The people of Beidi began to rebel.

"We are innocent. Why do you want to kill our people?"

The soldiers of Daning were also filled with righteous indignation.

"Why? Because of your cowardice. Our princess's maid was walking peacefully on the street. She had no grudge against you. Why did you humiliate her?"

"A bunch of rotten people who dare not take responsibility for their actions. If even one of you had the guts to admit what you did, we wouldn't have killed so many people. Some of these people made mistakes and dared not admit them, while others knew who the murderer was but protected them. They all deserve to be killed."

Facts have proven that if the victor wants to kill you, he can definitely find a hundred reasons.

As a result, more than 300 people were killed.

On the third day, someone finally admitted to being the murderer.

But the people of Daning are not so easy to bully.

They tied several murderers to pillars and tortured them to death one by one.

This time, the people of Beidi were completely silent.

Not even one person cried.

In the next few days, they arrested all the friends and family members of these murderers. Instead of killing them, they drove them directly to the desert north of the Beidi Kingdom.

Let them fend for themselves.

It happened that Wu Yue was returning with his troops. In his hand was the head of the king of Beidi, which was eventually hung on the city gate.

Wu Yue and his soldiers went around Beidi, beating drums and gongs and shouting.

"Beidi now belongs to Daning. If you don't want to become a citizen of Daning, the North Gate is open and you can leave at any time. If you don't leave, you will voluntarily become a citizen of Daning and must abide by Daning's laws and rules."

After Jiang Jiu's high-pressure policy, the Beidi people finally became obedient.

Although it is honest, this place still needs to be governed by a tough but quiet person, and there should be a garrison. Otherwise, if they are not careful, the people of Daning who moved here will still be bullied.

Jiang Jiu wrote a letter to Zhao Zhuoxi, asking him how to deal with the situation.

Unexpectedly, just as the letter was delivered, a letter from Zhao Zhuoxi to Jiang Jiu arrived.

Unlike Jiang Jiu who had artillery, Xiao Yimo only gave Zhao Zhuoxi two artillery pieces. Fortunately, there were plenty of shells and guns.

The Northern Qiang people have been attacking Daning in the northeast for two months.

Moreover, the garrison general in the northeast of Daning is not as powerful as Wu Yue.

By the time Zhao Zhuoxi arrived, two cities had already been captured.

Zhao Zhuoxi was braver than Jiang Jiu, and he was also the emperor. He led his army to drive away the Northern Qiang people first. There was the sea to the east, so the Northern Qiang people could only flee west.

Zhao Zhuoxi chased them all the way westward, and eventually reached the territory of the Northern Di people.

Jiang Jiu saw that Zhao Zhuoxi was about to drive the Northern Qiang people to Beidi, and immediately ordered Wu Yue to lead the troops to fight.

So, five days later, Wu Yue met the Northern Qiang people, attacked them from both sides, and almost wiped out the Northern Qiang people.

The remaining Northern Qiang people were not allowed to go back and were directly moved to the Beidi city to settle down.

In this way, three groups of people lived in the capital of Beidi: the original Beidi people, the soldiers of Daning, the exiled prisoners of Daning, and the homeless Beiqiang people chased by Zhao Zhuoxi.

The three of them maintained a strange balance in the capital of Beidi.

Without saying a word, Zhao Zhuoxi sent his maternal cousin, Qin Daxueshi, who was now the son of Qin's Prime Minister, to govern Beidi.

Chang Mingyuan was sent to govern the Northern Qiang.

The Northern Di and Northern Qiang were both treated as separate counties and allowed to govern themselves, while the military garrisons were directly managed by Emperor Zhao Zhuoxi.

Now, there are border garrisons in Mocheng in the northeast of Daning and Yuguan in the northwest. The Duke of Zhenguo’s men are guarding the south, and there are high mountains and the Western Frontier guarding the west.

Daning's territory has expanded a lot.

After the world is at peace, it is time for Daning to recuperate.

After Zhao Zhuoxi's troops joined forces with Jiang Jiu's army, they left the artillery, artillery shells, etc. with the garrison troops on the border.

Moreover, Jiang Jiu also handed over the method of making artillery shells to Wu Yue. The iron mines in Beidi were managed by the local government. With such mutual checks and balances, the number of artillery shells produced by Wu Yue was known.

The weather has turned cold. It's only August, but the first heavy snow of the year has fallen in the capital of Beidi.

Zhao Zhuoxi hurried to Jiang Jiu's bedroom.

"We're leaving tomorrow. It's cold here, you won't be able to stand it."

Jiang Jiu didn't expect that it would snow here in August.

"Can we go back by the Mid-Autumn Festival? I miss Aunt Qian so much."

Yiye Pianzhou's business has become 'six plus three', and her people have already gotten started.

Moreover, Zhao Zhuoxi also liberalized the salt-making and sugar-making skills from court officials to officials, and also liberalized the glass-making skills.

Six plus three makes you a real royal merchant.

The next day, when they came, they brought their troops, and the troops stayed.

After returning, he brought fewer people with him, including Zhao Zhuoxi's secret guards and the guards of Zhenguo Mansion.

The total number of people in the group was less than three thousand.

However, the journey was huge, and every time he arrived at a place, Zhao Zhuoxi would stay for a few days to see the local people's livelihood.

Jiang Jiu was originally still thinking about Nanny Qian.

Gradually conquered by the beautiful rivers.

Wherever they went, Zhao Zhuoxi took Lu Ming with him to handle official business.

Jiang Jiu took Yun Shu and Bai Yue to travel around.

From north to south, they had a lot of fun along the way, until Jiang Jiu and Zhao Zhuoxi finally returned to Ning'an Capital.

At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival in August has long passed, and the Double Ninth Festival has also passed.

It's already November.

It took Zhao Zhuoxi and Jiang Jiu three months to walk this short distance.

Coincidentally, the first snow of this winter also fell in Beijing at this time.

Outside the gate of the capital, all the ministers of the court were kneeling.

The Imperial Guards and the Emperor's ceremonial guards were also moved here.

Even the original owner Yao Qin's father came.

Zhao Zhuoxi lifted the curtain and got off the carriage. Before he could stand firmly, he turned around and carried Jiang Jiu down from the carriage.

No one dared to look and all knelt down.

"Your Majesty, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Zhao Zhuoxi put his hands behind his back and nodded slowly: "Everyone, get up. I'm tired from the journey. If you have anything to do, please come back tomorrow."

The world is peaceful and there is really no big problem for everyone.

The Hanlin Academy needs to report on next year's imperial examination, the Ministry of Personnel needs to report on personnel transfers in the past three months, and so on.

Zhao Zhuoxi only listened to matters concerning the Ministry of Industry.

The queen's bedroom has been repaired, but it will still take some time to furnish and decorate it.

Jiang Jiu waved his hand: "Don't worry, there are still two years left. You guys can take your time to repair it, and I will just go home and live there."

"No." Before Jiang Jiu finished speaking, Zhao Zhuoxi became unhappy.

Jiang Jiu finally recovered his memory, and the two of them were about to be together and love each other. Zhao Zhuoxi didn't want to leave Jiang Jiu for a moment.

"You'd better live in the Pepper Room. You're afraid of the cold in winter, and your hands and feet are cold. The Pepper Room is warm and has a ground cage, which is perfect for you."

Jiang Jiu looked speechlessly at the original owner's father, the current Duke of Zhenguo.

He had a smug smile on his face, while the little guy next to him pouted.

"Song'er, come here." Jiang Jiu waved.

Yao Song walked towards her helplessly.

"How's your schoolwork going these days?"

Jiang Jiu held his hand and followed Zhao Zhuoxi into the carriage back to Beijing.
