Vol 3 Chapter 35: Select imperial commission (one more)

In the early dynasty of the next day, the emperor told the world that the Northern Zhou Dynasty had deceived too much, and Yanbei was dangerously scorched. This time, General Su was in the west and had already conquered the city of Northern Wednesday. The Northern Zhou Dynasty was gathering troops to seize the city. Prepare food, grass, and army payments, and fight Bei Zhou to the end.
Headed by Prime Minister Sun, Wang Daxiong, Xiaoguoshu, and Bingbu Shangshu, Qi Qi responded to the emperor's decision.
The emperor immediately issued the imperial decree and instructed the Department of Internal Affairs to reduce the cost of the palace as appropriate. Prime Minister Sun, Wang Dacheng and others followed the Sacred Heart as the palace, and expressed their willingness to use the surplus grain in the palace for public use and transport it to the west for military use.
The emperor immediately made an decree, instructing Xu Yunchu to supervise the payment of the grain and grass army, all the power of the whole country, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Xu Yun was the leader of the temple.
This is the first time in the history of Nanqi to take the initiative to fight the Northern Zhou with a decisive attitude, and with the determination not to let the Northern Zhou beg for mercy, Xu Yunchu moved quickly and resolutely to supervise the grain and grass.
The cost of the palace was reduced. The royal family, headed by King Jin, naturally agreed to the emperor’s will. The Prime Minister's Mansion, the University Scholar's Mansion, the Guozhang Mansion, and the six Shangshu Mansion unanimously supported the war in the Western Region. Not only was it negligent, the mansion that had no surplus donated silver taels.
In one day, Ju Chao raised up a hot wind preparing for the army's salary, food and grass, and made a good start.
Xu Yunchu naturally couldn't let this hot wind dissipate quickly. With the emperor's imperial decree, he quickly sent the emperor's notice to all states, counties, and moved the hot wind out of the capital, spreading everywhere.
Soon officials from all states, counties, and counties got the news. For the black hats on their heads, they quickly counted their own granaries and ordered them to report to transport the capital to Xu Yunchu.
Xu Yunchu's most important purpose was to pick up grain from the wealthy squires. Naturally, he could not satisfy that only the officials of the states, counties and counties acted. Therefore, he privately arranged people and sent them to various states and counties to mobilize the squires of the rich side.
Since ancient times, businessmen have been pursuing profit and keeping money. If they donate only a small amount, they will take the initiative to fight for a good hope. But Xu Yunchu didn’t want a little bit. His goal was to spend half of the wealthy family’s wealth. Difficult.
But even if it is difficult, we must do it.
Since ancient times, military warfare has cost nothing more than people and money.
Xu Yunchu was in full swing to supervise the provision of food, grass, and army payments. He was busy day and night. The emperor was very relieved of Xu Yunchu, but at the same time he was very worried about the king of Xiangjun in the east.
He announced that Prime Minister Sun and Wang Lu had entered the palace to discuss matters concerning the king of Xiang County.
The King of Xiang County first went to Yanbei before the war against Yanbei in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and then detoured to the west to Jiangnan. Now that the Jiangnan is in chaos, he has escaped and returned to the east. .
Prime Minister Sun suggested that since the king of Xiangjun embraces Chaos, as the king of the first realm, the emperor should take care of him when he hears that he is embarrassed, and that he should send an imperial envoy to bring a royal doctor to see him.
Wang Lu nodded, saying that it was time to send an imperial envoy to bring an imperial doctor to the east.
The emperor nodded when he heard the words, "I also have this intention. Who do you think is suitable for you?"
Prime Minister Sun and Wang Lu glanced at each other, and Wang Lu said, "From various signs, even if the King of Xiangjun is not rebellious, he has a treacherous heart. In this case, the Eastern Border is a dangerous place. This imperial candidate must be determined carefully. ."
Prime Minister Sun nodded, "Master Wang is absolutely right."
The emperor said, "I also know this, so I announced that you two will discuss this matter."
Wang Lu pondered, "Since the Eastern Territory is a dangerous place, we need to send a talented person. The Xiangjun king has secretly planned for many years, and his thoughts are deep. If he is imperial and shallow, I am afraid that he is not the opponent of the Xiangjun king. A few words will be set out. If it comes to the matter, it would be bad for the Xiang Junwang to prevent a counterattack."
The emperor said, "In this case, don't you need people with both civil and military skills to go? After all, the king of Xiangjun has a sinister heart. If he shoots an imperial envoy, it will be dangerous to go there."
Wang Lu said,
It’s best for people with both civil and military skills to go, but looking at the courts and the public, there is a talented and proficient in martial arts, one is Xiaoguo uncle, but now Xiaoguo uncle is supervising the food and grass needed in the western region. It was Ye Shizi from the Royal Palace of Rong'an, but Ye Shizi took the wound to Yanbei, and then my grandson Su Qing, but now he has just taken his life to recover from his wounds at Lingyun Temple, afraid that he will not be able to run around. Sun Gongzi is full of talent, and the two old cases are almost handled, and he can get away, but he is not familiar with martial arts. Among the younger generation of juniors, Qishu, a small county in the Pingjun Palace, has some skills, but he has not yet entered the court. After training, I’m afraid it’s hard to be an important task. The eldest grandson of the Jin Dynasty is also too young. And my dynasty has always placed emphasis on civility and defiance of military affairs. Most of the older generations are civil officials, with old arms and legs. I can't get up. This candidate is really difficult to choose."
The emperor sighed, "In the golden autumn scientific expedition, we had to choose the pillars of the country. However, there was an accident in Yanbei, but now the western region has revived troops. Lack of manpower." After the words fell, he asked, "Is there no suitable person to go to the east?"
The prime minister hesitated for a moment, and said to the emperor, "The emperor, the old minister invites Chen, it is better to let the dog go to the east."
The emperor looked at Prime Minister Sun and shook his head and said, "The Eastern Realm is sinister and is no longer under the control of the court. How can you be willing to let him go to the Eastern Realm with such a son? If he is as good as Xu Yunchu's martial arts, I will allow it. But he has talents, but he is not familiar with martial arts. He went to the East, and I was not at ease. If something happens, the court will lose a talented person."
The prime minister said, "Now that Young Master Feng is still in the East, if the dog goes, please inform Young Master Feng in advance and protect him secretly. If you send more palace guards to follow, it shouldn't be..."
Wang Lu interrupted the prime minister and shook his head, "If you recommend your son to the East, you might as well recommend my grandson. Su Qing has been recovering from his injury for a few days, and even if he is not healed, he should have recovered somewhat. It is martial arts, Qiu Fengshan suffered a big loss, the so-called eating a ditch and gaining wisdom. It is appropriate for him to go to the East."
The prime minister said, "Such a serious injury, almost half-life, in a short period of time, how can we be good?"
Wang Lu said, "First call him back to the capital to see how good his injury is. It is also feasible to go to the east by imperial mission and delay for a few days before setting off. Although he is injured, he is not a weak scholar without the power to bind a chicken. After a loss, I know how to protect myself."
The emperor nodded when he heard the words, and agreed, "In this way, Su Qing is indeed the best candidate." When the words fell, he decided to say, "Summon Su Qing back to Beijing first."
Wang Lu nodded.
Therefore, the emperor immediately ordered Koizumi to pass the decree and send people to Lingyun Temple to recall Su Qing.
In the past few days, Su Qing was in Lingyun Temple while healed while waiting for Su Fengnuan’s reply. Listening to the bells of the ancient temple and the sound of wooden fish, he reflected on why he planted such a big somersault when handling the case in Hejian. It still comes from being too arrogant and careless. Never expected that in broad daylight, the people behind it would be so bold.
Now he knows very well that today's internal and external troubles are no longer a peaceful and prosperous age, so we should be careful everywhere.
In the past few days, Mrs. Su had eaten fast and recited the Buddha. In addition to burning three sticks of incense every day to bless the safety of General Su, Su Cheng, Su Yan, Su Feng Nuan, Ye Chang and others, she just stared at Su Qing to take good care of her injuries.
Master Lingyun never continued to retreat, taking care of Su Qing's injuries every day, and Su Qing's injuries recovered quickly.
Su Qingzhong's poisoned arrow was different from the internal palm injury that Ye Chang suffered. Although his life was thrilling when hitting the arrow, it was easier to raise than internal injury.
On this day, Mrs. Su was saying to Su Qing, "Your injury is healed quickly. In a few days, should we return to the city?"
Su Qing said, "It's not too late to go back after receiving the letter from the little girl."
Mrs. Su complained to him, "Your sister will definitely not touch the ground in Yanbei, but you still trouble her with such a small matter, you are really..."
Su Qing was speechless, "Mother, how can this be a trivial matter? If you have a princess and daughter-in-law like that, and stay at home all day long, wouldn't you have a headache?"
Mrs. Su was amused, "Princesses have princess mansions, I will not face each other every day."
Su Qing said immediately, "No wonder you are not afraid, that is, I am talking to you every day."
Madam Su smiled and said, "Didn't your grandfather say anything, what are you afraid of? You don't want to marry, Princess Shuya doesn't want to marry yet, the slaps of the queen dowager and the queen may not sound loud."
Su Qing mumbled, "If this matter is hanging, it might really fall on top of my head one day. Will our Su Mansion still resist the decree by then? With my father's loyalty, it must be impossible to do this. I still thought about it. It's a good way to avoid it."
Madam Su felt that there was some truth, so she stopped talking about him.
As soon as the two of them came to an end, someone was sent from the palace, and the emperor called Su Qing to return to Beijing immediately.
Su Qing tentatively asked the person who preached the decree, "Father-in-law, that...do you know that the emperor has called me back to Beijing, what's the matter?"
The person who preached the decree was naturally respectful and respectful to the people in the Su Mansion, and he would answer any questions. "Go back to the third son, and the specific slave doesn't know. Just listened to Koizumi's father-in-law, saying that if the third son is asking, just say The emperor chose to go to the east to visit the king of Xiangjun. Lord Wang recommended you to the third son."
When Su Qing heard this, he immediately let go of his heart, as long as it is not the imperial decree, he is not afraid.
Ever since I found the Buddhist beads that were said to be the Xiangjun King in Qiufeng Mountain, he also remembered this account to the Xiangjun King, and wanted to meet him. Now it's natural to go to the east.
Madam Su naturally knew about the Xiangjun king’s secretly conspiring. Although she was worried about Su Qing, she thought that since she was recommended by her father, she must have considered. She quickly thanked him for the fairness of the decree, packed her bags, and said goodbye to Ling. Master Yun, and Su Qing set off immediately back to the capital.
