Chapter 452: Loyal to the Country

Huang Qianshan, the prefect of Hejian, came out of the city in the evening, but he heard the news of the murder outside the city and hurried out.

Huang Qianshan is also a famous figure in history, but his reputation is not good. After Jingkang, Zhao opened the Generalissimo's Mansion, Huang Qianshan was the deputy marshal, and later in the Southern Song Dynasty, Huang Qianshan also served as a scholar and a scholar. killed the good ministers Ouyang Che and Chen Dong. Fooling Zhao Gou, when he heard the news of the arrival of the Jin people, he ran around, which was hated by the people of the time.

Huang Qianshan got a big tent, and he also brought seven or eight subordinates left and right. Seeing Zheng Zhi, he opened his mouth and said, "Zheng Xianggong, how can you kill people without trial?" ”

Zheng Zhizheng was about to get up to salute, but when he heard Huang Qianshan say such a sentence, he frowned and asked, "Governor Huang is here to ask for guilt?" ”

Huang Qianshan heard Zheng Zhi's rhetorical question, and said: "Zheng Xianggong, if you want to kill someone, you will also come to ask me, and I will also be tried, and the brother of the king of the dynasty will die in Hejian City, how can I explain to Tokyo." ”

"Oh? Whose brother died in the army? Zheng Zhi sat down again, and he didn't bother to be polite, but as soon as Huang Qianshan said this, his impression in Zheng Zhi's heart fell.

Huang Qianshan naturally didn't know if Zheng Zhi really didn't know, and said anxiously: "Zheng Xianggong, you killed that Wang Huang's younger brother, this matter has nothing to do with me, and please make sure that Wang Xianggong must explain it clearly and clearly." ”

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he looked up at Huang Qianshan, who was anxious and worried, and only said: "What is the urgency of a certain Huang Governor who is in such a hurry to find out, the original way is this matter, killing people in the army naturally has nothing to do with you as a local prefect, Huang Governor doesn't need to worry, it can't involve you." ”

Huang Qianshan's face softened a lot, and he said: "That's good, that's good." I don't know anything about Zheng Xianggong's murder in the army. ”

Zheng Zhi suddenly stood up again, and said: "When I first arrived today, I didn't go to the yamen first, so I invited Huang Zhifu to the city to entertain a table. ”

Huang Qianshan listened to this, waved his hand again and again: "Zheng Xianggong is polite, I am the landlord, I should be the east, it is not early, Zheng Xianggong please." ”

Zheng Zhi smiled slightly, then walked out, and said: "There is one more thing I want to ask Governor Huang for today, and I ask Governor Huang to agree." ”

Huang Qianshan was shocked when he heard this, and thought that Zheng Zhi was asking for murder, so he hurriedly said: "Zheng Xianggong, this Wang Tianming's crimes are all military law, and there is nothing illegal in the local area. ”

Huang Qianshan probably thought that Zheng Zhi knew that he had killed Wang Hao's brother, and he must have been afraid in his heart, and wanted to help him make Huang Qianshan's crime a capital crime, so it was relatively easy to explain. But it was Huang Qianshan who would take the risk for Zheng Zhi, and he just wanted to leave this matter out in his heart.

Zheng Zhi became more and more disdainful in his heart, and only smiled: "Haha... Huang Zhifu is too worried, one person does things and one person is responsible, how can Huang Zhifu be involved in doing such illegal and undisciplined things. ”

Obviously, Zheng Zhi and this Huang Qianshan are at the border, and they have not yet received the news of Wang Hao's resignation.

Huang Qianshan was relieved at this time, and asked: "As long as it is not such a matter of planting crimes, other things are not difficult, please tell me." ”

The two of them had walked out of the big tent not far away, Zheng Zhi raised his hand and pointed to the camps nearby, and said: "The Huang Governor's Mansion also knows that there are fifty or sixty thousand soldiers gathered outside the city, but the imperial court's food and salary have not yet arrived, and the camp is already stretched. ”

Speaking of money, Huang Qianshan's face shook, and then he also smiled, and replied: "Zheng Xianggong doesn't know, when the former Tong Taishi patrolled the border, he went to Dehejian Mansion, and closed the field in Xiongzhou, and now the treasury is also shy in the pocket. ”

When Huang Qianshan said this, he glanced at Zheng Zhi again, saw that Zheng Zhi's face was slightly gloomy, and said busily: "But Zheng Xianggong's difficulty is a major matter for the national army, and it should be helped. ”

Zheng Zhi heard that Huang Qianshan's words were extremely good, but he didn't believe it in his heart, so he asked: "Thank you Huang Governor's Mansion for this, I don't know how much food Huang Governor's Mansion can send tomorrow?" ”

Huang Qianshan also knew that his words were extremely beautiful, and he thought that this time he was probably prevaricating, so he said: "In the treasury grain depot, there are about two thousand stone grains and twenty or thirty thousand silver coins. It will not be left, and it will be sent to the army tomorrow, which can be regarded as the government's loyal contribution to the country. ”

Zheng Zhi smiled when he heard this, and he was also slandering in his heart that the fact that Huang Qianshan was talking nonsense with his eyes open was extraordinary, and his face was also extremely thick-skinned, how could a Hejian Mansion only have this little money and food, even a three-year-old child could not be deceived, but this Huang Qianshan still talked so eloquently and did his best to contribute to the country. However, Zheng Zhi didn't say anything to debunk it, but said: "Haha... Huang Zhifu is generous and admired. Thank you very much. ”

Huang Qianshan even replied: "Yes, yes, at the moment of the war, my generation has received the emperor's grace, and An Neng will not support it?" ”

Zheng Zhi suddenly stopped and said, "Governor Huang, wait for a while before going to the camp, and go back to the tent to get a waist card, so as not to be able to enter the camp at night." Coming in a moment. ”

Huang Qianshan did not doubt him, but said: "I didn't expect the prime minister to govern the army so strictly, the prime minister invited himself, and I waited for the prime minister in front of the camp." ”

Zheng Zhi turned back a few steps and said to Niu Dao: "Go and call Wu Yong." ”

Niu Da heard Zheng Zhi's tone, and already knew that something was going to happen, so he rushed away.

Zheng Zhi returned to the big tent and waited for a while, Wu Yong had arrived.

Zheng Zhi didn't wait for Wu Yong to meet him, and had already instructed: "The pedant quickly go and gather all the people, enter the city before dark, take over the garrison and defense of Hejian City, and empty the large and small treasury grain depots in Hejian City, especially the prefect's yamen, and move out the inner and outer yamen." But if someone resists, they will be beaten. ”

Wu Yong didn't know about the documents and holy decrees that Zheng Zhi had just received, and he was shocked when he heard this. It is not difficult to take over the garrison and defense of Hejian City, and at this time, the soldiers and horses of Hejian Mansion are also under the jurisdiction of Zheng Zhi. However, Hejian Mansion is not compared to other places, it is the state capital where important military logistics are gathered on the Song-Liao border, and now there is no war, so it is not enough to act like this, and even the prefect's internal government is also empty, which is too bold.

"Xianggong, I'm afraid of this... Wu Yong hurriedly replied.

"Obey orders and do not need to say much." Zheng Zhi didn't wait for Wu to speak, so he interrupted directly, turned around and took out a roll of golden brocade silk in the cabinet behind the desk, and walked out of the big tent.

This time out of the big tent again, Zheng Zhi turned over and got on the horse, not on foot. Behind him, Niu Da followed with a few personal soldiers.

Huang Qianshan, who was waiting, saw Zheng Zhi coming on horseback, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Zheng Xianggong is good at riding." ”

Zheng Zhi saw that there were still a few carriages on the side, and said with a smile: "Huang Zhifu, please, if you don't get drunk tonight, you won't return." ”
