The Reborn Lady is Farming

   But is this easier said than done?

  Although the Western Xia army retreated a bit, there were still many left behind to guard the already captured cities, and with the rebels blooming everywhere, it can be said that the entire Great Zhou was in the midst of war.

  General Yuan was worried about the country and the people and lamented the weakening of the country's fortunes, but the emperor was very happy. He didn't expect that Qi Xiuyuan's strategy would really work, so that their manpower would be freed up.

   Almost immediately, the emperor ordered General Yuan to transfer another half of his staff to Qi Xiuyuan, and let Qi Xiuyuan personally lead the troops to rehabilitate.

   General Yuan raised his brows, feeling that this was too risky, and there were too few people left at the border.

Qi Xiuyuan also frowned. His roots are in Xingzhou Mansion, Hanzhong Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion. If he leads his troops away, then the three mansions will be guarded by General Yuan's guards. Wouldn't he put his rear in General Yuan's eyelids? under the child?

Therefore, when General Yuan submitted a letter to argue with reason, Qi Xiuyuan also submitted a letter. At this time, Emperor Jingyan did not want to get into trouble with the two of them, so he was very tolerant to them. The number of people transferred by the general was reduced by half, and Qi Xiuyuan could also leave half of the people to guard Jingzhao Mansion, and the rest would be brought back to suppress the rebellion.

   General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan agreed and began to order troops.

   At this time, Qi Haoran had already acquired more than ten counties in the south, and the progress was not slow. Emperor Qi Haoran was very satisfied, because he was not as perfunctory as other generals, and worked very hard to recover the city.

The emperor was about to praise him and promote him, which could be considered to appease Qi Xiuyuan. Who knew that he would turn his head and face the remaining Xixia army again. Qi Haoran took his army to attack the city occupied by Xixia directly. , madly biting the Xixia army and not letting go, and took back three county towns in just two days. When the emperor received the news, Qi Haoran was sending troops to besiege another county town.

   Emperor Jingyan was so angry that he fell backwards, Xixia had to retreat some of his troops due to the civil war, and the rest of the troops only defended the beaten city and did not attack any further.

   The strategy he and the ministers finally discussed was to quell the rebellion first, and then think about taking back the city occupied by Xixia, and then negotiate again.

  Since the Western Xia army is no longer attacking, what is Qi Haoran doing to provoke them? Isn't this a disaster for Da Zhou?

  Emperor Jingyan was so angry that he asked the messenger, "Why did Qi Haoran disobey the decree? I asked him to fight the bandits, not to fight the Xixia army. He can't even tell the difference between the bandits and the Hu people?"

   The messenger was only responsible for messengers, and almost all of them were running around on the road, so he really didn't know why General Qi would disobey the decree, so he could only hold quails with his head down.

However, the left servant of the household stumbled in, laying on the ground and crying: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, the Xixia army slaughtered Jiayuan County, and the entire county and the villages below were not spared. One hundred thousand people are gone, even the old man. Weak women and children have not been spared, Your Majesty—"

  Emperor Jingyan's complexion turned pale, he fell on the dragon chair, and asked in a dry voice, "Has this matter been resolved?"

   "Not yet, but I can't hide it, Jiayuan County is the outermost county seat occupied by Xixia..."

   "Your Majesty, this can explain why General Qi is at war with the Western Xia army at this time."

   "Qi Cangjing did nothing wrong in this matter. Your Majesty, if we don't respond to this matter, I'm afraid that the people will be chilled and it will be of no benefit to quelling the rebellion. Please forgive Qi Cangjing."

The Emperor    asked dryly, "What if Xixia attacks again?"

   His Highness was quiet, and Yan Du stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, will we not slaughter the city if we retreat from Xixia, and the people will be able to forgive the court?"

Emperor Jingyan remained silent. This is obviously impossible. If they don't fight back, the Xixia army will only intensify. The Han people under their rule will only be slaughtered at will, and the people of Da Zhou will only be more disappointed with the court when they see this. , the number of people joining the rebels will only be more, it is simply an endless loop.

   But when they sent troops, they would bring in Xixia, who had already stopped the war. Da Zhou was still facing the enemy, and Emperor Jingyan showed a bitter smile.

  These damned Western Xia barbarians, obviously the situation is improving, why should they massacre the city?

   "Qin Prime Minister has been in Xixia all the time, why hasn't he heard the sound? Is it possible that Qin Prime Minister didn't notice anything about such a big event as the massacre of the city?"

When it comes to Qin Xiang, everyone is angry at the same time. It is really that Qin Xiang is too good at hiding. Since he went to Xixia to negotiate, some news of progress can be returned at first, but more than half a year has passed, and people are still staying in Xixia, and the news is also According to the legend, but it is all nonsense at all, and more and more people in the DPRK are dissatisfied with him.

  The emperor also frowned slightly, and was also dissatisfied with Qin Xiang. He originally wanted Qin Xiang to negotiate with Xi Xia and then negotiate, but he did not expect that there was no progress on his side. In the end, it was Qi Xiuyuan's strategy to let Xi Xia take a step back.

  The emperor lowered his eyes and decisively ordered Shen to appoint Qin Xiang.

   After slaughtering the city, the Prime Minister of Qin had undoubtedly put the responsibility on him. The courtiers with a flexible mind felt a little cold, while those who didn't take this into consideration were simply indignant.

   Yan Du retreated with the ministers. He stood on the steps and looked at the ministers hurriedly coming and going, then turned to look at their office, and sighed.

   When he went back, he told Yan Fu, "I want to resign for my father."

   Yan Fu was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm afraid the emperor will not allow it."

Yan Du nodded, "So I planned to get sick for my father. Your grandfather was his teacher, and he pushed him to that position with one hand, and ended up in such a situation. You should have heard about the incident in the Chongzheng Hall today, and Qin Xiang assisted him. In the past two decades, it was launched without much thought.”

   So my father has a cold heart for the emperor?

  Yan Fu did not persuade him. It is not certain whether Da Zhou can keep it or not. Anyway, he has long been desperate for this country and this monarch.

  As soon as the massacre of the Western Xia city spread, the people's violent reaction was not expected by Emperor Jingyan and his courtiers. Taking advantage of this, rebels from all over the world became kings one after another.

   And most of the poor people who suffered from the war and chaos directly brought their families to find a government nearby and joined the army. Anyway, being a Dazhou person is also dead. If you don’t become a Dazhou person, you may live two more days.

The    rebellion reached a new high.

The rest of the people remembered this character after Emperor Jingyan's imperial decree to Qin Xiangshen came out, so a vigorous Qingjun side movement appeared, shouting to execute Qin Xiang, a traitor, and the people were almost blocked by the avenue leading to the palace. .

Lin'an City, which has always been quiet and stable, has also become a little chaotic. At this time, the advantage of having the Imperial Army guarding outside the mansion has come. At least when listening to the noise outside, Mu Yangling is not at all afraid of a short-sighted collision. Qifu.
