I, the queen and the father, start with a deer as a horse

Chapter 147

Zhou Guo, Yanbei Mansion.

Stationed in the guards and tents in the outskirts.

Commander Zhao Xuanfeng and three deputy commanders sat around the fire, chatting while drinking wine.

"I heard that the Holy Majesty recently dismissed several prefects who opposed the new policy, and the prefect Liu of our Yanbei Prefecture is also among them."

"Hey, what's so good about this new policy? Your Majesty would rather offend the people of the world than go his own way."

"I heard that after the implementation of the New Deal, the land belonging to military households will also have to be re-cleared, and the land tax will be paid according to the method of equal tax on square land and divided into acres."

Commander Zhao Xuanfeng sighed, and said leisurely: "It's not bad, it's nothing more than paying more land taxes. The problem is that some people say that His Majesty wants to take back the land after the Qing Dynasty, and then redistribute it."

The other deputy commanders were all taken aback when they heard this. They looked at Zhao Xuanfeng and asked:

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhao Xuanfeng sighed, "It's just a rumor, that's all."

A burly deputy commander slapped the table and said angrily: "Every acre of my land was bought with real money! The emperor said he would take it back, so there is no such reason in the world!"

Another strong deputy commander had the same angry expression, and echoed: "Exactly! What's the difference between this and a bandit!"

The burly deputy commander glanced at him, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he patted the table and said angrily: "If the emperor dares to touch my field, I will dare to rebel! I have a big scar on my head! It's better than hard work." The hard-earned foundation is gone!"

As soon as this word comes out.

The entire camp fell into silence.

Both the commander and the three deputy commanders fell silent.

His expression was neither happy nor sad, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Just now.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the camp.

Immediately afterwards, the voice of a soldier sounded.

"My lords, Lord Liu, the magistrate of Yanbei, is here!"

Several commanders looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

"Why is he here!"

Zhao Xuanfeng showed hesitation, was silent for a while, and said lightly: "Let him in."

According to the grade of the court of the state of Zhou.

The magistrate is the fourth grade.

The commander is the third grade.

Although the two are almost the same in terms of status and power, the rank of the commander is a whole level higher, so there is nothing wrong with letting the magistrate visit.

"Yes, my lord!"

After a while.

The magistrate of Yanbei, dressed in a unicorn official robe, came to the camp.

This is a thin middle-aged man, looking at the eyebrows and eyes, there is a little wretched.

"Master Zhao!"

The prefect of Yanbei stood upright and saluted Zhao Xuanfeng.

Zhao Xuanfeng sat on the chair, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, frowned slightly, and said:

"Master Liu has been dismissed by His Majesty for investigation, why is he still wearing this official robe to see me?"

The prefect of Yanbei looked at Zhao Xuanfeng and said seriously:
"I was dismissed and investigated because there were traitors at work... Some time ago, His Majesty wanted to use the Yanbei Mansion as a pilot to implement a new policy. I was limited to clearing the land within two months, dividing the fertile land, and dividing the land into acres.
However, in my opinion, these measures will not only fail to reduce the burden on the people, but will cause a change in the hearts of the people, so he bluntly advised His Majesty to abandon the New Deal.

But I didn't expect that some heartfelt words would be attacked by treacherous officials in the court."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Xuanfeng:
"I don't care why you were dismissed and investigated. You just need to tell me what you are doing here."

The prefect of Yanbei hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "I am here to ask Mr. Zhao, do you know that one of the new policies is aimed at the fields of the guard."

Zhao Xuanfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "You said."

The prefect of Yanbei said slowly:
"The fields of the guards, like the fields of the common people, must be handed over to the government for clearing. After the clearing is over, they will be registered and presented to the court.

How many fields are there, under whose name, good fields or barren fields, they are all clearly recorded. Mr. Zhao thinks, what is the use of the imperial court wanting these? "

What's the use of it, it's nothing more than preparing for the future recovery.

As soon as this word comes out.

Zhao Xuanfeng and several deputy commanders fell silent.

I do not know how long it has been.

Zhao Xuanfeng looked at the prefect of Yanbei, and said coldly: "What are you trying to say!"

The prefect of Yanbei took a deep breath, with a serious expression, and slowly uttered a sentence:

"It's hard to control the treacherous ministers in the court. I invite all my lords. The Qing emperor side!"

As soon as this word comes out.

The entire camp fell into a deathly silence.

Unexpectedly, none of the people present refuted, and none of them stood up and angrily reprimanded the prefect of Yanbei.

It seems that they, like the magistrate of Yanbei, have thoughts on the side of the Qing emperor.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and no one in the tent spoke.

In the end, the burly deputy commander broke the silence and said in a deep voice:
"The whole Yanbei Guards add up, but there are only more than [-] people. The imperial court can wipe us out easily without even using the Huben army. Even if we want to be on the side of the Qing emperor, we have more than enough heart but not enough power."

The magistrate of Yanbei looked at him, and said seriously: "Don't worry about this, as long as you adults play the name of the Qing emperor, it will definitely attract the response of all the government and guards. At that time, many forces will gather together, and there will be more than six thousand people .”

Zhao Xuanfeng looked at the magistrate of Yanbei, and said indifferently: "Why are you so sure that someone will respond? You must know that the Qing emperor's side is a serious crime against the nine clans!"

The magistrate of Yanbei looked solemn, and replied: "I can be sure, Master Zhao, please rest assured!"

Zhao Xuanfeng snorted coldly, and said, "You just want me to take the risk of punishing the nine clans and accompany you to rebel?"

The prefect of Yanbei opened his mouth when he heard this, wanting to say something else.

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded in the camp.

"Noisy!"

hear this voice.

Everyone in the camp was startled, subconsciously looking at the corner on the southwest side of the camp.

There stood a graceful woman in a strong suit, holding a long sword in her arms, leaving only a back view for them.

See this back.

Zhao Xuanfeng, the prefect of Yanbei and several deputy commanders seemed to have thought of something, their eyes flickered, and they fell silent.

at this time.

The woman's cold voice sounded again.

"I'll give you one day to discuss the plan to get out of the Qing emperor's side, and send it to the old locust tree in Zhao's mansion in the south of the city. This heroine will pick it up."

As soon as this word comes out.

The atmosphere in the camp suddenly became a little delicate.

Zhao Xuanfeng and the others looked at the back of the woman, and then at each other, the expressions on their faces gradually froze.

"Could it be that they were all fed poison too?"

The prefect of Yanbei looked at these commanders with strange expressions.

Before coming here, he had already made various preparations.

Racking their brains, thinking about how to persuade them to agree to Qing Jun's side.

结果
They are actually just like themselves, they have all been reduced to puppets controlled by others!
"Don't think about playing tricks, otherwise, no matter how big the world is, this heroine can find and kill you!"

After Tang Rou finished speaking the lines in the script, she was about to leave.

at this time.

Commander Zhao Xuanfeng suddenly said: "Woman stay!"

Tang Rou's foot that was going to step forward was abruptly taken back.

Seeing that Tang Rou didn't leave, Zhao Xuanfeng hurriedly said:

"About the Qing emperor's side, I have a doubt, and I also ask the female hero to answer it for me."

Tang Rou said neither cold nor indifferent: "Speak."

Zhao Xuanfeng looked at her back with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice:
"There are only more than [-] people in the Yanbei Guard. Although it is close to the border, the training is rigorous on weekdays. It can be used on the side of the Qing Emperor. It is not enough. The imperial court may not need to send out the tiger army. Just recruit a few guards and they will be able to kill us." exterminate
In this way, what's the point of Qing Jun's side?
If the heroine doesn't give me a suitable reason to wait, how can I drag the whole family to die? "

Before Tang Rou could speak.

The prefect of Yanbei on the side explained:

"On this point, I have just said it, and the prefects of the surrounding prefectures have hinted to me that as long as you stand up the banner on the side of the Qing emperor, they will respond."

Zhao Xuanfeng was still a little skeptical, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Qing said it nicely, but it is actually treason. This is a serious crime against the nine clans. We are so poisoned that we dare not make a decision lightly, let alone them."

The magistrate of Yanbei said: "The imperial court designated this area as a pilot area for the New Deal. If they don't rebel, the foundation of our ancestors will be destroyed!"

Zhao Xuanfeng said: "It's just paying more land taxes, so it won't go to the point of rebellion."

Hearing this, the magistrate of Yanbei opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but couldn't find a suitable reason.

The reason why he agreed to rebel was because he came from a poor family and his family was weak.

There is only one son who can make him care.

And the shopkeeper Tang promised that as long as he agreed to rebel, he would send his son to Qianguo to protect his prosperity and wealth for the rest of his life.

So he agreed without hesitation.

But he really didn't know what was going on with the prefects of the other prefectures.

Zhao Xuanfeng saw that Yanbei prefect was silent, his eyes flickered, looked at Tang Rou, and said in a deep voice:

"If the heroine can't give a suitable reason, it's tantamount to dragging my whole family to die! If that's the case, it's better to kill me alone!"

The other three deputy commanders looked at each other and thought the same thing.

Even if he dies with a broken liver and intestines, it is better than being punished by the nine clans!
Just now.

Tang Rou's cold voice sounded again.

"They are all poisoned by this poison just like you."

As soon as this word comes out.

Zhao Xuanfeng and others were all dumbfounded.

"So, the prefects of the nearby prefectures and the commanders of the guards are actually puppets of the girl?"

Tang Rou snorted coldly, but didn't answer.

Zhao Xuanfeng hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Even so, I'm afraid it's not enough if you want to be on the side of Lord Qing."

The prefect of Yanbei on the side interjected:
"We are on the side of the Qing emperor, and we are not rebelling!"

"As long as Your Majesty agrees to kill that traitor Wei Dongzheng and stop implementing the New Deal, we will have achieved our goal!"

Zhao Xuanfeng looked at the prefect of Yanbei, hesitantly said: "But."

The magistrate of Yanbei said: "No, but the world has suffered a new policy for a long time, and the banner on the side of the Qing emperor is erected, and the princes in the court will definitely put pressure on your majesty. When the Wei party collapses and your majesty changes his mind, we will withdraw our troops. Negotiate good conditions, there will be no big problem.

Even if His Majesty settles the score after the autumn, Yanbei Mansion is only three hundred miles away from Qianguo, so let's escape to Qianguo. "

The voice fell.

Zhao Xuanfeng fell into deep thought.

I do not know how long it has been.

He slowly raised his head, looked at Tang Rou, and said in a deep voice, "Okay! I will listen to the heroine, and in three days, raise troops. Qingjun side!"

Tang Rou let out a "hmm" and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuanfeng couldn't help but said: "The heroine stays!"

Tang Rou stopped where she was, frowned slightly, and snorted coldly.

"What else is there?"

Zhao Xuanfeng hesitated for a moment, and said: "I'm really curious, why does the heroine turn her back on me? Is it because I'm afraid that we will see her true colors? Or is there another reason?"

As soon as this word comes out.

The eyes of the rest of them lit up, and they looked at Tang Rou, hoping to get an answer.

Obviously, they have struggled with this question for a long time, but they have never dared to ask.

Hear the question.

Tang Rou was silent for a while, and after a while, she slowly said in a voice like the sea has changed: "This heroine has been doing things all her life, why should I explain to you!"

The voice fell.

The whole person disappeared with a whoosh.

Only Zhao Xuanfeng, the prefect of Yanbei and others were left looking at each other, speechless for a long time
