Chapter 67 The anger of the people is greater than the power of the sky (for liveaben
Early the next morning, everyone in the Long Live Battalion posted notices all over the city, saying that Li Chongwen and his accomplices had all been captured alive, and those who had been wronged were asked to come to the Yamen to sign and sign.
For a time, Jeju Prefecture fell into madness. Countless people with their families broken up and their lives poured into the street where the Yamen was located, and piles of incriminating evidence were sorted out.
On the Drum Tower next to the Yamen, Yang Lin played with an agate jade pendant, looked at the crowd on the street, and said with a smile: "This time we were careless, or lack of experience, and almost lost our lives. Remember to go to
Everything must be prudent first. After death, no matter how powerful you are, you will be nothing more than a pile of withered bones. All your thoughts and efforts will be in vain."
Song Jiang clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the crowd below, and sighed: "Li Chongwen was born as a Jinshi, traveled through the officialdom and became a palace official. He has a great future that all scholars in the world can only dream of. It is time for him to dedicate his life to repay God's kindness. Who knew that he would find it hard to satisfy his desires?
, Ignorant of conscience, to do such outrageous things, I am really ashamed of the saint, the court, and my parents."
Yang Lin was slightly surprised, looking at this fat black man standing with his back to the wind, his clothes and belt fluttering, and he looked a little impressed.
This boy lives in a place like a yamen, where intrigues are common, yet he is able to make a name for himself; his friends are all careless people, but he still cares about his country; he kills people and sets fire without blinking an eye, but he is a filial son who always talks about his parents.
This rescue came at the right time. No wonder it was called Timely Rain. Yang Lin smiled and said: "Gongming, you have made a great contribution this time. This string of beads is Li Chongwen's private treasure, so I will reward you."
Song Jiang was overjoyed when he saw the imperial envoy Zhuangyuan Lang calling him by his given name, obviously treating him as one of his own. When he looked back, he saw a string of agate beads hanging under a jade pendant.
Song Jiang shook his head and said: "Tiji, this is the best ruby. The color is gorgeous but quiet. The texture is as warm and moist as Hetian jade. It is as oily as a beautiful woman's skin. It is absolutely gorgeous from the inside out, greatly increasing its beauty.
Color. It is just the right thing to send to the beautiful woman you are in love with. The spring scenery in the garden is pleasant, and the ground is covered with red flowers. This is the poem of the ancients praising this ruby."
When Yang Lin heard this, he quickly put it in his sleeve, thinking that one day he would win the girl's favor and give it to her. It was so sentimental.
Then he raised his head, looked at Song Jiang, and said with a smile: "You boy, you are talented in literature, martial arts, and sensible. You are really a talent!"
Song Jiang smiled shyly, his face was dark, and he actually looked a little cute.
Yang Lin stood up and said: "We have been delayed here for too long. We have to go to Mizhou to finish our business quickly. This time I will return to Beijing after finishing my business. I still have a big thing to do."
Song Jiang's expression changed and he asked, "Want to be promoted?"
“Conquer the Yellow River!”
This mother river, which is half sand and half water, has become a giant man-eating beast, taking more lives every year than the invasion of aliens.
A flooding of the Yellow River would cause more economic and population losses than a war.
Now that we have returned to this era, we must do something important for future generations. In the past few hundred years, rulers had cut down all the thousand-year-old giant trees on the Loess Plateau in order to carry out large-scale construction and build palaces.
Damn it, it’s time to plant trees, and then regulate the downstream rivers. No matter how urgent other matters are, we should put them first.
The Song Dynasty was an intermediate period, an era when the Yellow River exploded, and it was also the last chance to manage it. The Song Dynasty was unlucky. The previous dynasties closed down the nobles from logging on the Loess Plateau, and the bad consequences occurred in this era. But the Song Dynasty also deserved it.
People in the Northern Song Dynasty liked to use wood to build houses, and the entire Bianliang was full of wooden houses. The reason why the Jin people conquered Kaifeng so easily when they invaded has a lot to do with the fact that they were able to build houses here.
After he returns, he needs to slowly change this situation in the court, and then trick Huizong Zhao Ji into agreeing to help him promote afforestation. Thinking of this, Yang Lin is still a little excited.
When I was a child, I studied geography, but I was worried about soil erosion and desertification. I couldn't sleep at night and kept thinking about countermeasures. I was worried more than anyone else. Now I finally have a chance.
When Song Jiang heard this, he was in awe, clasped his fists and said: "I am willing to lift the saddle in front of the horse and behind it, and achieve this great cause."
Controlling the Yellow River is a major event for the Han people at any time. Controlling the Yellow River will not only reduce disasters, but also turn countless wastelands downstream into fertile farmland to feed an endless population. Although this river has now taken away the lives of countless people
Life, but it has always been the root of the Han people. It has lasted for three thousand years since the Xia Dynasty. Chinese civilization has been nurtured, developed and grown strong here. Now it is sick and should not be abandoned or despised.
Lu Wang helped a man up who was wrapped in white cloth. When he got closer, he saw that it was He Tao. Yang Lin smiled and said, "He Tao, you made a great contribution by exposing Li Chongwen, but you almost killed me here."
Jeju Prefecture.”
He Tao smiled bitterly: "There is really nothing I can do about this villain. If the imperial envoy cannot cure him, I will have to let these people drink up the blood of one hundred thousand fellow villagers and elders in Jeju Prefecture."
"I will raid the wealthy gentry here and bring them to justice, but you will be in bad luck. These local snakes have complicated forces. You will be in trouble if you stay here. Why don't you work with me in the future?"
He Tao became excited, crossed his hands and said, "If I am promoted and taken in by the imperial envoy, He Tao will die if I don't obey."
"Take your little one with you and follow me to Mizhou. Lu Wang, get ready to set off."
Lu Qian said from the side: "Tiji, are these corrupt officials left behind to escort them to Bianliang?"
"If they don't kill the snake, they will suffer backlash. Cutting the grass and roots is the only way. Transport them to Bianliang, and I'm not here. If they are saved by some Liang Eunuch or Hot Eunuch, wouldn't it mean that there will be a group of officials who hate me to the core.
Our officials are very kind."
Lu Qian's eyes turned cold and he said: "My subordinates understand that there was a civil uprising in Jeju, and the oppressed people were angry and beat down corrupt officials."
Song Jiang said from the side: "It's best to tell half truths and half lies, so as not to confuse people's opinions. In my opinion, it's better to gather the people to watch on the way to escort them, find a few people to mix in the crowd to stir up the people's emotions, and then our people will do it again."
withdraw"
"That's it!" Yang Lin said: "Find a few more secretaries, list the evidence clearly, and present them all to Your Majesty. Let's give it to Prime Minister Cai first."
Lu Wang and Lu Qian took the order and left. Yang Lin also got up, preparing to go back and pack up before heading out.
Under dark clouds and strong winds, Yang Lin led the crowd to leave Jeju Prefecture.
"I left gently, with more than a dozen cars worth of treasures than when I came." Yang Lin sang with a smile in the wind.
No one in Jeju went out of the city to see him off. Everyone was on the street, enduring the humidity brought by the strong wind and looking at the familiar faces in the prison cars.
A few pebbles suddenly attacked the elite soldiers of the Long Live Battalion who were transporting them. These men showed poor acting skills and fled.
"Corrupt officials will not be safe until they die!" Someone in the crowd shouted. When the people saw this situation, they became more courageous. The people swarmed up and smashed several corrupt officials into mud in an instant.
In the roar of "Kill the corrupt officials, the world will be at peace!" Li Chongwen and others ushered in a group of sheep who had been oppressed by them.
The anger of the people is greater than the power of God.
Thank you for today’s rewards. There are too many today. I can’t finish them all at the moment. If I don’t thank them one by one, I can’t write them here. I will thank you all more slowly. I hold my fist.
