Reform does not happen overnight, not to mention that the emperor is weak now, even if the emperor is strong, it takes countless time and energy to move the interests of courtiers and aristocratic families.
Since the emperor reformed in advance, he began to quarrel with courtiers for three days, and then for five days.
In order to prevent the emperor from reforming, the courtiers asked the emperor for trivial matters every day, and let the emperor make decisions. From time to time, he would quarrel for the son of the family, and then reason with the emperor, so that the emperor could not concentrate on his work.
At the beginning, the emperor would still deal with it carefully, or listen carefully, but the emperor would be too lazy to take care of it after more than a few times, allowing the courtiers to argue and quarrel.
The emperor ignored it, and the courtiers also had other ways. When the emperor talked about reform, the courtiers were left and right. Anyway, he didn't answer the emperor's words, or he was sluggish, and things that could be done in an hour were just delayed for a day or even two days.
In the face of various non-cooperation and sabotage of the courtiers, the emperor is not angry, and slowly grinds with the courtiers, with great patience.
At the beginning, the courtiers were secretly proud, thinking that their little plan had succeeded, but after a long time, they felt that something was wrong. Under Xiao Tianyao's hint, the courtiers quickly understood the emperor's plan.
"The emperor is waiting for the people of the Central Empire to support him. With the support of the Central Empire, even if we don't cooperate, the emperor's reforms can still be carried out."
Dongwen and other four affiliated countries are naturally afraid of the Central Empire, and the aristocratic families of various countries do not dare to challenge the Central Empire.
"What if there is the support of the Central Empire? Can the Central Empire still send people to stay in Dongwen to watch? If the people from the Central Empire are here, we will cooperate with one or two, and we will slowly boil it down when they leave. Who?"
"I heard that the people from the Central Empire came to trouble King Xiao this time. You said... something happened to King Xiao, what should we do?"
Although they did not submit a certificate to King Xiao, nor did they make it clear that they belonged to King Xiao's line, the emperor no longer believed them, and they could only follow King Xiao. If King Xiao fell, they would not be good. Days passed.
"King Xiao is not alone. As long as Jin Wuwei does not fall into the hands of the emperor, King Xiao's lineage will not fall." King Xiao can have today's status, not because of his status, but the military power in his hands .
As long as Jin Wuwei is still in his hands, no one can move King Xiao, or move King Xiao's lineage.
"No wonder King Xiao is not worried at all." Everyone is a smart person, and they understand it immediately.
With military power, it doesn't matter whether King Xiao is in Dongwen or not, it doesn't matter if King Xiao is taken away by the Central Empire, as long as he pushes a person out to represent him.
Moreover, this time is different from the past. The current King Xiao is no longer alone, and behind him are their ministers in the court. If these people want to keep their existing power, they cannot let Xiao Wang's line fall. They do not need Xiao Wang to speak, they will spontaneously defend the rights of Xiao Wang's line, and protect Xiao Wang when Xiao Wang is away. The forces of the same vein replaced King Xiao in the struggle for power with the emperor.
"King Xiao takes one step and counts three steps, and the emperor is not his opponent." After figuring out King Xiao's calculations, all the courtiers who had been plotted by him could only accept their fate even though they were embarrassed. Who told them that they were already thieves of King Xiao Ship, it is impossible to get off the ship.
They can only maintain the status of King Xiao now to ensure their power.
When the courtiers were discussing Xiao Tianyao's plan, Xiao Tianyao was also talking to Lin Chujiu about his plan.
Similar to what the courtiers discussed, he really did use his strength to fight against the emperor, and he used Lin Xiang to fight against the aristocratic family. , to help him support the line of King Xiao.
After hearing this, Lin Chujiu didn't close her mouth for a long time, and looked at Xiao Tianyao with a look of admiration: "You are so sinister, does the emperor know?"
All the courtiers are taken into account, and it is a tragedy for the emperor to have a younger brother who thinks so much.
"Why do you want to reform at this time when you are the emperor?" Xiao Tianyao didn't hold back and pinched Lin Chujiu's nose.
How can this woman be so cute.
"Pa!" Lin Chujiu patted Xiao Tianyao's hand without thinking. "Okay, don't touch your feet." She was willing to give herself and Xiao Tianyao a chance, but it didn't mean they could just skip getting along. Stage, enter the couple mode, you can cuddle casually.
Although, they were husband and wife.
"We used to be husband and wife." Xiao Tianyao looked at the red and swollen back of his hand, quite aggrieved.
Lin Chujiu didn't let go before, he could still hug and kiss, why is Lin Chujiu giving in now, but he can't even touch it
"So what?" Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao with an arrogant and queen-like expression.
"Of course it's up to you, this king is not afraid." Xiao Wangye said very unprincipled.
Lin Chujiu rolled her eyes at Xiao Tianyao and said angrily, "You haven't said yet, why did the emperor propose reforms at this juncture?"
Even a political idiot like her knows that this time is not a good time for reform, and the real reform should not be to increase personnel and decentralize power, but to downsize departments and centralize power.
"Sit down, this king will tell you." Xiao Tianyao pointed to his embrace, and said without blushing or panting.
Since Lin Chujiu's apparent softening that day, his and Lin Chujiu's positions have been reversed, becoming what Lin Chujiu says is what he is.
If he wants to protest, Lin Chujiu will look at him with red eyes and say, "My lord, I still can't forget the pain when you broke my arm; The sadness of being able to wait for death; let alone the panic of being left by you and facing the first prince of the empire alone; of course, the pain like Ling Chi when the poison strikes is even more unforgettable and unforgettable."
When Lin Chujiu said this, she was serious and joking, as if she was deliberately choking him with these words, but he knew that Lin Chujiu was not joking, she was real, and she really couldn't let it go.
These things, which he took for granted, hurt Lin Chujiu's heart so deeply that she was reluctant to open her heart to him.
Now, Lin Chujiu is showing the pain in his heart naked in front of him in a joking tone, giving him a chance to make up for it, and also giving them a chance.
If he misses this opportunity, he and Lin Chujiu may continue to be husband and wife, but they are just husband and wife.
Xiao Tianyao knew what Lin Chujiu was afraid of, so he would dote on Lin Chujiu as much as possible, and of course he would not forget to ask for something for himself, such as now.
If Lin Chujiu wants to know the emperor's purpose, then take the initiative to let him hug him. Except at night, he hasn't hugged Lin Chujiu for several days.
To be honest, he really thought about it...
