Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 99 Detachment of Women (First Order!)

Qin Lang was greatly moved by Lao Niu's words.

After thinking for a long time, Qin Lang turned his attention to Zheng Xuanli.

"Duke Zheng, please bring me a thank you form back to Chang'an and present it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The current situation is such that even though Qin Lang is incapable, he can't retreat in the face of danger. If you want to get in, you have to step over my Qin Lang's corpse first."

"I am grateful for the crown prince's appreciation. I accepted the errand in Youzhou, but I dare not accept the reward from His Royal Highness. Wang Junkuo sealed a thousand households, but I refused to accept it. Wang Junkuo's family has servants such as Qian Bo, etc., and I dare not accept it." Collect. All the money temporarily shared with Li Yuan will be put into the treasury of Youzhou, as a reward for the soldiers who quelled the chaos, and as a reward for grain and grass for the Turks.”

When Zheng Xuanli saw that Qin Lang had directly rejected Wang Junkuo's reward of one thousand households and property, he couldn't help secretly marveling, this kid really has some morals, not as young and ignorant as he appears on the surface.Although the crown prince rewarded him, if he really dared to accept it, then he would have [-] households sealed off, and this would become the courtier with the most sealed titles below the imperial clan.

And how could Qin Lang He De seal so many?The Zhenfeng of Changle Princess had already made many officials jealous and dissatisfied. If Qin Lang dared to take over the thousand households, he would be overwhelmed with saliva.

"Duke Yi, this is a reward from His Highness the Crown Prince, and the decree has already been issued, why bother to refuse."

"At the moment of national crisis, I, Qin Lang, should be thinking about the country. Is this the time to think about these things?" After Qin Lang finished speaking, he went to write a thank you form, and returned a brief one to Li Shimin.

Qin Lang didn't bother to pay much attention to this guy who sold his daughter.

After sending him away, he began to send people to summon Shuang Shiluo, Guo Xiaoke, Cheng Mingzhen, Su Dingfang, Qi Shanxing, Wang Junzhen, Qiu Shi and other governors to come to Youzhou to discuss matters.

The backyard of the Governor's Mansion.

Dou Hongxian is packing up and preparing to return to Mingzhou.

Qin Lang came in with the prince's reward order.

"Auntie, the prince was very happy to hear that Uncle Luo had a queen, and specially granted Taipinglang the title of Lord Tan Guogong. In addition, when he heard that my aunt came out to help put down the Youzhou rebellion this time, the prince called Dou Gong to the ministers. Wang, you can promote benevolent government in Hebei and win the hearts of the people..."

Dou Hongxian put down her luggage and sat there silent for a long time.

"I am very grateful to the prince for allowing Taipinglang to inherit Luolang's title, but I am not grateful for his posthumous gift to my father. This is just a way for him to buy people's hearts in Hebei. Adopted daughter? Has he asked my consent?"

Qin Lang had expected that Dou Hongxian might have such an attitude, and he persuaded, "Auntie, there is an old saying that goes well, winners and losers, those who have always been defeated in fighting for the world, no matter benevolence or cruelty, will be defeated by the victors in the end." After stepping on a few feet and pouring a lot of dirty water, the prince can now rehabilitate King Xia and give him a good posthumous title. Temple sacrifices, this is already extremely rare, Auntie, who else can do this throughout the ages?"

"If the king of Xia has knowledge under Jiuquan, I'm afraid he will be moved. This is the case. Auntie is considering King Xia's posthumous name and Taipinglang's future. Why not accept the order to thank you? The prince said that if the auntie is not willing Going to Chang'an is not too much of a hassle, [-] households are sealed off, and [-] mu of land can all be chosen in Hebei."

"Besides, it was the emperor who wanted to kill King Xia back then, and the crown prince could hardly disobey his will. Now that the emperor is still alive, the crown prince can rehabilitate King Xia, which is extremely rare."

Dou Hongxian sighed, "So I have to thank him?"

"My nephew asked my aunt to take over the edict and express my gratitude. This is not only a private matter and a family matter, but also a major event in Hebei and the whole world. My aunt also knows that the Turkic invasion is imminent, and now we need to unite the power of the entire Hebei to defend against the Turks. In the past, King Xia’s old department, Li Yi’s old department, and even Wang Junkuo’s old department should unite as long as they can unite. As long as everyone is willing to resist the Turks together and prevent the Turks’ iron hooves from trampling on Hebei, then we should all put aside our past grievances. Do you agree?"

These words are to suppress personal hatred with righteousness.

Dou Hongxian couldn't refute either.

"I can accept the edict, or express my gratitude, but I will not go to Chang'an, let alone call Li Shimin my father."

"Auntie can do this in private."

"Auntie, I also have a request. I want Auntie to return to Mingzhou later."

Qin Lang proposed to let Dou Hongxian be his general, mainly to use her reputation to call for the reorganization of Hebei King Xia's old troops.

"Nowadays Hebei's military strength is limited, and there is no division of each other. I was ordered to supervise Youzhou to comfort Hebei when I was in danger. I must unite these soldiers and horses, otherwise the Turks will invade and they will be destroyed by then."

"I am a first-class woman!"

"Auntie was in King Xia's army back then. She trained the women's army and led the rear army. She also went out to attack and made many military exploits. The soldiers admired her."

"Dingfang is very prestigious in the army, you just let him organize them."

"General Su plus Auntie, that's like a tiger with wings added."

In fact, the most suitable general candidate for Youzhou at this time should be Li Yi. He controlled Youzhou for more than ten years from the end of the Sui Dynasty until the fifth year of Wude. The state can't help it.

If Luo Yi returns to Youzhou, the Turkic people will not dare to invade.

It's just that Li Shimin's army has seized the throne, and his foundation is not stable now. When foreign enemies invade, he dare not send Luo Yi to Youzhou at all.

Even the brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun, former Luo Yi's subordinates, dare not send them here.

For the same reason, Li Shimin did not dare to send Liu Hongji, Changsun Shunde, Chai Shao, Shi Wanbao, Qian Jiulong, Fan Xing and other generals in the court.

I would rather let these people stay in Chang'an than easily let these people out to command the front line.

If there is another Wang Junkuo, it will be an internal and external emergency.

Even Li Xiaogong and Li Shimin, who are extremely capable in the clan, dare not mention a word.

After the rebellion between Li Yuan and Wang Junkuo happened, Li Shimin originally relaxed a little bit towards the emperor's elders and the prince's henchmen, but immediately tightened that string again.

For Li Shimin, it is important to defend against the Turks, but he must first stabilize his position.

At this time, Qin Qiong was stationed in Liangzhou, Li Jing was in Lingzhou, Li Shiji was in Bingzhou, Yu Chigong was stationed in the northwest of Chang'an to monitor Li Yi in Jingzhou, Hou Junji was stationed in Weibei to monitor Chai Shao in Qizhou, and Qu Tutong was in Luoyang. , guarding the east of Chang'an.

Cheng Yaojin guards Chang'an.

For Li Shimin, it is also helpless to ask Qin Lang to inspect the governor of Youzhou and comfort Hebei.Some people also persuaded him to choose one of the generals guarding Hebei as the main general to preside over Hebei.But among the old ministers of the hidden residence that Li Shimin in Hebei can trust, there are only two people, Shuang Shiluo and Qiu Shi. Others are Guo Xiaoke and Cheng Mingzhen. Never met once.

Qi Shanxing was originally Dou Jiande's prime minister, and Wang Junji was Wang Junkuo's deputy.

Shuang Shiluo and Qiu Shi, one is the governor of Jizhou, and the other is the governor of Dingzhou. They are brave enough, but they are not capable of commanding. The generals refused to accept each other.

In any case, Qin Lang is young and has little qualifications, but because of this, he is in Youzhou, which means that he is completely Li Shimin's confidant and close minister. This is the same as other dynasties who sent eunuchs to supervise the army. Niu Jinda and Su Lie will be in charge.

Of course, there is another reason. Li Shimin felt that since Qin Lang was able to put down Wang Junkuo and Li Yuan's rebellion in such a short and quick manner, it also fully demonstrated that Qin Lang's ability was still very strong. Even Wang Junkuo was in the dark. They just can't do it.

Sitting there in the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, Qin Lang felt that there was nothing to be excited about, and he began to feel heavy pressure.

Wei Zheng, Cui Dunli and other famous subordinates presented all kinds of reports in front of him, and there were piles of official documents on his case waiting for review.

After Qin Lang flipped through the meeting, he didn't even bother to read it.

If you do this by yourself, you don't have to do anything, just stay here all day to read and review official documents.

"Let's have a meeting!"

As a boss leader, you have to know how to lead, that is, how to assign tasks.

Youzhou Governor's Mansion has just experienced a downgrade, and now it only governs six states, basically the border states south of Yanshan Mountain.

In addition to the military affairs of the six states in charge of the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, it also has two brands and a set of people and horses to work together with Youzhou.

The Governor's Mansion and the State Yamen Office were working. After a civil strife, many confidantes of Li Yuan, Wang Shen, and Wang Junkuo were killed. Fortunately, Qin Lang brought a lot of people to fill in temporarily.

In the large meeting hall of the Governor's Mansion, all high-ranking officials participated in the meeting, and even some important officials sat on their knees to attend the meeting as nonvoting delegates.

"The civil strife is new, and the enemy is approaching. I am ordered by the prince to inspect the governor of Youzhou and appease the land of Shandong and Hebei. Now there are so many things going on, and everyone is busy all day long. But I want to say a few words , things have to be prioritized, or else it’s just a waste of time.”

"The top priority right now is to do three things first. The first thing is to distribute the rewards for fighting the chaos first, and they must be given in place to boost the morale of the army. The soldiers and horses of the several major systems under the command quickly transformed into a wartime battalion formation, and they must be deployed immediately. The third is to keep up with the logistics and supply of military supplies!"

"Everyone, from now on, do these three things first, and do these three things for me first."

"Master Wei, you are inspecting the governor's office Sima, and you will first be responsible for checking the merits of the chaos and then issuing rewards. It must be fast, and it must be open, fair and just, and it must be publicized."

"Niu Cishi, you are the governor of Beiyan Prefecture, and you are also a general sent by the prince. I will add another burden to you and temporarily appoint you as the acting Sima of the Youzhou Dudufu. Things."

"Li Changshi, you are the Chief of the Governor's Mansion specially sent by His Royal Highness, and now I ask you to be in charge of the logistics, money, food and military affairs."

Qin Lang said to the three of them, "I'll entrust the task to the three of you, and each of you will be responsible for one piece. If you can't handle the errand, you are the only ones who ask!"
