Chapter 222: The Edict of the Great Golden Kingdom

While the meat was being raided on a large scale, he asked people to transport the confiscated silver taels and grain to the capital. Moreover, according to Liang Jia's meaning, it is necessary to focus on the investigation of those local big families and big forces, so as to reduce resistance to Liang Jia's reform in the future.

At the same time, the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang began to increase their manpower to the Shanxi area and Beihu area in the west to ensure the smooth and safe transmission of information.

Liang Jia secretly summoned Wen Xiansen and Mo Jinjun, and prepared to transfer 20,000 troops and 5,000 soldiers from the firearms battalion from the city defense battalion, and 5,000 people from Qian Zhengkun in the northeast. Leaving 5,000 men should be enough for Silla.

On Xu Yinghyuk's side, Shandong has almost been pacified, and there are some small fish and shrimp left, which is not worth leaving so many troops.

In the end, 20,000 people from Huizhou Prefecture and 10,000 people from Zhao Ximei's side were dispatched to cooperate with the 60,000 troops at the junction of Sichuan and Shaanxi, with a total of 150,000 troops to conquer Sichuan.

These 150,000 troops are naturally not comparable to the 500,000 under Dong Qixiong, but the combat effectiveness of these 150,000 troops is definitely higher than Dong Qixiong's 500,000 army.

What's more, Dong Qixiong's 500,000 troops could not all be deployed on the Sichuan-Shaanxi border to defend.

When Liang Jia was secretly preparing here, Dong Qixiong and Liu Zhongzhi on the Sichuan side seemed to have finally reached an agreement.

Dong Qixiong directly established the country as the emperor, the country name Dajin, Dong Qixiong became the first Emperor Gao Hui of Dajin, appointed Liu Zhongzhi as the prime minister to take charge of the government, the military advisor Tian Fuxin as the deputy prime minister, and Mo Wuyan as the general. Then he appointed any of his brothers who rebelled against Zhao Qingzhong as generals, and each led the army to garrison various parts of Sichuan.

Originally, the founding of the country was a big news, but after this guy founded the country, he actually did something that made Liang Jia quite angry.

This guy issued a so-called "edict" to the outside world, saying that he had no intention of rebelling, but because of the improper administration of the imperial court, which caused the displacement of people in the drought-stricken land, in order to survive, he followed Zhao Qingzhong to rebel.

But he has always been grateful for the kindness of the Queen Mother, because the Queen Mother once had contact with him, as if she had given him something in the house.

He said that the Empress Dowager was a good person, and he opposed the current court and emperor, but he was grateful to the Empress Dowager. Now that the Queen Mother's death is unknown, he wants to repay the blood debt for the Queen Mother, and at the same time give the Queen Mother the courtesy of the state funeral.

This so-called "Dajin State Edict" set off waves in the territory of Daliang.

Whether it's the capital or everywhere, it's all talking about it. The public opinion that had stopped because the imperial court came forward to prove that the body of the Queen Mother was not lost, and then the state funeral, boiled again.

After Liang Jia saw the copyed version of this edict, he angrily scolded Dong Qixiong for being extremely shameless. He doesn't have the shame to say this kind of nonsense.

As far as he knew, the Queen Mother had never been to Dong Qixiong's hometown, let alone rewarded him with anything, this bastard pretended to be the Queen Mother, humiliating the royal family so much, and the anger of the two families against him would not be eliminated.

Watching the emperor angrily tear up the copied "edict", the ministers of the Administration Department naturally understood the reason for the emperor's anger.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of today, the imperial court should come forward as soon as possible to stop the spread of public opinion, and now everyone is talking about the real body of the Queen Mother in Sichuan." Zheng Yechuan said.

"Don't I know? But what do you tell me to do to stop the spread of public opinion? I guess the whole world knows about it now, right? ”

"Whether you know it or not, the court must come forward, otherwise the world will think that the court is at a loss." Huang Zheng said.

"Yes, it is necessary to clarify the facts, but how to do it, you still need to come up with a charter from the Governance Office." Liang Jia said.

On the one hand, the imperial court should issue a notice to explain the matter, and on the other hand, it should send Jinyiwei and Dongchang personnel to directly crack down on those who talk about this matter. If it is spread maliciously, it will not be killed. Zheng Yechuan proposed a solution.

Liang Jia glanced at Zheng Yechuan unexpectedly, this is still the same person who has always acted in the golden mean, and today he actually proposed such a harsh method, could it be that his mind has changed?

Actually, what Liang Jia doesn't understand is that Zheng Yechuan can be moderate internally, but he will definitely not be moderate externally.

Just like the Dajin Kingdom created by Dong Qixiong, that is an illegal regime, Dong Qixiong and Liu Zhongzhi and those people are chaotic ministers and thieves in his eyes, so they naturally have to be eliminated directly and cut down the roots.

"Okay, according to what Zheng Aiqing said, you go and handle it quickly. Another point, when clarifying, it is necessary to make clear the collusion between Dong Qixiong and Liu Zhongzhi. ”

"The ministers obey."

After the ministers of the Administration Office left, Tang Sai'er and Chen Yueqiang came in together.

"Your Majesty, the minister has found out the source of the spread of the news." Chen Yue reported strongly.

"Did you arrest anyone?"

"Not yet, the other party is obviously a small minion, and the minister is waiting for the big fish behind."

"Sooner rather than later. Also, it's only been a long time, and other people's spies have developed into our capital, but your progress in Sichuan is not satisfactory, you have to reflect on it. ”

When Chen Yueqiang heard this, he knelt on the ground with a look of shame. "It's the minister's dereliction of duty, please ask the emperor to condemn him."

"Condemnation? How could I blame you, you have paid so much for the establishment of the Jinyi Guard, I can remember it in my heart. You can rest assured that as long as you do things well for me, I will not only treat you badly, but also your children and grandchildren. ”

"Thank you, Lord Long. The minister must be the emperor before and after the saddle, swear to follow, swear to be loyal. ”

"Okay. I know, in addition to finding out the source of the news, the spies sent to Sichuan must also be well controlled. In addition, the revocation of the Jianghu convening order for the assassination of Liu Zhongzhi and others now seems to be wrong. These guys on the rivers and lakes are not as powerful as the legend says. There are also the so-called assassins of your Jinyiwei and Dongchang, who are impassioned one by one, and as a result, they are living well, and now they have become my confidants. ”

"The minister is guilty." Chen Yueqiang knelt down again, and Tang Sai'er also knelt on the ground.

In fact, the pot in the East Factory should be meaty, and this guy swore that he would train assassins, but he still has no clue.

"Actually, the main thing is that the bounty is not high enough." Chen Yueqiang hesitated, but still raised his head and said. This is the standard set by the emperor, and he has never dared to say that this price is too low.

"Ten thousand taels is not high enough? How much does that cost? ”

"If the emperor sets the price at 100,000 taels, and then gives him a knighthood or something, there will definitely be countless people from the rivers and lakes who will go to Sichuan desperately."

"Then you didn't say it earlier?"

"Minister...... Can't. Chen Yueqiang smiled awkwardly.
