Chapter 153: Climb Up
"Wait a minute." Yang Mu stopped her.
"What else does Your Majesty command?" Ji Ling'er was a little apprehensive, wondering if His Majesty was angry, or something else......
After all, I have been serving Your Majesty for so long, and which of the personal maids of ordinary aristocratic families was not broken at the age of fifteen or sixteen?
"Change the water." Yang Mu commanded lightly.
Change the water?
Ji Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and then her heart was relieved, and at the same time, she also felt a faint loss.
I was relieved because I was in a hurry this time, and I was not mentally prepared.
The loss is because he is speculating, does His Majesty really have no interest in her? This is undoubtedly the most unsuccessful for a female imperial official.
Immediately, Ji Ling'er took a group of palace maids to retire, went to the back room of the bath, added firewood and water, and slowly changed the water used by the women in the bath.
There was an episode in the middle, and Yang Mu didn't feel embarrassed, when he and Concubine Nuo slept together for the first time, there was a large group of palace maids next door, this is the rule of the emperor's family, even the palace maids are used to it, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
He looked back at one of the women.
"What's your name?" Yang Mu asked.
"Concubine Yao Mingyue."
"Oh, Yao Mingyue......"
Yang Mu went over the name in his mind, and remembered that when the girls introduced themselves, her voice was also the clearest, without a trace of procrastination and timidity, so the arrangement of being the first to stand up and face her fate this time was also reasonable.
"Why were you the first to stand up?"
"Concubine...... I want to climb up. ”
Well, in a pun, Yang Mu can be regarded as understanding.
"Whoa—"
Suddenly, Yang Mu rushed forward, directly picked up Yao Mingyue, put it on the edge of the bath, and pressed it under him.
Yang Mu could clearly feel that the other party's heartbeat was pounding, and the appearance of closing his eyes was infinitely shy.
……
The next day, Yang Mu woke up.
I felt that the whole person was dizzy, and when I looked sideways, there were several delicate women lying on the huge dragon bed.
No, it should be said that it is a woman.
Thinking of last night's madness, Yang Mu shook his head, feeling like an invincible knight, galloping and killing, fighting on the battlefield, maybe he hadn't made love with a woman for too long, and he vented all his energy on these four beauties, and finally ...... In the end, how did Ming Jin collect the troops?
Yang Mu couldn't help but raise his head, lifted the curtain, and found that there were some palace maids kneeling not far away, and Ji Ling'er was also not far away.
And where you are, it's the bath room!
In other words, after the absurdity of last night, she didn't go back to the bedroom at all, but Ji Ling'er commanded the palace maids to carry Long Qi into this bath!
At a glance, sure enough, at the gate, a door was removed.
Ignoring the four women who were sleeping, Yang Mu put on his robe and walked out of bed gently, seeing that there were still red bloodshots on the edge of the bath, and Ji Ling'er seemed to be standing in the distance napping.
"Hey, wake up!" Yang Mu pushed her a little funny.
Ji Ling'er woke up from a dozing and saw Yang Mu standing in front of her, her face immediately turned red, and then she ordered the palace maids to change Yang Mu's clothes together.
After that, Yang Mu also issued an order to promote these four beauties who slept last night to nobles, which can be regarded as a reward for them and encourage the rest of the women, after all, the harem is not a place to take care of them, this is the emperor's exclusive place to enjoy, whoever can serve well can get a higher status.
After having breakfast in a hurry, it is to deal with some political affairs, basically to wipe the butt of the corrupt Zheng court, abolish some harsh and bad policies, and gather the hearts of the people.
Then, some decrees were issued to appease the clans and officials in various places, and in the name of the righteous army, an army of about 30,000 people was recruited in Zheng Guozhong.
Unexpectedly, as soon as this decree was promulgated, it caused a huge repercussion in Zhengcheng.
Because, the food and lodging of the righteous army in the army are similar to those of the four major legions, the difference is only in the salary, which is one-third less than the soldiers of the four major legions, but even so, it is still a great news for the people of Zheng State, and the enthusiasm of the people to join the army is high.
If you continue to find this speed, Zheng Guo has a total of seventeen cities, and if you distribute them equally, it is estimated that within one day, 30,000 soldiers will be able to recruit them.
As soon as these 30,000 soldiers are in place, and with a little training, the entire Cangguo will have 80,000 soldiers!
The 80,000 regular army is unprecedented in the history of the two countries.
Such a decision, if it was before, would definitely make the major families scold the losers, and the generals in the army would not understand, but after this Northern Expedition, all the generals realized the difference between the regular army and the peasant soldiers, and especially agreed with Yang Mu's will.
In addition, with the current financial resources of Cangguo, the treasury of six million taels of silver is placed here, and it can definitely afford to support 80,000 soldiers.
Although it is necessary to consider inflation and dare not use silver on a large scale in the country, if a series of supporting policies are implemented, after the productivity of the people increases, the expansion will be greatly suppressed, and it is also possible to send caravans to the Dasheng country in the north to purchase and spend the silver in other countries.
On October 18, the White Tiger Legion and the Xuanwu Legion settled the battle on the Shen border and returned to their respective stations.
On October 20, the Cangjun squad returned to the court.
After counting, in just one month, the entire Zheng State has become the sphere of influence of the Cang State, and in another two months, the Zen Concession Ceremony can be truly held, so that Zheng Guo can be officially incorporated into the Cang State and become a part of the Cang Kingdom.
This time, the squad returned to the DPRK, not to withdraw with the army.
In addition to the Blue Dragon Legion, the other three major legions still followed the previous deployment, the Vermilion Bird Legion and the Xuanwu Legion remained in the territory of Zheng State, reorganized 60,000 righteous troops, and stationed them in several cities north of Zheng State.
Their main duty was not to suppress the rebellion, but to prevent the Dasheng Kingdom in the north from hearing the news and taking advantage of the situation to invade the south, and with this army of nearly 80,000 to resist, there was no problem in temporarily stabilizing the situation.
After all, the current rebels and the common people are welcoming the Cang army with both hands, and the people have never resisted at all, if Dasheng wants to invade, they will definitely unite to resist, even if Dasheng sends the whole country's troops to attack, it will never be able to be defeated overnight.
And Dasheng Guo himself is not only facing the enemy of Cangguo, and it is impossible to transfer all the troops.
With the strength of one country, it can still be guaranteed to resist the power of one army of Dasheng country.
On October 21, the Blue Dragon Legion, which had returned victoriously, returned to China and arrived in Cangcheng.
