Astral Apostle - Chapter 240

[Two Hundred and Thirty Rules and Shakes]

Huyang, Yueshan Lake, Longwang Village.

It has been some time since the victory of the army, and all the trivialities have been properly arranged. Now that the Huyang family is the dominant one, it is finally time for the official seat.

But I saw warships scattered all over the lake, lined up in arrays, facing the direction of the stockade, and big flags were fluttering and dancing with the wind.

winter winter –

Drums rang out to gather the crowd, and the sound was like thunder, and soon a sea of people gathered by the beach, surrounding a high wooden platform on the shore.

On the high platform, there are incense burners, candles, and dozens of bowls of wine.

When the commotion calmed down, Zhou Jing and a group of leaders stepped up the steps, went to the high platform, and stood in front of Xiang Tan.

Zhou Jing looked around, taking in all the faces, and then using all his inner strength, he spoke loudly, and the sound came out like a trumpet:

“I am waiting for Juyi Huyang, and I don’t want to rot with the grass and trees, just to make a career. Today, my brothers and I swear to the Tianmeng that from now on, we should work together, share weal and woe, and support each other in life and death… …This world is drowsy, full of corrupt officials, landlords and gentry, I will act for the heavens, and the heaven and earth will learn from it!”

“I am willing to lead the horse and whip for the owner of the village!”

Everyone responded with a bang, each picked up incense sticks, put a bow before their foreheads, then burned yellow paper, made blood as an alliance, drank a lot of strong wine, threw their bowls and shouted.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jing began to read aloud the seats and positions of the people, and discussed the merits and deeds.

Guo Haishen is a well-deserved second leader, the third leader Duan Yunfeng, the fourth leader Du Ying, the fifth leader Hong Dingxian, the sixth leader Fang Zhen and so on.

Counting down one set, there are now 96 leaders in the stockade, most of whom were later employed, and some of them are quite useful.

After arranging the seats, Zhou Jing’s eyes were sharp as he looked around the crowd and said solemnly:

“All the brothers know about my deeds. I used to travel between towns and counties, seeking out evildoers, and doing justice for the heavens. Now I have a great foundation, occupying Huyang, and serving as a shelter for the township.

After today, there will be a court for redress of grievances, and the poor people in the realm of Huyang can come forward if they have grievances. Revenge, revenge!

At the same time, a martial arts hall was set up to teach martial arts to the people every day. No matter the poor or the lowly, as long as they wanted to learn martial arts as the foundation of their lives, they would not refuse.

”

“The Zhaizhu is arrogant!”

The voice fell, and many Erlangshan shouted.

Zhou Jing looked at the excited crowd and nodded secretly.

Now it is necessary to accumulate grain and build high walls, and it is not time to rise up, so he did not shout the slogan of subverting the imperial court, nor did he immediately set up new laws independent of the imperial court.

It’s just beating the drums in such a way as to avenge the people’s grievances, in order to have a lasting impact on the people.

‘It doesn’t directly touch the bottom line of the imperial court, it is still the category of bandits, they will calculate the cost of suppressing bandits, and the local officers and soldiers have been maimed by me, not a threat, I can develop in Huyang for some years…’

Zhou Jing thought to himself.

The ceremony was completed quickly. Under the witness of many minions, the group officially finished the seat and set the rules, and then they held a banquet in the stockade for three days in a row, drinking and resting.

…

The news spread everywhere, not only in the realm of Huyang, but also in all parts of Longwangzhai’s rules of avenging the people’s grievances and spreading martial arts to the people, which caused a lot of discussion.

Some people praised this as a kind deed for the people and for the heaven, and some people scolded it as an evil deed of self-doing and lawlessness.

Many people in the Huyang realm were rejoicing, and the lords and dignitaries here were all in a daze, shouting for sins, and being frightened and frightened.

This Chen Feng has picked up his old business again!

Just go and be your king of the mountain, can’t you!

We are not in your way, we can give you money and food, why do you have to live with us?

!

According to this bullshit rule, is it not that any beggar whose life is like a waste will seek justice, and someone will come to take their life?

What kind of reasoning is this!

Huyang can’t wait any longer!

For a time, panic filled the landlords and gentry, and they were all so frightened that they sold their properties to other sellers, sought another way out, and fled to other realms.

In the past, when Chen Feng’s gang committed crimes, they at most went out to avoid the limelight, but now Chen Feng is going to stay in Huyang for a long time. In their eyes, this land has become a dragon pool and a tiger’s den, and they have no plans to come back.

They didn’t expect the government to suppress the bandits at all. The local officers and soldiers in Huyang were crippled, and Chen Feng could not be cured at all.

On the other side, the prefectures in Huyang were equally angry, but there was nothing they could do about Chen Feng.

The imperial court did not send a large army to suppress bandits, and the officials of the states were incompetent and furious.

And some well-connected officials in Huyang are secretly operating, trying to get transferred to other regions to be officials.

With such a god of plague on the side, staying here is a life-threatening situation!

…

The capital, the imperial palace, and the Purple Palace.

The emperor sits on the dragon chair, and the ministers meet in the following court.

“…Then Chen Feng’s rebellion in Huyang has become more and more rampant. Now there are tens of thousands of people, and one family is the only one. It is difficult for the court to suppress the bandits.

A minister opened his mouth to play.

The emperor’s face was sinking like water, and he said slowly: “Last year, I traveled to Ningtian, where the prince was in charge of the country. The officials in Huyang had already reported the incident of bandits. Planting level?”

Because he was assassinated by Duan Yunfeng in Ningtian Mansion last year, the emperor has no plans to travel this year and has been staying in the capital.

Prince Wang Jing heard the words, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to confess the crime: “My son knows it’s wrong.”

The privy envoy Pang Hong was outstanding and said: “At that time, Prime Minister Qin offered a plan to drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf, recruiting An Huyang pirate to deal with Chen Feng, but now it seems to be useless. Is there any better way now?”

Qin Song didn’t change his face, and said with a bow: “Reporting to the sage, the Huyang bandits who recruited Anlai are so unhelpful, it is true that the old minister did not notice.”

The emperor shook his head, without blaming, and asked:

“This Chen Feng has no court in his eyes, it’s really hateful, I don’t know what plan the Aiqings have to exterminate this person?”

Pang Hong immediately opened his mouth and said solemnly: “This Chen Feng is good at opening a court, tying people’s hearts, and has a lot of plots of rebellion. According to the minister’s opinion, he should send a large army to destroy it!”

“Treachery?” The emperor frowned.

Although he didn’t want to spend the money on military expenses, if he was a rebel who rebelled, he would have to deal with it even with all his blood.

After all, bandits and rebels are two concepts, and the imperial court could not sit back and watch the latter act recklessly.

At this time, a minister came out and said:

“Pang Shu’s secret statement is exaggerated. Although Chen Feng is arrogant, arrogant, lawless, and committed riots, he did not rise up, nor did he claim to rebel. He was just a group of bandits. Make a big deal.”

Seeing this, Qin Song immediately said: “Your Majesty, according to the opinion of the old minister, dispatching a large army is a waste of money and half the effort. As long as this Chen Feng does not intensify his attack on the prefecture, it is better to wait for Tianwangzhai to pacify the bandits in Yanbei and Taidong. , and then send them to deal with Chen Feng, no matter how bad it is, they will lose both, and it will not be too late for the imperial court to send troops.”

The emperor heard the words, pondered for a while, and nodded:

“Qin Aiqing’s words are not unreasonable, so he will do as he is.”

As long as he is not a rebel, his principle is to spend as little as possible.

Moreover, the place in Huyang has always been noisy with water bandits, but now there is a new leader, and it seems that there is no difference.

Seeing that the abacus had failed again, Pang Hong gritted his teeth secretly and sulked.

After a few words, everyone quickly dealt with this issue and talked about other things.

At this time, a rumor-clearing official said:

“This minister wants to impeach the real Sitianjian Shenxiao Fengling! This man used the method of alchemy to deceive Sheng Ting. Although he was on duty in Sitianjian, he was idle all day. Demons with bad intentions, look to the sage to see clearly!”

The voice fell, and many courtiers present showed disgust, only to feel that their ears were full of cocoons.

Since the emperor brought back the real Yufeng, these rumor-clearing officials have been eyeing him, chasing and scolding him for more than half a year, impeaching him every day.

This seems to have become a trend. If you don’t scold Lingfengzi’s slanderous words to confuse the public, you can’t show that they are pure flow.

“Aiqing’s words are not good. The real alchemy method is genuine and beneficial to the body. I often take it, and my spirit is much brighter than before…”

The emperor was also tired of hearing it, but he couldn’t have a seizure.

Although the real Yufeng is always targeted, the emperor has obviously felt that his body has become better after taking the other party’s medicinal pills in the past few months. Concubine, re-experienced the joy of fish and water.

This made him more and more fond of Yufeng Zhenren… He gained real benefits, and he would not be shaken by the impeachment of others.

…

Yanbei, a plain somewhere.

The Tianwangzhai army is stationed here, and the tents are endless, and there is almost no end in sight.

Huyang was very lively, and Yanbei Taidong was also fighting. Since being recruited, Lu Longchuan and other leaders have led the army to expedition to suppress bandits and deal with local bandits.

It was noon at this time, and the camp was buried in pots to make rice. Lu Longchuan and other leaders sat by the camp, chatting while eating, and unknowingly talked about the situation on the Huyang side.

“I didn’t expect that Chen Feng could solve the Three Flood Dragons so easily and dominate Huyang. He is the leader of the green forest in the south.”

“Yeah, it’s not easy to compare his Dragon King Village with my Tianwang Village on the road now.”

The leaders sighed.

It took them many years to lay the foundation of Tianwangzhai, but it took only one year for Chen Feng to become a giant in the green forest, almost on an equal footing with them.

Every time they think of the rapid rise of the other party, everyone has a feeling of being slapped on the beach by the back waves, and secretly sighs that they are getting old.

A leader sighed: “Alas, after we recruited security, we have received mixed reputations in the green forest, and we are no longer the leader of the green forest. I am afraid that the position of the overlord of the green forest will fall on the Dragon King Village in the future.”

Hearing this, Lu Longchuan comforted:

“Brothers, don’t be discouraged, we are on the right track, we will serve the country in the future, and the reputation of Lulin is useless to us. We are no longer characters of this level. As long as the bandits in Yanbei and Taidong are pacified, everyone will be able to Rewards for meritorious deeds.”

Everyone had different expressions and nodded.

Xiang Tianjie hesitated, but in the end he didn’t speak.

This transaction of Zhao’an is to become the knife in the hands of the imperial court, working hard in exchange for official fame and fortune.

The imperial court recruited them to pacify the bandits in the world. Even if Yanbei and Taidong were settled, they might even be sent to conquer Huyang.

Thinking of Chen Feng’s appalling deeds, Xiang Tianjie couldn’t help but worry.

To fight against such a ruthless character, even if you win, how much will you pay, how many brothers will be killed and injured?

For a time, Xiang Tianjie gradually felt shaken by the decision of the village owner to be recruited.
