Watching Li Chong leave with his soldiers, Feng Yi spat hard at Li Chong's leaving figure, and then asked Han Qian in a low voice.
"Ah, you also have something to fall into the hands of a son of a bitch like Li Chong?" Han Qian asked pretending to be surprised.
He didn't sleep well last night, because he was thinking about what other means besides killing people and silencing the people of Xinchang Hou Li Pu to make up for the flaws in Feng Yi and Kong Xirong.
"Well, speaking of it, it was me and Lao Kong who were confused. We went out to fool around a few days ago, but we didn't want to sleep with the wrong person, someone we shouldn't have slept with. I thought that people were unaware of this, but I didn't want to think about Li Chong, a bastard.
"Yesterday, they actually used this matter to blackmail us, asking us to obey His Highness the Third Highness in the future," Feng Yi said dejectedly, "Looking at you, they should have something in their hands, but how dare you give Li Chong
Does this bastard look at you?"
Han Qian saw Feng Yi's constipated look and wondered if he had slept with his father's little wife and was afraid that Li Chong would expose the matter?
"What happened to me was a trap set by this bastard Li Chong on me. Although I don't want them to publicize this matter, but his mother has made me anxious and publicized the fact that they set a trap on me. Isn't it right?
Will they benefit?" Han Qian said fiercely.
"Yes, what happened between us and Chun Niang must have been set up by this bastard Li Chong. Otherwise, how could the three of us be in the same bed in a daze when we woke up? Even if the three of them were drunk and ran into the wrong room,
But except for the three of us, no one else saw it. How could Li Chong, a bastard, know so clearly?" Kong Xirong was not even wary of Han Qian, and revealed everything with his brain.
Chun Niang was originally a singer in Wan Hong Mansion. Kong Xirong and his father Kong Zhou loved her very much and helped her redeem her life. However, Kong Zhou was a general in the army, but he was afraid of his wife and did not dare to be an upright general.
When my mother takes a wife as a concubine, she builds a house outside to accommodate the beautiful woman.
Although Chun Niang could not be regarded as Kong Zhou's concubine, Han Qian had heard about her relationship with Kong Zhou. If this matter spread, it would definitely be a scandal that would make the Kong family laugh at others for many years.
Han Qian didn't expect that Wan Honglou's methods were as insidious as he imagined. He didn't expect that they had already tampered with Feng Yi and Kong Xirong, waiting until the critical moment to use such a scandal to force Feng Yi and Kong Xirong into submission.
"This matter is easy to handle. If you deny it to death, Li Chong can bite your bird off? Who dares to spread obscene words and insult your family? Xi Rong grabs a knife to kill people. Even if this matter comes to His Majesty, he will not
It's your fault." At this time, Han Qian shared his hatred and gave advice to Feng Yi and Kong Xirong.
"That's right!" Feng Yi didn't think he was pretty, but he was more ruthless than Kong Xirong. Hearing what Han Qian said, he thought that if he really wanted to break up, there was really no need to be so afraid of Li Chong.
"Young Master, the food is ready..." At this time, Zhao Ting'er came over and said.
Seeing Zhao Ting'er walking in, Feng Yi and Kong Xirong's eyes widened and they asked Han Qian directly: "When did such a stunning little slave appear in your room?"
When Han Qian first saw Zhao Ting'er, he felt that she was rare and beautiful. However, Zhao Ting'er was too thin and frail at that time. She was wearing a Gebu skirt with many patches, so it was not so eye-catching.
Zhao Ting'er lived in the house for a short period of time, but she was more moisturized than before. She put on a plain dress, and her face was as white and beautiful as a hibiscus freshly emerged from the water in the cold winter.
Zhao Ting'er waited in front of Han Qian every day, and Han Qian taught her the knowledge in dreams, but she didn't think anything of it. However, Feng Yi and Kong Xirong saw Zhao Ting'er for the first time, and their eyes almost dropped.
"The daughter of the tenant of the farm my family has set up in Baohua Mountain is very unruly and doesn't listen to orders very well." Han Qian looked at Feng Yi and Kong Xirong said with a slight smile as if he was seduced by lust.
"Not obeying orders? What if you sell this little slave of yours to me?" Feng Yi blurted out, but then thought about the same problem between Han Qian and him. He is so beautiful and looks innocent. Han Qian must have tried every means to do it.
I couldn't give it to him no matter what. I shook my head and said, "Forget it, you must be reluctant to let go of this little slave. It's your fault that I don't have such bad luck."
Han Qian laughed and didn't respond. He invited Feng Yi and Kong Xirong to drink in the main room.
Feng Yi and the others would definitely not know what Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, was planning secretly, but Han Qian and his father Han Daoxun had been hiding in the house all day, and Fan Xicheng and the others had no access to any information. If he wanted to know what was going on in the court today, he still had to
Ask Feng Yi and Kong Xirong.
Feng Yi was a little absent-minded, but perhaps Han Qian knew the biggest clue. There was no need to hide anything else. Without Han Qian asking, he told Han Qian the latest news in the court today.
In the next few days, every evening when Feng Yi came out of the Linjiang Marquis Mansion, he would drag Kong Xirong to Han Qian, who was still at home sick, to deliver news.
It is not that no ministers in the court knew about the consequences of the epidemic among the hungry people in the four cities, and there were even quite a few people who knew it very well. However, due to various constraints and entanglements in the past, this matter has been suppressed and has not come to the surface.
Han Daoxun lifted the lid at this time. No matter those who had a little sympathy for the hungry people, or the generals who were worried that the disease would spread to the city, or the princes who tried every means to increase the strength of Shouzhou, they did not want to let it go anymore.
Suppress this matter.
The day after Han Qian was uneasy in the house, someone came to defend his father Han Daoxun about the plague.
Although the person who defended Han Daoxun in Shang Shu did not necessarily have good intentions, and perhaps wanted to implement the plan to drive out the hungry people, the Emperor Tianyou suppressed the original accusation against Han Daoxun on the imperial censor's platform, and in the end Han Daoxun was suppressed.
Still, he was fined one month's salary for the crime of making noise in the court.
Of course, many people complained that Han Daoxun knew that the hungry people were infected with the epidemic and advocated evicting them regardless of their life and death, which was a lack of mercy.
One stone caused a thousand waves. The hungry people had been suffering for a long time and had to solve it. However, even if we did not restrict the continued growth of the prince's family, hundreds of thousands of infected and hungry people had to cross the Yangtze River and move six to seven hundred miles north in this extremely cold season.
, Shouzhou and the states along the way did not have enough grain and grass reserves to help the victims, and it was not known how many people would starve to death and freeze to death on the way.
For a time, many ministers, even if they had nothing to do with the second prince Xinwang and the third prince Linjianghou, stood up to oppose this matter.
However, except for Shouzhou and the more distant Xiangzhou, which had large areas of deserted fields, it was impossible for other prefectures and counties to accommodate so many hungry people at once.
The water poisonous plague is relatively mild, but there is no cure in the world. No one dares to allow hundreds of thousands of infected and hungry people to disperse to various states and counties, making it possible for the water poisonous plague to spread uncontrollably across the land of Chu.
.
In addition, if you want to resettle hundreds of thousands of people infected with the epidemic and starving, the money and food consumed is by no means a small amount.
There were many discussions, but in the end there was no solution.
In the end, he was still the minister of the Ministry of War. Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, advised Linjiang Marquis to be the emperor's son. He should follow the example of the prince and King Xin and recruit the epidemic-stricken and famine-stricken people and their families into military camps in the capital. A new army was established in Linjiang.
The troops of the marquis guard Chu Ting.
Prince Yang Yuanwo and King Xin Yang Yuanyan both took charge of the army after they reached adulthood and were responsible for offensive and defensive duties.
Although Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu was underage, Li Pu's proposal could centrally resettle the hungry people infected with the epidemic and avoid the uncontrolled spread of the epidemic. It also reflected the generosity and love for the people of Emperor Blessed and Linjiang Marquis.
On the other hand, after the hungry people infected with the epidemic are selected and the healthy hungry people are observed for a period of time, they can be evacuated to other prefectures and counties in an orderly manner for resettlement. There is no need to intensively drive them to Shouzhou. This can resolve the biggest controversy in the current government and support the support of the government.
There are naturally many of them.
No matter how cautious Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, was in the court meeting, suggesting that the new army under the command of Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu should only recruit people infected with the epidemic and their families as military households in the camp, the generals from Anning Palace and the Prince's line still tried every means to obstruct it.
During the court meeting, Xinchang Hou Li Pu instead suggested that the Wei Mansion, personally controlled by the Prince of the East Palace, take in these epidemic-stricken and hungry people and their families.
In addition to the thousands of horse infantry guards, the East Palace was also granted the title of General Longwu, who was in charge of the 25,000 elite Longwu Army on the left and right. It had the garrison military mansion under its jurisdiction, mainly garrisoning in Moling, Liyang and other counties. It had a large number of farmland and could be recruited.
The 30,000 to 40,000 hungry people infected by the epidemic and their families will not have any problems with money and food.
However, the garrison military mansion under the jurisdiction of the Left and Right Longwu Army was the most fundamental military base of the East Palace besides the Shouzhou Army. Prince Yang Yuanwo was too brave to allow people infected with the epidemic and starvation to mix in.
The court debate remained undecided for a long time, which finally aroused Emperor Tianyou's angry rebuke, and finally issued an order to appoint Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu as General Longque to take charge of the Longque Army.
The Longque Army does not belong to the Sixteenth Guards Army of the Nanya Forbidden Camp, nor does it belong to the Sixteenth Guards Army of the Beiya Guards. They are the tooth soldiers of Emperor Tianyou when he was appointed as the military governor of Zhunnan.
In the fourth year of Tianyou, Emperor Tianyou led his troops to fight against the Yue King Dong Chang in Runzhou. The commander of the Longque Army (the commander of the capital) rebelled in front of the battle and was beheaded by Li Yu.
The Dragon Bird Army was severely damaged in this battle, but due to the rebellion of the general in front of the battle, Emperor Tianyou never allocated new soldiers to supplement it. When he established the Guards and Guards Army, he also excluded the Dragon Bird Army from the Six Guards of the Guards and Guards.
outside.
Although the Longque Army has not been completely disbanded, there are only four to five hundred old soldiers who can barely maintain their establishment. They are stationed next to the Zuo Shenwu Army camp and are under the supervision of the Zuo Shenwu Army. The camp where their family members are stationed is also
It has long been merged into other military mansions.
The Dragon Bird Army seems to have been abandoned, but its organization and flag are still there. At this time, it was given to Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu to collect the people infected with the epidemic and starvation. Except for Anning Palace and the prince's line, no one else could think of a reason to object.
After Emperor Tianyou founded the Chu State, he concentrated all the elite soldiers, horses and families who had been recruited or surrendered through lifelong campaigns to establish military registration near the capital of Jinling. The soldiers would serve in the army for life, and their families would also gather to work in the fields to make ends meet.
This is also the most common military system in the world that separates soldiers and civilians.
It can also be said that the Nanya Army and the Beiya Army were the largest family troops controlled by Emperor Tianyou of the Chu Kingdom.
Among them, the soldiers who are organized into the camp are the fighting soldiers; the place where the family members work in the field is the camp military mansion.
The establishment of the Longque Army is still there, with its flags and two to three hundred old soldiers, but it is basically an abandoned establishment. Over the years, the camp military mansion where family members have been working in the fields, and even the people in the area have been merged into other guards. At this time, naturally Impossible to return.
Therefore, the Marquis of Xinchang, Li Pushangshu, suggested setting up a camp for the Longque Army on the north bank of Chishan Lake in Jiangcheng County, and using the wasteland to collect the epidemic-stricken and hungry people for farming. Emperor Tianyou also approved it, and established a camp in Linjiang Hou, under General Longque, appointed Chen De as deputy commander of the army, Shen Yang as the chief historian, Guo Rong as the supervisor of the army, Li Chong as the recorder and joined the army, and recruited Chai Jian, and Li Zhigao, the eldest son of Xinyang Hou, and others were appointed as Duyuhou. .
At the same time, Emperor Tianyou also gave a special decree to grant a marriage, and betrothed Li Yao, the young daughter of Li Pu, Marquis of Xinchang, to Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu, who was about to come of age, as his wife...
