Chapter 370

The autumn of the seventh year of Mengge Khan was extremely difficult for the Han officials in the Central Plains.

Alan Da'er set up a hook-up examination bureau in Guanzhong to check Jingzhao and Henan's wealth successively.Weaving charges and arresting officials.

In August, Li Dehui, the finance minister in charge of military rations, was implicated.

Wang Dechen stationed troops in Lizhou, choking the throat of Sichuan. Part of the food and grass for his tens of thousands of troops depended on Li Dehui to dispatch and supply. Once Li Dehui was captured, Meng Ge's plan to attack Shu was also greatly affected.

Afterwards, Alan Da'er went to Jingzhao Mansion and captured Lian Xixian, Jingzhao Xuanfu envoy Lian Xixian, Jingzhao Xuanfu envoy Shang Ting, Shanxi Road Xuanfu envoy Zhao Liangbi and others.

In September, Zhao Bi, the envoy of the Henan Economic Strategy, was captured...

Several important officials were only detained, while the rest of the officials were tortured and died in prison.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Alan Da'er's hook-up test this time is aimed at eliminating Kublai Khan's influence.

Sure enough, by mid-September, the three departments of appeasement, economics, and Xuanfu set up by Kublai Khan had all been abolished, and the Northland was already on the verge of returning to chaos.

All this, Song Ting in the south did not get the news at all, but Shi Zhang saw it.

Shi Zhang has always known very clearly that the Mongols will not always trust the princes of the Han Dynasty, and sooner or later they will make a settlement.Therefore, he thinks he is talented, but he dare not show it, so he acts like a wild crane.

This time, he faintly felt that it would be an opportunity to make trouble.

Meng Ge's suspicion is correct, the Han people in the north only respect the virtuous king Kublai Khan and don't know that there is a profuse sweat.Since this Khan refuses to practice Han law, let him see the strength of the Han family.

What Shi Zhang wondered was what his father Shi Tianze was still worried about, why he still refused to make up his mind?

Soon, Alan answered his doubts.On September [-], Yang Guo, a counselor of the Henan Economic Strategy Department, was arrested.

When Shi Zhang got the news, he was shocked.

"How could this be? Isn't father protecting Yang Guo all the time? Yang Guo is not a direct descendant of King Monan either."

Half of Shi Tianze's face was hidden in the darkness, making it hard to tell what he was thinking, and he said, "Among the officials arrested this time, Yang Guo is the only one who was not promoted by King Monan."

There are few imperial examinations in Great Mongolia, but they did.It was held when Yelu Chucai was there, and the champion was named Yang Huan.

Yang Guo was appreciated by Yang Huan, so he became an official again, and was transferred to Kaifeng by Shi Tianze, and had never met Kublai Khan.

Considering this, Shi Tianze said again: "It seems that Alan Da'er heard something. Yang Guo did something too carelessly."

Beads of sweat were already dripping down Shi Zhang's forehead, he forced himself to remain calm, and said, "In two days... Zhang Rou will arrive within two days, let's discuss with him and persuade him to come together..."

"Remember what I said last year?" Shi Tianze asked suddenly.

"The child doesn't know what the father is referring to."

"Should Yang Guo be kept or should be thrown away? I said at the time that it is most likely to be thrown away. What? The Mongolian Kingdom has only lost a few battles, and you forgot?"

Shi Zhang said, "Throw it away? But this opportunity..."

"Opportunity? If it is an opportunity. How could King Monan not dare to confront the Great Khan before handing over his military power? Even the King of Monan feels that the time has not come. What are you and my father and son, dare to call it an opportunity?"

Shi Zhang had never thought of this point, and when he thought about it carefully, he felt a chill run up his spine.

Who can understand the strength of the Great Mongol Kingdom and Meng Ge's prestige better than Kublai Khan?Even Kublai Khan bowed his head and obeyed orders, which has explained too many problems...

"How dare Li Fen blatantly separate the regime..."

"That's an idiot, not enough to plan." Shi Tianze sneered, and said: "I wanted to wait a little longer, make preparations first, and then wait for a better time. But since Yang Guo has been captured, I can't wait any longer. Gotta kill him."

"Yes, so far, we can only silence it."

~~
It is not easy to kill people in Alan Da'er's prison, and Shi Tianze has made his own arrangements for this matter.

And Shi Zhang went to Zhishi Garden by Longting Lake to destroy some information.

He has always shown others with the appearance of a wild crane, and he doesn't talk about pomp when he goes out. He only brings a few guards and walks slowly all the way.

Just bypassing the former site of Fanlou, three Taoist priests came out of the alley over there.

"Hey, it's Shi Erlang... I met Shi Erlang."

"De Yu? Why are you here?"

"I'll take my two senior brothers out to eat fried vegetables," Sun Deyu said.

Shi Zhang's eyes had already landed on the two people behind Sun Deyu. These two Taoist priests were tall and straight, one was in his twenties, and the other looked less than twenty.

"I'm Shi Zhang, what do you call the two priests?"

Shi Zhang liked to make friends with romantic people, so he couldn't help but cupped his hands, and smiled slightly, his face was soft and gentle.

"Poverty Yu Dechen."

"The poor Zhang Junbao."

Shi Zhang looked at the younger Taoist priest and said with a smile, "Isn't Jun Bao from the generation of Quanzhen Taoist?"

"Pimpedao was originally a casual cultivator." Zhang Junbao said: "I made Mr. Shi Lang laugh."

Sun Deyu pulled Yu Dechen and said: "Erlang, this is my senior brother. He learned from our ancestral court master Dongming Daoist, and he is good at swordsmanship. Zhang senior brother is a disciple of Zhang Zongshi of Zixiao Palace in Wudang Mountain..."

Shi Zhang felt a little funny, he believed, he was well read, and he knew about Wudang Mountain.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty always believed in it. Song Huizong called himself the "Emperor of the Taoist Emperor", and named the God of Martial God "You Sheng Zhen Wu Ling Ying Zhen Jun", and built Zixiao Palace on Wudang Mountain.

To do this, Song Huizong hoped that Zhenwu God could quell the war in the north.

It's a pity that this kind of fearful respect did not keep the northern territory for the Song Dynasty. It only made the world gradually begin to believe in the God of True Martial Arts, and Taoism in Wudang Mountain flourished day by day.

Wudang Mountain is located in Shiyan, northwest of Xiangyang, and belongs to the place where the Mongolian and Song Dynasties fought.It is not uncommon for some people to go to Mongolia and some to return to Song Dynasty.

However, Shi Zhang still asked, "Why did Daoist Zhang come to Kaifeng?"

Before Zhang Junbao answered, Yu Dechen said: "Poverty Dao was ordered by his master to go to the Song Dynasty to do business, met him, and was rescued by him."

"Oh? What is Daoist Yu going to do?" Shi Zhang smiled and said, "I'm curious. If Daoist Yu doesn't feel comfortable talking about it, that's fine."

Sun Deyu whispered: "Brother, this Shi Erlang is the yamen of the Jinglue Mansion."

Yu Dechen nodded, cupped his hands and said, "The poor Taoist is ordered to kill the villain who burned down the Chongyang Temple, Li Xia."

Shi Zhang was taken aback.

"Can you kill?"

"Since I killed him, the head has been handed over to Master Qiyun. The poor Taoist came to Kaifeng for this purpose."

Shi Zhang opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.

After a while, he asked again: "Is it true?"

"A poor Taoist has the heart of Taoism, and obeys the law of the Supreme, so how can he speak lies?"

After Shi Zhang listened, he didn't care about making friends for the time being. He glanced in Zhishiyuan's direction, cupped his hands and said, "I have something urgent to do. I'll go to Chongyang to see Li Xia's head later, and show my merits to Daoist Yu." .”

Yu Dechen said: "It's just following the teacher's order, why should I show my merits?"

"Yu Daochang doesn't know, but Li Xia has done another big thing in Shu... Let's talk about it later, goodbye." Although Shi Zhang didn't have much time, he still said it in a gentle manner, and just left with straw sandals.

~~
"Hey, he didn't follow in the end?"

"There is something urgent."

"Okay, give me the money anyway."

"Ah."

Sun Deyu looked back again, took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, and looked carefully at the sun, his eyes gradually glowing.

"Don't look, let someone bump into you." Yu Dechen said lightly.

"What does it matter? I earned it so hard, and I didn't get it by stealing..."

Zhang Junbao turned around and looked in the direction of Zhishiyuan, with a little thought in his quiet eyes, secretly thinking that Shi Zhang was not suspicious, and his temper was too idle...
