After nearly a month of trekking, Yuan Qi finally returned to Yanjing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The reason info returned so slowly was because the 100,000 Xin barbarians who were traveling with him couldn't get up quickly, so it also delayed the speed of the army's advance. It wasn't until the 100,000 Xin barbarians were brought to Mingzhou and handed over to Tian Yu that the speed of the march increased. As for the matter of these 100,000 Xin barbarians and their respective relatives recognizing each other, it is naturally up to Tian Yu to deal with it, and I believe that it is a happy ending, which will make these 100,000 Xin barbarians and the 70,000 Xin barbarian warriors who were previously captured more willing to accept the rule of the Han people.

After returning to Yanjing, Yuan Qi immediately summoned his subordinates to formulate a policy for dealing with the 130,000 Xuzhou refugees. After some discussion, 30,000 of them were left in Yanjing to enrich the population resources of Yanjing, and the remaining 100,000 people were divided into two parts, one moved to live in Mingzhou and the other moved to live in Tongzhou. All the relocation expenses and settling-in expenses, etc., were paid by the Metropolitan Governor's Office.

The matter of Xuzhou refugees, under the urging of Yuan Qi, quickly determined the general policy, and the next implementation, Yuan Qi also repeatedly told the government to implement it as soon as possible, and give these inevitable a stable home as soon as possible. In this regard, everyone in the government government headed by Zhuge Liang agreed.

After dealing with the affairs of the refugees, Yuan Qi took a step back to the backyard and asked his mother for peace. This is what Yuan Qi must do every time he returns from an expedition. In her mother's room, Jinyi and Shangguan Mi accompanied her mother, while Sun Shangxiang did not appear by her mother's side because she was still serving filial piety.

After greeting her mother, Yi Yue was overjoyed, but she had no other expressions. Now Yuan Qi is already a twenty-one-year-old young man, and it is a matter of course to serve the country, and in Yuan Qi's years-long military career, Yi Yue has already become a little numb from the initial reluctance. She knew that her son was going to do great things, and as long as she could see her son return safely after every big war, she would be content and no longer ask for anything else. What's more, the myth of Yuan Qi's invincibility is getting stronger and stronger, and every time he returns safely without danger, it also makes Yi Yue more confident and relieved about Yuan Qi.

After visiting his mother, Yuan Qi went to Sun Shangxiang's room again to visit Sun Shangxiang, who was waiting in front of Sun Jianling's throne day and night. Sun Shangxiang, who hadn't shown a smile for a long time, after seeing Yuan Qi. Slowly showed a happy smile, and then hugged Yuan Qi, sharing the joy of Yuan Qi's return from a great victory. Time is gradually diluting Sun Shangxiang's pain of losing his father, the two hugged each other, no one spoke, but each other's hearts seemed to have been entangled together. There is no need to communicate with each other through words.

The next day, Yuan Qi walked out of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in front of him, and went to the general to see the recent achievements of Wang Yezi and Ma Jun, and he didn't know if the Tiannu scattered flowers and a new type of warship with a clapper rod had been developed.

As soon as Yuan Qi stepped into the prison, he heard Ma Jun's angry roar: "Why! This is already the third time." Every time the prince goes out on an expedition, you will reduce the amount of money you spend on the prisoners. Now please give me a reason!"

The object of Ma Jun's questioning. He is a civil official in his thirties, and judging by his attire, he should be an official in charge of distributing funds for research that will be supervised. Just looking at the side face of this person, Yuan Qi had already recognized him. This person was one of the scholars from the Hanmen who came when Yuan Qi first issued the Juxian Order. Although he couldn't call his name, Yuan Qi was still affirmed in his heart.

Now. Facing Ma Jun's questioning, this person said with some trepidation: "Master Ma, don't shout, let's sit down and talk about something, okay?" We can't eat and walk around. ”

Ma Jun ignored this person's words, and still shouted: "I'm not afraid of the shadows, where are the missing funds? If you don't make it clear, let's go to the prince and make trouble!"

Seeing that it didn't make sense, the official simply became tougher: "Just go, don't think that this official doesn't know that you will be a prisoner, the prince has set a lot of funds, but there is not a single copper plate left that you will spend every month as a prisoner, is there no cat in it? Who believes it?"

"Ben Hou Xin!" Yuan Qi's majestic voice sounded behind the official. Others don't know, but Yuan Qi knows very well, he does allocate a lot of funds to the general prison every month, but in this era, the price of iron tools is extremely expensive, and the general prison creates countless conventional and unconventional weapons every month, and also takes into account the newly established light, bright, Tongzhou and other places to build agricultural tools, in addition to the study of new warships and red-clothed ballistas and other battlefield weapons, those funds are obviously a little insufficient, obviously Wang Yezi and Ma Jun and others used their technological advantages to save a lot of costs for Yuanqi, in order to achieve the current effect. When someone questioned the unclear accounts of the prisoner, Yuan Qi was the first to stand up against it.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by Yuan Qi's voice, and when the official turned around and saw Yuan Qi, his body immediately weakened in fright and fell to his knees.

Yuan Qi slowly walked in front of the official and said in a deep voice: "Ben Hou can guarantee the innocence of the accounts of the supervisor, and every amount of funds, they have spent where they should have spent. It's you, but Ben Hou wants to ask, where did you get the empty funds?"

The official trembled and said with a frightened look: "Huh...... Princes, those ...... All that money was ...... by the villains Fill your pockets. Yuan Qi had the grace of knowing these poor scholars, so although he was afraid in his heart, he still told the truth.

Yuan Qi's face was as calm as water, he never thought that the officials under his command would have the common corruption problem of later generations of officials, and Yuan Qi hated this.

The official continued to tremble and replied: "The villain is old and young, a family of more than a dozen people, just rely on the villain's fortune to live, and the villain is also forced to be helpless, so he made this decision, begging the prince to forgive the villain, the villain will never dare anymore." ”

Poverty is a problem faced by most poor scholars, and this person's words sounded the alarm for Yuan Qi. In the face of poverty, it is not surprising that in order to make the life of the family better, or out of the thirst for money, they do things that are corrupt and pervert the law. However, poverty cannot be an excuse for these people to be greedy and pervert the law, wealth must be created with their own hands, not by taking such so-called shortcuts!

"How many times have you done that?" Yuan Qi continued.

"Three times. ”

Turning his head to look at Ma Jun, Yuan Qi asked with his eyes. Ma Jun thought for a while, then nodded, and said, "It's true that only three times are not enough. ”

Yuan Qi sighed, stretched out his hand to pull up the kneeling official, and said, "Go to the government office to get three months' salary, and then go home, and don't go back to the governor's mansion to serve in the future." After speaking, Yuan Qi didn't care about this person's reaction, and walked towards the prison in the company of Ma Jun. Although this person's behavior is hateful, his attitude of admitting his mistakes is still positive, presumably what he said about the whole family of more than a dozen people relying on him alone to support him is also true, so Yuan Qi decided to let go of this time, but he can't let him continue to hold any official position.

The official stood stunned in place for a while, tears of remorse fell from his cheeks, Yuan Qi trusted himself so much and gave himself an official position, but he was not worthy of Yuan Qi's kindness, Yuan Qi's mind made him feel ashamed again, but he was relieved of his official position, and there was no physical and financial punishment.

Kneeling on the ground again, the official kowtowed three times to Yuan Qi's back, and then left with tears in his eyes......
