Chapter 533: Have You Ever Thought About Losing?

"Isn't it appropriate to suppress bandits?" When Chi Xinian heard this, he seemed to be interested, his eyes turned around Xu Ruxuan's serious face a few times, and carefully looked at every expression on his face, before he raised his eyebrows and said, "This palace doesn't understand, what's wrong with suppressing the bandits who are making trouble?"

"Could it be that in the eyes of Lord Xu, the matter of water bandits plundering the materials of the court and displacing the people should be forgotten?"

Even Pei Qincha on the side, after Xu Ruxuan said, frowned: "Governor Xu, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Your Majesty's sending the queen mother to do this shows that he attaches great importance to the suppression of bandits!

"Didn't you explain to this official yesterday, saying that this report did not explain to Your Majesty the situation of the water bandits' rebellion at the first time, firstly, because the water bandits were too strong and worried about reprisals, and secondly, because the water bandits are likely to have internal responses in the imperial court?

"Wouldn't it be a great thing if the queen could exterminate the water bandits and find out those moths that helped to cause abuse? You're here again, what are you trying to veto? ”

It is not a secret in the local area that the flooding in Pingxing was caused by bandits from the Luojiang River.

Therefore, as soon as the Qincha team arrived in Pingcheng yesterday, they were the first to ask Xu Ruxuan why he concealed the incident of not reporting the water bandits?

Even if Zhu Xiaohou Ye took people to the vicinity of Pingcheng to verify the disaster today, he deliberately left Pei Heng by Xu Ruxuan's side and continued to interrogate him about the details of the water bandits.

Originally, this discovery was tricky for them.

Because they didn't know about the water bandits when they set off, they didn't bring many useful people with them in this trip. The order to dispatch the sailors did not arrive.

Therefore, according to their thoughts, after figuring out the situation of the water bandits, they should report the matter to the imperial court as soon as possible and ask the imperial court to send troops to help.

But in this way, in the process of letters coming and going, how to ensure that the materials reach the hands of the people and are no longer plundered by the water bandits is also a big problem.

Pei Heng, who took over matters related to the bandits, was having a headache, but at this time he suddenly saw the queen, and even learned that he was here to suppress the bandits!

Naturally, he was so happy!

If the queen takes over this tricky matter, then no matter whether it is done well or not, he will not need to be held responsible!

But Xu Ruxuan, who is ignorant, actually said that it is inappropriate to suppress bandits? !

Pei Heng felt that Xu Ruxuan was too ignorant, and Chi Xinian didn't seem to be very satisfied with this person who refuted him on the surface. But even so, Xu Ruxuan still insisted on his opinion: "Niangniang, Master Pei, the lower officials said this after careful consideration.

"At the moment, although the situation has been contained, there are still many issues to be addressed in terms of refugee relief.

"Just for disaster relief and rescue, we need everyone in the yamen to move and rotate. In such a situation, how can we divide the manpower to suppress the bandits?

And that's just one of them.

"Second, at present, the common people have just lived a slightly more stable life because of the relief materials of the imperial court, and the situation has not had time to stabilize, so they will rush to war.

"If we can solve the problem quickly and solve the bandits at a devastating speed, we may be able to inspire the people. But what if you fight a protracted battle, or if you are not careful, and lose to the water bandits? ”

As he spoke, he first bowed steadily to Chi Xinian, and then continued: "Niangniang, the minister has no intention of doubting your combat ability, but victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, even if you are not 100% sure of winning the battle, right?"

"Then you, have you ever thought about losing?"
