Chapter 1391: Secret letter (6000) _2
In the Xu family, no one dared to claim second place in her ability to fight in the Xu family. She had always been in an invincible state.
Xu lingyue said softly, ”
“Mother, eldest brother is free and uninhibited and is not suitable to marry a Princess. It is better not to be the Prince Consort. I’ve seen those two princesses before, and they’re not a good match for big brother.”
Leena raised her head and munched on her rice, mumbling, ”
“I think Xu ningyan and the princesses are a good match.”
Xu lingyue was silent for a moment, then looked at the little boy and said in a soft voice, ”
“Mother, lingying is fine like this. She practices with Lina every day. The master and disciple are happy and carefree.”
Lina laughed arrogantly. Then, she realized that the Xu family’s matriarch’s gaze towards her had become more guarded and hostile.
Yes, it was this stupid girl who led my lingying astray … His aunt gritted her teeth.
Leena: “??? ”
Xu niannian put down his chopsticks, took a sip of the chicken soup, and said, ”
“Recently, the martial artists of the pugilistic world have gathered the refugees and become bandits. As a result, the bandit problem in various regions became serious, and some of the mountain bandits had already threatened the county city.
“Chief advisor Wang asked me if I have any good ideas, and I’m worried about this.”
His aunt said with confidence, “”Let ningyan annihilate them.”
“The Central Plains is so big. Do you want ningyan to die of exhaustion?” besides, ” second uncle Xu said, ” he … He’s still watching us like a tiger watching its prey.
He was referring to his big brother, Xu Pingfeng.
“Can you recruit him?” Xu lingyue was well-educated and had always been very well educated.
“Amnesty enlistment can only be used in normal times. Bandits are mostly made up of refugees. We can enlist a portion, but not all. At the end of the day, it was still because they didn’t have enough money. If we had enough money and food, the disaster would have been under control.”
Xu Erlang shook his head.
The problems left behind by the previous emperor Yuan jing had all erupted in this cold disaster.
Second uncle was a soldier and knew the market well. He looked at his aunt and said,
“Fine, don’t let lingying read and write. Let her join the army. Maybe in three to five years, I’ll return to you with the title of Marquis of ten thousand households and bring honor to my ancestors, making you the wife of the deceased.”
Xuxu was so angry that she almost wanted to fight with her husband. She felt that in this family, her concept of raising children was the most normal.
Only she would not abandon or give up on Ling Ying.
Second uncle Xu saw that his wife was unconvinced, so he asked the little bean, ”
“Lingying, what would you do if someone tried to bully you?”
“Fight back!” The little bean said confidently.
“What if I can’t win?” Second uncle Xu said.
then I’ll be friends with them. They won’t bully me, ” Xu linging said after some thought.
[ kid, you don’t have enough awareness. If you lose the war, you’ll most likely become. traitor … ] Second uncle Xu said in his heart.
After the meal, Xu Erlang returned to the study with a heavy heart.
He lit the candle, leaned back in his chair, and began to think.
As a scholar, whenever he encountered a problem, the first thing he would think of was to refer to history books.
He could learn from the experiences of his ancestors.
“In the history books, the various dynasties used only two methods to deal with the chaos at the end of the period. Most of the time, they adopted the attitude of exterminating, because at the end of each dynasty, the conflicts between the Imperial court and the people had reached the point where they had to be resolved through war.
“The premise of Amnesty enlistment is to have money and food, and to give up a portion of the benefits. The Imperial court could use Amnesty to resolve a portion of the bandit problem, but it could not resolve all of it.
“If we could do this, there wouldn’t be such chaos today.”
Xu Erlang used his powerful memory to analyze and recall the contents of the history books. The first conclusion he came to was:
The current Da Feng had not yet reached the end of its rope, and was different from the decay of most dynasties at the end of their reign.
It wasn’t rotten enough.
This was a good thing.
“At this time, if the rebels in Yunzhou start a rebellion, they will be the last straw that breaks the camel’s back. How can we solve the bandit problem?”
The more Xu niannian thought about it, the more confused he felt. The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.
He finally understood why chief advisor Wang’s health was getting worse and worse, to the point that even medicinal stones were not effective.
In the end, he was both mentally and physically exhausted, and he was sick from overwork.
At this moment, the words that Ling Ying had said suddenly flashed through his mind.
It was as if a ray of light had struck his mind.
“Become friends, become friends …”
Xu niannian opened his bloodshot eyes, but he was extremely excited. He spread out the rice paper, ground it, and wrote with a pen.
now that the disaster is serious, there are bandits everywhere. The Imperial court can use three strategies. The first is to recruit large scale mountain bandits and let the surrendered mountain bandits eliminate the other mountain bandits …
the second is to send troops to exterminate them. For the small motley crew, we must resolutely eliminate them and not leave any future trouble …
third, imitate the people of Jianghu and send experts to the people, gather the refugees, and occupy the mountains.
Lingying’s words inspired him.
Of course, it was impossible to gather all the refugees, but at least it could reduce the current burden on the Imperial court and greatly reduce the torment caused by the bandits to the common people.
Xu Erlang continued to write, ”
“We need to appoint a loyal and righteous man to take on this role. Those with bad reviews and reputation are not to be used;We need to keep his family members under close surveillance as hostages.”
After he finished writing, Xu Erlang began to think deeply, feeling that he was still lacking something. However, after he had lost his energy, he began to feel tired. He felt a little weak.
He turned his head to look at the water clock and realized that it was already half past midnight. He had actually been sitting at the desk for four hours.
Early in the morning.
Xu Qi ‘an got up early to wash up. Then, he spread out the map on the table. The destination of the merchant ship was Yuzhou.
