So how to characterize Song Guanglan is really a little unclear, you can't just judge it on the surface of things. According to Song Guanglan himself to Dayong, he was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and when he heard that the official army was attacking Dengzhou, he immediately conspired with the former Dengzhou government and county officials who surrendered to the rebels to open the official army in the city, so they were meritorious, very meritorious, if it weren't for them, Dengzhou might not have been recovered by the official army so easily.

Dayong naturally doesn't believe in this kind of rhetoric, and he won't ignore it, in his opinion, this kind of rhetoric is definitely comparable to the "wall grass". However, the Jinzhou army has more than enough battles, but it is not possible to govern the place, and it is really not good to help the local snake to help rectify it when he first arrives. For the sake of stability in Dengzhou, Dayong took an expedient measure - to cooperate with these demoted officials. Otherwise, he could only send his generals who could only kill people to serve as civil affairs officials, so he was afraid that when Dengzhou City was neutral, he would not be able to make peace when Dengzhou City was neutral.

In order to settle down in Dengzhou as soon as possible, Dayong decided to cooperate with Song Guanglan and other demoted officials, not only allocated 200 people to temporarily serve as the errand of Dengzhou Prefecture, but also gave them tens of thousands of taels of silver as funds.

Song Guanglan and the others did a good job, at least, during the period when Dayong led his troops to Laizhou, all the affairs in Dengzhou City were handled by them in an orderly manner, and they were able to dispatch a batch of food supplies to the front, which was really praised by Dayong.

When Dayong returned to Dengzhou with tens of thousands of rebels, these officials, who had already been removed from the Ming Dynasty, had an even heavier task. Not only did they have to carry out Dayong's order to concentrate the people in the territory to move to Dengzhou, but they also had to be responsible for the task of distributing relief grain, and in addition, they had to count the shortage of land and tools needed for the tuntian, and they also had to maintain law and order in the city.

It's really embarrassing for them, you have to know how much pressure they have in their hearts when these officials are trying their best to manage the errands that Da Yong has confessed, but they are worried about whether their heads can be saved.

Jian Jun Dao Wang Zheng is a hard-working person, this hard-working person does not mean that he has been poor since he was a child, studied hard in the cold window, has a widowed mother, and has been oppressed by his neighbors since he was a child, but that he is unlucky. He was indeed unlucky, he ranked first in the imperial examination in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, and he was ranked eleventh in the second class, according to the convention, he should have entered the Hanlin Academy, and he should have entered the science and technology at the same time, but he was directly released out of Beijing as a magistrate.

In the Ming generation, most of the cabinet bachelors came out of the Hanlin Academy, and the six important ministers also had the experience of the Hanlin Academy, so the world said that although the Hanlin Academy was a noble yamen, as long as you enter, there will always be a day to emerge in the future, and if you are lucky enough, you will have to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future. Although Nakedao is a little worse than the Hanlin Academy, it is also good for the Metropolitan Procuratorate, or the six departments are good in the matter, and they are done well, often a single bullet seal can change a person's fate, and the reputation is great, and the governor's patrol is not a wishful thinking, and it is also a shortcut to get ahead for officials who are born in Jinshi. It's a pity that Wang Hui's fate is really bad, and the eleventh of the second and eleventh most unexpectedly can't enter the Hanlin Academy, Kedao also enters, and the directors of the six departments can't take their turn, so they are directly released out of Jingdangzhi County, or placed in an inferior county in Shandong. This is really a bolt from the blue for Wang Hui, who is in the top two and eleventh places.

There are always unwilling people in the world, but those who are enterprising will not be satisfied with the existing environment, and always want to climb up to make their lives better. This Wang Hui is a restless person. When he was the magistrate of the county, he did everything better than his colleagues, his official reputation was quite good, and the year-end assessment of the officials was also up every year, and the province and the government also praised him a lot. In this way, under his continuous hard work, with his excellent political achievements, he finally took off the seven-grade official uniform, first changed into the six-grade Tongzhi robe, and then changed into the five-grade superintendent road green robe, and became the third member in Denglai after Governor Sun Yuanhua and Denglai Dao Song Guanglan.

Denglai Governor Yamen is a new establishment, but it is an important town, tied to the lifeblood of the Ming military town outside the Guan, and carries the Dongjiang Islands, which has a role in the Dongyu, so although it only governs two prefectures, the imperial court attaches great importance to it. At the beginning, Governor Sun Yuanhua said that if he wanted to train the army, he would train the army, if he wanted to buy artillery, he would buy artillery, and if he wanted to recruit soldiers, he would recruit soldiers. If you ask for silver, the court will give it; If you want someone, the court will also give it. In a word, as long as Sun Yuanhua reports to the imperial court, the imperial court is not allowed. With such a delegation of power, even the officials with Denglai have become prominent.

Wang Hui, the superintendent of the army, is even more high-spirited, and he does his best to do his best, looking forward to one day being able to be promoted to the governor of other provinces by virtue of Denglai's merits, and then become a feudal official, so that he can live up to the suffering of ten years of cold windows, and glorify his ancestors. Unexpectedly, the heavens played a joke with him, but when he was soaring, thunder sounded on the ground, and Kong Youde rebelled!

Except for those officials who would rather die than surrender, most of the officials in Denglai defected under the threat of the rebel butcher's knife and turned into the upstart of Denglai under the control of the Generalissimo Li Jiucheng's office.

Wang Hui didn't want to surrender, he also wanted to kill himself and become a benevolent, and he had all his honor, but when it came to the end, the rope couldn't be put around his neck. Coupled with the hard persuasion of Song Guanglan and others, Wang Hui still didn't get through the hurdle in his heart - gritted his teeth and lowered.

From a court official to a chaotic minister and thief, this blow was fatal to Wang Hui, no matter how much he spared his life, it was impossible for him to change his role in an instant, and follow the rebels with all his heart, so for a long time, although Wang Hui accepted the position of Deng Leibu political envoy granted to him by Li Jiucheng, he was at home every day to drink to eliminate his sorrows. This drunkenness ended until the Jinzhou army broke through the Dengzhou side.

When he opened the city gate and saw the banner of the official army, Wang Hui had both ups and downs in his heart, and it was really mixed feelings, and it was difficult to speak. Also in the same complicated mood as him are the prefect Wu Weicheng, the same as the prefect Jia Mingjie, the county magistrate Song Cheng and others.

Remorse, guilt, and eagerness to atone for their sins are the common feelings of the original officials in Dengzhou City at the moment. Song Guanglan led a group of "adults" to ask to see Dayong more than once, but every time they were shirked by Dayong with busy official duties, as long as they were at ease to do business, don't think about anything else.

It's a matter of family life, how many people can be free? Dayong said lightly, but these adults didn't dare to believe it. was originally suspicious of Dayong's sentence "The day the thief is rebellious, it is the day you will see the sun and the moon again", but now seeing that Dayong ignores them, everyone is even more bottomless.

After asking to see three times in a row, Song Guanglan and they finally got their wish to see Dayong, and before they could ask Dayong first when they had promised them to prove their merits to the court anyway, Dayong spoke first, and he said: "What do you think in your hearts, Ben Jiang knows the Dao, if you want to say that the Ben General doesn't know the Dao, it must be foolish." But what Ben will say now, you will not be sure in your hearts, you will always see the will of the court, so that you can feel at ease. So Ben Jiang doesn't want to say anything more to you, Ben just wants to say to you, apostasy is not terrible, I am afraid that I will not repent. The so-called change when you know your mistakes, the good is great, you have taken a wrong step before, but this will never be wrong. As long as you do everything that the general commands, the general will give you the words to stack here, and the court will never ask for your head. As for whether you can still be an official here, it depends on you. In my Jinzhou army, you have always been rewarded for meritorious service, and punished for mistakes, if you have merit, you will naturally ask the court for reward; If so, it is forgivable. Do you understand? ”
