Qin Mubai looked at their backs, instead of getting angry, he laughed.

"San Lang, your cultivation is getting better and better." Qin Shubao said in annoyance behind him, "According to the old man's temper, first commit these bold and rude people to the seniors, according to military orders. And severely punished!"

"Father handsome, why get angry?" Qin Mubai smiled slightly, and walked to Qin Shubao's side and said, "These mad paradoxes are not worthy of argument, and they are not worth irritating. Children have their own gulfs in their chests. Long-term plan. The Xue brothers and others are short-sighted and eager to ask for credit, just like a gambler, just thinking about winning and leaving. If they can temporarily win three to five hundred heads, they will be satisfied, enough to go back and ask your Majesty for credit. Please reward. This is nothing more than their idea, and it is also their original intention for unwilling farming."

"That's right." Qin Shubao nodded and said, "Brothers Xue, in recent years, they have gained great popularity in their military service. They are used to charging and fighting to kill the enemy and make contributions. For the generals, only when they go to battle can they make achievements. Only chance can be promoted and wealthy. Generals are warlike, an important starting point is this, not to mention that my Datang Shangwu attaches great importance to military merit. This time in Lanzhou, the Xue brothers have suffocated their hearts and wanted to make a big deal. Then they make meritorious service and leave. They are not interested in the long-term plan of farming and raising sangtu. This is seriously inconsistent with their original intention."

"My child had predicted in advance that as soon as the New Deal was promulgated, it would inevitably encounter infinite resistance. Whenever new affairs are introduced, they will always face the intervention and obstacles of many conservative things, which is difficult. This is not surprising." Qin Mubai A faint smile said, "They join me, let them join! However, military orders are military orders. As long as the court does not remove me for a day, they must implement the decree issued by me. If there is a violation, the child must follow the military law. Strictly deal with it! However, it is not a last resort, and the child will not do this. After all, the Xue family brothers are rare warriors. If we fight back in our nest, it is tantamount to breaking our arms, and the only benefit is Tubo. People!"

"Well, good!" Qin Shubao smiled in relief, stood up and patted Qin Mubai's shoulder, and said, "Neither humble nor overbearing, there is evidence; both hard and soft, courtesy first, neither weak nor reckless, very good. That’s how it should be for you! Saburo, not seeing you for a year, you have improved a lot. Even as a father, you have to sigh yourself. It seems that you have learned a lot from your trip to Xiangzhou."

Qin Mubai smiled and replied: "Father's praise. At the moment, our top priority is to use the army to take the lead to help and encourage the states and counties under Lanzhou to develop spring farming production. The child has just been in Lanzhou Cishi Mansion, and Xiao Liang and others discussed the iron ore matter. They agreed that the production of military equipment and horse gear should be stopped, and the production of farm tools should be stopped at the moment. Moreover, the quick horses should be sent to the court to urge the spring seeds. When the child came, he brought some , But obviously not enough."

"Okay! Whatever you want, just do it boldly! For the old bones of your father, I will back you up! If the Xue brothers and others dare to defy the military order, the old man will stop being polite to them That's it!" Qin Shubao laughed, and the Lingyun arrogance that only peak martial artists had appeared on his face again, coldly said, "It seems that they are suspicious, Qin Qiong is old, can you still have food?"

A few days later, two six hundred li urgent memorials were handed over to Li Shimin's imperial case.

One is a memorial for the impeachment of Qin Mubai from the frontline commander General Xue Wanjun from the frontline of Shancheng, and the other is a memorial for not driving Qin Mubai from the Dudu’s Mansion in Lanzhou, please order Set aside spring plowing seeds.

At this time, Fang Xuanling was beside her, and she smiled when she saw Li Shimin holding the two memorials.

"Why does your Majesty laugh?" Fang Xuanling asked inexplicably, "The front-line generals are disagreeable, but the soldiers are taboo!"

"Xuanling, come and see!" Li Shimin gave the memorial to Fang Xuanling with a smile, and said, "This is really interesting. Xue Wanjun and others want to impeach Qin Mubai, but Qin Mubai only Without mentioning this matter, just ask me for the seeds of farming tools. The subordinates are in conflict, what is Shubao doing? But I haven't seen him say only a few words."

Fang Xuanling took the memorial and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "That's it! It seems that the Qin family's father and son are well-informed and are not worried about the Xue brothers' rebellion."

"It is true." Li Shimin chuckled. "This pair of brothers Xue, fierce tigers on the battlefield, do not know anything about political affairs. They are brave but they don't know my long-term plan. From this point of view, it is Qin. Mu Bai, who is a weak ambition, knows the whole thing. I can imagine how embarrassing the Xue family brothers was based on his temper, but he didn’t mention a word. Xuan Ling, at a young age, has such a mind and heart. Tolerance, knowing that everything focuses on the overall situation. Isn’t it a minister of society? Shubao also does not bear me. Before such a thing is not a contradiction, he took out the mind of a general, and did not favor his son or He is not in a hurry to complain to me or explain. From this point of view, he is also confident and sure to handle the internal conflicts of these military generals."

"Indeed." Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, put the memorial back on the royal case, and said, "It seems that your Majesty has a countermeasure?"

"Since Shubao can control the Xue family brothers, why should I make this extra effort to make him embarrassed? The prestige of the front-line commander, I must also actively protect it." Li Shimin smiled slightly, and began to reply. After the approval, she gave Fang Xuanling a look.

Fang Xuanling smiled after reading it, and said, "Your Majesty is brilliant."

"Haha!" Li Shimin laughed heartily and said: "Let's wait and see! I am very looking forward to Qin Mubai's performance in Lanzhou!"

A few days later, in Lanzhou Dudu’s Mansion.

The imperial decree granted all Qin Mubai's requests. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households have already started busy, preparing to transport large quantities of seeds and livestock to Lanzhou to help open up wasteland and produce. And allowed the Lanzhou Dudu’s Office to act cheaply and use iron and salt mines.

In the imperial edict, there is no mention of the conflict between the Xue brothers and the Qin family.

Qin Shubao and Qin Mubai accepted the order and laughed together, quite cheerful. Since the emperor has given such a reply, it means that he supports a series of new policies implemented by Qin Mubai!

That's enough! No matter how the Xue brothers are not convinced, they can only honestly farm the fields and raise the mulberries!

At the same time, another imperial decree, together with a large sum of gold, silver, silk and silk, was also sent down to the barracks on the front line of Shancheng. The emperor commended Xue Wanjun and others for their hard work in commanding the troops, and gave special gifts such as gold, silver, silk and silk as a consolation. Similarly, there was no mention of their proposal to impeach Qin Mubai!

Xue Wanke wondered: What does the emperor mean? I impeach Qin Mubai, but he gave me a reward? !

Being puzzled, he summoned all his generals to discuss together.

As the saying goes, the three heads of cobblers reach Zhuge Liang, and everyone together can really come up with a reasonable explanation: the emperor neither dismissed Qin Mubai, nor reprimanded Xue Wanjun. The implication was that his old man supported Qin. Mu Bai implements the Lanzhou New Deal. The reason why Xue Wanjun’s impeachment memorial was not explicitly dismissed was because he took into account his face, and at the same time, he expressed that he did not want the conflict between them and the Qin family to expand, and that everything focused on the overall situation. That gold, silver, silk and silk is not so much a reward as a comfort, but it means nothing more than-don't make any comments, or follow the farming and raising mulberries obediently! What's upsetting, look at the money! If you are going to fight to kill the enemy and contribute to the country, isn't it just a reward? I have already given it, should I be satisfied?

Understanding the emperor's intentions, Xue Wanjun and others lost their temper completely. It seems that the reason why this kid Qin Mubai dared to act so recklessly was that the emperor was backing him, but it was not because he was a general of the governor and asked him to pick up a cheap official to do it!

Come on, it doesn't matter who we are in conflict with, but don't be awkward with the emperor-let's farm out and raise mulberries!

Therefore, in the areas of Shancheng and Liangzhou, which had been passively sabotaged before, spring ploughing activities also began in full swing.

Shancheng, Liangzhou, and Lanzhou form an iron triangle in the Datanghelong area. The hinterland is the alluvial plain of the Yellow River. There are a lot of fertile and fertile land, which is indeed conducive to farming livestock. However, beforehand, Shancheng and Liangzhou had been dissipating accumulations and slowing down and did not cooperate, and the Tuntian incident was progressing slowly. Now, all three things have risen, and the spring ploughing under the rule of Lanzhou Dudu's Mansion is in full swing!

Fifty thousand army, every soldier is a tough labor force. Coupled with the disciplined organization of the army, the efficiency of farming is many times higher than that of ordinary people.

Qin Mubai and his father visited many states and counties under the rule of Lanzhou for a period of time, personally supervising spring plowing production in various places. Seeing the gratifying situation, Qin Shubao felt relieved, and said to Qin Mubai: "Sanlang, you still have the ability! If it weren't for you, you wouldn't be interested in pursuing the farming method for your father. Moreover, when the Xue family brothers came to force the palace, if not If you come out to mediate, you may have taken them to justice for your father, and the contradictions will also be stimulated. It seems that after living for your father for more than 50 years, this way of governing is not as good as you."

"Father is too modest." Qin Mubai smiled, "Actually, this is the strategy set by His Majesty the Emperor before leaving Beijing, and the child is only implementing it. The Xue family brothers and others are short-sighted. , I dare to provoke the palace. I don’t know, they’re not me, but the emperor. If it weren’t for the emperor’s broad-mindedness and the overall situation, they don’t know what the situation is."

"Father, I finally understand why the emperor sent you here." Qin Shubao smiled heartily, "You are more aware of the overall situation and government affairs than the old man. It seems that the old man is called the commander in chief, who actually manages the Lanzhou plan. , But it's you kid. It won't take me a few years to be too old to be useful. Then the lord of Lanzhou must be you! The emperor's personal arrangement can be called exquisite!"
