From February to mid-June, more than four months have passed, and now, Liu Chang has more than eight hours of intensive training every day, and the remaining time of each day is less than four hours. And as time goes on, there will be less time left, and he now has to hurry up and get things in order for the next two months, and put all his energy into training, and the review after two months will be very crucial for him.

Although the chances of elimination are unlikely, he has to give his all and does not want any accidents. The things in the gang are not a big problem, after all, according to his design, even if there is no helper for a short time, the operation of the beggar gang will not have much impact, and it can run automatically. News came from the yamen that the beggar gang may have attracted the attention of the government, which is also a helpless thing, if by now, a huge sect is operating out of the sight of the government, and the government is not aware of it at all, then there is no need for this government to exist.

There are no weak soldiers under a strong general, how can he be an incompetent person who can serve as Chang'an Ling under a strong emperor. However, in a short period of time, the possibility of the government taking action is very small, and by the time they investigate, collect evidence, and verify the facts, at least three or four months, the beggar gang is no longer a few people, dozens of people, hundreds of people, he involves more than 200,000 people, all over various industries, and the government will not take the liberty of taking action if it is not sure of it.

At the beggar gang meeting a few days ago, he had already made arrangements, warned the gang, restrained his deeds, actively had a harmonious relationship with the surrounding sects, and dealt with the direct friction between the government and the government in a low-key manner. If it is not a very major incident and involves the personal safety of the hall master or deputy hall master, it is not allowed to interfere, and it is necessary to actively cooperate with the government's actions. It's nothing to catch a few beggars, and you can't catch all beggars, and you can't kill them endlessly.

As for the next arrangement, I can only wait until I pass the assessment to see if Bing Ji can accept such a system in the end, if Bing Ji can accept it, handing over the beggar gang to him to take over is the ideal ending. In any case, he has compassion for the prince's faction, and that is enough.

Although the beggars are something they played on their own whims, it is certainly best to be able to introduce the right path. Anyway, I have both hands ready, or be disbanded, or be taken over.

Today, I took my father to the north corner of the palace and looked at the newly raised frame within the palace walls. This is three months ago, the emperor ordered the construction of the palace, and now the main frame has just been completed, there is no capping, no doors and windows are installed, some craftsmen are working, it is estimated that it can be completed in one or two months. The father wore a wide hat to cover his face.

Under Su Wen's operation, the wanted arrest of his father was canceled, and the emperor also showed remorse for the witch Gu incident and missed his son, but the charge against Liu Ju was not canceled, and he still had to be a dead man.

The father and son stood for a while, and then quietly left.

Today is a day of great joy for him: his grandson is coming!! He didn't want to look at this pile of wood here. Back to his own small courtyard, it can't be called a small courtyard, it is bigger than his previous palace, the front yard is big, the back yard is big, and he took a dozen subordinates to plant all kinds of vegetables and fruits, and also raised chickens.

Except for the two girls who followed Liu Chang's side, all the subordinates were sent out. There is a melon stand in the courtyard, it is covered with emerald green vines, there are large and small courgettes hanging down and verdant and dripping, under the courgette shelf, there is a huge bamboo mat, the square of the bamboo mat, put a low table, there are two low a few on the left and right of the low table.

The low table is filled with a variety of dishes. The two little girls are methodically dishing vegetables.

"Uncle, uncle" With a burst of immature children's voices, a little kid staggered in, no need to explain, it was Liu Chang's nephew, Liu was sick.

As soon as the little guy saw Liu Chang, he stretched out two little arms and pounced on Liu Chang, today, the little guy is also dressed in luxurious equipment, with a hanging hairstyle, bright silk clothes, silk tiger head boots, and a blue ribbon around his waist. As Liu Chang picked up his little nephew, a lady came in at the door. She walked a few steps closely, came to Liu Ju, fell to her knees, and was on the ground, choked up in her mouth: "Father... The daughter-in-law is not filial and cannot wait for her father. Woowoo"

Liu Ju also burst into tears: "Okay, get up." ”

couldn't reach out to help each other, and motioned to the two girls to caress Mrs. Wang up, Mrs. Wang stood up, still couldn't hold back her tears, and kept wiping with the corner of her clothes.

Mrs. Wang tidied up her clothes, wiped away her tears, and took the illness off Liu Chang's body, and the little guy saw so many unfamiliar faces, and became well-behaved.

"Come, kowtow to grandfather" The little guy followed his mother to Liu Ju in a proper manner, knelt down in a proper manner, and shouted "grandfather" in a regular manner.

Seeing his grandson's cautious look, Liu Ju couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and hurriedly picked up the illness. The minor illness has obediently stayed in Liu Ju's arms, with a blank face. Seeing Liu Ju's tears, he couldn't help but wipe Liu Ju with his little hands.

Liu Ju hurriedly grabbed his little hand, turned his back to the sky, his lips trembled, he wanted to hold back his tears, but the tears were more left.

"Where's my father and second brother?" Liu Chang's timely voice pulled everyone out of their grief.

Liu Ju also took advantage of this vacancy, holding the sick with his left hand, wiping away his tears with his right hand, and turned to look into the house.

At the main entrance, Bao'er stood quietly, with no sadness or joy on her face, but her eyes were a little smart.

"Second uncle, what's wrong?" Mrs. Wang looked a little surprised.

"Hey, when I was in Huxian, I was a little frightened, but now it's much better. Bao'er came over and saw her sister-in-law. ”

"I've seen my sister-in-law"

Bao'er also walked over in a proper manner and saluted Mrs. Wang in a proper manner.

"Okay, okay, let's eat" Liu Chang greeted loudly, and he knelt down in the lower left first.

Mrs. Wang was a little flustered, Liu Chang's position should be hers, the position of the head should be the second uncle's, and the second uncle's position should be the third uncle's, and the third uncle's current position should be hers.

"Sister-in-law, please take a seat, you have kept your bloodline for the eldest brother, and the position of the eldest brother is yours." Liu Chang saw his sister-in-law's embarrassment and hurriedly spoke. Seating, which is the main component of etiquette, who sits in what position, reflects the upbringing of a family, from the elderly to the drooping children must be observed. In some important places, violating etiquette can lead to a crime or a death in the worst case.

"Yes, yes, it's time to eat" Liu Ju has no opinion on this, and has walked to the main position with his illness: "The illness has been the same seat as my grandfather."

He looked at his mother, and when he saw that he had no objection, he obediently followed his grandfather and sat down beside him. Mrs. Wang did not insist either, kneeling neatly in the first place on the left. The lower right position is empty, which is the position of the sick person.

The two girls stood on the left and right of the main seat, taking care of Liu Ju's meal, and of course, now they have to take care of their grandchildren.

The minor illness has gradually adapted, no longer restrained, took the initiative to lie on the table, grabbed the meat to feed his grandfather, and of course, did not forget to fill his small mouth. Liu Ju laughed happily, and the family was happy.

After the meal, the maid served another plate of courgette, which is now the cucumber and the cut watermelon. Both of these were brought back from the Western Regions by Zhang Qian's envoy to the Western Regions. Liu Chang's beggar gang controlled the trade routes, these things were not uncommon to him, and the seeds were also provided by Liu Chang, and these fruits were indeed cultivated by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself.

It was the first time I had eaten watermelon, and I ate it all over my face, which caused everyone to laugh again.

Mrs. Wang and the minor illness have been taken by the two maids, and went to the backyard to see the fruits of the labor of the sick grandfather, and the second treasure went back to the house, and there were only Liu Chang and Liu Chang and his son left under the melon shed.

"Father, I have to leave for a while, two or three months at the earliest, and half a year at the latest," Liu Chang told Liu Yi of his plans.

Liu Ju didn't squeak and waited for the following. He knew that his son had a mission, and he didn't know what the specific mission was, and he didn't ask, anyway, his sister wouldn't harm his nephew, and that was enough.

"I have arranged all the affairs of the house, and if my father has any urgent matters, he can send someone to my residence in the city, and there are people there who will handle it, and they will notify me if they can't do it. You don't have to worry about your sister-in-law, everything will be fine with Bing Ji. Liu Ju smiled and did not answer.

But there was a burst of bitterness in my heart. In the past, it was my father who arranged everything for himself, and now, I want my son to arrange everything for himself, and I seem to have failed as a son or a father.

However, I have a good son.

This is a warm home, a home away from the shadow of imperial power, a father and a son who are filial to each other, no longer care about any conspiracies, no longer trembling, walking on thin ice.

The next day, at the secret base outside the city of the beggar gang, Liu Chang summoned all the backbones in Beijing, and he wanted to make the final arrangements. Mistakes happen all the time, and he has to prepare for the worst.

"Today, I summoned everyone here, there is an urgent matter to arrange" Liu Chang sat in the first place, looking at nearly two hundred people on both sides, these are the backbone of the beggar gang, all of them are the hall master, the deputy hall master, and the main person in charge of the rudder.

"I'm going to be away for a while because of some personal matters, so in case anything unexpected happens during my absence, I'll arrange things for the next period of time. Ma Xin, you say it first! ”

"No"

Ma Xin stood up, spread out a pile of bamboo slips around him, sorted out his emotions, and then, slightly excited, said: "Now, the remaining property of the entire beggar gang totals 11,256,834,107 copper coins and 73,23 gold gold. There are 530 large and small houses, which are equivalent to about 120 million yuan in cash, and about 200 million yuan in other properties. ”

Coax!! Hearing Ma Xin's words, there was an uproar below. Liu Chang pressed his hand down and motioned for everyone to be quiet: "In order to prevent accidents, I have decided to divide the existing property equally according to four halls, eight beggars and thirty-six rudders. These properties are allocated, and houses and other houses are also discounted. Rest assured, this is a plan in case I am cleared after I leave.

Several hall masters and helmsmen used the money to arrange their families. During my absence, everyone kept a low profile and tried not to conflict with the government. This matter is subject to authority, and I issue it with the authority of the helper, without going through the lecture hall. After the decision was announced, Liu Chang left, and no discussion and dissenting opinions were allowed.

This is a choice that there is no way to make, the beggar gang is cleared, it is a matter of time before it comes, he can't choose, the beggar gang is too big! If he doesn't take the opportunity to dismantle, he will be kidnapped by the beggars in the end, and when the time comes, he will be kidnapped and rebel, and when the time comes, the life will be ruined and his throne will be overthrown, which is not the result he wants to see. He still understands the truth that the tail is not lost, it just so happens that his family is going to participate in the retest, so take this opportunity to end the beggar gang, as for whether the government can seize this opportunity, it is not within the scope of my Liu Chang's consideration.

"Are you worried about the government's heavy hand?" Before Liu Chang left, he had to talk to Bing Ji, whether it was his nephew, or the beggar gang, or his father, he had to ask Bing Ji, in the whole person, the only person he could trust was Bing Ji.

"It's very likely, the beggars are too big." Bing Ji voiced his concerns.

"This, I can't control it anymore" Liu Chang continued self-deprecatingly: "In this world, there are too many beggars, I don't know if it's my luck or my misfortune." Originally, I just wanted to take my brother to find a spacious room to live in. ”

"Your empty house is almost half a big man."

"Brother, can you..."

"Stop。。 The only end for me to occupy this position is rebellion, and it is a rebellion that will inevitably fail. There is no second way. ”

"Is there really no way?"

"Your solution should be feasible, let those people get some money, and slowly dissolve, just hope that it will be in time."

"The government, I don't think it will be a killing spree, after all, these people are beggars"

"It can only be said that they were born as beggars."

"Will you be implicated?" This is what Liu Chang cares about, he is not worried that the imperial court will go on a killing spree, because it is meaningless to kill these beggars, it will only force these beggars to rebel, and it will do more harm than good to the imperial court. It is possible to arrest some key personnel, and there is no way to do it, I can only try to compensate them with some money, so that they, at least their families, can live better.

"It shouldn't be" Bing Ji understands the law after all, and the official who manages the edict prison, "The beggar and the prince case have nothing to do with it." ”

The two talked all night, although there was no result, but Liu Chang was relieved to leave.
