Chapter 114: Northwest Emergency

"Everyone has their own ambitions, since Lord Qin has made up his mind, this palace won't say anything, but people, go and bring the reward of Shikui."

The eldest princess saw that Qin Duan was unwilling to take refuge in herself, so she was not reluctant, after all, this kind of thing pays attention to your love and my willingness, and there is no good ending if you force it.

"Thank you, princess, for your understanding, this reward will be waived, and there are still some things to do, so I will leave."

Qin Duan got up and said, since he was stiff with the eldest princess, Qin Duan felt that he was staying, so he was a little embarrassed, so it was better to leave.

"Lord Qin, you are free."

The eldest princess said coldly, the eldest princess has grown so big, it is the first time she has been rejected like this, you must know that it is usually others who ask to join her banner, where is it like this Qin Dui, who does not know what to do, he deigned to invite him, he actually refused, it is really hateful, I really think that he has some talent and is amazing, if it weren't for Wei Zhongxian, the great eunuch of Dongchang, behind him, the eldest princess can treat him for a crime of disrespect now.

After Qin Du saluted the eldest princess, he left with the little cherry.

"Lord Qin, wait for me." As soon as Qin Duan walked out of the Yanyu Building, a pleasant woman's voice came from behind.

"Oh, is there something wrong with Miss Crazy Dream?"

Qin Duan asked with some confusion as he looked at the crazy dream who was chasing after him at the trot.

"Lord Qin, I read a few poems you made, and I really admire your talent, the little girl really admires it." Crazy Dream looked at Qin Du and said.

"Miss Crazy Dream is polite, Miss Crazy Dream, are you okay?" Qin Duan asked suspiciously.

"What? Does Lord Qin dislike that Crazy Dream is a woman in the land of smoke and willows, and is he unwilling to associate with Crazy Dream? Crazy Dream asked a little unhappily.

"Hehe, how could it be? If you don't help yourself, who wants to live in the land of smoke and willows, they are all hard-working people. ”

Qin Duan said, Qin Duan has never looked down on this daughter of Qing~Lou in ancient times, the women who engaged in this kind of industry in ancient times were a group of very poor people, they were forced to engage in this kind of industry in desperation, they were not to make money but to survive.

"I now understand why Sister Li and Sister Liu like adults, adults really deserve to be liked by us women." Crazy Dream said.

"Sister Li? Sister Liu? Do you know Li Xiangjun and Liu Rushi? Qin Duan asked in some surprise.

"Well, every time Sister Liu and Sister Li come to the capital, we are often together, we are good sisters, Sister Liu and Sister Li mentioned you when they wrote a few days ago." Crazy Dream said.

"It turns out that you are good sisters, if you need my help in the future, just come to me directly, as long as I can help, I will do my best."

Qin Du said, since this crazy dream is a good sister of her own woman, if she has any difficulties, she must help if she can help.

"Really?"

Crazy dream asked happily, as the Oiran of the eight alleys in the capital, it is really not easy, you have to be careful to serve every dignitary, you can not let people take advantage of it, but you can't offend others, otherwise you can only be unlucky in the end.

The bitterness of it can only be understood by people who beg for a life in the green ~ building, so many green ~ building women will find one or two backers for themselves, but after all, it is only a green ~ building woman, if there is really a problem, whether those backers can live is still two words.

But this Qin Duan is different, he is a man who is his good sister, and it can be seen from the letters of his good sister that there is absolutely no problem with this person's character.

As for the status, he is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, a member of the fourth grade, and he is also the number one person in the capital, and the average dignitaries and nobles do not dare to offend him lightly, and there should be no problem in protecting himself, a little woman in the green ~ building.

"As long as I can help, I will definitely help, I am now living in Wei Zhongxian's Wei Mansion, if you are in trouble, go there to find me." Qin Du said.

"Hmm." Crazy dream happily answered.

"Okay, it's not too early, I'm going back." Qin Du looked at the sky, the sun was almost setting, and said.

"Well, Lord Qin, if you have time, come to Yixiang Building, and wait for your lordship in Yixiang Building." Crazy Dream invited Qin Dui.

"Okay, I'll go when I have time."

Qin Du replied casually, and walked back with Xiao Cherry's hand, and the carriage was still waiting at the intersection.

"Master, I think this Miss Dream seems to like you." After walking away, Xiao Cherry suddenly said to Qin Duan.

"Hehe, you know what you like at a young age." Qin Du touched Little Cherry's face with some amusement and said.

"Master, you're so annoying, people are not young anymore, they have already slept with the master, my mother said, as long as a girl sleeps with a man, she will grow up and be a big girl." Little Cherry said a little unconvinced, thinking that the old man said that he was a little girl.

"Hehe, yes, our little cherry is no longer a child, it's a big girl, it's a big girl who has slept with the master." Qin Du said with a smile.

"Master, you're making fun of me again." Little Cherry said reluctantly holding Qin Dui's arm.

"Huh." Qin Du laughed and picked up the little cherry and sat on the horse parked on the side of the road.

……

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth year of the Apocalypse, late at night, Ye Xiang was in the mansion of Gao Shoufu.

"Elder Ge, what's the matter, why did you summon me late to wait."

After Zuo Guangdou entered the house, he said a little unhappily, too, Du was woken up from bed in the middle of the night, and it was strange that he could be happy, you must know that an official like Zuo Guangdou who needs to go to the court, he has to get up on the third watch day to prepare for the court, lack of sleep, and the court is easy to doze off, if he is discovered, he will be remembered as a big disrespectful crime.

"Let's talk about it when we all come."

Ye Xianggao frowned and said, Ye Xianggao is almost seventy years old now, and he is very uncomfortable if he doesn't sleep so late, but the matter is too urgent, so everyone has to discuss it before the morning court.

Three lights time passed.

"Everyone is here, let's start discussing, this is an urgent report from the west today, let's pass it on and take a look." Shoufu Ye Xiang Gao saw that the people were almost coming, so he passed the emergency report to Yang Lian beside him and said.

"Northwest Emergency?"

Yang Lian opened the emergency report a little anxiously to see that the northwest of the Great Qin Kingdom had been the biggest headache for the bigwigs of the Great Qin Dynasty in recent years.

Since the northwest of the Great Qin Dynasty was invaded by the Huns ten years ago, it has been dealing with turmoil, and the central control of the Great Qin State has become weaker and weaker.

That place can be said to be harassed by the small countries on the northwest border for three days, the people are not happy, the rebellions are continuous, and the bandits are numerous, plus the Great Qin Empire is now in rebellion inside, and there are neighboring countries outside, and it is currently unable to send troops into the northwest region to stabilize the situation there.

After the emergency report was circulated in everyone's hands, everyone's faces did not look good, and the situation in the northwest became more and more serious.

"It is unreasonable that the county guard of Tokugawa County in the northwest of the country was rushed into the house by the rioters and killed." Yang Lian slapped the table fiercely and said angrily.

You must know that the Tokugawa County Keeper is a member of the four ranks, and the person in charge of the party, government, and military affairs of the entire Tokugawa County actually let the chaotic people storm the mansion and be beaten to death by the chaotic people, what a ridiculous death, this is a slap in the face of the Great Qin Dynasty.

"What are the 20,000 local troops in Tokugawa County doing, and even the chaotic people can't be controlled? Let them break into the county guard's mansion and kill the county guard. ”

The second assistant Nalan Mingzhu also said angrily, the army in the northwest is becoming more and more unreasonable now, and it can't stop those small countries on the border from crossing the border to plunder, not to mention, even their own commanders can't protect it, this is the fifth county guard in the northwest region to be killed.

"It is not easy for Tokugawa Prefecture to have less than 10,000 military personnel, and it is not easy to suppress rebellions in Tokugawa Prefecture on a regular basis."

Zhang Delong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, opened his mouth and said, this is not Zhang Delong exonerating those soldiers in the northwest of the empire, this is indeed a fact, since ten years ago, after the war between the empire and the Huns, the soldiers in the northwest have been reduced by fifty percent, and the northwest has been in turmoil over the years, and the reduction of soldiers has become more and more serious.

It's just that other parts of the Great Qin Empire are also unstable, there are rebellions everywhere, and border frictions are also constant, and they have not taken care of the northwest, resulting in the northwest becoming a chaotic area.

"This is the first county guard in the northwest to die unexpectedly in the past few years?" Ye Xianggao suddenly asked.

"This is already the fifth, and if this continues, the empire's control over the entire northwest will become weaker and weaker."

Zuo Guangdou said helplessly, now many counties in the northwest have not listened to the orders of the imperial court, and some of them have violated the yang and yin, and the officials who listened to the orders of the imperial court were either assassinated or died in accidents, which made the imperial court very angry, but there was nothing to be done.

"Now that Tokugawa County is still under the control of the imperial court, we have to do our best to determine the candidate for this Tokugawa county guard, and I am worried that this Tokugawa county will also be out of the control of the imperial court." Li Chunye, the secretary of the ministry, said.

"Calling everyone here so late today is to discuss the candidate for the county guard of Tokugawa County, this matter cannot be delayed, the emperor will be played early tomorrow morning, and people will be sent to Tokugawa County in time, otherwise, the entire northwest region will be in chaos."

Shoufu Ye said to Gao. The northwest region of the Great Qin Empire is now in chaos, local warlords are grabbing territory, and there are people in chaos, if you don't send officials to sit in Tokugawa County in time, the consequences are really unimaginable.

After all, the entire northwest region is now under the control of the empire, and Tokugawa County is still under the control of the empire, in other words, that is, the county guard of Tokugawa County listens to the words of the imperial court, if you don't send someone to replace the position of this county guard in time, this Tokugawa County will be divided equally by the forces on the side.

You must know that now the Great Qin State really can't send troops to the northwest to stabilize the situation there, if Tokugawa County is also out of the control of the imperial court, it will be a fatal blow to the entire Great Qin State, which is equivalent to the empire's control of the northwest is almost zero.

But who should be sent? This is really a headache for the house, first, the people sent over must be strong, otherwise they will not be able to control the situation in Tokugawa County.

The second is that this person is a person worthy of the trust of the imperial court, otherwise if you go to that place in the northwest, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and you will not listen to the words of the imperial court when the time comes, and it will be troublesome to stand on your own mountain.
