Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

In the morning on the road, a horse-drawn carriage bumped by, and the dense woods of the past are now only bare branches. The snow on the roadside is crushed by wheels and turned into sewage, exposing muddy land. The people on the carriage are packed with cotton-padded clothes. With sleeves, resting by the side of the car, he is thirty people, his face is white, his body is thin, his hands are not able to bind a chicken, and the little servant sitting beside him handed him the water bag. The hot water inside has cooled off early, and there is still a little left. temperature.

Robben took a sip of water and asked the young man: "The journey is difficult. Have you ever seen someone nearby?"

Xiao Si shook his head: "Most of the villages along the way are deserted."

When the people fled, Robben sighed.

He has ambitions to be king, but now Fang Guozhen drops the yuan, Liu Futong shrinks, and the Red Turbans are rebelling, but most of them are not weathered. Although they hold the Song Dynasty flag, they are independent, like a dish of scattered sand.

After he got the Gaoyou Recruitment Letter, he thought about it again and again. After all, he couldn't match his inner desire, and finally chose to go to Gaoyou.

Robben has the ambition of Kunpeng, but he has nowhere to show his strengths.

The young man asked: "Why is the son sad?"

Robben: "Lin Yuan, I can't figure it out."

This person occupies Gaoyou, Taizhou. The two places are clearly important, but the court has not sent troops to crusade. This person comforts the people and wins people’s hearts, and at the same time makes false claims with the court. Is this kind of person plotting that acre? Three points?

But he didn't see him as a king, and the people only praised him for his generosity and kindness.

If this person is ambitious, he will be able to show off his talents. I hope that this person is not just a nameless, short-sighted person.

The groom screamed, tightened the reins, and the horse stopped. The carriage stopped outside the outer city wall that was being built. He was waiting to find the guard, when he saw a man in an orange vest approaching, and the man was standing by the carriage. Asked: "What are you here for? Are you here to go or seek relatives? What did you bring? Any proof?"

Xiao Si got out of the carriage, stepped on the ground and bowed to the person before saying: "I came here, this is an offer."

After speaking, he handed over the appointment letter written by Lin Yuan.

The little official in the orange vest said quickly: "Please come with me. I have already set up a house for Lord Luo. Nan Bodhisattva has already ordered that Lord Luo is his beloved person and must be treated carefully."

The ancients have always been numb, and Lin Yuan has become more and more numb recently.

Think about it, if you call your confidant Aiqing Qingqing, the monarchs and ministers are still very happy, and it's okay to say a love.

Robben in the carriage also heard it. He couldn't help being stunned. After all, he also knew that he had nothing to do. He went to school at the age of seven and followed his father in business after the death of his fourteen-year-old mother. However, he had no interest in business, so he went to Cixi to study with Zhao Baofeng. What is his local reputation? Where can he reach Gaoyou?

South Bodhisattva still loves him?

Robben was in a trance, and a wave of lofty ambition was uncontrollable.

On the way into the city, Robben lifted the window coverings of the carriage and looked at the street. Unlike the dilapidated and desolate he has seen along the way, the people of Gaoyou live and work in peace and contentment, the small vendors sell on the street, and there are even many women walking around in the street. Yamen with knives walked on the street, but no one evaded them, nor did they yell and scold the vendors to ask for money.

Robben asked the leader loudly: "Why are these women..."

The leader in the front replied: "Master Luo knows something. These are the rules set by the South Bodhisattva. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. How can we distinguish between men and women?"

"If the burden is only entrusted to men and women only have children, where are so many men now?"

The guide smiled and said: "Most men go to the army. If women don't farm or go out to make money, the people of Gaoyou can't survive in the house."

Robben was taken aback: "Women are weak, how can they be called like this..."

Leader: "The adults don't know, they are enjoying themselves. In the past, women had no private property. Nan Bodhisattva pityed them and feared that they would be harassed by others. Now they can make money by making clothes and cooking. Which one is not willing? Relying on this to make money, don’t you still do the same job at home?"

Robben was astonished: "Their parents and brothers didn't stop them?"

Asking all the women in the family to go out to work, this face is lost.

Leader: "What are they blocking? The family goes out to work, the mother goes to the laundry, the father finds a job, whether it’s land reclamation, or a handyman, you can find work, brothers, too, daughter Can you go to dressmaking or be a cook and earn more than before? Nothing else is vain, the money you get is real."

"Now telling them to go back, I am afraid that none of them are willing."

The widows in the past had no husbands, so they had to be instructed by others. If they were to remarry, they would even dare not go out.

But if you don’t remarry, there’s no way to survive. Now widows can choose to do their jobs and earn enough money to spend on their own. They are not afraid of being taken over by their natal brothers. If they do well and earn more, those who want to marry can be discharged. A long line.

What's more, people are social animals and have a herd mentality. Sixty out of a hundred people will do the same thing, and the remaining forty will eventually do it, and will not even think about whether it is right to do it, so Lin Yuan promotes women. At work, the women in the refugees are forced to go to work. When these women work for a long time, naturally some of the less well-off families will come out to find work.

It slowly became the climate.

When most women start to work, a small number of women will come out because of the herd mentality.

Robben closed his eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Robben asked again: "Why do these government officials always inspect?"

Guide: "We call it patrols, we specialize in troubles, fights, petty thefts, and if foreigners come, we can also ask them for directions. If there are vendors who deceive customers, they are in charge of them. If you have problems, you can also call them. ."

Robben still saw such an escort for the first time.

"Why is there a strange line on this road?" Robben saw the red line next to the carriage.

Guide: "The red line is on both sides of the sidewalk, and inside is the car lane."

Robben nodded: "It's a convenient rule."

Robben’s carriage parked in front of a house. The house entered and exited two times. It was not too big, but it was not too small. At first glance, it was clear that it had been cleaned, and all the furniture in the house was available. It was clean and tidy, and it could indeed show Lin Yuan's importance to him.

The guide said: "You take a break, I will be waiting outside."

Finally able to rest, Robben asked Xiao Si to burn a pot of hot water and finally drank hot tea.

He also changed his clothes and cleaned up his appearance again, finally feeling a little refreshed.

After noon, the leader outside shouted: "My lord, here comes your carriage."

Robben almost couldn't wait to walk out of the gate and get into the carriage.

Lin Yuan was also waiting for Luo Ben in the study at this time, that is, Luo Guanzhong's arrival. Luo Guanzhong arrived earlier than Song Lian. It is conceivable that he set off earlier, which also shows that Luo Guanzhong's current mood will be more excited than Song Lian.

After all, Luo Guanzhong has no reputation compared to Song Lian.

When he saw Luo Guanzhong, Lin Yuan's eyes brightened. He almost took three steps and two steps. He spoke with a gentle temperature and looked at Luo Guanzhong with lingering eyes: "Mr. is finally here. I have been waiting for many days."

Luo Guanzhong didn't expect Lin Yuan to look like this. It was clearly a young morning, with a smile on his mouth and a gentle temperament. He didn't know he thought he was a rich man.

"After receiving the book of the son, I missed the son day and night." Luo Guanzhong also said nasty words sincerely.

The two clasped four hands and walked together.

Lin Yuan: "Sir, please sit down."

Luo Guanzhong sat down on the chair. Lin Yuan's study room was very large. It was not so much a study room as a place for discussion.

After Luo Guanzhong took a seat, he realized that he was not alone in the room.

Lin Yuan introduced: "This is the business supervisor, supervisor Song."

Luo Guanzhong and Song Shizhao saw the ceremony.

Lin Yuan also introduced: "This is my righteous brother, the commander of the third battalion battalion also serves as the grain messenger, commander Yang."

Luo Guanzhong met with Yang Zi'an again.

After the introduction of the people, Song Shizhao and Yang Zian stepped back with a wink. Although they didn't know what Luo Guanzhong was capable of, they might not be able to give a good impression on someone like Lin Yuan.

After the two of them left, Lin Yuan smiled at Luo Guanzhong and said, "Mr., did you encounter any trouble along the way?"

Luo Guanzhong: "On the road, farmers have no land, village women have no support, young children have no food, and the old, weak, sick and disabled have nowhere to stay. Compared with them, what kind of trouble can I encounter? The suffering of the people makes me feel difficult to sleep and eat. ."

Lin Yuan also sighed: "I can't handle it, but now I can only sit back and relax. My husband's pity for the people makes me ashamed."

Luo Guanzhong said hurriedly: "Why do you blame yourself? Now Gaoyou, Taizhou, has a reputation in the south of the Yangtze River. There are no hundreds of people who really love it. The world is big and there are many heroes and heroes, but there has never been anyone like you and put people in their hearts."

Lin Yuan waved his hand, hiding his face and sighed, "Unfortunately, it is difficult for Yuan to sing alone, so few people can use it."

Luo Guanzhong: "I am willing to drive for you."

Lin Yuan quickly stood up and bowed to Luo Guanzhong solemnly: "It is a blessing to be Mr. Nai Yuan, and a blessing to the people!"

Luo Guanzhong was also extremely excited by Lin Yuan.

The two talked together, Luo Guanzhong read poems and books, and he was familiar with history, and his conversation was full of humor.

Lin Yuan kept him for dinner, and talked at night by candles, and fell asleep after reaching his feet.

It is the attitude of a courteous and virtuous corporal who is very in line with the times, looking for the best.

In history, Luo Guanzhong helped Zhang Shicheng repulse Zhu Yuanzhang’s army. Lin Yuan also prepared to make the best use of his personnel and asked him to become a military officer. When the time comes to attack Changshu, he should also look at his ability. Anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang and Yang Zian are with them. Time is bad.

The news sent back by Old Four was very detailed, and even the factions and contradictions among Changshu officials were clearly remembered, and even the Changshu Tongzhi was sent to the pirate ship.

The plan to attack Changshu is on the agenda and is imminent.

——

Jiang Zheng’s recent days have been very good. Since he and the fourth brother were connected, gold and silver jewels have flowed into his mansion like running water. The female family members wore delicate and smooth silk that looked as beautiful as sunset clouds. Compared with this silk, In the past, the cloth was not even comparable to the coarse cloth Geyi of the farmer. Numerous exquisite utensils were placed in the house, but he didn't need to put much effort into it, only for the convenience of the elderly.

In the past, he had to worry about the filial piety of the people below him, but now even without the filial piety of those people, he can live a luxurious life.

The fourth old man also searched him for beauties. He had everything he needed. He was young and vigorous. He had little resistance to females. He lingered on the bed day after day, and sometimes even took the five daughters overnight.

If he is weak due to bed affairs, the fourth Anniversary will give him a pill that does not hurt his body, tell him to regain his glory, and make the beauties cry for mercy on the bed.

He has money and beauties, even the emperor does not necessarily have his life easier.

But his desire for power became more and more inflated, and he started to intervene in the army under the instigation of the fourth child. This was not in his control, but he could get through with money.

He kept offering beauties to Sukhbaru.

In Changshu, his status has also become higher and higher, and the people below look to him for the benefits, naturally appear loyal.

Sukhbaru above took the advantage and opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

This is called Jiang Zhengxinyima, giving birth to thoughts that he shouldn't have.

The fourth old man sat down with Jiang Zheng. The dancers in the hall were dancing in harmony. Their movements were like immortals, their waists were soft and curvy, and their brows were springy. They bowed down and bowed their eyes intently.

"Jiang Tongzhi knows how to enjoy it." Old Fourth sighed, "Unlike An, although he earns money, he always runs around. It's not as enjoyable as the servants at home."

Jiang Zheng is also somewhat contented.

The fourth old man was so busy, but it was hard to find the time to sit down and take a breath.

Where he is like him, he is at ease, he can get money when he sits, and what he wants.

Jiang Zheng also laughed: "Brother An is a rare talent, but when it comes to this, he is inferior to me."

The four elders hurriedly said: "Hey, I am born to work hard. I was destined to run. If I can serve the same purpose..."

Jiang Zheng's eyes widened and his face stern: "Brother An! Silence! Do you know what you said?"

An old four knelt down quickly, but looked up and said firmly: "My lord! If I don't know an adult, I can't get up like this!"

The elderly walked a few steps on four knees: "I see adults, it is God's guidance! Adults are not only popular in Changshu, but also hold great power! Your lord!"

Jiang Zheng calmed down quickly after the initial consternation. He sat in a chair, making it difficult for people to see his expression. After a while, he said, "Brother An, be careful, don't say this again! Let the third person know!"

Elderly Four: "My lord, you treat people with your sincere heart. Did Master Zhizhou treat you with your heart?"

Elder Si tried his best to persuade: "My lord! It's not worth it!"

Jiang Zheng finally couldn't help but hide his face and said: "Brother An, only you know my suffering, but if you say, can I still have a chance to save my wealth? There is no turning back when I open the bow!"

The fourth Anniversary knew that the opportunity was coming, and said sincerely: "Fang Guozhen turned against the court, and the court gave him a gift from the court, and the adults are talents. Where is the only one to rule the center? My lord, the world is full of smoke, and the court cares about this and loses. Luck is your luck, my lord! You are the one chosen by God, why bother to belittle yourself and look forward and backward?"

Jiang Zheng waved his hand: "If I want to think about it, I have to think about it..."

The fourth old man did not press on every step, only saying: "If the adult is interested, I would like to do something for the adult, if the adult has anything to do, I will die! It is a sea of ​​swords and flames, and Ann will go!"

This remark made Jiang Zheng had to be moved. He quickly walked down the steps and took the hand of Old Fourth: "Brother An, you treat me with your heart, I understand that if one day, I will share the wealth with you!"

The fourth Anniversary suffocated his tears and cried bitterly: "My heart is for adults, the sun and the moon can be learned! If there are false words, let me thunder and strike!"

The two looked at each other, feeling that they saw what they wanted in each other's eyes.

The fourth Anniversary came to the house every day from now on, and he made suggestions to help Jiang Zheng win over the young officials. The young officials seemed inconspicuous, but they were the people’s food and clothing parents. The officials above only took care of the big things, but the little officials had a relationship. People's livelihood, they are linked together, and it is also a force that cannot be underestimated.

What's more, the life of the small officials is not easy now. They can't get the oil and water from the people below, and the big people above don't care about them. As long as Jiang Zheng gives some benefits, they will naturally bow their heads. Just how to lead them to the thief boat, when they found out, they had become grasshoppers on the same rope and could only follow Jiang Zheng.

Jiang Zheng also discovered the benefits.

In the past, almost no one took seriously what he said, but now it is different. What he wants to do is only to pass a password, and most people want to help him.

This fueled his desire for power.

Slowly, he didn't even look at Sukhbaru.

But a rash man, he felt that he was stronger and more popular than Sukhbaru.

The more power he desires, the more he desires.

He wanted everyone to respect him at first.

Then I hope everyone listens to him.

Now he hopes that more people will listen to him.

After the beginning of spring, the fourth Anniversary felt that the time had come, so he bluntly said: "My lord, the time has come."

Jiang Zheng: "Brother An, tell me carefully."

Fang Guozhen, a counter-thief can press on his head, how could he be willing to be a confidant for the rest of his life, with a Sukhbaru who he looks down on his head?

He wants to win Changshu, he wants to be king!

He wants the people to kneel at his feet, and he wants to complete the supreme pursuit of a man!

The fourth Anniversary passed on to Lin Yuan the day when Jiang Zheng was about to start.

Lin Yuan was shocked when he saw the letter from the fourth child. He thought that the fourth child could only cause chaos in Changshu, but he did not expect that the fourth child would directly instigate the imperial order...

What kind of motivation is this.

Even Song Shizhao said in a daze, "This person... has a lot of scheming and is very useful."

Luo Guanzhong said: "When the time comes, we will go forward, Changshu internal friction, we take the opportunity to win, the least cost."

Lin Yuan took out a map of Changshu and pointed them to three places: "This is the grain depot, this is the Hyogo, this is the barracks, these three places are the most guarded."

Luo Guanzhong smiled and said, "The sound hits the west."

Lin Yuan nodded: "Yes."

Luo Guanzhong also started to say: "Send people to the grain depot, but the target is in Hyogo. It is the three-way leader. Changshu has no more than 10,000 troops. When the people flee, it is our opportunity."

Lin Yuan smiled at Luo Guanzhong: "I will leave it to Mr."

Luo Guanzhong was surprised.

Lin Yuan: "I forgot to say that for this attack on Changshu, Mr. will serve as a military division."

Luo Guanzhong never thought that he would be re-used just over a month after he came here. After returning to his senses, he quickly said, "I can't take Changshu, so I will meet you!"

He adapts quickly to his status. When he didn't have an official position, he called himself a scumbag, and when he had an official position, he became an official.

He was ambitious, and finally he could use it.

——

In April of the twelfth year, in spring, the earth recovered and the dead trees sprouted.

Jiang is standing in the courtyard, letting the puja put on armor for himself. He is a civil servant, but he wants to have an addiction to wearing armor. Today is a big day. It is finished. He has a bright future. If he loses, he loses everything. But Jiang Zheng felt that he would never lose.

He believes that he has the heart of the people, and the small officials below are attached to him, and even the generals in the army are also favored by him.

He benefits them and they consider themselves loyal to him.

Jiang Zhengchao said to the people around him: "Are you all ready?"

The man was dressed in shorts, with strong muscles: "If you return to Tongzhi, you will be ready."

Jiang Zheng smiled and said, "Where is Master Zhizhou?"

That person: "Still hunting outside the city."

Jiang Zheng snorted: "Rough people."

"Call someone to close the city gate, and when Sukhbaru returns, he will kill him outside the city! Don't let one go!"

Sukhbaru brought out all the people around him. None of these people were Han people. They were Sukhbaru's confidantes. Jiang was planning to seal off the entire city after he took Changshu to prevent anyone from leaking the news.

Delayed to the imperial court to send troops to attack other anti-thief, and then become king.

He has even sealed the prime minister.

This is still the fourth old man who taught him to use false positions to win over some people. When the time comes, whether he wants to be blocked or not, isn't it up to him?

Sukhbaru is taking people back to the city at this time and hunting in spring. This is his habit, year after year, the prey that comes will be shared with his subordinates. At that time, the soldiers and guards at the gate of the city will greet him and praise him. Is a Mongolian warrior.

But today, when he came back from the hunting land, he saw that the city gate was closed tightly. He was riding a horse, and the horse was pacing irritably in place. Sukhbaru had a fierce look and shouted: "Man! Give me. Open the gate!"

The words fell silent, and the soldier who opened the door didn't see it, but many soldiers armed with weapons emerged from the small door of the city wall, and there were also archers on the city wall with arrows.

Sukhbaru's eyes widened: "You want to rebel?!"

On the city wall, wearing a armor made of gold, Jiang Zheng looked at Sukhbaru and his group of more than two hundred people condescendingly, shouting: "The Yuan Dynasty is over. If you follow me, kneel and beg for mercy, you will not die. If you don't Since then, the officer can only send you on the road!"

"I, Sukhbaru will never bend my knees to you waiting for the villain!" Sukhbaru gritted his teeth and raised the epee in his hand, "I'll take your life!"

Jiang Zheng's expression changed, and he shouted, "Let go!"

The archers let out their arrows together.

Sukhbaru flicked his epee, and the losing arrow fell to the ground.

He was surrounded by brave and combative Mongols, and few of them were hit in the rain of arrows.

But the horses could not dodge, some people rolled off their horses, and the huge momentum caused them to break their legs and fractures instantly.

After the arrow was released, the soldiers on both sides rushed forward with their weapons.

The two sides fought together. Sukhbaru was only wearing a hunting cloth and no armor. He was also wounded and his eyes were red with blood.

"Jiang Zheng! You shameless villain!" Sukhbaru pointed at the city wall with a sword. "In the future, I will make you dead without a place to bury you!"

After speaking, he shouted to his cronies: "Withdraw!"

Jiang Zheng shouted: "Catch up with them! Get one or two gold for each head!"

"Whoever cuts off Sukhbaru's head, I will make whoever general!"
