"Your Majesty, this year's harvest of Huangzhuang has been put into storage, and the income of Huangzhuang this year is nearly two percent more than last year!"

In the imperial garden, Zhao Jun, who had just finished eating and took his son out to eat, was walking while listening to Wang Huaien telling about the situation in Huangzhuang.

After listening, Zhao Jun asked: "This year's income is more than last year's, which is naturally a good thing."

But I don't want such a good thing to be achieved at the expense of the people, do you understand what I mean? ”

Wang Huaien hurriedly nodded:

"Your Majesty, rest assured!

When the grain was harvested this year, the slaves and maids had already ordered it to go down, and they would not receive an extra grain of grain according to the time set by His Majesty before.

The day before yesterday, the slave maid also went to the surrounding Huangzhuang to check in person, and the granaries of every household were full of grain, which absolutely did not harm the interests of the people. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Jun nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "This is about to enter winter, have you prepared all the things I asked you to prepare before?" ”

Wang Huaien immediately said: "Cotton clothes, charcoal fires and other slaves and maids needed for the winter have been prepared for Your Majesty."

It's enough for the people of Huangzhuang! ”

Zhao Jun nodded, and then ordered: "Wait for the snow, and divide it immediately." ”

"Slave understands!"

In recent years, as the economic situation of the imperial court has become better and better, Zhao Jun will always ask Wang Huaien to prepare a batch of winter materials or something during the winter every year, and give them to the people of Huangzhuang below when winter comes.

This behavior has almost become a common practice.

I don't know how many people are now recruiting farmers in the Huangzhuang, eager to replace them.

Not only the materials for the winter, but also the various benefits for the New Year's holidays.

Meat, fruits, sugar, salt, etc...... It can be said that the benefits are so good!

In Zhao Jun's view, these farmers in Huangzhuang are his own basic plates.

In addition to Feiyun Commercial Bank, his current income depends on these farms.

In Zhao Jun's view, whether it is Feiyun Commercial Bank or these farms, they are like state-owned enterprises to him, these are all his own people, of course, it must be right.

Just when Zhao Jun was walking the child and wondering if there was anything he had forgotten, suddenly a eunuch rushed over in a panic!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Oh no! Something is wrong! ”

This shouting suddenly attracted everyone's attention in the imperial garden, and following the gaze, the eunuch who trotted all the way with an anxious face was none other than Wei Xian, a famous eunuch in the palace today, and also Wang Huaien, the godson of the ancestor of the eunuch today.

Seeing Wei Xian's panicked appearance, before Zhao Jun could say anything, Wang Huaien's brows instantly furrowed.

Immediately came out and scolded: "What nonsense! Your Majesty is well! This is the palace, not the street market in the east market, what kind of system have you become! ”

Listening to Wang Huaien's words, Zhao Jun's originally slightly furrowed brows slowly stretched.

However, the expression on Wei Xian's face did not soothe, but said with a wry smile:

"The slave doesn't dare to hide it from Your Majesty, and now something has really happened!."

Seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, Zhao Jun's face also became serious, and he immediately asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Wei Xian glanced up at Wang Huaien, and when he saw his gaze, Wang Huaien immediately glared back.

Immediately, Wei Xian hurriedly said:

"Just now, there was news from the Western Regions Protectorate, a month ago, the Xiongnu united with the Northern Turkic Imperial Court and the Western Regions Gumo, Shache, Xijimi and other three countries, a total of 50,000 people joined forces to attack the Western Regions Protectorate.

The Western Regions Protectorate led 5,000 defenders to resist and quickly borrowed 50,000 troops from the Tatar Department.

However, the coalition forces were menacing, and before the Tatars could receive the news, most of the territory of the Western Regions Protectorate had been lost.

The 5,000 defenders resisted until only 1,000 remained, and the Duhu Ban Dynasty was even more defeated in the battle, and is now seriously injured and unconscious.

The remaining more than 1,000 defenders, under the leadership of the commander Lu Xingzhou, are relying on the city wall to defend Ankang City, but the gap in numbers is too huge, and I am afraid that it will not last long.

According to the news that came back, when the war broke out, Lord Chaoban, the capital of the Western Regions, had already used the Flying Eagle to send a message to ask for help.

However, the Xiongnu laid layers of siege around the Western Regions Protectorate, and even arranged for the condor archers to keep an eye on the direction of the Protectorate to prevent any flying eagles from coming out.

Later, an elite was sent to break through at the risk of death, and then the news was transmitted.

Now it has been nearly half a month since the news came back!

Your Majesty! The Western Regions Protectorate is in danger! ”

Wei Xian's voice fell, and the temperature around the matter dropped suddenly.

Zhao Jun's face also became extremely ugly at this time.

He was not unaware of the changes in the Xiongnu and the Northern Turks.

But he didn't expect that the other party would do it so quickly.

What's even more hateful is that there are still refuge people in the countries of the Western Regions!

Have they forgotten what happened to them when Guishan ruled the Western Regions?

Do you really think that the Xiongnu and the Turks are good things?

And since Zhao Jun used the secret guard to establish the letter eagle system in Yunzhou County, this is the first time that the news has been intercepted and received after a month.

This shows that the other party came prepared, and it was not until their way of transmitting the message that they could arrange for the Condor Shooters to ambush and make the message pass so long.

The 5,000 Yunzhong troops who stayed in the Western Regions Capital Protectorate at the beginning were only more than 1,000 killed, and now they are relying on the city wall in a difficult place.

He didn't know how many people would be left after all this time.

But he knew he was angry!

He wants to send troops to sweep away all these bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods now!

"Wang Companion!"

"The slave is here!"

"Immediately summon hundreds of officials into the palace!"

"No! Slave obeys! ”

Wang Huaien didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took Wei Xian and left, and went to pass the order.

Zhao Jun sent Zhao Jian back to Kunning Palace, and then hurriedly came to the Vertical Arch Palace.

At this time, the hundred officials who received the news had also arrived, and seeing Zhao Jun walking like the wind and hurriedly walking into the hall, the hundred officials hurriedly saluted.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty? ”

Zhao Jun waved his hand, and replied angrily with a gloomy face: "I'm uneasy! ”

When the hundred officials looked at each other, they heard Zhao Jun say coldly: "Just now, I received news that the Western Regions Protectorate I set up in the Western Regions was attacked by the Xiongnu and the Northern Turks and some traitors in the Western Regions!"

Of the 5,000 defenders, most of them were killed in battle, and only 1,000 people were left to defend the city!

What do they mean by that! ”

Zhao Jun looked at the ministers and asked angrily.

Hundreds of officials bowed their heads, and many people were even more secretly frightened, they didn't know until now that the Great Song Dynasty actually had territory in the Western Regions.

Although Zhao Jun has ascended the throne as emperor, Yunzhou County is still like a country within a country, and most people have limited understanding of Yunzhou County.

Not long ago, everyone learned that His Majesty had been expanding his territory when he was the prince.

But on the other side of the mountain, there is no less territory than the six counties of the Great Song Dynasty.

Originally, they thought that was the limit.

Unexpectedly, today I heard that His Majesty actually set up the Western Regions Protectorate in the Western Regions.

It really surprised them.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Zhao Jun said himself: "They are provoking me!"

Just the Huns! The Northern Turks and those traitors in the Western Regions actually dare to touch the land of my Great Song Dynasty and kill the people of my Great Song Dynasty, I must make them pay the price!

The book of the military department!

How many troops can I mobilize now? ”

Zhao Jun's question immediately shocked the secretary of the military department, not only him, but also the faces of other officials in the court.

Your Majesty asks this question, doesn't he want to ......?
