In the imperial study, Zhao Duanzheng corrected today's recital.

Creak~

Suddenly, the door of the imperial study was gently opened, and Cao Shuang walked in cautiously and stood aside silently.

Zhao didn't raise his head until he had almost dealt with the fold in his hand, and then he raised his head and looked at Cao Shuang with a sigh of relief.

"How's the battle going in the southeast?"

I only heard Zhao Duan ask.

Cao Shuang immediately replied respectfully:

"Emperor, the Fourth Army has basically solved the problem of the Fangla Party and the rest of the rebels in southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu, and the rest of the rebels and displaced people, who should be killed, who should be cared for, the three counties have basically returned to calm, and the local governments are rapidly restoring the local people's livelihood."

"Where's Hayford?"

Zhao Duan nodded and asked again.

Speaking of Haifu County, Cao Shuang hesitated for a moment and hesitated for a while before saying: "After the four armies such as the Japanese pursued the rest of Fang La's troops to the territory of Haifu County, they did not move at the border.

Li Hengchang, the county guard of Haifu County, made seven excerpts today, hoping that the imperial court could order the four armies to enter the country as soon as possible to clear the thieves, and the rest of Fang La's troops have now regained a foothold in Haifu County and recruited troops.

Now that the two county towns of Haifu County have been conquered, the number of people is said to have expanded to 100,000, and the number of soldiers is still increasing. ”

After speaking, Cao Shuang cautiously glanced up at his own emperor, but who knew that the emperor just nodded with a flat face and said:

"After this period of time, the four armies have pursued and killed Fang La and the others across three counties in a row, which can be regarded as hard work, and it is time for them to take a good rest.

As for the excerpt of Li Hengchang, the county guard of Haifu County, you told him that the Fourth Army of the Japanese Dynasty is already a little tired of traveling to the three counties, and it will take a period of rest before they can continue to pursue and kill the rebels, so let them wait a little longer. ”

Cao Shuang cautiously asked: "Then the emperor, if they ask when they will wait, what should the slave and maid say?" ”

Zhao Duan waved his hand impatiently and said, "Say what!" Just let them continue to wait, and when they are rested, they will naturally move. ”

Cao Shuang understood now, so he didn't continue to say anything, and respectfully retreated to the side.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Duan suddenly asked, "Why haven't you heard any news about the sixth child recently?" Sixth, what is he doing now? ”

Cao Shuang thought about it, and then replied with a strange face: "His Royal Highness King Yun, he seems to have found the King of Zhenxi recently to learn martial arts, and then he was taken to Beishi by the King of Zhenxi every day. ”

"Second Emperor Uncle?"

Zhao Duan was stunned, and he didn't understand how his second uncle, who was out of tune, got mixed up with the sixth uncle?

Cao Shuang nodded and said, "According to the report below, after His Royal Highness King Yun saw the little lady of the Ye family that day, he went directly to the prince of Zhenxi that day?"

Early the next morning, he was taken to Beishi by the king of Zhenxi, and came back every day with a blue nose and swollen face, and I don't know what they were doing inside.

The slaves and maids don't dare to get too close, and you also know the temper of the prince of Zhenxi. ”

Zhao Duan nodded when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more, and suddenly smiled for a long time, as if he had figured out something, and suddenly said: "This kid, could it be that he saw the skills of the Ye family girl, and he was a little panicked, right?"

How did you find the second emperor's uncle?

You must know that Uncle Erhuang, his martial arts are not easy to learn. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Duan couldn't help but recall that when he was young, when he was still a prince and a weak lord.

was sent by his father, the first emperor, to the second emperor's uncle to learn martial arts for a few months, and Zhao Duan can't forget everything he went through.

What's even more infuriating is that he later learned that he was fighting to the death in that dueling arena, and the second emperor uncle actually gambled with himself outside, making a lot of money, and secretly let the opposite subordinate be ruthless, which is really ...... Hiss......

Thinking of this, Zhao Duan couldn't help but have a toothache!

After so many years, the two emperors' uncles still don't seem to have changed, and the sixth uncle should be regarded as throwing himself into the net when he is sent to the door like this.

But since he took the initiative, Zhao Duan didn't say anything more, the second emperor uncle is unreliable and unreliable, but after his special training, he is a little hard, but there will never be a danger to his life, and at least he can have the power to protect himself later.

The sixth child is on the border, and now that the Tatars are unstable, I am afraid that there will be more dangerous days in the future, so it is a good thing for him to learn a little means of self-protection.

Immediately, Zhao Duan seemed to remember something, and continued to ask: "By the way, how are the household departments and the Ministry of Rites preparing for the sixth wedding?"

What is the matter with letting him stay in the capital with a vassal king who has already settled in the domain, and quickly let him go back to his own acre and three points of land after he gets married. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Shuang said helplessly: "Back to Your Majesty, the household department and the Ministry of Rites have been delaying the fact that the court has no silver.

Later, after the three southeastern counties made up the tax silver, the imperial court now has silver, and the household department and the ritual department should have started to prepare, but the two sides had a dispute over the silver needed for the wedding of His Royal Highness King Yun. ”

"Dispute?"

Zhao Duan was stunned when he heard this, and then asked, "Isn't there a common practice for this prince's wedding?" What is there to argue about? ”

Cao Shuang said with a wry smile: "Originally, the household department was also prepared to allocate 200,000 taels to the Ministry of Rites in accordance with the usual practice of the prince's wedding, but after giving the previous 100,000 taels, the household servant who supervised the use of this silver found that the household department did not completely use the silver for the wedding of His Royal Highness King Yun, but diverted it for his use.

Later, the Ministry of Rites continued to ask for more silver from the Ministry of Household on the grounds that the money was not enough, and the Ministry of Household immediately quit, unwilling to give it alive or dead, and even the remaining 100,000 taels were stuck.

As the wedding day got closer and closer, the Ministry of Rites was also anxious, so they quarreled with the household department.

Today, after the next dynasty, the head of the household department also scolded the department of rites for a while, and the two parted unhappily. ”

Zhao Duan's brows furrowed, and instead of being angry, he asked, "Where did the Ministry of Rites use that silver?" ”

Cao Shuang said respectfully: "The slave maid also asked the Imperial City Division to check afterwards, and found that all the money from the Ministry of Rites went to the Four Princes' Mansion. ”

Zhao Duan was immediately stunned when he heard this:

"Fourth? How did it go to him? ”

Cao Shuang first glanced at Zhao Duan cautiously, and then whispered:

"According to the Ministry of Rites, the princes of the four princes have been in use for a long time and urgently need to be replaced.

The Ministry of Rites did not accept this statement at all, accusing the Ministry of Rites of misappropriation of special silver, which was required for the ceremony of the four princes, and it was necessary to list the details of the matter and finally check it by the Ministry of Households, but the Ministry of Rites embezzled the silver of the wedding of the six princes, which was a non-compliant system.

However, the Ministry of Rites said that the four princes were in a hurry, and besides, the four princes were brothers, and the six princes, as the royal brothers, should be polite to their brothers first.

The two sides did not give in to each other, which brought the matter to a stalemate. ”

After Cao Shuang finished speaking, he honestly stood in place and didn't dare to say anything more, but Zhao Duan was silent after listening, but his face became more and more difficult to look at.

The atmosphere of the entire imperial study room has also become depressing!

"I'm not dead yet! Did he Yi Changlin vote for the new master too early! ”
