The next day, the wind was beautiful, and Chen Zhi was in the city again, but this time it was not so smooth, but halfway through the tour, he met the family of Daijun and recognized him.

Suddenly, there was a burst of onlookers greeting and asking for advice, Chen Zhi simply did not hide it when he saw this, removed his disguise, and talked with everyone.

Because most of the people gathered in the city were scholars, when it came to the later period, it was inevitable that he would talk about the scriptures, so Chen Zhi published another opinion, solved his doubts with others, and finally encouraged him.

When this circle was tossed, it was already sunset, and then I said goodbye to everyone.

When he returned home, he suddenly got a piece of news, but it was someone from the Chen family in Pengcheng who came again, and the leader was Chen Luo, who had a very good relationship with him.

Speaking of Chen Luo, there was also a toss, his people had previously adhered to the order of the old father in the family, and had come to Daijun, but because of the war, he was sent out by Chen Zhi to contact, and later received a series of news, so he simply stayed outside, and finally returned to Pengcheng, and came to Daijun several times before and after, running back and forth.

This time, from afar, Chen Zhi saw that his body had lost a lot of weight.

"Seventh brother, alas, seventh brother, I finally saw you." When Chen Luo saw Chen Zhi, he immediately fell down from the carriage and trotted all the way over, "I came this time, but I got the care of the people along the way, but Jizhou is really dangerous, if it weren't for the martial arts you sent, I'm afraid that our convoy would fall into the homeless, then I would be the big sinner of our Chen family." ”

As soon as Chen Zhi wanted to ask, why he was so guilty, he saw in the distance, the figure that was being helped to dismount, and the already bulging abdomen, couldn't help but freeze in place.

The next moment, a strange connection came from the woman's belly, making Chen Zhi's heart throb, as if the heartstrings were plucked by a small white hand.

Chen Luo said with a smile on the side: "This time I heard that the soldiers in the north were eliminated, so I asked me to escort my sister-in-law over, although there were twists and turns, but fortunately, there were no dangers, and now my sister-in-law has been sent safely, we have to enjoy the happiness, I heard that Brother Seventh Brother you have acted on behalf of the county, and everyone up and down is obedient, then I want to have a good walk here!" ”

Chen Zhi had no intention of listening to this person's talk, but he took a step forward to greet him, and on the opposite side, Yang You's plump face already showed a surprised smile.

That night, the news of the arrival of the county keeper's wife spread all over the streets and alleys, and there was a burst of chickens and dogs, and the next day, all the major families took action, so it was not lively.

In the following days, Dai County also spent time in chaos, first the opening of Tangjia kiln, began to burn, and then the mine was erected, which was already out of the mine, and then there were paper mills to expand production and several distributions.

In this chaos, Duan Piyan, who was Xianbei, was released from house arrest, Yu Liang and Zhang Yang were sent back, and so on, as if they were drops of water in a big river, seemed to be inconspicuous, but they still couldn't escape the attention of newcomers, especially Zhang Jingsheng and others, who sent letters to their families.

As a result, Daijun gradually got on the right track in this lively atmosphere, but the undercurrent under it became more and more turbulent.

Time flies, autumn goes to winter, after the severe cold of Sanjiu, spring is rejuvenated, and the land of Daijun ushers in the arrival of the new year in the appearance of tranquility.

In the spring of the second year of Pingxing, compared with previous years, there seems to be no difference, but for the people in the north, there are too many things happening, and at the same time, after more than half a year of repair and brewing, the forces of all parties have gradually exuded a smell of gunsmoke.

"Envoy, after crossing the creek in front, we will enter the territory of the Dai County, and then we will all be at peace, whether it is those people or the displaced people, they dare not step into the Dai County for half a step!"

On the rugged land, a cavalry squad moved forward without hurrying, led by an old herdsman dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with a long bow on his back, a long knife hanging from his waist, broad shoulders and a strong body, and a powerful appearance, but when he spoke, he tried to keep his voice as low as possible, and said to a person beside him.

This man also rode a horse, and although he was armoured, he still revealed a sense of elegance, especially since he did not wear a helmet, but had an open crown, and his long beard hung down his chest, and he moved with the wind.

Listening to the herdsman's introduction, this person smiled and asked: "We came all the way, only in the land led by the ancestor Jiyin, we can see that the homeless people are low and obedient, and the people avoid it, that is, it is also necessary to have the elite soldiers of the ancestor to suppress and inspect, so as to deter the thief soldiers, but all the soldiers in the past, often relapse into the old ways, how did they get to Daijun, this group of thieves is honest?" ”

The old herdsman said: "I don't know what you know, or that Chen Dai County's hot hand, since more than half a year ago, he has printed many books in Dai County, attracting people from the north to pass on his good name, this ......"

He was still about to speak, but he saw the long-bearded and elegant man shake his head and said: "The book of engraving rubbing, it is really a clever thing, the book is made by this method, and there are many defacements, mistakes, omissions, and ghosts. ”

When the old herdsman heard this, he quickly nodded his head and said something, and then he resigned, looking at the person in front of him, his face full of fear.

Although he lives in a corner, he is actually the eyeliner of the imperial court, in fact, he is well-informed, and he seems to be rough, but he is actually thoughtful, otherwise he would not have been selected as a guide this time.

This old herdsman knows that the envoy named Huan Yi in front of him is now a celebrity in front of the king of Jiangdu, otherwise he would not have gone from almost white in just over a year, relying on the favor of the king and his own accumulated reputation and connections, to become a three-horse captain of the seventh grade.

In a year's time, it is the seventh grade, and the cavalry captain he gets, although he is only asked for by the king of Jiangdu, and he can't really accompany the emperor, but many orders issued in the name of the central government can directly let this Huan Yi go out.

His position in the Jiangdu Wangdu Governor's Mansion is the left master book, and it is also a real power position, and this person is still quite desperate, the old herdsman knows that this Gong Cao master book just got a son this year, named Huan Wen, but he didn't care about it at all, after getting the order, he took people out as soon as possible, and went straight to Dai County!

Such a character, where did the old herdsman dare to offend, and he was a little bit, so he quickly changed his tone and said: "Under the command of Chen Fujun of that generation of counties, it is claimed that there are 12,000 Wuding, all of whom are private soldiers, and there are seven Xianbei tribes to return to Shun, known as Qipin Yicong, all of whom are brave and good at fighting, but where there are people and homeless people who enter Koudai County and are surrounded by Wuding or Qipin Yicong, then there will never be good fruit to eat!" Either half of them are dead, or they are caught, thrown into the mines, and work desperately! It's better to live than to die! ”

"Oh?" Huan Yi narrowed his eyes, "Twelve thousand Wuding? Didn't you say that there were only eight thousand? And the seven virtues of righteousness and the sake of it? Why is it named after Seven Grades? ”

The old herdsman had already prepared, so he said: "Eight thousand martial arts are just known to the outside world, in a few months, the Chen clan has recruited many village warriors, put them in the countryside to garrison, and sometimes change guards, and the big battalions in Nadai County and Dangcheng each maintain four thousand martial arts, it seems that there are only eight thousand, but in fact, there are four thousand, scattered all over the place. As he spoke, he was still observing Huan Yi's expression.

When Huan Yi heard this, he remained silent, nodded and continued to ask: "What about the name of the Seven Grades of Righteousness?" ”

"But after the return of the seven departments last year, there were two leaders who kept his thoughts, and had the intention to rebel again, who knew that Chen Fujun was like a god, and had already arranged manpower, and the people over there moved, and they were arrested, and the main culprit nineteen people were taken to Dai County that night, and the next day they were executed in public, and the head was shown to the public, and then Chen Fujun was angry and Xianbei said that he had no faith, and rebelled, and under the anger, he directly surrounded the seven Xianbei, and finally redivided the seven grades according to the distance and relatives, one product was the highest, and he could enjoy the treatment of the people of Middle Earth, and the seven grades were the lowest, in fact, they were composed of many mine slaves."

"And such a thing? There is no news from these county kings. Huan Yi frowned, savoring the name of the seven grades, but he faintly felt that something was wrong, "This kind of division, you said that there are also mine slaves, could it be the coal mine in Dai County that was circled by Chen Zhi?" ”

The old herdsman said: "Not only that, I heard that the Daojun under the command of Chen Fujun has found a mineral deposit on the bank of the Sanggan River. ”

"Another deposit? On the banks of the Sangan River? Huan Yi's heart moved, "Is it still a coal mine?" ”

The old herdsman shook his head and said: "This little old man is not clear, but I heard that it doesn't seem to be a coal mine, by the way, even the mines in Nadai County, I heard that not only coal, but also iron!" ”

"Iron?" When Huan Yi heard this, his eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, but he immediately retracted, he nodded and said, "Okay, you lead the way first, let's enter Daijun first." ”

The old herdsman immediately said no more and led the way.

In fact, Daijun and Jizhou are also connected by official roads, but because of the long time and the chaos of the current situation, it has long been dilapidated, and there are places occupied by displaced people on the way.

With the guidance of this old herdsman, the group was able to bypass many dangerous places, and now it was the last part of the journey, because according to his people, as long as they entered Daijun, it would be safe.

This person led the way in front, and Huan Yi and more than a dozen other riders followed behind, and Huan Yi was thinking about the mission of this trip.

"The imperial decree of the imperial court has arrived, to give Chen Zhi the title of general, and allow him to open a mansion and build a tooth, but the meaning of the king of the county is to borrow troops from this, and the decisive battle with Shile three months ago, as a result, the soldiers and horses of the king of the county suffered heavy losses, and now if you want to make a comeback, you have to rely on the soldiers and horses of Chen Zhi, in addition, you have to let Chen Zhi give up the single cannon, and divide half of the profits of the mine, these things have to find a way to do it, mainly have to wait for Wang Jun's cooperation, think about internal and external pressure, the king of the county has righteousness, then Chen Zhi is impossible to refuse......"

He was still thinking about it, and suddenly heard the old herdsman in front of him cheering: "It's here, Daijun has arrived!" ”

Huan Yi looked at the sound, his eyes passed through the two big trees, and suddenly he suddenly opened up, and the first thing that caught his eye was a spacious and smooth avenue, which stretched all the way out until the end of the distance!
