Chapter 72: One Water Feeds a Hundred People (2)

Yang Qilong's face darkened......

Zhang Sicheng stretched out his hand and punched Yang Qilong: "You almost didn't strangle the master, why are you so energetic?" ”

……

Pengqiao, Dengzhou.

Pengqiao is in the west of Dengzhou, this place is no longer an endless plain, it is already next to the Qinling Mountains.

Even, in the territory of this Pengqiao, there are many peaks, but the topography of this place is dominated by undulating high hills.

Pengqiao is close to the Paizi River.

In the northeast of this place is the former site of Danyang, which has left a great name in history.

Danyang has elite soldiers, which refers to this.

This Danyang, in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, because there are nine weir water conservancy facilities built by Ye Gong of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was renamed Jiuzhong.

Nanyang is known as the three earliest irrigation areas in the world, because Ye Gong presided over the construction of a series of water conservancy facilities around Nanyang.

Most of these water conservancy facilities were demolished in the Qianlong year......

Pengqiao is downstream of the Jiuzhong Weir.

This place was originally unknown, but there were many famous generals around, such as Zhang Xun and Wang Jian, who were born within five miles of the surrounding area.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the Ming minister Peng Ershu followed the Long Qing court, pursued and killed Yongli, and was able to occupy a high position.

When the world was stable, he was expelled from the court, and returned to his hometown and lived here.

The surname Peng gradually spread out, and then the name of Peng Qiao was born.

The five sons born to Peng Ershu are all studying in their own schools, and the smartest among them is the fifth son Peng Shijun.

"Fifth brother, you informed Su Zuo about the Zhang family, we Nanyang, I'm afraid we will be killed and injured again!"

Boss Peng Shitong frowned.

After all, the Zhang family did not do anything out of the ordinary, besides, the Zhang family controlled the transfer of the ancient tea horse road, and the family Tibetan horses also deserved it.

Nanyang is the end of the Hanshui waterway, if you want to go north, you must land from Baishui and transfer the Yellow River before you can continue to go straight to Beijing.

Peng Shi put together the book: "Hmph! Eldest brother, not a brother said you, father's "Wuguan Fu", you recite it again! ”

Among the five sons of the Peng family, although Peng Shiyan is the youngest, only 23 years old, he has already won the show.

He deserves to be the first among the children of the Peng family, so when facing the questioning of the head of the family, his tone is not kind.

Peng Shitong thought about it, he was not as good as others in his studies, and he didn't dare to argue with his fifth brother, so he had to speak:

"Green rice and high fields died, and the widows of the conscripts were sad...... The time is full of drought, and the situation has not been suspended."

Peng Shijun continued: "What about "Walking the Pen under the Lamp"? ”

These poems were written by my father during the southern expedition, and they are all testimonies of the battlefield!

Big brother is good at everything, but he is too soft-hearted!

You must know that killing one person is a crime, killing 10,000 people is a male, and killing a million people is a male among males!

Peng Shitong opened his mouth and said: "The white bones are in the Cangwu Mountain, and the blood is flowing in Xiaoxiang......"

This poem was written by my father when he went to Hunan with the army, and he was already an adult at that time, so he naturally remembered it clearly.

"When we meet without a father, the streets are full of bones. At dusk, it spits out green fire, shining in the west of Xiaoxiang. The official house has two clusters of laurels, and the sunset is low. The autumn is still not open, and the spider silk is cloudy. When you go out and see a squirrel, the diameter is extra fat."

Peng Shi snorted coldly, and then recited this father's drunken work.

War, what is that?

That's thousands of miles of uninhabited, fertile fields are all white bones!

It was a city with barren grass, and rats as big as dogs!

He looked at him with contempt: "Big brother, not to mention that if we want to become a family, we can only step on other people's bones to get on the throne, just say that once this is another military disaster, what will happen to the hometown fathers?" ”

Peng Shitong's eyes widened suddenly.

"So, Fifth Brother, you deliberately told Surda?"

He couldn't believe it.

When did that gentle, obedient brother become like this?

How dare he become so ruthless for the sake of utilitarianism?

"I didn't say anything!"

Peng Shiyan sneered: "It's true that the Zhang family has horses!" ”

Peng Shitong was speechless.

It is an indisputable fact that there are more than a dozen to a hundred and ten good horses in each manor of the Zhang family......

"Zhuangbao all over the Zhangjia, even if I don't say it, Su Zuoling can find out, right? That thing, it's in the official register! ”

Peng Shitong was speechless.

The fields of the big families, it is okay to fool the emperor, but if you want to fool the officials, it is a fantasy......

Peng Shi snorted coldly: "In that case, why do you blame me, eldest brother?" On what grounds do you justify? ”

He stood up and threw the book in his hand on the ground:

"Could it be that I am wrong to think hard for the sake of the development and growth of my family?"

"Could it be that there is a second place on both sides of this white water where we can build a manor?"

Peng Shitong was silent.

"Don't forget, your surname is Peng!"

Peng Shi swept his hand away......

Under the starry night, a faint crescent moon appears and disappears.

Peng Shitong stood for a long time, a long time...... There was only one sigh......

……

The east has scattered the white belly of the fish, and it is another sunny day.

Nanyang Mansion.

Surda had just let people be tortured for a day and a night, and only the dying Li Tingran and Zhang Siyuan were thrown into prison, and they were notified by Menzi that they were the sons of Zhang's mansion asking to see them.

Zhang Siyuan has only one son, and Suerda flipped through the Zhang family's roster a little and knew that it was Zhang Shiling.

"Let him in!"

He sat on the throne, let his subordinates take a wet towel, wiped his face vigorously, and washed away the exhaustion on his face.

After a while, Zhang Shiling came in eagerly.

"Student Zhang Shiling has seen General Su!"

Zhang Shiling bent down and saluted.

He had already obtained the fame of Xiucai, and if he was not unwilling to continue the imperial examination, he would have been promoted a long time ago.

And Xiucai has the power not to kneel when he sees officials, which is also the original intention of Zhang Shiling's scientific expedition.

"Oh, it's a showman!" Surda smiled.

The corners of his mouth were mocking, but he looked at Tong Tulai to the side.

Tong Tulai smiled, and sure enough, they said yes!

Look, this bug is a bug!

My own father is about to be played to death by them, and he is going to give gifts!

Tut-tut!

No wonder a big Ming country was swallowed by them......

"General Su, the student came today to redeem his father and Uncle Weng, although the student has not yet entered the office, but he also knows that His Majesty the Holy Emperor is merciful and allows the guilty official to redeem it with atonement silver, and I hope that General Su will make it convenient."

This indulgence silver is a major feature of the Qing court.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it was limited to the mistakes made by the banner people, and they could be punished with money, and after the Qing Dynasty, it was extended to all bureaucrats.

Merely......

None of the people who presided over this matter ended well.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon, Aobai, and Heshen in the Qing Dynasty were all the people who presided over the atonement silver, and the fate of the three was worse than the other......

Even, the corpses that were exhumed and whipped ......

Surda sneered.

Sure enough, it is a local clan, and even his master is the one who presides over the atonement silver, he can find out!
