The Leisurely Countryside of the Farmer’s Daughter-in-law - Chapter 824
Chapter 824 Face Saint
He has lived for decades and knows what his wife loves to say.
However, some people don’t want her to get what they want, so they just want to sing against him. Aunt Tan lowered her head expressionlessly, but when she heard this, she curled her lips in disdain and looked up at Uncle Tan: “But I heard that these leaders General, there will be a lot of spoils after each battle, and these spoils will be rewarded in order of position merit.”
On the contrary, it is the soldiers’ salaries. Not only are the soldiers at the border pass useless, but even the salaries of the generals can be paid out in time.
Under such circumstances, if the soldiers at the border did not lose their will to fight, it was due to General Qin’s good leadership.
Second Uncle Tan gave her a dark look while no one was paying attention, and then said to the old lady in a gentle voice: “The spoils of war are not enough for him to squander. Marrying a wife who has no power and power is his big shortcoming, and the palace is worth a lot of money.” We almost evacuated them, and I guess their family is having a hard time.”
The old lady was attracted by the loot, and confirmed again: “Is there really a loot?”
Uncle Tan nodded: “Well, there is an unwritten rule that 30% of the spoils captured by soldiers in battle can be distributed freely.”
What they said was 30%, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away. How much is actually seized is not decided by the top leader and decision-maker of the army!
The old lady got the answer she wanted, so she didn’t talk about the family in the palace, but took her children and grandchildren to accompany her for breakfast.
After breakfast, when everyone was about to leave, the old lady spoke to Second Aunt Tan, “You can write a post over there tomorrow, and say that I haven’t seen the prince for a long time, and I’m very worried about inviting him.” Bringing his wife and children across the house and rushing through the door.”
Second Aunt Tan responded respectfully, with contempt in her heart, but she nodded her head without showing any signs on her face: “I will send someone over later, a country woman believes that after receiving your post, she will prepare gifts carefully in the past two days , happily come over to pay your respects.”
Let’s talk about Prince Mu Mansion again, Tan Anjun waited until the sun was high and finished his breakfast with his wife and children before taking a leisurely carriage into the palace.
Entering the palace, Emperor Changxing had just finished his morning court at this time, and had just returned to Qinzheng Hall before his buttocks were hot, so he listened to the report from the attendant that Prince Mu begged to see him.
In the hall, there are also Yu Zizhen, the eldest son of the Marquis of Tai’an, and several advisers who used to hide in the residence.
Emperor Changxing glanced at them, and said with a smile: “He just came back yesterday, and he came here so impatiently to pay his respects, is he thinking of going to Fengtu to settle down as soon as possible?”
Jiang Shidu stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Your Majesty is wise, I think it’s thanks to His Majesty for increasing the fiefdom for him.”
This former Qiandi followed Emperor Changxing, Mr. Jiang, who was born as a counselor, from a down-and-out man who failed in the examinations repeatedly, to now he soared to become Emperor Changxing’s fourth-rank attendant, as a confidant who often accompanied the emperor Of course he knows what he likes to hear the most.
Because he has always believed in trying to figure out the emperor’s mind, it can be said that there is no disadvantage in the officialdom, and the official fortune is prosperous.
Emperor Changxing laughed: “Go and invite him in.”
The attendant retreated in response.
Tan Anjun came in without looking sideways, saluted the emperor without haste, and just when his knees were bent, he heard the voice of Emperor Changxing who was sitting above him: “Mu Wang is free, you have worked hard for the past few days, come here People give seats.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Tan Anjun thanked him and stood up straight. As he expected, their emperor, who was full of benevolence and morality, liked to put on airs the most.
Now he has to coax him to go to Liangzhou Mansion, how can he care about such a trivial matter with him?
Several people in the hall saluted Tan Anjun.
Waiting for Tan Anjun to sit down and his attendant to serve hot tea, Emperor Changxing asked: “Mu Wang, you have been staying on the border of the Northland for many years, what is the current situation in the Northland?”
Although Yu Zizhen was sent there last year, no one knows how much he weighs like the emperor. He wants to hear from Tan Anjun, who knows the situation in Beidi, and his opinion on Beidi .
Tan Anjun raised his head and looked at Emperor Changxing. Seeing his clear eyes, he knew that he really wanted to know the situation in Beidi.
He pondered for a while, “The northern land was hit by white disasters last winter, I think His Majesty already knew about this?”
“Well, I heard Yu Aiqing talk about it.” Emperor Changxing nodded, and what Yu Shizi said was too one-sided.
Tan Anjun: “The barbarians have been fighting among themselves for many years, and their power is not as good as before. In addition, we raided several of their tribes last year, which led to their lack of large-scale operations this year. It is now almost winter, and the border is defended for one day. Do not slack off.”
“King Mu is right.” Jiang Shidu squinted at Yu Zizhen, looked at Tan Anjun, and asked his own question: “But the power of the barbarians has long since collapsed, are you sure that the barbarians will make a comeback this year, instead of hiding in the grasslands?” What about the hidden power in the depths?”
“In the face of survival, all difficulties are not difficulties.” Tan Anjun glanced at him, and for the sake of the people of Beidi, he answered his question seriously: “Besides, this year, Beidi is supported by my concubine Wang Aifei and the county magistrate Mrs. Cheng.” Under the vigorous promotion of the Chinese government, potatoes and sweet potatoes have been planted everywhere, and this year’s harvest can be regarded as good weather, and the common people have a bumper harvest. Is it possible that we should not strengthen our defenses to prevent the barbarians from seizing grain? Displaced once? Precautions are never burned. Could it be that Jiang Shi can’t read it? Didn’t the teacher teach it?
If such a big pie is placed there, how can the barbarians be indifferent? “
A series of questions left Jiang Shidu speechless, his face flushed red, should he say that there is no need to strengthen the border defense?
He believes that as long as these words come out of his mouth today, they will spread throughout the capital tomorrow, and after a while, Jiang Shidu will be “famous all over the world”!
At that time, he will be a silverfish in the court, and scholars all over the world will criticize him and make him notorious, and the historian will definitely leave him a “heavy ink” in the history books!
These consequences would be unimaginable, even thinking about it would make him tremble all over, as if he was in an ice cave.
His goal in life is to become a generation of virtuous ministers in the history books! You must never touch things that destroy your reputation!
When Emperor Changxing heard that potatoes and sweet potatoes were popularized in the North, he laughed: “When I receive the memorial from the North at the end of the year and confirm this, I will definitely reward Princess Mu and County Magistrate Cheng for their contribution to the economic development of the North.” made an indelible contribution.”
Emperor Changxing’s sentence made Jiang Shi read and understand.
Tan Anjun said modestly: “As the princess of the Daying Dynasty, she is obliged to do some practical things for the people, and she should not be rewarded by Your Majesty.”
Hearing this, Emperor Changxing really felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and began to care about Tan Anjun’s journey: “King Mu is going to Liangzhou Mansion. The journey is far away, so please take care of yourself. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. Said, if I can help you solve it, I will definitely solve it for you.”
Make up yesterday’s tasks
