Blood from Daming

Chapter 64 Luck
The Jiang family in Datong Prefecture is also engaged in the sale of goods from the north to the south. The owner of the Jiang family is from Jinling. It is said that he offended the surname of the family and came to Datong to start selling goods from the north to the south. It seems that the owner of the Jiang family was born in the south. Yes, that is, the kind that eats with everyone.

If a person is unlucky enough to drink cold water, his teeth will be stuffed. This time, Patriarch Jiang was also involved in Datong’s rebellion. If you say you are wronged, you will be wronged, and if you say you are not wronged, you will not be wronged. Qianchuang and Yangmen Jiang's master also joined in by mistake. Jiang's master didn't want to go and he didn't have much goods to sell, but he couldn't stand the persuasion.

Master Jiang is now locked in the prison of Datong Mansion. His home has been confiscated and sealed up. After several large commercial firms and warehouses have been confiscated, it will be his turn. Shopkeeper Fan San is still encouraging everyone not to Fearing that some of them will be released soon, Patriarch Jiang shook his head, sitting there thinking about the past.

After the eunuchs sent by the imperial eunuchs delivered the items rewarded by the emperor, they set off for Beijing today. Li Baihu also went back with him. His task was to escort the 60 taels of silver and 20 taels of gold jewelry dedicated to the emperor, as well as gifts to Eunuch Wei. The 40 taels of silver, the gold and jewelry shells worth 20 taels of silver, and the prisoner Yang Qing and others, but Yang Qing is now a half-fool.

Li Baihu is very grateful to Xue Yun in his heart. He made 10,000+ taels of silver back and forth when he came out of the capital. After returning, he will be the richest man in their Li family. He wants to stay with Xue Yun and drink more soup. Leader Tu didn't want to go back even if his brother-in-law died. Li Baihu agreed to go back only after Eunuch Zhang coaxed and lied to him.

When they were leaving, Xue Yun and the others came, half to see everyone off, and the other half to see off the two brothers Xue Zhuang who passed away.Xue Yun entrusted several injured brothers to Li Baihu with his own hands. Baihu, the imperial eunuch and Xuanzhi's pro-jinyiwei, was also very enthusiastic because of Xue Yun's generous gift.

Li Baihu took [-] men, [-] coffins, together with the imperial eunuchs in the palace and Xuanzhi's pro-Jinyiwei Baihu and a group of people, escorted the imperial prisoner Yang Qinghe to the emperor, and the property of Eunuch Wei was on the road.

Xue Yun is very fair and didn't participate in Fan, Wang's smuggling and traitorous group, and the merchants in Yangmen and Yangmen who didn't participate in it all held up high and put them down lightly. Happy to do good deeds, save the orphans and help the poor Datong people went to the magistrate and the General Military Mansion to hand in petitions. The Jiang family was released by the imperial envoy. What surprised him most was that the officer who released him offered to take the confiscated twenty carts Give it back to him.

In fact, Patriarch Jiang knew that his home had been unsealed, and he felt very lucky. Now, when he went to find the twenty carts, Patriarch Jiang looked at the yard where the goods were seized for a while, but he could only shake his head at the officer. That's right, the officer pointed out [-] carts to Patriarch Jiang without saying a word, and then filled the carts full and asked his subordinates to send them back to Patriarch Jiang.

When Patriarch Jiang returned home, his wives and concubines greeted him. Patriarch Jiang asked about the situation at home. He was relieved when he heard that everything was fine. Then he put the goods into the warehouse with his servants. Only then did he find that the goods were worth more than his own goods. The value was more than five times higher, and Patriarch Jiang was very surprised, thinking that the goods transferred by the officer were left there and did not dare to move, presumably the officer would come to take them away in a few days.

Later, the head of the Jiang family rejoiced that he had good luck. When the Wang family and the Fan family of Xuanfu fled to the Tartars of Jianzhou, the imperial decree also came to Datong. Datong Mansion began a large-scale repression.

On July [-]th in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, Caishikou, a traditional execution ground in Datong City, ushered in its most glorious and bloody moment since the city was founded. About [-] people were beheaded at Caishikou every day. Watching is really lively. People with brains make a lot of money by doing business. Selling food and drinks, even selling fans can make money even in hot weather. When killing people, the big girl and the little daughter-in-law are so scared that their shoes fall off when they run away. Yes, there were not hundreds of pairs that day, and selling shoes can make money. The business in Datong City is indeed booming.

After 23 days of killing, the knife was sealed until July 870rd. Those who were killed were: Liu Dawei, a general of Datong, a guerrilla, two generals, seven civil servants, the owner of the Datong Wangjia Warehouse, Datong Owner of Zhang's Warehouse, Prince of Xuanfu, Fan Yongning of Fan Family of Xuanfu, shopkeeper of Tian Family of Xuanfu, shopkeeper of Wang Family of Datong, shopkeeper of Fan San of Xuanfu, Zhang's in charge of dishes in Datong, those in charge of dishes of Qian's family and their family members, fellow party members , [-] relatives were killed as prescribed by the imperial court, one day more than the stipulated killing. Later, it was said that there were too many people to kill, and there is another saying that the executioner killed his heart softly In the end, "Tu Shen" Xue Yun asked everyone to kill for an extra day before finishing killing.

This massacre allowed Datong officials, soldiers and civilians to see Xue Yun's iron blood. The corpses pulled out from the north gate walked for eleven days. People who walked at night after Caishikou to Wudingmen for many years still feel that the wind is miserable. Dare to walk at night.Xue Yun built a large tomb five miles away from the north gate, and erected a large monument with the inscription "Commandment to Collaborators and Traitors".

According to "The Secret History of the Later Gold" by Xue Yun Datong, the Tianchao Chapter: The change of my colleague cut off my blood, and caused my countless brothers from other races to die. In fact, it was the most difficult period of my dynasty, which destroyed the great plan of Khan's health preservation and rest, and made my dynasty have to consume very little capital in order to survive. Due to the lack of supplies in the southern dynasty, my dynasty's development stalled and famines began to appear.

The court's infighting also came to a conclusion, and Eunuch Wei, the supervisor of ceremonies, Bingbi, the eunuch, and the admiral of the East Factory, won the victory.It turned out that Ye Xianggao became the chief assistant of the cabinet, the capital censor Zhao Nanxing, the left deputy capital censor Yang Lian, the capital censor Zuo Guangdou and other Donglin party members failed. Yang Lianshu impeached Wei Zhongxian to persecute courtiers, persecute concubines, and raise private soldiers , Luo Zhi prison case, a total of 24 articles, and other ministers also attacked it.

Under the instigation of Wei Zhongxian, Ruan Dacheng compiled "Dianjianglu" for Ruan Dacheng in the matter, ranked according to the characters in "Water Margin", there are 36 Tiangang stars: Li Sancai, the king of Tota, Yuye Xianggao in time, Qian Qianyi, the prodigal son, and the holy hand Scholar Wen Zhenmeng, Baimian Langjun Zheng Yun, Thunderbolt Huo Huishiyang, Drum Wang Wenyan, Dadao Yang Lian, Zhiduoxing Yingchangqi, etc.; 72 earth evil stars, including Gu Dazhang, a magician military strategist, and Zuo Guangdou, a blue-faced beast , Jinyan Biao Wei Dazhong, Dryland Hulu Youshi Ren and so on.

Wei Zhongxian reported to the emperor the one hundred and eight generals of the Water Margin together with Gu Zhengnan, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, Yang Qing, the deputy general of Datong, and the Xuanda businessman's affair with Mongolia, and the treason of the Jianzhou Tartars. Angrily issued an order to strictly punish the chief assistant of the cabinet: Ye Xianggao resigned, Zhao Nanxing and Gao Panlong resigned from office, Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou lost their membership.Gu Zhengnan, a doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and Yang Qing, the deputy general of Datong, ransacked their homes and abandoned the market, and their accomplices and others beheaded.

The strength of the imperial court officials weakened, and Xue Yun's life was much easier. I don't know if the money played a role. The imperial military department reported several times to be selected for the post of general soldier of Datong Mansion, but was finally rejected by the palace. After Gu Zhengnan's case was finalized, no one mentioned the matter of Datong Mansion anymore.

Xue Yun has been staying in Datong City like this for a long time, but when dealing with the temporary confiscation of sealed properties by businessmen worth 100 million taels of silver, he tried his best to release some people to go home, but after executing a large number of rebels, half of them were still left Materials, worth 70 million silver, have not been claimed.

Xue Yun used the money to raise Xue Liu a team of infantry who could ride horses, about 1000 people. There was no way that horses were not war horses, and people were not cavalry.

Xue Yun and Zhang Gonggong donated 20 taels of gold and silver to Wei Zhongxian in the name of congratulations. By the way, they also mentioned to the palace the food and equipment that urged the Ministry of War to give to the Datong frontier soldiers.

Wei Zhongxian asked, but the Ministry of War procrastinated and said that the court had no money. Wei Zhongxian knew that most of the stolen goods in Hou Datong were military supplies, so he let Xue Yun and Zhang Gonggong use them in front of the military salary.

During this period, Yu Dacheng invited Xue Yun to go to the mansion for a meal. During the dinner, Yu Dacheng and his two sons in the army accompanied Xue Yun. Miss Yu showed her face and went in. There was nothing special about it. The expression on Xue Yun's face was just very indifferent to Xue Yun, and the gift that Xue Yun brought was left in the living room, and Miss Yu did not take it away.

After eating, Yu Dacheng chatted with Xue Yun for a while, and Yu Dacheng asked tentatively: "Master Xue, it is really troublesome if there are too many women, in fact, it is good for the family members to be simpler, so as to avoid family disharmony. "

Xue Yun shook his head lightly: "General Yu, there are some things I can't do. If I force myself to do it, everyone will be embarrassed."

Yu Dacheng grabbed Xue Yun's hand and said, "You and my daughter have cooperated very well. If you agree to make an engagement, how about I make up 50 taels of silver as a dowry?"

Xue Yun: "General Yu is not about money. Men have their own pursuits. If Miss Yu is a man, Daming will have another famous general. General Yu and I still have some things to do. I want to go first."

After Xue Yun left, Yu Dacheng had been sitting there. Miss Yu came to his father gently, and after a while asked, "Father, what did he say?"

Yu Dacheng sighed with a sense of blame: "Daughter, you can't change your temperament. How can you find a husband-in-law if you raise the conditions so high?"

Miss Yu's eyes were red: "Why do all men have three wives and four concubines? Isn't it good for two people to be together?"

Yu Dacheng: "It's all because of me that you have been wielding knives and guns since you were a child, and turned you into a man. Think about it for yourself and see if you can accept being with other women."

Miss Yu hooked her head and said nothing, Yu Dacheng stood up and said to Miss Yu: "Even if you are willing to accept it, I can't go to him anymore. After all, he is my superior. I'm afraid I want your grandfather to go to Xue's house." To find ways to."
