Chapter 376: Night and Day
ZHANG Zhongqing; "If this is the duty, why do you want the court to reciprocate? The salaries paid by the imperial court to the soldiers of the Jin Wuwei and the Shence Army were three times or more than those of the other armies, not counting the special rewards of the daily saints. The equipment and food of the Jin Wuwei and Shence troops are incomparable to other armies. You are in a prosperous place, you are by the side of your parents, wives and children, and you do not have to endure the desolation and cold of the bitter cold land of the frontier, and you do not have to endure the hardships of poor supply security. ”
General: "So what, we are guarding the imperial city, the heart of the country." ”
Zhang Zhongqing retorted: "It is precisely because of guarding the Son of Heaven and guarding the Imperial City that we should show our intentions and correct our attitude." The Holy One is already an extraordinary gift, and you ask for more in the Extraordinary Gift. Is this what you call loyalty and sincerity? ”
The surrounding soldiers chattered: "What Lord Zhang said is high-sounding. The treatment of the Shence Army is unique in the world, why don't you cut down the Shence Army and cut us, is it because we are easy to talk to? ”
Zhang Zhongqing: "We're just standardizing one by one in order. Don't worry, there will be such a day. ”
Zhou Qi ascended the high platform and held up the Shang Fang sword with both hands, "The Holy Lord has given this official a Shang Fang sword." If you have any doubts, or if you are unacceptable because of our reform measures, you can apply for demobilization and repatriation. The Holy One specially granted a generous reward of five hundred taels of silver for the cost of settling in. ”
You can choose to stay or go, provided that you do not interfere with the reform programme. Zhou Qi held the sword of Shang Fang in his hand, and he had life and death to seize power. The soldiers looked at each other, and the camp gradually quieted down.
The three of them stayed in Jinwuwei, and the team of thousands of people checked their household registrations one by one. Each person is responsible for a portion of the case file.
The three of them didn't meet each other, and they were all buried in the pile of papers. Wang Huai ordered his personal guards to be responsible for the food and living of the three of them. The soldier looked at the boss's face and didn't dare to show the three of them a face.
"Three adults, please eat." The soldier sets the meal on the table.
Stewed pork ribs with artemisia sprouts, grilled fish, stir-fried greens, egg soup, japonica rice. It is full of color, flavor and nutrition, and is matched with a reasonable diet.
The three of them sat around the table, searching, copying, and checking. Zhang Zhongqing suggested: "Find a helper." ”
Zhou Qi objected: "From here we will start to reform the malpractices, and we must ensure that nothing goes wrong." The mood of the soldiers has just settled down, and we can still get it done if we are tired and work a little more overtime. When we get to the Shence Army, they have too many soldiers, and we are adding more men. Once things are sorted out, there is nothing wrong with what to do. ”
The three of them have a lot of work and a lot of food, and basically don't waste meals. The soldiers came to clean up their rice bowls and saw that the soup bowls were all drunk. I admired, seeing that the three of them were not bloated, where did they eat the food?
A few pro-soldiers communicated privately, "Those few people are like rice buckets, they can really eat." ”
"We have a standard meal. The three adults are all impartial law enforcers, and they will be strict with themselves. We will allocate according to the ration of food, as much as we want. Besides, the general has already added vegetables to them. ”
The pro-soldiers who act according to the rules and regulations are still the same amount of dishes. The three of them often eat proudly, sweet and numb.
At night, I work with the lights on, work overtime until midnight, drum in my stomach, and pour a belly of water before climbing into bed to rest.
Zhou Qi looked at this matter with an attitude of calming things down. Wang Huai also fully supported, and his subordinates had complaints, so they inevitably did something secretly. What they were doing was a thankless task. Bear with me.
The three of them spent a month and ten months checking the household registration of all the officers and soldiers in the camp. Bring a few cases that need to be decided by the saint and ask Wu Zong for instructions.
Wu Zong met the three of them in the Zichen Palace. Seeing the three people with their belts getting wider in the past ten days, they couldn't help but be shocked. 652 Literature Network
Stepping down from the throne, he personally supported Zhou Qi, Zhang Zhongqing, and Liu Ye. "I haven't seen you for a few days, and the three Aiqing are emaciated and haggard so far."
Zhou Qi has become an awl face, and a pair of flowing broken starlight eyes on Liu Ye's face are becoming more and more eye-catching. Zhang Zhongqing, who is relatively strong, is a lot slimmer.
Wu Zong's tone lamented: "It was my negligence that made the three Aiqing suffer." ”
Gao Cang watched the three of them on the side for a few days, seeing the emaciation, and said secretly in his heart, Wang Huai, Wang Huai, why don't you understand the hard work of the saint. You support the evils of the Holy Lord's reform, and you must be kind to the ministers of the DPRK and China.
Usually the head is quite bright, why are you still stingy on the big issues of right and wrong? Takakura pondered for an opportunity to communicate with Wang Huai.
"Takakura, go and invite Gong Li." Wu Zong commanded him.
Gao Cang didn't touch the ground, and walked away silently. Soon Li Xiang arrived, with beads of sweat hanging on his head, and people over half a hundred years old trotted all the way to come.
"Give a seat."
Li Xiang sat down, picked up a silk handkerchief to wipe his sweat, his chest rose and fell, and he didn't breathe. Liu Ye looked at his father, his eyes full of distress.
Liu Ye's gaze fell straight on him, Li Xiang looked over, and Liu Ye's big eyes on his face became more and more eye-catching, flowing with broken starlight. The eyes unconsciously coincided with the face of another person.
Li Xiang secretly wondered, why did he think of Bao Chuan when he saw this child's eyes? His daughter is not related to the child in front of him.
If this child is a concubine in Wuzong's harem, his own contact is quite reasonable. But this child was a courtier of Wuzong. The leader of the young generation of both civil and military affairs. Willow Leaf lowered her head and looked away.
Zhou Qi reported on the results of their work. "Your Majesty, Wei Chen and others have investigated the scene one by one, and now they have counted a total of 5,825 people who can pay taxes and forced labor. These people did not include the parents of the soldiers, and Wei Chen and others considered that their children still had the obligation to support their parents, and loyalty and filial piety could not be both. Wechen suggested that the parents of soldiers be included in the scope of exemption from forced labor, so the parents of soldiers were not included. ”
Wuzong groaned and said for a long time: "I have a better salary than the previous emperors for the two teams of Jinwu and Shence Army to defend Gyeonggi. I have taken into account the issue of the soldier's support for his parents. ”
Zhou Qiqi said: "Your Majesty treats the soldiers with great kindness, but supporting parents is a virtue that has been respected by the sages of all ages. Your Majesty will be gracious again, and the soldiers will definitely be grateful to Dade. ”
Wu Zong asked Li Xiang's opinion, "Aiqing, what do you think of this matter?" ”
LI Xiang; "What Lord Zhou said makes sense."
Wu Zong: "Okay, report the population of more than 5,000 to the household department." ”
Wu Zong agreed with Zhou Qi's suggestion. Zhou Qi knelt down again: "Your Majesty, Weichen and others have found out several generals suspected of using the shadow of the door. Your Majesty is please. ”
Wu Zong took the chapter and looked at it one by one, "Moth, moth." Wu Zong's fingers tapped on the paper, and when he saw Wang Li's name, Wu Zong was silent.
Wang Li now holds the position of Lieutenant of Jinwuwei, this person he knows, when Wang Huai mentioned this person to him, he nodded in agreement.
