Chapter 241 The Return
Yecheng
Unlike Li Chengqian who lived in the prefect's mansion, Xu Shijie, the commander of the three armies, has never left the barracks.

"Okay, good plan, as expected of His Royal Highness..."

Xu Shijie looked at the letter sent by Li Chengqian and clapped his hands.

"What's the matter, father?"

Hearing the movement in the tent, Xu Qing walked in.

"Because my father is worried about how to deal with these soldiers from the Northern Qi Dynasty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave me a good idea, take a look."

Xu Shijie handed the letter to Xu Qing, also meant to teach him.

"Release [-] soldiers, cut off the tendons in their right hand and left foot, and then give them three days of rations; well, it really is a clever plan."

Having been taught by Xu Shijie's precepts and deeds since childhood, Xu Qing also saw the beauty of this strategy.

The unknown killing of prisoners not only ruins the reputation, but also is not conducive to taking over and comforting the people in Yecheng; if you don't kill yourself, you don't have so much military food to support these soldiers. Just when Xu Shijie was in a dilemma, Li Chengqian handed over this letter.

"No fewer than 1000 people..."

They should be grateful that I didn't kill them, and you should thank me for keeping my word. Li Chengqian acted like I am a good person and you don't know what is good and what is bad.

As soon as the eunuch passing the decree left, Gu Qing'er came up to him, she was afraid that Li Chengqian would leave and leave her in Yecheng.

"It's good to know that you are wrong, but you will be punished if you do something wrong. Are you ready?"

Maybe even God can't bear to see him go on being so perverse, the imperial decree from Emperor Qing has arrived.

"Li Chengqian, you clearly promised that I would treat them well, why did you do that?"

These days, the patriarchs of the big clans in the city offered their daughters to him one after another. In order to appease the hearts of the people and the stability of Yecheng, he accepted them all with a smile.

"Your Highness, Dodo is wrong."

"Ruo Ruo? This is really good news."

"Gu is going back to the capital, are you willing to go with me?"

Knowing how much Emperor Qing valued the power in his hands, Li Chengqian also planned to accept it as soon as it was good. With this news, it happened to be a donkey.

And this kind of person, I'm afraid he is not a fool, right?Although Li Chengqian didn't say it clearly, the expression on his face meant that.

About half an hour later, under the leadership of Gu Qing'er, Haitang Duoduo and Ye Mengyao came to the hall.

In the study of the prefect's mansion, Li Chengqian was playing chess with Ye Mengyao, the daughter of Ye Mengyao, the daughter of the rich family of Yecheng, when Begonia Duoduo rushed in desperately.

"You, do you know that many soldiers threw themselves into the river because they couldn't bear this kind of humiliation?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Just now, she saw the miserable appearance of those released prisoners of war, and some of these people were persuaded to surrender by her in the past few days.

"Oh, it's said that death is worse than life, and there are still people who can't get over it; well, tell Gu, how many people died?"

"Your Highness, are you going back to Kyoto?"

Haitang Duoduo murmured.

But in Haitang Duoduo's eyes, this smile is undoubtedly the precursor of the demon's murder.

There used to be four major families in Yecheng, Zhao, Ye, Qiao, and Zhen. After Li Chengqian connived at the Qing army's rebellion and wiped out the Zhao family, the three major families that were still on the sidelines came to surrender one after another; Among the young and beautiful women, the most eye-catching one is this Ye Mengyao.

As Li Chengqian expected, Gu Qing'er was the first to stand up and express his opinion.

"Returning to Your Highness, the Holy Majesty has not set a date for his return. He only said that he wants to celebrate His Highness at the Longxing Hall on the day of the Double Ninth Festival." (Why does the world have a Double Ninth Festival? Everyone thinks it should be there.)
"Okay, I understand what the father means. When you go to return the decree, tell him that you will return to the capital before the Double Ninth Festival."

thump

Haitang Duoduo was tearful, looking broken.

"His Royal Highness is a born king. At first I thought he was obsessed with women, but these days I saw Gu Weiyong and the patriarchs of the big clans in the city helping us to appease the people of Yecheng, and I understood his deep meaning."

"Father, did you say when you want me to return to Kyoto?"

"Well, the war here is over, and it is indeed time to go back; you go and call Duoduo and Mengyao, and I have something to tell you."

Fearing that the fish in the pond would be harmed, Ye Mengyao lowered her head and bowed.

"I thought you were a smart person and would figure it out on your own; I didn't expect you to be so stupid and come to me yelling, who gave you the courage?"

…………

"Dodo is also willing."

"It's just that the tendon in the right hand and the tendon in the left foot are broken, so that they can't be soldiers, but they can go back to their hometown and be a farmer in peace;
As for the face branding, it is to give them a long memory, and it is to deter other Northern Qi people, letting them know what will happen if they go against Qing Guo;

"presumptuous"

"It's normal to have a thousand such idiots in 5 people;
Duoduo, it was only because of your face that you spared the lives of these 9000 people; if you think this is not good, there are still more than 3 people, I will let Xu Shijie handle it by himself, what do you think? "

"You go out first."

"Your Highness, calm down, Your Highness, calm down..."

Haitang Duoduo stood up second, which was a bit beyond Li Chengqian's expectation. Could it be Stockholm Syndrome?

By the way, Gu also asked Xu Shijie to give them three days of rations, isn't that enough to treat them well? "

There is a devil in everyone's heart, but Li Chengqian is the devil himself at this moment.

There is still a month before the Double Ninth Festival, and it will take 20 days to rush back to Kyoto from Yecheng. Emperor Qing still left time for himself to do the handover.

After Li Chengqian said this, he smiled at Haitang Duoduo, like a big brother next door who is harmless to humans and animals.

"It's not a lie, I've treated them kindly..."

…………

She always knew that the person in front of her was a demon in human skin, but Haitang Duoduo still didn't expect that he would be so scary.

Gu Qing'er can be regarded as the master of the harem in the palace in Yecheng, Li Chengqian told her.

Li Chengqian had a very democratic posture.

"You let Xu Shijie break their tendons and tendons, is this called treating them kindly? Putting marks on their faces, is this called treating them kindly?"

"Weifu was originally worried that the crown prince would be confused by that Northern Qi saintess and force me to release these prisoners of war, but now it seems that I was worrying unfoundedly."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Li Chengqian was a little disappointed, he waved to Ye Mengyao, signaling her to leave first.

Joining if you can't beat it is not something that happens now, Li Chengqian didn't reveal that aspect, the night when he moved into the prefect's mansion, Gu Qing'er, the prefect's prostitute's daughter, climbed into his bed;
Gu Weiyong, a cheap father-in-law, moved out of the prefect's mansion, and helped him appease the people of Yecheng.

"As long as His Highness does not give up, Qing'er is willing to go to the capital."

Haitang Duoduo obeyed Li Chengqian's order to recruit the stubborn surrounding forces. Although Xu Shijie saw it, he did not let down his vigilance towards this woman.

It is said that being with you is like being with a tiger, so why isn't Li Chengqian, the crown prince of an enemy country who holds the power of life and death in Yecheng, just another tiger?
Ye Mengyao followed suit and left the room.

In the first half of the life and death of the soldiers and soldiers, the beauties still danced and danced under the tent.

"You promised me that you would treat them well, why did you lie to me?"

Li Chengqian asked the eunuch who passed the decree.

Of course Li Chengqian knew why Haitang Duoduo came to him.

Li Chengqian didn't work on personnel matters, but the officers and men in the Nanqing Army still loved him very much, which is no one else.

"Your Highness, Mengyao's father's 60th birthday is three days away. Can Mengyao accompany his father to celebrate his birthday before going to the capital?"

Knowing that going to the capital means that she will never see her relatives again in her lifetime, Ye Mengyao pleaded.

"There are a few small things, there is nothing wrong with it, and Gu is not a harsh person."

For obedient women, Li Chengqian is still very tolerant.
