Chapter Forty-Three: Appearance?

Three days later, the officials who were waiting for Lu Ning to see Lu Ning return, so they were relieved.

Gan and You Wuniang secretly glanced at Lu Ning in the back hall a few times, and then left exhausted accompanied by the secretary of the pawn.

Lu Ping, the chief of the guard, was even more anxious, like the two Shang Gong ladies, he never closed his eyes, and saw the lord turn safely, the huge man, but the child saw his father and mother, tears in his eyes.

He and the other twelve commanders and all the soldiers had great confidence in the lord of the country, but after all, they were still afraid of what happened.

This time against Zhou Bing, it was a big victory.

The thieves are defenseless, and the weapons built by the lord of the country are extremely sharp, armored, and unparalleled, and the thieves have no power to fight back.

Soon it collapsed.

It's just that he waits for himself and has the responsibility of guarding the manor, so he didn't pursue it.

After that, the lord of the country arrived, immediately pursued and killed, and ordered himself to wait, and assigned six soldiers to follow behind and sweep the tail, but he could only see the corpse, more than 230 thieves, except for those who died in the battle on the shore of Minghu Lake, the rest were almost all killed by the lord of the country.

But I don't know, what the country is going to do, and the blood letter left behind is not clear, just let me wait for a few days.

Now seeing the lord of the country turn around, Lu Ping couldn't help it anymore, but he cried like a child.

After all, he had never experienced this, he had just experienced the battle of life and death, and he had to defend his homeland without the lord of the country, and it lasted for three days, and it was the first time he had borne such a heavy pressure.

Lu Ning patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Okay, it's okay, I've already gone to Yizhou and shot all the generals such as the Yizhou regimental training envoy to set an example. ”

Lu Ping was stunned.

This is in the council hall, Jia Lun, Liu Hanchang, Wang Hanshi, Ma Zhuhua and other government officials are all there, listening to Lu Ning's words, they are also dumbfounded.

Lord, this is, a tooth for a tooth immediately? Moreover, the fierceness of the counterattack simply made the other party pay a hundredfold and a thousand times the price.

Lu Ning sighed softly in his heart, in fact, those Zhou soldiers may not be all damned people, and Yizhou Zhou Chen, not to mention, the regimental training envoy Zhang Hui, seems to have some fame in later generations, not only brave in battle, but also very good to the people.

However, this is the case in troubled times.

To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to one's own relatives and friends, and to those who live within one's borders.

If you don't use the most drastic means to intimidate them, let them know a little about what they can do.

So who do you blame for the rebellious army that comes to harass from time to time, and the people in the East China Sea are slaughtered and mutilated?

As for chasing down those soldiers in the East China Sea, it is actually very simple.

The Zhou soldiers who came to the East China Sea were nothing more than two directions, one was Mizhou in the north and the other was Yizhou in the northwest.

However, when the Zhou soldiers of Mizhou came to the East China Sea, they wanted to pass through Huairen and Dishui Town, and it was impossible to come to Donghai City silently.

Therefore, it can only be Yizhou in the northwest, crossing the Surabaya River into the East China Sea.

It's easy to guess something.

Nowadays, people do not have a complete concept of maps in their minds, unlike later generations, the whole of China and even the world, and the general outline is in their minds.

Therefore, those Zhou soldiers thought that they could escape by hiding their traces, and whether it was their own soldiers or the people of the East China Sea, they didn't know where Zhou soldiers came from for a while.

But for yourself, it's simple.

Not to mention the traces of these brigade Zhou soldiers, it is easy to track them by yourself.

"My lord, under the search, we caught a fish that slipped through the net!" Lu Ping suddenly remembered that after the overall situation was decided, they mobilized all villages to practice, searched carefully, and really found a fish that slipped through the net, but because they didn't go with the brigade because they had a stomach, they happened to fall into a deep ditch and couldn't get out, so they didn't find out by the lord, and they were really lucky.

Lu Ning bowed his head slightly and made a decapitation gesture.

Lu Ping nodded: "Yes!" "The meaning of the lord is that those who do not stay, and who really intrude on the East China Sea realm, will be executed!

Jia Lun and other government officials were all in their hearts, but they couldn't see it in the past, the original lord of the country was so decisive in killing and killing! However, this is definitely the best deterrent to the northern country.

However, Lu Ping came back after a short time and said: "My lord, the arrested Zhou Bing identified a prisoner in the prison, said that he was a famous man in the northern country, and asked to be exempted from the death penalty. However, the minister has already been tortured and forced him to confess, the famous man in the north is called Zhao Pu, here is the confession of the Zhou soldiers. ”

Standing on both sides of Lu Ning, the big and small peaches were still red, and the big peaches hurriedly took the confession and presented it to Lu Ning's case.

Hearing the name Zhao Pu, Lu Ning was stunned.

picked up the confession, but saw the above Zhou Bing's confession that Zhao Pu was the former envoy of the Yongxing Army of the Zhou State and the staff of Liu Ci of Jingzhao Yin, and before Liu Ci died of illness, he strongly recommended Zhao Pu to the Lord of Zhou.

The Southern Expedition of the Zhou Lord invaded the Tang Dynasty, and Zhao Pu was appointed as a military judge of the German army and served in Li Chongjin's account.

This is Zhao Pu, the prime minister in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, right?

The Zhao Pu who helped Zhao Kuangyin release the military power with a glass of wine?

Although I don't know the specific traces of Zhao Pu's career, it seems that it will not be the second Zhao Pu.

"Bring that Zhao Pu!" Lu Ning groaned and said to Lu Ping: "As for identifying Zhao Pu's pawn of the Zhou Kingdom, leave him alive for the time being." ”

When Zhao Pu was brought up, Lu Ning suddenly saved his eyes and couldn't help but glance at Liu Hanchang.

Although he was wearing a prison uniform, Zhao Pu was upright and fair-skinned, and he looked very different.

This man has seen it himself.

It was because Tong Jiu roared angrily that when he entered the prison, the person who had attracted his attention.

Speaking of which, it's been a few months, and then I forgot about him when I was busy.

Lu Ning couldn't help but shake his head.

was glanced at by Lu Ning, Liu Hanchang sweated and came down, but he never expected that this prisoner would have some background, but he was the defeated army of the northern country, and he was also the staff member of one of the marshals in the northern country.

Poof, Liu Hanchang knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "The lord, the minister, the minister is a capital crime!" The minister didn't notice it for a while, and was almost confused by this meticulous work! ”

Lu Ning smiled, "Get up, you should be commended for this matter, he has not been released from prison for several months, it can be seen that you are still very careful." ”

Indeed, in the past few months, there has been an amnesty in the East China Sea, although with Liu Hanchang's character, he may not be very careful, most of them just look at Zhao Pu's non-native accent, and he has not been able to find out the real details, so he deliberately made it difficult, but no matter what, things were done right.

"Yes, yes, minister, minister panic......" Liu Hanchang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he saw Lu Ning's gesture, he slowly got up.

Lu Ning looked at Zhao Pu, and Zhao Pu also looked at Lu Ning.

Although he has been locked up in a prison, listening to the chatter between the cell boss and the jailer, as well as the words between some prisoners, Zhao Pu is very curious about this Donghai Gong.

What repaired the waterwheel and even built a new waterwheel for many villages, it is simply unprecedented in the history of the East China Sea, what to improve agricultural tools, what to accumulate fertilizer to cultivate the fields, and recently, I heard that this East China Sea port is full of Hu merchants, and more and more merchants come here in the Tang Dynasty, and so on.

The first emperor died, Shouzhou was defeated, Zhao Puhe and the lonely army were surrounded, he knew that he was not good at escaping, so he did not break through to the north with the brigade, but turned eastward, and fled to the East China Sea with the war-torn people, although he was imprisoned, he did not panic, thinking that he would be released sooner or later.

There are not a few people in the small Donghai County Prison, and sooner or later he will be released as a slightly suspicious homeless person because there are too many real criminals and the war is over.

But I don't want to, this Donghai County at the beginning because the county officials were copied, no one paid attention to the prison, and after hearing that the Donghai Gong was sealed and the lord of the East China Sea, this prison investigated the case, but it was extremely delicate, and some methods of judging the case made him unheard of, and the unjust prisoner could be released quickly, and the person who really committed the crime would be sentenced very quickly, and he had been imprisoned, naturally because of his fabricated household registration, and people went to verify it, and there was no such person.

Staying in prison, I heard about Donghai Gong's various improvements to agriculture and commerce.

Zhao Pu became more and more frightened, what kind of person is this Donghai Gong?

Listening to the cell bosses talking about Donghai Gong, he was originally just a peasant in this county, and he was able to win this country because of his contribution to the Zhou Dynasty.

Then, wouldn't that be the rumored person who shot the first emperor?

A few months ago, in prison, this person seemed to have been there, but at that time he was just pretending to be an ordinary farmer, deliberately not wanting to attract attention, so he did not observe him much.

Now, look at him.

is an extremely handsome noble son, where is the slightest peasant atmosphere?

Zhao Pu was originally from an official eunuch family, and his wife was also from a wealthy family, but looking at this Donghai Gong, although he seems to be a little frivolous and careless about anything, it is this kind of casualness and freedom that can better see that in his bones, the kind of high-mindedness, as if no one in the world is in his eyes.

This is not arrogance, but how to say it, as if he should feel that everyone is equal in front of him, even if it is the Ninety-Five Honor, in his eyes, it is the same.

This, this, even if the royal nobles are also respectful and orderly, before they succeed to the throne, they also have a sense of trembling, and this Duke of the East China Sea seems to be an emperor who has been on the throne for countless years.

"Zhao Pu, I'm going to appoint you as the prime minister of the East China Sea, what do you think?"

As soon as Lu Ning's words came out, Jia Lun, Liu Hanchang and other government officials were stunned, and Zhao Pu was even more surprised, even if it was a big or small peach, he couldn't help but look at Zhao Pu, and said in his heart that this person, the master seems to value it a lot, but it seems that it is nothing.

Lu Ning looked at Zhao Pu and pondered, although this person was greedy and autocratic in the later period, whether it was military strategy or political affairs, the talents he showed were very unusual.

As for the later period of greedy autocracy, that is a matter of the future, and a person, a worldview, will always be affected by the environment.

is like himself, where is the robot-like Lu Ning in the 21st century?

The appearance of powerful ministers, many times, is still the responsibility of the emperor.

Not to mention, I'm just at the end of my life now, and it's useless to think too much about it in the future.

This Zhao Pu, who is full of talent, should be more capable than Zhao Pu in history by his side.

"First love, I ......" Zhao Pu's careful wording, so as not to anger the Duke of Donghai, he felt that the Duke of Donghai must be joking with him and playing tricks on him, an official of the Northern Kingdom.

Lu Ning waved his hand at this time, "You repair a letter, I will personally bring your family members, since you belong to the Dehua Army, your family members are in Songzhou, right?" The transportation is also convenient. ”

Zhao Pu was even more stunned.

Lu Ning made a gesture: "Zuo Shilang, arrange a residence, give our future prime minister a temporary residence, wait to pick up his family, and then issue an edict to the whole territory of the East China Sea to clear the joy of the prime minister!" ”

Jia Lun went out of work next to him, bowed down to receive the order, and knew that he was going to put this Zhao Puxian under house arrest.

Zhao Pu was dumbfounded, and saw Donghai Gong looking at him with a smile, "You just think about it, how to write this letter." ”

Donghai Gong, is he going to kill his whole family?

However, there is no grudge or grudge, although his wife is from a big family, but his family has gradually declined, this Donghai Gong, if he is really willing to take the risk to bring his family here, just to kill them?

How insane does it have to be to do this?

But, make yourself the minister of state? What is this? In the northern country, he is just a staff member in the tent, and this Donghai Gong, who has heard about it in the past few months, and what he sees now, is by no means an ordinary person.

Donghai Kingdom, there has been no phase, you can know that he is choosing thousands of talents, waiting for his favorite talent.

Although I think very highly of myself in my heart, how can I be virtuous? As soon as he met, he felt that he was the talented person he was waiting for?

"Prime Minister, please!" Jalen on the side, smiling at him.

Zhao Pu was confused, but he could only be dizzy, followed Jia Lun, and exited the hall.
