Chapter 1571 Xie Zhiyuan
Next, without Luo Chong asking questions one by one, Xie Zhiyuan explained the reason why he was forced to get rid of the thief.
Simply put, he is a juren from Wuyuan County in Guangling. He plans to go to the capital to participate in the imperial examination next year, but Wuyuan County is the second county that was affected by this rebellion. Before he could react, he was captured alive by the thief and forced to rebel together.
He still attaches great importance to him as a scholar, and he finally conquered him.
However, this kind of subjugation was a stopgap trick for Xie Zhiyuan. He claimed that he was not afraid of death, but after studying hard for ten years, he died like this. He was really unwilling to accept it, and then he mingled in the thief group all kinds of things...
"Thousands of households are aware of it. On the surface, I am giving them advice, but in fact, I also try my best to protect the people's conscience as much as possible, so as not to die without any need."
Xie Zhiyuan distinguished himself: "For example, I deliberately provoked the gathering last night to cause trouble, just to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers in advance and arrest us. I even fought for this opportunity to go out alone to take charge of the action, so that I could win the trust of the thief leader."
There is no need to say more about the sufferings. Anyway, Luo Chong can see if what he is telling is the truth. Besides, a juren studied hard for the sake of becoming an official and could not be willing to participate in the rebellion unless he hated the court to the core.
Luo Chong didn't doubt it, but just asked him: "When you interrogate last night, why didn't you say this?"
"I'm wronged Lord Qianhu!"
Xie Zhiyuan hurriedly explained: "Your soldier is too impatient. A thief confessed me. Your soldier only asked me one question, are you together? I just nodded, and before I could explain, I kicked me down and jammed my mouth, shouting, next one!"
Luo Chong couldn't help laughing. It was true that there were too many refugees and not enough staff, so there was no time to interrogate them carefully. The soldiers were rough people, and they were all very irritable. He, a scholar, spoke and did things slowly. How could the rough-headed soldiers have so much patience?
Luo Chong didn't care whether Xie Zhiyuan had been guilty of being a thief. He could be sure that he was not voluntarily, so he asked: "Are there any relatives at the hands of the thief?"
“Luckily not.”
Xie Zhiyuan replied: "It's also my parents' luck. I went to Cangzhou two months ago to find a new home, and happened to escape the disaster."
"Do you want to move to Cangzhou?"
Luo Chong asked casually.
"Yes, sir."
Xie Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, but replied: "This is based on the following suggestions. It is predicted that our Guangning will likely cause disasters in the next few years. It is better to move to Cangzhou and be closer to the capital, which will also benefit my imperial examination next year."
"Yeah?"
After hearing what he said, Luo Chong knew that this guy was not a dumb scholar, and his prediction of the general trend of the world was not worse than that of Old Man Song. However, he had not yet realized his long-cherished wish to become an official, and he was not as open-minded as Old Man Song, and he still had some obsession in his heart.
Moreover, he is not the kind of tyrant who is willing to be a thief. He can follow the thief and find an opportunity to escape. He can still gain the trust of the thief so quickly. He has outstanding abilities in all aspects. However, when a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain it clearly, but he just runs into the arrogant soldiers under his command, and is almost beheaded and killed.
"That's right, Lord Qianhu, I think..."
Xie Zhiyuan was excited and made a quick analysis below, trying to prove his judgment on the general trend of the world. However, Luo Chong knew better than him and didn't listen at all.
"Okay, okay, I know better about the current situation than you."
Luo Chong did not hide it and said bluntly: "It's just that I am a military officer. As the saying goes, heroes come from troubled times, and it happens to be the most ideal amusement park for people like me. You are afraid of the chaos here, but to me, it is like a dragon swimming in the sea."
"Master Qianhu!"
Xie Zhiyuan's eyes lit up. Just by the four words "Dragons wander in the sea", you can tell that Qianhu is actually a person with great ambitions. Little did he know that if there is no ambition, Luo Chong was just enjoying life.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you, so..."
Luo Chong said lightly: "Working under my hands for two years, you will erase all the stains you have ever been from the thief. At that time, not only will you give you freedom, fulfill your dream of imperial examinations, but you can also ensure that your career will be smooth. Give you ten breaths and think carefully."
In just ten breaths, how can I think carefully...
But Xie Zhiyuan is really not a fool. He almost didn't hesitate and nodded immediately: "I am very grateful for the appreciation of the Lord Qianhu."
This guy can just follow the thief for a while, so there will be nothing unacceptable to following Luo Chong for two years. What moved him the most was that he could completely erase his own thief stains and would not affect his future career.
You know, although you are forced to follow the thief, it is a stain after all, and it will affect your future.
But now, a local official like Luo Chong has arrested him and is willing to help him hide it, so it would be better. As long as Luo Chong doesn't say it, no one will believe those rebels' words.
At worst, you can just take the imperial examination two years later. During this period, don’t put down your homework, and be able to practice it locally and correct some of the unrealistic weaknesses. The exam results may be better at that time.
In addition, Luo Chong's ambition just revealed also touched him. If he could meet a military officer who made a difference in advance, it would be of great benefit to his future career.
Although all dynasties have always valued culture over military affairs to varying degrees, it is a time when military officials are in troubled times, and the authority and influence of military officials are still very strong.
The scholars have a good brain. Xie Zhiyuan thought about these situations in the blink of an eye, and then he agreed to Luo Chong so happily.
"If you don't say too much, if you walk around here, you will naturally have more opinions and ideas."
Luo Chong didn't need to brag and immediately ordered his men: "Send Juren Xie and take good care of him, feed some soft food and medicinal soup, and take good care of his health as soon as possible."
This guy is too weak in physique. Even if he has not been hungry since the thief, he is still very troubled and his body is quite weak.
"Xie Zhiyuan, I am very grateful to the Qianhu Lord!"
Xie Zhiyuan stood up with the help of two soldiers and did not forget to bow and salute.
Luo Chong waved his hand and asked them to go down, and he also left the yamen with swaying leisurely.
Xie Zhiyuan is quite flexible in his mind and meets Luo Chong's requirements. He has to have all kinds of people under his command, and different people do different things.
There will definitely be more and more things in the future. To put it bluntly, Luo Chong is just to be lazy and has a good subordinate who can get rid of more tedious things. No matter how you enjoy life, it will not change the essence of a lazy person.
The two-year agreement to work was purely a fool. After two years, he would not want to leave. Luo Chong was very good at fooling around when he was on Earth. As for talent, he would get it first.
As for the information on the thief that Xie Zhiyuan has, don’t worry, so let him have a good rest first. This group of thieves is said to be a brilliant person, but can they really rebel against this person?
Just a little thief who plays house.
More than 3,000 refugees were squeezed into the town, and the air became much turbid.
Luo Chong walked alone on the street. Wherever he passed, the townsmen were all 'Thousand Houses' greetings. Many refugees knelt in the street, shouting in their mouths, "Master Qingtian," which saved our whole family from starving to death...
There were more than 3,000 people, and there were definitely not so many empty houses in the town to accommodate them. They could only set up tents in the open space and squares. A family of young and old crowded in rag tents no more than two square meters.
Children cry and panic. On the contrary, some dogs raised by the townspeople can lie down or lie down calmly.
When I arrived at the north gate, I saw Luo Xiuer giving condolences and porridge with some women such as the mayor's wife. I knew that wearing a veil can not only cover up dust, prevent being infected by bacteria, but also prevent the strange eyes of some lustful sticks among refugees.
Refugees are pitiful, but they don’t mean they are all good people.
Luo Chong looked at him from afar, not planning to go over, because the eyes of the women looking at him were not much better than the color stick, and they were all seducing without any concealment.
It’s not that they are self-indulgent. If they can seduce the adults of Qianhu, their husbands will not say much. This is the magic of power.
For the sake of making more money, those with power can do whatever they want and without any scruples; for those who really care about chastity, they are the women at the bottom of the people.
However, everything must be moderate. It is really stupid to destroy your life for the sake of so-called chastity. Only in modern people's view would Luo Chong advocate that the widows in the town should be better able to rebuild their marriages. In this way, the whole town can be revitalized, rather than resentful women everywhere.
On the other side, Luo Xiu'er felt something and looked here. Her eyesight was far from being comparable to Luo Chong, so she could only vaguely see that figure.
She knew that Luo Chong was unwilling to disturb him, so she did not wave to say hello to Luo Chong, lowered her head and continued to busy serving porridge.
Women's porridge has a special effect of stabilizing people's hearts because male refugees are embarrassed to be too rude in front of them, which is worthy of advocacy, although there is a certain degree of hypocrisy.
Luo Chong went up to the north wall again to inspect the sergeants' alert status.
It is said that it is a city wall. The town is much smaller than the county town. The wall is only two meters tall, which is more than five meters high. Just a ladder is built and you can get up. The outermost layer is only a thin layer of blue bricks, and the inside is full of adobe bricks. A few large stones thrown by the trencher can cause serious damage.
The recruits stood on top in rows, with three shifts on their turn. At present, the rest time is still enough.
"Master Qianhu!"
Seeing Luo rushing up, the soldiers stood straight and saluted collectively.
"After a moment."
In this world, the command to slacken the order is the characteristic of the Luo family army. Their discipline does not require Luo Chong to worry about. The grassroots officers brought out by himself are all very strict, and Luo Chong feels a little perverted.
The soldiers recruited from refugees these days are still recuperating. The people on the city walls are all native Guangling people, namely the real personal soldiers under Luo Chong.
When they stood guard, they were also breathing quietly. Cultivating internal strength was not only diligent, but also relieved fatigue and maintained enough energy. The price was that they were all super buckets of special horses, bottomless pits, and gold-swalking beasts! r1148
