Yecheng

Unlike Li Chengqian, who lived in the Taishou Mansion, Xu Shijie, the commander of the three armies, never left the barracks.

"Okay, good strategy, worthy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"

Xu Shijie looked at the letter sent by Li Chengqian and applauded.

"What's wrong with Daddy?"

Hearing the movement in the tent, Xu Qing walked in.

"My father is worried about how to deal with these soldiers of Northern Qi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has given me a good idea, you can take a look."

Xu Shijie handed the letter to Xu Qing, and also meant to teach him.

"Release 50,000 soldiers, and cut off the tendons of their right hand and their left foot, and give them three days' rations; Well, that's a brilliant idea. ”

Taught by Xu Shijie's words and deeds since childhood, Xu Qing also saw the beauty of this strategy.

The killing of prisoners is unknown, which not only ruins the reputation, but is also not conducive to pacifying the people of Yecheng; If you don't kill yourself and don't have so much military food to support these soldiers, just when Xu Shijie was in a dilemma, Li Chengqian handed over this letter.

"My father was worried that the prince would be confused by the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi and forced me to release these prisoners of war, but now it seems that I am worrying about it."

Begonia Duoduo obeyed Li Chengqian's instructions to recruit the surrounding recalcitrant forces, although Xu Shijie saw it in his eyes, he did not relax his vigilance against this woman.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a natural king, and I thought he was obsessed with women at first, but these days when I see Gu Weiyong and the patriarch of the big clan in the city helping us pacify the people of Yecheng, I understand his deep meaning."

If you can't beat it, you can't join it now, Li Chengqian didn't show that meaning, the night he stayed in the Taishou Mansion, Gu Qing'er, the Taishou concubine, climbed into his bed;

Gu Weiyong, a cheap old man, moved out of the Taishou Mansion, not to mention, but also helped him pacify the people of Yecheng.

These days, the patriarchs of the big clans in the city have successively offered daughters to him, and in order to appease the people, for the stability of Yecheng, he has smiled and accepted them one by one.

…………

"Li Chengqian, you obviously promised me that I would treat them well, why is this happening?"

In the study of Taishou Mansion, Li Chengqian was playing chess with Ye Mengyao, the daughter of the head of the Ye family of the Yecheng clan, and Begonia Blossom broke in desperately.

Yecheng originally had the four major families of Zhao, Ye, Qiao, and Zhen, and after Li Chengqian connived at the Qing army to destroy the Zhao family, the three major families who were still waiting and watching came to surrender one after another; Not to mention the money, grain and grass, he also presented the young and beautiful women in the clan, and the most eye-catching of them was this Ye Mengyao.

"Presumptuous"

"Your Highness is angry, Your Highness is angry......"

Afraid of being affected by the pond fish, Ye Mengyao lowered her head and said.

"You go out first."

Li Chengqian was a little disappointed, he waved his hand at Ye Mengyao, motioning for her to leave first.

"Yes, Your Highness."

It is said that a companion is like a tiger, and Li Chengqian, the prince of the enemy country who holds the power of life and death in Yecheng, is not another tiger?

Ye Mengyao followed suit and left the room.

"I thought you were a smart person who would figure it out for yourself; I didn't expect to be stupid like this, and I came to me with a snoring, who gave you the courage? ”

Of course, Li Chengqian knew why Begonia Blossom came to him.

"You promised me that you would treat them well, why did you lie to me?"

The begonias were full of tears and looked like they were collapsing.

Just now, she had seen the miserable appearance of the freed prisoners of war, some of whom she had persuaded to surrender only in the last few days.

"Lonely is not lying, I have treated them well......"

"You asked Xu Shijie to break their hands and tendons, this is called treating them well? Branding on their faces, is this called treating them well? ”

I always knew that the person in front of me was a demon in human skin, but Begonia Duoduo still didn't expect that he would be terrible like this.

"It's just that they broke their right hand tendon and left foot tendon, so they can't be soldiers, and they can go back to their hometown to be a farmer;

As for the face branding, it is to give them a long memory, and it is to deter other Northern Qi people and let them know the fate of going against my Qingguo;

By the way, Gu also asked Xu Shijie to send them three days' rations, isn't this enough to treat them well? ”

They should be grateful that I didn't kill them, and you should thank me for being true to my word, Li Chengqian looks like I'm a good person, and you don't know what to do.

"You, do you know that many soldiers committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river because they couldn't stand this humiliation."

"Oh, they all say that it's better to die than to live, and there are people who can't think about it; Okay, tell me about Lone, how many people died? ”

And this kind of person, I'm afraid it's not a fool, right? Although Li Chengqian didn't say it explicitly, the expression on his face was like this.

"No less than a thousand ......"

Begonia Duoduo muttered.

"It is normal to have a thousand such fools out of 50,000 people;

Duoduo, it was for the sake of your face that you spared the lives of these 49,000 people; If you think this is not good, there are more than 30,000 people, I let Xu Shijie watch and deal with it himself, what do you think? ”

After Li Chengqian said this, he smiled at the begonias, like a harmless big brother next door.

But this smile is undoubtedly a precursor to the devil's murder in the eyes of Begonia Duoduo.

thump

"Your Highness, Duoduo is wrong."

"It's good to know that you're wrong, but you're going to be punished for doing something wrong, are you ready?"

Everyone has a demon in their hearts, but Li Chengqian is the demon itself at the moment.

…………

The soldiers were half dead in front of them, and the beauties were still singing and dancing.

Li Chengqian didn't do anything, but the officers and men of the Nanqing Army still loved him well, and there was no one else.

Xu is God can't get used to seeing him so perverse, and Emperor Qing's holy decree has arrived.

"If so? That's really good news. ”

Knowing how much Emperor Qing thought of the power in his hand, Li Chengqian also planned to accept it when he saw it, and with this news, he just got off the donkey.

"Did my father say when he wanted me to return to Kyoto?"

Li Chengqian asked the eunuch who sent the message.

"Back to His Highness, the Holy One has not set a return date, but only said that he wants to celebrate His Highness in Longxing Hall on the day of the Double Ninth Festival." (Why does this world also have a Chung Yeung Festival, everyone thinks it still has to have.) ）

"Okay, I know what my father meant, when you go to return to the decree, tell him that he will return to Kyoto before the Double Ninth Festival."

There was still a month to go before the Double Ninth Festival, and it took 20 days to rush back to Kyoto from Yecheng, but Emperor Qing still left time for himself to do the handover.

"Your Highness, are you going back to Kyoto?"

As soon as the eunuch left, Gu Qing'er came up, she was afraid that Li Chengqian would leave her in Yecheng.

"Well, the war is over, and it's time to go back; You go and call Duoduo and Mengyao here, and you have something to say to you. ”

Gu Qing'er can be regarded as the master of the harem in the Yecheng Palace, Li Chengqian instructed her.

"Yes, Your Highness."

About half an hour later, under the leadership of Gu Qing'er, Begonia Duoduo and Ye Mengyao all came to the hall.

"I'm going back to Kyoto, would you like to go with me?"

Li Chengqian has a very democratic posture.

"As long as His Highness doesn't give up, Qing'er is willing to go to Kyoto."

As Li Chengqian expected, Gu Qing'er was the first to stand up and take a stand.

"Duoduo is also willing."

Begonia Duoduo was the second to stand up, but it was a bit unexpected by Li Chengqian, could it be Stockholm syndrome, after all, he didn't make a single shot at her.

"Your Highness, there are three days left before Meng Yao's father's sixtieth birthday, can you let Meng Yao accompany her father to celebrate his birthday and then go to Kyoto?"

Knowing that going to Kyoto means that you will never see your relatives again in your lifetime, Ye Mengyao pleaded.

"A little thing, there is nothing to do, and loneliness is not a harsh person."

For obedient women, Li Chengqian is still very tolerant.
