The flowers are blooming, and the green grass on the country road is as thick as smoke;
People are happy, and the sunset will come back to linger.
There was no time to appreciate it yesterday, but it has already arrived today. On the morning of May 26th in the Han calendar, the breeze was calm and everything was just right. Liaoxi Wenwu sat outside the dilapidated earthen house of the county magistrate outside Yangle County, with unstoppable smiles on everyone's faces.
Ten days have passed since the Wu Cijun rebellion was put down. Under Su Ran's instruction, the news spread quickly throughout western Liaoning, and the people of Liaoxi County were immersed in joy.
Ten days after the war, Su Ran led Wuci County Magistrate Li Yun, Liaoxi County Recorder Wang Kai, Fa Caoyu, Jue Caoyu and other officials to sort out the files, write a report, and quickly submit it to Gyeonggi and Bozhou Mu.
Mou Yu led his soldiers to tidy up the battlefield, bury corpses, count battle losses, and supervise surrendered troops.
Without the backstage, the Qiling Gang was like a bird losing its wings and a car losing both wheels. With the full help of Zhonglang General Mou Xiao, the county guard Su Daoyun quickly arrested the leader of the Qiling Gang, Ling Xiao, and more than a hundred people. It can be said to be smooth and smooth, without any ripples.
Yesterday, Su Ran and Mou Yu had a discussion and decided to meet with the civil and military officials of the six counties in western Liaoning today to discuss military and political affairs and handle all follow-up matters.
After Emperor Gaozu established the Han Empire, civil and military officials did not interfere with each other, and matters related to both parties were personally decided by Su Ran and Mou Yu. Therefore, today's meeting was a bit of a formality, just informing each other of the results.
Although the Liaoxi County Sheriff's Mansion is still dilapidated, the people in the mansion are all happy. They believe that after today, they will move back to the long-awaited County Sheriff's Mansion in the city. Everyone works together and works hard to govern. The little days of the people in Liaoxi Province are like this. It will also become more and more prosperous.
At Chen time, the breeze warmed the sun, and all the civil and military personnel of Qianshi and above in Liaoxi were present. Su Ran and Mou Yu sat facing east, with the big man respecting his right. Although Mou and Su were equals, out of courtesy and gratitude, Su Ran still Arranged to sit on the left side. This move actually made Mou Yu a little shy, and the murderous aura in his eyebrows that was reserved for military commanders also disappeared.
At the bottom of the steps, civil servants are on the left and Wu are on the right. In the first row of civil servants, the magistrates of the six counties are arranged in a row according to their seniority. In the second row, two scribes and a scribe from the county magistrate's office sit in the back and in the middle. Shu Zuo sat behind and to the left of Su Ran, preparing to take notes. In the first row of military attaches, Zhonglang General Mou Xiao, Yang Quan, Zou Quan, Zhongjun Sima Shen Ni, Zhongjun Supervisor Ganzi, and Luoyue Camp Colonel Cheng Gang are sitting in the front row by name. In the back row are the captains under Lang General. six people.
Invited by Su Ran, Wei Kaihua, the captain of Longxiang, and Chen, the hero who killed Jin Zhao, and Liu Yi, who offered advice between the two armies, were present at the end. There are many civilized and martial arts people gathered in Xiaotuyuan, and all the heroes gathered together. Today’s meeting in Tuyuan will surely be passed down as a good story by future generations!
Although they belong to the same county, the civil and military affairs have different paths. Except for the two counties of Wuci and Wuning, which supply food, grass and baggage for the Wuci and Wuning armies and have some contact with the Wuning army, the officials have almost no contact with them. Su Ran only said a few words such as "I rely on you to put an end to the chaos," "You have worked very hard these past few years," and "From now on, the people of Liaoxi will be healthy." Then he got straight to the point.
Today's discussion follows the principle of martial arts first and literature second.
Ganzi, the military supervisor of the Wuning Army, stood up first to report, and he said loudly, "Everyone, on May 15th, the Wuning Army took the festival, issued the imperial edict, and corrected the talisman, and together with Long Xiang's cavalry, all their elite troops came out to follow the moon. Gong, rushed to Wuci County in the early morning of the next day. After a day of fierce fighting, more than 5,000 enemies were wiped out, and seven out of 10,000 enemies were surrendered. Lequan led the remaining troops to flee to the west of Zhiniu Bridge. More than a thousand corpses were countless or drifted with the water. There were more than a thousand of them. The chief general of Wu Ci Army, Le Er, and the general of Zhonglang, Wei Jian, committed suicide. The general of Zhonglang, Sun Hui, surrendered. The commander of the Central Army, Sima Lequan, the Supervisor of the Chinese Army, Le Jia, the General's Office Officer, Li Qifeng, and the Chief of Guards, Le Kai, were among the school captains and above. Seven officials fled to Goguryeo. According to the secret report, Lequan and others had taken a boat to go north to the Qin Dynasty. In this battle, the Wuning and Longxiang armies suffered nearly 3,000 losses, which was a tragic victory. The material losses and losses are attached in a separate volume. Book, I won’t go into details here.”
After Ganzi reported the battle situation neatly, he returned to his original position.
Mou Yu then said, "Everyone, I, the general, and the governor of Su County have the holy will and the morale of the military. After careful consideration and deliberation, we have decided to submit a memorial to the general's palace as follows."
Everyone turned their attention to Mou Yu.
Mou Yu paused for a moment and said with great energy, "The first one is Wu Ci Army. Due to the needs of border defense, the designation of Wu Ci Army cannot be revoked. It is recommended that Your Majesty reorganize Wu Ci Army. During the reorganization, defense will be controlled by Wu Ning Army." And the Liaoxi County Guards are in charge, with the Wuning Army as the main force and the County Guards as the auxiliary, and the military supplies are shared by both parties."
"The second is to surrender troops and generals. After verification, if there are no violations of discipline and law, they will still serve in Wuci's army. Those who surrender voluntarily and have little impact can also stay in the army, but these people must be in order within three years. The salary will be reduced by half, and the property acquired in the Wu Ci Army will be handed over to the county government. Those who are extremely vicious or resist the prisoners will be dealt with severely. As for the scale of this severity, your Majesty's Holy Judgment is required."
"The third one is the war dead. The soldiers of the Wuning Army and the Longxiang Guard who died in the battle shall be registered in the General's Mansion in accordance with the "Han Law: Attacking Soldiers Chapter", and they will be compensated according to the law. Those who have many children in the family, I, the Wuning Army Additional compensation will also be provided. As for the deceased in the Wu Ci Army, most of them were retainers of Le Er's sworn party and many villains. I think those who have families should notify their families to claim the bodies, and those who have no families will be buried on the spot without compensation. "
After Mou Yu finished speaking, he looked around and said, "Fellow civil and military officials, do you have any questions or additions to these three articles?"
Everyone said in unison that they had no doubts.
Mou Yu turned sideways and nodded slightly to Su Ran. Su Ran suddenly knew what he meant. Seeing his skeletal body moving and his voice a little hoarse, he barely suppressed his excitement and said, "Everyone, the military battle is over. Please ask County Magistrate Li to play." I will briefly read the information reported to the Taiwei's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion for everyone to discuss."
Li Yun, the magistrate of Wuci County, stood up and said, "There is only one intention in reporting to the Taiwei Mansion. It is to list the crimes of Yue Er and others in detail, form a file, and ask the heavenly official to make a ruling so that the facts can be set straight."
Li Yun paused and then said, "The report to the Prime Minister's Office has four meanings. The first is to request that the seized property be distributed equally to the people in western Liaoning to make up for the suffering of the people for many years and to inspire people; the second is to ask for exemptions and exemptions Three years of taxation, balancing supply and demand, caring for the people, taking money from the people, and restoring people's livelihood; the third year is to ask for rewards for the elite soldiers of the Wuning Army, increase their wealth by adding titles, and after a few years, when they are rich, the Liaoxi County Governor's Office will also pay tribute to the heroes who died in the war. I send you my heartfelt wishes; the fourth is to severely punish the accomplices of the Qiling Gang's leader and the six helmsmen of the altar, all of whom are beheaded to appease the people's anger, and the subordinates are all sent to the Aizhou state and will never be repatriated."
After Li Yun finished speaking like he was pouring beans, he sat down with a comfortable look on his face.
After he finished speaking, the audience became cold for a while.
Suddenly, Li Yun burst out laughing. Seeing everyone in the room looking at him, Li Yun scratched his head in embarrassment. Afterwards, Su Ran and the civil and military officials present all held their hands and laughed, their laughter shaking the sky.
This smile revealed all the joys and sorrows of these years.
Lovesickness day and night finally comes true, and the clouds clear up to see the sunrise. It’s worth a smile!
When the atmosphere calmed down a bit, Su Ran coughed slightly, rolled up his sleeves and stood up. He and other civil servants walked to Liu Yi and the deceased Chen who were sitting at the last table. They bowed together and said, "If you don't change your mind despite the storm, you will never change your mind." The sound of the Chao Dynasty is like a roaring sea. On behalf of the 40,000 people in western Liaoning, I would like to thank Jianghu for the chivalry and God for the gift of young men!"
At noon, a brocade horse was sent off by the people of western Liaoning, full of hope, and rushed to Chang'an City with three imperial edicts submitted to the capital!
...
Three days later, on May 29th, the red-feathered golden eagle with full wings flew from Lingyuan. It was unknown, but the two of them just said that they were returning in ten months.
On May 30th, in the Xihua Tower, the long-lost grandson Dongfang in the article embellished this tragic and joyous past in western Liaoning, and the drums fell and the music played, and the show began. Scenarios such as Jin Zhao's bribery, Le Er's rebellion, Da Lun's quest for cards, Su Ran's entry into the city, Long Xiang's camp, Luo Yue's night attack, Yang Quan's defense of the bridge, etc., all appeared one by one in the Xihua Tower. The elders in western Liaoning had mixed feelings when they heard the closing sentence. "Thieves also have a home but have not yet returned, but the cuckoo cries into their ears", which makes people sigh endlessly. In the tail of the tail, the increasingly playful Dongfang Yu did not forget to add, "That boy is so awesome."
On the second day of June, the rain and grass are luxuriant, and the wind willows blow the wheat seedlings. After all the Qiling Gang gangsters were captured, things happened here. Mou Xiao, who was only 16 years old, was about to lead his troops back to the Wuning military camp to report to his father Mou Yu. On the eve of his departure, he, who had always been aloof, paid a special visit to Liu Yi and quietly Liu Yi, Dongfang Yu, and Yi Xian were brought to the military camp, and the four of them took a sip, which was regarded as friendship between the younger generations.
Mou Xiao considers himself young and talented, unruly and unruly, and he only wanted to welcome his father by having a banquet today. Watching the figures of Liu Yi and the others staggering away, he remembered his father's words, "When you are at ease, make friends with talented people, and when you are in danger, come to help from all directions. This is the way of life and death, and the foundation of happiness and stability."
On the third day of the third year of junior high school, accompanied by Dongfang Yu, Xiao Yanliu showed off his white clothes and bald head against the scorching sun. He took his two beloved big yellow dogs and rushed to the already desolate Wuci battlefield.
As he grew older, he became more and more verbose. Along the way, Yi Xian kept mumbling stupidly, "Whenever sentient beings in Jambudvipa are thinking, they are all sins and all karma. Bodhisattvas are afraid of causes, and sentient beings are afraid of consequences. Those who plant their causes." , must eat its fruits; all dharmas are empty, cause and effect are not empty. I have understood Hinayana Buddhism, although I still don’t know the way, but my heart allows me to come, and I come.”
That's right, the young monk came to save the souls of the dead just like he did outside Zhangwu County that day.
On the fourth day of the lunar month, after Wu Cijun and the Qiling Gang had arranged everything, Su Ran moved the county governor's mansion back to Yangle County. He recounted the history, and when he was an official in the Tianping world, he even lost his mansion. Su Ran Ran is the number one person in ancient and modern times, and in the eyes of the people in western Liaoning, Su Ran is also the number one person in ancient and modern times.
In the past few days, Liu Yi has been serving Su Ran, learning government affairs and political experience. Compared with Fan Tingnan's loyalty and pragmatism, he prefers Mr. Su's hidden needles and forbearance, which is like a pine and a cypress. , which really caught Liu Yi's appetite.
Su Ran knew everything about Liu Yi, a young man with rare talent, handsome appearance and the "son of an old friend". He even told Liu Yi everything about the way to serve as an official, which was inconvenient to express clearly. This made Liu Yi While it greatly clarified his doubts, it also laid the foundation for his future political style.
In fact, in Su Ran's heart, there was still a secret that he had always buried deep in his heart. The emperor thought that everyone who knew about it was trapped in the Wencheng Pavilion, but he didn't know that there was another fish in western Liaoning that slipped through the net.
For this secret, Su Ran is willing to take a big gamble!
