Three Kingdoms King of the North

From Yu Qianling's tone of voice, Tai Shici heard that the other party did not dislike Han Zhan, so he said with a smile: "My lord said that the Danyang soldiers are the heroes of the world, so he ordered someone to travel all the way here to recruit soldiers. Wait for Jizhou After Mu has unified the four northern states, he will send troops to Yangzhou sooner or later, and then he can use the soldiers here to deal with Yuan Shu."

Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Yu Qianling remained silent, expressing neither approval nor disapproval.Seeing this, Tai Shici didn't try to persuade him any more, but changed the subject on his own initiative: "My lord, I don't know how you plan to judge the case just now?"

A surprised expression appeared on Yu Qianling's face: "Didn't I already announce that the mother and son of the Tang family should return the property to the Lin family? Brother Zi Yi was in the crowd just now, so he must have heard it clearly."

"The sentence is too light." Tai Shici shook his head and said, "The Lin family has been kind to the mother and son of the Tang family. If it hadn't been for the help of the master of the Lin family, the mother and son of the Tang family would have starved to death on the street. But now, they are ungrateful. The Lin family was in trouble, not only did they not help, but they made trouble, and for such a person who is not as good as a beast, the Lord's punishment is really too light."

Tai Shici's words aroused Yu Qianling's great interest, and he asked curiously: "Then according to Ziyi's opinion, how should I punish you?"

"In addition to returning the real estate they occupied the Lin family, all their property must be confiscated. Except for a part of the compensation to the Lin family, the rest will be returned to the government." Tai Shi said righteously: "Doing this is also considered to be indebted to those ungrateful. A warning to the thugs.”

"Then what should the mother and son of the Tang family do?" Yu Qianling then asked.

"Leaving the Tang family's mother and son behind is bound to continue to bring disaster to the village. Please think back to the situation in the lobby just now. They don't pay attention to the government at all. If you let them go back, they will definitely continue to visit the Lin family. If you cause trouble, you will even feel resentment towards the envoy, and maybe you will secretly kill you." Taishi Ci turned his fist into a palm, and slashed down hard: "Why don't you take this opportunity to kill the grass and roots, maybe the people in the county will be grateful to the envoy. "

"It's reasonable, brother Ziyi's words are reasonable." Regarding Tai Shici's proposal, Yu Qianling agreed, he nodded vigorously and said: "I will judge this case according to what brother Ziyi said. Except for the Lin family In addition to recovering the ancestral property, the confiscated Tang family's property will be distributed to the Lin family as compensation. As for the Tang family's mother and son, they will be locked in the prison and let them fend for themselves."

After Yu Qianling finished speaking, he got up and walked to the door, and said to the yamen servant outside: "Quickly call the master here."

The master secretary was still above the lobby, when he heard the yamen servant say that the county magistrate wanted to see him, he immediately rushed over, stood outside the door and asked respectfully, "I don't know what orders the envoy has?"

Yu Qianling recounted the decision he had just made to the director, and said to him: "Master, immediately draw up a list, and post the verdict on the Lin and Tang's real estate dispute case, so that everyone in the city The people know."

After the master took orders to leave, Yu Qianling returned to the room and sat down again, looked at Tai Shici and asked, "Brother Ziyi, I don't know where you went to recruit recruits when you came to Yangzhou this time?"

"Reply to Shijun's words," Tai Shici saw that Yu Qianling did not have a clear attitude against recruiting recruits here, so his favor with him rose sharply. After hearing this question, he immediately replied: "After a certain came to Yangzhou, I only I have been to Danyang and Liyang counties. The Danyang order is an old acquaintance of a certain person, and he was recruited there for three days; but Liyang County did not even let a certain soldier enter the city gate."

Yu Qianling picked up the tea bowl in front of him, and after taking a sip of tea, he didn't put the bowl down, but asked casually, "I don't know how many recruits Ziyi brother has recruited in Danyang County?" Five to six hundred people is considered pretty good.

"There are more than [-] people." Tai Shici replied, "If it wasn't for the fear of recruiting too many young adults and affecting the farming of Danyang County in the coming year, maybe we would have recruited more people."

Hearing the number of recruits mentioned by Tai Shici, Yu Qianling's hands couldn't help trembling, and he knocked out all the tea in the tea bowl.He looked at Tai Shici and asked in surprise, "How much? More than 4000 people?"

"That's right." Tai Shici didn't mean to ask again, so he took the initiative to say: "I thought it would be inconvenient for these four thousand recruits to travel around, so I left them all in Danyang County, and left another and train them there. We will take them with us on our return journey, after we have recruited elsewhere."

Yu Qianling put the tea bowl on the table, and asked nervously, "I wonder how many recruits Ziyi brother plans to recruit in my Yuqian County?"

"One or two hundred is not too little, and one or two thousand is not too much!" Taishi Cichao Yu Qianling arched his hands and said, "I hope Shijun can help someone."

"It's easy to talk about," Yu Qianling said with a dry smile: "If too many young men are recruited, will it affect the county's spring plowing in the coming year?"

"My lord, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to ask or not."

Yu Qian ordered Chaotai Shici to make a gesture of invitation: "Brother Ziyi has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

"Judging from the current situation in Yangzhou, Governor Liu will not be able to stop Yuan Shu, and sooner or later this place will become Yuan Shu's territory." Since Tai Shici entered Yangzhou, he found that because Liu Yao and Yuan Shu competed for territory, officials from all over the country were confused. People were panicked, so he planned to take advantage of this opportunity and recruit some talents to go to Jizhou.Last night, I heard the owner of the inn say that Yu Qianling is an upright official. Today, I saw that his trial was clear, so I planned to persuade him to go to Jizhou, so I asked: "I don't know if the envoy intends to submit to Yuan Shu or abandon the official position. and go?"

When Yu Qianling heard what Tai Shici said, he didn't reply immediately, but asked instead: "Brother Ziyi, if you were in the position of the official, what would you do?"

"Naturally go to Jizhou." Tai Shici replied without hesitation: "Now that the holy driver has made his capital in Yecheng, it is better to be an official in Jizhou than here in Yangzhou. Besides, a certain one used to be an aide of Governor Liu, and now he is also submitting to him." Is Jizhou shepherd?"

Tai Shici's words made Yu Qianling's heart skip a beat, and he asked tentatively, "Brother Ziyi, if I go to Jizhou with you, would Jizhou Mu be willing to take you in?"

"If Shijun is willing to go to Jizhou, my lord will definitely accept you." Tai Shici said thoughtfully, "However, it may not be easy to be an official in Jizhou."

Yu Qianling was just happy for a moment, and when he heard that he could not be an official in Jizhou, his face immediately sank. He thought to himself, no matter whether I continue to be loyal to Liu Yao or surrender to Yuan Shu, at least I must do it in the boundary of Yangzhou. Officer is fine.But now you actually told me that you can't be an official in Jizhou, so what's the point of me going to Jizhou.

Seeing that Yu Qianling's face was cloudy and uncertain, Tai Shici knew that the other party had misunderstood what he meant, so he quickly explained: "Yu Qianling misunderstood, it didn't mean that you went to Jizhou and could no longer be an official, but that it might not be true. Serve as an official in Jizhou."

Yu Qianling asked puzzledly: "If you are not an official in Jizhou, where else can you go to be an official?"

"You don't know, my lord has sent troops to Qingzhou, and half of Qingzhou is already under our army's control." Tai Shici said to Qian Ling: "Once Qingzhou is pacified, a large number of officials will be needed. If you are willing to go to Jizhou with me, you will be able to serve in Qingzhou in the future, not to mention a small county magistrate, even if it is a prefect, it is not impossible."

Yu Qianling was completely moved by Tai Shici's words, and he thought to himself: I am just a small county magistrate here, and it is unknown how long I can serve. Arrange yourself to be an official in Qingzhou. If you are lucky, you may really be able to become the prefect.Thinking of this, he nodded vigorously, and said to Tai Shici: "Brother Ziyi, I will entrust you with my future."

Seeing that Yu Qianling was moved by his own words, Tai Shici laughed, and then said: "You are too polite, you and I will be ministers in the same hall in the future, and we need to take care of each other."

Chapter 436

Under Tai Shici's persuasion, Yu Qianling was willing to go to Jizhou, so the next conscription would be much easier.Yu Qian ordered someone to find the county lieutenant, and told the other party: "This general Taishi is going to recruit recruits in this county. You take a few yamen servants to assist him."

When the county lieutenant heard Yu Qianling's order, he looked at Tai Shici with some puzzlement, and wondered if the general Taishi that the county magistrate was talking about was on the side of Governor Liu or Yuan Shu?Since they came to this county to recruit soldiers, why didn't they even have relevant officials?

However, since this matter was ordered by the county magistrate, the county lieutenant knew that what he said was useless, so he didn't ask extra questions, but replied respectfully: "I obey the order, and I will arrange the manpower here. Assist General Taishi in recruiting recruits."

Tai Shici saw that the county lieutenant said he obeyed, but the expression on his face was obviously unwilling. He smiled slightly, stood up and said to the Qianling: "Master, since there is the help of the county lieutenant, then so-and-so will go outside and give instructions to the subordinates." Next, prepare to start recruiting troops."

The team leader waiting outside saw Tai Shici walking out of the county government office, and hurriedly went up to meet him and asked, "Xianfeng, how is the situation, does the county magistrate allow us to recruit troops in the city?"

Tai Shici nodded and said with a smile: "Yu Qianling agreed, we can recruit as many as we want. By the way, the county captain will bring people to cooperate with our recruitment later, remember to get things ready."

The team lead had been with Tai Shici for a long time, so he naturally knew what he was talking about and what he was referring to, so he nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Pioneer, I know what to do."

After the two waited outside the door for a while, they saw the listless county lieutenant walking out of the county office with a dozen other listless officials.Seeing the expressions of the county lieutenant and the yamen servant, Tai Shici knew that the other party was not willing to come to help him, but because of Yu Qianling's order, he brought someone to perfunctory the matter.

After the county lieutenant approached, Tai Shici took a small package handed over by the team leader. He weighed the weight and felt that there were quite a lot of things inside, so he walked a few steps towards the county lieutenant and put his hand On his shoulder, he said to him: "County captain, take a step to speak!"

After the two came to the side, the county lieutenant asked angrily: "This general, do you have any advice?"

"It's a small meaning, it's not a respect." Tai Shici stuffed the small package into the county captain's arms, and said in a low voice: "This is a meeting gift for the county captain."

"Meeting ceremony?!" When the county captain heard Tai Shici say this, he had a straight face. After he opened the package and saw the contents clearly, his attitude towards Tai Shici immediately took a 180-degree turn: " General Taishi, since the envoy ordered me to help you. If you have anything to do, just ask, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you."

"We are new here, and we are not familiar with the place of life." Tai Shici said cautiously: "Putting up the bidding flag here, I am worried that not many people will come to join the army!"

"General Taishi, please rest assured about this." The county lieutenant who had just accepted Taishi's kindness immediately patted his chest and said: "As long as there are brothers here, I dare not say that there are too many, and there is no problem in recruiting four or five hundred people." .”

"That's very good." When Tai Shici spoke, he glanced at the position where the team leader was, and seeing the latter nodded to him, indicating that the matter had been settled, he continued, "County captain, let's arrange the arrangement now." A place to recruit recruits."

The county lieutenant received a great gift from Tai Shici, and the yamen servants who came to help also got the benefits from the team leader, all of them were beaming with joy.Seeing the county lieutenant coming back with Tai Shici, he immediately took the initiative to invite Ying: "Lord county lieutenant, it's getting late, let's help General Tai Shici recruit troops as soon as possible."

When the county lieutenant saw that the yamen servant under him suddenly became so active, he couldn't understand in his heart that the other party had accepted Tai Shici's favor.However, he pretended not to know, but pretended to say: "Since this is the case, I will quickly help the military lords to arrange the recruiting site, and by the way, go to the street to shout a few more people to let everyone know that the recruiting is here. "

All the yamen servants quickly agreed, and they divided their troops into two groups, one to help Tai Shici and the others arrange the conscription place; and the other, to beat gongs along the street to announce the conscription to the people in the city.

Those yamen servants guarding the gate of the county yamen were still watching jokes when they saw the county lieutenant leading a group of yamen servants to help Tai Shici and the others.Unexpectedly, after a while, I saw a military master who looked like a team leader, and gave each of the yamen servants a money bag.When they saw all their colleagues smiling, the servants guarding the gate of the county government felt jealous. They thought to themselves, why didn't the county lieutenant ask him to help?In that way, wouldn't he be able to make a small fortune?

Under Tai Shici's persuasion, Yu Qianling was willing to go to Jizhou, so the next conscription would be much easier.Yu Qian ordered someone to find the county lieutenant, and told the other party: "This general Taishi is going to recruit recruits in this county. You take a few yamen servants to assist him."
