Heng Wusuan had never slept so soundly, and when he opened his eyes, it was already past noon, and Shao Mingqian was sitting at the table in the middle of the room. After sleeping for five or six hours, Heng Wuxuan did not feel more energetic, but felt a splitting headache, and his body seemed to be not his own.

"What's the matter, are you better?" Seeing that he woke up, Shao Mingqian smiled and asked.

"Ahem, it's much better. "Heng Wusuan coughed twice, his lungs seemed to be emptied, he used up almost all his strength that day with the 'Immortal Evil Venerable', and even injured the lung meridians, and under the internal deficiency and external cold, he was even more infected with wind and cold, it happened that there were many things in the help these days, complicated, he was afraid that Shao Mingqian would not be able to be busy, so he resisted for a few days, tired and tired, and he finally couldn't bear it last night and fell ill.

Shao Mingqian said: "I didn't say anything about the internal injuries that day, I thought you would be fine after breathing." ”

Heng Wuxuan said: "It's okay, just rest for a few days, Yamen...... Didn't you come looking for trouble today?" he forced himself to cough up.

Shao Mingqian said: "The heavy snow has sealed the mountain, and the people of the yamen can't bear the hardship without any benefits, so they naturally don't want to come." ”

"It's snowing before winter?" Heng Wushu was surprised.

Shao Mingqian said: "Well, it's half a foot thick, so I don't know how many places in 'Zhongzhou' have snowed." ”

Heng Wushu said: "Ahem...... The people have suffered again. ”

Shao Mingqian said: "Yes, such a thick snow, even if there was no snow last night in other places, I am afraid that it will be frozen, this year's rain is too little, and the harvest has failed, and the wheat at the beginning of next summer will be frozen by this freezing rain." ”

Heng Wuxuan said: "If the imperial court is ...... Cough...... Ahem......" He was halfway through his sentence, shook his head and said no more.

Shao Mingqian said: "The tax reduction has little effect, unless it is completely exempt from taxes, otherwise the fire consumption is a layer, and the profiteers are a layer, and the tax that should be paid by selling ten stones of grain is enough to pay, at least seven or eight more stones, and the court tightens its belt to exempt one or two percent of the tax, and I am afraid that the people will not be able to save a grain of rice." When the time comes, the harvest will still be poor, the people will still be hungry, and the court will be tighter, only fattening profiteers and corrupt officials. ”

Heng Wuxuan said: "There is no way, the disadvantages have been accumulated for a long time, and now the yamen is getting more and more ruthless in making money...... cough cough cough cough ......"

Shao Mingqian said: "Forget it, don't talk about this, you rest first, I'll ask someone to get you something to eat, and you can take medicine after eating and resting for a while." ”

Shao Mingqian said to leave the house, the 'Yang Dao League' did a lot of miscellaneous work, the servants were just to serve some people hired by the injured and sick, there were not many, during this time, the 'Yang Dao League' was not a few, and the servants were killed by the 'Fenghuo Gate' when they attacked the mountain, and the rest was even more scarce, Shao Mingqian sent people away before he came, and now the servants are taking care of other injured people, but there is no one here for a while.

Shao Mingqian was born poor, worked neatly, and didn't pay attention to his identity, so he went to the kitchen to get some food for Heng Wusuan and brought it back in person, of course, this cooking skill is really .......

Heng Wuxuan ate it, and went back to bed and lay down, the two had a good relationship, their identities were similar, and they usually didn't care about those vulgar etiquette, since the helper was willing to take care of it personally, he also deserved it. Shao Mingqian boiled the medicine for Heng Wusuan and talked with Heng Wusuan.

These two people spoke, and in less than three sentences, they talked about the affairs of the gang, and they felt guilty about the defeat that day, claiming that they would be responsible to the end, and asked to resign from the position of deputy alliance leader and the leader of the 'Xuanyi Guard' and demote them to the deacon of the 'Xuanyi Guard', but Shao Mingqian said that he was also responsible for the defeat that day, at least the two of them made a mistake in arranging Liu Huanjin in such an important position.

After that, the two discussed why Liu Huanjin rebelled, as well as some shortcomings in the gang and the reactions of the gang, and then to replace Chu Zhongqing and Li Wan, who are suitable candidates for being promoted to the hall master, and so on.

In the end, both of them believed that the 'Yang Dao Alliance's acceptance of Liang Xie was equivalent to an open confrontation with Wu Jingguo, which may have caused disagreements and dissatisfaction among the brothers in the gang, and Liu Huanjin's rebellion was likely caused by this incident, and the disadvantages of the gang were also intensified, such as the position of the hall master is too small, and there is only one position of the hall master under the three hall masters, which is certainly saving expenses, but the chance of helping the people to rise is too low, and it is also a disadvantage, for example. The price of goods is too real, the surplus is relatively small, and the partners are very dissatisfied, especially in the grain category, which has to invest a large amount of cash every year, but the surplus is the least of all the transactions, and for example, doing some important things is not kept secret enough, so that people have taken advantage of the loopholes.

As for the candidates to replace Chu Zhongqing and Li Wan as the head of the hall, it is a pity that they are a lot worse, Li Wan and Chu Zhongqing can have such a level back then in how many years of failure, and they have consulted the 'God of Wealth' for nearly two years, and have practiced for several years. The loopholes brought about by the gatekeeper and the lack of the hall master have ruined the reputation, so they have to consider reducing it.

For example, although Chu Zhongqing has been engaged in some tricks by his subordinates before, he has a wide range of friendships with people, has extraordinary knowledge, and has a lot of ways, and in the identification and evaluation of the authenticity of antiques and jade, no one in the gang has reached his level of thirty percent. Someone is a ghost in jade, which pawnshop is not doing well, which link and which object has a problem is clear, Chu Zhongqing is not in the pawnshop, some precious antiquities can not be taken accurately, and more complicated things such as precious tablets are checked by Chu Zhongqing himself, and more complicated things must be eliminated, an antique may be wrong, a branch hall or even the entire 'Chumen Hall' will be done in vain in a year, of course, the 'Yang Dao League' can also be learned' The Armor Gang's old and fake antiques, pawnshops as a disguise, can't be indemnified, but the reputation accumulated over the years will quickly collapse in a short period of time, and Shao Mingqian himself can't do such a thing.

For another example, in all kinds of embroidery, Li Wan is a well-deserved first person, which embroidery has any problems, how much is it worth, where is it good, whether it can be sold, how much can be sold is clear, and has been cooperating with many wealthy businessmen, and the shipment is not worried.

Now that the two hall masters have died, the key links have been affected, and the many manpower in the hall are not the next of any branch hall master, although the relationship needs to be sent to reorganize the contact, and if the person who replaces the relationship is a little greedy, it is easy to be bought by the four gangs at a high price, resulting in a fatal blow to the 'Yang Dao Alliance', and the branch hall masters have also died a few, and the working gang has died more than a thousand, and the gap cannot be filled in any case. Therefore, Shao Mingqian finally decided not to promote the hall master for the time being, first observe the suitable candidates, and then promote them after the grudge with the four gangs is resolved.

The servant served Heng Wuxuan and drank the medicine, Shao Mingqian sent the servant out, and the two gossiped for a while, and Shao Mingqian got up and planned to leave.

"Alliance leader, there is one thing...... Ahem...... We need to be careful. Heng Wuxuan hesitated.

Heng Wu is a decisive person, it seems that this kind of desire to speak and stop is still relatively rare, Shao Mingqian knew that the matter must not be small, and asked, "What is the matter?"

Heng Wuxuan said: "Liu Huanzhen's matter, someone must pull the line...... Ahem. ”

Shao Mingqian nodded and said, "That's right, can you find a suspicious person?"

Heng Wuxuan shook his head and said, "It's a big matter, I don't dare to guess, but ...... cough cough cough cough ...... There are a few people who should pay more attention to the alliance leader. Heng Wuxuan said and lowered his voice.

Shao Mingqian knew what he meant, there were just two of them in the house, just in case, Shao Mingqian leaned over, and Heng Wushu whispered a few words in his ear. Shao Mingqian was a little surprised and asked, "Really?"

Heng Wuxuan said: "I have been paying attention before, but I have not found anything suspicious, but I ..... Cough...... Asked Liu Huanjin to make a pit for that kid. ”

Shao Mingqian nodded again and said: "No matter what, prevention is better than cure, what really makes me unable to let go is Shuliang, this kid is not young, and he has done murder and arson, but he is indecisive, and he is a little withdrawn and evasive." Lord Ren has embezzled a lot of good people and is quite upright, and he has also impeached Wu Jingguo before, but he didn't expect to have a backbone for most of his life before he remembered to talk to the powerful, Shuliang, the son-in-law, is afraid that it is not easy to have a face in the gang. ”

Heng Wuxuan said: "It doesn't matter if he doesn't go well for a while, you, the senior brother, will always have a way, but his brother-in-law heard that it is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and even old rivers and lakes like Qin Zhao and Lu Guhong are also planted in his hands." ”

Shao Mingqian said: "It's okay, didn't 'Xuanyiwei' already stare at him." ”

Heng Wuxuan smiled and said, "'Xuanyiwei' hasn't seen anything outstanding about him so far, but Shuliang's daughter-in-law is a powerful person. ”

"Keep an eye on it, you can rest, I'll go out and have a look. Shao Mingqian settled down, opened the door and left. Balance the fortune and practice qi, and slowly regulate the pranayama.

In the afternoon, the holy decree of killing the 'Immortal Evil Venerable' spread throughout 'Zhongzhou', and the heavy snow of the previous night seemed to be completely unhindered. 'Osumi Heavenly City' learned of the holy decree, and immediately transferred the 'Four Forces' to lead thirty 'Lei Zong' masters to set off, the 'Immortal Evil Venerable' master and apprentice heard the wind and fled, escaped out of 'Zhongzhou' and fled to the capital, along the way encountered the 'Six Dragons Gang' of the 'Yuelong' and 'Seeing the Dragon' two masters to block, the 'Immortal Evil Venerable' master and apprentice did not dare to stay, did not dare to fight, turned away, and fled back to Fanbang overnight.

The news spread all over the world, and the people were excited, cheering the emperor and the sage.

September 27, Gengyin Day.

The emperor sued the temple of heaven and earth and established the Zhou family as the queen.

After the ceremony, the two talked for a while, and the emperor was absent-minded.

Empress Zhou said: "I heard the little eunuchs say that the snow has fallen in 'Zhongzhou' this year, is the emperor worried about this?"

The emperor said: "The green seedlings of winter wheat have just emerged, and I am afraid that they will not be able to withstand this freezing snow, and I don't know how many people will starve in this snow." ”

Empress Zhou said: "The emperor exempts the 'Zhongzhou' tax for one year, and the people will not starve." ”

The emperor stroked the queen's hair and sighed: "The people want to eat, and the soldiers at the border pass also want to eat." ”

Queen Zhou said: "It would be good if next year was a good year." ”

"Yes, how happy the people would be if the war ended. The Emperor sighed.

'Raise the Sword'.

The snow has not yet disappeared, the weather is getting warmer, and the mountains are muddy.

In the past few days, there is no obstacle to recuperate the lightly injured, and the seriously injured have been relieved, the eagle injury is not all healed, and he is hungry to find wine to drink, and he was preached by Tan Xingde, Liu Shiyi's injury has also improved a lot, Liang Xie takes time to greet every day, and the two chatt for a while, and her mood will be very good. Liang Xie is grateful to her, but also guilty, whether it is out of gratitude, or because of the friendship between the two people in the past two years, or because Liu Shiyi has no relatives on the mountain, Liang Xie must take more care.

However, Liang Xie had Liang Xie's thoughts, but Ren Jiaxian was extremely dissatisfied, Ren Xiao took the opportunity to fan the flames, and asked his sister to take her brother-in-law back to her father in 'Dongyao City', which was unbelievable if his brother-in-law was a lobbyist Liang Xie couldn't ask for it in the past, but now Liang Xie felt extremely awkward, especially when the 'Yang Dao League' suffered such a big loss, it was not good to leave his senior brother and leave his friends on his own, even if he stayed with his martial arts could not solve the problem.
