Summon the Big Boss

Chapter 714

Xia Guohuang's capital was already different more than [-] years ago.

The city wall that had guarded Xia Guohuang's capital for hundreds of years has been demolished, and now only a small piece of pretense remains.

Instead, there are solid fortresses.

In the fortress, there are not only musketeers on duty, but also several leveling cannons.

The fortresses are horned with each other, and if an enemy comes to invade, it is easy to be crushed by these metal meat grinders.

Perhaps, a few city gates are a little bit of insignificant flaws in this new defense system.

Inside the city, it was very prosperous and the people were noisy.

Races from all over the world are intermingled with each other, making it look like an international metropolis.

In the warm pavilion of the imperial city, the emperor of the current dynasty is reviewing the memorial.

Approved a few places, but let it go in annoyance, then held his forehead and rubbed it continuously.

The eunuchs and maids around all lowered their heads sensibly, as if they hadn't seen it, and no one came forward to flatter and pet them.

In the past, there were also eunuchs and court ladies who thought this was an opportunity.

Then they all disappear forever.

The emperor is getting old day by day, although his behavior style is beginning to appear conservative, but it does not mean that he has become kind and generous.

Conservative and kind... These are two different concepts.

From time to time, an old eunuch stepped over the threshold and came in with several newly released memorials.

"It's Yang Ge and the others again?" the emperor asked.

The old eunuch said in a steady voice, bowing his head, "Report to Your Majesty! Yes!"

"Bring it here!" The emperor beckoned.

The memorial was presented.

After turning it over a little, the emperor put it down again.

"Prince Li...Prince Li! What are they thinking, don't they really know?" the emperor said angrily.

There are many living people in the warm cabinet.

But no one answered the emperor's question.

The emperor sighed and said: "I, Daxia Zhen, established the country in 320 years, and won the world through prophecy and thaumaturgy. But how can we know all the things in the world? The so-called future is just a thought, and it evolves according to the trend."

What the emperor said had an allusion in it.

After Taizu, the emperors of all dynasties were superstitious about predicting the future.

Even the inheritance of the country relies more on this.

The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to be used to this.

During the period of Emperor Wenxian, he saw that his youngest son would be both civil and military in the future, and he would be extremely intelligent, and he would manage the world in an orderly manner.So he passed the country to the youngest son, and the eldest sons were entrusted as idle princes.

After the death of Emperor Wenxian, the youngest son succeeded to the throne. At first, he was indeed a gentleman, but gradually he grew crooked. He was not only lustful and violent, but also very happy.

Great Xia Jiangshan was almost ruined at the hands of this Emperor Siqi.

Fortunately, the third son of Emperor Wenxian of the past, contacted the officials and put things right, which prevented the building from collapsing.

Under the strong recommendation of the ministers, it took 30 years of hard work to climb the Dabao, and it was only then that the Great Xia was stabilized.

And this Emperor Baoji, in the foresight of Emperor Wenxian, was just an ordinary and dull person, and it was difficult to accomplish anything.

Since then, people in the royal family have realized that the future they see is what they think in their hearts.

The future is countless and changing all the time.

Emperor Wenxian loves his youngest son, so in the future he foresees, what the youngest son presents is the best future.

It is possible for him to become the person that Emperor Wenxian expected.

But it is also possible to go off the road and go in other directions.

Therefore, the inheritance of the world's treasures cannot be judged solely on the foresight of the future, but also needs to be judged by other aspects.

The view of the future is based on the partiality of people's hearts.

"That's it! That's it!" The old emperor seemed to have thought of something, waved his hand, and seemed to have no clue and didn't have a decent ending to his words.

Of course, no one will ask him.

In the previous dynasty, some emperors relied heavily on their servants and caused disasters, and even the eunuchs controlled the government, arbitrarily arguing about the abolition of the emperor.

Therefore, in the Xia Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties were not fake to the eunuchs, and they were often harsh.

It also made the eunuchs of the Xia Dynasty twitch their tails and keep themselves safe. They never played any outstanding roles.

At this time, the old emperor's eyes seemed a little clouded.

He was thinking about the future he saw after seeing his eldest son last time.

In the future, his eldest son, wielding a sword and holding a musket, rushed into the palace, and then stepped on the dragon chair.

The old emperor knew that such a future had nothing to do with his eldest son.

It was because he himself had some murderous intentions towards his eldest son.

Together, they naturally saw the most unfavorable future for the eldest son.

However... Even so, there is always a thorn in my heart, which cannot be removed.

"Emperor Xuanwei had also foreseen that his crown prince would kill him to seize the throne, but in the end he chose to abdicate the throne and resigned to the position of Supreme Emperor. Since then, his father has been kind and his son has been respectful, and he has lived in peace for more than ten years. But it’s an anecdote that nothing happened.” The old emperor suppressed the killing intent in his heart like this, and then frowned to review the memorial.

Although countless wealth flows into Daxia from various countries every year.

However, in the memorials of these ministers, it always seems that the Xia Kingdom is about to perish. Either a certain place is devastated for thousands of miles, or a certain place is flooded and starved everywhere, and every mouth...all ask for money.

The old emperor knew that the so-called drought and flood might be true.

But... there is too much to make a fuss about.

For local officials, if natural disasters are within their control, finding the responsible person in advance will help them to blackmail the court, hollow out the national treasury, and then enrich their own private treasury.

On the contrary, there was a huge disaster, but they had to hide it, in order not to take the blame and to keep their black hat.

The old emperor's response was simple.

You only need to send people to check whether the merchants from all over the country are transporting less goods than before, and then check whether the refugees outside the city have increased and where they come from. Many things will be more or less conceptual.

Of course, it's just a concept.

It is really difficult to get accurate information.

The Xia Dynasty also had a secret agent organization that supervised the officials, but it also learned from the previous dynasties, and never allowed this organization to become big and grasp too much power that should not belong to them.

So the effect is relatively limited.

"The book The Age of Electricity is interesting. I seem to see the future. There will be people who will create such an era. It's just... I may not be able to wait. It's a pity... If it can come sooner, maybe The state's control will be stronger."

"However... it's better not to come so early! Xia Guo has already undergone a reshuffle. It looks like flowers are blooming like brocades, but in fact it is full of flames. All forces are tightly tied in one line. Let's add more strength." , the world will be turned upside down.”

"I have to take care of it... I have to take care of it again. The boss is still too radical, he is not suitable... Maybe the third is more suitable, after all he..." Thinking of this, the old emperor couldn't help seeing the future, and the three After the prince succeeded to the throne, he ruled by doing nothing to make the world rich, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the scene where the monarch and his ministers enjoy each other.

Even though he knew that it had the function of psychological suggestion and guidance, the old emperor still couldn't help smiling.

　Goodnight everybody
