Taiyuan Province.

Shanxi Cheng announced the political envoy to the Yamen.

Guan Xian, the political envoy, was sitting in front of his big case, worrying about the immigration plan given by the household department.

From time to time, circle the dots with a brush.

The political envoy Si Zuo Senator came in a hurry and whispered in Guan Xian's ear.

"What? The King of Jin sent troops to forcibly arrest people? ”

Guan Xian stood up suddenly.

"Yes, even the gentry have been arrested, and most of the Cheng family, a big squire in Hongdong County, has also been arrested."

Senator Zuo handed over the notice in his hand as he spoke, and continued: "King Jin said that Hongdong County is only the first, and if the prefectures and counties of Taiyuan and Pingyang do not immigrate on time, the whole family, regardless of the old and the young, will have to be arrested!" ”

Guan Xian took a look at it, and his face stretched longer: "Why is this notice issued in the name of the political envoy Si Yamen?" ”

He's a political envoy, but he doesn't know about it?

Zuo Senator said: "It was inscribed by Nadu Shiding, saying that it was an errand given to him by the King of Jin, and he didn't dare to disobey." ”

Guan Xian's face suddenly turned cold: "I don't know what to do, I will take him down according to the judge!" ”

Senator Zuo said: "My lord, even if you take the Ding question, the notice has been sent out for many days, but I am afraid that many people have already rushed to Hongdong County." ”

The government has issued this kind of announcement, which is considered an ultimatum, where do the people dare to resist?

I didn't dare to wait and see, so I could only respond to the call.

Look at the content of the notice: "All immigrants must go to Guangji Temple in Hongdong County to go through the relocation procedures and receive a license to Sichuan money, and those who do not want to move must also go here to ...... the government and the central government."

Guan Xian's expression gradually became solemn, and he said slowly: "King Jin's move, I'm afraid it's a temptation!" ”

He has been an official for many years, and he can see at a glance the hidden routine in the notice.

The immigrants, whether they want to or not, will come to Guangji Temple in Hongdong County to gather.

Now that they are here, can they still go?

If you ignore the notice and don't come?

Today's Hongdong County is the end.

Even harsher!

As King Jin said: "If you don't expect to come, the government will come to arrest people, and when the whole family doesn't matter how many people there are, they will all be forcibly moved out!" ”

It is a method of conscription and coercion.

Senator Zuo seemed to have caught a big handle, and said in surprise: "My lord, are we going to write to the court to impeach the king of Jin?" ”

In his opinion, if he can get the king of Jin, it will inevitably attract the attention of the grandson of the emperor of the East Palace.

"Impeachment of King Jin? Do you have a brain disease? ”

Guan Xian said leisurely: "The official impeached the vassal king, do you want the official to cut off his own future?" ”

Who doesn't know that the Holy Protector is short today?

The official said, "Then let King Hu of Jin come?" ”

Guan Xian said meaningfully: "Regardless of him, the immigration strategy is the imperial court's plan, as long as our mission in Shanxi can be accomplished." ”

"Besides, this is what the King of Jin did, and the people can't scold us, and it's also good for the emperor's grandson."

Guan Xian knew that as a high-ranking official, it was best not to get involved in the royal struggle.

As long as he reported the matter to the East Palace in advance, there would naturally be someone in the court to deal with the King of Jin.

......

Pingyang Mansion, Jiangxi, Shanxi.

A large five-hole stone bridge made of bluestone spans the Fen River with great vigour.

It was clearly a major transportation artery, and many people were waiting to cross the bridge.

Most of them are young and strong, carrying their belongings one by one, and arranging a big long dragon like a disaster.

At the head of the bridge, there was a group of soldiers, and a person who looked like a county official was directing the traffic.

Several businessman-like people stood silently aside, calmly watching.

Ji Gang and several Jinyi guards were ordered to Shanxi.

It's all this kind of scene along the way.

An old man walked over with a burden, and when he saw that Ji Gang was not in line, he glanced at it and stepped in directly.

Ji Gang stepped forward: "Uncle." ”

The old man thought that the other party was coming to find fault, so he hurriedly carried the flat shoulder and prepared to get out of the way.

Ji Gang stepped forward to stop him: "May I ask my uncle, where are you going?" ”

The old man looked at a few people in surprise and asked, "How many of them are not locals?" ”

Ji Gang said: "The next is a merchant who is going to Taiyuan from Shandong to do business, passing through Guidi. ”

The old man sighed: "I see, since you are outsiders, you don't need to go to Hongdong County." ”

"To Hongdong County?"

"Yes, the immigrants from Taiyuan and Pingyang have to go to Guangji Temple in Hongdong County to concentrate under the big locust tree."

The old man added: "It's a notice issued by the Yamen of Shanxi's political envoy, and I heard that the imperial court has also sent a prince to supervise, so if you don't go, you can't do it!" ”

A middle-aged man next to him clattered and said: "It's okay if you don't want to move away, didn't the notice say that you can come here to ask the government for help, it's a big deal to spend some silver." ”

At this time, the officials at the head of the bridge shouted to this side: "Hurry up and cross the bridge!" Don't stay there all the time! Walk another twenty miles to eat! ”

The incident in Hongdong County made the people of Taiyuan and Pingyang panic.

They rushed to Hongdong County in droves.

I saw that the road was full of people who dragged their families.

Fortunately, along the way, the government was in charge of eating and drinking, and the people's complaints were much less.

Ji Gang looked at it for a while, found a place where no one was, and disguised himself as an ordinary person and blended into the crowd.

Only half a month after Zhu Li, the king of Jin, issued a notice, crowds of people from more than a dozen prefectures and counties in Taiyuan and Pingyang Prefecture poured into Hongdong County.

In Guangji Temple, cigarette smoke fills the air.

Near the mountain gate, there is an office that looks like a yamen.

"Quiet" and "avoid" cards are erected on both sides, and in the middle is the public case of the four treasures of the study, on which there are shocking woods and orders.

At the back of the case hangs a map, which officials used to study the direction and route of the relocation.

At this time, thousands of people gathered under the big locust tree of Guangji Temple in Hongdong County, and the noise soared to the sky.

"Don't squeeze, come one by one!"

The shouts of the officials came and went.

There are two public cases in front of the door, one of which is a small public case that handles various relocation procedures.

On the other hand, the public case is used to register immigrants.

There were also several large chests next to them, filled with silver ingots and copper coins to spend on the migrants' journey.

Here, the immigrants took the relocation certificates, filled them out by the scribes, and then went to the public office on the other side to receive the Sichuan capital, and they were moved.

Suddenly, there was a shout in front of the public case, and a young man was arguing with the officials.

"Didn't the notice say that those who don't want to move can go here to report to the government? I don't want to move! ”

"You don't want to settle or not? Take the Sichuan capital voucher and hurry up to line up! ”

The young man shouted: "I won't move!" You liar! ”

Soon, the people who did not want to move away realized that they had been deceived by the government, and there was a commotion in the crowd.

Suddenly, the ground of the mountain gate of Guangji Temple trembled faintly, like the sound of a large group of people and horses marching.

The crowd turned their heads.

It was found that a large number of soldiers and horses had surrounded Guangji Temple.

They were all dressed in armor, and they ran with the sound of armor and leaves colliding.

Zhu Li, the king of Jin, mobilized 30,000 soldiers and horses in Shanxi!

It's not an ordinary officer and soldier, it's all a regular army that has been on the battlefield!

Everyone was shocked, and after a short exclamation at the scene, it gradually quieted down.

At this time, Zhu Li appeared, he rode a tall horse, and came to the crowd with his body upright.

He raised his horsewhip and said loudly: "All the people who come to the place, whether men, women, children, or women, will not be left behind!" ”
