"Are you done?"
Jia Hui came to Yang Hong and said coldly:
"You and I are both in charge of the army. Since Your Majesty asked me to mobilize the Jiangnan camp, I will not allow anyone under my command who disobeys the general's orders. I have been loyal and loyal for generations. After Ning Rong, even if I kill you, the emperor will not The responsibility lies with me."
"My last question is, will you accept this imperial edict or not?"
After asking, Jia Hui had already raised the Emperor's Sword in his hand. As long as Yang Hong dared to say no, it would dare to execute him on the spot.
With the three thousand rangers under his command, even if the generals at Molingguan rebelled, they would be defeated at worst.
Surrounded by the Ranger Battalion, the soldiers at Molingguan were still speaking harshly to the Ranger Battalion soldiers, not knowing that this was already a critical moment.
As long as Yang Hong opens his mouth, it can be war or peace, both in an instant.
"That's fine!"
Seeing Yang Hong's delay in answering, Jia Hui said no more.
He had to rush to Yangzhou, so there was no time to waste here. Thinking of this, he swung his sword towards Yang Hong.
"I'll take it!"
"I'll take it! I'll take it!"
At this time, Yang Hong felt that the edge of the sword had cut his neck.
If he hadn't raised his eyes to see Jia Hui's eyes full of murderous intent, he might have been dead before he could speak.
"Shuai Jia Qin, I'm convinced! I'm convinced! I'm willing to obey Commander Qin's orders!"
At this time, Yang Hong also figured out that he was a first-class son and Jia Hui was a second-class Zhenwu Bo.
His family background is not obvious, Jia Hui is from the founding line of the country, a famous eunuch, and a duke. Today, I temporarily take orders from him, which does not mean that I have betrayed the emperor.
"Hahaha, Admiral Yang said this a long time ago, why do we need to fight each other? I, the commander, just had the emperor's orders, and he couldn't help himself! I hope Admiral Yang will forgive me!"
Jia Hui was also very happy when he heard Yang Hong agreed. This way, I don't have to be trapped here, and I can rush to Yangzhou as soon as possible!
"Admiral Yang, get up quickly!"
He pulled Yang Hong up from the ground, and then handed the imperial decree into Yang Hong's hands.
"Wang Min, let the Ranger Camp disperse. Now we are all a family and there is no need to fight tit for tat anymore!"
"Yang Hong, summon all the battalion generals and guerrilla generals to enter the account. I have military orders to convey!"
Seeing Jia Hui changing his face so quickly, Yang Hong was completely convinced.
Today, Jia Hui is only seventeen years old, but he is so brave and resourceful. Being under his account today, there is no doubt that we will still have a friendship in the future.
"The general will finally meet Qin Shuai!"
After Yang Hong's explanation, the other two generals and a guerrilla who surrounded Jia Hui also understood the situation at this time, and then came to the military tent with Yang Hong and Zhuo Yuan.
"Excuse me, generals! Please sit down!"
Jia Hui sat on the handsome desk. After everyone sat down, he said:
"Today, according to His Majesty's order, I will strictly investigate the private salt and salt merchants' resistance to tax in Jiangnan. During this period, I am afraid that there will be many places that need your help from the generals. I hope that the generals can help you!"
Seeing the abnormal expressions on many people's faces, Jia Hui continued:
"Of course, Your Majesty also knows that salt merchants are good at taking advantage of situations. It is impossible for you generals to accept the salt merchants' filial piety and act as their protective umbrella!"
"Qin Shuai..."
Yang Hong wanted to say something, but Jia Hui raised his hand and interrupted him.
"You don't have to worry about this matter implicating yourself. When I came, His Majesty had already explained that even if you accept bribes from salt merchants, the court will not pursue him! You can rest assured!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone began to feel relieved.
"but......"
Jia Hui's words made the generals' hearts get excited again.
"This time, An Chengren, the transshipment officer of the Jiangnan Salt Transportation Department, colluded with salt merchants to secretly sell private salt in an attempt to exchange official salt with private salt. This is something the court cannot tolerate. If any of you are involved in this matter, please speak out now , I will keep you safe, if I find out about you in the future, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, Jia Hui looked at everyone and asked:
"Is there anyone involved in this?"
When the generals heard this, their expressions became serious. After a while, one of the generals stood up and knelt on the ground, saying to Jia Hui:
"I report to the Commander-in-Chief that I inspected Suzhou three months ago and found a group of men in Zhenze, south of Taihu Lake. I wanted to investigate in detail, but was stopped by Suzhou salt merchant Wang Qin. He gave me three thousand taels of silver. , the general left!"
"The general is finally aware of his crime, please let the commander in chief deal with it!"
"Hahaha! Since the commander-in-chief has said in advance that he will not be held accountable, Su Guerrilla should stop talking about how to deal with it or not!"
"In that case, I order you to go to Taihu Lake again to find out the clues. If there is someone who is secretly collecting salt, you can wipe it out! After the incident is completed, I will mark your contribution!"
"Xie Qinshuai!"
Su Yi thought he would be punished, but he didn't expect that not only was he not punished, but he also got an errand, and he couldn't help but start to feel happy.
The other generals began to feel relieved when they saw that Jia Hui did not pursue the previous matter.
"Yang Hong, please quickly contact the generals at Dasheng Pass and Xijiangkou and inform them of this matter. If you find something, I will still take credit for it!"
"Zhuo Yuan, lead a battalion of soldiers and horses and follow me to Yangzhou!"
"The rest of the generals are waiting for my commander's orders and prepare to arrest the salt merchants from various prefectures!"
"promise!"
As Jia Hui issued military orders, the generals also began to get busy.
The Jiangnan camp was located in the hinterland of Da Chu, and there was no chance to make meritorious deeds. Now that Jia Hui came, everyone was excited.
After explaining the matters, Jia Hui also began to reorganize his troops and return to Yangzhou.
At the same time, Lin Ruhai, who was in Yangzhou, also received a message from Jia Hui, telling him that he was moving troops in Jinling and asked him to protect the evidence he had found before.
Lin Ruhai also became excited when he saw that the court finally sent someone to investigate.
If the imperial court doesn't take action, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on any longer.
"Is there any happy event for daddy? Why are you so happy to be back today?"
In the backyard of Lin Mansion, looking at Lin Ruhai who was in high spirits, Daiyu couldn't help but ask doubtfully.
"Really? Is it so obvious?"
After hearing her daughter's words, Lin Ruhai quickly straightened her expression.
"Although daddy is not smiling, he is much stronger than when he was frowning before. Isn't it obvious enough?"
"Hahaha, Yu'er is right. Something good did happen. If your mother knew about it, I'm afraid she would also be happy."
Seeing Lin Ruhai say this, Daiyu couldn't help but become more curious, and quickly pulled Lin Ruhai and asked:
"Dad, what's going on?"
"Hahaha, please let me know for a moment, let's go talk to your mother together!"
Thinking of his wife, Lin Ruhai's eyes flashed with sadness, but he was afraid of affecting his daughter and quickly disappeared.
Thinking of her mother, Daiyu's mood became bad, but now that she had something to make her mother happy, Daiyu quickly pulled Lin Ruhai towards the main courtyard.
"Mom! Mom! Daddy said something good happened to me today. As long as mom listens to it, she will feel happy too!"
Before anyone arrived, Daiyu's voice had already reached Jia Min's ears. Just as he was about to get up, he saw Daiyu already coming into the room.
Seeing this, Jia Min quickly winked at the maid, who quickly put away a blood-stained handkerchief.
"Mom, what is this!"
Seeing the maid's movements, Daiyu seemed to have guessed it, but she still pretended to be calm and asked.
"It's okay. Mom said, the smell of medicine here is strong. You are in good health, so don't come here. Have you reviewed the knowledge taught by sir?"
In order to avoid Daiyu becoming suspicious, Jia Min quickly spoke one after another, drawing Daiyu's attention elsewhere.
