System: Congratulations to the lord for conquering the first Biao Bingqingshi-level military commander and obtaining the achievement [Biao Bingqingshi]. The reward achievement points are 5,000 points, currently 10,500 points.

System: Congratulations to the lord for conquering the first Bingshi Qingshi-level military general. The reward force is 5. The current force is 65.92. The reward feature [Fighting Will] is more focused during the battle and loses some pain sensation.

System: Congratulations to the lord for conquering a general with unparalleled characteristics. The reward is 5 force. The current force is 70.92. He has turned on his own unparalleled characteristic.

Unparalleled characteristics are locked, opening method: chance

What the opportunity was, the system didn't say.

When you talk back, it's no longer an opportunity.

As for loyalty, Jushu's loyalty is 100% because the two have had a close relationship for many years, while Zhao Yun only has 70%. The two have just met by chance and share the same aspirations. 70% is because he is grateful for helping his brother.

The remaining 30% has to be earned slowly through emotions.

"Zilong, this county lieutenant position belongs to you, but your job is not just to patrol the public security, there is a more important thing that you need to do."

"My Lord, it doesn't matter, Yun will definitely do his best."

Zhao Yun unknowingly changed his title.

"Have you traveled abroad to know about the Taiping Road?"

"Of course, Taiping Dao has been popular for many years, and those Taoists often travel to various places and often use talisman water to save people. If the rescue is successful, they say that the talisman water is effective. If the rescue is not successful, they say that the other person is not religious. How can this be done?

It makes sense, but that angle has won the hearts of the people."

Zilong is a sensible person and can see that Taiping Road is just a pretense.

"People's livelihood is very difficult, and it is a helpless move to embrace Taipingdao. However, this Zhang Jiao is extremely ambitious. I already know that he will rebel with hundreds of thousands of believers on March 5th."

Zhao Yun looked shocked, "How could my lord know about such a secret?"

"I accidentally captured his apprentice Tang Zhou. Tang Zhou was a rebellious man by nature. He was recruited before he could even extract a confession. He has been escorted to Luoyang. Within half a month, Zhang Jiao will rebel."

"In this case, we should make preparations in advance."

"That's why I want you to take the post of county captain and train the local bravery for me. I will leave the recruitment to my uncle and uncle. I will personally supervise the work and make armor and weapons for you."

"My lord has already made a plan, Yun Dan will obey his orders."

Liu Qing was in a happy mood. After several trips to Changshan, his trip to Changshan was not in vain. He smiled and said to Jushu: "My lord and uncle, I have a son, and I am very happy in my life. Why don't you take out the silver light wine and drink it together."

When Jushou heard this, he suddenly looked serious: "It's not convenient to drink during the time of duty."

Liu Qing slandered: It should be said that it is not convenient to drink in front of other people!

Zhao Yun echoed: "What the county magistrate said is absolutely true, major matters are the most important thing."

If you don’t give it, you won’t give it! You’re a prude!

It just happened that a hypocritical person met a real person.

After the work was divided, Guangping County began to operate. Liu Qing had made preparations for many years. Several workshops were quickly transformed. With Jushuo as the county magistrate, the distribution of materials was also smooth.

Jushu issued a notice, and the nearby refugees heard that Guangping County was recruiting laborers, so they came one after another. After entering Guangping County, they learned that they could sign up to join the Xiangyong Army. As long as they participated in the training, they would be able to take care of themselves.

Is there such a good thing in the world?

Isn't that equivalent to conscription into the army? To conscript into the army, you have to bribe the recruiting officer, and the food and salary earned are deducted at all levels.

So almost everyone signed up for Xiangyong, but the Xiangyong selection was very strict, and only those who were young and strong, with sound limbs and no diseases were accepted.

A few days later, refugees from surrounding Guangping County also began to pour in. For a while, the surrounding counties were confused.

Guangping was busy in full swing. At the same time, Tang Zhou was escorted to Luoyang. After seeing Jushu's document, Tingwei was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and reported it quickly.

The next day, Liu Hong made an unprecedented appearance in the morning court.

On the throne, Liu Hong's skin was swollen, his face was pale, he looked like he had overindulged himself, and his expression was extremely gloomy.

No matter how stupid the emperor is, he has zero tolerance for rebellion.

"Has the report by the Guangping County Magistrate been confirmed?" Liu Hong asked.

"I have interrogated Tang Zhou all night, and he has confessed. Zhang Jiao of Taiping Dao wants to lead an army and people from Yecheng to march to Zhending on March 5, thinking that 'the great cause can be determined', and then he will mobilize all the Taiping Dao people to march on his behalf.

Han, Taiping Road, various states and counties have all made arrangements to respond." Tingwei said tremblingly.

After serving as an official for several years, this was the first time that he encountered such a big event.

"Arrogant! Arrogant and arrogant! It's in vain that I have been so merciful and caring for the people, and let it go unchecked for several years!"

Zhongchang Attendant Feng Xueyun stepped forward tremblingly, "Your Majesty, Taiping Dao has been deeply favored by Your Majesty. He has used talisman water to save people and won the hearts of the people for Your Majesty. This must be a villain criticizing a great teacher. Please kill him quickly!"

"

Liu Hong frowned. Although he was mediocre, he was not stupid.

The time and place have been explained, so it must not be groundless.

"After hearing the order, Tingwei immediately arrested the Taiping Taoist priests in Luoyang and tortured them to extract confessions. Those who disobeyed were executed on the spot. He immediately sent people to Jizhou to capture the entire Zhang Jiao clan!" Liu Hong still gave the order.

Huang Men, who was behind Liu Hong, suddenly felt a cold wind blowing on the back of his neck. Unexpectedly, Liu Hong, who was usually dissolute and unrestrained, actually had a decisive side.

"Your Majesty!" Taiwei Yang Ci stood up and said, "Taiping Taoists are widely distributed in all states. Since Zhang Jiao is preparing for an uprising, it is best to inform all states and counties to take precautions in advance."

"There is no need for Taiwei Yang to make a fuss. If Zhang Jiao's clan is crowned the leader, the Taiping Road will be scattered and nothing will happen." Liu Hong retorted.

"Your Majesty, the Yellow Turbans are powerful and must be guarded against!"

Liu Hong was speechless and stared at him angrily. This was a warning. If he dared to say more, he would be punished.

"Your Majesty, Taiping Dao has ulterior motives. There are signs in every state and county. If they work together, it will be extraordinary. Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"

"How bold! How dare you contradict His Majesty!" Zhang Rang shouted in a dark voice, "Your Majesty, this officer should be dismissed from his post."

"Accurate!"

Yang Ci's legs went weak and he staggered back a few steps.

Liu Hong glanced at all the ministers and saw that the court hall was gloomy. He suddenly felt bored and turned to look at the yellow gate next to him.

"Is there anything new? You can bring it to the temple."

Huang Men lowered his voice, leaned into Liu Hong's ear and said, "There is something, please take a look, Your Majesty."

There was light in Liu Hong's eyes and he smiled and said, "Bring it over quickly."

Huang Men clapped his hands, and two "papa" sounds echoed in the court hall.

A young man came up from outside the hall, holding a rope in his hand. There was something unknown at the other end of the rope.

Just wearing the Jinxian crown, court clothes and ribbon, he swayed and followed the yellow gate into the court hall.

"What is this?" Liu Hong felt curious and asked with a smile.

Suddenly, the thing barked twice. Liu Hong was startled at first, then he clapped his hands and laughed, "It's a dog!"

"Hahaha, what a dog officer!"

After hearing this, all the civil and military officials in the court turned to the color of pig liver with anger. Some of the old ministers were so angry that they blew their beards and glared, but they dared not speak out in anger.

"Is there anything else? I have nothing to do but leave the court. I haven't slept enough yet!"

After the court dispersed, Liu Hong returned to the harem, and was greeted by Lu Qiang, the regular attendant.

A trace of disgust flashed in Liu Hong's eyes, and he instinctively avoided looking. Then he seemed to remember something, and allowed him to come over.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Taiping Taoist Zhang Jiao was about to plot a rebellion, so I came here to remind your Majesty."

"Just say what you want to say." Liu Hong said impatiently.

I won't listen anyway.

What Lu Qiang could say was nothing more than scolding traitors and sycophants, Ren Zhongliang, Baofu Fu, Huanongsang, open-minded people, etc. Liu Hong's ears became calluses listening to them.

I feel annoyed when I see him. If I hadn't seen that he had been loyal throughout his life, he would have been demoted long ago due to his advanced age.

"Your Majesty, Taiping Taoists not only exist in Kyoto, but there are also many within the palace walls."

Liu Hong frowned, "You mean Feng Xu?"

As Lu Qiang said, Liu Hong also knew that among the many ministers, there were indeed several who believed in Taiping Dao.

"Don't you think those slaves dare to harm me?"

"Your Majesty, please take a closer look!" Lu Qiang knelt down tremblingly.

"Get up!" Liu Hong shook his head to stop him, "I don't believe they have such courage. Without me, they would be worse than dogs!"

"Your Majesty—" Lu Qiang knelt on the ground, motionless.
