Cai Jiuyi was angry with him, but now seeing him admit defeat in public, he didn't want to humiliate him anymore, so he offended him and accepted the funeral nail, but Ru Chengming took him around, grabbed his shoulders, and raised his hands above the top to throw it. Everyone exclaimed, such a stout man threw no less than a thousand catties, wouldn't Cai Jiuyi's thin body fall apart? Cai Jiuyi was not panicked, and secretly used the kung fu of a thousand catties to stabilize his body, and then bent his arm to shoot like electricity, reversed his five fingers, buckled his hands and veins, secretly used internal force, twisted and twisted, Ru Chengming suddenly felt that his arms were sore, his whole body was stiff, and his huge body was lifted by Cai Jiuyi. Between the electric light and flint, the shape and position were shifted up and down, and everyone was embarrassed to see it, and applauded in unison.

Just approaching the unitary, the Ningzhou Mansion was already very lively, Zhizhou Sunday Qiang had already set up a colorful shed, invited the local famous Qin opera troupe, large and small officials sat around, listened to the play and drank to celebrate. Yang He sat in the center, Shen Yikui, Liu Jin, and Liu Hongru also sat at the main table, and on Sunday, as the landlord, he accompanied Wu Hongqi and Fan Li, and the others were scattered around like the stars holding the moon. With a smiling face, the head of the class ran to the main table to ask the master to order a play, Yang He shook his hand and said: "I don't know any local opera, I can't make jokes when I order it randomly?" Today, since it is a celebration of Shen Yikui and the others for their submission to the imperial court, let them order it at will! ”

Shen Yikui and his dead brother Shen Yiyuan were both border soldiers in Yansui Town, and the etiquette in the army was generally known, so how dare they trespass casually, so they hurriedly bowed and said: "It should be the Lord of the Military Gate." Sunday Qiang and others also hurriedly agreed. Yang He took the big red play list and asked, "Is there a martial arts?" ”

The class leader pointed out: "This line is titled the Three Kingdoms, the Yang Family General, and the Yue Family General." ”

"Let's order this one!"

""Cutting a Single Child"?" The class owner seemed to be taken aback, Shen Yikui and the others heard a chop, and their complexions also changed, but fortunately, the lights flickered on and off, Yang He didn't understand what the repertoire meant, and his eyes never left the playlist. The head of the class bowed down and retreated, the gongs and drums, and the bangzi suddenly sounded, and after a while, a big man with a red flower face came out with an iron lance, dancing and singing, and then several teams of people rushed out and surrounded him to fight. Yang He didn't know what to do, he looked patiently, half a meal, stood up, and thought that he must be going to be convenient, so he personally carried a lantern to lead the way in front, and Hong Chengchou on the side hurriedly walked over and said: "Zhou Fuzun, you sit firmly at the main table and accompany everyone to watch the play, and I will accompany the military gate." ”

Yang He finished going to the toilet, looked at Hong Chengchou who was waiting outside and said: "Heng Jiu, my ears are almost deaf, I really didn't expect there to be such a noisy scene!" ”

Hong Chengchou said: "Not long after the adults came to Shaanxi, I think they are used to hearing the seventeen or eighteen-year-old little woman in the south of the Yangtze River holding a red tooth board, singing willows and willows three times that the willow shore is dawning and waning the moon. ”

Yang He laughed and asked: "I don't know what kind of play "Chopping Single Child" is? ”

"My lord is worried about the grave, and those barnyard officials and wild history of Lao Shizi think that they have never had a purpose. This drama tells the story of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the brave general Shan Xiongxin refused to submit to Li Shimin, rode alone into the Tang camp, and after being captured, he was willing to die by the neck, and refused to surrender. ”

"Alas! I really don't know what destiny is. Yang He shook his head and hurried to the front yard. Hong Chengchou followed a few steps and asked in a low voice, "My lord thinks these thieves are really obedient to the imperial court?" ”

"Don't you worry about God?" Yang He stopped his steps.

"The humble party only saw it clearly, the adults ordered "Cutting Single Child", Shen Yikui, Liu Jin and others showed panicked faces, and their expressions were uneasy, presumably they had a ghost in their hearts, not really descended."

Yang He twisted his beard and said: "I haven't seen any backlash at the moment, I don't want to be too suspicious, so I force them to rebel again." In fact, Wang Zuohang, you shouldn't kill him, fortunately, there is no way to prevent the overall situation, otherwise ......"

"I think that to quell the rebellion in the northwest, it is necessary to get rid of its roots, otherwise it will not be a long-term law and order policy." Hong Chengchou knew that Yang He was not to blame, he was bold, looked around at no one, and whispered: "Shen Yikui is actually the same as Wang Zuojiao, both are tough and brutal, and their nature is capricious, so I can't believe him." Such a grateful, greedy villain, when he was desperate, had no choice but to submit to the court, obviously not convinced. Now that he has surrendered and the thief capital has gathered, it is a God-given opportunity, it is better to take advantage of the drunken time to make a decision immediately. ”

"You're going to ......," Yang He made a slashing gesture.

"It's too late to arrange today, but there will be another banquet in the coming day, invite Shen Yikui and others to the banquet, and there will be a hundred swords and axes around him.

"Nonsense! Let them unload their armor and return to the peasants, support themselves, and save the court a lot of burden in the future! Otherwise, when will it be a head? ”

"Disbanding and installing is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, and it is difficult to do it without enough money. Adults think twice, now many villages are full of mounds and ruins, and thousands of them are homeless, homeless and foodless, how can they live? ”

Yang He glanced at Hong Chengchou and said unhappily: "You can't kill them all!" Besides, the gods have been approved by the emperor for their obedience, and it is not good to change them. If the headquarters cannot be honest with those who come to surrender, how can it establish its prestige, and will it not block the way to obedience? I have my own opinions, and you don't need to say more. ”

Seeing that he was about to reach the hanging flower gate on the left, Hong Chengchou had to persuade again: "My lord, God is a murderer, his evil deeds are notorious, and people and gods are angry, so the only way to kill him is to thank the world." This matter should not be delayed, and the early picture is above. If you have doubts, delay for a long time, and change suddenly, what is the point of regret? As soon as the words fell, Liu Jin and Liu Hongru both greeted them and smiled together: "The master of the military gate has been gone for a long time, my brother ...... No, no, it's because the guard brother can't rest assured, and orders the two of us to come and serve. ”

Yang He smiled and stepped into the front yard, but heard someone shouting: "Stop, don't sing this bad bird drama again!" But when he saw a big man at the banquet next to the main table, he smashed the wine glass on the ground with a snap, and stepped on the stool with one thick leg, and kept scolding. The servant on the stage was so frightened that he turned around and ran back to the backstage, and the head of the class hurriedly came out and bowed: "This is ordered by the master of the military gate himself, the uncle doesn't like to listen to it, and he is patient." ”

"Pap, pap" twice, the big man shook his hands and mouths, and scolded: "Damn, that Shan Xiongxin is a good man in our Shaanxi, killing the rich and helping the poor, what a hero, why do you want to kill him?" ”

The class owner knew that the big man had the intention to find fault, and he was shocked, and stammered: "Uncle, uncle, this drama has been like this since the ancestor and grandfather of the villain, no wonder the villain." Where and where is the villain so bold and bold...... If you step on ants, you're afraid of your feet! The conscience of heaven and earth ......" swears by fingers.

Wu Hongqi looked at Zhou Qiang, saw that he was still unmoving, raised his glass, sighed, and laughed: "Hero, hum!" What hero? But if you are reckless and don't know where your destiny is, how can you not be swords? ”

"Isn't it? It's right to say it's a bear. Fan Li smiled and agreed.

"Damn, are you bullying us Shaanxi people?" The big man kicked the stool, stepped forward and raised his fist to hit, Wu Hongqi and Fan Li were caught off guard, and they were punched a few times early, and the two shouted and shouted to draw their swords to cut, but they were held by the big man with one hand and couldn't move. The two of them couldn't stop scolding, Shen Yikui had already caught a glimpse of Yang He entering the front yard, pretending not to know, and reprimanded: "Ru Chengming, don't eat if you can't eat, don't eat if you can't eat, pour a few glasses and be crazy, take the opportunity to make trouble, we have lost all our faces by you, don't hurry up and apologize to the two masters!" ”

Ru Chengming rolled his strange eyes, let go of the two and pushed them gently, Wu Hongqi and Fan Li couldn't hold it, and reached out to support the table before they fell, but the pots, cups, plates and chopsticks on the table clanged chaotically, and they looked very embarrassed. The two were ashamed and secretly resentful. Ru Chengming laughed and said, "Make a bird gift!" It's useless to carry my shoes like this! What did you do to serve as a general and a Chinese army, but you gave me a small boss, I was already unconvinced in my heart, and I apologized to them? I'm not afraid of flashing my waist, but I'm also afraid of breaking their life! ”

Yang He saw that he was brave and abnormal, and he was a little admired in his heart, but when he heard that no one in his eyes slandered the court officials, he suddenly felt displeased, paced over, and sneered: "If you rely on a little brute force, you will become a hero?" If you beat the officials of the court, you can't. In the green forest, the word righteousness comes first, in front of the big master, if there is no one around, roaring and feasting, it is meaningless. A person like you who is unrighteous is worthy of what kind of hero? keeps saying that he is upset for Shan Xiongxin, but what he does is a stupid thing that a three-year-old child disdains to do, don't you laugh and shame the heroes and heroes of the world? ”

Ru Chengming didn't expect that Yang He, a thin old man, who was smiling like a Buddha on weekdays, would have such an awe-inspiring bearing, and he was speechless for a while, and only after a while did he say ruthlessly: "No need to talk about heroes, as long as you win my fists, I will be convinced." ”

"It's easy." Cai Jiuyi's legs didn't move much, but her body slid behind Ru Chengming like a ghost, and pressed a palm on his hand and said: "This funeral nail in my hand has been soaked in crane top red, and it is extremely poisonous, as long as you move a little, it will pierce your flesh and skin, and you will see blood seal your throat." If you don't want to die, you can punch yourself twice and shout twice I'll obey. ”

Ru Chengming was willing to be controlled by others, seeing that Cai Jiuyi was much thinner than himself, he tried his best to break free, but the hand under his head was like an iron cast, like a shadow, unable to dodge half a cent, knowing that he met a master, he had to bang himself two punches, thinking that he was used to punching without sparing any effort, and in anger, he forgot that he hit his own body, and he actually used all his strength, grinning in pain, and his expression was extremely funny. Cai Jiuyi was angry with him, but now seeing him admit defeat in public, he didn't want to humiliate him anymore, so he offended him and accepted the funeral nail, but Ru Chengming took him around, grabbed his shoulders, and raised his hands above the top to throw it. Everyone exclaimed, such a stout man threw no less than a thousand catties, wouldn't Cai Jiuyi's thin body fall apart? Cai Jiuyi was not panicked, and secretly used the kung fu of a thousand catties to stabilize his body, and then bent his arm to shoot like electricity, reversed his five fingers, buckled his hands and veins, secretly used internal force, twisted and twisted, Ru Chengming suddenly felt that his arms were sore, his whole body was stiff, and his huge body was lifted by Cai Jiuyi. Between the electric light and flint, the shape and position were shifted up and down, and everyone was embarrassed to see it, and applauded in unison. Yang He stopped talking, and everyone re-seated and started the gong to listen to the play. Ru Chengming returned to his seat dejectedly and buried his head in drinking.

At the second watch, the banquet was dispersed. The night breeze is mighty, blowing the fragrance of flowers and plants, Yang He's spirit is invigorated, looking at the starry sky in the distance, the boundless Milky Way is like a long belt hanging obliquely in the sky, the stars are brilliant, the sky is like washing, the wide clothes are sitting, and people are called to Hong Chengchou. The candle shadow swayed, the water vapor curled, and the two lowered their heads to taste tea, neither of them was in a hurry to speak. Yang He put down the blue and white tea cup and asked, "Hengjiu, what did you pay attention to at today's banquet?" ”

"God's talent and virtue don't seem to be enough to convince the public, I think it's because of his brother's residual power that he can sit on the top spot."

"Hmmm! That Liu Jin and Liu Hongru really convinced him, but Ru Chengming, as well as the two leaders at the same table, Zhang Mengjin and Huang Youcai, had a lot of contempt and grievances, thinking that they looked down on him or didn't want to submit to him. That being the case, the main department has a two-handed fighting technique to induce them to kill each other, but it does not save us a lot of energy? It is not against the will of God. Just to borrow your personal guard. ”

"But it's up to the adults to drive it." Hong Chengchou saw that he refused to say more, it was a matter of confidentiality, and he didn't dare to ask rashly, but he seemed to be moved by his own persuasion, and he thought of dealing with Shen Yikui and others, and his heart was secretly happy.

"You teach him to come tomorrow and listen to the errand. Du Wenhuan you keep an eye on it a little more, he has repeatedly hindered the overall situation, and only thinks about personal grievances, hum...... Watch out for him dragging you down! ”

"Despicable provinces. His temper is a little shorter, but in his heart he is concerned about state affairs, and today's affairs, presumably the enemy will be anxious at first sight......"

"Well---- you don't have to defend him. The headquarters can use him, and naturally they can not use him. Yang He sneered and reached out to touch the tea bowl, Hong Chengchou saw it, and hurriedly got up and retired. Yang He got up and said, "I know that you have the heart to do a career, and you are unwilling to live under others for a long time." Although you and I say that there are contradictions in our minds from time to time, we still need to use you to govern Shaanxi. Rest assured, Motobu will not treat you badly. Hong Chengchou couldn't figure out for a while whether he was sincere in praise, or because he thought his edge was too exposed, so he didn't know how to answer, and he didn't dare to say anything. The governor walked in the dark night when he suddenly heard the sound of a babbling harp in the distance. He has been in Qin for several years, and he can hear that it is the tone of Banhu, and I don't know who is still so interested in it late at night. The night hung down like a dark cloth, and it seemed empty and deep and solemn. The sound of the piano whimpered, sometimes soothing and sometimes urgent, or desolate and mournful, or happy and lingering, Hong Chengchou suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted, and tears fell down......

The spring cold is still heavy, and the red Luo charcoal fire in the warm pavilion is hot and dry, which makes people sleepy.

Since the Houjin soldiers retreated to Liaodong, Yuan Chonghuan Ling died late, Chongzhen often felt that Baizao was gathered when he sat alone, and all kinds of things came: the Houjin soldiers did not know when to attack again, and Liaodong lacked good generals; The people of Shaanxi have risen up, and there is no time for peace; The Jiangnan Restoration Society is gaining momentum, discussing the government and politics, and criticizing the evils of the times...... Although Yuan Chonghuan's case has been concluded, he never thought that it would involve such a huge and wide range, and in the past six months, the cabinet ministers have changed three of them. In the days when the monarch and the ministers got along, the three of them had no choice but to go to work, and he felt very pity. Han Yi was old and serious, and he had the intention to break the disadvantages of his friends, but in the end, he ended up displeasing to both parties, and he and Qian Longxi were implicated by Yuan Chonghuan, how many people did he lose popularity? Even if I still reuse it, will you be able to settle for yourself? The bureaucrats are secretly unconvinced, can I still count on you? Cheng Jiming has been the first assistant for a few days, but he has a clear posture and doesn't know how to be flexible. Alas! He thought of Yuan Chonghuan again, in fact, he was still a rare general, but it was not easy to buy military equipment again and again, so he offended so many colleagues. The capital was the first to be burned by the army, and a large number of the manor of the emperor Qi Guiwan were destroyed in a burn, so that he was detained in prison for half a year, and none of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty pleaded for him, and I felt embarrassed even if I pardoned him. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yuan Chonghuan's head quietly disappeared, and within a few days, the fan of Dongchang found out that it was Yuan Chonghuan's servant She Yishi, taking advantage of the dark clouds to cover the moon, and buried the head in the Guangdong Yiyuan in the Guangqu Gate, and built a grass house to guard. Buried and buried, it's a good thing. In fact, he still has a grudge in his heart, Huang Taiji actually besieged my capital, such a shame and humiliation, it is really shameful and angry.

Chongzhen looked through the flower window of the East Warm Pavilion to see that the sky outside was still a little hazy, lazily leaned back on the wide dragon chair and fell asleep, and saw the vicious battle outside the Guangqu Gate in the haze, the sound of killing shook the sky, and he shook his body in shock, and woke up when he woke up, but saw Cao Huachun hurriedly coming in from the outside and shouted: "Long live the lord, but there is something to call the slave?" ”

Chongzhen stretched out his hand and touched it, his head was covered with sweat, and he covered up: "Twist a hand towel!" Cao Huachun hurriedly wrung the warm wet hand towel and handed it over, waited for Chongzhen to wipe it, and asked with a smile: "Long live the lord, dare this red Luo charcoal burn hot?" Slaves and maids beating the curtains? ”

Chongzhen said: "It's a little hot, and the curtain is not busy playing." Is there something going on out there? ”

"Just now, the old man of Zhou Ge ordered someone to send a few excerpts and abridgements, and the slave maid didn't dare to disturb when she saw that the long-lived lord was napping. Will you see it now? ”

"Present it!" Chongzhen purified his face, his spirit was lifted, and he took a closer look at the excerpts of the Gongbi transcription: Sun Chengzong of Liaodong discussed the construction of the Daling River to prepare for war, and Yang He of Shaanxi recommended Hong Chengchou as the governor of Yansui, and the Ministry of Rites invited the Spring Emperor to take the scholars...... There was a faint feeling of unhappiness in my heart, these concerts are extremely important matters, and they must not be written as abridged, so I pressed the abridgement, raised my eyes and said: "Xiao Chunzi, order the cabinet to present the original recital!" ”

"Long live the lord, the slave maid sent the decree to the cabinet, and Zhou Ge Lao also estimated that the long live lord wanted to see the original, and asked the slave and maid to play on his behalf, and the cabinet of those recitals has not yet had a vote, so it was written as an abridgement."

"Oh!" Chongzhen was stunned, "Please come Mr. Zhou." Although he didn't want the ministers and workers to figure out the intentions and flatter, he only appreciated Zhou Yanru's carefulness, and he was most afraid of being a powerful minister who was good at it. The first time I saw Zhou Yanru, I was amazed that this person was excellent in appearance, and he talked elegantly, and immediately gave birth to the idea that all the holy lords must have very auxiliary ministers, Zhou Yanru took the opportunity to promote from the Ministry of Rites to the East Pavilion University Scholar, and participated in the secret, and soon, Han Yi, Qian Longxi, and Cheng Ji went to work one after another, and Zhou Yanru jumped to become the first assistant. Zhou Yanru followed Cao Huachun into the hall, knelt on the red tweed mat that had already been paved, kowtowed, and said, "Minister Zhou Yanru respectfully invites Sheng'an." The minister has not seen the emperor for a few days, and the emperor's heroic appearance is still better than in the past. ”

"The gentleman came and sat down. I have a few things to ask today. A small chamberlain hurriedly moved the pestle over, Zhou Yanru sat down, and replied: "The minister is frightened, and he doesn't dare to ask for advice." ”

"The abridged mention of the construction of the city by the Daling River, the promotion of Hong Chengchou, and the opening of the Chunfu branch are not clear, why don't you see the original of the cabinet vote?"

"The minister also has the heart to play the emperor. In the first two cases, in recent days, the ministers summoned the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet Meeting, and the soldiers Liang Tingdong strongly advocated the construction of the city and garrison, but it cost 30,000 taels of silver to build the city, and the Ministry of Households has been in deficit, and it is difficult to raise funds, so that it is difficult to hesitate. ”

"Is this matter?"

"The Great Ling River was called the White Wolf Water in ancient times, and later it was also called the Dragon Water, Ling Shui, and it was not until our dynasty that it was changed to this name. Both sides of the Daling River are mostly high mountains and mountains, if the city is built here, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Jinzhou can be blocked. Sun Gaoyang was ordered to go out on a tour of the eastern part of the country, and when he saw the ruins and dilapidated walls of the Daling River, he made a joint name with Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong. According to the Liaodong spy cavalry flying report, the Houjin Emperor Taiji has the intention of attacking Jinzhou, if the city is not repaired, the Houjin Iron Cavalry can go straight to Jinzhou City. Zhou Yanru recited it with his eyes, summarized the essence of everyone's excerpts, and talked eloquently.

Chongzhen's face suddenly became solemn, and the matter involved Houjin, so he felt extremely harsh when he heard it, and nodded: "I mean to build a city, and you will order the household department to think about the silver." It's not that I'm reluctant, but I'm worried that this case will be repeated and my hand will be too much. At this time, the waiter served tea, Chongzhen took a bite, and then said: "Do you know Hong Chengchou?" ”

"The minister knows a thing or two. This person is a native of Nan'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian, a Jinshi in the forty-fourth year of Wanli, and has been the director of the Criminal Department, the director of the two Zhejiang Provinces, and the counselor of the Shaanxi Grain Road in the seventh year of the Apocalypse. ”

"Yang He recommended him to be the governor of Yansui, what does Mr. think?"

"This ......" Zhou Yanru's eyes secretly swept over Chongzhen, and he didn't see any clues, and thought for a moment: "Hong Chengchou is a knife and pen official, who can relieve the siege of Hancheng, and recently designed to kill Wang Zuohang, but he is a talent, but he was suddenly promoted from the fourth-grade grain road to the second-grade governor, which is indeed a little fast, and he is afraid of attracting things." ”

"Shaanxi is in urgent need of such talents, and the times create heroes, so there is no need to hesitate."
