Chapter 519: His Highness (Extra 4)

"Your Highness, you can't go any further. The last general requested an immediate stop. ”

"I am nothing but a man who is entrusted with the work of loyalty. When I was done, I naturally stopped. ”

"Your Highness! Those are the soldiers of Great Qin, and their duty is to defend the rivers and mountains of Great Qin! And now he is doing such pickled things......"

"Pickled...... You call this a pickled affair......"

"Your Highness's forgiveness!"

"Yes, you're not wrong, it's pickled. However, it was not me who did it first, they did it first. And, there's more than that. What's more, even pickling is not what I want to do, it's their own people to do. ”

"But Your Highness, that's your ...... after all"

"Shut up! I'm not surnamed Qin! ”

"Your Highness, what a soldier you are! Gongye has ordered that all military salaries in Hezhou be suspended for three months. Three months later, there was no way out that a big war was about to start. When the time comes, will I let the army of Hezhou go hungry to fight? Your Highness, stop! ”

"What's the point of stopping now? Military pay has stopped. Let's do things. ”

"Your Highness, a messenger came from Taozhou, saying that he could lend it to Hezhou......"

"Lend to River State? Hehe! Over there, Gongye stopped paying military salaries, and it was stopped in the name of the emperor. Here, Shi Mi borrowed money and grain. Invite people to buy hearts? The Shen family is really a good calculation! ”

“…… But everybody has to eat. ”

"Don't I have the money to feed you?"

“…… Your Highness, you will show your feet. Qinzhou and Taozhou teamed up to do this, just to make you visible! ”

"So, you say, will I be visible?"

“…… No, you won't. ”

"Well, let's go and do things. Get that done, done. ”

……

……

The geographical location of River State is critical.

The Yellow River made a bend from here and headed straight north.

Moreover, there is also a tributary left: the water.

According to legend, this is the polar region of Dayu's water control, it is a famous river state, and the history and culture are extremely long.

Because of the dangerous terrain and abundant products, it has been a battleground for soldiers for thousands of years. Since the establishment of the county in the Western Han Dynasty, it has been contested by the Central Plains regime and the Western Fan Beiban and other places.

Therefore, there are three armies in Hezhou, there is a Tiancheng army on the northern border, there is a leveling guard along the water bank to the south, and the Zhenxi army is stationed near the Hezhou capital.

The three armies are each other's horns, and their forces are completely different. The Tiancheng Army was led by the Duke of Su back then. The Zhenxi Army was personally trained by Qu Haoge for half a year. As for Pingyi Shouchuang, because he has always been an honest and low-key person, relying on the water to eat and drink from the water, he has a better relationship with the neighboring Taozhou Momen Army.

- In fact, almost all the states on the border of Longyou are in such a state of checks and balances, which is a very obvious trend after ascending the throne today. So everyone tacitly agreed that they would rather be friendly with their neighbors than ally with the other tiger on their own turf.

The surname of Hezhou Thorn is Lin Haofeng, and he is one of the few local officials in Daqin.

However, he was an orphan from an early age, wandering from place to place, and it was only at the age of twelve or thirteen that he was adopted by a wealthy family with no children as one of many adopted sons.

It's just that this Lin Haofeng is talented and intelligent, and he is very good at reading, although he was enlightened late and only started the exam at the age of twenty-six, he was able to raise people to the top ten of the second class in one breath.

When the first emperor was very appreciative and asked him about his aspirations, he said: "Hezhou has been in war for many years, and the people's livelihood has withered. I can't forget the hardships of wandering when I was a child. I am willing to return to my hometown, guard the border for Your Majesty, enrich the people and strengthen the army. ”

The first emperor even approved it.

He only waited in the Hanlin Courtyard for half a year, and there was a vacancy in the county order in Hezhou, so he made up for it. However, two or three terms were transferred, and a state assassination history was achieved.

After ascending the throne today, he once ordered him to enter Beijing, and asked him face-to-face if he had the intention of entering Beijing.

Lin Haofeng said frankly and bluntly: "The northwest is born, the northwest is long, and the northwest is dead." ”

Today's big praise, rewarded the three products of the silver Qingguanglu doctor.

But this time in Hezhou, there was an incident in which the prince was attacked, which really gave Lin Haofeng a slap in the face.

In particular, Gongye Shi himself wrote a long rebuke on the blank edict: "...... Ruzhi Hezhou has been in Hezhou for half his life, but he has been neglected so far, which almost caused the royal family to collapse. Is it convicted? Punish him for half a year, immediately investigate all the officials under his rule, and if there are still cheats, they will be severely punished! ”

Lin Haofeng sent away the officials who came to announce the order, returned to the back office, and threw the edict into the brazier for heating with an expressionless face, but after three or five breaths, it burned to ashes.

Someone knocked on the door outside: "Envoy, someone in the temple has come to spread the word." ”

Lin Haofeng's two thick eyebrows furrowed fiercely, and he shouted in a low voice: "Idiot! Didn't you say you couldn't contact me at this time? ”

An ordinary-looking person walked in, saw him, and habitually folded his hands and bowed and said: "The host doesn't want to kill, there are living faces that have surveyed the surroundings, and the host ordered the little monk to ask the envoy: Those two people, when will the envoy make someone come and take them away?" ”

Lin Haofeng looked at him coldly: "I only let one person go in the temple." You yourselves will have many things, and you have withheld that one. Now that you have provoked others to come to the door, you want to push it clean? ”

"Make the king clear. The one was suspicious of His Highness and had to be detained. ”

Lin Haofeng snorted coldly: "If you still behave as usual, I'm afraid that his suspicions will disappear immediately." Kill and don't have the courage to kill, do you deduct and waste rice and grain? ”

As he spoke, he raised his voice and shouted: "Lao Luo." ”

A fat man from Luo Guo walked in, and his eyebrows lowered: "Envoy." ”

"Go to the temple, bring those two people out, kill them halfway, and abandon the corpse wilderness." Lin Haofeng said it easily, as if this matter had been done hundreds of times.

The messenger's hands trembled slightly, and he bowed his head and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha." ”

The fat man surnamed Luo glanced at him with disdain and indifference: "The cowardly bun who sells dog meat on the head of a sheep." ”

The man lowered his head a little more and said again: "Amitabha." The hood on his head accidentally fell off, revealing a bald head with nine incense scars burned.

……

……

There is a temple named Lingyan in Hezhou. The temple is in the Tangshu Valley, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is beautiful. Because Princess Wencheng entered the West in the former Tang Dynasty and lived here, she was very famous.

In particular, there are grottoes that have been excavated since the Jin Dynasty in the back mountain, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims who come to enjoy it.

The abbot of Lingyan Temple is a generation of high monks, who is compassionate and benevolent, merciful and compassionate, and is a living Bodhisattva praised by everyone in Hezhou Mansion.

However, in the depths of the cave of Lingyan Temple, there are still many inexplicable prisoners locked up, and everyone does not know.

"My Buddha is compassionate. Did you really command those two people to take their lives in your presence? The expression of silence was tangled and complicated.

The ordinary-looking little monk raised his sleeves to wipe his tears: "Yes, abbot." Disciples don't understand that no matter what we do, isn't it all for the sake of saving people's lives and quelling strife and war? But why do you do this, but kill people first? Abbot, what is the difference between us doing this and the executioners outside? This is not what we Buddhist disciples should do! Abbot! ”

Silent and bowed his head, chanted the Buddha's name, and his voice was sad: "Amitabha." ”

"Everything, for the sake of Your Highness." Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
