Chapter 1289 Cold-blooded?

In the next few days, Yun Zheng was indeed busy.

Not only Zhenhe, he also needs to make some arrangements on the Li Kingdom side.

After all, Lu Andao and Shang Qingdao had already rented it to them.

Within twenty years, they had actual jurisdiction over both places.

How to employ people and how to assimilate the people of the Le Dynasty were all things he needed to consider.

In addition, if conditions permit, it may be necessary to consider migrating people from the interior to the Le Dynasty and Zhenhe.

The battle is over.

But governing these places is much more difficult than conquering them.

In the past two days, the casualties of soldiers in various units have also been counted.

In this battle, their casualties were not great.

Of the original 50,000 troops, about 6,000 died directly in battle and from wounds and illnesses.

More than 2,400 of them were killed in the battle at Hukou.

This result made Yun Zheng feel extremely uncomfortable.

If Gao Quan had accepted the order and surrendered, they would have suffered fewer deaths.

Even if Shen Kuan didn't kill the surrendered soldiers in Hukou, he would make those people's lives a fate worse than death.

To this end, Yun Zheng also asked Wang Chi to order the beheading of Gao Yong, several ministers who advised Wang Chi not to surrender, and their families.

"Your Highness, Hailanduo requests to see you!"

That day, when Yun Zheng was writing something in the house, Lin Ji suddenly came to report.

Yun Zheng paused for a moment, and replied without even looking up: "Tell her that I am busy."

After saying that, Yun Zheng continued writing.

He had no good impression of Hailanduo from the beginning.

This is still the case.

"Or, I'll go meet her!"

Miaoyin glanced at Yun Zheng and said, "Zhen He has just surrendered completely. It's not good to be too cold to her."

Yun Zheng stopped writing.

After a while, Yun Zheng slowly raised his head and asked, "Should I send someone to kill her and then put the blame on the people of Li?"

what?

As Yun Zheng's voice fell, Miaoyin's expression suddenly changed.

Yun Zheng actually wanted to kill Hailanduo?

Miaoyin stared at Yun Zheng blankly.

Suddenly, she understood what had changed about Yun Zheng.

Yun Zheng became calmer!

Or rather, even more indifferent!

In the past, even if Yun Zheng was annoyed with Hailanduo, as long as Hailanduo didn't seek death, he would at most find a way to deal with Hailanduo, and he would definitely not kill her directly.

Jia Yao seemed to have taken away the humanity from Yun Zheng.

Miaoyin opened her mouth slightly and looked at Yun Zheng with a complicated expression: "Husband, I'm so scared..."

"What are you afraid of?"

Yun Zheng stood up and walked to Miaoyin, gently holding her in his arms.

Miaoyin raised her face with a hint of fear in her eyes: "I'm afraid that you will become a real emperor, that you will become cold-blooded and heartless, that you will no longer be the pervert in our sisters' hearts..."

She was really scared.

She would rather Yun Zheng always be just a vassal king with his own army.

She was afraid that Yun Zheng would become a cold-blooded and ruthless emperor.

She was also afraid that Yun Zheng would develop mental disorders because of Jia Yao’s matter.

She hoped to see Yun Zheng smile every day instead of him being serious all day long.

Yun Zheng was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is it because I have the intention to kill Hailanduo?"

"Ah."

Miaoyin nodded gently, "If it were in the past, you would definitely not have the intention to kill Hailanduo..."

Yun Zheng sighed softly and said seriously: "You should be able to see that she is not a quiet person. If I don't kill her, I'm afraid she will cause some trouble here in the future."

Suddenly, Yun Zheng understood what Emperor Wen had said to him.

Sheep, just sheep!

A shepherd is to ensure that the flock grows, not that every sheep survives!

For some people, it doesn't matter whether they are right or wrong, or whether they deserve to die.

When you need this person to die, he is the one who should die.

If this person's life has greater value, he should not die as long as he does not touch the bottom line.

"I know."

Miaoyin raised her hand and gently stroked Yun Zheng's cheek. "But if it was before, you must have a better way to deal with her, instead of killing her directly like you are doing now, right? I know I shouldn't be soft-hearted, I just don't want you to become cold and heartless. If you insist on doing this, I will support you..."

To deal with Hailanduo, Yun Zheng doesn't even need to take action. She has many ways to prevent Hailanduo from causing any trouble.

With Yun Zheng's skills, he can definitely control Hailanduo tightly.

Feeling Miaoyin's tenderness and fear, Yun Zheng couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.

Perhaps, after the incident with Jia Yao, he did become a little cold-blooded.

But from his point of view, killing Hailanduo and putting the blame on the people of Li would be more conducive to controlling Zhenhe and Li.

"That's it!"

Yun Zheng exhaled a breath of foul air and held Miaoyin's slightly cold palm, "I'll think about how to deal with her! Don't worry, I won't live the way I hate myself. I will always be the pervert in your hearts."

"Ah."

Miaoyin nodded gently and kissed Yun Zheng's lips.

After their lips parted, Yun Zheng patted Miaoyin's hips again, "Then go talk to her! You can tell her tactfully that I'm not interested in her. If she doesn't understand, then don't say it."

"it is good!"

Miaoyin sat up from Yun Zheng's arms, pecked Yun Zheng on the face again, and then walked out of the room slowly.

Looking at Miaoyin's back, Yun Zheng couldn't help but blame himself secretly.

Miaoyin has been worried too much about him these days.

He really shouldn't let Miaoyin continue to worry, nor should he let Miaoyin feel afraid.

He shouldn't let his loss affect Miaoyin and the others.

However, he really didn't want to argue with Hailandra right now.

or……

Give Hailanduo to my father as a concubine?

Let the emperor put her under house arrest in the deep palace?

In this way, we can give Hesheli enough face and prevent trouble before it happens?

After thinking silently for a while, Yun Zheng temporarily gave up the idea.

Let’s go back and talk to Hesheli first to see what he thinks!

……

Emperor Wen in the palace suddenly shuddered.

Emperor Wen straightened his clothes, feeling puzzled.

It’s just the beginning of autumn, why do I feel a chill?

Could it be that the rebellious son Lao Liu is plotting against me again?

Counting the time, it has been almost four months since the rebellious son went to war against the Le Dynasty, right?

It's almost August.

In more than a month, the situation in the Le Dynasty should be getting colder, right?

That rebellious son must have wanted to end the war against the Le Dynasty before the weather got cold.

With the ability of that rebellious son, he should be able to do this.

If that rebellious son conquers the Le Dynasty, he will probably want me to send officials there again.

Maybe, that rebellious son even wants me to help him come up with some advice to completely turn the Li Dynasty into the territory of Daqian!

Anyway, once that rebellious son conquers a place, he will definitely think of me!

He has already figured out Yun Zheng's thoughts.

Whenever this rebellious son encountered trouble, he would either betray his third brother or the imperial court and himself.

I just don't know to what extent the war in the Le Dynasty has progressed.

Just as Emperor Wen was secretly calculating, Mu Shun came to report: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince wants to see you."

Emperor Wen withdrew his thoughts and nodded slightly to Mu Shun.

Soon, Mu Shun came in with Yun Li.

"My son has met my father."

Yun Li bowed respectfully.

"Okay, sit down!"

Emperor Wen raised his hand slightly.

"Thank you, Father."

Yun Li walked to the side and sat down, smiling and said, "Father, the Mid-Autumn Festival will come soon. This year, Xiqu will pay tribute to our dynasty. Do you think we should hold a grand Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?"

"It's up to you to decide."

Emperor Wen waved his hands and said with a smile: "However, don't be too extravagant! When I went to your uncle's house with your mother a few days ago, your uncle said that the court's expenses this year were too high, and he didn't know if there would be any surplus by the end of the year..."

Yun Li nodded in obedience, "I understand! The court's expenses this year are indeed quite large."

He wants to prepare for the war against the Sixth Brother. How can the expenses be huge?

If it weren’t for the huge gains from the confiscation of property last year, the court would probably have been unable to make ends meet.

However, it is gratifying that the court's military campaign was quite successful.

Through the military examination, some young generals with great potential were also discovered.

With training, those generals will surely achieve great things in the future!

"You've made great progress in the past few years. Just keep this in mind."

Emperor Wen smiled, and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, does the court have any news about Lao Liu's rebellious son? How is his fight with the Li Dynasty going?"
