According to historical records, although the night of bleeding in the imperial capital was extremely tragic, it did last only one night. By the morning of the next day, the notice of the imperial forest began to appear on the streets of the imperial capital:

"Have you guys had enough fun? Get back before noon!

Di Lin

March 27th”

※※※

Historians are often part-time gramologists. They all believe that there are big loopholes in this notice. First of all, the order is unclear: Who is the "baby"? How can a person "get out"? Secondly, the term "noon" is also very vague: When does the so-called "noon" start? Is it today "noon", or tomorrow or which "noon" in the Year of the Ox or Horse Month? And, what is "play"?

In short, they believed that this was a sign that was full of mistakes and useless, and the ironclad evidence was as strong as a mountain, which fully exposed the wrong behavior of the drafter Di Lin not studying seriously in elementary school and often skipping classes. Therefore, they further inferred that if Di Lin had received ideological and moral education seriously when he was a child, he would not have become such a cold and bloody person. Finally, he concluded that patriotic ideological and political education must start with children...

But the fact is that before twelve o'clock that day, most of the soldiers of the Far East returned to the camp - they understood that their commander Di Lin was not a good object to discuss grammar knowledge - by 1:00, the troops began to count the number of people. The chief guard Gopula took Di Lin's personal guard to the street, and saw that there were still Far East soldiers staying on the street to "play" - various reasons: I didn't see the notification, I misread the time, I misunderstood the notification, I misunderstood the "play" and forgot to come back - I immediately hanged him to death.

After two o'clock, Sterling's Imperial Guards began patrolling and suppressed a group of rascals who had just passed the terrifying scoundrels who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to rob money. As a result, in the afternoon, the order of the imperial city was basically peaceful.

People in later generations don’t understand: Why did a famous general like Di Lin indulge his subordinates in plunder and kill civilians so much? There are many explanations, but the explanation of the young historian Tang Chuan is the most convincing: "Di Lin has no choice. He used high pressure and severe punishment to rule the army. If he often gave his subordinates some opportunities to vent and plunder and make money, his troops would have been mutiny long ago - his troops were always the most morale and combat-oriented among the entire Zichuan family army (later history proved that it can be compared with the "Xiuzi Camp" of King Guangming!), and the highest loyalty (referring to the personal loyalty to Di Lin, not to the loyalty to the family)! The only flaw is: the cost of creating such an army is too high... so high that the family cannot bear it."

After quelling the rebellion, General Zichuan Ganxing began to reward meritoriously and issued a series of dazzling personnel orders:

The former chief of staff Luo Minghai took office as the head of the family. After hearing this order, Zichuan Xiu secretly said to Zichuan Ning: "It's better to just go to the temple to invite a Buddha statue to take the head of the president. Anyway, everyone doesn't speak up. Compared to the smiling face of the Buddha statue, it looks much better than Luo Minghai's stinky face."

Former Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard, Sterling, acting as the Central Army commander, was responsible for reorganizing and reorganizing the Central Army. This is the only person in the Zichuan Ganxing personnel order that everyone agrees. Sterling can be said to be what everyone wants, and people expect that he will quickly remove the word "agent" in front of his official title.

The most unacceptable thing is: after the order was restored, the accused Di Lin of indulging his subordinates and killing innocent people and flying into the Supervision Hall like snowflakes, causing the new Chief Inspector Di Lin to sign and approve one by one in thousands of complaints every day - he was so tired that he had suffered from knuckle inflammation for several days. But there were also benefits: the ugly word that he had been shameful since childhood actually became comparable to a calligrapher in a week - although it was limited to a few words: "check", "no", "this", "di", "lin".

Combining the grudges between Emperor Lin and Luo Minghai, this appointment made it difficult for everyone to understand Zichuan Shenxing’s true intentions: Did he deliberately use the hatred between his subordinates to restrain each other and control each other, or... But looking at his old and confused appearance, he is not like a person with such political skills—or is it just a simple and unintentional one?

As a result, at Luo Minghai's inauguration ceremony, Di Lin, the chief inspector who should have attended, did not attend; Luo Minghai came at Di Lin's inauguration ceremony, but the burning light of hatred in his eyes made the senior family officials present feel that it was incredible that he did not pounce on Di Lin and bite him.

The Supervision Department is responsible for supervising the administration of the Commander's Office. The traditional relationship with the Commander's Office is originally: discussions on Monday, quarrels on Tuesday, scolding on Wednesday, throwing watermelon peels on Thursday, and a standstill on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday - now everyone is expected to upgrade to an uninterrupted battle throughout the week. The staff of the Commander's Office and the Supervision Department have been prepared for gastric ulcers, and many people have gone to buy life insurance in advance.

The former director of the administrative department and deputy commander Ge Shan, had been removed from office for speaking for the rebellion, but due to the accumulation of a large number of civil affairs work after the rebellion, it lacked efficient handling. After Luo Minghai's request, Zichuan Chanxing agreed to let Ge Shan "make meritorious service with crimes" and temporarily preside over the daily administrative affairs.

The former deputy director of the administrative department and deputy commander Zichuan Xiu had a unclear position and unclear knowledge. He relied on his little contribution in the process of suppressing the rebellion and was arrogant and sympathized with the rebels - what are your contributions? Didn't you just accompany the group of dead ghosts in the Central Army to drink, have fun and watch the yellow discs? Do you really think Lei Xun was killed by you alone? - It also made the Chief Zichuan Shenxing angry, which was really a very evil crime! However, due to the pleading of the Chief General Di Lin and the acting Chief General Stirling, the magnanimous Chief General decided not to pursue the matter, but evacuated Zichuan Xiu from his current position and was assigned to the reserve service - everyone knows that the leader of the reserve service is not as good as a dog in the active service.

So the future King of Light had to cry goodbye to the luxuriously decorated office, comfortable and elegant furniture and beautiful female secretary in a miniskirt. He was extremely sad: the bet on whether the female secretary was a virgin will become an eternal mystery.

The consequences of this order are: One afternoon:

Shirakawa: "Are you wrong? Why are we also assigned to the reserve?"

Roger: "That's right, we didn't speak for the rebels!"

Changchuan: "Sir Xiuchuan, please help us check if you made a mistake - Didn't you hear that Lord Sterling is reorganizing the Imperial Capital's military affairs now? Can you help us walk through his back door?"

Zichuan Xiu pondered: "Now... it's very expensive to go through the back door to make favors. Besides, my personality and dignity don't allow me to do such things..."

Shirakawa: "Bah! You seem to have "personality and dignity"!"

Roger: "Sir, please, for the sake of our stay with you for many years..."

Changchuan: "Yes, sir, at worst, we can raise money to give you "exercise"!"

Zichuan Xiu: "You really make me embarrassed... This is not a matter of money, even if you take out a thick stack of banknotes and give them to me..."

The three subordinates immediately put all their savings on the table after saving food and consumption for a long time.

"…even if Shirakawa is willing to kiss me and doesn't slap me in the face..."

At this time, Zichuan Ning appeared at the door, and Zichuan Xiu immediately said, "I won't kiss you either! How can you do such a thing? Bullying a woman at risk - I hate this kind of person the most!"

"Okay, I'll use your money to help you with activities - but I don't dare to guarantee whether it will succeed. Recently I heard that I'm engaged in a fight against corruption..."

The three of them thanked each other very much.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you are willing to help, we will be grateful if you succeed!"

"Sir, you have worked so hard!"

"Sir, please leave!"

In the evening, Zichuan Xiu and Sterling had a meal in the restaurant.

"A Xiu, I will talk to you about your organization in two days when the general is in a good mood."

"I don't care. There's nothing wrong with the reserve service, I'm free."

"By the way, A Xiu, why did your subordinates suddenly say they were too tired? They asked to be assigned to the reserve service? I felt a pity when I issued the order."

"Oh, Roger's hemorrhoids have been in trouble. Nagagawa is in menopause, and Shirakawa is going to take a physical leave."

"That's a pity. They are all talents - especially the little girl Shirakawa, who is very brave. I originally planned to let her serve as a red-clothed banana book in the newly compiled Central Army, but since they asked... I can't do anything about it."

"Yes, they are all rare - they have played mahjong with me for so long and lost so much, but they still can't tell that I'm cheating - where are you looking for such a Kaizi? If they leave, I will die of loneliness - I'm embarrassed to win Aning's money."

Facts have proved that Luo Minghai, Geshan and other administrative officials have excellent talents. After the disaster, they organized a series of reconstruction work such as extinguishing fires, pensioning the dead, cleaning the streets, rebuilding houses, and arranging relief. They carried out very quickly and effectively. In addition, Sterling's great contribution to the security environment of the imperial capital - the imperial capital finally struggled out of the pain, and was in order. People began to heal the trauma and start a normal life again. Just as the people in the imperial capital were celebrating that the disaster had finally passed -

On April 1, 779, the imperial calendar, a news sounded like April Fool's Day news - it was like a bolt from the blue and still shocked everyone:

"The Far East Commander Ge Yingxing was killed."
