The guerrillas withdrew from Tongchui Ridge, and an armed uprising occupied Yuzhou.Situ Cen recommended a classmate of his son named Gao to the Supreme King.Taishang Wang hesitated for a long time before inviting this person.

But classmate Shi Gao came and bowed to the Supreme King and Situ Cen.Taishang Wang frowned slightly and asked his name.He said: "My name is Senior Second Regiment."

Situ Cen said with a smile, "This name is a joy. You like the Kingdom of Shu."

The sophomore group smiled and said, "I like it."

"what do you like?"

"There are too many." The sophomore group said, "Pandas are my favorite."

Situ Cen laughed loudly: "Don't look at that thing's simple and honest nature, it's very powerful. There was a bear breeder who was so close to being slapped to death by it."

The sophomore group said: "I just like it when I look at it, the lazy one is really cute."

Situ Cen nodded and said, "I'll tell you something, the guerrillas rebelled in Yuzhou."

The sophomore group was taken aback: "Yuzhou? We all guessed that it's in Guangyuan."

"Why guess Guangyuan?"

"It's close to Qin State and Tongchui Ridge." Gao Ertuan said, "What name are they fighting for?"

Situ Cen was also taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to the Supreme King: "Oh, what name are they fighting for?"

Taishang Wang realized that he had forgotten to ask, and said angrily, "Are you here to ask Gu? How old are you?"

Situ Cen grinned: "It's not our father's fault, it's the messenger. He even forgot to tell such important news."

The messenger just went down to rest, so he hurriedly called him over.The messenger hurriedly confessed: "The villain was in a hurry and forgot to report to the Supreme King."

It turned out that the county examination was about to come, and the magistrate suddenly dismissed a large number of scholarly candidates.These scholars either came from craftsmen, merchants, military households, or the children of officials and servants, and they were all people who were not eligible for the imperial examination according to the law.The Shu State also has compulsory education in schools, and children who are not born with the imperial examination are only allowed to go to elementary school.Except for those with different talents who can be recommended by teachers, the rest will not be allowed to go to middle school regardless of their homework.However, every year some children try to pass the college examination or even the township examination.At first these people kept it a secret from their neighbors, but in recent years they have gradually become bolder and openly invited guests to celebrate.This year, the Kingdom of Shu took a ruthless hand, ordering all states and counties to expel all the outstanding talents who had been identified as having incompatible identities.The guerrillas took this as their leader and led the craftsmen and merchants to fight against the three households together.

After hearing this, the second group of high school rolled their eyes: "Is this a dislike for too many talents or something? Can people be convinced that they have been expelled for such an unreasonable reason after being admitted to the exams? People have different talents. The sons of craftsmen are born good at business, the sons of merchants are born fond of martial arts, the sons of military households are born capable of literature, and the sons of scholars are naturally good at labor."

Taishang Wang said: "Of course there are, and the number is very small. They are really geniuses, and the court naturally picked them out. However, most of these are ordinary people who are unwilling to guard their ancestral inheritance."

An aide said: "The Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, and there is no one job that is easy to do. Some people always think that changing to other jobs can be better than what their ancestors did. If many skills are not passed down from generation to generation, they will be lost."

The sophomore group said: "Then the master can accept apprentices!"

The staff member said: "If it's hard work, who will do it?"

"Since you are working hard, how about your income?"

"Naturally not high."

"Then try to increase your income."

"It's easy to say." Situ Cen glanced at him, "Just talking about building roads, if there is no carpenter's license and corvee, who would do it?"

The sophomore group said: "There has been no craftsmen's corvee in Taiwan from the beginning, and the road is the most smooth."

Situ Cen said: "That's because the wages are high."

Nahan, the sophomore group, said, "Isn't Shu very rich? They robbed so much gold in West Asia."

Situ Cen said: "So much gold has its uses."

Gao Ertuan smiled and said: "Everything is useful, but not for the people. If things go on like this, Shu will soon lose its population. In the past two years, a large area of ​​Qi's farmland has been barren, and the people have gone to other countries or overseas. The king gritted his teeth and refused to raise the tax, otherwise he would run faster." Situ Cen was slightly startled, and whispered "Qi Guo".The sophomore group shrugged, "It seems that many people have forgotten that there is still Qi in this world."

The aide said: "Qi State is weak, and it is right under Lu State's nose. Just wait and see when Lu State will attack it."

The second group of high school said: "If you want to fight, I think it's the Yue Kingdom's trick. Lightning to capture the king's battle."

The aide asked: "Young Master Gao, what is the lightning battle to capture the king?"

The second group of high school said: "The Yue State's destruction of Wu and this guerrilla battle in Yuzhou are both. They wiped out the enemy's royal family or officials with lightning speed and forced them to surrender. The Yue State's destruction of Wu was due to its strong force. The help of the local people, especially the officials and Xu, is indispensable in the state." He smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Supreme King, they will never succeed in this plan in Chengdu."

Situ Cen frowned and said, "Of course it won't work in Chengdu, but it's easy elsewhere."

The second group of high school nodded: "Yes. Military households are relied on to fight wars, and officials are relied on to manage government affairs. With the help of these two kinds of people, it is much easier for them to attack the state capital."

Taishang Wang pondered for a long time and said: "You can't let it go. After all, the number of guerrillas is small."

Situ Cen touched his chin and said, "I always feel that their Yuzhou Rebellion is not that simple. I'm afraid there are other tricks."

Everyone thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of any countermeasures, so they gave up for the time being.

They assembled and dispatched heavy troops from all over the country, claiming 20 to go to Yuzhou, led by the old general Han, and the second high school regiment as the staff of the battalion, and went to Yuzhou vigorously.When I went outside the city, I saw that the city gate was wide open, and the people came in and out as usual.General Han took the lead, and the soldiers behind him poured into Yuzhou City shouting to kill.The people ran all over the place.The officers and soldiers did not encounter any obstruction, and rushed to the Yuzhou government office like a lightning bolt.When I got here, I saw that there was not even a guard at the door.Then he surrounded the government office, and General Han ordered the rebels to come out and die.

Not long after, a few people in official robes ran out from inside, and bowed to General Han, "The general is here."

General Han pointed at them with a whip in his hand: "Are you the guerrillas?"

"No and no!" Several shouted, "The lower officials are all serious court officials." So they signed up one after another, all of them were small officials like the chief judge.A judge said, "The guerrillas left Yuzhou three days ago and took away 23 adults and generals. I don't know where they went."

"This..." General Han was shocked, and looked at each other with several lieutenants.

The sophomore group asked, "What have they been doing in Yuzhou these days?" The judge gave a wry smile and shook his head slightly.

It turned out that during the period when the guerrillas occupied Yuzhou, all the slaves in the city were granted household registrations as good citizens, and they took money from the treasury of the government office and gave them to them, and sent them to leave Yuzhou for neighboring countries.And hired many students to work with their soldiers to re-copy the household registration files in the form of pavilions, and changed all the miscellaneous records in the entire Yuzhou, regardless of merchants, craftsmen, military or humble, into household registrations of good people. The original files have been burned until there is no ashes left.The brothel Chu hall was temporarily closed, and all the prostitution contracts of the fan-headed husband were collected and burned.

Those who are willing to eat this bowl of rice in Yuzhou will be given household registration to good citizens, and those who are unwilling will be given travel expenses to send to other countries.The travel expenses are really not low, and these people know that the money earned by their counterparts in neighboring countries is only slightly distributed to the old bustard for a little intermediary fee, so none of them are willing to stay, and they left cleanly.

The leader of the guerrillas, Shi Qiusheng, tried the case publicly, so that all the people who were wronged would come to sue.He settled the case clearly and found out more than a dozen unsolved cases.Those scholar juren who have been expelled from their fame will naturally erase their original unscrupulous household registration and restore their fame.In the end, they not only emptied the warehouses of the Yuzhou government office, but also distributed the public grain in the granary to the people door to door.Rao has built more than 20 large granaries in Yuzhou City, but there are more people, and there are no grains left.

General Han was dumbfounded!Others were also speechless for a long time.It was the second group of high school who asked first, "Have the magistrate and other adults ever been harassed at home?"

"No." Na Tong judged, "Not only did the family members not be touched, even the money in the family was never touched. When they left, they sent someone to tell the adults to go to the homes, and promised that they would not kill the adults, and that they would eat and drink as offerings." The families asked them why they arrested the adults, and they said that officials are the wealth of the imperial court, and they only rob the imperial court."

The master said: "The son of Tong Zhi Wang said that if their family goes back to their original place, they will no longer belong to the court of Shu Kingdom. Can you release Lord Wang? The guerrillas asked them where they were originally from, and they said they were in Jinhua County, Yue State. The guerrillas said, when their family is settled properly, they will spend some money to advertise in the Shanghai Weekly, saying that the Wang family has returned to their hometown. After the guerrillas verify, if Mr. Wang is willing to leave Shu and return to his hometown, they will let him go back. Pay travel expenses."

General Han was so angry that he slapped the table and scolded: "Shameless! Shameless!"

The encirclement and suppression of Yuzhou hit the ground with one punch, and the army went back and forth from wherever it came from.General Han dejectedly returned to Chengdu to meet the Supreme King.Taishang Wang understood: guerrillas are still guerrillas, but the mountains are replaced by cities.The old man didn't know what to do for a moment.

After more than ten days, someone came to report that Luzhou had fallen into the hands of the guerrillas.The Taishang King already understood that they had few soldiers and horses and fast legs, so he hurriedly ordered General Han to lead [-] elite soldiers to rush to kill them.When I arrived in Luzhou, I saw that the guerrillas had just left three days ago.Just like in Yuzhou, they forcibly let go of the slaves and lowly people in the city, changed their miscellaneous records into good citizens, copied the household registration files and burned the original ones, opened warehouses to distribute food to the common people, and emptied the official treasury.Officials who agreed to leave Shu could be released after their families moved out.Before the Shu army returned from Luzhou, people from Guangyuan County came, and they also met the guerrillas.The leader is Jin Yuanyang, Shi Qiusheng's wife.When General Han returned to Chengdu, Shi Qiusheng had arrived in Nanchong.

Not long after, countless places were robbed, and it was obvious that the guerrillas had more than just Tongchuiling ideas.However, no matter how quickly the officers and soldiers rushed over, they could withdraw at the slowest time the day before the officers and soldiers arrived.Even if it is too late to copy the household registration files, it is always easy to destroy the original ones.The lowly slaves were the first to be let go.

The Taishang King has fought all his life, and has never seen such a rogue style of fighting.In desperation, he had no choice but to release his son and grandson who were still thinking behind closed doors.Situ Cen and Shizi entered the door one after another, with wry smiles on their faces.

Taishang Wang sighed, "Tell me what to do."

Situ Cen spread his hands and said, "What else can I do? I lost completely. Old man, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. If you lose, you lose."

The prince said: "Ask Jia Cong about this matter, he won't admit it."

The Taishang Wang thought: "You two are sure that he did it?"

Situ Cen rolled his eyes: "No one was killed, what do you think? Have you ever seen a second person who did not kill anyone in a war?"

The son said: "Besides him, there are not so many idle soldiers who go to other countries to rob every day. Grandfather, it can only be him."

Taishang Wang patted the table and said: "Your father has gone to nowhere, and I can't find him."

The prince muttered: "Even if my father is here, what idea can I have?"

Situ Cen said: "Father, we can keep so many officials, warehouses, and granaries by ourselves."

The Taishang Wang said angrily: "I asked you to think of a way, but you just surrendered? If you can pay it back on the battlefield?" He scolded them both.After scolding, I still don't know what to do.

But at this moment, someone answered outside, saying that a girl in the Shizi's house asked to see her, and said that she had something important to report to the Shizi.The prince hurriedly asked her name.The eunuch said: "It's Miss Tong Buye."

The crown prince hurriedly said, "Let her in."

The Supreme Emperor frowned: "What girl?"

The prince said: "The granddaughter of Mr. Tong Gui. Do you still remember Tong Gui?"

The Supreme Emperor thought for a while: "Remember."

"I'm afraid the case is a bit serious."

Situ Cen also chimed in and said, "It's really heavy. My father was so angry that he lost his head."

The Taishang Huang patted the table and said: "Are you also rebelling!" The two of them quickly shut up.

For a moment Tong Buye came in and saluted respectfully.The prince asked, "Why come here in such a hurry?"

Tong Buye looked at the nose and the nose and watched the heart: "I just received an urgent letter from Qi Yaoniang, and I sent it to the son."

The prince frowned: "Bring it."

Tong Buye held the letter with both hands.I saw the words "urgent" written on the envelope.Opening the inside, it was a list with the names of eight counties listed on it.The last piece of paper wrote: "In these places, there are people who claim to be guerrillas. They have followed the example of guerrillas who captured county government offices, opened warehouses to distribute grain, and moved money from warehouses. However, none of these were done by guerrillas, but by local troops or bandits pretending to be guerrillas. For this reason. According to the news from our side, some county magistrates and generals of the garrison are discussing to do the same thing by guarding and stealing." The prince was shocked, and hurriedly handed this letter to the Supreme King.The Supreme King couldn't help but widen his eyes.Once such things spread, the entire Shu Kingdom would be in chaos.

Tong Buye lowered his head and said, "The two handwritings on it are not Qi Yaoniang's."

Situ Cen stretched out his head to look beside his father, and cursed, "Shame."

Taishang Wang pondered for a long time, and as he stretched out his hand for tea, he saw Tong Buye from the corner of his eyes, and asked, "Are you Tong Gui's granddaughter?"

Tong Buye whispered: "Yes."

"Do you think your grandfather's case is serious?"

Tong Buye still lowered his eyebrows and said, "Yes. Minnv thinks it's too heavy."

The Taishang Wang snorted, "Because of his protection, I almost let a fool win the Juren!"

Tong Buye said: "Minnv didn't say it was wrong for him to protect the fraud case, but the crime was not as serious as this. According to the law, my grandfather was just exiled." She said while the son winked at her.She just stared at the ground and didn't see it. "If you talk about warnings, it is not the last imperial examination fraud case, nor is it the last asylum case. Half a point has never warned the world. The Supreme King was in a bad mood at the time, so he took out his anger on our whole family. If everything is according to the prince What do you want the law to do when you are in a mood?"
