Zhang He and Deng Mao met with Jiang Sheng, and reported in detail the training results during this period and the social situation along the way. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Now I'm going to give you another task." Jiang Sheng looked at Zhang He and Deng Mao.

"Please give orders to the lord and ensure that the task is completed!"

"Thirty miles east of Linji, there is a mountainside place that can build a military camp that can accommodate 5,000 people, I order you to lead the army into the mountain, open up open space, and build a semi-permanent military camp, and our military base in Le'an will be here in the future." Jiang Sheng pointed to the map and said.

"Righteous thinking is dull, and for the design of a large military camp, it is really worthy of the trust of the lord." Zhang He spoke very directly.

"Haha, don't worry about this, I have already drawn the drawings, and your task now is to clean up the attachments on the ground according to the camp four solstices marked in the drawings for the next day."

"Subordinate Order!" Zhang He and Deng Mao listened to the order.

"By the way, there are still many remnants of yellow turbans here, you should be more vigilant. As for the equipment of the cavalry, I have already begun to prepare it, and I believe that it will be equipped with your troops in the near future. ”

"Thank you, Lord! Subordinates retire! After Zhang He took over the basic drawings, he bid farewell to Jiang Sheng, went to Yang Feng to receive supplies, and then led the cavalry with Deng Mao to the target position.

At both ends of the table, Zhang Hun's head was plastered with lime, and he was being led around by the sergeant, and Luoyang also got the news.

"Jiang Sheng, you deceive me too much!" Zhang Rang was so angry that he threw the dishes and chopsticks, and a house slave who didn't have long eyes was broken by the porcelain bowl thrown by Zhang Rang.

Zhang Rang didn't expect Jiang Sheng to inch in, this was simply on his head Zhang Rang, it was too much, he was going to see the emperor.

"The old slave knocks on the emperor!" Zhang Rang searched for a long time, and finally found Emperor Ling in the queen's bedroom.

"Well, no courtesy!" Emperor Ling was playing chess with Liu Qian, the princess of Wannian, when he saw Zhang Rang coming to worship, he turned his head to look at it, and then his eyes returned to the chess game.

"Does the emperor have any news that Le'an is too protective of Jiang Sheng?" Zhang Rang asked tentatively.

When Liu Qian heard the name "Jiang Sheng", her heart moved, and she waited for Zhang Rang's next words.

"Aiqing, isn't Jiang Sheng already in office?"

"Jiang Sheng has indeed taken up his post, but what he has done seems to have failed the emperor." Zhang said.

Is what Mr. Zhang said true? Jiang, ah, Jiang is too loyal, how can he live up to the emperor's grace? Liu Qian couldn't listen to Zhang Rang saying bad things about Jiang Sheng, so she interjected.

"Qian'er, national affairs, don't intervene!" Although Emperor Ling favored the eldest princess, it was an iron rule that women were not allowed to interfere in politics.

"Aiqing, let's go to the imperial study to talk in detail!" Emperor Ling got up and left.

Liu Qian saw Emperor Ling leaving with Zhang Rang, and was anxious, it seemed that Jiang Sheng had offended Zhang Rang somewhere, which made Zhang Rang play right and wrong in front of Emperor Ling.

She really wanted to help Jiang Sheng, but the rules in the palace could not be abolished, so she was so anxious that she was restless.

"Qian'er, the affairs of the court have their own rules, and it is useless for you to be in a hurry. If Jiang Sheng is indeed a piece of material, I'm afraid this thing will not be difficult for him, so you don't have to worry about it. "Although Empress Lingsi has always had a prejudice against Jiang Sheng, Emperor Ling and the eldest princess Liu Qian both have a good impression of Jiang Sheng, so she has no choice but to follow them.

In the imperial study, Emperor Ling asked Zhang Rang: "You said that Jiang Sheng lived up to the emperor's grace, what is the reason?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the old slave has heard a lot that there is still a Yellow Turban Thief Party in Le'an County, and Jiang Sheng not only does not suppress the thief, but also has communication with the Yellow Turban Thief."

"Really?" The Spirit Emperor couldn't believe it.

"The old slave has also heard of it, but everything can't come out of nowhere, I'd rather believe it than believe it, if it's true, it will definitely be a disaster. Your Majesty, you have to guard against it! ”

"Well, it's just empty talk, but don't wronged good people."

"Your Majesty, if this matter is true or false, you only need to send someone to secretly investigate."

"Who do you think is in charge?"

"Tingwei Zuoping Zhao Bo is available."

Tingwei Zuoping is an official name, and he is specially responsible for the case of the imperial trial, and the official is not big, but no one dares to offend.

That Zhao Bo is from Zhang Rang's disciple, and he can be regarded as a hardcore house slave, naturally only Zhang Rang is the first to look forward, Zhang Rang arranged a few jobs for him, that is, to get rid of Jiang Sheng, but Jiang Sheng thought that he had the handle of Zhang Rang, and he didn't expect Zhang Rang to attack him.

Emperor Ling thought about it, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he said: "Well, Jiang Sheng is recommended by you, since you report this matter to me, you will not show favoritism, so according to your proposal, let Zhao Bo investigate this matter." ”

"The emperor is wise, the old slave will arrange it!" Zhang Rang's heart was overjoyed, it can be seen from Emperor Ling's attitude towards Jiang Sheng's case of fornicating with the Yellow Turban that Jiang Sheng is not Emperor Ling's secret envoy, causing him Zhang Rang to worry for many days, now Jiang Sheng's identity is clear, he Zhang Rang is proud, hum, Jiang Sheng, how long do I see you still beautiful?

Although Emperor Ling had a good impression of Jiang Sheng, it involved matters that endangered the imperial court, and Emperor Ling already favored Zhang Rang, so Emperor Ling still took a cautious attitude towards the matter proposed by Zhang Rang.

If Jiang Sheng really fornicated with the Yellow Turban, then there was no need to talk about other things, even if Liu Qian was interested in Jiang Sheng, Emperor Ling would never let him go; If this matter is groundless, it just shows that Emperor Ling did not look at the wrong person, then things will come to fruition in the future.

On February 21, Zhao Bo secretly entered the territory of Le'an County with four Ouchi masters. According to Zhang Rang's instructions, they will only secretly fabricate evidence, but will not investigate it openly, as for how to clean up Jiang Sheng, that is Zhang Rang's job after Zhao Bo returns to Beijing.

Le'an County is rich in salt, Zhang Hun has occupied nearly seventy percent of the salt farms since he joined Le'an, the salt produced by these salt farms are traded by Zhang Hun privately, not within the scope of salt tax payment, Le'an County paid only one-twelfth of the tax profits to the imperial court, most of them are Zhang Hun and his people fill their pockets, under the leadership of Zhang Hun, the county officials are no exception.

After Zhang Hun was beheaded by the public trial, Jiang Sheng, the new official's second fire, was to get back the salt tax and the occupied salt farm. Xiahoulan, as the official in charge of civil affairs in Le'an County, is his duty.

Since the beginning of the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the right to produce and operate the salt industry is owned by the imperial court, the so-called "salt and iron official camp", salt is indispensable for human life, so the profit is considerable, the purpose of the official camp is to ensure the financial revenue, because of the large profits, many rich and powerful people would rather pay heavy taxes to fight for the right to operate the salt industry.

Since Zhang Hun, most of the salt farms in Le'an County have been privately developed, and they are not in the list of salt farms registered in Shaofu, so they do not pay taxes at all, but into his Zhang Hun's pocket, after Zhang Hun was killed, the person in charge of the salt works who originally worked for Zhang Hun took the opportunity to master these salt farms and still do business in private salt.

The two thousand tax guards who originally belonged to Zhang Hun were dismissed by Jiang Sheng, they were originally raised by Zhang Hun, and they couldn't stay after Zhang Hun fell, so they were disbanded directly.
