Chapter 40 The General of the Yang Family of Linzhou
Seeing that Fan Zhi was playing with it, the water and fire sticks as thick as a bowl were raised. The military men were scared and shouted at the top of their voices, "We are imperial guards in the court, who dares to touch us?"
After hearing this, Fan Zhi laughed loudly, "I haven't said that, I almost forgot. Since I am an imperial guard, I will do it according to the military law!"
"Come!"
Fan Zhi shouted loudly, and hundreds of soldiers immediately surged out. The leader was named Li San, bowing and bowing, "Please give orders to Mr. Fan!"
Fan Zhi pointed to the military men and said casually: "Go and ask them if they are people from the imperial guards. If so, behead them immediately. If not, be punished 80!"
Li San clasped his fists and said, "As for order!"
He turned around, pulled out his waist knife, rubbed a military man's forehead twice, and then smiled, "Who are you?"
These guys all cried, "I, we are ordinary people, ordinary people!"
Li San raised his foot and kicked him hard, cursing: "Prevent things, beat them!"
The yamen runners raised their water and fire sticks, crackling and hitting them hard on their butts and backs. Within 40 strokes, a few people became confused and almost fainted.
Fan Zhi looked at him coldly, without any mercy. He waited until he finished the fight before he waved his hand and asked someone to drag the soldiers away. These guys were as soft as noodles, leaving only one breath, and there was no good piece of meat on his back to his thighs, which was shocking!
Fan Zhi said loudly to the surrounding merchants: "From now on, outside the Zhuque Gate, I will personally inspect. Anyone who has illegal people bullies the market and harms merchants will just report to me. No matter who it is, I will definitely punish you and give you justice!"
The merchants were silent for a while, and thunderous cries burst out randomly, as if a mountain torrent broke out, strong and rapid.
Fan Zhi did have the spirit of decisiveness. He not only cleaned up the military, but also punished the gangsters, the scum of the yamen, and the gangs that bullied the market... all the messy things were wiped out.
Lao Fan was naturally prepared for such accurate action. The new official took office for three times, but he had to admit his bad luck.
Soon, outside the Zhuque Gate became the most prosperous market area in Kaifeng. Many beggars held cow bone plates and sang nursery rhymes everywhere, praising Fan Xianggong's actions.
"This Fan Zhi is quite capable. In just a few days, the streets are very different." Chen Shi smiled. He looked up and saw a beggar singing with a cow bone plate, and immediately waved.
"Li Qing, I am Chen Shi!"
The other party was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes with his black hands, and finally made sure. He grinned, hurriedly picked up the cow bone plate, trotted to the opposite side of Chen Shi, grabbed the teacup and drank it.
"Shitou, you guys, you're good, you're making a fuss!" Li Qing gave a thumbs up. He saw Ye Hua next to him and said curiously: "Who is this?"
"It's my friend, Ye Hua, good brother!" Chen Shi smiled and introduced to Ye Hua, "This guy is called Li Qing. We met him when we were begging for dinner. This kid likes to steal things. His hands and feet are not clean, and he will be arrested in prison every now and then."
Li Qing was revealed and didn't care at all. He stepped on the bench with one foot and said proudly: "How about lie in a prison? There is a shed on the prison, walls on all sides, and food for prisons. It's much better than a dilapidated temple! I like it inside!"
"Then why are you coming out?" Chen Shi said bluntly.
Li Qing looked around with a stingy look, then lowered his voice and said, "Shitou, do you know, I'm going to have an official meal!"
"What official meal? Do you have that fate?" Chen Shi didn't believe it.
"I'm going to work as an office in the yamen. From now on, I will also wear a soap coat, hold a ruler and chain, and catch people everywhere, which is so majestic!"
Chen Shi looked at his virtue, "Which yamen will use you? It's blind! "
Li Qing was anxious, "You look down on others. There are really people in our court who know heroes. Let me tell you that it was promised by Mr. Fan Zhi and Fan in person."
"Fanzhi?"
"Yes, see, I'm right, I'm just given to Mr. Fan in my children's songs now. Also, I'm going to stare at the streets. What kind of thieves are there? I'm going to steal children. I'm going to report to the yamen. If I catch ten people, I'll be the official!"
Li Qing said, and took another glass of water and patted his butt, "I won't waste time, see you later." He turned around and left, leaving Chen Shi, and his eyes almost fell from the teacup.
This is too shameless. He actually hired someone to praise him. Why does Fan Zhi seem to be even more excessive than Feng Dao?
"Huazi, I think you are right. There is no good thing for these civil servants!"
Ye Hua shrugged. He didn't like Fan Zhi's style very much, but it is undeniable that Fan Zhi's strategy was effective. He first established his authority and then promoted it, which soon aroused the confidence of merchants. The imperial court's decrees had to be generous, and he could not do good deeds without leaving a name.
Next, whether it is to build an outer city or clear the Bian River, it will be much more convenient.
If you think about it carefully, Fan Zhi and Ye Hua's methods are so similar.
However, Ye Hua has no other person's status and can only rely on braised chicken to lose money to gain publicity and attract popularity. Fan Zhi directly uses both soft and hard methods, and even deceives and cheats. There is no difference between the two in essence.
Unexpectedly, he was the same as Fan Zhi. Ye Hua was a little depressed. He got up and prepared to go home. He had seen the situation of the Bian River for several consecutive days. He would invite Xinjun to the city tomorrow, waiting for the end of the throne ceremony, and probably would be able to formally construct.
Ye Hua and Chen Shi came out of the teahouse, and suddenly a noisy sound came from the inn opposite him, and several young men pushed a young man out.
This person is less than twenty years old and has a tall figure. He has some legs. He looks like a sequelae left by frequent riding horses. He should be good at it, but he has a pale face and a strong sick look.
The young man pushed him out, and the young man blushed, "I, give me my luggage and weapons!"
"I still have the face to ask for luggage!" The young man screamed, "Ah, you have lived there for three months. How can you owe us your room and medicine money? If you didn't see that you were sick, we would sell you!"
Several young men pushed and shoved the young man again, pushed him far away, kicked him a few times, and then said viciously: "Get out of here, don't die in our store even if you die!"
The young man staggered and only took a few steps before falling to the side of the road, not far from Ye Hua and Chen Shi. He clenched his fists and smashed the road surface violently, lifting dust, and tears fell down.
"It's really because the tiger falls into Pingyang and is bullied by dogs. Will my Yang family in Linzhou care about how much money the house is?"
Ye Hua didn't know why the young man was kicked out, and he was not as good as anyone to save him, but when he heard the Yang family in Linzhou, he stopped.
He walked to the young man a few steps and asked, "Friend, you are from Linzhou, do you know someone named Yang Jiye?"
The young man hesitated for a moment, looked up at Ye Hua, "What did you ask this person for? Have you heard of him?"
"I'm afraid no one will not know Yang Jiye!" Ye Hua said in his heart, and he smiled, "I occasionally heard from merchants mention this person, saying that this person is a hero, very amazing, and the Liao soldiers ran away with their heads in their arms!"
When the young man heard this, his tone finally eased, "Yang Jiye is my brother, but he is not Yang Jiye, but Liu Jiye!"
Ye Hua was puzzled, and the young man explained: "My brother brought people to ambush Khitan soldiers last year and killed more than 300 people. The Hedong Jiedushi Liu Chong accepted my brother as his grandson and gave him the name Liu Jiye!"
"oh!"
Ye Hua suddenly realized, "So, you are the son of Yang Xin, the governor of Linzhou. How could you end up like this?"
The young man smiled bitterly and shook his head. Suddenly, his eyes rolled, he fainted, and his mouth foamed constantly... Ye Hua was shocked. This is Yang Wudi's younger brother!
"Shitou, go find the doctor with him on his back!"
