"The war is really coming to an end."

Cai Wenji said in a low voice, "I'm not used to seeing bandits get such treatment, but the holy decree has arrived, and this is also Grandpa's will." I'm afraid you're really wrong this time, after today, Wang Xiu has also become an official soldier. I'm here to tell you the news, and I know you're not going to admit defeat and you're always concerned about it......"

Zhao Cheng raised his hand to interrupt, "Don't talk nonsense, it really doesn't matter if I'm right or wrong." Do you think I'm the kind of person who wants to save face, and if I want to save face, I would go to the construction site to make mud legs? If I want to save face, will I carry the black pot for Qin Ming? ”

Cai Wenji couldn't help but feel sorry, he was really such a person.

Zhao Cheng narrowed his eyes, "You just tell me, what's the situation in the state city now?" ”

"The curfew has been lifted and order has not yet fully restored, but refugees outside the city are being evacuated in batches after receiving the last batch of food, and some people who have no livelihood are starting to leave the city to make a living."

Cai Wenji said curiously.

"This Nima is finished."

Zhao Cheng got up violently, "Zhang Shangying, this old master is a real scholar, a mallet, he thought that Wang Xiu would be afraid of the millions of troops on the books of the imperial court, and he always thought that ordinary people would be grateful for the holy decree of exoneration, so he thought that if he was Wang Xiu, he would definitely accept the conditions." ”

After all, Zhao Cheng was too correct in the past, so Cai Wenji was worried again, and she didn't know what to say.

Zhao Cheng calmed down again and said, "What about your father and Huang Wenbing?" ”

Cai Wenji said, "Lord Huang is the military commander of Chizhou, and he followed Zhang Shangying. As for the treacherous father, who knows what he was thinking, he said that he was sick and took leave and refused to follow Zhang Shangying. ”

Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, the traitor has the benefits of the traitor, and the mud has the benefits of the mud, although Lao Cai can't bear Zhang Shangying with his weak legs, he always has a trick.

"That's good."

Zhao Cheng slapped his thigh, "Little lady Cai, are you sure your father is sick in public?" ”

"Not in public, but in front of a lot of key officials." Cai Wenji said.

"This means that he doesn't want to be responsible, and he shouldn't interfere when something happens."

Zhao Cheng immediately said, "Miss Cai, if you trust me, you should immediately go back and pester your father now, and persuade him to continue to pretend to be sick, no matter how monstrous the flood is, can you do it?" ”

"It should ...... I guess it's okay. It's just that what you're going to do, you won't be ......"

Cai Wenji hesitated.

Zhao Cheng said, "Shangguan is not here, as long as your father is 'sick' and can't handle affairs, then this Chizhou City is Pei Zhi County's final say." Just believe me this time, if you don't want to die, if you don't want to shed a river of blood, just go and drag him down. I'll go to see Lao Pei, as long as Lao Pei dares to make a move, this Chizhou may still be saved. ”

This is like trying to make a big deal and seize power, which caused Cai Wenji to have a black line on her face.

But when I thought that he was right again and again, I thought that he was very convincing even if he talked nonsense, not to mention that Cai Wenji was still a little soft-footed shrimp, so he had to agree with a twist, "Well, okay, anyway, this is also Daddy's wish, he just doesn't like to do things and take responsibility." Although you may not be able to win, I also believe that you are not a rebellion, and you will not mess around. ”

After this sentence, Zhao Cheng decisively went out and went to the main hall to see Lao Pei......

Lao Pei has not interfered in military and political affairs at all for a long time, and is basically a food and security officer, only responsible for pacifying refugees and catching thieves.

Zhao Cheng suddenly came in and threw out some sensational words, Lao Pei was now cold-hearted, and he was still a little confused.

"Is it really like what you said, the state city may fall?"

Pei Zhixian walked around anxiously. In fact, although he asked so, he already believed it when he looked at him.

"Not sure, but I call it risk management."

Zhao Cheng said eloquently, "Zhang Shangying did this because of blind confidence. His approach has gone beyond the safety margin of the Chizhou government, so even if he knows that it is a piece of meat and can be eaten at one time, he can't bite it. At the same time, he needs to show Wang Xiu to reassure Wang Xiu, and also said that the government has confidence. But this is to die to save face and live to suffer. It's right to keep one hand, but it just depends on whether Master Pei dares to take this risk now? ”

"Tell me about the risks you will be carrying?" Lao Pei was curious.

Zhao Cheng said, "We need to immediately turn our backs on Zhang Shangying's guidance and curfew Chizhou City again." Immediately stop deporting the refugees, let them into the city, and promise to give them money, food, and preferential conditions after today. By the way, I'm sure that since the suspension of my county lieutenant, the state city has a lot of loopholes, and during this period of relaxation, many of Wang Xiu's spies must have been put in the city. Immediately let me out of the mountains, mobilize the refugees and the residents of the city, immediately recall my old team, and let them lead the masses to vigorously search for Wang Xiu's spies. ”

"This ......"

Lao Pei hesitated.

Cai You asked for leave and now Guichi County is Lao Pei who has the final say, and he will have an immediate curfew for safety, even if he seems to be a little overstepping.

But instead of the state government's indiscriminate promises, and letting refugees into the city, it is a bit serious.

"The most serious thing is that now that the Zhao'an Holy Decree has arrived, I do this, I don't trust Wang Xiu so much, let the refugees into the city and use your problem character, to search for the so-called spies, once I can't get no real evidence, you and I will be blamed, and it will be said to be against the imperial court and force against Wang Xiu."

Pei Yancheng said solemnly, "I don't dare, I just ask how sure you are?" ”

Zhao Cheng said: "We don't carry this pot, Wang Xiu is still forced if he is reversed?" Is it fake that he killed hundreds of officers and soldiers? Whether to oppose the imperial court or not, at least in the present two theories where Zhang Shuye still wants to use force. As long as there are people to support it, as long as you dare, of course your behavior will be a little inappropriate, but after all, it can barely be regarded as the government affairs of Guichi County. The point is that Cai You is really sick, and Cai Wenji will help him not show up for the time being. It can be assumed that he is seriously ill and unable to command Chizhou. In the absence of a judgment, the other birdmen are only executors rather than decision-makers, and you have the final say in your Guichi County. ”

Pei Yancheng hesitated for a while, "In the end, I only asked, now you are indiscriminately promising conditions, those refugees are tens of thousands, how will you fulfill them later?" The appeasement is not good, in the case that you and I are at fault, they gathered tens of thousands of words to petition Zhang Shangying and Cai You, and assuming that Wang Xiu did not oppose it, and offended the court, you and I really hit the street? ”

Zhao Cheng said: "There is no one I can't use, I'm just afraid that there are not enough people, and I have a strategy in my head." Now those who can gather as refugees have no foundation, no support, and will not go up the mountain, as long as such people are given preferential policies, I will take them to raise pigs, chickens, cement, and engage in industry, and any promise can be fulfilled, and it can be a win-win situation. The premise is: You dare to set things right now, and you need to take a certain risk, because there is really a small number of possibilities that Wang Xiu wanted to Zhao'an, but was pitted by you and me's black beatings, and Zhang Shangying had a good reputation and great persuasion at that time. He will become a person who is bent on the world, and you and I are street rats even if they are not guilty, and they become destabilizing villains when stability overrides everything. ”

Pei Yancheng was dizzy for a while, "You only said how likely it is?" ”

Zhao Cheng said slightly embarrassed: "It's hard to say...... After all, it takes some luck to do anything, and brushing your face is a must. ”

", forget it."

Lao Pei pointed to his nose, "You dare to bet on people who are easier to die than me, and I dare to bet even more when I am alone, and I will hand it over to you this time." ”

In fact, Zhao Cheng is hurting Lao Pei. If something really happens, Zhao Cheng has a system, and there is also the white agarwood department, and there is a way to go. As for Lao Pei Zhen, he will cry blindly, but unfortunately everyone has gambling nature, and the possibility estimated by Zhao Cheng is too sensational.

For this reason, Lao Pei is willing to take some risks and bet on the most important moment of this life. If Zhao Cheng guessed it, in addition to saving many lives, even if he didn't survive in the end, it would be an opportunity for eternity......
