"It's boring..." After leaving the execution ground and leading the team back to station outside the government office, Ye Hongyi felt very bored.
I originally thought that I could do something here, but I didn't expect that this thousand-household official in Suzhou Camp was a coward.
She just deliberately exposed a corner of her dress, and no one dared to touch it.
Ye Hongyi knew that this was not because he was afraid of her, but because he was afraid of Xuanjian Division's methods and the military power in Fang Jue's hands.
Now that she is here, she must have brought enough power to suppress the remaining troops of Suzhou Camp.
The Qianhu official knew this very well.
"Thank you, Lord Ye, for taking charge of me." Qin Shiyi bowed gently when he saw Ye Hongyi.
The two of them are considered equals, so they don't need to be too polite to each other, just be polite.
Ye Hongyi cupped her hands and said, "Mr. Qin, I have heard about your majesty for more than a month. It seems that you are really restricted in the Censor's Office in the capital."
"Haha." Cai Yan chuckled from the side.
Qin Shiyi also heard the joke and said: "Master Ye is joking. I am just following your majesty's order to detect evil spirits here and punish them immediately."
"I heard that you asked you to kill all the chief officials of the Ganzhou government?" Ye Hongyi continued to joke.
"Ahem... Those treacherous and cunning people deceive the emperor, pervert the law, and are corrupt and corrupt. How can such sinners be allowed to breathe under the emperor's sword!" Qin Shiyi spoke righteously, and he was really upright.
He is indeed a tough guy.
As for Master Qin, Ye Hongyi had long known that his Geng Jie was a completely honest minister.
Many times he admits death and even His Majesty dares to impeach him.
It goes without saying that His Majesty sent such a person here just to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
The northwest needs a thorough cleaning.
"Okay, Mr. Qin, now that you are killing people in Suzhou, when do you plan to return to Beijing to resume your duties?" Ye Hongyi asked with a smile.
Qin Shiyi coughed and said, "I was just going to ask Mr. Ye when he will return to Beijing. Can I accompany him?"
Cai Yan suppressed a smile and saw Qin Shiyi's timidity.
It turns out you are not so fearless.
Ye Hongyi was even more direct and said with a smile: "Master Qin doesn't dare to walk alone, is he afraid of being thrown into the wilderness?"
On this trip, when Qin Shiyi came, there were not many guards.
When he returned, he did not dare to be so careless.
The reason is very simple. He had a great time killing people in the northwest, but he also offended powerful people everywhere. If he dared to stand alone, he would definitely die somewhere in the corner.
Don't think that those reckless people care much about the majesty of the Emperor's Sword.
"Yes..." Qin Shiyi laughed at himself, "I killed too many people and offended too many people. If I don't return with the army, I'm afraid I will die on the way."
"If I die, wouldn't it be a great loss to our country? I'm afraid there will never be another loyal and upright minister like me."
Qin Shiyi was not afraid of flashing his tongue, and his confidence in his words revealed a secondary quality, which made Ye Hongyi find it interesting and childish.
But I felt that he was right.
"My lord, it is true. If you die here, it will really be a great loss to the Great Xia court... Therefore, I have reminded you that if the general is willing to go back, he will go with us to Ningzhou first, and then join the army and return to the capital.
." Ye Hongyi smiled.
"Going to Ningzhou?"
Qin Shiyi was surprised: "Why are you going to Ningzhou?"
"Prince Ning is planning to rebel... At this moment, I'm afraid it's over." Ye Hongyi estimated.
"What?!" Several people were shocked at the same time.
Cai Yan: "Prince Ning actually rebelled?"
"Prince Ning has rebelled?" Qin Shiyi's eyes lit up, and he held the Emperor's Sword in his arms with both hands!
Ye Hongyi said quickly: "Mr. Qin, please don't act recklessly. With an identity like Prince Ning, you cannot kill him even if you have the Emperor's Sword. His crime requires a joint trial by the three divisions and the royal clan before it can be publicly decided.
.”
Anyone who dares to kill the prince without permission is guilty of a crime, even a rebellious prince.
As long as they are not killed on the battlefield, once captured alive, they cannot be killed privately and must be sent to the capital to be sentenced.
"Master Qin, do you still have something to do in Suzhou? If it is resolved, I plan to leave for Ningzhou today." Ye Hongyi reminded.
Qin Shiyi nodded: "Nothing's wrong, we've killed everyone who deserves to be killed."
"Aren't you here to investigate those related to the Ganzhou case? Why don't you investigate?" Ye Hongyi said jokingly.
Cai Yan smiled secretly and said nothing.
"It's just an excuse." Qin Shiyi admitted openly.
Cai Yan gave a thumbs up.
Damn, my Lord Qin, you are really my idol, can you say this directly?
"In that case, will Master Cai want to return to Beijing when we set off in the afternoon?" Ye Hongyi asked by the way.
Cai Yan said helplessly: "The officials sent by the Ministry of Civil Affairs to serve in Ganzhou are not accustomed to the climate again. I have to wait for a few days. You two should go first... I am just patrolling the censor, and no one will harm me.
.”
"Are you not acclimated to the local environment?" Qin Shiyi heard this and immediately became murderous.
"No, I'm really not used to the climate this time, and I didn't deliberately delay my trip. After all, this is a bitterly cold place. After staying in the mild Central Plains for a long time, I will definitely not get used to it when I first come here." Cai Yan quickly defended him.
Cai Yan knows why the last batch of officials who came to Suzhou to serve were not successful.
Qin Shiyi was a talented killer, and he was really capable of killing someone again.
"That's true...as long as there is no deliberate delay, it's understandable." Qin Shiyi's tone was much gentler.
Afternoon.
When I heard that Qin Shiyi was leaving, the people in Suzhou City lined the streets to see him off. The people lined up in a farewell line that was several miles long.
"Master Qin, please go slowly!"
"Master Qin, Qin Qingtian, have a safe trip!"
"Thank you, Mr. Qin, for bringing a bright future to Suzhou!"
"Ugh, Master Qin is a good official. Now that he's gone, we the people of Suzhou will be oppressed by those dog officials again!"
Listening to these words of praise, Qin Shiyi sat on the horse and squinted his eyes with a smile, which was very useful.
Everyone is motivated by profit when doing things, but some people are looking for peace of mind and reputation, and some are looking for material gains.
For the former, the people will hold them high; for the latter, they will be trampled under their feet by the public opinion of the world and will never stand up.
"Master Qin, walk slowly." Cai Yan also came to see him off in person. Seeing this scene, if he didn't say he was envious in his heart, it would be a lie.
As a public official like the Censor, isn't this the scene that I want to see the most? It can be regarded as my lifelong wish.
"Master Cai has also worked hard. You have been tired these days. After returning to the capital, I will report your achievements to the Yushitai and His Majesty." Qin Shiyi also comforted Cai Yan.
This person is also principled, but his courage and confidence are a little lacking. If he is cultivated, he will not be the second version of himself.
Qin Shiyi felt that he was very suitable to his taste and planned to promote him.
"Thank you, sir..." Cai Yan was not shy. Of course he also wanted to be promoted. If he said he was not greedy for rank after becoming an official, wouldn't this be a slap in the face?
"Master Qin, this trip is really fruitful, isn't it?" Ye Hongyi joked.
He gained a good reputation again, made another killing, and picked up a good seedling that could be cultivated.
Do you think this harvest is small?
"Master Ye is not bad either. I heard that outside Liangzhou, our army captured the four northern Liangzhous. Your Majesty will also reward you based on your merits when you return to Beijing." Qin Shiyi cupped his hands and said.
Good news does not need to be concealed.
Not to mention Qin Shiyi, it has been another month since Tuzhou was acquired, and the entire Daxia region knows about it.
There was no one in charge in Suzhou, so Cai Yan was too busy, otherwise these good news would have been posted everywhere.
"Rewards based on merit..."
Ye Hongyi shook his head: "I'm afraid it's more than just a reward."
…
Tuzhou.
He Feng, who had just won a few small victories, successfully overpowered the other battalion commanders and became the well-deserved first military officer in Tuzhou.
But after sending back the good news, about half a month later, I got a reply.
Seeing that the content in the letter was almost the same as what Fang Jue had reminded him, He Feng sighed: "He is truly the most talented person in the world. He actually guessed His Majesty's thoughts."
He Feng looked outside the camp. Next door was Wei Ran and Sun Yi's camp.
"General, what's wrong? What did Your Majesty say?" Xiao Neng asked, "Can you return to Beijing?"
"What are you thinking about?" He Feng rolled his eyes.
Returning to Beijing so easily means that the trip to the north is not in vain. Tuzhou cannot live without him as its commander for the time being.
Xiao Neng sneered: "Then what did your Majesty say?"
"With Tuzhou settled, these four states will also be stable. Your Majesty will start to reward merit..."
"Then why do you look so sad?" Xiao Neng was puzzled, "Isn't this a good thing? Even if we don't have the main credit, we can still have some soup, right?"
He Feng shook his head and said: "Rewards are based on merits, and punishments are naturally based on crimes."
"Who should be punished?" Xiao Neng was stunned. He had never heard of anyone who disobeyed orders or was defeated in the war. What should be punished? This chapter has been completed!
