When Yang Bantou heard that he wanted him to lead the way, Zhang Zai allowed Yang Bantou to take a ten-day holiday, and Yang Bantou was overjoyed. The three of them went on the road and hurried, and after walking for a few hours, they found a place where the river beach was shaded by trees, and people and horses also needed to drink.

Yang Bantou is forty or fifty years old, originally from Yanzhou, and his parents settled here when they came to Danzhou because of the war, but there are still relatives and friends in Yanzhou, and he went back to visit this time. Speaking of his relatives and friends, Yang Bantou said that he had a cousin who was still in Yanzhou, and now she was still the wife of the county order. also said that the son of the Yanzhou County Order is also a student of the Zhang County Order of this county.

He Libo joked, could it be that you are the leader of the team, and you are also nepotistic? Yang Bantou hehehe, hey, Yile, neither admits nor denies. But when it comes to Zhang Zaiyang's team leader, he admires it, and also says that his brother-in-law is the same as Zhang Zai, who is a county magistrate, and also serves as a "farmer official"

Wang was made big by the official rank and position of the Song Dynasty, so he asked this Yang Bantou to talk about it.

It turned out that the state and county magistrates of the Song Dynasty, as well as the road-level transfer envoys and prison mentioners, were all ranked as "persuading farmers". The transfer envoy, the mention of the prison, and the governor of a certain level have the title of "persuading farmers", the general judgment and so on have the title of "persuading farmers", and the magistrates of counties have "persuading farmers". This persuasion of agriculture and public affairs mainly has four responsibilities: 1. Educate the people and change their customs. 2. Cultivate in time, and do not mistake cropping. 3. Inspect officials and deal with field lawsuits. 4. Promote advanced agricultural technology.

As the king listened, he saw that He Libo was more serious than he was, and seemed to be thinking about something

Wang asked next to him: "Brother He is so interested in the official culture of the Central Plains. “

He Libo said: "Don't hide it from my brother, I always vaguely feel that one day my people will have their own dynasty. ”

Yang Ban said that he knew that it was inconvenient to listen to these things, so he led the horses of the three of them to the river, and the two of them sat down in the shade of the tree, and talked while taking out dry food and eating briefly.

Wang said: "Since the eldest brother has this heart, he will return to the Liao State when the time is ripe, even if he does not oppose the Liao State to get an official and a half-post with the eldest brother's qualifications, it is also good to protect the people." ”

He Libo nodded and said: "My people are all people who have not been incorporated into the Liao nationality, although they are in the territory of the Liao country, they are repeatedly bullied. As he spoke, he pinched the cake in his hand with hatred, and the soft cake in his hand was pinched by him.

Wang Pan saw that the opportunity was almost over and said: "Big brother, you believe in the little brother, you will go back to Beijing this time to have a look, if the eldest brother can talk about it specifically, maybe the younger brother can help the eldest brother make a move and a half." ”

He Libo looked at Wang Bian gratefully, patted Wang Bian's shoulder with his big hand, and said: "I have been in the Song Dynasty for a few years, and I wanted to go to Master Di to learn again, but I am unlucky, but I am fortunate to be able to explain you as a brother." I'm going to get straight to the point today. ”

"Since the Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji destroyed the Bohai Sea, some Jurchens moved south with the Bohai people and incorporated into the Liao nationality, called "mature Jurchen"; Those were the rulers of the Liao Dynasty. Those who stay in their hometown and are not naturalized in Liao are our clansmen. Since the Tang Dynasty, it is called the Black Water Eagle, which lives in the Heilongjiang area and makes a living from fishing and hunting. The rulers of the Liao Dynasty had long asked for pearls and "Haidongqing" (a type of eagle) for hunting. Impose taxes and humiliate our women.

Later, some of the Magyar family (Magyer, now Hungarians) moved westward, and then there was submission to the rule of the Liao State, I just didn't want to be angry, so I left my hometown and went all the way south to the Great Song Dynasty. Sooner or later, I'm going back! With that, He Libo clenched his fists.

Wang Fang clapped his hand on top of the group, and said firmly and encouragingly, "Big brother, I support you, you need money to fight." When we do a big business, I will help my eldest brother to return to his hometown to recruit troops. ”

He Libo excitedly held the hand next to the king, and said in a slightly choked voice: "Brother, I will definitely complete the important task of my ancestors after I finish impeaching Libo." ”

"You, you, you, what's your name, big brother?" The king's eyes widened in astonishment.

He Libo said: "When I go back, I will finish calling Yan to impeach Libo.!" ”

Wang Bian's ambivalent mood was indescribable, and he asked: "Is there anyone in the clan who is called Wanyan Aguda?" ”

He Libo scratched his head, "This, it's really not, Ah Guta, Ah Guta, this name is good." Just and upright, there is backbone, whoever bullies us will be beaten! In the future, when I give birth to a child, I must take this name. ”

The king grinned, half mocking, half sarcastic and half helpless, and said: "Okay, then I will be his father-in-law" He Libo laughed, as if he had a son now, saying that it was necessary. The king was even more helpless, it was enough for him to be entangled when he became the queen of Xixia under the moon, and if He Libo really beat his father, he would not live.

There is Yang Bantou to lead the way, and the three of them arrived in Yanzhou in less than two days, with Hengshan as the boundary, the northwest belongs to the Western Xia, and the south is the Song Dynasty, which belongs to the Yongxing Military Road, Yan'an Prefecture, and the Suide Army. Yanzhou was a border city where the Song and Western Xia were at war. The highest military headquarters of the Song army on the northwest front was located in the city of Yanzhou, where Fan Yong once gave orders and dispatched troops.

After Li Yuanhao's death, the two-year-old Li Liangzuo succeeded to the throne, that is, Xia Yizong was young for more than ten years, and his mother did not hide the Empress Dowager and did not hide the dictatorship of Pang. At that time, Liao Xingzong of the Liao Dynasty attacked the Western Xia again, and finally the Western Xia declared himself a vassal to the Liao Dynasty. The Empress Dowager was busy with lewdness and lust, and colluded with outsiders many times, among which Li Shougui and Shi Duoji competed for favor many times.

did not hide Pang to get power, and after the crime, Li Shougui killed the queen mother and ate too much, and was also killed by Pang after the crime. did not hide the false Pang and married his daughter to Xia Yizong to control Xia Yizong. Think about such a chaotic court, how can you still have the heart to invade foreign races. Therefore, in recent years, the Western Xia and Song dynasties have generally been peaceful.

When Wang went to Yanzhou, he first found a residence in the store, and entrusted Yang Bantou to bring his own name post. If you have this kind of relationship, you can't go up and pay a visit. and with He Libo to inquire about the rumors about the Liang family girl on the border, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that although the Liang family girl had the same surname as Yuexia, she was not Yuexia, but the daughter-in-law who did not hide the false Pang.

The Liang daughter is Han, but she was born beautiful, and she married into the Pang family at the age of thirteen. His elder brother tried to gain fame in the Song examination, but was accused of having a marriage with Western Xia, so he was deposed, and was later buried by Liang Yi, who was recognized by the moon and named Liang Yi. Wang Bei breathed a sigh of relief. But it's still sad, if the Liang daughter is really under the moon, at least she knows that the moon is safe, and at this time, there is a bit of uncertainty about life and death.

In a few days in Yanzhou, Wang found that Xixia had the Hexi Corridor, the main commercial artery of the Silk Road, and that the country was only rich in animal husbandry, so there was a large demand for grain, tea and some handicrafts;

In addition to being eaten by the people of Western Xia, the Qingbai salt of Western Xia was mainly used for official trade with the Song Dynasty, Liao Dynasty and Jin Dynasty, of which it was transported to the Guanzhong area of the Song Dynasty the most, and in exchange for a large amount of grain. For this reason, the Song court forbade the Western Xia to import green salt, and the Song people could only smuggle the import to make huge profits.

Wang Bi also found that the land around the prefecture and county was mostly barren, and the occasional peasant households had to be maintained, and those with a little physical and mental strength wandered back and forth across the border, smuggling and selling some green salt, horses, and grain.

It is said that the interior of Western Xia is so chaotic that the border should be relatively peaceful, but when I came, I found that it was a mess. The soldiers guarding the border colluded with each other to sell, and the soldiers on the Western Xia side were more like bandits, and suddenly a group came, robbed the finances of the surrounding people, trampled on the land, and turned around and ran.

They were originally bandits to rob, and they didn't have the heart to fight, so they just wanted to get pocket money. The soldiers of Western Xia also knew that they couldn't fight, and they saw that there were many soldiers in the Song Dynasty, but they didn't want to do much. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty didn't want to fight, as long as they were safe with money and money, it would be fine. This unfortunate is the people around the state and county.

But all those who are young and bold will put their heads on their belts and do some smuggling for profit. Without this condition, they can only guard the thin land, and while farming, they are worried that their rations will be robbed.

This smuggling business must not be able to be done by the king. After all, he is half of the court, and if he is reported, it will not only be a matter of losing his head, but also implicating the family.

Seeing this situation at the border, Wang was a little unsure of where to start. On this day, the two received an invitation from the county order and were about to visit the county office, when they just walked out of the gate of the mansion and looked up to see two people coming. I saw the two beside the king greet each other cordially.

Both of them were in their twenties, and they were passers-by who met at the Danzhou Wangbian and He Libo Hotel. I saw the two of Wang next to me again, and I saw that they lived in the same mansion, which was even more cordial. The four of them agreed to have a good drink on a certain day.

On the way to the county office, Wang pondered, could it be that these two people were also in the smuggling business? Thinking about the governance of the county order of Yanzhou, it is naturally far from that of Yunyan Zhang Zai in Nadan Prefecture, looking at the situation of the people, this county order is like the Chang County Order of Chenzhou, thinking about the difference, the Chen County Order is at most a collusion of officials and bandits. This Yanzhou county order has something to do with the enemy of Western Xia.

Wang Bi thought about this, and his footsteps had already arrived at the gate of the county ya, and the officials went in to report, and after a while, the kung fu county commander Chongyi personally came out to welcome the two into the mansion.

This government is also the second courtyard, the front yard is where the county government office is located, and now the government has handed over the shift, according to the current words, it is late to get off work. Along the corridor through the corner door into the inner house, although not as poor as Danzhou County Ya, but also not lose the simple spectrum, the pattern is also very simple, the courtyard of the inner house is relatively large, but there is one more stone scene in the courtyard, a few trees.

A seventeen or eight-year-old child was standing on a small bench-high stone in the courtyard, and there were two or three family members standing in front of him. ”

A family member snickered, and the child pointed at him with his hand and glared: "Don't laugh, you take 200 people and attack Shilijing with this general." The family returned: "Son, two hundred people are not enough!"

The boy got angry and said, "You dare to disobey military orders? He pointed to the man who had already sent out 3,200 soldiers and said, "You two drag him out and beat him with a hundred palms!" ”

Wang looked at it and almost didn't laugh, hitting his palm, what kind of punishment is this? Chong Yi also saw this scene and smiled, but quickly said with a straight face: "Jianzhong, there are guests visiting, don't mess around." ”

The boy turned around and saw the seed ceremony, and called "Daddy" and ran over to salute the two beside the king.

The seed instrument introduced to them, "This is a dog: the seed is under construction"
