Prime Minister Chasing Her Husband

The carriage finally divided into two roads. Xie Xuan sent Li Zhiyuan back to the government office first, and then took his troops to the Hou's residence; and Lu Tan parted ways with them when they arrived at the gate of Guazhou City and went in another direction.The genius was dim when they stood at the gate of the Hou Mansion.

"Master Xie, why did you arrive so early? No one in the house has woken up. Have the adults eaten? Why don't we go together at the house?"

"No need, Master Hou, it happened suddenly, and I hope Master Hou will forgive me. I came here today for two things. First, the account book officer of the mansion has already checked it with someone. There is no problem, so please let Master Hou The people in the mansion are ready to pay taxes for this year, and if not, the Japanese officials will send someone back to Kyoto. Second, please give me the roster of the soldiers in the mansion, and take me to the place where Lord Hou is stationed. Look."

"Master Xie, the government has already prepared the taxes, and you can collect them on a list when you are old. But the government soldiers, I'm afraid it's too early to leave now, so it's better to wait until breakfast is over before the old man takes your lord there." Sun Tianyong suggested.

"Oh, I was reckless. I disturbed Lord Hou Qingmeng here early in the morning, so please hand over the token. Lord Lu has already gone to the place where your army is stationed to check. I am afraid that he will be hindered. Please also ask Master Hou to give me a waist card, and let me bring it to Brother Lu." Xie Xuan said.

Sun Tianyong woke up immediately, and said: "No need, the old man is already awake. I will go and get the roster and I will be able to set off. Please wait a moment, sir."

Sun Tianyong resolutely led Xie Xuan to the school grounds, because he knew that Lu Tan had already gone, so he didn't dare to delay at all on the way.At first, I thought that Lu Tan didn't have anyone in his hands, and his subordinates could stop him from entering, but when the two arrived, Lu Tan had already taken the seat of the head coach of the school field, and all the soldiers had already assembled on the training ground.

Sun Tianyong took Xie Xuan up to the school stage, Lu Tan raised his eyebrows and said: "Brother Xie, you are late, you didn't see the good show just now."

"Master Hou was just joking, what good things can we do in our military academy?" Sun Tianyong glanced at his head, everyone was ashamed.

"Of course, the soldiers of the Marquis of Yongjun are well-bred. I was stopped by someone when I wanted to enter the school grounds, so I sent someone to send a fire to the barracks. Don't you see that they just came in? Not only did they come in, they also helped Master Hou counted the soldiers. Xie Xuan, I counted the number of people exactly one thousand, and I don’t want to use the roster. But there are two things I’m curious about, please enlighten me, Marquis Yongjun.”

When Sun Tianyong heard Lu Tan say that he had set fire to the camp, he was already on fire. This barracks had just been repaired two years ago, and it cost a lot of money.However, due to his status, he is the real Lord Marquis, the second rank, and he is just a county marquis. His official rank is not even as good as that of a prefect, so he can only lower his face and say, "Please tell me, Lord Marquis."

"First, when Tai|Zu issued the "Order of the Marquis", it was written in black and white that each county's mansion should have no more than 1000 soldiers, and the camp should not exceed 1000 mu. Just now I rode my horse and ran around the entire barracks. Only then did I realize that the Marquis of Yongjun was really a big hand. The barracks were at least 1 mu, which was four times the size stipulated by Tai | Zu. Those who have led soldiers know that the camp of [-] mu is not to mention [-] people. If you can save [-] people, I would like to ask Marquis Yongjun what is your intention in building such a large camp regardless of the rule of law?"

"Reporting to Lord Hou, the camp was expanded two years ago after the soldiers had a bad relationship. At that time, there happened to be such a piece of land, so it was used. It was not intentional."

"I don't care whether you intend to or not, the crime of privately building a military camp can't be escaped by Yong Junhou. Let me ask you again, just now the barracks were flooded, and I heard some soldiers talking about envying those who are not on the roster and can go home You can still receive the monthly money, Lord Hou, could it be that there are two rosters in the Marquis Mansion of Yongjun?"

"Lord Lu, I'm afraid you heard it wrong. There is no such thing as a pie in the sky. There is no good thing to get something for nothing. I'm afraid those soldiers are just talking about their own wishes, and Lord Hou misunderstood."

"Sun Tianyong, you are the one who is sixty years old, not me. Who is to say that you misunderstood? Come, tell me to bring those two people up." Lu Tan gave an order, and someone brought two people in the uniform of the government soldiers. people come out.

"See Hou Ye, see Hou Ye." The two people didn't know what crime they had committed, and their faces were livid with fright.

Lu Tan got up and walked up to the two of them, and said, "Tell me what you two said I heard just now, in front of you, Marquis of Yongjun."

"Back, back to my lord, I don't know what I said." Both of them shook their heads.

"I don't know, okay. I think you will say you don't know, but I'm magnanimous to give you two another chance, just tell me about the man named He Shun. Of course, you don't have to say anything, but I have to Let everyone know, when I was ten years old, I followed my father to fight the enemy, charged into the battle to take the enemy's head, the most hated people in my life are those foolish and loyal people, do you remember?"

"I remembered, I remembered. I said it. At that time, I thought the camp was on fire. When I was running for my life, I told Kong Wu that I envied He Shun and the others. I had a vacation ten days ago. I don't need to come back now. I get monthly money every month." Leader, although it is five qian less than me, but you can enjoy yourself, and you can also warm up your wife and children." The man was frightened by Lu Tan, and he said everything like a bamboo tube.

"My lord, these are just one-sided remarks and cannot prove anything." Sun Tianyong insisted.

"Sun Junhou said this is a one-sided speech? Then I don't know if the words of [-] men in three villages in the tea garden twenty miles away from Guazhou City are also one-sided remarks?" Lu Tan got up, and Xie Xuan drove to the coach in front of the location. "It's a coincidence that the day before yesterday I received the account book from the adults and went to the tea garden. I heard that in the past, the remaining girls and women picked tea. This year, when there is a good time, all the men in the family have returned. Always Junhou, these are only three villages, who knows if there are such people in other villages. You are so brave, privately increasing the soldiers is a death penalty for killing the nine clans! Come and take down Yongjunhou."

Marquis Yongjun didn't seem to expect that he would be imprisoned under such circumstances. He didn't respond when he was arrested, and he didn't come back to his senses until he entered the government prison.He had just received the "Baohou Order" 1000 days ago, and he thought of a way. Fortunately, the books have been done well these years, and the tax revenue is not a problem at all. The bad thing is that he recruited more soldiers two years ago, so he took the opportunity to renovate The barracks were built and enlarged a lot.These are illegal at first glance, but counting the time, if Xie Xuan and the others really follow the route of implementing the "Baohou Order" on the imperial list, he still has enough time to prepare another barracks. The road turned southeast.He didn't have time to move the camp, so he had to send some government soldiers back first, leaving only [-] people in the camp.Then Hejia Village is the most remote tea garden in Guazhou, who knows how Xie Xuan would go there.

On the other side, it was not easy for Xie Xuan, who had just captured Marquis Yongjun, because the soldiers who had been dismissed the night Marquis Yongjun was arrested turned their backs.
