Xie Shence and Wang Jiehua's wedding date is set for three months later.

That is, August 2nd.

This period will be the busiest three months for Xie Shence.

Talking about Wutang, Taihang Mountain bandits, Zheng Keming, the marriage of the eldest sister, and his own marriage.

It's all in one place. Thank you for being tired and not tired, busy but methodical, and happily enjoying the last three months of single life.

After receiving the report of Miyu yesterday, Xie Shence immediately entered the palace and reported to Emperor Jin.

It is true that Li Huaijing did not write that book, but it has nothing to do with Li Huaijing himself.

Here's the thing, Mi Yu found out that the book was ghostwritten by Li Huaijing's wife's uncle. It was only because Li Huaijing was infected with the wind cold that day, so he dictated it and asked his master, that is, his wife's uncle, to write it for him.

Ghostwriting such a big thing is naturally done by henchmen. However, things were not what he imagined, and his brother-in-law was the one he could trust. His brother-in-law didn't let him look at it and send it out after he wrote it. Although the handwriting on the book is very similar, the deliberately whitewashed content cannot hide its unreasonableness, so Lin Lingsi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, put him into his sleeve at the first glance of seeing this book, and then brought it to Emperor Jin.

Emperor Jin listened to Xie Shence's report and said, "Has the true identity of the master been clarified?" ”

Xie Shence replied: "I have already figured it out, although the master is Li Huaijing's brother-in-law, he ...... in his early years He once served under the old lady of the Zheng family. ”

"The old lady of the Zheng family?" Emperor Jin wondered.

"It is the old lady Zheng of the Zheng family who is now Zhishi, that is, the third uncle of Zheng Shangshu's own family."

Emperor Jin was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "This is strange, could it be that the Zheng family is also among them?" ”

Xie Shence bowed his head and replied, "At this point, the minister can't come up with any evidence to prove yes or no. But the minister has a matter to report to His Majesty. ”

"Say."

"Two days ago, there was a brawl in Kyoto, because a Beijing official slandered the martial arts hall, saying that it was not with the untouchables, but it was beaten by a group of people, and several people were killed. This matter is already being investigated by Kyoto Prefecture. Interestingly, one of the two parties involved in this fight is a disciple of the Tao family in Xuzhou, the Tao family and the Zheng family in Xingyang...... I happen to have in-laws. ”

Emperor Jin raised his eyebrows with interest.

Xie Shence continued: "However, what is even more interesting is that when Tiqi was investigating this letter, someone actually came out to make trouble. And the troublemakers are also a bunch of people. Based on the time coincidence, the minister guessed...... The people involved in these two events should be the same people. The minister has already asked Tiqi to investigate, and there will be results within ten days. ”

Emperor Jin thought for a while, then rubbed his chin with his right hand and said: "The Beijing official was beaten by the people in Beijing, hehe, this matter, the people ...... It can't be done, it can only be a horse bandit or a bandit, and the horse bandit is far away in Shandong, north of Jinyang...... Look into this matter carefully. ”

Xie Shence could hear Emperor Jin's tone, and then look at Emperor Jin's demeanor, he knew that Emperor Jin had roughly guessed the reason for the matter, and since the goal had been achieved, he arched his hand and said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Later, Emperor Jin instructed Xie Shence to arrange for Ti to ride to Kaifeng Mansion and beat Li Huaijing to make his eyes brighter. There are also things about the local reaction to the martial arts hall, thank Shence one by one, and then leave the palace.

After that, Xie Shence returned to the Tiqi Division and discussed with Zhou Jinmian how to talk about how Wutang could gain support throughout the Great Jin Dynasty.

"First of all, public opinion. The first batch of horsemen who were sent out had already replied, and the performance in most places was still expected. The martial arts hall is relatively popular among the people, but the government will have some disgust, and the local county will definitely be dissatisfied. In some places, the Tiqi sent out to propagate were captured or directly expelled, so as to prevent the people from being affected, and also to facilitate them to make trouble in the future by taking advantage of the 'public opinion'. ”

Zhou Jinmian listened to Xie Shence's words, opened his official uniform slightly, and then said: "The most fierce opposition, that is, the few places where people are arrested, are mainly concentrated in Huaiyang Road and our Henan Province, and Guanlong, Shanxi Province, is relatively calm. Generally speaking, if you only rely on storytelling and merchant propaganda to build momentum, you can no longer meet the needs of the situation, and you need to select some of the small scholars who agree with the martial arts and martial arts to take the lead accordingly. Otherwise, it will depend on the people...... It really doesn't make much difference. ”

"You're right, the unorganized people, to put it bluntly, are a plate of loose sand, if you want to unite them, you must add water and mud, and then tamp it. In this way, it can be molded and strong. Xie Shence said as he tapped his index finger on the table.

"Those little warriors are water, their numbers are huge, and they are not afraid of some county lords when they are united. And because it is more involved with the bottom, it can best drive the people to rise up and build momentum. However, in order to make the little scholars obedient, they must taste the sweetness. ”

Xie Shence continued: "You can do these things. These people must be on our side. The more those county wang families rebounded, the more they wanted His Majesty to know, and to let His Majesty know how many people were against him, and how many people were bad for the foundation of the Great Jin. The more these people toss, the more they can make His Majesty firm in his determination to open a martial arts hall and practice martial arts. Therefore, in some places, just let it go, the surname Tian of the Great Jin Dynasty has been two hundred years, even if these people can cover the sky in one state, they will never be able to go against the general trend. ”

Zhou Jinmian said with a smile: "There is resistance, Your Majesty knows who the current Dajin is in the hearts of those people, and it has not allowed Your Majesty to carry all the pressure on his body, so that the Tiqi Division can let go and do it." Only in this way can Your Majesty really break some things and truly make a way for the people to survive. ”

After a pause, Zhou Jinmian said in a low voice: "Lord Admiral, I don't know if this is a good way to change something, but since I see hope, I will do it." ”

Xie Shence thought for a while and said, "This is a way, but of course, it is not the best way. Martial arts and martial arts are only a measure to strengthen the country and the army, and they are the most indispensable step today. After all, countries compete for hegemony. The most important thing now is to accumulate a strong national power and wage war. Only when there is reunification can we be qualified to say that it is for the people. If there is no great unification, what is the use of the joy of the people of a nation? ”

"I understand what you say......" Zhou Jinmian said in a low voice.

Looking at the light surging in Zhou Jinmian's lowered eyes, Xie Shence sighed, so he didn't say anything more.

On the third day, that is, on May 5, some Tiqi reported to Xie Shence about the situation of the Taihang Mountain bandits.

The bandits seem to be in a predicament.

Because of the Handan tragedy that year, it seems that there were some problems within the bandits.

Although Emperor Jin failed to use force against the bandits in Taihang Mountain, there were still secret divisions and blows from blockade and cavalry. Because of Wei Liao's previous negligence, Emperor Jin's face was gloomy, so the suppression and assassination of the bandits in Taihang Mountain was still hard worked on Ti Qi at that time.

Therefore, the bandits of Taihang Mountain and the Tiqi are not in a mutually exclusive relationship. This is also the reason why Xie Shence was jointly encircled and suppressed by the beehive of Yuchizi Erli in Taihang Mountain last year, and he did not enter the deep mountains when he was killed.

Due to the blockade of Emperor Jin, some people were forced to split out under great pressure from the imperial court, which made Yan Jiegang the de facto leader of Baiyan Cottage. After clearing all the forces of the leader of the life-saving benefactor, Yan Jiegang killed him with a trick, and then blamed other cottages, used troops against other cottages, integrated some people again, and restored his strength.

But in the past two years, due to the frequent wars and natural disasters of the Great Jin Dynasty, the bandits on Taihang Mountain have also fallen into a difficult situation. After all, ordinary people will not live well to be bandits, and if ordinary people starve to death in pieces, the life of bandits will only be even worse.

So the food crisis arose.

In the general environment of food shortage, even if there is a black road in the mountains, willing to spend silver, not much food can be obtained from the outside.

The number of victims has increased, and their ranks have grown, but correspondingly, the contradiction between population and food has become more acute.

For this reason, the bandits in Taihang Mountain have died a lot. The prestige of Yan Jiegang's big boss is also declining. Although his prestige had declined, and no one could threaten his position, he had realized that if he continued like this, he would sooner or later be killed and replaced by someone like the big boss of the past.

Yan Jiegang is aware of the harm caused by blind expansion and is actively looking for solutions.

It was impossible for him to cut off the people he had in his hands.

As soon as you are reluctant, one more person will have more strength, and everyone is very important in Taihang Mountain, where fire and blood are commonplace. Second, it is impossible and dare not do this, people take refuge in you, it means that you have strength, in order to follow you to eat a bite of food, if you drive people away, it means that you can't do it, you don't have the strength to fight righteousness, how will you mix in the future?

So Yan Jiegang could only find a way to get food.

At the beginning, they robbed the surrounding cottages, and after the surrounding villages were robbed, the surrounding villages were robbed, and the towns without city walls were robbed...... The only way to buy it is to find a way. It's just that in today's situation, grabbing still can't solve the problem, and it's even more difficult to buy.

Although the bandits are difficult, although the conditions are poor, they are rich, they are really rich. Yan Jiegang has been a thief for ten years, and he knows best how much gold and silver there is in the cottage, so after obtaining the consent of several powerful subordinates, he began to pretend to be a merchant and buy and sell with others.

However, the situation is more difficult than they thought. Due to the shortage of food, the imperial court has ordered that the grain be included in the embargo list, and military control is implemented. Text, those who carry more than eight buckets of grain without permission will be charged to the army. In such a situation, Yan Jiekun and others can't buy food even if they have money.

The official documents are to verify their identity, they are thieves and black households, and they can't pass the first identity check. Not to mention the destinations and uses of the back. Moreover, in this world, even if you pay double the price, who would dare to sell it to you! Huai Shang and Jin Shang are not vegetarians, and there are Ti Qi Si staring at it.

So money, sometimes, is not everything.

(PS: Well, how to say it, it's a little depressing, let's talk to the authors in the group today, more than 700,000 words are not on the shelves, it's a bit sad, and the crotch is very melancholy, and it's cold.)

But the first book, I also know. There must be shortcomings, and the gods can't avoid flaws, let alone me. Flies are self-aware, they know that their skills are not enough, I really hope that some friends can put forward some opinions, flies are easy to correct, written well, everyone can read it cool, right?

So I really hope you can talk about the characters, the plot? Going, cool? It's even a trick, it's okay, as long as you say it, I'll watch it carefully.

A few days ago, a reader talked about the question of table words and peanut time, and I really answered it seriously, and I felt really happy at that time, because someone read my book seriously! Thank you so much to him! Well, if you don't believe me, you can read the book review.

So I really need everyone's voice, criticism and encouragement, as long as you say it, I will take it seriously. After all, writing a novel, although it is out of interest at the beginning, if it cannot be recognized by readers and cannot gain some evaluation, it is a failure.

Here, I can only write harder and heartily to thank you!

In addition, there is a kind author who said that he saw Baidu's "Troubled Times", very moved, although there are only two people, a few posts, but really moved, if you are interested, you can go shopping, there are more people, it will be lively. By the way, that author's masterpiece is called "The Golden Little Scholar", which is the most recognized by me in this kind of novel, except for Jia Ding. If you are interested, you may wish to take a look.

After talking so much gossip, anyway, if you don't want money, everyone will be a passer-by and talk nonsense. ~。 ~Not much to say, there is more to come~)
