The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 265 Becoming a Beiliang Soldier
Chapter 265 Becoming a Beiliang Soldier
However, Bai Jingyi and Li Er faced each other across the air!

These ministers stood up with their own opinions, and bowed to Li Er and said, "My lord, I think that the scholars of the Shandong clan should never be rewarded to the King of Beiliang!"

"First, it has no roots and no basis! Second, it will make scholars all over the world think that the royal family is unfair! Third, it will make people all over the world think that my royal family is arbitrarily authoritarian!"

"At that time, how can scholars in the world be willing to enter the court and become an official?"

When hearing this, all the civil and military officials present fell into silence for an instant.

After all, what the minister said was reasonable, and the consequences were very serious.

"My lord, if the scholars from Shandong gentry are rewarded to the King of Beiliang, I am afraid that many officials in the court will be dismissed!"

Even Li Er felt a little headache when he heard the minister's words.

After all, in this court, there are many ex-dynasties who hold high positions and come from Shandong gentry.

If he were to be dismissed at this point, I am afraid that Datang would reduce more than half of its officials.

As a result, there were no officials in many areas of Datang to manage the people's sentiments.

However, it didn't end there. Immediately, another minister stood up, bowed to Li Er and said, "My Majesty! That Liangzhou is a barren and barren frontier!"

"If scholars from the Shandong gentry go to Liangzhou, I'm afraid they will all run back to Shandong within three days!"

"How to deal with these scholars at that time!?"

When Li Er heard this question, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer it.

After all, these scholars are not criminals at all... If they leave Liangzhou, it is a violation of the imperial edict.

But Li Er had no excuse to kill them at all.

Once they are really killed, I am afraid that scholars all over the world will riot.

North Korean and Chinese officials are even more torn apart.

And from the corner of Li Er's eyes, he happened to see Bai Jingyi's half-smile face.

Immediately, he was thinking in his heart: "Since this Zhuzi wants me to reward him with all the scholars of the Shandong gentry!"

"Then he must have a way to solve this matter!"

When thinking of this, Li Er seemed to have completed his plot, with a faint smile on his face.

He looked at Bai Jingyi and waved, "Since Bai Aiqing wants me to reward you with scholars from the Shandong gentry!"

"Then how should Bai Aiqing solve this problem!?"

After hearing Li Er's question, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said, "Heh! As long as they go! They won't leave!"

Li Er immediately asked suspiciously: "When I came to Liangzhou in person, I saw the poverty of Liangzhou with my own eyes!"

"How could the pampered scholar suffer so much!?"

Before Bai Jingyi could answer.

Wang Chen, a minister from the Wang family in Taiyuan, immediately stood up and bowed to Li Er and said, "My lord! Now my Tang Dynasty has just extinguished the boundless flames of war!"

"There is a shortage of food everywhere in the Tang Dynasty!"

"And Liangzhou is not rich, at least enough food! After these scholars arrive in Liangzhou, they will definitely be able to live until late autumn next year, when the grain is harvested!"

At the same time, Li Jing also stood up and bowed to Li Er and said, "My lord, Shandong is near the sea, and the wind and waves on the sea are calm!"

"Every time Goguryeo invades the border of our Tang Dynasty, it will definitely cross the sea to Shandong to make trouble!"

"The Turks invaded our Tang Dynasty twice, Goguryeo will definitely not let go of such an opportunity to take advantage of the fire!"

"So these scholars not only don't have enough to eat, but may also face war!"

"And the news that the king of Beiliang led his troops to defeat the Turkic coalition twice and won a complete victory has already spread to every corner of the Tang Dynasty!"

"So Liangzhou is the safest place, and it's also a place where you can have a full stomach! After these scholars go, they will never leave before late autumn next year!"

In the court, Li Jing was originally a neutral minister.Will not join any vein at all.

But for the sake of his son-in-law, he can only stand up and speak for Bai Jingyi... After all, it is for his daughter...

Li Er glanced at Li Jing with a complicated expression, and then said lightly, "The two lovers are right!"

Afterwards, Li Er looked at Bai Jingyi and asked, "But it is difficult to ensure that every scholar will stay in Liangzhou willingly!"

"If there are scholars who are homesick, they insist on leaving Liangzhou! How should Bai Aiqing deal with it!?"

But Bai Jingyi said indifferently: "Of course it's a military law!"

"Sigh~~"

Hearing this, Manchao Wenwu gasped again.

Military law! ?This is probably not a joke by Bai Jingyi.

Among the military laws, the minimum penalty is twenty sticks!

How could these frail scholars who couldn't carry on their shoulders or carry them with their hands be able to stand the punishment of the military law! ?

In case it is true that the punishment in the military camp is used on these scholars.

I am afraid that these scholars will be directly killed half of their lives. What is the difference between this and directly killing them?
Immediately, a minister stood up, bowed to Li Er and said: "My lord, if these scholars are dealt with by military law, wouldn't it cause a huge injustice!"

"Report to Your Majesty! It is absolutely forbidden to be dealt with by military law. These scholars are already weak, how can they stand military law!?"

"Report to the Holy Majesty! I think it is absolutely impossible to reward the scholars of the Shandong gentry to the King of Beiliang!"

"If that's the case, how should the scholars in the world view the royal family and the Holy Majesty!"

Listening to these ministers' words, the corners of Bai Jingyi's mouth slightly raised.

At the same time, I thought in my heart: "These ministers who are officials in the court are indeed old and mature!"

"These people know that Li Er loves face, so when these people make suggestions, most of them are inseparable from the topic of how people in the world think about the royal family!"

However, this seemingly simple and useless sentence is very useful to Li Er.

Li Er's face was ugly, and he said to Bai Jingyi: "This method is absolutely not feasible! I will never allow you to abuse lynching!"

"Besides, these scholars are completely different from the soldiers in the army! If you deal with them by military law, it is absolutely impossible to reward these scholars to you!"

Although the ministers of the aristocratic family wanted to stand up and help Bai Jingyi speak.

But they didn't know how to speak at all, if Bai Jingyi didn't say to use military law to deal with it, they still had room to maneuver.

It's a pity that Bai Jingyi directly killed this matter in one sentence.

Therefore, these family ministers can only do nothing to help them.

However, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said: "Heh! You are a soldier in our army! Why can't you stand the military law!?"

Upon hearing Bai Jingyi's words, the Tai Chi Hall suddenly fell into silence.

The civil and military officials present couldn't think of any difference between scholars and soldiers in the Beiliang Army, let alone any connection between them.

The selection system for Beiliang Army soldiers is very strict.It is difficult for ordinary soldiers to meet the requirements.

How could these scholars who couldn't carry them on their shoulders or hands be qualified to become soldiers of the Northern Liang Army?
