"What's going on in Nango?" At the same time, in the temple of Qixian County, Mingyue was also asking Mail Wuxin about the specific situation there. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As the youngest of the four black-clothed people, Mail Wuxin is only nineteen years old, very thin, but he has a pair of extraordinarily clever big eyes, he is nicknamed Skinny Monkey, and he is also as clever as a monkey, and is very sensitive to things around him.

No, Chang'an Jun sent him to Nanxiang to recruit troops, although he didn't get much, it was equivalent to returning empty-handed, but he brought back information that he didn't know before.

"As soon as the minister went to Nanxiang, he felt wrong."

"Although the county officials and the three elders and the elders of Nanxiang all said that the thieves in the mountains were extremely vicious and tyrannical to the people, but what they saw along the way, the people's livelihood did not see much withering, and when they saw our people approaching, they were not much alert. I pretended to beg for water to drink, and I dismissed the county officials and village officials, and asked the locals in one room, and I didn't see how much they hated the bandits......"

"What's more, when the minister mentioned the leader of the bandits in the mountains, some of the country rangers still showed admiration......

You Wuxin learned from those people, cocked his thumb and said: "They all say that Wei Yao is a thief who robs the rich and helps the poor!" ”

"Rogues? Sure enough, there is something strange. ”

Mingyue frowned, he initially thought that the situation in Xixiang and Nanxiang was similar, they were all thieves who plagued the township, and the people were struggling to survive, so he was to blame for saving them. But now it seems that the water thieves in Xixiang are extremely vicious, but although the thieves in Nanxiang are hated by the heroes, they are unexpectedly good among the people.

After the Qin State broke through Anyi, he fled to Taiyuan County with some remnants of the defeated soldiers, and wanted to join the Zhao army. But because he was wanted for murder along the way, he simply hid in the Ershan Mountain, and took a group of people to recruit homeless people and rangers, and gradually gained momentum, and now the number is nearly 1,000, occupying the entire Zhener Mountain for dozens of miles. I have heard that the most common thing they do is not to plunder the people, but to extort the families of the nobles of Nanxiang, empty their granaries, and bring the enslaved concubines back to the mountains......"

Mingyue smiled: "In this way, this is actually a righteous thief like Zhuang Ji?" ”

Zhuang Ji was a hundred soldiers in the east of Chu when he was King Huai of Chu, but later because he could not bear the pressure of ordinary soldiers by his superiors, he rebelled from the Chu army and became a thief in the eastern part of Chu State. This person is no longer the same as the thief who roamed the countryside in the Spring and Autumn Period, but the tyrannical doctor did not have a clear purpose, his goal was obvious - he wanted to lead the Dongdi soldiers, mainly the Yue people, to destroy the Chu State feudal monarch who treated them cruelly, and even overthrow the rule of the King of Chu in the East!

Before and after the Battle of Chuisha, the state of Chu was defeated in the north, Tang Yu died in battle, Zhuang Ji took the opportunity to cause trouble, he was in trouble in the state of Chu for many years, there were tens of thousands of deaths, and even once caused the state of Chu to lose control of the east, and the officials of the state of Chu could not prohibit it.

It was not until after the death of King Huai of Chu that Zhuang Ji's fellow clan, that is, Zhuang Xin, who lobbied King Zhao Huiwen with a sword, was ordered by the King of Chu to find him, and after several persuasions, Zhuang Ji put down his hostile posture with the Chu State and agreed to accept the appeasement, and since then he has become a powerful general of the Chu State and the main force sent by the King of Chu to conquer the barbarians.

As for his later expedition to the west, that is later, in this world, only Mingyue knows, Zhuang Ji is actually because Qianzhong was occupied by the Qin State, cut off the back road, and went to the newly conquered southwest Yi Dianchi area to establish himself as the king and establish the Dian Kingdom......

He compared Zhuang Ji with Wei Yao of Na Ershan because both of them were born in the regular army, but they were halfway into the road of thieves, but they did different things from ordinary thieves to burn and loot......

It is precisely because he does not do too much harm to the people of Nanxiang that many people even admire him and protect him. When everyone heard that they were going to encircle and suppress the thieves in Ershan, of course they refused to cooperate, maybe someone would have informed Wei Yi of this matter earlier.

It stands to reason that Mingyue heard that the thieves in Nanxiang were not so vicious, so he should breathe a sigh of relief and be happy for the people, but in fact, he was a little more vigilant about the thieves.

Water thieves are evil towns, at most they are small troubles, and they can be suppressed by force, and the people will be grateful to him. But the power of this thief is no less than that of the water thief, there are as many as 1,000 people, entrenched in the mountains and forests for dozens of miles, with their own organizational order, and they have also won the support of the ordinary people of Nanxiang, so it is very terrifying, if you don't plan as soon as possible, Wei Yao will become Mingyue's elbow and armpit!

Thieves are not afraid, they are afraid that thieves are cultured! Mingyue felt that Nanxiang was likely to become the most difficult region to rule in his fiefdom in the future.

Of course, this is something he can't tolerate, no matter whether Wei Yi did anything to harm the people, and whether he is really a righteous thief or not, there can only be one voice in Chang'anjun's fiefdom! Didn't he collect troops and food in the name of suppressing thieves just to centralize power? On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?

However, the situation in Nanxiang was complicated, and it was obviously not feasible to treat them the same as the water thieves in Xixiang, so he had no faith in the post:

"You take a few clever rangers, disguise yourself as merchants, go to Nanxiang to make a secret visit, if possible, find a way to enter the thief's territory, meet that Wei Yi, and see what kind of character he is......"

Mingyue's purpose is naturally to see, can this Wei Yao be appeased like Zhuang Ji? is still unruly, and there is no room for conversation with him, so he can only be exterminated.

As soon as you heard this, you immediately said with a bitter face: "During the conversation, the lord gave the minister the most difficult task among the four of us, and the minister is afraid that he will be overwhelmed." ”

Mingyue smiled: "In terms of scheming, you might as well be fat; In terms of stability, you are not as good as Gong Zhongyin; In terms of urgency, justice and righteousness, you are not as good as Dong Fang. But only the clever and clever know how to be flexible, in this regard, the three of them together are not as good as you, if you don't go to this matter, who else can do it? I have high hopes for you! ”

"Minister......" Chang Anjun suddenly said that he had high hopes for himself, and he was speechless for a while, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, pride and apprehension.

After a while, he said, "It's no problem for the minister to go, but the minister has a few requests." ”

"You're the one who has a lot to do with the four." Mingyue scolded with a smile, because he was the same age as him, and among the four black-clothed people, it was Mail Wuxin who was closer to him and spoke more casually.

"If you have any requests, even if you bring them, as long as they are not excessive, I will agree to them!"

You Wuxin said solemnly: "First, the minister wants to ask the lord for a personal ......."

"Who do you want?"

"Lu Goujian!"

Mingyue was stunned: "Why him?" ”

"The people of Nanxiang are good light warriors, and the thieves boast of being righteous, they admire the warriors the most, Lu Goujian is famous in Handan, take him with him, and the local light warriors and thieves are easy to talk to, of course ......"

This kid was serious for only three seconds, and immediately said with a hippie smile: "My martial arts are not as good as the three brothers, Lu Goujian has a skill, which is just right to protect me." ”

Mingyue was speechless, I'm afraid the latter is the main reason, but I agreed.

"Secondly, this trip is dangerous, if the minister is gone...... he will never return" The voice of the post without letter seemed to be choked, "The son should know that the minister is the only son in the family......"

"Alright, alright." Mingyue waved her hand at him impatiently: "If you can make meritorious contributions, you will inevitably be given money and a mansion." ”

Post Wuxin hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, what the minister means is that the minister has taken a fancy to the daughter of the local chief Wen, and when the thieves are exhausted, he still hopes that the lord will be the matchmaker for the minister......

Mingyue laughed angrily at him: "When did you hook up with Wen's daughter?" ”

Post Wuxin is serious: "On the day when the lord invited Hao Chang to feast, he sent me to Wen's post, so I met Wen's daughter under the door and talked a few words......"

A few words to the eye, said that you are good to marry? This skinny monkey also has some ability!

"I promise you."

At this time, it was originally a dangerous mission to go deep into the tiger's den, but it was diluted by the gag attitude of Post Wuxin, Mingyue shook her head helplessly, waved her hand, and let Post Wuxin go down and prepare.

After the post was gone, Cai Ze came out from behind the curtain and said with some worry: "The lord and the lord marry the local lord, I don't know if it's a bad thing or a good thing......

"Don't worry, sir."

Mingyue looked at the back of the post Wuxin and said: "Don't look at this son laughing and scolding all day long, but he can do things, no worse than the other three, Nanxiang's affairs, I have to rely on him to find out, as for marrying the local chief......"

Mingyue smiled: "Instead of waiting for the Qi family and the Wen family to stuff their daughters into me as concubines, it is better to let my retainers accept them on my behalf." ”

"The sovereign doesn't think about it?" Cai Ze asked rhetorically, in the past month, many heroes have been scrambling to send their daughters to Chang'anjun's bed, which is also a way to make friends with local forces......

Mingyue is very resolute and will never betray her complexion: "Before marrying a wife, I will never take a concubine." ”

As soon as he spoke, he winked at Cai Ze and said, "But sir, if you are nearly thirty years old, you should also marry a wife?" I heard that the daughter of the Qi family is gentle and virtuous, I wonder if Mr. intends to do so? ”

Cai Ze did not hurriedly refuse, but smiled: "Although the minister has a remote appearance, if he doesn't marry, he will marry the daughter of Bigao and the country!" ”

This is an allusion, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Qi and the State of Jin went to war, among the soldiers of the State of Qi, there was a warrior named Yi Wucun, when he set out on the expedition, he was about to get married. When he heard that he was going to go on the expedition, he resolutely gave up the bride. He said: "On this expedition, you will either die on the battlefield or return with meritorious service. If I am lucky enough to come back alive, I must marry the daughter of the Gao clan and the Guo clan. ”

Gao's and Guo's clans, that is the most noble Qing clan in Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period, Cai Ze's meaning is obvious, he will either do nothing in his life, or he will soar, and he must be the daughter of the Qing and the general to be worthy of him!

Mingyue was ambitious, and also said: "However, the eldest husband only suffers from fame and fame, why not have a wife?" The talent of the gentleman is indeed not worthy of the daughter of the county magistrate here! ”

Cai Ze didn't talk about this topic anymore, but pulled a silk book out of his sleeve and showed it to Chang Anjun.

"Childe, this is just sent from Handan Kuaima."

Mingyue took the silk book, unfolded it, and immediately raised her eyebrows, and laughed: "The east wind I was waiting for is here!" ”
