Volume 1: Born to be a Hero Chapter 184: Acting as a Yang

"Although the master is gone, there are still a few enlightened people who are still in Rongzhou, and if my brother wants to envelop him, he has to speed up. If the delay is too long, I am afraid that others will take the lead. ”

"My brother is pregnant with the world, and sooner or later he will compete with the heroes and seek the world. If these talents are recruited by others, they will become the fierce rivals of their brothers......"

Red Sleeves whispered to He Yi.

Although she is Yuan Yi's apprentice, after all, she is just a female streamer, and she is a singer from the Qinglou, so she is humble, so she naturally can't respond like Yuan Yi.

So after a long time, most of the enlightened people chose to leave, or return to the mountains, incognito, or go elsewhere and start over.

Red Sleeves didn't want to watch this part of the power and turn to the future enemy, so that the former siblings would one day meet each other.

That's more than worth the cost......

"Oh, could it be that there are other forces in this Rongzhou that are ready to recruit troops and raise troops to resist?" He Yi said suspiciously.

If so, that's a lot more interesting.

Red Sleeves shook his head lightly and said, "It's not from Rongzhou, but it should still be in Rongzhou at the moment." The man's surname was Chu, and he was said to be a descendant of the royal family of the former Chu Kingdom, and many enlightened people in the northern land had been enveloped by him. ”

He Yi was about to pick up the wine jug, but he was stunned when he heard the words, and said: "The person my sister said is not Wenzhou Nancheng, Chu Chengcang?"

Red Sleeves said suspiciously: "Brother also knows about this person?"

He Yi nodded slightly and said, "When I was practicing the Qi Sect, I had already seen him. This person is ambitious, informal, and quite gentlemanly, and his subordinates Yao Ji, Mu Yue, Lan Qiu, Zhang Zhonglin, etc., are all characters who can take charge of themselves. ”

Red Sleeves frowned slightly, and said: "That Chu clan has the heart of usurpation, after years of Taoguang cultivation, its reputation in the south is not small, and there are countless customers, and most of them are enlightened people, known as the "Eight Hundred Enlightenment". In the past two years, Chu Chengcang left the south and traveled everywhere, trying to gather enlightened people from all over the world to serve him, which shows the great ambition of his ambition. If the elder brother wants to make trouble, this person will definitely be a difficult opponent in the future. ”

He Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Let him go, can I still stop people from winning people's hearts?"

In He Yi's heart, his positioning is very clear.

He is determined to be in the world, not in winning the world.

He Yi's original intention was to expel the puppets of the immortal sect all over Kyushu, and eliminate the holy immortals who invaded the world and poisoned the community, so as to make up for his mistake of introducing monks into the court.

The second is to kill back to the imperial city, rescue the holy driver, avenge his father, and restore his family's innocence......

It's just these two things that almost exhaust all of He Yi's energy.

He really couldn't imagine a false enemy anymore.

That Chu Zhicang, if he can lead a group of enlightened people to completely clean up the immortal gates in various states and counties in the south, it can be regarded as helping himself in disguise.

So why not?

As for the future, it will be the best in the world...... He Yi really hadn't thought about it.

If the emperor is still sage, he would rather return the territory in his hands and then find a secluded place to live in seclusion.

That's the life I really want to live......

"What do you mean to go with him?" Hearing this, Red Sleeves glared at He Yi dissatisfied, and said, "Brother Mo doesn't have the help of immortals, so he looks down on us enlightened people?"

He Yi hurriedly explained: "Where is this! I am often troubled by the lack of talents on the side, if my sister has a way, it is too late for me to be happy!"

"Then it's settled. Red Sleeves clapped his hands happily, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Brother is about to move to Yangcheng...... There is a pair of twin brothers and sisters living in seclusion in Dangyang, both of them are talented, Chu Chengcang asked them to go out of the mountain three times without success, my brother went to Dangyang, we must seize the opportunity is ......"

Red Sleeves recommended the two of them one after another.

"Oh, then I'm going to see it. He Yi suddenly became interested.

can actually make a person like Chu Chengcang invite out of the mountain even if he doesn't hesitate to visit the thatched house......

This does not make He Yi look forward to it very much.

......

Count them in a flash.

After handling all the affairs in Huyang City, He Yi was ready to move to Dangyang City to carry out the next move.

A few years ago, when Yang Taishou had replied to He Yi's mansion, the letter expressed that he welcomed He Yi's arrival, and faintly talked about the spiritual property, as if he wanted to ask He Yi for more.

In this regard, He Yi sneered several times in a row.

There is no shortage of spiritual property in He Yi's hands.

You want it, I have it.

It's up to you to be able to afford it......

Compared with the vast and sparsely populated area of Huyang City, Dangyang City is more prosperous and has a larger population.

Dangyang City is located in the southernmost part of Rongzhou, close to the boundary of Qingzhou, and borders the ferry outside Qingzhou Bohai City, which is a commercial artery, so there are many business travelers passing through, which brings great benefits to the economy of Dangyang City.

Moreover, because of the proximity to the Bohai River, the land around Dangyang City is extremely fertile, with thousands of hectares of fertile land, which is known as the granary of Rongzhou.

Whoever could take the land would be enough to supply an army of 100,000 men with the grain they produced each year.

The reason why the Beirong Army, which was dominant for a while, was able to crisscross the north, level the dogs, and destroy the Huns, all relied on the supply of Dangyang City.

"Yu Zhi, what kind of spleen is this Yang Taishou?"

After a hurry, the carriage and horses traveled to the outside of Dangyang City, He Yi lifted the curtain, glanced at the towering city wall, and asked in a low voice while observing the appearance of its defenders.

On this trip, in addition to the red sleeves, He Yi also took Li Ai and Jiang Sheng with him.

The reason why Li Ai was allowed to accompany him was because he had lived in Dangyang City for a long time before, and he was familiar with this place.

As for Jiang Sheng, as the former third young master of the Zhao family, he has been running the spiritual property business for the Qi Sect, and in the coming years, he naturally has dealt with the Xiuzhen family in Dangyang City.

With the two of them by his side, it can also save a lot of trouble.

Li Ai took the reins of the horse and slowly entered the city, and deposited the horse in the post house, and then replied: "My lord, that is too much to keep the name of Ma Shang, but he is a little bit talented and practical, but he is too greedy and stingy. The tax of Dangyang City is three percent higher than that of Huyang, but the military salary is still two percent lower than that of Huyang. Last time, Bailongzhai led the army to attack Dangyang City, just a little trick, and successfully rebelled against the city gate defenders hundreds, if it weren't for the fact that there were just a few monks from the Wuyingshan Danding faction in the city, I was afraid that the city would be lost that day. ”

"It seems that this man is not to be afraid. It's this White Dragon Village...... What is sacred?" He Yi was deeply curious.

During this period of time, He Yi heard the name of this White Dragon Village more than several times.

It is to capture the city again, and it is to fight against the immortal gate......

Such a blatant rebellion has done everything He Yi wanted to do but didn't dare to do for the time being.

If it weren't for the troubles, he really wanted to make friends with the White Dragon Village.

After all, the enemy of the enemy is the friend.

Li Ai said: "Bailongzhai, the origin is ominous. No one knows where they came from, as if they appeared out of nowhere, and there are two owners in it, one surnamed Zhang and the other surnamed Shi, with ominous names. This gang of thieves was only a few dozen people at first, and they took Bailong Valley as their stronghold, and after they gradually grew, they defeated Chang County and Qingyi County on the west side of Dangyang City...... Also, my lord, the way this Bailongzhai governs people's livelihood is very peculiar, which can be said to be unheard of. ”

He Yi suddenly became interested: "Oh? Then tell me, what kind of strange method is it?"

Li Ai frowned and said: "They used Houlu to recruit skilled craftsmen, vigorously encouraged craftsmen to develop strange skills, threatened to 'benefit farmers with work', and opened a private school called 'Academy of Sciences', which did not teach people to read the Four Books and Five Classics, but made craftsmen as gentlemen, and taught children craftsmen skills......"

The red sleeves on the side listened curiously, and couldn't help but interject: "Isn't this just imitating the Mohist school?

Li Ai shook his head: "No, the style of Bailongzhai is definitely not the Mohist school, they ...... Forgive me for not being able to put it into words, but if I have the opportunity, the lord and the girl with red sleeves will go to those two counties for themselves, and they will know how peculiar that place is. ”

“......”

............

While a few people were talking, they wanted to find an inn to settle down temporarily, but they didn't go far before the road ahead was blocked by a group of soldiers from Dangyang City.

"Idle people, etc., get out of the way of me! Whoever dares to block the road will be regarded as a prisoner and will be killed!"

In the middle of the street, a silver-armored general immediately dispersed the surrounding people.

Behind the general, dozens of sergeants slowly walked around a prisoner cart, and judging by this posture, they should have been escorted to the execution ground.

On the cart was a male prisoner of about forty years old, dressed in a dirty white prison suit, with his hair scattered haphazardly, sitting cross-legged in the cell, but his waist was straight.

When passing by, He Yi noticed that even in the face of execution, the prisoner's gaze was still very calm, his appearance was calm and calm, and he looked down-on to life and death.

He is a man of perseverance.

At the same time, the voices of the surrounding people also came to He Yi's ears, and when he talked about this prisoner, he basically said things like "good official" and "it's a pity to die".

This did not surprise He Yi very much, so he instructed Li Ai to inquire around about the prisoner's true share.

After a while, Li Ai went and returned, and said in a low voice: "Lord, this person is a general in Dangyang City, named Lu Cheng, who has been an official for many years, has an excellent reputation, and treats the army and civilians very well, and the reason why he was arrested is said to be because he provoked the people of the Xu family. ”

He Yi frowned and asked, "The Xu family?"

Jiang Sheng next to him took over and whispered, "That's right. Lord, this Xu family is a Xiuzhen family in Dangyang City, and the relationship with the former Zhao family is not bad, and there are often business contacts, and I also know a few of them. ”

He Yi nodded, then glanced at the man in the cage again, and said in a deep voice: "It's a pity that a good official ......"

In these years, most of the officials, in order to protect themselves, turned a blind eye to the evil deeds of the monks.

There are really not many people who have the courage to directly contradict the monks......

Thinking like this, go here.

He Yi didn't pay attention, and suddenly collided heavily with a young boy in front of him, and both of them were stumbling.

"Sorry, are you alright......"

He Yi was about to say something sorry, but found that the young man in front of him ignored him.

His eyes were sharp, his gaze was focused, and he was firmly locked on the prisoner cart driving behind, and then he pulled out the sharp knife on his waist, and walked towards it quickly.
