When Shen Xi went to the southeast, he must first ensure that there was no fault during the period of performing his duties. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

If there is no fault, there is merit, which is especially evident in the errand that Shen Xi is responsible for.

Even Liu Daxia, known as the first capable minister of the Hongzhi Dynasty, did not completely eradicate the problem of bandits and robbers on the southeast coast, because bandits always rise again and again, and if they want to completely solve the problem of bandits and bandits, only when the people are rich, live and work in peace and contentment, and have a strong coastal defense force.

The people of the Ming Dynasty are very timid and afraid, but no one wants to be a bandit if they have something to eat, such as Zhu Qi and his clansmen, if they can go down the mountain to eat, they will not stay on the mountain to be bandits.

The reason why the Japanese invaders caused so much damage to China's coastal areas during the Ming Dynasty was ultimately due to the imperial court's ban on the sea and the lack of a navy that crisscrossed the seas.

Xie Qian said again: "You mentioned before that you exchanged crops with the Franc Machine, and after the Franc Robot sent the crops, you ...... Try to plant it in the land of Fujian and Guangdong, and then decide whether to promote it according to the effect. ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "Lord Yuezu gave this good opportunity to make a contribution to the younger generation? ”

"What is letting, what you are advocating for yourself, trying it yourself, if something goes wrong, you have to bear the responsibility yourself, you don't understand this truth?"

Xie Qian blew his beard and glared, looking angry, but Shen Xi could understand his good intentions.

may have married his granddaughter to him, which made Xie Qian completely regard Shen Xi as his "own person", and on this issue, Xie Qian clearly gave him a good opportunity to perform.

Don't you boast so well about corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes? Then you go to plant, and when the planting is completed, the local people will have enough to eat, and there will naturally be fewer bandits. I can also help you speak in front of the emperor and credit you for the credit. Even if the crops are not as good as you say, Daming is rich and doesn't care about such a little harvest, the emperor will not take this matter to heart, and it is me, an old horseman, who will exchange crops for the upper play, and it has nothing to do with you.

In general, the credit is yours, and if you don't, the blame is mine, and you just have to do it after you go.

Shen Xi thought to himself, Scholar Xie has cheated me for three years, and today I finally did something worthy of people.

"There are a few officials in the Ministry of War who know the soldiers, who are respected by Liu Shangshu, and you go over to meet them before you leave. Ask them more about how to march and fight, don't go to the place, and take it for granted! ”

Perhaps considering that Shen Xi had not received orthodox training in the art of war and tactics, Xie Qian discussed with Liu Daxia and found a few people to give him a short-term training, which was tantamount to temporary cramming.

Shen Xi received the order, and just at this time, a small head poked out of the back door of the study, and Shen Xi fixed his eyes to see it, but it was Xie Hengnu who was secretly looking out from the inner hall.

"This dead girl, what does a thief and a thief brain look like."

Xie Qian stood up, scolded his granddaughter with a smile, and turned to Shen Xi and said, "The old man still has something to do, you are the one." After speaking, he simply put away the notebook on the table, put it in his arms and walked out of the study door, and went by himself.

Xie Qian's departure was actually to create conditions for Shen Xi and Xie Hengnu to go to see Mrs. Xu together.

Mrs. Xu loves her little granddaughter very much, and now that Shen Xi has returned to the door with Xie Hengnu for three dynasties, the old man wants to explain a few words to his grandson-in-law, especially if he wants his grandson-in-law to love her granddaughter well, in the end, Xie Hengnu married into the Shen family as a concubine, and the old man is reluctant to let his granddaughter suffer.

This kind of words for Shen Xi to take care of more, Xie Qian himself couldn't say it, so even if he was also reluctant, he still handed over the right to speak to Mrs. Xu.

When they got inside, Shen Xi personally served tea to Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth and praised Shen Xi again and again.

“…… Jun'er, a good student serves Lord Shen, has a good relationship with the sisters in the family, and respects the elderly...... The daughter of our Xie family, can't be left behind......" Mrs. Xu earnestly entrusted.

Xie Hengnu nodded and glanced back at Shen Xi, obviously she didn't understand what "door style" was.

In fact, Shen Xi doesn't understand this thing very well, to put it bluntly, it is the rules and etiquette of the Xie family, as well as the face.

Xie Hengnu married as the wife of the Shen family, and going out represents the face of the Shen family, but what he does in the house on weekdays represents the previous teachings of the Xie family.

"Old lady, I will definitely take good care of Jun'er and will not treat her poorly." After Shen Xi saluted, he solemnly made a promise.

Leaving Xie Mansion with the reluctant Xie Hengnu, Shen Xi sent Xie Hengnu back to his home first, and then went to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War, and did a good job of the people who should be seen and the things that should be explained, just waiting for the next day.

……

……

Shen Xi's trip to the southeast was actually inherited from Liu Daxia's duties as the governor of Liangguang in history, but the time was pushed back by two years, and the situation of bandits and bandits in the local area may be more serious than in real history.

At that time, Liu Daxia went to Liangguang to take up his post, and only brought two servants, which can be said to be alone. And Shen Xi went south, but it was a big migration of the whole family, not counting the wives and children, there were still Jiang Liwei, Yu Niang and others with them, and they did not go on the road alone, bringing a large number of entourage.

If Song Xiaocheng and the others who set off ahead of schedule are counted, Shen Xi's manpower seems to be much more sufficient than Liu Daxia's when he goes south.

Shen Xi's mission was to pacify the bandits and robbers, but the imperial court did not allocate Shen Xi a cannon or other weapons, only Jiang Liwei, Yu Niang and their entourage wore swords, but they could not be used on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, it is important to pay attention to "one inch long and one inch strong", and the attack is to use bows and arrows, spears, spears and knives, and the code uses heavy shields.

Even if you fight hard against bandits and robbers, you can't use your sword to play hand-to-hand combat.

After Shen Xi took office, the soldiers needed to be requisitioned and transferred from the Yamen of the Capital Division and the Xingdu Division, and the weapons were provided by the local guards, or they could find someone to build them themselves, and the money and grain needed to be collected and earned.

"Is this for me to fight hard with the bandits, or to exercise my ability to communicate with the local government? Take this trip, and come back to become an old oilman. ”

Shen Xi was a noble speaker of the East Palace in the capital, and there were not many opportunities to communicate with the officials of the Yamen, and this was an excellent opportunity to "exercise" his communication methods, but he would rather the imperial court have less routines for him and make up for the manpower and material resources that should be allocated to him.

According to the plan, two days after Shen Xi left, Hui Niang and Li Jin's team would also set off for the south, Shen Xi would take the water route, and Hui Niang and his party would take the land route.

Before leaving, Shen Xi sent a novel and unique gift to the bear child Zhu Houzhao through Jin Gui, which he spent a few days printing playing cards in the way of printing colorful New Year paintings, and taught the prince some detailed gameplay and skills, so that he could play cards with the eunuchs around him.

And Shen Xi himself also prepared a few decks of cards to pass the boring time for the female relatives around him on the road.

When he went out of Beijing, no one came to see Shen Xi off, and even his colleagues in the Zhan Mansion and the Hanlin Academy were too busy with business to see each other off.

Shen Xi's car drove and joined Wang Shouren in the Dongdan archway, and then went out of the city.

After Xie Hengnu left the Chongwen Gate, he opened the car window and looked back at the towering city tower, and suddenly shed tears for some reason.

Yin Wen followed Shen Xi south to say goodbye to his parents and grandmother, and Xiao Nizi was a little sullen. As for Xie Yun'er, Lin Dai and Lu Xi'er, they are much calmer, they are not from the capital, and the people closest to them are none other than Shen Xi, and now they are following Shen Xi to the south, they can go back to their hometown Tingzhou first, and it is too late for them to be happy.

Xie Hengnu and Yin Wen rode in the same carriage, driven by Zhu Shan, and on the first day, Lu Xi'er also joined the carriage of the little sisters, and the three little girls of the same age got together and had a common language.

Xie Hengnu was originally a child who had not grown up, but in front of Yin Wen and Lu Xi'er, she was a "big sister", especially when she had just become Shen Xi's wife, which made Lu Xi'er and Yin Wen envious.

The three little Nizi, who were originally a little withdrawn, quickly warmed up in less than a day, and even slept together on the first day when they stayed at the station.

Shen Xi, as Xie Hengnu's newlywed Yan'er's husband, had to sleep with Xie Yun'er.

In the next few days, after Shen Xi taught the three little girls playing cards, their relationship became more harmonious, and they were together day and night, and then Lin Dai found that she was isolated, and she couldn't pester Shen Xi, so she had to "compromise" to Xie Hengnu's carriage.

However, Lin Dai likes to stand on the shelf, and always considers herself Shen Xi's "eldest lady", and her popularity is not so good. When she arrived at Xie Hengnu's carriage, the four of them were huddled together, and she was just watching the three little sisters play on the side, so she couldn't join in. Fortunately, Lu Xi'er and she grew up together since childhood, and they had a good relationship, and Yin Wen and Xie Hengnu didn't have too many scheming, so the four of them were safe and sound in the first half of the journey.

After Shen Xi left the capital, the first thing he did was to practice horseback riding.

In the past, Shen Xi felt that it didn't matter whether he could ride a horse or not, after all, he was a civil official, playing with a pen all day long, and he was not a warrior on horse, so it was useless to learn to ride a horse. But now it seems that he is not very old, but he has repeatedly participated in military affairs, if this time he goes south to fight with bandits and robbers, he must be proficient in horseback riding, and he must not take a carriage, ox cart or even a sedan chair to the battlefield again and again to direct the war, what will it be?

With Zhu Qi and Wang Shouren as coaches, Shen Xi has made rapid progress, and he has basically been able to ride a horse alone in two days.

Yu Niang is a woman after all, she did not communicate with Shen Xi when she took the carriage south in the first halfway, but Jiang Liwei often talked to Shen Xi about the southbound route, and "tactfully" persuaded Shen Xi to speed up the journey.

After all, Shen Xi was dragging his family with his mouth, he could have set off in advance, but after leaving the capital, he had to go south by boat along the canal for less than 200 miles, so that the first half of the journey was of little significance even if he was in a hurry, so he ignored Jiang Liwei's "good intentions".

Unlike the drought and displacement of displaced people that Shen Xi saw along the way when he first went south to Quanzhou, what he saw along the way was a vibrant scene.

Last winter, there was a series of heavy snowfalls, and it happened to be a year of snow in North China, and now April is approaching the wheat harvest, and the people of North China are waiting for the arrival of a good harvest.

At noon on the 10th day of April, the group finally arrived at Yangcunyi, north of Sanwei in Tianjin, which is an important wharf of the North Canal and a famous passenger and freight distribution center, where it is convenient to hire ships to go south.

Once you get to the canal, the rest of the road is much easier.

After getting on the boat, Shen Xi leisurely, he could study the art of war and strategy in a matter-of-fact manner, occasionally go to the deck, or find Wang Shouren to play chess, or go to the boat of the female dependent, go to the cabin to accompany his wife and concubine, or listen to Zhou's chatter about family life, and remember the bittersweet memories.
