There are two sides to everything.

There are pros and cons.

As Gongzizhang did, the practice of killing Qiang prisoners of war was indeed unacceptable.

However, Qingji never stipulated that generals who went out on expeditions could not kill prisoners.

For those aliens who do not pay attention to etiquette, righteousness and shame, burn, kill and loot on their own territory, and do all kinds of evil against their own people, Qingji has always been polite.

In view of this, Qingji was not disgusted by Gongzi Zhang's killing of Qiang captives.

"Edict of the widow."

"Add Wu Zhang, be the general of Zhenxi, increase the title of governor, supervise the military of Longxi and Saiwai, arbitrarily kill, and control the military and civilians in the county."

Qingji said slowly: "In the battle of Di Dao, Wu Zhang's contribution was indispensable, and he was promoted to the head of the military merit lord, and was rewarded with 500 acres of fertile land, 1,000 taels of gold, and 50 horses of silk. ”

"The rest of the meritorious soldiers will be coordinated by the Great Sima Mansion, and they will be rewarded or bereaved according to the usual practice."

"No!"

Wu Zixu, who was the great Sima, immediately agreed.

Qingji's reuse of Gongzizhang is undoubted.

Among the sons of Qingji, almost all of the people with outstanding abilities have been cultivated into the pillars of the country by Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, Wen Chong, Kong Qiu, Ji Za and others.

They have made more or less achievements in various fields.

In terms of handling internal affairs and making suggestions, Gongzihong has the strongest ability and has made a lot of achievements.

】

As for the military aspect, the sons of Wu Guo, who have made great military exploits and have been promoted to the high-level military meritorious titles of Zuo Shuchang, are Gongzi Fan and Gongzi Zhang.

It is conceivable that in the next war against the Qiang people, the young Gongzi Zhang will gain more merits.

Because, if you have the right to control the armies and kill arbitrarily, Gongzizhang can take the initiative to go out after the last performance......

Of course, ordinary generals would not dare to do this, because they would be impeached by the ministers and suspicious.

But Gongzizhang is Qingji's second son, and he is very favored, how can he compare with those outsiders?

"King, are the Great Wall and Guansai still being built?"

In the imperial history, Uncle Cheng asked.

Bo Ji and Qingji have been monarchs and ministers for more than 20 years.

Although Qingji is not a person who likes to be colorful, he has the air of an emperor, and his temper is not easy to figure out.

However, Bo Yan knew that Qingji was a great achievement, and he could be described as a "war maniac......

"Build."

Qing Ji said: "The widow is not ready to fight against the Qiang people at every turn. ”

"Although the construction of the Great Wall and the fortress will cost the people and money, it is also inevitable."

"Bo Woo."

"The minister is here!"

"You go to the area of Longxi and build the pass and the Great Wall. The required manpower and material resources can be reported to the widow, and the widow has only one requirement......"

Qingji glanced at Bo Yan and said meaningfully: "The Great Wall and passes in Longxi must be perfect, stand the test, and not cut corners." ”

"If the widow discovers that there is a problem with the Great Wall and the passes, from you down, including you, everyone will be severely punished!"

"No!"

Bo Yu hurriedly agreed.

Bo Biao is a person who understands current affairs.

Although he is a greedy traitor, he also knows what money can be greedy and what money cannot be greedy.

Such as military spending, disaster relief money and food, as well as money and materials used for project construction, Bo Biao would never dare to touch.

If it is something that others "respect" to themselves, Bo Yi can still laugh at it......

On the issue of the Great Wall and the passes, Qingji is not tolerant of any tofu slag project.

Because this is related to the lives of many border soldiers and civilians!

"The king, the minister has something to do!"

At this time, Yan Hui, the official residence inspector Yushi, stood up.

He is surnamed Cao, Yan's family, Minghui, Ziyuan, a native of the capital of Lu, living in the alleys, and is respected as "Fusheng" Yanzi in later generations, the head of the seventy-two sages of Confucius.

Yan Hui worshipped Confucius as his teacher at the age of thirteen, and was the most proud protégé of Confucius all his life.

Kong Qiu praised Yan Hui the most, praising him for being studious and benevolent.

Yan Huisu is known for his virtue and strictly follows Confucius's requirements for "benevolence" and "courtesy".

Kong Qiu often praised Yan Hui for having the four virtues of a gentleman, that is, he is strong in doing righteousness, weak in being admonished, being cautious in treating himself, and prudent in governing himself.

What he longed for all his life was to have an ideal meeting without war and hunger in which "the monarch and the ministers are united, the upper and lower levels are harmonious, the food and clothing are abundant, the old and the young are healthy, the four directions are salty, and the world is peaceful......

Yan Hui in history did not hold any official position.

However, at this time, Yan Hui was already an official residence inspector of the imperial history, and he was considered a minister of the DPRK and the central government.

"Say."

"The minister will impeach one man."

"Who?"

Yan Hui's duty is to rectify the mistakes of the ministers and to correct the public for the sake of celebrating.

Therefore, Yan Hui often impeached officials from the government and the opposition.

This is an errand that attracts people's hatred, if it weren't for Qingji, Kong Qiu and others to protect him, maybe Yan Hui would have "died violently" at some point.

"The person who wants to be impeached by the minister is the protector of the Western Regions Metropolitan Protector - Gongzi Fan!"

“……”

Qingji fell into deep thought.

The ministers above the court couldn't help but be in an uproar.

Yan Hui actually dared to impeach Qingji's son?

Gongzi Fan, that is a general who holds the power of the army and sits on one side!

In terms of power, Gongzi Fan can be said to be the biggest of the sons of Qingji.

Like Gongzi Hong, he served as the county guard of Chang'an County.

Gongzi Xi served as the county guard of Shu County.

Gongzi Zhang, served as the county guard of Longxi.

Even if Gongzi Zhang was added to the title of Metropolitan Governor and had a lot of privileges, he still couldn't compare to Gongzi's Fan.

Even if it is Prince Heng, in the final analysis, he is only responsible for sitting in Jinling, the eastern capital, and handling internal affairs, and his power is not as good as Gongzi Fan.

Because Prince Heng does not have the rest of the military power except for the Red Flame Army (East Palace Guard......

As the chief protector of the Western Regions, Gongzi Fan's main responsibilities are to guard the territory and secure the land, coordinate the contradictions and disputes between the countries in the Western Regions, stop the intrusion of foreign forces, maintain local security in the Western Regions, and ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road.

However, this is only on the surface.

Because the Western Regions Protectorate hangs outside all the year round and is an enclave of the Wu Kingdom, there are many privileges that Qingji has given to Gongzi Fan over the years.

"The king, over the years, during the period when Gongzi was the protector of the capital, he recruited soldiers and horses without authorization, forged weapons and armor, and went to the Qiang Land many times, and even crossed the Tianshan Mountains and Green Mountains to fight against the Cypriots."

Yan Hui sighed and said: "For the things captured in the war, Gongzi Fan does not report them, and does not hand them over to the national treasury, but uses them to recruit and train more soldiers and horses and build more weapons. ”

"To act like this is to be complicit in rebellion, and to ignore the law of the country as nothing! Please also ask the king to condemn Gongzi Fan to set an example! ”

Hearing this, Qingji shook his head and said, "Yan Hui, these are the privileges that the widow gave to Wu Fan in his early years. ”

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions, after all, is different from the county of my Wu Kingdom. The situation there is complicated, and Gongzi has the ability to expand the territory for my Wu country, why not? ”

"The king's words are wrong!"

Yan Hui said fiercely: "The king is so accustomed to being a prince, he can't do it!" ”

"Gongzi Fan has served as the protector of the Western Regions for seven years, and he has a very high prestige in the military among the countries of the Western Regions."

"It is said that there are no less than 30,000 people in the army of the Western Regions, and the armies of the Western Regions are the only ones who are looking forward to the horses! At present, the entire Western Regions has become an independent kingdom belonging to Gongzi Fan! ”

"In the long run, if Gongzi Fan has the heart to divide the Western Regions and establish a country and become the king, it will be easy!"

"Please consider the prince for the crown prince!"

Qingji understands it.

Yan Hui, where is this impeachment of Gongzi Fan?

is clearly targeting Qingji, impeaching Qingji!
