To Rule in a Turbulent World

Chapter 283 Volume 5 8 Sounds of Ganzhou

You Miao's nose was sour, and she wanted to laugh again. She looked and looked again, and took a deep breath. A voice said from behind, "Why are you so happy to watch?"

"It's nothing." You Miao folded the letter, saw that it was Zhao Chao, and replied: "Li Zhifeng learned from our letters, but he wrote them in a decent way, but the syntax is a little bit poor, and it's awkward and blunt, so it's funny."

Zhao Chao cast bait beside You Miao and said, "I'm going to let Li Zhifeng send troops."

You Miao nodded and said, "Are you going to attack the city?"

Zhao Chao hummed, and said, "Quick battle is better. Try to capture Da'an before the great cold. Spring will start next year, and there may be changes."

You Miao said: "There is still something that needs to be discussed in detail."

Zhao Chao said: "Come to the study later and chat with the ministers. I will go to see the queen first."

You Miao nodded, and Zhao Chao left. You Miao knew that Zhao Chao was actually focusing on two things. Qiao Rong was about to give birth, probably in the next few days. I hope everything goes well.

After Zhao Chao left, another person came over, and it was Lin Luoyang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment.

"My lord." Lin Luoyang said politely.

You Miao got up and returned the salute to Lin Luoyang. Lin Luoyang hesitated to speak, with a complicated expression on his face. You Miao immediately guessed the inside story, and asked without waiting for him, "How are Li Yan and Pingxi's family?"

"The imperial guards sent troops to guard the two mansions." Lin Luoyang said, "No one can get in. Pingxi's family has already fainted from crying, and they haven't seen his body yet. Let's see... how to solve it."

You Miao sighed and said: "Your Majesty hasn't spoken yet, and he hasn't mentioned this matter recently..."

"The Li family and the Tang family are related by marriage." Lin Luoyang said.

You Miao nodded knowingly, knowing that Li Yan's matter was too involved. The marriage between Li Yan and the Tang family was a marriage contract that was established when they were still in Beijing. Now that the Tang family in Jiangnan is at its peak, Zhao Chao should not be slaughtered. The whole Tang family.One person does things and one person is responsible. You Miao's greatest wish is to let Zhao Chao only question the person responsible for the crime, and not involve the young and old in the clan.

"Don't the Ping family and the Tang family know?" You Miao asked.

Lin Luoyang shook his head: "I don't know, I went to visit a few days ago, and saw that the Ping family was trembling and did not dare to leave the house. The whole family was crying in the mansion, Madam Ping asked me to beg you..."

"Creating chaos." You Miao murmured: "This crime cannot be pardoned, it depends on His Majesty's mood."

"The Ping family is hereditary." Lin Luoyang said: "General Ping has been an official for three generations, and he is also a general. He made great contributions to Tianqi in the past, and he also recommended Nie Dan. I didn't expect that now..."

You Miao sighed: "I can only try to demote the Ping family to common people, exile into the army, and serve as official prostitutes. You can intercept them first and go to the Jiaofang Division. I will try to use some money with you to keep the Ping family members." Innocent, wait until the limelight passes, and then set up a Zhuangzi in Yizhou to let them spend the rest of their lives."

Lin Luoyang breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "This method is excellent, I'm afraid that His Majesty..."

"I'll try it." You Miao said.

You Miao and Lin Luoyang separated, so they wanted to go out of the palace, go to Ping's house to have a look, and send someone back to the villa to get some calming medicine, and prepared a congratulatory gift for the little nephew, so they went straight to the backyard of the palace. But he was blocked by guards.

"Your Majesty has ordered." The guard said: "If Master You has nothing to do, don't leave the palace at will."

You Miao's expression changed immediately, and she asked, "What do you mean?"

The guard apologized and said nothing, You Miao said, "Where's Tang Hui?"

The guard said: "Master Tang guards Yangzhou, not in Mao County."

You Miao said: "It's unreasonable, I'm going out of the palace, can you still stop me?"

You Miao was about to rush out, and the guards outside the palace were alarmed. Many people blocked the way and saluted with fists together.

"Master Shenzhi." The guard said: "Don't make things difficult for the little ones."

You Miao and these guards have fought side by side, so it is naturally impossible to fight them. However, if the guards do not let her out of the palace, the matter will become serious. What does this mean?You Miao has stayed in the palace for several days, never even thinking about this level...

"Make it clear." You Miao said in a deep voice, "Did His Majesty tell you to watch me and not let me leave the palace?"

The guards didn't dare to make a sound anymore, You Miao took a step back, finally sensed the danger, turned around and left.

In the imperial study room, Zhao Chao was discussing matters with the ministers, and there was a sand table on the table. After You Miao arrived, he calmed down and pretended that nothing had happened. He glanced at the sand table, and it was a deduction of attacking Da'an.

"Tu Risheng is on the left wing, and Li Zhifeng is in the middle." Zhao Chao said, "Da'an is not like Yanbian. It was originally a military city, and relying on the siege of the city, it would take three years."

You Miao pulled out the flag and said, "The North City Gate is the weakest. When we entered Da'an, we had already investigated it, and some people robbed the North City Gate..."

"How to get in?" Xie Hui asked.

"From here." You Miao pointed to another mountain and said, "Wait until the first heavy snowfall comes in winter. The bigger the better, use the chariot to push the snowball towards the city wall. Forcibly attack the top of the city wall..."

The ministers studied it a bit, and finally had to admit that You Miao's strategy was the best. Now the siege of the city, erecting ladders, and bumping into trees caused too much damage to the soldiers.When the temperature drops, as long as water is poured on the city wall in Da'an City, an ice wall will form. The ice wall is extremely slippery and difficult to rely on. Only by stacking barriers and rushing up to the height of the city wall can there be a chance of victory.

The chariot pushes the snow close to the city wall, which can not only block arrows, but also form a gentle slope.

In the end, it was agreed that this plan should be the basis, and Tu Risheng and Li Zhifeng should respond flexibly.

You Miao really didn't think it was the right choice for Zhao Chao to come back at this time, but no one dared to say a word. Pingxi's family members were detained for the rebellion, Li Yan was imprisoned in the sky prison, and the clan members Waiting for death in long torment.

You Miao and Zhao Chao were left in the study, and You Miao sighed.

Zhao Chao looked up at You Miao and asked, "Are you still worried about Da'an?"

You Miao shook her head and said, "How does His Majesty plan to deal with the guilty minister of the rebellion?"

Zhao Chao's face was cloudy and uncertain. For many days, no one dared to mention this matter in front of Zhao Chao, for fear of offending the Emperor's Ni Lin, but You Miao had to say it.After all, even though Pingxi and Li Yan died with guilt, their clansmen didn't even know about it.

Lin Luoyang and Qin Shaonan were the only ones among the crowd who had been friends with You Miao back then, and they had reminded them veiledly, but You Miao also had excuses - there are excuses for killing the family, and there are excuses for saving their lives.

"Zhao Yu has already been buried in the ground." Zhao Chao said casually, "The night before last, I asked a few gangsters to take the body to the underground palace of the imperial mausoleum, and still give him a place."

You Miao nodded, and Zhao Chao smiled again: "During the autopsy, it was found that he became a eunuch. You said it was ridiculous."

You Miao shuddered, and asked, "Why?"

"Most likely he was eunuched by He Motie when he surrendered to Tatar." Zhao Chao said sarcastically, "The majestic emperor of a country has become an eunuch. Fighting outside, he returned home to seize power."

You Miao was speechless for a long while, and Zhao Chao also felt that his tone was too much, so he comforted him: "Fortunately, there are you and Tang Hui sitting in the town, so there is no trouble at all."

You Miao nodded and said, "I don't know what His Majesty plans to do with the Heing family?"

As soon as Zhao Chao heard it, he knew that You Miao wanted to intercede with the Ping family, and immediately changed his face. You Miao knew about the rebellion, the throne, the title... these are all his rebellious scales.After bumping and bumping all the way for so long, how could he not understand his temper?But the lives of the young and old of the Ping family are now tied to You Miao. If You Miao doesn't say anything, no one will mention it anymore.

"How do you want me to deal with it?" Zhao Chao said coldly.

You Miao bit the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me for your courage. Three generations of Ping family generals have made great contributions to Tianqi. When His Majesty entered Korea, only the old general Ping stood up and spoke for His Majesty..."

"Just say what you have to say." Zhao Chao said in a deep voice, "You want me to let the Ping family go?!"

You Miao was silent, and Zhao Chao said: "It's absolutely impossible! The matter of treason, in any dynasty, is a serious crime of copying and beheading! You Ziqian! You are not so naive as to think that you can let me let you go by saying a few words." The family of criminals who conspired to rebel!"

"Your Majesty!" You Miao said seriously: "The guilty minister Pingxi is dead, and the matter of the past has been completely resolved. From now on, Your Majesty will live forever, and the Dragon Court will be stable. Besides, no one from the Ping family has participated in the conspiracy. Your Majesty is here. Time will spread grace widely, and will appease all the officials in the court, with this mind, Your Majesty's country will not be afraid from now on..."

"Enough!" Zhao Chao said, "I can give you whatever you want, but this is the only thing that is absolutely impossible!"

Zhao Chao roared angrily, stepped forward and pressed his index finger against You Miao's collarbone, and said coldly: "Shut up if you are sensible! I didn't pursue your private meeting with Zhao Yu in Yizhou, and I trusted you..."

"That's why His Majesty put me under house arrest in the palace?" You Miao said suddenly, and Zhao Chao was at a loss for words.

You Miao bowed and said: "Your Majesty, please think carefully about what I said. After all, from now on, Your Majesty will no longer be invincible, and what happened in the past is no longer important. Although the rebellion has been suppressed, but now the people in the middle of the court Panicked, once Pingxi and Li Yan leave, I will have to rest and recuperate for a long time. The ministers are all afraid of your liquidation, so it is more important to show gentleness at this moment than to kill everyone..."

Zhao Chao turned around, You Miao stopped talking, exited the imperial study, and closed the door.
