Chapter 761 Dead
Xie Yuan asked:
"How many concubines do you have in your family?"
The young man looked at Xie Yuan with vigilance in his eyes. After a while, he said coldly:
"My Aye raised twenty-five, and I raised eight."
Xie Yuan's expression stiffened for a moment, and he looked at the young Xianbei man in front of him without speaking.
After a while, she said calmly:
"You are mistaken. Since His Majesty's original intention is to liberalize the population, he will not leave such a loophole for you to take advantage of. You do not have an official position, but you are a soldier in the Central Guards. I can kick you out and never hire you." .
If your father has no official position or title, he cannot be reduced. However, if the number of people he supports exceeds the six-digit share of a wealthy commoner, the excess population will be confiscated as official prostitutes.
If you can send it to the official brothel by yourself before tomorrow, you can still make a profit. But if tomorrow comes, His Majesty sends people to investigate and crack down, then you will have to confiscate it and impose a fine, so why bother?"
The young man's eyes swayed for a while, and he murmured something in Xianbei dialect:
"No way..."
Xie Yuan couldn't understand, thinking that after returning this time, he would have to ask Shen Liuzhen to learn more Xianbei dialect, so as not to be blind in the future, so he had to ask:
"What did you say? Can you say it again in Chinese?"
"Oh, it's nothing, nothing..." the young man said quickly, and then asked, "What should I do? General Xie, how about I ask for leave, and I will talk to my Aye when I get home..."
"Go quickly." Xie Yuan responded calmly and said, "According to the old rules, report to your captain and say that you will go home and implement the new law, and I will approve it."
"Yes!" the man responded, spurred his horse and turned around to leave.
She left, and the other trainees finished their daily training, and when it was time to eat, they all left the venue.
Xie Yuanben thought that while the venue was now empty, she would lead her soldiers to practice a few more laps.
As a result, I thought that there might be many people like that young man who were taking chances and did nothing, and I felt somewhat uneasy.
"Let's not practice for now. Call those captains to come to my tent. I have something to say." Xie Yuan pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, heading towards his tent.
The messenger who received the order quickly went to deliver the message.
When Xie Yuan returned to his tent, not long after he sat down, Helan Manzhen and others came one after another.
At this time, they were all eating. Helan Manzhen came over with a roasted leg of lamb in her hand. She came in and sat cross-legged in front of Xie Yuan's desk and watched her chewing it. There was a stubbornness in her eyes that refused to admit defeat. and rebellion.
Xie Yuan raised Danfeng's eyes to look at him, and while loosening the wristband on his hand, he raised the corners of his lips and smiled.
Wei's army has a very obvious advantage: it responds quickly to orders.
In the face of this advantage, there is nothing wrong with holding a mutton leg to listen to training.
After a while, the remaining seven captains came, but they were not as casual as Helan Manzhen, but they could also be seen to be a little dissatisfied.
Sure enough, as soon as one of them came in, he saw Helan Manzhen sitting there chewing a leg of lamb. He sat next to him and complained to Xie Yuan:
"Is there anything that must be discussed during the meal? Commander Xie, this is not the place for you to be bossy and bossy."
If Xiao Erdan, who had followed Xie Yuan in the past, or Ke Sande had been present, he would have been anxious to defend Xie Yuan, but now the person taking care of Xie Yuan is Zhao Nianyou, who is young, can run fast, and is obedient.
, I don’t have big ideas, and I don’t usually interrupt.
So it was very quiet inside the tent.
Xie Yuan smiled slightly and then said seriously:
"You misunderstood. I called you here because there is only half a day left before His Majesty's seven-day deadline. Today I trained with the soldiers, but I found that there were still people who were lucky and deliberately did not change anything or do anything."
She turned to look at Helan Manzhen and said gently:
"General Manzhen, whether you can return to the position of commander depends on whether any mistakes can be found in the western camp after tomorrow. We only have the last half day to check and fill the vacancies for us, and rush to eat.
I’d like to remind you a few words, but that’s not too much, right?”
As soon as these words came out, Helan Manzhen, who was biting the roasted leg of lamb angrily, obviously made less chewing movements, then rolled his eyes, tilted his head and said:
"It's not too much. But what's the use of telling us? We have already taken care of it. How are the soldiers down there? Do we still have to go door to door to check them?"
Xie Yuan lowered his eyes and said humbly:
"Anyone with some knowledge should know that you cannot go against His Majesty's wishes at this time. Those who are confused are probably the soldiers below.
It’s also my fault that I didn’t make it clear. You should seize your time and ask your guards and corps commanders to supervise you step by step. Tell them that even those without official positions must abide by this law. No one can escape, regardless of whether they are barbaric or Han, high or low.
Can't.
If they cannot be demoted, they will also confiscate some property. Let them take advantage of this half-day to ask for leave and go back to check on their own if they have not settled the matter at home."
After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and glanced at the group of them, and asked:
"So, do you have any opinions?"
Everyone felt uncomfortable because Xie Yuan was so "easy to discuss". After all, Helan Manzhen had given orders directly like this in the past, so they subconsciously looked at Helan Manzhen together.
But since Helan Manzhen's armor was scratched by Xie Yuan's sword that day, he has been somewhat afraid of Xie Yuan.
While he was afraid of her, he was unwilling to reconcile with his own fear, so he always used small things to awkwardly support his self-esteem. He always wanted to sing the opposite, but he didn't dare to sing the opposite directly.
So he remained silent under the attention of everyone.
It was the active captain again who took his place and said:
"We are all following orders. If we have any opinions, you Han people are just nagging."
After that, he walked out.
When Xie Yuan heard this, he suddenly felt depressed.
She had re-tied the wristband, and while watching them leave, she raised her hand to support her forehead, leaned on the desk, and thought helplessly:
Am I verbose? Am I ink? I used to say these things to others, but now you say it to me?! This is called respect, respect! Do you understand?!
At this time, outside the tent, a guard captain ran over and shouted in Xianbei dialect to Helan Manzhen in panic:
"General, those two guys started fighting again with their men."
"Let them fight! The guardsmen have gathered here, I have something to say." He Lanman said with a dark face.
"But this time the knife was used! Someone died!"
"What happened?" Xie Yuan came out and asked seriously. Even though she couldn't understand Xianbei, she could tell that the person's tone was urgent.
"Two groups fought and killed one person, and they are still fighting now." The guard said again in Chinese.
Xie Yuan's pupils shrank, he glanced into the distance, immediately got on his horse and ran towards the commotion.
Before Helan Manzhen and the others could react, they only felt Xie Yuan's black clothes flash past, and then Xie Yuan's soldiers separated into a group, got on their horses, and followed with a roar.
