Chapter 224: The Disaster of Xianxian
"Although this war started because of Chuyang, I am in the six counties of Dongpingling, and I can't shirk my responsibility. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info[η^ζ^δΉ¦εΊ][]. [774] [buy]. Fortunately, this Jingyuan rice harvest is abundant, and if there are people affected by the disaster in the county, we can help as much as we can, and it can be regarded as compensation for the damage to their homes. Zuo Meng's soldiers went out of Chuyang, so that the lives were ruined, if he still has human nature, he should return to Yangmeng Pass, otherwise the sky will be angry and resentful, and he will inevitably suffer evil retribution in the future!"
"No!"
Soon, Rong Qing straightened out his state of mind, otherwise his Dao heart would be dusty, and his cultivation would be damaged. If Zuo Meng hadn't raised troops, he would not have killed tens of thousands of soldiers in Chuzhou and Chuyang, let alone let 200,000 people in Guangyun and Julu counties suffer. Although Rong Qing did the murder and arson, it was a last resort, and it was impossible for her to bear these responsibilities! On the contrary, Rong Qing had already ordered compensation for the people affected by the disaster, which was a great merit.
This is the principle of heaven and the truth.
A few days later, the sky cleared and the scorching sun shrouded again.
Guanshui, outside the second county of Taoyuan, the soldiers are cleaning the battlefield and burying the corpses. The most severely affected this time was not the giant deer vein with the most casualties, but the Guangyun vein that was flooded. Feng Yuan and Zuo Meng retreated together, and had already practiced to the realm of the fifth turn of the half-saint, but they also broke through to the Hu crack of the four-turn half-saint, relying on the double advantage of physique and essence, killing Feng Yuan was difficult to parry, and in the end, only a few people were left, and he withdrew from Chuzhou with Zuo Meng, and ran to Yangmeng Pass.
After the flood receded, the terrain west of Dongpingling became lower and lower, not only Guangyun County, but even the county seat of Xianxian, and even Anyu and many counties and townships in Baozhong County. Moreover, although the fallen soldiers are buried on the battlefield, the weather is hot, and there is a fear of a major epidemic after the catastrophe. Fortunately, Rong Qing, the princess of Chuyang, gave the soldiers a lot of items called "soap", which were used to cleanse and bathe, which could cleanse the body and prevent the spread of the plague.
On the main hall of Wubao in Guanshui County, Rong Qing is celebrating with many soldiers. This time the battle retreated from Chuyang Zuomeng, Rong Qing can be said to have really gained a firm foothold in Dongpingling, and Hu Zhao, Liang Ye, Yang Yu four holy generals grew around him, and captured a lot of Jingyuan magic weapons, and armed the rest of the generals to the blood pattern realm, so sitting in Dongpingling, so that Rong Qing finally had a little down-to-earth feeling.
"Congratulations to the lord for defeating Zuo Meng, so that Chu Yang will not dare to do it again!"
"This is all the work of all the soldiers, this battle, there are rewards, let's drink this cup together!" Rong Qing drank a glass of wine and sat down again with a smile. All the civil ministers and generals also drank wine, and the sound of laughter on the hall also sounded. However, after Rong Qing sat down, he did not get carried away, because although he won the battle, the six counties of Dongpingling also lost thousands of generals, appeased the casualties, rewarded the soldiers, and the loss of the three wars had already made Rong Qing's old capital a little tight.
As soon as the war drums sounded, there were 10,000 taels of gold, and this sentence was not nonsense. Although Zuo Meng was defeated this time, Rong Qing spent more than 10 million taels just on money and food, so the war was a bottomless pit, so Rong Qing's idea of taking the opportunity to expand the foundation was temporarily suppressed. "Several holy generals, this palace originally wanted to take down Xianxian and then seal the marquis of the city, but now the armament is weak, I am afraid that it is not powerful. β
"The lord must not blame himself, as long as the minister follows the lord, the matter of the lord will not mind. Hu Cracker put down the wine case and arched his hand with a smile. Tang Zhao and the others also nodded slightly, after all, now is not the time to raise troops, they have been fighting for many years, working hard and losing money, and they are not demon kings who are thirsty for killing. At this time, Yang Yu stood up and said to Rong Qing: "Lord, the minister wants to emulate the system of the ancestors of the first dynasty, how about worshipping the seal from afar?"
"Yaobai?" Rong Qing and the ministers looked at Yang Yu and immediately laughed. The so-called remote worship is to receive an empty title, but there is no food. For example, the prime minister of Xixiang was named "Marquis of Wuxiang", the food of this county marquis was in the Central Plains, and the lord of the country at that time was in Xichuan, which was called "remote worship". Yang Yu is a person who pays more attention to fame than benefits, so the idea he put forward is indeed in line with Rongqing's current situation.
"The lord and the minister are also willing to bow away. Tang Zhao and Liang Ye also arched their hands towards Rong Qing. Anyway, when I followed Rong Qing at the beginning, everyone was a false title, and now it doesn't matter if I seal it again. At least, being able to seal a city marquis can be regarded as the best destination for a holy general, Zuo Meng is the "Yangcheng Marquis" of Yanyang County, Chuyang, and his reputation is extremely majestic. Rong Qing said with a smile: "In this case, let's bow back and give you Jiangdong's food and fortune, which can be regarded as auspicious!"
"Thank you, lord!" Yang Yu hurriedly avoided the table and bowed, Tang Zhao and Liang Ye were also overjoyed. Hu Crack also showed an expectant smile, which made Rong Qing a little ashamed for a while. "Alas, following a master like me who is a wretched man, I am really wronged by you. In this way, we will go to the altar in a few days to reward and tell heaven and earth. β
But as soon as Rong Qing's words came out, Liao Xian stopped him falsely, "The lord is slow." Everyone looked at Liao Xian, but saw Liao Xian and said: "The matter of rewarding, if the name is not right, it is not good, and now that the distinguished guest has arrived, he can just borrow his power to help the lord and the generals to be wise." Rong Qing was puzzled: "Who is that?"
"My lord, please know. Liao Xian smiled slightly, and then waved his hand and said, "Please invite Xian to come!"
"Please come here!"
The attendant sang, only to see the door of the palace open, and walked into a slim man! Yes, it was slim and slim, as soon as this person appeared, Yang Yu and the others immediately lost their appetite, and they retreated back to sit back in front of the table. Rong Qing also patted his head, because the person who came was none other than Zhen Heng, the "Confucian general" who is now guarding the county town in Xianxian. But the envoy is a guest, Rong Qing still patiently increased the guest position and greeted the envoy.
"Chen Zhenheng sees Her Royal Highness the Princess. Zhen Hengran bowed down, giving Rong Qing goosebumps, "Ah...... That, Miss Zhen...... Ah no, Lord Zhen is polite, please take a seat!" Zhen Heng bowed again, "Thank you, Your Highness." Then with the support of his entourage, he sat down on the guest seat. Rong Qing glanced at this "big girl" and said, "Lord Zhen commands the military and civilians in a city, and is busy with government affairs, how can he have leisure and come to the small county?"
Although the Xianxian army and horses were almost lost, no matter what, Zhen Heng is now also the lord of a city, and Rong Qing is also a little incomprehensible to this idle son-in-law. However, in the middle of the Dajin Dynasty, there are many gate valves, and the style of writing overshadows the martial style, especially in the land south of the Yangtze River, most of the men are soft and beautiful, but it is a pity that such a man makes Rong Qing dare not compliment. "I thought I was already a mother enough, but after watching him, I realized that Lao Tzu was an iron-blooded real man. β
"I heard that Her Royal Highness the princess is full of grain and rice, and Zhen has come here to borrow grain from Her Royal Highness. Zhen Heng arched his hand towards Rong Qing, and his voice was soft, which made people think about it. However, Rong Qing didn't appreciate his level, and borrowing money and grain was a very offensive move, not to mention that the two of them were fundamentally incompatible?" "Although I have a six-county foundation in Dongpingling, it is not a rich land, and after the war, the army and the people are exhausted, and even the landlord's family has no surplus grain?"
Rong Qing's answer to those who asked him to borrow food was basically this sentence.
"The princess is wrong. Zhen Heng sat down and looked at Rong Qing, "This time, the Chuyang army came to my Chuzhou, and there were three battles, all of which were caused by His Highness. Ordered the flooding and burning of the two counties, which was also done by His Royal Highness, and now the two counties of the city of Xianxian have suffered, and the soldiers and civilians are all starving, and there are more than 100,000 people in the two counties of Anyu Baozhong. His Royal Highness retreated from a state's soldiers, but he killed all living beings in the world, and now he still sees death and does not save him, how can he bear it?"
Don't look at Zhen Heng's weak appearance, as a Jiangdong debater, he is also very set. As an envoy, Rong Qing couldn't fight him, so when Hu Cracks and the others heard this, their eyes burst out with murderous intent. Rong Qing laughed a few times, then looked at Zhen Heng, and said, "Dare to ask Lord Zhen, what is the cause of this disaster?" Zhen Heng sneered and said, "Naturally, it was because of His Highness's embankment." β
"Nonsense, it's obviously because of you and Zuo Mengxing's soldiers, otherwise how would Hori Di start!" Liang Ye was suddenly furious! Because Zhen Heng's words clearly put the responsibility completely on Rong Qing's body, and the person who attacked the Dongshui Embankment was none other than him Liang Ye. Hundreds of thousands of people were affected by the disaster, Jiangdong was in turmoil, and no one could afford such a notoriety; Tang Zhao and the others hurriedly grabbed him, in case Liang Ye went crazy here, this notoriety would really be confirmed.
