While chatting, Aunt San carried a large kettle and poured hot water into the large wooden basin. The kettle was filled with water for more than ten pounds, but it was as light as nothing in her hands. Although she looked kind and walked slowly, the old woman was also a tigress in the Cui family village back then. She had a pair of cold hunting forks in her hand, and her martial arts were definitely not inferior to her husband.

Cui Ying'er's mother died early, and it was Aunt San who raised her. She and the couple felt that they were no less than their biological parents. Even though they knew she didn't like listening, the couple dared to chat in front of her.

When Uncle San heard his wife mentioning his youthful past, he hurriedly stumbled his neck aside and stopped talking.

Cui Ying'er sighed and didn't say anything. She knew that the third uncle and the third aunt had a kindness, but could she and Yang Hu still make peace? At first, she refused to say that Yang Hu was sorry for his brotherly loyalty, but because she lost herself first, she felt that it was a disadvantage to him.

Later, Yang Hu was so obsessed with the desire to rebel, and his thoughts of rebellion became increasingly fierce. However, under the strict orders of Mr. Cui, all the people in the Cui family's old house had retreated. The Hongniang was alone in the old boudoir, and sometimes went down the mountain to walk alone, as if he was not married. After breaking contact with him, he became even more lazy to pay attention to his affairs.

Unexpectedly, Bazhou commanded Zhou De'an to suppress bandits under the imperial edict. Since Yang Hu's main force of the village had already fled far away, there were not many bandits to suppress. In order to make achievements, he began to implicate the innocent and used a plan to lure surrender to break the Cui family's village and kill many women and children. The Cui family's village, which was unprepared, was caught off guard, and even the boss Cui was shot with a sharp arrow and killed his life.

How can such a bloody hatred be abducted? How can the court not hate the treason? The old house of Cui family unanimously decided to join the Yang Hu army, revolt, and avenge the thousands of lives that died in vain in the Cui family. At this point, Cui Ying'er could not stop it, so she had to tell her second uncle about Yang Hu's ugly behavior.

But the one who is full of hatred in the Cui family is the government, the one Zhou De'an who is carrying thousands of lives in the mountain village. As for Yang Hu, he killed the people from the Yang family. After all, Cui Laowu was just used by Yang Hu to lure the tiger away from the mountain to facilitate his silence, but he happened to meet the leader of Maitreya and sent his life to him.

If you really want to calculate, how could this revenge be compared to the great revenge of the destruction of the village, the eldest brother was killed, and more than a thousand brothers, women and children abandoned their bodies in the mountains? The third brother was injured and lame in his early years, so he had long ignored the affairs of the village. The fifth brother died again, so the second uncle and the fourth uncle secretly discussed it. He decided to secretly announce the news and use Yang Hu's momentum to rebel to achieve his own wish to take revenge. Yang Hu wants the world, and they want Zhou De'an's head, which is to use each other and take each other's needs?

Cui Ying'er was helpless, and her elders and brothers were determined to avenge her father. As a daughter, could she stay out of her own private matters? Yang Hu was powerful. The Cui family's old village, which was severely damaged, no longer had the same deterrence power as before in front of Yang Hu. She was really worried that she would send the people from the Cui family's old village to Yang Hu, who seemed to be the tiger king, but in fact, she was jackal.

But to try to protect them, she can only be their leader and firmly control this power. As long as Cui Ying'er is willing to stay in the village, she is the leader of this team for granted, and no one can take her place. Because of this friendship and this ties, she can only come to Qingzhou with her subordinates who are eager to take revenge.

But another ties...

She gently stroked the child's smooth cheeks and sighed quietly.

After the water was put down, Cui Ying'er woke up from her insanity and tried to see if the water temperature was appropriate. She took out the prepared medicine and poured it into a basin to melt it. Then she untied the little guy's clothes and soaked him gently in the warm water.

Uncle San smashed his mouth and said, "When you were a child, your father prescribed this prescription. Ask your aunt to soak it in Ziwu every day, so that you can practice kung fu well. Well, the roots and bones of this child are better than you, but they are a little congenital deficient and have some problems in the fetus. It will be better after taking the medicine you caught. Teach this child well and will be better than you in the future."

Cui Ying'er was happy. She smiled slightly and pursed her lips without making a sound. The child felt comfortable lying in the warm water. His head was resting in Cui Ying'er's hands, lying in the water with his back. He kicked and kicked a few times from time to time, and looked at people with bright eyes, as if he was smiling.

The water temperature gradually cooled down. Cui Ying'er gently carried the child out, placed it on the bedding that had been laid out in the morning, wiped the water droplets on his body with a towel, and coaxed him softly: "Don't cry, I'll dry your body and carry you to the door to bask in the sun, okay?"

At this time, the footsteps in the yard were heard, and a man from Baotou in green cloth flashed in quickly and shouted: "Third Master!"

Uncle San flashed out and asked, "What's the matter?"

The man said anxiously: "Someone came back with the lady's car just now and was chatting with people in the village to inquire about how long our family has been moving and what kind of career it is. I see that their behavior is very similar to the eagle claw grandson."

Uncle San tightened his face and said anxiously: "Where is the person?"

"They were very alert. We just paid attention to them, and they left on the pretext of noticing and headed for Qingzhou City."

Uncle San pondered for a moment and waved his hand, "Go, look at the entrance of the village." After saying that, he flashed into the house.

Cui Ying'er had already wrapped her child and handed it to Aunt San, and said, "I heard that the person who followed me may not know my identity, but I don't need to go to the royal palace to ask for medicine in the future, and this identity will not be used anymore. You don't have to stay here to take risks. Let's go back to the mountain and leave immediately!"

"Brother, your prestige is at its peak. Now, not only are the thieves in Taihang alone, but the people of Qingzhou are also the ones who want to be the ones. Not only are there many hunters, tenants, and poor people going up the mountain to join. Recently, three local gentry have also devoted all their money to your subordinates. The people's will and the general trend is the ones."

Mu Yun praised Yang Hu, who was sitting on the tiger-skin chair. He had recently defected to the mountain and brought more than a dozen brothers. He was originally a hunter in Zhuyin County, Qingzhou. Because of his dignified appearance, extraordinary martial arts, shrewd and good-talking, he stood out soon and was highly valued by Yang Hu.

A hint of lust flashed across Yang Hu's face. However, thinking about the current situation, he shook his head and said, "It is true that the people in Qingzhou are willing to be, and it is not false that the general trend is going on in Taihang Mountain. However, it is not easy to make the people in the world want. We have border fortresses in the north, capital troops in the west, and the boundless sea in the east. It is fine to be king on Taihang Mountain. Once the rise rises, the imperial army gathers..."

He shook his head and sighed: "I have suffered setbacks over the past year. If I lose this foundation again, I will be defeated. I must be careful."

Yang Husuo frowned and said, "But I have never raised an army, and it is not a solution to just wait like this. So many people have been able to survive. Now, for the sake of rebellion, tens of thousands of troops have to eat and drink. Our land, money and food cannot last long, and so many soldiers and horses are gathered together. It is difficult to keep secrets. If this continues, the government will find abnormal movements. Oh, it is difficult."

Mu Yun smiled and said, "Brother. You can't go to the east, north, and west, so what about the south? The world of thousands of miles of rivers and flowers swooped down from the Taihang Mountains, one thousand miles apart, but you still want to ask for it? The three rich men who defected to you brought all their property to the mountain, and you also saw how rich they are in this barren land. There are many rich gentry from north to south of the Yangtze River, ten times, hundred times, and thousands of times richer than them. If you get there, the eldest brother wants to raise military expenses and recruit soldiers and horses, isn't it easy to get back to the back?"

Yang Hu shook his head and said, "Brother Mu, this is a bad word. All the soldiers of Taihang are raised. How many people are there? Only more than 10,000. Once the incident is launched, it is estimated that at most 30,000 people can be recruited from the county seats of Qingzhou. With 40,000 people, we can go deep into the Central Plains? Haha, can loaches enter the sea cause any waves?"

A trace of mystery flashed in Mu Yun's eyes and he whispered: "Brother, you are an open and honest hero. You are obedient and honest in your actions. Some things are not as clear as those of us poor hunters who have never seen the world."

He leaned into Yang Hu's ear and whispered. Yang Hu's eyes widened and he said in horror: "This... this is too poisonous. Is this strategy feasible?"

Mu Yun smiled slightly and said, "Brother, since ancient times, "A general has achieved success and ten thousand bones are undone", let alone being an emperor? Which founding emperor has not built the throne with white bones? If the elder brother uses this plan, a million troops can be obtained in an instant. At that time, the elder brother is a tiger going down the mountain and a dragon entering the sea. The Ming Dynasty may have changed its master. Brother, we are in a corner, and the land is poor and the people are rare. Apart from this method, do you have other tricks to compete with the court?"

Yang Hu's face changed a lot, and his flickering eyes finally stabilized, slowly catching a murderous intent. He nodded slowly and said, "This is the only way to do it now. Brother Mu, step up recruiting troops, save money and food, prepare for another month, and then..."

He stood up suddenly, raised his palm, waved his slanted in the air, with a murderous look on his face!

The wind was cold, standing on the top of the city and holding a cool air, watching Yangling's convoy gradually fading away. Liang Hong sighed and felt like he was stepping on cotton for a moment: "I... can our family... I... be the master of the family?"

Liang Hong looked around like a dream. All the officials in Bazhou stood behind him three steps away, respectfully, and couldn't help but feel a heroic feeling of dominating the world.

Lord Mu walked up and said respectfully: "Eunuch Liang, the Duke of the Kingdom has gone far away. The wind is very fast here. Let's go back. Uh... To celebrate your honor as the governor of Bazhou, the officials have prepared a feast at the 'Watching Yuxuan'. I invite you to the banquet tonight. I hope that Eunuch Liang will not refuse, and I must come here to enjoy the glory."

When Liang Hong heard that officials from all over the country were going to celebrate with a banquet, he immediately lowered his back habitually, with a flattering smile on his face. He was about to express his gratitude, but suddenly realized that he was now the guard of Bazhou, the largest official in Bazhou. The people in front of him had to act according to his expression. He stood up with his back with a habitual hunchback. He smiled reservedly and said slowly: "This... I have just taken office and are busy with official duties. There is no need to be a part of the matter of sending off, right?"

Lord Mu smiled and said, "It should be, it should be, the lower official, and I will ask you for advice on public affairs with Mr. Liang in the future. Everyone is not familiar with my father-in-law. If you meet and meet, you will be familiar with me. This is the place. Mr. Liang must give you this respect."

"Yes, yes, Eunuch Liang must enjoy the glory."

Liang Hong Ge smiled and said, "Well... it's hard to let go of your kindness. Well, this time, this guard will make an exception to go to the banquet. Let's not be the case, huh?"

"Yes, yes, yes. No examples are left, no examples are left."

"Yes," Liang Hong smiled with a will and said, "Then... let's go away first. This guard has to go back to the guard office to hand over some matters. Let's see you at night, see you at night, hahaha..."

The officials hurriedly smiled and bowed and dispersed. Liang Hong walked proudly to his sedan chair, got into the sedan chair, and a gong sounded a "bang" in front of him and headed straight for the eunuch's mansion.

Sitting in the sedan chair for a while, Liang Hong suddenly remembered Mo Yunxiang's conversation with him alone last night, and couldn't help but feel worried again. The greater the official, the greater the responsibility. Now he is a guard, and his prestige is majestic, but this responsibility... the responsibility for making money... Alas!

Liu Jin told him two things, one was to find a way to save Zhang Zhong and a group of Bazhou officials. It was the same whether these people should be killed. But they were from Liu Jin's faction. If they were rectified by Yang Ling, then the ones that were damaged would be Liu Jin's reputation and political status. If there was still a chance to rescue him, they would naturally spare no effort.

Unfortunately, Mo Yunxiang didn't expect Yang Ling to make a fuss and got rid of Zhang Zhong so quickly, which also helped Liang Hong a lot of help. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to excuse Zhang Zhong and rescue him. The second thing was that the mission that was originally handed over to Liang Zhong was now handed over to him, and he had to find a way to raise the 100,000 taels of silver.

Liang Hong pinched his chin and felt worried: "Zhang Zhong was killed just now, and his method of exploiting wealthy gentry will definitely not be used anymore. In my opinion, the reason why Lao Zhang was ruined was because he was too dark and he was too poor and offended too many people.

Local gentry and government officials always have a close relationship. It is possible that any line can reach the sky. Can you still gain a foothold if you offend them? There are so many connections between gentry and landlords, and filial piety is inevitable, but you have to let others live.

The tax increase...is possible, but it doesn't work now, so you have to wait for the gust of wind to pass. What should I do? Eunuch Liu commissioned my mission and assigned two things in total. Zhang Zhong is now hanging on the flagpole, so there is no need to save him. If the 100,000 taels of silver cannot be raised, Eunuch Liu will immediately remove my position and transfer me back to Silijian. I am afraid that I will lose the favor of Eunuch Liu and I will not be able to stay in Silijian. If I transfer me to the cold palace to serve as a sweeper..."

Liang Hong felt cold in his heart, and he felt it was swept away. He had just tasted the attention of people and felt like the stars were holding the moon, and he felt it was particularly precious. Now, let alone let him return to his identity before yesterday, which was an unbearable pain, let alone since then he became an old eunuch in the cold palace without power, power, no one has ever been in charge.

"You must do what Eunuch Liu has to do, otherwise I will not be much better than Zhang Zhong's fate! But... the silver, a total of 100,000 taels of silver, where can we raise it?" As soon as we thought of this, the first fire of the new official taking office burned in Liang Hong's heart, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Liang Hong opened the curtain of the sedan chair in a suffocation, gasped for a few breaths, and looked up and saw Zhang Mao, Jiang Bin, Liu Qi and other generals riding horses, talking and laughing, walking on the other side of the street. They pointed and pointed as if they were about to enter a restaurant. Liang Hong felt suddenly bright when he saw this scene.

: In Bazhou now, he wants to raise 100,000 taels of silver. He cannot make the officials, gentry, or the people. Who can he make the other ones? There will be no silver in the sky. Are you going to make these ideas of thieves?

Liang Hong thought with peace of mind: "Zhang Mao is a rich man, and Liu Liu and Liu Qi's group of people must have money. It's not easy to get the money after so many years of robbing the land? Well... they just surrendered, and there were not many acquaintances in the officialdom. It would be much easier to clean them up. Moreover, the local gentry and the people secretly hated these thieves. If our family rectified them, they could still gain a good reputation.

These people have seen the light and are exposed. They can no longer be a thief. The way out of retreat is gone. Then shouldn't you be at my mercy? As long as you threaten and induce, and intimidate these thieves will give these thieves a hundred thousand taels of silver... No! Isn't it easy to get 120,000 taels of silver?

Yangling's big broom! It's really good to sweep, it's really clean! I remember that there were countless gold and silver in Zhang Zhong's garrison's house. Yangling's big broom swept around and swept the dust. When I arrived, I left me an empty house, and all the valuable things were registered and put into the treasury.

Grandma, now our family is guarding Bazhou, so it can't be too shabby. This guardian and maid should have a show. Isn't it too much for them to have more than 20,000 taels?"
