Chapter 4: The destiny changes and the dragon's spirit is divided, and the jade altar is reproduced
Qian Yiqun has a stronghold in Shanhaiguan.
Wu Xiang's family.
This was the place where the Shanxi merchants prepared for him when he was "scammered" last time. Wu Xiang himself said that he had read "Mo Hanzhai Zhiyi" and admired the kind-hearted master's methods, so he heard from his friends in the capital that the Taoist master came from the east and sent someone to wait day and night. However, Qian Yiqun had already communicated with Yilin using a transmission array. If this plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain is like a fire, how could he be deceived?
Moreover, Wu Xiang and his son Wu Sangui are very famous in history and are not ordinary people among the Liaodong generals today. How could Qian Yiqun be so concerned about them and not doubt them at all? But after contacting them, he found that although Wu Xiang is greedy for money and afraid of death and is stupid, he is absolutely not insidious and cunning.
Or to put it more bluntly: He is so stupid that he can't be sinister and cunning...
In short, he is a villain, but not a bad person.
Qian Yiqun also met Wu Sangui, who was 19 years old this year.
At the age of nineteen, Wu Sangui seemed much more sensible than many of his peers, including Qian Yiqun. When Qian Yiqun was still chatting with a fox for a leg of lamb, Wu Sangui had learned to be righteous and cultivate his best friends.
This future general officer of Shanhaiguan who was said to be angry as a hero, now has a very positive outlook on his three views. Not only did he be determined to serve the country and the court, he did not relax at all about his loyalty to the emperor education under his subordinates.
What Qian Yiqun heard most in the capital was that Liaodong generals encircled land and supported themselves, regarded the country as their neighbors, and regarded Liaodong as their own things. What's more, even said: If it weren't for the great power of Jiannu, it would be difficult to guarantee that these Liao would do the things that An Lushan Shi Siming.
But when I was really in Liaodong, I would drink and eat meat with these Liao generals and soldiers. I would have a different feeling when talking to each other during the meal.
"Teacher Hou, the student is here again!" Wu Sangui smiled and entered Qian Yiqun's villa with a jar of wine. He was wearing iron armor and holding an iron helmet between his arms. Every time he took a step, the sound of armor pieces hitting him.
Qian Yiqun was sitting at the rockery in the courtyard, looking through the county annals of the counties in Liaodong. Wu Xiang thought he was doing the Liao incident and wanted to understand the terrain and scenery of Liaodong, but he didn't know that Qian Yiqun was trying to find the legendary Jiang Anzi.
"Teacher, this wine is not an ordinary spirit, it is a medicinal wine that has been soaked in a century of ginseng. Can you try it?" Wu Sangui sat opposite Qian Yiqun, placed the wine jar on the ground, and cleaned up the books on the stone table.
Because Qian Yiqun knew history, he had always been lukewarm to this great traitor for the ages. Sometimes he had to "rely rely on his seniority" to make words or even directly scold and teach a lesson. If this great traitor dared to have any resentment, Qian Yiqun would dare to take the opportunity to eliminate the disaster in the bud.
But Wu Sangui's performance surprised him.
When Qian Yiqun scolded Wu Sangui for being "young and frivolous" in front of everyone, Wu Sangui fell to the ground without any hesitation, kowtowed heavily, and praised: "What the teacher said is that Sangui is hard to get rid of bad habits, and he is so arrogant. Even if he didn't expect it, he would ask the teacher to punish him."
Faced with such a "future traitor" who regards himself as a student and holds disciple etiquette, Qian Yiqun is embarrassed. Whether it is punished or not, it should be the business of Commander Wu Sangui. What kind of tricks he interferes with? Could it be that he really beaten to death with just one and a half sentence?
Since then, Qian Yiqun no longer showed his sharp teeth to Wu Xiang or Wu Sangui, as if he had returned to the mountain and became a kind little Taoist priest. Soon he learned from the fox that Wu Sangui proudly said to his father: "A kind-hearted master is a moral and honest person, how could he target us for no reason? This is clearly a test of a master! It seems that his son still has the opportunity to join him."
Qian Yiqun was very wrong with this, but even Fox and Zhongxing Yue thought so. What else could he explain? Revealing Wu Sangui's future truest?
Qian Yiqun picked up the wine bowl and just got close to it and smelled a scent of ginseng and musk, but the wine taste was not very strong.
"Oh? And honey?" Qian Yiqun sipped gently, and his mouth was full of sweetness. "This wine is definitely not sold in Liaodong."
Wu Sangui laughed and said, "This is the recipe my father asked for from Jiangnan. I made some of it homemade, just for the teacher."
Qian Yiqun held the wine bowl, but sighed in his heart and said to himself: There is indeed a difference in talent between people. Some people can practice Taoism, some people are good at mysterious arts, while others are born to be heroes.
"What do the teacher think?" Wu Sangui leaned forward and asked with a smile.
"Average." Qian Yiqun put down the wine bowl, "The wine is not mellow and has too strong auxiliary flavor. This is the chaos of the minister Lingjun."
Wu Sangui was slightly stunned and thought to himself: Teacher Hou is clearly guiding me. Could it be that I will do something ruthless in the future? My Wu family has been guarding the nine borders for generations, and my young man is determined to quell the chaos in Liaodong for the court. Is there any variable in this?
"Please give it a clear word from the teacher!" Wu Sangui retreated and bowed, "Sangui must not do such a mess, which will bring shame to his ancestors and lose his father's face!"
Qian Yiqun didn't expect Wu Sangui's reaction to be so fast, and he thought to himself: What does it mean to be full of insight? Let's talk about it again, your father surrendered to Li Chuang and was more quick than you...
"Sangui," Qian Yiqun said earnestly, "The first thing you must remember: even if you are in a desperate situation, God will leave you a way to go. The second thing: Even if you really have to surrender, you can work but not work hard. If you are in Cao's camp, your heart is in Han. Can you understand?"
Wu Sangui thought about it and said to himself: The teacher has indeed calculated that there is a disaster in my fate. Alas, since the teacher has pointed it out, how can I fall into the cage?
"Teacher, if you and I are destined to be like this, please help Sangui in the future," Wu Sangui begged.
"This is no problem. As long as I hear the news, I will come to save you even if it is thousands of miles away." Qian Yiqun said sincerely, and added in his heart: If I am late for the Taoist, I will only give you some pleasure.
Wu Sangui was still uneasy after receiving Qian Yiqun's guarantee. After he returned, he told his father Wu Xiang, and the two came to a conclusion: Even if they were rich, they would rather hold the gods tightly.
Since then, the two have been trying harder to flatter Qian Yiqun, and they really want to let Qian Yiqun do it by himself even if they don’t even dress and eat.
Qian Yiqun could not bear such service, so he simply moved to a stone mountain outside Shanhaiguan. The stone mountain was originally a Ming army post but it is now abandoned. It happened to be "occupied" by Qian Yiqun. He teased birds and deer all day long, practiced diligently, and stayed away from worldly disputes.
Wu Sangui gave him two meals, but saw Qian Yiqun not entering the water and rice. He also quietly patrolled around and did not find any filth discharged by the Taoist. He completely treated Qian Yiqun like a god. How could he know that Qian Yiqun must have to find a place with a spring climate and pleasant scenery to go to the toilet!
For example, Cuiluan Mountain.
After waiting for A Niu, Bai Feng and others to arrive at Shanhaiguan and moved into General Wu's mansion. Qian Yiqun went down the mountain to meet them.
"I thought Liaodong was sparsely populated and there were no people a hundred miles away, but I didn't expect that there were many people all the way here." Baisha sighed quite emotionally, "I have been blocked by big trucks several times. How could so many people move to Northern Xinjiang?"
Wu Sangui knew that these were all people who were related to kind-hearted gods, or they were also half-immortals, without any arrogance of the general's son. He commented: "It was indeed as Brother Bai said before, but since last year, many Jiangnan travelers came, and there were high-ranking officials in the court pleaded for them, allowing them to enter and exit the pass freely without stopping them. At that time, we still thought that the high-ranking official who was kicked by a donkey actually asked the Jiangnan people to come to Liaodong as a meticulous work. Who knew that soon a jianghu came from the Central Plains and also came out of the pass and scattered into Liaodong. These people were extremely murderous and killed when they saw the captain. Until now, we don't know who sent it."
Qian Yiqun started this daily routine in the northern country. On that day, he only told Wang Xin's family a small matter and asked them to "keep confidential". Unexpectedly, it would make them prosperous so soon. He coughed kindly and said, "The government and the military should organize them, such as inquire about news, pull out some posts, and harass the Jin Kingdom. These small things can be done by them."
"The teacher doesn't know that these people are very unacceptable and look like I am the best in the world." Wu Sangui said, "And they are indeed good at being good, but they don't know how to line up. Once they meet a large group of Jin soldiers, they will run faster than anyone else."
"You are still narrow-minded!" Qian Yiqun shook his head, took out a gold brick from the fish basket, and handed it to Fu Yuze.
Fu Yuze looked at the gold brick in a daze, not sure why.
Qian Yiqun said: "Give you a chance to show off. Now you take this gold brick to Shanhaiguan Market and say: Anyone who knows the news of 'Jianganzi' can get this gold brick. Even if you don't know, it doesn't matter. You can find out from the natives of Liaodong."
Wu Sangui slapped his forehead: "Is this like the government offers a reward?"
"Yes," Qian Yiqun said again, "If the one who is most short of today is the people who work, you let these Han families in Liaodong go out to collect the Han family in Liaodong. As for the court, the shaver will not pursue the matter. As long as they are willing to withdraw the prison, the court will give land and food. Regardless of men, women, young and old, all the rangers who can bring back five will be rewarded with one thousand martial honors."
"Wu Xun?" Wu Sangui said strangely, "What is that?"
"It is also convenient for you to know how many people there are in Liaodong." Qian Yiqun flicked the table gently, "When they save 10,000 martial honors, I will give you a general title."
"Is it an empty position in a void position?"
"Of course." Qian Yiqun smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if the general is the general, the general will be willing to give it to him."
"What if they don't believe it?" Wu Sangui always felt that it wouldn't be that simple.
"Don't believe it?" Qian Yiqun said, "When someone receives rewards, some people will believe it. Well, exchange a thousand martial arts honors for ten taels of silver, so that the effect will be faster."
How could people who can travel thousands of miles to Liaodong care about money? However, it is different to give official titles. Although the status of military personnel is low now, military officers are also officials, and they are higher than that of common people.
