Hearing Sun Hu's words, Tang Ning was also silent, he really couldn't say anything to blame. Those who serve as soldiers rely on food and pay to support their families, and if they can't get paid, they can't let the family starve to death.

Tang Ning originally wanted to say why don't you go looking for it, but thinking that the Nanshan camp had been cowardly and retreated, it would only be humiliated to go for it with this shame on your back.

Tang Ning's heart was also a little heavy, and it seemed to be much trickier than he thought. At least the matter of the salary must be solved first, otherwise, even if there is a way to eat in front of the stomach, it is nonsense.

Since the emperor wants him to revitalize the Nanshan camp, why can't he not pay him? Thinking of this, Tang Ning said in a deep voice: "This official will enter the palace to find the emperor to urge the salary, if the salary is down, then the door must be closed!" ”

Sun Hu was stunned when he heard this, and Tang Ning didn't care about him, and straightened his horse and galloped outside the camp. By the time Sun Hu came back to his senses, the new commander had already gone away.

Sun Hu sighed, shook his head and said, "Alas, is it young and vigorous, urging salary?" Isn't this asking for hardship and humiliation? ”

Perhaps when the new commander hits his head and bleeds, he will understand that this is an abandoned corner.

Sun Hu turned around and walked back a little lonely, and at this time, seven or eight people came to meet him, all of them dressed a little shabby, with an unnatural sadness on their faces.

"My lord, isn't there a new commander? What about people? I didn't expect Lord Dusi to come so quickly, but we were lazy. ”

"Hmph, if you are sluggish, you will be sluggish! It is unlucky enough to come to our Nanshan camp to be the commander of the capital, and it is estimated that he was also assigned by the emperor. ”

"That's it, they have all been assigned by the emperor, and they are no different from us. It's a pity to hear that the new commander is not yet twenty years old! ”

They also received a letter from the military department and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and knew that a new commander was coming.

But they don't know exactly what it is, because this is a forgotten corner, and it's like they're isolated from the world, and the only thing they think about is how to feed their families.

"By the way, what about the new commander?" After everyone talked about it, they suddenly found that they didn't see anyone else, only the commander of the service.

Sun Hu sighed: "Lord Dusi just entered the camp and scolded our camp door wide open, I explained, Lord Dusi left, saying that he entered the palace to find the emperor to ask for a reward!" ”

Burst! Burst! Burst! Listening to Sun Hu's words, these people actually sprayed one after another, with an incredible expression on their faces.

"Entering the palace to urge? Don't we, Lord Dusi, know what the situation is in our Nanshan camp? Still urging pay? What a humiliation! ”

"Forget it, after Lord Dusi finishes hitting the wall, I will understand, how can I stutter and not be hungry is what I have to do seriously."

Tang Ning galloped all the way back to the city immediately after leaving the Nanshan camp, he didn't expect that he would encounter such a tricky thing when he first took office.

But he had to solve this matter, and if he couldn't get paid, then whatever he did would be in vain.

If you want to revive the Nanshan camp, at least the salary must be paid, because only in this way can the soldiers practice without distraction.

After entering the city and coming to the palace gate, Tang Ning handed over his waist card. In fact, he was also a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know if the emperor would see him.

Although the emperor has always been kind to him and has repeatedly praised him, this is the first time he has asked to see the emperor, and the emperor has every opportunity, and he doesn't know what the emperor's attitude is, whether he will see him.

After waiting anxiously for a while, Tang Ning entered the palace smoothly, which made Tang Ning feel a lot more relaxed, which at least showed that the emperor did not send himself to the Nanshan camp and didn't care.

"The ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live." Tang Ning saluted respectfully.

The emperor rubbed his somewhat astringent eyes and said with a smile: "Get up, speaking of which, this is the first time you have entered the palace to see you!" How? What's wrong? ”

Since he had already come, Tang Ning made up his mind that he must ask for the salary of the Nanshan camp, otherwise there would be no need for him to return to the Nanshan camp.

"Back to the emperor, the minister went to Nanshan today to take up his duties." Tang Ning said in a deep voice.

Before Tang Ning could finish speaking, the emperor laughed: "So today is the day you perform your duties?" What happened to scare you back? ”

Tang Ning smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the minister went to the Nanshan camp early in the morning and found that the gate of the Nanshan camp had been wide open. ”

"The Nanshan battalion often delays and reduces salaries, and the last time the salary was paid was a few months ago, and the soldiers of the Nanshan battalion had to go out to work in order to make a living."

When the emperor heard this, he smiled and said, "There is such a thing? ”

Tang Ning complained bitterly: "This is indeed the case, Your Majesty, if there is no salary, then the soldiers of the Nanshan Battalion can only go hungry, so what kind of practice?" If this continues, the Nanshan camp will really be wasted! ”

The emperor smiled and said: "What you said is also reasonable, I will ask and restore the salary of the Nanshan camp." ”

Hearing this, Tang Ning actually understood, and the emperor actually knew about it. However, it was still a little unexpected for Tang Ning that the emperor could agree to pay him so happily.

Since the emperor is so supportive, Tang Ning is ready to climb up the pole: "Your Majesty, the Nanshan battalion's salary has become the norm, and I don't know when it will be issued." ”

"When the minister left the Nanshan camp, he promised that if the salary could not be paid, the minister would have no face to return to the Nanshan camp!"

The emperor smiled and said: "There must be a process for this salary, you go back first, since I have agreed, this salary will definitely be paid." ”

Tang Ning said in the period: "Your Majesty, this process won't be another few months, right?" ”

When the emperor heard this, he stroked his forehead a little, and smiled helplessly: "You kid! Okay, I'll give you a handwritten letter, and you can go and pay for it yourself, it's all right? ”

Tang Ning was pleasantly surprised when he heard this: "The minister bows and thanks the emperor!" ”

The emperor wrote a handwritten handwritten pen with a dragon flying and phoenix dancing, and after the ink was dry, it was stamped with a treasure seal.

Tang Ning happily took the emperor's handwritten letter, and after thanking him, he left the Qianqing Palace refreshed. With this handwritten letter from the emperor, he didn't believe it and couldn't urge him to pay the money.

After Tang Ning left the palace, he immediately went straight to the household department and the military department, and the officials of the household department and the military department were stunned when they saw this handwritten letter, and they had seen it many times, but they took the emperor's handwritten letter to urge the salary.

No matter which official needs to go through when he arrives at the yamen, as long as Tang Ning takes out the emperor's handwritten letter, everything is done neatly and smoothly.
