Chapter 497: Victory and Defeat

But Zhao Zhen listened to Wei Fuliang's words and said: "Although it is a serious illness, it is not incurable. The [miracle doctor] in the state is safe and has excellent medical skills. Magistrate Wei, please stay in the village for two days, and I will invite him I’ll treat you.”

Wei Fuliang heard this and quickly thanked him.

Zhao Zhen sent people to the city to ask for safety.

After a while, An Daoquan came hand in hand with Bai Duo and Bai Zhang. After the ceremony, An Daoquan looked at Wei Fuliang who was coughing from time to time and asked, "Ms. sir, is this man treating illnesses?"

Zhao Zhen nodded and introduced several people.

All three people stepped forward and checked Wei Fuliang's pulse. The young man behind Wei Fuliang asked eagerly: "Fellow doctors, can my father's disease be cured?"

Bai Duo spoke first: "In my opinion, the old man suffers from the combination of phlegm and Qi. His emotions are sluggish and ups and downs, causing the liver qi to be loose. The liver qi invades the spleen and stomach, and the spleen and stomach lose their ability to transport and metabolize. The body fluid cannot be transported and condenses into phlegm. When phlegm and qi accumulate in the throat, expectoration often occurs. You can choose a prescription to relieve stagnation, regulate qi and resolve phlegm. First use Qingqi Huatan Pills to relieve the external symptoms, and then use Bupleurum Shugan Pills to treat the internal symptoms.”

After speaking, Bai Duo looked at An Daoquan.

An Daoquan said: "I'm afraid that your husband has already used this prescription."

Wei Fuliang said: "Yes, this prescription has been used before. It was fine at first, with slight relief, but then it stopped working."

An Daoquan said: "If you were the first to see a doctor for your illness, this prescription would be able to cure it. But later on, you had improper daily life, exogenous evil qi, poor lung qi dispersion, and phlegm stuck in the throat. The two symptoms were combined into one." Difficult to treat.”

"Yes, I remember that my father often sighed at the moon in the courtyard late at night in winter." Hou Sheng said.

Wei Fuliang also said: "That's what the doctor said at the time. He used prescriptions to dispel external evils, clear the lungs and resolve phlegm. He used cough pills at first, and then Juhong pills. But it didn't work, so he asked a famous doctor to use it. They are Qingqi Huatan Pills and Bupleurum Soothing Gan Pills.”

An Daoquan said: "You have been suffering from phlegm cough for too long, and the treatment cannot be done in a day. I will prescribe a dose of Dai Hai Powder combined with Shen Ling Baizhu Powder plus or minus, and treat it first. When autumn comes, the pears will ripen. My husband, take three [Huoyang Dates] here, take one pill every day, and the disease will be cured.”

Wei Fuliang heard this and quickly thanked him.

An Daoquan said: "Your illness is not entirely due to me. My prescription can only alleviate it. It all depends on my husband's [Huoyang Zao] attack."

After hearing this, Wei Liangfu stood up and thanked Zhao Zhen again.

That night, a banquet was inevitably held in honor of Wei Fuliang.

On the second day, Wei Fuliang asked for an order to take up a post in Zhongdu County. Before leaving, he even left his eldest son Wei Sheng in Liangshan County and asked Zhao Zhen to arrange his duties.

As for Wei Sheng, the eldest son of Wei Fuliang, his attributes are almost the same as those of the sons of Xu He and Kong Hou. Among Liangshan juniors, literary talent is also considered to be at the top of the list.

Wei Sheng asked Xiao Rang to take him away and train him in the state starting from the clerical level.

As for Xu He in Zhongdu County, Zhao Zhen ordered him to be transferred to Sishui to take charge of Xianyuan's political affairs. In addition, there is another thing, that is, Peng Qi, who was recuperating in Surabaya, came to join us.

In Bianjing City, Zhao Zhen's petition for capturing Gaomi and Anqiu was also delivered from the General Affairs Department to the emperor's palace.

When the emperor saw the document reporting the victory, he said to Hou Meng, who was promoted to the imperial censor, "It seems that the Qingzhou thief is going to fall on this Zhao Ze."

"The former has recovered three counties. The Taiwei believes that Mizhou has not accomplished all the work and cannot reward him greatly. Now that he has recovered the entire territory of Mizhou, he has also dragged the Qingzhou thieves to Ye County for reward."

Hou Meng said: "I'm afraid that the Taiwei will refuse tomorrow on the grounds that the Qingzhou thieves have not been eliminated and there is no reward."

The emperor frowned and asked, "Why is this?"

Hou Meng said: "In the official family, in the three-pronged campaign of suppression, only Zhao Ze has the most credit. He came from a rough background and relied on suppressing the Qingzhou bandits to get where he is today. He is neither a member of the Taiwei's family nor a member of the imperial examination. Now he occupies one of the three states. Oh my god, some people have been jealous for a long time."

The emperor heard this and said: "The land of the three states is indeed too much. Why doesn't the Ministry of Rites send officials there?"

Hou Meng said: "Song Jiang's group broke through the prefectures and counties, regardless of the crime, and all the officials were executed. Yizhou, Mizhou, and even Laizhou all faced the Qingzhou bandit army. As a result, few people dared to go. Most refused to accept the offer due to illness. . Only one Wei Hulin took the job and went to Yizhou. "

"I heard that Zhao Ze married the daughter of Cheng Wanli of Dongping Mansion? Is this Cheng Wanli a disciple of Privy Council Tong?"

"Yes, when Zhao Fang envoy was promoted from county magistrate to prefecture, most of the land under his jurisdiction was allocated from Dongping Prefecture. Weng and his son-in-law were adjacent to each other, and the boundaries were still the same size as Dongping Prefecture. In the past few days, someone has written a letter, planning to change Dongping Prefecture again. Go back to Yunzhou," Hou Meng replied.

"I also support this. Although Zhao Ze has no objection, the court must take precautions."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded slightly and asked, "What do you mean by serving as censor?"

"You can have high officials and generous salaries, and you can give more gold, silver and beauties, but you can't send more people. The position can be high, but the power cannot be heavy." Hou Meng said.

"In order to wipe out the Qingzhou bandits in the future, it would be best if we can recruit them to go to Huaixi and Jiangnan. If not, it would be best to transfer them away from Jingdong and Jingdong. This will save another prince who will listen to the instructions but not the propaganda."

On the second day of the court meeting, all the ministers in the Wende Palace worshiped, danced on the mountain, and chanted. The emperor took out Zhao Ze's memorial and asked all officials to discuss it.

When Gao Qiu saw it, he believed, as Hou Mengduo said, that the Qingzhou thieves would never be wiped out. These prefectures and counties were just abandoned by the Qingzhou thieves intentionally and were not worthy of a heavy reward.

The emperor said: "What the Taiwei said is reasonable. However, if you don't reward meritorious service, it will only affect the morale of the army. Although it is difficult to give more famous names and gold and silverware, we must choose more good ones and send them."

"Of the six counties of Dongping Prefecture, there are currently only three counties: Xucheng, Dong'a, and Pingyin. The Zhengshitang has written a letter and plans to demote it to Yunzhou. What do you think?"

Taishi Cai came out and said: "Your Majesty, Dongping Prefecture has been split into two. It is no longer an important military town and has been demoted to a state. The points are appropriate."

The chief officials of each government office also responded one after another.

Eventually Dongping Prefecture was downgraded to Yunzhou.

As for the reward for Zhao Ze in Liangshan, the emperor asked the Zhengshitang to draw up a generous reward for his eyesight.

After discussing these two matters, a colleague of the Privy Council came forward and said: "Your Majesty, Privy Council Tong sent people to announce the victory, captured Lingchuan and Gaoping, and killed Dong Cheng and Shen Ji, subordinates of Niu Wenzhong, the pseudo-Privy Councilor of Gaizhou Prefecture. , Zhang Li, Zhao Neng. The siege of Huixian and Wushe has been resolved, and now a large army is surrounding the state capital."

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but feel happy.

The ministers, led by Taishi Cai, congratulated: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for winning consecutive battles in Qingzhou and Hebei, wiping out the rebels, bringing peace to the world, and reviving the prosperous age."

The Emperor said: "If there are meritorious service members in the privy envoys, please prepare detailed reports to report to the imperial court. As soon as the generals and assistants are returned to the capital, they will be promoted and appointed based on their merits."

You Zhengyan, Chen Jin, came out of the squad and said: "Your Majesty, if you win the first battle, you should enjoy it with the people, and you can grant a general amnesty to the world, so that the people can bathe in the emperor's grace."

The Taiwei Chen Zongshan in front of the palace came out and said: "No, Your Majesty will forgive me. Only after the rebellion has been put down can we show the power of the Holy One to the world."

"Good." The emperor said.

"Tong Guan and Zhao Ze have meritorious service. In addition to being rewarded, they will also be given an ocher yellow robe and a gold belt to show their merit."

After the dispersion of the dynasty, Gao Qiu did not return to the government office, but followed Cai Jing back to the Taishi Mansion.

After seeing the ceremony, Gao Qiu said: "Grand Master, this Liangshan Zhao Ze is very rude. The official documents are not sent to me, but sent directly to the General Affairs Department."

Hearing this, Cai Jing put down the tea cup in his hand and said, "I said last time that Zhao Ze is a villain. Most of the people he recruits are desperate people. From this point of view, he is by no means a peaceful person. He Your majesty asked you to designate a reward for your merits. How can he take this kind of wealth into his eyes? He must still be resentful of you, so how can he hand over the official document to you first?"

Gao Qiu said: "Wang Jin, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and others who I had fallen behind all gathered under his command. I gave him hints to drive these people away, but he refused to respond. In order to make him eat some I'm sorry. Who would have thought this guy could be so hateful?"

Cai Jing said: "This guy is always a member of Tong Guan's family. He is always in trouble and will be difficult to meet in the future. That [green-faced beast] Yang Zhi, I have long known that he is hiding in Liangshan. He has lost his birth date, but now he has to do it for This effort to conquer the Qingzhou thieves can be regarded as a sacrifice of merit."

Gao Qiu said: "Of course I know what Grand Master means, and I don't pay attention to these warriors. It's just Zhao Ze's attitude that really makes me unhappy."

Cai Jing said: "As I said, Qingzhou Songjiang has been eradicated. No one cares about Zhao Ze's life or death anymore. If it's convenient, a glass of poisonous wine can kill him. However, this person has always been cautious and never travels. They all have full bodyguards, and there are more sergeants accompanying them than I, the grand master."

"Eradicating the Qingzhou thieves is the most important thing now. Speaking of which, I only lost some money, not as much as the Taiwei who lost his brothers and family members. Now some people are afraid that crossing the Song River to the north will cause endless troubles in the future, so they advocate recruiting this guy."

Gao Qiu was furious after hearing this: "Whoever dares to slander you will be beheaded."

Cai Jing waved his hand and said: "Who else could it be besides Su Yuanjing? I'm afraid this guy has contact with Song Jiang. It doesn't matter. Now that good news is spreading frequently, the official family has no intention of recruiting people. But it can't be delayed. If it takes too long, if the officials repeat themselves, it will be even more difficult for Jingdong to try to harm him again. For the current plan, we still have to urge all the sergeants to move forward. ”

Gao Qiu said: "Hu Yanzhuo has a good reputation. He only won two battles and was ambushed by Qingzhou. He lost his troops and generals. Now he has no new achievements. My brother Gao Lian is very talented, but unfortunately he is trapped in the terrain. So far, Can't cross the river."

"Grand Master, in my opinion, it is better to mobilize another army to support. It does not require many troops, just an elite force, to attack Qingzhou from Yizhou. In this case, Song Jiang will definitely not dare to put his foot down. Qingzhou ignored it and defended Laiwu."

"Where is this elite army still available?"

"In Dongchang Prefecture, which is adjacent to Gaotang Prefecture, there is a fierce general in the city. His surname is Zhang and his given name is Qing. He was originally from Zhangde Prefecture. He was a tiger rider. He was good at flying rocks and hitting people. He hit hundreds of shots and was called Featherless Arrow. His subordinates Two lieutenants: one is called [ Hua Xianghu Gong Wang, who has tiger spots tattooed all over his body and a tiger head on his neck, will immediately fly his spear. One is called [Zhongjianhu] Ding Desun, who has scars on his cheeks and neck and will immediately fly. Fork. How about this army?”

"You can only mobilize three to five thousand people from left to right, which is within your authority. Tomorrow the envoy will recommend him." Cai Jing said nonchalantly.

"It's just that if you want to pass through Yizhou, you still need Zhao Ze's cooperation..."

The two were discussing secretly when Li Duguan knocked on the door and came in. He saluted and said, "Master, the governor of the Taiwei Mansion said he is from Qingzhou, looking for the Taiwei."

After hearing this, Cai Jing said: "Since the Taiwei has something to do, we will discuss it another day."

"No, since he is from Qingzhou, he must be involved in Qingzhou thieves, and the grand master happens to be the counselor together. Just bring him here." Gao Qiu said.

Seeing Cai Jing nod, Li Du took charge and soon took the two of them with him.

After seeing the ceremony, Gao Qiu asked: "The king is in charge, what's the matter?"

Wang Duguan pointed to another person and said: "This is a confidant of Gaozhi Prefecture, who came to deliver an urgent letter. I checked the letter and confirmed that it is correct. I did not dare to delay and brought him to see the Prime Minister."

After hearing this, the man quickly took out a letter from his arms and raised it above his head.

Li Duguan took the letter and sent it to Gao Qiu.

Gao Qiu read the lacquer seal and then unfolded the letter. As soon as he read the letter, he was stunned.

Cai Jing saw him and said, "Taiwei?"

Gao Qiu handed the letter in his hand to Cai Jing and said: "Grand Master, the naval army has been defeated."

Cai Jing read the letter, but he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lieutenant, it's just that Niu Bangxi's ship is gone. Liu Menglong's fleet is intact. How can you be so surprised?"

Gao Qiu said: "Grand Master, if you look carefully, you will see that Qingzhou thieves can fire cannons in the water. Less than half of the fleet led by Niu Bangxi was sunk by mines, and the rest jumped into the water and scattered. This resulted in the entire fleet being destroyed." It’s Liu Menglong who is here, I’m afraid he can’t defeat the enemy.”

After saying that, he looked at the kneeling sergeant on the ground and asked, "Gao Lian, is there anything else I would like you to bring?"

The man hesitated to speak, and Gao Qiu said angrily: "We are all our own people, just say what you say."

The man said: "Zhizhou asked the villain to take the lead. He plans to attack Qingzhou from Boxing and will not wait for Liu Menglong's fleet. I hope the captain will be careful."

Gao Qiu nodded: "Okay, I understand. Just ask Gao Lian to do it without worrying. I am in the court." After that, he said to the king: "You go and reward him yourself, and then come back quickly."

Everyone said goodbye, and Gao Qiu said to Cai Jing: "Master, this Niu Bangxi was recommended by me, and now he died at the hands of thieves in Qingzhou. There are good news everywhere, but this one is useless, and he died. The officials are happy, so what? Talk to the officials?"

After hearing this, Cai Jing pondered for a moment and said to Gao Qiu: "Tomorrow I will just say that the wind and waves in the Yellow River have suddenly gathered. Niu Bangxi was sailing a boat in the river, and the boats he was sailing were all overturned by the wind and waves. He died in a royal incident. "
