Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Yunzhou City

Zhenbei King Hongxuan brought the Qilin Guards with him.

Second Field Army Commander Jiang Yichen, Deputy Commander Xu Jiamu

The Third Field Army was led by He Zhili, commander of the army, and Wen Jinglan, deputy commander of the army.

The Fifth Field Army Commander An Jingyi and Deputy Commander Qu Ruiyuan

The Prime Minister's Mansion, the largest and most luxurious mansion in Yunzhou City, has been surrounded by heavy troops.

At this time, the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was closed, and King Hongxuan of Zhenbei gave an order.

"Break the door open!"

Three hundred Qilin Guards smashed open the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion,

Li Meihua was terrified and walked out of the inner courtyard

She didn't know what had happened yet. She had been enjoying herself with her male lover in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The news that the Yunzhou rebels were defeated and her father Li Haicheng was imprisoned had not yet reached her ears.

Although she is the daughter of the prime minister now, Li Meihua knows that she will become the eldest princess of the new dynasty in the future.

"Who are you? This is the Prime Minister's residence, and I am the Prime Minister."

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at the woman who was wearing heavy makeup, disheveled clothes and had a very mediocre appearance.

"Count all the property and food in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Drive everyone out, and kill anyone who resists!"

When Hongxuan was at the Chisha battlefield in Ezhou, he learned from the surrendered soldiers that the Prime Minister's Mansion had seized all the food and property in the entire Yunzhou County.

Li Meihua looked at Zhenbei King Hongxuan, who was wearing the dragon emperor robe, and scolded him.

"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you break into the Prime Minister's Mansion? My father is the Prime Minister and I am the Prime Minister's daughter. I will ask my father to kill you."

Qilin Guard stepped forward and grabbed Li Meihua directly.

"The Yunzhou rebels have been destroyed, and you, the rebel Li Haicheng, have been thrown into prison and await your fate!"

After hearing this information, Li Meihua showed an unprecedented look of fear.

"No, it's impossible. My father is the prime minister and will be the emperor in the future. How could he be arrested? No!"

There is no need for Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan to say anything more.

Qilin Guards directly dragged Li Meihua, the daughter of the rebel prime minister Li Haichen, out of the Zhenbei Palace.

The entire Prime Minister's Mansion covers an area of ​​nearly fifty acres.

Jiang Yichen, commander of the Second Field Army, dispatched soldiers from the First Division to guard outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, completely controlling the entire city.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, after being processed by 300 Qilin Guards, except for the female relatives,

All those who dared to resist were killed.

Hongxuan looked inside the Prime Minister's Mansion and saw piles of granaries everywhere.

He said to the commanders and deputy commanders of the three field armies

"Each of our army commanders will send a division of troops. Please take all the food and silver in the mansion!"

The commanders and deputy commanders of the three field armies took the order and left.

After two hours of inventory.

All the grain and silver in the Prime Minister's Mansion have been counted.

The Qilin Guards gathered all the supplies and reported to Zhenbei King Hongxuan:

"Reporting to the King of Zhenbei! The total amount of grain and silver is 4.6 million dan, and the total amount of silver is 1.3 million liang."

When Hongxuan heard the number of Qilin Guards reported, his eyes turned cold:

"Humph! Li Haicheng really deserves to die. All these grains and silver are the hard-earned money of the people in the ten counties of Yunzhou.

"So much food and silver! The Yunzhou rebels are exploiting them to death! How can the people of Yunzhou survive? It would be unjust if they didn't rebel."

Since the beginning of the rebellion, the rebel leader Li Haicheng has never thought about giving the people of Yunzhou a chance to live.

He wished that the people of Yunzhou would be as chaotic as possible.

Nowadays, most of the food of the people in Yunzhou has been confiscated by the army sent by Li Haicheng.

This is the root cause of the new round of riots in Yunzhou, and Li Haicheng had already made preparations.

After all, the Yunzhou rebels did not participate in the food looting operation.

The ones who actually plundered the grain were the county magistrates of each county.

The people of Yunzhou will only blame the governors of various counties for their anger and resentment, and then the government and the people of Dafeng State.

The people of Yunzhou have sharp eyes and they only see everything they can see.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan raised the corner of his mouth. Of course, he was aware of this serious problem.

After counting all the food and silver.

King Zhenbei Hongxuan and his subordinates left the Prime Minister's residence and returned to the hall with a new plaque, the Yunzhou King Zhenbei Government.

Within the main hall.

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei sat high on the throne. He was not happy about the fact that he had seized the prime minister's mansion of the Yunzhou rebels and obtained 4.6 million dan of grain and 1.3 million dan of silver.

On the contrary, he knew very well that Li Haicheng would leave no way out for the people of Yunzhou, and that his extermination of grain and silver would surely cause the people of Yunzhou to have a stronger desire to rebel.

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei destroyed the 450,000 Yunzhou rebels led by Li Haicheng by force.

But the real goal is to win back the hearts of the people of Yunzhou and permanently consolidate the southern border.

It must never be suppressed by force.

He looked at the commanders and deputy commanders of the three field armies in the hall.

The commanders and deputy commanders of the three field armies all showed joy on their faces as they had just seized so much food and silver.

The rewards of this war were far greater than they had imagined.

So everyone showed joy.

Under the hall, the expressions of the three field army commanders and deputy commanders were all seen by Zhenbei King Hongxuan. Hongxuan said calmly:

"Jiang Yichen, Xu Jiamu, what feelings did you two commanders have after seeing the residence of the rebel leader, Prime Minister Li Haicheng?"

Jiang Yichen of the Second Field Army said:

"King of Zhenbei! We have gained a lot from the rebel Prime Minister Li Haicheng's residence!"

Deputy Army Commander Xu Jiamu said:

"Your Majesty! With so much food and silver, your army can continue to grow!"

King Zhenbei looked at the commander and deputy commander of the Third Field Army.

"He Zhili, Wen Jinglan, what do you two commanders think of this scene?"

He Zhili responded respectfully:

"Reporting to King Zhenbei, our army will not be short of food for a long time!"

Wen Jinglan also said respectfully:

"Reporting to King Zhenbei, with such a huge food supply, we can recruit more soldiers!"

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei's gaze fell on the Fifth Field Army commanders An Jingyi and Qu Ruiyuan.

Army commander An Jingyi responded respectfully:

"King Zhenbei, these grains should be transported to Xiangzhou and Ezhou as soon as possible."

Qu Ruiyuan responded respectfully:

"King of Zhenbei! I think it is not safe to store the grain in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Such a large amount of grain should be transported back to Ezhou City."

"The food is only safe if it is returned to Ezhou City!"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at the commander and deputy commander of the Grand Prince and said:

"Have you ever thought about where these 4.6 million dan of grain came from? Where did these 1.3 million taels of silver come from? If I, the King of Zhenbei, take these grains and silver for myself, what will be the consequences?"

"All this grain and silver came from the various county governors of Yunzhou, and they were the blood and sweat of the people that they plundered from their respective county governors!"

"The people of Yunzhou have run out of food to grow. The consequence is that all the people in Yunzhou will rebel. Food is the most important thing for people. If they have nothing to eat, what else can they do but rebel?"

The deputy commander of the Fifth Field Army, Qu Ruiyuan, looked at the Zhenbei King who was sitting high in the main seat and said:

"King of Zhenbei! Anyway, the rebels and bandits in Yunzhou have been a scourge for a long time. If the people of Yunzhou continue to rebel, the worst that can happen is that we gather an army and kill them all.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan snorted coldly:

“If we treat the people of Yunzhou in this way, not only will the officials force the people to rebel, but we will never be able to truly recover the land of Yunzhou, and the disaster in Southern Xinjiang will always exist.”
