Chapter 7 Gossip

Updated: 2010-04-04

"Since you have become an emperor and your behavior affects the world, you will not be able to do things that please."

Chen De's tone sank and said, "It's been a while since the Han Cicada returned to Jinling to contact the former subordinates of the Shenwei, and the Jinling merchants, let them come to Jiujiang to see me once, so that they can calm their hearts."

When Jinling fell, Chen De distributed the industrial coefficient of the Shenwei Army to the merchants who were originally operating. In addition to collecting a small amount of silver and materials, they all turned into millions of credit cards. These merchants were good at dancing. After the Song army occupied Jiangnan, they soon had a relationship with the newly appointed officials, and most of them were able to continue to operate their original industries.

After Chen De took over Qiang warriors in Dijinze to form the Baiyu Army, he knew the actions of the various tribes of the Dangxiang tribes well. He transferred Gouluan, who performed well in Xiazhou, back to Jiangnan, and contacted southern merchants who had originally had a relationship with the Shenwei Army as a great merchant. The ultimate goal was to compile a commercial network for Hexi in Jiangnan provinces to facilitate the sale of goods and collect materials. After all, Hexi currently only occupied the key stock and had not yet formed a large and powerful domestic demand market. After experiencing the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, Jiangnan was already the eastern part of the Eurasian continent, and it was also the place with the most abundant resources and the most abundant people in the world.

Ten days later, the capital of the Xiaowu Army, Yuhou, Linzhong, learned in extreme depression that he would lead a thousand imperial guards to protect him, and also monitored the Anxi Jiedushi Chen De to Jiangnan to present a golden plaque to Chen of Yimen. "Is it because Gao De is the bad guy?" Linzhong looked at the gentle and lovely wife Wang, and he felt guilty for her, and he was sent to the northwest for nearly two years. This timid Wang guarded his rituals in Bianliang. He made some needles at home with his maid every day.

With the online skills, the maids were asked to sell some small money to supplement the household expenses. In addition, she also served the old parents in the forest with all their hearts. During this period, Gao De invited friends to come to the door to invade, but she scolded them and retreated. Fortunately, Wang was the only beloved daughter of Wang Fengguo, the former instructor of the imperial guards. The imperial guards also had his father's old robbers. Although Gao De was a playboy who was rampant in Bianliang, he also did not use force against her.

"This time I went to Jiangnan to do business, my wife likes things like southern silk, satin, pearls, and fragrant medicine. I will bring it back to you for my husband." Lin Zhong raised his hands and allowed Wang, who was kneeling behind him to untied the hard leather belt for him, and asked in a deliberate and gentle tone. The only benefit of being on the border is that he could make a lot of extra money. Whether it was breaking the robbery of the vassals or the rewards of Shangguan on weekdays, he had accumulated everything in the forest. He didn't dare to ask someone to take it back, and just wrapped it around his waist. After returning to Bianliang with Dong Zunhui, he shook off the gold, silver and jade pieces wrapped around his waist, Wang, who had never seen many treasures, was stunned. Lin Zhong was holding her hands full of needle-eyed eyes, feeling very sad.

After a long time, there was silent behind her. "Madam?" Lin Zhong held her hands back, held her wife's waist and rubbed her gently. Wang could no longer laugh, climbed on his broad tiger's back, and started to cry. She had been so bitter during this period. When the forest left, it seemed as if the sky had fallen. Although the two old men in the mansion did not say anything, they thought that she had just brought this disaster before she showed up. She could only swallow her anger and force herself to serve her in-laws. Gaode from the mansion looked for opportunities to entangle her many times. In the critical moment, she almost forced her to die and escaped from the wolf kiss. After the forest came back, the gentle Wang did not mention any of these things. Unexpectedly, the couple had been together for less than two months, and Lin Zhong was going to leave Beijing again.

Two days later, Zhang Zhongyao found out from the subordinates of the Ministry of War that the one who was escorting Chen De was the Yuhou, the capital of the King of Wu. Then he sent several soldiers from Chengying Camp who had been hiding in Bianliang to tell the details of the forest clearly.

"I didn't expect that in this forest, General Song, who threw a spear with one hand, broke the flag of the Lord's general in Liangzhou, sent him to accompany him. Didn't he intentionally cause trouble for the Lord?" Director Zhu, the tenth husband of Chengying Camp, said indignantly.

The war has passed, and Chen De doesn't care much about the breaking of the flag. Instead, he is quite interested in the grudge between Lin Zhong and Gao De. "I didn't expect that Lin Chong's story in 'Water Margin' has such a similar original version in this world. Since I asked me to meet it, I couldn't take care of it." Thinking of this, Chen De said in a deep voice: "This forest is also a good man. I have never seen such a good man be humiliated in my life. Could Master Zhang think of some way? Teach Gao De a lesson and tell him that he can't beat the lady in the forest again in the future?"

Zhang Zhongyao was stunned. Unexpectedly, what Chen De took out was a decision to meddle in other people's business. He thought that the lord was in Bianliang and had nothing to do, but he valued the skill of guns and sticks in the forest and wanted to take this opportunity to take it for himself. He couldn't think about it carefully and smiled: "This noble deed relies on his power and is domineering in Bianliang and offends many people. Even if we teach him a lesson, he doesn't know which family did it. Should he wake him up and not provoke the little lady of the Lin family?"

Chen De thought about it and frowned: "Looking up this matter will easily make people find out about me, so it's better to act secretly."

Zhang Zhongyao smiled and said, "This is easy." The people of Bianliang are afraid of playboys like Gaode, and they all have to live in the family. Who dares to offend these powerful children without any trouble? But the foundation of Zhang Zhongyao and Chengying Camp is beyond the reach of the Song Dynasty. Not to mention that they were just Gao Qiong's adopted son, they were a real important minister of the court, or even the officials of the current dynasty. Regardless of success or failure, he followed the order without hesitation. In the late Tang and Five Dynasties, it was common for the prime minister to be assassinated by the death soldiers in the Jiedu period.

A few days later, Zhang Zhongyao arranged for the Chengying Camp to understand Gaode's daily habits first. When Gaode and a few friends came out of the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, a soldier transferred from another place pretended to be a gangster, rushed forward, shouting loudly, "I have been owed to me for a few months, and finally found you." The soldier's face was full of flesh and fierce face, like a butcher, and immediately frightened Gaode's friends and did not dare to speak.

"Brother, have you recognized the wrong person?" Gao Deshang didn't know how to make a plan. Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the soldier rushed forward and punched his face. The punch was like an iron hammer, making Gao De's face bloom, tears, snot, blood, and saliva flowed out, his ears "buzzing" and roaring, and his eyes were filled with stars, and he was so painful that he bowed his waist.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, his friends were about to shout for help, but the beating man shouted loudly: "If you don't pay it back, you'd rather be beaten to death." Several strong thugs with big waists and round waists came out behind him. No matter how hard they were, they were fist-fighted, and beat the idle gangs around Gaode to cry. These soldiers from Chengying Camp who came from the township were originally born with a natural disgust towards the rich and riches in the capital. "Why should these bastards take over the best women and property? Grandpas are born and die, and in the end they will be a life of severance!" At this moment, they all tried their best to take action. Although it was not fatal, the idle gangs broke several bones. When the thugs left, the people who were almost beaten into mud and sank on the ground were looking at each other, they found that something was wrong and Gao Yanei was taken away.

Just as the scene was in chaos, Gao De, who was almost knocked out, was pushed and shoved into an alley and stuffed a shabby ox cart that had been prepared. A man covered in a face looked at him in disgust. The palm of his palm fan twisted his neck like an eagle catching a chicken, held his neck in front of him with one hand, and stuffed the mandala paste with a strong smell of medicine into Gao De's mouth, and closed his mouth up and down with both hands until Gao De unconsciously swallowed the ointment and fell asleep. The man let him go and put the towel down.

In the eastern suburbs of Bianliang City, there is a small pharmacy shop. Although the business is not good, the life of the pharmacy doctor is quite prosperous. The reason is that the doctor also mastered a unique skill to cleanse people. At this stage of civil society in the country, entering the palace has become a way to get a job. No matter who changes his surname or becomes an emperor, his father-in-law always has a taste of food. However, cleanse is a unique technique. For example, Chen De did it for Cao Zumeng in Jinling and was relatively rough, which ended up ruining his life. This time, Chen De asked Zhang Zhongyao to stop Gao De from harassing the wife in the forest, but he did not allow him to wake up Gao De. After thinking about it, Zhang Zhongyao still cleanses Gao De directly.

The Siyao Doctor saw a group of men lifting the sleepy man in on the bed and asked, "Why are you so scared that you fainted?" The grown man who carried the man in pulled out a snowflake-like waist knife and whispered, "This man owes debt to the palace to be a eunuch, earn money to pay it back." Several other men in tough and coarse clothes rushed in without waiting for the doctor to greet him, and then closed the door tightly, pressed their own sharp blades, and stared at the doctor with fierce eyes.

Si Yao's doctor observed his expression and did not tell the truth when he saw the man. Qiqi replied in a vain: "This idle man who voluntarily cleanses himself must first go to the Ministry of War to file a record, otherwise he will be cleansed and will not be able to do anything." His eyes turned, and he refused to do so, for fear of implicating himself.

The man holding the knife said angrily: "It's so long-winded, but is it not good to deceive grandpa's quick knife?" He shook the snowflake iron knife in his hand again, and several big men next to him surrounded him, as if a group of vultures surrounded the doctor like a chicken, staring at him with vicious eyes.

"Bang--" The doctor was so scared that his knees softened and knelt on the ground. The leading man glanced at him with contempt, and casually walked behind him with a heavy bag and threw it in front of the doctor, and said in a deep voice: "This is a hundred coins, the reward for the old man's business." The doctor was also a greedy person. When he saw the copper coins, his eyes lit up. He thought that he had to do this job if he didn't do it. After taking the money, he could escape to another state. So he raised his head and agreed sadly: "As long as the villain."

Note 1: Since the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, the separatist situation of the feudal states formed. By the time of Emperor Xianzong, Prime Minister Wu Yuanheng (Wu Zetian's great nephew) and Censor Pei Du were both representatives of the main force of removing the feudal states and pacifying the separatist forces. In the early morning of the third day of the sixth month of the tenth year of Yuanhe (815), the sky was not yet bright, and Wu Yuanheng went out to court. Just as he walked out of the east gate of Jing'anfang, a famous assassin hid in the dark and shot Wu Yuanheng with an arrow. Wu Yuanheng's followers scattered. The assassin stepped forward and led Wu Yuanheng's horse for more than ten steps, calmly killed him and chopped off his head. Then, the assassin entered Tonghuafang and assassinated Pei Du. Pei Du fell into the ditch. The assassin thought Pei Du was dead, so he stopped chasing and escaped calmly. Pei Du was thus spared.

Note 2: There was a regulation in the Song Dynasty: Anyone who voluntarily cleanses himself must first report to the Ministry of War. This is not a conscription, but the selection of those who require purging himself seems to be more strict than ordinary conscription. Because eunuchs are for use by the court, they must choose those with good looks and even good looks. After choosing, they will choose an auspicious day for surgery.
