The crowd of onlookers saw that the soldier did not scold him, and he couldn't help but be a little more emboldened, and one of them actually asked a soldier: "This big brother, I don't know what the platform here is for?" ”

The soldier who was asked grinned, but shook his head and did not answer. The man was disappointed, but didn't dare to ask again.

The crowd was again talking, but the conversation turned to the usefulness of the high platform. There are all kinds of things to say, and some people even pulled out that it was used by the martial arts competition, but as soon as these words came out, they were ridiculed by the crowd.

It was nearly noon, and when it was time for lunch, the crowd gradually dispersed and went to lunch. A new squad of soldiers arrived, replacing the ones who were also hungry.

When the two teams staggered, the leader of the team said, "Hey, this stage is really fast!" The leader who was about to leave said, "Yes, these workers said that it would be half an hour later, and they will leave after they have finished." ”

"Brother, do you know what the adults are doing here?"

"How do I know what an adult thinks?"

“……”

“……”

One morning, the city of Yangzhou seemed to be quiet, quiet and a little weird, but there were really no disturbing "violent and terrorist" incidents.

After lunchtime, the streets gradually became more crowded, although it was still not as good as in the past few days, but it was a big change compared to the morning.

The shops along the street also opened their doors, and some of the men inside began to shout and solicit business again.

As soon as they met, they couldn't help mentioning last night's events and asking each other if they knew each other.

After a long time, gossip will fly all over the sky, but it is not far from the truth, the people recognized, the most widely circulated saying is: Yesterday Yangzhou came to a big official, this big official is very powerful, micro service private visits, found a lot of evidence of corruption of Yangzhou officials, so overnight sent troops to arrest, the current prefect is no longer Han prefect, but Su Zizhan Su prefect......

Su Shi has a very good reputation among the people, and after the people heard that the current prefect was Su Shi, the hesitation and fear in their hearts disappeared in an instant.

Since last night's soldiers were aimed at those officials, then it has nothing to do with the small people, since it has nothing to do, what is there to worry about?

As soon as this thought arose in the hearts of the people, the number of pedestrians on the street became more and more angry, and there was no abnormality at all.

On a restaurant across the street from the prefect's yamen, two people stood behind the window and looked out, and the high platform at the entrance of the yamen across the street had been built. The onlookers gathered more and more for the people, and whoever thought with his heels knew that something big would happen here, but since it had nothing to do with the people, the people would inevitably come to see the excitement.

Shen Kuo stood beside Su Shi and said, "Brother Zizhan is really talented, this hand is really wonderful. ”

The two people in the restaurant are Su Shi and Shen Kuo. Su Shi smiled when he heard this, and said, "I have said it in the middle." His brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "I don't know what the Lord of the Forest Sect is doing with this high platform!" ”

Shen Kuo said: "Zizhan doesn't know, and I don't know." ”

Both of them were puzzled.

Suddenly, I heard a fast horse galloping on the east side of the street, and when I arrived, I stopped downstairs, and immediately the soldiers got off the horse and entered the restaurant.

One of the several soldiers and warriors who protected Su Shi and Shen Kuo opened the door, and the soldier came in and saluted, "I've seen Lord Su and Lord Shen." ”

Su Shi said a word of forgiveness and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The soldier said: "Lord Lin is here, send his subordinates to spread the word......"

Su Shi said: "But what are the instructions?" ”

The soldier said this and that.

As soon as the soldiers finished talking, Su Shi and Shen Kuo were both shocked, not wanting Lin Tian to play such a trick. The two glanced at each other, and the words were terrifying, and Jiefu Ke was destroyed by everyone's money.

About half an hour later, Su Shi looked at the sun, and the hour was already less than three quarters. There was a faint commotion on the east side of the street.

Shen Kuo said: "The master of the forest gate is here. Su Shi nodded and said, "Let's go down!" ”

…………………………………………………………………………………

Lin Tian rode on a tall horse, carrying the sword of the Son of Heaven at his waist, mighty and extraordinary, Wang Anshi and Qiao Feng each rode a horse on the left and right. They were followed by thousands of soldiers, and among them were the nearly 100 captured officials, all of whom had their arms tied behind their backs, and their mouths were stuffed with all kinds of things, rags, stinky socks, and rotten clothes......

They were disheveled, dirty, and wore a large sign around their necks.

The Song Dynasty emphasized literature and light martial arts, and there was a saying that "good iron does not hit nails, and good men should not be soldiers", on the other hand, Song Zhenzong made a "Encouragement of Learning": "Rich families don't need to buy good land, there are thousands of bells in the book." There is no need to raise a hall to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book. Don't hate unscrupulous matchmakers when marrying a wife, there is Yan Ruyu in the book. Don't hate to go out with no one, there are many cars and horses in the book. The boy wants to fulfill his life's aspirations, and reads the Pentateuch to the window. ”

Therefore, while folk readers are quite respected, everyone is also proud of being literate and reading. This Yangzhou city was originally a place of literary style, even if it was a small number of people, there were not a few literate people.

The sign was written in pig blood: "*** greedy for silver **** taels".

The land of Yangzhou is fertile, the economy is prosperous, and the people's lives are not as cruel as they imagined, but everything in this world is afraid of comparison, a comparison, there will be differences, and as soon as there is a difference, the mind will be lively.

The small people lost their fields, entered the city, and lived by selling their labor under the fence, although there was about a thousand wen in a month, but the city had to pay money for eating, drinking, lazing and sleeping, and the ancients had the tradition of having many children and grandchildren, and if a family wanted to live, they had to tighten their belts, and when they sold their labor, they were more "industrious".

As soon as they saw that the sign said how many taels of silver they had embezzled, they couldn't help but feel hatred, and they were so powerful that there were people with a heart who couldn't be aware of it, and they were even more indignant. If you are angry, rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves will inevitably fly all over the sky.

Lin Tian sat on the horse with the corners of his mouth proud, ignoring it, as if he didn't know. Wang Anshi felt a little unorthodox, and frowned slightly, although they are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, they are also scholars, and it is really ...... to treat scholars like this It's really insulting!!

It's just that for some reason, this Wang Xiangye also faintly rose with happiness in his heart.

He turned his head to look at Lin Tian and thought: Could it be that he secretly instructed this?

Qiao Feng was a little red-faced, his chest was full of pride, and his eyes were full of excitement, "The great man of chivalry is for the country and the people." Eradicating the parasites of corruption is for the benefit of the world! Lin Tian's words echoed in his ears......
