"Six years of Zhongping, it's really eventful......"

In front of a wooden sign in the center of Xiangting Street, Gao Heng finally figured out the specific time in this Eastern Han Dynasty. On the wooden plaque, a sea fishing document just sent from the Yingyin County Government was written in ink, chasing several fugitives who had committed major crimes, and the names of Xiaolongshan Yellow Turban thieves Zhang Cai and Daniel Zhang were impressive.

The ink is still fresh, apparently just finished.

The time on the document is the seventh day of the fourth month of the sixth year of Zhongping.

Historically, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty died in April, thus opening the curtain on Yuan Shao's punishment of eunuchs and Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing to seize power.

"Yes, the yellow scarves are still frequent, and it is indeed an eventful time." An emotional voice sighed.

Gao Heng turned his head, only to find that there was a middle-aged man wearing a scarf on his head, wearing Confucian clothes, and a white beard standing beside him. The other party was in his early thirties, dressed in single cloth and shoes, with a copper seal and yellow ribbon hanging from his waist, just standing there, showing a kind of bearing that was not out of the crowd.

Judging from the costume alone, it is obvious that he is also a scholar.

Moreover, Gao Heng could see from the ribbon on his waist that the other party was a county official, and his rank was not low. After all, according to the Han Dynasty system, those who can wear yellow ribbons are all officials who can wear 200 to 400 stones.

"Gao Heng, a student from Liaodong, has seen the envoy." Gao Heng bowed his hand. As long as there is not too much difference in status between scholars, there is no need to pay a big salute.

"A certain is Guo Xuan, who lives in Tingpeng in this county." The middle-aged man also returned the salute, "Huh? The hair under his feet ...... "Tingpeng is a subordinate official of the county order, supervising the township affairs, persuading the people to farm and mulberry, and supervising the lawless."

Although there is a scarf on his head, if you look closely, it is easy to see that Gao Heng has short hair. The Han Dynasty advocated filial piety, so not to mention the image-oriented scholars, even peddlers, pawns and even prisoners were impossible to cut their hair.

"The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and filial piety is the beginning. Standing up and doing the way, making a name for yourself in future generations, in order to show your parents, and the end of filial piety. Gao Heng first memorized a piece of filial piety, and then looked bitter and hateful, "The hateful Yellow Turban thief is actually exterminating human nature, and he takes pleasure in cutting his hair and humiliating people, if it weren't for the head of the family who followed Luo Long to save him desperately when the Yellow Turban was careless, he would not be lucky." ”

Anyway, the reputation of the yellow scarf has completely stinked, and it is estimated that people don't care about pouring some sewage on it.

If it weren't for that, it would be really difficult for a modern person to reasonably explain why he had short hair, as for Brother Long, he had to be wronged to make a cameo, and he wouldn't care too much about it.

"It's just a pity, now that he has fallen into the hands of thieves, he must be tortured, and he doesn't know what happened to life and death......" Gao Heng's face was sad, and Guo Xuan couldn't help but admire: "Loyal to the Lord, he is really a strong man." ”

Speaking of the Yellow Turban, Guo Xuan seemed to empathize with the indignation: "The Yellow Turban thieves are indeed hateful, they are the most hateful to the villagers, and they hate the officials the most. ”

"If it weren't for the eunuch party to bring disaster to the country and the government to become unsuccessful, why would the Yellow Turban Rebellion be so delayed." Gao Heng worries about the country and the people.

Yingchuan is the base of the party, and the power of the eunuchs is not strong here, and they will return in three months anyway, so Gao Heng is not afraid of being hated by the eunuchs after hearing about it. And after the collapse of Emperor Ling, Yuan Shao was aggressive, and the eunuchs and his party were still too busy to take care of themselves, so how could they go to Gao Heng for trouble.

"As Gao Qing said before, it's an eventful season!" Perhaps because he was in public, although Guo Xuan agreed, he did not intend to continue on this topic.

Guo Xuan seemed to think of something at this time, slapped his thigh suddenly, and said suddenly: "Yes, isn't Gao Qing Gao Yaoguang who led the crowd to help when the Yellow Turban thieves attacked Liu Weng's house at night a few days ago?" I almost forgot, in this Gaoxiang Pavilion, in addition to Gao Qing, how can there be other Liaodong students? Qing's merits, Liu Weng has already reported to the county monarch, and the county monarch is also praised. ”

"I made you praise it." Gao Heng was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't show it.

"A few years older, if Yaoguang doesn't dislike it, you can call my cousin obvious, don't be too outside." Guo Xuan enthusiastically pulled Gao Heng's wrist, and his tone was close, obviously planning to make friends with his peers.

"It's rare to make you not suspicious, and I can only climb high." Gao Heng is humble and authentic.

"Don't climb high, don't climb high, Yaoguang don't be arrogant." Guo Xuan waved his hand.

"Nowadays, although the Yellow Turban thieves are weak, they still plunder the place from time to time, but it is a pity that there are few people who dare to do things in the townships and pavilions. Yaoguang spoke up with righteousness, knew the reason, and said that the villagers of Fanyang and Gaoxiang Erting rushed to help kill thieves, and their reputation was spread in all townships. After hearing about it, the county gentleman also intended to recruit Yaoguang, but I don't know what Yaoguang wanted? ”

Guo Xuan's face was solemn. This time he went to the countryside, in addition to issuing the county government's sea fishing documents, another purpose was to come to Gao Heng on the order of the county.

"Dare to ask Brother Xianzhao, I don't know how the county gentleman plans to arrange it?" Gao Heng suppressed his excitement and asked.

"Since he first worked as a scribe in the county and accumulated qualifications, this is the right way to work, why did Yaoguang ask so?" Guo Xuan looked at Yaoguang with some strange eyes.

"This ......" Gao Heng hesitated for a moment, compared to the countryside where bandits are rampant, the county town seems to be much safer, but in the same way, many opportunities will be lost. If Gao Heng just wanted to survive the three-month mission by eating and waiting to die, then he naturally chose to hide in the county seat, but if Gao Heng wanted to become as strong as possible, then he shouldn't get by. Killing the Yellow Turban, of course, is very risky, but in the same way, valuable loot can also be obtained.

What's more, who can be sure that there is no danger in Yingyin County, Gao Heng has no foundation in the county, and once something happens, he can only be slaughtered. But in Gaoxiang Pavilion and Fanyang Pavilion, Gao Heng already has a lot of influence.

Therefore, just a little hesitation, Gao Heng gave up the idea of going to the county seat.

"The county gentleman values it, and I shouldn't have shirked it, but I'm only a shallow learner, so I really don't dare to agree. I don't know if Brother Xianzhao can tell the county monarch on his behalf that I am willing to stay in the township, even if I am only a pavilion chief, I am willing to do it. Gao Heng euphemistically put forward his own ideas.

"I am from the Shu clan, and my family is not obvious. Meng Xianjun valued it, first for the secretary to do the history, and then accumulated merit and moved to Tingpeng. Everything is complicated in the countryside, and it is difficult to be promoted, Yaoguang must not make mistakes. As a traditional scholar, Guo Xuan really found it difficult to understand Gao Heng's thoughts, being an official in the county, even if it was just a secretary and running a history, was much more decent than the husband who was in charge of a township, and often came into contact with the chief officials in the county, and was easy to be appreciated, so he was promoted.

"Brother Xianzhao is open-minded and open-minded, praised by the villagers, if I serve under the Tingpeng Sect, I will definitely benefit a lot." Gao Heng's words made Guo Xuan speechless for a long time.

Seeing that Gao Heng was unmoved and still insisted, Guo Xuan had no choice but to give up and sighed: "That's it, everyone has their own ambitions." Since Yaoguang is determined to guard the people and protect the safety of the party, Gaoxiang Youyou caused the Yellow Turban Thieves to make a rebellion some time ago because of drinking in the county seat, and he was negligent in his duties, and he was seized by the county monarch and imprisoned. I recommend it to the county monarch, and you will take over, if there is no accident, you will come to the county government with Deng Hu of Fanyang Pavilion tomorrow afternoon to receive the seal. ”

After a pause, Guo Xuan explained: "Deng Hu was originally a thief under the head of the county government, because he was appreciated by Xun Gongcao, he moved to Fanyang Pavilion last year. If it weren't for the county magistrate who had already decided on this matter, I would recommend Yaoguang to take this position, You Xi is a military position, specializing in thieves, and it is most appropriate for Deng Hu to take it. ”

Sifu ranks 100 stones, and You Yi is only a rank of 100 stones, which is naturally slightly inferior in name. Although the functions and powers of the two sides are not subordinate to each other, but Sifu is in charge of a township, sentencing lawsuits and prisons, collecting taxes, apportioning forced labor, and his authoritarian position is extremely heavy, and it belongs to the civil service, Guo Xuan naturally hopes that Gao Heng will be in charge. It's just that the resolution has been made, and even the county monarch can't change it, otherwise it will be a refutation of Xun Gongcao's face.

But Gao Heng doesn't mind, it's good to wander, specialize in thieves, how simple, if you become a husband and take charge of the affairs of a township, complicated and trivial, then you really have to be busy.

And Deng Hu and Gao Heng have a good relationship, it's better than changing to someone they don't know well.

After saying goodbye to Guo Xuan, Gao Heng was so excited that he just wanted to find a place where no one was there and shout to vent the joy in his heart. One township and ten pavilions, even if you count it in a small way, there are 100 young people in one pavilion, then the entire high township is enough to have 1,000 Ding Zhuang.

How many Yellow Turban thieves can there be in Xiaolongshan? Less than 100 people.

Moreover, the last night attack on Liujiazhuang also lost nearly 50 people, even if people were arrested everywhere and expanded, the number of people would not be much more. If you try to weaken it by any means, thousands of young people will be piled up, and they will all be piled to death.

"The kid surnamed Gao, stop for so-and-so!" At the corner of the street, a group of people blocked Gao Heng's way violently, and Pang Hai, the black man led by him, was full of anger.

"Oh, it turned out to be Pang Saburo, long time no see." A smile appeared at the corner of Gao Heng's mouth.

"Hmph, if you don't believe in your words, you are not a son of man!" Pang Hai saw Gao Heng's casual appearance, and his anger was even greater.

"Who dares to say that I don't believe in my word!" Gao Heng had already prepared, and in turn Xingshi asked: "I was injured before, I had difficulty moving, and I waited day and night, but why can't I even wait for Pang Saburo's figure?" ”

"You, you, you!" Pang Hai's momentum suddenly weakened, Liu Jiazhuang was holding a funeral before, where did he dare to go? It's not that the place where people have died is unlucky, but that the people in Liujiazhuang don't want to see him.

Although he also had his share of the credit for killing Zhang Cai that night, the cause was his gambling contract with Gao Heng, if he really dared to come to the door to ask Gao Heng to fulfill the gambling contract, Liu Wen might tear his mind. Is it that if there is no bet this time, you Pang Hai will not save Liu Jiazhuang and sit idly by?

But Pang Hai was also aggrieved, he killed the Yellow Turban no less than Deng Hu, there were not ten but seven or eight, but when it came to rewarding meritorious deeds, everyone left him aside, such obvious discrimination, how could Pang Hai not be on fire?

And now it has spread all over the country, what Gaoxiang Pavilion is afraid of thieves like a tiger, Gao Langjun is righteous and angry, what Gao Yao Guangzhi set up a radical method, and killed the yellow turban all night, and what starry night is righteous Fanyang Pavilion, galloping to help Gaoxiang and excite Pang Hai, word of mouth, how exaggerated and exaggerated. And he, Pang Hai, has simply become a supporting role in storytelling, and is used to set off Gao Heng's resourcefulness and greatness.

"Well, I lost the last bet, and the poems written for Pang Saburo have already been prepared." Even if Pang Hai didn't come, Gao Heng was ready to go to him, so he took out a bamboo slip from his body with preparation, handed it to Pang Hai, and then turned away.

"Liuzhou Song Head?" Pang Hai glanced at it and read it: "Young chivalrous, befriend Wuduxiong." Liver and gallbladder holes, hair shrugging. In the conversation, life and death are the same. A promise is a great ......"

"Push bravely, be arrogant. Light cover embrace, Lianfei, Doucheng East. Booming drinking, spring floating cold urn, sucking the sea and weeping rainbows. Idle eagle dog, white feather picks up the eagle bow, cunning Russian empty ......"

"Don't ask for a long tassel, tie the pride of the sky, and the sword roars the west wind. Hate mountaineering and water, hand send seven-string tong, and see the return to Hong. ”

Several ranger companions behind Pang Hai were illiterate, and asked urgently: "Brother Dang, how is the writing?" ”

But Pang Hai didn't respond, he only felt that this poem simply wrote the rangers vividly, the kind of chivalrous spirit of a promise, the kind of cheerfulness and boldness when he was in the middle of the horse, the kind of loss and loneliness that he longed to make contributions but no one appreciated, as if it was a true portrayal of thousands of rangers like Pang Hai.

"A promise is a thousand gold!" Pang Hai suddenly felt like a confidant to Gao Heng, and all the previous unhappiness and misunderstood cold reception seemed to have disappeared at this moment, "Although the world is big, only Gao Jun understands me!" ”

If Pang Hai knew that Gao Heng had actually "over-borrowed" the talent of the later generations of He Zhu, he would definitely look up to the sky and shout angrily: Come here, I promise I won't kill you!
