There is Always a System Trying To Bind Me - Chapter 108

    Although Yang Chenggong was reluctant in his heart, Caojia Village became empty after Chen Shoubei came, and the aunts who were cooking also returned to their homes.

    In a huge village, in the end, only Yang Chenggong was left.

    Yang Chenggong sighed and packed up and left here.

    In this world, it is estimated that there will be no newcomers here for a long time.

    On the other side, Chen Shoubei drove the convoy to send Xu Qingyang and his party to a city at the junction of the Yan Dynasty and the Xiongnu.

    Xu Qingyang, Cheng Xiao and several other children sat on the ox cart, looking at everything around them without any trace.

    Cheng Xiao’s face was equally calm, but the faces of the other children were a little worried.

    They knew that they had joined the Boy Scouts, so they would definitely go to the battlefield in the future, but they didn’t expect this day to come so quickly.

    Caojia Village is not too far from the city called Rongcheng on the border, so after the Chen garrison convoy drove for half a day, Xu Qingyang and his party arrived at their destination.

    Someone is already ready to come and take this group of children to the team that suffered losses before to replenish those lost.

    The general in heavy armor stood in front of this group of Boy Scouts, and the fate of this group of Boy Scouts was decided in an understatement.

     Those who are older and strong will be assigned to the front-line team, those who are younger and weaker are assigned to the fireheads and the like, and will not go directly to the front unless it is a last resort on the battlefield.

    When it was Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao’s turn, Chen Shoubei stepped forward and said a few words in the general’s ear, the general’s eyes fell on Xu Qingyang and the two for a moment, and then he directed at Chen The guard whispered something.

    Chen Shoubei showed a smile on his face, then walked to Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao, and took them out of here.

    Xu Qingyang waited until they were far away from the crowd before asking in a low voice, “Master guard, are you here?”

    Chen Shoubei turned his head with a sigh of relief on his face.

    “Just now, that is Mr. Yang, who is in charge of the distribution of our army in Rongcheng. He and you Yang Qianhu are relatives who have no five clothes. You Yang Qianhu asked me to bring him a message. Let him do you a favor and put you in the rear to practice for a few years, and then go to the battlefield when you are old enough.”

    It is!

    Xu Qingyang sighed, this Yang Chenggong cared a lot for him and Cheng Xiao.

    Although Xu Qingyang knew that the other party’s concern was because of his love for them, Xu Qingyang was very grateful for the other party’s efforts for her.

    Cheng Xiao naturally thought so.

    Xu Qingyang and Cheng Xiao were temporarily arranged by Chen guarding to serve as documents in the **** team behind the army.

    So they had a happy birthday.

    Before Xu Qingyang and the others came, the Yan Dynasty’s army just had a battle with the Huns, and now both armies are just recuperating.

    …

    At the same time, in the capital, on the Golden Palace.

    Xu Wencheng came out, “My minister, there is a memorial.”

    The emperor lowered his head and glanced at Xu Wencheng.

    “My dear, please speak.”

    “Back to the emperor, the minister received a letter from the frontier the day before yesterday, and Li Mu, the general of Songcheng, sued Wang Shilang for embezzling army salaries and using moldy grain as army ration. It was only in the battle that he was defeated by the hands of the Hungarians.”

    As soon as Xu Wencheng’s voice landed, the hall was silent.

    The eyes of some officials fell on Wang Quan, the minister of households.

    Wang Shilang in Xu Wencheng’s mouth is Wang Quan’s third son, this time the household official responsible for delivering supplies to Rongcheng.

    The corner of Wang Quan’s mouth twitched twice, some gloomy eyes fell on Xu Wencheng, and then he immediately came out of the queue and knelt on the ground.

    “Your Majesty, Wei Chen’s son would never do such a thing. Please also investigate your majesty.”

    Wang Quan spoke loudly.

    The emperor had doubts in his heart at first, but now seeing Wang Quan’s affirmative gesture, his heart could not help but be more inclined towards the other party.

    Especially even if someone really embezzled, why didn’t the general of Rongcheng pass the news to him, but to Xu Wencheng?

    This made the emperor’s heart suddenly tighten.

    He remembered what happened more than 20 years ago. At that time, it was also the current situation. The Huns were under pressure, but they were only a small garrison. Xu Wencheng was at the top of the army. They all died in the war with the Huns.

    As the top leader of the team, Xu Wencheng shouldered the responsibility of leading the team.

    No one would have imagined that such a low-level official from a peasant family would lead such a crippled army, to resist the Huns’ army like that, and even Xu Wencheng in that battle Still more than less.

    This incident spread as a legend in the Yan Dynasty all of a sudden, Xu Wencheng also rose all of a sudden, and was promoted to four ranks, and was named a mighty general.

    Xu Wencheng has always been very talented in leading troops and fighting.

    In the Yan Dynasty at that time, the real people only knew that there were mighty generals, not emperors.

    The emperor was only a prince at that time, the first emperor was a big heart, I don’t think there is anything wrong with Xu Wencheng’s reputation.

    The emperor has been dissatisfied with Xu Wencheng since then.

    Just a courtier, how can Xu Wencheng overshadow the emperor’s reputation?

    In the end, Xu Wencheng knew what he knew, took the initiative to hand over the military power in his hand, and only received the official position of the minister of household, so that he could live well for so many years.

    Thinking of what happened before, the emperor’s attitude towards Xu Wencheng couldn’t help but get colder.

    He said coldly, “Let the Prime Minister be responsible for this matter.”

    After the emperor finished speaking, Yu Xiang went out to receive the order.

    When other officials saw this, they couldn’t help but think about it. It seems that His Majesty is determined to protect the king’s servant.

    Although on the surface it seems that the emperor handed this matter over to Prime Minister Yu very fair and just.

    But they are not the girl who doesn’t know that the fourth prince is intending to go to Yu Xiang’s family.

    And the fourth prince is Wang Quan’s grandson, and that Wang Shilang is his uncle.

    If Yu Xiang really wanted to marry his daughter to the fourth prince, he would definitely not touch the king servant.

    Xu Wencheng is naturally aware of this, so when he returned home after the court, the anger on his face was obvious.

    Mrs. Xu didn’t know what happened, so she asked curiously, “What’s wrong, so angry?”

    Xu Wencheng is not the kind of man in the present era who insists that women in the back house should not be involved in politics.

    In addition, Mrs. Xu is not an ordinary woman, so Xu Wencheng is generally willing to tell Mrs. Xu about her troubles.

    Mrs. Xu sneered after hearing what happened when Xu Wencheng went to court.

    “Darkness!”

    Xu Wencheng was shocked when he heard the words, “Madam, speak carefully, why are you talking about your majesty.”

    Mrs. Xu rolled her eyes at him, “You are a fool and loyal, that person has always been afraid of you, even if you handed over your military power, he has never seen him feel at ease with you, and now the domestic situation is so urgent , but he still only cares about his own little thoughts, and ignores the lives of the 100,000 army in Rongcheng, what is it that is not a faint king?”

    “But he is the emperor, we are only courtiers.” Xu Wencheng murmured.

    Mrs. Xu felt even more amused.

    “I alone know of the co-authorship. Wasn’t the dragon chair under his seat was taken by the first ancestor from the last emperor of the previous dynasty? Wasn’t their Zhao family also a minister in the previous dynasty.”

    “In my opinion, he just knew where his throne came from, so he kept suppressing you generals, fearing that you would take his throne again.”

    Xu Wencheng doesn’t know what to say anymore. The education he has received since he was a child is that the monarch has to die, but he subconsciously knows that his wife is right, so now he himself I don’t even know what to think.

    He is someone who has really fought against the Xiongnu. He knows how brave and skilled the people living in the grasslands are, and also knows that the Yan Dynasty’s army is a little difficult to defeat them under normal circumstances. Not to mention under the circumstances of lack of food and clothing.

    The person he was angry with was not the embezzlement, but the servant of the king, the uncle of the fourth prince who nearly killed his daughter.

    But he was angry that he dared to embezzle the army’s salaries and provisions, which simply did not take the lives of those soldiers seriously.

    Seeing that Xu Wencheng was silent, Mrs. Xu felt a little unbearable, but thinking of what her son told her, she put this unbearableness behind her mind and continued.

    “Furthermore, in charge of the Ministry of War, it’s not that you don’t know that apart from the Xiongnu, there are also rebels in the south and northwest. It’s not that you don’t know why those people rebelled.”

    Xu Wencheng: “It’s because of corrupt officials.”

    “Corrupt officials? One person’s greed is because of his own moral problems, two people are a coincidence, but what about three or four? That is the emperor’s own vision has a problem, how to choose some Corrupt officials.”

    Xu Wencheng was speechless, because he also had such doubts in his heart.

    Mrs. Xu left with satisfaction when she saw Xu Wencheng’s appearance of being greatly shocked.

     As soon as she opened the door of the study, she saw Xu Yichen crawling at the door with a strange posture to eavesdrop.

    Seeing Madam Xu coming out, Xu Yichen clenched his fist in admiration for his mother.

    Then he and his mother quietly left, leaving his father alone in the study to reshape his worldview.

    In the next few days, under Xu Yichen’s suggestion, Mrs. Xu would often go to tell Xu Wencheng about the situation outside.

    For example, the peasants in some places couldn’t stand the harsh taxes, so they directly killed the county magistrates and rebelled. Another example is the Huns launched an attack, but the border guards have absolutely no materials, and the food is corrupt. As a result, I couldn’t get enough to eat, and I lost a city directly.

    For example, the results of Yu Xiang’s investigation came out. The person who embezzled the army’s salary was not Wang Shilang, but a small official under Wang Shilang, who had been sent by the emperor to the heavenly prison. , the corruption of military salaries has finally been “solved”.

    These things that happened in the capital were naturally written by Xu Yichen and sent to Xu Qingyang through a special channel.

    Xu Yichen also specially described how Xu Wencheng was hit hard. After reading these letters, Xu Qingyang knew that these things were enough to transform the father of this body.

    This has also achieved her purpose this time.
