Long Zhengyang, Hu Youshan, Guo Xiaozheng, Huangshi, and all the civil and military officials of Yanqi Kingdom gathered here.
Prepare to meet Du Qi.
Long Zhengyang had a solemn expression on his slightly youthful face, but there was still a hint of helplessness in the depths of his eyes. Although he has decided to submit to Du Qi, no matter what, he is the lord of the Yanqi Kingdom, losing his throne and power, no matter who it is, he feels bad.
The rest of the civilian and military generals are different.
These people seem very relaxed.
For them, the surrender of Yanqi Kingdom did not actually have much impact. They were still officials in Yanqi Kingdom, but they were transferred from Long Zhengyang's command to Du Qi's command.
Guo Xiaozheng had a confident smile on his face at the moment.
For him, another thing has been accomplished.
When the army led by Du Qi appeared, Hu Youshan saw it clearly, and took the initiative to say: "Master, let's go, we will go forward to meet you."
Long Zhengyang said: "Let's go!"
He led all the civil and military officials, and followed him. When there were still about ten steps away from Du Qi, Long Zhengyang stopped, took the tray with seals and military amulets from the hands of the attendants, held the tray high and said, "Long Zhengyang, I pay my respects to His Royal Highness King Pingxi."
"Meet King Pingxi."
All civil and military officials bowed and saluted.
Everyone looked solemn.
Du Qi got off his horse and led Mo Ledo forward. With a wave of his hand, a soldier stepped forward to take the tray. Du Qize personally supported Long Zhengyang and said with a smile, "Long Qing, please get up."
"My lords, please stand up!"
Du Qi's voice was thick and loud, and it was clearly heard by everyone.
Long Zhengyang and the civil and military officers stood up together. When they looked at Du Qi, their first feeling was that Du Qi was young, too young. Because of Du Qi's age, he was younger than Long Zhengyang.
Long Zhengyang felt even more emotional in his heart.
At Du Qi's age, he had nothing. Even now, although he is the head of the Yanqi Kingdom, in fact, he has no prestige because he has just taken power not long ago. Furthermore, he did not improve the environment of Yanqi State, and could not solve the plight of Yanqi State, because Yanqi State was still exploited by the Turks, and it was difficult everywhere.
What about Du Qi?
He has made great achievements in Datang.
Was named King Pingxi.
As soon as he arrived in the Western Regions, he quickly captured Suzhou, then stabilized Guazhou and Shazhou, and captured Yizhou, Gaochang Kingdom and other places again. Now his own Yanqi Kingdom is also submitting.
Du Qi's rise is too fast.
As the saying goes, people are more angry than people, and Long Zhengyang was even more disappointed because he saw Du Qi like this.
Even, there is a feeling of being held back.
He can only look up to Du Qi.
When Long Zhengyang met Hu Youshan early this morning, he had already received Hu Youshan's earnest entrustment, and he would not lose his temper. He stood up straight, and Long Zhengyang said: "King Pingxi has finally come, I, Yanqi Kingdom, suffered from the Turkic scourge."
"The whole country of Yanqi has suffered from the Turks for a long time."
"Everyone is waiting for the king's teacher to rescue Yanqi Kingdom. Now King Pingxi led his army into Yanqi Kingdom, swept up the Turks, and rescued thousands of people in our Yanqi Kingdom. You don¡¯t have to worry about being robbed.¡±
Long Zhengyang said with tears in his eyes, "Prince Pingxi, I have been waiting for you."
Du Qi looked at Long Zhengyang's appearance, but laughed in his heart.
What an exaggerated acting skill.
Du Qi could tell at a glance that Long Zhengyang's sadness was fake, but Long Zhengyang himself had to say so in order to leave a good impression in front of Du Qi.
Du Qi didn't expose it, and took advantage of the situation: "Although the king was in Yizhou before, he didn't have sufficient preparations, so he could only let the Turks make trouble. Now that the Turkic army has been destroyed, Tong Yehu has been captured alive, and the whole Yanqi Kingdom no longer has to worry about being attacked." Invasion."
As soon as these words fell, Long Zhengyang burst into praise.
The rest of the officials also praised it for a while.
They all praised Du Qi for being wise and powerful, and all praised Du Qi for being extremely powerful.
It's all compliments.
Du Qi didn't feel complacent when he heard these words. To him, a mere Yanqi country is just a state, and it doesn't improve Du Qi's strength so much.
Just icing on the cake.
After Du Qi and the others finished their compliments, he continued: "Dragon!During his stay in Yanqi Kingdom, the Lord devoted himself to the development of people's livelihood. Although there were Turks oppressing the country, for Yanqi Kingdom, it ensured the survival of the people, and the Lord made great efforts to govern. This King admires it a lot. "
Long Zhengyang said: "Your Highness is absurd."
Du Qi continued: "The lord of the country obeys the heaven and responds to people, and the whole country surrenders to the Tang Dynasty, and serves the king. This king is very pleased. In view of the illustrious achievements made by the lord of the country, the king conferred the title of the lord of the country as King Yanqi, honored Enjoy the royal title."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Long Zhengyang immediately bowed to thank him.
It doesn't matter who he is, the prince of Yanqi Kingdom, but if he keeps the prince, he will be rich and honored. So Du Qi's arrangement made Long Zhengyang completely relieved.
Du Qi's arrangement for Long Zhengyang is a continuation of Gaochang King Ju Wentai's arrangement, but Ju Wentai can be hereditary.
Ju Wentai was the first to eat crabs.
The treatment is different.
In the follow-up, it will naturally be gradually weakened, and even in the future, many people who surrender to Du Qi may not even get the prince. Because the further he got to the back, the stronger Du Qi became, and he didn't care much about the surrender of ordinary people.
Du Qi changed the subject and continued: "The rest of you, each perform their own duties. Although after this king enters Yanqi State, Yanqi State will be renamed Yanqi State, and the officials will also make certain adjustments. However, the officials from top to bottom of Yanqi State, As long as he is a down-to-earth person, he will be properly arranged and will not be dismissed without reason. Please rest assured on this point."
After these words came out, everyone became excited and shouted Pingxi Wang Shengming again.
They all praised Du Qi highly.
Because Du Qi's decision gave them the opportunity to continue to be officials, everyone was relieved.
Du Qi glanced around and knew that the Yanqi officials were all relaxed, which was what he did on purpose. In order for Du Qi to enter the Yanqi Kingdom and win the hearts and minds of the people, he must first stabilize these officials and implement them from top to bottom.
This is fundamental.
After Yanqi Prefecture is completely controlled by Du Qi, he will gradually adjust and make changes step by step. Such a change will not affect Du Qi's adjustment to Yanqi Prefecture.
Du Qi arranged officials, and looked around again.
Around the outside of the city, many people gathered.
Countless people watched the fun.
Regarding the matter of Yanqi Kingdom's submission to Du Qi, Hu Youshan had already arranged to issue a notice to inform the people of the news, and at the same time appease the people to ensure that the people would not resist.
After the common people knew that Long Zhengyang and others had come to greet him, they spread the word, and many people came to see it.
Du Qi raised his hand and pressed down to signal the officials to be quiet. Although there were many people talking about it, the voices were not loud. The folks have three chapters."
"First, the soldiers under my command, Du Qi, will never disturb the people, let alone invade the people. As long as there are soldiers who break the law and discipline, and any soldiers who want to run amok, you can directly come to the king to complain, and the king will make the decision for you. "
"Secondly, this king has taken down the Turkic Khan Ye Hu. From then on, the territory of Yanqi Prefecture will never be invaded by foreign enemies, and will never be bullied by Turkic people again."
"Thirdly, this king is in charge of Yanqi Prefecture, exempting all people in Yanqi Prefecture from agricultural tax and corvee for three years. However, it is illegal to collect agricultural tax and levy people to do corvee."
Du Qi said: "These three items are my promise to the folks, and people and gods can learn from each other."
"Long live King Pingxi!"
In the crowd, someone suddenly shouted.
Following this cry, the common people suddenly joined in. For a moment, the voice of Long Live King Pingxi spread from point to surface, and quickly spread to the surroundings.
Countless people cheered.
If Du Qi said big words, the people would not take them seriously. For example, the first and second articles are not very useful, but the third article of Du Qi is to really reduce the burden of the people, so that countless people can breathe a sigh of relief .
This is a real benefit.
So Du Qi won the support of the people in an instant. Without this, all is in vain. Du Qi had grasped the temperament of the people and knew that the people wanted benefits, so Du Qi specially gave up the benefits.
For Du Qi, although the agricultural tax and corvee in Yanqi Prefecture have certain value, in fact, Du Qi doesn't like the money. He has a business system, can make money with money, and is supported by money houses , enough to run flawlessly.
Especially wherever Du Qi went, the business system followed. At that time, Yanqi Prefecture's business will earn more money than tax revenue, so Du Qi dares to benefit the people.
