Hongling came out of the room and followed Chen Jinye into the hall, "Bai Ju, are you better?" ”。

Bai Ju nodded slowly, "Much better."

After a while, the maid brought the meal, and Chen Jinye asked casually, "Have the soldiers started eating?" ”。

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rest assured, the people and the officers and soldiers have already eaten"

Chen Jinye bowed slightly, "Then you can go down and eat too", as soon as Chen Jinye's voice fell, the two maids immediately retreated.

After eating, Chen Jinye slowly put down his chopsticks and said to Hongling: "Bai Ju has to go to the banquet hall with me for a while, do you want to go with you?" ”。

Hong Ling paused slightly, "Bai Ju's injury is just right, what are you going to do in the banquet hall?" ”。

"I need him to help me stabilize the morale of the army"

Hongling frowned suspiciously, "How can he help you stabilize?" ”。

Chen Jinye looked at Bai Ju quietly, and Bai Ju said: "The soldiers have been locked up for several years, and there is some resentment in their hearts, although the prince of Jinsong is no longer there, but the soldiers still have grievances against him, so we want to take the opportunity of the absence of the prince of Jinsong to inform the soldiers that I obeyed the order and killed the prince of Jinsong."

"Isn't that a lie?"

Chen Jinye looked at Hongling, "Not only that, but I also need you to tell me, in which direction did the imperial brother float away at that time?" ”。

Hongling's eyebrows wrinkled, "Chen Jinsong said, don't look for his corpse, he wants to be with Ruoniang."

Chen Jinye sighed slightly, "I naturally know the character of the imperial brother, but this method is the best way to eliminate the grievances of the people now, otherwise if these generals do not obey the order, it will be much more difficult and extremely difficult to rule Xicheng in the future, besides, I believe that the imperial brother will definitely be able to understand me doing this."

"What about Ruoniang? They were hugging each other at the time, I believe that with Chen Jinsong's character, he will never let go, if everyone sees that he is so willing to die, will everyone believe it? ”。

Chen Jinye shook his head slowly, "I naturally have my own method, you just need to tell me which direction he is going."

Hong Ling was stunned, she couldn't have imagined that Chen Jinye, who was still talking in front of her a few days ago, would now send someone to get his body back, just for the so-called stability of the army's heart, there is obviously a better way.

"I won't tell you"

"Why?"

Chen Jinye looked at Hongling with incomprehension, "I'm sad that Brother Huang passed away, but everything has already passed, isn't it?" Seeing that Hongling didn't speak, Bai Ju also helped: "Princess Niangniang, you can help the prince."

Hong Ling nodded helplessly, her expression was incredulous, "Everyone is already dead!" What are you going to do now? Grave digging? And it's not like there's no other way."

Chen Jinye was stunned for a moment and asked, "What good method do you have?" ”。

"Isn't it just to stabilize them, what do they want? It's nothing more than going home and being free, asking them directly one by one about their own wishes, isn't it ten times better than finding a dead man? ”

Chen Jinye looked at Hongling and said lightly: "But I can't let them leave like this."

Hongling's face was full of doubts, "Why can't you leave?" Haven't they been in Westside for ten years? Why stay? ”。

"Now, the situation in Xicheng is turbulent, if the officers and soldiers are disbanded at this time, then in the future, if a small country takes advantage of its unpreparedness, or there are mountain bandits attacking, how to ensure the safety of Xicheng, and Xicheng has one-third of the country's soldiers and horses, if it lacks this one-third of the strength, how can the country ensure its safety!"

Hongling was shocked by Chen Jinye's passionate words, and when she raised her eyes to look at this man with thick eyebrows, she felt a little more admiration in her heart, and slowly, Hongling said: "He went to the east."

With that, Hong Ling got up and left the table, without any other words.

After a while, Chen Jinye helped Bai Ju to stand up from the ground, and walked towards the banquet hall step by step, approaching the high platform, Chen Jinye and Bai Ju met many people, and the people also had gratitude on their faces.

With the support of the people, there is no need to worry too much about the soldiers rebelling.

"See His Royal Highness the Prince"

As soon as Chen Jinye entered the banquet hall, everyone got up to greet him, Chen Jinye waved his hand slightly, and the little four on the side saw it, and hurriedly took Bai Ju over and helped him instead of Chen Jinye.

Everyone talked about Bai Ju, and gave him a thumbs up from time to time, Bai Ju felt warm in his heart, only when he was with the prince could he be praised from the bottom of his heart, thinking so, Bai Ju respected Chen Jinye even more.

After a while, Commander Wu greeted him, "Waiting for His Royal Highness the Prince", Commander Wu's face was still impassive, and he didn't see any look of joy or dislike, Chen Jinye glanced at him lightly, and then introduced: "This is Bai Ju, this is Commander Wu."

Seeing Bai Ju's broken arm, Commander Wu was slightly stunned, and a little respect burst out in his eyes, "Bai Gongzi, I have admired my name for a long time."

Then Chen Jinye waited for Bai Ju to come to the high platform in the center, and Lu Yi and Commander Wu immediately gathered the soldiers and people together.

Chen Jinye looked at the many soldiers and people in the audience, and said slowly: "I have been staying with the people these days, and everyone knows who I am.

"A few days ago, Bai Ju injured his arm when he was building a dam with everyone, and when the flood came, he bravely fought the King of Song, and pushed the King of Song off the high platform and washed away with the flood, and then fell into a second deep coma, he is the pride of all of us."

"There is no other meaning to gather everyone in one place today, everyone can see that our Xicheng is now stormy, this is our home for all of us, and if we want to build this home well and restore it well, we still need everyone's joint efforts"

Speaking of this, the people in the audience can no longer suppress the grief and indignation in their hearts for several months, whether it is living in the streets and alleys or being slaughtered, or being attacked by the wind and waves again and again, all this has passed, just as the prince said, everything needs everyone's joint efforts.

Whether it is building a river dam or cleaning Xicheng again, all of this needs to be done by everyone, and at the same time, it can also give everyone a safe and stable environment and family.

"We have two important parts that we need to work together to solve, the first is the Xicheng River, we all know that Xicheng has to come twice a year in the rainy season, and now we have carried two floods in this year, so if you want to ask for such a fate in the future, the first point is to spare no effort to build the Xicheng River water conservancy."

"The second is the construction of our city, a few days ago we faced a massacre together in Xicheng, I believe that all the people are impressed and extremely impressed, that day we and our own villagers, and their relatives may have said goodbye, but such a day will never come back, we will build Xicheng well, I Chen Jinye dare to use the title of my prince to make a bet, as long as our Xicheng soldiers are in one day, then that day will never come again"

Chen Jinye's words made the people feel excited, and some officers and soldiers were also a little excited, but that excitement was not about how to serve the country, but about how they couldn't go back to their hometowns?

They have been underground for too long, so that there is no other entertainment except for missing their families over the years, at that time, Commander Wu often gathered the officers and soldiers together, just to occasionally chat with each other about the appearance of home, in order to comfort everyone's homesickness, and now, finally looking forward to coming to the ground, all this is all in vain after all?

After Chen Jinye finished speaking, the mood of the soldiers fell into a continuous downturn, Chen Jinye saw it in his eyes, but he had a lot of doubts in his heart, including promising the soldiers to go together to salvage Chen Jinsong's body, thinking that everything had been arranged properly enough, what did the soldiers want?

Xiao Si helped Bai Ju down the high platform and came to sit among the people, while Chen Jinye called Commander Wu to the corner in confusion and asked, "Why is everyone's interest so low?" ”。

Commander Wu slowly bowed his hand, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's arrangement has nothing to say, everyone will naturally be a little happier about being able to capture the Jinsong Prince, but the Jinsong Prince's death is a dead person after all, and the soldiers naturally don't care too much, it's just ......."

"Just how?"

"To tell you the truth, the soldiers are a thousand times more concerned about returning to their hometown than all other things, and even the ministers are already very homesick, not to mention those younger soldiers? Ten years have passed, and the old man in the family still doesn't know if he is still alive, where is there any other mind to build Xicheng? ”

Chen Jinye nodded clearly, and said slowly: "It seems that I should consider this aspect of the problem", and with that, Chen Jinye said goodbye to Commander Wu and rushed all the way to the outside of Hongling's room.

"Ling'er, I have something to ask for"

After a while, Hong Ling slowly opened the door, "What's the matter?" ”。

Chen Jinye looked at Hongling's face and said seriously: "At noon, you said that you can let the soldiers choose to stay by themselves, I want to ask you, how to implement it?" ”。

Hearing that Chen Jinye suddenly changed her mind, Hong Ling wrapped her hand around with curiosity and looked at Chen Jinye with surprise, "I think what you said at noon is very good, why did you change your mind again, isn't it that the soldiers don't buy it?" ”。

Chen Jinye, who had seen through it, grinned awkwardly and said, "What Ling'er said is right, the soldiers did listen to what I said, and they were not very interested."
