Chapter 4 Baolong Diagram

In the Dongshengzhou Houya, a small table was placed under a big tree in the yard, with wine and food on it.

The sun is very bright, Du Zhongxiao recruited several major subordinates in the state to have a banquet and drink together.

Everyone sat down, and Du Zhongxiao said, "Today, Xiaonian, everyone will drink a glass of wine together. As officials in the border areas, and the family members are not here, we can only enjoy ourselves. After the New Year, everything will stabilize and we will be much more calm. There is a railway, so our family can visit here."

Several people said yes together.

Du Zhongxiao raised his glass: "There is no good wine and good food, so all the generals will give it. I ordered to make dumplings and eat a few of them to take advantage of it."

After drinking wine, Shi Quanbin picked up a dumpling and nodded repeatedly. He liked to eat dumplings the most, especially in winter, which was almost every day as long as he had the conditions. The food consisted of vegetables and meat, and the skin on the outside was troublesome, but it was very convenient to eat.

At this time, dumplings were actually just in prototypes, far less popular than wontons. After Du Zhongxiao improved, the Volcano Army was spread here because of its convenience. Tanglong Town used to be a trading center, which played a significant role in the promotion of dumplings in nearby states.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Du Zhongxiao said to Li Fugui: "Since the strict investigation and plundering of slaves and servants, many people committed crimes, and many of them were killed or sent to the public, and most of them were leaders. Now, because the master committed crimes, many of the leaders lost male men in their families and were seized by private slaves. This is not a solution. After the New Year, you can build some ranches in various places in the name of the General Secretary and recruit people who are not slaves in the foreigners."

Lee Fugui said yes, saying: "In addition, people who commit minor cases can also be placed inside."

Du Zhongxiao said: "The prisoner should not work with the good man. It is better to build a separate prison camp. The ranch will be based on the way we were building the field when we were on Jingxi Road. We must set up herds and do not be nomadic. We will discuss how to do it."

Li Fugui said: "It is not easy to settle the herdsmanship. When winter comes, not only is the grass left, but the herdsmen have no food either."

Du Zhongxiao smiled and said, "The pastures are all under the management department. How can there be no grass or food? The pastures are selected to plant grasses such as alfalfa, and they can be dried into hay and fed in winter. You can also grow some essence, but how can it be the same as herders? As for the food is easier to handle, I don't know how much food is transported in the Central Plains, so there will be no shortage of food. If the livestock is well fed, not only horses, but cattle and sheep can be sold to the Central Plains."

Turning nomadic to fixed herds is something Du Zhongxiao has always wanted to do. This area is suitable for farming and herds, and only fixed herds can have both. Without this incident, it may have to be done with some effort, and it is much easier now.

Hearing the discussion on this matter, Shi Quanbin suddenly said, "By the way, the envoy who promulgated the imperial edict from a few days ago is familiar with me. He heard that the recent case of trafficking in the foreign ministries was heavily used, and many people were beheaded and trampled. This matter was spread to other state troops, and some officials reported to the court. The court had a lot of remarks about this matter, believing that the local government had used heavy laws to arouse the foreign people's rebellion and cause great disaster."

Du Zhongxiao said: "Normal, how can I hide such a thing? I didn't want to hide it from others at all. If this case continues, it is certain that there are foreigners who are in chaos. It is just to send troops to quell the rebellion. I am afraid of chaos and appeasement of foreigners. How can I be worthy of the Han people who died unjustly? The body of five hundred and eight trafficked Han women are not cold and they don't make decisions for them. Why is the king coming north for?"

Shi Quanbin said: "What do officials in the capital thousands of miles away know? Be careful and don't be scattered behind their backs."

Du Zhongxiao nodded: "I understand. I should be honest in my work, just seek peace of mind. If others say anything, let them say they can go."

After killing Yelu Zongzhen, Shi Quanbin regarded Du Zhongxiao as a god and never said the word "no". With this military merit, Shi Quanbin's life has been fulfilled. He is just waiting for a few years to truly build a festival and return to the palace to gain real power.

After drinking, Du Zhongxiao returned to his residence. He remembered the case he had been chasing for more than a month and was not saved by anyone, so he felt very frustrated.

If you don’t know the cause and effect, just by Du Zhongxiao’s method of these days, it can be said to be cruel. Many foreigners were killed and exiled even more. Because of this, many foreign descent could not be maintained and merged in large quantities. For the first occupied areas, this is a taboo, and it is inevitable that officials in the court would disagree. At first, Du Zhongxiao also thought so. If it weren’t for the fact that there was no way, how could this be?

What I saw and heard in that month was like a nightmare, making Du Zhongxiao unable to let go of it for a long time.

On the third day, Du Zhongxiao was directing his subordinates to decorate the house in the yamen, preparing to welcome the New Year. A soldier came in to report: "The court and the new government appointed the Hequ Road Transport Envoy, who had passed Tanglong Town and was coming to Dongshengzhou. According to the post, it was time to arrive today!"

Du Zhongxiao said: "I understand. I'll send Liu Zhizhou to the city to welcome him later."

Liu Ji also served as the governor of Dongsheng Prefecture, and most of the officers were officers in the army. The entire Hequ Road is now under military control, and with Li Fugui there, he sent a transshipment envoy, which was a bit inappropriate. Thinking of what Shi Quanbin said the day before yesterday, Du Zhongxiao understood that the court was a little dissatisfied with what he did after he arrived here. Sending a transshipment envoy was both a surveillance and a tactful reminder.

A few hours later, Liu Ji welcomed the new transshipment envoy to the city and came to see Du Zhongxiao.

The ceremony was like a ritual, and the official said: "Bao Zheng, a scholar in Longtu Pavilion, is the new Hequ Road Transport Author, and has seen the strategy."

Du Zhongxiao was stunned for a moment before saying, "The new Cao Xian turned out to be Bao Longtu, lucky to meet!"

Bao Zheng was promoted from Tianzhang Pavilion to Longtu Pavilion Bachelor's degree from the Tianzhang Pavilion, and was transferred from Zhijianyuan to Hebei Road Transportation Commissioner, and now he was transferred to Hequ Road. In terms of job terms, Bao Zheng's scholar was higher than Du Zhongxiao, and in terms of official terms, Du Zhongxiao's counselor's counselor's counselor was much higher than Bao Zheng's military officer. The officials and positions in the Song Dynasty were two systems, and the positions of the positions were higher than those of those who were not in charge. In terms of the order of the scholarship, the status of the counselor was equivalent to the order of the order, and the above status was complicated.

The most important thing for being an official in other places is to send an appointment. Du Zhongxiao's military and political commander was in charge of the military and political commander, and was in the transfer envoy. Therefore, when Bao Zheng took office, Liu Ji went out of the city to welcome him, and he came to pay homage to Du Zhongxiao.

After entering the living room, the guest and host took a seat, and after tea, Du Zhongxiao said, "Longtu has worked hard all the way."

Bao Zheng nodded, was silent for a while before saying, "I met Jinglei for the first time, and I don't know much. If I have any offense, please forgive me."

Du Zhongxiao said: "Longtu has something to say, but it's okay to say it. It's better to say it than keep it in your heart."

Bao Zheng bowed and said, "When I came here to pass by Bingzhou this time, I had a deep conversation with Han Jingluo. He suggested that when I arrived here, I would explain my words clearly with the Jingluo so as not to cause misunderstandings. Han Jingluo thought that Jingluo was a young Jinshi and had been a handsome man for ten years. He looked smooth, but in fact he was steady. He was not the kind of young and erratic person. He could make it clear and do things better."

Bao Zheng and Han Qi were both Jinshi in the fifth year of Tiansheng. Although they passed the Jinshi, Bao Zheng only came out to be an official after ten years of filial piety at home, but they were promoted quickly, not much worse than the rest of the same year. In the same year, Han Qi said to him, of course, not polite words, so Bao Zheng mentioned it specifically.

Seeing Bao Zheng so serious, Du Zhongxiao knew that what he wanted to say was probably not good things, so listen quietly.

After drinking a sip of tea, Bao Zheng was silent for a while before saying, "Bao Zheng came here because he was entrusted by the court to appease the local area. In less than a month, the manager punished the Fanluo with heavy hands. I don't know how many people destroyed their families and how many people were punished. The local people were unstable and the court was worried. When they first got a new land, the manager had no words to say, but they could not help but have Fanluo's intentions to have a strange intention."

Du Zhongxiao nodded: "The court is right, and I think so too. But the court's laws cannot be used as decorations, what about Long Tu?"

"The Han people used Han laws, and the foreigners used the foreign laws to govern them separately. This has always been the case in the border areas. It is somewhat inappropriate to use Han laws."

Du Zhongxiao said: "The Han people use Han methods, and that's what it is now."

Bao Zheng said: "Yes, but how could there be so many Han people who were punished? Are there so many Han people in the Hequ land?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "There are probably not many places in Hequ, but they can plunder and sell them from other places, right? Longtu, I don't care how you want to appease the place, but if you commit a case, you can't even do the Ming Zhengdian punishment. What's the difference when the Wang Shi came?"

Bao Zheng did not expect Du Zhongxiao to have such an attitude. He was silent for a moment and didn't know what to say. After a while, he said: "Is the case of a man who was talking about by a Han woman who was actually true?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "Is it still fake? Longtu thought I was fabricating this case and saying that the foreigner established his authority?"

Bao Zheng nodded: "When I left Beijing, many officials thought so-called-"

Du Zhongxiao shook his head slightly: "Hequ is a place where soldiers govern, and the case trial may be a bit rough, and the documents are not too rigorous, which is not outrageous. Now that the case files are all there, Longtu may wish to check it again. By the way, I have properly buried the bodies of those women along the way. If the court has doubts, Longtu can open the coffin and test it again. Although it is rude to disturb the dead, if it is to give them justice, I don't think they will care."

Bao Zheng opened his eyes and looked at Du Zhongxiao. After a while, he said, "There is really a big case of 508 people?"

Du Zhongxiao nodded: "Of course it's true! In Long Tu's eyes, do you think I'm making a big case and killing people to establish authority? Although Du is not talented, no matter whether he establishes authority or appeases, he cannot use this method! One is one, two is two. Of course, it is because of the big case that so many people have been punished! As long as I am here, even if the killings make people roll and blood flow, I will definitely give justice to those trafficked people!"
