The atmosphere became dull for a moment. Xia Qingqing frowned slightly and looked at Xu Ren, Yan Ze'an and others. They discussed in a low voice about the circulation of the true energy of the foundation-building period and the blockade of the surroundings.
Soon, Xia Qingqing had an idea. "You two, please go back and tell Shi Chengsong, the governor of Zhongshan County, and Zhao Guoshan, the governor of Luliang County. Li Xian was previously granted the title of 'Eastern Governor of Great Xia' by His Majesty, and is responsible for protecting the peace of the eastern part of Great Xia. Since you are unable to protect the peace of one side, then from now on, we in Anyang will form a patrol security team to assist in the two counties. In addition, Shi Chengsong and Zhao Guoshan failed to govern the local area, which led to rampant bandits in the county. Order the two to come to the capital to meet His Majesty and report the details. Everyone, please give the governor's seal."
Afterwards, Xia Qingqing quickly drafted four orders and signed them together with Xu Ren, Yan Ze'an, Beichen Yuqing, Fang Shijing, and Yan Zhengqing. Finally, they stamped them with Li Xian's seal of Anyang Mu and Li Xian's seal of the Eastern Governor of the Great Xia Kingdom.
There were four orders, one was kept on file in Anyang, one was sent to the capital, one was sent to Zhongshan County, and one was sent to Luliang County.
The two envoys, Guo Xiaolin and Zhang Pengfei, were stunned - this is not what we want!
Xu Ren and Yan Ze'an looked at each other and saw the smiles in each other's eyes. The governor of Zhongshan County, Shi Chengsong, and the governor of Luliang County, Zhao Guoshan, actually wanted to use the trade route to threaten and demand wealth, which was definitely not a small amount.
But these two people made a mistake and overestimated their own means! They never thought that the small Anyang was also a place where hidden dragons and tigers were hidden.
Xia Qingqing was a princess who grew up in the palace and lived a hard life. She was not a timid young lady from a wealthy official family, but a phoenix. Xu Ren was undoubtedly the main contributor to the current situation of Li Xian and Anyang. As for Yan Ze'an, he was a capable minister who could help the State of Cai, which was in danger, to regain its power. He was definitely no worse than Li Yulong.
Not to mention that Beichen Yuqing, Fang Shijing, Yan Zhengqing and others were not ordinary people. Those who could be recommended by Xu Ren were at least one in a thousand.
Shi Chengsong and Zhao Guoshan are asking for trouble by playing tricks in front of these people!
Now, not only did they not get the money, but they also got into trouble. After several seals were stamped on them, the two men were left with two options: first, rebel; second, meet the emperor honestly.
Perhaps there is a third way, which is to drag it out and do nothing. But under the watchful eyes of Xu Ren, Yan Ze'an and others, this third way is probably not feasible.
Guo Xiaolin and Zhang Pengfei received the order in a daze, and were dragged out of Anyang Mansion by the guards in a daze and thrown directly onto the street.
After Guo Xiaolin and Zhang Pengfei were thrown out, Xia Qingqing immediately turned to Yan Zhengqing, "Yan Zhengqing, listen to my orders."
"Here!" Yan Zhengqing stood up.
"Immediately organize a new army, temporarily named the Public Security Corps, with a size of 10,000 people. Soldiers can be selected from the surrendered soldiers who have integrated into Anyang. However, officers and others will be selected from the existing soldiers on a merit basis. Tell all soldiers who have performed well in the war that they all have the opportunity to become generals; this is just the beginning!"
"yes."
Xia Qingqing looked at Beichen Yuqing again, "Mr. Beichen, General Yan has just arrived, you can assist him. Dispatch 30,000 taels of gold from the warehouse as military pay. For related weapons and equipment, just buy them directly from Qingyun Valley."
