It is said that Qiu Liang came to see Jia Cong, and first mentioned the woman of the Fang family, so that Jia Cong was confused. It's about getting down to business. He said: "The prince has already occupied Burma. As Mr. Jia said in his early years, Tianzhu next door to Myanmar has given the English most of it, and some people have recently provoked it. ”

"Huh?" Jia Cong raised his eyebrows, "The English came to Myanmar to provoke? ”

"Yes."

Jia Cong sneered: "A great opportunity is here, fight!" ”

Qiu Liang said: "It is very easy for the prince to fight Burma, because there are Western firearms; Those English have it too. ”

Jia Cong said with a smile: "There are many Western countries, and firearms are not the best in other countries. Nowadays, the Western firearms on the market in China are stronger than theirs. However, if you want to fight them,......" he thought for a moment and said, "I advise the prince to join forces with the two of them. ”

"Who?"

"Huo Sheng, the king of Nan'an County, and the king of Beijing County." Jia Cong said, "Huo Sheng beat Vietnam, Khmer, and Sulu, but he grabbed it and left, and he didn't think about it for a long time; When the water dissolved had occupied Siam, it was about to be founded. ”

Qiu Liang was taken aback: "Those in Siam are the people of the prince of Beijing?" ”

"Huh? You don't know? Jia Congqi said, "He has been in charge for a long time." ”

Qiu Liang said: "Although I know that it is my dynasty, people have never come out with a signboard." ”

"It's too cautious to dissolve in water." Jia Cong said, "The Beijing Mansion in the capital was empty in the old years, and now there is not even a serious master in the mansion, only a few concubines of the former Beijing Prince. The water-soluble mother-in-law and the woman and child were all taken away. ”

"It turned out to be his people." Qiu Liang clapped his hands and said, "We've been guessing for a long time." ”

Jia Cong remembered another person: "There is a pirate I recruited from a woman to fight on Java Island. He sighed softly.

To say that Zhou Xiaolan is really interesting enough. At that time, he overheard some words in the Taiwan government, and went to the South Seas alone, and it took less than two years to collect tens of thousands of pirates. Nai led two subordinates to the Red Bone Guangzhou store to discuss business. Wu Xiaoxi heard that it was her, and rushed over from Chengtian Mansion in person. Zhou Xiaolan said: "Java, your island is called Indonesia, and it has been occupied by the Dutch country in the West for hundreds of years. Sell me firearms, and I'll go and print them. Malaysia doesn't fight, leave it to you. Wu Xiaoxi understood what he meant at that time. She must have heard the people of Taiwan discussing how important the Strait of Malacca is, and that it can be left to others elsewhere in the future, and this place must be laid. So he confessed his love and gave her a preferential price.

Qiu Liang hurriedly said: "We have also heard that the female pirate's surname is Zhou, and she is so powerful, and Westerners say that she knows witchcraft." ”

Jia Cong smiled: "What she knows is not witchcraft, it is martial arts." A green forest master with some skills. Where have Westerners seen this? ”

Zhou Xiaolan made her master extremely durable. At first, he did not raise troops to attack the island, but sent many men to find out where the Dutch were and who was the leader. Then take advantage of the dark wind of the night to play assassination, starting from the killing of high rank. Indonesia was the territory of the Dutch East India Company, and there were many Dutch soldiers. Zhou Xiaolan assassinated the Dutch man in order, and the women and children did not move, and it was not long before rumors of witchcraft spread. When the Dutch army was moved, she sent troops again, and the battle went smoothly. But when the Dutch had ships to replenish them, she led them back to sea, and after a few days the Dutch recruits had settled down a little before they went to assassinate. Rumors have spread in the Netherlands, and many people are afraid to come to Indonesia again.

Qiu Liang asked, "Does Mr. Jia know about this woman?" Wang Ye Nahan, where did a young woman come from with such great ability? ”

Jia Cong said: "I know the general this week. People in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, who were killed by the Japanese in their small home, learned martial arts from a master, and later worked as a bodyguard for several years. Once he escorted a rich young master out of the house, and the young master looked at her halfway and wanted to accept her as a concubine. The woman then felt that being a bodyguard was a suffocating act, and it was better to be a pirate. ”

Qiu Liang was surprised: "There is such a woman! If you look good, why not marry a good man? ”

Jia Cong said: "People don't even want to be bodyguards, will they be willing to marry?" When married, must not listen to the words of his husband and mother-in-law? Where there is a pirate to come freely. The island of Java was not populated, and the Dutch were scared enough by her. It doesn't take long to become the heroine of a country, isn't it better than being a concubine? ”

Qiu Liang sighed: "There is such a woman. ”

Jia Cong said: "Speaking of which, the prince is in Burma, has he ever naturalized the natives?" ”

Qiu Liang said: "I don't have that mental strength for the time being." ”

Jia Cong said: "It doesn't take too much effort. Only hire some teachers to go over and teach the important local natives to learn to speak my dynasty and learn to write my dynasty characters. In the future, all official documents must be written in our court, and the natives who want to be officials must also learn our language. Wealthy and noble families will naturally learn my dynasty dialect as a time, and ordinary people can also drive it. No matter where they are, if they speak the words of our court, write the words of our court, or wear the clothes of our court, they will be my courtiers. But whoever becomes a person of my dynasty will not rebel in hundreds of years. ”

Qiu Liang thought for a long time when he heard this: "That's the case." In this way, the school that Mr. Jia said must be built, otherwise where would there be so many teaching gentlemen. ”

Jia Cong said: "Whether it is for Shu or Burma, it must be built." Ju Liang nodded.

Qiu Liang said goodbye for a while, and Yuan Shikai ran over and pulled his shirt: "Lord Qiu, is the second master Kang of the Fang family okay?" My brother never forgot him. ”

Qiu Liang thought for a while: "Your brother is the child who accompanies the young master of the Fang family?" Yuan Shikai nodded. Qiu Liang said, "The women and children of the Fang family are now placed in the Iron Statue Temple, and they have never shortened their use. ”

Jia Cong laughed and said, "Who came up with this idea!" That's awesome! Nai looked at Qiu Liang, "It shouldn't be you, Master Qiu." Qiu Liang smiled and nodded. The corpses that were moved out of the tunnel at the bottom of the Shu Wang's Mansion that day were transported by Qiu Liang to the Iron Statue Temple for incineration and excess. Locking the people of the Fang family there can virtually suppress these people from shouting grievances. Jia Cong suddenly remembered something, and said, "That Taoist priest can be interrogated openly and let the people listen to it one by one." ”

Qiu Liang said: "I'm afraid it will scare my father." ”

Jia Cong said with a smile: "That Taoist priest really wants to live, so I discussed with him and changed some things." For example, the Seven Yin Array was not placed under the Shu Palace, but in a small village outside the city, and he was ready to cast spells in the village to harm the prince. The people he killed were all teenagers and children, and they were all the hearts and minds of ordinary people. ”

Qiu Liang thought for a while: "I'll discuss with the prince. ”

For a while, he went back to see the king of Shu and gave a detailed review of the matter of Fang Cai. The King of Shu pondered: "In this way, that Miss Fang is not an immortal?" ”

Qiu Liang said: "It doesn't seem to be, Mr. Jia just said that she looks good." Besides, that Liu Yifei may not be an immortal. Since it is inconvenient for the prince to kill, he just doesn't mess with him. Mr. Jia is always for the good of the prince. ”

The King of Shu nodded, and said, "It's okay to keep it, and see who will save them." ”

A few days later, the king of Shu ordered Qiu Liang to make the Yamen public trial of the Taoist priest who did the Seven Yin Array in Jiedu, and specially invited many respected old people to sit and listen. The door of the yamen was almost squeezed! When he heard that the Taoist priest personally admitted that he had killed many people according to the demon law, the audience was scolded. Hearing that there was an aunt behind her, she didn't care about the official to stop her, so she rushed forward and took off her shoes and instigated the Taoist priest with the soles of her shoes more than a dozen times, which made the Taoist priest's mouth crooked.

On the second day of the trial, an old couple ran trembling and cried, saying that their fifteen-year-old only son had let Huazi abduct and sell him into the Fang family, and they didn't want to let this Taoist priest be killed by pouring mercury alive. On the third day, there were two more couples, both of whom were abducted by Hanako and died at the hands of this Taoist priest. If the first day the people were mostly listening to the excitement, the next two days were frightened. At first, they all thought that those young people who died unjustly were all slaves that the Fang family bought everywhere, and they didn't pay much attention to it. Now when I hear it, it's a good family's child, let Hanako turn! I suddenly remembered my own child. One wall was frightened, and the other wall secretly planned to go back to see his little cub.

Qiu Liang wept and said: "People can't be resurrected after death, and I hope that a few festivals will be smooth and change." He said loudly that the unjust soul reported to Mr. Jia, Mr. Jia hurried to Shu, he and Mr. Jia found the Zhuangzi outside the city and saw the corpse, Mr. Jia saw that the dead soul was trapped, he Qiu Liang personally sent it to cremation and transcendence, and the unjust soul after detachment bowed down to the king of Shu to thank this series of stories. Qiu Liang has been the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in the capital for many years, and his mouth is also very tight, so that the people can't help but bow down: "The prince is a thousand years old-"

But I saw that the Taoist priest suddenly shouted "ahhhh The Taoist priest suddenly hugged his stomach again, and then shouted, his two hands were messing around, rolling on the ground, and he looked like he was being beaten. The people below held their breath. I heard the Taoist priest shouting: "Don't look for the poor way!" Poor Dao was just hired by Fang Xiong! There is a debtor and a debtor! The poor road did not get a few pieces of silver! Fang Xiong said that there will be a heavy reward after the deed is completed, but this thing has not been done yet! Poor Dao helped him hurt hundreds of people, but he only got less than three hundred taels of silver, and Poor Dao was also wronged-" I heard him shout loudly, "Ah-" sounded, blood spurted out of his mouth, and he lay motionless on the ground.

The servant trembled boldly and stepped forward to test his snort, shouting, "He's dead!" ”

"Boom-" The head suddenly looked like a frying pan. Someone shouted, "Wronged souls ask for their lives!" Evil is rewarded!" Many people shouted: "Wronged souls for their lives!" Evil is rewarded!" The lobby is much more lively than the stage.

Qiu Liangnai walked to the Taoist priest with his hand and looked at it, and sighed: "Why bother? If a monk is a good student and cultivates, even if he can't ascend, he can still be clean, right? Then he ordered the priest to be dragged away.

When the people dispersed, Qiu Liang went to the yamen and saw that the Taoist priest had wiped the chicken blood from his mouth and was drinking tea. The Taoist priest stood up and made a mockery: "Lord Qiu, Poor Dao has finished singing according to his words, how about asking the Lord to release Poor Dao as agreed?" ”

Qiu Liang shook his head and said, "If you leave like this and let people see it, won't the prince lose face?" ”

The Taoist priest said: "Poor Dao took advantage of the night to disguise himself and leave." ”

Qiu Liang asked with a smile, "Who are you disguised as?" ”

The Taoist priest thought for a while: "Or, is it better for Poor Dao to pretend to be a monk?" ”

"Monk? Wouldn't that be the first thing to do with a bald head? Qiu Liang glanced at him a few times, "How about going to the Iron Statue Temple to shave?" ”

The Taoist priest trembled in fright, and said with a wry smile: "Don't joke, adults. ”

"That's it." Qiu Liang said, "Dao Chief, in my opinion, it is not convenient for you to pretend to be a monk, only pretending to be a corpse is the best." ”

The Taoist priest's eyes immediately widened, and he sneered: "The adults are making fun of the poor Dao again." ”

"It's not a joke, it's true." Qiu Liang clapped his hands twice.

Someone immediately came out and grabbed the Taoist priest, and poured a poison into his mouth. Medicine. But after two quarters of an hour, the Taoist morale was completely dead—this time the blood on his mouth was really human blood. Qiu Liang sneered: "Send it to the Iron Statue Temple to be burned to ashes!" The man below answered, dragging the body away.

From this day on, this story has been told in the streets and alleys, teahouses and taverns, and the commentary script has been everywhere in less than half a month, called "Soul Release". The king of Shu was unprecedentedly popular for a while. It's just that no one knows that the couple whose three children were killed are all descendants of the Ju Liang family. Ordinary people made a lot of trouble, but there were many people in the army who didn't believe that Fang Xiong would do these things, and there was an undercurrent. It's just that Fang Xiong and his four sons are all dead, and there is no leader for the time being.

The king of Shu thought about it for a few days, and discussed it several times with the people under him, and finally decided to build a compulsory education school for the children of ordinary people to study. Jia Cong learned of the great joy, and ran to the Shu Wangfu every day to help, how to take the first step and how to make the next step clear. How did people know that he had years of experience? For a few days, Jia Cong accepted a large group of subordinates of the King of Shu who were doing practical things.

The King of Shu also went to listen to their discussion one day, and when he saw the step book written by Jia Cong, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Mr. Jia, this is what you wrote?" ”

"yes." Jia Cong said casually, "You only need to refine it a little more and you can start doing it." ”

The King of Shu praised: "It's so clear and clear! ”

"Thank you for your praise!" Jia Cong thought for a while, "There is something I want to ask the prince about the late life." ”

"What?"

"The original Shu Palace, how is the prince prepared?" Jia Cong said, "First of all, there must be no bullshit, that Taoist priest is two hundred and five." It's just that there are so many tunnels below, and the prince may not be at ease. If it is vacant, it is a pity. ”

The King of Shu smiled: "Lonely is not afraid, but the family does not dare to live anymore." What does Mr. Jia see? ”

"Why don't you change it to an academy?" Jia Cong said, "Build a comprehensive university." ”

The King of Shu asked, "What is a comprehensive university?" ”

Jia Cong said: "Ordinary academies only teach Confucian classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics, and students come to Japan to take the imperial examination and become officials, right?" Jingzhong has just finished the palace test, and the new champion has been released. ”

The King of Shu nodded: "Not bad." ”

"Uncle Wang Ziteng's school in Liangguang mainly focused on Western subjects such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, in order to teach the best craftsmen and cultivate talents for various factories. The children of ordinary military generals learn the art of war by family. Jia Cong smiled and said, "Lord, it's still fun to rob in Myanmar!" There is still a lot of gold in Tianzhu. The prince was born in a military family. What the prince lacks the most is not a champion who can read and break, but a general who leads the troops to fight. Later, he thought that generals could also pick talents from ordinary children. ”

The King of Shu took a breath and asked, "This school you are talking about?" ”

Jia Cong said: "I teach not only the Four Books and the Five Classics, but also craftsmen and generals. Whatever talent the prince wants, this school will teach whatever talent. The prince can be the dean of the academy, and these people will be the prince's protégés no matter what they do in the future. ”
