in charge

Thousands of people rioted in Zicao County, Nandeling Prefecture!

In November, thousands of peasant households who had been oppressed by corrupt officials to the point of death attacked county government offices with hoes and sickles. The bones were exposed at the gate of the yamen.Then these thousands of people formed their own grassland rebel army, vowed to raise the banner of rebellion on the spot, and killed all the corrupt officials in South Germany.

The governor of Lingzhou hurriedly dispatched [-] officers and soldiers to suppress it, and the people of the whole county joined the Caoyi army one after another, and the battle ended in a tie, with heavy casualties on both sides.In the assassination history, the emperor of Nande was written, and the whole court was shocked.The new emperor and the empress dowager were furious, and sent another [-] reinforcements, and ordered to flatten Zicao County without leaving their mouths.

The news came from Yuan Cheng's eyeliner in Nande. After Yuan Cheng read the manuscript sent by Mingnian, he had to put aside the matter of the ship gang, and hurriedly sent Xu Jiu and others away, taking only Mo Zi and Li Yan, to the study in the inner garden.

The visitor was dressed in a tattered gray jacket, his face was bruised and purple from the cold, and his hands were covered with frostbite.

As soon as he saw Yuan Cheng, his hands twitched as if he had been hit by a sheep's wind, his mouth twisted like a caterpillar, he knocked his knees on the ground, and knocked his head hard.

In Mo Zi's eyes, he looked like he really wanted to hug Yuan Cheng's tutu.

"Zhang Zhen?" Yuan Cheng rarely showed a look of surprise, "I thought you had left Nande."

"Although the world is vast, it is difficult to find a pure land. Yuan Xiang once said to Zhen that it is good for the pure to be self-cleaning, but when the whole world is turbid, what is the use of persistence in a drop of clear water. Back then, Yuan Xiang saved Zhen's life , I not only did not say a word of thanks, but also said those unsavory words. After I escaped my life and lived in seclusion in the temple for two years, I would like to understand the words of Yuan Xiang. One step later. When I heard that Yuan Xiang had escaped, I have been looking for your whereabouts. One day, when I met a student who had traveled to South Germany for a week, when he mentioned his teacher, he had the same name as Yuan. I wonder how there is such a Coincidentally, when the imperial court was in a panic about Zicao County, they fled to Dazhou in a hurry. After inquiring, I firmly believed that this official was the former Prime Minister of Yuan, and came to see the king in a hurry. The card is still useful, and the gatekeeper let me in after seeing it." Zhang Zhen called out to Yuan Xiang again, "At the end of Nande's struggle, what plans does Yuan Xiang have in mind?"

Zhang Zhenyuan was the governor of Nandeling Prefecture, with a noble character and integrity.Two years ago, he beheaded Taishi Wu's nephew who did many crimes. He was charged with unwarranted charges and was thrown into prison and sentenced to beheaded.Zhang Zhen's family pooled a sum of money and bribed Yuan Cheng to accept the change from beheading in autumn to exile, and then arranged for someone to rescue him on the way to exile.

"I am no longer the chancellor of Nande, so I will just call him by my first name from now on." Although Yuan Cheng was surprised to see Zhang Zhen again, his nature was indifferent and he was not as excited as the other party at all. Can't eat and sleep well, why don't you go down to rest and recover your strength first, then talk about the future?" "Yuanxiang... my lord, don't talk about anything else, Zhang Zhen can go elsewhere now, and is willing to follow you to repay his life-saving grace , Your Excellency, please allow me.,, Zhang Zhen refused to get up.

Mo Zi's eyes tightened, is this another guest?

Yuan Cheng didn't give a letter of approval, and told Ming Nian to take the guests down.

After Zhang Zhen left, Li Yan looked at Yuan Cheng and said, "My lord, you should know that time is not waiting for me. In troubled times, who can escape from disputes? However, if you have such a great talent and don't show it, isn't it cheap for those vulgar people? Regardless of Nande, it is the way for a man to achieve the world, I hope you think twice." Yuan Cheng smiled and said nothing.

Li Yan shook his head, sighed and left.

Yuan Cheng looked at Mo Zi, and saw her frowning slightly, her hunches drawn into a straight line, and asked, "What are you thinking?" Mo Zi let out a heavy breath, "Yuan Cheng, if my understanding is not good, don't laugh." Me, Zhang Zhen, and Li Yan, do they want to praise you as a hero in troubled times?" Candlelight danced in Yuan Cheng's eyes, "Mo Zi, can you be a hero if you want to? I was imprisoned in Nande Before, I thought about how to seek justice for the hundreds of members of the Yuan family. After I was imprisoned, I only thought about how to escape. However, all along, I have been very free to do things other than revenge. In my hands Come on, I took a lot of life and put a lot of life, but good and bad are mixed. I will not be sad when a good person dies; and I will not applaud when a bad person dies. No matter how I look at it, I am not a hero material."

Mo Zi found that he was modest, and answered with a smile, "A hero, like Cao Cao, would rather let the world down than me: A hero, like Liu Bang, is a gentleman on the surface, but in fact he has to follow his ideas in everything. These two, you They are all there. How could it not be the material of a hero, and there will be a good material tomorrow." Yuan Cheng held up the tea on the table, "Seeing off guests, Miss Mo Zi, it's easy to go." Mo Zi was very happy, really going out, But there is still something to say. "Actually, it doesn't matter whether others praise you or not, what matters is how you want to do it yourself. For me, I just remember your words, and I will follow you when the time comes. I think your meaning should be Can it save my little life? For me, that's fine. I don't care about the rest." Yuan Cheng watched her go out the door, watching the slender shadow crawling over the edge, he lightly He put away his smile lightly, his expression completely calmed down.

Mo Zi went to the north gate and got on the carriage, the pitch black was stained with gray by the heavy snow that was falling.

"Ah Hao Ayue, are you blood relatives with Yuan Shi?" Mo Zi was not affected by what Fu Shi did at the banquet that night, but the news of the riots in South Germany brought by Zhang Zhen disturbed her thoughts.

If a country has reached the point where the government is forcing the people to rebel, how far is it from changing the dynasty?

I used to think that the troubled times were just a talk, but when the chaos really happened, it would take a long transition.

Now, Yuling is destroyed, Nande's internal worries are fatal, Daqiu is eyeing, and the only one who can check and balance is the strong outside the middle.Could it be that it is true that the long-term unity must be divided, and the long-term division must be united. This divided land is about to start to unify?

Ahao and Ayue looked at each other, although they didn't understand the reason, Ahao's representative replied "No. We are orphans and were raised by Aunt Jiao Jiao since we were young. But even though we are not related by blood, we are still grateful for the nurturing grace of Ji Yuanshi, Definitely die."

Whether Yuan Cheng retaliates or not has nothing to do with them, Mo Zi thought so, and couldn't help but smile a little lightly.Although she is not qualified to persuade others to let go of hatred, it would be nice to have one less person living for hatred.

Ah Hao and Ah Yue felt strange seeing that Mo Zi had no more text, but she couldn't open her mouth to ask, so she had to give up.They naturally didn't know, but Mo Zi felt that Yuan Cheng's attitude towards revenge seemed to be serious, and the people around him helped him set his goals high, so they were afraid that they would be stabbed, so they made side-stepping remarks.

The heavy snow that night continued to fall for several days, and the whole area was covered with snow, and the surface of the river outside the red tree was covered with a layer of ice.

"The ice on our river is not that thick. You haven't seen the ice in Risheng Bay. It's so thick." Min Song just came back from visiting Mr. Min Yu, and while gesticulating, he talked to Mo Zi, "It's too cold to start work at all. It's on vacation. The old man heard that we were working in single shirts, so he said he wanted to come to Hongyu to have a look. I told him that I didn't have time to entertain him. Back then, when I told him about the boat shed, what did he say, Brother Mo After all, the experience is inexperienced, and the capital is huge. Want to learn now?"

Mo Zi laughed after hearing this, "Ah Song, you are a Hongyu person from the inside out."

Wei Qing just came in and heard "Brother Mo didn't say that he admitted that he came to steal the teacher?" "Who stole the teacher?" , is one of the biggest characteristics of red cornel.

Seeing that Wei Qing was holding an envelope in his hand, Mo Zi asked, "What's the matter?"

Wei Qing said seriously, "A letter from the Ministry of Industry." Mo Zi opened it and looked, "The Ministry of Industry asked me to go to Shangdu Shipyard tomorrow, saying that he wanted to ask some details about the sunken ship."

Three days after the ship sank, Xiao Er's soldiers had already been picked up by ships from other water villages. Xiao Er asked her to retrieve the boat, but he didn't ask her afterwards, maybe Yuan Cheng had explained it through Zhongshu Sheng.Later, Shangdu Shipyard sent a large ship to take the wreckage away.

"It's all settled, why ask?" Wei Qing was surprised.

Min Song also didn't understand, "We were just saving people, what does it have to do with us when the ship sank?" "Maybe because we were there at the time, we could give them more clues. After all, it is not a trivial matter for a ship to sink to the bottom. "Mo Zi put away the paperwork, "Ah Song, has the date of your master craftsman's exam been fixed?"

Min Song originally wanted to go back to his hometown to participate in the Dangzhou Great Craftsman Examination, but when the Daqiu and Nande missions were coming, the Ministry of Industry also regarded this examination as a welcome program, inviting the most potential masters from each state to participate in the examination. All craftsmen come to participate in the test.Min Song was one of those invited.

"On the tenth day of the first lunar month, the exam will be divided into four days, and the Lantern Festival will be out of the list." Mentioning this, Min Song was very excited. We're halfway." Wei Qing came to sing the opposite tune, "If you fail to pass the test, not only will the festival become a sad day, but you will also lose face in front of your family. I don't think you should participate this year, even Brother Mo's skills are better than But." Min Song's face darkened, indeed his shipbuilding skills were far inferior to Mo Zi's.

"You can't say that. The craftsman's examination test is a craft, which can be completely related to shipbuilding."

Mo Zi has heard from Yuesong that it involves carving, grinding, making and other techniques, and the materials range from wood to metal. The topics are selected according to the candidates' different areas of expertise. Master Craftsman is a collective title, but it will be subdivided .

"Brother Mo!" Zan Jin ran in, also holding something in his hand.

"Didn't you say you won't come back until after dinner?" Recently, it was too hard for Zanjin to follow her every step of the way. She gave him a day off, and he went to look for Cen Yilang in Wangqiu Tower.

"Brother Mo, it seems that something serious has happened." Zan Jin Heijun showed anxiety on his face, "Look at what's written on this paper."

It was a piece of rough gray textured paper, on which a sentence was neatly written in block letters, one sentence after another. @.
