"Du Bian, why are you arresting me?" said Mrs. Du Jiang, governor of Guangxi.

Du Bian squatted down in front of this woman.

"Auntie Si." Du Bian said calmly: "We haven't seen each other for more than a year, right?"

"I am the wife of the Du family, and I am the daughter of the Puyang Houfu." Jiang said coldly: "You immediately let me go. With your identity, you have no right to arrest me."

Du Bian nodded and said: "Yes, according to the law, my border town commander has no right to arrest you. But the rules...have been broken by you. According to the rules, do you have the power to kill Governor Zhang Yangming? You have the power to kill Governor Zhang Yangming. Do you break King Gui’s legs? Do you have the power to kill King Gui?"

"The winner is the king and the loser, what is there to say?" Mrs. Du Jiang said in a cold voice.

Du Bian said: "Are you telling me that you are the king and the loser? Then now I am the king and you are the loser."

Du Jiang's wife Jiang sneered: "You, who is sitting on the well and watching the sky, you don't know how powerful the Fang family is. Your victory is completely temporary. When our troops land on the Daning Empire, you will die without being buried. Land."

Du Bian smiled and said: "Si Auntie, when is it, you have become a prisoner of the ranks, and you still have a stiff mouth? Still posing as your daughter in the Puyang Houfu?"

Du Jiang's wife Jiang clan raised her chin when she heard Du Bian's words.

Her personality has always been very strong, and the Puyang Hou Mansion has long since fallen, so in a sense, it is a high climb for him to marry the Fudu family, but he has always wanted to make a picture of her marriage. She has always put on the posture of Miss Marquis's mansion, and has never been outdone.

"Du Bian, I know what you mean?" Mrs. Du Jiang sneered, "Before you were a **** in Du's house, bullied by everyone, and looked down upon by everyone. Now you feel that you are developed, so you want to be in Du People show up in front of home. Want to see me begging for mercy, want me to beg you to indulge in you. I tell you, don’t dream. Even now, you are still the trash of that **** in my eyes as many years ago. , Even a dog in Du's house is not as good as a dog."

Du Bian smiled helplessly: "It's really not. The reason why I arrested you was just to test Du Jiang's reaction, and then to test Fang's true intentions. But the fourth aunt, you insisted on irritating me, and your body was damned. I can do it for you."

Then Du Bianhan said: "Jiang, you are involved in smuggling empire strategic materials, and you have empty shares in multiple fleets. Some maritime merchants are unwilling, and you are forced to jail with your power and occupy other fleets. Can this matter?"

Mrs. Du Jiang sneered, and she didn't even bother to answer.

"Bring it." Du Bian brought a stack of thick files.

Inside, it clearly stated how much Jiang's shareholding in that maritime merchant and how many strategic materials embargoed by the empire were smuggled.

Not only that, but Jiang's dossiers of taking bribes and occupying other people's fleets.

All witnesses are conclusive.

Seeing Jiang, she couldn't help being stunned. She thought that Du Bian had just arrested him just to be prestigious. She didn't expect that all the procedures were in place and the evidence was very complete.

"Four aunts, your charge can be big or small." Du Bian said: "If you get bigger, you will be hanged. If you get younger, you will be reduced to an official prostitute."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Du Jiang's face changed.

"Choose one." Du Bian said, "Si Aunt? Are you reduced to an official prostitute or hanged?"

"Dare you...Dare you..." Jiang screamed.

Du Bian waved his hand and said, "Send Madam Du on the road."

Suddenly, a warrior Li Jingsi stepped forward, and the rope was wrapped around Jiang's neck, and then tightened abruptly.

"Ah...ah..."

Jiang clan struggled constantly, his face flushed, and he roared in pain.

On the way here, she kept telling herself that she should never lose her power in front of Du Bian, never let him be proud, even if she died, she would not be afraid.

However, it turns out that when death comes, she will still tremble with fear, and all her bravery and aura will disappear.

Jiang looked at Du Bian desperately begging, waved desperately, indicating that he had something to say.

Du Bian raised his hand.

The samurai spoke loosely, and Jiang opened his mouth and breathed desperately.

This feeling of escaping from the dead is too precious.

"Du Bian, don't, don't kill me..." Jiang Shi tremblingly said.

Du Bian said: "Choose whether to be hanged or become an official prostitute."

Jiang's body trembled and said, "I, I don't want to die."

She really couldn't say the four words of becoming an official prostitute. After all, she was the lady of the Marquis Mansion, after all, she was the wife of the Du family.

Du Bian said: "Make it clear, do you want to be hanged or become an official prostitute? Don't talk about other nonsense."

Jiang Clan was ashamed to death, and trembling said: "I...I am willing to become an official prostitute."

After saying this, she completely collapsed and trampled on her bottom line of shame.

Du Bian smiled and said: "Look, you are not so proud at all, you have no spine at all. In the face of death, you would rather become a prostitute (prostitute)."

Jiang clan waited for a crack to open in the ground so that she could get in.

"No need." Du Bian said, "I am not a capital here, and there is no such thing as an official prostitute. Let's continue on the road."

Then, the samurai once again put the rope around Jiang's neck and tightened it suddenly.

This time, never let go.

Let Jiang's struggle any more, let Jiang's dance and dance again, and didn't let go.

Du Bian originally thought that Jiang's gaze would be extremely resentful, because Du Bian not only killed her, but also completely trampled on her dignity before killing her.

But not. Jiang's eyes on Du Bian were full of pleading and fear.

Until death!

In the face of death, she didn't even have the courage to hate.

...

This scene was always seen by Zhang Wenzhao, the next Jiange Hou.

He looked at Du Bian with complicated eyes, he wanted to yell at him, he wanted to be arrogant, and he wanted to be brave and fearless.

But in the end he said that was the case.

"Du Bian, you let me go back, and I promise to double the money back." Zhang Wenzhao said: "And in the future, I will cooperate with your military affairs."

In terms of words, it is still full of reservedness.

Du Bian ignored him.

Zhang Wenzhao's face trembled and said: "Du Bian, I am dead and it will not benefit you at all. My army will all fall into the hands of Fang. If you are smart enough, you should beat me thirty army sticks and then let me go back. , In this way your face will also have."

Du Bian still ignored him.

Zhang Wenzhao sighed and said, "Du Bian, it is impossible for you to see kneeling before you begging for mercy and confessing your mistakes, crying bitterly. After all, I am a veteran empire, and Song Que, Duke of Zhennan, calls me a brother."

Du Bian didn't speak anymore, turned around and walked away.

Several warriors took Zhang Wenzhao towards a place.

"Where to go?"

"where are we going?"

A warrior said: "Don't shout, it's almost there, it's almost there."

Zhang Wenzhao began to struggle, desperately using force.

His martial arts is high enough to have reached the quasi-grand master.

But it's no use. He has been poisoned by his concubine, and his body is sore and weak, and he has no strength at all.

I arrived at my destination soon.

Zhang Wenzhao saw a corpse. This was Du Bian's messenger. After being castrated by him, he died before returning to Baise City.

In front of this corpse, is a guillotine.

"You can't kill me, you can't kill me, I'm a marquis of the empire, you can't kill me without the will of the emperor."

"Go and tell Master Du Fan, don't kill me, don't kill me! Killing me, he is treason."

"Master Du Fan, don't kill me, don't kill me."

"Master Du Bian, I know that I was wrong, I was wrong! I will only look after you in the future, and my 80,000 army will completely obey your dispatch..."

"I was wrong, I was wrong..."

Jiange Hou Zhang Wenzhao howled and struggled desperately, but his head was still forced to the guillotine.

"Huh..."

Hand up the knife and drop.

Zhang Wenzhao's head rolled down, and his eyes were still full of fear before he died, full of desire for survival.

Really do not look down.

"Two fake tough guys, they pretend not to be afraid of death, and even they themselves think that they are not afraid of death." Du Bian said: "In comparison, Li Ruhai is a real hero."

...

Capital.

The former cabinet chiefs Fang Zhuo and Du Hui looked at the wide canal.

"Young Master's will is here." Fang Zhuo said.

Du Hui said: "You scolded us?"

Fang Zhuo said, "I didn't scold, but I was disappointed. I wrote eight characters, and I kept breaking."

Du Hui knelt down, and kowtowed towards the east, "The minister would like to follow the instructions of His Highness."

Fang Zhuo glanced at him, and then knelt down and said, "The minister would like to follow His Highness's teachings."

"Go into the palace!"

Then, the two attacked again to meet the emperor.

"The minister urges your Majesty to designate Nanjing as the accompanying capital, and set up six institutions in Nanjing." Du Hui said: "In addition to the cabinet, in some parts of the capital, Nanjing has also established a team."

Fang Zhuo, the former head of the cabinet, said: "The old minister heard that the Jurchen Empire is about to conquer the royal capital of the Dynasty. When the Kingdom of the Dynasty (Xian) falls, the King of the Dynasty (Xian) will immediately surrender. Then the Jurchen Empire will do its best to attack me. In the northern part of the Daning Empire, to take precautions, the veteran officials requested the establishment of Nanjing Liubu and other imperial function institutions.

Du Hui said, "From now on, the grain for water transportation and the grain for sea transportation will be divided into a lot. Twenty-five million taels of silver will also be escorted into Beijing."

In fact, it doesn't make much sense whether the emperor is allowed or not.

Regardless of whether the emperor is allowed or not, this matter has become a reality.

Du Hui didn't have the right to make this suggestion, it was still the will of the young monarch.

This means that the Fang family will completely withdraw from the northern side of the Daning Empire and fully operate the provinces of Jiangnan, Fujian, and Guangdong.

The emperor was silent for a long time, then sighed: "Quasi!"

Fang Zhuo bowed and said: "The ministers leave, your majesty take care."

Du Hui didn't speak, just bowed his hand, and then completely turned and left.

The prince's hands trembled in his sleeves!

What happened just now was very peaceful, but it meant a terrible thing.

That is the empire is truly completely divided.

This is equivalent to the establishment of Nanming in Nanjing before the Ming Dynasty was destroyed.

The emperor sighed: "Prince, do you understand?"

The prince said: "Understood, they completely withdrew from the north, that is... they want to make people bloodbath the entire north, and they want to use the Jurchen Empire to completely wipe out our Daning Empire, and then King Yan will succeed in enthroning the throne in Nanjing."

The emperor said: "Look, let's see Duke Yuan Teng's reaction. If Duke Yuan Teng does not attack me within half a month, it means that the young master of the other party has not made this determination. If Yuan Teng comes to see me, It means...In order to achieve this goal, they even gave up Yuan Teng completely."

The crown prince's face twitched.

This young master of the Eastern United Kingdom is really decisive.

We are ready to completely solve the Daning Empire!

It's just that he made this determination, which means that the entire North China has become a slaughterhouse.

The emperor sighed: "Get ready, Du Bian is going to Beijing."

...

Du Bian sent troops decisively, and then retreated more decisively.

Without delay for a day, all his 70,000 troops were withdrawn from Sichuan.

After that, 20,000 troops were stationed in Guiyang Mansion.

The fifty thousand army retreated to Zhenxi City (formerly Great Yan King City).

However, Li Zhan's 20,000 army did not completely withdraw from Hunan, but stationed in Yongzhou Mansion on the border of Guangxi and Hunan.

Li Zhan received an urgent letter.

He immediately recruited two generals under his command, Li Dao'an, who also had the rank of participating generals, and the other was a guerrilla general Li Wei, who was a direct line of Du Bian, and he was a nail in Li Zhan's army.

"Uncle, General Li Wei, the lord summoned me to go back." Li Zhan said: "The army will be handed over to you for the time being. Just remember to continue to mingle with the ordinary people in Hunan and continue to suppress the gentry and big households."

"Yes." Li Dao'an and Li Wei said.

"Young Master, what happened?" Li Dao groaned.

Li Zhan said, "Uncle, don't call my young master."

Then Li Zhan said: "If I expected it well, a real super decisive battle, even a battle for the national movement, should soon be ushered in. I just hope that the battlefield will not spread to our southwest, so that the lord has enough time to develop. "

...

The important military meeting of Du Bian was chosen to be held in Lianzhou Prefecture.

All the high-levels under Du Bian's command, none of them pull, all are there.

"Fang Shi retreated completely this time."

"Water transportation has resumed, and shipping has resumed."

"Twenty-five million taels of silver and countless grains were also escorted into Beijing."

"All the forces of the Fang family have completely withdrawn from the north. Fang Zhuo and Du Hui took King Yan to Nanjing and began to build the functional institutions of the imperial court such as Nanjing Six Departments."

"The Kingdom of Chao (Xian) has perished, and the King of Chao (Xian) surrendered is still hanged. The Jurchen Empire established a new King of Chao (Xian), only six years old."

"I just received a secret letter from Fei Crow from the capital. Duke Yuan Teng went to Beijing to meet his majesty without sleep. When he left, he knocked his head and saw blood. At the same time, Duke Xuanhua also went to Beijing to meet his majesty."

"The Junggar Khanate in the northwest has already invaded Northern Tartar, and both countries declare that they are the direct successors of the Golden Empire, and they must restore the glory of the Golden Empire."

"These are not accidents, these news put together, only prove one thing!"

"There will be a real super decisive battle. This is the battle for the national destiny of the Daning Empire."

Du Bian looked at Li Zhan and said, "According to your estimate, at what level will the scale of this war be?"

Li Zhan said: "The Jurchen Empire has conquered the Kingdom of Korea (Xian), conquered the Vadan Khanate, and has a strong army. If it is a war of destruction, the number of troops may exceed 300,000!"

The Jurchen empire in this world is much stronger than the Houjin in another history of the same period.

Therefore, the scale of this decisive battle will also far exceed another battle of Saarhu in the history of the earth.

"The Daning Empire's army in Liaodong is also around 300,000, plus the army of Xuanhua Town and Tongzhou Town, it will reach nearly 500,000." Li Zhan said: "This time, the Fang Faction unlocked the blockade of the capital, even two. The five million taels of silver were given to the emperor. This means that the Fang family let go and let the emperor prepare for this decisive battle. Duke Yuan Teng and Duke Xuanhua both entered Beijing urgently, indicating that the Fang family had completely given up on the big The two biggest warlords of the Ning Empire are ready to let the Daning Empire and the Jurchen Empire engage in a thorough battle of national destiny."

Du Bian said: "Will the Eastern United Kingdom take the opportunity to land in Guangdong and Guangxi and attack our southwestern town?"

Li Zhan was silent for a moment and said: "The official...I dare not judge."

Du Bian looked at his foster father Li Wenqiu.

"Don't dare to judge." Li Wenzhuo said: "If our Southwest is at a relatively high strategic level in the Eastern United Kingdom, then the Fang family in the overseas Eastern United Kingdom is likely to take the opportunity to land in Guangdong and Guangxi and attack our southwest. But if in their eyes, Daning If the empire’s strategic level is higher, their army is likely to be assembled in the south of the Yangtze River, ready to clean up the mess in the north."

Du Biandao: "Order all arsenals to fully replicate the twelve-pound artillery. Let Sikongye’s laboratory fully replicate the Holy Flame gunpowder. Collect food from Hunan and Guangxi. Further expand and train troops. Massive troops to defend the Lianzhou government. Wuzhou Prefecture, Guilin Prefecture."

"Yes!"

Du Bian looked towards Princess Yuzhen and said, "You will go south immediately, Princess Yuzhen, and head to the Kingdom of Annan. Our two armies will immediately establish a channel for exchanges, materials, weapons, and intelligence. And this will be conveyed to King Lichang and the Duke of Zhennan. They may face a... unprecedented battle!"

"Yes!" Princess Yuzhen said.

At this time, Du Bian had faintly sensed that His Royal Highness from the Eastern United Kingdom was playing an extremely huge chess game.

To the north, the civil war between the two khanates of the Golden Family led to the Jurchen Empire sweeping the Kingdom of Chao (Xian).

To the south, the final battle that the Annan Kingdom may face.

There are even places that Du Bian did not see. For example, the Kingdom of Siam has been completely listed and officially joined the United Kingdom of the East.

The Dongying Empire once again undermined, and under the control of a certain force, a terrible civil war has broken out.

The southwest of Dubian may enter a quiet period.

Because the young gentleman temporarily moved the chess piece elsewhere.

"Tomorrow, I will go to Beijing to see your Majesty." Du Bian said: "When I was away, all government affairs were dominated by foster father Li Wenyu, military power...Li Zhan ranked first, Fu Hongbing second, and Ji Shi third."

As soon as he said this, Li Zhan's body trembled violently, and he almost couldn't believe his ears.

The body was stiff for a while, and I wanted to make a fist to relieve it, but found that his hands were also a little stiff.

For a long time, Li Zhan said hoarsely: "Have a deed and do your best!"

That afternoon!

Great master class powerhouse, ancestor Li Lianting entered Lianzhou Mansion very unexpectedly.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are about to enter Beijing, don't worry about your safety, I am here to protect you." Old ancestor said.

Du Bian knelt down on both knees and said: "My boy pays homage to grandfather..."

Li Wenhuan, with a surprised look, knelt down and kowtowed, and said with a trembling, "Son, see my godfather."

The ancestors abruptly blocked Du Bian and prevented him from kneeling.

Then he sighed: "The changes in the vicissitudes of life have not been so great, Earl Du Bian, you have also cut off my son Wenyu's path of castration."

Old ancestors are still very good at making cold jokes.

...

Early the next morning, Du Bian rode the Wild Horse King, and under the protection of Li Lianting and hundreds of masters in the inner world, he left Lianzhou Prefecture and headed north for the capital.

Originally, it would be much faster to take a boat, but now the Daning Empire has lost control of the sea.

Just left Lianzhou Mansion.

Li Lianting suddenly shouted: "Which great master? Please show up?"

Not far away came Ji Lanting’s voice and said: "It’s not necessary to meet, I and Du Bian are tired of each other. The situation is dangerous, I will protect him from going north. Your Excellency Du Bian, the situation is more complicated than you think, please be sure to do it as soon as possible. Go to the North Mingjian Sect."

Then, Du Bian rushed all the way, without rest, going north to Beijing.

...

After entering Beijing, without any rest, Du Bian entered the palace in a hurry.

With the Fang Faction unlocking the blockade of the capital and the restoration of water transportation, the capital has been restored to life.

However, it is not prosperous, and it seems particularly quiet.

"Counter Du Bian, the town superintendent to the west of the town, came to Beijing to meet your Majesty. All the people in front of you, let the road clear!

"flash!"

"flash!"

Thousands of troops immediately appeared on the road ahead of Du Bian, closed the road ahead of time, and cleared the street ahead of time.

Countless people stood on both sides of the street and pointed to Du Bian excitedly and said, "This is Lord Du Bian."

"Master Du Bian is mighty!"

"Master Du Bian will live a hundred years old, and Master Du Bian will be the father of all generations!"

Du Bian walked all the way towards the palace, no hundreds of people bowed to salute by the side of the road.

This made him very surprised. When did he have such a good reputation in the capital? His reputation in the Southwest is so stinky, he can even stop crying in Fuzhou City.

Of course he knew that under the emperor's propaganda, he Dubian had become the great savior of the capital. This time, the reason why the enemy unblocked the blockade and the millions of people in the capital were able to survive is entirely due to the kindness and credit of Dubian.

After entering the palace!

Du Bian was outside the study, knelt down and said: "Chen Du Bian, pay homage to your majesty the emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

There was a pause in the study, and almost a pause for breathing.

Then a quick step came out.

Then the next second, he was helped up.

After only one year, the emperor was really old, completely skinny, and his hair was not only white, but he also lost a lot.

He supported Du Bian's arm, looked at Du Bian's face for a long time, and said for a long time: "My child, I haven't seen you in a year, you...you seem to have grown too much, it's just that I'm too incompetent... Only when you are young, you have to take on such a heavy responsibility."

Du Bian's eye circles were hot, and he was speechless.

Both of them were speechless for a long time.

It was the emperor who spoke first, and he smiled and said: "You must be very strange, why didn't you promote your title in my imperial decree, nor canonize you as the governor of the border town, right?"

The emperor said: "Yun Zhu, decree, canonized Du to become Marquis of Zhenxi, Governor of the town west of the town."

"It is proposed to remove the post of Governor of Gaoting and Guangdong, and canonize it as Governor of Fujian and Guangdong."

"It is planned that UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will build the Huguang Governor's Mansion, and cabinet minister Wang Jianshuyao will lead the post of governor! Du Bian temporarily takes over the important affairs of the Huguang army."

When these words came out, Du Bian was completely stunned.

Not only is the border town superintendent, but also the military and political power?

Previously, it was only military affairs in the three provinces, but now we need to add the government affairs in Huguang?

This... This is probably the most powerful official in the entire Daning Empire.

Then, the emperor's expression became a little weird and said: "Du Bian, I heard Ning Zongwu say that you are not a real eunuch, you may return to being a normal man, and at this time you already have a man's yang energy, but so ?"

Du Bian was shocked.

This time, the emperor... is it really going to give a marriage? !
