Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 462 Miss you!

Baili Junyi ignored Han Qi, walked to the other pots that had been set up, and opened the lids of the pots to check them all.The things in the pot are similar, basically they are things that are difficult to eat, how can you have the strength to fight the enemy after eating such things?
Han Qi knelt on the ground with an expression of resignation.Baili Junyi turned to look at him: "You told me before that the food and grass in your army can last for half a month, so tell me, if I didn't find out that there is no food in the army, how do you plan to spend this half a month?" Months? Let my soldiers eat tree roots, chew bark, and eat these broken rice mixed with sand?"

Han Qi was ashamed and said, "The general deserves to die, please punish him. The emperor had ordered to open the warehouse to release grain, but the local officials in Suicheng didn't open the warehouse on time. The people outside were almost starving to death. The general can't watch They starve to death and ignore it! The people of Suicheng are the families of these soldiers, and all the adult males in Suicheng come here to defend the country, and the general will not be able to watch them bleed and cry!"

The other soldiers had already rushed over, and after seeing Han Qi, they all knelt behind him: "Your Majesty, what General Han did was for the servants and others. If the Emperor wants to punish, please punish the servants and spare General Han!"

Baili Junyi glanced at the kneeling soldiers. They all looked haggard, but they looked at Han Qi with respect.Ye Yi walked over quickly: "Your Majesty, many people gathered outside. They came with rations and said they would return the rations to General Han. Please don't punish the general."

Baili Junyi wanted to go outside the camp: "Go and see."

Seeing the emperor leaving, Han Qi quickly winked at the soldiers behind him: "This matter is up to me, and has nothing to do with you. If you want to join in the fun, get out, get out quickly, you should be on guard, you should be on guard, hurry up!" point!"

"General Han, we are willing to accept the punishment together with the general."

"Fart! I have nothing to worry about. You all have family members. I don't care about being big-headed ghosts. Get out of here quickly. You are no longer needed."

"General..."

"This is a military order, everyone go back!"

The soldiers were silent, Han Qi watched the emperor walk away, gave the soldiers a hard look, and followed quickly.The gate of the tent was full of people, their faces were full of apprehension at this time, they looked at the gate of the tent eagerly, and after seeing Baili Junyi, they knelt on the ground in unison: "I have seen the emperor, please don't punish General Han .”

Baili Junyi looked at a group of people with yellow and thin faces, his eyes became deeper and deeper, he raised his hand, and said loudly: "I have roughly understood what happened. Where is the prefect of Suicheng?"

"The next official is here." An official who followed Baili Junyi came out, with cold sweat constantly breaking out on his forehead.

"I ask you, what about the grain in the official warehouse in Suicheng? I ordered the warehouse to be opened to release the grain, why didn't you do so?"

"The humble minister... the humble minister deserves death, the granary... there is no food in the granary..."

"No food to store? Although I have only been enthroned for a short time, the late emperor will order to stockpile food every year. Could it be that Suicheng has not received the imperial edict?"

"... Received..."

"Then why don't you stockpile food according to the imperial decree?"

"My humble minister... my humble minister..."

Some people below couldn't help shouting: "We handed in the food according to the regulations, and then the food was sold by this corrupt official!"

"Yes, the grassroots can also testify that six layers of grain are collected every year, and then the dog official will sell the grain!"

Baili Junyi looked at the prefect who was kneeling on the ground sweating profusely, pulled out a long sword from his waist, and chopped off his head with one blow!

The people were silent, and then burst into applause: "Good!"

"Emperor Shengming!"

Baili Junyi looked at the people with excited faces, and said in a cold voice: "Everyone, if you still know that those officials are cheating for personal gain, corrupt and accepting bribes in private, even if they are reported to me, if it is verified that it is true, I will give it to you personally." You guys have an answer! General Han Qi used food and grass without permission, this kind of behavior violates the military law, so you must be punished."

The common people were a little commotion: "Your Majesty, General Han Qi is a good man..."

"If it wasn't for General Han, we would all starve to death..."

Baili Junyi spoke again, his voice was obviously very messy, but his voice was clearly transmitted: "I understand that there is a reason for what Han Qi did, but such behavior cannot be tolerated, so I ordered him to be the vanguard, follow me Go out and kill the enemy in person to atone for your sins! Take all the grain that you distribute back. However, I have an unfeeling request. I also ask you people to save as much as possible. You can get food and grass from them!"

The eyes of the people below were bright, and Han Qi also looked at the emperor in a daze. He didn't expect that the crimes he committed would be exposed so lightly. He was the vanguard to kill the enemy.Both his parents and younger sister were killed by soldiers from the Dayue Kingdom, and he lives to kill the enemy!
Baili Junyi continued to speak: "Ye Yi, distribute the food I brought, and let the soldiers have a full meal first. Han Qi, free up your tent, I will rest in the army tonight."

"Your Majesty, the conditions in this army are difficult, you..."

"Needless to say, the soldiers can bear the charge, how can I not bear it?" After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the camp.

Han Qi wiped his face with his hand, and quickly got up to tidy up his tent: Your Majesty is really not an ordinary person!
Baili Junyi started to make arrangements here, and Shen Ninghua did not relax in the capital.

After Bizhu counted out the items in the treasury, a large amount of silver was generally distributed.Many gentry grain merchants are sensible, knowing that at this time the national calamity should not be distributed. If the royal family is willing to buy it, they keep enough for themselves and sell the rest to the royal family.

However, there were also some who were unwilling, so Shen Ninghua asked people to check one by one. Generally, such people had some illegal activities behind their backs, and in the end they directly ransacked their homes and sent them to prison. If you actually sell the grain, although the price is a bit high, you still have money after earning a good reputation.

Shen Ninghua listened carefully to the report from the officials below: "Empress, the price of food has risen sharply, the people are in panic, and even some bad rumors have spread."

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes, and dark lights flashed in her eyes: "Bad rumors?"

"Yes, someone spread the conditions proposed by the Great Viet Kingdom before, and many people didn't understand the reason, so they thought that they should..."

"Should the palace be abolished?"

"Ma'am, please calm down."

Shen Ninghua sneered: "If a war can be quelled by abolishing this palace's position, even if this palace sacrifices its life, it will not let the people suffer from the flames of war. However, the war between the two countries consumes so much manpower and material resources, and so much blood flows. Blood, is something that can be solved by abolishing the empress?"

"Yes, your mother is right."

"Let's go back first. Tomorrow morning, I have some things to do in the palace. Let Prince De, the third and fourth princes also come to attend."

"Yes, empress." The third prince Baili Jinyu and the fourth prince Baili Jinjing...they have never been to court since the death of the first emperor. Now that the empress has asked them to come, it seems that there is something wrong. Something's wrong, it's better to be careful when going to court tomorrow.

When Shen Ninghua returned to the apse, she couldn't help but sat on her seat in a daze.Hong Ling stepped forward to help her pinch her shoulders to relieve her fatigue from reading the memorial for many days: "Your Majesty, you should also pay attention to your body. After all, your body was seriously damaged before, and you haven't fully recovered yet."

Shen Ninghua closed her eyes: "One thing after another, there is no time for me to rest. Where are the children?"

"The third prince has already fallen asleep, and the eldest prince and princess are watching."

"Well, how is the investigation of the fourth prince's matter?"

"Although it is confirmed that he contacted the officials, the evidence is not conclusive, and the rumors have also been found on the fourth prince, but there is no conclusive evidence."

Shen Ninghua opened her eyes, and a cold look flashed across her face: "In special times, special means are needed. It doesn't matter if there is no evidence."

"Yes, the country is in dire straits, and the Fourth Prince is still only concerned about fighting for power and profit. It is really inappropriate to spread some rumors to sway the people at this time."

Shen Ninghua took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger in her heart: "How about the emperor?"

"Reporting to your mother, there is no news yet."

"Isn't there also a grain merchant's warehouse in the northwest? Send a message to Bi Zhu to ask her to find a way to send the grain stored by the northwest grain merchant to Suicheng first, and then slowly mobilize the grain to the northwest. This will save time and avoid The emperor has no food in his hands and is in a predicament. Remember, we must send more troops, and we must not let the food and grass cause accidents."

"Yes, ma'am."

When Hong Ling went down, Shen Ninghua couldn't help but walked to the window and looked out of the bleak window: "In the most luxurious palace, there is a bleak scene, let alone the bitter cold place in the northwest. Jun Yi, you want thousands of dollars?" The treasure is."

In the garrison tent of Suicheng, Baili Junyi looked at the map of the army's defense, his face was full of solemnity: "My prediction was wrong. The situation of the cities in the northwest is estimated to be similar to that of Suicheng. The food and grass in each city are extremely tight. If you can't Solve it as soon as possible, and it won't be long before many cities will be destroyed without attack, and when the time comes...how can there be great security?"

Ye Yidao: "Your Majesty, the matter may not be so serious..."

"No, the matter will only get more serious. There can't be any chances at this time. Ye Yi, lighten up your troops as soon as possible. I need to win a battle and suppress the arrogance of Da Viet's overwhelming power!"

"Your Majesty, once there is a war, our food and grass will only last for seven days. If within seven days..."

Baili Junyi lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the map: "You don't need to worry about this matter, I have my own way."

"Yes."

When Ye Yi went out, Baili Junyi couldn't help but took out an exquisite purse from his bosom, which was embroidered for him by Shen Ninghua himself, and he couldn't bear to hang it on his waist, so he kept it in his bosom: "Ninghua... …I miss you so much……"
