The imperial court has not yet moved on the policy of changing the punishment method to hard labor and doubling the sentence, and it is not known whether it will do so, but the absence of the amnesty has become a silent ironclad fact, and there is no doubt about it.

If you want an amnesty, you should promulgate it at the same time as announcing the change of yuan, how can you not announce it after a few months of changing the yuan........

People who are far away in Jiangzhou naturally don't know that the imperial court did not announce the change of punishment soon, not because the controversy over whether to change it is so great that it is difficult to make a decision, but because the imperial court deliberately.

Changing the sentence to imprisonment to pendulum for the crime of hard labor, even if the sentence is not extended, is tantamount to an aggravation of the punishment......

The criminals fell into the hands of the black-hearted people who were once rich and incomparably rich, but now they are terribly poor, and they are extremely frantic in order to make a fortune as soon as possible and restore their identity as a hedonistic uncle, how can they not be used to death? Life and death, honor and disgrace are all in the hands of those who use criminals, and you don't need to have a brain to figure out how miserable and hopeless it will be. It's better to go to jail and be guilty.

This change can be called cruel and inhumane. In this way, the people are frightened and dare not easily lose their temper and impulsively break the law, so how is it good? Delay in making an official announcement is tantamount to encouraging ignorant people to dare to make arrests for the trivial things that are inevitable in daily life, otherwise where will there be enough coolie to use....... The bureaucrats who have knowledge, wisdom and power, make rules, and have the absolute initiative are clever, and for the sake of interests, they are very black-bellied, and they are vicious and ruthless, and they can play the small people of the world in a fog with a little effort. No matter how wronged the people who were recruited, they couldn't explain it clearly, and they couldn't argue clearly, so they could only admit that they were unlucky........

As for Song Jiang, he came to his senses at this time, and he and his shrewd and sophisticated father made a lot of calculations, but they missed the most important point: the changes caused by the defection wave to the society of the Song Dynasty were too huge, and it was completely a fundamental subversion of the social structure of the Song Dynasty. The social structure that has remained unchanged for thousands of years has suddenly ceased to exist, the fundamental status quo of society has changed, and the conventions of the past can no longer be practiced according to the conditions and old habits that no longer exist in the past. Everything has to be based on reality....... However, he and his father did not keep up with the changes of the times, and they were limited to the insight and shrewdness of the rural villages, and they still had old ideas and old ideas in their minds.

This analysis is wrong. The court did not grant amnesty, but he was miserable.........

The bitterness in Song Jiang's heart can be imagined.

Dai Zong comforted Song Jiang and said, "Don't worry about changing to a coolie to serve a sentence. We're in a relationship. Brother Bao doesn't have to be sold as a coolie to suffer, this is still certain. ”

It's not bragging, talking big, and comforting.

It is too miserable to harm the fundamental interests of the country and the nation, and it is too miserable to pit the people, and according to the crime, 10,000 deaths are not enough to atone for the most heinous crimes, and they also have the opportunity to be released on medical parole for medical care, and even treat the disease with public funds, and the best experts....... Considerate humanitarian ..... What's more, it's taking care of a little criminal like Song Jiang. There is no difficulty for the relevant personnel to operate, for example, an excuse that is seriously ill and unfeasible is enough. How could the above notice what happened to a small prisoner in the middle of the prison camp.

Dai Zong supervised the prison camp. Song Jiang also has a good relationship with Ma Ying, who is in charge of the specific affairs of the state's judiciary, and at the same time, the people up and down the prison camp from the camp to the military guards also understand. These networks of forces worked together to let Song Jiang escape the punishment of coolies.

These forces also have the initiative to help Song Jiang, because helping Song Jiang is to protect their own benefits.

Song Jiang is equivalent to a money bag to these people, the only one. If Song Jiang became a coolie, left the prison camp, and left Jiangzhou City, it means that the bribes that these forces can enjoy are gone, how can he not be in a hurry? There is no need for Song Jiang to bother with how to escape the coolie to atone for his sins......

Song Jiang worked as a priest in the Yamen, and he was very clear about the doorway here, and he believed in Dai Zong's words, and he was not worried that he would have to be a coolie. It's nothing more than spending more money. But this did not make Song Jiang's mood better.

His most vital dream is shattered, there is no hope in life, and other things are relatively less important, it doesn't matter.........

Depressed, rethinking his life path.

Time flies, and the imperial court's policy on changing the punishment is still silent, and it may not really be implemented like that. Inherently, what people have long been accustomed to, it is not so easy for the court to change it if it wants to. This is the private view of Song Jiang and others. How can the grassroots people know the doorway above? When the imperial court suddenly officially promulgates, the little people at the bottom will suddenly realize: Oh, the original inherent rules want to be changed, and the court and the big people can change them immediately, without any difficulty, and there is no need to worry about the thoughts and habits of the small people........ But because of this, Song Jiang didn't have a sense of urgency, and he wasn't too anxious about the matter of working hard to atone for his sins. He quietly thought that since there was no drama in his serious official career, should he resolutely and decisively change to killing....... Zhao'an immediately fled Jiangzhou and returned to Shandong........ But he hesitated.

There was no doubt that there was still a hint of luck in his heart.

Maybe we can hope for amnesty?

The world has changed, but the change of the yuan is not amnesty, but it may also be that the change of the yuan is not immediately amnesty, the above weighed it, and the amnesty is only granted when it is carefully prepared.

Now in this world, there is nothing to say. Nothing is impossible........

Song Jiang thought so hard and optimistically.

And this is the sorrow of the small people..... At the bottom, you can't know anything critical in time, and you can't do anything....... There is only a passive part.

But this kind of court has not moved for a long time, and it is the most torturous. People like Song Jiang who can only passively anxious and wait for the judgment of fate, wandering left and right, are the most depressed and uncomfortable.

This kind of bad mood will eventually erupt.

Then, Song Jiang ate and drank too much alcohol alone in Xunyang Jianglou that day, full of grief and indignation, and ambitious, so he wrote anti-poems on the wall, revealing all the humiliation, anger and helplessness he had endured in Jiangzhou in the form of poems...... Although he is good friends in Jiangzhou and even invisibly controls the four tyrants, the boss's life seems to be very beautiful and face-saving, but in fact, he endures the coercion of the four tyrants, and he only has this situation by spending money, and he has to spend money generously, if there is no money, the result is ........ This makes Song Jiang, who is extremely conceited and proud in his heart, feel beautiful.

He used to manipulate and coerce others in the palm of his hand, but now he ...... How can you not hold back your resentment?

Therefore, he will write in his poems, "If he has to avenge his grievances, blood will stain the mouth of the Xunyang River!" Interested in bloodbath to take revenge on Jiangzhou....... will also write, "If he is Ling Yunzhi, dare to laugh at Huang Chao's husband!" It is clear that what he wants in his heart is to be the real boss and to control the fate of others. This other person is not only his younger brother, but even includes the whole world. Huangchao destroyed the Tang Dynasty, caused chaos in the whole world, and killed countless people in the world. That is a heroic executioner who really leads soldiers and eats people, and his humanity is gone.

So Song Jiang was unlucky, and the peaceful, comfortable and chic life in Jiangzhou, which was almost indistinguishable from normal people, came to an abrupt end.

His nemesis opponents, Huang Wenbing, and Wasp Stinger saw his poem and correctly interpreted the meaning.......

Huang Wenbing's failure to die in the tide of national rebellion and defection is not a big fate, nor is it someone who sacrificed his life to protect him when he was in danger like the prefect Cai Jiu.

He was a thorn in the office, there were too many officials who were guilty, and he was squeezed out by the officialdom at that time, and he went straight to the capital, where he was dismissed, and returned to the countryside to wander around in anger, and he was not even at home, but he happened to avoid the rebellion of the officers and soldiers....... In the disaster, Jiangzhou was looted, and too many officials in the city died, especially the civilian officials who played power and did too much evil but had no self-protection force died almost cleanly, and these officials relied on the power of the normal social order to be proud, once the government could not be transferred normally, the power and mouth lost their effectiveness, and the proud authority and life guarantee were no longer relied on, and they could only be reduced to weak chickens and dogs who were slaughtered casually in the defection frenzy.........

After the disaster, the Song Dynasty was almost universal in the whole country and there was too little government officials with local experience. There are still a lot of people who have read books and can be officials, the economic prosperity and cultural prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty are not to say, they are really rich, and the people who read are really much, after suffering the heavy disaster of pirates sweeping talents, there are still many adult scholars in the country, and many of them are still local Confucian families before the disaster, not only literate and literate, but also talk about the essence of the four books and five classics of Confucius and Mencius. However, many positions in the government are not something that can be taken up by scholars, and it will only be bad for nerds or so-called amazing talents who talk about it to be officials and take those positions. If people with no practical experience fill the positions, the local government and the government will be paralyzed...... In this critical situation, Huang Wenbing, who was too notorious in the officialdom and had no popularity, became a fragrant dumpling in a blink of an eye, and was recalled to the officialdom to continue to be the general judge of Jiangzhou without doing anything, and was invited back by the prefect Cai Jiujian three fires.

Huang Wenbing loves to provoke thorns, but he will not be stupid enough to offend the prefect of his top boss, let alone the son of the prefect of Cai Jing, the prime minister who leans towards the government and the opposition. Unless he loves to pick on thorns and loves so much that he doesn't want to live anymore.

Therefore, he and Cai Jiu have no grudges.

Cai Jiu just didn't reach out when he was unlucky, and let him, the "stinky old Jiu", be excluded from power.

Huang Wenbing is now the second-in-command of Jiangzhou, who is only in charge of the army, the people, finance, the judiciary, and all official affairs in Jiangzhou.

So, under the gaze of Huang Wenbing, who loves to pick thorns and has developed a sharp eye, Song Jiang did not escape even if he rolled in the pile of and urine, eating and pretending to be crazy, he couldn't eat, he first recruited drunk nonsense, wanted to get away with the crime, and then was punished, and finally recruited Chao Gai, who was the big thief in Erlongshan, had some old friendship with the townsman.......

That's enough.

As soon as Cai Jiu heard that it was related to the Erlong Mountain anti-thief, his eyes suddenly widened.

The grass cowards that his father hated the most were not Tian Hu and Wang Qing, who had made a big fuss and threatened Song Jiangshan's stability, but the forces of Chao Gai and Erlongshan. Shengchengang, the robber, but on the run, slapped the Cai family in the face, seriously damaged the interests of the Cai Mansion, and directly challenged the authority of the Cai Xiangfu, but he was able to continue to cause trouble and arrogance in Erlong Mountain.......

caught the key criminals who fornicated with Erlongshan, which can not only relieve the hatred that Daddy Cai Jing has held in his heart for too long, but also report to the court and make great contributions, especially at this time, the court hates traitors the most, but there is nothing to do about the pirates who hate the most, and can only try to get angry with other thieves but it is not so easy....... How can Cai Jiu not be excited and pay attention.

Song Jiang was beaten half to death, put on death row with heavy shackles, and was closely guarded.

Dai Zong was shocked, hateful and anxious about Song Jiang's trouble.

This time, there was no recruitment.

In Jiangzhou, it's not easy for anyone to ask for this.

Ma Ying, Ma Xiong, Zhang Kui, and Yuan Aiquan immediately cleared up all their relations with Song Jiang to avoid implicating themselves, and they were afraid that it would be too late, so they would reach out to help and invite trouble. Even if the righteous are willing to sacrifice their lives to help, it is useless. If you don't rob the prison and rebel, the level is too low, you can't work hard at all, and what you do has nothing to do with the established results. It was also in vain to ask the Mu brothers. The nature of Song Jiang's crime has changed, and it is not the interest relationship between Mu and Cai Jiu and the resulting face that can be done.

Therefore, Dai Zong didn't even go to ask for help from these forces in private.

The only thing he could do was to quickly dispel the panic and impatience in a vain attempt to rob the prison, but Wang Si was sent to death, and Wang Si fled to Jieyangling to urge the judge Li Lina to avoid being implicated temporarily.

Although Li Li is a gangster who opens a black shop, he is more affectionate than Zhang Kui and Ma Xiong and other villains. Song Jiang didn't give Li Li any benefits before. Li Li is also grateful and sincerely respects Song Jiang........ Wang Si can still be safe in Li Lina.

For the rest of the matter, Dai Zong could only stare dryly and wait to see how Song Jiang's follow-up affairs would develop.

Just when he was at a loss, the prefect Cai Jiu summoned him to the capital to deliver a letter, asking Cai Jing: If you want to commit Song Jiang, it is better to cut off the head directly in Jiangzhou, or to send someone to the capital to present a gift to the new emperor.

Dai Zong accepted this messenger and was overjoyed.

At this point, we can only hope that Erlong Mountain can rescue Song Jiang.

Dai Zong returned to his residence to pack his bags, and hurriedly wrote a letter to Wu Yong, asking Dai Quan and Monk Mao to leave the city quietly and rush to Erlongshan to report the news, on the one hand, to give an explanation to his friend Wu Yong about Song Jiang, lest Wu Yong say that he was not righteous. In this matter, he really has no problem, it's not that he doesn't want to help Song Jiang because he doesn't pay attention to righteousness, it's not that he doesn't take care of Song Jiang and I'm sorry for his friends. It's only Song Jiang who blames himself for his own death. On the other hand, he informed Erlongshan to quickly find a way to save Song Jiang.

Dai Quan and Monk Mao solemnly accepted the letter, according to Dai Zong's instructions, they took care of each other along the way and faced the inevitable dangers of this world, and after leaving Jiangzhou, they managed to steal a war horse or stagecoach on the road and rushed to Erlong Mountain as soon as possible. He himself ran into Beijing alone.

This is not a mythical world, there is no immortal Taoism, Dai Zong naturally does not know how to practice Taoism, and he can't travel 800 miles a day with a vest, but he does have leg skills that are different from ordinary people, and he has the ability to run a dead horse. Moreover, riding a horse has to take the regular road to have a fast convenience, and to go a long way, in the bad road conditions of this era, the horseback riding can only follow the path to detour. Dai Zong can identify the direction, go through the mountains and mountains and take a shortcut directly, which is already very time-saving, and there is also martial arts self-preservation, light body and one person, no eye-catching, you can save money and worry, and you don't have to trouble taking care of the horses.......

Dai Zong's postman advantage is especially valuable at the moment.

The government has no public funds to squander, Cai Jiu is too poor to spend a penny, and there is no money to waste on horseback to deliver letters. The road is extremely unsafe. Ordinary official messengers and postmen rode to Tokyo on horseback, and even if they formed a cavalry squad of several people, they were not sure that they would be able to reach the capital smoothly to complete the mission, and the society was so chaotic and unsafe.

Dai Zong experienced some dangers on the road, but still arrived in the capital safely and met Cai Jing.

Cai Jing read the letter and understood his son's eagerness to invite credit, but he was very calm, not the joy of being able to have the object of hatred as Cai Jiu imagined, and he was worthy of being the top thief of the contemporary era, and immediately discovered the inappropriateness of the conviction of this Erlongshan arrested by his son.

If Song Jiang is a criminal in Erlongshan, how can he honestly admit his guilt and serve his sentence in Jiangzhou, which is thousands of miles away, because of the old case of killing a cheating mother-in-law and an adulterer a few years ago? That doesn't make sense in itself. How far is Yuncheng from Erlong Mountain? Chao Gai's gang of lawless maniacs wanted to save Song Jiang, wasn't it easy? Not to mention robbing the prison to save Song Jiang, even if it is not difficult to wash the entire county in blood, it is not something that Erlongshan does not dare to do. Song Jiang's designation has something to do with Erlong Mountain, but it's not that serious. If people really understand that they will be tried and convicted in the capital and beheaded to the public, it will expose the fact that Song Jiang is not so important, not a great merit, but a crime of taking merit.......

Lao Jiu, tsk, is still not mature enough, politically naïve, born with poor qualifications, not as good as those (dead) outstanding Cai family children, helpless........

Cai Jing was sad and uncomfortable in his heart, and thought about writing a reply: "Jiangzhou will be beheaded on the spot, and the head will be sent to Beijing to repay the merits." (There is no proof of death, what you say is a great achievement)"

Dai Zong was sharp-eyed, and he vaguely saw the content of Lao Cai's reply when he didn't get close, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
