Chapter 20 Someone remembers
Killing and arson, stealing and abducting, fighting, leading troops to war. There are all such talents in Liangshan, but there are no people who can govern the local area.
Song Qing understood that even if the court acquiesced that the land of these four states was under the actual control of Liangshan, if there were no people who could be loyal to Liangshan to govern, they would be no different from taking care of the court.
What Song Qing wants is not this effect. Liangshan is getting stronger and stronger. With the current territory, it is impossible to feed so many mouths. It is bound to need more living space. It is easy to occupy the territory. It is not easy to make these places occupied become Liangshan's stable rear.
After talking about the thoughts in their hearts with the leaders, the crowd also remained silent. Yes! Let them fight and kill. When it comes to specific administration, it's time to stop.
Some things can't be solved. Song Qing had no choice but to order all the officials below Zhang Shuye first.
Then Song Qing announced to them the decision after discussing with the public. In the future, there will be no army in Jeju City, and Liang Shan will be responsible for the public security in the city. Second, the current general judge will take over the position of Zhang Shuye in Zhizhou, and the following officials will be promoted in turn. In the future, the appointment and removal of all officials will be reported to Liangshan first, which will be decided by Liang Shan. Third, all taxes should be handed over to Liangshan. If someone comes to the court, they will directly go to the mountain to ask for it.
At the same time, Huang Xin of Sanshan, a town, was ordered to lead 3,000 people to set up a camp at the east gate of Jeju City, which is close to the water moor, and the navy can meet them at any time.
After being promoted, these officials don't know whether they should be happy or sad. In the past, they only heard that after Liangshan people hit a place, they would be finished. Now it's okay, even the appointment and removal of officials are in charge. Is it true that the court has abandoned the land of these four states?
There may be people who are dissatisfied with Liangshan's practice, but looking at the frowned and murderous Liangshan heroes around him, who dares to say half a word? Compared with that poor loyalty, life is more important, not to mention Liang Shan did not treat these people badly.
Song Qing believes that the truth is that everyone spends money, so he gave a generous gift to everyone who is willing to stay as an official. Anyway, he doesn't have to pay for the money.
After solving these things, Song Qing ordered to take the trophies collected from the Jeju treasury back to the mountain and take Zhang Shuye away together.
Although Zhang Shuye is a stinky and hard pit stone, Song Qing does not want to bear the name of killing loyal ministers, but if he stays, he will not be willing to be at the mercy of Liang Shan, and it is inevitable that something will happen, so Song Qing decided to take him with him.
The officials and people in Jeju City seem to have had a dream. For ordinary people, they may not feel anything, but officials know that although the flag of the Song Dynasty is still flying at the head of the city, it is no longer under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty.
At the same time when Song Qing led the people and horses back to the mountain, another game was also going on in Bianliang, Tokyo, the capital of the Song Dynasty.
At this time, Song Huizong Zhao Ji had already passed the age of hard to govern. In addition, Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng and others were deceived, thinking that the world was peaceful. He lived with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and beauty all day long. He lived in his illusory dream of becoming an immortality. The government, rebellion and folk suffering had nothing to do with him.
The father is faint, which does not mean that his son is also faint, at least for now.
The mismanagement of the government, the rebellions one after another in various places, and the bullying of Cai Jing and other treacherous husties, all this made Prince Zhao Huan anxious in his eyes, but it was useless for him to be anxious. He had no power in his hands. If he wanted to make a difference, he could only wait for his father to braid.
The prince is the future emperor. This future emperor is not the same as himself. Cai Jing and others are also anxious. In case the emperor hangs up that day and the prince comes to power, can he have their good fruit to eat? Therefore, these people are plotting to overthrow the prince and push the ninth son of the emperor, King of Kang, who had colluded with them, to the throne.
Tong Guan's first letter has been sent to Cai Jing. Cai Jing is also very angry about this Tong Guan. If you say that Tong Guan is also a famous general, he has expeditioned Tang Qiang, suppressed the rebellion, and really won a lot of battles. Why did he get lost when he met Liang Shan?
However, when they are angry, Gao Yu has been killed. They are all wearing a pair of trousers and their buttocks are not clean. At this time, they can't fight internally, otherwise the military power that is easily won by the prince.
After some consideration, Cai Jing ordered his servants to ask Liang Shicheng, Li Bangyan and others to discuss that they must protect Tong Guan.
Cai Jing is busy, and Zhao Huan is not idle.
At this time, in the secret room of Zhao Huan's mansion, Zhao Huan was meeting two important guests. These two important guests were none other than others. They were Song Jiang and Lu Junyi, who had disappeared for a long time and suddenly disappeared.
There are certain innate reasons for people who can become princes, but there is no one who is a fool. In the face of the aggressiveness of Cai Jing and others in the court, Zhao Huan could only endure it, because his biggest flaw was that he did not have military power.
There is no soldier in hand, and it is useless to say anything. The people in the capital were in the hands of the emperor's father, and his father was deceived by Cai Jing and others. Zhao Huan's life can be imagined.
In this way, Zhao Huan stared at Liangshan, which was only hundreds of miles away from Beijing, where there were the people he dreamed of.
How can Liang Shan people use it for himself? Zhao Huan worked hard, and God seemed to help him very well, and even let him successfully hook up with Lu Junyi.
Although Lu Junyi hates Liang Shan's heroes, it is obvious that the latter's ** is bigger than having a good relationship with the future emperor.
Under the planning of Lu Junyi and Zhao Huan, Song Jiang was successfully kidnapped and secretly sent Song Jiang to Zhao Huan's house in the capital for house arrest.
A living Song Jiang is far more useful than dead Song Jiang, and Zhao Huan knew that Song Jiang had a desire to obey him, so although he knew that Song Jiang was angry with Lu Junyi, he easily dealt with Song Jiang and let him be loyal to himself. And let Song Jiang send the news back to Liangshan through Dai Zong.
Dai Zong did not want to hide Song Qing, but what he knew was also very limited, and habitually reported the news to Wu Yong first, which caused Song Qing's dissatisfaction with him.
Zhao Huan's request for Song Jiang is also very simple, that is, to accept the court's recruitment, but he can only be loyal to him. At the same time, the soldiers and horses are ready to go to Beijing to hold him to the throne at any time.
Song Qing's actions on Liangshan can be said to have completely disrupted Zhao Huan's deployment. Gao Yu's death should be a good thing for him. After all, he is a member of Cai Jing's camp, but his intuition tells him that Liang Shan now has a tendency to get out of control. This Song Qing does not seem to be as easy as Song Jiang. It seems that it is time to let Song Jiang go. Go back.
"These days, I have wronged the leader of Song. I still hope that the leader of Song can put national affairs first, help me eradicate the traitors in the court as soon as possible, and give me a clear universe to the Song Dynasty. When I finish it, I will definitely not treat the leader."
Zhao Huan is handsome, but his face is a little unhealthy and pale, giving people a feeling that he has not seen the sun for many years. At this time, he said to Song Jiang in the posture of a virtuous scribe.
Song Jiang was locked up for a few days. Compared with his original black and fat appearance, he was much whiter. However, due to his depressed mood, he was a little thin and not in good spirits. He always yawned and looked like he couldn't wake up.
Hearing that Zhao Huan was finally willing to let himself go back, Song Jiang suddenly came to his senses.
"Your Highness, don't worry, Song Jiang's loyalty to Your Highness's heart can be expressed, and he will live up to His Highness's expectations. After returning to the mountain, he will immediately reorganize his army and listen to His Highness's call at any time."
Zhao Huan nodded and said, "It's not early. Song Tou takes the lead and rests!" Tomorrow, the lonely meeting will arrange someone to send the head back to the mountain"
Song Jiang got up and saluted, but Lu Junyi did not move.
"Your Highness, Song Jiang has a deep plan. It's like letting him go now is like releasing a tiger back to the mountain, just in case..."
Lu Junyi said this and did not go on. He knew that Zhao Huan could understand what he meant.
Zhao Huan looked at Song Jiang disappearing outside the door, and a dark smile flashed on his handsome face and gently clapped his palm.
The figure shook, and a man in black bowed his waist outside the door.
"Is Song Jiang's medicine still taking every day? Is he suspicious of anything?
"The prince rest assured that when he was first given food, he was indeed suspicious. It was the villain who used it first before he dared to accept it. After taking a few pairs, he found that this thing was really a good thing, so now he eats it every day, and it seems that he can't live without it."
Zhao Huanxiang didn't know anything, or was asking Lu Junyi, and continued to ask, "What would happen if he stopped the medicine?"
"The villain has seen people who stop taking medicine, which can only be described as worse than death"
"You did a good job. Go down and get the reward!"
The man in black saluted and bowed out. Lu Junyi's back has been soaked with sweat. He said in his heart that the prince was so dark that he actually drugged Song Jiang. No wonder he was so sure that Song Jiang did not dare to betray him.
Zhao Huan looked at Lu Junyi gloomyly, and his eyes were full of warning.
smiled and said, "You can also go down! Accompany Song Jiang back to the mountains tomorrow
Zhao Huan's smiling face was undoubtedly a poisonous snake in Lu Junyi's eyes at this time. Lu Junyi was not afraid of death, but at this moment, he was so afraid of Zhao Huan. Although he was very reluctant to return to Liangshan, he did not dare to say a word. He obediently agreed and went down.
Zhao Huan was the only one left in the room. Zhao Huan strolled to the courtyard and somehow suddenly remembered Song Qinglai, who had recently become famous.
"Song Qing, what kind of person are you?"
An idea suddenly surged into Zhao Huan's mind.
