my wife is mulan

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After a while, Wei Jing walked in to pay respects: "My son pays homage to my father!"

"Okay!" Zhao Junsheng nodded and said to Lu Shuang, "Lu Shuang, this is my adopted son, named Wei Jing. He has learned martial arts from me for several years. He is 15 years old this year, one year younger than you. The king wants you two to compete, one is to test your martial arts skills, and the other is to see how far Wei Jing's martial arts skills are. If you win, this king will grant you official positions and money. I don't know what you want ?”

Lu Shuang clasped his fists and agreed: "The king has orders, how dare you disobey me, I don't know if the two of us will fight on horseback or on foot, how far will we fight?"

"After all, this is not a battle on the battlefield. You can't fight with your life. The two of you will go as far as you can. Since you are more skilled in martial arts, it is naturally a test riding battle!"

After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he got up and went to the school grounds, followed by everyone.

When they arrived at the school grounds, someone had already prepared the horses and harnesses. Lu Shuang and Wei Jing each chose a horse, put on the harnesses, took their weapons, turned on the horses and clasped fists together: "Please!"

"Kill—" the two shouted loudly, and rushed towards each other.

"Dangdang" the two men crossed each other with two moves, and then they turned around and continued to fight.

The sound of shouting and killing from the two of them sounded on the field.

Zhao Junsheng asked Lu Gui while watching: "General Lu, who do you think can win between the two?"

Lu Gui smiled and said: "The general has some experience in bows and arrows. Martial arts is not what the general is good at, and the general cannot see it!"

Zhao Junsheng pointed at Lu Gui and smiled, and said, "Your son is talented in martial arts, and my adopted son is not bad, but after all, the time for practicing martial arts is too short!"

Zhao Junsheng could see that Lu Shuang's martial arts would definitely be able to become a general in the future after honing his martial arts, so he arranged this competition, with the intention of supporting him.

These two boys fought for more than half an hour, after all, their bodies were not fully grown, so their strength could not last long, so they were a little exhausted after fighting for so long.

Zhao Junsheng shouted: "Okay, stop!"

The two stopped fighting, and both had a sense of sympathy for each other.

Zhao Junsheng said to the two: "You have almost learned martial arts, but you still need to sharpen them. From today on, Lu Shuang and Wei Jing will be the personal bodyguards of this king!"

The two quickly agreed: "Yes!"

Zhao Junsheng asked Lu Gui, "General Lu, do you have any objections?"

Lu Gui quickly said: "This is because the king thinks highly of dogs, and the general will never know!"

"Okay, that's it for now!"

On February 25, Zhao Junsheng led the army to return to Youzhou, passing through Xuzhou, Hulu, and Jeju all the way north. When he arrived at Yecheng in Xiangzhou, Yecheng was attacked by Zhang Xing. Junsheng ordered him to be buried generously.

Just as they were about to order to continue their march to the north, news came from Youzhou that several aristocratic families had united to rebel, but Hua Mulan had already made arrangements to wipe them all out.

Chapter 651 Persuade to surrender

On the tenth day of March, Zhao Junsheng led his army back to Ji County.

It has been five days since the processing of captives, rewarding meritorious soldiers, paying compensation to fallen soldiers, awarding meritorious generals and schools, listening to Pei Jin, Liang Ji and others' reports on government affairs in various places in the past few months, and so on.

That evening, Zhao Junsheng returned to the backyard after handling the military and political affairs in the front yard of the palace. Hua Mulan walked over with a uniform and said, "Change clothes, wash up and have dinner!"

"Okay!" Zhao Junsheng opened his arms, and asked Zhao Junsheng to take off his royal robe and put on ordinary clothes. He washed his hands in the basin brought by the maid, and then walked to the table with Hua Mulan and sat down. .

Zhao Junsheng watched his son Zhao Dong come over accompanied by his maid and asked, "Son, what are you doing today?"

Zhao Dong said "Play!"

"What are you playing?" Hua Mulan scolded her son, and said to Zhao Junsheng, "Your son is getting more and more skinny, and he used the stationery in your room as a toy when no one was paying attention. He tore it up and spread it on the ground, and the two paintings you like were painted horribly by him, the inkstone was also broken by him playing on the ground, and he even painted his own little face with a pen Be a clown!"

Zhao Junsheng was not angry after hearing this, which child is not like this?Which child is not naughty, most of the children who are not naughty are sick, and adults will worry about it at that time.

Zhao Junsheng touched his son's head and asked, "Son, how old are you this year?"

"Two years old!" Zhao Dong replied with his eyes flickering a few times.

"Well, I'm already two years old, here's for you to play!" Zhao Junsheng took out a carved wooden horse and handed it over like a trick. This wooden horse was carved in his spare time. new.

His son Zhao Dong took it and was very happy to play with it, and couldn't put it down.

After the son played for a while, the food was already on the table. Zhao Junsheng said, "Son, it's time for dinner. You put down the toys first, and then play after eating. You can't play during the meal. Be obedient, and the king will make you another one tomorrow." Toy!"

"Okay!" Zhao Dong reluctantly put the toy wooden horse beside him. He is only two years old, and his language function has not yet fully developed, so he can only speak some simple words.

Before going to bed, Hua Mulan came over and saw Zhao Junsheng sitting at the table carving something with a knife, and asked, "What is this for?"

Zhao Junsheng said without raising his head, "Make a toy. If you promise to make another toy for him tomorrow, you must do what you say!"

A smile appeared on Hua Mulan's face, she turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, remembering something and asked, "By the way, what do you plan to do with those rebellious noble families?"

Zhao Junsheng couldn't help looking up at Hua Mulan, "I hear what you mean, what do you think about this matter?"

Hua Mulan pondered for a while, and said, "I think it's best to punish only a few leaders severely, and the other subordinates should be dealt with lightly. As for their family members, it's better not to pursue them!"

Zhao Junsheng continued to cut wood with a knife, "Since ancient times, the crime of rebellion has been punishing the nine clans. This is something that no ruler can tolerate. How do you say that only the leaders are punished, and other subordinates and their families are given lighter punishments?" What about hair loss?"

Hua Mulan said, "I think we can't give outsiders the impression that Youzhou can't tolerate wealthy families. Most of the world's status, talent, learning, and wisdom are in the hands of the nobles. If Youzhou wants to grow and grow, it is impossible to do without these things." No, if we want to use the gentry, we only need to prevent them from growing up, and we don't need to drive them all out!"

"In the past few years, although you have vigorously supported poor families in Youzhou and promoted capable subordinates to officials, at least half of the officials in various places under my Youzhou rule are from the gentry. Youzhou needs to be united, not separated!"

"In this matter, if you only punish the chief villain, and lightly punish the other subordinates and their families, you will not only have the power of deterrence, but also appear magnanimous, and through this incident, you will also declare to the world In spite of your attitude, we are not trying to exterminate the noble families. As long as they abide by the law, they will naturally live in peace.

Controlling the military and government without the promotion of officials, will naturally be mercilessly hit! "

Zhao Junsheng fell into deep thought after hearing Hua Mulan's words, "What you said is not unreasonable, this matter... I will consider it!"

Early the next morning, Zhao Junsheng ordered the beheading of several culprits who launched the rebellion. Some of the other followers were sentenced to life in prison, and some were sentenced to ten years. Their families were not affected.

The outside world has different opinions on Zhao Junsheng's handling, even within Youzhou, but this does not affect Zhao Junsheng's attitude on this matter.

After finishing these things, Zhao Junsheng finally had time to meet the Southern Dynasty general Gao Jinzhi, who was the most important general of the Southern Dynasty captured by the Gan army so far.

Zhao Junsheng brought a few soldiers and some daily necessities to the place where Gao Jinzhi was resettled. This is a house in a busy city, but it is quiet in a busy city.

The government did not lock Gao Jinzhi into a captive camp or prison, but chose to shelter him here, using the method of confinement, only deploying some guards inside and outside the yard, and not allowing him to go out. Other prisoners are not like him. treatment.

When Zhao Junsheng arrived, Gao Jinzhi was practicing boxing, and his personal guard Lu Shuang was about to scold Gao Jinzhi and remind Gao Jinzhi, but Zhao Junsheng waved to him, and then stood aside and waited.

After a long time, Gao Jinzhi finished his boxing practice, picked up a towel to wipe off his sweat, and came over to salute with fists in his hands, "Gao Jinzhi has seen Qian Wang!"

Zhao Junsheng said, "I brought some daily necessities for General Gao, I hope the general can get used to it!"

"Thank you, General. In fact, Gao Mou doesn't lack anything here. You can just do whatever you want!"
