I Persuade People With Reason

Chapter 23: Tyrant 23

Views:

There was silence in the hall.

All the ministers couldn't help breathing quickly.

Didn't you smile lightly

"Sounds like a good idea."

Under the ecstatic gaze of the emperor, he suddenly took a step forward.

"Clang—"

The "dazzling" sword light flashed in an instant, and the whole bedroom seemed to be illuminated. Blood spattered out.

"Hmm!" The emperor stared at him in disbelief with wide-eyed eyes, "You... ho... ho..."

Yuan Buwei never responded positively to the half-day drunken incident before, which seemed to give the emperor the illusion that he cherished his reputation and had some scruples, but the facts proved that this was not the case

A few unsatisfactory syllables came out from the throat, and the emperor's chest heaved violently a few times before returning to calm. The pair of round eyes gradually lost all the spirit.

-he died.

Everyone in the hall was stunned, watching this scene stupidly.

But Yuan Buwei put the sword back into its sheath and turned around.

His pitch-black robe was stained with a few splashes of blood, his black hair was tied up by a jade crown, and the hanging silk sash was faintly visible in the hair, revealing a clean and neat face. Eyebrows are sparse, like clouds and snow.

Who would have thought that such a person would make such a crazy move

Before, he said he was laughing at Yanyan, but before he stopped laughing, he suddenly exploded. At one moment, he didn't blink his hand to kill Junfu, his movements were sharp and fierce, but at the next moment, it seemed as if nothing had happened, and his expression was so calm that it was terrifying.

"ah!"

Empress Zhou's scream broke the deadly silence in the hall.

Just now? She was sitting on the edge of the bed at the place closest to the emperor, and watched everything happen. The warm blood smeared on her face, causing her emotions to collapse instantly.

"How could you kill him? How could you kill him?!" Her expression was almost insane, and she suddenly rushed towards Yuan Buwei, "It's obvious to everyone that your son? Is it a stink for thousands of years?"

Yuan Buwei kicked out almost subconsciously.

Empress Zhou suddenly hit the bed.

Wasn't that why? After realizing it, he calmly called out, "Come here."

"Father died, and mother was overly sad and fainted, first? Send mother back to the palace."

He uttered a nonsense without typing out the manuscript, and immediately the court lady who knew the trick stepped forward, covered the queen's mouth, and sent the "fainted" queen out.

The ministers couldn't help feeling cold.

"What are you all still standing there for?" Yuan Yuan glanced at them in surprise, and condemned bitterly. Shall there be no rest in the ground?"

All the ministers couldn't help but look at him? He hesitated to speak.

... If His Majesty really cannot rest in peace, who is it because of, Prince? Is Your Majesty really confused

But they really dare not agree? A prince who dared to kill the king and father himself in front of the courtiers and the queen is facing the line.

In the past history books, even the most brutal kings only imprisoned their biological fathers, forced them to commit suicide, and finally pulled a fig leaf for themselves.

For the emperor who cherishes his feathers, the ministers have ten thousand ways to persuade them. Like this? It was the first time they met a ruthless person who didn't care about his reputation at all.

After a moment of silence, Prime Minister Su's knees softened and he knelt down, followed by the others.

"A country cannot be without a king for a day. Please choose a day for the prince to ascend the throne."

Yuan Buwei glanced around, and suddenly looked at the only person present who was still standing. That was the historian responsible for recording daily life notes. At this time, this person was writing dutifully, but his right hand kept Trembling slightly.

Wasn't it like this? Looking quietly, his hands trembled even more, but he didn't stop writing because of it.

"What are you afraid of? I won't kill you." Yuan Buwei looked at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Just write slowly."

The historian paused for a moment, then raised his head suddenly, and boldly looked directly at Yuan Buwei: "Your Highness, with what you have done today, you will not be afraid of the history, and the name will be passed down for thousands of years?"

"So what?" Yuan Buwei said lightly.

"I'm notorious, I'm responsible for it. What's wrong with future generations?"

Everything that happened today has been recorded. As for who wants to kill this historian more, it should be the first emperor, right

If he didn't care about his reputation, he wouldn't have to secretly plot against the prince? In the end, all his calculations were exposed in the history books.

... Tsk tsk, what a disaster :).

It was not because I silently sympathized with him for a second in my heart.

Not long after, there was the sound of armor clashing outside the hall, and a figure wearing black armor and a long knife walked in, with murderous aura still lingering around him.

He lowered his head and knelt in front of Yuan Buwei.

Looking at this person who appeared suddenly, the officials were terrified.

As we all know, the crown prince? His Royal Highness cannot achieve today's illustrious military exploits without the two most elite troops under his command. One is the Zhenshan Army, and the other is the Red Owl Army.

The former has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and orders are strictly prohibited. Siege cities and lands, invincible; the latter has only 3,000 people, but each of them is a one-in-a-thousand expert. Used as a scout, assassination, and surprise attack, it is quite effective as a surprise army.

This person is exactly the leader of the Red Owl Army, Zhao Baitu.

It is said that this person was born in a farming family and had no name at first, but now this name was taken later. Just from the name, it can be seen how cruel this person is.

... Prince? His Highness actually quietly transferred the Red Owl Army back to the capital. What is he going to do? !

The officials didn't dare to breathe, they just listened to Zhao Baitu knelt there, and said the familiar names one by one in his flat tone.

"Your Highness, the last general is lucky. A group of traitors have been taken down, waiting for His Highness to deal with them."

Yuan Buwei nodded, and once again pulled out the blame king Qin Mo: "According to the investigation of the Imperial City Department, these rebels were all involved in the poisoning case of the Xian? Emperor. The Xian? Emperor is dead, so what are they still alive for? "

He lightly dropped a word.

"Kill them all."

The traitor he was talking about was clearly the mainstay of the Jiangnan family, and he was also the minister who opposed the various government orders that he did not act most fiercely some time ago. It was not too early to find out a pile of evidence against them, even if they died ten times, it would not be an exaggeration.

The officials were shocked on the spot.

... who put the poison on the first emperor, even if the crown prince didn't admit it, who doesn't know? What's more, just now? This prince? But blatantly killed the first? Emperor, turned around and used the first? ?

Immediately, someone in the hall wanted to stand up and refute, but was caught by Prime Minister Su's sharp hand, and he quickly pressed down and fell heavily to the ground.

Even if there were friends of Prime Minister Su among those people, he still said loudly unswervingly: "Your Majesty is wise! If you want to come first? The emperor is under the nine springs, and I am very happy!"

This elderly prime minister had reddish eye circles, and his expression and tone were full of emotion. It seemed that he was really moved by Yuan Buwei's filial behavior.

The original inaction glanced over the kneeling officials, and he sighed in disappointment.

His soft sigh was like a heavy hammer knocking down, and it woke up those ministers who were still angry and tried to stand up and argue. They all trembled and adjusted their postures, kneeling more standardly.

Unexpectedly, there was not a strong minister who stood up and would rather die than surrender to fight against the tyrant himself. I didn't feel deeply disappointed in my heart.

He waved his hand and strode out of the hall.

The outside of the hall was already surrounded by the forbidden army, and the black crowd divided into two sides, watching him respectfully as he left.

From the original sudden violent attack?, the system 999 fell into a state of confusion. Before it could open its mouth, it was mercilessly locked into the small black room by the host.

When it was released by the host again, it was greeted with a curious question from the host: "What is the 'technology' you mentioned earlier? Is it a 'spell' that is different from spells? It can be cast without relying on aura ?”

Summon at any time when it is useful, and kick into the small black room when it is useless, this host is really not a human being!

System 999 is still sulking: [A living traveler is in front of him, but the host kills him violently. What else can this system say?]

Even if the emperor died of poisoning, he could still cover it up afterwards, after all, the host had never admitted to being poisoned.

However, the host did it himself in front of so many people, could it be possible to silence everyone

Now the protagonist's hatred value has definitely exploded, and its villain's whitewashing mission is completely cool.

Thought? Here, System 999 fell into autism.

"Traveler?" It was another new term that I had never heard of before, but Yuan Buwei immediately understood the meaning.

The immortal story fabricated by the emperor couldn't fool him, and the other party might be like him, an outsider who didn't belong here.

[According to the analysis of this system, the emperor should be a traveler who came from thousands of years later. The so-called technological civilization is the most mainstream civilization system in the ordinary plane. If the host chooses to cooperate with him, it may be able to accelerate the progress of this world and make the entire Beili develop unprecedentedly.]

Most importantly, there is still the possibility of whitewashing.

Probably in order to make Yuan not regret it, and deeply remember the lesson of this time. It projected a faint light curtain in front of Yuan Buwei's eyes.

[According to the regulations, apart from supervising the completion of tasks by the host, this system cannot provide any help to the host, including providing technical information on other civilization systems.]

Therefore, on the light curtain, there is only science popularization about the technological and civilized society, but there is no technical display. For example, you can see pictures of airplanes and trains through popular science, and know the powerful functions of such a means of transportation, but there is nothing about how to make them and what technologies are used.

I didn't think I had read all the science popularization seriously, as if I had discovered a new world I had never seen before.

"Interesting. So the human world can still develop like this?"

With a murmur, the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

System 999 splashed cold water: [But the host personally cut off such an interesting development.]

— This system seems to be seeing? Seeing that the task cannot be completed, it completely gives up on itself, breaks the pot, and dares to attack the host one after another

Just now? It wasn’t because there was no response, it was to get some words out of its mouth. Now that the goal has been achieved…

Yuan Buwei smiled, said nothing, and blocked the system 999 again.

He took out a small packet of candied fruit from his sleeve, and swallowed one in one gulp, the corners of his lips seemed to be a little sweet.

"Although it is indeed very interesting, what's the point of copying the road that has already been walked?"

What's more, isn't it more interesting to watch people who think they have the chance to win and have a plan in their chests, finally their hopes are shattered, everything comes to nothing, their mentality collapses, and they doubt life

·

The emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne.

The huge capital is completely empty.

According to the ancestral system, after the death of the first emperor, the crown prince had to observe filial piety for twenty-seven days before he would formally ascend the throne.

After the new monarch formally ascended the throne, he changed his name to Jinghe.

At the first court meeting after assuming the throne, the new emperor issued several decrees one after another, as the goal for the next ten years.

Later generations will call it "Jinghe Five Strategies".

First, rebuild the law, especially the tax law.

This matter should be based on the actual situation in all parts of the world, and a decision should be made after careful analysis. The first is the land tax, which involves thorny issues such as clearing the land and checking the hidden households.

Second, pay attention to all kinds of crafts, especially medicine.

This is the inspiration brought by the science popularization about technological civilization. Xiao Zhi, who was obsessed with official career, finally got the opportunity to show his talent and get a seat in advance in the upcoming Baigong Academy.

Third, modify the military system.

The military system in the past was too harsh and unreasonable, so it was originally changed to meet the current conditions. At the same time, the meritorious men who fought in the Southern and Northern Wars in these years have also been rewarded as they should be. It was not because the land in the north was distributed to them one by one according to their military merits.

I believe that within a few years, the devastated Central Plains will return to its old appearance.

Fourth, reform the imperial examinations, or in other words, revitalize education.

The imperial examination system just came into being? But in the past hundred years, the aristocratic clans are powerful in today’s world, and it is difficult for the sons and daughters of poor families to study. No future.

The new emperor set up academies in various places, allowing the sons and daughters of poor families to study in them, and abolished the recommendation system.

Fifth, open the sea ban.

As soon as the five new policies were announced, it caused an uproar.

Looking at the entire world, the land of the Central Plains has been trampled by the Jiehu people like a blank sheet of paper, where one can paint at will, but the south still retains the most complete aristocratic power.

These five decrees are all against their interests, and the first and fourth are going to dig their foundations and swallow their flesh and blood.

In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Looking at the uninvited guest in front of him, Prime Minister Su secretly sighed in his heart.

What happened on the day the former emperor passed away was already deeply engraved in his mind, which made him extremely afraid and fearful of this temperamental new emperor.

At the beginning, he was not the prince or the supervisor of the country, but only tentatively proposed some policies, and a large number of people in the court fiercely opposed it.

It's fine if it's out of public interest, but what they do is all for self-interest.

At that time, the new emperor, who was only the prince, smiled and agreed, without any intention of arguing, and seemed very talkative.

But on the day of the emperor's death, he swung the butcher knife mercilessly, and directly labeled several ministers who opposed the most fiercely as traitors and rebels who murdered the emperor's father, and killed them on the spot at the gate of the Taiji Hall.

Blood stained the white jade steps red, and the smell of blood lingered for a long time.

Not being able to go to the emperor's bedroom, all the officials who were "fortunate" to witness this scene outside the Tai Chi Hall were all pale.

Even if he went to court again and passed by this place, he couldn't help turning pale, recalling the blood that spurted out that day.

But compared with Su Cheng and other important ministers, these people are lucky. After all, they have never witnessed the majestic emperor? He was killed on the couch like a chicken

Even if they were not silenced by the new emperor, these ministers were still worried and anxious every day. Every day when I open my eyes, it feels like the last day of my life.

Among them, Prime Minister Su was the worst.

On the public, the relationship between him and the Jiangnan family is not shallower than those ministers who were killed. As long as he is still in the court, he will always be a banner; in terms of personal interests, he has been following the emperor's lead for many years, and has also secretly suppressed the prince according to the emperor's wishes?...

It's just that he is more tactful, even if he opposes the prince's policies, or suppresses the prince's party, he always leaves some leeway habitually.

Now the prince? Keep him, the much-touted "leader of the family" from being killed, and the entangled network of forces in the local area has not been moved. Name, it is no different from

Prime Minister Su has been standing in the court for many years, and he has long cultivated an extremely keen sense of smell, and immediately noticed the extremely firm determination of the new monarch.

Since ancient times, there are few powerful and powerful families who are innocent, hiding their households, evading taxes, colluding with each other, oppressing the people... all kinds of things are not uncommon. As long as the emperor is willing to check, almost every check will be accurate.

Even though he gave such a nonsensical reason as "murdering the first? Emperor", Prime Minister Su has no doubt that His Majesty must already have tangible evidence of the crimes of those people in his hands. The reason why he didn't release it was because he didn't want to completely tear himself apart with the Jiangnan aristocratic family and noble gentry.

These people who were killed were undoubtedly his warning!

If other people are ignorant and continue to fight against the emperor, His Majesty will release the real criminal evidence at hand and concoct a big case, and these people will not be the only ones involved.

Although he thought so, he couldn't change other people's ideas. Don't look at him as the prime minister, but he is just a bastard? Born, those aristocratic families who are proud of their blood, on the surface, praise him, but deep down they may not think highly of him.

However, they are far away, have never been in the court, and have never seen the new emperor's true face, so they thought they could deal with him in the same way they used to deal with the previous emperor.

What the new emperor did deeply angered them.

This is the reason for the arrival of this uninvited guest today.

In the study, after hearing the other party finish their plan, Prime Minister Su didn't say a word, cold sweat broke out all over his back.

"Brother Xie, think twice, His Majesty is not that easy to get along with you today. Your Majesty has left room for this matter, why not take a step back and avoid the momentary edge..."

He tried to persuade, but the other party interrupted him unceremoniously: "A step back? First, how can you give up the family fortune accumulated over hundreds of years? Do you know how much the little emperor's decrees will make us suffer if they are implemented?" Loss? That is at least several million taels of silver every year!"

When he spoke, he was confident and confident.

After hundreds of years of operation, these big aristocratic families have long regarded Jiangnan as their territory. Now the emperor is trying to take away their things and distribute them to the common people, it is simply hateful!

How could the emperor go north to the Central Plains and reshape the country if they hadn't offered the white money to support the army? Now they have to cross the river and demolish the bridge!

Not to mention the construction of academies and the reform of the imperial examinations are even more absurd! Those mud-legged people who plan food in the soil? What qualifications do they have to defile the books of sages and sit in court with them? !

This person never thought at all that their money comes from people's fat and people's anointing. Those who support the imperial army, civil and military officials, and even the emperor are actually the people of the world.

It is normal to take it from the people and use it for the people.

Prime Minister Su wanted to persuade him again, but this person insisted: "I have already made up my mind, so you don't need to persuade me too much. It's not speculative, so leave!"

After finishing speaking, he arched his hands, shook his sleeves and left.

After leaving the study, the man took a look behind him and sneered secretly in his heart.

"The little maidservant really can't get on the stage! At first, she was servile in front of the late emperor, and now she's begging for mercy in front of the little emperor. It's really embarrassing."

In the study room, Prime Minister Su was silent for a long time, spread out the white paper on the table, and began to grind ink slowly.

"It's really asking for a dead end..." He shook his head and sighed, "I have to find a way to get out of here."

So, he picked up a pen and wrote down every word that "Brother Xie" said just now.

Perhaps one day, this will be his trump card to escape.

However, Prime Minister Su never expected that this day would come earlier than he imagined.

That same night, he saw that "Brother Xie" again in Zhao Prison of the Imperial City Division.

Invited by the emperor to Zhao Prison at night, Prime Minister Su, who was originally confused, saw this "Brother Xie" for the first time, and suddenly realized.

At this time, this son of the Jiangnan Xie family who was born in a wealthy family and grew up in a gold and jade nest, although there was no hair on his body, he was downcast, his expression was gray, and he no longer returned to the original proud expression. .

The two looked at each other, and there was an awkward silence in the air.

— Unexpectedly? Before he had time to report and expose "Brother Xie", he was reported and exposed by this person first. Prime Minister Su felt a little regretful. When he came out, why didn't he bring the piece of evidence that he specially wrote before!

The atmosphere in Zhao Prison was extremely gloomy, and the walls were stained with blood.

Yuan didn't want to sit on the side in a leisurely manner, and there was a plate of sweet snacks on the side.

He tasted it slowly, the corners of his lips curved slightly.

After a long time, didn't it seem like this? After discovering the existence of Prime Minister Su, seeing him standing there in a daze, he asked suspiciously:

"Why, doesn't the Prime Minister know this farewell? An old friend not long ago?"

Prime Minister Su's expression was extremely strange.

He only glanced at Xie Hongzhi, who was in front of him with disheveled hair, and guessed the reason from the embarrassment on his face.

—Before I vowed to make the emperor look good, but now I have ended up like this? I'm afraid that if you leave the prime minister's mansion with your front foot, you will be arrested and sent to Zhao Prison with your back foot.

Of course, it doesn't matter. The important thing is, why did the bastard want to involve him? !

He just felt that he was really innocent and wronged.

In the eyes of the new emperor who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Prime Minister Su seemed to see the looming murderous intent, he felt a "thud" in his heart, and quickly bowed down.

"The old minister is guilty. Because he was soft-hearted in consideration of the temporary friendship, he failed to expose Xie, Wang, Sun, Ji... and others' rebellious and immoral act of merging thirteen families."

Since this Xie Hongzhi has already been caught by His Majesty, His Majesty may have noticed those people's petty actions long ago, and they will surely end up miserable in the future. Why did he have to cover up for them, but hurt himself instead

It's better to sell them thoroughly.

Yuan Buwei listened lazily, stretched out one hand to support his chin, his expression was loose, no emotional changes could be seen from the appearance alone.

It was very quiet all around, only Prime Minister Su's old and slow voice echoed in the prison.

Although there are many contents that I have heard from Xie Hongzhi, there are still many new things. This is the way out that Prime Minister Su secretly prepared for himself.

Faint screams came from the depths of Zhao Prison, and a strong smell of blood wafted out.

Yuan Buwei frowned slightly, looked at the dessert in his hand, and put it back on the plate regrettably.

But Prime Minister Su's voice continued.

In the end, Yuan Buwei finally nodded.

Seeing beads of sweat oozing from Prime Minister Su's forehead, he suddenly poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

"Why is the prime minister so tense? Tea, refreshments and refreshments are available here. Old friends are reunited, and they can talk freely. I am very happy! At best, I am just a host who provides a house for the two of you."

How dare Prime Minister Su refuse to accept the tea handed over by the emperor himself? However, his hands were trembling slightly.

... Could this be to send him on his way

·

Back to the prime minister's mansion, it was almost dawn.

Prime Minister Su was exhausted, exhaustion was written all over his body.

Today in Zhao Prison, he was threatened by the new emperor. His emotions were always ups and downs, and his heartstrings were tensed all the time. It was like walking on the edge of a cliff, and he might step into the air at any time.

Who would have received it just after returning home? A bad news.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

Looking at the stupid son in front of him, Prime Minister Su was almost mad at him!

Su Mingyou shrank his neck

In the past, he was not afraid of Prime Minister Su getting angry at all. Since he was whipped once last time, he finally had some sense of fear: "Father, don't you? Get angry. It's just a woman, and she ran away..."

Before he finished speaking, Prime Minister Su kicked him on the knee, causing him to stagger and fall to the ground.

"You, you rebellious son?! Is this a matter of a woman running away? This matter is related to the marriage that His Majesty personally arranged for you at the beginning! It's fine on weekdays, but now at this critical moment... Tell me, what good thing have you done? !"

If he hadn't done something shady, why would the wife that Ming Media was marrying actually want to run away at night

Su Mingyou felt guilty for a while after being scolded all over his face.

That day in the Dachang Princess' mansion, he was forced to marry him by the prince? He was already unwilling.

At first, because of Prime Minister Su's order, and because he was still a little afraid of the prince, he treated Axiu well for a while. Later, when he saw the prince, he ignored it, Prime Minister Su ignored the affairs in the backyard, so he reverted to his old ways and hooked up with many women from good families.

Axiu's status is not high, but she is very jealous. Relying on her being the crown prince, she personally proposes marriage, yet she actually bullies the other women in the backyard behind his back. A Xinna's concubine complained coquettishly in front of him, Su Mingyou drank again, got angry for a while, and almost beat Axiu to death.

Then came the trouble.

During the national mourning period, everyone in the world must observe filial piety. Some things are just that the people don't raise officials and don't investigate.

A few days ago, Su Mingyou couldn't bear it any longer, and secretly went to find his beloved concubine to vent his anger. How could he know that A Xiuzheng? He wanted to trouble this concubine, so he swaggered over there, directly ruining his good deed.

Today, the two had another quarrel over the matter of doting on their concubine. Axiu impulsively said that she was going to report that he was going to have fun during the national funeral. Su Mingyou is also a temper? In the woodshed.

Unexpectedly, before the cup of tea, this person disappeared.

After he finished talking about the cause and effect, he raised his head and looked at Prime Minister Su: "Father, this woman is so arrogant! When I catch her back, she must be disciplined... Ah! Why did you hit me?!"

"I think it's you who needs to be disciplined!"

Su Chengxiang panted heavily, picked up the rattan stick and beat it down, wanting to put this stupid son back into his mother's belly again.

It's only because he had a son in his middle age, he was reluctant to discipline him, and made this stupid son a waste of life!

Besides, Prime Minister Su is well versed in the way of trying to figure out people's hearts. In the past, when he was favored by the emperor, his son? made some minor mistakes, so he deliberately indulged him, turning a blind eye? It's also good to teach Xian? Emperor to use him at ease.

Didn't expect it? Now he has cheated himself!

"Idiot, use your brain? Think about it, how can she escape alone?"

Although the prime minister's mansion is not like the imperial palace? It is heavily guarded, but it is not like Axiu? A weak woman without the slightest foundation? She can come and go freely.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his mind.

...Could it be that His Majesty forcibly brokered this marriage at the beginning? It's already been counted? This? Today's scene

What Su Mingyou committed was probably committed by many people in private, and Beili's laws do not have mandatory provisions in this regard.

But the question is what His Majesty thinks.

Your Majesty doesn't care about it, but if you make use of it...

While Prime Minister Su waited anxiously, Axiu seemed to have evaporated and never appeared again.

Obviously someone hid her deliberately, and even the forces of the Prime Minister's Mansion couldn't find her out.

This undoubtedly confirmed Su Chengxiang's guess.

It was as if there was a guillotine that was about to fall hanging above his head. This? The state of being about to fall was the most frightening.

As the days passed, and the anxiety and torment in his heart fermented to the extreme, Prime Minister Su finally made up his mind.

Glancing at the "ignorant and ignorant stupid son", he let out a long sigh.

... what else to do? There is only such a son? He is so stupid because he spoiled him, so he can only drag this old bone and clean up the mess for him

In the imperial study room, it was not surprising that Prime Minister Su asked to see him.

He killed so many people back then, but left Prime Minister Su alone. Firstly, the position of Prime Minister is of great importance, killing Prime Minister Su, but there is no way to immediately find a prime minister to take office, which may affect the operation of the court; second, it is because Su Cheng is relatively easy to use.

— This person is cautious, cherishes life, and has the fatal flaw of Su Mingyou, so he is almost the most convenient tool to use.

However, Yuan Wuwei is not as mysterious as Su Chengxiang imagined. It is impossible to calculate everything in advance, and even Su Mingyou's own behavior is under his control.

Axiu was just playing casually. After he arranged the marriage of the two that day, he asked the hidden guard to keep an eye on it in secret. Didn't expect that? Now it just happens to come in handy.

Taking a glance? Prime Minister Su, who walked in staggeringly, was not very satisfied at first, and said with a smile:

"The prime minister is here, and I happen to have something to do with you? You 'discuss'."

·

It was another court meeting, and the civil and military officials were still arguing endlessly about the five policies that the emperor had thrown out before.

Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Su, who had always been cautious, stood up and strongly supported the emperor.

As a result, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were fortunate enough to witness a wonderful scene that is enough to be recorded in history.

In his sixtieth year, Prime Minister Su fought with all the ministers in the Tai Chi Hall, citing scriptures and allusions, eloquently, and finally won a complete victory with his own strength.

His defection seems to have torn a hole

As a veteran of the two dynasties, he has been an official in the dynasties for 20 years, and his disciples and former officials are also a considerable force.

He came to lobby in person again, and soon won? Many courtiers who were willing to support the New Deal, and the voices in the court were no longer overwhelmingly opposed to the New Deal.

If the supporters and the opponents in the court can barely be evenly divided, then the land in the south is very different? It was not because he had already been on the hatred list of countless families, and various rumors and rumors about the new emperor were spreading all over the world, and he was simply said to be a faint and tyrant rarely seen in the ages.

But he didn't care at all.

The public opinion offensive was ineffective, and they had new moves.

These people also blatantly opposed the imperial court, but they disgusted the emperor with their solid foundation of years of business.

For example, several large chambers of commerce refused to sell rice to the north, or raised the price. All of a sudden, the price of rice in the market was soaring, ordinary people were almost out of food, and famine broke out in several places; or the newly built academy was suddenly robbed by well-known local bandits and smashed up...

As for the trickier methods, before these people have time to implement them, they will never have another chance.

The news from Xie Hongzhi and Prime Minister Su had already prepared Yuan Buwei.

He is a person who always likes to treat others in his own way. If the enemy is open with swords and guns, he will crush them with great momentum; if the opponent plays tricks, it would only make them doubt their lives.

As a result, a group of chambers of commerce hoarded a large amount of rice and grain in the warehouse, and the back foot was quietly emptied by unknown thieves, and suddenly there was a thieves who robbed the rich and helped the poor in those places where there was famine. Rice grains were distributed to each household; while the bandits burned down the academy, the manors of many big families also suffered disaster...

Just when they were secretly suffering from a dull loss and wanted to cry but had no tears, hundreds of thousands of Zhenshan troops had already arrived in the south of the Yangtze River.

The entire south was suddenly silent.

The system 999 who finally came out of the small dark room to let the air out was dumbfounded, and once again doubted Tong Sheng.

——The host's coercion, coercion, and both soft and hard methods seem to have been played to perfection, and he is very familiar with it. Is it really the silly, white and sweet savior he thought

Did it really tie the wrong person? !

Read it carefully again, yes, the familiar golden light of merit and virtue, and the familiar beliefs of all living beings. It seems that I can vaguely hear countless voices of blessings coming from the void...the meaning of gratitude and worship is not adulterated.

System 999 fell into deep confusion.

However, having experienced so many worlds anyway, System 999 is not a mere novice. At this moment, he reminded: [Host, what you are doing? Even if for the time being? Suppress the voices of opposition, but those people will never just compromise like this. When it erupts in the future? It will only become more intense.]

Unless the entire south can be completely shuffled.

But in that case, the world, which has only been peaceful for a few years, will probably fall into complete turmoil again.

"Really?" Yuan Buwei showed some anticipation in his eyes, "I've been waiting for that day."

·

In silence, everything is running in an orderly manner.

The turbulent tide in the dark has already stirred up silently, but it is unknown who will drown in the end.

On this day, the first academy in the capital was completed.

According to the original plan, as the emperor, Yuan Buwei planned to go there in person in order to express his importance.

Prime Minister Su stood up to advise and said: "Recently there have been many rumors and rumors against His Majesty in Beijing, and I suspect that someone is behind the scenes. The opening of the academy today is the time when troubles are most likely to occur. Your Majesty, please take the dragon body as the most important thing, and don't take risks lightly."

What he said was euphemistic, what kind of gossip is actually the saying of the emperor killing the king and usurping the throne. He didn't do this in front of everyone's eyes, and he didn't care what other people said.

What's more, he has been looking forward to today's event for a long time...

He opened his mouth lightly, and stepped on Xian? Emperor's 10,000 feet: "No need. Like Xian? Emperor, there can be immortals in their dreams. I have my own destiny to protect me, so nothing will happen."

The officials were speechless.

Last time, in front of the emperor, who criticized the theory of immortals entering their dreams as nonsense, saying that there have never been immortals in this world... Your Majesty will not forget, right

The first emperor didn't deserve the protection of an immortal. Could it be that His Majesty, who doesn't believe in the existence of an immortal, deserves it

Except for Su Cheng and Yuan Buwei who had been tied to the same boat and could only go one way to Hei, the courtiers were worried, the others were just silent, but they were already ready to see a joke in their hearts.

Then, they were dumbfounded.

At the gate of the academy, when the new emperor stepped down from the imperial chariot, there was a sudden sound of piercing through the air? An extremely sharp sound.

A pitch-black feathered arrow pierced through the black crowd, pierced through layers of imperial guards, and came through the air from an imperceptible gap at an incredible speed. The extremely sharp point of the arrow hit the new emperor's face Door.

This arrow came too fast, too suddenly!

So that no one reacted on the spot.

Even the high-spirited new emperor who ascended the throne not long ago stood still in place, looking like he was about to be pierced by an arrow and completely take his life away.

"Your Majesty—huh???"

Prime Minister Su exclaimed, but the tone of the ending changed.

At the moment when the arrow touched Yuan Buwei's face, everyone's eyes became blurred.

In a trance, the earth in front of my eyes seemed to be shaking, and there seemed to be an illusory dragon chant resounding between the heaven and the earth.

A brilliant golden light rises in front of your eyes.

After the momentary illusion disappeared, they looked intently again, only to see that the arrow had been firmly held between two slender fingers, motionless.

The faint dragon chant gradually dissipated.

The officials were stunned on the spot.

— Could it be that what His Majesty said is true? ! !

It wasn't because Shi Shiran stood where he was, with no panic on his face.

He looked at the arrow in his hand with interest, and suddenly threw it in a certain direction.

Everyone's hearts tightened in an instant.

At that moment, his eyes were extremely sharp.
