They were only thinking about guarding against Tian Hu and Wang Qing.
"General Xu is right,"
"Then please, brother, accompany us westward."
"Then they were stationed in Jingzhao Prefecture."
The army did not rest in Xijing.
The next day, the 50,000-strong army marched westward.
They traveled for another seven days.
They then arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture.
Jingzhao Prefecture is Xi'an.
It is known as "the city surrounded by eight rivers".
The grain and fodder were transported along the Wei River to Jingzhao Prefecture.
Then it was transported to Weizhou via the Jing River.
Jingzhao Prefecture was the seat of Yongxing Army.
The highest-ranking official, the prefect, was also the military governor of Yongxing.
Ren Liang, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, was one of the few capable ministers during the reign of Emperor Huizong.
Ren Liang lost his father at the age of nine.
His uncle planned to have his mother remarry.
Ren Liang clutched his mother's clothes and cried.
"Where is there a son who cannot feed his own family?"
His mother was moved.
She then gave up the idea of remarrying.
Ren Liang became even more diligent and eager to learn from then on.
At only fourteen years old, he was already the most outstanding person in the village.
Later, when he took the imperial examination...
It is also among the top.
He was appointed as the Prefect of Henan.
Later, he used military strategy to seek the assistance of Zeng Bu, the Privy Councilor.
Zeng Bu sent someone to invite him to the palace.
The two talked for a while,
Ren Liang felt that their political views differed.
He then left on his own.
When Zeng Bu served as prime minister,
They also plan to use Ren Liang.
Ren Liang, however, sent him a letter.
He used the case of Li Deyu to persuade Zeng Bu not to form factions in the court.
Zeng Bu saw that Ren Liang was so ungrateful.
Naturally, he harbored resentment.
Chapter 1820 A Good Official
Later, someone recommended Ren Liang to be the editor.
Zeng Bu then suppressed their memorials and refused to issue them.
Ren Liang was appointed as a professor in Huaizhou.
Later, it was Emperor Huizong who saw Ren Liang's "New Learning Stele".
He was then promoted to Supervisor of Education in Kuizhou.
He served as an official in western Beijing, Hebei, and eastern Beijing, before being reassigned as a transport commissioner.
Author of "The Fundamentals of Hebei",
All increases and decreases in household registration,
The increase or decrease of officials,
And the amount of annual income, expenditure and surplus,
The book is presented to the imperial court.
Zhang Shangying, a high-ranking official in the court, saw this book.
He then praised Ren Liang as the most outstanding among all the envoys of the world.
Ren Liang had some connection with Liangshan Marsh.
In his early years, he served as a prison inspector in Jingdong.
At that time, the fishermen by Liangshan Marsh took advantage of the complex terrain of the marshland.
They frequently plundered in the marshes.
The authorities found it difficult to arrest them.
After a thorough investigation, Ren Liang
Many of the thieves were found to be fishermen from the marshland.
So the fishermen were grouped into five households.
Engraved on their ship,
Otherwise, you are not allowed to enter the water area.
The water areas were clearly divided.
The responsibilities of each county are clearly defined.
Theft occurred.
Ren Liang then urged the local officials and constables,
Because the responsibilities are clearly defined,
In addition, all fishing boats are categorized.
As a result, quite a few fishermen who were thieves were arrested.
Ren Liang was then promoted to Transport Commissioner of Shaanxi for his merits.
During his tenure, he thwarted the invasion by the barbarians.
Later, he served as the Jianghuai Transport Commissioner.
Cai Jing changed the southeastern transshipment method of grain transport to a direct route.
Most of the applicants were idle scoundrels.
Theft and confiscation
Scattered and unverifiable
The officials dared not discuss it.
Ren Liang entered the palace to see the Emperor.
But they were completely fearless.
Cai Jing was furious when this matter was brought up.
Just then, the Bian and Si rivers were flooded.
Most of Sicheng was submerged.
Ren Liang personally led his soldiers to build the dike.
The people were relocated to higher ground.
Provide food relief.
The floodwaters receded, and the people were saved.
Cai Jing falsely accused thousands of people of drowning.
Therefore, Ren Liang was dismissed from his post and sent home.
He was only reinstated after Cai Jing was dismissed from his post as prime minister.
Ren Liang, however, was persuaded by Emperor Huizong's decree and the old military strategist Zhong.
They submitted to the Liang dynasty.
.....
Ren Liang did not go ten miles outside the city to greet him.
There was no large-scale gathering of civil and military officials in the city.
He only brought a few city officials to greet him at the city gate.
Along the way
Even if the army doesn't approach the city.
Officials from the prefectures and counties along the way would rush to see it.
Send local specialties,
It was euphemistically called a reward for the three armies.
However, they dared not truly cause hardship and waste resources.
So that all soldiers of the three armed forces can participate.
There weren't even enough for a centurion.
New decrees were issued to various state capitals.
Zhao Yuan couldn't be too harsh either.
The local specialties that were given to them were then enjoyed by the generals.
No one dared to offer money or gifts.
The rule of the Great Liang Dynasty that anyone who embezzles even a single coin will be executed has long been known throughout the land.
Song Dynasty officials received very high salaries.
It was the highest in all dynasties.
Even officials who are not corrupt have some savings.
But no one dared to use it to reward the troops.
They were afraid they hadn't won over the King of Liang.
Instead, it brought them a lot of trouble.
Since Daliang publicly erected a stone tablet that read "No one will be punished for their words,"
The censors then acted without any scruples.
Memorials impeaching officials were submitted daily.
It's no problem for wealthy families to reward the troops.
However, when officials rewarded the troops...
Most likely they will be impeached for their misconduct.
