When Shen Chong left the state city and returned to Dunan Beiye, it was already late at night.

With the gradual peace of Jiangdong, the curfew in Jiankang City has been gradually lifted, but since last year, it has been tightened again, and only the eastern and western cities and a few limited districts can be lifted at night.

The West Market did not fall silent with the fall of night, many restaurant pavilions and lanterns were hung high, silk and bamboo wind music was permeated, the beautiful singers, the prodigal son roared, the idlers cheered, and many noisy and noisy, because of the silence of the surrounding square area, it was contrasted with much more noisy than during the day.

The people had their own pleasures, unaware that a great crisis, a very likely upheaval that would engulf the whole city and even the whole of Koto, occurred suddenly without them noticing, and ended hastily without them noticing.

The city had already collapsed, and there were only a few thin wires scribbled between the cracks, and if even these wires were broken, the city would soon be full of turmoil and war.

Shen Chong was much more cautious on his way home than he had been in the daytime when he had broken into the state city, because it was now certain that there were some conspirators who were afraid that the situation would not be chaotic were keeping a snoop on them, so everyone in the bureau was no longer safe.

Shen Chong was covered with armor inside and outside, and his hood was tightly covered on his head, and his body was hidden in the crowd of guards. There were many guards on both sides of his journey, but none of them dared to step forward, and the order they received was to strictly prevent any idlers from rushing into the streets to block Shen Sikong's return journey.

It was not until they arrived in Changganli in Dunan that the tense atmosphere eased somewhat, and hundreds of Shen clansmen who had been waiting here for a long time rushed forward and escorted Shen Chong back to Dunan Beiye.

In the capital of the south of the industry, the lights are still bright at the moment, more than a thousand people of the Shen clan have already gathered here, and the bows and knives and other weapons have been distributed, ready to fight. In addition, many Wu villagers were anxiously waiting here, and as soon as they heard the news of Shen Chong's return, they were all busy to greet them.

On the way, in the carriage, Shen Chong had already changed his armor and drape, and at this time he got off the car with the curtain, just wearing a simple clothes and a big coat. Seeing the anxious expressions of the people gathered around, he let out a long laugh, waved his hand to the villagers and smiled: "I knew that the villagers would gather here to wait, and I should have returned home early, which is really rude." ”

Seeing Shen Chong's relaxed smile and brisk posture, the anxiety in their hearts was also relaxed, and then they hugged Shen Chong into the hall of other industries.

Before Shen Chong entered the hall, he pointed to a subordinate general and said with a smile: "Put away all the weapons in the family, go home to your own place, don't offend the guests." ”

Hearing this, everyone's hearts calmed down even more, and it seemed that the results of this negotiation were very good.

In life, whatever you feel about the outside world is centered on yourself. In the current situation in the capital, the high-status eyes look at the general trend of the situation, stand in line carefully, and the low-status ones calculate the gains and losses of the warehouse, and they are more concerned about the profits.

There have been many robberies outside the capital, but the vast majority of people only feel a little frightened, because the information is incomplete, and few people associate it with a specific conspiracy. Although the predecessor Qiu also told many Wu villagers to be vigilant and not to go out of the city casually, it is impossible to directly tell these people that some of the murderers are deliberately targeting the Wu people outside the capital.

So it wasn't until Shen Chong made a move that many Wu people realized that this was a conspiracy against them, and naturally gathered in the Shen family's other businesses, and waited until Shen Chong brought back the results of the negotiations with Taichung.

Nearly 100 people sat in the hall, and Shen Chong didn't talk nonsense, as soon as he sat down, he said: "I won't say much about what happened, I think you already know." This time, I went to the state city to report the case, and Taiwan also responded immediately, all Wuxiang travelers to and from Gyeonggi can follow the old path in the future, no longer have to choose deserted trails, and tax cards along the way will no longer be collected. At this point, some villagers have told the villagers who live in the capital at present, and they must no longer hesitate to risk their lives at the expense of their strength. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and they also faintly snickered with joy. In the past year or so, due to the loss of power of the Wu people on the central table, the life of these villagers has indeed been difficult.

Compared with those poor households who were forced to take risks and take small roads, there is no doubt that their losses are the greatest. Although it has not yet reached the level of hurting the muscles and bones, the income has declined significantly compared with previous years, so it is more nostalgic for the benefits of having Shen and other villagers on the table in previous years.

"Dare to ask Sikong, is this order in Taiwan a temporary expedient or a custom routine to restore the old state?"

Someone in the hall asked again, and the others also looked at Shen Chong after hearing this, obviously extremely concerned about this issue.

Shen Chong avoided talking about this problem, but just sighed: "Compared with the profit of goods, I am more heartbroken for the lives of the villagers. Most of the villagers here were led north by my family, and I couldn't turn a blind eye to life and death. Who did the evil, has not yet been verified, hidden dangers still exist, so what I mean is that during this period of time, the villagers should be temporarily settled here, if you have to leave the capital and return to the hometown, please be sure to come to my house to give a little notice, and my family is also a little strong to escort along the way, to ensure that the villagers return home safely. ”

"Of course, Tainai will also send guards out of the vicinity of Dujingping later to sweep away the disaster. But what is the safety of my Wu Township fathers, I can't send all the people, so I also ask the villagers here to support a little, if there is a surplus at the moment, temporarily form a force with my family, one to protect the lives of my villagers, one is to put this family business in my township, and there is the suburbs of Dasuo, investigate the traitors, and never allow my innocent villagers to suffer in vain, and the blood debt will be paid with blood! ”

When the villagers here heard this, their hearts were surging for a while, and they shouted bitterly one by one that they must be investigated to the end and severely punish the murderer! And between the words, it is already full of distrust of Taicheng.

"I wait for the villagers of Wuzhong, many of our children go north, chase after the governor of the capital to fight for Jin Zuo, recover the lost land, the blood and tears of the sons, and throw foreign countries, but for the revival of the society, the father and the elder dare not complain one or two even if they have heart-rending pain! Erlang built a wall with flesh and blood, blocking the strong enemy from the outside, but in this Jiangdong township, there are strong beams rampant, tyrannizing innocent villagers, if there is no empty voice for protection, the father is full of blood and tears and even does not know where to confide! The pain of such a cut-off is unbearable! Taicheng only made up for it after the fact, how could it comfort the public! ”

"Taifu is not competent, he should ask the governor of the capital to wave his division across the river, whip the evils of the times, rectify the countryside, drive away the fierce and evil thieves, and let the world know that my Wu people should not be insulted!"

Hearing the excited shouts of the villagers in the hall, Shen Chong was also mixed in his heart, happy that the villagers were no longer a plate of loose sand, the group was available, and even in his own opinion, it was not the best time for his son to cross the river, the nostalgia was too turbulent, and if it was out of time, it would greatly disrupt the arrangement.

He slowly stood up from the seat, raised his hand to suppress the voices of the crowd, and then sighed: "Since the fall of China and the DPRK, most of our Wu people have been regarded as the remnants of the country, and they have been frequently degraded and ridiculed, and they are not respected in the world. In the middle of the Jin Dynasty, Wang Ye came to the south, and I waited for Wu Zhong to divide the countryside and lose to the township Kuangfu Sheji to restore the Jiangbiao, and since then I can make wild words, without me, there is no country! My family is recommended by the villagers, and it is used as a social helper, and the internal is Kuangzheng, and the outside is a crusade, not to work hard, but to strengthen my Wu Sheng's spirit for the beauty! ”

"Now that Erlang is conquering the north, my Wu Sheng is no longer limited to the great river, broadcasting Zhuxia, and reaching far away to the wilderness. Viviparous upbringing, it is not easy to become an adult, who is a son, how can he bear to die in a distant country! It is difficult for the father and the old to see each other, and the wife and children look at the north number. However, the righteousness fell into the dust and fell into the dust, if it wasn't for me, Wu Zhong shouldered his arms, and looked at the universe, who could bear it? ”

"Everyone has this life, and there is no distinction between severity and severity. Wu Zhongzhuang's voice rushed out of the river and spread the power of China, which was rare in ancient times, and was famous in front of him, and it was at his fingertips. If I forcibly summon my children to return to my hometown because of the small misfortune of the local people, put aside the righteousness and tend to fight for profit, the ancient villagers will not be able to spare me! I don't dare to call myself a virtuous martyr, but for the sake of the country's voice is in line with the righteousness, what is the regret of my life! As long as I live, I will never allow the villagers to be persecuted in the slightest bit by the traitors, and I swear that there will be no contradiction with this! ”

Shen Chong's words were loud, and the ears of the villagers were even more deafening. The reason why they clamored for the Metropolitan Governor to return to preside over the situation was actually mainly because they really lacked a sense of security about the current tense situation, but after Shen Chong's generous statement, it was not good to insist on this.

And Shen Chong's words really stimulated the sense of honor in their hearts, if there was no Wu people to help, it would not be easy for those remnants of Jin Zuo to survive, let alone talk about Zhongxing.

Especially in foreign wars, it was Governor Shen who led the children of Jiangdong to fight with a knife and an arrow, and Jiangdong's fathers and elders piled up boats and ships. Before, he may have focused more on the interests of the people, but under Shen Chong's analysis, he felt that the current situation in Jiangbei was the cause of their Wu people, and it really should not be abandoned.

Of course, this is also because of Shen Chong's strong performance today, when most villagers were still ignorant, Shen Chong brazenly stepped on the court, striving for a result that although there was still a gap with their ideals, it could still be reluctantly accepted.

Therefore, after Shen Chong's strong statement, everyone gradually returned to stability, and began to discuss the specific matters of assembling for self-protection and protecting the villagers to return to their hometowns.

The discussion lasted from late at night until early in the morning, and everyone dispersed to implement the plan that had been discussed. At this time, Shen Kecai was not without worry: "Brother, do you really want Wei Zhou to come back?" After this turmoil, our control in will be greatly weakened. ”

"If you just want to dominate the country, you can come back at any time. But if you still want to preserve the situation in Jiangbei, you still lack a little righteousness. ”

Shen Chong sighed and blinked his bloodshot eyes: "Now that you have forged ahead like this, if you only want to shrink back in Jiangdong, how can you be willing!" What the righteousness wants, how can you expect that there is no danger? Even if the killing machine has started, it can only be greeted coldly. At the moment, I can't move lightly, one is not allowed in Taichung, and the other is to stabilize the hometown, you can arrange for your family to leave the capital in batches as soon as possible. Some people can't hold it anymore and want to fight with danger, and now I and the stage need to respond to maintain stability, but it is difficult to maintain this state for too long. ”

"Then in the opinion of Brother, how long can the stability be maintained?"

Shen Ke frowned again and asked.

Shen Chong glanced at Qian Feng next to him, Qian Feng also bowed slightly, and then said in a low voice: "Before spring ploughing." ”

Hearing Qian Feng's answer so firmly and accurately, Shen Ke couldn't help but be stunned, and didn't understand why such a node was determined.
