Liang Hongying hugged her fists sadly and angrily: "Then let's strike first, go to uproot the Chai family, and quell the catastrophe?" ”

Gao Fangping shook his head and said: "It's not that simple, the above remarks have not become reality, they are just my inferences." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info If the Chai family is moved just by inference, now that Cai Jing is in power, he can really be sent to the guillotine. What's more, the Chai family is a place to hide filth and dirt, and the most like to make friends with the outlaws of the Jianghu rangers, with our current strength, we may not be able to beat the Chai family. At that time, the situation outside the city was not yet stable, but we first fought a civil war with the Chai family inside, which was unpredictable! ”

Han Shizhong clenched his fists viciously and said: "Calculate the good minister, already take precautions, count the time, General Shi Wengong's department, now it is fifty miles north of Chen Bingyang Valley, Xiao Niu Gao has already followed the military order, and the task of beacon fire transmission must have been completed!" The situation is at a critical juncture, please issue an order immediately to summon the Yongle army to march into Gaotang as soon as possible! ”

Gao Fangping shook his head with a blushing face and said, "I can't move yet!" The person who went to the Daimyo's Mansion to deliver a letter and find Liang Zhongshu for help still has no news. Without the handsome order of Liang Zhongshu of the Northern 1 Beijing to stay in Xianggong Liang, once the Yongle Army entered the Hebei East Road to march, and now that Cai Jing is in power, he can still send me and my father to the guillotine! ”

Han Shizhong sighed, Liang Hongying was already popular. They are deeply touched that it is so difficult to do something, and at present, Xiao Gao Xianggong is just a sesame official in the county, but because he has offended the interests of too many people, every step he takes is a war. Embattled, from the imperial court to the people, to bandits and thieves, these groups have not stopped chasing Gao Fangping.

"Report!"

There was no explanation here, and a herald came to report: "Report to the county honor, outside the three zhang of the city gate now, some people have gathered in flagrant violation of the curfew order, some say that they want to pick mulberry, and some say that they want to go out to chop firewood and equip them with heating firewood for the winter." There are also some people, because they have some terraces on the high ground far away, and the grain is waiting to be harvested, and they cannot be delayed. Now this group of people thought that there was going to be a war, although the Shihan girl said that it was dangerous outside the city, but it was the fruit of their hard work for a whole year, without those grains, and winter was coming, and the children and old people of the family could no longer see the next spring. Therefore, more and more people gathered, and it was related to the interests of the concubines of those people, and they did not give in. ”

"Do you really think my command is a joke?"

Gao Fangping blushed and left with his hands behind his back, followed by Han Shizhong and Liang Hongying......

At the city gate, more than 200 people gathered, men and women, old and young, and the prime of life. And it's still increasing.

Of course, this group of people is anxious, it is related to their food for the winter, the fruits of their hard work for a year, if the grain cannot be recovered, they are also facing the possibility of fleeing, because not only do they not have food for the winter, but they are also unable to pay the taxes of the dynasty! As a result, he had a reputation as a tax-resistant mob, and it was difficult not to run away at that time.

The first time Gao Fangping arrived, he just glanced at it and settled down. Although they were anxious, because of the order to "cut off the city wall three zhang near the city gate", they still had reason, and they always stood outside the forbidden line, and never crossed the thunder pool.

From here, they are lovely, willing to plant diligently and care for food, and they are all good citizens.

But when Gao Fangping passed by with his back hand, he frowned again, and the situation at the scene was a little strange. Among the groups gathered to ask to leave the city, standing at the front of the forbidden line, facing the bows and spears of the army, on the contrary, the old people, children, and women, and a few young and middle-aged people shrank behind, as if they were still consciously squeezing forward, as if they wanted to squeeze some people beyond the forbidden line to see what would happen.

He Shihan blocked between the county government army and the people, and tried his best to explain the rules and intentions of the county government to everyone, and asked the people not to get excited.

There is no doubt about He Shihan's prestige among civilians, and after her participation in persuasion, most of them accepted the curfew order. It's just that the current group is related to their survival interests, so I can't help but come.

But the situation at the scene, although they gathered to ask for an explanation, after He Shihan's bitter words, the women, children and old people in front also tried their best to stand firm and suppress, not wanting to be squeezed by the people behind to exceed the forbidden line.

The scene is so critical and temporary, and a balance is formed. Until Gao Fangping came.

Many people don't even know Gao Fangping, but they just heard that the county lord Gao Lian is seriously ill and can't see the wind, and the acting county lord of Gao Tang is Gao Lian's younger brother Gao Fangping, the person who has the title of the Great Demon King.

After Gao Fangping arrived, the scene temporarily stopped. Many people stopped talking, and so did those who were squeezing in the back.

"Mr. Shihan has worked hard, what you did for Gao Tang will be remembered by this official." Gao Fangping clenched his fist at her.

This is also the first time that Gao Fangping called her Mr. instead of a girl.

Theoretically, in the Great Song Dynasty, the person who reads is a "scholar". Doctors are also scholars. Of course, the people who are officials are called "masters or adults", so the group of scholars who can't be officials usually become teachers in Langzhong or Mengxue, and these two kinds of people are also respected by everyone as "Mr."

Yes, including women are also called sir. For example, Li Qingzhao is a woman, but her name is "Yi'an Jushi", in which the "Shi" means Mr. He Shihan is known as a cottage monk in Gaotang, and it is also everyone's respect for him.

Of course, if a woman in this era wants to be called a sir, she must be better. Gao Fangping held his own identity, and he was stunned earlier and didn't call her Mr.

He Shihan also said politely: "The husband is polite." ”

This is also the first time she has called Gao Fangping Xianggong.

Gao Fangping nodded, no longer polite, he went up to the city wall with his hands on his back, and stood on a high place, facing everyone.

"Acting master, please have mercy on me, our field is far away, in the terraced fields on the mountainside, the autumn harvest we are waiting for has not yet been completed, that is the income of our hard work for a year, I heard that it is about to fight, can't let the food I wait for have an accident, I need to go out of the city to grab the harvest!"

For a while, many people knelt on the ground and launched their own demands. The chaotic begging for mercy, scolding, and the crying of children were mixed together.

Under the emotion, a few young and strong people in the back squeezed forward again, and a half-grown child in front almost crossed the forbidden line.

Under the command of the guards of the tiger head battalion, the array of county officials on the city gate was tense, the bowstring had been opened, the arrows were on the string, and the hands of the pinched arrows were full of sweat. Because Xiao Gao Xianggong issued a death order, crossing the forbidden line is a rebellion, and he will be decided! However, these are all villagers, many of whom are acquaintances, friends, and even relatives of these archers!

Gao Fangping never spoke, stared at him calmly as water for a long time, and frowned again.

Seeing that most of them were kneeling and crying, some young and strong people in the back with big tempers did not kneel on the ground and kept squeezing...... Gao Fangping thought for a while and suddenly shouted: "Order, all kneel down and beg for mercy!" ”

The word "order" was insensitive to the crying people, and they were a little confused, but a few strong men in the back who were squeezing did not react for a while, and knelt on the ground cleanly.

So, under the influence of those few neat people, the remaining young people knelt on the ground.

"Get up." Gao Fangping suddenly smiled again: "Get up and talk slowly." ”

So they got up again, it was still the same, many people were confused, confused, and calmed down with curiosity, paying attention to the actions of the great demon king.

Gao Fangping tilted his head, looked at Liang Hongying and Han Shizhong and said in a low voice: "What difference do you see?" ”

Han Shizhong narrowed his eyes and said word by word: "The eleven people in the rear are obviously not 'people', but like people who are used to receiving orders and being disciplined!" ”

Liang Hongying nodded and confirmed: "Yes, the figure of the people Han Shizhong said when they got up is absolutely certain that they have a martial arts background, and they are by no means ordinary ordinary people who farm the land!" ”

Gao Fangping nodded, waved his hand coldly and said, "Take down those people!" ”

After that, Han Shizhong held a knife to guard Gao Fangping's side, and Liang Hongying rushed into the crowd with twelve tiger guards, making chickens and dogs jump, three times and five times, and then arrested the suspicious eleven strong men, and tied them up without saying anything.

The next eleven men who had come to gain strength were pressed to their knees on the head of the city. This was originally a very hateful thing in a group incident, but since the people didn't know those guys, it was strange why they would follow them to the terraces to rescue food? It is said that the people who plant on the terraces on the mountainside usually take pictures of each other, and even if they are not familiar with them, they will never see them, but these people have just shouted the slogan of going to the terraces to rescue grain. But no one knew them.

Of course, Gao Fangping is very clear about what the eyes of the ordinary people represent, and he also knows very well what these people do.

After walking a few steps on the city wall with his hands behind his back, Gao Fangping suddenly stopped and said: "This official has a strict order, under the curfew state, there is a heavy penalty for walking around the street without special matters!" Men in the prime of life, more than five people gather without obtaining approval, heavy fines! If the natural gathering exceeds the upper limit of the number of people, and there is no advance report, a heavy penalty will be imposed! ”

After a pause, Gao Fangping looked at the eleven big men kneeling on the city wall with a cold face and said coldly: "Tell this official, do you have any so-called special matters when you go to the streets?" ”

The kneeling people looked at each other, lowered their heads and did not speak. One of them said cleverly: "I'm waiting together, and I'm going to go to the mountainside to rescue the grain from the terraces." ”

"Oh?" Gao Fangping said, "What are your fields?" What is your name, say it, these county officials will have a record, and the official can check it immediately. ”

“？” A few people couldn't speak.

Gao Fangping looked at the large crowd of people again and said, "Most of you are growers of terraced fields on the mountainside, who knows these people?" ”

The common people didn't know what the problem was, but they all shook their heads honestly.

"Fool this official! Lying about the military in a state of war, a felony, is on the record! Gao Fangping shouted.

Immediately, the clerk of the county government was next to him and recorded the charge of "lying about the military situation." (To be continued.) )
