Because Zhou Bo decided not to deduct the monthly salaries of officials and even the detainees, and distributed them according to the original amount every month, but I don't know what happened this month, and the salary sent down from above is finally lacking. In order to ensure his prestige, Zhou Bo decided to deduct the insufficient monthly salary from his monthly income to fill it, and strive to send a lot of money to everyone.

This move quickly spread throughout Xiying, and almost all of them were impressed by the new Grand Duguan, and it seems that the new Dadu Guan is really an honest and honest person, and he will have a good life in the future. In fact, whether it is a charge or a young man, doing those things of stealing military rations is a last resort, and it seems to be cowering and unable to see the light, especially now that the disaster has eased, the price of grain and grass has also begun to decline. Instead of doing these bad things every day, it is better to take the monthly salary in peace.

It didn't take long for Zhou Bo's prestige and reputation in Xiying to lay a solid foundation, and the Yong men also praised his deeds in private. Honesty and honesty are essential, and even more importantly, they often personally patrol at night and show compassion for their subordinates.

It's just that although there is a good form inside Xiying, outside Xiying, there are two different forces that are ready to move, and they have coveted Zhou Bo for a long time, and they want to kill him all the time.

Zhai Xuan had always thought that his qi was much greater than Li Hui's, but it turned out that he was wrong. Ever since Zhou Bo had changed from his man to his rival Li Hui's man in the blink of an eye, he had been pondering how to fight this traitor all these days. For him, hitting Zhou Bo can not only relieve the hatred in his heart, but also a blow to Li Hui's forces.

The first month. It's not that Zhai Xuan doesn't want to deal with Zhou Bo immediately, it's just that he really can't think of any way, and Zhou Bo has just taken the position, so rashly dealing with this person will not only not be able to effectively hit Li Hui, but on the contrary, it will have a bad impact on himself. Until the end of September. A person quietly came to Zhai Xuan's line and offered him a plan before he decided to start his plan.

The person who offered advice to Zhai Xuan was none other than Xu Wenbo.

However, with Xu Wenbo's current identity and his own IQ, how could he have come up with a plan to frame others? You must know that when Xu Wenbo framed Zhou Bo a few months ago, he was beaten by Zhou Bo, and as a result, he almost lost his life.

This time, Xu Wenbo specially found Zhai Xuan, in fact, because his good brother Xu Xiangtian was behind his back and gave him advice. Xu Wenbo is a person who must repay his eyes. He was in charge of most of the Xiying capital, and he actually said that if it was gone, it would be gone, this was all to blame on that damn Zhou Bo, who was unforgiving, and even Zhai Xuan planned to let him go, but he didn't expect that he would bite with a thousand knives. Therefore, when his brother agitated him for the second time, he did not think much of it. and was eaten away by the wrath of revenge.

Xu Xiangtian used his brains this time, he knew that his brother was a wine bag and a rice bag. Whether it is thinking about things or doing things, it is not thoughtful, so under the experience of the previous car, I can only plan it myself. Although he is a playboy himself, he is well versed in the world and soon thinks of an extremely vicious conspiracy.

Xu Wenbo told his brother about the framing plan in an orderly manner, and then his brother Xu Wenbo passed through his previous connections in politics. got the opportunity to meet Zhai Xuan, and naturally told Zhai Xuan about this plan.

Zhai Xuan was worried about dealing with Zhou Bo, and now that the method was sent to the door, of course he wouldn't think about anything. What's more, he also knew the relationship between Xu Wenbo and Zhou Bo, so he didn't doubt his intentions. But after listening to Xu Wenbo's plan. He also felt that this plan was a bit risky, and if it was not operated well, he was afraid that he would lose something.

But after a few days of consideration, Zhai Xuan still decided to implement this plan. On the morning of the third day of October, he sent people to Xingou and summoned Dong Hao, who was stationed in Xingou, to Ezhou City.

Since Dong Hao was promoted to the commander of the Pingsheng Quadrant, he has been trying his best to form the name of the Flatwin Quadrant. Although since the defeat of Xiangyang, there have been countless refugees who have fled to Ezhou, and these refugees are ready to be transformed into soldiers. It's just that there are a lot of soldiers, but there is an extreme shortage of funds and materials to maintain the whole army.

Although Zhai Xuan supported Dong Hao's expansion of the fourth army, and at the same time saved a sum of money, grain and grass, but this money and materials were not enough at all, and even maintaining the original Dong family army was a little stretched. Dong Hao is also a smart person, he did not have a hot brain after he was promoted to the commander of the capital, and he recruited the entire army at once, just on the basis of the original army, and expanded the establishment of an army.

However, the newly established army not only had no weapons, but also was extremely lacking in military uniforms and tents, and many soldiers slept directly outside the barracks, carrying a wooden stick on their shoulders during daily drills. These are all things that can be done, and when the Song court eases up, the materials will always be replenished. And the only thing that cannot be compromised is food and grass.

In the establishment of an army, 2,500 people have to eat, and the reason why these refugees have sharpened their heads and want to join the army is nothing more than to mix a bite of food. Dong Hao is also most worried about this problem now, even if Zhai Xuan did not summon him, he would personally come to Ezhou City and ask Zhai Xuan for a solution to this problem.

After meeting with Zhai Xuan on the third day of junior high school, Dong Hao left Zhai Xuan's line with a solemn mood and returned to Xingou. He couldn't close his eyes for a long time this night, and the words that Zhai Xuan said to himself kept lingering in his mind.

Early the next morning, Dong Hao went to Ezhou City again with a tired state. This time, he did not enter the city to see Zhai Xuan, but came to Xiying according to Zhai Xuan's instructions and met Zhou Bo, the capital of Xiying.

The commander of the Xiang army is the official position of the fifth grade, and most of Zhou Bo's actual positions are professional titles rather than titles, but he also leads the military rank of the right military doctor. Just a few months ago, when Dong Hao met Zhou Bo for the first time, the latter was defeated in Xiangyang City and fled all the way to Sizhou's small preparation general, and just a few months later, he jumped several levels in a row, and suddenly became a right martial arts doctor.

When Zhou Bo heard that Dong Hao had come to Xiying in person, he immediately rushed to the gate of Xiying and greeted Dong Hao in person.

"Dong Shuai, don't come unharmed. I have been thinking about Dong Shuai for a long time, and it is really an honor for Dong Shuai to visit today. He walked down the steps of the Xiying gate quickly, personally took the reins from Dong Hao, and then welcomed Dong Hao into the Xiying with a smile.

A tired smile appeared on Dong Hao's tired face, and he sighed. said: "Zhou Dadu is so gracious, which makes Dong flattered." I haven't seen him for a few months, and Zhou Bo, who was in trouble in Xiangyang back then, is already a dignified martial arts doctor and a big man in charge of the capital in the blink of an eye, and it is the unpredictable things in the world. ”

Zhou Bo heard some other noises in Dong Hao's words, and he guessed whether Dong Hao had sought today's position because of the recent rumors in Ezhou City that he had taken refuge in Li Hui. However, as a young man in the 21st century, although he understood Dong Hao's words, he still pretended not to understand.

Can he blame himself for coming to this point now? He can only blame Zhai Xuan for his small energy. And he was extremely suspicious, it was Zhai Xuan who abandoned him, not that he betrayed Zhai Xuan.

Zhou Bo led Dong Hao to the back hall of the Xiying, asked the soldiers to serve tea and pour water, and greeted the leader with enthusiasm.

"Dong Shuai, I heard that it has been quite difficult to form the Pingsheng Xiang Army recently, and it is difficult to work hard for Dong Shuai. I don't know how Dong Shuai can have leisure work today, come to Xiying to find him?" Zhou Bo sat down. asked Dong Hao in a very polite tone. He was really a little curious, Dong Hao should be very busy during this time. How could you suddenly come to yourself?

Dong Hao smiled, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said, "Why, Zhou Dadu is now a nobleman, don't you want me, an old man, to come to visit?"

"Uh, Dong Shuai. Look at what you said, how dare you do this?" Zhou Bo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said with a smile, he now felt more and more that Dong Hao was not good at coming this time. He sighed secretly, in fact, in his own heart. Dong Hao is definitely an out-and-out benefactor and a good person, how can he be ungrateful?

Dong Hao put down the tea bowl in his hand, there was some vicissitudes on his pale face, and he said expressionlessly: "Zhou Dadu, you are no longer the Zhou Chengjie of the past, I only blame me for looking at you wrongly, you are a hero among people, sooner or later there will be a time to get ahead." And I still looked sorry at the beginning, trying to keep you in my Dong Jiajun to serve. Looking back now, I'm afraid that Zhou Da will make you laugh. ”

Zhou Bo's expression became solemn, and he was silent for a while, full of helplessness and sadness.

Dong Hao saw that Zhou Bo didn't speak, but looked up at Zhou Bo strangely, he saw some clues from Zhou Bo's face, and his heart suddenly felt a little shocked. But if Zhou Bo couldn't even accept these words, how could he get to such a point today?

He felt that he couldn't guess Zhou Bo a little, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to be silent with Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo let out a long sigh, and suddenly spoke, he said solemnly: "Dong Shuai, you are my Zhou Bo's benefactor, this kindness, Zhou Bo will never forget." No matter how Dong Shuai has changed your opinion of me now, I, Zhou Bo, can say to Dong Shuai from the bottom of my heart, I am still the same Zhou Bo as before, it's just the trend of the times. ”

Dong Hao was stunned, he could see that Zhou Bo did not have any trace of hypocrisy when he said this. He shook his head slowly, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's a good trend." But Zhou Bo, I, Dong Hao, am not qualified to say anything about you now, it's nothing more than hope, I hope that Zhou Bo really hasn't changed at the beginning. We are all great Song Dynasty men, so we naturally have to be loyal to the country and do our best for the people, and those infighting that are deceitful and deceitful have nothing to do with us martial artists. ”

Zhou Bo nodded solemnly and said, "Keep in mind Dong Shuai's teachings, if there is any violation in the future, I, Zhou Bo, am willing to be punished by God." Of course, the oath he made here is only aimed at the sentence "be loyal to the country and do your best for the people", as for the infighting that does not deceive me, this is not something that can be done half-way if he says he can do it.

As the saying goes, a slap can't be slapped, and sometimes it is forced to protect itself.

"Okay, very good!" Dong Hao finally showed a smile of relief.

"Dong Shuai, I know you may think that I have a holiday with Zhai Xianggong, but Dong Shuai, do you know that I am a small grain and grass camp manager, how dare I have a holiday with Zhai Xianggong? Son of Man, what else can you do in the waves?Alas!!" Zhou Bo sighed heavily, shook his head helplessly, and looked tired and powerless.

"I understand, it's just that since Zhai Xianggong thinks so, Brother Zhou, you have no choice but to be wronged. Dong Hao said regretfully.

From Dong Hao's words, Zhou Bo finally got a definite news, Zhai Xuan really hated himself. He felt a little depressed and a little indignant: Lao Tzu didn't say anything from beginning to end, and you want to blame you Zhai Xuan couldn't stand it himself, in the end, it wasn't you who forced Lao Tzu to this point?

He now feels that Zhai Xuan's psychology is like an idiot, he leaked it within a few minutes of looking for a woman, but instead scolded the woman for being unhappy, which is really self-inflicted. However, Zhai Xuan is rich and wealthy, and he is dissatisfied with this capital, what can he do? At this moment, he is even more determined, he must get ahead, and don't let powerful people step on his head in the future!!

Zhou Bo took a slow breath, adjusted his emotions, and then asked Dong Hao: "Dong Shuai, you shouldn't just be looking for the past today, if you don't guess in the next, Dong Shuai, you must have something to come to Zai Xia to help." ”

Dong Hao smiled and said in a calm tone: "Brother Zhou is really a smart person, since you and I are not outsiders, then I won't turn the corner." Today, I was ordered by Zhai Xianggong to come to Xiying to borrow 1,500 stones of grain and grass. Brother Zhou should know that I, the Dong family, have recruited 2,500 refugees outside the city as a new army, and these 2,500 mouths are waiting for food to appease them. Whether it is used as relief or as an expansion of the army, this matter of public and private affairs cannot be delayed!"

Zhou Bo nodded thoughtfully, smiled slightly with Dong Hao, and then said: "The grain and grass camp was originally to supply grain and grass to the front-line soldiers, and it is naturally no problem for Dong Shuai to transfer grain, but dare to ask Dong Shuai if he has a ticket from Lord Zhizhou?"

Several grain and grass camps in Ezhou City are nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ezhou Governor, after all, most of these grain and grass are the property of the Ezhou land that is taxed every year. Of course, some of them were mobilized by the imperial court from other towns in the rear, and then allocated supplies to the front line to fight the enemy. But in general, it is all distributed by the governor of Ezhou.

As the leader of the Ezhou bureaucracy, the only basis for Ezhou Zhizhou to grasp part of the right to speak is the political capital of several grain and grass camps in the city. It's a pity that since Zhai Xuan and Li Hui came to Ezhou, they have been vigorously inserting their own people to the grain and grass camp, and gradually even these political capitals have been divided a lot.

However, the procedure for receiving grain and grass is still there, and no matter how arbitrary Li Hui and Zhai Xuan are, it is impossible for them to turn their faces and grab military rations. Therefore, whenever the front line needs grain and grass, it must be reported to the Zhizhou Prime Minister first, or Li Hui and Zhai Xuan first, and then these two Prime Ministers will put pressure on the Zhizhou Prime Minister. Often at this time, the prime minister of Zhizhou would make political deals with Li Hui and Zhai Xuan in order to consolidate the interests and position of the Ezhou bureaucracy. (To be continued.) )
