Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 364 Good News Repeatedly
An eunuch trotted in, saluted Li Chengqian and said, "Your Majesty! The King of Wu reported."

"Submit it quickly, I hope King Wu can bring me good news." Li Chengqian said.

Wang Quan hurriedly walked down the stairs, and received the report from Qingxi from the eunuch: "Back down!"

"Promise!" The eunuch bowed and retreated, Wang Quan turned back to Li Chengqian and handed the memorial to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian hurriedly took it apart and checked it. After reading it, he showed a gratified smile.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! It seems that His Royal Highness King Wu's trip to Qingxi must have successfully completed the task, and I am afraid that he will be able to return to Chang'an soon." When Di Renjie saw Li Chengqian smiling, he knew that Li Ke must be announcing good news.

"Di Qing, you guessed right! Li Ke gave me a detailed explanation of the situation in Qingxi this time."

"It's just that I never expected that the matter was more serious than I thought. All the officials in Qingxi County participated in it, and even the eunuchs, wealthy businessmen and other prominent people in Qingxi are a group of moths that suck human blood." Li Cheng Qiandao.

If it weren't for the report sent back by Li Ke, he would not have known that the matter would be so serious. Even though he had already thought the matter was very serious, it was beyond his imagination.

The more Li Chengqian thought about it, the angrier he became. If this gang of Hundan stayed in Qingxi for one more day, the people would live a desolate life under their oppression.

This century-old flood, not only did these guys not report it to the court, but they even intensified it, making the people who were already living in dire straits even worse.

The common people have no living heads, so they naturally have to find another way out, and rising from the rebellion has become their only way out, if they fight, they still have a glimmer of life, if they don't fight, they will die.

At this moment, they no longer cared that rebellion was a capital crime, and they could only fight to survive. Anyway, there is a dead end on the left and right, so why not fight.

"Qingxi Mountain is high and the valley is deep, the rivers are criss-crossing, and the products are very rich. Because of this, the imperial court collects a lot of taxes here, and the burden on the local people is already very heavy."

"Being an official in Qingxi, you can get a lot of oil and water casually. This time, Qingxi encountered a flood that is rare in a century. If the local officials report it, they will have no oil and water to fish for."

"This is related to their vital interests. Naturally, they will not report the truth to the court, but still collect a large amount of taxes." Di Renjie said.

For their own personal interests, these people dare to do any kind of danger, and even do things that are devoid of conscience.

"This gang of Hun Dan really deserve to die. Now that Li Ke has killed all the officials, big and small, in Qingxi County, and exiled them, the imperial court must select a group of upright officials to take up their posts as soon as possible."

"Although Qingxi now has Li Ke in charge, this is not a long-term solution after all. It is impossible for Li Ke to stay in Qingxi forever." Li Chengqian said.

All the officials in Qingxi County were cleaned up, and the entire Qingxi could not operate normally with Li Ke alone.

"Where does Your Majesty plan to choose candidates from?" Di Renjie said.

"Isn't there still a lot of alternate officials in the imperial court? Let's choose from among them!" Li Chengqian said.

"That's fine, but how does His Majesty know how many of these alternate officials have real talents and how many have no real talents?" Di Renjie said.

"Then according to Di Qing, what do you think should be done about this matter?" Li Chengqian asked, he felt that what Di Renjie said made sense.

"Isn't this year's imperial examination about to start? Why don't your majesty take this opportunity to let these alternate officials take the exam again, and your majesty will personally invigilate the examination, and select qualified officials. In addition to serving as officials of Qingxi County, they can also be assigned to other positions. prefectures and counties." Di Renjie said.

The evaluation of these alternate officials is conducive to the selection of qualified officials by the imperial court and the elimination of unqualified ones.

It can prevent some people from making up their numbers and improve the quality and quality of officials.

"Di Qing is right. I will do as you said. During this imperial examination, these officials will be assessed, and I will be the examiner myself." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Di Renjie said.

An eunuch ran in from outside the hall, saluted Li Chengqian, and said, "Report to Your Majesty! Liang Jianfang, the general manager of the Gongyue Road marching, hastened the good news for eight hundred miles."

Wang Quan walked down the stairs with ease, took the good news from the eunuch, waved the eunuch to retreat, turned back to Li Chengqian, and handed Liang Jianfang's good news to Li Chengqian.

"Haha!" Li Chengqian took the good news, opened the seal, poured out the good news and opened it. After reading it, he immediately burst out laughing.

"If my guess is correct, General Liang Jianfang has also sent good news to His Majesty. Ashina Helu must have been captured." Di Renjie guessed.

"That's right! Liang Jianfang not only defeated Ashina Helu and made him a lost dog, but in the end he captured Ashina Helu in Sudu City of Shiguo." Li Chengqian laughed.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, two good news came in a row, Li Chengqian is naturally refreshed, he feels great, and everything he sees is pleasing to the eye.

"Why did Ashina Helu go to Shi Country, and how was he captured?" Di Renjie asked.

"What did Di Qing want to say?" Li Chengqian asked.

"I'm just curious. Ashina Helu is also considered a generation of heroes. Even if he becomes a bereaved dog, he shouldn't run around like a headless chicken." Di Renjie said.

"He is not a headless fly. He originally planned to flee to Shulushe. He passed through Shiguo, but the horse refused to enter, and everyone was hungry. So He Lu brought treasures into the city to buy horses."

"After the city lord Ineda Gan learned about it, he came out to greet him in person, and set up a banquet for Ashina Helu and his party."

"Hungry Ashina Helu and others will naturally not be polite to Inieda. Under the hospitality of Inieda Gan, Ashina Helu and others got drunk."

"Seeing that Ashina Helu and the others were so drunk, Ineda tied them all up and handed them over to the King of Shi Kingdom."

"Just at this time, Ashina Yuanshuang, the son of Ashina Mishe, and Xiao Siye's soldiers arrived. The king was afraid of Datang's strength, so he handed over Ashina Helu to them, and let Xiao Siye and Ashina Yuanshuang Take Ashina Helu away." Li Chengqian told Di Renjie what had happened.

Fortunately, the two of Xiao Siye led the troops to chase after Shi Guo, otherwise, it is hard to say what will happen to Ashina Helu.

The two of Xiao Siye led the troops to Shiguo, which made the hesitant king of Shiguo make up his mind to hand over Ashina Helu. The king was afraid that if he didn't hand over, Shiguo would be wiped out by the Tang army.

"So that's what happened! Your Majesty must reward Liang Jianfang and other generals properly this time." Di Renjie laughed.
