Di Qing had already heard about the Lantern Festival, and he admired the king in his heart, and he was also relieved to have this good son-in-law. But the riddle made Di Qing already depressed.

Just two days after Wang left Chenzhou, a guest came to Di Qing's Mansion, claiming to be a guest of "Nan Jifeng", the owner of Longhu Villa. When the doorman came to propose, Di Qing naturally would not agree. First, the moon has already liked someone and is about to give a dowry, and secondly, Di Qing of Longhu Villa has never heard of it, let alone heard of the owner of Nanzhuang, so he sent this person away.

As soon as the people from Longhu Villa on the front foot left, the envoys of the court on the back foot arrived. The ambassador came to visit Di Qing, Di Qing felt that the court was not worried about himself, and he was depressed but it was inconvenient to say it directly, but the ambassador seemed to have settled in Chenzhou, and he went to the house every two days to have a look. Di Qing knew that the court was sending people to spy on him. There is indulgence and helplessness in my heart, and there is more loss. In today's words, Di Qing has suffered from depression, and he has a heart to serve the country, but he has been wronged and humiliated.

Liang Yuexia just saw that his father was depressed, and he was helpless. It didn't take long for Wang Anshi's mansion to be hijacked on the way to give a dowry.

But it didn't count the robbery, and it was specially robbed and sent to Di Qing's mansion. In other words, it was a dowry from the robbers. The dowry was delivered to the gate of the house, and the person who left the letter to give the gift left. The letter said that Di Qing would die if he was a loyal minister, so it was better to be with the robbers.

It was a coincidence that the ambassador did not come early or late to visit, but at this time, when he saw the gold, silver and cloth, he smelled the robbers, so he said that Di Qing colluded with the robbers. Di Qing had no choice but to ask for an order to suppress the bandits, but unexpectedly, the ambassador snorted and sneered: "Di Qing, you have evidence of collusion with robbers, do you want to take the opportunity to escape, you know what to do." The ambassador walked away, Di Qing didn't take a breath, sat in the hall with his eyes open, and when He Libo and others found out, he had cut off his breath with his eyes open. The court was so distrustful that Di Qing was so angry and hateful that he forgot Pang Anshi's entrustment and finally died in Chenzhou.

The leader of the robbers is actually the owner of the Longhu Villa, why are the robbers so rampant, this matter has to start from the terrain of Wanqiu:

Although Wanqiu is not high, it is particularly eye-catching because it stands on the vast plain. "Erya Shiqiu" cloud: "There is a mound on the mound for Wanqiu, and there is Wanqiu on Chen." "Erya Commentary" is more specific and vivid: "The center of Wanqiu is steep, like a negative hill on the back. ”

On top of the natural mound - Wanqiu, which existed in ancient times, an ancient city surrounded by an earthen city wall was built, and from a distance, "the shape is like a negative mound on the back", and it has become a unique Wanqiu shape of "a mound on a mound".

A road in the southeast of Wanqiu is the way that the king came through Zhoukou. Kaifeng is in the north of Wanqiu, why should Zhoukou go south to the north into Wanqiu, because at this time, Longhu Lake has already been formed around Wanqiu, and there is only one dry road leading to Wanqiu. And Di Qing and others came to Chenzhou when they took office, and in the early winter, the lake was already frozen and they couldn't take a boat to get closer. This caused him to stay in Zhoukou County, and Wang was killed.

Longhu Lake was formed because of the flooding of the Yellow River. For thousands of years, Wanqiu City has been repeatedly plagued by yellow troubles, and in order to protect this ancient city from being flooded, every time the yellow water floods, they build embankments and dams three to five miles away from the city. After the yellow water recedes, the sediment carried by it is deposited outside the embankment, which gradually rises outside the embankment and gradually depressions inside the embankment, forming the surface of the lake. The willow trees by the lake are forested, the reeds in the lake are all over, and there are lotus ponds, the beautiful scenery is needless to say, but the willow forest and reed bushes have become a place where robbers haunt.

Especially in recent years, a group of robbers are even more arrogant, the bandit leader is in the reeds, Ze mound is high and low, build a mountain villa, form a lake around the reeds, the reeds have a small pond in it, and there is a mountain villa in the small pond. The owner of this villa is Nan Jifeng of Longhu Villa, who sent someone to propose marriage.

The officers and soldiers also encircled and suppressed Longhu Villa and captured Nan Jifeng, but the reed set up an ambush from it, and repeatedly failed to break through, and the people of the villa were haunted, except for not harassing the residents in the county, but attacking the travelers who passed by. After a long time, the local government often turned a blind eye.

Di Qing had not long been in office and did not know much about this matter. But the robbers had already found out the situation. Nan Jifeng was even more punished by Di Qing, so he took advantage of the court's distrust of Di Qing, and the Lantern Festival Lantern controlled the lantern riddles and harmed Di Qing. The robbers who were able to build the villa were not ordinary robbers, but were waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.

Nan Jifeng and Di Qing have a deep enmity in the sea of blood, this person is not an outsider, it is Nong Jifeng, the son of Nong Zhigao. Because Nong Zhigao's self-proclaimed "Southern Heavenly Kingdom" was surrounded and suppressed by Di Qing sent by the Great Song Dynasty, the whole family was arrested, but Nong Jifeng, who was impersonated by a personal attendant and arrested, escaped by himself, and assumed the pseudonym Nan Jifeng.

Because he was proficient in Chinese, he came to the Central Plains, and the rest of Nong Zhigao followed, and stationed in the land of Wanqiu Longhu as a robber. But he knew that the Han people were officials, and they did not seek merit but no fault, so they did not disturb the city, and whenever they robbed a large amount of money, they shared the spoils with some officials. After a long time, the encirclement and suppression of officials has become a show, which is the so-called real collusion between officials and bandits.

Imagine if this is not the case, why is there so many messages about Lord Di during the Lantern Festival, how can the government sit idly by. But all the movements of people entering and leaving Wanqiu City are all in Nan Jifeng's eyes. Knowing that Di Qing had come to Wanqiu, Nan Jifeng wanted to enter the city to assassinate him, but was stopped by one person.

The man tucked his arms into his fat sleeves, and despite the many clothes he wore them, he still looked thin. He stood behind Nan Jifeng and said, "Don't be impulsive, this emperor doesn't believe Di Qing anymore, why don't you borrow a knife to kill people, so as not to expose us"

Nan Jifeng put his hands behind his back, looked at the statue of his father in the ancestral hall, and asked, "Uncle Wa has a clever plan." He didn't turn around.

The person who spoke, called Wa Pan, was higher in age than Nan Jifeng, but he was indeed the old department of Nong Zhigao, and his status was lower than that of Nan Jifeng, so although he heard Nan Jifeng call him uncle, he still respectfully said like this young master: "We are willing to follow the owner of the village and avenge the king of the south, but the owner of the village should not forget the art of war of the king of the south." Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Now that the imperial court has sent people to spy on Di Qing, we might as well use this opportunity to frame him. Now is the Lantern Festival, but you can order people to make lanterns and slander Di Qing to arrange the Lantern Festival. ”

Nan Jifeng nodded: "It's okay, since you create public opinion and give the court an excuse, you can do it." ”

Wa Pan immediately sent someone to make silk lanterns, but he didn't want to be disturbed by the king at the Lantern Festival, and when he heard what the moon said, he saw the beauty of the moon and made a plan to propose marriage: hijack the dowry and send it to frame Di Qing.

The village held a banquet to celebrate Di Qing's death, and Wa Pan said: "The owner of the village, how about continuing to send someone to arrest Di Qing's daughter and make a siege village?" ”

Nan Jifeng shook his head and said: "I have a deep enmity with him in the sea of blood, how can I marry his daughter." ”

Wa Pan advised: "On that day, the Song army drove our troops to extermination, and releasing this woman today is like letting a tiger return to the mountain." ”

While he was persuading, he heard that the bandits were coming, and a woman took a few officers and soldiers to kill them in a boat like a reed. Nan Jifeng slapped the table, "It's just right!" "Personally led a team of men and horses and rushed out.

The person who came was Liang Yuexia, and when he saw the two teams facing each other, the officers and soldiers saw the bandits coming out to fight, and they dispersed in a hurry. Even the officers and men of the same boat under the moon jumped into the water and fled. Under the moon was angry and wanted to rush over to the enemy, at this moment, a bamboo raft was quickly ushered in on the side, the bamboo raft was sandwiched between the bandits under the moon, waved the penny to sweep the bandits, and flew to the boat under the moon to point the moon down, and used the penny to support the boat in the opposite direction. The bandits are in the lake all the year round, and the pursuit speed is not slow, but the people who come are faster, and they will throw off the robbers far away after a while, and see that the boat is not going back to Wanqiu, but heading towards the west.

Besides, on Di Qing's mansion, Lu Shenyan and Rou'er easily persuaded Zhu Yuexia to settle Di Qing's future affairs first, and prepare to make peace with Rou'er, and go back to Bianjing to find the king under the moon, but they didn't look at it, and Yuexia recruited some soldiers from the mansion to kill Longhu. Even if there is some fist and foot kung fu under the moon, he must not be the opponent of the robbers, Lu Shenyan was in a hurry, and the officers and soldiers came back to report that Miss was arrested and did not know where to go.

The news of Di Qing's death has not yet been sent to the capital, Di Qing is not there, and this government office naturally does not leave them to live. Lu Shenyan became a housekeeper, and Di Qing's assets were all handed over to him to meet the expenses of the government, he calculated, although the dowry was suspected to be temporarily confiscated by robbers, although the silver spent on the Lantern Festival by Wang Pan was a lot, it was Wang Pan's private property.

Calculating that there were still two silver taels left, Lu Shenyan found a place to live in the city, leaving only one or two family slaves and maids, and the rest of the money was sent to be dismissed, leaving Rou'er to wait for the whereabouts of the moon, and he rushed to Bianjing with Di Qingling's card all the way.

When Lu Shenyan arrived at Kaifeng Mansion, his heart was so excited that his legs and feet no longer obeyed the call...... He Libo was on duty, and when he saw that a person almost climbed up to the high platform at the main gate of Kaifeng Mansion, it was just an important matter, and when he went up, he saw that it was Lu Shenyan.

Lu Shenyan cried when he saw He Libo, and said while crying: "Go find Gongzi, something happened to Chenzhou." ”

Wang Jian hurriedly came to the conference hall in the back hall of Kaifeng Mansion, and saw Di Qing's ranking on the desk, he had already guessed a few points in his heart, and after listening to Lord Bao, Lu Shenyan cried, and Bao Zheng didn't say a word. He looked at the king, his forehead was bruised, his eyes were staring, his eyes were sharp, his lips were closed, his hands were clenched into fists, and his chest was undulating.

Bao Zheng asked He Libo to take Lu Shenyan down to rest, and only he and Wang were left in the room.

All the grief and indignation turned silent, but the king didn't know who he hated, Di Qing's teachings were still in his ears, but this time he was framed by bandits, and now he is nowhere to be found under the moon.

His tense nerves caused his face to stiffen, could it be that I, a person hundreds of years later, couldn't even keep my teacher and wife? In these thousand years, man has been so powerless. He looked at Bao Zheng and said.

"Father-in-law, what should I do?"

It's just six words, and he didn't back down at all, helpless, but asked Bao Zheng again for an answer to how to stand on the court and how to forge ahead like a man to give himself a goal. Then how to bite from the back molars, word by word clearly collapsed.

Bao Zheng looked at him and said very calmly: "As a husband, if you can't do this, even if you love the people, it's useless." ”

The king said, "Does the righteous father mean to let the child endure? ”

Bao Zheng looked at Wang Bian, his eyes were firm, as Bao Zheng worried, this Di Qing's death was not the cause of one person, even if he couldn't bear it, he couldn't judge right and wrong, but Wang Bian and Di Qing had a deep relationship, and they were about to marry Di Qing's daughter, so they were depressed and indignant at this time. So he asked him, "

Do you have other ideas? ”

The king said, "Father-in-law, I want to lead troops to suppress bandits!" Seeing that Bao Zheng was still looking at him and waiting for him to say, he calmed down for a moment, and then he said: "Leading troops to suppress bandits can find the moon under the moon, and secondly, I will be famous as a teacher, and if I succeed, I can also raise my reputation." After all, Master Di is my mentor, and I can't sit idly by and forget my father's help to me. ”

Bao Zheng nodded: "Tomorrow, you and I will meet you and ask for your life!" ”
