Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 772 Prince, He is also an outstanding person through the ages
"Guess whether the prince will ask them to refund the money, and then,"

Bao Zhu, who was in charge of security work in the corner of the venue, quietly tugged Deputy Director Ding who had retreated, and wiped his neck.

If the prince really wants to do this, then Baozhu will be busy later.

Outside the venue, there were not only [-] knives and axes in ambush, but also [-] gunmen, and it was guaranteed that none of them could escape.

As for the personal guards brought by the surrendered generals, they were all well arranged.

"Will not,"

But Deputy Director Ding shook his head: "Your Highness has come to this day because of his honesty and trustworthiness. I don't think His Highness will smash his own signboard. Most of the time he is trying to scare them."

"That's true."

Bao Zhu remained silent. If His Excellency the President wants to be number two in the world in terms of keeping promises, no one would dare to be number one in the world.

The president's famous saying is "I would rather the world blame me than I lose the world."

What is this realm?
Non-saints cannot stand shoulder to shoulder.

But after thinking about it, I still reminded Deputy Director Ding: "Director Ding, you are very knowledgeable, do you know how to write the words "Shoujinbumei?"

"Ok?"

Deputy Director Ding looked at Captain Bao meaningfully, and his cheeks twitched involuntarily, "Xiao Bao, you are very knowledgeable when you speak now."

"I've been by the prince's side for a long time, if I don't make any progress at all, it's not a hindrance to the prince. Thank you, Director!"

With a smile on his face, Bao Zhu took two silver ingots from Deputy Director Ding and put them in his pocket.

According to the exchange ratio of the bank, roughly one gold ingot is exchanged for four silver ingots, Deputy Director Ding is still fair.

However, Deputy Director Ding can't guarantee whether the prince will use one or two demoted generals as a model, after all, some people have gone too far.

Therefore, let Captain Bao prepare. If the prince wants to arrest someone, he must arrest him as soon as possible to avoid accidents.

"Don't worry, this group of people have handed in their sabers and guns, and the prince is also wearing bulletproof vests. Everything is ready, just wait for the prince to throw the bowl."

Having said that, Baozhu still kept his alert state full, his eyes were like sharp arrows aiming at the faces of the generals, and finally stared at the big Chenghua rooster bowl in front of the prince.

There is a gap in this bowl, which has a history.

This bowl is a family heirloom of the prince. It was left behind when the prince fell into Jinchuan. Later, the governor of Sichuan, Bo Qing, spent a lot of money to redeem it from Xiaojinchuan, and sent someone to deliver it to the prince.

After this, the prince used this bowl no matter whether he was eating or drinking tea.

"Daqing Daily" also had a special report, the article was called "Master Jia Jia's Bowl".

The author took another approach to anthropomorphize the bowl. From the perspective of this bowl, he described in detail the scene of Lord Jia Jia sharing joys and sorrows with the soldiers in Jinchuan, reflecting Jia Jia's hard work and simplicity, and the spirit of loving soldiers like sons.

In the market, the market price of Chenghua rooster bowl is around 600 taels, which is about 40 years' wages of an ordinary green battalion soldier.

Although this big rooster bowl was broken and turned into a defective product, but because it is an ancestral treasure of Prince Rui, the value of cultural relics is very high, so the price of this bowl has reached tens of thousands of taels.

A Siha, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was even more willing to offer 2 taels to buy this bowl, but was resolutely rejected by Prince Rui, saying that he wanted to keep it for the prince and grandson, so as to pass on his spirit from generation to generation.

Therefore, this bowl is something that even the rich cannot buy.

The best of the best.

However, even if this broken bowl is worth thousands of gold, at the critical moment, the prince said that it fell, and it fell.

Baozhu is very clear about this.

Deputy Director Ding also kept his focus. He glanced at the group of surrendered generals. The more he looked at them, the less he liked them. He couldn't help but snorted slightly: "These guys are honest on the surface, but they're actually full of bad things, so they can't be trusted."

Bao Zhu nodded and said: "I think so too, it's best to get rid of them all, otherwise there will be no trouble in the future."

Deputy Director Ding shook his head slightly: "It's unrealistic to kill them all. After all, it was the prince who recruited him. You should understand the reason for spending real money and buying horse bones with thousands of dollars. If you really want to kill these guys, who will be there in the future?" Dare to come and vote for the prince? How many people will have to be sacrificed if you really want to gnaw down one city after another?"

"The truth is this, but Director Ding, can you guarantee that these guys will not rebel against the prince in the future?"

Baozhu has reservations about this.

"As long as the prince treats them sincerely, these people should not rebel against the prince. After all, they are all serious officials these days. What do they do that are nourished by being an official?"

While speaking, Deputy Director Ding put the briefcase in his hand under his arm, and casually took off the cigarette on his ear and put it in his hand.

This cigarette was rewarded by the prince just now, so he didn't have time to smoke it.

I am not willing to smoke, I want to keep it and taste it slowly.

Baozhu hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice: "Director Ding, I know you are knowledgeable and your words are reasonable, but the emperor seems to treat the prince well, and the prince still wants to kill the emperor."

"Ok?"

Deputy Director Ding was startled, and almost cut off the cigarette. He settled down and looked around, made a gesture of silence, and complained: "Xiaobao, just tell me what is not good for unity. But don't tell others, it's not good for the prince to know. And don't say such things in front of me in the future, you know, I'm a member of the internal affairs committee now, so I can't know and not report."

"Ah."

Baozhu nodded quickly, and seeing that there was no outsider, Deputy Director Ding had a good relationship with him, so he boldly expressed his thoughts.

It is this group of generals who have tasted the sweetness of recruiting security, and the group of soldiers under them is the only one who obeys their orders. Now even though they have returned to the court, they still hold the military power firmly. The group of soldiers under their hands only know them but not Prince.

If this continues, even if the lord can calm Huguang, once the lord returns to the court, there will be no more demon moths from these gangsters.

"You can think of this question, which means that you have really made progress, but don't worry, I believe that the prince's wisdom is far above you and me."

Deputy Director Ding, who was holding a briefcase between his hands, looked like he was pointing the country, "I guess, the next step for the lord is to solve the concerns you raised. The method is nothing more than controlling money and food, recruiting elite soldiers, and taking back financial, military and political power. Xingyuan."

"Will these people agree?"

Bao Zhu is not optimistic about this.

"It depends on the means of the prince."

Deputy Director Ding took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath, "Your Highness is a once-in-a-thousand-year hero, and it is our blessing to live in the same era as this hero. No big difficulty can stop him, we just need to earnestly carry out the instructions of the prince."

"Yes, yes, no matter how much we think about it, we can't think as much as the prince."

Bao Zhu thought so, and turned his gaze back to the rostrum.

On the rostrum of the Central Committee, Prince Rui was very unhappy.

Sometimes he slapped the table angrily, sometimes pointed with his hips on his hips, and sometimes threw the crown hat on the table, feeling extremely indignant.

Why are you unhappy?
There must be a reason.

The specific reason is that Zheng Dajin, the governor of Hubei, got up and briefed all the generals attending the meeting.

The notification can be described as shocking and appalling, and the crimes are heinous.

The relevant staff of the governor's yamen also distributed the printed internal documents one by one, which recorded in detail the recent illegal and criminal behaviors of the generals in various places who disturbed and harmed the people, ran amok, acted recklessly, and violated the court's laws and regulations.

However, after the internal documents were distributed, there were not many generals who read them seriously, because most of them were illiterate.

The meeting has progressed to this point because everyone knows the reason why Prince Rui called them here.

Some generals couldn't sit still, because they did some of the reported situations.

This made the group of generals not only worried, but chilled. Looking at the imperial guards with knives and guns around the venue, their expressions changed drastically, and they regretted that they should not have held this meeting for the sake of organization.

Some people have cramps in their calves.

Why?

Afraid of being dragged out and chopped up by Prince Rui's order.

Everyone regretted that they shouldn't have handed over their weapons when they entered the door. Now it's all right, there's really something wrong, they don't even have a chance to resist.

However, Prince Rui on the stage did not lift the table to call for someone to be taken, but took up the tea bowl to moisten his throat, looked around at the generals, and said indifferently: "What Mr. Zheng said, do you feel wronged in the slightest?"

No one dared to speak.

Who dares to answer at this time?
Isn't this self-inflicted?

"If you don't speak, it means Mr. Zheng didn't wrong you!"

Jia Liu looked stern, tapped the table with his right index finger, and his face was ashen, "This time, the king led his army to the south, and he didn't want to lose his life, and he didn't want the people to suffer from this military disaster. Treat you preferentially, and keep your promise to give you high officials and rich salary, let you honor your ancestors, but this is how you repay this king?"

The audience was still silent.

"The imperial court has issued a series of documents asking the king to give an explanation. How can I give this account! You are all the people who are recruited by the king. In some people's eyes, you are the people of the king. Now you are useless. You have not only harmed the people, but also brought trouble. My lord, do you want to give me an explanation too!"

"If you don't explain to the king, do you want the king to ask the emperor to take the blame, saying that the king is blind to recruit you people! Do you want the king to tell the court that it is wrong for the king to treat you favorably, and you shouldn't?" I will give you a chance, but I will kill you!"

Jia Liu asked two questions in a row, but the audience was still silent.

Certainly not cold.

Therefore, Jia Liu's eyes fell on Wang Daji who was the first to surrender: "Wang Zongbing, you are the first to submit to this king, why don't you tell me how this king will explain to the court what you people have done."

Wang Daji didn't expect Prince Rui to call his name, he stood up blankly and didn't know what to say, he gritted his teeth for the last time: "I don't understand anything, I will listen to the prince's handling!"

"It's all at the disposal of the king?"

Jia Liu snorted coldly, "Then the king asked you, what does that Song Xing have to do with you?"

"Song Xing?"

Wang Daji was stunned, wondering if he would truthfully answer that Song Xing was his sworn brother.

While hesitating, Prince Rui spoke.

"You don't need to tell me that I know that Song Xing used to work with you in a mine. You burn incense and form a society. What is the name of the Thirteenth Taibao? Your Wang Daji is the Great Taibao, and that Song Xing is the Seventh Taibao. Your Thirteen Among the Taibao, six Taibao have surrendered to the king, and there are seven Taibao who are working for the bandit army, right or not!"

Jia Liu was expressionless.

In fact, in addition to the Thirteenth Taibao, this gang of bandits also had miscellaneous nicknames such as the Four King Kongs, the Five Tiger Generals, the Six Little Ghosts, the Big Dipper, the Eight Tiger Riders, and the Dragon Nine Sons. Messy nicknames such as Qiqi and Sixteen Heavenly Generals compete one by one, just like the masters of the peasant uprising army in the late Ming Dynasty.

It seems that if you don't get these awesome-sounding nicknames, these bandits and generals will not dare to rebel against the Qing Dynasty.

Rebellion has a nickname, just like rebellion does not use a real name, Jia Liu can understand this.

But such an uneducated nickname is ridiculous.

It's not as good as Prince Rui's nickname "Devil Six".

Seeing that Prince Rui even knew about the [-]th Taibao of their sworn brothers, Wang Daji dared to hide it. He honestly admitted that Song Xing was his sworn brother, but explained: "My lord, it was all randomly arranged by outsiders, and it will end from beginning to end. I never took the Thirteen Taibao seriously, they were all arranged by idlers."

He was talking, but was interrupted by Prince Rui.

"I don't care about the past, and I don't want to know that since Song Xing is your sworn brother, this person has violated the king's laws, fished and killed the people, and dare not come to see the king this time. It is clear that he is unwilling to be sincere. Surrender, so, this king can't let such scumbags ruin the reputation of my Qing army and ruin the discipline of the court!"

Speaking of this, Jia Liu waved his hand directly and said to Wang Daji: "Song Xing, you can handle it. This king is responsible to the court and the people, and you are also responsible to this king! If Song Xing can't be dealt with, you, Wang Daji, the registered soldier Don't do it, I will give you travel expenses to go home and farm."

"My lord,"

Wang Daji was terrified in his heart, but his face showed hesitation, because the Thirteenth Taibao had made an oath when they burned incense to become sworn brothers, that they could not live together but hope to die together.

If he led troops to deal with Song Xing, what would the other brothers think of it.

To outsiders, it seems disrespectful.

Killing his brother for the sake of wealth and honor, and telling him how Wang Daji will mess up in the Tao in the future.

While hesitating, Prince Rui said a little impatiently: "If you can't do it, I will send other people to do it. You can pack up and go back to your hometown. For your first righteousness, this king will give you a hundred acres of fertile land. Then you will be a rich man."

The tone cannot be questioned.

Hearing this, Wang Daji couldn't help but shuddered, and gritted his teeth, "Don't worry, my lord, I will take someone to Fang County immediately to take Song Xing's head off!"

"Take it and talk to the king again."

Jia Liu's eyes fell on the faces of the other surrendered generals, and he got up slowly: "I am very happy that you can come to the meeting, which shows that you are sincerely willing to submit to this king, but I also want to tell you something today, Er If you don’t wear the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, this king will not say anything, but since you wear the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, you must know the court’s laws and regulations!”

pause,

"What happened before, this king thinks that you can forgive me if you have not changed your original nature, but in the future, whoever dares to send troops to plunder and blackmail the people, this king will not only take him off his crown, but also destroy his whole family!"
