Chapter 037: Mr. Jingda
"The box is in my hand." Chen Jing had no intention of hiding it. To have this helmsman in person has already said a lot.
"I have a few things to ask before giving the box. You know, I'm a businessman, and the town is always in trouble, and I'm going to sit and eat empty. ”
Yuan Siqiao thought for a moment, "You ask." ”
"In Ping'an Town, all the people in the rivers and lakes who appeared listened to you?"
"You guessed it early in the morning."
"Why do you want to enter the town and fight with the officers and soldiers? Or rather, who are you trying to protect? ”
Yuan Siqiao didn't speak immediately, turned his head, and looked at the night outside the carriage.
"Even if I don't say it, according to your temperament, sooner or later you will have to find out."
Yuan Siqiao retracted his gaze, sighed, and his voice gradually sounded.
"Qingfeng rudder was created one hundred and forty years ago, at that time, it was to kill all the corrupt officials in the world and return the wind to the world. After more than 100 years, many people have finally discovered that corrupt officials are inexhaustible, and dry grass grows again. Later, I met a man who told me that the most effective way should be to get rid of bad government, restore all kinds of waste, and replace the rotten blood of the whole dynasty with a new method. ”
Chen Jing's body trembled slightly.
It's really beaten, and the people of the rivers and lakes, under the leadership of the chief helmsman, belong to the group that supports the change.
"Chief Helmsman Yuan, who is the person you are talking about?"
Yuan Siqiao was silent, "Our group of followers, respect him as Mr. Big." ”
"Mr. Da is the deputy minister of the court, the former prince's teacher, and the champion of Daxing for thirteen years. Today, it oversees the various reforms and reforms. Previously, he went to Jiangnan to supervise and reform the border army in the south. ”
The name of the Daxing era is the first emperor of Daran, and now that the new emperor has been on the throne for three years, it has already been replaced by the name of the Liwu year.
"The new emperor supports the change of the law, leads by example, and Mr. Zeng, Mr. Big, does not go out of the palace for half a month, and discusses various matters related to the change of the law. This is the trend of the times, and those corrupt families who obstruct the change of the law are nothing more than stubborn resistance and protecting the interests of the family. ”
Chen Jing carefully combed through the information and found that it was just as he thought. It is even possible that Ping'an Town continues to transfer battalion troops to block the way from Ping'an Town to Beijing, that is to say, the one who is going to enter the capital recently-
"It's Mr. Big."
Yuan Siqiao was facing the sky with his back, and his voice was yearning.
"I, Yuan Siqiao, have never seen anyone like Mr. Big in my life. It stands to reason that he would have had a better choice. For him, the princess did not hesitate to show her face, and implored the first emperor to give an order to recruit him as a concubine. ”
At that time, Mr. Big was the champion of the ages, and Princess Xizhu was a beauty who captivated the country and the city, knowing etiquette and virtue, and being kind and beautiful in the world. The two have a strong affection, and they once had a white-headed appointment. When everyone thought that talented and beautiful women had become a beautiful talk for the ages...... Mr. Big refused to marry. For this reason, he was also removed from his official position by the first emperor. It wasn't until the new emperor ascended the throne that he had the opportunity to re-enter the court. ”
"Brother Chen, tell me, why did Mr. Big refuse the imperial marriage?"
Chen Jing thought for a while and said calmly, "Da Ran has a law of death, if you become a concubine, you can't participate in politics." ”
Yuan Siqiao laughed, and there was a trace of sadness in his voice.
"Look at the world, there are always many people who can't help themselves. Just like Mr. Big, he is willing to give up his face and join the country, help the new emperor change the law, save the dynasty in the building, and save the people in dire straits. ”
"This is the second year of the reform, and the reform implemented by Mr. Big has been properly implemented in the south. Tenants can borrow grain from the government to open up the wasteland, and after cultivating the land for five years, it can be used as private land. The reform of the border army has abandoned the bottomless pit of empty salaries, and the pensions for those killed in battle will also be directly transferred by the supervision envoys. There is also the market to stop the monopoly of the giants and the chamber of commerce, set up a business house, and stabilize all kinds of prices in the disaster year...... In the seven states in the south, the people are grateful, and I can't count how many ancestral halls of the great gentleman have been erected...... This time, Mr. Da returned to Beijing with the intention of thoroughly implementing the reform of the law in the six prefectures near Jingyi, using the south as an example. ”
"In this way, it will move the interests of many people."
"Naturally. The old foxes in the capital have regarded Mr. Big as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. Outside the capital, five hundred miles south of Zhizhou, Zhenzhou will be a loyal man, sending 10,000 soldiers and horses to escort Mr. Big along the way. However, due to Ran Lu, the army of foreign generals was not allowed to step into the Jingyi area at will. ”
"Therefore, the three or four hundred miles from the border of Jingyi to the capital are the most dangerous places. Among them, Ping'an Town is the only way to go. Xu Lingjun, the defender of the town, has the unparalleled courage of 'one person retreats from a hundred armors'. Around Xu Lingjun, there are many eagle dogs and thousands of battalion soldiers who have been transferred abroad. ”
"But no matter what, Mr. Big must return to Beijing safely."
"In this world, Mr. Big is the last light of the dynasty."
Chen Jing was silent when he listened. He suddenly understood why Feng Chang wanted to abandon his family business and follow these things. Why is the Huaizhou scholar who admonishes the heavenly prince so sad and angry that he bites the poison and commits suicide. Why is it that none of the seventeen people on the arrest warrant are willing to be traitors?
Some people do not want to live in decay and dullness, and do not want to live between dead trees and dead grass. As if dying, he followed the last light in the world, hoping that under this light, the luster of Nirvana's rebirth could be seen everywhere.
And to put it mildly. If the Great Ran Dynasty continues to decay, sooner or later it will be slowly eaten and swallowed by the Di Kingdom in the north.
"The road is long and obstructive, but there are some things that someone must do, otherwise, there will be no breeze in the world and the world. Or there may be a death, but how magnificent it is to be able to die as it deserves. When he said this, Yuan Siqiao's eyes had a certain hope.
Chen Jing didn't hesitate any longer, got up, took out a wooden box in the haystack on the edge of the racecourse, and put it in front of Yuan Siqiao.
Yuan Siqiao was stunned, and the whole person laughed.
"I thought I would have to follow you up a few mountains to find it. I'm getting more and more incomprehensible to you. ”
Chen Jing also smiled.
The gentleman smiled. From the wooden box to my hand and back to my husband, I never opened it. You people should also have the means to distinguish between them, such as pulling the hair, or hiding some small mechanism, which will be known at a glance when the time comes. ”
"Aren't you curious? If you change to someone else, you should be able to open it up and take a look. ”
Chen Jing shook his head, "In my hometown, there is an old saying that curiosity kills cats. And I, Chen Jing, have always been a cautious person. ”
"Admire." Yuan Siqiao's gaze stopped at Chen Jing for a long time.
"I've heard about your bandits, do you know, why do I have to say so much today?"
"Guessed it." Chen nodded his head.
"How?"
"I don't plan to do it yet."
Yuan Siqiao sighed and nodded, without any reluctance. He stood up, his eyes reluctant.
"Chief Helmsman Yuan, is it worth it?"
Yuan Siqiao thought for a while, "This sentence should not be asked to me, nor should it be asked to Mr. Big, nor should it be asked to Your Majesty, nor should it be asked to Xu Lingjun's eagle dogs, or the eight families in the capital." It is the people of the Hereafter who are to be asked. ”
"Whether it's worth it or not, we don't count, it's just taking a path that no one dares to take. Meritorious deeds through the ages, engraved in bamboo books. ”
"And we people are just a few strokes on the bamboo book."
Yuan Siqiao put away the wooden box and hesitated, "I'm in a good mood tonight, can I have a few drinks with Brother Chen." ”
"Yes."
Xing Xiaojiu turned around and ran towards the racecourse, and after a while, he took out the wine jar and bowl. Give yourself the owner, as well as Yuan Siqiao in front of you, and fill a bowl each.
The mountain wind blew, and the robes on his body whirred.
Chen Jing picked up the wine bowl.
Yuan Siqiao also laughed and rose with the wine. At this moment, the chief helmsman who was worried about the world slowly regained his true colors as a Jianghu person.
"Acquaintance."
"Acquaintance."
……
"Mr. Jingda."
……
"Respect me for thousands of great Ran Erlang, one day, the south looks at the tower and breaks the north Di!"
