Lu Xiangsheng's confidence was even stronger, and after bidding farewell to the emperor, accompanied by Wei Mulan, he returned to the team almost majestically, waved his hand, and went to the Daimyo's mansion. He took the rest of the people back to the Daimyo's Mansion before going to Denlai to take up his post.

The rest of the Qinwang army also followed one by one, but Hu Guang did not have time to say goodbye, and immediately drove back to Beijing, and there was still a lot to do in the Chinese New Year's Eve. Even on the road, he was not idle.

Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, was beside him, a horse's head behind, and said to him: "Your Majesty, after a part of the grain of the Jingshi is removed, it can only last for a month. ”

The grain in Jingshi is jointly managed by the factory guard and the household department, so Liu Xingzuo also knows the grain situation. After the two-day Jingshi crackdown was over, the emperor had already ordered that the prisoners and the grain that could be squeezed out be sent to Yongping and handed over to Sun Chengzong.

"Hmm!" Hu Guang knew this, nodded and then turned his head to look at Liu Xingzuo, he knew that Liu Xingzuo must have something to say.

Sure enough, I listened to Liu Xingzuo playing: "The last general has just received a notice that the grain collection situation in the provinces near the land of Gyeonggi is not optimistic......

"What?" When Hu Guang heard this, his face suddenly became serious, and he even strangled the war horse under his crotch, and asked in a louder voice.

Seeing this, the guards in front and behind immediately stopped, wondering what was going on on the emperor's side?

Liu Xingzuo naturally knew what serious consequences would happen if the food could not be helped, so after getting the news, he couldn't wait for the New Year, so he told him as soon as possible.

He replied with the same serious face: "It seems that since October, the food in the surrounding provinces has begun to be tight. At first, I thought it was due to the effects of the war. However, the last general just got a report from his subordinates, saying that now it is found that it seems that someone has been buying and hoarding at a high price since that time. The last general has ordered a strict investigation to see who is hoarding Qiju! ”

Hu Guang nodded when he heard this, and said to Liu Xingzuo: "Qing has done a good job, we must find out immediately, if there are not enough people, urge the local government to investigate together, this matter is not trivial!" ”

"The last will obey!" Liu Xingzuo's manpower is indeed insufficient, after all, half of the Jinyi guards are unusable, many of them are just names, and the rest of the manpower is scattered in the land of Gyeonggi, especially the Jingshi, many things need to be done together by the factory guards, and the manpower on hand is really stretched. For the affairs of the surrounding provinces, it feels a little powerless.

After Hu Guang finished instructing, he toe a little bit of the horse's belly, urging the war horse to continue to move forward, and at the same time said to Liu Xingzuo with a little emotion: "There are many businessmen, in fact, they are very smart and discerning. But their minds are not right, thinking that it will be difficult to make a fortune in the country. This kind of person, I will definitely teach them to be good people in the future! ”

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, many businessmen will make waves when they have money!" Liu Xingzuo immediately echoed, "Because of this, since Taizu, they have mostly suppressed them, but now that the world is declining, they are rich and a little unscrupulous!" ”

Hu Guang nodded, chatted with him while walking, and after entering the city, looking at the popularity in the city, there was a bit of a New Year's atmosphere, so he smiled and said to Liu Xingzuo: "Qing doesn't need to accompany me, go home, accompany ......."

As soon as I said this, I suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but pause. He looked at Liu Xingzuo, and suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Your family is still over there, right?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Liu Xingzuo's heart tightened, and he hurriedly replied, "Mother let the last generals and brothers escape, and she has already said that she will never drag them down, and if you want to use them to persecute the last general's brothers, you will die to make your will!" ”

When he said that, his voice was a little low and a little sad, but he didn't pause. After saying that, he fell into deep thought, obviously reminiscing about the past.

From the moment their brother fled, those families who remained in Liaodong were destined to have no good outcome. This worry has been buried in the bottom of my heart, and I have been reluctant to think about it. But today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and when the emperor mentioned it again, his thoughts surged up, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Hu Guang was also silent for a moment, and suddenly said to Liu Xingzuo: "After Lu Xiang is promoted to Denglai, he will set up a special force to specialize in a sneak attack for thousands of miles, and I asked him to cooperate with Neiying and be sure to rescue Qing's family!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Liu Xingzuo immediately rolled the saddle and dismounted, knelt on his knees, and paid his respects excitedly.

Hu Guang stopped the horse again, stretched out his hand to signal him to get up, and said, "I understand how your brother felt when he fled!" I also said that to protect the family and defend the country, the country and the family are one, and the secretary will do things for the country, and I will also consider it for the secretary! ”

Not to mention how grateful Liu Xingzuo was, at this time, less than thirty miles away from the Beijing Division, an army was rushing towards the Beijing Division.

This cavalry army was not very numerous, less than 700 horsemen, but it was very elite. When galloping forward, you can basically keep five horses in a row. First, a flag fluttered in the wind, and a big "Wu" character stood in the wind.

Suddenly, on the official road where they were running, in the distance of them, an army also drove up. The two armies were about to meet, and the cavalry had to slow down.

Under the banner, a person approached the young general led by him and said loudly: "Young master, I'm afraid we're late." ”

At this time, the army coming from the direction of Jingshi, except for the original Qinwang army, basically will not be anything else. That's why he said that.

That young general was eighteen-year-old Wu Sangui. He also judged what the house slave said, and couldn't help but show a trace of disappointment on his face: In the end, he still didn't catch up with the reward of Jingshi's meritorious deeds!

"Young master, rest assured, with the ancestor here, he will definitely mention the credit of the young master in front of the emperor, at least one guerrilla can't run!" The man was already a little old, and he spoke with confidence, obviously very experienced.

"Yes, the young master is a guerrilla at a young age, this is even more powerful than the old master back then!" The other man followed suit.

When Wu Sangui heard this, he still shook his head and said, "You don't understand, I want to go to the palace to show my face so that His Majesty can remember me." In this way, even if you don't promote guerrilla, it doesn't matter much!"

Thinking of the words he had prepared in front of the emperor, he was sure that he would definitely be able to touch the young emperor's heart! But if the Jingshi side has already dispersed, depending on his own level, at most he will go to see a military secretary, which is a pity!

Thinking like this, he was a little unwilling, and immediately urged the horse to hurry, and when he approached the team, he asked loudly: "Are you the Qinwang army who returned from Beijing?" ”

A general flag at the front of the team heard this and replied loudly: "Yes, I have been rewarded by the emperor, and I can go back for the Spring Festival." ”

The other soldiers who were hurrying were all happy, striding forward, and shouting, "Go home, it's the New Year!" ”
