Valley Emperor

It is rare to meet a genuine scholar. Such a high-end talent cannot be let go. Even if he is unwilling to make suggestions for the Tang Dynasty, it is good for him to teach the children in Huangzhu Mountain.

Today's Tang Dynasty really lacks people who can read and write. Otherwise, those who can only read and write a few commonly used characters will become officials one by one.

However, although this Yang Xiucai is also important, Li Xuan does not intend to waste too much time on him, playing a solicitation game that lasts for a year and a half. This person is not Zeng Ziwen, who has rich military theory. Important military talents who can make the new army of the Tang Dynasty quickly get on the right track.

It wasn't worth Li Xuan spending so much energy on recruiting, so he planned to use a simpler and more straightforward method to directly take people away, and even risked the lives of the Yang family in order to make him submit more quickly.

Yang Xiucai didn't stay in the small building for a long time before being kicked out, and then taken by Qian Mengjiu to an ear room.

Qian Mengjiu threw him a lot of documents and said, "Yang Langzhong, you should deal with these documents first, and I will tell you about other things later!"

Hearing Yang Langzhong's name, Yang Xiucai couldn't help but twitch at the corners of his mouth. Li Xuan didn't give him any chance to object, and just forcibly assigned him an official position as the military officer of the Ministry of War.

After Qian Mengjiu finished speaking, seeing Yang Xiucai's worried look, he thought he was worried about his family, and immediately said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to go back in the next two days, but don't worry, your family will be fine, and this official will instruct someone. Arrange them and we'll take them with us when we leave!"

"What, they will be taken away too?" At this time, Yang Xiucai finally spoke, with panic in his words.

By now, Yang Xiucai knew very well that unless he was killed by a head-on collision, it would be difficult to get rid of the so-called 'Langzhong' forced by these pseudo-Tang thieves.

But he was forced to do things for the bandit army, but his family couldn't be contained by him, let alone in the fake Tang bandit army with him, he immediately said: "Mr. Please spare the family below!"

However, Qian Mengjiu did not answer him directly, but said: "Yang Langzhong can do things with confidence, Your Majesty Shengming will definitely not treat me and other ministers badly, and Yang Langzhong should pay attention to the name in the future. A warrior heard it, I'm afraid it won't end well!"

Qian Mengjiu naturally would not promise Yang Xiucai, let alone promise him to spare their family members and take the Yang family along with him. This was an important step to coerce Yang Xiucai to serve the Tang Dynasty.

If you only bring Yang Xiucai, what if this Yang Xiucai does not work hard and does not work hard? Or what if you simply want to escape or commit suicide?

Without his family as a threat, it is impossible for this Yang Xiu to do things for the Tang Dynasty willingly, so it is very necessary to take his family as hostages.

However, after seeing Qian Mengjiu's firm attitude, Yang Xiucai also changed his mind and said to Qian Mengjiu: "My old father is very old, and the young ones are still young, and the women also have their feet bound. They are afraid that they can't bear the journey, and they also asked Qian to take care of them and let them stay, and I will bring the cheap to accompany the army!"

Hearing this, Qian Mengjiu hesitated for a while before saying, "Your father and your younger brother's family can stay, but your husband and wife and children must go together!"

That old man was so old, he would probably die after a few days of walking with the army, and it would be a burden to bring along. Maybe he would have the courage to let Yang Xiucai's heart be broken after he died.

As for Yang Xiucai's younger brother and a family of three, it's better to take it than nothing, and it's nothing if you don't take it. Anyway, Yang Xiucai's wife and a pair of children are there, so I'm not afraid that Yang Xiucai won't give in.

If Yang Xiucai didn't even care about the lives of his wife and daughter, it would be useless to threaten the lives of his younger brother's family.

Hearing Qian Mengjiu's words, Yang Xiucai wanted to argue a few more words, trying to make his daughters stay, but at this time Qian Mengjiu ignored him and went out directly.

Looking at Qian Mengjiu who went out, Yang Xiucai sighed deeply. The development of today was beyond his imagination. He imagined that his wife and daughter would be ruined, and he imagined that his family would be killed and silenced. , but did not expect that these Huangzhushan bandits actually wanted to serve them by themselves.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry again. If the court knew that he was working for the bandit army, what would his family do?

No, there must be another way to do this!

Yang Xiucai, who was in a mess, didn't have the heart to deal with these so-called official documents. After thinking hard for a long time, he finally dared to ask Qian Mengjiu who was handling official business next door.

Seeing him, Qian Mengjiu raised his head and asked, "I have already arranged for someone to deliver food and clothes to your family. What's the matter?"

Immediately, Yang Xiucai said, "Mr. Qian, I have an unkind request from the young!"

"Speak!" Qian Mengjiu said, "As long as it's not a big deal, this official can call the shots for you!"

Yang Xiucai said: "Please also ask the adults to help the young man forge a death certificate!"

"Do you want to pretend to be dead?" Qian Mengjiu stared at him for a long time, and now he also guessed what Yang Xiucai was thinking, but he was afraid that the court would know that he was doing things for the Tang Dynasty, and then anger his family.

Isn't it just pretending to be dead or even changing his name? It's not a big deal. It's not that the Tang Dynasty did not do it. Zeng Ziwen surrendered and became the war secretary of the Privy Council. For the safety of Zeng Ziwen's family~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Tang Dynasty never announced that Zeng Ziwen was still alive.

He also changed his name to Zeng Ziwen, from Zeng Ziwen to Li Congwen, in order to confuse the Ming Dynasty officials outside, but this name change is only on official documents and external names.

Now that Yang Xiucai is going to pretend to be dead or even change his name, it's not a big deal. Qian Mengjiu immediately said, "Well, this official will order someone to deal with it!"

While Qian Mengjiu and Yang Xiucai were talking, Li Xuan and Zeng Ziwen or Li Congwen in the small building were writing and drawing on a pair of simple maps drawn by hand.

"Your Majesty, according to the report of the reconnaissance cavalry in the morning, a Ming army patrol was found twenty miles south of Yangjia Village, with a number of about fifty!" Zeng Ziwen wrote down a Ming army on the map. The sign of the army, and at the same time kept saying:

"According to the movement of the Ming army, it is very likely that they came from Zhengtai County. Coupled with the two Ming army patrols we discovered two days ago, now we have seen three waves of Ming army!"

Li Xuan frowned and murmured, "What do they want to do?"
