Chapter 165 Near the Township
It was late at night and people were finally safe.
Yan Hanyu was still scared when she thought of what happened during the day. This time, thanks to the fourth uncle who appeared in time. Although there was no danger at that time, a group of water bandits came strong and did not hurt people, but only for money and had no worries about their lives. But the more serious injuries were some civilians.
What she didn't expect was that the fourth uncle had a strong martial arts skills and was actually quite famous in the world. The fourth uncle's martial arts skills looked no worse than Zhao Feng and Deng Guang.
She didn't know if it would be useful to persuade the fourth uncle to go back today. She chose to believe in the fourth uncle, believe that he would keep his promise, and would never regret what he promised her, and believe that he would not secretly take Han'er away.
The Xiao family's property was robbed, and the Xiao family also reported the case, but the water bandits in Jianghuaiwan were originally a major concern in Sizhou, Huaiyin and Chuzhou. The imperial court sent officials to investigate three or four years ago, but in the end there was no result. Later, when another official came, there was no result, and he dragged it again and again.
Later, the water bandits committed crimes intermittently. They rarely took action on official ships, and more were merchant ships. For example, there were four major merchants in Bianjing. The rich and scattered families could have land outside the city of Bianjing and mansions in the city. It is conceivable that many rich families were robbed of money, but the other one was not in business in the Jiangnan area, so they were naturally not robbed.
I heard that these water bandits had their eyes all over Jiangdong and Huaibei. Which ships passed by the Huai River and when they arrived, and those water bandits received news in advance and robbed silver and robbed objects as fast as possible. Even if the merchant ships passing by the Huai River were all equipped with guards and were prepared, they could not withstand the strength of the bandits.
Even if two water bandits were sent to the government, it was too difficult to get a clue from them. They were not caught before, but the final result was either crazy in prison or dead.
Therefore, it is difficult for the Xiao family to regain the robbed thing.
The Xiao family was from Xiaozhuang, Zhenzhou, and was a merchant. They were originally close neighbors with the Han family. The Han family’s ancestors collected herbs. Later, they had a palace imperial physician, and gradually moved their family to Bianjing.
The Xiao family had no time to send someone to send a letter back to explain the robbery of property. They still had to hurry up on the road ahead, and they followed Yan Hanyu and the others almost all the way.
The autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cool, and the grass and trees are shaking and dew turns into frost.
The sound of autumn trees and the cold mountains.
After that, the journey was calm and quiet until Bianjing.
Xiao Meng took the initiative to make friends along the way, but Yan Hanyu couldn't ignore her.
Zhao Feng also caught up with him halfway through.
Yan Hanyu only heard about the Yangzhou incident. Zhao Feng prohibited him from exercising public office because of the suspicion of the magistrate of Yangzhou, and handed over a public document to sue the magistrate of Xian for being killed. He received the order to return to Bianjing. He withdrew the official position of Chang Zhong, the magistrate of Yangzhou, and escorted him to Bianjing for trial. He also sent more than ten Longshen Guards to Yangzhou to find the whereabouts of Xian County.
When things were done in Yangzhou, Zhao Feng met the Prince of Xian on his way back to Bianjing.
This was agreed upon in advance by them. Prince Xian was rescued outside the city and survived from death.
Prince Xian returned safely, and perhaps Chang Zhong would not be sentenced for this reason, but Prince Xian had an accident in Chang Zhong's mansion and was dismissed from his official position.
When he arrived outside Bianjing City, Yan Hanyu said goodbye to Xiao Meng.
Xiao Meng also asked her where she lived, and she would visit her house another day.
Yan Hanyu only said, "There is really not enough to mention the small household."
