Chapter 42: I Don't Want To

Xue Baochai and Xiao Dezi were also at a loss when they heard the cause and effect of the incident, but the two of them were not as bold as Feng Ye, and they were still very afraid of the imperial court. I hope Feng Ye can write to the emperor and explain it well, after all, it is a father-son relationship.

No matter how much he overestimated the strength of the Dongning Iron Cavalry, no one would think that Feng Ye would be able to fight against the imperial court with three thousand Dongning Iron Cavalry. That's just a car in the mantis arm, and I can't do anything about myself.

The county commander Li Wei has been twisting his goatee beside him, bowing his head in contemplation, and being silent. When Feng Ye set his eyes on him, Li Wei raised his head and glanced at Feng Ye.

Li Wei said with a clear head: "Your Highness, when the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and no one helps you speak, no matter how you explain it, it is useless." Even if you come up with a mountain of ironclad evidence, they can be said to be forged, killing good and risking merit.

There are two official words, and people have big mouths and you have small mouths. Everyone is full of gold and spoils, and naturally they are what they say. Even if someone believes your explanation, they will not dare to speak out and offend people. After all, the way to be an official is that more things are better than less things. ”

Although Li Wei is just a county magistrate, after all, he has been mixed in officialdom for many years and knows things in officialdom very well.

"Then tell me, what should I do now?" Feng Ye said expressionlessly. Feng Ye's idea was to ignore the imperial court, and if he was in a hurry, he would rebel. Being a small warlord on one side is actually quite beautiful.

Li Wei said with a straight face: "Your Highness, the lower officials have a way to let the court no longer pursue this matter." Now the imperial court lacks war horses, and the infantry suffers greatly from the cavalry and the enemy with Donghu. And we in Dongning currently have tens of thousands of good war horses.

As long as you are willing to provide a batch of war horses to the imperial court in the name of offering war spoils. All rumors will be dispelled. And you'll gain great prestige and become one of our heroes. ”

As soon as Feng Ye heard this, he immediately understood, to put it bluntly, some people in the court saw that he had too much combat power of the king of Dongning County, so he found a crime and wanted to punish him, so his property naturally became a thing of the imperial court.

Whether it is the powerful private army, or the tens of thousands of war horses that are priceless in the Central Plains. It's all good things that those people covet, otherwise why would those people bother making up stories?

This matter is indispensable to the hands of the crown prince or several other princes. Maybe they did it together. Such a remark that reverses black and white may not be possible for a person. Is it true that all the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty were fools? In Daliang, the top talents were all officials, and it can be said that everyone was a human being.

In the eyes of these people, Feng Ye's three thousand cavalry is already so powerful, and now he is sitting on tens of thousands of war horses, if it takes time to train tens of thousands of iron horses, I am afraid that no one will be his opponent, once the emperor dragon returns to the sky, even if they inherit the throne, they will not be able to sit on the dragon chair.

This Li Wei and Li County Commander really have some skills and can see the essence of the matter clearly. An effective solution was proposed. Xiao Dezi and Xue Baochai next to him suddenly became overjoyed, sweeping away the sorrow just now. They all praised: "This method is good." ”

The county order Li Wei's method is indeed the best way to solve the problem at present, but Feng Ye does not want to do this. Even though there are thousands of reasons to agree, there is only one reason not to agree: "Lao Tzu is unwilling." ”

Why do you look at my things and make up a crime for me, so I have to obediently offer them with both hands? Do people use knives and I am fish and meat? The problem is that Lao Tzu is not a fish belly, Lao Tzu has the ability to resist!

Xiao Dezi saw that Feng Ye's face was not very good, and he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't lose your temper at this time, you can forget about other things, but in this matter, Your Majesty will definitely not raise it high and put it down gently, as before." ”

Feng Ye waved his hand at him and said, "I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more." As soon as Xiao Dezi saw Feng Ye and Feng Ye's face, he suddenly didn't dare to speak again, no matter how anxious he was in his heart, he didn't dare to persuade him again. can only secretly ask Xue Baochai for help.

Xue Baochai is a smart person, he immediately realized, Lianbu stepped forward, Ying Ying bowed and said: "Husband, Your Majesty is your father after all, now that Donghu has entered the Kou, Your Majesty is in trouble, why don't we send Your Majesty some war horses as a congratulatory gift in the name of filial piety to Your Majesty?"

Xue Baochai understands very well that no matter who it is, it must be uncomfortable to be calculated like this, so Lan Xinhui deliberately changed the dedication to the court to a congratulatory gift for her father. It's still the same thing, but at least it sounds a lot more acceptable.

The art of language is so magical, what was originally indignant, in other words, it does not sound so angry.

But Feng Ye still didn't plan to do that. One compromise retreats, and the next time the other party will intensify. The other party will think that he is cowardly of the king of Dongning County, and then treat him as a soft persimmon. Troubles will ensue in the future.

"Alright, I've made up my mind. Feng Ye waved his hand with a cold face, signaling Baochai to retreat. Ask them to come up with ideas, but after Feng Ye made a decision, the others couldn't say more. I have to let everyone know who is in charge of this Dongning.

"Go and call Grandpa Xia. Feng Ye commanded. The guards guarding the door took the order and left.

After a while, Gonggong Xia rushed over with two little eunuchs, bowed to Feng Ye with low eyebrows, and did not have the arrogant appearance in front of others. The eunuchs knew very well who could and who could not be provoked. If you don't understand this, you won't be able to find the ashes that have died a long time ago.

"Father-in-law Xia, when you go back to report to your father, just say that those people are slanderous, this king is right, stand upright, if anyone is not convinced, let him come to Dongning to confront this king in court. Feng Ye said lightly.

Gonggong Xia was stunned, although he had long known that this Nine Emperor Prince, the King of Dongning County, was a lawless hob meat. But on such a big charge as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, he actually dared to play a scoundrel with the imperial court and let people come to Dongning to confront him? Just kidding, what is the difference between that and letting people come to death?

"Your Highness, what did you just say, the little one has not heard clearly behind his ears recently, and it feels as if he heard it wrong. Father-in-law Xia asked cautiously.

"Yes, you will return my original words to Your Majesty. Tell him that I have a clear conscience. Feng Ye said with a cold face.
