Huan Rong

The eight thousand cavalry stationed outside Xihe City was supposed to be a security guarantee, but after Qin Jing shot and killed Yu Ji and wiped out two tyrants in a row, they became a butcher knife hanging over the heads of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Fall anytime.

At the night banquet in the palace, Qin Ce expressed his attitude. The veterans of the Qin family are still good, but the newcomers, especially the ones who sent the beauty, are cautious in their words and actions, and dare not exceed the rules, for fear of being caught by Qin Jing. Come to the door, cut melons and vegetables for a meal, and set a big fire by the way.

Later on, it was almost a little nervous, and it became jittery at the slightest sign of disturbance.

Seeing this change, Qin Ce didn't say much, and only called a few important officials into the palace to comfort him. He also held up the matter of Qin Jing's destruction of the Yu family and the Yang family, and put it down lightly, instead of paying any attention to it. Punishment, instead entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

The ministers saw it clearly, and even those who were at odds with Yu Ji took the opportunity to report and expose Yu Ji's illegal activities in the past, and asked Qin Ce to chase after Yu's escaped fish, find out the guilt, behead his head and abandon the market as an example to others.

This move is exactly what you want.

Qin Ce pushed the boat along the river, sent people to conduct a strict investigation, and arrested more than 120 relatives and friends of the Yu family. They were all executed for serious crimes, and those who committed minor crimes were sent to Changli and other frontier fortresses as soldiers.It was found that Yushi and his party members hid more than [-] boxes of gold and thousands of stones of grain, all of which were used in the national treasury.

After hearing the news, the girl Yu who was sent to the Prince Qin's mansion sent all the servants away and committed suicide in the room.

The Zhao family and the Zhou family who took care of the back house got a report and sent someone to send a letter to Mrs. Liu in Chang'an. Then they ordered someone to prepare a thin coffin and sent him out of the house for a hasty burial without even erecting a tombstone.

Compared with the clansmen who beheaded and abandoned the market, and didn't even have anyone to collect the corpse, Miss Yu's was considered lucky.

Although they somewhat admired her determination, Zhao and Zhou couldn't feel any sympathy for her previous arrogance and publicity.

The road is walked by oneself, and the bubbles under the feet are also stepped on by oneself.

If Mrs. Yu hadn't crossed the bottom line and dared to attack Mrs. Liu, she might not have brought about the disaster of today.The blame is Yu Ji's swollen ambition, he can't see the reality clearly, and Qin Jing is completely angered by the act of shaking the tree.

Thinking of this, both Zhao and Zhou shook their heads.

"Thinking that the Liu family can be replaced because of its decline? What a fool to think so!"

Qin Ce has nine sons in total, all of whom belong to Mrs. Liu and her companions.Several concubine daughters are already married, and the people who marry are carefully selected by Mrs. Liu, and they have an inseparable relationship with the Qin Jing brothers.

Nowadays, the Qin family's territory is getting bigger and bigger. Qin Ce intends to go further, move the capital to Chang'an, and then establish a system to proclaim the emperor. The old and new forces in the court have their own plans and are secretly planning. There will definitely be more and more people like Yu Ji.

"My husband is getting old." Mrs. Zhou put down the knife and pen, ordered her servants to add two more three-legged lamps, and sighed, "In the early years..."

"You also know it's the early years." Mrs. Zhao interrupted Mrs. Zhou with a smile, waved her hand to signal her servants to retreat, and said in a low voice, "You and I are no better than the newcomers, and we have no children around us. We want to live a good life. You must follow Madam wholeheartedly."

"That's what I said, but Ma'am is now in Chang'an, and we don't have the support of our family, how can we do it?" Zhou's expression was half hidden, with a hint of worry in his expression.

"It is precisely because there is no family to rely on that you should follow your wife."

Mrs. Zhao is two years older than Mrs. Zhou. She entered the mansion first, and knew more about Mrs. Liu and Qin Ce, "You and I are sisters, so I told you this. Think about the Yin family in the early years. Look at Yu Shi today, don't you still understand?"

Mrs. Zhou was even more shaken, Mrs. Zhao approached slightly, leaned forward and said, "You also said just now that the husband is old."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou was shocked and looked at Mrs. Zhao with a look of shock that couldn't be concealed.The latter retracted his gaze and focused his attention on the bamboo slips, as if he was just talking casually and had no other intentions.

old?

Yeah, old.

"I listened to sister."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhao nodded, handed the bamboo slips to Mrs. Zhou, and said, "You can read more than me, and your handwriting is better than mine. You can write the letter."

Knowing that this is the opportunity that Mrs. Zhao gave her, Mrs. Zhou was grateful and nodded vigorously.

"Besides, you have to know who is in charge of the palace's catering and pharmacy." Zhao continued, "The catering is properly arranged, and I don't want to interfere too much in the pharmacy. You have a sister from a branch clan who married into the Qian family. , if you have free time, you might as well ask her to come over and sit down for a while."

The Qian family was not considered powerful, because of his background in Xihe and the fact that he had joined the Qin family early, Fang had a certain status in the court.

He has three brothers, one is an official in the court, the other is in charge of the property, and the remaining one deals with goods in the north and south markets. The business is not small, and they also have contacts with Youzhou.

Some of the precious medicinal materials in Prince Qin's Mansion were presented by Qian Shi.

Previously, Madam Liu's decoction was thoroughly investigated, but the medicinal materials sent by Mrs. Qian were not wrong.Later, with the help of Qian's methods and contacts, the doctors under Yu's protection were found out.

Now, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu are far away in Chang'an, and there are some things that cannot be done by themselves, so Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhou happen to act on their behalf.

Inviting Qian's family members to come to the house is the first step.

The conversation between the Zhao family and the Zhou family only mentioned the Yu family, and did not mention the Yang family who was also exterminated.

In fact, compared with the former, the experience of the latter is not much better.But with Yu Ji as the target, Yang's actions can even be called low-key. Regardless of the former court or the back house, Yu's so-called "lessons" will be the first to bear the brunt, and Yang's will be directly ignored.

No matter how everyone talked about it, whether the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty would turn blue in the face, Qin Jing's behavior style has never changed a little bit, and his actions are decisive and fierce, which is really frightening.

After each court meeting, Qin Jing would go out of the city to the camp, order hundreds of cavalry to patrol the suburbs, and within two days, a group of "rogue bandits" were caught and a large amount of hidden gold and food was found.

The gangster was tied behind a horse and dragged all the way into the city. He had already lost his human appearance.

Those who were still breathing saw that the guards at the city gate seemed to have something to say, but they didn't expect the people to rush over after hearing the news, and the surging crowd immediately pushed the guarding soldiers aside.

"Damn the thieves!"

Among the crowd, someone shouted and threw several stones.

The people who often live in the north hate Hu Kou first, and secondly hate bandits.The former is from a foreign race, while the latter has both Hu people and Han people. Talking about all kinds of evil deeds, all of them make people gnash their teeth!

In the fury of the crowd, stones and sticks came raining down, with tattered straw sandals sandwiched between them, causing the gangsters to scream and scream until they couldn't even make a sound and were crushed to death.

"Young Master, getting rid of this harm today is truly a joy to the hearts of the people!"

"With the four young masters here, who dares to offend Xihe?!"

Qin Jing galloped past, and the crowd naturally gave way, raising their eyes to look up at the black figure, with expressions of gratitude and admiration, and even a bit of admiration and fanaticism.

Outside the crowd, there was an ox cart parked by the side of the street. There was no sign on the body, so it was impossible to tell whether it was an official from the DPRK or China.

Several men in short robes guarded the bullock cart, all with dark faces.Looking at the "bandit" who could no longer recognize his human appearance, he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and his forehead was bulging with veins.

There was a muffled voice in the bullock cart, the man took orders and was about to retreat silently.Suddenly, Qin Jing pulled the rein, turned his head, and looked directly at him.

The man was startled, subconsciously moved his steps, and stood in front of the bullock cart.

Qin Jing raised her eyebrows, looked away, and continued walking.Ranhu, who was following behind him, grinned, gestured his fingers to the man, and swiped across his neck vigorously.

Qin Jing led his troops back to the palace, the noise gradually disappeared, and the people gradually dispersed.A few puddles of meat mud were left on the ground, which were quickly cleaned up by soldiers patrolling the city and thrown out of the city.

The bullock cart left the long street, and the man who drove it still had an ugly expression on his face.

Where is Xihe City?

After eating the bear's heart and the leopard's guts, he dared to do the robbery for the bandit here.The real identities of these so-called bandits have nothing to do with bandits. They are all loyal servants guarding the treasures and granaries for the powerful!

At the end of the Han Dynasty, wars were raging everywhere, and there was rarely a peaceful day in the northern land.

To be able to survive in the flames of war and maintain the family to this day, there must be considerable means of life-saving.

The Qin family first destroyed Murong Xianbei, and then captured Chang'an in another battle, which has the potential to unify the Central Plains.The tycoons who stayed in the north came to vote one after another, and they were more optimistic about the future development of the Qin family.

However, the Qin family did not reach the top after all, and it is impossible for each family not to leave a way out for themselves.The real money donated is only a small part, and the big part is hidden.

Qin Jing went out of the city for several days in a row, and found no less than five gold deposits.

It may not be so easy to be someone else, but with Ranhu and other horsemen around, they can still be dug out if they are buried deep in the ground.

It's just that Qin Jing didn't take things to the extreme, and only took a hidden treasure, and named it "Bandit", and didn't involve the powerful people behind it.

But when the cover is lifted, Qin Ce's method may not be able to find out the key behind it.

At that time, there must be a good show.

Qin Jing was impatient to deal with these people. He had already seen that Qin Ce's behavior was different from the past. If he continued like this, he would not be able to completely subdue the people who voted in the future, and even cause internal chaos, which then got out of hand.

Convincing people with virtue doesn't work, so just use another method.

Shock, kill!

The so-called reputation is not worth a penny, and he has made up his mind since he left Chang'an.

"General, King Qin has a call."

As soon as Qin Jing returned to the mansion, Qin Ce had to summon her.Apparently, the events in the city had reached his ears.

"Understood." Taking off the helmet and unbuttoning the arm armor, Qin Jing threw out the whip casually, and was caught by Buqu.

"I'll go later."

"promise!"

After the healthy servant retreated, Qin Jing took off his armor neatly, and after a simple bath, he changed into a black dark suit.

When I walked down the corridor, I heard a loud eagle cry, and saw the goshawk hovering in mid-air, and the evil spirit around me suddenly eased a little.

After whistling, Qin Jing raised his left arm to catch the flying goshawk.He caressed the eagle's feathers casually, untied the bamboo tube from the eagle's legs, saw the familiar handwriting, it seemed as if the ice and snow had melted in an instant, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Jiankang

It was September, and the weather was still sultry, with no autumn coolness at all.

Huan Rong entered the Taiji Hall, and Princess Nankang and Mrs. Li also moved into Taicheng.

Empress Dowager Wang and Empress Dowager Chu were supposed to move into Qingxili. The former lived in Sima Yu's old house, which is now Sima Yao's mansion.The latter set up another residence and enjoyed the support of the first emperor and empresses.

The current Sima Yaokong has a prince, and in terms of living standards, he may not be as good as Sima Daozi, who was reduced to a marquis.It is even more incomparable with Sima Daofu who took shelter of the Huan family.

Thinking of the two empress dowagers' far-sightedness and making an agreement with Princess Nankang, the tribe has just had a future. The two patriarchs wrote letters to each other.

There is no precedent for this matter, and there is inevitably a lot of discussion between the DPRK and China.

In the end, Huan Rong tried his best to overcome all opinions and agreed with the two families.

The imperial decree is more like a reassurance, allowing the two families to fully understand that the new emperor will do what he says, and all kinds of promises are by no means empty words.As long as you have real talents and real learning, your children will surely have a bright future.

Although it is very possible to leave Jiankang and go to the border and even the Western Regions, it is better to have a chance than nothing.Look at the Sima family who was raised, do they all want to be such a waste?

For the future of the family, the Patriarchs of the Wang family and the Chu family made up their minds and strictly ordered the children of the family not to talk all day long, let alone hold Lao Zhuang to seek immortality with nothing to do.

In short, let Lao Tzu recognize the reality and return to the mundane world!

Unwilling to contribute to the family?

All have nothing to eat!

What kind of talk do you have when you have nothing to eat, please be a god of claws!

It’s not that your head has been kicked by a donkey. After three days of starvation, you can recognize the reality, establish a correct outlook on life and values, and understand that as a nobleman, you can enjoy the various benefits provided by the family. When necessary, you must abandon your ego. Abandon the illusory road of seeking immortality, and work hard for the family down-to-earth.

Huan Rong really didn't expect that Wang and Chu would be so cruel.After pondering for a while, he called Jia Bing into the Tai Chi Hall, and the monarch and his ministers had a long talk.

Huan Rong expressed his attitude, and Jia Bing, who had been promoted from a servant to a servant, nodded on the spot to express his understanding.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the minister will finish this matter."

After leaving the palace, Jia Bing did not go back to the mansion, but turned around to pay a visit to Dazhong Zhengzheng.

Soon, both the Wang family and the Chu family had their husbands judged and released from office. After the emperor's face-to-face examination, they were released to Liangzhou as officials.

When the news came out, the two parents rejoiced and raised their glasses to congratulate each other, regardless of the bitterness on their faces and tears in their eyes.After the celebration, without any delay, they packed up the people neatly and sent them to the carriage.

"Going thousands of miles, son, don't forget what you said to be a father!"

In a word, it's a bit serious, the official family doesn't like to talk about it, and they don't like Hanshi San at all. Our family is no better than Langya Wang's and Chenjun's Xie's. We should weigh everything ourselves and don't let our father down.

The first wave of young talents bid farewell with tears and embarked on the road to the west.

This trip will bid farewell to the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and walk all over the desert and yellow sand; leave the gentleness of the water town, embrace the pride of the frontier, and the strong sand and wind.

At this moment, no one can predict what kind of road these noble gentlemen will take in the Western Regions.No one could have imagined that, after being tempered by the wind and sand, the gentleman who is like an exiled immortal will lead the son of the Han family to gallop thousands of miles across the battlefield, and use the ancient roads of the Western Regions to travel all over Central Asia and West Asia.

Wherever the bowstring reaches, it is the territory of the Han family.

These words were recorded in the history books, and the words were Huan Rong's words, which were denounced by later generations as aggressive and benevolent.Huan Rong cried out loudly, he can swear to God, he never said this!

Just like "Those who offend the strong Han will be punished even if they are far away" are not the fault of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He admitted that he was the one who ordered the dispatch of troops to open up the territory, but this sentence is indeed not what he said.

As for who it is... go find Wang Xianzhi!

It is estimated that no one would have thought that Wang Zijing of Qingfenglangyue would say such a sentence.

Changing to Xie Xuan is more credible than him.

The history of the turning point is just like this, too many unexpected, too many unbelievable, even a certain butterfly passed through by later generations will be unconsciously dazed.

At the end of September, the academy of Fan Ning and Secretary Huan gradually took shape.

Due to limited conditions, the academy was temporarily located in Jiangzhou, following the example of Youzhou to set up two academies.

The east courtyard taught the students of the high school, mainly studying classic books on the art of war; the west courtyard mainly taught the children of the common people, in addition to poetry and books on the art of war, it mainly taught medicine, organs and craftsmanship.

During the period, there were voices of opposition in the court, and even the academy in Youzhou was involved.

Huan Rong didn't have time to deal with it, Xie An relieved his worries on his behalf, the method was very simple, recommended Xu Miao from Dongguan to teach in the academy.Afterwards, Gaoping Xi and Langya Wang respectively recommended old friends and showed their attitudes with practical actions.

The so-called four or two strokes, at the level of Xie An and Xi Min, without saying a word, just move a finger, and push back the provocative ones.

While Huan Rong was feeling emotional, he was even more vigilant.

With a change in status, one should not underestimate the noble family.One must pay attention to methods in handling affairs, otherwise, there is no guarantee that the ship will not capsize in the gutter.

Entering October, Huan Rong finally completed all the sacrifices, paid homage to the ancestral hall, and prepared to go out for a hunting tour.As soon as the imperial decree was proclaimed in the court, it happened that the dragon eclipsed the sun.

At the court meeting the next day, all the ministers came forward, saying that this was a warning from heaven, asking the emperor to reconsider the matter of hunting, and get married as soon as possible.

Huan Rong suddenly felt a headache.

He really couldn't figure it out, the hunting tour was justified, how amazingly imaginative was it to link the warning from the heavens with the big wedding?
