Chapter 948 Chapter 948: Go to Mama (Part 2) [Ask for monthly votes]

 “There is no movement at Honglu Temple yet.”

Qi Shan also looked a little helpless.

Shen Tang raised his foot and kicked the table upright, and said in a sinister tone: “It seems that our neighbor also has his own thoughts.”

Qishan said: “Wu Zhaode is not mediocre.”

 When the overall situation in the northwest was just settled, Wu Xian certainly did not dare to offend Shen Tang or Kang Guo. But today is different from the past. The situation in Wu Zhaode’s Gao State has also stabilized, and it has smoothly passed through the most chaotic early stage of the regime. In terms of status, he and his family are both the masters of the same country. Gao Guo and Kang Guo are equal friends, rather than the former relying on the latter. There is really no reason to coward Shen Tang.

There is no guarantee that Wu Xian will not take this opportunity to test the Lord’s attitude and how much temper and confidence she has when the Northern Desert is eyeing her. A few years ago, Wu Xian didn’t have the nerve to do this kind of thing that takes advantage of others, but it’s different now.

 He is the leader of the country, not the leader of the warlords.

Shen Tang heard the hint of praying for good things clearly.

“If you are not mediocre, you will not be willing to be inferior to others all your life…Wu Zhaode, he needs to be dealt with. Let Honglu Temple keep an eye on it and see when Wu Xian is willing to reply.”

A mocking sneer appeared on Shen Tang’s lips. He turned around and vented his anger on the captured rebels, torturing them until they cried for their fathers and mothers. The Ministry of Punishment was under the command of Kang Shi. The laws were revised once a year and patched at any time, and the spirit of punishment was updated every year.

  No strong person can keep any secrets.

 They want to commit suicide? Hahaha, it’s best to commit suicide. Only in this way can you know what it means to be unable to live and unable to die!

 A few days later, the “Dingding” meeting was held.

Shen Tang ordered the disposal of 797 captured rebels and their private troops, 261 Beimo hidden stakes, and 2,112 persons involved and their families.

Nearly 80% of the rebels were beheaded, all hidden stakes were wiped out, and nearly 100 other personnel were beheaded. The remaining personnel were sentenced to prison terms ranging from three to 20 years, and relatives were sentenced to half of the penalty based on the severity of the case.

 The soil of the execution ground was soaked with blood, and the old bird became mute.

 It is said that more than half a month has passed and the strong smell of blood can still be smelled.

“Let’s send all the heads of these hidden piles to Beimo as commodities.” The forces lurking in Kunzhou in Beimo murdered her supervisory censor, and then colluded in Kunzhou to support the rebels to cause chaos. Shen Tang was in the hands of Holding the evidence, in this case, she still has to worry about the so-called overall situation, and bei moxu and the snake, just thinking about it, she wants to vomit, “these heads are worth a penny each!”

 Hand piles carefully cultivated in the Northern Desert?

 Hehe, it’s worth the price with her!

An official muttered in a low voice: “Where can I buy it in Beimo?”

At this time, someone among the generals sneered: “They are not willing to buy it? Then put these people’s heads in sepak takraw **** and give them to Zhechong Prefecture to teach martial arts fields, and play them as **** every day! If there are more heads, , then send sepak takraw as a national gift!”

Some officials kept silent while others peeked.

 Speaking, this man was born tall and strong.

 It is Tianxuanwei’s general, Gong Shuwu.

Most of the generals under Shen Tang’s command were from humble and poor backgrounds, and the most mysterious among them was Gong Shuwu. His qualifications are very deep, but his record is not outstanding, and his strength is not top-notch. He spends most of his time in the rear training troops. It is said that there are rumors in the Heyin area that Gong Shuwu is a general under the Spring God. Among the people, especially He has a very high reputation among farmers, and this person rarely appears in front of the battle.

 Despite this, he is still firmly at the top of the Tianxuan Guards, still has actual military power, and is a general who has been in charge of the border all year round.

Many officials were curious about this, but no matter how hard they and their family dug, they could not find out the details about Gong Shuwu. In the end, they came to the conclusion that Gong Shuwu must have been of low origin and unknown in his early years, so he was not known to outsiders. . Gong Shuwu’s low profile is reflected in all aspects. He occasionally returns to the royal capital to take turns, and he rarely speaks at court meetings. Xiumu also doesn’t like to go out to dinner parties and make friends.

There are a few people who are close, and all of them are veterans who follow their master to conquer the world. Gong Shuwu has good friendship with them.

Over time, people think he has no edges and corners.

 He has a gentle and honest temper and does not conflict with courtiers.

Never imagined-

An honest man in the eyes of hundreds of officials actually made such a perverted and **** statement, weaving the head of a Bei Mo dark pile into a sepak takraw ball and playing with it. How much hatred and resentment must there be? Several people who were close to Gong Shuwu couldn’t help but turn to the side and swallowed nervously.

 As we all know, Kang’s generals are divided into doves and hawks.

The hawks have been thinking about blowing Beimo’s head off all day long. They cry, make trouble and hang themselves at the gate of the Ministry of Household Affairs for military expenses. They line up to harass the weapons supervisor and are ready to mount their guns at any time! The doves unanimously believe that the hawks’ ideas are too conservative, and they just want to push it forward. In the past, Gong Shuwu was thought to be a hawk who was not easy to mess with, but now it seems that this guy is a dove with a solid foundation!

 Qishan pretended to cough to signal Gong Shuwu to restrain himself.

Gong Shuwu turned a blind eye to his hint.

Shen Tang who started the topic: “…”

 Actually, she felt that Gong Shuwu’s words were also filled with anger, and whether they were **** or not, the scale was acceptable. But she definitely can’t say such things. Later, there will be ignorant officials who will advise her to pay attention to her words and deeds and not to become like Zheng Qiao.

 Shen Tang chose to change the topic.

 Winked at Xun Zhen, the Minister of Household Affairs who was standing at the front.

 She saw that Xun Zhen had been holding a book in her hand.

I thought Xun Zhen was here to put out the fire, but I didn’t expect that he was here to add fuel to the fire. He targeted the Ministry of War as soon as he opened his mouth.

To be precise – it’s the hen that lays golden eggs in the Ministry of War, Postal Station!

 Jiang Sheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, and others from the Ministry of War: “???”

When they reacted, their facial features were distorted with anger.

Jiang Sheng clenched Chengquan’s palms under his official robe, resisting the urge to take action on the spot, and said in a faintly sinister tone: “Xun Shangshu, you are fighting with open fire, are you robbing?”

Hundred officials bowed their heads and murmured in their hearts.

Isn’t this robbery?

 Tobe, this iron rooster wants to take a bite of everything he sees.

Xun Shangshu wanted detailed accounts of the post office for civilian use, and believed that the revenue from the post post should be managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs, but the post post itself was within the scope of the Ministry of War’s responsibilities. Xun Zhen just wanted to steal the Ministry of War’s job.

Xun Zhen smiled and said, “You can’t say that.”

The post was established to facilitate communication between various places and strengthen the royal capital’s control over local areas. Wherever there was military information, it could be quickly conveyed through the post. However, compared with this purpose, the investment of the postal station is obviously greater than the income, and the cost performance is low.

 The Ministry of War often argued with Xun Zhen because of this.

The construction cost of each postal post is not expensive, but it cannot support the large number. Adding the later maintenance costs and the food of each postal postmaster, it adds up to an astronomical figure. In Xun Zhen’s view, the postal station was necessary to exist, but it was a gold-swallowing beast that could only be eaten out. In peacetime, the expenses and scale of post offices can be appropriately reduced, and the remaining budget can be invested in other places, such as city defense construction and troop training.

Jiang Sheng refused, the Post Network is related to the overall situation!

 He did not expect that Xun Zhen would be so short-sighted when it came to money.

 The two had many conflicts over this matter.

 Until Shen Tang gives a solution proposal.

It was this proposal that allowed the Gold Swallowing Beast Post, which could only be entered but not left, to achieve a counterattack in just two years. It not only provided a good place for retired soldiers, but also supported a large number of post employees. Most of these postmen are brave warriors or young and strong people. Once Kang State enters a state of war, they can rush to the front line.

They travel to various post offices all year round and maintain a relatively strong state. Their combat quality is not even worse than the elites of Zhechong Mansion.

Shen Tang proposed to convert the postal station into a dual-use military and civilian station.

 While maintaining military use, it also undertakes civilian projects.

ˆMaintain the operation of the postal post by collecting remuneration to prevent the postal post from being abandoned, allowing goods to be exchanged between the two places, and at the same time supporting more post workers to reduce the financial pressure on the Ministry of Household Affairs. At first, many officials were opposed to this. The postal station is provided to officials, how can it be used by the common people after taking the money? Are common people worthy? Even if it is converted to civilian use, how many post offices can the common people support with the little money they have?

  It’s just messing around.

 But it can’t be resisted that the three provinces and six ministries are all Shen Tang’s confidants.

 In the early days, there were not many post offices.

 Most of them are built along official roads.

 As demand increases, the number of postal stations is increasing, and there are even postal stations in counties and cities. These special postal stations are nominally designed to transport goods more efficiently, but are they in fact? He also serves as Shen Tang’s eyes and ears, and is still aboveboard.

More and more people know that post offices can deliver letters and do not charge much money, so they begin to use post offices to communicate with relatives in distant places. Traveling merchants are also willing to pay higher prices to find postal services for delivery. However, the postal service follows the unified standards set by the government, which is different from private services such as **** agencies. The most important thing is that there is no way to evade taxes by using the postal service.

As the postal network expanded, Shen Tang also tried to circulate crop commodities from various places. In order to ensure more efficient transportation, the routes and transportation between post offices need to be improved.

 Over the past few years, it has improved a lot. It was also by relying on this method that Shen Tang was able to catch them all in such a short period of time before the Beimo Hidden Stake and the Kunzhou rebels could react.

The post office, which was not favored by officials at first, actually relied on the private sector to thrive. Unfortunately, the accounts were all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War.

What Xun Zhen wants now is accounts.

 In other words, robbing the Ministry of War’s money.

Jiang Shengneng is someone who just sits back and waits to die?

He insisted on one sentence – No!

The Postal Station is run by the Ministry of War, so the revenue from the accounts should naturally be the responsibility of the Ministry of War. Why should the Ministry of Household Affairs get involved? The post office was his hard work. Before, thousands of people hated it, but now that they can make money, they will rob it. As a man and an official, you can’t be so shameless! Moreover, the post office is not only responsible for civilian use, but also for military use. Why, the Ministry of Household Affairs wants to exceed its authority?

Shen Tang blinked as he looked at the two people who were getting more and more noisy.

 Back when we were still members of the Caotai team, the civil and military staff were very united and put aside private feuds. We rarely blushed in official matters. Everyone was friendly and could sit down and discuss any opinions they had. Since the establishment of Kang State and Shen Tang began to go to court, these people have been fighting every now and then, and there is a high probability that the violence will escalate.

 Sure enough, the workload will make the workers angry.

As soon as this idea came to mind, Shen Tang saw with sharp eyes that someone was taking action, from squirting and pushing to rolling up their sleeves.

I could still vaguely hear Jiang Sheng yelling angrily.

“Xun Hanzhang, please show off your pride, but be careful of the **** disaster in your house in the near future!” The officials who were trying to start a fight were greatly troubled when they heard this. We all serve as officials in the same court, so we can just focus on official business and exchange a few words and punch each other. Why do we curse other people’s families?
