Chapter 115: Redemption by Name

Tian Shouxin heard Chongzhen's explosion, Li Yan shouted, and then dodged, rushed to Chongzhen, flew up, and kicked the storyteller to the ground.

The soldiers were also quick to react, and they all rushed up and took the storyteller down, and someone brought him a rope and tied him in a strong knot.

"Your Majesty, the grass people have no evil intentions!" The man couldn't stop shouting, "Li Yan, help me intercede, I'm here to take refuge sincerely!" ”

Li Yan walked over quickly, did not respond at all, and respectfully bowed to Chongzhen.

"Li Yan, is this person Song Xiance?" Chongzhen asked.

When the man heard this, he looked astonished and stopped shouting.

Li Yan said: "This person is Song Xiance, the thief military master. ”

Zhu Youjian nodded, turned his head and asked: "I calculated that my Ming Dynasty fortune is coming to an end, and proposed 'eighteen children as the main artifact', but you?" ”

Song Xiance's face turned pale and nodded in acknowledgement.

"It was you who planned roundabout tactics for the thieves to make Yang Wenyue exhausted and finally defeated?" Zhu Youjian asked again.

Song Xiance looked panicked and kowtowed in acknowledgement.

"Helped Li Thief build a country in Xi'an, agreed on a strategy, set up officials to defend the land, was named the 'Founding Army Division', and when he retreated to Beijing, he was forced to leave the thief camp by Niu Jinxing, but you?"

Song Xiance's heart is like ashes, he is really a heinous person for Daming, and now he has thrown himself into the net, and he can be regarded as smart but mistaken by cleverness.

His eyes were gloomy, he couldn't help sighing, he glanced up, and when he saw Li Yan, his mind lit up.

hurriedly said: "The grass people were deceived by others and did the most heinous things, and I implore the emperor to give the grass people a chance to reform and make up for their mistakes." ”

Chongzhen listened and ignored it.

Li Yan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Song Xiance is proficient in Liuyao Bagua, Zhou Yi and Qimen Dunjia, and is a rare talent. ”

Song Xiance listened and glanced at Li Yan gratefully, but Li Yan's eyes were blazing and he didn't look at him.

"There are many people in the world who are proficient in thaumaturgy, why should I use a rebellious person. Drag it out, cut it! Chongzhen said lightly.

When the sergeants heard this, they hurriedly mentioned Song Xiance and dragged them into the distance.

"Your Majesty, the grass people are willing to go to Liaodong, go into battle to kill the enemy, and make up for their mistakes......" Song Xiance was anxious and shouted loudly.

Chongzhen glanced at Tian Shouxin, and Tian Shouxin hurriedly stepped forward and chased after the team of soldiers.

Song Xiance saw that Chongzhen ignored him, and the eunuchs around him came all the way, and said in his heart that he was here to be beheaded, and he was extremely remorseful.

"It's better to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests and cultivate immortals and enlighten the Tao."

Before he could think about it, the soldier quickly pressed him to the ground, lifted the black hair at the back of his neck, exposed his skin, and raised the butcher's knife high.

Song Xiance was desperate and slowly closed his eyes.

When Li Yan saw this, his heart was sad, he knelt down again, and said in a loud voice:

"Your Majesty, Song Xiance is really talented, he can be sent to Liaodong, and the Marquis of Liaodong and others will be strictly disciplined, and in the future, he will definitely be able to make contributions to the imperial court!"

"Go get him back." Chongzhen was expressionless and said in a low voice.

Li Yan was overjoyed, hurriedly got up, ran over, and shouted: "Keep people under the knife!" ”

Tian Shouxin had been waiting for this for a long time, and hurriedly stopped the execution, and asked Song Xiance to escort him back to Chongzhen.

"Song Xiance, let me ask you, how should I calm Liao?" Chongzhen directly threw out a grand strategic question.

Song Xiance was shocked, and subconsciously replied: "Kill them by force, educate them, and immigrate." ”

Chongzhen smiled: "From today on, Song Xiance no longer exists, you take redemption as your surname and your name as your name, go to Liaodong to help Wu Sangui govern the place, and you must no longer have different intentions." ”

"The grass people have redeemed, the emperor Xie gave the name, and the grass people will use what they have learned all their lives to serve the court!"

Chongzhen ignored him and took Li Yan back to the mansion.

After Hua Feng knelt down, he sat on the ground and muttered, "Scared me to death, scared me to death......"

In the government, Li Yan reported to Chongzhen in detail the experience of dividing fields in North China's provinces, and at the same time sorted out and reported on the various problems and solutions encountered in the use of agricultural tools and the sowing of new crops.

"You're doing a good job."

"The emperor praises falsely." Li Yan bowed.

"Although you have merit, you are not enough to atone for your sin!" Chongzhen said sharply.

When Li Yan heard this, he said: "In the early years, the grass people assisted the thieves to attack the city and plunder the land, and the crime was extremely evil, and they never thought of being rewarded by the emperor. If you can do something practical for the people, you will be satisfied. ”

Li Yan only talked about the crime of the rogue, and did not mention the crime of trespassing committed by following the king.

When Chongzhen heard this, he didn't break it, and continued: "This side of Shanxi, you should be very familiar with it, I order you to quickly lead people to carry out an agrarian revolution, select some suitable crops, and replant them as soon as possible." All land, except for some military land, was distributed to the people, and did not have to be left to the emperor and nobles. ”

Li Yan knelt down and kowtowed solemnly: "The grass people must do their best." ”

"Alright, you go down."

……

Li Yan acted quickly, and began to send people to measure the land on the same day, and at the same time counted the population by means of the running accounts of distributing money and subdividing houses, and on the third day, he began to divide the land with 100 households as one first.

At the same time, "Chongzhen Chongzhen, the fields are divided equally."

Plough the fields, work hard, plough and harvest

The Ming court did not Latin and did not accept grain. And other slogans began to spread.

The government and private blacksmith shops also began to make every effort to create new agricultural tools.

In the palace, Chongzhen carefully analyzed and saw a number of military reports sent by the Long Army and Jinyiwei, and knew that Jianyu, Li Zicheng, and Zhang Xianzhong were fighting in Hanzhong.

Zhu Youjian deduced that none of the three forces in Hanzhong had the ability to counterattack Shanxi, so he allocated a large number of soldiers and handed them over to Li Yan, hoping that the agrarian revolution would spread quickly throughout the province.

He himself took a team of elite people and made a private visit.

For half a month, Zhu Youjian has been patrolling all over Jinzhong and Jinnan.

Seeing the neat fields, the rapid popularization of new agricultural tools, the beginning of the construction of the Ming Imperial Temple, and the satisfaction on the faces of the people, Zhu Youjian was relieved and went all the way to the east.

After passing through Lu'an Mansion, crossing the Taihang Mountains, and going directly to the border of Henan, Zhu Youjian was in a good mood when he saw the lush farmland on the Yellow River Impact Plain and the newly built villages.

At the same time, he also found that the people of Henan revered King Ding, and some of them only knew the king and did not know the prince, and even the prestige of his emperor among the people was not as good as that of the king.

Traveling to Handan, Chongzhen received a battle report from Daning.

Li Yutian has besieged Daning for more than a month, and the food has already been prepared, and artillery and other siege equipment have also arrived, making all preparations for the general attack.

At the same time, Li Yutian mentioned that there were people in Daning City who had contacted the outside world many times, secretly reported the military situation, and at the same time, said that they were preparing to attack inside and outside.

Since Chongzhen had previously stated that Li Yutian was fully responsible for this battle, this battle report only stated the specific situation of the Daning war, not a request.

Zhu Youjian read it carefully, was noncommittal, and only replied in eight words: careful analysis and careful decision-making.

At the same time, Li Yutian, who was far away in Daning, received a letter from Daning City again.

He muttered to himself: "Who is it that keeps sending information out of the city?" Judging by the content of the intelligence, this person should be a person with a high status in the city, why did he take the initiative to surrender? Will there be fraud? ”

Li Yutian didn't dare to believe it, but just ordered to go down, and the general attack tomorrow will go as planned, and once he enters the city, don't hurt the soldiers with black cloth on their heads.
