Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang came to the palace in a sedan chair, and met Taizong in the Chongzheng Hall, "I see your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

"The emperor's nephew is free." Taizong looked at Defang and nodded, "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty" Defang sat aside

"Is the emperor's nephew in better health?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I'm all well, and my body is fine."

"That's good." Taizong nodded, "On the third day after I issued the imperial edict, I received the report from the secret envoy, saying that the emperor's nephew was ill and needed to recuperate in Jinzhou for a period of time. The state is in chaos, but the situation is urgent, and it is really too late to issue a second edict."

"I understand that this is a minor ailment, and it is my fault to make His Majesty worry so much. Fortunately, I did not disgrace my mission."

"The emperor's nephew is my vassal, and also my close relative. In the past few months, I have been worried about the war, and I have been worried about the emperor's nephew. Now, the chaos is under control, and the emperor's nephew is safe and sound. Come on, I finally let go of the big stone in my heart."

"Your Majesty, subject..."

"Emperor's nephew," Taizong interrupted Defang, "There are only two uncles and nephews in the Chongzheng Palace, don't always call him Your Majesty."

"Yes, Uncle Emperor," Defang cupped his hands and said, "This trip to Jinzhou went very smoothly. Peng Tianxian, the prefect of Jinzhou, actively prepared for the war, drilled the state's soldiers and horses, stored food and grass in advance to prevent the siege of the chaos, and sent troops to help surrounding counties and counties." My nephew was in Jinzhou for nearly [-] days, and I learned that Peng Tianxian is an honest and honest official, and is highly respected by the local people. I also heard that there has been no wrong case in the past few years in Jinzhou. Not only that, but Peng Tianxian has also dealt with many cases left by the former magistrate. The accumulation of cases has calmed the hearts of the local people. The disaster in Sichuan and Sichuan is approaching Jinzhou, but the people of Jinzhou are not panicked. Each household responds to the recruitment of the prefect, and volunteers to send out a strong man to practice bravely with the soldiers every day. The number of recruits reaches [-] The others, my nephew and nephew think that the Jinzhou can be so stable, thanks to Peng Tianxian's contribution."

Taizong nodded, "I read the books of the emperor's nephew and Peng Tianxian, and asked the Ministry of Officials to look up Peng Tianxian's records. He is indeed a capable official."
