The Heroine’s Route is Wrong

Taiyuan belonged to Jizhou in ancient times, and it was the first of the traditional Chinese nine states. Taiyuan City "controls the mountains and rivers, and is on the back of the world", "the key to the four fronts, and the capital of the five originals", with three mountains and one river, it has the reputation of "Splendid".

But now, the prince suddenly left the city of Taiyuan, the former Hedong chief envoy Liu Jitang "drove with him", and the large and small civil servants of Taiyuan Mansion had lost their main core members.

To make matters worse, Wang Jiren led the army to take over Taiyuan City and strictly controlled the entry and exit of the city. The civilians in the city also had no peace. Fortunately, most of the refugees outside the city also went back to farming because of the clear weather.

Although Zhao Lang, the former officer of the Taiyuan Army, had also been promoted by Liu Ning, Liu Ning was dead. Wang Jiren transferred the army privately, he wanted to act unruly. Loyalty and justice are hard to achieve. His Royal Highness is the master, so Zhao Lang naturally has to grasp this opportunity.

He confided to the prince the inside story of the Taiyuan army, and he knew everything about it. At this time, according to Master Zhao Jiqing's plan, he returned to Quyang with a few spies and went deep behind the enemy.

His goal was to secretly see several generals in the Taiyuan Army who were instigating rebellion. The Jiedu Envoy of this dynasty was not the chief of the local political affairs, but had the power to command the troops, and his actual position was generally from the second rank to the third rank. If there are a large number of troops and elites, the official position will be higher. If the department is small and the combat power is weak, the official position will be lower. However, although the military commander's actual position is lower than that of civilian officials, they will be rewarded if they have military exploits, and they will have honorary titles.

Zhao Lang spared the city of Taiyuan and took a few people over the mountains and cliffs before reaching Quyang. They were originally members of the Taiyuan Army, and they were also local snakes in Quyang. Latent inquired for a long time, and knew that the Taiyuan army had marched into Taiyuan City to hold on.

Zhao Lang got acquainted with Xu An, the brother-in-law of Fan Long, who was in the Taiyuan Army. The two had a deep friendship. Xu An lived in Quyang, and he was a small landlord in Quyang. Zhao Lang sent Li Xiaohu to Xu An's home and sent a letter, Xu An couldn't help being shocked.

At this time, the city of Taiyuan was raging, and politically sensitive people knew that they were afraid that something was going wrong. At least General Wang was a bad move, and it was difficult to ride a tiger.

Xu An's in-law relationship with Fan Long, of course he was afraid that Fan Long would suffer, and he would also be affected. At this time, when he received a letter from Zhao Lang, discussing matters affecting his family's life, he disguised himself and met him in a forest outside Quyang County.

Zhao Lang claimed that he was the prince's secret envoy, and because he did not want the people of Taiyuan to suffer, he gave the Zhaowu school lieutenant Fan Long a chance to make meritorious deeds.

Xu An said, "Brother Zhao, aren't you in the Taiyuan Army? How come you became the emissary of His Royal Highness?"

Zhao Lang said: "Wang Jiren committed trouble, Liu Jitang was greedy and deceived the emperor. I was an official of the court, not Wang Jiren's. I followed him to deceive the emperor and went all the way to the dark, paying for the lives of the nine races. What good is it? To be promoted to Zhiguo school lieutenant, his Highness must appoint an errand. For the people's sake, his Highness will not suffer from wars. If Master Fan can commit crimes and meritorious service, his Highness will not pursue any wrongdoing in the past."

Xu An said in shock: "Is it true?"

Zhao Lang took out Zhao Qingyi's handwritten script, but it was covered with Guo Yanjin's seal letter, and said: "This is a letter from His Highness to Fan Xiaowei."

When Xu An saw the seal, Zhao Lang's original 9th-rank accompaniment Rong Lieutenant could not make a fake. Xu An naturally worried about himself. Seeing that Zhao Lang had already climbed to Gaozhi, he was naturally thinking.

"Brother Zhao, you and I are irresistible, what do you want me to do, you don't guard against being outspoken."

...

Xu An went to Taiyuan City to see Fan Long. As a gentry, he had dignity and money. When Fan Long saw the letter from the prince, he suddenly took a reassurance.

To be honest, let him be greedy for some military pay, hide some silver, and so on, he can do it for Wang Jiren, and then get some benefits, but if he wants him to rebel with Wang Jiren, he doesn't think that the other party has a dragon fate.

Fan Long also made friends with Zhenwei Lieutenant He Chuan. He Chuan was his descendant. When Fan Long saw him, he first tested and then explained his intentions. Although Wang Jiren strictly forbidden to share letters with outsiders privately, Wang Jiren himself was still a headless fly.

Wang Jiren wanted to find a way to survive, negotiate with the court, or seek to escape north, but if he flees north, the army is also very easy to cause mutiny, so he is still undecided.

Therefore, if the superiors do not have firm beliefs, the hearts of the people below are uncontrollable. It is like seeing a company that is doomed to fail. Even if they have worked in the past few years and have the opportunity to quit, employees will still have to quit. Besides, in the current situation, it is a death not to quit.

When Guo Yanjin personally led the Jianxiong army to fight outside the southern city of Taiyuan, Fan Long, He Chuan, and a few low-level military attaches who instigated their rebellion together led the generals and shouted "Welcome the king, welcome the prince" slogan and killed Wang Jiren's The younger brother, son, and nephew who were guarding the city gate hit the city gate.

Guo Yanjin personally led the army into the city, Zhao Qingyi took protection with him, surrounded by more than two hundred guards, shouting in Hedong dialect, "The king has arrived, put down your weapons, surrender and don't kill."

The Jianxiong Army led by Guo Yanjin faced the Taiyuan Army, who had looked down on them before, and met only a little resistance.

When Guo Yanjin arrived at the original chariot again, Fan Long, He Chuan and others led the instigated army to see him, verbally calling the guilty minister.

Guo Yanjin naturally did not pursue these meritorious officials, but calmly pacified them, and ordered that the school lieutenants not restrain the original Taiyuan army, not disturb the people, looting, and the murderer died.

Wang Chong and other hundreds of officials went to collect the officials of Taiyuan Mansion and arrested the Taiyuan Prefect.

After Guo Yanjin re-entered Taiyuan City, he posted a notice the next day, stating that Liu Jitang and Wang Jiren had conspired to deceive the emperor, privately confiscating emperor’s grain, with the intent of murdering the prince and holding the prince and other crimes, which did not harm the common people.

Cao Jing temporarily took the post of chief ambassador, and Gao Yuanhai, the criminal minister, assisted him in recovering the stolen money and finding out the true account books among the officials. Gao Yuanhai knew that this was his own vitality, and even as long as he showed his abilities and usefulness at this time, he even put on a golden thigh. When there is something wrong with a dog, a dog without an owner is pitiful. So Gao Yuanhai showed his great role in persuading his former colleagues and counting the stolen silver.

Zhao Qingyi took three young apprentices to the market, because the prince returned to Taiyuan city in a dramatic way, and he also checked corrupt officials but restrained the soldiers from disturbing the people and gained a high reputation in the private market.

Zhao Qingyi didn't want the city of Taiyuan to only know that the prince did not know the emperor, or that the common people sometimes mistakenly believed that the prince and the emperor were indistinguishable from each other.

Zhao Qingyi returned to Xingyuan in the evening to report the matter and talked about the stakes. At this time, Guo Yanjin, who was busy but energetic, also took it seriously. Speaking that career is the best tonic for men, Guo Yanjin turned things around this time and felt contented in his heart. Of course, he also knew that everything was served by many courtiers, especially Zhao Qingyi, a "national scholar".

Guo Yanjin thought that he would face a crisis when he returned to Beijing, and he must be prepared for this matter. Zhao Qingyi offered his plan and Guo Yanjin should obey.

On the third day, the three young apprentices "Zhang Wuji," "Wang Wanchun," and "Li Xunhuan" who had learned the three-character classic nursery rhymes again put on beggar costumes, and went to beggars or children to sing "Emperor Yongsheng, worry about the people; Hedong disaster" , Free money and food; there are corrupt officials, Liu Jitang; deceive kings, privately levy food; silver million, hidden in the house; another disaster year, the emperor will not sleep; send the prince to Jinyang...punish corrupt officials, punish the rebellious officials; people are happy, and the king is open; Long live Jun Shengming; wish the great week; ten thousand years"

Zhao Qingyi made up a three-character sutra casually, and he blushed. This flattering, he is like those who are in officialdom.

The three little ghosts went outside to sing this nursery rhyme all day long without letting others know. But at this time, officials like Gao Yuanhai were working for the prince in Taiyuan and were walking around among the people. Finally they heard such a nursery rhyme, and when they saw Guo Yanjin, they told him they were happy.

Guo Yanjin was very happy on the face, and talked to Gao Yuanhai and other officials about his father's concern for the people in Hedong to sleep at night and be a son, just to share the worries for his father.

Gao Yuanhai is a talented person in the camp. After returning home, he thought about propagating touching stories about the holy king coming to the court, loving the people like his son, the emperor and the prince, and the father's kindness and filial piety.

There were not many entertainment programs in ancient times, such as operas. At this time, they were not successful. Even if they were there, they were only able to be listened to by officials. Therefore, this kind of novel stories and nursery rhymes are still very marketable.

Guo Yanjin stayed in Hedong for another month, handling government affairs every day, going to military parade, or visiting the resettlement situation of refugees in various counties. As for officials below the county level, those with credit will not be held accountable for the time being, while several gentry in Taiyuan Prefecture who had a deep collusion with Liu and Wang's family were implicated and sent to Kyoto.

When all the evidence chains have been collected, and the illicit silver has also been counted, after temporarily rewarding the soldiers and staff, there are still nearly 20 million taels left. Among them are the imperial grains collected privately in the past three years, and there are also coal mines. There are also proceeds from the homes of several repeat offenders.

In the process, the officials involved in the matter handed over the real account books in order to avoid guilt, and the prince’s people deducted the account book by pen.

Although these civilians have a psychological distress, it is good not to have their heads decapitated, so they dare not cooperate at this time.

It was also troublesome to **** this batch of official banks. Guo Yanjin gave an overview of Guo Yongqi ten days earlier, and the relief has reached a certain stage. Not only did it not damage the money, but also made so much money. This is simply unprecedented.

Guo Yanjin temporarily ordered Cao Jing and Li Zhao to sit in Taiyuan, while the Taiyuan Army was led by five colonel lieutenants and controlled by civil officials.

In August, the prince returned to Beijing under the scorching heat with a cart of money. At this time, there were a total of 6,000 people returning to Beijing. The army’s carts and horses were not enough. The crown prince also exchanged 8 million taels in cooperation with the Dongsheng ticket number. Ticket.

Although in this era, bank deposits and banks still charge fees, the cost of transporting silver to Beijing is also a lot.

In Hedong, the prince’s trip actually received mixed praise and criticism. Many civil servants were aggrieved but dare not say anything. The wealthy mining businessmen and gentry were worried and disturbed.

However, although the prince’s reputation was mixed, the emperor’s reputation among the people was very good. Among the people, Guo Yongqi was a good emperor who was diligent in government affairs and cherished the people.

However, what the prince did was spread to Kyoto, which also caused an earthquake in the court. This process was really bizarre. The methods were clever and ruthless, and the ability to make money made household officials embarrassed. You know, the prince travels lightly, with a ticket with him, and no more than a hundred people, so he can do such a big thing.

In the imperial study room, King Xin was crying in front of Guo Yongqi, saying that the prince used the topic to excel in this way to exclude dissidents. He also called his methods cruel. The dynasty was ruling the world with scholar-bureaucrats. His harsh methods have offended the world's scholars.

Guo Yongqi was shocked by the prince's ability and was a little jealous when he got the time report, but he was relieved when he heard the king say so. If the prince is really dissatisfied, he should be able to gather people's hearts. It is not good for him to offend the scholars so much.

He didn't recruit the soldiers himself when he got the money, otherwise he would hide most of it. Where can I report it?

The details of the process and the amount of money in the Prince's News were a bit triumphant, as if he had written a good article when he was a child to ask his father to praise him.
