Although Huang Qiong said these words without saying it explicitly, the emperor understood the meaning. Over the years, his second son has been expropriating in Zhengzhou and has accumulated a lot of land in his name. No matter what the truth of King Jing's rebellion is, the property in his name is bound to be confiscated. Such a large amount of land can be described as a considerable piece of fat in the eyes of other clans.

If someone else goes, if these lands really want to be returned to the people, I am afraid it can only be a fool's dream. Not to mention the people standing behind them, will they worry about these lands. is to make a lot of money from it, and it is estimated that there will not be a few. Just as Huang Qiong said, Zhengzhou's public grievances are boiling at the moment.

The real problem is not in the war, but in the aftermath. And the problem of the aftermath, the most critical is in the land under the name of King Jingfu. If the people sent out take this opportunity to make a big profit, I am afraid that it will really arouse the people's back. When the time comes, there are Chen Sheng, Wu Guangzhi and others who will ascend to the heights and shout, I am afraid that something big will happen immediately.

The long history of Huang Qiong's mansion is a bit old-fashioned. But it can be regarded as a hard bone, and in dealing with this kind of aftermath problem, this kind of person is really needed. At least, this person will not bend over because of the powerful. Regardless of the life and death of the people of Zhengzhou, he did something tyrannical and expropriatory. Thinking of this, the emperor nodded slightly and agreed to Huang Qiong's two requests.

Seeing that the emperor nodded in agreement, Huang Qiong gritted her teeth, stood up and said to the emperor, "Father, my son is begging you for one last thing." My son wants a letter of pardon from you. Those who accompanied the second brother's rebellion, except for a few, are estimated to be ordinary people who have been coerced into it. ”

Among them, less than one percent of those who are really willing to risk losing their heads and follow the second brother to rebel. Most of the rest may not even know that they are rebelling. The art of war is cloudy: siege is the bottom, attack the heart is the top. Even if the second brother is determined to rebel, there are not many people who are really willing to follow him all the way to the dark. ”

"Even the illiterate common people know that rebellion is a great crime to exterminate the nine clans. As long as the pardon arrives, if the team that the second brother has worked hard for many years is not good, it will directly collapse. Besides, the two elder brothers have been angry and resentful in the fiefdom over the years. How many of the soldiers who were coerced in really worked hard for them? ”

"Even if the two elder brothers can barely maintain the morale of the army, but the army with no morale and military morale, how long can it resist even if it struggles? The so-called soldiers who surrender without a fight are probably like this. Father, the two elder brothers did such a rebellious thing, but those ordinary people didn't deserve to die. My son doesn't want this killing to be too heavy and damage your reputation. ”

In fact, the emperor had agreed to grant Huang Qiong the right to make decisions on the spot, and in fact, those who participated in the rebellion, those who should be pardoned, and those who should not be pardoned, the right has been granted to Huang Qiong. But Huang Qiong was a little worried that someone would take advantage of this matter and accuse him of buying people's hearts, so he kicked the ball to the emperor.

In fact, Huang Qiong still had a little bit in her heart, and she didn't say it. Although he had not experienced the war, Huang Qiong, who was familiar with history books in both previous and second lives, was worried that the generals sent by the old man were eager to make meritorious contributions and took the opportunity to kill the good and take the risk. It was not easy for civil officials in the Great Qi Dynasty to be promoted, and it was equally difficult for military attachés to be promoted.

The interior is not like a border army, and it may not be possible to win big battles, but small battles basically occur every year, and it is relatively easy to make meritorious contributions. The garrisons in the interior basically do not have this benefit. In particular, Huang Qiong heard that many generals of the four major battalions had not been promoted for some years after they were transferred back from the border army.

It is difficult to ensure that some generals who are eager to be promoted finally seize this opportunity and kill indiscriminately for promotion. With this pardon, although it may not be possible to completely control the act of killing good and taking meritorious deeds, it can greatly reduce the probability of such a thing happening. It is better to prevent it before it happens than to make up for it after the fact.

Compared with the previous three requirements, Huang Qiong's later requirements were relatively not high, and although the emperor was a little hesitant, he finally nodded and agreed. Seeing the emperor nodding, when the emperor hesitated, Huang Qiong's heart that had been hanging was completely relaxed.

After the talk was over, the emperor did not immediately let Huang Qiong go. Instead, he stared at him for a long time before saying, "I hope that those two sons of evil will finally be able to restrain themselves from the precipice." But as you said, the heart is separated from the belly. Even his own son may not really listen to my father's words. ”

"If it really comes to the point where you meet each other, I hope you will remember your promise today. I have already given you everything I can give you, and I hope you will not let me down. You go back to rest first, and after three days, go to the Mengjin Xiao Riding Camp to sit down. If the matter is really irreparable, you will command the Xiaocai battalion to go to Zhengzhou to quell the rebellion. ”

Hearing that the old man had finally let him go, Huang Qiong didn't say anything. After Huang Qiong left in a hurry, the emperor looked at his back for a long time, and only after talking to their father and son, he never came in. Huang Qiong's mother, who didn't return until Huang Qiong left, said: "Bingxue'er, you gave birth to a good son for me. ”

"Except for some concerns too much, this son really looks a little like me back then. Even considering the thoughtfulness of things, even I was a little inferior back then. is bold and careful, and is willing to make up his mind to drill in case of trouble. Over the years, I have really been ashamed of this son and you. I looked at him, and I regretted whether the decision was the right one. ”

For the emperor's praise, Shouyang's mother, who was holding Shouyang in the bad, did not answer him. Instead, he stood there quietly, not knowing what he was thinking. It wasn't until Shouyang, who was a little sleepy in her arms, yawned that her mother turned around and handed Shouyang to Jingniang, who rushed over, to rest.

Seeing Shouyang being taken away by Jing Niang, the emperor walked to his mother's side, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face, and said softly: "I, I really feel a little tired these days, and I didn't think of me now." Just like 20 years ago, it is really only with you that you can have some peace of mind. ”

"I don't sleep well these days. As soon as I closed my eyes, I remembered the first time you and I met more than 20 years ago. The sassy and heroic female knight on a white horse. At that time, although you had never seen your smile, the eyes under the veil were so bright. ”

"After knowing your identity, I know that you have been waiting for me to propose. But because of my weakness and cowardice back then, I was afraid that my status was low and I was not worthy of you, but I never dared to propose marriage. Later, I married her, knowing that I shouldn't provoke you again, but I couldn't restrain myself. ”

"I know that when you agreed to enter the palace of the King of Huaiyang County, it was not so much for your family as for me. Although you want to keep your family, why not to keep me. When it was added between me and your father, it really hurt you. On the day of the candle night in the cave room, I still remember what you said to me. ”

"I once swore to the heavens that I would never fail you, but after all these years, I still failed you and her. Bingxue'er, can I not leave tonight? There's been so much going on these days, and I haven't been close to you for some days. After all these years, I'm getting old. Even if I want to make up for you, I can't do it, I just want to cherish every day now. ”

Huang Qiong's mother blushed slightly at the emperor's request, but she did not object. Seeing that the ex-wife had no objection, the emperor didn't care about his status as the king of a country, and looked like a young man in his twenties, so he picked up Huang Qiong's mother and walked towards the bedroom.

As for where Huang Qiong's mother's bedroom is, the emperor, who is obviously familiar with it now, doesn't need to deliberately look for it. And Huang Qiong, who left in a hurry, naturally didn't know that after he left, his emperor Lao Tzu was cheeky and asked to stay in Tingxue Xuan.

Of course, he knows that he doesn't have the right to object, right? If the mother doesn't send it right, what can he, the son, do? What's more, the other protagonist is his biological father. However, Huang Qiong's words to the emperor sounded somewhat sensual love words to him, although he didn't dare on the surface, he would definitely give a contemptuous look in his heart.

Just when Huang Qiong heard this, he would definitely despise him as a little disrespectful to his parents, and when he heard Xue Xuan's tent. Huang Qiong, who had returned to her palace, was lying in the bathtub, but she was thinking about listening to the conversation between Xue Xuan and the old man today. The old man didn't tell himself the truth today, Huang Qiong was very sure of this.

When he said that the two kings rebelled, it may not be as simple as it seems on the surface, but the old man skipped this paragraph. This clearly told Huang Qiong that the old man at the moment did not let him be depressed, or saddened. The things he saw, the old man may not have seen it.

It is even possible that the old man has a clearer judgment on some things than himself. Looking at it now, the old man sent himself to Zhengzhou, and I am afraid that after repeatedly recruiting King Jing into Beijing, he will already be prepared. Today's conversation is nothing more than what he has prepared for a long time. Even if I didn't listen to Xue Xuan today, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape this matter.

It's just that the old man is really so simple at this time, just to keep his royal grandchildren? I'm afraid this is just one of the reasons, but what is the reason for the old man's deeper step, Huang Qiong doesn't know. Even if King Jing really rebelled, Huang Qiong always thought that the military problem was not big.

As long as the four battalions were still in the hands of the emperor, King Jing's rebellion would only make a splash at most. But the difficulty lies in the aftermath of Zhengzhou. The old man now clearly wants to hand over the entire Zhengzhou problem to himself, what should he do is the most appropriate?

The most important thing is how to dispose of the land under King Jing's name that he has seized for various reasons. Huang Qiong thinks that this is what she needs to think about the most at the moment. He knew that no matter whether King Jing really wanted to start a rebellion or not, there was no doubt about one thing, that is, once he left Zhengzhou, it would be impossible to go back.

And those clans that do not have an ordinary strong desire for land, once they learn of the fall of King Jing, they will swarm like flies smelling blood. When the time comes, what should I do with it? No matter what you do, it's hard not to offend anyone.

Especially those magistrates who want to make a fortune from the middle, and the surrounding clans who are about to become "ownerless" when they see the surrounding clans that are about to become "ownerless", I am afraid that their saliva will flow down. If he wants to stabilize the situation in Zhengzhou in the shortest possible time and return the land occupied by King Jing, then he will definitely offend these people.
