292 Duties of Officials (2-in-1)

"Wang Xiaoliu, is that you?"

In the eyes of everyone, Shen Yichen suddenly came to the bedside of a rebel soldier and tentatively said a name.

"Shen ...... Shen Eucalyptus ......, no, Admiral Shen! ”

This wounded soldier named Wang Xiaoliu looked at Shen Yichen who suddenly came to him, and he was a little speechless in shock. habitually shouted out the name when he was on the bank of the Zhenjiang River and saw Shen Yichen for the first time.

Even he dragged his injured leg, ready to struggle to get up and salute Shen Yichen, completely forgetting that the other party was still an enemy.

"If you're injured, just lie down and don't move, since you still remember Shen Eucalyptus, you should know that I don't care about these red tapes."

Shen Yichen put his hand on the other party's shoulder and signaled that Wang Xiaoliu didn't have to get up and salute.

This action is extremely natural, and the words are like caring for an acquaintance who has not seen him for many years. The other rebel soldiers who saw this scene didn't know how to describe the psychological touch for a while.

It may be difficult for even the high-level leaders of the rebel army to be as "Lixian Corporal" as Shen Yichen, not to mention that the other party is still a high-ranking court official.

"It's not that the little one still remembers Admiral Shen, but I didn't expect Admiral Shen to know the little one!"

Wang Xiaoliu's emotions came up at once, a few years ago on the banks of the Zhenjiang River, he and Admiral Shen were only one-sided.

Now, a few years later, he hasn't forgotten his name!

"The grace of saving your life, how can you forget, Xiaoliu, how are your injuries?"

Shen Yichen smiled kindly, and then asked with concern.

Wang Xiaoliu, who was still emotional, heard Shen Yichen ask about his injury, and his expression instantly darkened.

"Yesterday, the siege of the city was smashed by stones and broke his leg, and there is a lack of doctors and herbs in the army to heal, so it may not be cured."

It stands to reason that it is impossible to tell outsiders about this kind of internal situation in the army, let alone whether this person is still an enemy.

But Wang Xiaoliu didn't have the slightest defense, and told the truth about the difficulties of the righteous army. Even Ye Zongliu and the others, who were standing next to them, didn't have any intention of stopping them, they almost had an absolute trust in Shen Yichen.

"Don't say sad words, how can a good man live the rest of his life, I will find a way to help you heal."

"Admiral Shen, you ......"

When he heard that Shen Yichen said that he would find a way to heal, Wang Xiaoliu's first reaction was not joy, but disbelief.

Admiral Shen is under the emperor's order to quell the rebellion in Fujian. According to common sense, the more casualties he and others had, the better news it would be for him, how could he help the rebels heal?

When it is said on other court officials, it is not a cold joke, but it is deliberately sarcastic. But this person is Shen Yichen, Wang Xiaoliu has no doubts in his heart, he believes that Admiral Shen will do what he says!

"Needless to say, take a good rest first, and I'll solve it later."

Shen Yichen patted Wang Xiaoliu's shoulder again, then turned around and prepared to leave.

But when he looked behind him, he found that he didn't know when, there were already countless pairs of eyes watching the conversation just now.

There is excitement, surprise, gratitude, and guilt for the "siege" of Shen Yichen last night.

"Admiral Shen, you are a good official."

After staring at each other for a long time, such a sentence came out of the crowd of rebels.

There are many things that can't be faked, Shen Yichen can remember an ordinary miner, can sit next to him and ask about his injuries, can say words of comfort and take on follow-up treatment.

Looking at the Ming Dynasty, how many officials can do it?

Even if it's a show, one counts as one, no one does it!

If there were more officials like Shen Yichen, there might not be today's Fujian rebellion!

"Good officer?"

Hearing this compliment, Shen Yichen continued with a smile: "The title I heard yesterday is a dog officer. ”

Shen Yichen could say this joke without care, but the rebel soldiers present didn't know how to answer under this situation.

"But what you said is right, it is true that there are too many dog officials in the imperial court, which has caused the situation that has to be reversed now."

If you talk about Shen Yichen's joke before, it can still be explained by open-mindedness. Then his remarks now are almost equivalent to admitting the justice of the "rebels".

At this time, if other officials learned that a letter was submitted to Jingshi to impeach Shen Yichen for the crime of "colluding with thieves", this sentence alone would be enough to convict!

But Shen Yichen didn't care about everyone's surprise, nor did he worry about the hidden dangers caused by his amazing words, and still said to himself: "I once heard a saying that it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes if you are not the master of the people. ”

"Now I am out of the town of Fujian to supervise military affairs, and control the civil and military officials throughout Fujian during the war. In a sense, you can be called the parent official of the people of Fujian, which naturally includes you. ”

"Fujian has today's beacon war, it's not the fault of this official!"

"It is the responsibility of the official to serve for one term, benefit one party, and quell the war so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

"Whether you believe it or not, I will do my best to protect you and your family, and live a safe and stable life in the future."

"That's why I came to Fujian."

After saying that, Shen Yichen bowed deeply to the righteous soldiers present, in order to express his inner guilt and apology.

Because no matter what you say, Shen Yichen is an official after all, and he represents the Ming Dynasty behind him. Deng Maoba's crying last night, putting aside the political game, is indeed a history of blood and tears that most of the rebels have experienced.

They revolt for survival and should not be defined as sinners!

Looking at Shen Yichen's movements, the audience was silent. Perhaps no one in the Fujian Righteous Army thought that they could hear these words and see the apology on behalf of the imperial court.

The rebels present were very grateful to Shen Yichen for his intentions, but they did not dare to believe in the promise of the imperial court, let alone hope that they would be able to live and work in peace and contentment in the future.

"Admiral Shen, can we really live in peace?"

An uprising peasant with a thick bandage on his head and one eye asked Shen Yichen in an inaudible voice.

A few months ago, he was a tenant who got up early and stayed up in the dark, and his greatest wish was to eat a bowl of rice. But now that his family is ruined and he has become half blind, it seems that his dream of living and working in peace and contentment has become more and more distant.

"Yes!"

Shen Yichen replied categorically.

Whether it is to give the other person confidence or put pressure on yourself, there must be no hesitation.

Is it?

Countless questions sounded in the hearts of the rebels, and the cruelty of reality made everyone dare not have this unattainable dream after all.

Looking at the changes in the expressions on the faces of the righteous soldiers, Shen Yichen understood that many things had already formed a foregone conclusion, and he could not change the status quo by relying on prestige and words.

The only thing that can turn things around is to practice words with deeds!

Therefore, Shen Yichen didn't say anything more, but silently returned to his camp with Ye Zongliu and others, and then ordered towards Canghuotou: "You immediately rush to Changle County, Fuzhou Prefecture, and let Xu Fengyuan transport medicinal herbs and doctors to Quanzhou City at all costs, and I will solve the dilemma of the righteous army's lack of doctors and medicines." ”

Xu Fengyuan left grain for Ye Zong, and Shen Yichen knew about it early. Since it was done once in Jianning Mansion, now the neighboring Quanzhou Mansion will come again, and it should not be a problem in operation.

In recent years, under the governance of Xu Fengyuan's deliberate relaxation of the sea ban, Changle County has become one of the largest ports and commercial ports on the southeast coast.

The only trouble is that this kind of thing is a bit too ostentatious, and it is easy to be judged by the outside world as a "capital enemy".

In other words, Shen Yichen is the enemy.

"The proprietor, when Xu Xianzun delivered grain and grass to Brother Ye, he was careful to hand over in the wilderness in order to avoid people's eyes. Now that we have to add doctors, it is easier to leak the news and attract the attention of others, is this move too public? ”

Bian He solemnly reminded that the Fujian Political Secretary is different from the Shandong Political Division, and the backer behind Song Zhang, the right-hand political envoy, is Wang Zhen.

If this fanfare operation is caught by the other party, and then operated in the center of the imperial court, it is easy to burn yourself.

The safest way is to transport grain and grass in the same way as before, and only medicine will be sent in the wilderness. As for the doctors and personnel, in order to prevent people from being complicated, they can be avoided!

"The Sword Comes"

"It's okay, can this kind of impeachment of the enemy be compared to wantonly killing a third-grade martial artist?"

"If you have a lot of debts, you can't weigh you down, since you choose to shoulder the responsibility of your parents, don't do half of the work."

Shen Yichen does have a lot of lice and is not afraid of biting, and he has done all the unintentional killings, what is the enemy?

And having said that, even if someone really takes this impeachment, it is estimated that it will be unrealistic for the imperial court to convict and hold accountable for a while, even if Wang Zhen interferes with it.

After all, the dignified three-yuan and first, the "former" scarlet robe officer on the commander's side in the year of the weak crown, how much more could he think about it before he went to join the rebel army?

There is no real evidence, the emperor does not believe it, the officials do not believe it, even if they see the impeachment, they will feel ridiculous!

Instead of worrying about the enemy's guilt, it is better to worry that Xining's skills are not enough, and he can't control the officials of the Fujian Political Division, and expose the real cause of the death of the commander Dou Yi, which is a big trouble.

Bian He, who has always been conservative and steady, heard Shen Yichen's explanation, and he suddenly felt that it seemed to be really the case. There may be too many deviant things to do, and in comparison, "capital enemies" are not a big deal now......

Shen Yichen's every move in the camp of the rebel army was transmitted to Deng Maoqi's ears by the spies almost instantly.

To tell the truth, Deng Maoqi imagined Shen Yichen's various coercion and temptation methods to force himself to agree to the imperial court's recruitment.

Similarly, Deng Maoqi was also ready to meet Fang Yu, who made a move, so that Shen Yichen would return in vain.

But Deng Maoqi didn't expect that Shen Yichen didn't focus on himself, but instead inspected the rebel camp!

It's also ridiculous to say it, the court officials who quell the rebellion can walk in the rebel camp unimpeded, and they are also deeply respected by the soldiers, how will this battle be fought in the future?

"Shen Yichen is really a good means, this trick buys people's hearts from the bottom, it's really hard to guard!"

Deng Maoba said with a sour sentence, it stands to reason that this method of starting from the bottom and mobilizing the power of the masses can be called the patent of the leader of the rebel army. As a result, I never expected that Shen Yichen, a court official, would play better than blue.

However, Chen Jingde, another general of Deng Maoqi, after hearing Shen Yichen's actions, said with emotion: "The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and only Admiral Shen can win the hearts of the people so much. ”

This way of buying people's hearts is not an uncommon and profound strategy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bad street.

But the road is simple, the simpler the thing, the more difficult it is to do, in exchange for any person in the Manchu Dynasty, who dares to walk in the rebel camp like this, who can personally listen to and help the people's suffering?

No matter what camp he is in, Shen Yichen can do this, and he has already won Chen Jingde's respect.

And it's not just him, Deng Maoqi's other henchmen, such as Huang Qin, Liu Zong, Luo Hai and others, also have complicated expressions on their faces, and they don't have the sarcastic attitude they had during the discussion last night.

Is it a good official, many times it is indeed fair and comfortable in the hearts of the people!

Feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Deng Maoba stood up angrily and scolded: "How many court humiliations have we suffered, and how many deaths and lives we have experienced to have today's 100,000 righteous army!" ”

"Now Shen Yichen has a few rhetorical words and pretend to make a gesture, so that you can forget your deep hatred and hatred, and forget your suffering?"

"Shen Yichen, what did he do, can he give real money, or herbs and food?"

Deng Maoba was really full of indignation, not just to help his brother.

The brothers have been killed all the way from birth to death, and how many hardships and hardships have they experienced, and now Shen Yichen has not done anything, just relying on a mouth to say a few words in the barracks, he can buy people's hearts.

When did the human heart become so worthless?

After so many years, the dog officials of the imperial court have not said enough deceptive words in order to oppress and exploit. When the brothers believe and put down their swords and guns, they will be slaughtered like pigs and dogs, and there will be no possibility of resistance.

Seeing Deng Maoba's angry expression, Chen Jingde and the others were speechless.

Deng Maoba was right, Shen Yichen did not do anything other than a worthless promise.

As for trust, how can the rebel army have the capital to talk about these two words in front of the imperial court?

"Brothers, we must be sober-minded and not be deceived by Shen Yichen's words. Once there is a different thinking inside, it will be broken by the imperial court one by one! ”

Seeing that the situation was reversed by his brother, Deng Maoqi's timely speech was final.

Empty words are the biggest loophole of Shen Yichen at present, the rebel soldiers at the bottom are easy to fool, and the top is not so short-sighted.

"The king is right, we must have one heart!"

"Not only must we be firm, but the brothers below must not be deceived by Admiral Shen, otherwise it is easy to cause internal chaos."

"I'll leave the matter of speech to me, and I can't let Admiral Shen accumulate prestige in the army anymore."

Luo Hai stood up and took over this matter, he has been within the rebel army, and he has been responsible for communicating up and down, which happens to be within his authority.

"Okay, I'll take care of this matter for you."

"Yes, Bulldozer King!"

After receiving the order, Luo Hai walked out of the manager's tent and began to gather his henchmen to spread remarks unfavorable to Shen Yichen.

Looking at Luo Hai's back, Deng Maoqi's eyes sharpened, a war that could not see the smoke of gunpowder had started in the rebel camp in advance.
