Wen Qing came here specifically to find the scholar. She counted the time, and in the original book, the scholar entered the barracks around this time. And this time when the recruits entered the camp, she happened to be away, so she came to find someone now.
She was lucky, she met the rightful owner as soon as she arrived here.
The young man called Scholar, with delicate features and delicate features, is thin and a little weak. At first glance, he looks like a scholar who can't lift his hands on his shoulders and resist. It's really not someone who can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. The client's wish is to keep him alive, and repay his kindness in the previous life by the way. It's not difficult, it's very easy to protect him with her current ability, and then ask him what his wish is, whether he wants to make contributions or glorify his ancestors, and it's almost enough to help him.
The people in the new barracks became nervous when they saw her coming, not knowing why she came here suddenly. Wen Qing looked dignified, but asked kindly, "They call you a scholar? Have you ever studied?"
The scholar was a little embarrassed, nodded and said, "Yes, I have read the Four Books and Five Classics."
"Can you write?"
"meeting."
"Exactly, there is a lack of a document in Bendu's place, so come here."
The scholar was stunned, he couldn't believe that such a good thing happened to him! What are the documents? Is it okay to write official documents and complete books in the tent, instead of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and just stay in the rear? What a stroke of luck!
A group of people looked at him with envious, jealous and hateful eyes, and with just one word from the governor, this kid would have reached the sky in one step, and he didn't have to go to the battlefield to die, what luck! But they also know that this is not something to be envious of. Scholars are scholars who have this opportunity. They are all vulgar people who can't read a single word, and they can't do it even if they are asked to do paperwork!
The scholar was hit by a huge surprise, and he was dizzy. Although he promised his mother and sister before leaving home that he must return alive, he also knew that he would be close to death if he went to the battlefield. If it wasn't for his mother's illness, he would never have come here. He has fame and fame, and he can be exempted from corvee. He only has to wait for a few years of hard study, and he will be named on the gold list, and he will have a bright future. However, his mother's illness could not wait, so he had no choice but to choose the most dangerous path.
Unexpectedly, when he first entered the camp, he would meet a nobleman, and he would be transferred to a civilian post. In this way, he would keep his own place, and he might not be able to wait until he returned home safely.
Lin Zhixing was grateful and respected Wen Qing who promoted him even more.
Seeing that he couldn't let go, Wen Qing joked, "Relax, I don't know how to eat people. What's your name?"
The scholar quickly clasped his fists and replied, "Master Governor, my surname is Lin, and my name is Zhixing."
"Lin Zhixing? Yes, who else is at home?"
"There is a loving mother on the top, and a younger sister on the bottom."
Wen Qing then pretended to be surprised and said, "Are you the only man? Then what about your widowed mother and younger sister who are now in the army?"
Lin Zhixing forced a wry smile, "Don't dare to lie to the governor, my mother is seriously ill, and I have no other way to join the army, only for two taels of silver to save my life."
"So that's how it is," Wen Qing suddenly realized, "Since that's the case, why don't I let you go home?"
Lin Zhixing couldn't believe it, and stared at her face trying to find the shadow of a joke, but he couldn't find anything, and the other party was talking to him very seriously.
Lin Zhixing was indeed a little moved. His mother was seriously ill and his younger sister was still young, so he couldn't rest assured anyway. It would be great if I could go back...
However, Lin Zhixing finally rejected Wen Qing's proposal, "Thank you, Lord Governor, for your kindness. Although Zhixing is not talented, he also knows the four words of propriety, righteousness and shame. The salary of eating the king is for the king to share the worries. Do your part, otherwise what is the difference between you and an ungrateful villain?"
Wen Qing also knew that he was proud, so he followed him, but lent him a hundred taels of silver in his own name, and asked him to send it home. This time Lin Zhixing didn't refuse. Although he couldn't go back, he still had to arrange his family's life well.
After arranging the scholar, Wen Qing recruited his confidants to come over to discuss what happened tonight.
"Director, the general will definitely attack you tonight, we have to guard against it!"
"Li Ang's wolfish ambitions are clearly revealed. He will definitely keep us here before he enters the capital! The emperor is far away, and he will find any reason in front of the Holy One, so why not just let him talk nonsense?"
"That's right, instead of sitting still and waiting for death, it's better for us to strike first!"
Several people chattered in low voices, Wen Qing listened calmly, and waited for them to finish before asking, "Then according to your opinion, how should I protect myself? First strike is the first to be strong? A dignified general, I If you kill him, how can you not blame the Holy One?"
There was silence in the tent, and after a while there was a loud voice, "Why doesn't the governor make himself king?"
As soon as he said a word, everyone in the room was shocked.
Wen Qing looked up, and it was Sun Chaoyun who was talking. This man joined her only a year ago. He is courageous, resourceful, and courageous, but he is relatively low-key. Sincerity is as high as 94, she will not notice him.
The system formulated a strategy for her to attack the emperor, but she completely missed it. The counselor became a general, let alone the branch line of subduing maids and eunuchs. Tolerance... Anyway, she is the master of the system, and there is no punishment if she breaks it.
I can notice Sun Chaoyun because the system shows that his heartfelt value is above 90, which is within the scope of diehard loyalty. The reason was because she had killed a prince from the Yi tribe, and that prince had killed Sun Chaoyun's elder brother, so he felt that she had avenged him, so he decided to follow her to the death, and Wen Qing would not refuse anyone who came.
Sun Chaoyun said why not make himself a queen. There was silence in the big tent, and no one spoke. Sun Chaoyun said again, "Everyone here is not clear about the current state of the court. In the north, there is Xiang's army supporting himself, and in the northwest, there is Mujia Village. The peasant uprising, the so-called peaceful and prosperous times are just wishful thinking of the royal family. The people are overwhelmed, and sooner or later there will be riots, and the building will collapse. Why can't we act first?"
"Everyone can see Li Ang's virtues. He kills people like hemp, and he doesn't care about human life at all. Two of my fellow countrymen who joined the army with me died at his hands." At this point, Sun Chaoyun sneered, "It's ridiculous. We didn't die in the hands of the enemy on the battlefield, but were killed by our own people! Killing a person is like a child's play, and it all depends on his own pleasure. It's not that the court didn't know about his things, but he just opened his eyes. Just turn a blind eye, there is no reason to lose a great general for the sake of a few worthless lives. Are you willing to endure this kind of general and this kind of court?"
"I don't want to!"
The rest of the people were aroused by him, and roared with red eyes.
Sun Chaoyun turned his attention to Wen Qing again, waiting for her answer. Wen Qing was silent for a long time, until other people also persuaded her, she finally agreed with a look of reluctance, "Okay! I agree." The same goes for acting. This technical job, Wen Qing gave way again, and finally Sun Chaoyun took the lead in proclaiming him the new king.
The others were so excited that they couldn't contain themselves. Once their desires were opened up, it would all be logical without further ado. To become a king and lose a bandit is to become rich in one step, and to lose is just a life.
Wen Qing and Sun Chaoyun looked at each other, conveying something that only the two of them could understand.
For the celebration banquet in the evening, Wen Qing had already prepared for it, and gave Li Ang and the others a trick to get rid of them all.
Wen Qing's reputation in the army was extremely high, and once Li Ang died, she became the supreme ruler. The soldiers at the bottom didn't know about the affairs of the upper echelon, and only a few confidants knew about Wen Qing's plan to become king, and it hadn't been officially spread out yet. When asked by her subordinates, she only said that the time hadn't come yet.
Two days later, the soldiers drawing water found a goldfish in the river. The fish was covered with golden scales, shining brightly, and it was very extraordinary at first glance. But what was even more surprising was that the goldfish spit out a stream of brocade silk from its mouth, and then disappeared.
The soldier was amazed, and hurriedly fished out the brocade, opened it and saw that there were four characters written on it-Chen Ming Dexing.
Chen dead? Doesn't that mean that Da Chen died? It is related to the rise and fall of the family and the country, and no one does not care, so this strange thing immediately spread among the soldiers.
"Chen's death means that Da Chen is going to die, so what is Dexing?"
"Our governor's real name is Shen Youde, you are virtuous, you are virtuous, could it be..."
Soon, Wen Qing issued an injunction to stop discussing this matter. But the more this kind of thing is forbidden, the faster it spreads. Within a few days, even the people in the south know the word Chen Sheng Dexing. Later, together with the vision of the goldfish uttering words, it spread across the country like a plague.
Another night, sharp-eyed soldiers saw a golden dragon looming above their governor's head, and when they got close, they could even hear the sound of the dragon's chant. Now it is even more confirmed that the governor is the real dragon emperor, who was born in response to the destiny, and his vitality is exhausted.
Not to mention, half a month later, a golden elephant suddenly appeared on the ground in the martial arts arena, wearing a dragon robe, wearing a crown, holding a seal in one hand, and a scroll in the other, solemn and majestic.
As soon as this miracle happened, everyone knelt down and worshiped, shouting "Long live my emperor".
After taking a closer look at the golden elephant, they found that the face and facial features of this statue were exactly the same as their governors, but the difference was that the golden elephant looked like a woman at first glance, which made people puzzled.
It was Sun Chaoyun who discovered the words engraved on the scroll held by Jin Xiang. He stepped forward to look at it, and then said in a quiet but very clear voice, "The heroine of the world..."
When later generations commented on this period of history, they all evaluated Empress Wende as the queen of routines.
