Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 468 An Eventful Summer

Chapter 468 Troubled Summer ([-])
On April 24, the eighth year of Yuanzhuo, the weather was extremely hot. Although there was a heavy rain in the afternoon, it was considered to have brought a little bit of coolness to the capital, but when the sun came out and the water vapor evaporated, the weather was even more stuffy. It's uncomfortable, there are very few pedestrians on the street, if there is nothing important, people would rather hide at home than go out for a walk in such hot and humid weather.At the last moment, a horse from outside the Changchun Garden arrived. The knight on the horse looked anxious, and his new grass-green military uniform had been soaked into dark green with sweat. He rolled his saddle and fell off his horse outside the garden gate panting. Steady on his feet, he couldn't wait to take out the fire card from his arms, and handed it together with the briefcase on his back to the sergeants of the Shanpu Battalion who had heard the news.

"Master Ma, Master Zhang, the Jiangxi Babaili urgent army report is here." He Tie, the commander of the Shanpu Battalion who learned the importance of the [-]li urgent military report, did not dare to neglect, took the military report and rushed to the Minister of Military Aircraft Dan Ningju at the guard office.

"What? Hurry up at eight hundred miles?" Ma Qi, who was copying the abbreviation, shook his hand, and a bean-sized drop of ink fell down, staining the abbreviation he was writing, but Ma Qi didn't care about that right now. Abbreviated, suddenly got up, walked to the door in three steps at a time, took the military newspaper box in He Tie's hand, but didn't open it immediately, looked at He Tie and said, "Where is the sage?"

"My Majesty, the Majesty has been exhausted for many days, and I just fell asleep not long ago, and I dare not disturb the Majesty, so I came to seek advice from Ma and Zhang first." He Tie replied calmly.

"Oh." Ma Qi responded casually, took the military newspaper box and walked back to his desk, took out a bunch of keys, opened the box, took out the military newspaper inside, tore off the seal, and only glanced at it , his face immediately turned a little pale.

"Master Ma, this military newspaper..." Zhang Tingyu stared at Ma Qi for a long time before recovering, so he had to ask.

"Oh, Mr. Zhang, please read." Ma Qi shook his head and handed the general newspaper to Zhang Tingyu.

"How did this happen?" Zhang Tingyu quickly glanced at the military newspaper, the sweat on his head immediately came off, and he didn't care to wipe it off, stomped his feet and said: "It's a big deal, Mr. Ma, you and I have to go to the Holy Spirit immediately." " Ma Qi hesitated for a while, but finally nodded heavily, and trotted towards Yanbo Zhishuang Pavilion with Zhang Tingyu.

Yinzuo has a lot of things on his mind these days, and he sleeps poorly. Today, he got confused for a while and was woken up by Gao Nianying, but when he heard that it was an urgent military report from Jiangxi, he didn't care about the attack, and immediately declared Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu met.

"Your Majesty, the Wuning and Yongxiu counties of Jiujiang prefecture pulled up the flags and set off the cannons. The Bailian Sect thugs ransacked the yamen of the two counties and occupied the county seat. Liu Siyuan, the governor of Liangjiang, is here to send the emergency documents." Ma Qi immediately knelt down when he saw Yinzuo He fell to the ground, raised the emergency documents above his head, and told the general content of the general's report one by one.

What?Inverted?Yinzuo's mind buzzed for a moment, the veins on his forehead throbbed, suppressed his anger, and waved his hand to signal Gao Nianying, who was by his side, to go forward and hand over the general's newspaper.Unfolding the military newspaper and taking a closer look, Yinzuo is even more furious-Jiangxi was originally a place where the White Lotus Sect was rampant. Since the implementation, the interests of local rich households and landlords have been seriously damaged, so that the White Lotus Sect has continued to grow here, and even violent tax resistance has occurred. Violently resisting taxes, beating and killing tax collectors who came to the door to collect taxes. Later, fearing the government's suppression, they raised flags and fired cannons, saying "do justice for the sky", gathered people to rebel, and attacked Wuning County. The next day, Xiushui County also raised their flags. Under the command of the White Lotus Sect, the mob captured Wuning and Xiushui counties. Most of the officials and a small number of garrison troops in the two counties were killed, and the rest were captured. The two counties fell.

Go fucking do justice to the sky!I am God!Anger surged up in Yinzuo's heart, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Well, the banner of Liangshanshui bandits has been played out, hehe, it's very good to do justice for the sky! What do you two loves think?"

"Suppress!" Ma Qi said without hesitation: "Your Majesty, I think that activities that harm the country and the people like the White Lotus Sect should be completely wiped out, leaving nothing behind."

Zhang Tingyu was startled by Ma Qi's murderous words - more than [-] people participated in the riots in the two counties, how many people will be killed if the suppression continues?Zhang Tingyu took a peek at Yinzuo's ashen face, moved his lips a few times, and forced himself to say: "My lord, I think it is right to suppress such a fierce thug, not suppressing them is not enough to clear the country's law, but I think this matter It should be caused by the instigation of the White Lotus Sect. If there are so many blind followers, if they are wiped out all at once, the damage will be too heavy, and it will harm the peace of heaven. I think it is the best policy to suppress and appease. Please think twice."

Ma Qi retorted unceremoniously: "Master Zhang's words are justified. When our Qing Dynasty is using troops abroad, we can tolerate villains making trouble. Besides, we have enough food for our court soldiers, so why bother with those who seek rebellion?" People compromise and ask for appeasement? Your Majesty, I think that these bandits should be wiped out quickly, so as not to poison the local area. If the bandits spread, or there is chaos in the past, it is unknown. Please learn from me!"

Fuck, damn Bailianjiao, grandma's, always popping up from time to time to make trouble, oh, the errands of the Ministry of Promotion and Industry are all done, it should be a book by now, what is this brat dawdling about? !Chaos of the Ming Dynasty?I'm afraid I've said this too much, but if the White Lotus Sect is allowed to go on fooling around, once there is a loss in the taxation of the two rivers, they will still fight overseas. of!Yin Zuo thought for a while with a livid face, then slammed the table and said: "Suppress! I have a decree: to order the commander of the Liangjiang Military Region to immediately dispatch the Eighth and Ninth Armies to attack, and Chen Miao, the deputy chief of staff of the two general regions, will be in command , be sure to wipe out the White Lotus Sect thugs in the two counties within a month, and those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy! As for those who surrender, they will be imprisoned first, waiting for my order." As soon as Yinzuo Jinkou opened, Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu couldn't care less In order to quarrel, Zhang Tingyu drafted the edict made by Yinzuo, handed it over to Yinzuo for review, and used Yuxi, and hurriedly sent someone to Liangjiang Military Region.

Good things don't go out, but bad things can spread thousands of miles. This emergency military report just arrived in the capital at the end of the day, and it spread around the time of You. The well-informed people have already known it, and even various versions of rumors among street restaurants have spread. Come out, even the news that the Holy Majesty was furious and sent troops to suppress it spread well.According to rumors all over the city, Hongyang, who got the news, had no intention of staying in Pan Heng in the Ministry of Industry, hurriedly tidied up, then got up the sedan chair and went back to the Lingering Garden, ignoring the greetings of people along the way, and hurried into the study.

"Mr. Xiao, there is a big disturbance in Jiangxi. Ben Baylor heard that Wuning and Yongxiu counties of Jiujiang Prefecture in Jiangxi have fallen into the hands of bandits. It is said that the White Lotus Sect is stirring up trouble. What should we do?" Hongyang Lian was full of faces. There was no time to wipe off his sweat, and he hurriedly said before he sat down.

"Oh?" Xiao Yao raised his head from a stack of manuscripts and glanced at Hongyang, but he wasn't too surprised.

"What's the matter? It's already time, sir, you're not in a hurry?" Seeing Xiao Yao's calm expression, Hongyang couldn't help asking.

Xiao Yao laughed and said: "Your Majesty may not be in a hurry, but the second master is in a hurry? Once the policy of sharing food from the farmer to the mu and paying the government and the gentry together is implemented, if there is no follow-up method to support it, the world will be chaotic in the first place. A while ago, as for the White Lotus Sect just taking advantage of the chaos, it is not surprising that ringworm is a serious problem. Some people thought that the emperor sent troops to suppress the banditry. It was a foregone conclusion, and at this time when the people's hearts were in turmoil, they did not use the power of thunder to wipe out the banditry. How can it shake Xiaoxiao's heart? But this matter may have something to do with the second master."

"Me? Huang Ama won't let Ben Baylor take charge of the battle, right?" Hongyang looked at Xiao Yao suspiciously when he heard that this matter might be related to him, and blurted out.

"Where did the second master think, even though the second master can be considered to have a little knowledge of military affairs, he has never led a soldier, and the holy master is slightly inferior to others, so how can he hand over the army to the second master?" Xiao Yao laughed loudly. laughed.

"Then..." Hongyang thought for a while, and thought it was funny, but he didn't understand what Xiao Yao meant by saying that this mess had something to do with him.

Xiao Yao glanced at Hongyang with a smile and said: "The Holy Majesty is probably scolding the Second Master right now, hehe, the Holy Majesty is waiting for the things in the hands of the Second Master to come to an emergency, and it is time for the Second Master to act on this charter, um , there are still three days until the early court, the second master might as well go to the book tomorrow."

Hongyang smiled and said: "Naturally, Ben Baylor originally planned to get the book as soon as possible, but..."

Although Hongyang's words were not complete, those subtexts could not be concealed from Xiao Yao's calculations. Xiao Yao explained with a smile: "Hehe, the second master's doubts are nothing more than the fourth one. At this time, Shangben is the best one. The timing, the Holy Majesty will understand. Well, if the prediction is not bad, I am afraid that the elder brother will also write the book during this period of time. Hehe, if the Holy Majesty sends someone to clean up the mess in Jiangxi Province, whoever will be The final winner, I am optimistic that the second master will win, even the Holy One is afraid of it."

"Why did you say that, sir? Huang Ama has always treated my eldest brother and me equally, and there is no bias. Where does this good intention come from?" Hongyang thought carefully for a while, but he didn't realize that his father was treating him What's wrong with my stature, I had to ask inexplicably.

"How old is Second Master?" Xiao Yao asked without answering.

"Huh?" Hongyang looked at Xiao Yao in a daze for a long time, and then said in doubt: "Ben Belle just had his [-]th birthday at the beginning of the month, why?"

"Sixteen? Hehe, yes, it should be seventeen if you count the age. The elder brother got married last year. Why hasn't there been any movement from the second master?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile.

"This..." Hongyang paused and said, "There have been many political affairs this year, and wars have broken out again. Maybe Huang Ama has forgotten about it."

"Forgot? Hey, even if the Holy Majesty forgot, there is still the Empress and the clan's mansion, so it's impossible for them to forget all of them too? The reason why the Holy Majesty didn't mention this is to wait for the second master to win. , and then choose a good marriage for the second master, I think the Holy Majesty's will should be like this!" Xiao Yao said firmly.

Hongyang thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao encouraged Ben Baylor, and Ben Baylor is very grateful, but this matter is too vague, so it's better not to mention it, um, anyway, Ben Baylor will be there tomorrow morning." Go into the garden and hand over the sign to ask for the interviewer, Mr. Lao will take care of you tonight." Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, but didn't say any more about it, and the two of them discussed the regulations again...

It was very hot, even though the sun had already slanted to the west, and even though the sea breeze was strong, the sun was still hot on the body, and the sea breeze was even hotter. Not only did it not bring a trace of coolness to the body, but it was suffocating uncomfortable.Yun Yu stood on the bow deck of the "Weisheng" with a serious face, staring at the sea level in the distance, as if he didn't feel the slightest feeling of the heat wave, and his heart was filled with anxiety—four days, the first The fleet stayed in this ghostly place for four days, and the pre-war seminars were held several times, but there was still no one-size-fits-all solution. It was impossible for Yunxi not to get angry, but it was useless to be anxious. At this moment, he could only wait. The final decision can only be made after hearing the news from the shadow.

"My lord, look quickly, pigeons, pigeons, it's pigeons!" A guard standing behind Yunyu yelled suddenly, and all the busy naval officers and soldiers in the room full of boats stopped their work. One by one stared at the two homing pigeons flying around the flagship, not to mention cheering, they didn't even dare to breathe out, for fear of scaring the two cute elves away.Two grayish-green homing pigeons circled the "Waesun" several times, retracted their wings suddenly, and fell towards a small box placed on the top of the cabin. Several pigeons had been waiting not far away for a long time. The sailor hurriedly ran forward, sealed the door of the pigeon cage, lifted the pigeons in the cage together, rushed down the top of the cabin, and rushed towards Yunyu in a hurry.

The letter was not too long, but it was written in secret language. Although Yunti was eager to know the contents, he could only hold back his temper and wait for He Zhen to translate the letter. Li kept walking back and forth, his stern face was covered with sweat...
