On the same day, when he fought fiercely with the Shuntian army outside Linqu City, there was a small village in a green mountain and green water on the south side of Yidu City, and there were only thirty or forty households in it, most of whom were farming and cutting firewood for a living.

People here are called Tuo Mountain, there are more than ten miles away from the scenic spot Yunmen Mountain in the east, the scenery of Yunmen Mountain is beautiful, the north is connected to Jinfeng Mountain, the south is based on the split mountain, the east is adjacent to the Mo Navel Mountain, and the camel mountain is separated by the waterfall stream to the west.

Further east of Yunmen Mountain, there are several low and gentle hills scattered, verdant and green, called Daqi Mountain, Ma'an Mountain, Wochan Mountain, General Mountain, Lying Gu Mountain and Flint Mountain.

The mountains on the mountain are stacked on top of each other, the green water is high and the waterfall is high, the Buddha road is prosperous, there are not only Buddha caves on the mountain, but also the road caves. Between the cliffs and cliffs on the mountain, there are cliff inscriptions and steles of literati and celebrities of the past dynasties.

In later generations, the "Yidu County Atlas" has "Longxing Temple, in the northwest corner of the city." Northern Qi Wuping four years to give Nanyang Temple, the first year of Sui Kaihuang changed to Changle, and said Daozang, then every day to give two years to change the name of Dayun, Xuanzong Kaiyuan eighteen years of the beginning of the name Longxing. ”

The name of Dayun Temple originated from Wu Zetian, and Dayun Temple is the original Nanyang Temple

In the past, because of the tourists in Yunmen Mountain, there were many pilgrims, and many villagers on the side of the mountain road cleaned their homes and set up one or several clean houses as a stay for tourists and pilgrims, and earned some housing money to subsidize their families.

Now because of the Linqu war, the scouts on both sides come and go frequently, and most of the scouts from Linqu have taken a fancy to the high mountains and dense forests of Yunmen Mountain, and their whereabouts are very good, so they mostly enter the south of Yidu City from here to investigate. The Yuan army in Yidu City naturally fought against this, repeatedly dispatching a large number of officers and troops to patrol the mountains from time to time, and at the same time sending scouts to infiltrate the mountains to ambush or search for enemy spies. In just a dozen days, no less than a dozen soldiers from both sides died in the mountains.

Fearing the impact of the war, the number of tourists and pilgrims who entered the mountain has disappeared, and many mountain people have temporarily moved to other places.

However, Tuoshan is located in the southwest of Yidu City, which is relatively remote from Yidu City, and the scouts from Linqu generally do not take it as the main route, relatively speaking, it still maintains the original tranquility.

At this time, there is a middle-aged man with a clear face in a thatched hut in the village staring at a few turtle shells at the table, and has been staring blankly for a long time, he has a whim today, and he can't hold it back for a while, and he seems to have realized it after getting up in the morning, it just so happens that his brother Mr. Jiang Bin Jiang Bin went out of the city to meet him this morning, and he also wanted to discuss the matter of Linqu again, and this person simply took out the tortoise shell collected in the box and made a divination.

"How's the hexagram?" Mr. Jiang on the other side asked with concern.

"If I hadn't solved the mistake, I'm afraid it would be an inferior elephant." After a long silence, the man who was doing the divination let out a long sigh and replied with a somewhat tired expression.

"How so?" Jiang Bin was shocked, "The official army is very strong, and there is the help of the Beijing division and the guards, and the worst is also a stalemate situation, how can they return with a feather?" Jiang Bin really couldn't believe it.

"When I got up this morning, my heart fluctuated, and I always felt that something had happened, and my brother came out of the city today, which was the cause of the hexagram, and according to the hexagram, there should be no other solution. If there is anything wrong, it may be that we and other mediocre talents are wise, and the heavenly machine is unfathomable, and it is impossible to speculate, it is inevitable to put on a crown and wear it, and the blind man touches the elephant, which is also there. The person who started the hexagram was not annoyed, and said in a light tone.

Jiang Bin Huo Ran got up, paced back and forth in the hut, walked back and forth a few times, and lowered his head to think.

Although his younger brother has different aspirations from him, he has lost confidence in the government and politics, and he is unwilling to become an official, so he is willing to live in seclusion among the mountains and wilderness, and no longer asks about the world, but he has nothing to do, but he is interested in the gossip of the I Ching and the study of divination. The two brothers, one in the opposition and the other in the official residence, each have their own income and ambitions.

Mr. Jiang Jiang Bin was in Beijing this month to plan for Yiwang to buy slaves, open up the way for the powerful in Beijing, did not pay too much attention to the Linqu war, and only wrote to talk about the bandits attacking the city, occupying it, and then wantonly soliciting ignorant and foolish people, making a big noise.

Buy a slave and ask him to clear the Privy Council, and please transfer a guard to Yidu Road. Originally, I wanted to go to Laiyang and other Ludong areas to help suppress bandits from all over the country, just in time for the matter of Linqu, so I simply asked to be transferred to Linqu first.

At the beginning of the war, Jiang Bin didn't care too much, the land of projectiles, the little thief, how much noise he could make, mainly because it was at the critical moment of the southern expedition of the marshal, and the road to the south of Yidu City was cut off by thieves, so in Beijing, Mr. Jiang frequently lobbied and visited the mansions of various ministers and ministers, and finally made the Privy Council issue a red lacquer seal and transferred Tang Wuwei.

Jiang Bin knew about the situation of Yidu Road's troops, so he didn't expect much from the Han army. He put more weight on Tang Wuwei's body. If it is necessary to transfer the guards and foot soldiers, it will take too much time, so Jiang Bin asked for instructions to buy slaves and also successively decided, and decided that it is advisable to ask for the transfer of cavalry, after all, there are many plains in the north and south of Linqu City, which is very suitable for the Yuan cavalry to gallop vertically and horizontally.

"Mingde, do you want to do another hexagram, this hexagram is really-" Jiang Bin hesitated for a moment and asked.

"The sky is so slim that my generation can easily snoop on. If you try to solve it, you will fall behind, and I am afraid that the hexagram of re-divination will be even more obscure. Jiang Yi said a little helplessly, Mingde is his word.

"Besides, listen to what my brother said, this Jingshi Suwei rushed all the way to Yidu, and sent troops to Linqu City on the second day without stopping. Jiang Yi frowned and continued.

Jiang Binwu didn't believe it, and on the same day, he decided that Tang Wuwei would go all the way south, and transport it by canal to Linqing, where it would be changed to a land route. All the way to Yidu, obtaining it is the meaning of the speed of the soldiers.

Since yesterday's send-off of the officers and soldiers, calculating the footsteps, today is the time of the big war. Jiang Bin was also a little depressed for no reason after waking up in the morning, remembering that he hadn't seen this younger brother outside the city for a while, so he simply called a small sedan chair in Tsing Yi and came to Tuoshan to meet.

Jiang Yi gently held up a cup of tea with one hand, lifted the lid of the cup with the other, slightly blew away the tea leaves floating on the tea, tapped the mouth of the cup with the lid of the cup, and said lightly: "Brother has been stationed in Beijing in recent months, and he may not know much about Linqu. ”

"I already knew about this matter, but it was just a trick to buy people's hearts and minds, although the small people were happy, but they forcibly seized the wealth of the local gentry and large households, and disregarded the common etiquette and law, and the heavens were angry and resentful, and they brought about their own destruction. Yidu City has investigated and learned that many gentry families have been ruined, and many have been forced to die, and the people sincerely hope that the king will relieve the people and destroy this thief as soon as possible! Jiang Bin said in a deep voice.

"The gentry and merchants are the cornerstone of the imperial court, and if they shake the fundamentals, although they are rampant for a while, they will not be able to achieve anything." Jiang Bin continued.

Jiang Yi nodded slightly, and then shook his head: "What makes my brother different is that he thinks that the gentry and businessmen are the pillars of the country, and this statement is difficult to tolerate the mouths of the world's scholars." Shinong industry and commerce, this "business", often ranked behind by the world's scholars, but the political malpractices of this dynasty are getting worse, the powerful are controlled, and the people are especially invaded, and now the gentry are bad, the merchants are difficult to do, and the people in various places are surging, why should the elder brother continue to serve the Mongolian people? ”

Jiang Bin was indifferent, took a sip of tea, looked at the bright sunshine outside, and there seemed to be a few eagles soaring in the blue sky, and said for a long time: "The disease of the mustard, why worry about it?" Since the founding of the country, there has been no one who has not been extravagant and arrogant. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, I emphasized practice and advocated Han law. The prime minister has ruled the Yellow River successively, paid taxes lightly, and resumed the imperial examination, which is undoubtedly not a move to benefit the people, although it is difficult to make trouble, but after all, there is a sign of Zhongxing, unlike the former Song Dynasty and other reuse of corrupt Confucianism, the destruction of the country and the people, and even the royal bloodline has been cut off. “

"Besides, my Jiang family has benefited from Wang Ende, so there is a place for you and me, without King Yi to cover up, the Jiang family has long been Yi clan, for the sake of reason, they should be repaid!"

Jiang Yi was speechless, the two had talked about this topic many times. Jiang Bin has the ambition to serve the country, and the righteousness of returning the favor, he is not hot-blooded, but the Yuan court is really more and more smoky, and there is no new atmosphere of the founding of the country, and the Yiwang Mansion is also becoming more and more filthy, what he has seen and heard in the past few years has made him even more disheartened, so he simply lives alone here, out of sight and out of mind.

The two brothers have different political views, and when they talk about government politics, they don't talk speculatively, and the scene can't help but be cold.

After a long time, Jiang Yi sighed: "Since ancient times, there have been few successful cases of Huaxia reforms, either they have been awkward halfway, or they have died in government, and it is rare for many people to have a good end. ”

Jiang Bin has a lot of confidence, but he still strives for Jiang Yi's relief: "What Mingde said does have a precedent, and the key to the success or failure of the law change lies in whether the leading person is guided by the situation and obtains the approval of the Son of Heaven." Lord Youcheng is in a high position and power, and has been assisting the saint for many years, and the subordinates of the court are deeply expected, if it weren't for the right Cheng's dedication to assisting the saint, how could he sit firmly in the high hall today? As long as the monarch and the minister get along, the following Xiaoxiao will not be able to turn over the wind and waves! ”

"Now that the imperial court is unable to make ends meet, the world is raging, and the younger brother is worried that the Yuan court will not last!" Jiang Yi said worriedly, "Since the issuance of the orthogonal banknote and Tongbao, the value of the currency has fallen repeatedly, and the government and the opposition have lost confidence in it. ”

"The money law is a good law, so why not read it with a crooked mouth!" Jiang Bin was irritable, he had high hopes for the new banknote law, but in the past few years, the price of goods has become higher and higher, like oil pouring fire, the imperial court has become more tight, and various places have not only returned to the old way of gold and silver storage, but also some government roads have begun to exchange goods and goods.

Jiang Bin pondered hard about this, and finally thought that the government was not clear, the powerful and powerful were gaining power, and the top and bottom took advantage of this to gather on a large scale, and the princes and princes from all over the country added fuel to the fire, and they were very happy. It was completely out of shape when the banknote law was implemented.

At that time, the Yuan court was extremely short of money, but the original issue of paper money because of the lack of money on the market, gold and silver are not allowed to circulate on a large scale, natural paper money depreciation is serious, in fact, even if the court liberalizes the use of gold and silver, the people are also difficult to circulate normally, because a large amount of gold and silver has been concentrated in the hands of the powerful and wealthy merchants in various places, and the people can only barely use copper baht.

The Yuan court was short of money, so it had to issue a large number of new banknotes to replace the old banknotes, but the banknotes were too much and too little, the value of the currency would inevitably shrink, the fiscal deficit could not be reversed, the hole was getting bigger and bigger, and it had to be issued incrementally again. The banknote law was a complete failure.

Jiang Bin shook his head and smiled bitterly, today I came to ask how the war is going, how can I get involved in the money law, and the political matter!
