Chapter 293 Trust and Game

Qin Mubai looked at their backs and not only did not get angry, but laughed.

"Sanlang, your cultivation is getting better and better." Qin Shubao said angrily behind his back, "According to my temper, I will first severely punish this group of bold and rude offenders according to the military order!"

"Father, why be angry?" Qin Mubai smiled and walked to Qin Shubao and said, "These crazy people are not enough, and it is not worth being angry with them. The child has his own gully in his chest, and he is planning a long-term plan. The Xue brothers and others are short-sighted and eager to make contributions, just like gamblers. They just want to win and leave. If they can get three or five hundred heads for the time being, they will be satisfied enough to go back and ask His Majesty for credit. This is nothing more than their idea and the original intention that they don't want to farm.

"That's right." Qin Shubao nodded and said, "Brother Xue, military achievements have been in the limelight in recent years, and they are used to charging and killing the enemy. As generals, only when they go to battle and kill the enemy can they have the opportunity to make achievements and get promoted and make a fortune. This is an important starting point for generals to be belligerent, not to mention that we in the Tang Dynasty attach great importance to military merit. When he came to Lanzhou this time, the Xue brothers were full of heart and wanted to do a big job, and then left. They are not interested in the long-term plan of Tuntian and Yangsangtu, which is seriously inconsistent with their original intention.

"The child had expected it in advance, and as soon as the new policy was promulgated, it was bound to encounter endless resistance. As soon as new things are introduced, they will always face the intervention and obstacles of many old things. That's not surprising." Qin Mubai smiled faintly and said, "They impeached me, so let them participate!" However, the military order is a military order. As long as the court does not dismiss me for a day, they must implement the decree I issued. If there is any violation, the child must be strictly punished in accordance with the military law! However, children will not do this unless they have to. After all, the Xue brothers are rare generals who can be used to war. If we fight back in our nest, it is tantamount to breaking our arms, and we will only benefit from the Tubo people!"

"Well, good!" Qin Shubao smiled happily, stood up and patted Qin Mubai on the shoulder and said, "No humble nor arrogant, there is evidence; soft and hard, first courtesy and then soldiers, neither weak nor reckless, very good, for the general, it should be like this! Sanlang, I haven't seen you for a year, and you have made a lot of progress. Even as a father, he will sigh to himself. It seems that you have learned a lot from your trip to Xiangzhou.

Qin Mubai smiled and replied, "Father is flattered. At present, our top priority is to use the army to take the lead, help and encourage the states and counties under the rule of Lanzhou, and make every effort to develop spring ploughing production. The child just discussed the iron ore with Xiao Liang and others in the Assassin's House in Lanzhou. It is agreed that the production of military weapons and harnesses should be stopped and all efforts should be made to produce agricultural tools. Moreover, when he sent a fast horse to the court, he urged the seeds of spring ploughing. The child brought some when he came, but it was obviously not enough.

"Good! If you want to do something, feel free to do it! For my father's old bones, I will be your backing! If the Xue brothers and others dare to disobey the military order rudely, I will no longer be polite to them!" Qin Shubao laughed loudly, and the arrogance of the peak martial artist appeared on his face again. He said coldly, "It seems that they are doubting that Qin Qiong is old. Can he still eat?"

A few days later, two 600-mile urgent chapters were handed over to Li Shimin's imperial case.

One is the chapter of Xue Wanjun, the general of the army on the front line of Yancheng, who invited the generals of the front line to jointly impeach Qin Mubai; the other is the chapter of Qin Mubai from the governor's office of Lanzhou, asking for the seeds of spring ploughing.

At this time, Fang Xuanling was beside him. When he saw Li Shimin holding these two memorials, he smiled.

"Why is Your Majesty laughing?" Fang Xuanling asked puzzledly, "The generals on the front line are at peace, but it's a taboo for soldiers!"

"Xuan Ling, come and have a look!" Li Shimin took the memorial to Fang Xuanling with a smile and said, "This is really interesting. Xue Wanjun wanted to impeach Qin Mubai, but Qin Mubai didn't mention the matter, as long as he asked me for the seeds of agricultural tools. The subordinates have a conflict. What is Shubao doing? I haven't seen him say a few words.

Fang Xuanling took the memorial and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "So it is! It seems that the father and son of the Qin family are confident and do not worry about the rebellion of the Xue brothers.

"It's true." Li Shimin smiled and said, "These Xue brothers, the battlefield tigers, know nothing about political affairs. They can be brave, but they don't know my long-term plan. In this way, Qin Mubai, the weak-minded son, knows it in general. I can imagine how to embarrass him according to the temper of the Xue brothers, but he didn't mention a word. Xuanling has such a mind and temperament at a young age. He knows that everything is based on the overall situation, but he is not a minister of society? Shubao doesn't live up to me. Before such an incident was a contradiction, he took out the mind of a general, neither favoring his son nor rushing to complain or explaining to me. In this way, he is also confident and confident to deal with the internal contradictions of these army generals.

"Indeed." Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, put the memorial back on the imperial case, and said, "It seems that your majesty has a solution to deal with it?"

"Since Shubao can control the Xue brothers, why should I do this to make him difficult? I should also actively maintain the prestige of the generals on the front line. Li Shimin smiled slightly and began to reply with a pen. After the approval, I took a look at Fang Xuanling.

After reading it, Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Your Majesty is smart."

"Haha!" Li Shimin laughed a few times and said, "Let's wait and see! I'm looking forward to Qin Mubai's performance in Lanzhou!"

A few days later, in the governor's office of Lanzhou.

The imperial edict was issued to allow all requests from Qin Mubai. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household have begun to be busy, preparing to bring a large number of seeds and animals to Lanzhou to help wasteland production. And the Governor of Lanzhou is allowed to act cheaply and use iron ore and salt ore.

In the imperial edict, there is no mention of the contradiction between the Xue brothers and the Qin family.

Qin Shubao and Qin Mubai took the order and laughed together, which was quite happy. Since the emperor has made such an approval, he means that he supports a series of new policies promoted by Qin Mubai!

That's enough! No matter how unconvinced the Xue brothers are, they can only honestly live in the field to raise mulberry!

At the same time, another imperial edict, together with the reward of a large amount of gold and silver silk, also reached the barracks on the front line of Shangcheng. The emperor commended Xue Wan's people for their hard work and achievements, and specially gave gold, silver, silk, silk and other things to comfort the award. Similarly, there is no mention of their proposal to impeach Qin Mubai!

Xue Wan can wonder: What does the emperor mean? I impeached Qin Mubai, but he gave me a reward?!

Unbe puzzled, he called all his generals to discuss and think about it together.

It is often said that the three stinky cobblers were against Zhuge Liang, and everyone really came up with a reasonable explanation: the emperor neither dismissed Qin Mubai nor scolded Xue Wanjun. The implication is that he supported Qin Mubai to implement the new policy in Lanzhou. The reason why he did not explicitly reject Xue Wanjun's impeachment is that he only takes his face into account. At the same time, he says that he does not want their contradictions with the Qin family and his son to expand, and everything is based on the overall situation. That gold and silver silk is not so much a reward as a consolation as a consolation. The meaning is nothing more than - don't make any comments, you'd better follow Tuntian to raise mulberry! What's wrong with you? Look at the money! If you want to fight to kill the enemy and make contributions for the country, isn't it just a reward? I have already given it. Should I be satisfied?

After breaking the emperor's intention, Xue Wanjun completely lost his temper. It seems that the reason why Qin Mubai, a boy, dares to act so recklessly is that the emperor has his backing for him, not because he is the general of the governor and asked him to pick up a cheap official to do it!

Come on, it doesn't matter who we have conflicts with. Don't quarrel with the emperor - go to Tuntian to raise mulberry!

As a result, the spring ploughing activities in the area of Yancheng and Liangzhou, which had been passively lazy before, also began.

Shancheng, Liangzhou and Lanzhou form an iron triangle in the area of the Datang River. The hinterland is the alluvial plain of the Yellow River. There are many fertile soils, which are indeed conducive to Tuntian and animal husbandry. However, before, the work in Yancheng and Liangzhou has not cooperated, and the progress of Tuntian has been slow. Now, all three o'clock are on the rise. The spring ploughing under the governor's office of Lanzhou is in full swing!

With 50,000 troops, each soldier can be a tough labor force. Coupled with the strict discipline and organization of the army, farming is much more efficient than ordinary people.

Qin Mubai, together with his father, visited many states and counties under Lanzhou for a period of time and personally urged spring ploughing production in various places. Seeing that the situation was gratifying, Qin Shubao was very relieved and said to Qin Mubai, "Sanlang, you still have the ability!" If you don't come, you won't be interested in promoting the method of farmland for your father. Moreover, when the Xue brothers came to force the palace before, if you hadn't come out to mediate, your father might have taken them to justice, and the contradictions would have been stimulated. It seems that you have lived for your father for more than 50 years, and this way of governance is not as good as you.

"Father is too modest." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Actually, this is a big plan that the emperor has already made before leaving Beijing, and the child is just implementing it. The Xue brothers and others were ignorant of current affairs, and actually dared to provoke the palace. Don't know, they are not provoking me, but the emperor. If it hadn't been for the emperor's broad-mindedness and the overall situation, they would not have known what the situation was at this moment.

"Father, I finally understand why His Majesty sent you here." Qin Shubao smiled cheerfully and said, "You know the overall situation and government affairs better than me. It seems that my husband's name is the commander-in-chief, and the one who actually controls Lanzhou's big plan is you. It won't take a few years for me to grow old. At that time, the lord of Lanzhou must be you! The emperor's arrangement is exquisite!"
