Chapter 519 'Soldier'

The sky is ups and downs, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals are waiting in battle.A flash of thunder flashed, Lei Zun appeared in the clouds, and he looked coldly at Mount Tai below.

At this time, Mount Tai seemed to be lying on the ground like an ancient dragon, spreading black and stretching into the distance, as if it was ready to go.

At this moment, the county government office in Tai'an Prefecture was suddenly brightly lit up.So conspicuous in the dark.

The magistrate of Tai'an Prefecture, an old magistrate who is over a hundred and a half years old.He was wearing an official uniform at this time, and he combed his hair meticulously, and then put his black gauze hat firmly on his head.

Beside him was a master with a worried expression.The master looked at him, sighed and said, "Boss, do you really want to do this?"

The magistrate smiled, and said to the master: "Siyuan, there are things that need to be done by people. Back then, Chief Assistant Di Lidi asked me to come here as an official, hoping that I could block the Shinto hell."

"Zhang Wei is too strong. He used the land of Qingzhou to solve the plague and demons. He also commanded the cultivation way, the heaven and the underworld as a monk. Although he did not become the emperor himself, it was his son who became the emperor. emperor."

"Have you ever thought that when a person concentrates all the rights and abilities in the world, is it really good for the world?"

"That was the case with the demon emperor of the demon court back then, but has the demon clan been around for a long time?"

"The best thing is to return the things from the heavens to the heavens, the things from the underworld to the underworld, and the things from the human world to the human world. We don't need a peerless emperor who is in charge of the universe."

"If Zhang Wei hadn't disappeared back then, he would have really done this! Fortunately, God couldn't see it and let him disappear for ten years. During these ten years, we split the underworld, weakened the heavens, suppressed The Zhang family. Are we doing all this for ourselves? Isn’t it for the common people in the world.”

The old magistrate said lightly, his tone was flat, but his eyes were firm.

After hearing his words, the master finally sighed.It was for the same reason that he became his aide at the beginning.

"But Master, today is different from the past. He has returned. It has only been ten years now, and the people have not forgotten him. All he needs is a shout..." said the master.

"Yes, as long as he ascends to the top, we will definitely fail! The people are blindly obedient, and they never know the consequences of right and wrong. But we can't stop fighting because of this. Tonight, even if we must fail, I will let him listen to my word."

He paused, looked at the master who had been with him for many years, and finally said: "Siyuan, you are still young, you don't have to follow me to do this, you go, hide your name, with your ability, you can live the rest of the life in peace." Half my life."

The master struggled for a while, but still shook his head and said, "Master, no matter what, I'm still your aide. If you really want to be your mantis, I'll still send you off for the last journey."

The old magistrate smiled and said nothing.People like them have firm beliefs. In the words of Taoism, their hearts are extremely firm. No matter how much you persuade them, their hearts will not change.

This is their belief and the goal they strive for all their lives!
At this time, a strong wind suddenly blows, the door of the room is blown open by the strong wind, and a gust of sand rushes into the room, fascinating the eyes of both of them!

The gust of wind came and went quickly, and it stopped in just a breath.The flickering candlelight stabilized again, and then the two people saw a figure suddenly appeared in the room!
The two were startled and were about to shout.But the next moment, they shut their mouths.Because they know the visitor.The person who came was none other than Zhang Wei!
"It turns out that Mr. Zhang came personally, so we are welcome at a distance." The old magistrate cupped his hands at Zhang Wei, and greeted Zhang Wei in a neutral manner.

Although Zhang Wei is equivalent to the founding emperor of Dayong, he is not the real emperor.The real emperor was his son, and the first emperor was also his son.He never held any position.

His status as the magistrate of Qingzhou is an official position in the previous dynasty!Darong didn't recognize it!So strictly speaking, Zhang Wei is just the father of His Majesty the Emperor, a commoner with a reputation.No matter how the dynasty changes, the fame of the scholar is recognized.

To put it bluntly, if Zhang Wei had no fame, this crime of trespassing in the government office would allow him to drink a pot!
Zhang Wei didn't care about their attitude, just smiled and said: "I heard that the two of you are going to burn green papers tonight to show up to the heaven?"

Hearing this, the old magistrate said angrily: "Shouldn't it be? What's the meaning of the heavenly court sending heavenly soldiers and generals to surround Mount Tai? Bixia Yuanjun is also a righteous god pardoned by the imperial court. How can the heavenly court not communicate with the imperial court? Colleagues are fighting each other. As the prefect of Tai'an Prefecture, of course I have the right to write to the Heavenly Court to question clearly!"

Listen, this is the majesty of a mortal Yang official!It's not a big deal to scold the gods and dismiss the yin officials, because they have the right to do so!Cutting down mountains and destroying temples, punishing evil gods, and judging evil gods are all the affairs of Yang officials.

Back then Zhang Wei exercised his right very well.

Hearing this, Zhang Wei's expression became serious, and he said, "Bixia Yuanjun, under the guise of his father, Taishan Mansion Lord, wantonly recruited soldiers and horses in the underworld, recruited Yin officials, and suppressed Yin gods. As a censor, Heavenly Court also has the right to exercise Supervisory power, to question Bixia Yuanjun."

When it comes to rules, Zhang Wei has never been afraid of anyone.The yang officials have power, and so do the heavenly officials in the heavenly court. The most bullied is the yin god of the underworld, because their status is the lowest!
But the Yin God with the lowest status squatted next to Yang Guan every day.Every county has a county town god, and every prefecture has a government town god. The town god's temple is right next to the county government office. Such a yin official will secretly stare at your yang official. Evidence, and then reported up.

If you have the ability, you should be honest and righteous, otherwise you will always be stared at by the Yin God in the dark.Sooner or later, I will take your black hat!

This is the check and balance of heaven, earth and man. The balance of all things lies in it, and no one family can dominate.

When Zhang Wei finished speaking, the old magistrate sneered and said, "Mr. Bixia Yuan exercised the power of Lord Taishan on behalf of her father. This was reported by the court. How can she not do it?"

Hearing this, Zhang Wei's expression turned pale, and he said lightly: "But I remember that in the pardon of Empress Taishan, there is the authority to control all matters in the underworld. Can the government go out of two ways? The court wants to go back on its word?"

The letter of amnesty was drawn up by Zhang Wei himself, he recited it himself, and used the great seal of the imperial court. Although the great glory was not really established at that time, it had already been confirmed by the imperial court, so the letter of amnesty was valid!
In terms of emotion, reason, and law, Bixia Yuanjun's behavior is beyond the rules and is irregular.

Zhang Wei's words made the old magistrate's heart stagnate, he knew that he couldn't speak up to Zhang Wei.Zhang Wei's eloquence is unparalleled in the world, which has been proved by facts.Moreover, Zhang Wei is proficient in the law, if he really competes with him in this respect, he will lose!

For the present plan, only procrastination!

So the old magistrate said lightly: "Even if Bixia Yuanjun is wrong, can he surround Mount Tai and do the thing of fighting? Is this reasonable? This is a military remonstrance!"

Zhang Wei sneered, and said: "She is a Bixia Yuanjun, and she can't use the word 'remonstrance'!"

Hearing this, the old magistrate finally couldn't bear it any longer. He questioned Zhang Wei loudly, saying, "Mr. Zhang! Do you really want to do this? Let the Three Realms be your hall of speech, and you don't want the rules of the Three Realms to check and balance each other?" "

Zhang Wei said: "Why don't I, am I trying to do it?"

"Your effort is to become the co-lord of the three realms? To become the uncrowned king? To become the submissive emperor of the three realms?" the old magistrate scolded.

Zhang Wei was taken aback for a moment, he never thought that his behavior would be interpreted like this by the old magistrate!

But the next moment, Zhang Wei sneered and said: "I never had the heart to be the co-lord of the Three Realms, but I don't feel relieved to hand over my hard work to others. I can't control others, but I can control myself If I can make the Three Realms run fairly and harmoniously, I don't mind being the co-lord of the Three Realms!"

"Rather than let me build it and leave it to others to destroy it, I would rather control everything by myself and prevent others from being corrupted!" Zhang Wei continued.

Hearing Zhang Wei's words, the old magistrate was so angry that his beard flew up!

"You...you...you really admitted it! So shameless! So shameless!" He said angrily.

But Zhang Wei smiled at this time, and he said: "There is an old saying, 'When a man walks away the tea cools down, but when a man dies, the government goes out.' You should also know the meaning of this sentence, but if I never die, my policy is Can’t it be carried on forever?”

He smiled and said, "I have only disappeared for ten years, and many of the strategies I left behind have been changed beyond recognition by you. I heard that you are re-enacting the land law recently, and want to take back all the land I distributed to the people?"

When he was in Qingzhou, due to the plague, a large number of people died and a large number of fields were abandoned. Zhang Wei formulated a new land law.The land of the former big family was purchased in the name of Qingzhou Prefecture, and then distributed to the general public.

But in that case, the big landlords and big squires had no choice but to follow suit.But now that the country has stabilized, these people have some regrets.

And the spokespersons of these big landlords and squires are the vast majority of court officials!The interests of new-style officials are above factories, trade, and railways, and they are not very dependent on land.But the former old officials were deeply tied to the land. They didn't understand factories, trade, and railways, so they wanted to take back the land that had been taken away.

This is the real conflict between the court ministers and the Zhang family!Except for some farms in the sparsely populated area of ​​Tianmen County, the Zhang family has textile factories, silk trade, steel factories, etc., and the Zhang family represents these emerging industries.

It's just that these industries are still immature and the forces are not strong enough, so naturally they can't defeat those old forces.Without the strong support of people like Zhang Wei, the emerging class would naturally retreat steadily.

The "balance of the three realms" that the old magistrate talked about followed the old-fashioned way. The balance they talked about was their balance.

Zhang Wei looked at the old magistrate with a livid face. He shook his head and said, "I know you have already contacted some big households and bought some teams. If something goes wrong, you also want to 'remonstrate'."

Speaking of this, Zhang Wei smiled slightly and said: "However, this Tai'an Mansion is still too close to Qingzhou Mansion! And Qingzhou is my base camp. The place covered by the windmill is the place where my heart desires."

"While I was chatting with you, my tree-man troop brought the Qingzhou soldiers to the outside of Tai'an Mansion. At dawn, the Qingzhou soldiers will enter Tai'an Mansion, and the Heavenly Soldiers will enter Taishan Yinfu!"

He said, then waved his hand.A water mirror appeared in front of the old magistrate.

In this water mirror, a large moving forest is moving in the wilderness.And these big trees are full of Qingzhou soldiers with bewildered faces.

There are more or less dozens of soldiers sitting on each big tree. These 3 trees are sitting on more than [-] Qingzhou soldiers!

It was only this morning that these Qingzhou soldiers received an emergency assembly.Then they saw a large 'tree demon'.Then, they climbed on the tree, sat on the big tree and headed towards Tai'an Mansion.

Qingzhou soldiers have taken trains and iron-hulled boats.But sitting on a big tree and moving forward, this is the first time!If it wasn't for the order of the three wives (referring to the three sisters of the Hu family), they would definitely not sit on the big tree and move forward!
After walking for a day, they have already surrounded Tai'an Mansion, and at dawn, their Qingzhou soldiers will launch a general attack to beat down this city that intends to rebel!

These Qingzhou soldiers have long heard that someone in the court wants to take back the land distributed to them, and the land will be taken back and returned to the original big family of Qingzhou Prefecture.People in Qingzhou who heard about it were going to be furious!

These lands were bought by the three wives back then with the shares of the workshop and big households!Now the big family is making money in the workshop, and they want to take back the replacement land!Who gave them the guts?

Do you really think that the Qingzhou soldiers who were brave and good at fighting back then were too old to lift a knife?Nowadays, a large area of ​​land in Qingzhou Prefecture is distributed to the vast number of meritorious soldiers. Everyone is born and died, and the land obtained by military merits can be taken away by you.

Therefore, when the three wives quietly came to Qingzhou Mansion, they quickly formed a team!
................................................

In the dead of night, in the military camp in the city, a school lieutenant was still wondering, the agreed time is coming, why is there still no movement from the government office?
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, and he said to his subordinates: "Don't worry! You take a team of people to the government office to have a look. I will go to the military camp outside the city to mobilize the army according to the plan. It's time for the empress dowager and her old man to return to power. Your Majesty, Your Majesty has grown up, there is no need for the Empress Dowager to listen to the government behind the curtain!"

Hehe, of course the Empress Dowager must return the government to Her Majesty. As long as Her Majesty is in charge, the Empress Dowager cannot interfere in the government affairs, and Her Majesty can only listen to the ministers of the court!

How could a majestic and glorious court be controlled by a woman!
