After a half-day of discussion, the Qi court unanimously agreed that Zhang Huo's proposal was the most cost-effective way to save the cost of occupation.

Although this method is more time-consuming, it is also the safest approach.

Yang Hao really couldn't resist the desire for the great rivers and mountains in the south, and at this time he couldn't wait to recite a poem, how could there be another frontier in the south of the Yangtze River to express his excitement.

Although this sentence came from the mouth of Emperor Jinren, it was indeed the same as his mood at this time.

In the twelfth year of Hongwu, in late April, the Miao people invaded the border, and the border fortress Xuzhou City became the first battlefield of the Qi-Miao conflict.

With sufficient material reserves and strong city walls, the 1,000 Qi army withstood the attack of nearly 10,000 Miao people.

The beacon fire in the south was ignited, and Chang'an received an urgent military situation from the front, and Yang Hao immediately ordered a formal declaration of war on the Miao people.

After issuing a document against thieves, the Daqi Navy set out from Penglai Port and went down the coastline, preparing to cooperate with the army to eliminate the Miao people's troubles in one fell swoop.

At this time, in Lingzhou City, an important border town in Jingzhou, Yang Zhi happened to travel here.

He naturally already knew the news of the Miao attack on Xuzhou.

Yang Zhi was furious about this, and wanted to stay and escort the guards to Xuzhou City in person.

His idea scared Chu Xin and the others out of a cold sweat.

What kind of place is the battlefield, how can ordinary people go, not to mention that Xuzhou is now surrounded by heavy surrounding, just a few of them have passed, and they are not sending war exploits to others.

It doesn't matter if they die, Yang Zhi is a prince, if he has an accident, how can his family in Chang'an City have a good end.

After some hard persuasion by Chu Xin and others, Yang Zhicai ruthlessly gave up his ridiculous idea.

"Damn the Miao people, if it weren't for my Daqi, they would still be running around the mountains with bare buttocks, and the rats would dare to do this."

scolded the Miao people hatefully, and Yang Zhi said coldly: "Go, follow me to see Fu Yin!" ”

In the Lingzhou Mansion, Yin Songxizhong, the head of the Mansion, was about to drop the moment he heard that Yang Zhi had arrived.

When the prince of Great Qi arrived at the realm under his jurisdiction, he didn't get any news at all.

After getting the news, Songfu Yin didn't dare to delay for a moment, dressed up in the official mansion, and hurriedly rode a horse from home to the mansion.

"Xiaguan Songxi Zhong has seen His Royal Highness the eldest prince, but he didn't know that the eldest prince was coming, and asked His Royal Highness the eldest prince to forgive his sins."

Yang Zhi naturally didn't have any emotions because of this little thing.

Said to Songfu Yin: "I don't blame you at this time, I also heard that the Miao people were on the border when I just traveled here, can Songfu Yin tell me how the battle situation is on the front line?" ”

Seeing that Yang Zhi was so easy-going, Songfu Yin suddenly relieved himself.

"Your Royal Highness rest assured, the Miao people are savages, it seems that there are many people, and if you want to beat Xuzhou for a while, you are dreaming, a few days ago, the garrisons from all over the country have marched to Xuzhou, and as soon as the Qi Tianjun arrives, the Miao people can only wait for death."

I was relieved to know that reinforcements had already arrived.

He thumped his chair hatefully.

"Damn the Miao people, this time they will know how powerful I am."

Seeing this, Songfu Yin could only echo in unison.

The officials of Qi State all know that Yang Zhi is the most loved by Yang Hao, not surprisingly, the child in front of him is the future heir, and he can see the future ruler of Great Qi at this time, Songxi Zhong knows that his opportunity has come.

As long as Yang Zhi can remember himself and recognize his talents, maybe he will have the opportunity to enter the court.

The gap between the magistrate and the Beijing official is too big, even if it is of the same grade, the magistrate will unconsciously be a head shorter when he sees the Beijing official.

Songfu Yin recalled all the information about Yang Zhi, and said in his heart: "The rebellion of the Miao people, Your Highness doesn't have to worry, with my Daqi soldiers here, it will be calmed down in a few days, and Your Highness will come out of Lingzhou to go through Lingzhou with your Highness."

Although the capital is prosperous, Lingzhou has a unique scenery, and His Royal Highness should not have seen the track.

”

Yang Zhi raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he really hadn't seen the track, this was also one of the main purposes of his desire to come to Lingzhou this time, he had been extremely interested in these craftsmen since he was a child, how could he miss the unique scenery of Lingzhou.

"It's okay, let's do it, it's late today, and there will be Lao Fuyin tomorrow."

Songfu Yin was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly arrived: "This is what the lower officials should do, Your Highness will wait a while, and the lower officials will prepare meals for Your Highness, and relieve Your Highness's fatigue on the road." ”

Yang Zhi touched his stomach, this morning he only cared about the Miao people's side affairs, and he was indeed a little hungry at the moment.

However, he still has some reasons, after all, when he came out, he had already promised Yang Hao that he could not be extravagant and wasteful, and he stayed here to eat, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

"Fu Yin doesn't have to bother, just eat some casually."

"How can it be done, how noble Your Highness is, Your Highness just tastes the delicious taste of Lingzhou."

Yang Zhi hesitated, nodded and said, "In this way, it will trouble Fu Yin." ”

Songxi Zhong smiled and said, "No trouble, no trouble, Your Highness will wait a minute." ”

It's just that when he entered the table, Yang Zhi's face froze.

There were four or five dishes on the dining table, none of which were exquisite, and meals of this level were rarely eaten even in the palace.

Yang Hao has always been thrifty, never advocated extravagance and waste in eating, even as an emperor, he did not learn from the emperors of later generations, eating a meal and dozens of dishes, Yang Hao's meal is just an ordinary four dishes and one soup, breakfast is a bowl of millet porridge, two eggs, just pickled radish.

At this point, Yang Zhi has also completely inherited Yang Zhi's style.

When he saw such a high-level banquet, his first reaction was, what is this Songxi Zhong going to do, is he going to trap him in injustice? If this is transmitted back to the palace, how can he explain it to Yang Hao.

"Songfu Yin, what does this mean?"

Looking at Yang Zhi's cold face, Song Xizhong suddenly chuckled in his heart, knowing that he must have done something wrong, but he didn't know what he had made this young master unhappy.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"Humph! Songfu Yin lives so chic, I have walked all the way, and I have seen that there are still many people in Daqi who can barely fill their stomachs, and this case of food, exchanged for copper coins, is enough for an ordinary person to eat for half a month.

”

Songxi Zhong was not an idiot, and immediately understood what Yang Zhi meant.

This is a suspicion that he is corrupting, this is worth it, the law of Daqi is clearly stipulated, corruption is a big crime to kill the head, if this big hat is confirmed, not only will he be the end of the official, but his life will be difficult to protect.

Yang Zhi's words frightened him into a cold sweat, and hurriedly explained: "Your Highness misunderstood, these meals are prepared by the lower officials with their own money, although the lower officials are not talented and have no political achievements, but they will never do that corrupt thing, if Your Highness does not believe the lower officials, then a certain will take off this official hat, tie his arms, and wait for His Highness to deal with it." ”
