Chapter 182 Integrity Action

With the gradual stabilization of the situation in Hebei, many local officials come back without calling. For nothing else, everyone knows that being an official is better than the ordinary people, no matter whose rule he is under!

Hebei is so big, and Song Qing's men don't have so many available civil servants, so Song Qing usually reinstate officials.

However, these returning officials soon felt different. It turned out that under the leadership of the imperial court, some of their small actions would not intervene at all, and even come to share a piece of the pie, but now it can't work. They want to make some money from the national disaster and squeeze the people, as long as they are known by the soldiers of King Liang. Dao will cut your head directly. No matter what your official position is.

In this way, King Liang's reputation among ordinary people is getting higher and higher, and officials must pick up their tails to be human beings. At the same time, it also deepened the resentment of Song Qing by some officials.

Hate to hate, who has the military power in his hands! However, there are those who are willing to the status quo, and of course there are also those who are restless.

As soon as Zhu Wu left, a secret report about the magistrate's collusion with the Lin'an court was sent to Song Qing's desk.

When he came back from Daizhou, Song Qing had an understanding of the current affairs of many places, and then synthesized what Yue Fei said to him, which gave him a deeper understanding of Hebei under the rule of the former court.

In this era when Chinese people rely deeply on land, land is undoubtedly the lives of the people. Due to the corruption of the imperial court, local officials colluded with officials at all levels of the imperial court and frantically plundered the land on which the people depended for their lives.

As Yue Fei said, this is the root cause of the disaster. If we want to change this situation, we must carry out a thorough reform of the rule of officials.

Just as Yue Fei was killed and no one pleaded in history, this move will certainly stand on the opposite side of the entire landlord aristocratic class. Therefore, if we want to implement land reform, we must be cautious.

But if you want to have a long-term peace and fully win the support of the people, this is imperative. The situation in Hebei must be broken and then established.

After Song Qing came back from Hebei, he has been thinking about this matter. Now it seems that some people can't help jumping out without doing it themselves.

It should also be said that these people jumped out at the right time, and Song Qing is needing a proper entrance.

Liu Yu, the magistrate of the famous government in the secret newspaper, also served in Jinan Prefecture and is a senior court official. The secret newspaper also mentioned that this person seems to be closer to the Jin people, but there is no conclusive evidence and is currently under investigation.

Liu Yu is contacted by some state magistrates, or senior officials such as Sima Beika. And these people have more or less a group of private soldiers in captivity, so if they don't move, they must be taken down with lightning speed.

After a long meditation, Song Qing ordered people to pass the message to Zhu Wu, who was rushing to Xixia, as quickly as possible, and asked him to deal with this matter. At the same time, he asked Cao Zheng to order the internal guards to fully cooperate with Zhu Wu and strive to return a clean sky in Hebei in the shortest time.

At this time, Zhu Wu's brigade had just arrived in Bozhou and had not yet entered the boundary of Damingfu. After receiving Song Qing's urgent secret order, Zhu Wu couldn't help meditating.

Zhu Wu can be said to be one of Song Qing's confidants. Of course, he knows that Song Qing is eager to change the situation in Hebei, but as Song Qing thought, this move must be cautious.

Fortunately, the matter of Yan Qing's marriage is covered up, otherwise if a large army is dispatched, it is bound to arouse the vigilance of these people.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Wu wrote a plan and ordered someone to send it to Song Qing for review. At the same time, he summoned his subordinates to arrange various matters and notified Cao Zheng to maintain intelligence communication with him at all times and be prepared to deal with various emergencies.

Yan Qing's marriage is set for New Year's Eve, and now it is just winter, so there is still plenty of time.

No one would have thought that in this happy team, the biggest clean government storm since the establishment of the Liangshan regime was brewing.

In the back hall of the famous mansion, Liu Yu sat there with a gloomy face and did not move for a long time. No one knew what he was thinking.

In fact, Liu Yu was still very famous in history in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, because he was the number one traitor. With the support of the Jin people, he ascended the throne as emperor and established a pseudo-Qi regime. If he hadn't been abolished by the Jin people for something later, he might have left more marks in history.

However, all this has changed due to Song Qing's birth, and what has not changed is still his restless heart.

At this time, Liu Yu couldn't figure out why the great gold iron cavalry, who claimed to be invincible in the world, came and rushed in a hurry?

While Song Qing's Liang Shanren Ma completely disrupted his plan to borrow people's plan to divide Hebei and the Zhao and Song court to fight against the ceremony.

What Liu Yu didn't know was that he was hiding deep enough, otherwise he would have been stared by the internal guards. If that's the case, I'm afraid he won't even have any bones left now.

In terms of this forbearance alone, Zhao Guzhao is far from him.

Liu Yu has now secretly contacted Zhao, Ji, Xing, De and Hui. The administrator of the seven prefectures of six prefectures. Because these officials have been in contact with him for a long time, the progress is very secretive.

These people do not fully know Liu Yu's thoughts. What they are thinking about is to restore the original policy of the imperial court in Hebei and protect the interests of their officials and gentry.

But now the court has ordered King Liang to take charge of everything in Hebei, and how can they accept the method implemented by King Liang in Shandong?

They also wanted to find General Zong Ze, the deputy envoy of Hebei, but they didn't think that General Zong Ze had gone to recuperate due to illness, but no one knew where he went there.

These people have been wandering in the officialdom for many years, but they still don't understand that Zong Ze may be more or less lucky. In this case, all they can do is contact the court, hoping that the court can regain control of Hebei.

Zhao Huan is afraid of Song Qing as a tiger, and now he is busy recuperating his energy. Does he want to care about them? But it can't cool their hearts, so it implies that they will make more trouble in Hebei, so that Liang Shan and Song Qing can't develop at ease. When the time is ripe, the court will withdraw its control of Hebei.

For their own vested interests and the long-term development of the family, these people have embarked on a road of no return.

Seeing that the old father always sat there with his old face and refused to say anything, Liu Lin, the son of Liu Yu, said carefully, "Father, the people sent by uncles have arrived. Would you like to see them?"

Liu Yu stared at his son and said in a low voice, "Let your uncle go, and you don't come out. Song Qing is very cunning and can't let him know that we are also involved in it."

"Children understand"

Liu Lin turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, he remembered something and said, "I heard that Liang Shan's dog-headed military division is going to Xixia. How should we deal with him?"

"You don't have to deal with this matter. Father has his own way to deal with it"

Liu Yu hates this son very much. His son has no shortcomings, but he has no opinion and has to ask himself everything. He can say anything. What should he do if he is gone that day?

Withdrawing his thoughts, his attention turned to the upcoming Zhu Wu.

Except for Wu Yong and Lin Chong, Liang Wang and Song Qing's subordinates should be this Zhu Wu. If he is a dog-headed military division, I'm afraid others will be stupid.

Song Qing sent him to Xixia. Although he attached great importance to Yanqing, it is more important to study the joint fight against gold with Xixia. On this standpoint alone, it is not difficult to see that Song Qing is ambitious.

Now that he has controlled Shandong, if he completely controls Hebei, who else can cure him? Can I only stay under others all my life?

Thinking of this, a trace of cold light flashed in Liu Yu's eyes.

Three days later, at dusk, Zhu Wu's team of He Qin entered the famous city.

Zhu Wu has a prominent position in the Liangshan regime, so the magistrate Liu Yu led all the officials of the famous government out of the city to welcome him. And Sima of the famous mansion. Shi Yong, a good man in Liangshan, has already led troops to welcome him the day before yesterday.

Zhu Wu's guard in the Daming Mansion will be handled by Shi Yong until Zhu Wu leaves.

Zhu Wu and Liu Yu had never met before. Under the introduction of the accompanying subordinates, the two smiled and hugged their fists and met each other.

Liu Yu said affectionately, "Lord Zhu has worked hard. The subordinate has prepared thin wine and vegetables in the mansion, and I hope Lord Zhu will enjoy it."

"Hehe! Well, you and I are both ministers under the reign of King Liang, and we should be closer."

After saying that, Zhu Wu turned his head and said to Shi Yong, "I will go to Lord Liu's house to drink. The rest will be settled by you!" He looked at Li Kui and said, "Would you like to come with me?"

Li Kui shook his head and said, "You sit together and flatter each other. It's so boring. I won't go. I'll find a drink."

Li Kui is a person who knows everything. He says whatever he thinks of and doesn't care about their feelings.

Zhu Wu is better, but Liu Yu is inevitably a little embarrassed. He said that he was indeed a bandit and had no quality at all.

Zhu Wu turned his head to Shi Yong with a smile and said, "Look at this Heis, don't let him cause trouble, and you can't give him too much wine."

Shi Yong had a pain in his head, and his heart said that I could control this ancestor? But he didn't dare to say no and bowed down and agreed.

Arranged Li Kui, and Zhu Wu took several bodyguards to Liu Yu's house for a banquet.

As soon as Zhu Wu left, Li Kui became a man. He stared at Shi Yong with a pair of bull's eyes and threatened, "I'm going to drink. Don't follow me. Don't blame me for being rude to you. By the way, don't talk nonsense to the military division. I'll come back after drinking a few drinks."

Shi Yong felt that his mouth was full of bitter water and said bitterly, "But..."

"Okay, okay, nothing, but, you go back!" Li Kui said and waved to several of his own soldiers around him, "Let's go and have a good drink, but I'm suffocated. Next time, I won't say anything from the military division."

More than a dozen personal soldiers are similar to Li Kui, otherwise they will not be favored by him. Under Zhu Wu's strict control all the way, everyone picked up their tails like good babies. Now that Zhu Wu is not here, can they stand it? A swarm of bees followed Li Kui.

Shi Yong seemed helpless, but a strange smile flashed at the corners of his mouth and shouted to his subordinates to follow, lest Li Kui and the others could not find their way back after drinking.

Looking at the back of Li Kui's group of people, many soldiers in Liangshan couldn't help thinking that the restaurant was going to suffer again.
