Another important piece of information revealed by Yang Jun was about the accountability of the imperial court after the counterinsurgency. This is also what Lin Jue is most worried about at this moment. In Lin Jue's heart, the reason for this rebellion has long been clear. Hai Dongqing also confessed to his attempt to collude with the Liao people to destroy the Great Zhou. It can be said that this was a long-planned rebellion in which hostile forces inside and outside the Great Zhou Dynasty colluded with each other. But that's only one side of the problem. Tracing back to the source, there was indeed a problem within Da Zhou, and it was a big problem. There was a big problem with the policy of the imperial court, which gave Hai Dongqing the opportunity and soil to use the cult to develop and grow and then rebel. This problematic policy is the result of a vigorous change in the past two years. It is a strategy to win over the people and change the law in a hurry for quick success and quick profit, regardless of the people's livelihood. It is precisely because the implementation of the "Changping New Law" and the "Employment Law" is too hasty and profitable, and it is too tough and brutal in its terms and implementation, which has led to the hardship of the people's lives and the accumulation of dissatisfaction in their hearts, which have been taken advantage of by others, so that the rebellion of the Qingjiao has occurred. In order to investigate responsibility, it is necessary to investigate the responsibility of the new law, and to investigate the responsibility of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, as well as those who have changed the law.

In other words, Yang Jun's warning to himself is meaningful, he is warning himself not to talk too much about this matter. He knew his relationship with Fang Dunru, so he deliberately pointed out to warn himself not to do anything with him. That's because he already knows who the DPRK and China are holding accountable, and he already knows what will happen next. And he himself must be a member of the impeachment and accountability of the other party Dunru and Yan Zhengsu. Originally, Yang Jun was neutral, but Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru's previous push for a new law on military reform had angered Yang Jun. Yang Jun said that whoever stretched out his hand to his one-third of an acre of land, he would never agree. Therefore, Yang Jun's current attitude must be against the new law. This time, he will definitely side with the opposition to impeach and impeach Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu, so he will warn himself in advance.

The contradiction in Lin Jue's heart is here, although he also understands that Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru are responsible, but after all, they are determined to serve the country and are not selfish. And the new law can't be said to have no effect at all, the Great Zhou Dynasty increased taxes, many major things that had been delayed for a long time had money to do, and many mergers and apprentices were stopped, which was still beneficial to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Moreover, from a personal emotional point of view, Lin Jue couldn't bear to watch the two adults being attacked by a group, and even convicted for it. Even if Fang Dunru was ruthless to himself, Lin Jue couldn't be as ruthless as him. Not to mention the relationship between the master and Huanqiu.

What should I do in this matter? This is where Lin Jue's mood is irritable and gloomy. If the two adults were held accountable, what would happen to them? Lu Zhongtian, they are not good people, they are masters who will not stop until they die. Since the change of the law, he has been robbed of the limelight by two adults, will he give up easily this time? I'm afraid the tempers of the two adults are not easy to get along, and I'm afraid that it will be another pot of porridge in the court. What position should the emperor stand?

Even the cold autumn wind could not calm Lin Jue's feverish mind, and he paced around the city for a long time, but it was still difficult to sort out his head. It wasn't until night fell that Bai Bing personally went to the city to invite him, and he sighed and followed Bai Bing down to the city.

……

The next morning, Guo Mian and Guo Kun returned to Beijing as a whole. Lin Jue was appointed as the new pacification envoy of Jingxi Road, but he could only watch them leave. According to Lin Jue's request, Wei Dakui and five hundred cavalry were left to follow Lin Jue's escort, and the rest of the army was triumphant.

Guo Mian was a little unhappy, because Lin Jue did not agree to his request, and asked him to escort all the prisoners and bandits back to Beijing with his triumphant army. What he meant was that he was going to take these more than 10,000 bandit captives back to Beijing, so that his father, the emperor, the hundred officials and the people of the capital could see his results, so that he could be in the limelight. Lin Jue obviously couldn't agree to his request, which was not operational, and it also violated Lin Jue's original intention of reforming and pacifying the post-war order. Lin Jue is now a pacification envoy of the Qin Mission, and he has the right to speak in this matter.

In fact, yesterday Lin Jue had an exchange with Yang Jun on the issue of the prisoners of the bandits, and Lin Jue expressed the hope that he could reform most of the bandits and release them. After all, what is needed after the war is pacification and gentleness, not greater panic. Although these bandits are guilty, they cannot be beaten to death with a stick. Lin Jue's proposal was to release the crime and monitor the idea of labor. It is to release them to return home and reunite with their families when they are sure that they are all repentant.

Most of them are young and strong laborers, and their imprisonment is actually ruining the livelihood of many families, which can lead to worse consequences. Rather than this, it would be better to let them go back to support their families, which was also a factor in stabilizing the post-war social situation. But these people are indeed criminals who rebel against the imperial court, and this cannot be ignored. Therefore, they should be placed under residential surveillance, under the supervision and surveillance of the local government, and only allowed to have a very small space for movement. Once there is misconduct, they will be arrested immediately, and the crime will be punished with one more degree.

Yang Jun praised Lin Jue's idea, and Lin Jue's method solved many problems. The first is the issue of livelihood and social stability for many families. The second is that it has saved a lot of manpower and material resources, after all, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to imprison all the more than 10,000 bandits. Moreover, after the turmoil, the local government can only be basically lost, and it will take time for the functional departments of prison justice to be established, and how to settle so many people is a big problem. There are also security concerns with the concentration of guards. So this kind of release under surveillance is somewhat akin to holding them in their own homes. I have to say, this is a very creative idea.

Yang Jun promised Lin Jue to explain the matter to the emperor after returning to Beijing, and made a statement to the emperor on his behalf, indicating the necessity of doing so, which would be of great benefit to post-war pacification. Of course, before the permission of the imperial court, these people can only be temporarily suppressed by the Guangji Army in Xingren Mansion for introspection and repentance, and carry out the transformation of the depths of their souls. After the imperial court allowed it, Lin Jue could do what he wanted.

Therefore, Lin Jue couldn't let Guo Mian come to Hu, and he couldn't let him escort more than 10,000 people to the capital because he satisfied his vanity. However, in order to take care of Guo Mian's emotions, Lin Jue handed over more than 700 die-hard elements who had committed the most heinous crimes and unrepented among the captives to Guo Mian and brought them back to the capital. These guys have all committed crimes, and they have been exposed as murderers. All kinds of evil deeds of fornication and arson are unreformable people. Sending them back to the capital to accept the fate of beheading them was not only a punishment for them, but also what the imperial court needed to deter the world after the rebellion was put down. Guo Chong asked the bandit leader Hai Dongqing to give it to him himself, and if he didn't give him some people to kill him to vent his anger, I am afraid that the emperor will not be able to get out of this evil breath in his heart.

Lin Jue asked Sun Dayong to follow the army back to Beijing, not that he didn't need Sun Dayong by his side, but that Sun Dayong returned to Beijing this time to shoulder a task. Lin Jue got up in the middle of the night last night to write a long letter, and Sun Dayong returned to Beijing with this letter. This letter was addressed to Fang Dunru, and Lin Jue thought about it for a while and felt that he couldn't sit idly by and watch the two face accountability, so the purpose of writing this letter was to elaborate on the root cause of the rebellion, pointing out that this rebellion was not unrelated to the new law. The imperial court is about to be held accountable, so remind them to take the initiative to ask the emperor for guilt first, and turn passive into active, maybe the situation will be better. It is also recommended that they immediately amend some of the provisions of the new law, and that they should change the brutal and brutal practices in their implementation to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

This letter was written by Lin Jue without reservation. He wrote down what he thought, saw and thought on it, and Lin Jue really hoped that the two adults could read it and understand what he was saying, instead of being obsessed. Lin Jue is a persuasion to put himself in the position of a Great Zhou minister, and that is all he can do at present. Lin Jue believed that if the two adults felt the slightest feeling, they would understand their hard work, and they would realize the situation they were facing and the mistakes they had made.

After bidding farewell to Guo Mian and Guo Kun's army, in the afternoon of the same day, Lin Jue and Bai Bing led Wei Dakui's 500 cavalry from Xingren Mansion and carried 80 members of the confessional group to various places on Jingxi Road to begin his duties as a pacifying envoy.

……

The capital, since the uprising of the bandits, the capital has fallen into a strange atmosphere. The people of this generation have never experienced a large-scale rebellion in the territory of the Great Zhou. Some old people naturally have gone through the past of the rebellion of the Western Xia, but after all, the Western Xia is the Western Xia, and the sense of identity in the hearts of the people is not high. The rebellion in that land is not the same as the rebellion that occurred in the hinterland of the Central Plains of the Great Zhou.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has not had a large-scale rebellion in the interior for so many years, but this time it has broken the precedent, which inevitably arouses all kinds of suspicions and thoughts in the hearts of the people.

Some people believe that this is a sign of the decline of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for more than 150 years, the soldiers are strong, the country is rich and the people are strong, when will there be such a thing as an inland rebellion? The only explanation is the decline of the country. As the so-called prosperity must decline, this is the principle of all things, even if the mouth shouts the slogan of the Great Zhou Guozuo for thousands of years, it is inevitable to accept the reality. It's just that...... This decay seems to have come too quickly. It's been less than ten years, and it feels like a cloud. Life is not as good as day by day, and the well-off family has to live a careful life. It is like those years in the past, when money and silver flowed, and there was enough food and clothing at home, I didn't feel the need to calculate my life at all, because every day was full of confidence in the future, and the whole Great Zhou was full of vitality at that time, which was like now, trembling and walking on thin ice.

During the counterinsurgency campaign, news of the war in the city was also frequent. Gossip about the Jingbei battlefield and the battle on Jingxi Road flew through the streets, and there was a version every day. According to some sporadic sources, a variety of different messages have been derived.
