On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 114 New recruits
When the time came, following the order from the supervisor and beheader, the executioner raised his knife and dropped it, blood spattered, Yan Rong's head was in a different place, and he didn't suffer too much pain, unlike Cui Che's pawn Wang Qing, he always A few more knives were made on the prisoner's neck before his head could be beheaded.

Cui Che squeezed out of the cheering crowd, and temporarily parted from Pei Xiu.

Today, Yang Su took a bath and invited him to the house for a gathering.

"When will Cui Lang leave for his post?"

In the gazebo, Yang Su fiddled with the charcoal fire and asked.

Cui Che poured green plum wine into the small red clay stove on the charcoal fire, and replied:

"Enter the palace tomorrow to ask the Second Sage to resign, and leave early the next morning."

"Cui Lang is able to solve the country's urgent needs, and the sage has praised him a lot. He often boasted to the old man in private, saying that he found a good son-in-law for the eldest princess."

Yang Su withdrew his hand and smiled.

"The marriage between the little nephew and the eldest princess is also thanks to my uncle."

Cui Che finished pouring the wine, closed the lid, and smiled.

Today, he has already figured out the whole story of his marriage. At first, Yang Jian wanted to marry Yang Awu for him. It was Yang Su who witnessed the scene of Cui Che and Yang Lihua under the osmanthus tree. Mind.

"The old man is still worried that Cui Lang will blame me for being nosy."

"The eldest princess is gentle and not shy, and she manages the family well. How can Che have such a good wife?"

The two chatted for a long time before Yang Su got to the point:

"Li Gang is extremely pedantic. Although Su Gong and I named him as Cui Lang's long history, we didn't really want Cui Lang to get close to him."

Apparently Yang Su had heard about Cui Che's going out of the city with Li Gang yesterday.

The wine was already warm, Cui Che was not in a hurry to answer, but poured a glass of green plum wine for himself and Yang Su, he raised the wine cups, and then said:
"The little nephew was recommended by his uncle to go east to relieve disasters, and occasionally he got the method of making salt.

"Now that the official worships the governor of Qingzhou, it is my uncle and Su Shangshu who speak for my nephew.

"People are not grass, how can I be ruthless, how can I forget the kindness of my uncle."

Yang Su laughed loudly when he heard the words, raised a cup to drink with Cui Che, and said:

"Cui Lang is close to Xuangan, and he is the old master's nephew. It's easy to do, so you don't need to worry about it."

40-year-old Yang Su and 14-year-old Cui Che had a drink in the gazebo in the backyard.

After drinking for three rounds, Cui Che saw Mrs. Yang Su's Mrs. Zheng walking towards the pavilion from a distance, and asked him to resign.

Yang Su also saw his wife, he let out a long sigh with a trace of sadness on his face.

After Cui Che left the banquet, he met with Mrs. Zheng and was about to leave the mansion in a hurry, but before he had gone far, he heard Mrs. Zheng and Yang Su's quarrel.

Compared with Yang Su's fierce wife, Zheng Shi, Cui Che felt that his own Yang Lihua was gentle and lovely.

On the third day of December in the third year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign (583), when the dawn dawned, the sound of drums announcing dawn rang out as usual.

The Wucheng mansion was busy and noisy, and everyone was busy packing their bags. After breakfast, Cui Che was about to leave for Qingzhou to take up his post.

Local officials in the Sui Dynasty were allowed to bring their family members to take office, but it was customary that the parents and children of 15 years old and above were not allowed to accompany the chief officials and governors, so they had to stay in Beijing as hostages.

Cui Che's parents died early and he had no heirs, so naturally he wanted to move the whole family to live in Qingzhou with him.

Pei Xiu was conscripted to join the army as the office secretary of the general manager's office. This was his old line in the Bingzhou general manager's office. Li Gang took the position of long history, leaving the post of Sima, and Pei Xiu had no military knowledge.

The parents of the general manager and the governor are not allowed to accompany, but the staff are not included, so Cui Zhaorong can also accompany.

Cui Che had already brought Yang Lihua into the palace yesterday to bid farewell to Yang Jian and his wife. Although Dugu Jialuo was reluctant to part with his beloved daughter, he also knew that Cui Che's mission was serious and did not stop him.

And Yang Jian also told Cui Che thousands of times, let him focus on civil affairs, and at the same time, don't neglect to open fields to make salt.

After eating breakfast, the family members went out one after another to board the carriage. Cui Che left some servants to guard Wucheng Duke's mansion, and first met Li Gang.

They also picked up Fang Yanqian and his family, who were recruited into the Qingzhou General Manager's Mansion yesterday, and then left Beijing for the Kanto.

Fang Yanqian's ancestral home was Qinghe, Jizhou, Hebei, and he came from the Fang family of Qinghe. However, his ancestors moved to Qi County and took root in the land of Qingqi. He was also a famous family in Qingzhou.

During the Northern Qi Dynasty, Fang Yanqian was Gao Cheng's second son, and Guangning Wang Gao Xiaoheng was the chief bookkeeper.After the fall of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he ran around with his relatives and friends, trying to restore the Northern Qi Dynasty, but failed.

After Yang Jian usurped the Zhou Dynasty, Fang Yanqian became an official. He first served as Cheng Fenglang of the Ministry of Officials, and then moved to supervise the censor.

Although the Supervising Censor sounds prominent, he is actually only an official position under the eighth rank. He is not qualified to enter and exit the main entrance of the court, and can only enter and exit through the side entrance.

However, it took a lot of effort for Cui Che to conscript Fang Yanqian into the mansion. First, he visited the house and moved out his grandfather Cui Jishu, and then persuaded Fang Yanqian, and then asked Yang Jian to transfer Fang Yanqian to serve as the shogunate secretary to join the army. Only then will it work.

Cui Jishu and Fang Yanqian did have a relationship. As we all know, Cui Jishu and Gao Cheng have a very close relationship, and Fang Yanqian is the aide of Gao Cheng's son. It is normal for the two parties to have a relationship.

After all, before Cui Jishu was unjustly killed, he promoted many scholars. All in all, this time, Cui Che invited Fang Yanqian because of Cui Jishu's favor.

Yang Jian thought that Cui Che's request to recruit Fang Yanqian was because he valued his family's prestige in Qingzhou. During the Northern Qi Dynasty, Fang Yanqian was designated as Qi County Lord Bo, and his family's strength can be seen in the local area.

But Cui Che was actually not targeting Fang Yanqian.

It is true that Fang Yanqian has outstanding abilities. Without Cui Che's interference, he would be released as the magistrate of Changge County in the future. In the assessment of county magistrates across the country, he was rated as the number one in the world.

But Cui Che obviously cared more about Fang Yanqian's only son, Fang Xuanling who was only five years old.

Before visiting Fang Yanqian yesterday, Cui Che felt that his son was destined for him. This time, Fang Xuanling also returned to his hometown with his father to take up the post in Qingzhou.

This time, Cui Che did not mobilize his part in Boling. The 3000 troops, said to be the township regiment, actually already formed the model of elite soldiers. Cui Che asked Zhang Wu to practice well. Three thousand cavalrymen went south.

It's better to let them spend more time with their families now.

Of course, the main reason is that Cui Che wants to take advantage of the opportunity of opening fields to make salt, and develop a second lineage army.

Before leaving Beijing, Cui Che asked Yang Jian to recruit salt workers and at the same time form a salt corps to take care of the salt farms.

Yang Jian immediately agreed for the sake of tens of millions of hu a year of salt, and he was also worried that those private salt dealers would destroy it.

Cui Che made up his mind to form this 3000-member salt army with his own hands. He dare not say that he turned them into private soldiers, but he had to imprint Cui Che's imprint on them deeply.

Different from the previous six-year term for officials, Yang Jian changed his term to three years in order to avoid collusion between local officials and powerful officials. Naturally, Cui Che could not stay in Qingzhou for a long time.

　Thank you everyone for reminding that the two Li Gang were indeed confused, but since it has already been posted, it is not easy to change it. I will be more detailed when checking the information in the future, and I will also downplay the relationship between Li Gang and Li Chong, so I won’t mention it again.
