Chapter 269: Someone from the Middle Court

A few days later, the battle reports came back one after another.

In addition to Shuzhou, which was previously taken by Yao Pingzhong, the remaining four states have also been recovered, of which Hezhou and Huangzhou have all surrendered out of the city, and the remaining two states have not suffered much damage.

Then there are some aftermath matters, the registration of the remaining officials in each city, those who have been lowered or those who have not surrendered, those who have fled and see the army recovered, and those who have run back, basically all the names of the people and the actions of the thief army after they came.

Then Zhao Ta sent the battle report and the roster to Tokyo quickly, and sat in Luzhou to wait for news from the imperial court.

The imperial court will definitely send a large number of officials to hand over the handover, and as for whether the previous officials are retained or questioned, it depends on their respective means.

At this time, the skills of these local officials were revealed, and Zhao Ta only put them under house arrest, but did not prevent them from passing letters to the outside world, so they crossed the sea, each showed their magical powers, and wrote letters to their own backers in the capital to complain about their hardships and beggars.

But let these people pass on the news to the outside world, it is not in vain, according to the official rank, the high one thousand taels, the low one thousand taels, no money sorry, wait for the court to send it.

If you don't have money and claim to be a clean official, then you have to ask you, a clean official, why Wang Qing took refuge when he came, or why Wang Qing ran away with his family before he arrived.

This money was collected to more than 200,000 taels, although it was not much compared with the gold and silver treasures that confiscated Wang Qing's palace, but it did not need to be handed over.

However, the gold and silver in Wang Qing's palace are one or two million taels of gold, as well as all kinds of rare treasures, if they are converted into silver taels, I am afraid that it will be more than doubled.

However, Zhao Ta can't hide all of his own home, and he has to give some to Emperor Daojun.

The money and financial resources spent on this expedition against Wang Qing are huge, and if it weren't for the surplus of the treasury in recent years, I'm afraid the court would not be able to support it.

But Emperor Daojun is a person who likes luxury and luxury, if he doesn't have money when he uses it, he has to think of other ways, and the following Cai You Wang Huang has all the bad ideas, and it is unknown to impose them on the people.

And now there are Tian Hu and Liangshan Weiping, and Fang La is ready to move, so he has to leave a trace of vitality for the imperial court, if there is no money, I am afraid that in the future, I am afraid that even the western army will not be able to command, then it will really be a landslide and tsunami.

In the end, Zhao Ta left a million taels of silver and a small part of the jewelry, and also left a million taels for the imperial court, and most of the jewelry.

As for the army, the soldiers don't need to be rewarded, they all have gains, even if they are not rich, a few copper coins and a few taels of silver can still fall.

Zhao Ta, the general who commanded the army, didn't give a cent, this can't be given, especially Liu Qi and others, if the money is given to these generals, once it is spread out to the character of Emperor Daojun, and then Gao Yu and others add oil and vinegar, I can't say how to be suspicious.

But Zhao Ta can't bring all this silver back to Tokyo, after all, a million taels is too much, and it is a problem not to be seen and sent to the palace at that time.

So Zhao Ta ordered Ouyang Bei to take the command of the ninth and tenth branches of Longwei Left Wing, and after Zong Ze and others set out on the expedition, they were sent to Fuzhou overnight.

In this matter, everyone must be avoided, and Zong Ze is no exception.

Fujian Road, as a place where Zhao Ta has always been cautiously operated, the less people know about it, the better, even if it is avoided by his own family.

Half a month later, the imperial court sent Jiang You, the secretary of the ministry, to bring a large number of officials to ask Huainan West Road.

Jiang You's person Zhao Ta knows something, this person is not a party with Cai Jing, and he has no dealings with Liang Shicheng, Tong Guan, etc.

Later generations of historical books commented on this person, probably with a straight voice.

To put it bluntly, this person is more upright and dares to speak, but Zhao Ta knows that this so-called straightforward voice is actually just speaking on behalf of Emperor Daojun.

The position of the secretary of the ministry is not something that anyone can do, he must be a letter and a minister, and he cannot form a party, even if the prime minister is privy to form a party, the secretary of the ministry cannot be a secretary.

The official department can only be the official family's own person, the mouth of the Daojun Emperor, and the one closest to the emperor among the scholars.

Yes, it is also called the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials.

Jiang You's comfort army, it stands to reason that now that the thief army is broken and the entire Huainan West Road is recovered, Zhao Ta should lead his troops out of the city to greet him.

After all, Jiang came with a holy decree, and there were seven kinds of holy decrees in the Song Dynasty, one was called a book, the second was a book, the second was a book, the third was an edict, the fourth was an edict, the fifth was an edict, the sixth was an imperial decree, and the seventh was an edict.

This consolation decree is a kind of book-making, called the consolation book, which is not for a certain person, but for the whole army, and it is the emperor's will to commend and comfort everyone.

Therefore, whether it is in accordance with the etiquette or the rules, the coach must take his subordinates out of the city to pick them up in person.

On this morning, in the two Huai pacification envoys, Zhao Ta leaned back on the big chair and said nothing.

The generals on both sides didn't know what he meant, and as the detectives kept coming to report, Jiang You's team had arrived three miles outside Luzhou City, and everyone was anxious.

Zong Ze felt that it was no longer possible to stop talking at this time, so he spoke: "Lord Wang, Jiang Shangshu's team has arrived three miles outside the city, I am afraid that it will not take long to reach the city, do you want to ......?"

"Sect Supervisor Army!" Zhao Ta sat up slightly straight, and said lightly: "You take the generals to meet you, you know the rules, and this king will not go." ”

"Huh?"

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned, the battlefield was victorious, the official family comforted the army, and the boss went out of the city to receive the order, which is actually a good thing, and Zhao Ta's reputation and prestige have been greatly improved, it is estimated that it will not be long before the storytellers of Luzhou City will make up a lot of stories to preach, but Zhao Ta doesn't want to go out of the city to receive the order?

"The prince ......" Zong Ze pondered his words for a while, and said: "The recovery of Huainan West Road is all up to the prince's strategy, if the prince does not go out of the city, his subordinates are afraid that their identity is not enough to meet the will of the consolation army, and the official family knows it, it is not easy to talk after all, and please think twice." ”

Zong Ze is a civil official, and he didn't have so many scruples when he mentioned the emperor, and he was also thinking about Zhao Ta when he said this, he really couldn't figure out why Zhao Ta didn't take the order.

This is a very normal thing to welcome the will of the consolation army, and there is no such thing as a meritorious master, he really doesn't know what Zhao Ta thinks.

Zhao Ta glanced at him and said: "This king has worked hard for the country in the past few years, several adventures, and now he is leading the army to rebel, nine deaths, and now the injuries on his body have not healed, he really can't ride a horse, and he can't get out of the city!" ”

When Zong Ze heard this, there was resentment in his words, but Lord Wang, you were injured before, but now you are so good, right? Just yesterday afternoon, I was racing with Yao Pingzhong!

He felt that he should still be persuaded, after all, Zhao Ta had the grace of knowing him, and he was guilty of sin, and it was Zhao Ta who found a way to exonerate his sins and promote him to this point.

"Lord ......"

"Say no more!" Zhao Ta waved his hand: "Now that this king is seriously injured and can't get on the horse, he still goes out of the city to receive something, and this king doesn't want to bring any more Rausch soldiers in the future, this time I will go back and resign from all positions in the court with the official family, this king ...... No more! ”

Zong Ze was immediately stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't get on the horse, so he stopped doing it...... Are you serious?

Yao Pingzhong clicked his eyes below, and stole a glance at Zhao Tan, really quitting? Don't want to lead troops anymore? It's not like ah, my lord, you hooked up with the three Uighur princesses, but if you don't have any soldiers in your hands, it won't be easy to leak things out in the future, don't you want to go to the Uighurs to be a son-in-law, right?

Zhao Ta saw Yao Pingzhong's small movements, and snorted coldly: "This king is gone, the sect supervisor army will go out of the city to receive the order, and this king will go back to the house to recuperate!" ”

He walked away without looking back, leaving only everyone sitting on their chairs and looking at each other.
