gate of Jingnan County.

The traces of the battle on the city gate, such as knife chopping, ax chopping and burning, etc., are still vivid. The stone bricks in front of the city gate seem to be soaked in blood. Although it can be seen that Jingnan County has been washed many times with clean water, the stone bricks are still blood red. trace.There are also many traces left by the battle on the walls on the left and right sides of the city gate. There are still traces of fire on several sections of the city wall, which are completely black. The soil under the city wall is blood red. There was a faint smell of blood in the smell, which should be caused by the soil being soaked in blood.

The scene in front of the west city gate proved to everyone that the battle in Jingnan was brutal and intense that day.

"Fu Zun, judging from the traces in front of the city gate, the battle to defend the city of Jingnan was very tragic that day."

Zuo Zhen carefully observed the battle traces in front of the city gate, pointed to one of the traces, and said softly to Tan Lun.

"Hehe, there is no mansion honor here. I am the shopkeeper of Taizhou Fujing Tea Shop."

Tan Lun shook his head with a slight smile, and patted Zuo Zhen on the shoulder, reminding him that this was a private investigation.

"Yes, Master." Zuo Zhen clasped his fists and changed his address, "Judging from these traces, the battle to defend the city of Jingnan was very tragic that day."

Tan Lun nodded slightly, and said softly, "Indeed, I believe in the Jingnan battle report a little more."

"Come on, let's go in and take a look." Tan Lun said to Zuo Zhen and others after looking at the city gate for a while.

"Master, please." Zuo Zhen stretched out his hand to ask Tan Lun to go first.

A group of people walked into Jingnan County, and as soon as they entered Jingnan County, they couldn't help but marvel at the hustle and bustle of Jingnan.

Jingnan County does not look like it has experienced the Japanese plague at all.

There are people coming and going on the streets of Jingnan County. Although it is not as busy as Taizhou Prefecture, there are still pedestrians on the street. Roadside stalls for picking goods and bargaining. There are row upon row of buildings on both sides of the street, there are teahouses, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The traffic is constant, and it seems that the business is also very prosperous. , Selling goods articulately.

Tan Lun walked for a while and noticed that the buildings in the city were intact, pedestrians were constantly coming and going, and the business of the shops was booming. From this we can see that Jingnan was indeed never captured by Japanese pirates."

Seeing that there was no sign of the fall of Jingnan County, Tan Lun felt a lot more relaxed. Even if the Jingnan Battle Report had water, as long as Jingnan County was indeed not captured by Japanese pirates, he would feel much more at ease.

"What the boss said is that there is no sign of Japanese pirates taking over Jingnan City." Zuo Zhen clasped his fists and shook his head slightly after speaking, and said suspiciously, "However, the Jingnan Battle Report captured the number of Japanese pirate heads. I am afraid that there is a lot of water, and it is not easy for Jingnan to keep it. It is difficult to say that it is difficult to capture 790 five heads of Japanese pirates. It is just that Tan Mayan has counted the heads himself, and there are indeed 790 five heads. The heads are not Japanese pirates, so these heads"

Zuo Zhen is the general of the new army. He has learned how powerful the Japanese pirates are in the defense of Taizhou Prefecture. The new army under his command is not an opponent of the Japanese pirates. When defending the city, more than half of them were killed or injured, but they only beheaded more than 200 heads of Japanese pirates.Jingnan County temporarily recruited people to defend the city, not only defending the county, but also captured 790 five Japanese pirate heads? !In this regard, he does not believe it.

He suspected in his heart that most of the 790 five Japanese pirate heads, even the vast majority, were filled with the heads of dead or injured civilians.

However, he didn't have evidence, so he didn't say anything, but the hint was obvious in his words.

If these heads are not Japanese pirates, then there is no need to talk about these heads, they must have been impersonated with the heads of innocent people.

Kill the good and take the credit!
In fact, without Zuo Zhen's reminder, Tan Lun also had this suspicion. Tan Lun had already suspected this when he heard the Jingnan battle report.

Throughout the dynasties, even in this dynasty, there is no shortage of absurd and cruel acts of killing the good and pretending to be meritorious.Tan Lun remembered clearly that he had read in the Dibao that Zhu Pingan had impeached Zhao Daying a few months ago for his crimes, which had a great influence.

Tan Lun hated the act of killing good people and taking meritorious service.Although Zhu Pingan made great contributions to the defense of the city, restored Taiping County, and made indelible contributions to saving his political career. However, if it is found out that Zhu Pingan is indeed suspected of murdering good men and taking meritorious service, Tan Lun will never tolerate it. .

Killing a good person and pretending to be meritorious is no different from a beast!This kind of people must not be tolerated, otherwise the people under the rule will suffer.

Zhu Pingan, Zhu Pingan, I hope you will not become the kind of person you impeached
Tan Lun looked in the direction of the Jingnan County Government Office, with complicated expressions in his eyes, and finally became cold.

"Come on, I see that the teahouse is the busiest with people coming and going. Let's go sit in the teahouse and inquire about the news."

After Tan Lun walked along the street for a while, he noticed that there was a teahouse named "Qiwanzhai" not far in front. Concentrate, the news is the most well-informed, so he turned his head and said to Zuo Zhen and others.

When Fu Zun spoke, Zuo Zhen and others naturally had no objections, and soon the group walked into the "Qiwanzhai" teahouse.
