The carriage passed by on the central avenue of Palahan, and the buildings and linings on both sides of the street were projected on the somewhat gloomy face of the second prince from time to time, showing a black and white brilliance.

Turning his head, the second prince Harusquez turned his gaze to a delicate-looking young nobleman at the time, "Berkedaqing, I am satisfied with the worksheet of the recent Kyoto rectification. Under the effective measures of the Qing Dynasty, in cleaning up the audacity of the civilians, clearing up the rebel spies outside the city (Rui Erdian and the two sides call each other rebels), especially last night, he arrested the rebellious leader of the academy at one time, it is really an outstanding achievement, my lord, you have worked hard. ”

The young nobleman on the opposite side politely owed, and said with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Prison Country is too praised, this is all in the name of His Royal Highness's heroism, those rebellious ministers tried to hit the stone with eggs, they were simply not self-sufficient, and the subordinates were just doing their duty, and the main achievements were still due to His Highness and a few capable colleagues,

Especially the head of the Posaras banner recommended by His Highness, it was he who risked his life last night and fought on the front line against the leaders of those scum struggles, he is our warrior"

"Oh, I heard that Qing's subordinates are also ......," the second wife asked in a hesitant voice

"It's a pity, compared to the injured head of the Posaras Banner, my subordinate who can't make it (read free text novels and go to the "Wanshu Society") material is too shameful......" The young nobleman shook his head with a look of shame, "I have ordered the whole city to search for apricots, and we must wipe out all these rebellions" There must be no missed target!"

"Your lord, you are too modest. Your Excellency's achievements are obvious to all, and since you adopted your silence strategy, the atmosphere in Kyoto has become much better, and the second prince picked the curtain of the carriage," he said

"Just look at the awe-inspiring eyes of passers-by and know that Kyoto is regaining its former majesty in people's hearts! I haven't seen such a situation for a long time," the second prince looked quite emotional, and he didn't know whether it was true or false, and the second prince had already practiced in this regard

"This is all due to the prestige of His Highness...... The subordinates just took a little light......" The young nobleman said respectfully, his delicate face full of sincerity,

If it weren't for the fact that the name Burkeda came from the second prince. "No one will believe that this handsome and somewhat gloomy young man is the one who raised the banner in the south and gathered an army of thousands of people in just one month, and now he is also the Minister of Finance" Minister of War and the Minister of the City Guard, and his limelight in Kyoto can be said to be unique for a while

The second prince, Harusques, flipped through the report in his hand and frowned

"But what I suspect is that in just ten days, Your Excellency's city guard system has cracked more than eight cases of treason and defection to the enemy, and more than 40,000 criminals have been arrested...... Isn't that an exaggeration?"

"The subordinates are incompetent, and they can't catch all the traitors who don't know how to be grateful, and they really have the kindness of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the ministers are afraid. But please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Prison State to be aware that his subordinates are indeed trying their best to "deliberately pretend to be frightened," the young man said solemnly with regret on his face

"Subordinates will go back" immediately ordered the garrisons and city guards of the four gates in the city to take greater and more severe measures to crack down on the rebellious thieves. ”

"This ......" The second prince opened his eyes wide, as if he was choked, his eyes were staring at the young nobleman in front of him, he had been in Kyoto for a long time, and he really didn't want to meet such a foolish guy,

actually took the counter-words as a compliment, did you really think of me as a fool" The second prince has the feeling of playing the piano when the cow plays,

"Ahem"

Suppressing the anger in his heart, the second prince coughed twice to alleviate the embarrassment, and continued, "Berkedaqing, you have misunderstood. I mean, 40,000 people were arrested in just ten days. Isn't it too much? Is it too cruel? If you continue to be caught like this, the whole people of Kyoto. I can't last two months!"

"Your Highness, there is no way to have such an idea!"

The young nobleman opened his eyes and knelt in front of the second prince with great excitement, and said with an angry face, "The blade ten thousand rebels outside the city are always watching the head of His Highness,

At this moment, as long as there is a slight hesitation, His Highness will be swallowed up by the rebels of the blade, if he only regrets it at that time, it will be too late, and His Highness also knows that those teachers and students of the academy, as well as most of the minor nobles in Kyoto, have always been in contact with the rebels outside the city, and their number is more than 10,000? ”...,

"But I know that the person who manages the royal family archives is also on the list of rebellious chiefs," the second prince said with some unwillingness, "I know that man, he is completely an old stubborn who does not care about the world, has he also become a rebel!

"Your Highness, are you talking about the old archivist?" the young nobleman looked stunned, and said after a moment of silence, "The executive force has explained to me last night that they believe that as the person in charge of the royal archives, "at a time when His Highness needs to establish the crown prince the most, he expressed his disregard for life and fear of death, and secretly had correspondence with some rebels, which is an unforgivable act of treason.

If rebellion is not punished, who will be faithful to His Highness?"

The second prince's face turned red and white, and he was speechless for a long time. Only then did he ask again: "What about the commander of the city guard, the commander of the Kelida, who hoisted the flag." If you suddenly remove him, there's no chance he'll cooperate with the rebel!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as the commander of the city guard, but he pushed back when he carried out the order last night, if when the rebels outside the city attacked, he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and fled with his subordinates...... The subordinates remembered that in the last time when the city was at its most critical, His Highness had issued a military order 271, and before the military order, if anyone who retreated was punished as a rout in battle, Colidarn's behavior had constituted a rout in battle.

"But his exploits in front of him..."

"Your Highness, merit and demerit cannot be compensated. Otherwise, everyone dares to commit crimes and be unscrupulous (read free text novels to the "Wanshu Society"), and the prestige of the Wang family will be gone. The young nobleman's face was stern, and he looked awe-inspiring

This ......" Second Highness was speechless again. Of course, he knew the 271st military order, and he would never take a step back, which was issued last time in order to push the cannon fodder troops formed by the refugees onto the city wall, which was later called the death order.

When the crusading army outside the city broke through the line of defense and came straight to Palahan, out of desperation or madness, the second prince issued this order, and over the burning city,

The second prince stood at the head of the city and personally dismantled his sword to supervise the battle: "We cannot tolerate cowardice, and we cannot give it any room to survive. Those who do not obey orders and discipline are traitors and must be eliminated without mercy!,

It is this most extreme and terrifying means that the second prince used the lives of hundreds of thousands of refugees in Palahan to organize the second line of defense and form one new flag group after another.

Whether it was deserters, trapped criminals, even death row prisoners were all given weapons, and let them go to block the battle line one after another......

Many of the new troops were sent before they even had time to make their rosters. Countless young soldiers died in the battlements of Palahan without even leaving their names, and the second prince himself still has lingering fears when he thinks of that tragic scene.

The second prince was silent, and the atmosphere in the carriage seemed a little cold

The young nobleman's eyes flickered, and he probably also felt that he was a little ruthless, and hurriedly added, "Your Highness, as law enforcers, we can only enforce the law impartially and act in accordance with the law. Of course, Your Highness, you can also extrajudicial mercy and issue an amnesty for Kolidarn, which is your prerogative. ”

The second prince's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly, "Then, thank you." ”

"Don't dare to be, it is the honor of the lower officials to serve His Royal Highness. The subordinate will go back and give the order. The young nobleman stood up, and neither of them spoke, looking out the window at the scenery passing by.

The second prince's thoughts were tumbling in his heart, and he secretly thought, "Enforce the law impartially?" This guy really underestimated him, and his previous stupidity was simply pretended, taking this 271 military order as an example, even if all the generals are arrested, it is okay to be afraid, those who follow you will live, and those who oppose you will die! Do you really treat me as a fool? Isn't it for the sake of your tens of thousands of troops, such a rude guy like you would have been killed a long time ago!"

At a door. , the carriage stopped. Dressed in the uniform of a knight of the Praetorian Guard, the officer of Ryordian stepped forward to open the door to the carriage, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness, Lord Berkeda, Her Royal Highness Princess Haraoan has guests, please wait in the hall first." ”

"Oh, Harauan has a guest?"

The second prince's face pale for a moment, and he subconsciously glanced at the young nobleman next to him, and said in a reproachful tone, "Boke Daqing, didn't you say that Her Royal Highness the princess has been unwell all this time, and no one has seen her?"

"This ...... That's true!" The young nobleman's face was embarrassed when he was asked, and his delicate face was covered with this chilling coldness.

"How did you protect the princess!" the young nobleman asked, "Don't you know that the whole city is now arresting rebels?

"My lord, it really has nothing to do with us!" the Praetorian Guard Knight quickly knelt down with a frightened face, and responded with a cry in his voice, "It's ...... It's an envoy of the Falcon Dynasty!"I heard that I came to discuss the matter of welcoming (read free text novels and go to the "Wanshu Society") relatives, so Her Royal Highness the princess gave a special reception! We can't stop it! Now the person is in the outer courtyard of the princess's residence."

"The Falcon Dynasty's greeting envoy!, how can you ...... at this time"

The young nobleman seemed to think of something, his face was big, and there was even a trace of panic between his cold and delicate eyebrows, and he asked, "How long have people been here?"

"Just one person, and the rest of the retinue have returned!" replied the knight of the Praetorian Guard (to be continued.)
