Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Carefully surveying the battlefield and planning carefully is what Ning Fan should do.

In the afternoon, a group of Jin Yiwei arrived at Pingnanguan. This was the Jin Yiwei that followed Ning Fan.

Of course, there were also two cabinet elders who followed Ning Fan and later came to Pingnanguan to help Ning Fan handle government affairs.

Although Ning Fan temporarily handed over the matters in Kyoto to Cheng Wei, the chief assistant of the cabinet, he could not neglect the political affairs of the country, especially in Jiangnan, where there were a large number of urgent memorials every day.

There are some issues that Zhou Qun can decide, but there are many issues that Zhou Qun still can't decide. Then Ning Fan needs to make the decision. After all, many things are new in the face of reform. Even if Zhou Qun has the talent of the world, he still can't. It is impossible to do everything.

But Ning Fan is different. He is a person from modern times. Looking at the society of the feudal era from a modern perspective, governance is much simpler and clearer. Ning Fan can do many things that are hundreds of years ahead of his time. He does The decisions made are often difficult to understand, but the benefits will become apparent after a while.

Ning Fan had established his majesty before he ascended the throne, but when he came to Pingnanguan, the first thing Ning Fan had to do was to establish his majesty. When it came to establishing his majesty, Ning Fan was very familiar with it.

The best way to establish dignity is to kill people, but you cannot kill people indiscriminately, let alone kill people for unfounded charges, otherwise you will become a coward.

It is undeniable that Huang Chao did a good job at Pingnanguan. He not only stabilized the situation at Pingnanguan, but also firmly kept the rebels out of Pingnanguan.

However, the defenders of Pingnanguan were not monolithic, and had been infiltrated internally by the rebels. Things that Huang Chao had not been able to detect before, Ning Fan got a list in his hands as soon as he came.

This list is the list of spies placed by the Northwest Rebels among the Pingnanguan Wolf Soldiers. Each name on the list represents a lofty status in the military. These people control key departments and usually do not show off their prowess, but At the critical moment, if these people rebel, the impact on the war at Pingnanguan will be incalculable.

Jinyiwei controls the world everywhere. Ning Fan will know what he wants to know. In fact, there are spies in the ordinary times. Ning Fan has known about this for a long time, but he has been holding back, just so that he can be in the battle today. Establish majesty in front of you.

However, Ning Fan was not in a hurry. When the sky was bright, he took Xiao Lingxi around and visited all the mountains and rivers in Pingnanguan. In the process, Ning Fan spent a lot of time Half a month's time.

Just when everyone thought that Ning Fan was a fool who only knew how to travel around, things suddenly changed.

In the morning, Huang Chao was called to Ning Fan's palace and was scolded in person.

"It is undeniable that during the period when I appointed you as the guard general of Pingnan Pass, you have made many achievements, but at the same time, you also have many shortcomings."

"I am not traveling around these days. Look at what I have recorded in this notebook."

Ning Fan directly threw the notebook in his hand towards Huang Chao.

Huang Chao picked up the notebook on the ground and looked at it. His face suddenly became extremely ugly. It turned out that Ning Fan had secretly discovered many unimaginable truths about Pingnanguan after this period of private visits. That was the materials transported from Jiangnan provinces. Being resold in large quantities.

The seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River mobilized the whole country to support Pingnanguan. These resources were continuously transported, but only a small part was used in the army. Most of them were used by these middle and lower-level officers to line their own pockets and were sold secretly. Turned into white money, and then sent home.

Huang Chao is good at handling military affairs, but not good at handling government affairs. He rarely goes to such matters, and his concern is basically as a hands-off shopkeeper.

Huang Chao felt numb when he saw Ning Fan's manuscript. He did not expect that Pingnanguan, which he was so proud of, would be worthless in front of Lin Fan.

However, it is undeniable that everything recorded in Ning Fan's manuscript is true, and every item has evidence that Huang Chao cannot deny.

"The price of rice in Jiangnan is 600 cash per dou, but after all the hardships of transportation, when it is delivered to Pingnanguan, what do you think the price of rice in Pingnan is? It's only 400 cash."

"Officers, big and small, are gambling on the street and listening to music in the bar. How many of them really care about this country?"

Ning Fan roared loudly, and dozens of officers from Pingnanguan stood there, not even daring to speak out.

Ning Fan looked at the man standing behind Huang Chao. He was a middle-aged man about forty years old. At this time, he did not dare to raise his head and look at Ning Fan.

He is Huang Chao's brother-in-law and Huang Chao's best partner. Huang Chao is in charge of military affairs, while this person is in charge of logistics and government affairs.

"Li Jin, tell me. You are the chief political officer of Ping Nanguan. What is the reason for these things?"

Ning Fan stared coldly at Li Jin, the most popular person in Pingnanguan. He was trembling with fear and his face turned pale.

Ning Fan said nothing and looked at Li Jin standing there with his head bowed in silence, sneering in his heart.

He first pulled Huang Chao out and scolded him, just to show his majesty as the emperor. Before he came, Huang Chao was from Pingnanguan, and the coach was also the local emperor here. But as soon as he came as the emperor, Huang Chao turned into a primary school student and was severely reprimanded by him.

Huang Chao was so smart. When he saw Ning Fan reprimanding him today, he knew that Ning Fan was going to establish his authority, so he stood aside silently.

But he felt a cold sweat in his heart for Li Jin. After all, Li Jin was his brother-in-law. If there was really something wrong with him, it would be really hard to accept that he was killed by Ning Fan.

But at this time, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. If Ning Fan really caught something against Li Jin, even Huang Chao would have nothing to say. For the future of the country and the future victory of the entire Pingnanguan, the only choice was to sacrifice Li Jin. Enter this head.

"Why don't you speak? Do you have nothing to say?" Ning Fan saw that Li Jin was silent, but he knew in his heart that Li Jin was deliberately pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Although this kid looks like a coward now, in the eyes of his subordinates, he is usually an extremely arrogant and domineering Qiantose Master.

He resold a large amount of supplies at will, and dared to hug women openly in the military camp.

If Ping Nanguan had not had Huang Chao as the protagonist, Ning Fan felt that he would not be able to survive now. Having a deputy like Li Jin would simply hold Huang Chao back.

"Your Majesty, I failed to manage things well. I bear the main responsibility for these problems."
