Fei Tian is the Minister of War, and he knows very well what kind of impact a large number of meritorious awards can have on the army...it can turn a group of docile little sheep into howling wolf cubs!

This is no exaggeration!

The rebel army in the Southern Dynasties was the original Nanfu Army. They were instigated by Dong Zheng because they often stayed behind and did not go to the battlefield. They felt grievances and became the current Zhennan Army!

Do they regret it?

I'm afraid my intestines will turn green!

Your Majesty wants the whole world. Everyone knows that the war will not end here, and there are countless opportunities to make achievements...

But now that he has become a rebel, he has completely cut off his way forward, and has nothing to do with being granted a title. Seeing other people being knighted and receiving fiefdoms, the gap will be huge!

Official notification of a title conferred by the imperial court will directly cause turmoil in the morale of the military, making everyone upset, and it will be destroyed too late...

If His Majesty is merciful and allows them to serve their crimes, it will be a life-saving straw for these people, and they will eagerly grab it...

By then the army will be destroyed without an attack.

As for the Southern Dynasty court...didn't Xue Qing say that?

Since Lu Zhengyuan can hold the power alone, it shouldn't be a big problem.

When people had different thoughts, Guan Ning was still talking. He mainly talked about what he had seen outside, how to respond to the situation, and the great prospects...

Among the people listed, there may be those who have been granted a title but not a land. They are very hopeful at this moment.

"The former army has implemented military reforms. Once completed, most of them will be stationed in place to ensure the safety of the three provinces..."

Guan Ning said: "It took nearly two years to obtain a detailed topographic map. When the General Administration of Land Management and Planning is formally established, the land will be designated for the person who will be granted the title. The time limit should be within two months."

The General Administration of Fief Management and Planning is the yamen responsible for the management of fiefs, and it is responsible for the ownership and distribution of fiefs.

The chief officer was appointed by the second assistant Zhao Nanxing, and now it is about to be officially established. It is not known who will take the chief officer position.

The chief official position has high authority.

The second assistant is accompanying His Majesty, and it is difficult to take care of state affairs at the same time. There should be a new appointment.

After sealing off so much land, it will finally be implemented. Perhaps the vassaling of the vassal state will be completed in the first half of the year...

Other matters were also important. In this court meeting, he did not issue any punishment, which also surprised the courtiers secretly.

However, while His Majesty is away from Beijing, there is a prince supervising the country, which is different from the past.

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

At this time, Guan Hongzhao stood up.

The emperor has returned, and the prince is among the courtiers.

"speak."

"Before your Majesty left the capital, he told his ministers to keep an eye on Murong Sheng, the former envoy of general affairs. His Majesty did not dare to slack off, and finally found out the evidence of his crime."

Guan Hongzhao reported: "Murong Sheng was dissatisfied with his current position and lusted for power. He was tempted by the enemy and secretly collaborated with the enemy."

"In the 16th year of Yuanwu, the Liang envoy came to Beijing with the intention of winning over our important ministers and offering them high-ranking officials. Murong Sheng did not value beauty and money, but valued power. He was moved by this and proposed that if he defected to the Liang Kingdom, he would become the prime minister.

, the Liang envoy did not dare to agree, and when Emperor Liang came, he agreed directly. As a result, Murong Sheng has betrayed the country and collaborated with the enemy..."

"Murong Sheng took advantage of the political affairs to collect the national affairs of our dynasty and compiled them into a book, waiting for an opportunity to send it to the Liang State... After His Majesty rejected the peace request of the Wei and Liang Kingdoms, there was a war in the country, and it was said that His Majesty was militaristic... Behind this was Murong Sheng

The mastermind did something bad..."

Guan Hongzhao reported carefully.

Although the court officials were informed of these important matters, they were not detailed.

Murong Shengzhi and his accomplices are still in prison. They have only been convicted and have not yet been executed.

Guan Hongzhao was waiting for Guan Ning to come back to discuss the matter, so he reported it in detail.

"Murong Sheng confessed to the above crimes, and the only person who knew about his accomplices was Wang Hong, the right deputy envoy of the General Affairs Department...Cabinet Minister Ma Ji and Cabinet Minister Liu Xiwen were close to Murong Sheng and were also implicated. How to deal with it is for your Majesty to decide...

…”

Guan Hongzhao reported in detail at the court meeting that because the case involved a major crime, the main culprit was a cabinet minister, and two other cabinet ministers were also implicated. They all had subordinate officials, and they were each subordinate. If the layers were affected, it would cause a major earthquake.

!

This is also the reason why Guan Hongzhao is cautious.

After hearing such a detailed report, the court officials were also extremely surprised and suspicious.

There was a period of intense public opinion at that time, and it was bluntly stated that the emperor wanted to be militaristic. Then it was passed into law and implemented, which caused even greater shock. Local officials boycotted the imperial court, and later officials in Jianghuai and Jianghuai revolted!

It turns out that the mastermind behind this is Murong Sheng.

Guan Ning already knew that Murong Sheng had different intentions, but he didn't know the details.

"Is he related to the rebels in the Southern Dynasty?"

"have!"

Guan Hongzhao said: "Murong Sheng and Wen Xu colluded secretly, but they did not communicate with each other, but passed the news through people, leaving no clues. Even if they were discovered, they would refuse to admit it..."

"The Liang Kingdom is in decline. What's the point of becoming a prime minister? Are you following someone from Lu?"

Guan Ning's words made everyone slightly startled.

At first they really thought that Murong Sheng was influenced by Lu Zhengyuan.

"Ma Ji and Liu Xiwen will be dismissed first and investigated, depending on the degree of involvement. Those who are unaware will also be investigated and dealt with in accordance with the law, depending on the seriousness of the case..."

This actually sets the tone.

It depends on the plot, just don't spread it too widely.

"The Crown Prince will host it, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will assist, and the Criminal Department will assist. I will report the results later."

"My son, I obey!"

"I obey the decree!"

Guan Ning didn't pay much attention to it. To him, it was a small matter.

"We are recruiting Li Fu to come to the capital to be in charge of agricultural affairs. The other vacancy will be left open for now. Someone will come in soon."

Xue Qing and Fei Tian subconsciously looked at each other.

Both of them knew who the vacancy was for.

"Did the Southern Dynasty pay taxes last year?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, no."

"good!"
Chapter completed!
