As the sun came, the wind gradually rose, and the dark clouds covered the sky again. The snow fell all day.

In a water village by Shuibo, a big banner with a beam is hung at the head of the village, but it is a resting place for the Liangshanbo patrolmen. Since Yu Cui Yu let Guan Sheng go in the battle that day, Wen Cui and the others returned to the mountain to accept punishment. Heavily responsible for a hundred military sticks, deducting a year's silver ring, and depriving the two of them of a chair in the Justice Hall.

Lu Qian was not really angry in his heart, that Guan Dadao was still holding a piece of fierce loyalty to the old Zhao family, even if he was captured, it was just that there were more first-class prisoners of war in the upper district. Wen Cui and the others indulged Guan Sheng this time, which can be regarded as a complete old friendship, and they will no longer show mercy to their subordinates in the battle array in Japan. Instead, Guan Sheng owed Liang Shanbo a favor.

Truth be told, it's not a big deal.

But on the face, Lu Qian had to punish the two, and also set up a new village rule, if anyone dares to do this in the future, don't blame him Lu for being ruthless. Even if you really want to bypass the other party, catch the cottage, and show your feelings, the cottage is a big deal to let people go. But if Wen Cui is like Wen Cui, he can't take away the enemy generals without half of the luxury, but it is absolutely impossible.

Wen Zhongrong and Cui Yu had no complaints, and they were not wronged even if they were beheaded. Now that they have only been punished, although there are no two people in the righteous hall, they are still qualified to observe, which is the biggest opportunity for Lu Qian to stay with them. Everyone knows that the lord of Lu Dazhai really has really hurt the two of them, and the two of them can recover as long as they make contributions in the coming days.

Wen Zhongrong is now one of the leaders of the many patrol teams outside Shuibo, and so is Cui Yu. The two were driven down the mountain before their injuries healed, and they braved the wind and snow all day long, leading the team to patrol the area around the porridge field. There was no complaint.

Surrounding the brazier, Wen Zhong turned around in pain and gulped down his wine. Outside the paper window, a few gusts of cold wind blew loudly. The guard lifted the curtain, looked out, shrunk his neck and turned around and said, "It's so snowy outside, and it's like goose feathers flying." ”

Wen Zhongrong was not interested at all, when he was in the calf village, every winter, it was covered with heavy snow, and passers-by couldn't see one, which made people so bored. He wrapped himself in a leather cloak and ate three or five more drinks in quick succession. He asked the guards to bring him a cover, wrapped his cloak and fell upward, and fell asleep.

Tonight is a rare rest, and it can only be done once every five days, especially when it coincides with heavy snowfall.

It's just that Wen Zhongrong didn't sleep for long before he was woken up by the guards, but there was an urgent report from the cottage, asking him to hurry back to the Juyi Hall quickly.

The guards lifted the curtains, and Wen Zhongrong looked out. I saw that the sky outside the outline was dark in the morning, only the fire in the courtyard was bright, and the snowflakes that took care of it were like sprinkling a white salt, and the white land was really clean! On the stepping stone in front of the eaves, the snow has long been piled up a few inches thick, and there are no traces of filth.

When he arrived at the righteous hall of the cottage, he saw the lights everywhere from a distance. When I got to the ground, I saw Zhou Jin, who was like a door god. This person's status is the same as that of Wen Zhongrong and Cui Yu, and he can be described as a trainee leader. didn't see Cui Yu, Wen Zhongrong knew that Cui Yu was patrolling between Jeju City and Juye, no better than him in Qinghe County, and he couldn't come back in a short time.

There is still a lack of flower monk Lu Zhishen and others in the hall, and they have been gone for a month and have not yet returned. I don't know how things are going.

Wen Zhongrong was the last one to arrive, and when he heard a bell ringing outside, Lu Qian walked in through the back door on the left side of the hall. His eyes swept over the faces of the people in front of him, although some people were missing, but they were still full of talents.

Lin Chong sat in the first chair on his left hand, but the person opposite him was Fang Tianding. It has been a short time for the Manichaean people to go to Liangshan Dazhai, and Wang Yin led a few people to go back to Jiangnan shortly after Lu Zhishen and others went down the mountain. But Fang Tianding, Fang Jie, Gao Yu and others had no intention of leaving. Obviously, their identity as "students" is to be done to the end.

Lu Qian greeted everyone, his face was serious, and the atmosphere in the hall became serious.

"At such a time, inviting all brothers and sisters to the righteous hall is a great event." Lu Qian said Zong Ze's words one by one, and saw that there seemed to be a cannon battle in the hall, and it was boiling. More than 100,000 people, hundreds of thousands of lives, this is something that none of them ever thought of.

No matter how vicious the people in the green forest are, can they kill hundreds or thousands of people? More than 100,000 lives, the weight is really too heavy.

Of course, there is a phenomenon to be noted. Everyone present, whether it is a hero in the south of the Yangtze River or a hero in the north, listening to Lu Qian's words, none of them questioned Zong Ze's mistake, and everyone was convinced.

Whether it is Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Xu Ning, Pei Xuan, Yang Zhi, Suo Chao, etc., who were born in the officialdom, or Du Qian, Shi Qian, Ma Lin, Deng Fei, etc., who were born in the green forests of the rivers and lakes, or small people such as Sanruan, the Hu family brothers and sisters, and Li Ying.

Lu Qian saw all this in his eyes, and was secretly surprised in his heart, he had traveled for more than a year, but he didn't know that this old Zhao family's court official was so unbearable in the minds of the officials and the people. It's ridiculous that Song Huizong indulged in fun and enjoyment, and Shang Wu thought that his country was a prosperous year.

Looking at this place, Lu Qian has not really fully understood the current season. In his past life and present life, he did not have such a memory of cruelty to the people, and his memory of Zhao Song in his previous life was prosperity and wealth, and the article was prosperous, only under the force; And in Lu Qian's memory in this life, there are countless pickled deeds under the seemingly prosperous Zhao family, but such a large amount has never been seen.

Lu Qian is "more informed and less knowledgeable", although he inherited the physical memory, but what he remembered was only the people and things that were deeply imprinted in the cerebral cortex, and some miscellaneous things disappeared.

He didn't know that such things were not uncommon in the history of the Zhao and Song dynasties. For example, in the seventh year of Yuanfeng of the Shenzong Dynasty, in the area of Shanzhou and Huazhou, Baoding led by Shan An, Wang Qidonkey, Zhang Xieliu, etc., launched a large-scale uprising, and once attacked Weizhou City.

This Baoding is the militia to which the Baojia Law goes, and the Baojia Law is one of the policies in Xining's reform of the law. For rural households, every ten families have one guarantee, five guarantees are one big guarantee, and ten major guarantees are one guarantee. The richest of the households is the chief of the household, the chief of the chief, and the chief of the capital. The militia was trained to prevent theft/peasant revolt, and also to strengthen the military and save money on military expenditures.

It's just that no matter how good a policy is, if it is put in the mouth of people with bad intentions, it will also be biased.

After Wang Anshi was dismissed, he personally went to the front desk to preside over the change of the law of Song Shenzong, changed the Yuan Yuanfeng, and put the five roads of Shaanxi, Hedong and Hebei as the armor side by side, the original intention was to organize the armor to protect the armor. However, the government's frequent education and reading have brought a heavy burden to Baoding, which not only seriously affects the family's agricultural production, but also suffers from the bullying and blackmail of Baozheng, Baochang, Inspector, and Inspector subordinates, and the instigation of Baojia's Division, and engaging in official business. As a result, many Baoding would rather self-destruct their limbs in order to avoid being taught, and incidents of fleeing are endless.

The oppression of the peasants by the Zhao and Song dynasties was very harsh. Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty said: The ancients carved and peeled the law, and this dynasty has all the preparations. It can be said that the weight of the burden is several times that of ancient times. But the people surnamed Zhao are smart, although they take their wealth from the people, they do not leave any surplus, but they always let the people have a mouthful of food to eat; At the same time, those who are gracious to the officials are afraid of their insufficiency. A large number of good dogs have been raised.

But sometimes, the scholars know that they can't do it, and the consequences are serious.

Baojia is a division, and the officials above and below have no intention of loving the people, so the people regard their lawsuits as tigers and wolves, accumulating anger and resentment, and everyone is the same, so they rise up and resist.

The development of the situation happened to go to the opposite side of Song Shenzong's wishes. And that's what the old party bigwigs and their supporters want to see.

To say that there are no hands and feet of the old party in this is not believed by people.

Who said that this change made the land annexation and lending of Haoqiang subject to many restrictions, and caused officials to reduce some privileges, which not only violated the interests of officials, but also touched the interests of Haoqiang. And the latter is not the chief of the armor protection law, the chief of the big and the chief of the capital.

Not all the integrity in the world is called Chao Gai.

Song Shenzong was already mentally devastated by the successive defeats of the Western Army against Xia, and his body was ill for a long time. Yuanfeng was already seriously ill when he was seven years old, and the Baoding Uprising born in this year was a heavy blow to him. Because this matter is directly related to the armor protection law. If this law is not an evil law that "harms the people and cripples the people", why would it make Bao Ding angry and start an incident and attack the state and besiege the city?

As an idealist, Zhao Ji (Shenzong) pursued his ideals all his life, and he hoped to rebuild a strong country and recreate the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties. When these dreams were shattered, Zhao Xiang also came to the end of his life.

In the second year, Song Shenzong, who was less than forty years old, died. The nine-year-old son Zhao Xu succeeded to the throne as Song Zhezong. Shortly after his death, the new law, which he had spent all his life losing, was completely repealed by his mother, Empress Dowager Gao, who was known as the female Zhongyao Shun by the literati doctors, during her nine-year reign.

The so-called, "Sima Guang enters the phase, and the new law is all over".

In the past forty or fifty years, the old and new parties have struggled and used all kinds of means. Now what Zong Ze said is just an old handiwork, and it was used by Cai Jing and others to change its appearance and then use it. [In my personal opinion, Xu is a little extreme. Because in the more than 100 years of history of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were more than 200 peasant uprisings, but most of them were small in scale. The scope of the impact does not extend beyond the territory of a state. There are very few such as the Fangla Uprising. It is difficult to say that such a situation is caused by the right or wrong policy, and the internal causes are very complex, but there are inevitably 'accidents' caused by differences in the nature and starting points of officials. 】

The lives of the people are not worth mentioning in their eyes. When Shenzong Dynasty Puzong Meng knew Puzhou, he brutally suppressed the people who rebelled, "although the petty theft is a small crime, it also breaks its tendons." Though the thief is decaying, he shall not be able to kill him." In the third year of Yuan You (1088), when the general Tongzheng suppressed the popular rebellion led by Cen Tan in Guangdong, "thieves killed thousands of civilians, and the harm was worse than that of Cen Tan".

The officials of the Great Song Dynasty did not hesitate to the people except for their names, and they were often "officers and soldiers, thieves, looting together, cities and villages, searching all over." The thieves have retreated, the devastation has not been resolved, the officials have not been in peace, but have been more entrenched, the soldiers have been violent, and the only things are pleading, and the voices of the people are everywhere, and the people's hearts are scattered, and they are as endless as silk." After the military repression, the local government has always withered away, and it has not recovered the eleventh of the past.

The most educated person in the hall is Gao Yu, who thought of the people of Jiangnan after listening to it and felt the same way. shouted at the moment: "In the past 30 years, the old ministers have been degraded to death, and above the court today, the people in power are all filthy and evil people, but they know that they are obscene and lustful, and they do not care about the local people. The disturbance of the flower stone, the policy of the field, especially the Fukan. The people of the southeast have been suffering from exploitation for a long time! The rich land of Qilu will also take away the blood of the child. ”

"However, Cai thieves and eunuchs are all cunning, how can they not know that they are full of grievances, they will be thieves and wilderness, and people's hearts will carry two, which can make the world swoon. With such a chaotic government, how can the emperor not be angry with his treachery? I am afraid that the day when the world will be distorted, it is the time when the power of their generation is bound to dissipate like a cloud of smoke. At that time, life is in danger. ”

"Under such a risk, tens of thousands or even more lives are counted in their eyes?"

"Guizhai is righteous and benevolent, and its reputation is far-reaching, and it is admired by all the people. Like the torch of the night, the people of Qilu are excited, and the righteous men are trustworthy. In the midst of his evil government, under the anger of the masses, if the big boss rises up in righteousness, the four sides will hear the wind and respond; In the middle of the day, a hundred thousand people can be gathered. When the time comes, the whole world can go, will not the generations be afraid? He is the one who wants to get rid of it and then he is happy. ”

"The previous several conquests of soldiers and horses show the intentions of their generation. In the future, the commander of the elite army will kill the future, and this is even more so. ”

And to mix the two into one, to the other generation only see convenience, not shortage. With the wolf heart of a traitorous party and a minister, how can it not be measured so viciously? "In a word, the interests are dictated.

Lin Chong, the head of the leopard, easily did not speak early in the major discussions, but he couldn't bear it today. "The big leader, as recorded in ancient books, has been a great traitor and an old man, and he has not been as bad as Beijing. It flatters the lord of the people, and exerts the power of the four seas and nine states to serve the emperor, and money and food are its lifeblood. However, the goods and wealth produced by heaven and earth are numbered at the end of the year, and if they are not in the people, they are in the public house, and the treacherous peace can lead to the abundance of the treasury, and not take the fat and ointment of the people indiscriminately? "The whole cake is so big, the court bureaucrats eat more bites, and the common people have one less. It's okay to be hungry, as long as you can eat it, the people will not rise up. However, the policy of Cai Jing and Yang Jian, and the disturbance of flowers and stones by Zhu Mian in Jiangnan, were to make them eat and support themselves, and let thousands of people starve to death. How could the people really be tied to death?

"Lu Qian is not an idiot, he knows the sinister nature of the world. In Cai Jing and Yang Jian, there is no need to guess at the worst end, and they know what choice they will make. I deeply believe Mr. Zong's words. ”

Lu Qian's gaze swept over everyone present, and a solemn feeling arose. Until his eyes swept over Li Tieniu's face, uncovered the old face of the Flying Tiger, and saw a flower-like Zhang Qing looking at him with big eyes like water.

Lu Qian's momentum is nurturing little by little. It was only necessary to say a deafening strategy, which would not only reassure the Manichaean allies, but also raise the morale of the leaders of Liangshanbo.

"Brother, it's the other way around!" At this moment, the black whirlwind suddenly screamed.

……

The last paragraph was written in pain, and it took almost two hours to make up a paragraph that was still well-spoken and had a clear meaning.
