    "Headquarters, a secret message from Nanchang!"

    After receiving the good news, Zhao Han arranged some affairs and was about to return to Ji'an as soon as possible, when he suddenly received a secret letter from Xu Ying.

    After translating with the code, there are only eleven words: Our army won a big victory, the people of Raozhou rebelled, and Fucheng fell.

    Zhao Han immediately laughed, Jiangxi is really a powder keg, when the news of the defeat of the officers and soldiers came out, the peasants in Raozhou Prefecture immediately rebelled.

    In terms of the importance of taxation and labor, the whole of Jiangxi should belong to Raozhou Prefecture and Jianchang Prefecture.

    The people of Raozhou Prefecture have to support King Huai.

    The people of Jianchang Mansion have to support King Yi.

    Although these two vassal kings occupy countless fields, the salaries of their clan children (including the vassal king himself) have to be provided by the local government, and the central court will not pay.

    There are countless children in the clan, how can the common people afford to support them?

    ?Even when Zhang Juzheng reformed, a whip method could not be implemented here. Until Chongzhen was hanged to death, farmers in the two prefectures still turned in their grain.

    In addition to food and taxes, there are also labor.

    If the vassal kings want to repair gardens, the people in a radius of tens of miles will suffer, so obediently bring your own dry food to serve corvee.

    Now it's cool, the peasants rebelled and captured Fucheng, and I don't know if that King Huai escaped.

    It can only be said that Zhao Han's successive victories have given great confidence to those who tried to rebel.

    When Zhao Han returned to Ji'an Prefecture, more than a dozen messengers had already gathered there, and even the Tantric Sect in Nanfeng County had sent people.

    "Congratulations to the general town for its triumphant return!"

    At the southern pier of the city, officials of all sizes shouted in unison, and many people also shouted.

    Perhaps a few months ago, the common people were afraid of the imperial court, but now a huge victory has immediately calmed people's hearts.

    Even the gentry and merchants have become more honest.

    More than a dozen anti-thief messengers from other places subconsciously wanted to bow down.  But halfway through kneeling, he was stunned again. The local officials actually just bowed. They kneeled in the crowd, but they were different.

    Zhao Han bowed his hands to Pang Chunlai, Li Banghua and others and said: "I have been fighting outside for more than two months, and it is all up to you to manage the rear."

    "I dare not take it."

    "It's a matter of duty."

    "Do your best to serve the general town!"

    ""

    Surrounded by officials into the city, Pang Chunlai said as he walked: "More than a dozen rebel envoys have come one after another, saying that they want to elect the general town as the leader of Jiangxi. Especially the rebels in southern Jiangxi were severely beaten by the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and the governor of Fujian.  They were defeated, and they asked the town to send troops to rescue them."

    "Let's talk about this later."

    Of course it was impossible for Zhao Han to send troops. He had just fought a big battle, and the food and grass were seriously consumed, and the soldiers were a little tired. They had to rest for at least half a year.

    Moreover, the weapons store has already opened, and after all the equipment is changed, the combat power can be greatly improved.

    Song Yingxing even encouraged Zhao Han to capture Ningdu County, because Ningdu has sulfur mines, which are necessary for making gunpowder.

    Ningdu is just to the east of Jishui County. Zhao Han wrote a letter to directly deny it. He would rather send people to buy it than continue to expand in the short term.

    "Let them wait, I'll go home to visit Madam first," Zhao Han winked and said with a smile, "Madam is pregnant."

    Pang Chunlai and Li Banghua looked at each other with surprise expressions on their faces.

    The benefits brought by this news are no less than the defeat of the official army.  The rebel leader has descendants, which can make the interior more stable and reduce many unnecessary troubles.

    After entering the General Military Mansion, they went to work immediately, without delaying Zhao Han's return home to visit his wife.

    Fei Rulan was standing at the gate of the inner courtyard looking around. She didn't go to the pier to join in the fun. Firstly, she was afraid of getting gas, and secondly, she didn't want to show up too much.

    Seeing Zhao Han approaching, Fei Rulan smiled and said, "Congratulations to my husband for his return."

    Fei Rulan still had to salute, Zhao Han hurriedly supported her, and helped his wife go in and sit down: "Be careful when you're pregnant, can you invite an experienced old lady?"

    "Please," Xiyue came over with tea, "Master, drink tea."

    Zhao Hanniu took a sip, then stroked his wife's lower abdomen, which was already slightly protruding.

    The pregnancy was confirmed in early May, and now it is early July. Counting the time before the diagnosis, the child is at least four or five months old.

    "Do you still vomit often?" Zhao Han asked.

    Fei Rulan said with a smile: "Occasionally I still want to vomit, but it's not as bad as last month."

    "Be careful when you walk, and don't bend down casually, be careful of fetal gas." Zhao Han reminded.

    Fei Rulan's heart was sweet, but at the same time she said with a smile: "Okay, you can alsoIf you make a mistake, you may lose your life, and blood will flow from the battle!

    Zhao Han continued to think and decided to reduce the number of eunuchs and only use them in the inner palace.  Even within the imperial city, as long as they are not in the inner palace, normal men can be used to work.

    The number of court ladies must also be reduced. After working for a certain number of years, the court ladies can be released to the people to allow them to marry, and a few old nuns who do not want to leave the palace can also be retained.

    Thinking about it left and right, Zhao Han became more and more irritable, so he simply covered his head and fell asleep to deal with it later.

    After resting at home for three full days, Zhao Han finally officially went to work.

    The first people he met were not those anti-thief envoys, but Wang Diaoding, who specialized in theoretical research.

    "I heard, what article did you write?" Zhao Han asked.

    Wang Tiaoding presented a few pages of manuscript paper: "I haven't announced it to the public, and I don't know whether it should be announced to the public."

    Zhao Han took a look, frowned and said, "Chuan Guoyi's surname?"

    "It comes from the Confucian Gongyang School's theory of Chuan Guo Yi's surname, but it has been changed. The destiny is unchanging, and only virtue is the auxiliary," Wang Tiaoding explained in detail, fearing that Zhao Han would not understand, "These two sentences come from "  The Book of Songs and the Book of History are not apostasy, but serious Confucian speeches. The fate of heaven is impermanent and cannot be permanent. The Son of Heaven was born in response to the fate of Heaven, and his virtue is to promote benevolent government and nurture the people. Today's great son of heaven cannot practice benevolent government.  It is impossible to caress the people. This is called losing virtue and losing the destiny. If a virtuous person climbs up and shouts, conducts a benevolent government, and caress the people, then he will gain his virtue and the destiny will return! ?
