Your Majesty, Wei Qing, the commander of the Qimen Army, and Shi Zhangyuan, the commander of the army, did ask my grandson for a war horse yesterday.

Ministers, you have to comment on the old man, aren't this Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan drinking the blood of soldiers?

Yesterday I heard that the two of them had punished those soldiers who were paid empty salaries, and I thought that they were all righteous people, and I thought that such a thing happened last night.

Do they not allow their officers to do this kind of thing of drinking the blood of soldiers, but only themselves? ”

The one who complained loudly is also a descendant of a founding hero.

Guang A Hou Ren Jing.

He looked like he was the oldest, and his hair was gray.

Ren Jing's ancestor Ren Ao came from Pei County, and was the first group of people to follow Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, although his reputation was not obvious, but he also represented a kind of dignity.

In fact, these marquis of the Han Dynasty have factions, and the most powerful of them is from Fengpei and the surrounding more than 60 founding heroes.

These people held the power of the country from the founding of the country to the time of Emperor Wen.

Although the descendants are much weaker, they are already inseparable from the Han one by one.

And there is a situation where you provoke one, and the rest dozens of families have to fight back.

As long as it doesn't really happen to Liu Che, Liu Che won't do anything to them.

After Guang Ahou finished speaking, the rest of the nobles all echoed and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Guang Ahou said is right, you can't let Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan act recklessly and break the rules of the army."

Although these nobles all tried their best to cry out for grievances and wanted Liu Che to make decisions for them, no one spoke for them in the court.

First, it is because most of the nobles have no official positions, only titles, and if Liu Che does not recruit them, they will not be too lazy to go to court one by one.

Therefore, in addition to these nobles who shouted grievances, most of the ministers in the court were not from their faction.

In the Jingdi Dynasty, most of the important ministers in the court were still descendants of meritorious officials, but now the situation is completely reversed.

"Are you still crying out one by one? I really don't know what kind of expressions Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan will have when they know your intentions.

Wang Sui read the recital presented by Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan to these old immortals. ”

Wang Sui is also in the same vein, these people Liu Che scolded are Wang Sui's uncles and grandfathers, and now he really doesn't want to miss this concerto, but Liu Che has already spoken, and he can't help it.

Wang then opened the piece that Wei Qing had presented him, and then slowly read out the content on it.

"Your Majesty, peace of mind.

Chen Weiqing and Zhang Yuan learned today that there were only 800 war horses in the army of Qimen, so they asked for 830 war horses from the sons and daughters of the nobles in the army.

Today, I hereby ask Your Majesty for the guilt, please punish the sins of the ministers, and stabilize the hearts of the public.

Ranchen's actions are actually for the great righteousness of the country.

The Jimen Army is the most well-equipped of all armies, and it often accompanies His Majesty.

Such an army is only 2,700 people, and it is not enough for everyone to be equipped with war horses, so the ministers think about the difficulties of His Majesty and the difficulties of the Han Dynasty.

Hearing that there are generals in the mansion of the great Han lords, and there are also some war horses, I understood the crooked mind and wanted to borrow the war horses in the hands of the nobles.

The war is imminent, although this move must be criticized by the court, but the minister thought that he could cut off one more thief's head, so he no longer hesitated.

If the 830 war horses that were asked for could enter the Qimen army, Chen Weiqing and Zhang Yuan were willing to resign from their positions in the army and surrender themselves to the horses and pawns for His Majesty, and beheaded the Huns and thieves for the Han Dynasty. ”

When the king had finished reading, he retreated to the back and hid in the shadows under the pillars.

Liu Che stood up abruptly and roared at the dozen or so nobles below.

"I heard it, I saw it.

Look at what people do, Captain Weiqing and Changshi Zhang Yuan are dedicated to the country, and they don't hesitate to offend you candidates, Guannei Hou, and the eldest concubine.

If you have evil intentions, you may not be able to hurt Wei Qing's family, but more than 200 people in Zhang Yuan's Mansion may not see the sun tomorrow.

This kind of talent is what the Han Dynasty needs the most at present, but because of some war horses that you don't use at home, you have to play a chapter to slander these people.

My face is gloomy, I am ashamed of Emperor Gaozu, and I feel sad for your ancestors.

After you people retreat from the dynasty today, the 2,200 war horses will be made up for the men's army, and the shortfall of the menmen's army will be 300 people, all of which will be borne by your government.

Let your families give me the beginning of spring next year to the Han to go north to kill the Huns. ”

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess is asking to see you outside the palace."

Liu Che frowned, although he didn't like women to enter the hall, he still nodded.

"Princess Xuanchang enters the palace."

After a moment, the eldest princess walked slowly towards the center of the main hall.

"Sister, why are you here today?"

Liu Che asked the eldest princess.

"Back to Your Majesty, my husband, Cao Shou, Marquis of Pingyang, heard that there was a shortage of war horses, grain and grass in the army, and he was worried.

However, he was too ill to come to see His Majesty, so I was asked to donate 1,000 horses, 1 million money, and 200,000 stones of grain and grass for him. ”

Liu Che was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Pingyang Hou Cao Shou does not dishonor the name of the ancestor Cao Shen."

After hearing this, Xue Ze, Marquis of Guangping, quickly knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.

"After the court, immediately do what His Majesty said.

When the country was important, the minister donated 100,000 stone grain and grass to the Han soldiers.

May my Han army win, and Your Majesty win. ”

After Xue Ze made a start, the more than ten people also immediately knelt down, those who had money donated money, and those who had food donated food.

Although Liu Che is not short of money and food at all now, no one will dislike these things to become more.

"Dahan Wansheng! Your Majesty wins! ”

When everyone fell to their knees and cheered, the sound almost broke through the clouds and reached the nine heavens.

The anger on Liu Che's face did not dissipate until this time, and a smile appeared instead.

Only after the war can the emperor's power rush to the top.

After the day of the dynasty, not only did the Qimen army receive 2,200 horses and 300 soldiers before dark.

The rest of the nobles who did not go to the court also donated money and food after hearing the news.

As for the war horses, they all donate as much as they want.

Anyway, as long as they don't go to the battlefield to fight, these war horses are really useless to them.

Liu Che saw that the empty warehouse that had been empty because the grain and grass were transported to the border land in advance became full again, and his mood suddenly became better.

Judging from Xue Ze's recital, this idea was Zhang Yuan's idea, so at the court meeting the next day, Liu Che directly raised Zhang Yuan's title to the thirteenth rank of the middle school.

And expanded the sealed fields in Zhang Yuan's house from 3,000 mu to 4,000 mu.

Now there is no military merit, and Zhang Yuan himself must stay in the army of the period, so the only one who can be sealed is the title, and there is no need to think about promotion.
