Chapter 11 Peace of the World(1/2)
The beginning of the new year.
The new emperor ascended the throne and established the Yuan Dynasty Hongchang.
Li Wu was appointed as the general of the country to investigate the Long Ni case.
The family was confiscated and the clan was destroyed, and blood flowed into a river.
Nine out of ten households in Dongchengfang City were empty, and the officials in the morning were less than half of them, and finally got a total of 170 million taels of gold and silver.
Emperor Hongchang issued an edict that the Fengyang Kingdom would not pay grain for the fifth year.
June of the same year.
Li Wu appointed him as the Grand Marshal of the Army and led his troops to the north.
Defeat all the rebels, pacify the six northern states, and lead the army south.
...
Shenjing.
Zhang Zui.
A mourning banner was inserted at the door, a spirit shed was built in the courtyard, and white cloth hanging on the walls.
At first glance, it looks white and miserable.
Zhou Yi walked into the spirit shed, lit three incense sticks for Zhang Zhou, knelt three times and prayed three times to complete the worship.
The filial son Zhang Jin returned the favor and kowtowed, and Zhou Yi quickly helped him up.
"Brother Jin, I will be mourning and following the changes."
Zhang Zhou had already retired from Tianzhu last year, and Zhang Jin took the position of the task. After drinking medicine for more than half a year, he was unable to fight this winter.
The lifespan of the prison guards in the Tianzhuo will not be too long. Zhang Zhou's life is already considered a long life until he is fifty-four, and Zhou's father disappeared after he is less than forty.
Scientifically speaking, it is a long-term worker in a dark and humid environment and has been exposed to various serious prisoners. It is the darkest side of society and has caused great oppression to the body and psychology, so it is premature and short life.
However, people think that they have suffered retribution. They do too many bad things on weekdays, which will damage their good deeds and make their lifespans worse. Even many prison guards think so!
Zhou Yi comforted him a few times, and the person in charge asked him to rest in the yard next to him.
"You kid came so late. Did you go to Chunfeng Tower again yesterday?" Niu Xiaowei was sitting with a big horse and a golden knife, with slaves on both sides serving tea.
"Uncle Niu's temper is getting worse. Are you planning to quit?"
Zhou Yi is now 32 years old. When he is middle-aged, he has no choice but to apply a layer of secret yellow wax on his face. He looks forty years old, which is very consistent with the characteristics of the premature aging of the prison guards in Tianzhuo.
"Mr. Zheng has found a position of commander of the imperial guards for Xiao Sier. With such a great kindness, we can no longer occupy the pit."
The commander Niu is talking about his fourth son. The first three are good at studying and are unwilling to come to Tianzhu to be on duty.
After all, he is a rich young man, and no one wants to hang out with dirty and smelly people. Captain Niu has been worried about this in recent years. Now he has replaced the Imperial Commander with Captain.
The relationship between the Niu family is still in use, which is the best of both worlds.
Five years ago, as Zhou Yi expected, the imperial court parachuted Zheng Gaoyuan to serve as the prison.
As soon as Zheng Sizhu came in, he made drastic reforms to punish corruption. The Jinyiwei arrested people and did not have to change places. He found an empty cell and locked them in.
Most of the former prisoners of the former prisoners were lost. Niu Xiaowei took the lead in joining Zheng Si Prison, and his colleagues who were called brothers and brothers took ruthless action.
Of course, no matter how turbulent it is, it will not affect the jailer who delivers food!
"Then congratulations to Uncle Niu."
Zhou Yi looked at the white hair of Majesty Niu, and there was a dead spirit between his eyebrows and eyes. Once he retreated, he didn't know how many years he could last.
Parents love their children, and they have far-reaching plans for them.
The Niu family’s foundation is in Tianzhuo. Once they have been managed for hundreds of years, how can they guarantee such a huge family business? With those three playboys who can’t even get a juren’s test?
Zhou Yi stood aside and listened as he watched many noble officials and nobles in the Heavenly Prison.
The big family attacks from the outside, but they cannot be defeated for a while. They often decline from the inside first, and the wind collapses as soon as it comes!
When colleagues and friends gather together to chat, the topic will eventually turn to the battlefield of counter-rebellion. This is a major event in Fengyang Kingdom in the past five years.
The Grand Marshal set out in the north in two years and had been leading his troops south for more than three years. The battle situation was very fierce. The mansion newspaper often published the Grand Marshal defeating tens of thousands of enemies.
The prison guard Ye Cheng laughed and said, "The number of enemies reported by the imperial court has already been defeated in total. There are already three or four million. There are such a large army of rebels in the south, so why don't they directly surround Shenjing?"
Zhou Yi reminded: "Brother Ye is careful, you can hear this from the Li family. You can find a cell by yourself."
Now the prestige of the Li family in Fengyang Country is even greater than that of the Dragon Prime Minister. After all, no matter how much civil officials take power, they are not as good as military officers who command hundreds of thousands of troops.
There have been rumors in the market. The south has been uncertain for three years, and it is Li Wuyang Kou’s son!
"You guy knows nothing!"
Captain Niu scolded: "There are more than rebels in the south. His Majesty said that he would not pay food for ten years, and the morale of the rebels in the north collapsed. The south is different, and the land rent is a lot of money."
Among the Zhang family's mourning crowd, Niu Xiao was already the top-notch identity. When people around him heard this, they came over.
"Who dares to disobey the imperial court's orders?"
"Hmph!"
The commander Niu did not continue to say it, and the topic changed: "Did you have refined your internal organs? Your qi and blood have begun to decline at this age, and it will be more and more difficult in the future."
"It will take a few more years."
Zhou Yi shook his head. Five years have passed, and his muscles and bones have been tempered to great success. However, qi and blood are a bottleneck to refine the internal organs.
The membrane, muscles and bones belong to hard skills. You can achieve something after years of hard work. Refining the internal organs and washing the marrow is soft skills. You must never force it. Many people forcefully temper the internal organs, and the five internal organs are directly ruptured and bleeding.
"You are so smart that you are in a mess after all. All your money is thrown into martial arts and tramples, and you haven't even gotten a marriage. Who will support you until you are old?"
Captain Niu seemed to have found the place back, and wanted to laugh out loud, but he felt that the occasion was inappropriate.
In recent years, I have been asking Zhou Yi a lot. Every time, Magistrate Niu has an illusion, as if he is a stupid and reckless man.
"What if one day you will break through the innate master?"
Zhou Yi said it seriously, and the people present only felt that they were joking.
The two masters identified by Fengyang Kingdom are now, one is the Grand Marshal Li Wu, and the other is the rebel commander who is known as the King of Cangtian in the south.
At this time.
Someone hurried in and said loudly.
"Someone just saw the soldiers who reported the victory, saying that the Grand Marshal destroyed the main force of the rebels and captured the two heavenly kings alive!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
The news of the good news spread quickly throughout Shenjing under the intentional publicity of the court.
...
The fifth year of Hongchang.
September 21.
Today is the day when the Grand Marshal returned to the court, and the gate of Shenjingdong was crowded.
The imperial guards stood on both sides of the road, constantly returning to the people back and leaving behind the roads for large armies to pass.
Zhou Yi took a leave specially and occupied a seat next to the window in the restaurant next to the street.
Back then, the night was dark and far away, and I couldn't see the style of the innate master, and today I just made up for my regret.
At noon.
The ground was shaking and the sound of horse hooves came.
The first to enter the city were four rows of cavalry, with traces of swords and swords on the black armor, and they were murderous.
"Everyone has the strength of the film realm, no wonder it is easy to sweep across the north and south. Back then, the Dog Emperor plundered the world, not only used it to refine alchemy and practice Taoism, but also secretly cultivated the iron cavalry of martial arts."
Zhou Yi recalled at this time that the Dog Emperor seemed to have happened a long time ago.
The powerful Long Xiang and the arrogant and domineering Prince Long can't remember clearly.
At the end of the cavalry was Grand Marshal Li Wu, who was still a young general in silver armor. In five years, he swept north and south, and his face was like a jade-like man without even a trace of wind and frost. He was like a young man going out for a tour.
Young and handsome, powerful, outstanding achievements and powerful!
Such a character is like the protagonist in the story book, which has attracted people's cheers as soon as it appears.
Zhou Yi's eyes were low: "The innate master is even more powerful than I imagined. He is just an ordinary person, the legendary immortal and demon..."
Li Wu followed two prison vans, both made of stainless steel, with only one head exposed outside.
One is the old man with white hair as frost, and the other is a Taoist with disheveled hair.
"Is this the King of Huang and King of Cang? It is rumored that they are two feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist. They have to eat three or five living people for each meal. Why are they so old and thin?"
"What do you know? The Cangtian King was once the leader of the Jiangnan martial arts world. He had four sects and eight sects under his command. There were many masters in the rebels." The man who spoke in black clothes and a sword on his waist was obviously a man in the martial arts world.
"If you become the leader of the martial arts world, then you can still be a fucking rebellion?"
"Who didn't want to rebel back then?"
To be continued...
