Section 22 Gathering (2)

Sakhalian snorted and was speechless, the change in Fuzhou was the hidden pain of the old Khan, and the involvement was very large, and the Baylors generally did not dare to mention it in front of him, because it involved the two Hanchens that the old Khan trusted the most - Li Yongfang and Liu Xingzuo, as well as the Liaoren group that gradually surfaced, Li Yongfang was a member of the Li clan in Tieling, and the old Khan was the family of Li Chengliang, the general soldier of Liaodong when he was young, and the two had dealings, the old Khan attacked the Ming Realm after the victory of Sarhu, and Li Yongfang, who was a guerrilla in Fushun at the time, surrendered the city, and the old Khan was very happy that this old acquaintance came to surrender, Marry the daughter of the old seven abatai to him, so Li Yongfang got the title of 'Fushun forehead', and was later promoted to the third-class general soldier by the old Khan, ranked one of the eight capital halls, ranked first among the Han officials, in charge of the affairs of the Han people of the Jin State, and entrusted the espionage intelligence of the Ming State and the appeasement of the officials, Li Yongfang was cautious and decent and trusted by the old Khan, and Li Yongfang was indeed capable, he recruited the guerrilla Sun Degong, the governor of Liaodong of the Ming State, Wang Huazhen, so that the Jin army won the city of Guangning without a fight, which is a miracle feat.

Liu Xingzuo's qualifications in the Jin State are older, Wanli thirty-four years of young Liu Xingzuo to escape the persecution of the Ming officials, that is, from the original hometown to the old Khan, Liu Xingzuo is handsome, skilled in arching and horses, and has a lot of reading and talented, governing the place, raising money and food are very effective, the old Khan regards him as his own son and nephew to take care of him, once untied his own coat and gifted, Liu Xingzuo's official position has also been continuously improved, less than 30 years to become a deputy general, the status of the Han officials is second only to Li Yongfang and the Sinicized Zhushen Tong Yang, appointed to take charge of the richest Jin country, The military situation is also the most complicated in the southern four guards - the affairs of the four states of Jin, Fu, Hai, and Gai.

However, it was these two people in the Fuzhou change that made the old Khan disgraced, at the beginning of the eighth year of the Mandate of Heaven, the old Khan in order to deal with Mao Wenlong's continuous sea raids, ordered the withdrawal of the people off the coast of Jinzhou to retreat to Fuzhou, at this time Fuzhou Bei Wang Bing reported Liu Xingzuo to the Ming Kingdom, it seems that the people of the four states defected to Mao Wenlong, the old Khan received Wang Bing's denunciation letter and was shocked, and immediately ordered Dai Shan and Azig to lead troops to Fuzhou, but Li Yongfang, who has always been timid and afraid of things, did not know what was going on, and his brain was hot to dissuade him, saying that the matter of Fuzhou was not clear and could not be rushed to send troops, If the soldiers arrived in Fuzhou but were fine, wouldn't it be a shame, of course the old Khan would not listen to his nonsense, and when things were clarified, the people would probably run out. As soon as Daishan and Azig arrived, the truth was immediately revealed, Fuzhou has gathered tens of thousands of men in four states, everyone dragged their families to pack up, and the rice and noodles in the city were all made into dry food, and the image of the escape was revealed, and the next thing was to kill people, Daishan and Azig two butchers killed 20,000 men in Fuzhou, and their children were plundered into slavery, and the people of Yongning (Jinzhou) and Gaizhou rushed to the east, Liu Xingzuo's brother Liu Xingren was also beheaded, and Liu Xingzuo himself and Li Yongfang's eldest son Yingge wore a flail into Liaoyang. This massacre emptied the four guards of the land of the four guards in the south, and the Jin country abandoned the land of more than 400 miles along the coast without defending.

The reaction caused by the change in Fuzhou was violent, the already fragile relationship between the Zhushen officials of the Jin State and the Han officials was tense all of a sudden, Li Yongfang and Liu Xingzuo can be regarded as the leaders of the Han officials, behind them is a huge Liao group, how to deal with them has become a big problem, the old Khan did not dare to attack them in the end, Liu Xingzuo was demoted to a general and lived idle, Yingge was driven home to reflect, for Li Yongfang, the old man, the old Khan couldn't help but scold, accusing him of not repenting and his heart to the Ming Kingdom, and then he was dismissed from the post of chief soldier, Go home and take care of your son.

How can the change in Fuzhou be over, the whistleblower Wang Bing became an unlucky bastard, and was beheaded for falsely accusing Shangguan - in fact, he should have died a long time ago, this guy and Yongning Beiyu Li Diankui actually lost their minds and accused Dadutang Urgudai of accepting their bribes, the eldest concubine Abahai and Dabeile Daishan naturally would not let go of this opportunity to hit the important henchmen of the four Beile, Lao Khan personally interrogated about the case, and the result was that Urgudai was dismissed from the post of Dadutang and the general soldier, demoted to a small Beiyu, and Urgudai died in a fit of anger, The four Baylors who were involved in the case and Zierharang, Dege, Yue Tuo and other little Baylors were punished with silver, and the four Baylors were also fined two Niu Lu, and the bold Wang Bing was therefore involved in the power struggle of Houjin and offended so many Baylors, since the old Khan let Liu Xingzuo and others go, he could only kill him.

Another unlucky guy is Tong Yangxing, this person is a businessman from Kaiyuan, has a good character, and is honest in doing things, but his ability is poor, and Li Yongfang and Liu Xingzuo can't be compared at all, people have taken off their skin in a few years, but the Han affairs in Liaodong are in a mess, and he himself is depressed, Lao Khan finally made up his mind in the face of the crisis in Liaodong, and reinstated Li Yongfang and Liu Xingzuo, Li Yongfang returned to the Ming State with spy affairs, and Liu Xingzuo assisted Tong Yangxing to handle Han affairs affairs.

Dahai by the door shouted: "Don't shout, the food is here, it smells like meat." The people present felt hungry at this time, Aha came in and set up the meal, Sakhalian waved his hand to let everyone go to the kang, Sakhalian, Kurtang, Dahai and Liu Xingzuo sat cross-legged on the kang unceremoniously, Li Yu and Yingge are juniors, they can only sit down on the edge of the kang, the meal is good, boiled pork in white water, plus a few side dishes, the venison brought by Li Yu is also roasted and cut a large plate and served up, Sakhalian also got a small jar of wine for everyone to drink quietly, Houjin is making a grain shortage, prohibiting the use of grain to make wine, it is not easy to drink wine, Kurtan was very excited to see the wine.

As soon as the wine was drunk, the tense atmosphere just now also eased, Liu Xingzuo seemed to be very interested in Li Yu, he should squeeze Dahai aside, sit next to Li Yu, and chat with Li Yu while eating and drinking, Li Yu was originally very restrained, but with Kurtang and Liu Xingzuo around him, he slowly let go, this group of people except for Yingge, the relationship between the others seems to be extraordinary, Sakhalian and Liu Xingzuo, who were arguing just now, are now as good as brothers, Liu Xingzuo has a few glasses of wine, and complains that Sakhalian does not take good care of his little brother, It has been three or four months since the end of last year, and Erlu has not been designated as a flag or divided into land, and there is no one to take care of his hard life.

Sakhalian said with a wry smile, he didn't know what was going on, Abatai had never given up, and carefully mentioned that he wanted to leave Li Yu a few times, but the old Khan gave him back, and said that in the future, which flag Eru will go to, what errand to send, and what daughter-in-law to marry will have to be decided by his old man, no one can figure out what the old Khan wants, Liu Xingzuo was startled when he heard it, Elu was a little guard without an official position, and the old Khan actually took care of him, which is also too strange, don't be an old mistake again, I want to accept another godson, he voted to the old Khan at the beginning, Old Khan also treated him like this, to be honest, Old Khan was really good to him Liu Xingzuo.

Dahai shook his head, if the old Khan doesn't settle the matter, Erlu will suffer, a nineteen-year-old young man, he is still a poor man, and he doesn't know when he will have a home. Li Yu said that he didn't dare to start a family, the daughters married here were all twelve or thirteen years old, he didn't dare to do anything to such a young girl, Li Yu felt that he had to find a wife at least sixteen years old, and everyone was amused when they heard it.

At this time, the two children did not know when they slipped in, looking at the meat on the table and wanting to eat but not daring to come, Sakhalian smiled and beckoned: "Adali, Luckdhun, you come to Amma." "These two children are his sons.

Ten-year-old Adali immediately climbed on the hot kang and reached out to grab the meat to eat, the younger Lekhdehun was held by Li Yu on his lap and helped him eat the meat, seeing the two children grabbing meat to eat, Sakhalian sighed and stopped talking, and the others stopped eating chopsticks, just watched the children eat in large gulps, and after a while, Sakhalian asked Aha to take the child out, and Li Yu quickly grabbed a large piece of meat and stuffed it into Lekdehun's hand.

The meal was almost finished, and Li Yu finally had the courage to tell Sakhalian the truth about his troubles during this time, and Li Yu said bitterly: "Wu Nag was ferocious on Juehua Island, leading the Mongolian battalion to kill wantonly, even children and women were not spared, and people had to take off their clothes when they were killed, why didn't this kind of beast Khan kill him, and why did the Great Khan burn the grain of the right guard?" That's food that can be eaten, the Mongolians came with their families, they didn't want to fight with us, they just wanted a bite of food, how many people could live with that food, they are also people! They are all living beings, but we want to kill them, so how are we like beasts? ”

Kuer listened and hurriedly kicked Li Yu and motioned him to shut up, but Liu Xingzuo's eyes lit up when he looked at Li Yu, Sakhalian's face changed, and he said after a while: "I tell you why the Great Khan burns grain, those grains must be burned, otherwise more people will die, those Mongols who reach out for food may only want to live and live, and they don't plan to fight us, but they have their Taiji and Nuoyan behind them, these people will not go hungry, they want to kill our people, and use our heads to ask for rewards from the Ming Kingdom, We gave the grain to the poor people on the front foot, and the Mongolian Taiji and Noyan people would force the people to hand over the grain with knives on the back foot, and then eat the grain we gave us to beat us, and more people died in the battle. Erlu, sooner or later you will lead the troops to fight, you must know that Ci is not in charge of the army, and being a good person on the battlefield will kill many people. ”

Sakhalian paused for a moment, and then said solemnly: "No one is born a beast, and the people you see who kill women and children, maybe they are a kind people when they put down their butcher knives, and when they kill people, they are not a life in front of them, but a piece of clothing that can save their children from freezing to death, can you stop him from killing people?" I tell you that the root of killing lies in poverty and hatred, the north is a cold and bitter land, food, clothing and survival are problems, a snowstorm and drought can completely destroy a tribe, who wants to let their people live, they have to learn to rob, first rob the surrounding tribes, and when they are strong, they will rob the richer Han people in the south, and in order to go south to loot, since ancient times, between the nomadic tribes of the steppe and our tribes in the mountains and forests, there is continuous killing, and they will not stop killing and plundering without distinguishing between the winners and losers. Once one of the nomadic tribes and us is conquered by the other, the victor will inevitably be strong, and will immediately go south to kill and plunder the Han people in the south, and the Han people in the south must also continue to attack the grassland tribes and fishing and hunting tribes in the north in order to keep their population and property, for example, we once established the Jin Dynasty, we first exterminated the Khitan people in the steppe and punished their tribes, and then immediately went south to attack the Han people in the south, and after occupying the Central Plains of the Great Song Dynasty, they also continued to attack and weaken the tribes in the north. During the reign of Emperor Shizong and Emperor Zhangzong, the nomadic tribes of the steppe implemented a policy of reducing the number of horses, and every few years they sent troops into the steppe to kill adult Tatar males to eliminate hidden dangers, and the Tatars established Mongolia after they became stronger, and they also wantonly killed us, and the Jurchens who entered the customs were almost wiped out. The Han people in the south are the same, the tribes in the north implement divide and rule, help the weak and suppress the strong, cut off the strong branches, the Ming State did this, Chenghua three years of the Battle of Dinghai, the Ming State contacted North Korea to wash my Jianzhou Sanwei, killed my ancestor Jianzhou Left Guard Commander Dong Shan and Jianzhou Wei Commander Li Manzhu, Jianzhou Right Guard Commander Fan Cha avoided the mountain to escape this catastrophe, but later was also killed, Sanwei male was beheaded nearly 2,000 levels, after this battle Jianzhou Sanwei almost no male, more than 100 years can not afford to fall, later Li Chengliang actually did this, He was not wrong to fight Wang Gao and Wang Tai who rebelled in Gule Village, but there was no need to kill all the people in Gule Village, and the massacre of Gule Village actually wiped out the Jianzhou Right Guard, which had just become stronger. There is no need to talk about the rights and wrongs of these things, but the hatred continues to grow. To solve this problem, we must first solve the problem of poverty, and it is only possible to stop this kind of killing if all parties have a good life, but no one has been able to come up with a way from ancient times to the present, so you don't have to worry about it, you will get used to it later, all we can do is reduce the killing, and sometimes even have to kill to stop the killing. ”

Li Yu was silent, Sakhalian was right, everything comes from poverty and hatred, but who has the ability to solve this? Li Yu felt that he definitely didn't have this ability, maybe he was thinking too much, how could things in the world be so simple, let's take one step at a time.

At this time, there was a shout outside, and someone was shouting, Lord Belle, someone was fighting. Then came the howls of killing pigs and the sound of stumbling footsteps.

Li Yu rushed out first with an arrow step on the handle of the knife, Sakhalian and the others then also walked out of the door, and in the courtyard Sakhalian's guards and Aha were in a circle to watch the excitement, Li Yu separated everyone and saw that it was actually Meng Ke who was riding on a man about thirty years old and punching him, and the guy on the ground howled and said hard: "Meng Ke, if you have the ability, you will kill me, I am not afraid of you." ”

Li Yu threw Meng Ke aside and asked him what was going on, Meng Ke angrily pointed at the beaten man and said: "This guy was caught by me, he didn't fight enough this time, and he will beat him next time I see him." ”

The man covered his face and shouted: "You are cheating, I would rather I be a scholar than I will not be like you." When he saw Sakhalian coming, he immediately knelt down and cried: "Lord Belle, the slave is wronged, you have to be the master of the slave." ”

Sakhalian ignored him and asked the people around him what was going on, and the guards next to him made it clear as soon as he talked about things, Meng Ke had nothing to do after eating in the kitchen, and there happened to be an Aha on Sakhalian's house who had been with him, and the two immediately gambled as soon as they met, and made an appointment with a few gambling guards in the house, Aha got together and threw away the dice, this Ning Wan I am Sakhalian's clothed minion, I have read a lot of books, and I am very valued by Sakhalian, and I am a little powerful in Baylor House, and I usually love to gamble a few handfuls, known as the invincible hand of the red flag of gambling, He heard that Meng Ke, a famous gambler in Shenyang City, came to the house, and naturally wanted to fight with Meng Ke, but this gamble was in trouble, Ning finished my gambling skills to bully the honest Zhu Shen and Aha can also, and Meng Ke from the thief's den and the Ming army camp mixed out of the veteran can not be compared, Meng Ke looked at him unpleasantly, let go of others, and won his money, Ning finished a few rounds of my loss red eyes, he knew that Meng Ke's hands and feet were not clean but could not grasp the handle, simply made a thousand himself, but he was caught by Meng Ke as soon as he made a move, and the two immediately turned their faces, first moved their mouths to scold each other and then moved their hands and feet, several other gamblers finally knew the reason for their old losses, and took the opportunity to fan the flames, so the two of them fought, scholar Ning Wan I am of course not the opponent of the horse thief Meng Ke, was dragged to the yard by Meng Ke and beaten, the guards, Ah Ha all came out to see the excitement, just don't help Ning Wan me - Ning Wan I usually rely on my own reading, do not put other people in my eyes, and win everyone's money, watching him beaten, everyone is gloating.

Sakhalian understood what was going on, and pointed at Ning Wan and scolded: "You slave, how many times have I taught you not to gamble anymore, but you don't change your thief nature, you deserve to be beaten repeatedly." ”

Kuer and Dahai also scolded Ning Wan me, scolding him for being a well-dressed scum and insulting Sven, and should be punished heavily, Kuer scolded Ning Wan me, and counted Sakhalian, this kind of slave with a bad character, it is even worse to read the book, if you don't cut off this guy early, you will suffer from it in the future, if you can't do it, send him to the Wenguan, I will help you get rid of him.

The other guards and Aha saw that the wind was favorable, and they also followed to expose Ning Wan's bad deeds, such as thinking that he was very talented and learning, wanting to be promoted and make a fortune every day, complaining that the master did not give him an official job, and did not do his best for the master, envying the slaves who made a career in other flags, hooking up with the red flag slave Fan Wencheng, writing to Sibeile, dreaming of changing jobs one day, etc., the more I listened, the more frightened I became, and I collapsed on the ground in fright.

Everyone is scolding Ning Wan, but Meng Ke doesn't have a, but Li Yu's face is red, he knows the reason, it's not that Meng Ke is not wrong, but Meng Ke's reputation is too bad, and everyone in Shenyang City knows that his Li Yu's Aha is not a good person, so everyone takes it for granted that Meng Ke does something bad, just like Ning Wan, who has read a book, I shouldn't do bad things, today's incident is just a fight between two Aha people, not a big deal, everyone is too lazy to say Meng Ke.

When this was over, it was late, and everyone dispersed, and Li Yu sent the two masters, Kurtang and Dahai, home. On the way, Li Yu couldn't help but scolded Meng Ke, Meng Ke was very unconvinced, he felt that Ning Wan I didn't have the ability to dare to be a thousand people, and I deserved to be beaten.

Kur is entangled but supports Meng Ke, people like Ning Wan and Fan Wencheng of the Wenguan are unwilling to do practical things, they just want to be officials, and they keep saying that they want to help Dajin achieve a great cause, this kind of person is the most shameless, it seems that Han people who have read books have this problem, this kind of person should be cleaned up fiercely, Meng Ke did a good job today.

Dahai nodded again and again after hearing this, and told Li Yu that this kind of person seems to be ambitious, worried about the world, and full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but they are unscrupulous when they do bad things, and they can also tell high-sounding reasons for doing bad things, so let Li Yu be careful of this kind of person in the future.

Early the next morning, Li Yu took Meng Ke to the Wenguan to say goodbye to everyone, and the Bakshi and the guards of the Wenguan also congratulated Li Yu on getting a good errand, Kurtang and Dahai had finished saying what they should have said yesterday, and immediately told him to get out, Xifu and Sony's uncle and nephew pulled Li Yu aside and told him, and squeezed out a few tears, and the Han officials were glad that the guy who robbed them of their jobs was finally gone, and Fan Wencheng also borrowed some food from Li Yu pitifully - it was not the first time he had done this, but he never planned to pay it back.

Shenyang City was originally the acropolis of Shenyang Zhongwei of the Ming Kingdom, the city is not big, from the big yamen in the city to the Great Khan's dormitory in the North Urn City can not go far, this road Li Yu is very familiar, he ran errands and sent letters to the Wenguan did not walk less, guarding the urn city is the flag soldiers of the two yellow flags, they are acquaintances to greet each other, glanced at the big yamen line held by Li Yu, and asked him to go directly to the duty room to find the minister in charge of the guard, Yasun.

Yasun is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a round face that looks white and clean, he looks quite rich, his clothes are neatly packed, there is not a single patch on it, and he also has a kind face when he speaks, and he looks like a shrewd and capable person. As soon as he finished reading the words of the Great Yamen, he immediately pulled Li Yu to sit down, and welcomed Li Yu to him on an errand with a smile on his face, and said that he was the most fair and decent person, and that no one who came to him on an errand did not say that he was good, and a young and promising person like Li Yu had found the right place to come to him.

Yasun's words are too much, and Li Yu got up several times to ask how to send him on an errand, but Yasun said that he was not in a hurry, but he bragged about how his errand here was good, and how he had a future with his own mix. After talking nonsense for a while, Yasun saw that Li Yu was a little impatient, so he sent a messenger to let Li Yu be on duty at night, and the next day a round was only in charge of the second half of the night, Yasun said seriously: "It's not that the uncle is difficult for you, you are young and have not started a family, only you are the most suitable for this errand, and you still have to respond during the day, you can go home and sleep if you have nothing to do, you don't care about the affairs in the palace, you only care about the guards outside the palace, so that you will be much easier." He thought for a while and then said: "There are also the children of the noble families of the banners on duty outside the palace, these boys rely on the power and power of the family to be unruly, you can also help me watch them." ”

Li Yu had no opinion, and left as soon as he agreed, Yasun looked at Li Yu's back and couldn't help scolding: "The soil buns from the mountains are not clever at all, and Lao Tzu has been talking for a long time." ”

Of course, Li Yu couldn't hear Yasun scolding him, and not long after he walked out of the duty room, someone called out to him, and when he turned around, he saw that he was happy, and seven or eight little guys such as Aobai, Zhun Ta, and Kubilong were running towards him.
