Zhang Bin chatted with Li Yan for a few words and found that this guy was quite dissatisfied with the imperial court, and he didn't believe that the imperial court would care about the life and death of the people.

This guy is indeed a good talent, Zhang Bin sent someone to his hometown Qi County to inquire, although this guy is one of the top squires in Qi County, but he is quite good to the people, he has personally persuaded Qi County to stop urging money and grain, to give the people a way to live, and once took out the only few hundred stones at home to save grain to help the victims, he also made a "Song of Persuasion", persuading those squires to donate money and grain, to help the victims, but no one urinated on him, so he resolutely joined Li Zicheng's peasant army.

After he joined the peasant army, he persuaded Li Zicheng to respect the virtuous and virtuous people, eliminate the mob and sympathize with the people, pretend to practice benevolence and righteousness, prohibit the army from fornicating and killing, and win people's hearts in order to achieve great things, and he even sent people to spread rumors everywhere, what "break into the king's benevolent and righteous army, do not kill or plunder" and what "open the gate to meet the king, and do not pay food when the king comes" and so on are all made up by him, after these rumors spread among the people, the number of displaced people who joined Li Zicheng's righteous army is simply as many as carp crossing the river, it can be said that Li Zicheng can develop to today's scale, and he accounts for most of the credit.

This kind of person, if he can be used by the imperial court, can definitely become a capable minister at the level of Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, and Bi Maokang.

The main reason why Zhang Bin asked people to secretly arrest him was to rebel against him, let him be an internal response, and recruit the elite of the Fuguang Army, the Guanning Iron Cavalry and the masters selected from his own personal guards into Li Zicheng's peasant army, so that he could act cheaply, and at the same time, Zhang Bin also took a fancy to this talent and wanted to take it for his own use.

Now it seems that this guy has a deep grudge against the court, how can he win it over?

Naturally, he likes to hear it!

Zhang Bin pretended to be mysterious and said: "Some time ago, it was widely spread that Chongzhen has no virtue, is angry with heaven, conforms to the will of heaven, and has you heard of the old and the new?" ”

Isn't this nonsense, no one in the world has ever heard of it, Li Yan said inexplicably: "I've heard of it, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Bin said proudly: "I made it up, how about it, is it the same as what you made up to open the door to the king, and when the king came, he didn't pay for food, is it the same?" ”

When Li Yan heard this, he was dumbfounded, he dared to say such a big rebellious thing in front of so many officers and soldiers, didn't he want to live?

He couldn't help but turn his head and look at the generals on both sides, will these people be indifferent, everyone has made it clear that they are making rumors about the emperor, this is a bully, you know no.

When he saw this, he couldn't help but be even more surprised.

These people didn't react at all, as if they hadn't heard.

What's going on, are these people all the cronies of this Shousuke-sama?

It's impossible, there are more than ten generals here, and this Shoufu can have so many military cronies!

He couldn't help but say tentatively: "I heard that the dog emperor was under house arrest, did you do it too?" ”

Zhang Bin nodded with a smile and said, "Clever, but don't talk about this nonsense, everyone just knows it, there's no need to spread it everywhere." ”

, this guy, in the end I'm a thief, you're a thief? You even dare to clean up when you are the emperor!

Li Yan subconsciously raised his hand, pointed at Zhang Bin and said in disbelief: "You, you are so bold!" ”

Zhang Bin said indifferently: "What is this, I also killed Wen Tiren, Zhang Zhifa, Xue Guoguan, Zhou Yanru and other four cabinet chiefs in a row, and I also arrested nearly two hundred courtiers and copied their family property!" ”

, this guy is so ruthless, you don't do this to exclude dissidents, you have to steal all the people's property after you arrest people, this is simply a copy of Wei Zhongxian!

Li Yan couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to learn from Wei Zhongxian's one-handed cover?" ”

Zhang Bin shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I'm not cleaning up these people for myself." ”

There's something wrong, don't you put the emperor under house arrest for yourself, and you cleaned up so many courtiers!

Li Yan couldn't help but be surprised: "Then what are you for?" ”

Zhang Bin said of course: "For the sake of the people of Li, how can Chongzhen live if he doesn't clean up the people, and the officials I cleaned up are not my political enemies, but corrupt officials and corrupt officials, I copied more than 70 million taels of silver from these people's homes, how greedy do you say they are?" ”

More than 70 million taels!

How is it possible, Li Zicheng has robbed half of Henan's local tyrants and squires and royal relatives, and he has not grabbed 10 million taels in total, and hundreds of officials can copy more than 70 million taels, how can they be greedy for hundreds of thousands of taels!

Li Yan was a little speechless in shock, he looked at Zhang Bin in a daze, like a monster.

Zhang Bin said proudly: "Why, don't believe it, you will see it, after cleaning up the thieves, I will exchange the money for food, farm tools and improved seeds, and distribute them to the people affected by the disaster, so that they can be self-reliant and live a prosperous life." ”

Really?

Tell myths!

Li Yan was seriously skeptical: "Are you so good?" ”

Zhang Bin pretended to be a saint: "It is my ideal to save the country and the people, and for this reason I even do not hesitate to throw my head and spill my blood, this little thing is nothing." ”

Pretend, you!

Li Yan said in disbelief: "That's 70 million taels, aren't you blushing?" ”

Zhang Bin said coaxingly: "Will I care about this money?" ”

Blow it, you!

Li Yan still said in disbelief: "You really want to use this money for disaster relief?" ”

Zhang Bin seemed a little annoyed and asked, "You don't believe it?" ”

Li Yan shook his head firmly and said, "I don't believe it." ”

Zhang Bin thought for a while, and suddenly said like crazy: "That's okay, I'll let you serve as the head of the household department, the governor of the warehouse, and be responsible for the allocation of disaster relief materials, do you dare to take it?" ”

, the household servant, the court member of the third grade, this guy is not too powerful, and the big one has hallucinations, he really thinks he is the emperor!

Li Yan reminded: "Lord Shoufu, this is not a question of whether I dare to take it, I am just a lifter, the household servant is a member of the Zhengsanpin Imperial Court, and the general jinshi can't be a general, you let me be a thief, I'm afraid all the courtiers will not accept it, right?" ”

Zhang Bin said indifferently: "What's wrong with lifting people, Chen Xinjia, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, is also a lifter, and everyone deserves it, can't you be a waiter?" ”

And this kind of thing!

Li Yan really didn't know that the previous military department Shangshu was just a person, but now that he knows, his mind instantly became active, if what this Shoufu Lord said is true, then it would be good, it can not only solve the problem of hungry people, but also be a household servant, this kind of good thing, he couldn't think of it before!

He didn't want to enter the officialdom before because he felt that it was useless for him to enter the officialdom, he couldn't fight those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he couldn't save the people of Limin, so why bother to find abuse, now as soon as he enters the officialdom, he is a household servant, and he can mobilize more than 70 million taels to save the people of Limin, what else is there to say, his ideals can be realized.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Bin immediately added fuel and vinegar: "In this way, you will be a waiter for three years first, and you will make up for a jinshi when you take the next exam, and then the six books and even the cabinet scholars will have your share, as long as you can do a good job of disaster relief for me, you will have a bright future." ”

Make up for a jinshi? You're talking light!

Li Yan regretted a little and said: "Alas, I haven't studied for a few years, I'm afraid it will be difficult for this Jinshi to get in!" ”

Zhang Bin said strongly: "I said that you can do it, you don't have to worry about this, it depends on whether you are willing to serve the imperial court." ”

The strong self-confidence revealed in his words infected Li Yan, this Shoufu Lord can even be cleaned up by the emperor, what else can't be done!

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Shoufu, what do you want me to do?" ”

You have used it all, which is to show respect, to show that he is willing to become an official under Zhang Bin, the first assistant.

It's done!

Zhang Bin couldn't help but show a bright smile on his face, now Li Zicheng is finished.
