Chapter 169: Request
"Tile? Who is he? Ye Qianhuai asked.
He Qingchang shook his head and said, "At present, I only know the name of this person. I heard that he is not good at walking, but he is familiar with the art of war. The front line found out that Beidi would go south on such a large scale this time because he changed this person as a military advisor. β
Ye Qianhuai frowned.
She hadn't heard of this man in her previous life.
But in her impression, in her previous life, Gu Haiwang did only take a month or two to calm Beidi. It stands to reason that the changes that have taken place in the first life of the re-enactment are all in Shengjing, and there should be no changes in Beidi.
Now we have to win this battle first.
Ye Tianhuai immediately decided: "He Qing, I will send Shengjing and doctors from the government offices and medical centers in Zhongzhou, Yingzhou, and Qizhou to reinforce the front line to ensure that the plague will not spread." In terms of troops, is there anything that can be added? β
"Qizhou and Yingzhou are the closest to the Baishui River, Qizhou has 50,000 garrisons, Yingzhou has 30,000 garrisons, and tens of thousands of Tuntian troops. But......" He Qingchang paused and said, "The Ministry of War has sent a document of the Northern Expedition to the envoys of the two states, but both states have refused on the grounds that the troops in the state are insufficient. β
"Not enough troops? Although Qizhou borders the Liang State, since the Xingrui Dynasty, the Liang State is no longer enough to trouble, why is there a shortage of troops? Yingzhou is an inland water town, full of farmland, why do you need 30,000 people to garrison? Ye Tianhuai was puzzled.
He Qingchang showed a helpless look on his face, and said: "Qizhou reported that after Beidi sent troops, Liangguo also had a change, so now we can't transfer troops. Yingzhou is because the garrison has to assist Tuntian to collect grain, so there is no manpower. β
"What the hell! At the moment of the great enemy, the country is about to be broken, and they are still busy collecting grain? Send them their report, and I'll approve it. Ye Tianhuai was already angry.
He Qingchang answered, and after a while, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, with all due respect, the strength of these two states is not easy to adjust. β
"Why?"
"Qizhou is the state capital under the jurisdiction of King Yu, and the voice of the envoy of Qizhou is not as good as that of King Yu. No matter where the war has been fought in these years, Qizhou has not sent troops to reinforce it. Correspondingly, when the Liang State invaded Qizhou, Qizhou also solved it by itself, and never opened it to the imperial court. He Qing said.
King Yu.
The fire in Ye Tian's heart was half extinguished.
Dajing now has three hereditary princes, the most powerful of which is King Yu, in terms of seniority, Ye Tianhuai wants to call him an uncle.
King Yu not only has a high status, but also is a great hero who led the army to repel the Liang Kingdom back then. Don't say that Ye Qianhuai, it is her father, Emperor Shunping, who has to be polite to King Yu.
If he doesn't let go, then the soldiers of Qizhou are really not easy to adjust.
"King Yu's side, I'm going to go around, don't interfere with the military department first. What's going on in Yingzhou? Ye Qian said.
"Yingzhou Jiedu envoy and Yingzhou Zhizhou are sons and daughters, and Yingzhou Zhizhou is Chen Gelao's protΓ©gΓ©." He Qingchang replied.
Although he didn't say it thoroughly, Ye Qianhuai also understood.
Gu Shihai and Chen Yuansi fought to the death, in order to make the front line uncomfortable with money and food, they were both sick for a month, how could the people under him send troops to help Gu Haiwang at this time?
Ye Qianhuai sighed.
"Chen Ge Lao's side, I will find another way. You and the military are ready for a protracted war. Ye Qianhuai instructed, "From today onwards, you will report to me alone once a day on the situation on the front line. β
"We're in command."
He Qingchang answered but did not leave.
"Is there anything else?" Ye Qianhuai asked.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Kuraba's case has been put on hold for the time being. Weichen has a reluctant request, can the part about Nie Zhuochen be dealt with first? At that time, his case was closed as an accident, and the court did not give condolences and subsidies to his family, and his family lived very poor in the past two years, and the eldest son in the family dropped out of the literary school. The minister visited him several times in the past two years, but they refused to accept the minister's help. He Qing said.
Ye Tianhuai was a little surprised, she didn't expect He Qingchang to mention this matter. He has always been taciturn, and he never said much about things that don't concern him, and this can be regarded as the first time he has taken the initiative to mention something to the emperor.
Ye Tianhuai pressed the question in his heart and asked about his words, "Why don't they want your money?" β
He Qing sighed and said, "Mrs. Nie said that it is useless, but ......" He sorted out his tone and said, "Nie Zhuochen died in office, but the minister can't ask the court for an explanation for him, Mrs. Nie may be a little resentful, so she is unwilling to accept the favor of the minister." β
Ye Tianhuai was silent.
She recalled the case file that Lin Yuxiu had submitted.
She remembered that there was a key piece of evidence in the case file about Nie Zhuochen, which was a handwritten document found in Nie Zhuochen's relics.
The handwritten letter said that he found that Yuanshang Cangchang had colluded with the black market in the West Market to transport military rations, and he was going to collect evidence, and after collecting evidence, he would report it to the imperial court. The time when he was going to the warehouse to collect evidence was written in the handwritten book was the time when he disappeared.
At that time, Ye Qianhuai still felt that this Nie Zhuochen was really daring, and he dared to go to the warehouse alone to collect evidence.
Now, she felt that something was wrong.
If he was really a brave and unscrupulous man, how could he leave this handwritten letter? He kept the handwritten letter so secretive that it took a lot of effort for the Punishment Department to find it, obviously anticipating that something might happen to him.
But this doesn't make sense, since he has already sensed the danger, why does he know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer tigers. He could have reported it to the Criminal Department and handed it over to Du Jing and Gu Shihai for investigation.
Now that he is connected to He Qingchang's abnormality, Ye Tianhuai vaguely guessed a possibility.
If Gu Shihai actively ran this case to take the opportunity to move to Chen Yuansi, then He Qingchang was for Nie Zhuochen.
"He Qing, did Nie Zhuochen say anything to you before he died?" She paused, then added, "Did you already know how he died?" β
He Qingchang raised his head and looked at Ye Tianhuai.
The two of them glanced at each other, He Qingchang lowered his head again, paused, and said: "Before he died, he came to Weichen once, saying that he was going to check the whereabouts of the soldiers and rations in the upper warehouse, but the minister stopped him, but he still went later. β
"Mrs. Nie thinks that it was the minister who sent him to investigate the military rations, which caused him to have an accident, and she has been holding a grudge against this matter all these years, if there is no will of the court to overturn the case, she is afraid that she would rather live a hard life to the end than be helped."
"Since you have stopped Nie Zhuochen, why do you still have so much shame towards his bereaved family?" Ye Tianhuai's focus has always been on He Qingchang.
He Qingchang was a little speechless for a while.
"You know what he found in the warehouse, and you know what brought disaster to him." Ye Qianhuai didn't ask again, but stated categorically.
"Yes." He Qingchang did not deny it.
Ye Tianhuai frowned: "Why didn't you say it at the time, and you didn't report this case until now?" β
