The matter of quelling the rebellion in Anping Prefecture continued to be firmly controlled by the cultural and educational ministers.
They will draw city defense troops from various states and counties outside Haojing City to form a third, larger, pacification army.
Not only that, because of the shortage of money and food in the Ministry of Household Affairs, part of the food and salary for the third quelling army will be spent from the Taifu treasury; while the General's Office and the Fifth Army's Office will provide them with part of the weapons, baggage, war horses and mounts.
The most important thing is that at the suggestion of Moroccan, Leshan and other generals under the General's Mansion will participate in quelling the rebellion.
Correspondingly, the cultural and educational ministers formed a tacit understanding with the Queen Mother regarding Dong Qi Bo's rebellion using Qi Xun's death as an excuse.
Qi Xuan's death was related to the Queen Mother.
The Empress Dowager used him to fish, but he became so sneaky that Qi Xun died suddenly.
It would be very unpleasant for this matter to spread out, and it would be a devastating blow to the reputation of the Queen Mother.
In exchange for not intervening in Anping Prefecture's quelling the rebellion, the Queen Mother turned a blind eye to Dong Qibo's rebellion. She also mobilized the power of the cultural and educational disciples to criticize Dong Qibo's "wolfish ambition".
Public opinion helped the Queen Mother occupy the moral high ground.
The two sides hit it off immediately, and the dynasty dispersed. Only the general, the prime minister and a few other important ministers stayed in Fuyao Hall to discuss detailed regulations for quelling the rebellion.
Lu Qian and his party walked slowly out of Fuyao Palace and followed the Chi Road to the south gate of the imperial city.
The honorable nobles laughed and laughed, got into their own carriages and sedan chairs, and swaggered through the market surrounded by their guards. They each returned home to find their own fun.
These honorable men cannot be counted on to govern the country. They have no ability to march and fight. Nowadays, what else can the military honors of Dayin do if they have no time to eat, drink, have fun, and live in debauchery?
Other civil and military officials returned to their respective yamen to serve as directors.
The size of the third anti-rebellion army will be far greater than the previous two. Moroccan even took the initiative to invite the nephews of General Le Wu to join the anti-rebellion army. This is a bit of a win-win situation for the general and actively shares the credit with his nephews.
That makes sense.
With a stroke of genius like Morachan, the third legion to quell the chaos will definitely receive strong support from the General's Palace.
The fine ordnance and armor of the Forbidden Army system, as well as the different blood mounts tamed by countless excellent horse farms in the Forbidden Army system...
The general has promised to provide sufficient support to the third anti-rebellion army.
Just thinking about these sophisticated ordnance, armors, and those different blood mounts worth thousands of gold makes people drool!
Many civil servants have made up their minds to get involved in it and make a big fortune first.
So, they ran very fast one by one.
The guards waiting at the south gate of the imperial city, as well as the mighty motorcade, quickly dispersed, and in the end only a few groups remained.
Lu Qian rode the Black Cloud Beast, stroking its sharp horns, and smiled as he watched Li Zi stand in front of Bai Changkong.
Bai Changkong looked at Li Zi expressionlessly: "Li Honglu, Dong Qibo is causing trouble. This is your official duty at Honglu Temple. If you don't go back to Honglu Temple to take charge and stop me, what are you doing?"
Li Zi glanced at Lu Qian, nodded, and then said leisurely: "Mr. Baishan, I just want to ask, where is my wife? My son has returned home, and your family is Shuang. Where is she?"
Bai Changkong's face became extremely ugly.
He looked at Li Zi with flickering eyes, frowned, and remained silent.
Li Zi smiled: "Mr. Bai Shan got married to my family. Could it be that he had some ulterior motive?"
Li Zixiao looked at Bai Changkong, his eyes sweeping around his waist.
He remembered that he had indeed seriously injured Bai Changkong last night, and used his magical power to directly break open his body and dig out two of Bai Changkong's waists. He disliked the fishy smell of the thing, so he threw it directly in the backyard of the Yushunfang Survey Department.
If a person loses his waist, he will die.
Why does Bai Changkong look so energetic? His face is red and he looks better than usual?
At the south gate, there were some civil servants walking slowly looking towards this side.
Feeling the tense atmosphere between Li Zi and Bai Changkong, these curious civil servants did not approach, but they did not leave either. Instead, they watched from a distance with great interest.
Bai Changkong looked at the civil servants, then at Li Zi in front of him, and suddenly shed two lines of hot tears.
"Master Li, for Shuang her, she..."
Bai Changkong looked up at the sky, tears falling like rain, falling down his cheeks, scattering dust bit by bit.
Li Zi took a step back.
With these words, there is no way to continue the conversation. Bai Changkong, an old man, actually shed tears in public. With his current reputation in Haojing, if word spread that it was Li Zi who forced Bai Changkong to cry, he, Li Zi, might not want to gain notoriety.
Far and wide?
Lu Qiance rode up and said with a "haha" smile: "Master Bai will not say that Bai Lu was so worried and angry that she died of a serious illness, right? Moreover, the reason why she became seriously ill was because of my father's persecution... This pot,
I can’t bear it!”
Bai Changkong's tears suddenly stopped miraculously. He lowered his head, a touch of heat rose on his face, and a few tears turned into steam and dissipated.
He stared deeply at Lu Qian and said quietly: "Isn't it?"
Lu Qian smiled and shook his head: "Show some respect, Lao Bai, don't you know what happened to Bai Lu? Hao Jing was haunted a few days ago, wasn't she the one who caused it?"
Lu Qian nodded towards Li Zi and said calmly: "Master Li, your son almost became the weakling. That girl Bai Lu from Baishan's family, haha."
Lu Qian looked at the busy civil servants around him, amplified his voice, and said loudly: "Master Bai, the female ghosts in the Imperial College are led by your family Bai Lu... But you have succeeded in being alive in the world by driving away the female ghosts in the Imperial College.
The name of the saint..."
"You didn't do this yourself, did you?"
The expressions of the surrounding civil servants suddenly changed, and then the gazes of many people looking at Bai Changkong became extremely eerie and subtle.
In the Imperial College, Bai Changkong, with his so-called "awe-inspiring spirit", swept away tens of thousands of female ghosts in an instant and saved a hundred thousand Imperial College students. As soon as this incident came out, Bai Changkong's reputation in Haojing City was comparable to those individuals in the history of culture and education.
Saint, sub-sage.
Scholars looked down upon each other, and many civil servants had long disliked Bai Changkong.
However, now that he is protected by the 'saint halo', no one dares to offend Bai Changkong for no reason.
But as soon as Lu Qian said these words...
Many civil servants have made up their minds, no matter whether those female ghosts are related to Bai Lu or not, in short, they will instruct their disciples to spread this matter.
Even if there is no real evidence, we still have to pour some dirty water on Bai Changkong’s head!
Not to mention, in the past two days, there have been rumors in the market that Bai Changkong sold his daughter to seek glory, and that a great sage from the "Etiquette" actually offered his distant niece to the emperor in exchange for a title!
Bai Changkong's expression changed slightly. He glared at Lu Qian angrily. Just as he was racking his brains to argue, a Xiangteng car pulled by a big green mule came over.
The car arrived beside Bai Changkong, the car curtains were lifted, and a beautiful face like a flower was revealed.
Although beautiful, this little face is sickly, pale, and haggard, looking like someone who has not yet recovered from a serious illness.
She glanced at Bai Changkong through the car window and said feebly: "Master, didn't you agree to accompany me to Jingning Temple to offer incense? Yeah? Brother Lu family, I haven't seen you for some time."
Bai Changkong laughed "hehehe". He cast a sneer at Lu Qian and said calmly: "Master Li, that's what I was going to say just now. Weishang is seriously ill and is recovering. She and you
Erya is already a couple, and when she gets better, Erya will just come and take her home."
Lu Qian's eyes widened and he looked at the face that looked exactly like Bai Lu in shock.
This...should be another method of Paradise Palace, right?
After being silent for a while, Lu Qian laughed: "It turns out that I made a mistake... Mr. Li, congratulations, congratulations, you have such a good daughter-in-law. Haha, I wish you and Miss Wei Shuang the best in their case."
, grow old together.”
Li Zi's expression became extremely strange, as if someone had stuffed three kilograms of dried cow dung into his mouth.
Lu Qian smiled dryly with a 'hehehe', winked to the left and right, and rode away at a quick trot.
Let Li Zi and Bai Changkong tear them apart.
Li Zi was silent for a while, then suddenly jumped up: "Tianyang Gong, Tianyang Gong, my Erya seems to have met the gangsters by mistake. I suspect that they are the demons of the Jiuyin Sect."
"Mr. Tianyang, Mr. Tianyang, will you take Erya back to the Survey Department and discipline him for a while?"
The 'Bai Lu' poked his head out of the carriage and called out to Li Zi softly: "Father-in-law, why are you so cruel? Where is Erya? I miss him a little too."
As if Li Zi didn't hear anything, he jumped on his mount with big strides, shouted loudly, and left after Lu Qian on his fast horse.
Bai Changkong smiled slightly, cupped his hands towards the civil servants who looked "bored" around him, and said leisurely: "You sirs can prove to me that Mr. Tianyang was corrupted by that eunuch... He actually
Telling lies in broad daylight, spreading rumors to cause trouble, saying that Wei Shuang has turned into a female ghost, it is simply ridiculous!"
"Weishuang is right here. Sir, you can see clearly that she is a pure and good girl."
Bai Changkong suddenly raised his right arm: "Eunuch, shameless!"
All the civil servants nodded one after another, quoted scriptures one by one, and cursed the eunuchs below Yu Changle.
At the south gate of the imperial city, a group of eunuchs bared their teeth and looked at these civil servants. You are just scolding Lu Yi, why do you involve us? This matter has nothing to do with us eunuchs!
Bai Changkong pretended to be coy, then took a few guards and surrounded Xiang Teng'er's car and headed south.
Whether it was the pacification of Anping Prefecture or the rebellion of Dong Qibo, this matter had nothing to do with his Imperial College. He had a lot of time to accompany his 'poor' 'granddaughter' and go to Jingning Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings.
After traveling for more than ten miles, Bai Changkong abandoned his mount and jumped into the carriage.
In the carriage, in addition to the girl who looked exactly like Bai Lu, there was also a woman with silver hair, but her appearance was as pretty as a twenty-eight-year-old beauty. Only a woman with a pair of eyes as deep as the abyss was sitting there quietly.
Bai Changkong knelt down and bowed to the woman in the little carriage: "Your Majesty, thanks to Your Majesty for strategizing, otherwise I would not be able to explain today clearly."
The woman waved her hand gently: "Is that young man Lu Qian? Hehe, it's a good tonic."
"Then I have seen through the origin of Li Zi. The remnants of Qiqiao Pavilion are members of the side sect of Sanlan. They issued the order of Paradise to have Qiqiao Pavilion submit to our sect. Otherwise, their descendants will be wiped out."
