Chapter 72 Zhou Yu is here, will Xiao Qiao be far away?
The Imperial Palace, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
Tang Tingbai sat on the Taishi chair, holding a brush in his hand.
Practice your words on a huge piece of white paper.
Li Yuanfang and Jia Luo stood on either side.
And Zhang Tiandao, the head of the household department, sat opposite Tang Tingbai, a little embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, the minister agreed to the Ministry of Industry to build a public toilet, this thing is imperative."
Tang Tingbai smiled, turned his head and looked at Li Yuanfang: "Yuanfang, go open the window and ventilate." ”
Li Yuanfang nodded, and immediately opened the dozen or so windows of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Well?
Zhang Tiandao's old face turned red, could it be that he didn't scrape the soles clean, and there was still a smell?
"Zhang Butang, this kind of thing about the public toilet, you can go and discuss it with Lord Wang Changlin Wang."
"The people are used to being convenient on the spot, and it is a little difficult for them to go to the public toilet, so I think we can do a prize quiz, as long as you go to the public toilet, you will be given a lottery card, and a lucky person will be drawn every day to reward silver."
"Of course, this is just an immature idea of mine, you can discuss it with Wang Butang for specific implementation!"
Zhang Tiandao's eyes lit up: "The emperor is talented, this plan is feasible, the old minister will go to Wang Changlin, and the old minister will retire!" ”
After speaking, Zhang Tiandao was about to leave.
Tang Tingbai smiled: "Zhang Butang, I just gave you this painting!" ”
What?
Zhang Tiandao looked happy, the emperor gave the word, this is the first time after the emperor ascended the throne, he Zhang Tiandao actually has this honor.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhang Tiandao took the painting handed over by Tang Tingbai and opened it happily.
Seeing that picture, Zhang Tiandao was stunned.
What did the emperor write?
Cursive?
Books?
How does it crawl like a dog?
"Zhang Butang doesn't like it?" Tang Tingbai laughed.
"Hehe, old ...... Lao Chen likes it! The corners of Zhang Tiandao's mouth twitched, and he left the Heart Cultivation Hall as if he was fleeing.
This thing is disturbing at a glance.
……
Nothing was said all night, early the next morning.
Xuanzheng Palace.
"Your Majesty, a great victory on the front line!"
The commander of the Jinyi Guard made Li Yuanfang rush into the Xuanzheng Hall with a happy face, his face full of excitement.
"Your Majesty, the Xuanwu Army broke through the royal capital of Dali, captured all the members of the Dali royal family alive, and Dali successfully destroyed the country!"
What?
So fast?
Hearing this, a smile also appeared on Tang Tingbai's face.
"Hehe, Guan Yu is good, order the front-line army to continue the attack, take the whole of Annan within twenty days, and I want to unify all the vassal states!"
And the civil and military officials were also full of joy.
Especially Zhang Tiandao, the head of the household department, he knew that if the Xuanwu army destroyed Dali, he would definitely be able to snatch back a lot of silver, and the treasury of their household department would be a lot fatter.
Tang Tingbai sat on the dragon chair and was about to speak.
But at this moment, the voice of the system came!
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for successfully destroying Dali and rewarding the host king hero Zhou Yu."
"At present, Zhou Yu's implanted identity is Hubu Zuo Shilang!"
Well?
Zhou Yu?
Hearing the voice of the system, Tang Tingbai was even more pleased.
That's Zhou Yu, an existence on the same level as Zhuge Liang.
And now Tang Tingbai really needs talents, and Zhou Yu is very timely.
Tang Tingbai looked at Su Zhen: "Prime Minister, I heard that Zhou Yu, the left waiter of the household department, has a good ability?" ”
Hearing this, Su Zhen was stunned, and he didn't understand why the good emperor would ask a little Zuo Shilang.
"Back to the emperor, Zhou Yu, the left attendant of the household department, is just twenty-five years old this year, and he has outstanding ability, and after a few years of training, he can take over as the prefect of any of Dayan's mansions, he has this ability!"
Tang Tingbai nodded: "Then it won't be a few years later, Zhou Yu will be appointed as the prefect of Longyou, and Su Lie will be the chief soldier of Henan, and there will be no mistake in taking office immediately!" ”
What?
Su Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then ecstatic!
"The old minister obeys!"
Zhou Yu is from Nanshan, and Su Lie is his own son, so he is naturally also from Nanshan.
The emperor gave them the two feudal officials Nanshan in one go, and it seems that the emperor still trusts them the most in the entire court.
The faces of the people in Nanshan were also full of joy.
The reason why they developed Nanshan was not because they did not want to rebel.
I just want to report to the group for warmth, after all, as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and they must unite to make the emperor afraid of them.
Just then, a dirty official ran in.
"Minister Li Bai, meet the emperor, long live my emperor, long live!"
Li bai?
Looking at this dirty figure, Tang Tingbai frowned.
"You're not in Goryeo, why are you here in Kyoto?"
Li Bai gasped heavily, a little weak: "Your Majesty, do you have anything to eat?" ”
"Garo, go get him some food!" Don listened to Bai Dao.
Garo nodded, and immediately turned to leave.
And the civil and military officials were also full of curiosity, how did the dignified Goryeo general soldier, from the third grade, become like this?
Could it be that something happened to Goryeo?
Soon, Garo returned with a plate of roast chicken and a pot of cold boiled water.
Li Bai took the roast chicken and ate it in a big gulp.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Bai finally had eaten and drunk to his heart's content.
He lay on the ground contented, burping, not paying the slightest attention to the surprised gazes of the officials around him.
After a long time, Li Bai took a deep breath, and he knelt in front of Tang Tingbai again.
"Your Majesty, Goryeo...... Something happened! ”
What?
Tang Tingbai's face changed.
Just now he had a premonition that something must have happened to Goryeo.
When the civil and military officials heard this, their faces also changed.
"Something happened to Goryeo? How can it be? ”
"Goryeo is guarded by your 20,000 government troops, what can happen?"
"Could it be that there is a Goryeo royal family that has not been killed? So rebelled? ”
“……”
There was a lot of discussion among the officials.
Li Bai took a few deep breaths.
"Your Majesty, five days ago, Goryeo was preparing for the autumn harvest, but suddenly there was a locust plague."
"There is no grain harvest, and the people of Goryeo say that you have killed too much, which has led to heavenly punishment."
"With the help of some well-intentioned people, hundreds of thousands of people in Goryeo picked up hoes and attacked the local government and county government, stealing most of the grain, and they also began to attack other places to grab grain, and now hundreds of thousands of Goryeo people have seized one side and threatened to restore the kingdom of Goryeo."
"Although the minister and the government army fought desperately, there were too many people in Goryeo, and there was even Turkic support behind this, the minister discussed with Lord Di Renjie and could only ask the court for help!"
What?
Locusts??
Rebel???
Tang Tingbai's face gradually became gloomy, and the anger in his heart was indescribable.
This group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves!
At this moment, Li Yuanfang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, also walked in, his face full of anxiety.
"Your Majesty, something happened to Goryeo!"
"The Goryeo rebels have begun to loot the government and the food of the people, and even set fire to the houses where the people live."
"So far, the Goryeo rebels have captured Teng-gun, and they have threatened to let the people go to them if they want to eat!"
After listening to Li Yuanfang's words, Baiguan's face was also a little ugly.
Tang Tingbai took a deep breath: "Order the White Tiger Army and the Vermilion Bird Army to attack immediately and take Dengjun to grab back the grain!" ”
Li Yuanfang nodded and left.
Tang Tingbai sighed, his heart was clear.
The reason why the Goryeo rebels only grabbed food was to make the Goryeo people unable to afford to eat.
In this case, the resentment of the Goryeo people towards Dayan will become deeper and deeper, and it will be impossible to completely integrate into it.
"Order the Goryeo Prefecture to immediately open a warehouse to release grain, and I will never allow any Goryeo people to starve to death, and at the same time open the treasury of Kyoto."
"Li Bai, when you escort the grain back to Goryeo, you must remember that all the grain must go to the stomachs of the people!"
Li Bai nodded heavily: "The minister understands!" ”
And this time, the civil and military officials didn't say anything.
Although there is not much grain in Kyoto's grain depot, it should be enough for the people of Goryeo to eat for a few days.
As for a few days later, the White Tiger Army and the Suzaku Army are estimated to have wiped out the rebels, and by that time, the people of Goryeo will also have food, at least there will be no shortage of food in the short term!
Time flies, three days later.
Xuanzheng Palace.
Tang Tingbai was dressed in a dragon robe, and sat on the dragon chair with a pale face.
He had a war report in his hand.
The White Tiger Army and the Suzaku Army have begun to attack the Goryeo rebels in Tenggun.
Although the Goryeo rebels were not strong in combat, and some did not even have weapons and armor, they blocked the city gates.
Although the White Tiger Army and the Vermilion Bird Army were strong in combat, they could not open the city gate in a short period of time.
If the war drags on, then many of the people of Goryeo may starve to death.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now that you have read the battle report, what do you think?" Tang Tingbai asked coldly.
This......
Prime Minister Su Zhen was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, originally we planned to destroy the rebels, so that the people of Goryeo would have food, but now it seems that this will not work, so we can only transfer grain from all over the country." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Tiandao, the head of the household department, immediately shook his head: "Your Majesty, Dayan has experienced years of war, and many people can't eat enough, and the food in the treasury is limited. ”
Tang Tingbai nodded, indeed.
The victims of Goryeo are indeed a bottomless pit, but Tang Tingbai can't ignore it.
After all, these Goryeo refugees are now the people of Dayan.
After pondering for a moment, Tang Tingbai looked at the hundred officials: "What do you think of this method for the imperial court to buy grain from major families?" ”
