Civilians raise questions again

"I agree with the Duke of Zhenguo. Morale should not be vented. No matter how powerful we are, the Jurchens are, Huang Jitai is still running away in panic."

The person who spoke was Gu Yichen, the Minister of Revenue of the Ministry of Revenue.

"I agree, too."

"The last general agrees."

The atmosphere in the hall became warm soon.

"quiet."

Emperor Wu said after seeing the quiet;

"All the officials are right. No matter what, our Dawu won, he, Huang Jitai, fled in panic. This matter must be summoned to the world, and the whole world will celebrate together. Furthermore, let Luo Yunhou quickly arrange the city defense and restore the strength of the border army. This girl is a real person.

But I haven't given up."

"Your Majesty's wiseness."

"There is another thing. After letting Luo Yunhou arrange everything, he will lead 10,000 Northeastern defenders and cavalry into Beijing before the New Year, let the Beijing camp and the border troops compete with the imperial guards, and see how the difference is between them. Wang Ziteng, you Beijing

What does the governor of the Yingjie feel?"

Wang Ziteng immediately stepped out and said;

"Your Majesty is wise, I agree. I have always wanted to make such arrangements so that the Beijing camp also knows that there are people outside the people, but there is no chance."

"You, Wang Aiqing, you can do it. I will go to see you then. Don't let me down in Jingying."

"It's Your Majesty, I understand."

"Also, border troops in various places should also step up their training and not slacken."

On the side of the noble, they all claimed that it was.

"I have an idea when I call you."

Shen Zhongxin, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, came out and said.

The nobleman trembled all over his body, and felt a chill in his heart.

Emperor Wu was shocked. This minister was a talented man, and he had a deep heart.

"Shen Aiqing, please say."

"Your Majesty, what is the army here? I have only heard of it before and have not seen it on the spot. I think it is better to call the border troops of nine provinces to enter Beijing for this opportunity. There is no more than 2,000 people. First,

To see the style of the border army below, the second is to check the status of the border army on the spot, so that the court can know the current situation of the border army."

Emperor Wu Zhou Shihong was moved when he heard this. He had never seen the border army before, but the imperial guards in the Beijing camp saw a lot.

I heard about the combat power of the border troops, but I don’t know anything about the actual gap.

"What I said is that what the army here is like and how powerful it is, is it really unknown. Duke Zhenguo is also a veteran of the border army. What do you think about this?"

As soon as the bull from Zhenguo saw Shen Zhongxin coming out, he had nothing to say, and sure enough, a big problem arose.

But when Emperor Wu pointed, he could only bite the bullet and leave. The nobles around him frequently winked at him. He understood the meaning very well, how could he agree?

"Report to Your Majesty, I think it is unnecessary. First, the journey is long, the border troops have worked hard, and it has been a long time to come to Beijing to the northwest garrison. Second, if you come early, you may cause trouble when you see the world of flowers in the capital, the old minister will be too

Prevent problems before they happen."

Niu Qing was very satisfied with his wit, and the noble generals nodded and agreed.

But how could Shen Zhongxin give up? He had to endure it.

"Your Majesty, I do not agree with the Duke of Zhenguo. The first journey is long and the border troops are hard, which is natural. However, the Ministry of Revenue can provide special military salaries for border troops. If you say that you come to the capital early to cause trouble, then you can set a distance.

The border troops came early, and the border troops that were close to each other came late, so that the time for each unit to come to Beijing would be almost the same."

"Besides, it is a big mistake to say that the border army caused trouble. Can all the soldiers of Dawu still make rebellious acts? It is stipulated in advance that they all camp outside the city and should be casually dressed when entering the city, and they should not act recklessly.

There are so many soldiers in the five cities of the capital who can’t stand the few soldiers?”

After hearing this, Duke Zhenguo was furious.

"You, a bastard! The border soldiers are all loyal and brave men of my Dawu. How can they be compared with rebellion? Is it what you think, or is it that your mother fainted last night?"

Shen Zhongxin didn't expect that the Duke of Zhenguo reacted so much.

"It's a shame, it's a shame."

"Then you think about it. Your Majesty, I am also thinking about the court. The army here needs to be rewarded. The food, clothing and expenses are a lot of expenses. The border army is already in short supply, and this is a burden."

Emperor Wu knew that what Duke Zhenguo said was a real thing, so hesitated.

At this time, Gu Yichen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, made a name for himself;

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Zhenguo said it well, but this time, all the fees and user departments came to Beijing. This is a small matter. The big matter is that the border troops gathered. The border troops in the nine provinces are clear at a glance. Your Majesty knew it in his heart after seeing it. Of course,

The gap is also clear at a glance. Dear Dukes don’t want the border troops to come to Beijing, are they afraid that the border troops are vulnerable?”

The Minister of Revenue said this, but the nobles are not convinced. There may not be tens of thousands of elite soldiers, but there are 2,000 elite soldiers in their own headquarters. Who has no backup?

After thinking about it, Duke Zhenguo thought about it, he took advantage of the situation and made some benefits;

"It's still the Minister of Revenue that the Ministry of Revenue is generous. There are too few people like this. Isn't Luo Yunhou ten thousand people coming? We don't have more than half of him. But each person must pay double monthly salary, and the order for the dispatch fee is calculated.

In the past few days, you can’t give your brothers a new outfit to celebrate the New Year. You said that’s right, Master Gu.”

Gu Yichen knew that this old man was not at ease.

But when you change your thoughts, you can only see the truth or falsehood when you come, and grit your teeth and reply;

"Your Majesty, I have no problem with the Ministry of Revenue. Then I will save 5,000 people every time, and the salary will be paid when it comes."

"I said it was real, don't give it half again."

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are a mute."

"Okay, my dear friends, let's do it like this. The competition is scheduled for December 28. The border troops will arrive a month in advance. I have never seen the style of the border troops. This time I will be feasted on the eyes."

Emperor Wu almost started to squat when he saw Duke Zhenguo and Minister of Revenue, and he was in a very comfortable mood. He felt much better during this period.

"Yes, your Majesty, follow the Holy Order."

The two of them also agreed by the way down the donkey.

Dai Quan shouted in time;

"Sanchao."

Emperor Wu was in a good mood and went downstairs, but he thought he wouldn't have the queen's drinks for two cups of wine today.

The purpose of the Chinese civil servants in the court was also achieved. They chatted with each other in groups and surrounded each other. However, the nobles and military officers were so sad that they each had a bitter face.

The Prince of Beijing County Shuirong and the Prince of Dongping County Mu Shi did not leave either. Seeing that you were unwilling to walk there and look at him, this was to find a way for me.

"Everyone, if you don't have a leader, go back and rest. Some of them go to our mansion to sit in the evening. Since my father left, I have not been in close contact with you all. It can be regarded as a banquet for you, the younger generation.

, I'm not paying."

"Hey. It's serious, Prince, we old guys don't have that much trouble."

"That's right, I'm not a civil servant, there are so many things to do."

When Duke Zhen saw you all talking in a mess, he spoke bluntly;

"Everyone is not a place to speak, please be careful. Besides, you can give me some insights. What is the border army like now? Can't even get 5,000 elite troops?"

Several generals who had been with the border army said with a wry smile;

"Old Duke, the border army is about to be empty when it is being drawn."

Niu Qing's face changed,

"What, that's all?"

King Beijing Shuirong's face also changed and he quickly intervened;

"You can't say it, you can't say it. Go back first and get together the night after tomorrow."

"Yes, go back and give me a tight mouth."

The Duke of Zhenguo also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly quit.

All the nobles knew that the matter was of great importance, so they dispersed. Jia She and Jia Zhen also felt that the matter was quite small, but the Jia family was not in the army for many years, so they were afraid that there would be something to be implicated, so they hurried back to the Jia Mansion.

The old lady reported to see what the Jia family should do about this matter. The situation has changed too quickly.

When the two of them returned, they passed by the streets and markets and were talking about the victory in the Northeast. When talking about Luo Yunhou, they were also irritable. The reason for the irritability was naturally caused by Yang Hanyu.

After the uncle and nephew arrived at Rongguo Mansion, they rushed directly to Rongxi Hall.

In the main hall of Rongxi Hall, Jia Mu was drinking tea there, and several ladies were chatting and joking there, of course Baoyu was indispensable.

The laughter and joy spread far away, but the uncle and nephew who didn't usually feel anything was wrong today felt a little harsh.

I don’t know why, and the two hesitated until Jia Zheng came over and they breathed a sigh of relief.

Jia Zheng asked in confusion;

"Brother and Zhen'er are doing something here, why don't you go inside?"

"Are you waiting for your second brother? There is another storm in the court today. Which day will it be the end?"

"Second uncle, uncle is right. It's a torment to go to court now."

Jia Zheng was also silent, but his face turned worse.
