It turned out that Li Yi met Shen Wanru of the small jasper family by chance, and was deeply attracted to her, and the two fell in love at first sight and fell in love with each other, and soon reached the point where they were inseparable. This kind of unruly love soon reached the ears of Li Yinheng, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and of course he would not agree to this kind of marriage with the wrong door. Therefore, he obstructed in every possible way and resolutely disagreed with Li Yi marrying Shen Wanru as the wife of the main house, Li Yi, who had no choice, had no choice but to retreat and accept Shen Wanru as a concubine, and vowed that he would never marry again, so that Li Yinheng had no choice.

Although Li Yi and Shen Wanru are in love, they have not given birth to a boy and a girl in the past two years, which makes Li Yinheng's endurance reach the limit. Li Yi, who was under pressure, just took the opportunity of this release to come to Yunnan with a bird like a cage.

As Wanru, although he married a good man, he also knew that Li Yi had many difficulties. So now, my biggest wish is to be able to give birth to children for Li Yi, so that the Li family can inherit the ancestral business. It's just that this wish has not been realized, and the two of them should be quite entangled in this!

Looking at this lovely child lying in my arms, my heart is full of infinite love. Even in her sleep, she still has a satisfied smile on her beautiful face, and she has a husband to snuggle up to her, as if she is the happiest woman in the world.

Thinking of those female men in later generations, I can't help but sigh secretly, if the women of ancient times were so gentle and charming, wouldn't the men have fallen into the nest of blessings! I gently hugged her delicate and smooth waist and fell asleep unconsciously.

When I opened my hazy eyes, I realized that I had overslept. I got up very early after the crossing, and I actually slept until the sun rose high, which is not a good sign, it seems that I had a bit of a fun last night.

I hurriedly got up and changed my clothes, freshened up a little under the waiting, and hurried to the council room, it seemed that the schedule that had been arranged yesterday had to be postponed.

The council hall was crowded, and a dozen officials were walking back and forth there, and there was no patience anymore. I had to say hello to everyone in awkwardness, and then motioned for everyone to start reporting.

Qian Shitang first stepped forward and said: "The messenger who sent a letter to Tonghai arranged by the marshal yesterday set off early in the morning, and the lower official chose the secretary to join the army Li Hui to go, he can speak well and eloquently, and he should be able to leave a good impression on Duan Siping." The distance between the two miles is not far, and the letter is estimated to be delivered to Duan Siping's hands in the afternoon. ”

Seeing that I nodded, he continued: "According to the arrangement of the marshal, the envoy of the Great Yi Ningguo has embarked on the journey back to China this morning, and before leaving, he also thanked us very much for his hospitality, and hoped to meet the marshal in person to express his gratitude, but because the marshal has been tired recently, he has hardly rested, so he was politely declined by me. Xun Zaluo also expressed gratitude before leaving, and asked me to express my heartfelt thanks to the marshal on behalf of them, so I readily agreed, hehehe! ”

Hearing this, I smiled slightly, nodded my head and said, "Hmm! Under the current situation, we must maintain good relations with our neighbors, whether it is in the area of the country or the sea. Once there are no external worries, Yunnan will have a foundation for peaceful development, and only then will it have the time and energy to work for the well-being of the people. However, there may be twists and turns in the future development, and we just need to deal with it in a timely manner. ”

Although Qian Shitang was a little puzzled by my words, he didn't move, and after seeing me finish, he continued: "Dashuai, there is another important thing to report to you. Sun Thief and his henchmen have all been imprisoned, and the private wealth of Sun Thief has been roughly counted, and a rough calculation shows that Sun Thief and others alone have more than 56,000 taels of gold jewelry and utensils, and more than 7,000 other rare antiques, the specific number has been registered, and the treasurer will report to you the detailed account books later. ”

"Oh? There are more than 56,000 taels of gold alone? And more than 7,000 curiosities? "Hearing this, I was a little surprised, Sun Decheng had looted so much property in this small Yunnan, it seems that his appetite is really not small! During the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, gold production was still very limited, and a local official could own more than 56,000 taels of gold, which should be said to be quite amazing.

Of course, if you think about it seriously, these things are actually not much. After all, Sun Decheng has been in power in Yunnan for 17 years, and he only embezzles more than 3,000 taels of gold every year, and his level of corruption is far from that of the Qing Dynasty's Heshenke.

"Hehe, the Sun thief fell, Yunnan is full, so much property is enough for us to do a few more good things for the people, not at this time, let alone when! Hehe! I smiled lightly.

When the officials below heard me say this, their eyes widened in surprise, probably thinking, it couldn't be a joke! If you really want to do this, this new Xuanfu envoy is really fat! Anyway, this is the stolen money of the imperial court! Even if you are a big celebrity next to the emperor, how dare you use it without permission?

Although they didn't say it explicitly, I actually understood their thoughts very well, so I didn't go any further, but motioned for the report to continue.

At this time, Jian Zheng stepped forward and said: "According to the orders of the marshal, through a thorough search in the past two days, we have captured sixteen important accomplices of the Sun thief, five hundred other tooth soldiers and seven prisoners, counting more than 700 prisoners of law in the Dongchuan War, it has exceeded 1,000 people. It's just that there are too many people, so they can only be temporarily imprisoned in the barracks of Ningzhou Prison and Xicheng, waiting for the fate of the marshal. In addition, according to the situation reported by various counties, the Sun thief and the party in all passes, counties and townships have all been arrested, and are preparing to be sent to Ningzhou, and the specific number is still being counted."

I nodded approvingly: "The above prisoners must be strictly guarded, especially the sixteen felons, and they will be escorted into Beijing when they are declared to the imperial court, and there must be no problems before they are escorted." Now Yunnan is in ruins, and there are many places to employ people! Since the place of detention is limited, it is possible to consider making a person who has committed a lesser crime a labor service, which can be regarded as a redress for the crime. ”

"In addition, how is the adjustment and defense of the various passes, is it already in place, especially the White Mist Pass, which is not only the throat of the Shu Kingdom, but also an important pass to prevent thieves, there must be no mistakes, otherwise I will have to engage in military law if there is a problem, and I will not be merciful."

"Marshal Qiqi, yesterday we have received Zhang Bo's military intelligence express, Baiwu Pass has now been rectified, including the officers and soldiers of Baiwu Pass, 2,100 soldiers have all been in place. In addition, Baoshan Pass left Sun Chengye's 300 left-behind soldiers, which should be able to deal with ordinary emergencies. Yin Quan, the defense envoy of the Shengjing Guan, had already captured one hundred and thirty-two of his fellow Sun thieves and was on his way to Ningzhou. That's all we know so far. He Shoujie hurriedly stepped forward and said.

I nodded when I heard this, slowly came to the back of the handsome case and sat down, beckoned everyone to take their seats, and said: "Although the situation in Yunnan has basically stabilized, due to the short time, many clues, and limited energy, many things have not yet been started. For example, there are various issues such as rewards and bereavement for counterinsurgency officers and soldiers, the resumption of non-governmental trade, and the adjustment of border defense. At present, what needs to be tackled most is the issue of rewards and pensions for counterinsurgency officers and soldiers. ”

"It has been several days since the end of the counterinsurgency, and many officers and men have not eaten and slept in a timely manner, and there are still emotional fluctuations.

"In addition, there are many officers and soldiers who have died in the line of duty for the country and have been wounded in this counterinsurgency, and we must not ignore them, but must have a thorough and detailed understanding of the situation and find ways to solve the difficulties of their families. This issue is not a trivial matter, and you must attach great importance to it. In my opinion, General He will be fully responsible for handling this matter, and the necessary expenses will be collected at the treasury after I sign and agree. ”

"Marshal, the rewards and pensions of the officers and soldiers are huge, and I am afraid that there is not so much money in the treasury!" Qian Shitang interjected with a worried face.

"Oh! How much money is left in the storeroom! ”

"Qiyu Marshal, because the Sun thief wantonly used the treasury silver in the official treasury for the construction of the pseudo-palace and the purchase of honor guards and other expenditures, making the already stretched treasury even more empty, now the treasury in the treasury is only more than 5,500 taels, more than 13,000 yuan, not enough for our Yunnan expenditure in October, even if the tax is doubled, it will not be able to meet the needs of three months, it is really difficult."

I was secretly taken aback, I didn't expect that Yunnan was already in deficit to such a point, and this amount of money was not enough even for the bereavement of the soldiers, not to mention the financial operation of Yunnan's local government, and it seemed that it would not work if special measures were not taken. Fortunately, Sun Decheng left us a lot of money, which was enough for us to cope with it for a while.

"Xiang joins the army, you can read to us the list of accounts of Sun Thief and others who have been confiscated, and see how much wealth the Sun thief has."
