Chapter 1257
"Following the heavens, the emperor ordered that...the master of Chu is of high quality and blue heart, beautiful and intelligent...specially invite you to enter the palace and canonize her as the concubine of Chu...this is yours."

The hall was silent, a needle could be heard, and the candles were swayed and distorted by the wind.

The eunuch who delivered the decree was so stared at that his scalp was numb, and he still looked at Xihe with a dry smile: "Chu Concubine, Your Majesty has longed for you, and when you enter the palace, it will be... uh." 'Bang' fell to the ground, eyes staring at the night sky .

Fang Qinglin put away his sword, looked at everyone, and smiled gently: "Everyone, please continue."

The people present were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed and raised their glasses to drink: "Yes, yes, come, come, drink!" The whole hall was full of laughter, not taking it seriously.

But I couldn't help slandering in my heart: Is this old emperor crazy?Dare to humiliate Junshang and Fang Wuxia.

This edict does not say that Master Chu is already married, and regardless of Master Chu's ability to drive out the Tatars and fight against Luo Cheng and Cui Pingyang, a mere concubine of Chu wants to get people into the palace, she really thinks highly of herself.

Fang Wuxia only killed the eunuch who passed the decree, which is considered light, just wait, this matter is endless.
-
The next day, the news that the emperor ordered Naxihe to be his concubine quickly spread, and Fang Qinglin beheaded the eunuch who passed the decree with a sword, and everyone knew it.

Some of the ministers of the DPRK and China were so angry that they beat their chests and stamped their feet, which idiot's idea was to yell at him?Think they didn't die fast enough.

There are also people with fat heads who disdain.No matter how capable Master Chu is, she is still a woman, why would she not be happy to enter the palace to enjoy the glory and wealth?Your Majesty's decree, this woman does not know what kind of joy it is.

His Majesty is really wise, and he brought down their formidable enemy without any effort!
However, one day passed, and two days passed, Master Chu still did not enter the palace, but the complaints from the people were getting louder and louder.

"What are those people outside the door doing?" Jing Zhaoyin looked angry.My ears hurt from the noise.

The arrester came in quickly and replied: "My lord, the people outside the door think that the tax is too heavy and they can't live on, and they are dissatisfied, so..."

Jing Zhaoyin dropped his writing brush: "A group of unscrupulous people! I think they are living too well and want to find trouble! Arrest them all!"

The catcher responded quickly and went out, and after a while the noise outside the mansion disappeared, Jing Zhaoyin's frowning brows relaxed, and he sat on the teacher's chair to write and write slowly again.

Unexpectedly, the matter was not over yet, and within two days, people came to beat drums to complain and ask for an explanation.

Jing Zhaoyin was very angry and detained people again. However, within a few days, someone... the people became angry, and the riot became bigger and bigger, and even a riot broke out, and several people died.

All of a sudden, the people in the capital erupted instantly, kneeling outside the Meridian Gate and begging the emperor to come forward.

The old emperor waited for a long time and still didn't see Xihe enter the palace, he was already full of anger, when he heard about this, he directly ordered: "Cut it off."

The old Shangshu couldn't bear it, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, in the past two years, there have been natural disasters and wars in various places, and the people can't make ends meet. There is no surplus food to hand over. Why don't you wait..."

The old emperor glared at him suddenly, his gaze devoured, and the old Shangshu became dumb all of a sudden.

The old emperor's eyes were gloomy: "I said, cut it off!"

Old Shangshu frowned instantly, His Majesty is like this, how can the common people live on?
Opening his mouth to say more, Prime Minister Zuo already laughed at Yan Yan and said: "Your Majesty, don't get angry, this matter is because Jing Zhaoyin is not doing well, and I will let him atone for his crime."

Outside the Meridian Gate, the sun was already shining on the top of the head. The scorching sun made people dizzy and crumbling.

At this moment, the palace gate finally opened, and the people were shocked and looked over expectantly, only to see a father-in-law walking out with a whisk, standing not far from them, and holding his nose in distaste: "Your Majesty's will, this A group of unscrupulous people with bad intentions and intent to rebel, killed them."

The people who just wanted to ask for an explanation were shocked and turned completely pale.

"Father-in-law, I am wronged. We are just ordinary people. We are not rebellious. We are here to see His Majesty because the taxes are too heavy to live on."

"Yes, yes, father-in-law, please be clear, we are all good people, we..."

"Not yet?"

With an order, the policeman with a knife on his waist solemnly stepped forward.

Grab a few people who yelled the loudest, drag them to the stage like dead dogs, glance at the bottom, and chop them off with a knife.

Gululu, a huge head rolled down from the stage, and blood spread all over the floor.

There was silence outside the Meridian Gate, and the scorching sun became more and more anxious.

The common people opened their mouths blankly, looking at everything in front of them in disbelief.

The father-in-law snorted coldly: "If you make trouble again, this will be the end!"

He glanced at this group of lowly people with disdain, turned around and left with a whisk.

"Damn dog officer, I will fight with you!"

With a loud shout, a man in the crowd rushed forward.

The father-in-law was startled, and hurriedly hid behind the guard, pointing at him: "Quickly, kill him!"

"..."

It is said that on this day, blood flowed into a river outside the Meridian Gate, and there were wailings.

Seeing the news in his hands, Xihe's face sank. This group of people is going too far.

Liu Yurong was also furious: "They simply don't treat the people as human beings! The tax is so heavy every year, and this year it will be increased by [-]%. Isn't it forcing the people to die! They kill so many people just to ask for an explanation. human nature!"

Shen Yunzhuang was thoughtful: "I think their move may be targeting us."

Everyone looked at her in unison, and Shen Yun frowned: "Your Majesty did not accept the old emperor's order some time ago. It is obvious that the two sides have torn each other, and the struggle is inevitable. Although the old emperor is confused, and the Ming Dynasty is chaotic, There is no shortage of smart people, and maybe the tax increase is just to deal with us."

Although Shen Yunzhuang is a woman, her resourcefulness is not inferior to that of a man, and she is Xihe's right-hand man.

Everyone changed their faces in an instant: "This old emperor is so treacherous! Your lord, do we have to wait? Why don't we just attack the capital."

The people in this room have long been dissatisfied with the old emperor, not to mention that old guy still wants the king to be his concubine!Bah, they are not dead yet, yet they dare to hit their king's main position, they simply don't take them seriously.

She was gearing up, wishing she could rush to the palace now and knock the old emperor down.

Xihe glanced at the excited crowd and shook his head: "There is no rush, the time has not yet come."

Everyone was stunned immediately, but the emperor has a lot of hills and valleys in his chest, so the old emperor will definitely not be taken advantage of.

In the days that followed, the world was divided into two, with Xihe occupying the entire west and southwest, while the old emperor still occupied most of the fertile and fertile land, and the two sides stood still for the time being.

Xihe already had experience, and everything developed in an orderly manner, while the old emperor's side became increasingly chaotic and uprisings continued.

Another spring, Xihe just came back from the field. While walking, she talked with the old farmer in charge of farming and mulberry. A big black dog with smooth fur ran away and approached merrily. His subordinates hurried over and handed her a piece of paper: "The old emperor At stake, several princes fought for power, Wu Yan attacked the city gate at night.

Xihe smiled and looked towards the sky: The time has come.
