Chapter 306: Am I the Faint King?
Immediately afterwards, raid the house and eat all-you-can-eat at one time.
Just thinking about such a good thing makes me feel beautiful.
But it's a pity that this year's household secretary is honest and honest, and he can't find any black material from him. Even if the regulators sent a lot of manpower and material resources to investigate him, they didn't get anything out of it.
Looking at his elated appearance, Yang Guang couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart. subconsciously blurted out: "Hubu Shangshu, let me ask you, are you a corrupt official?" ”
Hubu Shangshu was still full of smiles, but when he heard this, he immediately panicked, knelt on the ground and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, where did you start with this, since the beginning of the minister's tenure, until now, thirty years have passed, but he has never been greedy for a penny of the court......
"Haha, I'm just joking with you, you're serious."
Yang Guang took the opportunity to smile and said: "Since you said that you have not been greedy, do you want to be a corrupt official?" As long as you don't form a party for personal gain, I will never punish you with a capital crime! ”
"Of course, if you can do everything so seamlessly that even I and the regulators can't notice it, that's what you're capable of."
"Your Majesty, the minister has no intention of being a corrupt official!"
Hubu Shangshu only felt that Yang Guang was testing himself, so he had a righteous face: "Moreover, the minister has been clean and clean all his life, and he is about to reach the age of returning to his hometown, how can he be willing to fall and join them in the same stream, causing his own self-inflicted life?" ”
"Okay, okay, I understand, don't get excited, get up." Yang Guang's face darkened, and he pulled the household book up.
And Hubu Shangshu still didn't dare to slack off, saying sentence after sentence, like a fly, buzzing in Yang Guang's ears.
After a while, Yang Guang regretted that he shouldn't have opened this conversation with him.
However, he also understood that his dream of cultivating a Heshen was basically extinguished, and it seems that not every emperor has the opportunity to enjoy such a thing as an experience baby.
They continued to wait for supplies.
However, after half an hour, suddenly a carrier pigeon flew straight towards them, and without Yang Guang's instructions, Yang Gonggong went to bring the carrier pigeon with him. Immediately afterwards, Yang Guang personally took down the secret letter tied to the pigeon's leg.
Open it and take a look.
Then, Yang Guang's eyes couldn't help narrowing.
"Bastard!"
Yang Guang's face turned blue and red for a while, and then he gritted his teeth and scolded angrily.
"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Yang Gonggong hurriedly asked.
"In the process of transporting the materials, I encountered the bandits, and although they finally drove away the bandits, they also robbed a lot of materials."
"What bandit is so bold that he dares to rob my Great Sui's supplies?" Yang Gonggong and Hubu Shangshu were stunned when they heard this.
"They have all become bandits, what else do they dare not do?"
Yang Guang's eyes were shining with a fierce light, and this incident undoubtedly inspired the murderous intent in his heart: "It seems that the progress of road construction is still slow, otherwise, how can those bandits have a chance to hide on the side of the road?" ”
"Gonggong Yang, pass on my will, send 3,000 elite soldiers over to exterminate that gang of bandits and snatch the supplies back."
"Yes!"
It wasn't until Gonggong Yang left that Hubu Shangshu shrunk his neck and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, how long will it take for the caravan transporting supplies to arrive in Jiangdu?" ”
"Come on, about two more hours." Yang Guang was in a bad mood, and replied without being salty.
"That's good, that's good." Hubu Shangshu couldn't help but rejoice, and then scolded the gang of thieves angrily: "These heavenly thieves know how to do these shady things, not to mention robbing the things of the official family, and they also like to play some pretense of doing things for the sky, which makes people sick to their stomachs when they look at it!" ”
"If I am a faint king, they will do the right thing for heaven, am I a faint king? Do you need them to do the right thing for heaven? ”
Yang Guang was also angry again: "I must let them know that the tiger's ass can't be touched." Once you touch something that I have, you have to pay tenfold, a hundredfold! ”
He had already decided in his heart that after returning to the palace, he would immediately organize the suppression of bandits.
It is necessary to exterminate all the bandit forces between Jiangnan and Jiangdu, otherwise, every time you transport supplies in the future, you will encounter trouble.
However, on the other hand, Yang Guang also regretted a little, he should not have sent Li Wei to Jiangnan alone in a hurry.
At least he had to wait until he picked out the generals who accompanied him.
Just like this time, if a military general led the elite soldiers to set off with the caravan, then no matter how bold those bandits were, they would not dare to attack the caravan of the Great Sui.
Two hours later, it was evening.
Yang Guang was very down-to-earth and gnawed on a baked cake, although this ancient baked cake was not as delicate as that of later generations, but it also had a unique flavor.
Just after eating and drinking, Yang Guang was drinking tea, but suddenly saw that at the end of the road, a caravan finally appeared.
From a distance, most of the people in the caravan were extremely embarrassed, and many were wounded. But it's no wonder, after all, I was attacked by bandits on the road.
After receiving them, Yang Guang first appeased them, and then personally docked with them.
The people of the caravan never thought that Yang Guang would personally go out of the city to greet them, so they were all in good spirits, and they had long forgotten about the previous attack, and then seized the time to connect with Yang Guang.
In a short time, the supplies were counted and sent to the state treasury.
Yang Guang held a thick booklet with a list of materials in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, and said in his heart that this Li wipe was really effective, and he had already raised so many materials not long after he went to Jiangnan.
Among these materials, there are a number of silk and satin, a number of gold, silver and jewelry, and some local products from the Jiangnan region, all of which are added together, with a total value of more than 40 million taels of silver.
And more importantly, these are all paid by the people willingly, Li Wei did not use force from beginning to end, nor did he use the "momentum" of the Great Sui to forcibly threaten them, in other words, even a copper plate in the materials is clean, let alone worry about the impact on the people's hearts.
"This Li Yan's personality charm is really not low, and he can almost break his wrist with me."
Yang Guang secretly pondered, in an extremely good mood, but it was undeniable that this batch of materials, after all, still had materials worth about three million taels of silver, which were snatched away by the bandits.
Therefore, Yang Guang returned to the Jiangdu Palace non-stop, and summoned Shan Daozhen directly into the Jiangdu Palace that night.
When the latter came, Yang Guang said directly to the point: "Shan Daozhen, I want to send you to suppress the bandits, do you have any opinions?" ”
"Nope!" Shan Dao is really very happy.
