The next day, the spring rain fell on the bluestone slabs.

Jiang Yueyang and Lu Yunting each held an umbrella and walked side by side towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The officials passing by them walked in a hurry because of the rain.

They walked slowly and leisurely, forming a sharp contrast with others and creating a beautiful landscape of their own.

The officials passing by glanced at it unconsciously and sighed inwardly that the moon has its phases, and people have their joys and sorrows.

It is so rare for two people to be in love with each other.

As the rain got heavier, Jiang Yueyang and Lu Yunting had no choice but to quicken their pace. Soon, they arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

As soon as they sat down, Emperor Yuan arrived.

As soon as he arrived, he asked Li Fuquan to read out an imperial edict, the content of which was to reward Lu Yunting, General Zhang and others.

Lu Yunting was conferred the title of Marquis of Jifeng, a hereditary title, and in addition he received a thousand taels of gold and silver and two boxes of jewels.

The reward General Zhang received was a promotion to a higher rank, a mansion, a thousand taels of gold and silver, and two boxes of jewels.

On the surface, Lu Yunting received a greater reward, but in fact, General Zhang received more.

Because Lu Yunting's title originally belonged to him.

Others received due rewards according to the size of their military achievements, from Lu Yunting to the soldiers, everyone received one.

In addition, in order to prevent soldiers stationed on the border from being unable to reunite with their families for a long time, a three-year rotation system will be implemented for soldiers stationed on the border starting next month.

Afterwards, Emperor Yuan and his civil and military officials discussed how to deal with the Turks.

The left prime minister stepped out first and said, "Your Majesty, Daxia never kills prisoners indiscriminately. I suggest relocating most of the Eastern Turks to the interior of our country and managing them."

"Then where do you think we should place them?"

The left prime minister immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I think we can place them in the area between Youzhou and Lingzhou."

"Tell me what you think."

"I think that our dynasty can set up several military governorships in the area from Youzhou to Lingzhou and send officials to manage them."

Emperor Yuan pondered and asked: "Youzhou and Lingzhou cannot accommodate all the Turks, how should the remaining people be settled?"

"Others will stay in their original places of residence, but in the short term, it is impossible for them to fully obey the management of our personnel.

Therefore, I believe that it is possible to establish prefectures and states in Eastern Turkestan, set up a military governor's office, appoint Turkish nobles as military governors, and give them some autonomy to rule the local tribes.

But they must accept our dynasty's enthronement and jurisdiction, and pay tribute to our dynasty regularly!"

After listening to his words, Emperor Yuan asked thoughtfully: "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

"Among the Turkic nobles, I initially think that Tuli Khan, Ashina Sibo, Ashina Falcon... and others can be appointed as governors." The left prime minister listed several Turkic nobles to him.

Emperor Yuan originally wanted to use a conciliatory approach to deal with the Turks, and the left prime minister's suggestion was exactly what he wanted.

However, he still glanced at the civil and military officials, and asked, "Do you have any other ideas, my dear ministers?"

Lu Yunting stepped out slowly, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, although what the Left Prime Minister said has merit, the Turks are ambitious and if we give them too much autonomy, there may be chaos in the future.

I think that we can incorporate some of the elite Turkic troops into our army and disperse them to various places for garrison, which can not only weaken their power but also strengthen our military strength.

As for the resettlement area, we can choose some undeveloped areas in the south and let them cultivate the land there. This will not only increase our output, but also keep them away from their homeland and less likely to cause trouble. "

Emperor Yuan nodded after hearing this and said, "Both of your suggestions are good. Why not combine the two, combining both strength and flexibility? What do you think?"

"Your Majesty is wise." Civil and military officials responded in unison.

"Then it's settled!"

And so, the treatment of the Turks was decided.

Emperor Yuan glanced at Lu Yunting and the left prime minister and said, "Let the two of you take charge of this matter."

"I obey the order."

Afterwards, Emperor Yuan looked at Guo Yuanzheng and asked him how the people in the Imperial Hospital were doing in learning the art of witchcraft.

Yuanzheng Guo said that including himself, three other doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau have gradually mastered the art of witchcraft and are preparing to find someone to test the results.

When Jiang Yueyang heard what Guo Yuanzheng said, she couldn't help but sigh with the system: [I didn't expect that the people in the Imperial Hospital really learned the witchcraft! ]

[The doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau are not stupid. They are willing to study hard and are very interested in witchcraft. It is only a matter of time before they learn it.

But if they want to master the art of witchcraft, given their talent, it will probably take them more than ten or twenty years to do so. 】The system is not optimistic about them.

Emperor Yuan did not feel disappointed after hearing what the system said, but felt much more at ease.

Gu magic can be both good and evil. If Guo Yuanzheng and others learn it thoroughly, they might develop inappropriate thoughts.

For example, using witchcraft to control the king.

When Jiang Yueyang was still alive, he didn't need to worry about them using witchcraft to cause trouble, but what if it was a hundred years later?

Therefore, Guo Yuanzheng and his friends only need to learn enough witchcraft to be useful. Learning it too well may actually be a hidden danger.

Considering this, Emperor Yuan looked at Yuanzheng Guo and nodded with satisfaction. "Some time ago, Miss Ling'er tried the medical technique of blood transfusion on death row prisoners. Yuanzheng Guo might be able to follow suit."

"Yes, that is what I planned as well."

At this time, Jiang Yueyang's inner voice came out again, [Little melon, do you think that witchcraft is good or bad? ]

[Gu magic can save people or harm people. Whether it is good or bad depends on the person who uses it, but people generally believe that Gu magic is an evil magic that harms people. ]

Jiang Yueyang sighed, "It's no wonder that people have such thoughts. After all, as far as we know, the witchcraft we know about is either to confuse people's minds or to control their hearts. It's scary to think about it."

[Host, don't be afraid. With me here, no poison can control your consciousness. ]

As one man and one woman were talking, there was a loud bang and thunder, which startled everyone.

Jiang Yueyang patted his chest and said: [I'm so scared, why is there thunder? ]

She secretly looked back outside and saw that the rain had stopped for some reason. She was speechless. [It thundered after the rain. How naughty.]

As her voice fell, the thunder seemed to have heard her words and exploded two more times.

Jiang Yueyang was frightened by the thunder again, and snorted: [Try to hit me again!]

Just give it a try, and another thunder fell from the sky.

Jiang Yueyang: [Hit another one if you dare! ]

Boom, boom, boom! Brother Jinglei courageously struck three extremely loud thunders.

Jiang Yueyang suddenly felt strange, and then smiled slyly after thinking about something, [How nice. ]

System: […Host, you are so boring. ]

The civil and military officials nodded secretly. They were not bored, but chatting with the thunder and lightning in the sky!

Jiang Yueyang: [I think it can hear what I say.]

【You think too much. 】

【It can just hear me.】

The system sighed helplessly upon seeing this, [Host, let me tell you a secret. ]
