Chapter 4: Tiger Wolf (1)

People of different ages and experiences have very different views on the same series of things. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoWhat happened in Cangzhou recently was like a flower in the fog in the eyes of Fu Zhaoxin, who was only fourteen years old.

However, he forced himself to carefully read and figure out the secret reports sent back by the meticulous workers in the starry night, and did not dare to neglect them at all.

The eldest brother has been ordered by his father to study behind closed doors, the eldest sister has just lost her husband and is at home, and the third brother has just toddled! As a male in the family who is about to become an adult, it is his duty to share his father's worries.

Another reason why he didn't dare to be negligent was that Zheng Ziming, mentioned in the secret report, was similar in age to himself when he first debuted. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, others can single-handedly maneuver between tigers, leopards, wolves and jackals such as Liu Zhiyuan, Chang Si, and Guo Yunming, and they are unharmed. He Fu Zhaoxin now has a father and a mother behind him, and there are countless ministers and good generals, how can he not even see what others want to do clearly?

"Tiger head, it's midnight, why haven't you gone to sleep yet?" The door of the study was pushed open from the outside, and a deep and kind voice came in from the door.

"Grandpa, you, why are you here?" Fu Zhaoxin quickly raised his head in the candlelight, glanced at the door, then got up and left the table, walked forward quickly, and bowed to the old general Fu Yanqing who was standing at the door: "The child has seen his father." Haven't you slept yet? The child is not sleepy, and the child has eaten a few secret reports from Cangzhou, and immediately goes to sleep?"

"Secret report, there is new news over there in Cangzhou? Is the Shi family still continuing to kill people? Or is there any new trick played?" After listening to his son's words, the old general Fu Yanqing suddenly came to his senses, his eyebrows jumped, and he asked loudly.

"It's no longer killing. From this month onwards, what he did was to divide the land among the people, confer official titles on his subordinates, restore official education at all levels, and pay a lot of money to hire Fan Zheng as the governor of the Assassin Prefecture and the teacher of Cangzhou, responsible for evaluating local talents, and selecting talents and talents!" Fu Zhaoxin didn't have to think about it, and quickly gave an answer. (Note 1, Note 2)

"Fan Zheng, how could he go to Cangzhou? Shi Jiazi really picks people!" Suddenly hearing a familiar name, Fu Yanqing's brows jumped slightly, and he blurted out words of surprise.

Usually, after a new official takes office, he will definitely have to fight with the local tyrants. Therefore, although Zheng Ziming killed people in Cangzhou, he didn't surprise Fu Yanqing too much. As for the behavior of using other people's land to buy the hearts of the people after killing Haoqiang, and using the officials of the imperial court to win over the soldiers under his command, in the eyes of old rivers and lakes like Fu Yanqing, it is even more logical, and everyone will do that, and it is not strange for a long time.

The only thing that surprised Fu Yanqing was that after offending the local gentry, the young man actually knew how to invite Fan Zheng, a famous Confucian, to show favor to the entire Shilin. And that Fan Zheng actually pulled down his old face, and bent his waist to a yellow-mouthed son for dozens of buckets of salty salt!

The child estimated that he entrusted the favor of the Guo family again. Fan Wenchang's brother Wen Sugong and Guo Shumi are close friends. If the Guo family asks the two brothers to help, Wen Sugong is not easy to refuse!" Fu Zhaoxin looked up at his father's eyes and solemnly said his speculation.

This analysis is very reasonable, Fu Yanqing immediately smiled and nodded: "It's possible, but it is also possible that there are two Fan brothers, and they still have the favor of the Shi family in their hearts." After all, when Shi Chonggui was in power, he relied heavily on Fan Wensu. Although these two brothers didn't have the courage to repay Shi Chonggui's kindness with their deaths, if the descendants of the Shi family asked to come to the door, they would not ignore it!"

Receiving his father's encouragement, Fu Zhaoxin immediately increased his confidence, smiled, and continued to add in a low voice, "According to the detailed report, Zheng Ziming slashed and killed in Cangzhou, and nearly one million yuan was copied from other people's homes just for copper coins. Taking out 100,000 yuan to benefit others must be enough to impress Wen Changgong's love for talent. After all, in the eyes of Wen Changgong, this talent without the word shell, according to the talent with the word shell, the difference is too far!"

"Oh?ha, haha, hahahaha......" Fu Yanqing was slightly stunned at first, and then looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Fu Zhaoxin also narrowed his eyes and smiled like a little fox who had just stolen an egg.

The father and son in the mouth of Wen Changgong are the words of Fan Zheng, the current Cangzhou Thorn History Yamen Changshi and Cangzhou Official School. And Fan Zheng's elder brother Fan Wensu was a friend of Guo Wei, the deputy privy envoy of the dynasty, a scholar of the Han Kingdom, and a household servant.

Back then, Fan Zheng's brother Fan Zhen was depressed in the officialdom. It was the emperor of the late Jin Dynasty who was noble and discerning, and appointed him to be a bachelor of Hanlin. Subsequently, most of the edicts of the imperial court came from this person. For Fan Zhen's character and ability, Shi Chonggui believes very much. In many cases, after the edict was drafted, Shi Chonggui did not change a word, and he would directly use the seal.

So if Zheng Ziming is really the second son of Shi Chonggui as the legend says, it makes sense for Fan Zheng to go out of the mountain to help him. Moreover, Fan Zheng, although Wencai is as good as his brother, has the opposite attitude towards money. His brother Fan Zhen, whether he was an official in the Later Jin Dynasty or an official in the Han Kingdom, was clean and clean. And Fan Zheng is used to the life of BMW mink fur, and he definitely doesn't smell copper.

And although Zheng Ziming is now short of talents, soldiers, and armor and weapons, he will not be short of money. The eastern part of Cangzhou is close to the sea and there are many shallows, and salt can be produced by chopping wood and boiling the sea. The big salt lords in Cangzhou were cut down by him, and the savings of several lifetimes fell into his hands, and he took out a part of it to buy horse bones, and the surname Zheng didn't have to blink his eyes.

In this way, if anyone wants to accuse Zheng Ziming of valuing the grass people and ignoring the people, his voice will undoubtedly be much weaker. And the leaders of Shilin, for the sake of the Fan brothers' face, are not too difficult for him.

What a brave and resourceful young man! What a Cangzhou defense envoy! If the son of some people can understand what he is doing at the moment, he should really die of shame!

......

"If you still have any confusion, you might as well talk about it together. While I'm not sleepy now, I can help you analyze one or two!" After laughing for a while, Fu Yanqing looked at the sky outside and continued to ask.

Letting his son help him with his official duties is a workout for his son. However, he can't really be a shopkeeper. On the one hand, his son Zhaoxin is only fourteen years old after all, and his experience and experience are very lacking. Putting such a heavy burden on the shoulders of a 14-year-old child is inevitably suspected of pulling out the seedlings and encouraging them. On the other hand, it is because Cangzhou is only separated by a river from his Fu family's territory. A milk tiger suddenly appeared at the door of the house this year, and as the head of the house, he didn't dare to pretend to turn a blind eye no matter what.

Note 1: The Fu family's sphere of influence was mainly in Qingzhou, that is, Denglai, Zizhou, Dizhou and other places at that time, and Cangzhou was separated from the Yellow River at that time.

Note 2: According to the Tang system, under the command of the assassin Shi, he can have different official positions, such as Changshi, Sima, Lushi to join the army and Sigong, Sicang, etc. You can also be promoted to idle positions such as literature and medical doctor.
