After the incident was successful, the new government immediately launched a purge of Gwanghae-kun and his cronies.

More than 80 people were killed and hundreds were imprisoned or exiled.

Along with the purge action, there are also rehabilitations and rewards for meritorious deeds.

Most of the "traitors" of the Gwanghae-kun era were rehabilitated, and a list of heroes of three ranks was drawn up.

However, due to the conflict of interests, it is easy to rehabilitate Zhaoxue, but it is difficult to draw up a list of meritorious heroes.

But what is more important than this is to gain the recognition of the suzerain.

Since Xu Guangqi, the envoy representing the Ming Dynasty, and Yang Chengying, who had a heavy army, were all on Phi Island, the new king first sent Li Yuanyi to appease Yang Chengying and meet Yang Chengying's requirements.

Soon, after the initial calming down of the incident, the new king sent Li Gui, who was second only to Jin Jin, to Phi Dao with 150,000 taels of silver and 30,000 stones of grain to meet Yang Chengying.

Knowing of Li Gui's coming, Yang Chengying opened the middle door and lined up the guard of honor to welcome this future minister, who is also a heavyweight of the "God of Wealth".

Yang Chengying was wearing a military uniform and saluted Li Guixing for the first time.

Li Gui returned the gift.

The two came to the tent of the commander of the Chinese army and sat down face to face.

Li Gui asked his entourage to take out the list and handed it to Yang Chengying to count.

"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness has learned that it costs a lot of money to transport the people, so you have added 50,000 taels to 100,000 taels of silver to show our country's determination to work together with your lord to exterminate Jiannu.

There are also 30,000 stones of grain, please count them, and the ministers will go back to restore their lives. ”

Li Gui spoke slowly and logically, not in a hurry or slowly.

Yang Chengying only asked Zhang Cunren to accept the list, and he didn't open it to see it.

"Your country is full of sincerity, I don't need to count it."

Yang Chengying smiled and said, "Please convey your thanks on my behalf after the envoy goes back." ”

"Do as you are told."

Li Gui's words changed, "It has been a month since the commander came to my court, and the soldiers under his command have never committed any crimes, and Jiannu did not dare to cross the border to attack, which is all the credit of the commander." ”

"Thanks to your country's help, I have the ability to defeat the prisoners."

Yang Chengying was also polite.

In fact, he is most afraid of this kind of formal meeting, and there are a lot of polite words, and he can't get to the point for a long time.

The key is that you can't ignore these polite words, and it's easy to miss the other party's thoughts.

For example, the sentence "Come to me for more than a month", the words immediately followed seem to be praising you, but they are actually pointing at you.

The people have almost moved, shouldn't you stay in the court anymore?

Yang Chengying finished his politeness, and also changed his words: "But the people have almost been transferred, and I should also lead the army to leave and return to Jinzhou Town." ”

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Li Gui pretended to stay, "Because of the presence of the handsome, the northern border of my dynasty can be so peaceful." ”

"There are some things waiting for me to do, and I can't stay long."

Yang Chengying said with a smile.

"Oh, that's right."

Li Gui began to think in his heart, how to talk to the other party about the canonization of the edict.

Then, he asked softly: "The agreement between Zun Shuai and Master Li at the beginning, I don't know if it counts?" ”

"Of course it counts." Yang Chengying said with a smile, "Although Li Erzhan died of illness, his music book is already in my hands. When I returned to Jinzhou Town, I reported the matter in detail to Governor Yuan of Denglai. ”

"In this way, I'll wait for all to be handsome."

The other party was so easy to talk to, there was some surprise to Li Gui.

Yang Chengying said: "It's easy to say, I'm doing what I should do." It's just that you need to be mentally prepared......"

Take money to do things, this is basic morality. But it can't make you feel relaxed, otherwise you will think that the 150,000 is not worth it.

The next time I ask someone to do something, I will despise it and not give so much money.

"Please." Li Gui's heart tightened.

"The Ming Dynasty is the suzerain, and if the public and others launch an action without informing the Ming court in advance, it will definitely be regarded as a 'usurpation' from the government and the opposition."

Yang Chengying said half-truthfully: "Li Erzhan died of illness and death without proof of death, so there will be repeated canonization edicts, I hope you are mentally prepared." ”

Li Gui had already been mentally prepared for this, and when he heard the other party say this, his heart was still like a thousand pounds in his heart.

What made him feel even more stressed was the next word.

"The public is under the banner of serving the country, but don't hurt Guanghaijun's life, otherwise it will completely annoy Daming."

Yang Chengying's eyes were calm, "If the Son of Heaven orders me to send troops, although I don't want to meet with all the soldiers, I have to do it because the king's order is difficult to disobey." ”

After succeeding in seizing the throne, he couldn't kill the previous king, how could the current king be at ease.

But in the face of the Jinzhou Army, Li Gui was completely unsure that he would be able to win, and all his previous efforts came to naught.

Thinking of this, Li Gui pretended to be calm and arched his hand: "Our lives are all tied to the handsome, please be sure to fulfill the handsome."

If it succeeds, we are willing to offer another 30,000 taels of silver, I don't know what the respect is? ”

"I said I'll help you get there."

Yang Chengying refused without hesitation, "Naturally, I won't ask you for more, so you can rest assured." ”

You can't give the other party a feeling of insatiability, otherwise how will the business be done in the future.

Yang Chengying clearly remembered that because of problems in the distribution of benefits, several internal wars broke out in Chaoxian.

At that time, they will definitely think of him, who is not so greedy, but also takes money and does things seriously.

It's called casting a long line to catch a big fish.

Li Gui didn't know what happened later, so he naturally thought that the other party was really not greedy, and said with a slight smile: "That's the case, there is Lao Zun Shuai." ”

"You're welcome. You should also prepare a messenger to follow me to Jinzhou Town, and then see when the time comes to enter the capital to report. ”

Yang Chengying is still very considerate, and even thought of this.

Li Gui was overjoyed: "This is natural, the candidate has been decided." The king sent Han Pingjun Li Qingquan as the envoy, Yin Xuan, the governor of the central government, as the deputy envoy, and Li Minchen as the secretary of Zongshu Temple, carrying the text and going to Jinzhou Town with the handsome, what is the meaning of the handsome? ”

"Just be smart, the rest doesn't matter."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "There is just one thing, everything must be arranged by me, and you must not rush into Beijing, so as not to make mistakes." ”

"No problem, everything depends on the plan."

Li Gui continued to pat himself on the back.

Yang Chengying had no choice but to continue to accept.

The two talked for a whole morning before the meeting was over.

On the third day of the first month of April, that is, the day when another group of Guanghaijun's cronies were beheaded to show the public, Yang Chengying led the Jinzhou Army under his command, officially set up camp and left Chaoxian.

The Chao Xian delegation also set off and traveled with the fleet.

Before leaving, Yang Chengying left some books for those Chaoxian children, hoping that they would occasionally flip through them and learn the knowledge inside.

Teacher Yang...... Good bye...... Teacher Yang...... Good bye! ”

A group of Chao Xian children spoke Chinese, waved their hands, and saw Yang Chengying off on the shore.

"There will be a date later!"

Yang Chengying waved goodbye.

The kid named Ah Zhang didn't come, probably because he was too sad to come. A man hid behind a big rock, holding a book, and wept bitterly.

When the fleet disappeared into the sea, Ah Zhang mustered up the courage to stand on the big rock and desperately looked into the distance.

It's just that I can't see the teacher anymore.
