Chapter 50: The Aftermath of Dried Salt
Today's second chapter, ask for a collection recommendation
-------------
Although the heavy rain in the first two days was not long, it was very rainy. The traces left by several battles in Guangling City, in a torrential rain, were washed into the sewers, except for the burned west city gate, it seems that they have long since left the people of Guangling. But the follow-up reaction caused by this battle has only just begun.
The day after the battle, the 8,000 army led by Mi Fang finally arrived at Guangling City. According to the method discussed by Zhang Fei and Tian Fan, the soldiers who surrendered to the Zhenrong Army were scattered and arranged. At that time, most of the soldiers were passive soldiers, who did they eat with? After two days of observation, they found that Liu Beijun's food was better than that of Zhenrongjun, and Liu Beijun's soldiers did not have the habit of bullying outsiders, and the generals treated them equally, so they were relieved to serve as soldiers in Liu Beijun.
The officers of the Rong Army, who commanded more than 100 people, were all temporarily detained. Tian Fan is ready to make a big show with them!
The wealth collected from the Zhenrong Mansion and the army is beyond everyone's imagination, everyone knows that he is rich, but they didn't expect him to be rich to this extent. Gold and silver, silk, silk silk, five baht money, preliminary statistics, about one billion yuan, equivalent to Xuzhou's peace years for two years of government revenue! And there are as many as fifty wives and concubines in his family! These people are not more than thirty years old, and they are in the prime of life, all of them were forcibly snatched by him in Xiapi and Guangling, and none of them are willing to stick up.
According to Zhang Fei's idea, all these women were sold as official prostitutes, but Tian Fan felt pitiful and unwilling. After asking about their family situation, those who were willing to go home were given money to go home, and those who were unwilling to go home or homeless, Tian Fan assigned them to the heroes in this battle. They were very satisfied with this way of handling, and except for two who were willing to go home, all the others stayed. Tian Fan rewarded these women to those heroes according to the size of their meritorious contributions in this battle. Anyway, no one cared about the second marriage at all in that era, on the contrary, these rewarded people were very happy, they were all bitter soldiers, and they might not be able to marry a daughter-in-law, but now it's good, the leader directly sent one, follow such a leader, hehe, it's really exciting!
On July 15, Liu Bei's order came. He first praised Tian Fan for his proper handling of randomly, agreed with Tian Fanxu's official position, and entrusted Tian Fan with full authority to deal with the matter after the battle. And Zhang Fei and Mifang stayed in Guangling temporarily, on the one hand, to stabilize the situation in Guangling, and on the other hand, to support Tian Fan's subsequent actions.
On July 16, three miles outside the east gate of Guangling, a high platform of five zhang high and about twenty zhang around was built. At this time, it was the first quarter of the morning, that is, a little after nine o'clock in the future, and there was already a sea of people outside the high platform. In the past few days, Tian Fan asked Zhao Yu to vigorously publicize that the verdict against Zhenrong and others would be announced on the high platform, and the people had been looking forward to this day for a long time, so they came early.
Tian Fan made this incident into the kind of public trial meeting in later generations, asking the onlookers to criticize Zhenrong and others, redress grievances if they are wronged, and take revenge if they have revenge. He melted into a hairless phoenix, and no one was afraid of him anymore, and one by one the people who usually didn't look at him threw stones and spat on him. None of the henchmen of Zhenrong had anything good, and they were also dealt with like this. The trial meeting lasted until the sun was about to set, and finally Ji Rong and more than 100 of his men were beheaded. Many people cried excitedly, this thing finally let God take it away!
Tian Fan tirelessly pampered propaganda and agitation, and when he spoke, he said at every turn, "Our lord Liu Xuande hates this kind of person the most!" "Our lord will not let go of the good bad guys!" "My father-in-law said that those who bully the people will end up!" and other sentences, blowing Liu Bei into the embodiment of justice. The results achieved by the public trial conference are also very satisfying! In the hearts of the people, such a concept has been formed, Liu Bei has become a good official who promotes justice, avenges the people's grievances, and a good lord who is the master of the people, which means that everything that opposes him is all bad people! …,
This is Tian Fan's purpose.
Under the high platform, in an inconspicuous corner, two inconspicuous people are chatting, and their voices are very small, even if there are people around, they can only hear "...... Tian Fan...... Winemaking...... Arrest him...... His Holiness ......" and other intermittent voices, not to mention that there was no one around them......
After the public trial, Tian Fan rushed to the place where the wounded soldiers were recuperating to visit them. Most of them were placed in a large courtyard in the middle of the city. This mansion is Xu Fu's other courtyard, although it is a courtyard, it is a grand scale, and it is usually a place for him to hoard salt and private soldiers, and temporarily lend it to Tian Fan for use. Wounded private soldiers from various families are also arranged here, which is convenient for unified management and treatment.
The wounded soldiers had long been familiar with Tian Fan, and when they saw him come in, they didn't get up, just said hello and called an adult. This is all requested by Tian Fan, and the wounded soldiers should have some privileges. It happened that Siyu was also there, and she was observing the recovery of the wounded soldiers with a few doctors. Seeing Tian Fan come in, she said to Tian Fan with some worry: "Boguang, the situation is a little bad!" Under Tian Fan's strong request, Qin Siyu finally changed Tian Fan's title. It's really the title of "Brother Tian Fan", it's too awkward!
Tian Fan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?" Bad recovery? Siyu shook his head, nodded again, and said: "They don't have much physical problems, but many people are not in a good mood and are very depressed!" Tian Fan knows that when he is depressed and in a bad mood, the recovery of the wound will be much slower. Tian Fan was a little puzzled, why was he depressed?
"What is the reason?"
Siyu shook his head and said, "I asked, but they didn't say!" It's useless to say it, I can't solve it! ”
Tian Fan couldn't help but be a little curious, he looked at the twenty or so injuries in this room, and sure enough, he found that a few of them seemed to have something on their minds and were not in a high mood. He walked over to one of them, who was very young, sixteen or seventeen years old. When he saw Tian Fan coming to him, he wanted to get up and salute, and was pressed by Tian Fan, Tian Fan said, "Don't get up!" What is your name? The soldier replied, "Report to the lord, the villain is called Erdan." ”
Tian Fan nodded and asked, "Erdan, where do you live?" "Adult, the villain lives in Hailing!"
"How many people are in the family?" "Report to the adult, the villain has an older brother and two younger sisters in the family!"
"Are your parents okay? How's the body? "Master Xie cares, my parents are in good health!"
……
Tian Fan talked to him for a long time, and between asking and answering, the somewhat restrained Erdan relaxed, and then asked, "Erdan, are you in a bad mood?" Erdan looked at Tian Fan and stopped talking. Tian Fan said: "Erdan, I see that you are younger than me, you are my brother, and the brothers can speak directly if they have something to say!" Do you understand? Erdan nodded movingly, and then said: "My lord, our family is going to be finished!" After saying that, I started crying! The depressed soldiers in the room listened and began to sob.
Tian Fan was depressed, and he persuaded: "Erdan, don't cry!" Men don't flick if they have tears, you can say anything! Let's all figure it out together, there is no bumpy road that can't be overcome! Erdan said with tears streaming down his face: "My lord! The villain heard about it...... Your Excellency provides cheaper salt to the salt merchants in Guangling, and our family is in the business of boiling salt......" Pointing to a few weeping soldiers, he said, "They are the same! After saying that, he began to cry again.
After saying a few words, Tian Fan was stupid, and he made them depressed by co-authoring! Erdan pulled Tian Fan's sleeve and begged Ken: "My lord, please save my family!" You must have a way, woo woo woo ......" Several other wounded soldiers who were boiling salt at home also opened their mouths to beg for help, and for a while, the cries of "woo woo ......" and the begging of "adults, save our ......" filled Tian Fan's ears. …,
Tian Fan was so depressed that he thought he had done a good deed, but he became like this, and he actually cut off the way of life for no less than 100,000 people...... It's really touching the whole body!
But on the outside, Tian Fan couldn't see that he was depressed at all, he laughed and said loudly: "What else should I do!" That's what got you guys like this? Haha, don't worry, I have a way! When the two of them heard this, they came to their senses and hurriedly asked, "What's the solution?" Tian Fan shook his head mysteriously and said, "Haha, I can't say it!" The mountain people have their own tricks! You can rest assured that your injuries will heal, and when your injuries are healed, I am afraid that my method will also be effective! Hehe, don't worry, I, Tian Fan, won't lie to you! Hearing him say this, several wounded soldiers were all happy.
Tian Fan went out, and he didn't have the heart to see other wounded soldiers, and there were still 100,000 and 200,000 people waiting to figure out a way for himself! Siyu chased after him and asked, "Do you really have a way?" Tian Fan looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, he shook his head and said, "I'm not an immortal, where is the way?" Just to comfort them! Hey, no, I've got to find a way to go. By the way, are you done? Siyu nodded and said, "It's done, what?" Want to try my cooking again? Tian Fan nodded and said, "Go to your place, while eating the dishes you cooked, I think about ......"
Siyu's craftsmanship is very good, Tian Fan can't forget it after trying it once, and he always goes to her house every once in a while to eat.
Tian Fan sent Tian Hu and a few people to go back first, and only took Hui'er to follow Siyu to her house.
This is a small courtyard, divided into an outer room and an inner room, there is a small courtyard in the middle, the whole courtyard is very simple to decorate, it can be seen that Siyu is not a person who pays attention to enjoyment. The outer room is where the patient comes to see the patient, and the inner room is where she rests. There is a kitchen in the small courtyard in the middle where the dishes are usually cooked. There are two old mothers and a maid in the family, and other than that, there are no superfluous people.
The little girl's name is Xing'er, she is a very delicate girl, about twelve or thirteen years old, and she smiles very sweetly. In her eyes, Tian Fan is a big man, but this big man doesn't look down on her, and greets her with a smile every time they meet. This made her very happy, as if she had been recognized by others, so every time she saw Tian Fan coming, she was busy serving.
Tian Fan sat behind the small table, quietly thinking about things, and Siyu, Hui'er and Xing'er went to prepare the meal. When Hui'er first saw Siyu, because of Tian Fan's relationship, she didn't like her. But after a period of contact, I don't know if Siyu's personality charm or Hui'er's mood has changed, anyway, the relationship between the two has become like sisters.
