"Oh, let's forget it!" Zhou Ping thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind: "At most I will hand over the military power and be Guo Ziyi at that time. Zhao Ji is not the kind of ruthless person who can kill him. Build a large garden of thousands of acres and enjoy the life of ancient dignitaries. He is extravagant and desireless without anyone criticizing him. This is also great!" Thinking of this, Zhou Ping lay back on the bed. At this moment, he seemed to relax all over his body. A kind face suddenly flashed in front of his eyes. He was about to smile, as if he was praising the choice he had just made.

In March of the third year of Xuanhe, Zhou Ping led his troops back to Jeju. Outside the city gate, he was not only a "horizontal rank" and was transferred to an imperial edict from the seventh-rank Xuan Zhenglang and the Beijing-East Road to recruit envoys, but also his wife Yunniang, who was pregnant with a big belly and a pregnant wife.

"Juncheng, this is a double happiness!" Xue Liangchen smiled very cheerfully: "Grandpa Han has told the court angels that you can prepare in Jeju for the first half of the month before taking office in Guide Mansion!"

"Thank you for your understanding!" Zhou Ping hurriedly thanked the city from afar, then quickly stepped forward, reached out to support Yunniang, and whispered: "The wind outside is strong, you are heavy, just wait at home, why bother to greet me?"

Seeing that her husband was so intimate in front of everyone, Yunniang couldn't help but be happy and shy, she lowered her head and whispered: "What's the matter? I'm not made of mud, and the wind can blow it. I'm still working in the fields with a big belly in the countryside? Besides, I haven't seen him for so long, and I miss my husband very much-" Speaking of this, Yunniang's cheeks were flushed, like fire.

After hearing what his wife said, Zhou Ping couldn't help but feel warm. He took off his outer robe and gently put it on Yunniang, whispering: "The countryside is the countryside, and you are also the wife of the official family now. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the children in your stomach, but you must not do this!"

Xue Liangchen looked at Zhou Ping and Yunniang intimately, and smiled on his face. Zhou Ping was his own family, and Yunniang even looked at the growing up and saw that they were harmonious with each other. He looked at the sun and smiled and said, "Juncheng, it's getting late, and Mr. Han is still waiting in the government office. Let's go into the city!"

"Thank you, my husband, please remind me!" Zhou Ping hurriedly thanked him. He first asked his wife to wear her clothes to get into the sedan chair. He jumped onto the horse and entered the city side by side with Xue Liangchen. The soldiers who followed wrote the military achievements they had made on the cloth and raised them high, and behind them were all kinds of spoils and rewards. The people of Jeju stood on both sides of the road, looking at the rare excitement. The soldiers also felt very proud, all of whom were erect and looked like they were returning from victory.

"Juncheng, I received the gift you sent to the fourth brother to bring back!" Xue Liangchen suddenly whispered: "It's just too heavy!"

"Haha!" Zhou Ping smiled and said, "It's just some local products, so you don't have to take it to your heart. If you don't have a husband, how could I have today? It's just a matter of expressing my feelings!"

When Xue Liangchen heard this, a shadow appeared on his face and whispered: "Juncheng, let me ask you something. You have done a good job in Jiangnan and have defeated the thief several times. Why did Fang La come back but you have not been awarded the title yet? But what happened?"

"It's just a struggle for merit!" Zhou Ping showed a sarcastic smile on his face. He recommended himself to Tong Guan who knew about the gang Yuan Cave to Tong Guan, but Tong Guan sent him back and explained the matter of replacing his confidant. Finally, he said: "In fact, this is also a good thing. Those gang Yuan Caves are the fundamental place of Manichaeism. If they are attacked, they will definitely fight to the death. The beasts are in the cave, and hundreds of people will be deterred. Even if they can break the thief, how many heroes who go with me can come back alive? Anyway, we have made great contributions, and we have obtained a lot of gold, silver and wealth. Maintaining the prosperity is the right way!"

"Juncheng, you said so!" Xue Liangchen laughed at this and said, "But you are the one who is the most advantageous and you will never do anything that you suffer!"

"Mr. Lang is joking!" Zhou Ping smiled slightly and asked, "Mr. Lang. The court asked me to go to the East and West Road to recruit envoys of Laoshizijing. As far as I know, it seems that there was no such official position in the past, right?"

"Not bad!" Xue Liangchen nodded: "This is an official position just established at the beginning of this year. You have never known that you have gone to Jiangnan. Even the court's confidant this year is not peaceful this year!" Speaking of this, Xue Liangchen couldn't help but sigh, his face full of worry. It turned out that this trick of capturing envoys was to capture military officers who recruited thieves. The Northern Song Dynasty divided the world into fifteen routes. As the financial and tax collection unit, the agency of the route was called the Transportation Office. As the name suggests, the main task of the Transportation Office is to transport the finance and tax paid by each military prefecture to the capital Bianliang. It does not have the administrative function of capturing thieves, and naturally there is no such official as capturing envoys from the east and west roads. And the east and west roads of the world are one of the fifteen routes in the world.

Including today's northern Jiangsu, central and western Shandong Province, eastern Henan Province, and northern Anhui Province. Just look at the map and you will know that the east and west Jing Road is close to Bianliang. It can be said that the west and west Jing Road is close to Bianliang. There is a large section of the canal that is related to the life and death of Bianliang. If the Fang La Rebellion in Jiangnan was a knife in the thigh for the Northern Song Dynasty, then something happened to the east and west Jing Road was caused by heavy internal organs, which was directly related to the survival of the country. The imperial court specially set up a recruitment and capture envoy at the road level, which can only explain one problem. The local situation has been bad to a considerable situation, so that military officers at the state and county levels are no longer enough to quell the thieves. Special official positions must be set up at the road level to deal with these thieves.

"The situation is so bad?" Zhou Ping frowned: "When I left, didn't I handle everything in Liangshan?"

"You don't understand!" Xue Liangchen sighed: "Not long ago, the imperial court conducted a lawsuit against the whole world and paid money. He thought that it was to charge Liao military expenses, and corrupt officials collected additional levies. He didn't know how many. The middle-class households led many to destroy their families. Most of them had powerful people who abandoned their families and went into the mountains and forests, thinking that they were robbed. Now, the north and south of Henan are no longer the same as before." Speaking of this, Xue Liangchen shook his head and said: "It's not that I opposed the imperial court's great cause to restore Yan Yun, but Yan Yun is still from other people's houses, but his military state is in chaos. So what should I do?"

Zhou Ping nodded without saying anything. What Xue Liangchen said was completely beyond his expectations. After all, in the history textbooks of primary and secondary schools he had studied, he only recorded the "big things" such as the conquest of Fang La, the alliance on the sea, and the Jin soldiers going south, but these "small things" like this cannot be recorded at all. Even if Zhou Ping was recorded, it would definitely be a passing cloud and could not remember them at all. After all, even the operas were all emperors, generals, talented men and beautiful women, and how many farmers were there to sing about the fields!

While they were talking, the two had already arrived at the gate of the magistrate's yamen. Zhou Ping saw Han Xiaozhou standing at the door, and hurriedly jumped off his horse, stepped forward a few steps, bowed down and said, "Please pay homage to the magistrate's magistrate!"

"Everyone is exempted from gifts!" Han Xiaozhou went down the steps and helped Zhou Ping up and said, "I'm really relieved to go there!"

"It's all about teaching and training in everyday life!" Zhou Ping hurriedly thanked. Han and Zhou gave in a few times, and finally Zhou Ping pulled down half of his shoulders and sat down with the host and the host and the banquet was not mentioned.

During these days in Jeju, Zhou Ping was busy socializing guests while packing his luggage and preparing to go to Guide Mansion to take office. It was already mid-April when he arrived in Guide Mansion and was trapped in the ocean of social engagements. At this time, he was already from the seventh-rank Xuan Zhenglang, who had already entered the ranks of intermediate military officers, and his salary and benefits were greatly improved, so he naturally had to show off some pomp. If someone else had changed to his position, he would naturally be wherever he went, and he would bring fifty or sixty masters of the Huguanpu and the wonderful people who wrote lyrics and chanted poems. However, Zhou Ping was behind him forty or fifty heroes with scars on his face and with a knife on his back, not like he was going to go to a banquet and socializing, but like he was going to fight. So in less than half a month, he had a reputation as a "reckless man" in the officialdom of Guide Mansion. Zhou Ping was too lazy to deal with it. In addition to training soldiers in the barracks, he was just mixed with several veterans in the Transportation Department.

The reason for Zhou Ping to do this is very simple. This Transportation Department is commonly known as the Caosi. It holds the responsibility of transferring wealth and fortunes in all walks of life and has great power. In order to prevent transfers from being large, the central government of the Northern Song Dynasty increased the frequency of transfers of various transportation, and generally one or two liang will be replaced. So in fact, the one who knows the best of Dingkou, the specialties, the finance and taxes, and the transportation consumption of the various prefectures is the clerks of each room. If Zhou Ping knew about the affairs of the military valley, the first person to ask for advice was these elderly officials.

That day he had just returned from the barracks. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Li Bao coming forward to report: "Zen Master Zhishan is here!"

"Seriously?" Zhou Ping was overjoyed and hurriedly threw the whip in his hand to others. He quickly walked into the mansion and shouted: "Why didn't the Zen master come early to send someone to inform me, so I can welcome you outside the city!"

Zen Master Zhishan's black clothes and straw shoes have a lot of wrinkles on his face compared to before the New Year. He has become much older. Seeing Zhou Ping coming, he hurriedly stood up and smiled, "How dare I be a jealous guest, this uninvited villain, be welcomed by him!" He looked up and down at Zhou Ping next time, with a satisfied smile on his face: "I have heard from Liangchen that you are in Jiangnan, and they all turned out to be a hero in the world. He stood out in his vertebrae! In just a few years, he had such a state of mind."

"The Zen master laughed!" Zhou Ping patted the Pingji side, pointed to the thick stack of documents on it and smiled bitterly: "Just just arrived at the office, there were bandits everywhere on the east and west roads of Beijing, and these were all urgent documents from various military states, but the soldiers I used were still less than 500 people brought from Jeju, which was at a loss!"

Zhou Ping was chatting about how the imperial guards stationed in Guide Mansion were unable to use and how difficult it was for the boss of the Transportation Office to deal with it. After talking for a while, he found that the other party had no reaction. After looking closely, he found that Zhishan had frowns and his eyes were dull, as if he was already thinking about other things.
