Chapter 107 Order to Suppress Bandits
Shen Yuanping went straight into the palace, "Long live my emperor!" Shen Yuanping knelt on the ground to greet Emperor Jingkang.

"Why are you here?" Emperor Jingkang asked directly.

"I'm Muxiu today. I came back to accompany my wife to go out for a day. I didn't expect to meet a bandit at Xiaoping Mountain not far from the imperial city," Shen Yuanping said directly.

"It's unreasonable, you have nothing to do, right?" Emperor Jingkang was furious, he didn't expect that there would be bandits under his nose.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, there is no serious problem between the subject and the lady!" Shen Yuanping replied respectfully.

"As long as it's okay, Shen Yuanping, I order you to adjust the army immediately and take all the bandit dens for me." Emperor Jingkang said sharply.

"I take orders!" Shen Yuanping clasped his fists in response!

"I want to have no bandits before the exam next year!" Emperor Jingkang said in a low voice with unquestionable firmness.

"Yes!" Shen Yuanping responded in a low voice!

"I will send Wang Jian and various local officials to cooperate with you!" Emperor Jingkang continued.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shen Yuanping quickly thanked him.

"Go back to the barracks!" Emperor Jingkang waved his hand.

"I obey the order!" Shen Yuanping hurriedly responded.

After leaving the palace, Shen Yuanping sent someone back to the Duke's mansion to deliver a letter and then went straight back to the barracks.

"Ma'am, the Duke sent a letter saying that he went back to the barracks directly!" Mu Zhige had just finished packing when Feng Quan came to report.

"I know!" Mu Zhige responded, his face was full of worry, Shen Yuanping should have gone to suppress the bandits, and he didn't know if there would be any danger.

"Madam, the Duke may have something to do in the barracks, don't be angry!" Seeing Mu Zhige's sullen face, Shui He tried to persuade Mu Zhige with worry.

"Go down, I know!" Mu Zhige waved to Shui He, and went to the small study to practice calligraphy by himself, so as to calm himself down.

On the next day at the morning court, Marquis Pingnan went directly to play, "Your Majesty, the Lord Protector ignored the Xishan camp and neglected his duties..."

"Okay, Shen Yuanping found bandits in Xiaoping Mountain. I have sent Shen Yuanping to suppress the bandits alone. Now Wang Jian and Pingnanhou each lead a group of troops, and the troops will be divided into three groups to suppress the bandits together," Emperor Jingkang ordered in a deep voice.

"I take orders!" Wang Jian hurriedly responded.

"Your servant takes orders!" Ping Nanhou also quickly knelt down trembling, knowing in his heart that he had offended the emperor, and also knew Shen Yuanping's position in the emperor's heart.

After the court, everyone congratulated Wang Jian and Ping Nanhou.

"Congratulations!" Hubu Shilang and others spoke one after another.

"Thank you, thank you, I will treat you all to a drink when I am triumphant!" Wang Jian said proudly.

But Pingnanhou was full of bitterness in his heart. He was over 50 and had never fought a war. How could he suppress the bandits.

Song Shi'an went to find Emperor Jingkang, "What's the matter with Mr. Song?"

"Your Majesty, Marquis Pingnan is not a general, please be sympathetic to the lives of soldiers!" Song Shi'an knelt down and kowtowed.

"Old Song, Gu promised you back then that you would be a good monarch who loves the people like a son!" Emperor Jingkang said with a smile.

Song Shi'an still knelt on the ground and didn't get up.

"Old Song, the lonely soldiers for Marquis Pingnan will be the lonely Jinwu camp!" Emperor Jingkang said helplessly, this stubborn old man.

"Please punish the minister!" Song Shi'an kowtowed in shame.

Now that the Jinwu Camp is in the hands of the prince, my worries are all in vain.

"Mr. Song, get up quickly, I won't break my promise to you!" Emperor Jingkang helped Song Shi'an, and those people would miss a little old love as long as they were honest.
