Chapter 385: Too Rich

"Qing'er, don't be rude to Master Cui."

Fang Shou heard that Jia Qing actually said to Cui Wenlong that he couldn't help but want to scold him, and said before Emperor Zhengqing.

"Yes." After Jia Qingying got down, he didn't seem to want to let Cui Wenlong go, but continued to look at him and said:

"May I ask Lord Cui, if the two armies face each other, and the enemy is chasing and killing because of civil strife, a general escapes and is chased and killed, and it happens to be met by our generals. So, should our generals directly arrest him and kill him, indicating that the two sides are incompatible? Or will you save it, use the Huairou policy, and take it for your own use?

If this general adopts the former, just to cut off a person's head in exchange for credit, in my opinion, how stupid! ”

Cui Wenlong understood what Jia Qing meant, but still had the idea of arguing with Jia Qing and said: "That general doesn't know whether this rebel will be a real traitor or a fake traitor, and he doesn't know whether this rebel will be valuable to his side. ”

As soon as Jia Qing heard this, he knew that if Cui Wenlong led the troops, he must be a conservative who seeks no fault and does not seek merit.

"If you can't judge the truth or falsehood, this is incompetence! Neither can judge the truth or falsehood, nor try to seek the truth, but for the so-called safety of the opportunity to change the situation of the battle wasted alive, this kind of general, in my opinion, is more killable than the general who lost the city and land!

If the city is lost, it can be regained. Once a good opportunity is lost, it can be a factor that can change the course of a war!

As the saying goes, one general is unknown, and the three armies are exhausted!

For example, this time, if we didn't get the news in advance, how could we guarantee that all the high-level leaders of the White Lotus Sect would be wiped out? If you can't finish the battle, with the huge personnel base of the White Lotus Sect, how much time will it take, and how much manpower and material resources will it cost the imperial court to suppress it?

And now, more than a month has passed since the encirclement and suppression of the White Lotus Sect, according to Zhan Yang, the entire White Lotus Sect seems to have completely disappeared, and it has hardly brought a little trouble to the land south of the Yangtze River and the imperial court. ”

Cui Wenlong was speechless, although he still didn't quite agree with Jia Qing's point of view, but seeing that he had even moved out his own credit as a bargaining chip, it was not good to argue with him anymore. Because, this time Jia Qing and Feng Tang's task was indeed completed very beautifully, which not only saved Emperor Zhengqing a lot of trouble, but also invisibly improved the prestige of Emperor Zhengqing in the government and the opposition.

After all, during the eight years of Emperor Zhengqing's reign, the dynasty was almost stable, except for the battle three years ago when the strong fought against the weak, and almost lost. That time, it was a matter of great damage to Emperor Zhengqing's prestige, because Shi Ding was the general of the Northern Expedition appointed by him.

The extermination of the White Lotus Sect is not a feat, but it is too beautiful and simple to win, I don't see that even He Shanbao's cadres have nothing to say about Emperor Zhengqing's act of not consulting with the imperial court and directly setting such an important state event?

Seeing that Cui Wenlong no longer spoke against him, Jia Qinghe laughed. This set of statements, but he had thought of it on the way here.

"Hmph, it's just a quibble! Could it be that you knew a few years ago that I would send you to encircle and suppress the White Lotus Sect? Don't think we don't know what you're thinking......"

Jia Qing's smile hadn't fully bloomed, and he listened to Emperor Zhengqing. It's just this last sentence that made everyone in the hall can't help but snicker.

In fact, they had discussed it before Jia Qing came, and they discussed it at that time, most of Jia Qing was motivated to use this golden house to hide Jiaojiao!

Jia Qing didn't seem to hear Emperor Zhengqing's last words, and said, "Although Weichen didn't know that His Majesty would send Weichen to exterminate the White Lotus Sect, Weichen knew that sooner or later the imperial court would liquidate the White Lotus Sect!"

In this case, the more we know about the White Lotus Sect, the less likely the imperial court will suffer in the future. At that time, even if I didn't go in person, I could have informed the imperial court of the news of the White Lotus Sect that I had learned, wouldn't it be the same?

Besides, it's not that hard, so why not? ”

In the end, Jia Qing felt that he was a good general and virtuous minister who was dedicated to the public and took precautions.

"Okay, you can save your words for tomorrow morning, and say it to those officials. Look, here, it's all about following Wang Xianjue, impeaching you for colluding with the White Lotus Sect, and the thief shouting to catch the thief. ”

Emperor Zhengqing pushed a stack of folds piled together separately on the imperial case, I am afraid that there must be nearly twenty copies!

"Okay, tomorrow Weichen will personally go to the Golden Palace and explain to them, it won't embarrass His Majesty......"

To put it bluntly, a courtier like Jia Qing, if the emperor doesn't want to deal with you, as long as he doesn't encounter a problem that makes the emperor thorny, nothing big will happen! But if the emperor wants to get you, then you wait, maybe one day you push down an old woman on the road, and it will become one of the crimes you will be charged with going to prison!

Don't you see, after the Jia Mansion began to fall, Wang Xifeng didn't know how to accept the silver hidden by the Shi family after raiding the house, Jia Lian was very worried, Wang Xifeng also said with a disapproving look, "What are you afraid of, didn't we also accept the Zhen family back then, there are many bigger than this." Therefore, even Jia Lian knew to scold her and said: In the past, even if someone accused us of rebellion, we were not afraid, but now it is different......

What's different? In the emperor's heart, the importance is different.

The defendant is not afraid of rebellion, it can be seen that such honors as Jia Fu enjoy in the country! Jia Mansion is like this, and today's Jia Qing is naturally even more so.

"Alright, you can get up too!"

Sure enough, Emperor Zhengqing did not intend to use this to judge Jia Qing's sin. Because, the guilty minister is not qualified to stand and speak in front of the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jia Qing was annoyed on his knees early in the morning, and hurriedly got up when he heard the words.

"What happened to Lin Ruhai's illness?"

Jia Qingxin said, if you want to ask about Lin Ruhai's condition, you didn't ask Imperial Doctor Zhang but came to ask me? But he said: "My father-in-law's body is very weak, and there are sword wounds on his body that have not healed, this time he has pretended to be sick for so long, and his body is even weaker, and now I am afraid that he can only recuperate in his hometown." ”

Emperor Zhengqing's face remained unchanged, and he obviously knew that Lin Ruhai had accepted Jia Qing as his righteous son. Suddenly, Emperor Zhengqing changed the topic and said: "Let's talk about it, what do you think about going to Jiangnan this time?" ”

The land south of the Yangtze River has always been the weakest place for Emperor Zhengqing, because the power of Wenchen there is too strong, so he wants to know more about the situation over there. He didn't have a chance to go to Jiangnan, and all the information could only be seen from the excerpts.

Jia Qingdao: "Where can Weichen have any ideas, the only feeling is that the salt merchants in Yangzhou are too rich!"

To be honest, Weichen used to think that he was quite rich, but compared with these salt merchants, Weichen instantly felt that he was poor haha.

Even, Wei Chen thinks that even Your Majesty may not have ......"

"General Jia, don't talk nonsense." Cui Wenlong was startled when he heard that Jia Qing actually wanted to compare Emperor Zhengqing with those salt merchants, and hurriedly stopped.
