The Qi Party has transported a large amount of military supplies to Yunzhou, and now with iron ore, if it is not for the rebellion, there is really no other possibility.

If it's just to support bandits, why should it be so?

Thinking of this, Governor Zhang stood up, paced back and forth in the room, sometimes looking at Jiang Lvzhong, sometimes looking at Xu Qi'an.

"Xu Ningyan, you have created another problem for me. If you encounter this on the way, it will definitely delay your trip."

He said so, but his expression and tone didn't have the slightest blame, but instead he had a strange expression of worry and excitement.

Jiang Lvzhong said: "Your Excellency, it is a great achievement to report this matter to the capital."

"Your credit is indispensable for this." Governor Zhang patted Xu Qi'an on the shoulder vigorously.

Leaving aside the results of the trip to Yunzhou, just because he discovered the case is a great achievement. Even if the trip to Yunzhou yields nothing, it is enough to make up for it, and even has merit.

And all of this is due to Xu Qi'an's keen "sense of smell".

After a while, he calmed down, sat back in his chair, and thought about the current situation. There were three roads before him:

One, pretend that this didn't happen, and continue to go to Yunzhou, so as not to cause trouble.

Second, send someone disguised as the water transport yamen guards of the boat to coerce Fang He to charge into the battle and meet the people who joined in Yunzhou for a while.

Third, go to the Yuzhou Water Transport Yamen to handle the case and arrest the mastermind behind the scenes.

The first option is directly ruled out, and the second option is too time-consuming. To go to Yunzhou by water, you have to bypass the sandbar first, and you won’t be able to get there in ten and a half months. This does not match their itinerary.And the Yuzhou Gang Yun Envoy is the clue that is close at hand.

After Governor Zhang stated his choice, Jiang Lvzhong and Xu Qi'an unanimously agreed.

From the point of view of Governor Zhang at this time, the support of the two of them is enough.

At noon, the official ship arrived at the largest water transport terminal in Yuzhou and slowly docked.

As soon as the barge docked, it immediately attracted the attention of the porters, who flocked to it.But when he saw the fully armed Huben Guard escorting a group of boat guards from the Water Transport Yamen, he retreated in fear.

Leaving some of the Huben Guards to take care of the ships, Governor Zhang and Jiang Lvzhong headed straight to the Yuzhou Water Transport Yamen with a mighty force.

Chapter 185 Reasoning (addition for the leader "Xipiyou")

The Water Transport Yamen is divided into two systems, the Pai'an Department and the Gang Yun Department.The highest-ranking official is the transfer envoy, the fourth rank.There are nearly a thousand people in charge of the Water Transport Yamen inside and outside.

"Water transportation is the most lucrative of all the yamen of the imperial court. In the 20th year of the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court once promoted the sale of officials, and the sales were all related to water transportation." Governor Zhang said in a deep voice while leading the way:

"In the 22nd year of the Yuan Dynasty, Duke Wei and Wang Shoufu jointly banned the policy of selling officials and nobles. But in just two years, there were so many moths who pretended to come in that it was outrageous. Even today, there are still a group of people who eat nothing and steal high positions."

Xu Qi'an didn't pay much attention to Governor Zhang's indignation, but extracted some intriguing points from his words.

It needs two mortal enemies, Wei Yuan and Wang Shoufu, to join forces to suppress it. Who is that person who sells officials?

Undoubtedly, it was Emperor Yuan Jing.

In the history books, there are many emperors who sold their officials and nobles. Emperor Yuan Jing is not an exception. These emperors all have one thing in common: they spend money like water.

Moreover, the evaluation of this kind of emperor in the history books will not be very good, at least they have a critical attitude towards this kind of behavior.

When the Yuzhou water transport yamen arrived, the yamen servant saw a group of men and horses approaching menacingly, headed by a senior official in scarlet robes and a Dageng man with a golden gong embroidered on his chest.

He didn't even ask any questions, and rushed into the yamen to report.

A few minutes later, the transfer envoy of the Yuzhou Water Transport Yamen, a fourth-rank official, hurried out to greet him in person.

This forwarder was over fifty years old, with a gray beard and an ordinary appearance. There was a mole between his eyebrows, which made his ordinary appearance a little special.

"My official, Zhang Xingying, is ordered to go to Yunzhou to investigate the case. This is a book from the cabinet." Governor Zhang took out a thin booklet and handed it over.

"It turns out to be the governor. I'm sorry, please come inside." After reading the book, the transfer envoy respectfully handed it back, then turned sideways, and made a gesture of please.

A group of people entered the yamen, and the transfer envoy led Governor Zhang to the hall of the yamen. After sitting down and watching tea, the transfer envoy smiled and said:

"Your Excellency Governor is exhausted, but you plan to rest in Yuzhou for a few days?"

He observed the governor from the capital calmly, he only felt that the other party was a serious and boring person, and he had never smiled since meeting him.

Are adults from the capital so arrogant?

.... This transport envoy still doesn't know the seriousness of the matter.Governor Zhang waved his hand: "Whether I will stay here or not depends on the progress of the case."

"How do you say that?" The transfer envoy asked in amazement.

Governor Zhang looked out of the hall and said loudly: "Bring it up!"

Together with the bearded man Fang He, 62 members of the Yellow Flag Gang were brought up. He was slightly or severely wounded, and looked sluggish.

Seeing these people, the transshipment envoy stood up in surprise and bewilderment, pointed at them, and looked at Governor Zhang: "What's the matter with these people, why are they wearing the uniforms of my Water Transport Yamen?"

"This is the reason why I visited the transfer envoy."

At that moment, Governor Zhang informed the transfer envoy of the incident in detail, and the latter turned pale after hearing this, and fell back to his seat, muttering: "What should I do, what should I do..."

Tsk tsk, the skill of nourishing qi is too bad. Compared with the officials I have dealt with in the capital, this transfer envoy is like a bronze...Xu Qi'an complained in his heart while observing the expression of the transfer envoy and making subtle moves.

Governor Zhang said in a deep voice: "Lord Transit Envoy, I ask you, do you know about this case?"

The transfer envoy hurriedly shook his head, trying to explain: "I don't know about it, Governor..."

Governor Zhang ignored them, and turned to look at the white-clothed warlocks in the crowd. The white-clothed warlocks nodded slightly, indicating that they were not lying.

After pondering for a while, Governor Zhang said: "Is the Gangyun envoy in the yamen?"

Only then did the transshipment envoy turn his attention to the culprit, furious that a second-five boy had appeared under his command, and said in a deep voice:

"Gangyun envoy Yan Kai is taking a rest today and is not in the yamen. I will immediately take the governor to arrest this beast."

.....

Gang Yun envoy Yan Kai's mansion, Governor Zhang waved his hand to let the tiger guards disperse and surround Yan's mansion.

Yang Muhua, the transfer envoy of the Water Transport Yamen who came with him, also brought twenty catchers.

After the tiger guards dispersed, Jiang Lvzhong directly led people to break into the door and knocked down all the servants and guards in the mansion.

The Tiger Benwei, the catcher of the Water Transport Yamen, and the watchman swept across the entire Yan Mansion, swift as thunder, without giving the other party a chance to react.

"My lord, I'm in the study."

The catcher of the Water Transport Yamen was the first to find Yan Kai. When Xu Qi'an rushed to the study with his colleagues, he was a step late. He saw the blood splattered all over the ground, thick as fast.

Gang Yun made Yan Kai lie powerlessly on the big chair, with his head tilted, a deep wound on his neck, and a dagger fell on the ground to his right.
