"Virtuous nephew, are you so confident that the military department will restore the silver and the food for your wife as before?! Ahem, we don't have as much influence on the military department as you think. Wei Guogong and the others were frightened and asked worriedly.

"Of course, now that the Japanese are rampant in the south of the Yangtze River, the imperial court is the time to use soldiers, how can it be done if the horses want to run and the horses not to eat grass. If you want a soldier to use his life, he must not be stingy with rewards, so that he has no worries. In today's mutiny in the Zhenwu camp, the military headquarters will certainly learn a lesson and take swift action, so as to prevent other military camps from having a chain reaction and damaging the overall situation of the anti-Japanese war. Zhu Ping'an explained confidently.

In addition, the Shangshu of the Yingtian Military Department is Zhang Jing, which is also one of the important reasons why Zhu Ping'an has this confidence.

Although Zhang Jing is a little stubborn and arrogant, he has to admit that he is a great talent who is proficient in both literature and martial arts, and attaches great importance to the Ming Dynasty, and at present, the focus of his work is the Japanese Invaders, actively raising grain, grass and silver, recruiting brave soldiers, and preparing for resisting and exterminating the Japanese Invaders. Therefore, Zhu Ping'an believed that Zhang Jing learned the news of the Zhenwuying mutiny, and after verifying the truth, he would definitely restore the silver and his wife's food to the same as before.

"Well, I hope so." Wei Guogong closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and after opening his eyes, he sighed heavily.

"Virtuous nephew, will you let the rebels put down their weapons and disband back to the camp?" Lin Huaihou asked.

"This is not enough for them to put down their weapons and disband back to the camp so quickly, in fact, there is one more crucial thing."

Zhu Ping'an said honestly.

"What?" The three of Linhuai Hou were curious.

"Actually, it's nothing, I promise them, in view of the flood disaster and the difficulty in the livelihood of the officers and soldiers, I will give a reward of 30,000 taels of silver to the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion!"

Zhu Ping'an shrugged his shoulders and replied lightly.

"What?! Thirty thousand taels?! When Wei Guogong heard this, he gasped and wanted to pinch himself.

"Thirty thousand taels?!" Linhuai Hou and He Gonggong were also stunned when they heard this.

30,000 taels is not a small amount, for the Ming Dynasty officials, this 30,000 taels is an astronomical amount.

"Yes, thirty thousand taels...... In fact, my bottom line is 100,000 taels, but I didn't expect it to be solved with 30,000 taels. Zhu Ping'an nodded, and then changed his words and threw out a word that made Wei Guogong and them gasp.

"One hundred thousand taels?!" Wei Guogong and the other three swallowed a mouthful of saliva hard, suppressing the surprise in their hearts.

"In Yingtianliudu, a rebellion of such a scale, if it can be solved with a mere 100,000 taels of silver, it is a great bargain. If it weren't for the recent floods, it would not be possible to raise more cash in the short term, otherwise there would be no 200,000 taels or 300,000 taels. Not to mention, now it only costs 30,000 taels of silver to solve the problem. Zhu Ping'an said to Wei Guogong with a serious face.

Wei Guogong and the others suddenly fell into deep thought.

"Well, yes, just 30,000 taels of silver will make the rebellion disappear invisibly, the lives of Wei Guogong, Linhuai Marquis and the miscellaneous family can be saved, and the splendid future can be continued, this deal could not be more cost-effective." Soon, Gonggong He cocked his orchid fingers and nodded in agreement.

"Lao Xu, what Father-in-law He and his virtuous nephew said is reasonable." Lin Huaihou also nodded vigorously, "Thirty thousand taels is indeed a good deal." Think about it, if the rebellion is not controlled, the consequences can not be bearable, first of all, our lives are not guaranteed, and secondly, we will inevitably become the sinners of this rebellion, not to mention the stench for ten thousand years, our titles will be recovered by the imperial court for crimes, family property, fiefdoms, etc. are all recovered, and our family wealth is far more than 100,000 taels of silver; In addition, the rebellion of the Zhenwu camp will inevitably shake the remaining capital, and the damage it causes, no amount of silver can make up for it. Now it only cost 30,000 taels of silver to settle the mutiny, isn't it the most cost-effective? ”

"Thirty thousand taels is not a small amount...... Wei Guogong frowned, although he had already agreed in his heart, but when he thought of taking out 30,000 taels of silver to reward the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion, he couldn't help but bleed.

"Uncle, although the mutiny happened in the Zhenwu Battalion, the responsible Yasi is not just the Zhenwu Battalion. The main reasons for the mutiny among the officers and soldiers were the reduction of the amount of silver, the abolition of wives and salaries, and the delay in the payment of military salaries. Ma Kun, the secretary of the household department, reduced the silver, and Huang Maoguan, the governor and prince, raised the monthly rations of the soldiers' wives, and then postponed the payment of military salaries...... In addition, the Ministry of Naval Affairs is responsible for supervision, and it is difficult to escape the blame. In any case, the 30,000 taels of silver reward should be shared by the Ministry of Heavenly Soldiers and the Ministry of Households. ”

Zhu Ping'an reminded the country of justice.

"Well, the virtuous nephew is reasonable, this mutiny, Ying Tianbing Department will not talk about it for the time being, and Ying Tianhu Department will not be able to escape the blame! They poked out all the baskets! The 30,000 taels of silver, whatever they say, they will share it! ”

When Wei Guogong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded again and again, what Zihou said made sense, the yamen who were responsible for this mutiny were responsible for sharing the 30,000 taels of silver, and I couldn't resist alone.

Speaking of responsibility...... Wei Guogong couldn't help but quietly glance at Gonggong He......

"Hehe, the miscellaneous family also has some savings in their hands, and they won't let Wei Guogong bear it alone."

Seeing this, Gonggong He didn't understand what Wei Guogong meant, and immediately covered the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and let out a laugh.

"Ahem...... How can I let my father-in-law break the bank, and then ask my father-in-law to help and coordinate with the Tianhu Department and the Military Department to share the 30,000 taels of silver. Wei Guogong was told by He Gonggong, and his old face couldn't help but blush slightly, but he was an old fox in officialdom, and he quickly adjusted his state. Although he had the intention to let Gonggong He share some of the silver, it was good to think about it in his heart, but he didn't dare to put it into practice. Gonggong He is actually the highest military governor of Yingtian, and at some levels, his status is higher than that of Wei Guogong, and Wei Guogong does not want to offend He Gonggong.

In addition, Wei Guogong knows a lot about the group of eunuchs, the eunuchs have cut off the roots of their children and grandchildren, and they have less interest in women, and their interest and obsession with silver are far beyond ordinary people, because there is no queen, only silver can give them a sense of security and dependence. The idea of beating them with money is like a fly on the head of a tiger.

"Hehe, this is natural, Wei Guogong rest assured. When the miscellaneous family turned around, they went to the household department and the military department to go around. ”

Gonggong He covered the corners of his mouth and nodded vigorously.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Wei Guogong thanked him.

"Wei Guogong is polite, after today's incident, we are all people who have experienced life and death together, our relationship is not ordinary, how can the miscellaneous family sit idly by." Gonggong He raised the orchid and pointed out.

Our relationship is not ordinary...... The corners of Wei Guogong's mouth couldn't help twitching.
