In the end, hundreds of Vietnamese soldiers all died in the county office, and naturally some people will surrender, but they will not be forgiven, Shen Leng said, I can't do what the law can't forgive, and I can't forgive what the victim can't forgive.

The Ning army cleaned up the battlefield in the county seat, and the people on the street were still afraid, they avoided it from afar, every corner was what they thought was a safe haven, and it seemed that they could avoid all disasters by lowering their heads.

In the county office, Shen Leng, who had been fighting for a day and a night, sat down on the table, the blood stains in the county hall had not been removed, and the smell of blood was still there.

Chen Ran came in from outside, and he actually held a copper pot in his hand.

"Eat the pot and sprinkle."

He looked at Shen Leng.

Shen Leng laughed: "How can you get anything." ”

Chen Ran shrugged his shoulders: "Which one told me yesterday that the food was too vegetarian and let me make something delicious." ”

Shen Leng stretched out his hand to pull down the things piled up on the table, and made room for the table, Chen Ran put the copper pot away: "Now there is one thing missing." ”

"What?"

"Meat."

“......”

Shen Leng looked at him: "So you just found a pot?" ”

"The pot is all there, is the meat still far away?"

Chen Ran walked out: "Let me tell you, give me half a pillar of incense, and I can find you at least three kinds of meat." ”

Half an hour later, Chen Ran came back with a bag, with a little guilt on his face: "Otherwise, let's study how many shabu-shabu methods there are for tofu now?" ”

Shen Leng burst out laughing: "So you didn't find any meat at all?" ”

"What are you looking for?"

Chen Ran sat down angrily: "There were originally only about 10,000 people in this Tinglan County, after the war, more than 100,000 refugees poured in, not to mention cattle, sheep and pork, even the rats were caught by them, there is no shortage of food in the city, but the Vietnamese army will not distribute too much to the refugees at all, who knows how long it will take, the food must be stored to ensure that they have enough to eat, all the refugees have a bowl of porridge per day, barely alive, the mice dare not run around, just forget the meat." ”

Shen Leng thought for a while and said: "Let people open the granary, distribute the grain to the refugees, let them report and expose when they distribute it, and all those who are identified as the remnants of the traitors will be executed on the spot, and all those who identify the remnants of the traitors will be rewarded with five taels of silver, if it is verified that those who do not report the crime are guilty of the same crime as the traitors, they must be allowed to no longer unite with each other." ”

Chen Ran went out and gave an order, and when he came back, he said, "But our food is not enough." ”

"Our food is in the next enemy."

Shen Leng pointed to Daguang County on the map: "Wang Gendong took 5,000 people to go first, but there are too many rebels over there, and his 5,000 people can only stabilize the situation and not completely suppress it...... Let them go back, 100,000 men and 100,000 mouths, and if they preach, more rebels will surrender or flee, and the next battle will be easier to fight. ”

Chen Ran snorted: "Let's eat first." ”

He put the pocket he was carrying on the table: "Although there is no meat, it is still shabu-shabu, isn't it." ”

Shen Leng took the pocket and opened it and was stunned: "What is this tofu?" ”

Chen Ran smiled embarrassedly: "There is still a little bit of process left before tofu, soybeans are soybeans, in extraordinary times, if you can make do with it, you can make do with it." ”

Shen Leng sighed: "Copper pot shabu soybeans...... Isn't this special porridge? ”

Half a month later, Chang'an.

Weiyang Palace, East Warm Pavilion.

Because of the Pingyue Dao rebellion, His Majesty moved back to the Dongnuan Pavilion from the Wanton Maozhai, and the cabinet was outside the Dongnuan Pavilion, so that the ministers could be convened in time to discuss the matter, and it would be faster for the cabinet to tell him what he wanted.

There is a copper pot on the table, His Majesty personally cut the white tofu and put it on the table, the old dean looked at the plate of white tofu and smirked, it was like an old man who was almost ninety years old, and at his age, he was not dazzled, deaf and sharp-minded, which was also rare.

"I have just received the military report, and Shi Podang led the army into Pingyue without waiting for my will...... Shen Leng, Shi Podang, Ye Kaitai and the three of them led the army to march together, most of the rebellion in Pingyue Road has been quelled, Ye Kaitai ordered to open the granary to help the victims, and order is also being restored. ”

The emperor's tone of voice was a little more relaxed, but the old dean knew that it was impossible for His Majesty to relax in his heart, the rebellion was controlled, but what happened next made His Majesty even more troublesome.

Ping Yue said such a big thing, no matter what, Ye Kaitai is to blame, although the people who explain the matter know that this kind of thing is impossible to prevent, but as a person under the rule of Pingyue Daofu, there is such a big chaos, if Your Majesty does not have any punishment, how to calm the hearts of the people, how to shock the dynasty? The hardest and most tiring errand was done by Ye Kaitai, precisely because His Majesty knew that he was the most stable and capable among the old ministers who stayed in the palace, so he was asked to go to Pingyue Dao, before and after, from before the destruction of Nanyue to now, Ye Kaitai has been there for fifteen years, twelve years of Taoism, and his achievements are obvious to all, but after this incident, I am afraid that in the end there will not even have a good ending.

There is also Han Zhaozhi, Han Zhaozhi doesn't know where he has gone until now, he sent back the news that he brought people into Xishu Road to go to Yunxiao City, and then the news was cut off, how could the emperor not be worried.

"Stay ......"

The old courtyard glanced at the emperor, and stopped talking.

"What to leave?"

The emperor sat down opposite the old dean and asked, the old dean hesitated again and again, but he couldn't help but say: "Stay and dismiss the official?" Ye Kaitai worked hard in Pingyue Road, and he couldn't really be dismissed and imprisoned. ”

"Why do you want to be dismissed?"

The emperor snorted: "If I can't bear that pressure, the people around me won't be able to bear it for a long time." ”

The old dean was overjoyed, but he was soon embarrassed: "The National Law Dynasty, Ye Kaitai has to deal with it anyway, if this doesn't move him, I'm afraid it's ......."

"Move."

The emperor said: "Of course you have to move, but you still have to be sorry for him." ”

The emperor glanced at the old dean: "But sir, I can say sorry for him, it's not the national law that is sorry for him, but I moved him because of the national law and the outline of the national law that Mr. said. I don't believe that the rulers will be corrupted because of this...... But this move, I have to have the final say, I can move as I say. ”

The old dean didn't understand the logic of His Majesty's words.

"Let him go to the country of Miao, from the second grade of the Taoist Mansion to the third grade, temporarily take the position of the Daofu, let him go to the country of Miao, continue to clean up the mess for me, if the courtiers have any objections, then whoever is against it will let whoever goes, I was going to let Kang Wei go to the country of Miao, so I will change them, Kang Wei will be transferred to the Pingyue Provincial Government, and he will be transferred to the ...... at this time."

The old dean immediately laughed: "Originally, he was transferred from the position of the second assistant of the cabinet to the local post, which is a flat transfer in terms of grade, and leaving the cabinet is considered to be decentralized, Kang Wei must be uncomfortable in his heart, which also cuts off his way to become the first assistant in the future, but this time he was transferred to the Pingyue Provincial Government, which is enough to show that His Majesty attaches great importance to him and is an affirmation of his ability, and Kang Wei will also understand His Majesty's hard work." ”

"How can I have so much painstaking work, the ministers are difficult to govern, I only seek balance, so that they are all comfortable, and it is not good if they are uncomfortable."

The emperor sighed: "This is not my heart, I am tired." ”

The old dean smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this is an old plan......"

The emperor glanced at him: "Then you are an old treacherous and cunning." ”

The old dean laughed, and after a while, he asked, "What about Shen Leng?" ”

The emperor looked at him: "What's wrong with Shen Leng?" ”

"Your Majesty promoted Shen Leng's military position back before, and restored the general of Zheng Sanpin, but that is not a reward, after all, to repel the attack of the 200,000 Rilang army, this alone is enough for him to promote his military position back, and he should be the first to put down the chaos in Pingyue Dao, and he can't not be rewarded at all."

The emperor said in his heart that my son still needs you to remind him?

But it can only be said by the heart, of course, not explicitly.

"What does the gentleman think should be rewarded? He is too young, he is only twenty-five this year, and he is already the third grade, if he is promoted again, he will be from the second grade, and among the military positions, who can go to the second grade? The general of the four frontiers is, the general of the forbidden army is, and there is no one else...... Speaking of merit, which of the four generals is not more meritorious than him. ”

The emperor shook his head: "I can't go up again, I ...... from the second grade at the age of twenty-five."

He glanced at the old dean: "It's not impossible. ”

The old dean laughed, leaning back and back: "Your Majesty...... This is not a matter of His Majesty's thoughts. ”

"But no."

The emperor shook his head: "I just said, the ministers are difficult to govern, only for balance, I don't plan to treat Ye Kaitai ruthlessly, I can't reward Shen Leng ruthlessly, I demoted Ye Kaitai by two levels and transferred him to the side of the country, this is the limit that the courtiers can accept, if Shen Leng is mentioned from the second grade, they will fry the pot, so for the sake of balance, for the sake of Ye Kaitai, I can only grieve Shen Leng." ”

The old dean was silent and nodded: "Your Majesty's thoughts are reasonable. ”

The emperor sighed: "He is young, let him be wronged." ”

The old dean asked tentatively: "It's better to ...... Xun turned eleven, and gave the pillar country? ”

Now the generals of the four frontiers plus the generals of the forbidden army, the western Xinjiang talks about Kyushu is the Xun to the twelve pillar countries, the southern Xinjiang Ye Jingtian is the eleventh pillar country, the northern Xinjiang Wu Xinyu is only recently raised, and it is also the pillar country, and the forbidden army general Yuan Shu was also named the Great Pillar State two years ago, and Pei Tingshan, who was named the Great Pillar State more than 20 years ago because of his great achievements.

But they are all generals of the second grade, and Shen Leng is a third-grade general......

The emperor was silent for a moment: "It's okay, I will go back and let Lai Cheng think of a way." ”

The old dean looked at the copper pot: "Otherwise, call him over for dinner, so that he can talk a little." ”

The emperor glanced at the old dean, and then sighed lightly: "As the Emperor of Daning, do I still have to stammer him?" ”

Then he shouted to Dai Fangzhou: "Go and call Lai Cheng." ”

Dai Fangzhou couldn't help laughing, and ran out in response.

The old dean was silent for a while: "What if...... If Kang Wei is transferred to Pingyue Dao, it is time for Shoufu Yuan Toshiba to retreat. ”

The emperor's eyes flickered, and he nodded: "Yes, Kang Wei left the cabinet, Yuan Dongzhi must be unwilling and unconvinced, and when he is old, he will be confused, and he will be crowned the crown prince...... Ask him to go home and retire. ”

The old dean said in his heart, Your Majesty, you are not scolding Lai Cheng, you are forcing Lai Cheng, Yuan Toshiba retreats, Lai Chengcheng is the first assistant, Your Majesty is giving Lai Cheng the pressure on Shen Leng to ascend to the Zhuguo, it is estimated that Your Majesty will say to Lai Cheng in a while, you can't do this well, and you can't be the first assistant.

It's really cunning.
