"Husband, is there anything I can do to help?"

Cheng Weiyao was holding a fan in her hand, but her eyes were fixed on Wen Chengyun on the stake. She was a little worried about his condition.Looking at his fair skin, I'm afraid he won't last long.

Hearing Cheng Weiyao's voice, Wen Chengyun slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at the yamen servants who deliberately avoided, and opened his thin lips lightly: "Madam, please take good care of your family."

These are superficial words, but the lips moved slightly and silently, and they said four other words: stand still.

The big rock in Cheng Weiyao's heart was loosened. Wen Chengyun is not a person who takes one step at a time. Since he can give this answer, he must have a backup.

She didn't ask any more questions, but just quietly accompanied her for a while, and then reluctantly left after the yamen servants urged her.

Wen Chengyun's back-up is Wu Qi, and the news in the restaurant is also well-informed. Since he knew Wen Chengyun was arrested, he had already sent a letter back to the capital to ask for help.

But the capital is far away from Qingshi Town, which can be said to be as high as the emperor, and it is impossible for Wu Qi to watch his master suffer while waiting for the rescue time.

In the middle of the night, the downtown area was deserted and deserted, except for Wen Chengyun who was tied to a stake, there were only two unlucky government servants who were on duty on the night shift.

"We didn't catch this man, but we wanted us to guard him. How could it be more comfortable to be a soldier than a yamen servant? Hey~ It's so cold these days. Why don't you marry a woman? At this time, there is still someone I know to send some clothes over..."

Qingshi Town is located in the south, and there is a large temperature difference between day and night. When the yamen servants came to work, it was still broad daylight and the sun was scorching. Naturally, they were dressed lightly.But once it was night, when the night wind blew, the bones of his body did tremble a little.

"Are you still talking about me? Why don't you see me marrying one? How can we get a wife with money? The matchmaker has to take a detour when she sees me..."

The yamen servant chattered and knocked to divert his attention, but his body would not warm even if he talked. After chatting for a while, the two of them decided to let one of them go back to pick up the tool for beating the floor.

"Go and come back quickly, my eyelids are fighting. After you get it back, you will be on duty for the first half of the night, and I will be on duty for the second half of the night. We will work in shifts..."

Two yamen servants left one, Wu Qi seized the opportunity, and a blowing needle flew into the neck of the guard yamen servant.

The yamen servant touched his neck and passed out after muttering that there were still a lot of mosquitoes in the middle of the night.

"Master, the capital has replied to the letter, and the governor was called to investigate the case, and he will arrive tomorrow at the most..."

Wu Qi approached quickly, and while talking, put the servant's body on the chair, pretending to be naturally lethargic.

The supervisory officials are mainly divided into two parts, one part is in the central government, which is often referred to as the imperial doctor, as the highest supervisor.

The power and status of this official position in the previous dynasty was second only to the left and right prime ministers.Most of the military and state affairs and the formulation of larger strategies, the emperor will discuss and decide with the prime minister and the censor.

The other part is the governor mentioned by Wu Qi just now, they were assigned to various prefectures and counties to serve as supervisors.The main purpose is to inspect the princes, county magistrates, and local tyrants who are entrusted outside.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the governor is the eyes and ears of the emperor scattered all over the world, and the selection requirements are very strict. They are all veritable royalists and loyal.

"Ah."

Wen Chengyun responded softly, and it was not difficult to hear that his throat was still a little hoarse. Wu Qiliankang reached the water bag and prepared to untie Wen Chengyun at the same time.

"My lord, rest well tonight, I'm here to support you."

Wu Qi was very thoughtful, and even came here with a human skin mask. He thought that he was tied up here for Wen Chengyun, stealing the dragon and turning the dragon into a phoenix. According to the loose appearance of this gang of yamen servants, he should not be able to find out.

Wen Chengyun nodded, and half agreed, he did intend to let Wu Qi stand here for a while, but at least he had to come back before the sky turned bright.

Now that Lieutenant Li and his group felt that they were already in control, they would probably relax a little bit on their defenses.These days when he came to Qingshi Town, it's not that he didn't want to stay overnight to visit the military camp.But the defense is tight, and when you touch it occasionally, there is no substantial gain.

Wu Qi deliberately picked Wen Chengyun's white clothes of the same style and stood there wearing a human skin mask under the cover of night, and there were really some fish-eye pearls that couldn't be distinguished.

Wen Chengyun left the scene as quickly as possible and rushed to the military camp outside the city. Climbing over the city wall was already a job with ease.

It is impossible for troops to be stationed in towns and counties, and the barracks are all set up in the border area, not far from Qingshi Town.

In the big tent in the army, it can be said that the singing and dancing are peaceful, and the military prostitutes twist their waists and try their best to flatter them, all wanting to cling to the man in the main position.This is General Liao Yu is organizing some of his henchmen to relax.

"General, you haven't seen the useless appearance of King Qingping. According to the current day, at most in the next day, he will lose his life. Poor Prince, tsk tsk..."

Lieutenant Li's cheeks flushed from drinking, and he didn't forget to smack his lips to express his disdain when Wen Chengyun was mentioned.So what about the emperor's bloodline, wouldn't he have to die in this barren land in the end?
"Drink less, and bring someone to see it yourself tomorrow morning. I don't worry about those people in Qingshi Town doing business."

Liao Yu frowned slightly, and said something softly, but this year the brothers are all happy, and he doesn't want to spoil the nature.

"How about we just make a big one and use King Qingping to make a fortune? Even if the old emperor doesn't care about face, at least he won't allow his blood to fall into the hands of bandits, right?"

A confidant who was too drunk stood up in a daze and made a proposal. This proposal was bold. Extorting money from the imperial court in the name of bandits was reasonable and could just make up for the gap in military pay.

Liao Yu picked up his wine glass and squinted his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about the credibility of this plan. At present, Wen Chengyun is in exile, and there is a high probability that the court does not know his situation.

I can use this place to be far away from the capital and have no news, and charge Wen Chengyun with a murder of passion and then colluding with the bandits to escape from Qingshi Town. As for blackmailing the court, it is naturally because the talks with the bandits failed.

"How much money is missing in the account? I see that the morale of the soldiers has been unstable recently, and most of them are worried about the problem that the military salary cannot be paid normally..."

This is a big event that cannot be easily decided, and it has to be done beautifully. Liao Yu still decided to see how big the loopholes in the account need to be filled.

If it is still within the controllable range, he would rather solve Wen Chengyun, the deadly enemy, quietly without disturbing the emperor...
