Chapter 163: Is Xie Yuchuan sometimes naughty?
Xie Wuying was stunned after hearing this, and probably didn't turn around too much for a while.

Zhang Dayi said in detail: "The suppression of bandits was originally an achievement, but disasters have occurred in Daliang in recent years, and people's livelihood has been very difficult. It is not uncommon for refugees from all over the country to occupy the mountains and become kings. As a result, there have been many efforts to suppress bandits. It’s a waste of effort, it’s better to raise tigers to cause trouble and scare the neighbors.”

Not only did Xie Wuying listen carefully to his words, but Xie Wenjie, who was not far away, couldn't help but come closer, intending to listen to Mr. Zhang's answer.

The teenager was beginning to grow up, and originally planned to learn martial arts and become a member of the emperor's family.

Before I even got off the field to take the exam, I was immediately hit by a raid on my house!
Exiled for three thousand years, the two of them should have experienced heartache and suffering along the way, but they did not expect that the Xie family god would appear to protect them. Instead, the hardships and hardships on the exile road were covered up by the unpredictability of the gods. The two of them had no time to feel sorry for themselves. He worshiped the gods of the Xie family with enthusiasm.

Compared with other people who have been in the officialdom for a long time, Xie Wuying and Xie Wenjie still have young ambitions to make the country strong.

But when it comes to matters that put profit first in reality, the two of them only know one but not the other.

When Xie Yuchuan said, "It is better to suppress bandits than to raise tigers to cause trouble," Xie Wuying frowned lightly, with half-understanding in his eyes, but he seemed to understand. As for Xie Wenjie, a scholar with a serious temperament, he heard Xie Yuchuan say these words calmly.

He was slightly surprised at first, but then he cleverly understood the subtext. When he figured it out, he was stunned and said in disbelief: "This place is not close to Beijing, how dare you be so bold?"

Zhang Dayi smiled and looked at Xie Yuchuan.

Xie Yuchuan pondered for a while and said: "It is precisely because it is not far from the emperor's feet that it is easy to do things. Otherwise, if the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, occupying the mountain as the king and intercepting the passing by, it will be more dangerous."

Xie Wuying seemed to understand a little bit. He raised his thumb and pointed behind his ear.

"Then the Min family caravan following behind is pitiful, isn't it?"

Xie Wuying's eyebrows remained unchanged, but his gaze became much deeper.

"Five years ago, there was a drought in the northwest, and people in the Ji and Rong states were starving all over the country. The prefect of Shunzhou in the northwest reported to the court, asking for disaster relief. The court's treasury was empty and there was no relief money. Even the border troops did not receive food and pay for March. Xie's family There was no way to guard the border, so we raised our own food and wages to guard the border. Unfortunately, the Xie family was unable to take care of the livelihood of the people in Shunzhou Prefecture. The disaster was severe, refugees were everywhere, and banditry was frequent at that time..."

Xie Yuchuan's voice was low and hoarse, with a faint echo, and Tu Hua was "next to him". He was originally waiting for the system to check for defects and upgrade them to check the status. While waiting, he suddenly heard Xie Yuchuan talking about the past, and he couldn't help but "make it happen" "Come over a little."

Xie Yuchuan was talking when his words suddenly stopped.

Several people close to me asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Xie Yuchuan said, "Where were you talking about just now?"

The aroma was slightly strong, and he felt dazed for a moment.

Xie Wuying reminded: "Shunzhou Prefecture is prone to bandits."

Xie Yuchuan tapped his chin and talked as he walked. A few people chatted in a low voice. However, when the Xie family guards saw the young general talking with the two young masters, they consciously spread to the side and separated the others a little further.

During the day, the chirping of insects, birds, and voices could be heard all the way. The prisoners in the team woke up from running around, talking, quarreling, and buzzing with noise.

On the contrary, it makes it look like a few people are gathering together to chat, which is not surprising.

Xie Yuchuan seemed to realize something, but he calmly ignored the move of "getting closer" to the god and continued to chat with the two clan brothers about the past.

"Several important towns around Shunzhou Prefecture were robbed by bandits one after another, causing great panic among the people. At that time, there were natural disasters, and many people left their homes and fled."

"The prefect of Shunzhou led people to investigate the case and found that there was something fishy about the banditry. It turned out that several local gentry colluded to take advantage of the chaos to plunder and embezzle good land and property."

After hearing this, Xie Wenjie sighed, "Aren't you afraid of thunder and lightning to make a fortune in troubled times?"

Zhang Dayi laughed and said, "It is easy to get rich in troubled times."

Xie Wuying asked: "What happened next?"

"The prefect of Shunzhou found out the grievances behind it, but was unable to suppress it. He worried for several nights that he didn't know whose idea it was, so he came to the commander's tent at the border camp."

Xie Wuying's eyes lit up: "Please ask officers and soldiers to assist?"

Xie Yuchuan chuckled lightly, looking at Xie Wuying with a smile in his eyes, like looking at a cute child. Xie Wuying scratched his head, "Sixth brother, don't show off."

Xie Yuchuan chuckled.

Tu Hua noticed that at that moment, a rare mischievous look flashed across Xie Yuchuan's eyes.

Xie Yuchuan laughed and said, "No."

Several people stared at him intently.

Xie Yuchuan seemed to remember an interesting story from the past, "The prefect of Shunzhou got advice from his counselors and came to the border army to invite a group of officers and soldiers to go back and rob."

"what?!"

"Inviting officers and soldiers to rob?"

Xie Yuchuan nodded, "Since those squires can drive robbers behind their backs, the prefect of Shunzhou wants to follow this example and defeat the enemy."

Xie Wuying's eyes widened with shock.

Tu Hua felt that it was written all over his face: Is this okay?
Xie Wenjie's expression became much better. He thought for a moment and praised: "This move is dangerous, but it is very effective. After all, the bandits are a mob, and the officers and soldiers are indeed well-trained. If the two sides face off, the victory or defeat is determined."

After saying that, he frowned and said, "But isn't it dangerous for the prefect of Shunzhou to be like this?"

Xie Yuchuan said calmly: "The Xie family helps him, he is confident."

When the two teenagers heard these words coming from Xie Yuchuan's mouth, they didn't know what to say.

Did the Xie family have such power at that time?

Zhang Dayi seemed to realize what the two of them were thinking, and said calmly: "The disaster in the northwest was really serious at that time, and the court couldn't take it into consideration. At that time, only the Xie family's thunderous tactics could stabilize the world."

"The Xie family must have done it as a last resort." Zhang Dayi now thinks about that situation, and this should be the explanation.

Xie Yuchuan said calmly: "The Xie family didn't care much about what the imperial court meant."

Looking back now, who can know what Xiahou Jie had in mind at that time.

Xie Yuchuan now no longer wants to think about Emperor Longqing's plan.

Facts have proved that the Xie family made a risky move at that time, but it was also a good move.

Tu Hua saw a hint of sadness on Xie Yuchuan's face.

At that time, it was probably the most difficult time for the Xie family.

How old was Xie Yuchuan at that time?
Is he already on the battlefield in the northwest?
Xie Wuying asked: "How did the squire fare in the end?"

Xie Yuchuan laughed: "What else can we do? We can only allow them to rob people in disguise, but not allow officers and soldiers to pretend to be bandits to force them to provide disaster relief?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was happy.

Tu Hua also smiled.

Xie Wuying turned his head and suddenly said: "Sixth brother wants to say that the bandit disaster on Panlong Ridge is also a man-made disaster?"

"It's not impossible." Xie Yuchuan said calmly.
