Great Han Empire

Chapter 156

"Handan can't stay for too long, something will happen after a long time." Li Hong said, "What about keeping promises?"

"Zheng Junhou has been in the prison camp." Li Hong's attendant replied.

"Go and tell him, inform Yingtao as quickly as possible, and send people to Handan to take over the prime minister's mansion and handle all the military and political affairs of Zhao State."

Looking at the figure of his attendant galloping away, Li Hong smiled at Xian Yufu, and Tian Zhong said: "There is too much difference between laying down a city and governing a city. When I heard Mr. Zhang say these things in Zhongshan Kingdom, I just I thought it was more complicated, but I didn’t think it was too difficult. Now that it’s my turn to do it, I suddenly feel complicated and unable to start. Yuxing, you just said a lot of things we have to do at the gate of the city. You are very good at it, why not just let you be the city guard for the time being, and take care of everything."

Xian Yufu shook his hands and said with a smile: "I have been in charge of military affairs in Youzhou Mansion, and I don't know the responsibilities of other subordinates. I just know a little bit. You should come and I will manage the army."

Li Hong was dumbfounded.He said without giving up: "Yu Xing, you are more familiar than me, I don't know these things at all."

Tian Zhong comforted: "Take this matter as a battle, think about it, it will definitely work, isn't it just a few days for a while. People in the Yellow Turban Army can do it well, why can't you? It's very simple."

Li Hong said angrily: "It's very simple? Then you do it."

Tian Zhong gave him a blank look, and hurriedly dragged Xian Yufu into the mansion.Li Hong raised his foot and was about to follow in, when he saw Hu Zi galloping towards him from a distance.

"grown ups……"

"What's the matter?" Li Hong asked nervously.

"The refugees in the city gathered in the porridge place in the city one after another, and the number of people has gathered more and more." Huzi said anxiously, panting.

"Then quickly order the soldiers to cook porridge." Li Hong said, "What are you doing looking for me?"

"My lord, where is the food?"

Li Hong was dumbfounded when he heard that, and hurriedly shouted at Tian Zhong's back: "Old man, old man, where is the grain depot of the Yellow Turban Army?"

Tian Zhong shook his head.He followed Li Hong into the city, of course he didn't know.

"That's right. You rush to the prisoner's camp immediately, find out the person in the Yellow Turban Army who is doing this every day, and let him take charge in the future." Li Hong suddenly remembered, and excitedly said to his beard.

Huzi agreed and hurried away.Then Li Hong saw Xiaolan, and a dozen junior officers ran over one after another. Looking at the anxious expressions on their faces, he knew it was urgent without asking.Li Hong was surrounded by them and didn't know which one to answer.

Suddenly he remembered something.

"When we were in Nulu, who was responsible for handling these messy things?" Li Hong asked loudly.

"Don't adults know?" Xiaolan asked strangely.

Li Hong shook his head.When he was in Nulu, he looked at the map every day and studied the battle situation in Jizhou. No one bothered him at all, so he didn't know about it.

"Before the Prime Minister arrived, which expert was directing you?" Li Hong asked again.

"Tiger Head." Little Lazy said, "It's Big Brother Tiger Head."

Li Hong's eyes widened, feeling a little unbelievable, "Tiger head? Zishan?"

Tian Zhong and Xian Yufu turned around at this moment and walked over again.

Xian Yufu smiled and said, "Zimin, you can't think of it, can you?"

Li Hong nodded and said with a smile, "Zishan still has this ability?"

"He's not very capable, but he is very orderly in command, and he knows how to do everything." Tian Zhong said with a smile: "Zishan was the head of the pavilion, the head of the village, and the village has a rank (you rank in charge of the administration of a township, He also collects taxes.) He is very familiar with this system in the government office."

"The last time you were in Nulu, did you follow his command?"

"Really?" Xiaolan said, "I didn't want to bother you, but Big Brother Hutou is fighting with Zilong and Zijun, and they don't listen to them when they are told to stop."

Li Hong suddenly became angry, and he shouted: "This Zijun, tell him to fight, but he ran up to fight. A bunch of lunatics."

At this moment, Qi Chen galloped back again, and he yelled loudly on the horse: "My lord, it's not good, it's not good..."

Li Hongda was taken aback, pushed away the crowd, went up to him and asked, "What happened again?"

Abandoning Shen Fei and dismounting, he said loudly: "My lord, Yang Feng's mansion is guarded by a group of guards with strong bows. We attacked several times but failed to get in. It seems that there are some important people inside?"

Li Hong said in surprise, "Can't you attack?"

Then he remembered something, laughed and said: "Little lazy, go and call Zishan, tell him to fight in, and arrest that important person to see me."

======================
Zhao Yun saluted Li Hong solemnly, and then stood behind him.

Li Hong was reading the interrogation records sent by Zheng Xin, and there were still many documents to be processed on the desk.

"Who won?" Li Hong asked with concern.

Zhao Yun did not answer.

Li Hong turned to look at him strangely, and said with a smile, "Zilong, aren't you happy?"

"No." Zhao Yun said, "We have captured the man in Yang Feng's residence."

Li Hong didn't care. He pointed to the documents on the desk and said, "Help me to see, and show me the important ones. This Zishan hasn't seen anyone else all morning. I heard that he is very good at dealing with the county government. Things, I expected him to help me, but I haven't seen anyone until now. What is he doing?"

Zhao Yun went to the desk to look through the documents, and whispered, "He's still in Yang Feng's residence."

"Oh." Li Hong asked casually, "What are you still doing at Yang Feng's mansion?"

"We have captured that important person in Yang Feng's residence." Zhao Yun said again.

Only then did Li Hong notice what Zhao Yun said.He smiled and said, "Who is it? It's so important that it deserves the protection of many people sent by Yang Feng?"

Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's Yang Feng's wife and children, and his two younger sisters."

Li Hong smiled and said in admiration: "Yang Feng loves his family so much, it shows that he has a good heart. If a person doesn't love his family, how can he love the people in the world? Zilong, do you think so?" ?”

Zhao Yun nodded.

Li Hong pointed to the bamboo slips in front of him and said: "I see that many prisoners said that Yang Feng was cruel and scheming, and he was a young general in the Yellow Turban Army who was very good at fighting. He was nicknamed Nine-headed Bird, which shows that People are more difficult to deal with than Chu Feiyan. There are many brilliant men in the Yellow Turban Army. Zilong, what's on your mind? What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable? Did Zishan hurt you?"

Zhao Yun blushed and shook his head embarrassedly.

"What's the matter? Tell me?" Li Hong laughed.

"Zishan..." Zhao Yun stammered, "Zishan..."

Li Hong tapped the bamboo slips with his fingers, and suddenly said sharply, "Did Zishan kill everyone?"

Zhao Yun hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no, my lord, he's taken a fancy to Yang Feng's sister."

"That one?" Li Hong asked in surprise.

"Both of them fell in love." Zhao Yun said, "Sister Yang Feng is a pair of beautiful twin sisters."

Li Hong was stunned for a long time, then suddenly burst out laughing.

"What about others? Aren't you here to help with things?"

Seeing that Li Daohong was not angry, Zhao Yun also smiled and said: "Zishan was worried that they would be snatched away, so he brought a group of soldiers to guard Yang Feng's mansion."

Li Hong said with a smile: "Will he agree to his murderous look?"

Zhao Yun glanced at him in surprise, and said in a low voice, "My lord, as long as you agree, they are Zishan's."

Li Hong asked puzzledly: "Why? Just because they are Yang Feng's family members and rebellious relatives, we can do whatever we want?"

Zhao Yun looked at him in surprise, but didn't dare to make a sound.

Li Hong looked at Zhao Yun's surprised look and asked, "Am I wrong?"

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "According to the law of the Han Dynasty, these rebellious nine clans will be executed. Even if they are given a lighter punishment and can survive, the situation is very miserable. Men, young and old, will be sent to the border, and women will be sent to the border. They were sold as servants and prostitutes. Now they can be rewarded to Yan Liang as spoils of war, that is their blessing, it is a good thing that fell from the sky."

Zhao Yun paused for a moment, then continued: "This is something that should be rewarded to Zishan as a matter of course, and it is also something that can help Yang Feng's two younger sisters escape from death. If my lord insists on not allowing it, isn't it a bit..."

"Something?" Li Hong asked.

"A bit heartless." Zhao Yun said firmly.

"Ruthless?" Li Hong was surprised, and then he glanced at Zhao Yun a little annoyed, and said seriously: "I'm going to let these people go, let go of them all, including the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who don't want to surrender. Let me go like this Is it ruthless to do it?"

"My lord's doing this is against the law." Zhao Yun looked at Li Hong without showing any weakness, and said firmly, "It's against the law, my lord. This time is different from Fan Yang's time. In Fan Yang, my lord's purpose was to facilitate the early surrender of the Yellow Turban Army. So you can make a temporary change. But this time, my lord is purely out of sympathy for rebellion, so I did this kind of thing that violated the laws of the Han Dynasty. My lord's doing this is wrong, and I will be held accountable by the court and punished.”

Li Hong was stunned when he saw Zhao Yun's flushed face from excitement.Is this the usually gentle and refined Zhao Yun?
Li Hong suddenly felt that his own ideas and those of his subordinates were different in many places, even the most basic views.

For example, this case of dealing with rebellious relatives.Li Hong believed that they were innocent at all, and he didn't want to see them die or fall into a miserable situation because of his own reasons, so he found many reasons to persuade his subordinates to let them go.Although my subordinates didn't understand it, and thought that executing them and punishing them was a very normal, correct, and justified thing, but why did I insist on thinking that it was wrong?Although Xian Yufu and Tian Zhong both agreed with their actions at the gate of the city and did not raise any objections, it was obvious that they did not understand, but because they were their chief generals, their officials were greater than theirs, and their rights were greater than theirs. So they are used to obedience.But now Zhao Yun is not afraid of his power at all, and has firmly raised his objections.
