The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 109 The God of Hundred Arts
How many people were there in the Xiang army of the Song Dynasty?
The Privy Council doesn't know, the Ministry of War doesn't know, and several powerful military families don't know.

However, this time, what Liang Xin wanted was not for someone to receive military pay, nor was it a purge of officials in Hezhong Prefecture.The real purpose is to train troops.

Taxation camp, military training.

By the way, let's verify whether my control over the soldiers and horses in front of the palace can be further penetrated.

More importantly, for Cao Tan to go to Jiangnan, he should lay the foundation first and collect more experience in doing things.

It is said that Wang Youzhong in the city was having a fight with the officials of Hezhong Prefecture.

Outside the city, the door of a wealthy family was blown open. The third generation of one-handed short spray was used in actual combat for the first time. It was at this moment.

The moment the door opened, a two-meter-tall servant wearing leather armor slashed over with a two-handed knife.The young military attaché leading the team subconsciously raised his knife to block it. Behind him, a military attache from a noble family took out his own sword, which he bought from Wang Jingyu through his sister's network. All living beings are equal, and he raised his hand and said hair.

With a loud sound that shook the sky, the man holding the two-handed knife flew back five steps. His face was full of peach blossoms, and he couldn't bear to see it.

"A." The man holding All Beings Equality smiled coldly: "According to the law of Song Dynasty, when Fei Liu dies, there is already one. Just find another one in this house and copy him!"

A group of soldiers in front of the palace screamed and began to rush in.

Leather armor is also paper, let alone leather armor, even paper armor is also armor, let alone iron armor.

Everyone depends on the direction of the wind.

In the Song Dynasty, there was also a unique village called Baozhai. The north was against Liaozhong and the northwest was against Xixia. There were many villages, such as Hezhong Prefecture. The number was small, but there were some.

Their village leaders used to be appointed by the imperial court, but now they are mostly local snakes bought with money.

The existence of Fubao Village in Hezhong is to protect the trade routes and deal with bandits.

At this time, the fortress owners of several fortresses saw the Forbidden Army attacking many Dazhuangzi, and they immediately sensed the direction of the wind. They quickly organized their manpower, put on the registered equipment, and sent out several liaison personnel.

Simply put, just one sentence.

Brothers of the Forbidden Army, wherever you tell us to go, we will go there. Let us squat and never stand.

It's noon.

In Bianjing City, Liang Xin accompanied Zhao Ji for lunch and learned some health tips.

Zhao Ji.

Liang Xin had to say something convincing.

God of all arts.

Apart from running the country, the word genius seems a bit demeaning when used on him.

Recently, Zhao Ji has been a bit noisy.Liang Xin worked too hard. He had to read too many memorials one by one. He had a headache and was tired from thinking about many issues.

So, Zhao Ji is researching prescriptions for food supplements.

By the way, Liang Xin was trying to fool around with whether he wanted to trade hard goods with the Jurchens, such as high-quality ginseng or precious medicinal materials from Liaodong.

Let’s talk about Hezhong Mansion.

As Wang Youzhong said, afternoon.

When Lu Wencong entered the Hezhong Magistrate's Yamen, the soldiers behind him threw more than a hundred pairs of armor in the lobby. Although they looked like tatters, they were indeed armors.

This matter is no longer a trivial matter.

Wang Youzhong stood up: "Young men, let's ransack the house."

As long as the house is searched, there must be evidence, and the evidence is all copied from the house.

Wang Youzhong was very, very experienced in this point when he was in Bianjing City.

As for why Liang Xin knew about the collusion between local tycoons and officials.

Wang Youzhong didn't understand.He didn't know that Liang Xin had seen the plum in the golden vase. The history of Ximen's official fortune was a history of collusion between evil gentry and evil officials.

First, pick the big players that the market dare not discuss, and then directly knock on the door.

If there is armor at home.

The Imperial Guards of the Palace Front Division do not live for free, they have plenty of means to deal with these bastards.

At this time, Hezhong Mansion began to ransack homes.

The 1000 people temporarily stationed fifty miles away also came with the female officials from the Palace Bureau.

That evening, the hard goods were released.

Several large packages of white paper produced in Hedong County were copied from Puzhou white paper. Wang Youzhong didn't understand it very well. Some of the female officials in the Shanggong Bureau were proficient in it. The quality was extremely good.

Then, at the home of Tongzhi of Hezhong Prefecture, two pieces of jadeite were also copied out of a concubine's jewelry box.

Wang Youzhong was determined.

"Prefect Li, the Za family is going to be tortured. There are rumors that the black market in Bianjing has nearly a hundred white paper cuts in Puzhou. I don't know if this counts."

Li Gefei was also a disciple of Su Shi.

He may not be good at other things, but he is also professional when it comes to pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

After Li Gefei carefully studied the large packages of paper that he copied out, he sighed deeply: "My teacher once said that paper and ink are close friends. Among the hundred pieces of paper in Bianjing City, only ten One piece of paper can be called the paper in pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the rest is just paper for calligraphy and painting."

Wang Youzhong was just curious: "I would like to hear the details."

"My teacher once said that ink is divided into five colors. The ink falls on the paper from the tip of the pen and grows in the paper. Each stroke is the true love between the ink and the paper. However, ordinary paper, in order to be cheaper, has a higher output. , but lacks this kind of deep love for ink. Although this is good, paper has become cheaper, many people can afford paper, and more books are printed, but it is not really good paper after all."

Li Gefei compared paper and ink to lovers and composed a poem on the spot.

What Wang Youzhong could understand was that the truly top-quality paper they copied was hidden and prepared to be shipped to Bianjing for sale on the black market. The profits were huge.

Because today's officials like calligraphy and painting, Bianjing City has also begun to have a new popularity in calligraphy and painting.

Paper is a necessity.

Paper, also divided into several grades.

The most expensive paper in Bianjing City at the moment is called Nan Tang Cheng Xin.Not only Zhao Ji likes it, but Su Shi and other famous calligraphers and painters also like it.

Apart from being expensive, there are no shortcomings for the time being.

With the cards in hand, Wang Youzhong's performance began.

The Tongzhi of Hezhong Prefecture was naturally a Jinshi.

Imprisonment in prison is absolutely not allowed without conviction.If he is convicted, according to Song law, he can be given a stick, a tattoo on his face, and exile.Wang Youzhong was going to try the method taught by Liang Xin and shut down the small black room.

A very tightly enclosed cabin, about five feet high.

That is to say, except for Wu Dalang's figure, normal people cannot stand.

The width is one and a half feet, which means it's a bit difficult to sit down normally because it's very crowded on both sides.It is about four feet long, and it is impossible to lie down. Even if you want to sit and straighten your legs, it is just not enough.

Stuffing the fellow magistrates of Hezhong Prefecture into him, since he couldn't be beaten or scolded, and he had evidence, the Song Code allowed him to be locked up, but the Song Code didn't say what kind of environment he would be locked up in.

Therefore, this cabin was built one after another, and many people were imprisoned.

three days later.

Starting from Hezhong Prefecture, the messenger returned to Bianjing with official documents and some evidence.Li Gefei also came back with the messenger. In ten days, it will be autumn.
