Fortunately, Zheng Xia, the transfer envoy and the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture, even after he arrived, could not directly govern Zhongtiao Mountain.

After reading the good news that Cai Lanling and Hua Qiqi had inherited together, Cai Dao suddenly thought of an idea.

Since the rulers of the current dynasty and Zheng Xia didn't want Cai Dao to have a good time, then he simply disappeared completely, not only so that they couldn't grasp their handles, but also allowed the other party to not find themselves, and cast a mouse.

This method is bandits.

Since Cai Dao has been recognized by the world as the reincarnation of the fortune boy, how can the bandits of Taihang Mountain, who are close at hand, not be blushing?

If you don't do it, you don't stop doing it, Cai Dao immediately wrote to Cai Lanling and Hua Xianyi, asking them to send You Feixiong and Du Menghu to take all the minions under the two of them with great fanfare, and directly rob Cai Dao on the day when Baiyun Temple reopened.

In this way, although Cai Dao will be stained with some stigma, but after all, he is still just a child now, and without the protection of the imperial court generals around him, isn't it natural that he will be kidnapped by lawless bandits?

Moreover, Cai Dao also specially sent people to inquire about Zheng Xia's behavior along the way, and once he found out when he would be able to take office in Taiyuan Mansion, he immediately held an opening ceremony. Cai Dao was about to be kidnapped by his own subordinates in front of the guests on the day Zheng Xia took over. So that the whole world can see the ugly faces of these conservative ministers.

According to the plan he came up with temporarily, Cai Dao ordered his subordinates to handle them one by one immediately. The person who went to inquire about Zheng Xia's whereabouts kept sending the messenger to report back, but he did not find the whereabouts of this anti-bone boy. However, Cai Dao got accurate news on the third day. As Cai Dao's outdated opponent, although Cai Dao didn't take Zheng Xia to heart, the big leader of the seven-color collar has been sending people to keep an eye on the anti-bone boy.

As soon as Zheng Xia received the holy decree, he let his family take a carriage and slowly went to Taiyuan Mansion to take office, but he himself wanted to give Cai Dao a Ming Xiu plank road to secretly cross Chen Cang, and the people who had been following him found that Zheng Xia's direction was the Zhongtiao Mountains, not to Taiyuan through Hezhong Mansion. It seems that he wants to sneak into Lotus Mountain-Baiyun Temple and secretly inquire about Cai Dao's recent movements.

It is your enemy who knows you best, and that's not wrong. However, Zheng Xia did something wrong this time. He thinks that after Cai Dao arrives at Baiyun Temple, he will definitely not stay here at ease and resign himself to fate, this Luo Guozi must have a good move in the dark.

Not long ago, there was a commotion in Bianliang City for three consecutive days, and almost no one thought it was Cai Dao's handiwork. The conservative ministers all believed that this was the last resort of Cai Qu and Zhang Dun in order to save the decline and avoid being demoted from the imperial court. The commotion of those three days really made Sima Xianggong so angry that he vomited blood. However, for the entire conservative force, not only was it unscathed, but it also allowed them to take the first position of the law change - Taixue.

Zheng Xia was the only one who identified the initiator of those three days was undoubtedly Luo Guozi Cai Dao, he found Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongshu, but unfortunately, these two old guys couldn't listen to his opinion at all. Later, the conservative ministers were all annoyed by him, and it just so happened that the Empress Dowager wanted to take down the eunuch Li Xian, who had been stirring up trouble on the Song-Xia border, and Cai Dao's Baiyunguan happened to be on Hedong Road.

Therefore, after Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu discussed it together, these old things have already relegated Luo Guozi to the Baiyun Temple where birds don't, and if they really want to do it, they can't wipe this face! What's more, Wang Anshi is still seriously ill now, if they do things too decisively, how will the people of the world think of them? Not to mention Wang Anshi, even Sun Jue and Zeng Gong, two highly respected and respected ministers, will not agree.

Didn't you Zheng Xia want to trouble Luo Guozi? Oh well! This is not just right, Li Xian was taken, and there was an extra vacancy on Hedong Road. They simply came to push the boat down the river, and appointed Zheng Xia as the new Hedong Road transfer envoy to meet the prefect of Taiyuan Mansion, and you are the anti-bone boy who will do it yourself, even if you kill this Luo Guozi, what does it have to do with them? Isn't all this Zheng Xia's own idea?

But Zheng Xia ignored the fact that Cai Dao is still a child now, even if he guessed correctly that Cai Dao would continue to do things, but what does Cai Dao want to do, does he need to do it himself?

After Cai Dao got the news, he was overjoyed, and he originally planned to stage that big drama when Zheng Xia took over. Now, knowing that Zheng Xia is going to throw himself into the net, how can Cai Dao make him feel better?

Therefore, Cai Dao immediately sent someone to send an urgent document to Cai Lanling, and the letter specifically stated that the ceremony of opening the Baiyun Temple would be held in three days, and the team led by You Feixiong and Du Menghu left all the supplies and baggage, and they must feel that Lotus Mountain as soon as possible.

……

Things are going on step by step according to Cai Dao's plan, and the people he sent out are still staring at Zheng Xia's convoy in the open, while the secret agent of the seven-color collar has been staring at Zheng Xia himself, who thinks he has a plan.

On this day, the yellow calendar is just a small auspicious day, it is advisable to enter the house, light rain.

Zheng Xia, dressed in patched coarse cloth clothes, rushed to the foot of Lotus Mountain with a caravan. The director of this caravan is surnamed Ding, named Ding Youcai, a native of Qingzhou, and his family has a small amount of money. In the past, he was a medium-sized grain merchant, mostly reselling grain for a living. In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, the Central Plains was ripe, so that he, a grain merchant who hoarded a lot of grain at home, almost broke his production.

Fortunately, Cai Dao happened to buy a large amount of grain on Liangshan Mountain at that time. In order to keep his own capital, after Ding Youcai learned the news, he sold all the grain in his family to Cai Dao at a low price as soon as possible. Although he also lost a lot of money in this transaction. However, at that time, he thought very clearly than others, compared with other small and medium-sized grain merchants in the Central Plains, he was able to keep sixty percent of the capital, which was already a blessing from God.

In this transaction, it seems that Ding Youcai has suffered a big loss, but under the premise that the Central Plains is ripe, Cai Dao is already very kind to be able to give that price.

Therefore, Ding Youcai has always thought that Cai Dao is his father-in-law. No, when he learned that Cai Dao was demoted to Baiyun Temple, he immediately organized a large caravan in his hometown. First, I want to take advantage of this opportunity to do some business and make up for the deficit at home. The second is to pay a visit to this little benefactor.

At that time, after the local wealthy families heard the news, many people laughed at Ding Youcai's whimsy, and more people were not optimistic about his action. Merchants of the entire Great Song Dynasty knew a fact - that is, bandits were rampant in the Taihang Mountains, and even the government of the two roads had nothing to do with these bandits. Why did he dare to go to Hedong Road?

To enter the Hedong Road, you must pass through any of the four southern peaks of the Taihang Mountains, and each of them is occupied by bandits. If you want to do business on Hedong Road safely and steadily, there are three ways.

First, either follow behind the big clans, which of these big families in the north have caravans, and their caravans have sufficient guards The bandits in the Taihang Mountains don't dare to provoke these caravans at all. Therefore, the trade between Hedong Road and Hebei is basically controlled by the caravans of several big families.

Of course, among the thieves in Taihang Mountain, not all of them are rules, such as Taihang Village, since Shan Xiongba became the master of the big village here, he dared to rob the caravan of the big family, and as long as one of them dared to resist and kill a small minion in Taihang Mountain, he dared to kill all the men in the caravan, and the goods and women were brought to the mountain.

However, the Jingcheng Pass where Taihang Village is located is located in the three areas, and those families who have suffered a secret loss have no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs. No one can do anything about him.

Therefore, since then, except for some small and medium-sized caravans that have befriended Shan Xiongba, no large caravan has dared to take the shortcut of Jingcheng Pass, which is closest to the border of Liao.

Second, it is to ask a dart master to escort them through the customs. As for whether these dart masters dare to fight with the bandits for these goods, no one can predict.

Third, the simplest and safest is to spend money to buy peace. But at this point, Ding Youcai just can't do it, he himself only has a small amount of money, and the people he summoned are not too rich.

As a result, Ding Youcai walked out of the fourth road, through the canal, at the crossing of the Yellow River, took the Cai family's boat, and got off at the southern foot of Zhongtiao Mountain, and he could directly reach the southern foot of Lotus Mountain.

Ding Youcai didn't know that the poor man who had been following their caravan and wanted to go to Lotus Mountain to join in the fun was the famous anti-bone boy Zheng Xia, when he rushed to the crowd of Lotus Mountain along the way to find out the details, he was excited to learn that he had actually caught up with the opening ceremony of Baiyun Temple.
