Chapter 402 Returning(2/2)

Miao Kui nodded repeatedly and asked impatiently: "But, our family's command is not good, so that the Hong Madam can easily escape. The emperor pursued it. What should our family do?"

Yang Ling said in surprise: "So that the enemy escapes? Where does this start? The thieves of the horse are unstoppable and want to sneak into Guanzhong to accumulate strength to make a comeback. The father-in-law expected the enemy to take the lead, gathered heavy troops to defeat their conspiracy, forcing the thieves to abandon their plans and escape into the mountains with difficulties. How could this be unfavorable command?"

"Ah?" Miao Kui was speechless, his skin was thrusting like cramps for a long time before he said, "This...this...ah! Is this...this...this...this??"

Yang Ling looked up at the shadow of the trees and the colorful sunshine among the leaves, and said slowly: "In a distant dynasty, several scholars criticized the ill-fighting government of the court. Because these people were very famous and did not know what to do, they submitted a report to the emperor. The emperor was furious and he issued an oral order with only eight words: 'The love is understandable, but the crime is unforgivable', Eunuch Miao. If you were the local official who received the order, what would you do?"

Miao Kui was inexplicably aware of why he suddenly mentioned an irrelevant anecdote, but he still answered cautiously: "From this tone, the meaning is to be severely punished. If we are a local guard, we will naturally be beheaded these ignorant scholars, at best, be generous. Let his family restrain themselves and not hang their bodies in public."

Yang Ling smiled, reached out and broke a light yellow wild daisy, leaned to his nose and sniffed it, and said, "The people in the oral orders were unbearable. When conveying the orders, they moved a little, and eventually saved the lives of those scholars."

Miao Kui said in surprise: "Transferring the imperial edict, deliberately modifying and easing it to the meaning of the emperor. In fact, it is a common thing for the internal officials, but this imperial edict only has eight words. How can it move? "

Yang Ling said in a casual voice: "Simple, the edict said to the local people: 'The sin is unforgivable, and the feelings are understandable'. He did not change a word, but just made the two sentences of the first and second sentences interfere with each other, Eunuch Miao. If you listen to such an edict, would you kill someone or release someone?"

Miao Kui seemed to have realized something after a while.

Yang Ling smiled again and said, "There is another general who was defeated for a long time and his defeat was difficult to cover up. He was afraid that the emperor would be angry. Therefore, when he submitted a report of the war, he had to make a real report. However, when he mentioned the defeat, he did not say that he would be defeated repeatedly. But when he said that he would fight again and again, the emperor was grateful to his heroic spirit and did not punish him. Does Eunuch Miao understand?"

"Then... the rest of the Hongniang?"

"Want, the remnants of white clothes had no power to fight back and were forced to flee into the mountains. They were once arrogant and had become bandits with food and clothing. However...... The court's financial resources were tight and he could not move heavy troops anymore. In my opinion, he would only dispatch the garrisons of the important posts at the foot of Taihang Mountain to be strictly guarded. He was the only one who was practicing military training and doing military work, and he would not spend much food and money."

Miao Kui slapped his forehead with a backhand, and a smile appeared on his face, and suddenly he said nervously: "Will no one be impeached?"

Yang Ling spread his hands and said, "No one must be ignorant. Besides, I am the head coach and you are the military supervisor. What is the strategic intention at the beginning? Is it achieved its goal now? Who else can tell me except you and me?"

Miao Kui was like Sun Wukong taking off his golden hoop. He was so happy that he almost scratched his head. He thanked him without any worries, nodded, bowed, and talked with Yang Ling for a long time with gratitude. Then he thought that he had left the army and light cavalry to chase him. The team had been away for too long, so he held hands and looked at each other, tears in his eyes, and reluctantly said goodbye and left.

Yang Ling smiled and looked at him happily and said to himself: "Li Kui..... Uh, brother Miao Kui, don't worry. Although I used you for a while, I will never do anything that poisoned Song Jiang. If you have anything, I will try my best to take care of you."

Miao Kui walked on the horse and felt light and was much different from when he came: "It must be Duke Wei, who turned his hands into clouds, and turned his hands into rain... Oh, Duke's letter..."

Thinking of this, Miao Kui quickly took out the letter from his arms to tear it to pieces and threw it into the clear stream under the horse's hooves: "If you follow the Duke's plan, this letter cannot be kept, otherwise I will definitely lose, and I will bear this heavy responsibility."
