This is a major event related to the happiness of Sister Dong'er's life, Li Wenshan is even more anxious than Li Xia, hurriedly walked out to the second gate, first hurriedly ordered the little maid, please Mr. Guo come over quickly, turn around by himself, stride in, ask Mrs. Yan for eight characters, and instruct him again, he must wait for him to finish before replying.

Mrs. Yan, who was about to ask people to take the eight characters to the Great Xiangguo Temple to unite and be auspicious, hurriedly asked people to copy the eight characters of the two people to Li Wenshan, and watched Li Wenshan hurry out, frowning slightly, looking at the fifth brother like this, and the eight characters, there will be nothing bad together.

It wasn't until the night was dark that King Qin came out of the palace and sat in the car with a gloomy face.

As soon as he got out of the car in the second gate of the palace, Jiang Zhou, the secretary of the military department, greeted him, and when he saw him, King Qin was not surprised, and raised his hand to signal: "Go in and talk." ”

Jiang Zhou's jaw responded, half a step behind King Qin, Lu Yi followed last, the three of them were very fast, and it didn't take long for them to enter the courtyard of the study and enter the upper room.

King Qin went to the cloak from the waiter, cleaned his hands and face, watched the waiters make tea, and set up more than a dozen refreshments, before waving his hand to retreat from the waiter, picked up the cup and took a few sips of tea, looked at Jiang Shangshu and asked, "How long have you waited?" ”

"Two quarters of an hour." Jiang Shangshu replied.

"Well, you know quickly." King Qin took a few more sips of tea and put down his cup.

"It's the big mistake of the lower officials." Jiang Shangshu looked guilty and sad, stood up, lifted his front placket and knelt on the ground.

"Help him up." King Qin motioned to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi stepped forward to help Jiang Shangshu and helped him sit back on the chair.

"It's a big mistake of the lower officials, I'm afraid that I will have to implicate the prince and the lower officials...... Guilty. Jiang Shangshu looked distressed.

King Qin tilted his head slightly and looked at him carefully, "Jiang Shangshu, I'm not the emperor, you and me, if you have something to say, you and I, on a rope." ”

Jiang Shangshu was stunned, then showed a little embarrassment, was silent for a moment, looked at King Qin, and smiled bitterly, "Lord Wang, the military post is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and it must be the responsibility of the Ministry of War, but this mistake really can't be regarded as the fault of the Ministry of War." ”

"Hmm." King Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his upper body relaxed slightly, and leaned back on the back of the chair, "When I first heard Jin Xiang say that the reason why these two military newspapers were handed in together, I was stunned, and I wondered very much, the military post that was only more than two hundred miles away from the capital was festering to this point, with Jiang Shangshu's talent, why did it do this?" I think there must be a reason for this, you can tell me carefully. ”

"Lord Wang," Jiang Shangshu's eyes flashed with a hint of gratitude, "This military post, when Taizu founded the country, set the rules, each army rotates a team of ten people, and each military post is stationed in turn every year, which has nothing to do with the locality, and has always been extremely fast and easy to use.

In the second year of the emperor's accession to the throne, due to the tightness of the household department, the emperor said that the cost of the military post is not small, but the time is not much, it is a decoration, it is not cost-effective, so he changed the rules, and the local post station, by the local old and sick soldiers, Lu Mi than the same post post, changed to pay by the states and counties themselves, this military post, the management or the management of the military department, can be from people to money, the military department can not speak. ”

King Qin listened intently and sighed slowly, the emperor likes to save money in these uncost-effective places.

"If such a major event occurs, we must be held responsible, and this responsibility can only be borne by our military department." Jiang Shangshu sighed, "The prince has not been in charge of the military department for a long time, and he doesn't know about this matter, it is the lower officials who have affected the prince." I was afraid that the emperor had already ordered someone to strictly investigate the matter, and the lower officials drafted a plea for guilt. ”

Jiang Shangshu took out a fold from his arms and handed it over with both hands, "Please take a look at the prince, they are all old and incompetent." ”

King Qin took the fold, put it on the table casually, looked at Jiang Shangshu and said: "Since I am acting for the Ministry of War, the Ministry of War is responsible, and it is Jiang Shangshu's responsibility, that is, my responsibility." I didn't have the credit for being in front, and if I was guilty, I let Jiang Shangshu rush to the front. I know Jiang Shangshu's intentions. ”

King Qin raised his hand to stop Jiang Shangshu, who was still about to speak, paused, and sighed lowly, "Two military reports, two passes lost, whether the emperor wants to or not, this battle is going to be fought, at least those two passes must be recaptured." In this war, the military department can do without me, but not without Jiang Shangshu, now that the national crisis is at hand, you and I must first focus on national affairs. ”

"Lord Wang." Jiang Shangshu's throat choked.

"Let's do this first, the responsibility of the soldier, the emperor handed it over to Jin Xiang for a thorough investigation, first see how Jin Xiang's side investigates, with me, Jiang Shangshu rest assured, you go back and prepare for the war in the north." King Qin looked very tired.

Jiang Shangshu hurriedly stood up, took two steps back, and bowed to the end again before turning around and leaving.

King Qin motioned to Lu Yi to send Jiang Shangshu out, Lu Yi sent Jiang Shangshu out to the second gate, helped him to get on the horse, and then turned around and went back, and entered the study, King Qin had already changed into comfortable homely clothes, sat on the kang, and was looking at the letter.

"Sit." Seeing Lu Yi come in, King Qin handed the letter to Lu Yi, "Bai Jingning's letter, you see, the whole article is heartbroken, saying that I didn't expect the soldiers who were trained to be all fancy, and encountered a small group of pirates in Layue, three hundred to fifty, his people, even without waiting to get close, they fled in all directions, and afterwards he tried them one by one, those who came to be soldiers, almost all of them had a solid family background, saying that the locals sent their children to be soldiers, so that there were people in the army, at least not to be oppressed. ”

King Qin's words were full of anger, "The bullies of the Gaoyou Army are in the Gaoyou area, and even the splashing skin like Hu Panshi is far away, and they dare not provoke, and the Nan'an Army even has to temporarily avoid the edge and dare not move lightly!" The empire has festered to this point! ”

King Qin's words stopped abruptly, for a moment, he took a deep breath and motioned to Lu Yi, "You read the letter first, Bai Jingning said that he would go to southern Zhejiang to pick people, and there are a few copper mines, I don't understand this, you see, reply to the letter, and then explain to him, be patient, and remind him to pay attention to the top while doing things, alas, this matter is not in a hurry." ”

While listening to King Qin's words, Lu Yi had already swept the letter, "In the southern part of Zhejiang, as well as in the copper mines, Guo Sheng is extremely familiar, he has good knowledge, and there are things in the north, I will have a good chat with him in a while, and listen to what he means?" ”

"Hmm." King Qin nodded, his eyebrows suddenly raised, "Humble said that he wanted to invite Guo Sheng to his door, Guo Sheng refused, and did not leave him half a point of room to turn around, you probe and talk again, take a look at him more." ”

"Yes." Lu Yi agreed, withdrew, and instructed Chengying to quietly ask Guo Sheng to speak.
