The flames of war in the south of the Yangtze River have burned to Qingxi, and 150,000 officers and soldiers have surrounded Qingxi County.

The officials in Hangzhou seemed to have forgotten the two catastrophes, thought that the world was peaceful, and regained their former greedy nature, without considering the disasters and sufferings caused by the war. However, they were apprehensive, and from time to time patrols were sent out in the streets to prevent the riots from happening again. Although calm has returned to the city, the former prosperity and wealth are long gone, sparsely populated, and business is sluggish.

Han Shizhong and several special forces were sitting on a food stall, eating Hangzhou snacks while looking around vigilantly. There were only a group of them in the stall, and the boss was also bored, chatting with Han Shizhong and the others without a word. The boss is a very gossipy person, he whispered: "I don't seem to be from Jiangnan with a few accents, you have to be careful when walking in Hangzhou City, don't mess with the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets, otherwise you will be sent to prison as Fang Layu's sins!" ”

One of the special forces soldiers was puzzled: "We are all good people, we just came to Hangzhou to do some small business, why do the officers and soldiers want to arrest us?" ”

The boss said in a low voice: "A few people don't know, how can the locals in Hangzhou have oil and water now, and the officers and soldiers are bullying foreigners like you." If they do not benefit, they will be given the hat of a thief. ”

Han Shizhong was only annoyed in his heart after hearing this, these pests who had forgotten their scars and pain, and if they were not completely eradicated, they would not stop harming the people. It's still good as Brother Song said, in addition to this phenomenon, we must start from the system and completely overthrow this old system. He suddenly asked in a low voice: "Boss, I heard that the anti-thief leaders caught in Hangzhou are all copper-headed and iron-armed, and they are extremely powerful, right?" ”

The boss said: "That's all rumors, it's all ordinary people, where did the copper head and iron arm come from." Among them, Zhu Yan and Wu Bang are strongmen in Lanxi Lingshan, and they can't get through it to gather in the mountains and forests. Huo Chengfu is a small businessman, Chen Hoop Bucket is a hoop cooper, and he only rebelled because of excessive taxes, but who is willing to rebel if there is a trace of life. Alas! It was a good people, why did they die without a whole corpse, and the corpse was in the wilderness? ”

When Han Shizhong heard this, he asked, "Are they all dead?" ”

The boss lamented: "It is said that he was secretly killed in prison, and his head was hung on the south gate to show the public, and there can be fake." ”

Originally, they came to see if there was a chance to rescue these heroes, but now it seems to be too late. At this time, several special forces soldiers who inquired about the news came over and whispered in Han Shizhong's ear, Han Shizhong heard that these people were dead, so he paid the bill and retreated, and the scattered special forces also withdrew from the city in batches.

Less than five miles out of the city, many people were watching the excitement from afar, and when they got closer, it turned out that several officials were beating an escort woman. The woman's eyes were full of anger, and although she was beaten and bruised all over her body, she cursed endlessly. An official seemed to be tired, panting and scolding: "The thief bones of the Liang family, if you are really a scoundrel and don't know what to do, this time I will send you to the official kiln, and you will feel better." ”

The woman shouted, "You dog thieves don't die well!" My father and brother both died in the war, they died in the confrontation with Fang La's team, and they were the heroes of the imperial court. Why did you convict them of raiding their homes? Is there any heavenly reason? Oh, my God! No wonder so many people want to rise up and rebel, this world is really not a place for people! ”

The woman's angry roar angered the officials again, and they rushed up to punch and kick them, and cursed in their mouths: "What is it to say such a great rebellion, not a thief?" ”

The woman was also very strong, and although her hands were shackled, she kicked and bit with her teeth, and she used whatever part she could fight back. It can be seen that she has a lot of strength and has practiced martial arts, but an official was kicked by her. The official was annoyed and ashamed, picked up the water and fire stick and hit the woman's calf with one blow, only to hear a scream, and the woman fell to the ground. The man raised his stick again and struck at the woman, but the stick hit the ground, and he took a closer look at the woman who had been dragged away by a handsome descendant.

The official was even more annoyed, he pointed at Han Shizhong and scolded: "Don't be nosy, otherwise the official will send you to prison as a thief!" ”

Han Shizhong sneered: "The road is uneven, everyone shovels, you treat a woman wearing torture tools like this, is there any humanity?" Everyone's Commentary! "Search

The onlookers began to say that the officials were excessive, and several officials glared at each other, and the onlookers were silent. They were very proud, and said to Han Shizhong: "Boy, you are unlucky, leave the money and belongings on your body, otherwise you will feel good to be sent to prison!" ”

Han Shizhong looked up to the sky and laughed, and then said angrily: "Everyone, look at it, this is an official errand who is robbing in broad daylight." Where to find robbers, they are robbers of robbers, brutes of beasts! It is because of you brutes that the people have no way to live! ”

The official was furious and said, "Brothers, go up together, break this guy's leg and send him to prison!" ”

The first official who rushed over had not yet fallen, and his neck was pinched by Han Shizhong, and after a crisp sound, the official fell softly, already dead.

Killing officials, this is a capital crime, the onlookers fled one after another, and several officials also wanted to run away when they saw this, Han Shizhong said: "No one is left!" ”

Immediately several special forces fighters came out and killed them. Han Shizhong took the key from the dead body sent by the official, opened the woman's shackles, picked her up and said, "Evacuate quickly!" ”

Liang Hongyu lay on Han Shizhong's back, infinitely grateful, since God gave her a way to live, she had to live well. This brave offspring is his life, a slave and a slave, and he will never abandon him for the rest of his life.

Huizong's thunderous anger forced Cai Jing's Zaizhi to make concessions and agree to the autonomous region plan proposed by Liang Shanbo. Cai Jing and the others knew in their hearts that the emperor who was so happy liked to have money to spend, and he wantonly squandered money and his excess energy in calm and calm, and did not consider the consequences of the establishment of the autonomous region at all. In a word, all he saw was the autonomous region and the taxes that brought him lucratively. The deacons also like to have fun, since the emperor is like this, how can the ministers contradict it, anyway, if the emperor has money to spend, they will have money to spend, and he praised Huizong a few words, and the plan to recruit peace will come naturally.

Uncle Zhang's negotiation team officially stepped onto the stage.

The first issue of the negotiations was the question of the army of the autonomous region. The court's negotiating group demanded that the autonomous region disband its army and that the imperial court send troops to protect the security of the autonomous region. Feng Luyuan refused, the autonomous region does not have its own army, so what is it called the autonomous region. The autonomous region can be disarmed, but it absolutely does not agree to disband the army, let alone allow the imperial army to enter the autonomous region to intervene. The two sides bargained, and in the end it was agreed that the army of the autonomous region should not exceed 30,000.

Some officials pointed out that the food and salaries of the autonomous region's army should not be compared with those of the soldiers at the border gates, but should be one or two grades lower than theirs. As soon as Feng Luyuan heard that these officials were starting to have problems again, he simply said that the army rations of the autonomous region were prepared by the autonomous region, and there was no need for the imperial court to distribute them.

The officials' eyes immediately turned green, which saved the state a great deal of money, and some of the cheers wondered whether the army of the autonomous region would not be subject to the control and control of the imperial court. Feng Luyuan explained with a smile, you have been thinking too much, even the autonomous region belongs to the imperial court, how can the army not be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The second issue in the negotiations was the appointment of officials in the autonomous regions. The court negotiation group said that all officials in the autonomous region are appointed by the imperial court, and that the autonomous region is not allowed to appoint officials privately. Feng Luyuan pointed out that the appointment of officials in the autonomous region, the Liangshanbo negotiation team has already made a draft, and everyone only needs to talk about the details. There is no doubt that the supreme administrator of the autonomous region must be Song Jiang, and the imperial court can send another official to jointly assist Song Jiang in administering the autonomous region. The prefects and prefects of each prefecture and county are selected by the imperial court, and some officials of other departments can be selected by the autonomous region, but the consent of the prefect and the prefect of the county are required to be approved by the supreme administrator. All the officials of the autonomous region are officials of the imperial court, and of course they are also subject to the control of the imperial court. However, the military and the government of the autonomous region are separated, the military does not interfere in the administration, and the government does not interfere with the army.

It seemed that the imperial court did not suffer a loss on this issue, and after a brief discussion, the imperial court negotiation team approved it. Next, they discussed the administrative management of the autonomous region, taxes, the rights exercised by the autonomous region, the scope of the autonomous region, and other details.

Seeing that the negotiation is slowly plumping up in the daily verbal sword, it has reached the point where it comes to fruition.
