I saw Mu Xiaoqing riding a horse and running over, dismounted and arched his hand: "Holy Aunt, it's not a big deal." It was the person who was the master of the golden altar in Yanping Mansion, who came down to collect grain and killed three villagers, and the villagers were not satisfied and surrounded the disciples. Please ask the Holy Aunt to show me whether to disperse the villagers? ”

Han Amei said: "The grain levied by this sect has been reduced by half compared with the government, why do the villagers refuse to pay the grain?" ”

At this moment, a woman with a loose hair rushed out of the crowd, and the sergeants immediately pointed their bows and arrows at the woman, and shouted, "Stop! Otherwise, the arrows will be released! ”

The woman was crying out sadly, and Han Amei hurriedly said, "Tell the sergeant not to release the arrow!" Bring the woman of the village over for questioning. ”

The guards hurried over to deliver the message, and then escorted the running village woman over. There were many people standing next to Han Amei Zhang Wen and the others, it was obvious that they were the masters who could speak, and the village woman fell to her knees and kowtowed to Zhang Wen, because Zhang Wen was a man, and the surrounding sergeants were all wearing armor and short clothes, and only Zhang Wen was wearing a long robe. Zhang Wen glanced at Han Amei with some embarrassment, and Han Amei said quietly: "Just ask Lord Zhang to judge this matter." ”

When the village woman heard "Lord Zhang", she hadn't figured out why there was an adult here suddenly, and she couldn't control it, so she called Lord Qingtian with a handful of tears and snot, and she couldn't say anything. Zhang asked and said loudly: "If you want me to be the master, don't cry anymore, I ask you, you answer, I don't ask you, you don't speak, this case is clear, understand?" ”

The village woman was full of anger when she heard Zhang Wen, and she spoke very clearly, so she quieted down and knelt in front of her with her head bowed. Zhang Wen turned around and asked, "Who is literate, come and record a statement." ”

A veteran came out and said, "The lowly can write." ”

Zhang Wen pointed to the crowd in front of him and said, "Come on, first arrest and detain those who collected grain." ”

"Order!"

Zhang asked and waited for the veteran to find a pen and paper, and then said: "Who is kneeling, who is the surname, and where is the person's name, report it." Zhang Wen asked for the basic information very skillfully and asked people to record it all. It's not that Zhang Wen has nothing to do, but he needs evidence, otherwise the lord of the golden altar in the house asked how did you kill my people, what did Zhang Wen say?

"Raise your head and let me see." Zhang Wen said step by step.

The village woman stopped crying, and in the face of such a pomp, she showed a timid look and raised her head timidly. When the people saw the leaders of the official family, they would be afraid, because they rarely saw the big scene. Zhang Wen glanced at the village woman, and saw that although the village woman was scattered, her face was beautiful, and her figure wrapped in coarse cloth clothes was also bumpy.

After asking about the person's name, Zhang Wen began to ask the reason, and in this case, naturally he could not ask the complainant to write a pleading, so he could only ask in person, and then ask someone to record.

Sure enough, the village woman said that the grain collector had taken a fancy to her, so she became lustful and went into the house to rob her. The village woman is already married, how can her husband let his mother-in-law be snatched away? This is unbearable for any man, and her husband can't control the other party's origins, so he resists with a kitchen knife, and is killed instead. Then the followers killed the village woman's father-in-law and mother-in-law and snatched the village woman, which unexpectedly aroused the anger of the people and was surrounded at the entrance of the village.

After listening to the village woman's story, Han Amei was already extremely angry, and said coldly: "Come on, put those scum on the spot!" ”

Zhang Wen didn't stop him, there was nothing wrong with this kind of thing, he took advantage of the moment when the sergeants cut people, and took the veteran who recorded the confession, and found two villagers as witnesses to draw a prisoner, and asked people to keep the confession.

After dealing with these things, Han Amei got into the car angrily, Zhang Wen didn't show much emotion, when he was the magistrate of the county, he had encountered this kind of case a lot, and he was angry and angry, just handle it strictly according to the law. What he was thinking about was that when he encountered this incident, it just made Shenggu understand that what kind of god religion, once it has the power of life and death, it is the same as the government, and it is worse than the official, the government at least cares about the laws of the court, and they are afraid of the gods? God is too mysterious.

The team continued to move forward, Zhang Wen lifted the curtain, and saw that the village girl who had died was holding a few corpses and crying bitterly, he sighed and deliberately said to Han Amei: "Disaster fell from the sky, although she met the holy aunt and avenged her, but she became a helpless widow, and I am afraid that the future will be a little difficult." ”

Han Amei's face was pale, and she estimated that she rarely came out in person to contact the experiences of the lower-class people, and she was a little depressed when she encountered such a thing. At this time, Zhang Ying suddenly said: "I want to take this woman away." ”

Zhang Wen was stunned for a moment, and then realized that such a helpless woman was exactly the person Zhang Ying needed...... She took in all kinds of women everywhere, and then cultivated them to become her "Xuanyi Guard".

Zhang Ying opened the car window, called her two subordinates, and explained: "Take some silver and ask someone to help bury her family and take her away." ”

"Yes, helmsman."

Han Amei was silent for a while, and finally she raised her head and looked at Zhang Wen and said, "Maybe what Master Zhang said is not wrong, we really lack the fire, and it is harmful to others and ourselves to divide the place in this way." ”

Zhang Wen immediately struck while the iron was hot and said: "To govern the prefecture and county, the local officials need to operate on the spot, and the magistrates have the power, and they need to restrain them, and after the constraints, they need a large number of capable talents, and the procedure is very complicated; It is also necessary for counselors to formulate laws and regulations, and many matters are by no means easy. Therefore, the ancients said that it is easy to take the world, but it is difficult to govern the world, which is the truth. ”

"You let me think about it first, Zhao'an is not my business alone." Han Amei said.

In the evening, the army camped and cooked in pots, and then raised their tents to rest for the night. Zhang Wen and his wife lived in a tent, and when Zhang Ying waited for Zhang Wen to wash, he said in a low voice: "If the prime minister recruits Han Amei, won't there be an extra private soldier in his hand?" ”

Zhang Wen was taken aback, and said in a deep voice: "This kind of thing can't be listened to by others, otherwise they will think that I Zhang Wen has bad intentions!" ”

Zhang Ying said in a deep voice: "Could it be that the prime minister can't even believe Ying'er?" ”

"No, just be careful." Zhang Wen's heart was cold, he secretly thought to himself, he was indeed developing his own power intentionally or unintentionally, and this thought made him a little afraid. Could it be that he is the same as Ye Feng, and already has huge ambitions?

Zhang Ying lowered her voice and said: "The Shen family is rich and rivals the country, and Miss Shen has a deep affection for the prime minister, and she is a trustworthy person; The Xuanyi guard in the concubine's hand, the intelligence has penetrated into several provinces, and it can be used by the minister; Although the main force of the Wenzhou battalion formed by Xianggong suffered heavy losses, a cadre of staff and generals were still there, which were the strength of Xianggong; Now, if the prime minister recruits Han Amei and makes her cousin Mu Xiaoqing the chief soldier of Fujian, we can expand our military strength and become a force that obeys our orders......"

After his wife Zhang Ying broke it so little, Zhang Wen realized that he did have a potential force that could not be underestimated, not even worse than Ye Feng. He pondered for a long time, the Ming Dynasty was difficult to support, why did Lao Tzu drown with him, why didn't he take advantage of the situation to secretly dig into the corner of the wall to fatten himself?

Although Ye Feng was Zhang Wen's enemy, some of Ye Feng's original words made Zhang Wen agree very much, when the old dynasty was difficult to return, it was the time to do great things!

The more Zhang Wen thought about it, the more excited he became, he tried his best to suppress his bad intentions, and said to Zhang Ying: "It's not time yet, Ying'er must be cautious...... The chess halls left by Ye Feng can not only earn a lot of wealth, but also infiltrate the officialdom, Ying'er can find someone to take over, and I will open up the relationship on the official side. ”

Zhang Ying said with a smile: "Hangzhou Chess Hall is such a fat, Ye Feng and Qian Yiqian are down, no one cares, I have taken the opportunity to find someone to take over, and I will take care of the important people in the officialdom in Zhejiang." Xianggong only needs to find someone who can protect him in the court and let him divide it, and everything will be foolproof. ”

Zhang Wen was a little surprised when he heard this, it turned out that women can do big things like that! He thought about it with some wonder, the big dark forces around him seemed to be his own women...... He muttered: "Father-in-law Wei has great power in his hands, he is a good candidate, I have to bring him some gifts when I go back to the court this time." ”

"In the more than half a year since Xianggong left the imperial court, there have been changes in the imperial court. Grandpa Wei is not necessarily reliable! ”

"Oh?" Zhang Wen asked eagerly, "What news have you found?" ”

Zhang Ying said in Zhang Wen's ear: "Last time, Xiang Gong stabbed out a large group of Donglin Party officials from the West Lake Chess Hall, and the Wei Party took the opportunity to attack the Donglin Party, and even the first and auxiliary ministers were beheaded. Now in the officialdom, as long as there is a suspicion of the Donglin Party, it will be suppressed by all sides. Wei Zhongxian's power leaned towards the government and the opposition, which made the emperor jealous, and the emperor had asked Wei Zhongxian to hand over the position of the commander of the East Factory and let Wang Tiqian take charge of the East Factory.

This Wang Ti Qianming and Wei Zhongxian are the same family, but they have become a huge threat to replace Wei Zhongxian. Gu Bingyao, the new minister of first assistant affairs, has a good personal relationship with Wang Tiqian, and most of the people in the cabinet are old people from the former Zhejiang Party, not Wei Zhongxian's sons and grandchildren. All this information is collected in Xuanyiwei, and Xianggong can take a look at it when he returns to Zhejiang. ”

The door of the tent was facing the north, and Zhang Wen couldn't help but look up at the sky to the north from the door, where there were many stars, but there was no celestial phenomenon. Zhang Wen groaned: "The emperor understands it in his heart...... I have a personal relationship with the Holy Aunt, and I must not let Jinyiwei inquire about it! Also, West Lake Chess Hall, Ying'er don't come forward in person, I can't be involved, I have to find someone else to contact someone in the court! ”

Zhang Ying was stunned and said: "Xianggong is too cautious. ”

Zhang Wen said coldly: "Ye Feng has been hiding behind the White Lotus Sect for so long, and in the end, he was still put to the end of his power in the officialdom, a lesson from the past!" There are so many people in the court, what we are doing is to be the enemy of the entire court, we must guard against it! Slowly accumulating is the best policy, you must not be exposed too early, you are not the opponent of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and I am not the opponent of the imperial court! ”

The two talked for a while, Zhang Wen hugged Zhang Ying and lay down, he couldn't sleep for a long time, don't be busy making wedding clothes for others for a long time, there is no place to cry.

At the beginning, Zhang Wen was lucky to win the battle of Jianyu in Liaodong, but these did not cause them a decisive blow, and Jianyu soon caught fire again, and at the beginning of the first year of the Apocalypse, all the important towns in Liaodong were captured, and all the east of the Liaohe River fell into the hands of the enemy!

When Zhang asked the cranky mouth, Zhang Ying in his arms was not hot, and he couldn't help but say softly: "Ying'er, I remember that you were not interested in power before, how can you ......?"

Zhang Yingyu said: "I remember that when I was in Zhujiazhuang, Ying'er persuaded Xianggong to go into hiding, but Xianggong did not agree. Ying'er understands what is most important in Xianggong's heart, so Ying'er understands that she can only support Xianggong wholeheartedly...... When you become the emperor in the future, I will be the queen, so that future generations will know that we are a pair arranged by God, and I will make our love famous for all generations......"

"Ying'er...... You can't be too anxious, in case things fail, my death is a life, but you are my woman, what kind of misfortune will be? ”

Zhang Ying hugged Zhang Wen tightly and said softly: "Ying'er listens to everything." ”

Zhang Wen's mind was a little dizzy, and his mind was a little trance, mainly because all these plans were too crazy, which made him a little confused...... He was even a little scared, because he was familiar with history books, and there were many rebels, but only one succeeded in a few hundred years!

After sleeping for one night, the next morning, the army had breakfast, and then continued to set off for Yanping Mansion. Han Amei invited Zhang Wen to her car again, and Mu Xiaoqing also got into the carriage. Han Amei closed the doors and windows tightly, and couldn't wait to whisper: "I thought about it all night, and I discussed it with Mu Xiaoqing again. I promised Mr. Zhang to accept the court's recruitment, how is Mr. Zhang going to arrange? ”

Zhang Wen was overjoyed when he heard this, and now he has the miraculous work of recovering the entire Fujian again! He held back his excitement and lowered his head to think carefully about his next step.

At this time, Han Amei said again: "Zhang Wen, it doesn't matter if I die, but these people under me are my relatives and fellow villagers, and I can't harm them." I trust you so much, you can't ......" Her voice trembled a little, and she could hear that she was a little scared.

Zhang Wen raised his head and said calmly: "In front of my wife, I absolutely don't want her to think that her man is an unreliable person, in front of her, I assure you that you are not wrong to believe me." ”

Zhang Ying was moved in her heart after hearing this, and clenched Zhang Wen's hand.
