Chapter 128: Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai
Chapter 103 Chapter 128
Out of the Taishou Mansion, Liu Yuan looked back at the door of the mansion, turned his face and smiled, and left quickly.
Although I couldn't get news of Huang Zhong, it was good to be able to arouse Zhang Ji's curiosity in the name of medical school. Historically, Zhang Ji abandoned his official position and turned to specialize in medical skills, and he devoted himself to writing "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", but he did not believe that Zhang Ji was immune to the temptation of promoting medical skills and improving the status of doctors. What's more, Liu Yuan also made a discovery - there must be some internal connection between Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo.
As for what kind of connection it is, I don't know now, but he believes that it will surface later.
Back at the restaurant, after a while, the shopkeeper came to visit.
"Lord, there are Shanyue people in the city today, and his subordinates have sent people to follow them, so there must be news in the evening."
In the Han Dynasty, the Shanyue people were also a type of barbarians. Although they are also engaged in farming, fishing and hunting are also their main business. Therefore, there are often Shanyue people who go out of the mountains and go to the Han city to exchange their furs for some salt and other daily necessities, and it is not surprising that there are Shanyue people in Linxiang City.
"Hmm" Liu Yuan nodded and asked, "Do you know the main situation of the Shanyue tribe in Changsha?" For example, population, surname, etc.? ”
"My lord, my subordinates know something." The shopkeeper pondered for a moment and said: "Most of the Shanyue people in the south of the Yangtze River are distributed in Yangzhou and Jingnan. There are not many distributions in this Changsha county. There are about a dozen tribes and 10,000 people. ”
"The Shanyue people in Changsha can be regarded as kind and low-key. Except for the necessary exchange of daily necessities, there is hardly much contact with the locals. Unlike Yangzhou, there are often Shanyue people who attack the city and rob grain, grass and silver. This has a lot to do with Zhang Taishou, it is rumored that Lord Taishou went up the mountain to collect medicine, and once saved a lot of Shanyue people with medical skills. ”
"As for their traditional surnames, my subordinates don't know much about them."
After listening to this, Liu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "What specific needs or difficulties do they have?" ”
"Specific difficulties?" The shopkeeper was a little puzzled.
"Well, the main purpose of this king's trip south this time is to establish friendship with the local Shanyue people, I don't know their needs, how to throw the bait?"
The shopkeeper's abruptness.
"Hmm" he pondered for a moment and said, "The Shanyue people have always been called barbarians, and in the eyes of our descendants of Yan and Huang, their status is not high. There is even some discrimination. In addition, the people of Shanyue live a hard life, and food, salt, and iron tools are all necessary living items. These things are difficult for Shanyue people to obtain in the cities of the Han Dynasty. Even if you can exchange furs and specialties, you are very passive and suffer. ”
"My subordinates have also talked with the Shanyue people, and the implication of his words is to complain about the discrimination of our Han people, and secondly, they are quite yearning for our Han civilization, but they have no opportunity to learn. Although the officials did not care whether to educate the Shanyue people, no one was willing to take the initiative to help them. ”
After saying this, the shopkeeper stood quietly.
Liu Yuan lowered his head slightly, pondered for a long time, and said: "That is the case, this king has a plan in his heart!" You should contact the leader of the Shanyue tribe here as soon as possible, and this king will see him as soon as possible! ”
"Yes! The subordinates promised to complete the matter within three days. ”
"Well, let's go down."
When he went south to Jingzhou, Liu Yuan's purpose was not just to find and recruit talents, but more importantly, to put a nail in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that the yellow scarf has just been flattened, on the surface, the entire Han Dynasty can be regarded as calm. However, Liu Yuan had to make some preparations for the upcoming troubled times.
Although he promised Emperor Ling, and from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to uncover the rod and cut the wood, but the trajectory of history would definitely not revolve around his thinking. It is inevitable that the heroes will compete for the deer!
If the Han Dynasty really can't be saved, it is natural for him to compete in the world again!
Then, it is imperative to lay a nail in this Jiangnan!
Whether or not he can change the fate of the Han Dynasty, there is nothing wrong with doing so.
If the Han Dynasty is supported by him, then after that, he will definitely advise Shangshu to include and integrate Shanyue, so that they can become real Han people - there are only Han people in the world, and there is no need for other voices; If the Han Dynasty is overturned, then it is self-evident to be friendly with Shanyue, or even secretly controlled!
The most important thing is Gan Ning's investment.
The so-called no leader is not good, with Gan Ning, the sailor can really crisscross the rivers, lakes and seas.
The water division is completed, then the Jiangnan water town will be left to its vertical and horizontal, providing resources and technical help for the Shanyue people, and even controlling the Shanyue department, which will be a matter of course
Gan Ning received the task assigned by Liu Yuan, and while ordering his henchmen and ordering all the Jinfan thieves to go out to search for people who had fallen into the water along the river, he hurried to the shore of Dongting Lake.
Throughout the waters of the Yangtze River, water thieves are infested, barricade the river to rob passing business travelers. Among these water thieves, the most powerful and famous are only Gan Ning's Jinfan thief and Jiang Qin Zhoutai's Dongting water thief.
As the two strongest water thieves in the Yangtze River Basin, there have been many confrontations between them.
Of course, Gan Ning naturally won, while Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were completely defeated. Otherwise, the two of them would not be so jealous of Gan Ning.
Since there have been confrontations, it is not surprising that the two gangs know each other.
Gan Ning clearly knows that the nest of the Dongting water thieves; And the Dongting water thieves also knew where Gan Ning's lair was.
When he arrived at Dongting Lake, Gan Ning did not rein in or stay, and went straight to a ferry.
I saw seven or eight fishing boats lying across the water, and a few shirtless and swarthy men were chatting around in the shade on the shore.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the men immediately raised their heads, very alert.
Sigh the law
Gan Ning reined in the reins, and the five henchmen behind him also reined in at the same time.
"Go, tell Jiang Qin Zhoutai, Grandpa Gan I want to see them!"
When those people saw Gan Ning, they immediately pulled out their waist knives, but their faces turned a little pale. I think I know Gan Ning and know his fierceness. Hearing that Gan Ning wanted to see the leader, several people immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and one of them stepped forward, hugged Gan Ning's fist, and said, "Gan Ye, I don't know if you want to see the leader of my family, what's the matter?" ”
"Get out of the way! Lao Tzu wants to see Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, you don't have the right to talk as a pawn! Don't go yet! ”
The man was scolded by Gan Ning, and he didn't dare to be angry or refute, but he said, "Gan Ye, I don't know if you want to meet the leader of my family here, or go to the island in the middle of the lake?" ”
"Go to the island in the middle of the lake naturally!" Gan Ning smiled: "Longtan Tiger's Den Lao Tzu dares to break into, not to mention Jiang Qin Zhoutai's island in the middle of the lake!" ”
The man understood, and hurriedly beckoned the remaining people to get on the fishing boat, and he welcomed Gan Ning and the others into the boat, stretched out the oars, and a few boats crossed a few white lines on the lake, looking at the center of the lake.
The fishing boat that was not carrying people rowed very fast, and in a few breaths it left the fishing boat carrying Gan Ning behind. Seeing this, Gan Ning didn't say anything. He knew that he was going to report to Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai.
On the island in the middle of the lake, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were in the Juyi Hall.
"That beast is fierce!" Jiang Qin had one bare arm, and the arm was wrapped in fine gauze, from which a trace of red leached out. He bared his teeth and said to Zhou Tai: "It is worthy of being the mount of the King of Yuyang, Lao Tzu still wants to ride, I don't want to be almost caught to death!" ”
Zhou Taima grimaced and did not speak. But on the bronzed face, a flash of red. It turned out that Zhou Tai saw the lion tiger beast divine horse, and he also wanted to have a good time, where did he know that before he got close, he was caught off guard and was knocked down by a blow, and that bloody mouth still made him tremble a little.
But such a humiliating thing naturally can't be known to others, otherwise those splashes don't laugh at him very much?
While Jiang Qin was complaining, a water thief walked into the house.
"Big head, second head, Jinfan thief Gan Ning wants to see you, he is already on the water, and he is almost there!"
The two of them were stunned when they heard this, and then they were shocked, Jiang Qin asked, "How many people did Gan Ning bring?" ”
"Five! Plus he himself has six people! ”
"Oh! Whew" Jiang Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly realized that he seemed to be cowardly in front of his subordinates, which was quite inappropriate, so he hurriedly waved it back and said, "Go, prepare a banquet, and catch the wind for the Jinfan thief!" ”
After the minions left, Jiang Qin looked sideways at Zhou Tai, who was frowning, and said, "Big brother, what do you say is the idea of this Gan Ning?" How dare you come to my island in the middle of the lake? Do you rely on your own courage to find fault? ”
"Of course not." Zhou Tai shook his head and said, "Although Gan Ning is a little arrogant, he is not a brainless person. Although my two brothers are not his opponents alone, if they join forces, it will not be difficult to take him down. What's more, there are so many brothers on my island? ”
"That"
The two glanced at each other, and suddenly said, "Mount!" ”
Then, Jiang Qin shook his head again and said, "It's impossible, it's impossible for Gan Ning to risk himself alone for a few mounts!" Don't? ”
"Don't guess, when he comes, won't you know?"
Zhou Tai pondered, Gan Ning was also about to arrive, so he didn't continue to speculate, stood up, and said to Jiang Qin: "Gan Ning is the overlord of the Yangtze River, I think the two of us are not as good as it, so we should greet it in person!" ”
Jiang Qin nodded and walked out of the hall with Zhou Tai
"Gan Xingba!"
"Zhou Youping, Jiang Gongyi!"
Gan Ning jumped off the fishing boat, hugged his fists slightly, and said, "Two, Gan is not welcome?" ”
"Hehe, where, where. This way, please! ”
Zhou Tai stretched out his hand slightly, leading Gan Ning to look at the island.
When they arrived at the Gathering Hall, the drinks had already been arranged, and several people sat down and toasted each other, looking at each other without speaking.
Jiang Qin still couldn't bear it, and said first: "Gan Xingba, why do you have time to come to my island in the middle of the lake?" ”
"Hehehe" Gan Ning smiled and said, "Jiang Gongyi, you are still not calm enough, haha, you want to learn from your eldest brother, do you know?" ”
"Humph!" Jiang Qin snorted coldly and said, "If you have something, just say it, and let it go if you have a fart!" ”
Gan Ning was not angry, and said, "I came to find you two today, and there are two things. ”
"Say." Zhou Tai was calm.
"Sure enough, he is a character who can compete with Grandpa Gan and me," Gan Ning quite appreciated Zhou Tai's calmness, and said: "First, Gan is here to ask for the batch of mounts that your two brothers robbed in Jiangxin!" ”
"Really begging for a mount?" Jiang Qinqi said: "Those mounts, except for the inestimable beasts, although the others are all good horses in a thousand, each horse is only ten thousand gold, and the total is only ten thousand gold, it is not worth your Gan Xingba to take the risk alone, right?" ”
Zhou Tai also nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, Gan Xingba, you have to give a reason, otherwise the mount will not be returned to you!" ”
"I knew you two were going to break the casserole." Gan Ning said with a smile: "Gan doesn't hide it from the two, and now Gan has joined the king of Yuyang and has been named the governor of the water division." Gan was a new person, so he naturally wanted to do something for the main business. Gan Ning did not say that he was the acting Governor of the Navy, and he always felt a little embarrassed.
"Ahh
Jiang Qin Zhoutai looked at Gan Ning in surprise, he couldn't believe that this Jinfan thief who crisscrossed the river had abandoned his freedom and joined others! I can't believe that Gan Ning was named the Governor of the Water Division when he first voted for him.
"What, envy, right?" Gan Ning smiled: "These mounts are the mounts of my lord and his guards, so they naturally want to get them back." You two are also giving Gan someone a face, right? ”
"It's easy to do." Zhou Tai first congratulated Gan Ning and said, "You can take the mount." The deeds of the King of Yuyang, we know it in our hearts, and we all admire it very much, because we don't know the identity of the King of Yuyang, we have the courage to rob the horse mount, but we are guilty. It's good that King Yuyang doesn't blame him. ”
"No blame, no blame!" Gan Ning smiled and said, "How can the lord blame you two?" Huh"
"King Yuyang really doesn't blame us?" Jiang Qin questioned.
"Naturally, I don't blame!" Gan Ning said: "The reason for this is related to the second thing Gan wants to say. ”
Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin glanced at each other, and suddenly understood a little.
"The lord thinks that you are both heroes, you should not be buried in the folk world, you should make a difference, and I specially asked Gan to invite you two to join the Youzhou Water Division, what do you think?"
"Of course, the lord wanted to visit in person, but due to the delay of important matters, he had to send Gan to preach. He asked Gan to apologize on his behalf. ”
"Ahh A look flashed in the eyes of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. After listening to Gan Ning's words, the two were a little moved, and they were more proud.
How not? The king of Yuyang in the world of Megatron said that we are heroes, isn't it worth being proud of?
Seeing that the two of them didn't answer, Gan Ning said again: "You two think about it first, and then it's not too late to give an answer." ”
To say that Gan Ning can be so pleasant, it is really rare. This person, although his mind is delicate, his surname is a little rough, and he is very unhappy when he opens his mouth and closes his mouth.
But because he didn't want to smash his signboard in front of the lord and lose face. Therefore, I decided in my heart that we must do the things that the main bus gave me properly.
Gan Ning's voice fell, and the hall suddenly fell silent.
Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, you have one look, and I have one look, which makes Gan Ning a little tired. Busy said: "The two of you discuss it yourself, Gan will go out first to get some air." ”
After Gan Ning left, Jiang Qin spoke first.
"Big brother, what do you think?" Jiang Qin was a little uncertain and paid attention: "My two brothers are used to being free, I'm afraid"
Zhou Tai didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Gongyi, do you have ideals?" ”
Jiang Qin was a little inexplicable: "Ideal? Hehe" Jiang Qin laughed at himself and said: "I was born in a family of fishermen, and my father and mother made a living from fishing, which was very hard. So when I was a child, I vowed that I must practice water kung fu well, catch the most fish, and let my parents live a better life. Later, the squires oppressed, and the officers and soldiers were rampant, so I swore that I would be a great official, a great general, and glorify my ancestors. Later, my parents worked hard to pay the heavy taxes, and once, the wind on the river never came back, so I became a water thief until I met you, big brother."
"Hehe" Zhou Tai also laughed at himself: "It seems that my two brothers are sympathetic to each other, what do you think of my two abilities?" ”
"Hey, if you want to say that in this water, my two brothers should gallop across the horizon, not Gan Ning hehe." Jiang Qin quickly abandoned the depression in his heart and smiled.
"Well, in this way, the two of us can also be regarded as heroes in the mouth of King Yuyang. So, Gongyi, do you really want to be a free water thief for the rest of your life? Zhou Tai was shocked and said: "The heroes of the ancients all aim to achieve great things. The two of us are also heroes, how can we not do a great career? ”
"Brother, are you moved?" Jiang Qin said.
Zhou Tai didn't answer, and said: "Being a water thief is not a long-term solution after all. Maybe you robbed someone who shouldn't have been robbed that day, just like the Yuyang King, then it will be difficult to have a place for us, you also know that the local wealthy squires are oppressed by the officers and soldiers, and you also know that the Yellow Turban is in troubled times, and you also know that the Yuyang King was assassinated, and even a court pillar like the Yuyang King will be assassinated, you can imagine how dark this world is, even if it is not as good as the end of Qin, it is also a troubled time! ”
"If the troubled times really come, it will be absolutely impossible for us and the Dongting Water Thieves to stay out of it! If the princes rise together, we will be fat in the eyes of others, either eat them or exterminate them! ”
"In that case, it's better to find a backer early, how stable is it?"
"Even if my guess is wrong, then I won't lose by serving a big hero like Yuyang King!"
"Well, that's reasonable," Jiang Qin pondered for a moment and sighed.
"It's just that I don't know what position the Yuyang King promised for our brother." Jiang Qin said again.
"Hehe, the king of Yuyang has the ability to know people, and he can only use people, and he is even more eloquent, otherwise he would not go to Yuyang alone, but he can suppress the Hulu in northern Xinjiang. You see, Ganning is an example. He was originally the same as me, he was a water thief, and as soon as he put into service, he was named the Metropolitan Governor of the Water Division, how big an official, at least it is not worse than a county too guarded, right? ”
"Hehe, if the king of Yuyang can seal me Jiang Qin as a guard, no, be a county order, hehe, it's also cool!"
"Save you? Do prefectural orders? Do you have that ability? Zhou Tai said with a smile: "The two of us are the masters of killing people and setting fires, and we want to govern the place, no, no!" ”
These two people said, actually yy up, these eight characters haven't been skimmed yet!
"Hey, I said, you two thieves, can you keep your voice quiet? What a yindang! Gan Ning stood quietly outside the house, who knew that these two people were still whispering just now, and then they laughed, it was a big deal!
"Ugh!"
The laughter in the room stopped abruptly.
"Have you thought about it?"
Gan Ning walked in and opened his mouth to ask.
"Well, that, Gan Xingba, what official is the King of Yuyang going to seal my brothers?" Jiang Qin shrunk his neck and asked carefully.
"Haha, I know, no wonder the two of you are laughing like yindang, you were thinking about Feng Guan'er!" Gan Ning pointed at Jiang Qin, with a really yindang expression, and said, "Don't worry, the lord is a generous person." He said, let the two of you be my deputies! ”
"Your deputy? Deputy Governor of the Navy? Hey, hey, hey" Jiang Qin's eyes lit up, and his hands rubbed together.
Even Zhou Tai was also excited.
"Hehe, look at you like that, but I like hey, when Gan was just made an official by the lord, he was similar to you, hahaha" Gan Ning smiled: "So, you agreed?" ”
"Agreed, how could you not agree!" Jiang Qin replied immediately.
"But" Zhou Tai restrained his emotions and asked Gan Ning: "The two of us have served the King of Yuyang, what about the brothers under him?" ”
"Haha, the lord has already thought about it for you!" Gan Ning was overjoyed when he saw that the two agreed: "The lord said that they are all dragons and snakes on the water, how can they be buried, and they all join the Youzhou Water Division!" ”
"Relieved, aren't you?"
"Rest assured!"
"Then, from now on, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, you two are the second and third people in the naval army under the command of the Yuyang King of the Han Dynasty, the general of Zhengbei, and the assassin of Youzhou!" Gan Ning said loudly: "Now, the Acting Lord of the Pontus has ordered Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to immediately gather their troops and horses to search for their colleagues who have fallen into the water along the river, and at the same time prepare to fight the assassins!" ”
Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai glanced at each other and shouted:
"Whoa!"
