Chapter 35

Outside the north gate of the imperial capital, a group of black shadows galloped non-stop towards the north. Someone had already prepared their horses twenty miles away.

Chen Situ's trembling voice sounded in the darkness: "My lord, we can't go back to the imperial capital now, what should we do now?"

"Today's humiliation, I will repay it!"

Wang Sima took a deep breath, turned his head and glanced at the giant city shrouded in darkness, turned his head, his voice was full of exhaustion and viciousness: "Let's go, find the eldest prince Su Xin!"

The old man risked his reputation as a scholar, and he also wanted to pull the emperor down!
The figures of a group of people gradually disappeared into the darkness.

In any case, the most turbulent day in the imperial capital has passed.

For the people of the imperial capital, another new day has arrived, and everything on the streets remains the same, except that there are a group of Great Xia Iron Army patrolling the whole city.

For Su Chen, starting from today, the entire imperial capital has been completely controlled by him.

Regardless of military or political affairs, orders are issued.

From being a new king with no power in his hands to completely controlling the power of the entire court, Su Chen has spent a lot of effort, but it is all worth it.

If you can't completely control the power of the court, how can you quell the domestic turmoil and the orc empire?

If you want to revive the backbone of the human race of the Great Xia Dynasty, you should start by clearing the court of the imperial capital.

"Have you heard? The army entered the city yesterday, tsk tsk tsk, the mansions of many princes and ministers, it's a river of blood!"

"I'm not blind or deaf, how can I not know? If you ask me, these officials are really stupid. If they don't serve as good officials, they insist on resigning; hehe, have you angered the emperor? They all ransacked their homes! Great joy!"

"Childish! This is the emperor taking power. Only when the power is in hand can the civil strife be quelled; the three princes have controlled the government for a long time. If they are not eliminated, how can the emperor calm down the chaos of the eight kings without worry? Resist the orc empire?"

In the market place, there were always excited discussions. Although the Great Xia Dynasty was open-minded and would not be decapitated just because of discussing the government affairs, everyone also discussed cautiously.

After all, what happened last night was really shocking.

I heard that on the first day of the establishment of the Military Machine Pavilion prison, thousands of people lived in it. Before yesterday, each of them was an official of the imperial capital with real power!
It is said that many criminals and relatives of the gentry sent people out early in the morning to deal with them everywhere, trying their best to get the emperor to release them.

"Hey, how can the emperor see us? Now the six departments are vacant, and we can't even hand in the memorial of the people's advice, and we are not qualified to enter the palace to face the saint."

"It's not that we don't want to contribute, it's just... well, I'm afraid uncle's difficulty is inevitable."

"Why are you looking for the emperor! Now that the Military Machine Pavilion is in power, go find the Minister of the Military Machine Pavilion!"

"Cousin, the Hall of Military Aircraft is located in the outer hall of the imperial palace, which also belongs to the imperial palace. We can't get in."

"Don't panic, I heard that Sima Yi, Minister of the Ministry of War, robbed Sir Wang Sima's mansion; he is now living in it, and even the name of the mansion has been changed to Minister of War's mansion."

"really?"

"really!"

"Come here, wait in the carriage, and prepare a heavy gift! I'm going to visit Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War!"

This kind of dialogue resounded in the countless gentry mansions in the imperial capital, and every family tried their best to get in touch with the ministers of the military cabinet.

Among them, Guo Sikong and Sima Yi are the most visited people.

There is no other, because the place where these two people are in charge is outside the imperial palace, and Guo Sikong has inextricable connections with the nobles of the imperial capital.

It's a pity that Guo Sikong didn't see any guests behind closed doors, so everyone had to ask Sima Yi.

"Alas, that Sima Yi has no guests!"

"It's so hateful, this person doesn't make any money, and my uncle is finished."

"Don't be crow's mouth! I'm going to find out more information. No matter what, I must save my uncle. You don't have to do it when the official is gone. You must save your life."

Sima Yi didn't see any guests either, which made the entire noble family in the imperial capital panic and began to go to the doctor in a hurry.

Today, throughout the entire imperial capital, luxurious carriages are constantly speeding on the streets, fleeing from east to west.

Even when the officials from the early morning court came down today, most of them found that there were many guests standing at home.

Everyone prepared generous gifts, begged desperately, and refused to let go of any opportunity.

The family concept among the gentry began to stand out, and they all hoped that their relatives would be well.

All the officials are terrified, who dares to accept the gift at this time?
The ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion were ruthless and tricky, and even Guo Sikong had to avoid the edge for the time being. They could only protect themselves, and they dared not speak out to help, nor did they dare to accept gifts.

This situation continued until the afternoon.

One of the emperor's decrees from the early court has been handed down, the content is to let the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion who have no mansions to buy their own mansions. The emperor does not want these ministers to always live in the palace.

Li Nianzi's first batch of drafts has ended, and many beautiful girls have entered the palace as slaves. From a certain point of view, all the beautiful girls are the emperor's women.

Even though the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion lived in the outer hall of the imperial palace and could not see these beautiful women, it did not comply with the rules.

Just after this decree came, the Minister of the Military Machine Pavilion was forced to stay in the mansion of the Minister of the Ministry of War.

at the same time.

There was a shout of surprise, which sounded from a certain imperial capital restaurant.

"Are you serious? The Minister of Military Affairs, is the door open for visitors?"

This scream, like a tornado, spread to the entire corner of the imperial capital in an instant, and was known by all the gentry.

This is an opportunity!
This is a great opportunity to find someone!

In an instant.

Every household started to make some moves. Luxurious carriages full of gifts drove to the main road of the imperial capital. It was extremely crowded, but they had a tacit understanding. They all went to the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War.

"Quick!"

"Speed ​​up and prepare a double gift!"

"Steward! Steward! Come on, take out my map of mountains, rivers and moons. It is a Danqing ink treasure bestowed by the late emperor, with an inscription written by the late emperor!"

Countless people flocked to Sima Yi's mansion in front of him, begging to see the Minister of Military Aircraft Pavilion.

However, when everyone arrived at Sima Yi's mansion, they were stopped by a general leading an army. I heard that this person was Lei Zhenzi, the right captain of the Great Xia Iron Army. His face was covered by an iron mask, and he was also wearing a special battle armor. .

I heard that this person is very low-key, but his martial arts realm is extremely powerful.

"Don't worry, everyone. I have already sent someone to inform Sir Sima Yi. You should wait for the news for now."

Lei Zhenzi's voice sounded, he explained something, and then he still guarded Sima Yi's mansion.

The purpose of him leading the army to guard Sima Yi's mansion is to guard against dead soldiers and villains who intend to disrupt the situation in the imperial capital.

The gentry didn't dare to make any noise, so they could only stand helplessly at the door.

After a while, a servant came out from the mansion, coughed, and shouted to the gentry: "My lord has said that if you want to enter the mansion, you can meet the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, but you need to express your sincerity. one person!"

"Sincere?"

The gentry looked at each other in blank dismay, everyone was human, how could such an obvious hint not be seen?

As soon as the servant's voice fell, a gentry boldly stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "My lord, I am the son of Xu's eldest son in the south of the city. I came here this time for my uncle's business. Be flexible, let me go in and meet the minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion."

After finishing speaking, the nobleman quietly gave the servant a large amount of gold, and he pointed to his carriage. The servant in the carriage understood, and opened a corner of the curtain of the carriage, and there were boxes and boxes full of important gifts, including antiques, curios, Danqing Juebi, Calligraphy of the Former Emperor's Period
The servant raised his head and glanced in the direction of the carriage, and pouted at the side door of the mansion: "Go in."

"Thank you sir!"

The scholars of the Xu family were overjoyed, bowed again and again, and strode towards the side door of the mansion. The side door had already been opened, and there was a housekeeper sitting at a wooden table with a piece of paper in front of him, as if he was recording something.

"Housekeeper, Xiaosheng is being polite."

The Xu family scholar cupped his hands, but the steward didn't look up, but said indifferently: "Stand aside first, wait."

The Xu family scholar nodded, not daring to be presumptuous, he came here today to catch people, how dare he play prestige?
The other gentry saw that someone had successfully entered, their eyes lit up, and they strode forward, approaching the servant.

"My lord, I am the Chengbei Palace family! I have also brought my sincerity!"

"My lord, I brought it too!"

"My lord, please be accommodating!"

Countless people surrounded the servant, who smiled wryly in his heart, and could only collect the gold one by one, and let people in one by one.

He just followed Sima Yi's instructions, and he couldn't get any of the gold.
Master Sima said, these are all the money used by the ministers of the Military Machine Pavilion to buy the family property of the mansion, how dare he be greedy for ink as a little servant?
