Although Dong Ce roughly knew how Zhong Xiaoshi and the others got out from the letter, he didn't expect that there would be some things in between, but this also solved Dong Ce's doubts. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhong Xiaoshi and the others are just authentic village names, even if they are shrewd, they will not learn all at once to the point where the organs are exhausted.

Help them use the people's public opinion to resolve the crisis, and sure enough, there is someone else! It's just that Dong Ce didn't expect that it would be Cao Luorong's girl.

This girl is indeed not simple, it can be said that she belongs to the same type of person as herself, so Dong Ce hates it!

If it was changed to Dong Ce, after fighting with the bandits outside Zhongli's mansion, he directly handed over the goods to the disciples of Jiuliutang and asked them to find a merchant to escort them, and the people in the hall immediately mixed into the people and disappeared, at that time, it would be difficult for Yuan Guangping to investigate, but this woman proposed that they insist on escorting them to Beijing, obviously, they wanted to use Zhong Xiaoshi to protect themselves and arrive in the capital!

Although in this way, they will also become Yuan Guangping's target, but it is better than no protection! It's really too peaceful to come to the capital, and if the two flower-like women don't make themselves dirtier than beggars, they won't be able to reach it safely on this way.

But can they accept it? I thought that men's clothing would be fine, but I don't know that some people are just like this!

It can be seen from this how bold the two women are, but Dong Ce knows very well that Cao Luorong has no choice, because from Meng Feng's letter, he has already learned about the situation in Huzhou, and it is likely that Cao An has also been implicated, so Cao Luorong wants to go to Beijing to sue the emperor.

"If it weren't for the help of Zhuang Liangxiu and Jiangjia Village, we wouldn't have been able to escape the pursuit of the government at all, and we would have even affected the sect leader, it was the subordinates who were reckless, and asked the sect master to punish us!" Zhong Xiaoshi had already stood up as he spoke, bowed down and clenched his fists.

Dong Ce waved his hand to sit him down, and said with a smile: "Forget it in the past, pay attention in the future, but Zhuang Liangxiu can be so clear about the deployment of the bandits, it seems that he is also a person with a heart!" ”

"Does the sect leader suspect him......" Zhong Xiaoshi stopped talking, thought about it, and said, "Then do you want to let them go back?" ”

Dong Ce shook his head and said: "No need, Zhuang Liangxiu is a smart person, it can be of some use to keep it, as for Jiangjia Village, how many people have come to them?" ”

"There are more than 60 people in Jiangjia Village, but ...... Xiaoyi made his own decisions and preached everywhere along the road, and as a result, he collected a lot, and now there are more than 120 people. Zhong Xiaoshi replied.

"So much! Are they all strong men? Dong Ce frowned.

"yes." Zhong Xiaoshi nodded a little embarrassed, in fact, this thing was not made by him at all, it was all Zhong Xiaoyi who preached the benefits of joining Yanjiao, and encouraged the people of Jiangjia Village to defect to the sect leader, and the people who made it were all moved by the high treatment of Yanjiao, and because they killed soldiers like slaughtering dogs, many hot-blooded young people dropped their hoes and wanted to follow them.

But this somewhat rebellious, Dong Ce immediately asked Zhong Xiaoshi to turn around and warn Zhong Xiaoyi, and told him that if he wanted to recruit disciples, then simply come to the Xuezi Temple to do things, this is the right way to join the Yanjiao!

"These things, not only to make it clear to the deputy hall master, but also to let every disciple of the hall know, as for those people in Jiangjia Village, I am afraid that most of them are here for the sake of happiness, and it is impossible to summarize them all, you have to discuss more with the hall master Zhang when you go back, and the clever ones are assigned to the Tianmu Hall for cultivation, and the diligent arrangements are made to go to the Jiuliu Hall, and those who can endure hardships and withstand training will be summarized in your hall."

"But isn't the hall limited to fifty people!" Zhong Xiaoshi wondered.

"It's just a caravan limit, not a hall, how much I train, that's my business." This is not Dong Ce's exploitation, in these years, the guards are indeed raised casually, as long as you can afford it, no one will say anything, of course, if you are equipped with a large number of weapons, the nature will be different in an instant!

But in some remote areas, any small scholar clan can raise thousands of private soldiers, not that the court does not stop it, but it does not stop it, first, the emperor is far away, and secondly, the power in remote areas is intertwined, and there are often riots, plus the centralization of power is not heavy in these years, what can you do with others.

And Dong Ce is just training people, and he is not equipped with weapons, who cares.

Zhong Xiaoshi didn't expect the sect leader to really accept these people, he also thought that the sect leader would arrange for them to do other things, such as the construction of the academy, and the horse farm he had just heard about, all of which needed manpower, but the sect leader obviously did not let them do this, but really collected disciples, although it could strengthen the strength of the sect, but Zhong Xiaoshi faintly felt that something was wrong, but as for what was wrong, he couldn't think of a reason.

Dong Ce looked at Zhong Xiaoshi's thoughtful expression, as if he guessed what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "The forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, is Xiaoshi worried that someone will try to misbehave, or, don't do practical things." ”

When Zhong Xiaoshi heard this, he suddenly realized, and immediately nodded and said: "Yes, the subordinates do feel this way, and Cao Niangzi also said that let the subordinates be careful of Zhuang Liangxiu, but why should they be careful, the subordinates don't know." ”

Dong Ce nodded and said: "It's normal for you not to know, because Zhuang Liangxiu is a smart person, if he comes in, the threat to your status is actually very great, this person relies on a few words, after all, he turned the danger into a disaster, and in turn gained your trust, which shows his demagogic ability, but you don't have to worry about anything, unless you don't want to do it yourself, your position will not change!" ”

The implication is that you haven't grown up in your life!

But this is the fact, at present, there are only three masters of Yanjiao, the sect master, the garden master, and the hall master, if you want to be promoted from the hall master to the garden master, in addition to managing the hall entrance, you also need to be good at management, and have a good relationship with the business, these are not Zhong Xiaoshi's possession.

However, Zhong Xiaoshi's status can still rise, such as Kong Lican, who is now in charge of twelve branches, and the hall master of this Luoyang branch is Lin Chao, so in terms of real power, he is much higher than Zhong Xiaoshi.

But the status is the same, they are all the masters of the main hall, and as the Xingtang blooms everywhere like the Jiuliu Hall, Zhong Xiaoshi's real power will increase little by little.

It's just that Zhong Xiaoshi is not interested in this, he is a person who takes his responsibilities very seriously, eats this mouthful, does this act, and has no crooked thoughts.

There are good things and bad things in this way, because it is difficult for the hall to grow in his hands! This drawback is also reflected in Zhang Dagui, and the same is true of Tianmutang, but Dong Ce is not in a hurry, people will grow, as long as they work hard and learn more, they will all improve, but now they can't rush to develop, Jiuliutang is an exception, because it is hidden from the people, Tianmutang has high requirements, not everyone can enter, and Xingtang will not be able to grow directly, otherwise it is likely to be regarded as a rebellion.

Now the development of Yanjiao has actually reached saturation, and further, it is full of dangers, unless, Yanjiao can get the support of the imperial court!

But this is even more difficult, everyone knows how much the state religion Taiping hates paganism, who dares to offend Taiping Dao to support them, even the Queen Mother does not dare!

But for Dong Ce, it is not difficult, and now that he has some news, as long as the news is verified, then Taiping Dao is not far from death! (To be continued.) )
