my wife is mulan

In the eyes of the emperor, whether the generals can be used or reused, military command ability is secondary, and loyalty is the most important. An obedient general can be reused even if he is mediocre, as long as he is obedient; , Even generals who are rebellious and often rely on their own merits and outstanding military talents cannot be used, and emperors dare not use such people!

Zhao Junsheng yawned and came to the bedroom stretching his waist. Hua Mulan saw him come back and greeted him, took off his coat, and asked, "What did you and the boss talk about in the imperial study? We talked for so long?"

Zhao Junsheng took the fresh milk handed by a maid next to him and drank it in one gulp, and asked: "Someone in the court impeached the family members and ordered Bailan to rob the Tuyuhun people of their rations, and let those [-] Tuyuhun people starve to death, do you know this?" ?"

Hua Mulan said: "I know, Wei Juan must have his own ideas for what he did. If he is said to be cruel, then why did he just order the robbing of food? Wouldn't it be easier to just order the massacre?"

Zhao Junsheng handed the cup to the palace lady, "You're right on point, but your boss doesn't think so, he thinks the actions of his family members are unjust! If his compassion is placed on a county magistrate or eunuch , maybe he will do very well, but he is the crown prince, he is the person who will be the emperor in the future, if someone in the court takes advantage of this, he will easily be swayed by some people with bad intentions without knowing it! I wonder if I chose the wrong teacher for him!"

Hua Mulan also frowned, "Listen to you, Dong'er's situation is indeed a bad omen, do you have any solution?"

Zhao Junsheng said: "His character is too weak and kind, and lacks some ruthlessness and rationality. This may be related to his experience. He has been living in the palace since he was born and grew up. He has a good life. He has no experience. Having lived through the hardships of the people, not knowing the dangers and beauty of the world, let alone the dangers and schemes of the officialdom, he still lacks experience!"

Hua Mulan asked worriedly, "You don't mean to send him out again, do you?"

"With this idea, when my son grows up, we must always let him fly high, let him experience wind and rain and rainbows, if he has been living under our wings, he will never grow up!"

Hua Mulan was silent for a while, she didn't object anymore, she knew that her husband was right, letting the eldest son go out to practice is not only good for him, but also responsible for Dagan Jiangshan Sheji.

"Where do you want to send him?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, even if I want to send him out to work, I have to wait until next year!"

In the next period of time, people in the court continued to impeach the courtiers. Zhao Junsheng suppressed all these impeachment memorials and kept them unpublished. When the courtiers saw the letter, there was still no news, and they knew that the emperor was protecting the courtiers. , Gradually died down.

In November, the temperature dropped significantly. In view of the fact that the situation in the Qingtang area had stabilized, Zhao Junsheng issued an edict ordering the troops of the Wei army and Chang Kun as the governor of the West Sea. He commanded 1 troops to guard the Qingtang area. They were brought back to Chang'an by Wei's family. The governor's office is located in Fuqi City, while the Xihai County's office is located in Longqi City.

Chinese New Year is the first month of the 17th year of the Qian State. Zhao Junsheng issued an edict to promulgate the holidays of the State of Qian. All have holidays to rest and take a bath. The imperial government and local governments must arrange officials on duty during these holidays. If private shops, commercial firms, and landlords want to let employees continue to work on holidays, they must pay three times the wages. All localities must strictly implement it and not violate it.

After the decree was issued, only the merchants looked helpless and bitter. Because of this decree, they had to pay a lot of wages to the employees every year, but the officials and the people were all happy, saying that the sage was benevolent and sympathetic to the people.

On the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, all over the country celebrated the Lantern Festival with festive lanterns all night long, and many couples privately decided on this night for life.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Junsheng sent someone to proclaim Prince Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong soon came to the Hall of Qinzheng to have an audience, "I pay my respects to my father!"

"Be flat!"

"Thank you, Father!"

Zhao Junsheng put down the ink pen, closed the memorial, and beckoned to Zhao Dong for him to come forward.

"Son, since your father arrived in Chang'an last year, you and Pei Jin have been in charge of the expansion of Chang'an City. How do you feel about your knowledge and talents?"

Zhao Dong said modestly: "I still have a lot of shortcomings, and I still need to learn!"

"It seems that you are aware of this yourself. The emperor intends to let you go out to practice. What do you think?"

Zhao Dong bowed: "Everything is subject to the will of the father!"

Zhao Junsheng pondered for a while, "Since you are let out, let's go farther and go to our hometown, Suiyang! But this time, you are not asked to be an official, you can only start as an official, and you can't ask for help. Anyone reveal the identity of your prince!"

"promise!"

Zhao Junsheng picked up an official order from the imperial case and handed it to Zhao Dong: "Father has already arranged a new identity for you. You go to the county government of Suiyang County to be the history of household orders. An orderly official, but also an official among small officials! This official can be promoted to an official orderly official of the court if he does well. I hope you can experience more sufferings, good and evil in the world outside! This time you can only bring a small official to serve you. Let me go, and no one else is allowed to take it with you! As for your position in the court, I will find someone to replace you, and I will declare to the outside world that I have ordered you to serve in the army, and conceal your whereabouts!"

"promise!"

"Wait!" Zhao Junsheng called him again, "You must be more careful when you go out. Our Zhao family builds our country with martial arts. If the descendants neglect martial arts, they will have no face to see their ancestors in the future!"

"Father, don't worry, my son understands!"

Both Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan were reluctant to send their son out, but Zhao Dong is not too young, and he has practiced martial arts well, and he and Hua Mulan are not too worried about him if they send another guard with high martial arts skills to protect him secretly. personal safety.

On the third day after sending Zhao Dong away, Hua Mulan rushed to the Hall of Qinzheng angrily and shouted to Zhao Junsheng: "Your surname is Zhao, look at your good deeds, your second child has disappeared again, two days away Did not go back to the palace!"

Zhao Junsheng looked up at Hua Mulan, and continued to review the memorial, "Don't be taken by surprise, the children are grown up, let them go if they want to go out, you can keep her people, but you can't keep her heart! "

"Isn't it because you promised to let her find her husband's family by herself, and now she doesn't come home all day long, how decent is a daughter's family?"

Zhao Junsheng put down his pen and raised his head and said: "If it wasn't for the in-laws you found for her, she didn't like any of them, could I let her go out and look for them by herself? My daughter is getting old, and if she doesn't find her in-laws, she will become an old girl! If you can be more reliable, you will not only look at the man’s family background. No matter how good the family background is, if the son-in-law is useless and not liked by your daughter, what’s the use? You are not doing it for her good, but for harming her! As the saying goes, men are afraid If she enters the wrong line of work, she is afraid of marrying the wrong man! Let her choose by herself, and we can rest assured that we can choose the one she likes, and even if she regrets it later, she can't blame us!"

"Hmph, just get used to her!" Hua Mulan left angrily.

Zhao Junsheng sighed, shook his head, and continued to review the memorial.

At this time, the eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Li Ji, Minister of Honglu Temple, please see me!"

"Xuan!"

Li Ji walked in quickly with an official robe and bowed to Zhao Junsheng: "My minister, Li Ji, pays homage to Your Majesty!"

"Free gift!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng put down his pen, stood up and walked out from behind the case: "Why are you here to see me?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, ever since I wiped out Tuyuhun and the Dangxiang people in the Xihai area, our reputation has spread on the plateau, and the Fuguo, Jialiangyi, and Boyuanyi who live on the plateau have all sent here one after another. The envoys, even the envoys sent by the Nvguo deep in the western plateau, have all entered the territory of Dagan. We have also arrived at Stump City!"

"Also, the countries in the Western Regions have also sent envoys one after another, and they are all entering our Dagan territory now!"

"Oh?" Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and ordered: "Honglu Temple will do a good job of reception, and arrange them to live in the posthouse area in a unified way, and strengthen management!"

"promise!"

Chapter 799 Ten Thousand Kingdoms Come to Korea (1)

At the court meeting on the first day of February, She Gaoxiu, the right servant in charge of military affairs, stood up and raised a question at the court meeting.

"Your Majesty, the minister Gaoxiu has something to announce!"

"allow!"

Gao Xiu clasped his fists and said: "Since our army destroyed Beiliang and captured Hexi, the remnants of Juqu Wuyu from Beiliang fled to Gaochang and established Gaochang Beiliang! Planning to recapture Gaochang, trying to occupy the Western Regions and cut off our Silk Road. If I want to ensure the safety of the Silk Road, I must manage the Western Regions. Beiliang Gaochang is a force that cannot be bypassed. This shows that we will be in the future for a long time We want to compete with the Rouran people for the Western Regions! I suggest strengthening the military strength of the Hexi side, setting up the base camp for operating the Western Regions near Dunhuang to command, and sending frontier agencies to go deep into the hinterland of the Western Regions to support the desert countries that are inclined to our cause, and to attack those who deviate from our cause. It’s like the Han Dynasty established the Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions in the Western Regions!"

After Zhao Junsheng listened to it, he said to the ministers: "As for Gao Xiu's suggestion, all ministers will discuss it!"

Some ministers advocated that the war against Tuyuhun and the Dangxiang people had just been fought, so that the soldiers and horses should be rested and the people should recuperate. After all, wars are fought for money and food, and these money and food need to be paid by the people, and a lot of strong labor is also needed for logistics. Transportation work, so that they can not produce, which has a great impact on agricultural production.

There are also ministers who think that there is no need to open up the Silk Road, and the money for big work is enough, so why bother to earn money from the barbarians in the West?The barbarians in the West don't have any good things. The Western Regions are full of sand, and there is no output or valuable things. It is really not worth the loss to spend too much money and soldiers' lives to run the Western Regions.

For this kind of person, Zhao Junsheng can only use a short-sighted comment.

On this matter, the Qian Kingdom court held a total of two court meetings, and it took half a month to decide to adopt Gao Xiu's suggestion - to manage the Western Regions, even if it caused another war with the Rouran people.

Zhao Junsheng decided to set up the Protectorate of the Western Regions in Dunhuang, and sent the Chief of the Western Regions to stay in Shanshan. The Chief of the Western Regions was a subordinate of the Protector of the Western Regions. For the chief historian of the Western Regions, Zhao Junsheng still needs to consider the personnel of the governor and chief historian of the Western Regions.
