Usually, this kind of eunuch who is in charge of the inner court generally does not leave the palace easily, nor does it leave the capital easily. Just like the eunuch Chen Ju, Chen Ju, in the Chengde Dynasty, almost never left the capital once. Computer terminal::/

After all, they have to resist the affairs of the Eighth Prison in the Inner Court.

Although the eighth magistrates in the inner court are somewhat unwilling to be a young man, Xiao Zheng, the only young magistrate in the inner court, is considered a high-ranking position and power in the palace. In any case, he doesn't need to do the job of plagiarism.

In the Eighth Prison, there is also a yamen dedicated to conveying the holy will.

But Xiao Zheng came.

Li Xin and Ye Ming looked at each other, and they were a little confused.

There are two possibilities now. One is that the young Eunuch Xiao offended His Majesty, lost his holy family, and was demoted to the yamen responsible for the preaching of the imperial edict.

The second possibility is that the court, or His Majesty has important matters, which must be conveyed by the eunuch Xiao Zheng, himself.

Ye Ming smiled and said to Xiao Zheng: "Eunuch Xiao is not serving His Majesty, why did you go to the southwest by himself?"

Xiao Zheng rubbed his waist, then lowered his head to Ye Ming, and said respectfully: "Go back to the general, Your Majesty has the holy intention to ask me to come to the southwest to convey it. I am not a noble person. If Your Majesty wants me to come, I will naturally come."

Li Xin stood behind Ye Ming and did not speak.

Ye Ming asked tentatively: "Does Your Majesty know about the Southwest?"

Xiao Zheng lowered his head and smiled, "Your Majesty received the news from the Southwest seven days ago. Long Yan was very happy and issued a grand banquet for the ministers in Weiyang Palace. He also exempted the taxes for the three years of southwest, saying that it was to give the southwest a rest and rest."

This is actually a normal operation. After experiencing this incident in the southwest, the situation was already unstable. If the court immediately imposed taxes after taking over, chaos would probably arise. Moreover, the Taikang Dynasty inherited the inheritance of the Chengde Dynasty, and the national treasury was not poor. The tax exemption from the southwest for three years would not affect much.

What's more, the important places for the imperial court's taxes were not in the southwest.

As the chief supervisor of the Western Expedition, Ye Ming bent over to Xiao Zheng after hearing this and smiled: "Your Majesty cares about the people, I am the people of Shu County. I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

Xiao Zheng waved his hand repeatedly and shook his head, "The general said these words to His Majesty after returning to the capital, how dare he receive the general's courtesy?"

Ye Ming smiled and said nothing.

Xiao Zheng secretly glanced at Li Xin behind Ye Ming, and then continued to say to Ye Ming: "General, Your Majesty sends me to ask the general. The following are the questions I ask on behalf of Your Majesty. If there is any offense, the General will be insured."

When Ye Ming and Li Xin heard this, they both made an act of kneeling down.

When asked by the Emperor on his behalf, Xiao Zheng is now the Emperor Taikang, and both of them should give him some necessary respect.

Xiao Zheng waved his hand quickly and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty has given the order. Both of them have made great contributions to the court. Just stand and listen."

The two of them were just doing things. After hearing this, they stood up and listened to the "Haichi".

Xiao Zheng coughed and became serious.

"Your Majesty Dai asked General Ye, has the southwest been completely pacified now?"

Ye Ming frowned slightly when he heard this, then turned to look at Li Xin.

Li Xin nodded slightly.

Ye Shaobao then said in a deep voice: "I replied to Your Majesty. After more than a year of fighting and Jing'an Marquis in the southwest, all of them have been pacified. The Pingnan Army has more than 130,000 people killed more than 110,000 by the imperial guards and rebels, and captured more than 15,000 people."

The Pingnan Army had more than 130,000 people, and at least 150,000 or 60,000. Ye Ming and Li Xin knew about this, but after all, they did not kill so many people, and falsely reporting too many people would easily lead to loopholes. So after Ye Ming and Li Xin discussed it, they decided to say less.

"The leader of the Pingnan army and His Highness the King of Qin who had been inexplicably trapped here, have also taken all of them. They will be escorted to the capital soon and handed over to His Majesty for disposal!"

Here, Ye Ming spoke very skillfully. He did not directly talk about Li Shen, but instead talked about the thief leader of the Pingnan Army.

Because Li Shen is actually "dead" in the capital.

Li Xin, the Marquis of Jing'an, also visited his funeral.

Ye Ming said this, paused and continued, "At this time, I am sorting out the specific casualties and the number of enemies killed in this Western Expedition. After I counted it, I will immediately send it to the capital."

There is a distinction between the primary and secondary on the battlefield. Ye Ming was the chief executive of this Western Expedition. Therefore, all the questions asked by Xiao Zheng on behalf of the emperor should be answered by Ye Ming, the chief general. During this process, Li Xin, the Marquis of Jing'an, stood behind Ye Ming with his hands, without saying a word.

Xiao Zheng took a deep breath and finally glanced at Ye Ming.

"General, is there anything wrong in the southwest?"

Ye Shaobao said in a deep voice: "Go back to Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with the southwest!"

"That's OK."

Xiao Zheng looked solemn, turned to look towards Li Xin, and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Jing'an Li Xin listened to the order."

Li Xin took a step forward and lowered his head and said, "My minister, Li Xin, obeyed the order."

Xiao Zheng said solemnly: "Li Xin, the Marquis of Jing'an, has made great contributions to the Western Expedition. I am very relieved. Since the southwest has been pacified, you don't have to stay here for a long time. I have been worried about the King of Qin for several years, and my brothers and sisters are getting deeper and deeper. I ordered you to escort your elder brother and the Pingnan Army immediately... The thief returned to Beijing for the first time."

Speaking of this, Xiao Zheng took a deep breath and smiled flatteringly at Li Xin: "Marty, Your Majesty said this."

Li Xin frowned slightly at first, then smiled at Eunuch Xiao, and said, "Your Majesty means, let me immediately take His Highness Qin and the thief leader of the Pingnan Army to go back to the capital?"

“That’s exactly that.”

Xiao Zheng smiled and lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty said that if there is no major event in the southwest, the aftermath will be handed over to General Ye for handling, and the Marquis will set off and return to Beijing immediately."

This Eunuch Xiao smiled and said, "The Marquis has been away from Beijing for almost a year and a half. Your Majesty misses the Marquis very much."

Li Xin did not speak immediately, but looked back at Ye Ming.

General Ye stepped forward and frowned and said, "Eunuch Xiao, Marquis Jing'an has made the most efforts in this war. He also needs to help deal with many things here. Moreover, even if His Majesty has no order, in another month or two, after the court dispatches officials to come, we should be in a row. Why not worry about this moment?"

Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "The General is making things difficult for me. I am just a slave. How can I know these major issues in the country? I just came to the southwest to ask questions and pass the imperial edict. If the General has any opinion, I will write a memorial and hand it over to me. I will help you bring it back to the capital and hand it over to His Majesty."

Li Xin reached out and patted Ye Ming on the shoulder, then bowed to Xiao Zheng.

"Eunuch Xiao, can you wait for another day? After all, the imperial guards here are all subordinates of my imperial guards' right camp. General Ye is inconvenient to say many things. I will explain some of them here."

Marquis Jing'an narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Besides, Eunuch Xiao has worked hard all the way. I just saw that Eunuch Xiao couldn't stand steadily, so I had to rest in Jincheng for a day before going on the road."

Xiao Zheng bowed his hands repeatedly.

"The Marquis is busy. I am waiting here and returning to Beijing with the Marquis."
