"Lord Yushi, please be cautious and be careful of provoking your mouth!"

The eunuch and Xiang Rongrang passed by, and as soon as he entered the reception hall, he heard the wild words of the imperial history, which made him have to remind!

Now in Jiankang, Xiang Rongrang commands tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Gyeonggi camp and is the commander of the Gyeonggi camp.

The Grand Governor of the Gyeonggi Battalion commanded the cavalry battalion, the infantry battalion, the forward battalion, the guard battalion, the firearms battalion, and so on.

He followed Li Jingfu all the way to Jiankang, and he was Li Jingfu's confidant general.

This time, the case was handed over to him to raid his home, which shows that Li Jingfu attaches great importance to him.

When Lord Yushi saw Xiang Rongrang walking in from outside, he was so frightened that he took two steps back, slumped in his chair, and his face turned pale.

Adhering to the reason of not losing the momentum of the literati, he worked hard to maintain the high level of the literati, and sneered: "The governor of the capital is so fast, you can't wait to see me unlucky?" ”

Xiang Rongrang is a military general, and he has always looked down on the hypocritical life of literati, and after listening to his words, he sneered: "A cowardly civil official like you can't arouse my interest, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, so I have to go on this trip." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the door and asked with a smile, "Why don't you see your family?" ”

Hearing this, Lord Yushi's face instantly turned even paler.

Xiang Rongrang took in his expression and said to his subordinates: "Why don't you hurry up and invite all the family members of the adults over, if you neglect the family members of the adults, the emperor will ask, I won't help you carry the guilt!" ”

"Yes!"

The soldiers who followed him listened to his order, answered the call, and turned and walked out of the reception hall.

Yushi's face changed: "Governor, can't the emperor really open the net?" ”

Xiang Rongrang looked at him with pity, "Since the adults are willing to be this bird, they have to bear this consequence!" When you were reprimanded by the emperor in the main hall, did anyone in your alliance ask the emperor to intercede for you? ”

"I don't understand what kind of faith it is, so that adults can disregard the lives of the whole family and contradict the emperor, what did you get in the end? Fame or fortune? ”

It seems that nothing has been gained, and the whole family has been killed.

As for whether this former imperial historian is guilty, Xiang Rongrang is not worried, because the officials of this period are 100% not clean, and the honest and honest officials of the Yu Dynasty are simply rare and rare.

Xiang Rongrang's words made this Imperial Master suddenly dumbfounded, and the guilt in his heart almost overwhelmed him when he looked at the family members who were escorted over one after another.

He must know that the emperor does not play cards according to common sense, and he will not be able to come out of this way if he is killed.

The power of the emperor's madness is too great, and it may be that only he, the so-called 'loyal minister', is stupid to take his family on adventure.

The officials in the capital were all paying attention to the Imperial History Mansion, and it took Xiang Rongrang two days to clear out the property of the Imperial History Mansion.

In addition to the dowry of the daughters-in-law of each house and the normal income of the family, the other assets of unknown origin reached 600,000 taels.

What is this concept?

At this time in the Yu Dynasty, the price of a royal history was about fifteen taels a month.

600,000 taels of silver is money that an official position like the Imperial Doctor cannot earn in a lifetime.

After receiving the seized money, Li Jingfu was stunned, and he didn't have so much of an emperor's private treasury.

An emperor's private treasury is not as good as a courtier, and it is a bit embarrassing to say it.

When the emperor is angry, he does not ambush millions of corpses, but it is not something that ordinary people can bear.

The entire family of the Imperial History Mansion was exiled to the frontier, except for an adult man who wanted to join the army to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, all the others were exiled.

The punishment is severe, and life is worse than death.

The border land is not something that they can adapt to as young ladies and ladies who stay in the splendid pile of the capital.

——

The only way out of town.

Sitting on the second floor of the teahouse, the official Shangshu looked at the exile team and asked, "We really don't want to persuade the emperor anymore?" ”

The left servant shot at the prisoner who was shackled on his hands and feet, and the former master of the imperial history has now been reduced to a prisoner.

"Recently, the emperor has been a little nitpicky in dealing with the government, a little thing can make him angry, let's be smart and don't touch his moldy head, as for his affairs, we can only say sorry, we have tried our best."

The official Shangshu looked at the team that was gradually moving away, and sighed: "I really miss the time when the first emperor was in the court!" ”

The left servant pursed his lips and looked out the window without a sound, who did not miss the days when the first emperor came to the court, at that time they almost said anything, as long as it was justified, the emperor would not refute.

At that time, the emperor was the mascot they put in a cage, the tool man!

Gone are those days.

Just when the courtiers thought that the matter was over due to the exile of the Yushi family, the emperor made another decree.

The families of officials at all levels in Jiankang were ordered to actively cooperate with the conscription work, and each family was given a quota, but all those who served as officials in the court had a quota for their family members.

As soon as this decree was announced, the entire Jiankang court was shaken.

Where is this conscription order, this is simply asking for their lives, whose male is not their lifeline.

Now that the emperor wants their lives to go to war, isn't that tantamount to asking for their lives?

"Your Majesty, there are dozens or hundreds of soldiers on the battlefield, why don't you issue a conscription order to the people and let them draw one of the three?" There are official suggestions.

Li Jingfu sat on the Jinluan Palace, stunned by the shameless words of the courtiers below.

"Do you still want to make a face? Dayu has always used five to draw one, and now you have asked me to draw one for the sake of your family's gentlemen! ”

"What are your intentions? This is to make me infamy! ”

The ministers immediately narrowed their sense of existence and tried not to attract the attention of the emperor.

In case they are named by the emperor, they will offend people no matter what, and they will not mention this kind of suggestion that is not human inside and out.

"Tianguan, what do you think?"

Li Jingfu saw that the ministers were silent, so he directly called names.

The official Shangshu stood up with a wooden face, "Minister, the minister thinks that if the court lacks troops, it will be possible to implement three Ding to draw one, and it is not impossible." However, for the sake of the stability of the society, the five dings that have been used cannot be changed casually, and the specific implementation needs to be carefully considered by the emperor. ”

Anu, who was standing on the side, listened to his words, and glanced at this Tianguan in surprise, what a talent, this ambiguous word, the ability to meet the source left and right is also gone!

Li Jingfu glanced at him, looked at the ministers below, and then said: "I have decided to recruit 100,000 troops again, and when the training is complete, I will hurry to support the counterinsurgency. ”

At this time, the head of the household couldn't sit still, and stepped forward to advise: "Your Majesty, in the past few years, the internal friction has been serious, the disaster has caused the number of people in various places to drop sharply, and the living conditions of the people everywhere are worrying about the conscription again, so we should recuperate and resume production!" ”

Li Jingfu frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "The front-line counterinsurgency has been persistent, why is there not much progress?" The reason for this is that the number of troops is too small, and if there are more troops, the progress of counterinsurgency will be greatly shortened. Don't you want the court to put down the civil strife as soon as possible? ”

Hubu Shangshu felt wronged, and said head-on: "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers don't support your conscription, but they have increased the number of troops, and the Hubu is struggling, I'm afraid that the surplus food can't afford so many recruits, and the final result is that we have increased the strength of the rebels." ”

In the past, it was not uncommon for the imperial court soldiers and horses to rebel into rebels!

When Li Jingfu heard this, he reprimanded with a dark face: "Don't use the previous humiliation to oppose me, now is the Jianyuan era, everything is possible!" ”

Tobe Shangshu: "."

You are not the emperor of the ages, what can't be compared?

"The queen wrote a letter and kept saying that I was inactive in Jiankang, and now I have finally made up my mind to change my past, don't stop me!"

Saying that, Li Jingfu swept over the ministers below and threatened: "If you obstruct me, and the queen dislikes me for doing nothing, I will sell you when I arrive, saying that you don't agree, and I can't do anything!" ”

The corners of the ministers' mouths twitched, scoundrel!

"Also, the queen will scold me so bloody, this time I want to change the past, and prepare to re-measure the fields in Yangzhou Mansion before the summer harvest, check the hidden households, and re-register all of them, so as to increase the taxes of the household department.

I hope you will cooperate then, if I find out who is making trouble behind my back, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

When the ministers heard this, their faces turned green!

These in-laws are really, it's not a family that doesn't enter the door.

The Empress annexed their property in the Gyeonggi region, while the Emperor annexed their property in Jiankang, is this forcing everyone to have no way out?

What surprised the ministers even more was that the current emperor spoke in a deep manner, and he achieved his goal with a single mess.

Copying the Imperial History Mansion was just the beginning, and then the conscription was introduced, so he stayed up late.

Later, it involved military salaries, which led to the reform of the fields and the cleaning of hidden households, and each of these piles seemed to have the shadow of the queen.

Or is the emperor just a mouthpiece? ——

Two months later, in a deep mountain in Youzhou.

"General, what you said at the beginning was right, the people here are fierce, and even the soldiers and horses in Youzhou are also elite soldiers, it's really hard to deal with!"

Zhenghe cut a piece of roasted mutton and threw it into his mouth, and snorted coldly: "Leave aside the other soldiers and horses in Youzhou for the time being, but the cavalry of Youzhou is the only existence in the world, and you 20,000 people want to get a bargain in the hands of Youzhou soldiers and horses, it is wishful thinking!" ”

The adjutant general asked: "Since the soldiers and horses in Youzhou are so difficult to deal with, why did the general have to come to Youzhou in the first place, since Yan and Qing can't go back, but we can go to sea to have a fight, whether we succeed or fail, we are worthy of being a person in this life." ”

Chi Zhongjun roasted the mutton and expressed his opinion, "The queen of the Dayu Dynasty used us to disrupt the officialdom of Jizhou, so that she had an excuse to regain control of Jizhou."

Although Xiao Qi, the assassin of Jizhou, made a wedding dress for others, in the end, there was a reward, and the court named him a loyal and brave marquis, which was regarded as a complete achievement for the Yu Dynasty to quell the rebellion.

Only we were driven to hide everywhere by the imperial soldiers, lingering for a long time, hiding in the mountains all day long, and now we can't even go back to Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and if this continues, our team is only afraid that the attrition will be faster! ”

Zhenghe turned around and finally looked at Chi Zhongjun with straight eyes, "According to your meaning, what do we have to do to fight back?" ”

Chi Zhongjun broke his illusion: "Youzhou has been the state capital rich in elite soldiers since ancient times, if we go to them, we will send people's heads, if we want to take revenge, we must make more plans, and it may not be successful!" ”

When the adjutant general heard this, his heart suddenly became angry, and he sneered: "What you said is tantamount to nonsense, rather than talking about these big truths, it is better to have some practical ideas." ”

Chi Zhongjun smiled and leaned against the mountain wall unhurriedly, "The imperial court and the government have benefited, as long as we are embarrassed by their pursuit and killing, our safety is not guaranteed." If we take refuge in the imperial court, won't we have to hide in Tibet like we do now? ”

Several generals never thought that Chi Zhongjun would say this and take refuge in the imperial court?

Zhenghe frowned slightly, thinking about the success rate of this matter, and after a while, he turned around and asked, "Why does Chi Guerrilla have such an idea?" Or have you had this idea since you joined our team? ”

Now that Chi Zhongjun has opened his mouth, the next thing is much easier.

"The momentum of the imperial court is like the rising sun, developing in a good direction, if we take refuge in the imperial court now, I believe everyone will have a good future!"

"If we are still struggling meaninglessly, we will be worried about our lives every day in the future, for fear that the soldiers and horses of Youzhou will come out and annihilate us!"

In fact, this proposal made everyone very excited, but

"Will the court recruit our defeated army? Don't surrender but don't treat us kindly, and then our position will be awkward. ”

Chi Zhongjun shook his head: "It shouldn't be, we are returning to the direct team of the queen or the crown prince, no matter what, they will train us well, so that we can learn to go into battle and kill the enemy." As for the nagging of other people, it is good to ignore it. ”

Zhenghe looked at him suspiciously: "Listening to your tone, you seem to have a way, or can you contact someone from the imperial court?" ”

Chi Zhongjun scratched his nose and defended himself: "Don't look at me with that suspicion, I have never betrayed you, but now that we are in a desperate situation, I will give you a proposal." If you don't accept the surrender, you can continue south to Yanzhou and join the general. ”

"Since you can contact the generals of the imperial court, then you can contact first, and we will discuss how to obtain more benefits." Zhenghe brushed his messy hair, and he didn't have time to take care of it.

Staying in the mountains every day, the soldiers are concerned about survival, no one cares about the image, I don't know if such a group of people walking out of the mountains will attract everyone's attention?

Chi Zhongjun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if these troops persuaded him to surrender, then he would pay her back a little favor.

Jizhou was withdrawn from the right to appoint and dismiss officials, and Xia Jing completely controlled the rule of Jizhou.

When she received the letter from Youzhou, she was still a little confused, Youzhou didn't know anyone herself, except for Feng Zhang, but Feng Zhang didn't know her identity, so she shouldn't take the initiative to write to her.

As soon as she opened the letter, it was unexpected.

"A letter from a desperate rebel in Youzhou." Saying that, Xia Jing handed the letter to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei took the letter and gave it to Long Yutian, who was sitting aside to deal with affairs.

After he finished reading the letter, Xia Jing asked, "What does the prison guard say about this matter?" ”

Long Yutian folded the letter and smiled: "Isn't this exactly what Niangniang was looking forward to, didn't you let Chi Zhongjun leave just for this day?" ”

"Those who know me, the prison army also!" Xia Jing laughed.
