Chapter 211 Sleepless

Li Gang's face looked a little bad. He thought for a while and said, "Young Master Xiao, otherwise you would go to Hongjiang Mansion to avoid it first, and wait until these pirates are repelled, then come back to preside over the shipbuilding and establish a whaling team. How about it?"

Although the invasion of the pirates is very difficult, the safety of Prince Xiao Zan is also very important.

If the prince had an accident when the pirates invaded, it would be a big deal.

As we all know, Xiao Ding, the emperor of Daliang, only Xiao Zan, only one prince. If there is a problem with his safety, Li Gang's responsibility will be great. At that time, even if he apologizes to the people of Liang, it will not be able to make up for it.

So for Xiao Zan's safety, Li Gang made this suggestion very tactfully.

However, Xiao Zan's face also changed and said, "Does County Magistrate Li look down on me?"

"Oh, Mr. Xiao is too worried, so I have no intention of this." Li Gang quickly explained.

Li Shuang also understood what his father meant, so she quickly smoothed out and said, "Brother Xiao, my father is also considering your safety. Why don't we go to Hongjiang Mansion to take a walk? I heard that Yanyu Tower and Chunfang Tower are going to compete again."

After hearing this, Xiao Zan snorted coldly and said, "Brother Li, a man who has ambitions is not in the kefang. Although it is a good place to play, now facing the invasion of pirates, how can I retreat? How can I face the people of the world in the future?"

Xiao Zan's words made a lot of sense, and Li Gang could not refute it for a while.

At this time, the night was already deep. Xiao Zan yawned and said, "I am a little sleepy, so I will go back and rest first. I believe that County Magistrate Li has a lot of things to be busy with, so I won't disturb you."

After saying that, Xiao Zan turned around and walked outside the prison. After reaching the door, Yang Xiaoping and Yu Qi were waiting there, and the three of them returned to their residence together.

Li Gang frowned. He probably couldn't speak out, so he could only think of other ways.

After looking at his son, Li Gang sighed and said, "Shuang'er, you have a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Do you don't want something to happen to him?"

Li Shuang nodded and said, "Of course, my father has any instructions. Do you want me to knock Brother Xiao out and then send him to Hongjiang Mansion?"

When Li Gang heard this, he was a little surprised and thought to himself that you, a kid, really dared to think about it. The other party is the prince, and he actually wanted to knock him out.

Besides, even if you really have this idea, do you have this ability? Not to mention Yu Qizheng, the guard beside the prince, even the prince himself is skilled in archery and horse skills. Although he is not very good at martial arts, it is still very easy to beat Li Shuang a few times.

"No, you dare to knock the prince out?" Li Gang shouted softly. These words should not be heard by the yamen runners next to him.

Li Shuang said timidly, "I dare not, I'm joking, don't blame my father."

"This kind of joke will not be made in the future. The prince will sooner or later ascend to the heavenly throne and cannot be a rash." Li Gang continued to teach his lesson.

"Yes, what my father said is. Then what should my father tell me to do?" Li Shuang asked, and he was also a little sleepy.

Li Gang sighed again and said, "Starting tomorrow, you will follow the prince without leaving any surprises, do you know?"

"I know, even if you don't say it, I will do this." Li Shuang agreed.

Li Gang nodded and said, "If there is really danger, don't be afraid, but bravely rush forward!"

Li Shuang was stunned. He was a little sleepy. He woke up a little and asked, "What does Father mean?"

"Oh, the prince can't have an accident in our Dongyang County. Even if we fight for our father and son's lives, do you understand?" Li Gang sighed and said.

Li Shuang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "I understand, don't worry, father, my son will not let you down!"

Li Gang nodded, patted Li Shuang on the shoulder, and said, "Good boy, you can understand that you are the best. It's getting late, go back to bed."

"Then I'll go back first, father, you should rest early. Don't get tired of your body. You will have to rely on you to take charge of the overall situation next time." Li Shuang responded.

Afterwards, Li Shuang also walked out, but when she reached the door of the interrogation room, she stopped again.

Li Gang frowned and asked, "Shuang'er, is there anything else?"

Li Shuang looked at the people around her, walked back to Li Gang, and asked whispered: "Father, my son wants to know if I am your biological child?"

After hearing this, Li Gang looked at Li Shuang strangely, and then his face slowly began to change.

Li Shuang naturally noticed this change and subconsciously jumped to the side, and saw Li Gang kicking at the position he had just stood.

Li Shuang thought it was so dangerous that she quickly escaped and ran away without looking back.

"Stupid boy!" Li Gang spat.

Seeing Li Shuang finally ran away, Li Gang came to the clerk Lu Desheng and said, "Old Lu, we are going to work overtime tonight. You have heard Kato's words just now, and the situation cannot be relaxed."

Lu Desheng naturally distinguished the importance of the matter, nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will sort out the transcripts now for sir."

Li Gang also nodded and said, "Take your transcripts with you, let's go to the county government to sort them out. This is not a place."

The prison is dark and humid, and the smell is not good, so it is naturally not as efficient as returning to the county government office.

When he returned to the county government office, Li Gang began to write a report and called the postman from the inn to stand by at any time.

First of all, the first document written by Li Gang was a letter recalling the patrol team. Without the patrol boat, he could only let the pirates come and go, which was very passive.

Then, Li Gang wrote a report to Feng Xueyong, the governor of Hongjiang Prefecture.

In this report, the first thing is to report the results of tonight's interrogation, and the most important thing is to seek help. Otherwise, the yamen runners and constables who are now left behind in Dongyang County may not be able to withstand the attack of the pirates.

After the two letters and reports were written, Li Gang stamped the county government seal. On the other hand, Lu Desheng also copied the interrogation transcript clearly, and Li Gang attached it to the report to Feng Xueyong.

Then, two postmen were called and the letter report was handed over to them, and they told them to deliver it as soon as possible.

Originally, the two postman were woken up from their sleep, and they were quite unhappy, but when Li Gang gave them one or two taels of silver, they went to deliver the letter with great pleasure.

After the work was over, Li Gang asked Lu Desheng to go back and rest, but he stayed in the county government office and could not fall asleep for a long time.

As the head of a county, he was anxious at this time, but he felt that he could not do anything. Could he have to wait for the pirates to invade?

Li Gang, who was full of sorrow, couldn't help but write a poem:

The bright moon is like a jade plate in the sky, and I can't sleep with sorrow. How can I get the art of breaking the enemy in my dream? I stop writing and leaning alone in front of the cold window.
