Chapter 142: The Imperial Court Recruits Peace
When Shi Jin entered the city, the city had already calmed down.
When the people saw that there were no soldiers and horses fighting in the city, they all came to the street to see the soldiers and horses of Liangshan.
"The one who wears gold armor is King Shi, who is really kind and smiling all the time."
"The man holding the flag is so tall."
"yes, I'm afraid it's not a foot high."
Surrounded by his own soldiers, Shi came to the yamen.
Lin Chong and the others had already heard the news and went outside to greet them.
Shi Jin got off the horse, saw that Li Kui was wrapped in bandages, walked up to him, and asked, "How is Tie Niu's injury?" ”
Li Kui grinned and said, "Don't worry, I was slashed by a birdman, and I hacked that guy to death with an axe." ”
Shi Jin nodded and said, "Well, don't be careless, let the military doctor take a look later." ”
Now there are two groups of people in each battalion who have learned simple methods such as hemostasis and debridement, and the army is also equipped with some sterilized bandages, alcohol and other substances, but there are few doctors on the mountain, and there is only one doctor in the Chinese army on Shi Jin's way.
Li Kui shook his head and said, "It's not deep, don't bother." ”
Shi Jin glared at Li Kui and said, "If you don't let the doctor see it, I'll send you back to the cottage." ”
When Li Kui heard this, he hurriedly nodded and said, "Then let's see, I finally went down the mountain, and I haven't turned around yet." ”
Shi Jin asked the others again, but none of the others were injured.
Li Kui rushed too hard, and the others were not in a hurry to rescue him, so he was slashed.
Only one of the minions who seized the city gate was stabbed to death by Gong Wang with a flying spear, one was shot to the point and lost his life, and the remaining dozen or so who were hit by arrows did not matter.
Only two people were defeated, and Dongchang Mansion was defeated, which can be said to be a big victory.
Everyone walked into the yamen with a smile. A few minions drove Zhang Qing, Gong Wang, and Ding Desun to the side and stood.
Shi Jin came in, and when he saw the three of them, he stopped. He arched his hand and said, "How do you call the three?" ”
Lin Chong did not let the three of them be tied up.
Zhang Qing saw that Shi Jin treated him politely, so he also arched his hand and said, "I am Zhang Qing." ”
Gong Wang and Ding Desun also followed Zhang Qing to report their names.
Shi Jin arched his hand and said: "I have heard the names of the three generals for a long time, and I am fortunate to see them today." If you are offended, please do not care. ”
Zhang Qingdao: "How can the leader treat the captured people like this?" ”
Shi Jin said solemnly: "Don't hide it, I heard that General Zhang was beating people with flying stones, and he hit every shot." General Gong's flying spear and General Ding's flying fork are also unique, so they dare to ask the three generals to go up the mountain to be a leader. Of course, if the three generals refuse, I will never force it. So he sent the three generals out. The inconvenience caused by the attack on the city by the cottage is also forgiven by the three. ”
Lin Chong also said: "Now that the world is turbid, the three of them are officials in the court, so it is better to be happy with us for the way of heaven." ”
Zhang Qing thought about it just now. It is a big sin to let the Liangshan thieves break the city. If he is a civil official and is released by Liang Shan, he can be said to be a clean official, but he is a military general, and if he is released by Liang Shan, he will have a lot of suspicions, and he will not be taken to blame.
Liangshan is the way of heaven and is quite famous.
Zhang Qing already has the heart to take refuge. Seeing that Shi Jin was so upright, he arched his hand and said: "I can be so valued by Leader Shi." Zhang Qing is willing to serve. ”
When Gong Wang and Ding Desun heard this, they also descended together.
Shi Jin saw the three of them surrender and said happily: "Okay, it is also a blessing for the cottage to have three generals join the gang." Let's talk to the back. ”
Later, Shi Jin saw that Gong Wang was wounded by an arrow, so he asked people to take him down and ask the military doctor to treat him together.
Shi Jin chatted with Zhang Qing for a few words, and then talked about the situation in the city.
The prefect of Dongchang Mansion is a rare honest official, and there are relatively few corrupt officials and inferior gentry in the city.
Although the prefect is a clean official, but now that the world is dark, and there are many royal relatives and nobles, he can't be many lords.
After talking about the situation of the officials for a while, Zhang Qing said: "There is a veterinarian in this city, whose surname is Huangfu, and his name is duan. This person is good at horses, knows the symptoms of cold and heat in the head and mouth, and uses medicinal needles to cure all of them, and he really has the talent of Bole. It was originally a Youzhou people's clan; Because of his blue eyes and yellow beard, he looks like a man, and he is called a purple-haired uncle. The cottage is also useful elsewhere, and this person can be called to take his wife and children up the mountain together. ”
Shi Jin said with a smile: "There are nearly 10,000 copycat war horses, and such talents are needed." Lu Fang, you go for a walk, so you can invite him to come, don't offend. ”
"Yes."
Lu Fang, who had been standing behind Shi Jin, responded to the order and wanted to go out.
Zhang Qing saw that Shi Jin trusted him so much, so he also said: "I have some friendship with Huangfuduan, and I am willing to go with this brother and invite him to come." ”
Shi Jin nodded and said, "Then there is General Lao Zhang." ”
Zhang Qing and Lu Fang didn't go for a long time, and then they brought the emperor.
Shi Jin saw that they had brought people, so he got up to meet them.
When all the leaders saw Shi Jin get up, they all stood up.
Li Kui saw Huangfu's blue eyes and heavy pupils, and his purple hair was over his abdomen, and said with a smile: "This person looks similar to Brother Li Yun." ”
Shi Jin saw the salute and invited the emperor to take a seat.
Huangfu Duan was originally a native of Liao, and only because he offended the powerful in Liao, he came to the Great Song Dynasty to take refuge.
It's just that the Great Song Dynasty is rich, and the people are a little proud, and he is a person who settles down, so he naturally has to suffer from some idleness on weekdays.
Now seeing that the world-famous Shi Jin treated him so politely, he was very happy in his heart, and immediately expressed his willingness to go to Liangshan.
Shi Jin spent another two days working hard for the heavens, and after killing all the corrupt officials and gentry in the city and within a radius of dozens of miles, he packed up his cart and returned to the mountain for food, gold and silver.
After Xiao Jiasui's soldiers and horses heard Shi Jin's division in Dongping Mansion, they also led the troops back to the mountain.
The soldiers and horses of the two routes obtained more than 3 million pieces of money and grain and a lot of armor from Dongping Mansion and Dongchang Mansion, and then they were ready to resist the enemy's imperial army.
It is said that Gao Yu learned the news that Liangshan had attacked Dongping Mansion and Dongchang Mansion again, so he was sick at home and did not dare to go to the court, lest the Son of Heaven remember that he wanted to lead his troops to exterminate Liangshan in the winter before last, and as a result, he mobilized 100,000 troops to fold for a while, and deduced that he would lead his troops to fight after the spring of the next year.
Only said that the emperor was in the early dynasty, and it was the three quiet whips that sounded the imperial que, and the two classes of civil and military columns were golden ranks.
The head of the hall shouted: "If you have something to do with the morning play, there is nothing to roll up the curtain and retreat." ”
The secretary of the Jinju Yuan came out of the class and said: "The documents of Dongping Mansion and Dongchang Mansion were collected in the courtier's courtyard, and the Liangshan thieves beat them in two places. Looting warehouses, looting warehouses, and killing soldiers and civilians. Greed is not enough, and everywhere you go, no one is invincible. If you don't arrest it early, it will become a big trouble in the future. ”
This Tianzi was not confused, thought about it, and said: "I remember that this Liangshan thief has made trouble a few times, and he has sent the Privy Council to enter the army many times before. Why haven't you exterminated them yet? ”
Some of the ministers remember Gao Yu's leading of the troops, and some don't remember, who wants to talk more at this time.
Emperor Daojun saw that no one spoke. Then he looked at the privy envoy Tong Guan and said, "Who led the troops to exterminate Liangshan last time?" ”
Tong Guan couldn't hide, so he went out and said: "Back to the emperor, if the minister is not mistaken, it should be Captain Gao who led the troops to the battle." ”
Emperor Daojun also remembered. Nodding his head, he said, "I remember that he sent troops in winter. It is said that it is a small fold for a while, and it is not good to use soldiers in winter, and I will go again in the spring of the next year. ”
As he spoke, he saw that the position where Gao Yu was standing was vacant, so he asked, "Where is Gao Qing?" ”
"Captain Gao is sick at home."
Although Gao Yu is a palace marshal, he is an official who relies on the emperor's favor, and he also knows his ability, and he spends most of his time flattering the emperor on weekdays. lest you lose your grace.
Yesterday, Gao Yu was still playing with the emperor.
Emperor Daojun heard that he was taking leave today, and he also knew that most of them were avoiding him to blame. Thinking of Gao Yu's "hard work", he didn't ask much, and said: "Since Gao Qing is sick, which Aiqing can lead the troops to exterminate the Liangshan bandits?" ”
Liangshan is famous all over the world, and the Chinese martial arts of the dynasty all know that Gao Li led an army of 100,000 to be defeated by Liangshan, and many military generals were broken, who dared to take this errand.
For a time, the needle drop in the hall could be heard.
Emperor Daojun looked at it once, and when he saw that no one came out, he said unhappily: "Isn't there anyone worried about me?" ”
Cui Jing, the imperial historian, saw that no one dared to lead the troops to the battle, so he went out and said: "The minister heard that Liangshan killed the officials and the people under the banner of acting for the heavens, which is the art of Yao people. Once the people are convinced, they must not increase their troops. With the foolishness of the ministers, these outlaws in the mountains are all guilty of official punishment, and there is no way to avoid it, so they gather in the mountains and forests, and they are unruly. If a Dan edict is lowered, Guanglu Temple will be awarded to the imperial wine treasure, and a minister will be sent until Liangshanbo, with good words and soothing advice, and Zhao'an will come to surrender, or he can contribute to the country. His Majesty the Holy Treasure. ”
The emperor saw that no one was willing to go on the expedition, so he could only nod and say, "What Qing said is very appropriate, and it is exactly what I want." ”
Although Cai Jing hated Liang Shan, he did not obstruct Zhao'an.
When the Liangshan thief Kou arrived in the court, it would be easier for him to send it down.
At that moment, the emperor sent Chen Zongshan, the former lieutenant of the palace, as an envoy, and went to recruit the people of Liangshan Bo.
It was in the middle of the Japanese dynasty that Mrs. Chen received the edict, returned to the mansion, packed up, and many people came to congratulate him.
While he was talking, he saw that the officials of the Taishi Mansion came to invite him and said, "The Taishi invited the Taiwei to speak." ”
Chen Zongshan got on the sedan chair until he got off the sedan chair in front of the Taishi's Mansion on New Songmen Street, and the cadres went straight into the academy in the festival hall, saw the Taishi, and sat down on the side.
The tea soup was over, and Taishi Cai asked: "The Son of Heaven sent you to Liangshan Bo Zhao'an, and I would like to ask you to know: don't lose the discipline of the imperial court and mess up the law of the country when you get there." You have heard that there is a cloud in the "Analects": It is shameful to do oneself, to be in all directions, and not to dishonor the king's life, which can be described as a contemplation. ”
Chen Taiwei said: "Zongshan knows everything, and Master Cheng advises." ”
Cai Jing said again: "I asked this cadre to go with you." He saved a lot of laws, and he was afraid that you would not see anywhere, so he raised them with you. ”
Chen Taiwei said: "I am deeply grateful for your kindness. ”
resigned from the Taishi, led the cadres, left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and went home in a sedan chair.
Just after resting, the doorman came to report, and Gao Dianshuai dismounted.
Chen Taiwei hurriedly came out to greet him, please sit down in the hall, and after asking about the cold temperature, Gao Taiwei said: "Today, the imperial court is discussing the matter of recruiting the Liangshan bandits, if Gao Yu is included, it will definitely be blocked." This thief humiliated the court and committed heinous crimes, and now he will pardon the criminals and introduce them into the capital, which will become a trouble. If you want to wait for the echo, the jade sound has come out, and it depends on the general idea. If this thief still ignores his conscience and neglects the holy decree, the Taiwei will return to Beijing early, and he will not play the Son of Heaven, and then order the army, go to the other side in person, and cut the grass and eradicate the roots, which is my wish. The Taiwei is here, and the subordinate has a waiting, who can speak quickly, ask one answer and answer ten, so as to discuss things with the Taiwei. ”
Although Taiwei Chen knew that Gao Yu and Liang Shan had a grudge and was afraid that he would get in the way, Gao Yu was a favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, and he didn't dare to offend, so he could only thank: "I feel that the palace marshal is worried." ”
Gao Yu got up, and Mrs. Chen was sent to the front of the house and got on the horse. (To be continued......)
