Chapter 127: Chinese New Year

This scene fell in the eyes of Emperor Jing Xing, and he was immediately exchanged for a burst of angry shouts: "Whether it is done by people from other countries or by domestic bandits, I only need one answer!" ”

"At that time, there will be revenge, there will be revenge, there will be revenge, and there will be its own military department to raise."

"What you Dongfang Ming has to do is to find out the truth for me within ten days!"

"Retreat!" After finishing speaking, Emperor Jing Xing got up directly, but he didn't even look at Dongfang Ming, turned around and left.

This time, he was really angry.

If he finds out who did it, he will surely return a tooth for a tooth, and blood for blood!

……

However, before Dongfang Ming could find out the murderer, something even more unpredictable happened!

Yizhou, rebellion!

After knowing that Yizhou's disaster relief grain had been robbed, Li Huai'an, the magistrate of Yiling County, Yizhou, finally didn't want to be patient anymore, and directly incited the people to rebel.

In just a few days, eight major counties were connected.

Now, half of Yizhou has fallen.

The remaining half is also struggling to support.

Although this news was very important, it was blocked by Li Huai'an, and when it was sent to the imperial court, it was nearly ten days later.

After Emperor Jing Xing learned about it, the anger that he had finally suppressed was rubbed off, and he rushed up again in an instant.

Looking at Dongfang Ming's eyes, people shuddered.

Seeing this, Dongfang knew that he was guilty. Although the main sin is not him, he was the person in charge of the whole thing after all, so if something happened, the emperor had no problem finding him.

So, in order to save his life, Dongfang Ming could only make up for the losses of the imperial court, and took out 700,000 taels of silver!

Even if the Dongfang family is a century-old family in Qiandu City, it is really enough to take out so much silver money at once.

But fortunately, Emperor Jingxing was a relatively generous emperor.

put the silver into the treasury and chose to forgive Dongfang Ming.

Immediately, it was time to choose someone to quell the rebellion.

Pick and choose, the candidates given by the Ministry of War are Xinyang Hou and Zhang Huaiyang!

The reason is that Zhang Huaiyang is a native of Yizhou, and he understands the customs, terrain, and culture of Yizhou, so it is only appropriate to send him to quell the rebellion.

When Emperor Jing Xing heard this, he also thought it was very good, so he used the 700,000 taels of silver donated by Dongfang Ming as military salaries and rations, and then asked Zhang Huaiyang to lead the troops to the battle.

Zhang Huaiyang originally looked down on Li Huai'an of Yiling Zhixian County, after all, he was just a literati, and if he dared to rebel, it was just grandstanding.

In his opinion, quelling this rebellion would take more than ten days.

But who would have thought that he was entangled!

was completely entangled in Yizhou, and even in the confrontation with Li Huai'an, he was repeatedly at a disadvantage.

It is true that Li Huai'an is a literati, but who would have thought that he was still a literati who knew the art of war.

Moreover, this rebellion was not improvised, but was prepared in many ways.

By the time Zhang Huaiyang arrived, nearly three-quarters of Yizhou had completely fallen into the hands of Li Huai'an.

After Zhang Huaiyang saw it, he was directly dumbfounded. How do you tell me to fight? Don't talk about me, even if the King of Zhongshan comes, he won't be able to quell the rebellion in ten days!

Therefore, this war to quell chaos has changed from a blitzkrieg to a protracted war.

And this is also the last thing Emperor Jing Xing wants to see.

Because the longer you fight, the more money and food you consume.

The money and grain that the imperial court has accumulated now are all used to conquer the enemy country.

It's either the Western Jin Dynasty or the Southern Chen, in short, no matter what, you can't get rid of it at home.

But the matter has come to this point, and it can be called helpless.

After all, changing generals in battle is a taboo for soldiers!

What's more, others may not necessarily play well with Zhang Huaiyang.

……

And after such a series of tosses, the first year after Li Changkong came to Daqian, it has finally arrived!

In the footsteps of the New Year, every household unloaded the tiredness of the past and replaced it with a happy smile.

The elderly are blessed with a long life, and the children are blessed with good intelligence.

And the Marquis of Wuling's Mansion was prepared early.

The Chinese New Year's Eve meal was unusually rich, and even Li Changkong, a good young man who lived in the 21st century in his previous life and was accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

It's just that the taste is not very good, after all, condiments such as chili peppers were brought from the Americas in Chinese history.

Daqian is basically absent now, so the taste of the dishes is always worse.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, a bunch of people from the Marquis of Wuling Mansion came out of the courtyard one after another, only to see a wooden box placed in the open space.

After opening it, it was... Li Changkong's own system, the first fireworks!

The effect, because it is not bad money, any raw material can be doubled, so it is still quite shocking.

The big guys are naturally very interested in such strange things as fireworks.

Except for one person: Steward Yang!

Since Zhen Jian entered the palace, many heavy responsibilities have fallen on him.

Like what... Light fireworks.

This thing, the young master said it was safe, but... There's only one life.

He felt like crying a little.

"Young Master, are you sure this really won't explode right away?" He asked backwards with a trill.

When Li Changkong heard this, he took two steps back again, hiding behind a tall and thick pillar, and then nodded and said loudly: "I'm sure, let's do it!" ”

Seeing this, the corners of Steward Yang's mouth couldn't help twitching.

Well, it's even more panicked.

But the old man was watching, so he had no choice but to go forward.

Raise the incense in your hand and light the fuse.

Zizizizi!

As the flame ignited, the lead quickly shortened.

When Steward Yang saw it, he immediately ran back, and he simply used his strength to eat milk, even if he fell into the mud, he ignored it.

After running out for more than ten meters, Steward Yang heard a loud bang behind him.

A huge fire shot into the sky!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

There were several loud bangs one after another, and the firelight exploded, forming a brilliant and brilliant fireworks.

Floating down from the sky, it's beautiful.

This scene, everyone in the Marquis of Wuling's Mansion couldn't help but be stunned.

Many maids and servants all looked at their young master in a daze.

I secretly thought in my heart, is this really a movement made by the young master? The young master can't really be a heavenly immortal, right?

Steward Yang was a little complacent after being afraid at first.

Although this thing was made by the young master, he ordered it himself.

As for Li Zhufeng, he looked at the bright fireworks in the night sky, and then turned his head to look at Li Changkong under the fireworks, his nose was slightly sour, and he remembered his wife who had been deceased for many years.

"Xin'er, our children have grown up." He muttered to himself in an indiscernible voice.

At the same time, inside the palace.

In the courtyard of Qingren Palace, Princess Huaiqing looked at the rising fireworks, thought about it, and remembered that it seemed to be the direction of the Marquis of Wuling's mansion, so there was a gloom in the depths of her eyes.

The crown prince Liu Yu was returning to the East Palace from Renshou Palace, and when he saw the fireworks in the sky, he was immediately startled, and angrily reprimanded: "Who is the demon, dare to spread wild on the head of this palace!" ”

After realizing that there was no danger, he calmed down and said with emotion: "Is this what Lao Li said about fireworks?" ”

"It's... Beautiful! ”

"Technical work, can't be rewarded!"
