"Lord Gong has trespassed this trip, they are soldiers of Yonghe, and there are naturally laws and regulations in the army when they die on the battlefield, you are like this, will everyone follow suit in the future?" Jin Shuichen said.

Gong Youdao glanced at Jin Shuichen out of the corner of his eye, and sure enough, this prince is not a waste, and he can see through the key to the matter at a glance. If anyone is really difficult to deal with, this Jin Shuichen is far more than his father.

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true, it is the ministers who have not thought it through, and they will definitely appease the people when they go back."

Gong Youdao said this has two meanings, if you want the people to be stable, then you must let him go back, in addition, these people sacrificed their lives for the country so there will be a unified burial, which is equivalent to agreeing to the fact that Jin Rong is a hero rather than a chaotic minister.

"The people have always had rods and scales in their hearts, and who is right and who is right cannot be changed by reversing black and white, no matter what they came for last night, it cannot change the fact that they are soldiers of Yonghe. No matter what they are fighting with the Western Desert for, this death and injury is also a fact, so His Highness will give them everything they deserve. Moreover, how can you appease the hearts of the people? ”

Jin Shuichen said and turned to Jin Duo and said: "Why didn't my father issue an edict to announce to the world, the Western Desert attacked, and these 20,000 soldiers bravely rescued him, and his family should enjoy the compensation of the imperial court, and exempt his relatives from land rent for thirty years to show his holy grace." ”

Anyway, this rescue thing is imperative, in this case, it is better to be generous, but it is beneficial to yourself. What's more, this land rent is free for 30 years, 20,000 horses, and relatives are at least about 100,000.

Jin Duo knew that this matter was their carelessness, but they didn't catch the real evidence, and they didn't attack their camp, so it was difficult to explain such a thing clearly, not to mention, they didn't have any witnesses. Right now. This matter can only be recognized by pinching his nose, but letting Jin Rong escape so easily, Jin Duo will inevitably feel uncomfortable in his heart.

"It's just that this time I came to Mengshan mainly for the hunting of the two countries. He did not carry a large amount of gold or silver with him. But since the holy decree has been issued, this reward naturally cannot be delayed, so let's bother the local government to put it on first, and then wait to return to the capital. Then let the household department send the silver. In the eyes of His Royal Highness, they are sacrificing their lives for the country, and this reward is naturally indispensable, how can one person get fifty taels of silver, a total of one million taels, and ask Lord Gong to go back and tell King Jian that it is good to prepare as soon as possible, and it must be distributed within three days. ”

As soon as Jin Shuichen's words were finished, Gong Youdao's face was not very good-looking, and he didn't bring any silver for the hunt? Let King Jane's Mansion be on the mat first? This is clearly an excuse. Looks like. They were uncomfortable in their hearts and wanted to make King Jian's mansion also contribute some money. Well, they endured.

"Chen'er, go back and arrange for a few ministers to go over, take some medicinal materials to see King Jian, and by the way, follow the people from King Jian's Mansion to help distribute the silver, and also comfort the relatives of these soldiers."

Jin Duo suddenly understood what Jin Shuichen meant, and immediately added, since he wanted the other party to bleed heavily. This money must be sent out, otherwise there is no point in just wanting a reputation.

"Yes, and the minister obeys."

Jin Shuichen wanted to laugh very much, this father was a follower. It's actually a bit of a trick. Jin Shuichen suddenly thought that Fang Yage's appearance was somewhat similar every time he made a bad move.

"In addition, the families of the 20,000 soldiers should be rewarded this time, except for one, which is really unforgivable." Jin Shuichen said suddenly.

"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this?" Gong Youdao asked with a serious expression.

"I also don't understand one thing too much, and I ask Master Gong to explain one or two things for me." Jin Shuichen changed his words.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please ask."

"Who led the 20,000 soldiers and horses this time?" Jin Shuichen asked.

"Returning to Your Highness. It's my lieutenant Shen Tian. ”

"Then His Royal Highness is strange, why is there a scholar who seems to be weak and has no power to fight back among the people that day, and what is even more strange is that this person's identity is actually the sister-in-law of Shangshu Xie Lingjun, and the brother-in-law of your prince."

As soon as Jin Shuichen's words came out, Gong Youdao's heart shook suddenly, it was over, he actually forgot about this matter, he never thought that the prince would be so shrewd and found a breakthrough point.

"Back to Your Highness, I heard that the emperor was besieged that day, and it happened that Gongzi Xie was also in the mansion, so he had to follow him in person to rescue him, and the princess and the side concubine were also dissuaded several times but failed to stop it, where did I think of it, and I sacrificed like this." Gong Youdao's forehead was almost dripping with sweat.

"Then let me ask you, on that day, your prince personally went into battle to kill the enemy and personally charged into battle, if this is really the case, why did none of the 20,000 horses survive, but your prince was able to escape?" Jin Shuichen then asked.

"Back to His Royal Highness, although my prince has the heart to go into battle to kill the enemy, he is not a general, so he only controls in the rear and does not go into battle in person." Gong Youdao knew that such an explanation was a bit far-fetched, but it was better than not explaining.

"Then I don't understand something, who was the commander on the front line that day?"

"Naturally, it is the deputy general Shen Tian, he is a general, and the prince trusts him very much." Gong Youdao said.

"Nonsense, nonsense." Jin Shuichen suddenly became angry.

"I have sent someone to investigate, this time with the Western Desert, these 20,000 horses are simply waiting to be killed, not only have there been no formation changes, but even the most basic defense has not been done, your generals are at such a level? It can be seen that he is lying, not to mention that the son of the Xie family is still wearing the armor of the general, and such an idiotic act can only be done by an inexperienced Xie Gongzi, isn't it? ”

Jin Shuichen's words were said quickly, and Gong Youdao immediately wanted to refute, but Jin Shuichen didn't give him such a chance.

"Don't say anything about temporarily finding an armor to give him an excuse to put on self-defense, the military orders on the battlefield are like mountains, how can the matter of status be joked? What's more, all the courtiers should be appointed by the imperial court, and it is disrespectful for your prince to do so. Not only let an inexperienced man lead the army, but also let an uncanonized man be a general, if it weren't for this, maybe the 20,000 men and horses would not have been wiped out at all. Since you are here to rescue you, you should know that half of the soldiers in this Western Desert have been killed by our soldiers before you both encountered. ”

Jin Shuichen's words Gong Youdao did not refute it, if he didn't admit it, then King Jian was likely to be charged with a big disrespect, if he did, then Xie Lingjun was estimated to be unsafe. However, looking at what Jin Shuichen means now, it doesn't matter what he says, what matters is what kind of result he wants.

"Father, the son of the emperor implores the father and the emperor to issue a decree to hold Shang Shu Xie Lingjun accountable for the crime of teaching his son improperly. Not only did he fail to raise his son well, which directly led to the tragic death of 20,000 soldiers, but he also relied on his relationship with King Jian to send his son to the army privately, violating the law and despising the imperial power. Such a person is really unable to take on the important position of Shangshu, and should be dismissed and investigated. ”

Since they have given a rescue merit, then they also have to pay the price, a million taels of silver is nothing, and their Shangshu should also be replaced. (To be continued.) )
