Chapter 47, Chapter 47
Time flies.

From the very beginning, Tang Yan saw pigs and sheep howling, and he couldn't bear it. He would never eat the livestock he slaughtered with his own hands, so he was laughed at by Fan San for a long time.

Up to now, she raised the knife and dropped it, and she was able to give the livestock a happy time with precise knife skills.

No more psychological burden, eating delicious roasted whole lamb roast suckling pig.

Alas, trying to grow up faster in troubled times is really full of blood and tears.

The blood of little pigs and lambs, Tang Yan's own tears.

What is even more bloody and tearful is the battlefield of the new emperor's Northern Expedition.

In fact, the emperor chose to march north, and there was nothing wrong with the general direction.

Pushing the nomads back to the depths of the grassland and not daring to come out in a short period of time can give the country several years of development time.

It is a pity that the war lasted for more than a year, and almost exhausted the national treasury.

The confidant eunuch in charge of the rear, on the surface, did a good job, and did not let anyone divide the power belonging to the emperor.

But the problem is that this person is greedy for money and narrow-minded, making the court a mess.

In addition to man-made disasters, there are natural disasters.

After the army defeated and returned to the court, the floods and droughts that had been small and small became more and more serious.

People everywhere are hungry and displaced.

The people will starve to death if they don't have enough to eat, and they will naturally make trouble.

In several places, small groups of peasant rebels have emerged.

Less than a year after the end of the Northern Expedition, the army had to go out to quell the rebellion again, and there was no way to recuperate.

If this continues, the world will only become more and more chaotic.

Tang Yan is still developing silently, waiting for the situation to become chaotic again, other forces will fight a war of attrition with the court, and she will find the right time to emerge suddenly and forcefully conquer the world.

It's just that Tang Yan was thinking about the court, but the court was also thinking about her.

……

At the meeting.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair and listened to reports from various places about the cost of suppressing the rebellion. His brows became more and more deadly, and his voice was mixed with anger.

"What do local officials do? They can't do anything about the disaster, and they can't even control the rebellion! In a disaster year, the court should put all its energy on disaster relief! Instead of sending troops to suppress the rebellion time and time again, it is a waste of national power!"

The minister is listening below, thinking that if you had to go to the north, the national treasury would not be out of food to provide disaster relief. If the people are fed by the disaster relief, there will naturally be no rebellion, and there will be no need to send troops to quell the rebellion.

But I dare not say what is in my heart, everyone racked their brains to help the emperor find a way.

At this time, Prime Minister Zuo came out more and more.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan to destroy the rebel bandits without spending a single soldier."

The emperor immediately said: "Ai Qing, tell me in detail."

Prime Minister Zuo said: "All the soldiers of my court are brave. It is really overkill to conquer a group of mobs! It is better to gather some local forces that do not belong to the court, and let the local forces fight against these mobs. In this way, it will not cost our army a single soldier. , and can greatly save food and grass expenses.”

This idea sounds good, but the emperor's brow is still frowning.

The local forces in his heart that are not under the control of the court are the private soldiers raised by the big families.

In this era, the phrase "thousand-year-old family and century-old dynasty" is practiced.

The power of the major families should not be underestimated.

If the emperor wants to encroach on the interests of the family, the entire dynasty may be overthrown by the family. This is definitely more terrifying than a small peasant uprising.

Let the private soldiers of the aristocratic family fight against the peasant uprising, the emperor felt that it would be better to let the peasant uprising continue to make trouble.

Prime Minister Zuo can sit in this position, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, he continued.

"I think that many rebels don't really want to fight against the court. It's better to try to recruit some rebels, give them official positions, and let these people fight against other rebels."

The emperor's eyes lit up, and the plan was feasible.

At this time, the Taiwei in charge of military affairs also appeared more and more.

"According to Prime Minister Zuo's idea, I have thought of a very suitable local power."

"Speak!" The emperor stopped saying the polite words that Ai Qing asked, and was very straightforward.

The Taiwei replied: "A few years ago, the Jinshan Mansion has been reporting that there is a group of powerful bandits in the local area. Their stronghold is on the Wanshan Mountain. It is difficult to eliminate them. I want the imperial court to send troops to help."

This happened during the period of the previous emperor. At that time, the emperor was old and his main energy was focused on the next successor.In order to maintain stability, one more thing is worse than one less thing, so Jinshan Mansion's report was ignored.

Now when the Taiwei mentioned it, the new emperor also remembered these past events.

I heard Taiwei continue to say: "After these years of development, the bandits are getting bigger and bigger. Instead of letting them continue to develop, it is better to recruit this group of people with small profits."

When the emperor heard this, he was overjoyed.

What the rebels committed was a serious crime of treason, the kind that wanted to punish the nine tribes.

I really want to recruit the other party, but the other party really doesn't believe it.Besides, this kind of serious crime can be forgiven, which will lose the prestige of the court.

But bandits are different.

Although being a bandit is also a capital crime, compared with treason, the crime is much less serious.

Although the bandits murdered the people, most of them didn't want to and dared not to oppose the court.

This kind of ignorant bandit casually grants his head a small official position, and he is not grateful for Dade's hard work for the court.

Instead of recruiting rebels, it is really better to recruit bandits.

The emperor made a decision in court and sent people to Jinshan Mansion to recruit the Wanshan bandits!

……

On the second hill of Wanshan, the current level of prosperity here is only stronger than that of the main hill.

In the driving range.

Tang Yan, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, had finally grown in height.

The height of 1 meters is medium for men in this era, but it is definitely tall for women.

Tang Yan's skin was dark and yellow when he was a child, but now he can't put on sunscreen due to years of martial arts training, and his skin is still so dark.But it is no longer the unhealthy yellow with black, but wheat-colored skin, which looks very heroic.

At this time Tang Yan was wearing a suit of armor, with his hair tied up high, sitting on a tall maroon horse, holding a Fenglei Zhan as tall as a person, and his spirits were flying high.

Anyone who saw it couldn't help admiring, what a heroic boy!

Tang Yan in men's clothing is definitely handsome.

It's just that in this era, women regard whiteness and softness as beauty.

Tang Yan's facial features are tough and dark, if he regains his daughter's body, he will definitely not be a beauty.

Although everyone has a love for beauty.

But Tang Yan is so busy every day that he doesn't touch the ground, he has no time or conditions to take care of himself.In addition, this body is actually not hers anyway, and it will only be used for a few years, so it doesn't matter if it is beautiful or not.

She has been beautiful in modern times for 19 years, and she can concentrate on her career in this world.

Tang Yan is more interested in fighting than being ugly.

No, in some free time, she and Fan San rode horses with weapons, fighting sweat profusely, surrounded by soldiers watching the fun.

"it is good!"

"The master is very skilled!"

"Brother Fan, hook back!"

The onlookers kept shouting hello, and Tang Yan and Fan San fought more and more vigorously.

At this time, a person suddenly rushed in from the crowd and shouted.

"The head of the family! Go to the meeting hall!"
