These guards are all seasoned and battle-hardened people selected from the army, how can they be comparable to those characters that Lu Xingxing usually encounters. Although he is good at martial arts, when he encounters such a guard, he can be taken down by only three or five. Now that he has been captured, he is allowed to struggle in every way, but where can he break free.

A guard had already brought a basin of warm water and splashed it on Lu Xingxing's face, and the originally yellow face gradually became dark, and the skin of both temples was curled, looking very disgusting.

The young man who spoke at first waved his hand: "Help him wash his face!" ”

The guards opened their big rough hands and unceremoniously rubbed Lu Xingxing's face a few times, and actually dropped a mask as thin as a cicada's wings. When Cheng Zhijie saw it, he immediately gritted his teeth and shouted: "Lu Xingxing, you are a traitor!" There are also today! ”

Seeing that his deeds were revealed, Lu Xingxing was also single, raised a black face, stared at the young man, and said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask this brother with a high surname, he can actually see through Lu's disguise technique!" ”

The handsome queen sneered: "How can you know my sister's name and surname!" This little carving insect skill dares to get an axe in front of my sister! ”

"You're a woman!" Lu Xingxing was stunned. Just now, this handsome young student opened his mouth to speak, and then his daughter's body was exposed. But the young man's voice was no different from that of a man, and this disguise technique was simply impeccable, and he lost unjustly.

The young man also turned into a female voice: "Sister, it's you who show off." ”

The handsome posterior squeezed his eyes at Liu Ziqiu: "Our sisters helped you catch Lu Xingxing, how do you reward us?" ”

Liu Ziqiu smiled and whispered in her ear: "It's not easy to get a reward, tonight, it's a little more tiring for your husband!" ”

When the two of them heard this, they immediately blushed, and it turned out that these two people were Gao Xiu'er and Tuoba Qianyu. Gao Xiu'er was originally proficient in the art of disguise, and she learned the unique skill of disguising herself as a man from Hua Yun, and even people like Liu Ziqiu, who lived with her all day long, could hardly see the flaws. When Nalu Xingxing first heard Gao Xiu'er ask about the things in Luoyang Fang, he panicked, but his face was indifferent, which was caused by his disguise. is also disguised, Gao Xiu'er and Tuoba Qianyu felt ashamed in their hearts, and red clouds appeared on their faces, which looked very natural. Compared with the two, the judgment is made at a higher level.

……

executed Lu Xingxing, and the Dangshan thieves were completely destroyed, which means that the remnants of Lu Mingyue's party have disappeared since then. Liu Ziqiu did not rest at night, and asked Yu Shinan to draft a few documents and send them to Luoyang overnight, because this time he cleared the two thieves in Dangshan and Yushan, and he found that there were some signs of bad things in the army.

In terms of combat quality, there is no problem, and the main problem lies in military discipline. The first is that many soldiers often speak ill of the people, treating themselves as high lords. The second is to casually accept the reward of the local squire, and even eat invitations. Third, there are some people like Shu Zhengqing who are not satisfied with the military.

These signs are just the beginning of the day, and they are not serious in reality. But the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an anthill. If we don't take precautions, it will inevitably lead to catastrophe in the future. Another point is that the army before he crossed over was able to achieve many brilliant achievements in adversity because of the magic weapon of the military and civilians. Liu Ziqiu really wanted to build his army into a subordinate army. Of course, in this era, people's thinking is very different from that of later generations, and he cannot achieve it overnight, but can only be subtly guided through various policies. And finding a problem and solving a problem is also a subtle method for him.

Regarding the three signs found above, Liu Ziqiu's handling opinions are also very simple. In the first case, he demanded that all the soldiers must do one day of work every month for the people in the garrison. In the second case, anyone who finds that he has taken something from the squire or the common people will be deducted twice from the salary. The third situation is more humane, allowing soldiers to resign from the military on their own initiative, and those who are willing to participate in the imperial examination can also report from the army, and the imperial court will also give preferential treatment.

In fact, the purpose of the third treatment is to let the soldiers read more and learn more culture. Culture is a very ethereal thing, and it seems to be of little use in warfare. However, with the culture of the soldiers, Liu Ziqiu was able to easily instill some of his own ideas and build the army into what he expected. It's a long process, but Liu Ziqiu will work in this direction.

……

Early the next morning, the three official ships pulled up their sails and left Xiayi to continue southward. This journey has been much smoother. The documents of the imperial court had already spread to all parts along the canal, and these migrant workers who had been forcibly gathered by Yang Guang in the early years were naturally overjoyed when they received the news. Along the way, it can already be seen that many river workers have begun to dredging and dredging the canal, and when encountering sharp bends and shallow water, some river workers have taken the initiative to help pull the fiber. Their wages were paid by the imperial court, which reduced the burden on the ships on the canal. At the same time, the smooth passage of the canal also brought prosperity to the economy along the river, and at the same time brought a large amount of tax revenue to the imperial court. Over time, a win-win situation will inevitably be formed.

Seeing that the policy mentioned in the document was really implemented, Cheng Zhijie finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, he has thrown himself into Liu Ziqiu, and he has gradually started to think about entering the court. If he wants to achieve this goal, he can only take the "lady route", for this reason, Shi Huiniang has begged Gao Xiu'er several times, but Liu Ziqiu has not let go.

The fleet moved slowly, and after half a month, it finally arrived in Jiangdu. It is said that Yang Guang built the Grand Canal in order to visit the Xingjiang capital. Now that Yang Guang is dead, there is no way to confirm this rumor. However, after the canal was repaired, Yang Guang did come to Jiangdu once. Today, the Jiangdu Palace has been destroyed in the war, and only the willows along the Slender West Lake are still fluttering in the wind. Seeing all this, Liu Ziqiu couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly remembered one thing: "When Li Jing attacked Jiangdu, Wang Shichong didn't know where he fell?" ”

Gao Xiu'er thought for a while and said, "The concubine heard Sister Huayun say that Wang Shichong ran fast at the beginning, saying that he was going to vote for Li Yuan. ”

Liu Ziqiu groaned: "When I conquered Luoyang, I didn't find Wang Shichong among Li Yuan's subordinates. This person is also a generation of heroes, if he is allowed to wander outside, it will be a disaster. ”

Gao Xiu'er persuaded: "Maybe he has already died in the chaos, so don't worry about it." ”

Liu Ziqiu nodded and said, "It's almost time to get to Jiangnan, and I think of one more thing." Back then, Wang Shichong and Xiao Dapeng colluded with each other, intending to bring disaster to the family, maybe Xiao Dapeng could know his whereabouts, and he would have to be tried again after he went back. ”

Gao Xiu'er sighed and said, "You also promised the second uncle that you would take care of Xiao Dapeng. If it is decided today, Xiao Dapeng will not dare to have the slightest objection in the future, doesn't the husband plan to let him go? ”

Liu Ziqiu waved his hand: "If it weren't for the sake of the second uncle, the ten Xiao Dapeng would have died." Forget it, since you intercede for him, I will pardon him once. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Thanks." Gao Xiuer couldn't bear the Xiao family's break, and she was overjoyed when she heard it.

Liu Ziqiu frowned and said, "I will cross the river tomorrow, if you really want to thank me, help me think of a way, how to persuade Miss Xie." ”

Gao Xiu'er shook her head and said, "Whoever does the evil, whoever solves it by himself, I won't help you." ”

Liu Ziqiu smiled: "Actually, it's not to help me." Miss Xie is also your cousin, so you can't bear to let her be a green lamp ancient Buddha and accompany her for a lifetime? ”

The corners of Gao Xiu'er's mouth turned up slightly: "Of course I can't bear it." But I believe in my husband even more, he even fought the country, and he can't deal with a little girl? ”

Liu Ziqiu was speechless for a moment, looked at the south and sighed.

……

On another day, the fleet sailed across the Yangtze River and docked outside Danyang City. This time it was a private matter to go to the Xie family, Liu Ziqiu only brought Gao Xiu'er's mother and son and a dozen guards, and even Tuoba Qianyu and Mu Duoli stayed on the ship.

Not being able to go with Liu Ziqiu, Tuoba Qianyu was full of unhappiness, pursed her lips, and said, "Mu Duoli, do you say that Miss Xie is beautiful?" Let Brother come all the way to Jiangnan for her. ”

Mu Duoli didn't have Tuoba Qianyu's careful eyes, she felt that she was lucky to have today, and her only regret was that she couldn't conceive Liu Ziqiu's child. Therefore, Mu Duoli's state of mind was much more relaxed, she smiled faintly and said, "That's natural, haven't you seen her two brothers?" I heard that Miss Xie is much more beautiful than her brother! ”

Xie Zhiwen and Xie Zhiwu brothers are rare handsome offspring, Mu Duoli directly compared them with girls, which shows how good their appearance is, otherwise how can they be easily tempted by being as proud as Qin Fengqin. If that Miss Xie was more beautiful than her two brothers, she couldn't compare to herself, Tuoba Qianyu couldn't help but sigh.

After Liu Ziqiu landed on the shore, he changed to light horses, and galloped all the way to Moling Town.

Although it has been in turmoil for many years, with the protection of the Changshan Army, Moling Town has not been affected in any way, and it is still the same as it was back then. The Xie family's compound, which occupies a quarter of Moling Town, is still deserted, and no idle people dare to stay here. Therefore, as soon as Liu Ziqiu and the others appeared, they were discovered by the family guarding the door. However, seeing that Liu Ziqiu and the others were all freshly dressed and angry, the family members didn't dare to make a mistake, so they politely stepped forward and asked, "I don't know where you came from?" ”

Liu Ziqiu arched his hand on the horse: "Please inform Old Man Xie, just say that Liu Ziqiu came to visit!" ”

These family members are just subordinates, and they usually only care about three meals a day, and they don't know what happened back then. It's just that Liu Ziqiu naturally revealed a kind of majesty, which made them dare not slack off in the slightest, and hurried back to report.

Xie Yun's father and son have been in Beijing for some days, and they have not come back yet, Xie Wengshan can't help but be a little worried, after all, Xie Wengda had colluded with Wang Shichong back then, intending to mistreat Changshan Village. Now that Liu Ziqiu has become the emperor and rules the world, who knows if he will be moody and want to take the Xie family?
