Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 112

In the silent court, no one dared to respond to the emperor's words and lead the army to take back Hebei Road?
Hundreds of thousands of Youjun were destroyed in Yu State. Was this group of people responsible for it?We all know that it was Li Pingyuan who fought, but now that he is robbed of food, can he bring a large army to fight against it?

Do you think the blade in Li Pingyuan's hand is not sharp enough?I still feel that my fate is too hard, and I am worried that the underworld will not have performance.

"It seems that no one is willing." The emperor smiled lightly, and both Qingliu and non-Qingliu people kept silent, which is really sad.

"There is no one in the civil and military courts who is willing to lead an army to take back Hebei Road?" King Yu pretended to be angry, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart.

If they are really hyenas, they rush over when they smell blood, and immediately run away when they see danger. Are these people running their own country?

I knew it early, but I still feel sad. I shouldn't have any expectations of these people.

His questioning again still failed to alert these ministers, and of course no shameless ministers stood up and said that Hebei Road belonged to Chengguo.

"Yang Xiang, Zhang Xiang, what do you think?" King Yu asked the two prime ministers.

Yang Xiangxian stood up and replied to King Yu: "The current treasury is empty and the soldiers are weak. It is not good for the country to start a war rashly. It is better to rest and recuperate for a few years before thinking about it."

"My minister believes that Hebei Dao was originally the price for asking Cheng Guo to take action, and rashly asking for it back, instead created a gap for Yu Cheng and made Zhuang Yushi, who facilitated this matter, bear the name of injustice. It needs to be carefully considered." Zhang Xiang was a little tricky. , Push the pot to Zhuang Xun.

Anyway, the attitudes of the two of them are very clear, if they don't come back, they don't want to.

"That's all, that's all, that's it." King Yu just asked the two of them to express their opinions, and the topic was originally terminated.

The court meeting should have ended like this. Zhuang Xun guarded the fruits of victory and repelled the pack of wolves.

"Jiannan Road is so dangerous, why don't Zhuang Yushi exchange it with other experienced and prudent ministers, and use the imperial guards to wipe out the banditry in Jiannan." Really unwilling to get any cheaper, Chang Wenshu, the left servant of the household department, suggested.

His position was the one that Zhuang Xun was blocked from taking. He is also a Qingliu person. Now in this situation, he wants to express himself.

"Thank you for your understanding, sir. Xun is also willing to exchange. After all, facing the pressure of Youguo's invasion at any time, Mrs. Jiang sees that she will not be rewarded for her support, and she already has the intention of withdrawing. How about I switch with you? Please, sir, turn the tide." Zhuang Xun It was very refreshing to tell Chang Wenshu to give up.

"I'm not good at military affairs." Hearing Zhuang Xun's first words, the newly-appointed left servant of the household department was happy at first. People's faces were all black.

Try to turn the tide, how can I turn the tide.

It's easy to say that Mrs. Jiang's support is withdrawn. If you country's army invades, who can protect themselves, and he is not Li Pingyuan's son-in-law. The people of You country take Li Pingyuan's thoughts into consideration.

Damn it, the loop is closed. Only Zhuang Xun can control the current Jiannan Road, with the support of a big businessman, and his father-in-law's background is so powerful that he can deter Youguo.

"Zhuang Qing, you are a senior official of the second rank. You have to change with the officials of the second rank. I don't know which minister is willing to change with Zhuang Qing." King Yu stopped Chang Wenshu's embarrassment, of course not for He cleared the siege, but to prevent other people from stepping down.

Abandoning the position of Shangshu and going to be an officer in a broken place, no one can be so crazy, everyone just pretended not to hear what King Yu said.

"Is there no one willing to clean up the bandits for me?" The emperor asked knowingly.

"I am willing, but the bandits are cunning, and Jiannan is in decline at this time, so it will take a long time." Zhuang Xun stood up and said voluntarily.

It's not that I don't suppress bandits, it's that they are too cunning and it will take a lot of time.

"Sure enough, at this critical moment, Zhuang Qing is still young and promising, and is willing to bear this burden." King Yu said with emotion, the yin and yang in the words contained everyone.

"Things within the duties of the duty, you must try your best to repay the kindness of the Holy Majesty's promotion." Zhuang Xunqian said.

"Governing Jiannan is difficult, what can Zhuang Qing ask for?" King Yu nodded in relief, and then asked Shi En.

The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty looked stupid, are you so partial?Zhuang Xun's words in the court hall actually seemed outrageous, the emperor was still so partial, and their courtiers were in a hurry.

"Chen Qizuo, the minister led Jiannan Road on behalf of the people. In order to protect the people's return and resettlement, and restart the people's livelihood, they temporarily recruited scholar Liangcai as county magistrates to govern various places and resume production. At present, these people are all white, but Guarding the frontiers and governing the land is very meritorious, since the Ministry of Officials can't send out colleagues, please Your Majesty recruit meritorious scholars, give them titles, and make the people accept them." Zhuang Xun's words were even more presumptuous, anyway, the officials of the Ministry of Officials are gnashing their teeth now. Rotten.

But in this atmosphere, no one can object anymore. The objection is that you should go to Jiannan Road?
They have the ability to enclose land and occupy fields, but they don’t have the ability to resist the Youjun. They just want to eat meat and don’t want to be beaten. Are the officials present at the third rank or above, with families and businesses, going to Jiannan Road to open up wasteland?Do you want to play such a big game?

And such an excessive request, how could King Yu agree to it? It’s fine if you secretly appoint officials, but you still want to put it on the table, and you want the emperor to agree with you.

"Okay, special cases are treated specially. You go back and submit the application form to the official department." King Yu readily agreed without any hesitation.

This directly stunned the others, so you don't care about such excessive demands?Do you want Jiannan to become Zhuang Xun's independent kingdom?He is really your dear son.

"Your Majesty, these have not passed the imperial examination, nor are they recommended by counties and counties. Please investigate for a little longer." Lu Zejun, the Minister of Dali Temple, dissuaded him, but he had no choice but to speak out.

After this step is completed, the court officials will really have no ability to intervene in the affairs of Jiannan Road. After all, the team is complete and there is nothing missing. What reason do you use to ask for interference in counties under other people's rule.

So what everyone thinks is, when we find a way to obtain Jiannan, how can you interfere after you have been appointed?

King Yu is a boy who doesn't care about selling his grandfather. He has a goal, so that he can be less afraid of being shocked by thunder. He is already ready to emulate the ancient kings.

"What else is there to investigate? If you can not escape under the pressure of the bandits, you can stabilize the people. Your virtue has passed the test. If you don't give fame and fortune rewards, and the brains are drained, will anyone help Zhuang Qing to govern Jiannan Road? You are willing to go. No, Lu Qing, are you willing to go?" King Yu said bluntly.

"The old minister is willing to go to assist Zhuang Jiedu, but the old minister has reached the age of begging for bones, and I am afraid it will be difficult to fulfill such a heavy trust." Lu Zejun said hastily.

"There is no one in the court to go, but they don't give rewards to those who do things. How can there be such a reason." Sneaking and ignoring it.

A court meeting ended like this, a large number of officials beat their chests and feet, and they seemed to have lost a lot of things in the land that had nothing to do with them, and they were downcast.

Zhuang Xun wanted to leave after the meeting, but the eunuch stopped him and took him to the apse.

He saw the Taoist priest with a gray beard, vaguely, somewhat familiar.

"Long time no see, Jiedu." The national teacher said hello first.

"Who is the Daoist?" Zhuang Xun could no longer remember him.

"Old Daoist Ge Tan, the national teacher of Yu State, made a fortune last year for Jiedu." The national teacher said with a smile on his face, his eyes were gentle, he looked at Zhuang Xun, and nodded.

Only then did Zhuang Xun feel dazed, and his memory flashed, the face of the Taoist priest who persuaded him to stay in Yindu last year suddenly snapped together.

"Old Immortal, it's you. You are the national teacher. I'm sorry." Zhuang Xun bowed his hands and said, this was the first time that Zhuang Xun met Ge Tan formally.

The national teacher has not stood in front of the stage for a long time, and has even been hidden behind the scenes for many years, his reputation is not obvious, Zhuang Xun doesn't know his weight, and Si Qinmi probably doesn't know much about him either.

"Jiedu doesn't need to be polite, please sit down, Your Majesty's summons will come soon." The national teacher invited Zhuang Xun to sit down and said.

"This doesn't look like hospitality either. Is there something for your Majesty to ask?" Zhuang Xun asked doubtfully, his mind clouded with doubts.

The words in the courtroom today can be described as extremely rebellious, and they were also instructed by King Yu, let him just say that he will help him keep the two ways, and the key point is to embarrass all officials.

That's why he said that there are many bandits in Jiannan. He originally planned to be soft on the surface and agree to let them actually experience the banditry in Jiannan.

There is also the issue of official staffing, which was also requested by King Yu on his own initiative. Although it solved a problem of court officials' interference, he didn't feel urgent. Making such a request seemed to be ambitious and ignorant.

He even doubted whether King Yu was fishing. He might not be the bait, but the fish being caught, so now he felt like he was walking on thin ice, anyway, he had already bit the bait.

I was afraid that a few guards would come out and take him down as a rebellious person, and convict him based on his ambition in the court. After all, after the actions just now, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with saying that he was rebellious.

Because the image of himself in the court is a young Jiedushi who relies on external forces and has a tendency to separatist regimes.

As for why he is so obedient, it would be disobedient if he didn't behave like this.

"There is a good thing, don't worry about Jiedu, it's a great good thing, it can help Jiedu to reorganize the mountains and rivers, and help the building to collapse." The national teacher smiled, looking very kind, and Zhuang Xun was also appeased by this.

"Restructuring the mountains and rivers, do you want to give Jiannan Road any support? It is indeed full of difficulties. My wife wrote a letter and really lacks everything, people and goods, and the most important thing is food. The common people barely have to eat, but Basically, I can’t get enough to eat.” Zhuang Xun didn’t think too far, only thinking about his own one-acre land.

"Jiedu really cares about the common people." The national teacher nodded in satisfaction.

"How should I put it, it's not that I care about the common people. I just think that they are living well, at least they are full. I don't feel guilty about eating for my own pleasure, because I am supported by them."

Zhuang Xun shook his head, he knew who he was, he was not the kind with high consciousness, for example, if he could enjoy Li Rusi, their master and servant three, it showed that he was not a saint.

He also doesn't hide his lust, at least in Chengyuyou Three Kingdoms, it's not a moral stain, and it can be said to be a romantic act. After all, it's not exactly ancient China, and even ancient China was like this for a period of time.

However, he is not an independent husband and a traitor to the people. He hopes that he can eat meat and others can drink soup. When he enjoys the life of a feudal landlord, the people under his rule can also have enough food all day long.

"The original intention of Jiedu has not changed." The national teacher recalled the conversation with Zhuang Xun and said that at that time, his status was meager and he had no one to rely on. This was the case for Zhuang Xun, who had no reputation. Zhuang Xun is still like this.

"What original intention is it? It's just a conscience. Anyway, I can't do the kind of behavior where my people are going to die, and I can still take away from them." The national teacher seemed to have an affinity, and said many things involuntarily.

"Not bad, not bad, there is a portrait of a benevolent king." The national teacher praised after hearing this.

"Master, you can't talk nonsense." Zhuang Xun raised his head vigilantly and looked around, but there was no one, eunuchs and maids were far away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, they didn't hear it, and you will understand Jiedu soon." The national teacher smiled and looked at Zhuang Xun's immature face. He was two years younger than the emperor's youngest son, but he didn't expect the emperor He was chosen in the end.

"What do you know, National Teacher..."

"National teacher, my lord, I invite you." The eunuch said to the two after entering the door.

Following the eunuch through the corridor, in front of a palace, he opened the palace door, made a gesture of invitation, and stayed where he was.

Looking at the pitch-black palace, Zhuang Xun felt eerie and terrifying, and dared not go forward. The national teacher stepped forward, and Zhuang Xun could only follow, and walked into this deep palace.

Walking into the palace, there seemed to be light in the dark palace. Following the national teacher, the light gradually expanded. When he got closer, he saw a huge stone glowing with fluorescence. King Yu stood beside the stone, with hollow eyes and a thin body. Like a clay sculpture.

The lamps were lit, and the candles illuminated the palace. It turned out that the surrounding windows were sealed by wooden boards, so they were not able to see through the light. The attendants lit up the lamps one by one until the last one was lit, and then retreated one by one. .

"My lord." Zhuang Xun was about to salute, but the national teacher stopped him.

Zhuang Xun was forced to look at the stone together. After looking at it, it turned out to be a whole piece of Shoushan Jade. He was a little shocked. How much is such a large Shoushan Jade worth?

"Zhuang Qing, national teacher... Sorry, I'm fascinated." Yu Wang was full of apology, and Zhuang Xun finally realized it.

"I refer to the sage." Zhuang Xun reacted and added the courtesy.

"Okay, there is no need to see each other between you and me." King Yu helped Zhuang Xun up. Compared with the appearance of needing someone to lift him in the main hall, in this room, King Yu has healthy limbs and is very strong in supporting people.

For a moment, Zhuang Xun thought that King Yu was just pretending to be carried up to the palace by someone. After all, his steady steps didn't look like he was suffering from a serious illness.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I don't know what your Majesty's explanation will be for leaving the minister behind." He couldn't stay in this eerie environment for a moment, feeling his body was cold.

"Don't be nervous, calm down, and show the momentum you just had to argue with the officials in the court." Yu Wang said cheerfully.

"Just now, I was speechless to what Baiguan said, refreshing, refreshing, a group of hyenas, one by one hides faster when in danger, and jumps higher than one when they are robbing the official position."

King Yu laughed, all the officials were speechless and didn't dare to answer the words, but he was so happy. Today was one of the few times he laughed happily. But the coolest thing is today.

"It's all according to His Majesty's wishes. I don't dare to be so bold." Zhuang Xun smiled wryly. This kind of aggressiveness was forced by King Yu. He is more restrained, and he always kills people quietly. If you dare to come, you will be killed.

"To be a Jiedu envoy, you can't do without ambition and courage!" King Yu patted Zhuang Xun on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"I don't have any ambitions. Governing Jiannan Road well is my biggest vision." Zhuang Xun is very loyal in front of King Yu.

"I know, last time you asked me to send officials to help you manage Jiannan Road, I knew it, but you are still a little ambitious in the situation you are about to face." King Yu encouraged again.

"I understand." I always feel that King Yu looks weird today, and his physical condition and attitude are good, so let's agree for now.

"Why don't you wear the python robe I gave you today." King Yu didn't answer him, but asked him what he was wearing today.

"I hope the Holy Majesty forgives the sin. The clothes given by the Holy Majesty have been destroyed in the Chengguo Rebellion." He Tan wore them to seek death, but the clothes had been destroyed.

"If it's ruined, it's ruined. What's the matter? I've prepared a new one for you. Go try it on." King Yu stopped Zhuang Xun from pleading guilty, and pointed to the box.

"Of order." Zhuang Xun opened the box, and saw the twelve-pronged tiara at first sight. With a shake of his hand, the box closed.

"My lord, the father-in-laws may have taken the wrong clothes." Zhuang Xun pressed the box and said.

"It's not wrong. It should fit your size. It's changed according to the clothes you chose last time. Try them on." King Yu said affirmatively.

"Your Majesty, there is a mianfu inside!" Zhuang Xun wept sadly, he knew what a mianfu was.

"I know, try it, how many people want to wear it for a lifetime, but they have no chance." King Yu said with a smile, with a haggard face, this smile made Zhuang Xun hesitate.

"Your Majesty asked you to wear it, so you can wear it for him to see." The national teacher echoed.

"No, I dare not, this, is..."

"You can wear it as long as you are told, and it won't hurt you. I have something important to tell you about wearing it..." King Yu pretended to be angry.

"No, well, the minister has overstepped..." After all, he is a time traveler, and he is not particularly in awe of etiquette.

Like trying on clothes slowly, he put the crown suit on his body, left and right moon toad, golden crow, cloud and dragon patterns, and the king of Yu, who didn't know where he didn't understand, gave on-site guidance, and slowly put this coat on his body.

Don't feel uncomfortable wearing it, especially the board on top of his head, which is really heavy, and the beads in front of his eyes are dangling, so he can only force himself to stand upright and wait for the trial.

The clothes are also very heavy. No wonder the emperor needs someone to help him walk around in this suit. In the film and television dramas, the emperor dangled in the mian suit, as if he could not feel the weight, which only shows that the mian suit cut corners.

"The posture of the dragon and the phoenix, the posture of the dragon and the phoenix..." King Yu instructed Zhuang Xun to put on the mian suit, and was very satisfied with his work.

"My lord, why on earth is this? I am terrified." Zhuang Xun couldn't help saying after being stuffed with a jade ruyi.

No matter how I look at it, I feel that there is a big conspiracy waiting for me, no, King Yu wants to go back to Jiannan Road, and it's not like I don't want to give it up. There's no need to make such a big circle, let me wear this kind of clothes, what is he planning.

"I have already decided to entrust the Kingdom of Yu to you, Aiqing." After observing for a long time, King Yu seemed to find himself in the mirror when he was young.

A little immature, wearing the crown suit for the first time, still a little scared, feeling the weight of the suit, but still straightened up, accepting the worship of the officials.

Compared with himself, Zhuang Xun felt a little more uneasy, because his identities did not match.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to assist you? I am willing. This robe is too scary. Can I take it off?" Zhuang Xun felt that his body was so heavy that he wanted to pull it off quickly.

"Wear more, let me see more, what will the emperor of Yu Kingdom look like in the future, no, maybe he can't be called Yu Kingdom anymore." King Yu said with a smile, his smile was so kind that even Zhuang Xun's heart would beat Out.

What does this mean?What about the future emperor of Yu Kingdom, he knows that he has the emperor's veins?Knowing that he was plotting against his family?
Why not take yourself down and beheaded.

"I'm terrified and puzzled? Please tell me..." Zhuang Xun said terrified, the feeling is probably true.

"Put on this clothes, from now on you can only kneel down." King Yu supported Zhuang Xun to prevent him from kneeling, and warned him at the same time.

"To put it simply, I am dissatisfied with all the heirs... Zhuang Qing, you are very capable. I would like to follow the example of the ancient sage kings. Zen is in your hands." King Yu took two steps back, the more he looked at it, the more delighted he was. explain.

"No, no... I don't have this kind of ability..." Zhuang Xun's heart was about to jump out. It was too exciting. The King Cheng who specially approved the resurrection of debts in Chengguo hadn't done this kind of thing yet, but Mr. Yu Done.

"The reason why I let Qing wear this dress today is to dispel Qing's doubts. It is not a test, so Qing should not have any worries."

King Yu was very frank, and he knew that his thoughts were shocking.

"It's not that I have doubts. I don't have the heart and the ability. Please choose another talented person. The children of the royal family have many talents." Zhuang Xun refused.If I want to do it, I have to be strong and strong. How dare I take what others give me, Zhuang Xun thought to himself.

"Don't give up three times. Your Majesty is sincerely letting the king be in Jiedu. Looking at the kings and Jiedu, Jiedu is the most virtuous. Most of the clan's children are corrupted by life, or they are talented, but they are not as good as Jiedu." "The national teacher said, he seemed to be convincing because of his immortal demeanor.

"No, I don't understand, why?" The revived Cheng Guo only sent one to himself. Are you going to send the country here?
"Yu Country's Mandate of Heaven has been lost, and a new Mandate of Heaven is needed... At present, His Majesty and the old Taoist have taken a fancy to Jiedu. In order to reduce Jiedu's resistance to gaining the State of Yu, he specially entrusted him with orders today." The national teacher began to explain the Mandate of Heaven.

Zhuang Xun said this once through King Lunzhuan, and he was quite familiar with it, but it was also the first time he knew that King Yu turned into a demon and cut off the destiny of the Kingdom of Yu, and the big stone in front of him had the body of King Yu .

Things that were confusing and confusing became clear.

"Xun doesn't understand how to regain the destiny, and why the two of you are interested in Xun." Zhuang Xun asked the national teacher.

"If you kill a new king, you will have the destiny. This is an outstanding person. As for why you choose Jiedu, apart from the fact that Jiedu does have the will to help the world, it is probably because Jiedu stands behind Chengdu." The national teacher said to King Yu analysis.
