Chapter 277 When you finally arrive in Jiangzhou, please be careful when you see the dean
"Xiao Renxia, please escort this doctor to Jiangzhou to settle down. Please come to our stronghold again to talk about it." Ou Peng solemnly clasped his fists to Xiao Tang and said loudly.
After a discussion between the four leaders of Huangmen Mountain last night, it was decided that they would be willing to become another team of Xiao Tang's Green Forest forces in a semi-submissive manner. The reason why it is said to be semi-submissive is because Ou Peng and others will accept Xiao Tang
He will also focus on training Huangmen Mountain's men and horses according to Xiao Tang's advice, and only target the evil gentry and bullies in various villages and towns in Jiangzhou. However, at the same time, the internal affairs of Huangmen Mountain will still be preserved.
With autonomy, Ou Peng and others will still stay here to run their own cottage.
Xiao Tang also understands this very well. Currently, Lu Zhishen, the leader of Erlong Village, Sun An, the leader of Qingfeng Village, Xi Sheng, the leader of Xiong'er Village, the Teng brothers, the leader of Funiu Village, and Yuan Lang, the leader of Shiliang Village, are not sworn brothers with Xiao Tang.
, even if you don’t know each other before you fight, it will take some time for Ou Peng and other leaders to trust Xiao Tang as an officer without any scruples.
At this time, Ma Lin also smiled and said: "My eldest brother is right! Xiao Renxia, I also hope to be close to you again. Xiao Renxia has been yearning for Xiao Renxia's music studio in Jinfeng Yulu Building for a long time. If you get the chance, you should take me there.
Have fun!"
"What's so difficult about this? I'll definitely go play with the Ma Lin brothers in the future." Xiao Tang smiled and replied to Ma Lin. He then said goodbye to Ou Peng, Jiang Jing, and Tao Zongwang, and then said goodbye to Shi Xiu and Yan.
Qing, Zhang Shun, Tang's father and two princes went down to Huangmen Mountain and went straight to Jiangzhou.
There were no more troubles along the way, and Xiao Tang and his party finally arrived in Jiangzhou. Jiangzhou is indeed a famous city in the south of the Yangtze River with beautiful scenery and livable scenery. It not only has beautiful scenery, but also is a good place with outstanding people. After all, Jiangnan East Road has a population.
Quantity and grain production ranked high among all industries in the Song Dynasty. Even at the end of the Song Dynasty, the number of people who passed the imperial examination in Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang) and even Jiangxi Province ranked second in the country. According to historical facts, in the Song Dynasty,
This was also the period when the economy and culture of this place reached its peak.
Xiao Tang and others entered Jiangzhou City and walked while admiring the scenery of Xunyang River flowing through Jiangzhou. They saw green mountains in the distance beyond a cloud, and silvery water in the distance by the river. There was a faint sandy beach, and a few rows of gulls flew up.
The herons and cattails supported several fishing boats. They turned over the snowy waves and beat the sky, while the cool breeze blew over the water, which made Xiao Tang and his close friends feel relaxed and happy.
Xiao Tang and others were still in the mood to watch the beautiful scenery of the Xunyang River, but the two men who escorted Tang's father to the prison camp in Jiangzhou were almost crying. It's so damn hard! This is not easy!
Along the way, I entered a black shop, encountered water bandits, and encountered strongmen. Who would have expected that such an errand would be so dangerous?
Father Tang was also filled with emotion. He was framed by Yang Jian, a powerful eunuch in the palace, and was unjustly sent to the prison camp in Jiangzhou. He didn’t know how many more years of torture he would have to endure. If it weren’t for Xiao Tang
Escorting him all the way, he was afraid that his life had already been lost several times.
Seeing Tang's father's bitter expression, Xiao Tang stepped forward to persuade him: "Uncle, don't worry. The officials in the prison camp only want favors. After the juniors have done some sorting, not only can they avoid killing the powerful sticks, but they will also be able to arrange a plan for my uncle."
A leisurely job can only last a few years, and then all the hardships will be rewarded."
Father Tang looked at Xiao Tang. He had a complicated expression and pondered for a long time. Finally, he sighed and said, "My dear nephew...my daughter, I leave it to you."
Xiao Tang bowed deeply to Tang's father and said, "Don't worry, uncle. Whether it's Peng Xiu or my aunt in the capital, she will take good care of her. When my uncle returns to the capital, he should do his best to serve the two elders."
After experiencing this series of blows, Tang's father was now disheartened. Xiao Tang, whom he had always rejected, not only carefully protected his integrity all the way, but also never used it as a condition to force him to marry his daughter to him. Tang My father thought about what Yan Qing said to him that day, and thought to himself: Even if the Ming matchmaker is marrying my Xiuxiu husband, most of the time he will have to separate the relationship when I am in trouble, for fear of getting angry. This Xiao Tang can It is extremely rare to do this for me. Since Xiuxiu doesn't care about committing herself to being a concubine, alas... Now that I am already a sidekick, how can I talk about being a good match?
Although Xiao Tang was happy, when facing this melancholy elder, he stopped talking about Tang Pengxiu. When everyone came to the Jiangzhou government office, Xiao Tang only ordered Yan Qing to follow Tang's father and the two sons. Someone reported, while he, Shi Xiu, and Zhang Shun were waiting in a wine shop not far from the government office.
Because the current prefect of Jiangzhou is Cai Dezhang, the son of the powerful prime minister Cai Jing, and the prefect of Cai Jiu. Although Cai Jing lost power for a while and is currently dormant in Hangzhou, it does not affect his sons who are still in high positions. Therefore, this concubine Cai Jiu He was also becoming the prefect of Jiangzhou with a huge amount of money, food, people and resources.
Xiao Tang had already heard the criticism about Cai Jiu's corrupt officialdom and arrogant and extravagant behavior. When it came to Xiao Tang's career background, he did not want to make a fuss with the little treacherous minister who was the subordinate of the great treacherous minister who had left a name in the world. Yan Qing is a meticulous and neat person, and he handles things neatly. Of course, he is very relieved to have him deal with Xiao Tang.
After more than half an hour, Yan Qing and the two gentlemen who had handed over official orders came to the wine shop. Yan Qing reported to Xiao Tang: "Brother Xiao, the matter has been settled. We just need to wait for the Jiangzhou government to send out the gentleman to escort Mr. Tang." To the prison camp."
Xiao Tang nodded in agreement, and then ordered Shi Xiu to take out ten taels of silver and give them to the two escorting men, saying: "Both Duan Gong also worked very hard along the way, but I am an official in Bianjing and have come thousands of miles to deliver them." The troops who were exiled will inevitably be talked about. What the two of you saw and heard along the way... I hope you will keep your mouth shut when you return to Bianjing and don't tell anyone else."
The two gentlemen hurriedly waved their hands and said: "If Mr. Xiao hadn't come to take care of me, I'm afraid I would have died several times! I have no way of repaying you for saving my life, so how can I ask for your money!?"
At this time, Shi Xiu also tried to persuade the two men to take the money. Although these two officials had witnessed Xiao Tang making friends with Li Jun, Ou Peng and other salt lords, they did not know that Xiao Tang The content of the conversation with them. The officials had something to do with the chaos in the Jianghu, which was beyond the control of the two government officials. What's more, Xiao Tang not only saved their lives, but also served in the capital government. This The two officials were well aware of Xiao Tang's connections in the capital and the ruthless style of Shi Xiu, his desperate subordinate. How could they dare to chew on Xiao Tang's tongue?
After the two officials thanked each other profusely, they left. After following the process, they had to report to Jiangzhou Laocheng Camp. As for the "incident of the imperial edict of Emperor Taizu Wude of the previous dynasty, all new entrants to the ranks must first Although there is indeed a rule in the official history that "eat a hundred killing sticks", it can only bring down ten sticks and twenty sticks to destroy the prestige of the prisoner. However, because this killing stick is not an official regulation, it is not allowed to come down everywhere at this time. The commander of the prison camp opened his mouth and shouted a hundred sticks, just to extort money and materials from the troops.
If the prisoner does not understand the ways of the world, he will be beaten to death with a hundred sticks, and even if he is killed, he is asking for his own death. However, after Yan Qing took care of it, for Tang Gong, the "ancestral system of the ancestors of the ancestors of the ancestors of the Wude Emperor", they will not be able to do anything. Exempted.
Xiao Tang, Shi Xiu, and Zhang Shun also followed Yan Qing and Tang's father into the prison camp. The police in the prison camp had already accepted Yan Qing's benefits. Although they did not know their identities when they met Xiao Tang and others, , but he also patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, you guys, since this soldier can heal diseases, he can be a doctor in the camp, so he won't suffer much! It's just that except for me and Guanying, our two hospitals in Jiangzhou have prisons. Over there, you must also take advantage of him."
Xiao Tang also knew that in the Jiangzhou area, officials at the provincial level were called "dean". He smiled and said to the chap: "Thank you, chap. It's just that we miss Duke Tang and want to see him in person." Dean, I want to give him some instructions."
After hearing this, a look of hesitation appeared on the chap's face, and he said: "This young master, our dean is very good at making profit, and he is also very skillful. Normally, several of them would not be able to enter the prison camp. If there is some conflicting words, If you kill him, you will inevitably suffer humiliation from him."
Xiao Tang said with a smile: "It's okay, it's a call, but don't worry, we'll just deal with it carefully."
After hearing this, Chapiao still refused, Xiao Tang winked at Yan Qing, and Yan Qing took out another ten taels of silver from her bag and gave it to Chapiao. Chapiao accepted several "regular" amounts of money and gritted his teeth. Hanako thought for a moment and then said: "Forget it, it's up to you! But I have already told you that our dean is great. If you are scolded by him, don't blame me for not reminding you."
After saying this, Chabo led Xiao Tang and others out of the office and came to the viewing hall. At this time, he saw a man sitting on a stool in front of the hall. The man had a broad face, wide lips, and protruding eyes. A slender and handsome man, he was wearing a green-flowered soap gauze scarf and looked arrogant. When he saw five more people coming in besides the messenger, the man was stunned for a moment, then his eyes glanced at Xiao Tang and others, then He shouted loudly: "Which one is the newly assigned prisoner? Who is this dry bird man!?"
Cha Bo accompanied Xing Xing, pointed at Tang's father and said, "Sir, this is the person."
"You idiot, how dare you bring idle people into the prison camp!?" The section chief glared, scolded the officer, pointed his halberd at Xiao Tang and others and shouted: "You These guys look so strange, they are neither part of the army nor a member of the prison camp! Where did they come from? This is the important place of the prison city, how could you just do it casually to kill people!?"
Although the section-level official was shouting at him, Xiao Tang held his arms and calmly asked him, "Are you Dai Zong, who is imprisoned at the section level in Jiangzhou and is called Shenxing Taibao?"
"What a guts!!" Dai Zong saw that Xiao Tang was not afraid of him, but looked at him with a playful look, which immediately aroused his anger! He slapped the table and cursed angrily: "You... Whose power do you rely on to dare to talk to this dean like this in the prison camp?"
