"Lu Zhengyuan was originally from Liang, and came to Daning to enjoy the respect. He was originally the head of the country, but he worked for the rebels. He actually became the Minister of Household Affairs in the Southern Dynasty and implemented administrative decrees. All of them were imitating this dynasty. This is really a heinous crime!"

Xue Qing gritted his teeth and said: "If we don't punish this person, it will be difficult to calm people's hearts!"

He said with gritted teeth, but he didn't dare to say too harsh words. Lu Zhengyuan didn't care, mainly because there was Concubine Yan...

Before this, people were hesitant to speak nonsense because of Lu Zhengyuan's status.

In fact, this was no longer an ordinary rebellion, but the establishment of a divided court.

Lu Zhengyuan was the head of the state, but he became the Minister of Household Affairs in the Southern Dynasties and wrote the Ten Deadly Sins of the Emperor. This was a heinous crime!

"Perhaps Lu Zhengyuan has been threatened, but for the sake of the imperial court's face he could have died, and if he is still alive now, he will be punished with death!"

Fei Tian, ​​Minister of the Ministry of War, also participated in a copy.

Seeing the big bosses starting to complain one after another, if you don't complain at this time, it is politically incorrect, and you are suspected of colluding with the rebels.

So everyone began to criticize and punish Lu Zhengyuan.

"Let's be more pragmatic."

Guan Ning listened for a moment and immediately stopped. He had added too many crimes and it would be difficult to clear his name in the future...

Hua Xinghe, the commander of Jin Yiwei, said: "Recently, I discovered that some officials in Beijing have received letters from the south... I don't know how to deal with them?"

"Send me the roster. Let me first take a look at who they are."

Guan Ning said: "There is no need to make a fuss, Wen Xu is also a conspiracy person."

The roster was placed on the Long Case by Cheng Jing.

The court officials present knew that His Majesty's move was quite clever, and those who had different intentions did not dare to touch this list.

Your Majesty is no longer the emperor who yelled about fighting and killing in the early days of the new dynasty.

In fact, His Majesty is not unforgiving. He has given people many opportunities.

It's just that these people are too excessive and too greedy.

They don't understand His Majesty's kindness.

The Jianghuai region rebelled and even established the Southern Dynasty. The imperial court could send troops to suppress it. Even the emperors of Wei and Liang traveled thousands of miles to come to sue for peace. How could mere rebels succeed?

It's just that Your Majesty doesn't want to go to war easily. The reason is very simple. If you go to war, it will hurt the people. It's the autumn harvest, and you don't want to destroy it.

The rebels in the Southern Dynasty took advantage of His Majesty's kindness!

At this time Xue Qing stood up again.

"Your Majesty, this year's autumn taxes will be collected early. The Ministry of Revenue requires all localities to hand over the taxes no later than November. Now that the time limit is approaching, the rebels in the Jianghuai area will definitely not pay it. What should we do?"

"They definitely won't turn it over."

Guan Ning said calmly: "Perhaps the decree I gave them gives them a reason to collect taxes arbitrarily. After all, these people are not too stupid to bully the people."

"Your Majesty, if you don't turn it over, I think we can directly send troops to clear it out."

Fei Tian stood up and spoke out.

He knew that His Majesty would leave Beijing at the end of the year and go to the front line to confer the title. After the war was over, the conferment could not be delayed, otherwise it would cause a stir in people's hearts.

Especially under the premise that rumors of charity donations have spread.

Before leaving Beijing, the rebellion in the Southern Dynasties must be resolved, at least to a conclusion, so the dispatch of troops to suppress it must be stepped up...

"Let the navy go, I will give Sun Pusheng a secret order."

Originally, Guan Ning wanted to resolve it before leaving Beijing, but now because of Lu Zhengyuan, he felt relieved again.

As long as it doesn't affect the people, it won't cause chaos. There seems to be no difference between rebelling and not rebelling?

No, it's actually better.

Let Sun Pusheng go out to scare them and make them pay the taxes obediently. This will not cause any loss to the court.

The current situation is what he wants to see.

The gentry were raided and suppressed by the Southern Dynasties, and their homes were even confiscated.

You helped me do what I originally wanted to do.

Guan Ning was hesitant before, but now someone has taken the blame for him.

Lu Zhengyuan is also measuring the land and checking the property... This also takes time.

Let this rebellion continue.

Maybe it won't be long before they fall apart due to internal conflicts.

As for the army?

Just go and receive it at that time.

Guan Ning originally planned to recruit new troops, but the call for militarism outside was too high, and the war had just ended, so it was not suitable to recruit new troops.

If you feel sleepy, someone will give you a pillow.

One hundred thousand rebels, just enough to supplement the troops needed by Daning...

This counterattack is excellent.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Southern Dynasty is trying its best to win over Sun Pusheng... Isn't it inappropriate to use Sun Pusheng?"

"Don't worry too much."

Daning Navy was built by Guan Ning, who was kind to Sun Pusheng.

How could Sun Pusheng rebel?

"I will give Sun Pusheng a secret edict as soon as possible. As for the rebellion in the Southern Dynasties, there is no need to worry too much."

Guan Ning said: "Da Ning's territory is expanding, and the Jianghuai area is just a corner. Why do you need to focus on one place?"

This is quite true.

The Liang State had two and a half provinces, and the Wei State also had three counties, all of which were included in the territory of Daning.

Guan Ning left Beijing at the end of the year just to plan this matter.

The larger the territory, the more difficult it is to manage.

Is the whole world a royal land? It is easy to say, but difficult to realize...

"His Majesty!"

At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly walked in outside the palace.

"Letter from the Kled Tribe!"

The little eunuch bent down and presented it.

"You guys, please step back."

Guan Ning waved his hand directly. He had already ordered that any letter from the Klei tribe should be delivered no matter when and where.

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

The ministers left.

They knew full well that the letter from the Klei tribe was a letter from the black-robed king...

The news that the black-robed king is the old Zhenbei king has spread within the court, but no one dares to mention it.

No wonder that after the establishment of the new dynasty, His Majesty did not posthumously honor his father. It turned out to be this reason.

I know it but don't say anything, after all, this matter is too sensitive.

What they didn't know was that Guan Ning had also issued a hush-hush order on the details of the battle on the red clay plains of the Southern Barbarians.

Although he returned to Daning, he was still worried about whether his father Guan Zhongshan was alive or dead...

The battle was so brutal that even Guan Ning, with his powerful body, was seriously injured.

Guan Ning suspected that his father left because of the reason of suppressing the rebellion, but in fact he left because he was seriously injured.

He is like a wolf king, knowing that it is difficult to support him, and he is alone and far away from the wolves...

After returning to Beijing, Guan Ning did not dare to say much to her mother and only reported good news but not bad news.

His mother also seemed to have a premonition and kept asking questions. Later he found out that his mother had a secret relationship with his father. Later, Guan Ning guessed it and deliberately facilitated it, often letting his mother return to Yunzhou to live.

Now when asked many times, Guan Ning did not dare to say anything. He just said that the war was over and there was a lot of work to do.

He has been waiting for news.

Duoyan is in the Kled tribe, and she will send the news back in time.

Guan Ning's hands were trembling while holding the envelope. He had never shown it before, but in fact he was anxious and always thinking about it.
