The sturdy life of crossing

He's mansion was besieged by another group of soldiers and horses, and the mansion also experienced a wave of riots before it subsided. It's not that no one came out to persuade He Xiyu to write a letter and ask He Yunzhang and He Yunjing to return to the capital, especially He Yunzhang. It would be a great achievement for King Cheng to take down the Canghe gang, which made He Xiyu almost get angry and beat him out.

The eldest lady sent the soup she cooked herself to the study. Fortunately, the husband and wife were mentally prepared for the current situation, so they did not panic when they were surrounded by soldiers and horses: "Master, use some food, now the house relies on You hold on, you can't fall down, otherwise our son and Yunzhang won't be able to stay there at ease."

He Xiyu put down the book in his hand that he had read for a long time without reading a single word, stood up and smiled and said, "Thank you Madam, don't worry, I will take care of myself and take good care of this He family." After taking a sip of soup, he asked again , "Is Mrs. Ye still making trouble?"

The eldest lady sighed: "She is confused, what's the use of jumping out at this time? She thinks that she will listen to her if she comes forward to persuade Yun Zhang?" To put it bluntly, she really thought that she could be important to the future of the entire He family. With the head of the Canghe gang?Nephew is a big deal, if he can't even settle this matter, he won't be able to get reused by Chief Jane.

He Xiyu smiled wryly: "She yearns for prosperity and wealth, but she doesn't know..." He Xiyu didn't say the rebellious words below, and Ye's various means will not be realized. Instead, his nephew will walk out of another path. Maybe Ye hopes that The splendor and wealth will be realized on the nephew.

He Xiyu is very contradictory. He is a civil servant and he is loyal to the royal family. It is absolutely impossible for him to resign from the court. However, the current court is incompetent. The border city keeps falling again and again, but now King Cheng pins all his hopes on the Canghe Gang. Being a superior person is really ridiculous and incompetent. If the Canghe Gang and Jane’s gang leader can be forced to compromise like this, then it’s not In just a few years, he was able to lead a group of people from all levels of education to lay down such a great career.

What Cheng Wang is doing now is just wasting time, he will lose more and more popular support, and finally push himself into an even more dangerous situation.He also wanted to write a letter to persuade him, but he found that the current imperial court has nowhere to start. Now that the border is in such a critical situation, food and military salaries are being deducted layer by layer. Those corrupt officials don't care about the safety of the people in the world, they only care about making money. own purse.

Some time ago, he worked hard and withstood the pressure to kill a group of corrupt officials, but those vacant positions were immediately filled by people from other factions. How much better are those people than the previous corrupt officials?How many documents of his impeachment were sent to the imperial desk?Now that the mansion is surrounded and he is not allowed to leave, it makes him feel a sense of relief. Sometimes it is good to be blind. He doesn't have to face it, so he doesn't have to experience the feeling of powerlessness.

The eldest lady doesn't have the contradictory mentality of He Xiyu. In her opinion, as long as the family lives well and the children and grandchildren can have a bright future, that's enough. As for the royal family's surname and who is sitting on the throne, yes. It doesn't make much difference to her.

Along with the siege of He Gu Erfu, many literati and civil officials jointly voiced their voices. The border city was lost again and again, Daxing was in jeopardy, and capable righteous men were needed to turn the tide. The river gang donated weapons capable of defending the city and killing the enemy to the court, helping the court to kill the enemy and defend the country and the people.

With the leadership of these people, there are constant responses in the capital. As the people of the Daxing Dynasty, they have the responsibility to share the breath and fate with the court. The Canghe Gang and the Jian Gang Leaders should not only care about their own profits and ignore the people of the world. In the end, it even developed into a denunciation. If the Daxing Dynasty fell, the Canghe Gang would be the sinners of the people of the whole world.

Some literati even jumped out to scold Jian Leyang for being disloyal and unrighteous.In short, the purpose is to force the Canghe gang and Jian Leyang to come forward to help the court fight back against the enemy, otherwise the label of infidelity and injustice will be fulfilled.

Jinhai County.

"Guangzhu, Dean Cui is here."

"Invite Dean Cui in." Jian Leyang waved at He Yunzhang, still able to laugh in such a situation, "What should come will always come, I believe Dean Cui is not a person who doesn't know right from wrong, otherwise he wouldn't I will come here to serve as the dean."

He Yunzhang sighed, got up and greeted Dean Cui together with Jian Leyang, he knew the intention of Dean Cui's visit, Dean Cui came to persuade Jian Leyang to compromise with the imperial court temporarily, and repel the foreign enemies first, otherwise the Central Plains would fall, and the suffering would be For the people of the world, Dean Cui has a heart for the world.

"Master Jane." Dean Cui hugged Jian Leyang after he came in. He still respects this leader. The situation in Jinhai County was opened up by this brother. The entire Daxing Dynasty could not find such a prosperous place where the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. , he hoped that more common people could live a life like this, "The old man came over to chatter, I'm afraid that Lord Jane would not be happy to see the old man come."

Jian Leyang smiled: "Dean Cui, Gao Yi, why am I not happy for Dean Cui to come here? I just think that we have some disagreements on some things, but there is room for discussion."

"At the beginning, I, Jian Leyang, wanted to run a college in Jinhai County. I was ridiculed by scholars all over the world. Dean Cui was the first to stand up and support me. I, Jian Leyang, will never forget such kindness."

Jian Leyang has not forgotten to cultivate talents. He originally set up a school in Zhuangzi when he was in Canghe Town. It was just a prototype at that time. Yes, for scholars and researchers, even if the skills of craftsmen are looked down upon by literati, he also vigorously advocates, not only training new craftsmen, but also improving their status.

In his territory, naturally no one would object, and knowing that following him would bring benefits, but those literati, especially the pedantic ones, scolded Jian Leyang to the brim. It has gradually taken shape, and now it needs to be cultivated more systematically and at a higher level. In the end, Cui Shicheng, a great scholar who is highly respected by literati, came out of his seclusion and came to Jinhai County for inspection. Jian Leyang also graciously gave him the post of dean, because this Cui Shicheng is actually a literati who likes to study things and likes to make mechanism birds by himself.

There is also a deputy dean of Jinhai College, who is an old acquaintance of Cui Shicheng, and he came to Jinhai County after Cui Shicheng's lobbying. That Wang Wenhan once entered the officialdom, but because of his early temper, he offended Shangfeng and was made things difficult by Shangfeng. , resigned in anger and went back to seclusion. Later, Cui Shicheng persuaded him to leave the mountain because of his only daughter. He only had one daughter under his knees, and his daughter married into a merchant's family. His family will embarrass his daughter because of his loss of power.

Jian Leyang could guess that Vice President Wang should go to his father at this moment, hoping to move him through his father.

Speaking of these things, Cui Shicheng was a little ashamed. He knew that his behavior was inappropriate. Compared with what he did, what a brother of Jian Leyang and a Jianghu gang of Canghe Gang did was the real righteousness. The Canghe gang has expelled the pirates and Japanese pirates along the coast for several years. It was a great merit to the people in the Daxing Dynasty. How much I admire Jian Leyang, if I say something bad about Jian Leyang here, I think the common people will attack him.

The Jinhai Academy run by Jian Leyang even accepted many children from poor families. There were various subsidy programs, which truly enlightened the wisdom of the people so that everyone could read.

"Master Jane, it's the old man..."

"Dean Cui," Jian Leyang waved his hand. It is not difficult to really convince Cui Shicheng to side with him, because Cui Shicheng himself is not a pedantic scholar. Hand it over to him, "I asked Dean Cui one thing. Has Dean Cui considered the fate of the people of Jinhai County, the entire Canghe faction, and the countless family members behind me? Whether I hand over all the weapons in my hand, Or if I personally lead my Canghe gang to fight, what do you think will happen to the people of this county and those who live with my Canghe gang?"

Cui Shicheng stopped stroking his beard, yes, what fate will those people have?

If Jian Leyang really agreed to the imperial court to fight against foreign enemies, even if he could win, he would have to pay a huge price. Will the imperial court really appease the Canghe gang and Jian Leyang's subordinates according to the conditions given now?And Jian Leyang's relatives, what will happen to them?

Cui Shicheng didn't dare to imagine that he was a very transparent person, so he also saw Jian Leyang's ulterior motives early on, but he was not optimistic about the court so he didn't say anything, and now he only stood up to persuade the people of the world.

But he didn't think well, he couldn't make Jian Leyang sacrifice the entire Canghe gang and his relatives for the sake of righteousness.

"President Cui also thinks that the current imperial court is untrustworthy. How did the Daxing Dynasty get to where it is today? Has the superiors reflected on their mistakes? And the officials from top to bottom, are they really thinking about the people or just thinking about it? I dare to hand over these weapons for my own benefit, but how many of them will be used on the battlefield for my army of the Daxing Dynasty? Will some of them fall into the hands of foreigners and become their siege weapons? ?Maybe then I will become a sinner among those literati again."

Cui Shicheng shook even more. He couldn't see the darkness in the officialdom. He heard that the foreigners came in a menacing manner this time, and the weapons they were equipped with were no worse than those of the Daxing army. What does this mean?Foreigners lack iron ore, and their iron-smelting technology is not as good as that of the Daxing Dynasty. The imperial court also has an embargo order, but they still have such weapons. Where did this come from?It didn't flow out from Daxing Chao's own hands, the weapons of the Canghe Gang were really handed over, and it is unknown who would be the cheapest in the end.

He Yunzhang sighed, and brought out the ledger: "Dean Cui, look at these records, and Dean Cui will know that our Canghe Gang and the gang leader did not ignore the people, and the gang leader did no less than those in the court. It's never the people below who don't care about the lives of the people." It's the court above.

Dean Cui quickly flipped through the pages, starting with the first donation of supplies from the Canghe Gang to the border army, and continuing to record how much material, financial and manpower the Canghe Gang has invested in the defense of the border. The soldiers at the border didn't even have half of it, and Canghe helped to make up for the rest, and they also bought meat from foreigners to send over, cotton clothes to keep out the cold in winter, and weapons that were sent directly to General Luo's account. Now the Canghe gang is arranged to help the local people retreat. In order to help the people escape the war, the Canghe gang even bribes the officials who set up checkpoints along the road.

Cui Shicheng didn't need to finish reading to know how many things the Canghe Gang has done in private, and felt even more ashamed. Compared with the imperial court, the Canghe Gang has done more benevolence to the people of the world, and the imperial court is still using despicable means to squeeze the Canghe Gang Clean, needless to say, Cui Shicheng also guessed that the imperial court will not have much kindness towards Jian's family and the Canghe Gang in the end, and will only eradicate them as soon as possible, so that they can sleep peacefully.

Cui Shicheng returned the account book to He Yunzhang, and bowed respectfully to both of them: "This old man is worrying too much, Lord Jian is more thoughtful than this old man, I really shouldn't risk the lives of the entire Canghe gang, old man is at ease Just be my dean, and teach Jane some useful talents to live up to the trust of the leader."

Jian Leyang quickly helped Cui Shicheng up: "Dean Cui acts like this because he has the hearts of the people in the world. Neither I nor the Canghe gang will blame Dean Cui. Whether it's me, the Canghe gang or the people in Jinhai County, You can't do without Dean Cui, please rest assured, Dean Cui, Jian Leyang will do what he can."

"Okay!" Cui Shicheng reassured, he also believed that people like Jian Leyang would not ignore the people of the world, but just a villain who took advantage of the fire to rob.

Seeing off Cui Shicheng, Jian Leyang also heaved a sigh of relief, and shook his head with a smile at He Yunzhang: "This old Mr. Cui is actually a very innocent and kind person, and fortunately he is so."

He Yunzhang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, that's not the case. Our Canghe gang can't recruit Mr. Cui either. The old man can be said to have thrown himself into a trap."

The account book was owned by the Canghe Gang early in the morning. Of course, Jian Leyang will not let the Canghe Gang’s contribution be left behind. Now that pots of sewage are pouring over them, these things are the best weapon to fight back, but they don’t need to They take the initiative to take it out, and then we will see how many practical things those so-called insightful people have done for the people of the world.

After Cui Shicheng left, he met Wang Wenhan on the way. One came out of the headquarters of the Canghe Gang, and the other came back from the county government office. The two looked at each other and smiled wryly. The other party was persuaded to retreat by the other party.

Wang Wenhan stroked his beard and said: "President Cui must be the same as Wang. Master Jian will not rest assured that the court will hand over the fate of himself and Canghe Gang to the court, and Master Jian does not believe that the court will really treat his children and Canghe well." Helping a few people, to be honest, even Wang can't trust the court, the court's actions are really chilling."

In fact, he didn't have much confidence in going to Mrs. Jane's side, not half as good as Cui Shicheng, and the result was exactly as he expected. Mrs. Jian attaches great importance to his children, and even if he is infamous, he will not sacrifice his children. If someone forces him like this His daughter and grandson, he...wouldn't care about those so-called righteousness.
