Chapter 17 The Death of the Ministers of the Dead Rejuvenation of the Nation and the Prosperity of the Ministers

Li Yubai took out the letter of state handed over to him by the great general Jing Chen from his bag, and read it aloud: "Minister, the great general Jing Chen led the emperor's order to attack the Liang State, and it has been nearly ten years now, costing countless national money and food, and 125,872 soldiers have been killed in battle. ”

Hearing the name 'Jing Chen' from Li Yubai's mouth, Jing Ming was not only in a trance in front of him, but he said that he had not seen each other for ten years, but he couldn't imagine that ten years had passed in such a flash.

At that time, when Jingchen was approaching the night of the expedition, he let Jing Ming ride on his neck and asked, "Boy, what do you like?"

The naΓ―ve boy patted his father's head and said majestically: "In the coming day, I will wear brocade clothes and ride a big horse to command an army of 100 people," the old man asked strangely: "Why are there 100 people, not 1,000 people, or even 10,000 people, isn't that more majestic?" The young man said something that the old father couldn't refute: "What do you want tens of thousands of people, if one or two of them are very powerful, won't I let them all snatch away my prestige?"

At this moment, Li Yubai is a brocade horse, and there are 500 brocade horses under his command, where is Dad?

The death of a soldier is a tragedy, and the death of 125,872 people is just a cold number, this is war, and the moment you go to the battlefield, you can't help yourself.

It is not unreasonable that Jing Chen has not fought for ten years.

Liang State from the emperor to the minister is not mediocre, the emperor is a rare wise lord in the history of the dynasty, once had the tendency to dominate, the humerus minister has Yang Zuozhi, there is the iron general known as Hou Junqi, the ability of these two people is like the middle of the Yan Yu Jingyang and Jing Chen, are the ability to govern the world.

The reason for the failure, in the words of the Emperor of Liang, who had hanged himself on Laojun Mountain, said: 'He didn't lose the country, he lost to those greedy and hesitant sects,' the Tie General who hanged with him summed it up much more straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, if you had worshiped me as the main general instead of Lu Yiling on Jidao Island at that time, would Jing Chen not be able to enter the capital, do you believe it or not?"

Polar Island is east of the Great Liang Kingdom, and it is said that the two monarchs and ministers were hanged facing the east, and before they died, their eyes were wide open, so that they could see with their own eyes that the island would sink to the bottom of the sea at a certain time.

The state of Liang died, and the treasury was looted by Jingchen, and all of them were moved to Fengtian City.

Li Yubai took the list of Liang Guozu's treasury after twenty centimeters from the deputy general, picked it up, and said, "The last general will hand over the list of Liang's treasury." ”

Song Shanhe, the head of the household department, is in charge of the national finances, and the main purpose of coming here is also to take over the finances of the Liang State, and the money spent on attacking the Liang State is like flowing water. Then General Li didn't let go.

It is not easy to ask for military rations and money from the hands of this Hubu Shangshu, Li Yubai once took Yu Jingyang and the emperor's edict to the treasury to receive money, but this guy said no, and finally this general who sharpened a belly and a fiery temper on the battlefield, rushed into the luxurious mansion of the Song family with more than 30 people, snatched Song Shangshu's wife, and plucked a few hairs from this iron rooster that did not hurt or itch.

Li Yubai leaned forward, tilted his head and chin on Song Shangshu's shoulder, and said, "Lord Shangshu, what did I say at that time, give me ten taels today and return it a hundred times a day, your old man said that I didn't break my promise." ”

Song Shanhe's kung fu is good, maybe the assets in his hand are too rich, and his memory is much worse, and he even forgot the oath that he promised to break his body into ten thousand pieces when he saw Li Yubai that day, but he was quite happy and agreed: "General Li is full of words, and the old man saw that this investment was worth it at that time." ”

"You always take it," Li Yubai let go with a smile.

Song Shanhe handed over the list to the servant under the door, and when he turned around, he saw Li Yubai holding a book with the seal of 'Tianying Building' in his hand, and he raised his eyebrows.

The Great Liang Kingdom enshrines the Polar Island as the suzerain of the protector of the country, and every year when it enters the Pole Island, a large number of martial arts cheats will be given, and these cheats are all hidden in the Heavenly Shadow Building, in addition to the accumulation of the Great Liang Country for so many years, the collection of books in the Heavenly Shadow Building can be regarded as very rich, if the value is concerned, it is definitely not less than the treasury treasure, and in the long run, it is definitely more than the treasury.

At this time, Li Yubai did not make it difficult and handed it over directly to Song Shanhe.

The youth phalanx, Song Hanchuan has been staring at it since Li Yubai picked up the secret book of the Heavenly Shadow Building, and it was only a dozen seconds before he handed it over to Song Shanhe, he felt that his life was like a year, and at this moment, seeing Song Shanhe put the secret book account book into his arms, the heat in his heart was rising, thinking that the martial arts that belonged to him were coming, and he would care if he was Jing Ming or who he was, and he would definitely step on his feet, and he would definitely ride under his crotch if he was Zhu Qingyu in the future, and it would be me Song Hanchuan who would finally fight with Zhao Xuanlang in the future.

At this time, Li Yubai took over the list of captured ministers of Liang from the deputy general, and said, "The last general will hand over the list of 100 officials of Liang State on behalf of the general." ”

Yi Yi of the Criminal Department stepped forward, took the list and read it carefully, when he read the three words on the left side of the sheep, his eyes were raised, and he looked up at the grizzled Minister of Liang who was following the hearse of the fallen soldiers, this old man with a bright head and bright eyes could be quickly found even if he was left in the coal pile, and Yi Yi quickly located him in the crowd.

For this person, Yi Yi had three surprises.

He's still alive?

He was actually found?

He didn't commit suicide?

Yang Zuozhi's character is the most strong, once in the court and the emperor fought for the red-faced, in the end the emperor let a step this old man is relieved, five years ago Jingchen army in the territory of Liang when the siege of the city and the opposition are in order to continue to worship the island Lu Yiling as a general or change to the iron general Hou Junqi as a general, when he retreated together, Hou Junqi in the court is still a figure from time to time, but this old minister is gone, everyone thought he was dead, and he still left his words:" The beam will die, and the old man will die when the country dies. ”

No one would doubt the determination of the sheep to be martyred in the same country.

Still alive now?

At this time, he was found, and he was taken to Fengtian, the capital of Yanguo, with the captives, many of these Liang courtiers had real talents and learning, and they would inevitably serve as officials in Zhongyan after a few days of symbolic confinement.

Does this sudden Mr. Yang want to continue to be an official?

Yi Yi didn't think much about it, put away the roster, and asked the officers of the Criminal Department to put the ministers of the dead country who had hundreds of people into the prison for temporary detention to polish off their arrogance.

The Qingqi of the sheep is different from the others.

On the way to Mukden with the army, this loyal minister who should have been killed by a headlong collision was indeed what he should eat, eat and drink, and when the conditions were poor, he would put forward conditions to Li Yubai, and he could still scold this murderous general for a moment when he was in a bad mood, which was even more comfortable than in his own home.

The people of Daliang, who are interested in recovering the country, are naturally indispensable to poke the backbone of this old minister.

When he was about to enter the Yongdao of the Fengtian City Gate, the old minister stopped abruptly, so that the Lord of the Heavenly Shadow Building behind him, Sikong Ce, hit his head on his back and fell to the ground, the old minister raised his head and his withered black and white hair was attached to his face, and his bright eyes looked at the word Fengtian on the city wall, and then looked at the dim sky behind the eaves of the city tower, it was about to rain.

Zheng Jing'an, who had been the first assistant of the Liang for five years before Yongdao, turned his head and sneered at the loyal martyr who was well-known throughout the country, and said: "Lord Yang, what do you see, are you thinking about how to show loyalty to Zhao Gaochi, you can rest assured, with your talent and learning, it is not difficult to be a big official in Zhongyan with your fame, and when the time comes, I will be writing a few heroic poems, maybe Zhao Gaochi will be happy to give Yu Jingyang a hand, and it may not be necessary for you to be the first assistant." ”

It was confirmed, Yang Zuozhi looked at the word Zhongyan Fengtian and the gray sky behind him.

The old minister raised his hand and pointed to the sky, and said, "I'm just here to watch, watching you Zhongyan die in the country, watching your Zhao descendants being killed cleanly, Your Majesty....... The old minister is here. ”

After speaking, the old minister stretched out his middle finger and index finger and dug into his eyes and gouged out the two eyeballs in public.

Zheng Jing'an, who despised him in the road, sat on the ground with a bloodless face.

The soldiers of the Criminal Department outside the city gate noticed the strangeness of the old minister, raised the crossbow arrow in his hand and was about to shoot the loyal old minister, Yu Jingyang stepped forward, and the distance of more than ten meters was instantly stepped over, and the crossbow arrow was blocked and stopped in time.

The old minister Yang Zuozhi's face was covered with blood, and he yelled bitterly: "I'm just watching here..... "His arms were raised, the two eyeballs in his hands were thrown high, and his head slammed into the city gate with hatred, and blood was smeared all over the city gate.

Blood streaked down the gates.

The eyeballs that flew into the sky eventually landed.

The old minister fell to the ground.

A generation of capable ministers came to an end, and the Great Liang Kingdom really died.

Zheng Jing'an retreated again and again in fright, tears and snot flowed down, and he gave a thumbs up at this time: "Awesome, awesome..... I was most dissatisfied with you before Yang Zuozhi, but now I am the most convinced of you, the death is wonderful, you are awesome. ”

After the criminal enters the city, the entire surrender ceremony is almost the same.

Jing Ming stood on his toes and looked at it a few times, making sure that his father Jing Chen really didn't come, and was about to ask Li Yubai about it, when he suddenly saw more than a dozen sergeants with crossbows and long knives surrounding a big cart
