"I am willing to do my best to be loyal to the king!" Meng Gongwei really didn't expect that what Pei Qing gave him was such a task, but this was not a loss for him, and it was even the most generous treatment, because he could improve his strength through study tours, and when the time came, he only needed to bring a few people back, and he would be able to further improve his strength, and he couldn't find such a good task even with a lantern.

And his task is not risky yet, because the task period given to him by Pei Qing is five to eight years, in case Pei Qing's strength really can't last at that time, he won't have any loss, just look for a master to take refuge.

It is precisely because such conditions are beneficial to him that Meng Gongwei of course chose to accept it even more.

It's just that Meng Gongwei still wanted to show more loyalty, so he said: "It's just that Jun, is this matter too simple for Jian?" Can you change it to another thing? In this way, it is more comfortable to build. ”

Pei Qing laughed when he heard this: "Don't think this matter is simple, I said that several characters are not easy to match, and it is definitely not an easy thing to deceive them on the boat, and it can even be said that it is extremely difficult, I have a work here that can help you, and when you are free in the future, you can study it from time to time." ”

Then Pei Qing took a scroll and handed it to Meng Gongwei.

Meng Gongwei opened it and took a look, only to see a few words written at the beginning of the "Hanging Mirror of the World", he didn't know what this meant, but he still put it away, thanked Pei Qing, and then received Pei Qing's reward, and then left Woniu Mountain with his belongings and books, and went straight to Xiangyang.

After sending Meng Gongwei away, Zhou Pei hurriedly came to Pei Qing, bowed to Pei Qing and asked, "I don't know what the envoy needs the villain to do?" But please tell the king, and the villain will do his best. ”

Pei Qing thought for a while, and said to Zhou Pei: "I know that Mr. Zhou is a child of a family, he has read a lot of books, and he will be handy when he wants to deal with internal affairs, and now I am about to enter Yingchuan, and I have more than 100,000 people around me, I want to let these 100,000 people get food through Tuntian, and at the same time provide me with strong material strength, but in this process, we must educate them, establish township pavilions, and coordinate contradictions, so I want to entrust Mr. to serve as the literary Peng of Yingchuan, not only responsible for establishing a county school, recruiting children to study, At the same time, he is also responsible for the education of the township, so that the Tuntian guests can produce with peace of mind, I wonder if Mr. is willing to take on this responsibility? ”

Zhou Pei was immediately moved when he heard this, because the position given to him by Pei Qing was not low, which was equivalent to the director of education at the municipal level in later generations, although the scale of the county school was very small at that time, and there were not even some of them, and there were not many people studying in Shangguan Xue, as for the township covenant education, it was a grassroots matter, but this was also a heavy responsibility for a person who had just defected.

So Zhou Pei immediately shook to the ground, flattered, and said to Pei Qing: "To make the king so trusted, Pei dare not to worry about it, for the sake of the king?" ”

Although Pei Qing didn't say anything about granting the elixir, of course Zhou Pei knew that this was a test for him, so Zhou Pei was now high-spirited and decided to do a good job to win Pei Qing's trust.

After that, Pei Qing appointed his subordinate officials, and Zhou Cang was engaged in the thief Cao, responsible for public security; Pei Yuanshao and Yin Kaishan were engaged in Bingcao and were responsible for defense; Xie Lingyun is the main bookkeeper, participates in confidential matters, and is in charge of various affairs of the Taishou Mansion, which is equivalent to the secretary general, Tang De is the county and Gongcao; Fanqin was engaged in Cangcao, Zhong Yan was engaged in Hucao, and Pei Qian was the lieutenant of Diannong, who was fully responsible for the affairs of Tuntian, and at the same time decided to wait for the current commanders of each county to personally inspect the current commanders of each county, and those who passed would continue to stay in office, and those who did not meet the requirements would be demoted or dismissed.

After making sufficient preparations, Pei Qing led more than 100,000 people, carrying production tools, ploughing cattle and other things down the mountain to Yingchuan.

As soon as they arrived at the border of Yingchuan, there was a local county order to greet the gentry, and those officials and gentry were all fat and big-eared, with red faces, and they looked like they were looting the people's fat and ointment.

These people also gave Pei Qing a lot of property, and Pei Qing laughed at it, because he had just come down the mountain, and it was not time to clean up these people, and the other reason was that if Pei Qing made a move now, one would easily cause antagonism with the entire officialdom of Yingchuan, and the other would also lead to a startling of the grass and snakes, so that the moths of those people would flee from the wind.

Therefore, Pei Qingcai quietly accepted the gift, and under the guidance of these people, he successfully came to Yangzhai, the county governor of Yingchuan, entered the county guard's mansion, and took charge of the entire Yingchuan County.

The day Pei Qing came to Yangzhai was Chinese New Year's Eve, so Pei Qing took out wine and meat, feasted guests, and enjoyed with the people, and at the same time issued a notice of peace for the people, promulgated various policies, arranged for the people to move to various places, and at the same time took over public security and defense, and was very busy.

After Pei Qing came to Yangzhai, he had already ordered the army to wait, thinking that if the governor of any county refused to surrender without opening his eyes, he would immediately order the army to attack, but he did not expect that the governors of the seventeen counties would all send people to the county guard mansion to report within one day, and send gifts to express their respect.

At this time, Pei Qing finally understood that this is because Yingchuan has been suffering from war in recent years, not only the common people, but also the local big families, especially during the year Yingchuan Taishou was killed by Xu Rong, which is even more worrying, for fear that one day a catastrophe will come, just at this time, Pei Qing led an army of more than 10,000 people into Yingchuan, which is simply a move in the snow, whether it is a big household or the people, they all hope that this army can help them guard Yingchuan to block the attack of strong enemies and ensure the stability of Yingchuan, Naturally, he expressed a great welcome to Pei Qing's entry.

Therefore, this time Pei Qing led the crowd into Yingchuan, which really seized an unprecedented good opportunity, which was exactly what the people wanted, the general trend, and the time was just right, because if it was a period of time, it would be taken over by Cao Cao, and if it was before that, it was still controlled by Sun Jian.

"Since I have chosen here, since everyone has chosen to believe me, then I must protect this land next, so that the people here can live a peaceful life, although I will eventually enter Nanyang in the future, but Yingchuan must not be left behind, I believe that with my ability, I will be able to do this, whether it is Dong Zhuo or Cao Cao, no one can take it away from my hands!"

Pei Qing said to himself silently with a strong confidence in his eyes.
