In a fierce battle outside Liyang City, the young talent Han Shie, who was as famous as Li Mi a few years ago, was defeated by the old general Chen Leng and Yuwen Shiji.Although Yu Wenshiji is a son-in-law, his talent and reputation are not as good as Li Mi and Han Shie's. This time he can defeat Han Shie head-on in one fell swoop, which also proves that he is not only qualified to lead the army because of his status as a son-in-law.

After Chen Ling captured Yuan Wuben alive, he knew that the thieves from Juyeze in Dongping County, known as Yanyunzhai, had conquered Liyang and robbed a large amount of food and grass. , so as not to go to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to fight against the children of the family who surrendered to Yang Xuangan. An old fox like him who has been struggling in the officialdom for many years is naturally unwilling to do something that offends so many families.

It's just that Yuwen Shiji, the son-in-law, flatly rejected his proposal, and the reason was very straightforward.He said to Chen Ling: "Your Majesty has sent old general Yang Yichen to recruit envoys for the six counties, who are in charge of suppressing bandits in each county. General Chen, you and I have come to relieve the difficulties in the Eastern Capital. As for the matter of suppressing bandits Why don't you interfere? But if the old general insists on killing the thieves in Juyeze, I won't be able to stop him."

His meaning was very clear, if you really want to fight, then go ahead and fight, anyway, I will not go with you.

Others don't know who is in Yanyun Village, but Yuwen Shi and he can guess the identities of those people just by hearing their names.Just kidding, he had no interest in fighting the [-] government soldiers standing at the right time and place.

Chen Ling's troops fought fiercely again and again, and suffered a lot of losses, and the soldiers were exhausted. Without the help of Yuwen Shiji's troops, he would not dare to provoke the thieves of Juyeze easily, so he had to give up.Yuwen Shiji led his army to join the general Yu Wenshu, and he took his troops to the southeast to chase Han Shie.

Daye Emperor Yang Guang issued a decree on his way south to Jiangdu that the children of the family who surrendered to Yang Xuangan were forced to do this unwise act. If they can repent, their crimes will be forgotten.

This is the ability of the aristocratic family. With so many aristocratic families involved, even the emperor of the Sui Dynasty did not dare to convict easily.So much so that Yang Xuangan's rebellion looked more like a farce, which started vigorously but ended in anticlimactic conditions.From the beginning to the end, the people of the family were not implicated in the slightest, but thousands of miles of fertile land on both sides of the Yellow River were barren, hundreds of thousands of people died, and millions of people were displaced.

Yang Xuangan lost three times in Huangtianyuan in one day, and finally ended up being smashed to pieces.

It's just that this rebellion completely ignited the fuse of the common people's uprising. Not only on both sides of the Yellow River, but also in the south of the Yangtze River, rebels began to raise the banner of anti-Sui.It's just that the chaos of the whole world doesn't seem to affect the great interest of Emperor Daye Yang Guang to visit Jiangdu, nor the joy brought by the completion of the new dragon boat.

He didn't even care about the case reported by Yu Shihong, the prefect of Jiangdu County. Regarding the case of Zhu Yishi, the head of the Zhu family who was in charge of building dragon boats, colluding with the traitor Yang Xuangan, he just casually said something to investigate carefully, and then boarded the new building. Dragon boat watching.As a result, none of the things Yu Shihong had prepared were used.But that's good too, Yu Shihong also breathed a sigh of relief.When Yang Guang watched the dragon boat, it was Zhu Bushi who bravely followed at the end. He was always worried that His Majesty would ask questions, but Yang Guang didn't ask him a word from the beginning to the end.

After watching the new dragon boat, Yang Guang, who was very interested, even ordered to reward the craftsmen who built the dragon boat with ten pieces of meat and fifty catties of polished rice.He had completely forgotten that those [-] craftsmen had all been executed on the way to Shui'an.But none of the officials present, Yu Shiji or Pei Ju, mentioned this matter.He personally ordered the disposal of Wen Yidao of those craftsmen, and did not mention this matter.

Your Majesty is always a benevolent and benevolent Majesty, so it cannot be said.

And the money and food given away will naturally not find a place to go.

Zhu Bushi bit the bullet and followed at the end. He didn't wipe the sweat from his forehead until His Majesty went back to the palace, and thought to himself that it was extremely hard work to drive with the king, although His Majesty never said a word to him. But because he had ghosts in his heart, he was always on tenterhooks.After finally getting to the end, he immediately reported a crime to Yu Shihong, the prefect of Jiangdu, and returned home.He was only halfway there when he was stopped by several palace guards in brocade clothes, saying that someone in the palace wanted to see him.

This almost frightened Zhu Bushi to death, and he asked those guards in brocade clothes who wanted to see him, but those guards ignored him at all, and just told him to leave quickly with a cold face.

Zhu Bushi thought that this was bad, could it be that His Majesty remembered something to ask the eldest brother?

Frightened, he followed the guards in brocade clothes into His Majesty's palace, and walked a long way after turning round and round.This journey was a torment for Zhu Bushi, and his whole body was already wet with sweat.After finally reaching an independent small courtyard, the guards told him to just go in.

Zhu Bushi took a deep breath and still couldn't hold back his body trembling, trembling into the courtyard.Because he was so nervous in his heart, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.How could the emperor live in such a remote and small courtyard?

When Zhu Bushi entered the courtyard, he saw a man in brocade clothes standing under a peach tree. The peaches had already fallen at this time of year, so he didn't know what the man in brocade clothes was looking at intently.The man was tall and tall, with long hair loosely scattered behind his head.He stood under the peach tree with his hands behind his back and raised his head slightly to stare at the tree.Standing not far from him were two pretty and petite women, they were about the same height, and Zhu Bushi didn't dare to look at their appearance.

Not the emperor?

Zhu Bushi's mind froze, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Your name is Zhu Bushi?"

The brocade-clothed man turned around slowly, his gaze swept past Zhu Bushi.

"Caomin is right, may I ask what your lord wants to order when you come to me?"

Zhu Bushi bent down and said humbly.

The man in brocade clothes was Wen Jie. He only glanced at Zhu Bushi, and then fixed his gaze on the peach tree that had nothing to see.

"The old head of the Zhu family gave you this name, it seems that there is some deep meaning behind it."

Wen Jie said indifferently: "Aren't you going to be an official? It's just...how can he control this? Could it be that His Majesty rewarded your Zhu family, and you can still resist the order?"

"Grass people... grass people dare not!"

Zhu Bushi trembled.

He quietly clenched his fists tightly, his palms were greasy with sweat.

"Your Majesty just issued a decree to confer your elder brother Zhu Yishi as the sixth-rank Sanqi captain, who is in charge of dragon boat affairs. But since your elder brother is dead, this official position will fall on you. I have a few words to tell you, Just remember. First, His Majesty doesn't care whether Zhu Yishi or Zhu Bushi is awarded the award, because His Majesty has no time to care about such trivial matters. As long as your Zhu family is loyal to His Majesty, there will naturally be rewards. Therefore, Zhu Yishi has He is dead, no matter what, he is also dead. Second, the case reported by the prefect of Jiangdu... is in my hands. I heard Master Yu Shihong said that you killed your relatives righteously, and personally brought evidence to report to Jiangdu Prefecture. Since you have this loyalty Sincerely, Your Majesty's benevolence will not affect your Zhu family, and you will be the head of the Zhu family from now on."

"Yes……"

Zhu Bushi quickly bowed his head and said, "The grass people have made a note."

"You are no longer a grassroots person, and now you are a person with an official position."

Wen Jie turned his head to look at Zhu Bushi and said indifferently: "Tell me about your elder brother Zhu Yishi's rebellion in detail, there is a little concealment, I guarantee that the position of your Patriarch will fall into the hands of others, and, you just got His official position will also be removed immediately."

……

……

Ten days later, Yishui Ferry.

When Xu Xiazi led his people to the ferry, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. The ferry, which was basically unattended on weekdays, suddenly had a lot of official posts, and some of them were patrolling back and forth.He didn't dare to approach, but waved his hand to signal the team to stop on the official road.

"Brother Xu, something is wrong!"

A gangster whispered: "Normally, this ferry is never guarded by officers and soldiers. Could it be that something serious has happened to the heavily guarded ferry today?"

Blind Xu nodded and said, "Ninety percent of the time Zhu Yishi's matter became serious."

He frowned and said: "It's really fucking weird. We searched all the way and found no trace of those people. Could it be that the people in Yanyun Village are all birds? Are they flying with wings? "

"Brother Xu, there are eighty if not a hundred roads from Jiangdu to Yishui Ferry. It is impossible for us to stop them. But since we have reached this ferry, we can only wait here. If the people in Yanyunzhai do not Let's hurry, maybe we can stop them here."

Blind Xu sighed: "If you want to cross Yishui, why do you have to go here? This place is blocked by the officers and soldiers. Don't the people in Yanyun Village go around a few miles and spend money to hire boats to cross the river?"

The gangster smiled and said: "If they didn't arrive, how would they know that the ferry was blocked by the officers and soldiers?"

Blind Xu's eyes lit up, he patted his hand hard on the shoulder and laughed, "That makes sense! Let's go and find a place to guard!"

At the Yishui Ferry, the officers and soldiers came to inspect. Among them, there were many people from the Longting Guards in brocade clothes who supervised the officers and soldiers searching the passing people. A soldier of the Longting Guards glanced casually, and happened to see Xu Xiazi and others leading the horses. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he realized that there was something wrong with those people, so he immediately walked up to the captain and said, "My lord! There seems to be something wrong with the dozen or so people over there!"

The school lieutenant followed his instructions and saw Xu Xiazi and others getting on their horses and about to leave.

"You stop!"

The school lieutenant immediately shouted loudly: "Officials are investigating the case, you all stop!"

Blind Xu froze, several subordinates looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xu, what should we do!"
