Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

When camping at night, Qin Hao came to Cheng Shi's camp. Cheng Shi didn't pay attention at first, but thought that Qin Hao came to talk to him about his parents.

"Father-in-law, this trip is dangerous, don't trust anyone." Qin Hao warned in a deep voice.

Cheng Shi was slightly taken aback, glanced outside the tent, and said in a low voice: "You mean that Tongniu County is going to rebel?"

Qin Hao explained: "The heart of defense is indispensable. This time, Ling Buyi and I went to Shouchun to change defenses, just to deter them. If the Wang family has objected, Tongniu County is so close to Shouchun, it is impossible to guarantee that it will not happen." Being bribed, two thousand catties of refined copper is not a small sum!"

Cheng Shi's heart tightened: "Well, what you said makes sense, don't worry, I will be careful."

Qin Hao suddenly thought of a key person, Lou Ben. After all, all of this was Lou Ben's plan. The eldest son of the Lou family's second wife was resourceful, but unfortunately he was suppressed by the Lou Taifu and could not be reused, so he made such a bad plan.

After all, the fifth prince's foundation is shallow. It is quite difficult to push the fifth prince to the throne with the power of the Qin family alone. If he can regain Lou Ben, it will be a good helper.

After returning to his camp, Qin Hao wrote a letter and asked a close friend to let him go to Tongniu County first.

Marching along the way, Qin Hao and Ling Buji successfully arrived at two small counties [-] miles outside Shouchun City to station.

On the day when Qin Hao was stationed, the royal family of Shouchun sent someone to invite Qin Hao and Ling Buyi to the city for a banquet.

Both Qin Hao and Ling Buyi refused because they were busy with military affairs, which also made the Wang family very panicked, especially the rumors in the court that Emperor Wen was thoroughly investigating the case of bad coins. This was undoubtedly a sword hanging over the Wang family. Know when to drop.

Humans are a very insecure animal, 1% of the danger will be infinitely magnified, not to mention the survival of the family, who knows if the Wang family will do something crazy.

"General, bring Lou Ben here." The guard bowed and walked into the military tent.

Qin Hao waved his hand: "Bring him in."

"promise."

Soon a man dressed as a scholar came in, Qin Hao only saw Lou Ben once, it was at Mrs. Lou's 50 years old birthday party, at that time Lou Ben was still full of ambition, but now he is gone He was in high spirits back then.

"General Qin." Lou Ben looked at Qin Hao anxiously. Seven days ago, a mysterious soldier came to Tongniu County to find him, and said something that scared him to death.

Qin Hao said lightly: "Sit down."

After Lou Ben took his seat, he didn't say a word, and quietly waited for Qin Hao's next words. The handle was pinched in his hand, and he had to be cautious. However, after waiting for a long time, Qin Hao kept checking the official documents on the desk and ignored him at all. his meaning.

As time passed, Lou Ben finally lost his temper, and asked in a cold voice: "Since General Qin broke Lou's plan, you can just say what you want."

Qin Hao glanced at him indifferently: "You think too much of yourself, you are just a white body now, what is there to be concerned about?"

Lou Ben's face turned red and green, but he could only endure it. This is also where he was puzzled. With the current status gap between the two, he had Qin Hao at his fingertips. It seemed more in line with Qin Hao's direct exposure of his plot. Interests.

Qin Hao put down the bamboo slips in his hand at this time, and then slapped the table hard: "You are pretentious. You feel that you can't be an official because of the suppression of Taifu Lou, and you have nowhere to display your talents. But if you are really capable, why don't you let it go to any county?" Ling, at least it can benefit one side, and now Your Majesty is eager to seek talents, if you make some achievements, you will definitely be favored by His Majesty, so why waste such years!"

Lou Ben has no way to refute. As a person, Lou Ben can ridicule him for not knowing the hardships of the world and only talking empty words, but Qin Hao is different. He really developed a small and remote county into what it is today within three years. The most affluent county in Yizhou, he can't compare it to this alone.

"You are an idiot who thinks you can rule the country and the world after reading a few books. If you are allowed to ascend to a high position in the future, it will only be empty talk that will harm the country and the people!"

Lou Ben clenched his hands into fists, and finally couldn't help but retort: ​​"You have been the son of Qin's family since you were a child, and you grew up with gold and jade. You don't know the hardships of our Lou family's second wife. Seeing my relatives suffer all kinds of grievances, but I can only smash my teeth and swallow the grievances in my stomach!"

"My uncle's qualifications are obviously not good. Just because he is the son of the eldest son, all the resources of the Lou family are tilted towards him. However, my father is wise and brave, but he can only be released as a small official. Is it fair?"

Qin Hao stared at him coldly: "Teacher Lou is indeed hypocritical, stupid and narrow-minded, but a person like him is just a mediocre person, even if he holds a high position in the future, he will be defeated soon, but you are just now. With a white body, tens of thousands of people in Tongniu County and even the princes of the court can be played with applause, which is the real disaster!"

"What do you think I should do with you?"

Lou Ben's heart skipped a beat, but at this point, he had no choice but to appoint him.

"Based on General Qin's decision alone, I did all of this alone. My second brother Lou Yao knows nothing about it. General, please don't implicate him!"

Qin Hao snorted coldly: "You have deep brotherly love, but you don't know your married wife"

Lou Ben fell to his knees with a plop: "This matter is not related to Yan Ji, please forgive me, General."

Qin Hao sneered for a while: "You have to protect your younger brother, and you have to protect your wife. Are you overestimating yourself?"

"As long as the general doesn't hurt them, Lou Ben's life will be sold to the general, even if he goes up the mountain of swords or under the pan of oil!" Lou Ben is not stupid, if Qin Hao really wanted to kill him, he would have done it long ago. , There is no need to spend such a word of mouth.

Qin Hao glanced noncommittally: "Sure enough, the bad guys are all smart people, but this general still wants to give you a piece of advice. Don't be smart and be misled by smartness. It will bring disaster to your family!"

After finishing speaking, Qin Hao waved his hands: "From now on, you can follow me as an assistant."

"Thank you General for cultivation!" Lou Ben knocked his forehead heavily on the ground, and then backed out.

With such an ambitious person by his side, he naturally has to take some risks, but Qin Hao has enough confidence to hold Lou Ben down, and he is not afraid of him shaking the sky. As for loyalty, Qin Hao does not need Lou Ben's loyalty, as long as he does things ability, and the resources of the entire Lou family behind him in the future.

The aristocratic family has always been the most knowledgeable about current affairs. As long as Mrs. Lou collapses, they are not qualified to compete with Lou Ben for resources. In order to ensure that the family does not decline, the Lou family will definitely stand with Lou Ben in the end On the side, that is to say, on Qin Hao's side.

In Shouchun City, the Wang family is already an ant on the hot pot. Wang Chun looks like a very cowardly person to the outside world, but in fact, this old guy has a good eye.

In fact, the old King Qian'an wanted to marry his daughter Wen Xiujun to Emperor Wen, but because Emperor Wen and Emperor Wenxiu were cousins, he married his niece to Emperor Wen, who is now Queen Xuan.

It's a pity that the old Gan Wang wanted to "start his own business" and become the emperor himself after the world was settled down.

Wang Chun knew in advance, and then informed Emperor Wen, so that Emperor Wen easily extinguished the rebellion of Laogan King An, which shows that Wang Chun is a very assertive person.

In fact, the culprit in this case of bad money was Wen Xiujun. She devoted herself to her natal family, thinking about restoring the glory of the old Qian'an King when he was alive, but she didn't want to think about it. Giving her a lot of preferential treatment is already a great courtesy.

"Father, why did you imprison mother?" Wang Yan asked aggressively.

Wang Chun drank glass after glass of wine. He felt uncomfortable after being an old couple for decades, but for the sake of the Wang family's foundation, he could only hand over Mr. Wenxiu.

"Do you know what crime your mother committed?"

Wang Jing was still kept in the dark, defending his mother: "Could it be that father has rejected our mother and daughter and wants to start a new relationship?"

Slap, Wang Chun looked at the obsessive daughter in front of him, couldn't help it anymore, slapped her across the face, and cursed angrily.

"You idiot, your mother is planning to rebel. She wants to drag our Wang family into an abyss of eternal doom, and take the lives of our entire Wang family to fulfill her ambition. Ling Buyi and Qin Hao's army are just outside Shouchun City." , do you think this is a play house between you little girls? If you are not careful, all of us will be buried with your mother!"

Wang Jing was stunned, and looked at his father in disbelief: "Impossible, how could it be?"

Seeing that she still didn't give up, Wang Chun gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know what your mother is planning? She wants to marry you to Shouchun Guard General Peng Kun in exchange for Peng Kun's rebellion with her, but you fool has been I think she is plotting for you!"

"How could it be? It's impossible." Wang Ji was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and she couldn't accept this bloody reality at all.

A few days later, Wang Chun escorted Wen Xiujun to Ling Buyi's barracks. At the same time, Peng Kun also released Shouchun's defense and invited Ling Buyi to take over Shouchun's defense.

Ling Buyi sent someone to discuss with Qin Hao, and Qin Hao led the army directly to join forces with Ling Buyi.

"General Wang pushed it cleanly." Ling Buyi couldn't believe that Wen Xiujun had done so many things in the name of the Wang family, and even involved the third princess. As the head of the Wang family, Wang Chun didn't know anything about it.

Wang Chun could only bow his hands in embarrassment and apologize: "General Ling should know about the relationship between Wenxiu Jun and Empress Xuan, and what she does never go through me. I have her correspondence here as proof."

Qin Hao actually didn't believe that Wang Chun knew nothing about Wenxiujun's affairs. He probably turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. If Wenxiujun succeeds, he can pick peaches; Everything was pushed to Mr. Wenxiu, this old fox is cunning, he can even betray his father-in-law, so it is not surprising that he betrayed his wife.

But the facts are not important anymore. After all, the three princesses are also involved. If they really want to investigate thoroughly, the status of Concubine Yue will definitely be shaken. This is what Emperor Wen didn't want to see. Wang family.

Qin Hao looked at a letter between Feng Wenxiu Jun and Queen Xuan's younger brother, and couldn't help frowning slightly. This will undoubtedly severely damage the status of Queen Xuan. Not a good thing.

However, after seeing that the three princesses were also implicated in the bad coin case, Qin Hao was relieved. Emperor Wen estimated that each of them would hit [-] boards in this matter, and then they lived in peace. Give Emperor Wen a headache.

After Qin Hao and Ling Buyi took over Shouchun's defense, the impact of this matter was kept to a minimum. Even the people of Shouchun didn't notice it, they just thought it was a normal army change of defense.

However, after Qin Hao and Ling Buyi checked Shouchun's arsenal, they couldn't help being secretly surprised. Shouchun's arsenal was abundant and sophisticated, even surpassing many frontier troops. Obviously, these were all obtained by Wen Xiujun through various channels The capital collected for rebellion, if Shouchun really rebelled, these ordnance are enough to equip tens of thousands of soldiers, it is definitely not a small force.

Qin Hao asked Lou Ben to continue to lead the team to check the grain storage, and the final inspection results surprised even Lou Ben.

Ling Buyi broke out in a cold sweat when he saw the specific figures, and hurriedly dispatched Babaili to inform Emperor Wen of the situation.

I have to admit that making counterfeit coins is really profitable, and Mr. Wenxiu was able to get so many weapons and food without making a sound.

Qin Hao and Ling Buyi stayed until it was close to early summer, and then re-handed over Shouchun's defense and returned to the capital. However, Wen Xiujun had already been secretly executed. In a remote small county, it is estimated that it will be difficult to return to the capital in this lifetime.

The third princess was fined to contemplate at home for a year, and she was fined a lot of property. Emperor Wen actually knew his daughter very well. He knew that fines were more uncomfortable for the third princess than not being allowed to go out.

Qin Hao's return also made Cheng Shaoshang and Qin Yuan's relieved. Finally, the battle did not start. Qin Yuan's still complained about Emperor Wen. His son is a good doctor of the Taiyuan Academy. Why did he continue to lead troops to fight? .

However, when Qin Hao returned to the capital this time, the court had been arguing for several months because of the bad coin case, and the most quarrelsome issue was how to carry out coinage reform.

Before the Western Han Dynasty, five baht coins were used. Later, Emperor Li abolished five baht coins and issued new currencies. As a result, because of the immature minting technology, bad coins were flying all over the sky, the economic order was chaotic, and a lot of riots were caused. Due to some natural disasters and wrong taxation policies, the common people were in dire straits, and various aristocratic families rose up one after another to overthrow the tyranny of Emperor Li.

Therefore, after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, he took the lead in restoring the five baht coin, and still adopted the coinage policy of the Western Han Dynasty. However, there was a drawback in this way, that is, the casting technology of the five baht coin had been handed down a long time ago, and many vassal kings had mastered it. This technology is also the reason why Wen Xiujun can produce a large number of bad coins.

Of course, there are a lot of quarrels in the court. In fact, it is nothing more than two issues. One is whether to adopt new coinage technology, and the other is who should lead if new coinage technology is adopted.

To put it bluntly, it was still a struggle for power. The aristocratic families all wanted to make a fortune in this matter. Emperor Wen went to court every day, and he was a headache just because of this one issue.

Qin Hao stayed in the Taiyuan Academy and did not participate in this dispute. He still helped Emperor Wen organize the memorials all day long.

On this day, Emperor Wen looked at the mountain of memorials in front of him that needed urgent instructions, and opened one of them was about coinage reform, and then opened it to see that it was still about coinage reform. He was so angry that he threw the bamboo slips on the ground.

"What's going on with Zihan? Don't you think I'm annoying enough? Call him over!"

The eunuch soon came to Tai Academy.

Qin Hao tidied up his clothes calmly, and then came to Emperor Wen.

Emperor Wen threw the bamboo slips at Qin Hao's feet one by one: "Look, all of them are coinage reforms. Can you have something fresh every day? You've been arguing all day long about this shitty thing. Do you want to do other government affairs? ?”

Qin Hao picked up the bamboo slips silently, and then bowed slightly to Emperor Wen: "Your Majesty, minting coins is a national policy, which is related to the livelihood of millions of people. Every day bad coins are rampant, the people will lose one more day. There is no delay."

Emperor Wen sighed when he heard the words, and said irritably: "I don't know, but you can see that these memorials either recommended the crown prince to take charge of the coinage reform, or supported the third prince. Are they for the common people? Selfish desires!"

In fact, Emperor Wen was more inclined to the prince for the heir to the throne. After all, he was the eldest son, and it was justifiable to inherit the throne.

Although the third prince is shrewd and capable, but after all, he does not occupy both, and the prince has no major faults. It is impossible for him to let the third prince inherit the throne. If the name is not right, there will be big problems in the future.

However, Emperor Wen was in his heyday. Seeing so many ministers supporting the prince, he was somewhat wary of the prince. He didn't want to see the prince have too high a reputation. He could pass the throne to the prince, but the prince could not snatch it!

"Come here, Zihan, sit down, today we are not monarchs and ministers, you are also a widow who grew up watching you grow up, what do you think the widow should do?"

Qin Hao didn't evade, sat down after slightly bowing, and said casually: "This reform of coinage must have a prince sitting in charge to show the importance of the court, but in the end, it only needs a prince."

As soon as the point was reached, Emperor Wen suddenly realized, yes, as long as there is any prince, he does not only have two sons.

A few days later, in the court hall, Emperor Wen ordered the fifth prince to lead the coinage reform. The news instantly shocked the government and the public. The fifth prince, who had never had a sense of existence, was actually pushed out. Emperor Wen's thoughts.

But for this good job, the fifth prince was depressed, and even complained in front of Emperor Wen, saying that he didn't like handling government affairs and wanted Emperor Wen to take back his life, but he was scolded by Emperor Wen.

On the other side, Qin Mansion.

Lou Ben was holding a bamboo slip in his hand, he was fascinated by it, and he put it down slowly after a long time, Zou frowned and asked, "The Qin family wants to put the chip on the Fifth Prince?"

Qin Hao took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. Tonight, you should memorize the contents clearly. Tomorrow, you can serve as the Fifth Prince. I have already pointed out the way for you. Then I will Let's see how you go."

Lou Ben hesitated a little, bowed and saluted: "No."

Then back out.
