Emperor Longqian is now loyal to him, and he has no frame at all, but these are all based on his victory.

Emperor Long Qian was not a good man and a woman, before that, Geng Ruqi, Yan Jizu, and Zheng Chongjian were all big men who knew soldiers and were good at fighting, but they were still killed by Emperor Long Qian, and the reasons for the killing were strange.

In the second year of Emperor Longqian, the Tatars broke into the pass from Xifengkou and harassed Gyeonggi.

Geng Ruqi, who was the governor of Shanxi at the time, immediately led 5,000 soldiers to King Qin, and was the first to arrive in Beijing among the soldiers and horses of King Qin.

In order to enter King Qin, Geng Ruqi did not bring enough grain and grass, and the light army advanced.

The rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty was to camp on the first day and pay food the next day.

As a result, Geng Ruqi guarded Tongzhou on the first day of his arrival, and on the second day, he received an order from the Ministry of War to be transferred to Changping.

After three days of circling the capital for three days, the 5,000-strong army was stunned and did not get a bite of hot rice.

Running 150 kilometers in three days is equivalent to running a marathon every day, and no money or food is given, even now, no one can stand it?

Now the soldiers of the army are gone, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and we can't fight hungry!

Geng Ruqi was unable to restrain his generals, so more than 5,000 people began to loot grain and grass everywhere.

Enraged, Emperor Longqian ordered Geng Ruqi's arrest and beheaded him in Xishi two years later.

There are many similar things, all of which are the actions of Emperor Longqian.

However, this cannot be blamed entirely on Emperor Longqian, there are many friends in the DPRK and China, and the ministers have joined forces to fool him, he is young and vigorous, likes to be willful, and has no patience.

As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

If the governance of a large country is small, the Great Zhou Dynasty is already crumbling and can't withstand such a toss.

As soon as she heard that it would be implicated, Mrs. Wang couldn't sit still, and said: "I'll go to the second brother now, how can he, who is an uncle, push his nephew into the fire pit!" ”

Jia Baoyu said: "Mother, it's useless, I've already looked for my uncle, and he supports me." ”

Nonsense, it's Jia Baoyu recommended by Wang Ziteng, how could he object, isn't that a slap in his own face?

Mrs. Shi spoke: "I don't agree with this, I want Baoyu to go to war, and kill me, the old woman, first!" ”

There was a stalemate in Rongqing Hall for a while.

Jia Baoyu knows about Jiafu's future seizure, even if he doesn't toss, he will go into decline, it is better to take advantage of the family's background to fight once, if he succeeds, everyone will be happy, even if he is not successful, he can make a comeback.

If it really doesn't work, I will run away with my whole family, go to Jiangxi, go to Jiangnan, and if it doesn't work, I will go to the 100,000 mountains of Yunnan-Guichuan.

"The Divine Decree has arrived!"

A sharp voice suddenly sounded outside, neither male nor female, everyone in the house hurriedly greeted them, but saw Wang Chengen walking over with four little eunuchs.

Mrs. Shi was busy preparing incense cases.

Wang Chengen saw that everyone was ready, and shouted: "Jia Baoyu takes the order!" ”

Headed by Shi Lao Taijun, everyone knelt down: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Wang Chengen took a yellow silk dark dragon envelope from the brocade box, and sang loudly: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Liukou is raging in Gyeonggi, the people are miserable, and the Jia family has a son Baoyu, which is deeply heartfelt!" Jia Baoyu was promoted to Tianjin Zuowei Thousand Households, and was given gold wire belts, 10,000 taels of silver, and ten bronze medals for meritorious service, which was used for rewarding meritorious service before the battle. ”

Wang Chengen then said some words, and when he finished reciting the holy decree, Wang Chengen smiled: "Lord Jia, congratulations!" ”

Jia Baoyu took the holy decree, let the subordinates complete the handover, and welcomed Wang Chengen into the Rongqing Hall.

Wang Chengen asked Shi Lao Taijun about his health on behalf of the emperor, and then said: "Baoyu has won a great victory in suppressing thieves, and the emperor has ordered the political secretary to send a report and spread it."

The Jia family has a unicorn! ”

Shi Lao Taijun wanted to cry but couldn't, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach: "Princess, Baoyu is still young, can you ask the emperor to change someone to train and suppress bandits?" ”

Wang Chengen's face fell suddenly, and he said: "What did the old lady say, this is a matter set by the emperor, Jinkou Yuyan, do you still want the emperor to change his words?" ”

"This ......" Mrs. Shi couldn't speak.

Jia Baoyu hurriedly said: "Grandma is worried about my safety, princess, please tell the emperor, I should do the training, but the training takes time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to exterminate the rogue for a while, and please ask the emperor to give the ministers some time." ”

Wang Chengen showed a smile at this time: "That's right, at this time when the family and country are in danger, we need to have noble sons like Lord Jia to stand up and serve the country, and let that son Wenchen and military generals see that the nobles are the mainstay of my Great Zhou Dynasty."

However, the matter of suppressing the bandits has to be faster, and it is now the end of February, and the emperor asked you to exterminate the thieves before the summer harvest, so as not to delay the harvest of the people of Gyeonggi. ”

After speaking, Wang Chengen got up and left, not even asking for the silver given by the Jia family.

Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Our family is waiting for the news of Lord Jia's triumph, and at that time, it will not be too late to receive it." ”

Jia Baoyu doesn't know if it's good or bad, no matter how greedy Wang Chengen is, he won't be greedy for that part.

sent Wang Chengen away, and there was a dead silence in Rongqing Hall.

Shi Lao Taijun sat there and wiped his tears and said: "Among these children and grandchildren, only Baoyu is the most like his grandfather, I didn't expect that this looks like it, even if it is, now he has to inherit his grandfather's career."

Wouldn't it be fun to fight, and it would cost people lives at every turn, and I would have to eat and live with those stinky hills, and not starve my precious grandchildren? ”

Although Rongguofu started with military merits, they don't look down on being soldiers.

In these years, there is a saying that good iron does not hit nails, and good men are not soldiers.

Because those who serve in the army are all military households, hereditary, and future generations must be military households, if a family has several sons, one must be selected to be a soldier, and the others can do other livelihoods.

However, now, some military households can also spend money to offset conscription, which is also an unwritten rule.

And the Great Zhou Dynasty soldiers need to bring their own dry food, weapons, armor, only when it is time to fight, the court will allocate grain and grass, as for the silver, most of them are to be deducted by the officials, commonly known as eating soldiers' salaries and drinking soldiers' blood.

Without food, the soldiers could only plunder everywhere, which was also the reason for the bad reputation of the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Jia Zheng sighed and said: "Mother, the matter has come to this point, the sage has made a decision, which cannot be changed, I can only hope that Baoyu can train elite soldiers and strong generals, and put down the thieves as soon as possible, and when the time comes, maybe I can really revive the glory of my Jia family." ”

Mrs. Shi just wiped her tears: "If you want that glory to do, the family is safe and sound, the old woman is about to be eighty years old, and how many years do you have to live?" ”

Hearing this, Jia Baoyu, who had been silent, said with a smile: "Grandma, you are wrong, don't look at your age, but your health is very good, you eat well, and it is not a problem to live a hundred years old." ”

The old lady in "Dream of Red Mansions" has survived her 80th birthday!

If it weren't for the Rongguo Mansion raiding the house, there would be no problem for the old lady to live for another ten years.

Mrs. Shi burst into tears and laughed: "You monkey head, you can say strange things, you won't become an old goblin if you live for 100 years!" ”

"Grandma is an old goblin, I am a little goblin, when the time comes, I will form a goblin army, and I will be invincible!"

Jia Baoyu said with a smile.
