Obtain the divine power at the beginning

Xi'an City.

After a busy day of official duties in the simple Three Provinces Governor's Mansion, Shi Tianyu was really tired.

I even want to drink. Even when I lie down sometimes, my brain is still working at high speed and it is difficult to calm down.

Post-war reconstruction was really hard.

It is easy to say that it is easy to comfort the people and keep the country safe, but it is difficult to do. It requires real money. Every time Shi Tianyu inspects a place, he needs to repeatedly talk about his governance philosophy, how to love the people like his own children, how to attract businessmen to invest and start businesses, how to make sure that all children can go to school and have books, and that only when people have culture can their thinking be enlightened, and they can become civilized, and they can make more money to support their families, etc. But here, Qin Feng is tough and difficult to educate.

Some officials have lived in poverty-stricken and backward areas for a long time and have rigid ideas. Often, even after Shi Tianyu talked for a long time, they still didn't understand what he was saying and were confused.

Shi Tianyu had no choice but to transfer Zhu Xiang and Dai Yutian to Qin to serve as prefects in order to drive a change in the ideological thinking of some officials.

Now, Shi Tianyu finds it really hard to fall asleep without drinking to numb himself.

These days, Shi Tianyu has not returned to the system space to spend time with his wives and concubines. He feels overwhelmed and very tired.

~

So, that night, Shi Tianyu took a jar of wine and returned to his attic on the third floor, ready to drink some wine, get himself drunk, and then have a good sleep.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Tang Meiling waiting for him in the room.

Shi Tianyu was stunned.

~

Tang Meiling was indeed very beautiful, and at this moment, she was as green and juicy as a new bamboo shoot. When she saw Shi Tianyu coming in, she stood up and threw herself into Shi Tianyu's arms, saying delicately, "Husband, have you forgotten Ling'er? After the rebellion was put down, why did you come directly to Shaanxi? Why didn't you stay in Chengdu for a while? Why?"

The night wind blew, blowing up Tang Meiling's long hair.

What Shi Tianyu saw was a pretty and sweet face.

So, Shi Tianyu put down the jar of wine, thought that this was his fate, and had no choice but to let it go. He hugged Tang Meiling and rolled into the bed.

……

~

The autumn breeze is refreshing and natural, the mountain flowers are in full bloom, and the autumn colors are beautiful.

During the day, accompanied by He Baofu, Lu Yuan, Tang Meiling and others, Shi Tianyu traveled all over the mountains and rivers of Qin, sympathized with the people, and proposed four things: "repairing houses for villagers, redividing land, setting up schools, and attracting investment" so that the people could have fields to plant, houses to live in, books to read, and become rich. The first three things can be effective by spending money.

The last thing requires long-term efforts.

At the same time, Shi Tianyu recommended Sun Chuanting, who had been unemployed at home because he was dissatisfied with Wei Yan's dictatorship, to come out of retirement and take up the post of Shaanxi Chief Justice, and recommended Hong Chengchou to be the Shaanxi Commandery. This combination formed a powerful three-office in Qin to implement the four things proposed by Shi Tianyu, thereby attracting population return.

At night, Shi Tianyu and Tang Meiling were inseparable.

While accompanying Shi Tianyu on his inspection tours of various places in Qin, Tang Meiling also tacitly identified some mountains, rivers and passes. Relying on her innate talent and super memory, every day when Shi Tianyu was busy meeting various guests, Tang Meiling drew maps of these mountains, rivers and passes based on her memory, and asked Peng Jinshi, who came secretly to meet with them, to take the maps away and hand them over to Aobai and other powerful generals for safekeeping, or send someone to take them back to Liaodong and hand them over to Huang Taiji or Nurhaci.

This was the time when Tang Meiling was enjoying success in both her career and love life.

Because Shi Tianyu was too busy to have the energy to pamper other wives, he could only pamper Tang Meiling, and he didn't know what Tang Meiling did behind his back.

~

The practical policy measures made Shi Tianyu gain the hearts and reputation of the people in Qin. Two months later, Yao Luyang led Gao Jianguang, Qian Youyu, Jiang Zaixing, Li Baiqing and other wealthy merchants from Sichuan to Qin to invest and start businesses, and they also received rich returns. These wealthy merchants got a lot of fields, forests and mineral resources from Shi Tianyu.

Having just experienced a war, the imperial court had no time to send a mining supervisor. The merchants wanted a reward for their efforts. They donated money and grain to Shi Tianyu to do practical things for the people, and they also wanted to get back the huge rewards that belonged to them.

The big managers of "Yujing Chain Bank" Zhou Shaozhou and He Zhanyong also went to Xi'an and opened a branch of "Yujing Chain Bank" and a branch of "Fengqinyuan". "Fengqinyuan" was full of beautiful women.

This was also the beauty selected from Jiangnan by Zhou Shaozhou at Shi Tianyu's request.

The presence of beautiful women attracted many merchants from all over the country to invest and start businesses in Qin.

~

The situation in Qin has improved, and Shi Tianyu decided to go back to Sichuan to take a look. He couldn't let Dai Kun be idle.

As for Diankun, Shi Tianyu didn't want to go there, because there was a Prince Mu there. If he went to Diankun, Shi Tianyu would definitely intervene if he saw something he didn't like, but this would cause a conflict with Prince Mu.

Why not, Shi Tianyu will actually be the governor of the two provinces.

Anyway, it is impossible to raise too much money and food at once to pacify the people and maintain peace in central Yunnan.

Therefore, Shi Tianyu decided to temporarily avoid this contradiction and take care of Qinchuan and other two provinces. Shi Tianyu was going back to Sichuan for inspection, and Yao Luyang, Gao Jianguang and other Yin merchants would definitely accompany him, firstly to visit relatives in Sichuan, and secondly to show that he had a close relationship with the governors of the three provinces.

~

Tang Meiling naturally also accompanied them.

However, Tang Meiling had already decided in her heart to get rid of Shi Tianyu, who was the "thorn in her side".

The more popular Shi Tianyu is, the more Tang Meiling wants to get rid of him.

Because this involves the interests of the Ming Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, and has nothing to do with love.

No matter how much Tang Meiling loves Shi Tianyu, she will be an enemy of the Ming Dynasty in the future. If Shi Tianyu is not eliminated, Tang Meiling will feel that it will be difficult for the Jin soldiers to enter China, to gain control of the Central Plains, and to gain control of the world.

After accompanying Shi Tianyu for several months, Tang Meiling has found a way to get rid of Shi Tianyu.

~

When the autumn wind blows, the leaves are dyed into beautiful bright red and golden yellow.

The Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion in the Imperial Palace was always crowded with people.

At this time, the commander of the imperial guards, Wan Yuankang, led Aobai in disguise.

In order to gain Wei Zhongxian's support, under the guidance of Wan Yuankang, Oboi entered Wei Zhongxian's study. Oboi put aside his self-esteem and airs, knelt down to Wei Zhongxian, and had a secret chat with Wei Zhongxian for two hours.

No third party knows what the specific content is.

But there is one thing. Oboi presented Wei Zhongxian with a lot of supporting materials that Shi Tianyu was the son of Shi Feiyang, the world's number one hero twenty years ago. The handwriting was neat and tidy, and there were a series of portraits of Shi Tianyu without clothes. Oboi pointed to Shi Tianyu's birthmark on the portraits and told Wei Zhongxian.

~

Oboi promised that if Wei Zhongxian could eliminate Shi Tianyu, the Jin soldiers could return some strategic fortresses such as Guangning Prefecture, Songshan Fort, Xiping Fort, etc. to the Ming army, and also promised not to attack the Lindan tribe.

In this way, the Jin soldiers also returned half of Liaodong to the Ming Dynasty. Aobai signed a contract on the spot and handed it to Wei Zhongxian. However, the contract would only take effect after seeing Shi Tianyu's head.

Such an important exchange condition made Wei Zhongxian think of the great merit of defeating the enemy without fighting.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian was immediately bewitched and agreed to Oboi's request. If he could take back half of Liaodong, Zhu Youxiao would be happy and excited, and he would be able to sit back and relax and live a few more years, maybe even decades more.

~

Jiang Meilin rode back to Kyoto and came to the "Mingjing" inn. After Shi Yuyan and other heroes left, Jiang Meilin met with her parents in secret. She reported Shi Tianyu's physical characteristics in detail to her father Jiang Chaoyuan and mother Ren Jing, and presented her father Jiang Chaoyuan with the treasure map of the Ming Cult that she copied from Shi Tianyu's back.

Jiang Chaoyuan was overjoyed, and then he took a bath, changed his clothes, and went to the palace to meet Zhu Youxiao.

In this way, both Jiang Chaoyuan and Wei Zhongxian had obtained all the "evidence" to put Shi Tianyu to death.

~

The bright moon hangs in the sky, casting its light all over the ground.

At this time, in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao was lying on the dragon couch. After listening to Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai, and Murong Sheng's report on the suppression of the rebellion, he suddenly became radiant and energetic. He ordered someone to summon Empress Zhang and Crown Prince Zhu Junkai, and said to Empress Zhang: "Empress, help me up and take a walk in the Imperial Garden."

Empress Zhang was very surprised and excited, so she helped Zhu Youxiao up and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you are awake? Why didn't you tell me in advance?" At this time, Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai and Murong Sheng had already left the Qianqing Palace and returned to their homes to visit their relatives.

~

Zhu Youxiao said, "Queen, I was in a daze before, but when I heard Minister Kou, Minister Li, and Minister Murong saying that Shi Tianyu had chopped off Xu Guan's head, I don't know why, but I suddenly became completely awake. Let's go for a walk outside. Minister Murong talked about how Minister Shi comforted the people and maintained peace in the country. I was really excited and moved. I am also very relieved about the Qinchuan area. Minister Shi is indeed a good and honest official who loves the people like his own children! He wore golden armor after a hundred battles in the yellow sand, and Shi Lang's ingenious plan brought peace to the world. Not bad! Not bad!" After that, he laughed again, like a naughty child, holding Queen Zhang in one hand and Zhu Junkai in the other, and walked out of the bedroom together.

~

The guards dispersed nervously and stood guard.

While holding hands with Empress Zhang and Zhu Junkai, Zhu Youxiao vividly told Empress Zhang how Shi Tianyu suppressed the rebellion, pacified the people and maintained peace in the country, and set up schools to strengthen the education of the people's children.

The family of three strolled among the flowers, plants and trees in the Imperial Garden, breathing the fresh air.

Zhu Junkai was still very young, but after listening to how Shi Tianyu quelled the rebellion, he actually said with emotion: "With a talent like Lord Shi, His Majesty can rest easy. The most creative thing Lord Shi did was to proactively allocate excess silver to support the war in Liaodong. Very good! Very good!" At such a young age, he was far-sighted and truly had the talent of an emperor.

Zhu Youxiao and Empress Zhang burst into laughter, and were very satisfied with Zhu Junkai's performance. Empress Zhang's heart also drifted with the wind, wandering in the infinite beauty of her husband's lingering love. The night wind blew, and the leaves swayed.

After walking for a while, Empress Zhang asked again in confusion: "Your Majesty, Lord Shi Aiqing wants to pacify the people and maintain peace in the country, and he also has to support Liaodong's grain supply. He also gave 50,000 taels of silver to Pan Ruzhen in Huguang, and he also wants to reduce the taxes of the people in Qinchuan for three years. So, what will Lord Shi Aiqing use to develop the three provinces of Yunnan, Sichuan and Shaanxi and support so many soldiers? How can he run schools and pacify the people and maintain peace in the country?"

~

Zhu Youxiao said: "Shi Aiqing is both wise and brave, and has great foresight. On the one hand, he collected countless money and grain from the rebels. On the other hand, Shi Aiqing vigorously developed the handicraft industry and introduced many wealthy merchants from Jiangnan to Qinchuan to invest and start businesses.

Third, many wealthy merchants donated a lot of money and grain to Shi Aiqing, all of which were deposited into the public treasury of the provincial governments in Qinchuan under the witness and supervision of Zhang Jiaxuan and Sun Chuanting, the upright judicial inspectors of the two places, and Zhang Jiaxuan and Sun Chuanting were authorized to supervise their use.

Fourth, Shi Aiqing has already started military settlement to solve the problem of military supplies. Shi Aiqing has now begun to inspect the prefectures, counties and cities of Qinchuan, inspecting the repair of houses and the establishment of schools. Shi Aiqing said that the money for the next spring administration can be raised by holding the Chengdu Lantern Festival, without the need for the court to allocate funds. The Chengdu Lantern Festival is already famous all over the world. If Shi Aiqing holds it, it will attract wealthy merchants from all over the world to invest and start businesses in Sichuan and Shaanxi.

Shi Aiqing is very good at managing money! I have thought about it. Since the cabinet chief Ye Xianggao wants to resign, let him resign, let Wei Guangwei serve as the cabinet chief, and let Shi Aiqing concurrently serve as the Minister of Revenue. In this way, the court will never lack money and grain again. "

~

Upon hearing this, Empress Zhang and Zhu Junkai both clapped their hands and said in unison: "Great! Lord Shi is so talented!"

Empress Zhang said to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, it was right for you to send Shi Aiqing to Liaodong to gain experience in the military. I now have a deeper understanding of this." Haha! Zhu Youxiao laughed out loud, feeling very proud.

At this time, Feng Tianzhu came to report that Zhu Chaoyuan, following the order of the late emperor, had come to the palace to ask for an audience with His Majesty, and that Zhu Chaoyuan had already paid a visit to Prince Xin Zhu Youjian. Zhu Youjiao ordered Feng Tianzhu to take Zhu Chaoyuan to the Southern Study Room of the Qianqing Palace to wait for orders. Feng Tianzhu left as ordered.

~

Empress Zhang and Zhu Junkai were stunned and asked in astonishment: "Zhu Chaoyuan? Who is he? Is there such a prince in the royal family?"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "The son of the late emperor, my uncle, was entrusted by the late emperor to sneak into the martial arts world to investigate the most wanted criminal of the court, Shi Feiyang. My uncle is very capable and founded the Snow Mountain Sect, which has become one of the nine major martial arts sects in the world today. Okay, the queen and Kai'er will go to rest first. I have to go to act as an official. Let's listen to what the uncle says first."

Empress Zhang asked nervously, "Will this involve Qing Shi? Qing Shi is so loyal to the court and to Your Majesty. He has made great contributions in suppressing rebellions, pacifying the people and maintaining peace, and developing the Qinchuan land. Your Majesty, please handle all matters involving Qing Shi with caution. Because Qing Shi is a talent recommended by Princess Zhu Yingya. Before this, he had been wandering around the world, being besieged, assassinated and hunted down everywhere. His identity is innocent and has no stain. Your Majesty, please do not listen to anyone's dirty words about Qing Shi." Zhu Youxiao nodded and turned away.

Zhu Junkai held Empress Zhang's hand and returned to Kunning Palace, but found that Empress Zhang's palms were covered with cold sweat.

However, Zhu Junkai did not say anything and did not ask any questions. However, despite his young age, his brows were furrowed.

~

No one knows what Zhu Chaoyuan said to Zhu Youxiao in the South Study Room of the Qianqing Palace. Anyway, Zhu Chaoyuan presented a lot of materials to Zhu Youxiao for review, and also reported the location of the Ming Cult's treasure. He asked Zhu Youxiao to immediately dispatch troops to mine the treasure in the nameless mountain on the outskirts of Kaifeng Prefecture. If no treasure was found, it would prove that the treasure must have been taken away by Shi Tianyu in advance.

It is said that Shi Tianyu's left middle finger possesses magic.

So, Zhu Chaoyuan persuaded Zhu Youxiao again that if necessary, the Emperor could have someone cut off Shi Tianyu's middle finger of his left hand to verify the old minister's words.

In order to find out Shi Tianyu's background, the old minister sent his daughter to be an undercover agent beside Shi Tianyu. The old minister's daughter is also a princess of the imperial court! The old minister and the princess risked everything.

The princess struggled with this for several years before she made up her mind to go undercover beside Shi Tianyu, which cost her a huge price.

However, Shi Tianyu still hides some things from my Lin'er.

~

Zhu Youxiao was listening to Zhu Chaoyuan's story while looking through some materials. He asked, "Does Shi Tianyu know his true life experience? If even Shi Tianyu himself doesn't know his true life experience, how can we know Shi Tianyu's true life experience?"

Facing the emperor's questioning, Zhu Chaoyuan said somewhat awkwardly: "Shi Tianyu himself is also investigating his own true life experience, but he has not yet found out his true life experience." Zhu Youjiao looked up to the sky and sighed, and said: "Uncle, how do you want me to kill Shi Tianyu? He is a hero in suppressing the rebellion, and he is a hero in the reconstruction of Qinchuan after the war. If I kill him now, how do you want me to explain to the people of the world? Do you want me to get rid of the donkey after it has done its work? Do you want me to put away the bow after the bird is killed, and to cook the dog after the rabbit is dead?

If you want to kill Shi Tianyu, I can just say one word. But, has the emperor's uncle ever thought about the consequences of killing Shi Tianyu?

This move will give others a handle, and someone may use this as an excuse to claim that I killed meritorious officials and lost the support of the people, and then raise an army to start a rebellion. The court is now facing internal and external troubles! My body can't stand such a torment. "

~

Zhu Chaoyuan said in embarrassment: "But if Shi Tianyu is not killed, the court will always have troubles. Your Majesty, first find an excuse to strip Shi Tianyu of his power and military authority. Especially the imperial sword in his hand, Your Majesty must take it back.

This time, Shi Tianyu killed Fang Shizhong, Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, and Xun Jinchi with the sword bestowed by the emperor, which made Zhang Jiaxuan, the Chief Justice of Sichuan, dare not say a word, and Dai Kun, the Provincial Governor, dare not even fart.

Shi Tianyu arbitrarily executed his own officials without going through the trial and verdict of the Supreme Court. This was a show of authority that was truly terrifying.

What if, later on, Shi Tianyu found out his true background, used the imperial sword to show off his power, commanded an army of hundreds of thousands, and started a rebellion? This would be a fatal blow to the imperial court!

It is undeniable that Shi Tianyu is indeed a pillar of talent, but he is also a fierce tiger. Your Majesty, if you let the tiger go back to the mountains, there will be endless troubles! If Your Majesty lets the tiger go back to the mountains, the hardships and efforts of my family of three hiding in the rivers and lakes will be in vain. "

~

Zhu Youxiao held the flag up and hesitated, and said in embarrassment: "Uncle, please go back for now, let me think about it carefully. I will ask Feng Tianzhu to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately to take out ten thousand taels of silver for your uncle to live a good life. If your uncle is tired of being in the martial arts world, he can return to Kyoto to settle down. It has been difficult for your uncle to hide in the martial arts world for decades. You have worked hard!"

Zhu Chaoyuan said awkwardly and anxiously: "Your Majesty, what I need is not money, but the court to eliminate the hidden dangers as soon as possible. In particular, Your Majesty, please do not reuse Wei Yan and his gang. Eunuchs have been monopolizing power since ancient times and they are causing chaos in the court!"

~

Zhu Youxiao said no more, stood up, walked to the door, opened it, waved for Feng Tianzhu to come over, and asked Feng Tianzhu to lead some guards to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get the money immediately.

Feng Tianzhu obeyed the order and left.

At this time, Han Chaozhen came to report that the Ninth Prince paid a visit to the Long Live Emperor.

Zhu Chaoyuan knelt down helplessly and bid farewell to Zhu Youxiao. He stood up and walked out of the South Study, came to the Imperial Garden, and waited for Feng Tianzhu to bring him the silver.

The Snow Mountain Sect has thousands of disciples hiding in secret, so it does require a lot of money and food.

~

Wei Zhongxian entered the Southern Study, holding a large pile of materials and portraits proving that Shi Tianyu was the son of Shi Feiyang, and met Zhu Youxiao. He told Zhu Youxiao that Shi Tianyu was the orphan of Shi Feiyang, the court's most wanted criminal, and used a large amount of materials and portraits as evidence.

Zhu Youxiao asked in astonishment, "Your Majesty, before, when the rebellion was about to be put down, you strongly recommended Shi Aiqing to be promoted to the position of Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince, the Chief Grain Officer of the Imperial Court, the Governor of Seven Provinces, and the Governor-General of the Army of Qinchuan, Huguang and Three Provinces. Why are you going back on your word now? Now you want to put Shi Aiqing to death again?"

~

Wei Zhongxian was so angry that he was fuming and his face turned red.

However, he was also very loyal to Zhu Youxiao, and still said: "I am guilty of not fully realizing that the criminal Shi Tianyu is the son of Shi Feiyang, the most wanted criminal in the court. Although I have been recommending Shi Tianyu to be an official, I have never relaxed my investigation of Shi Tianyu's true life experience. The daughter of the old minister, Wei Xueyan, was conferred the title of Princess Changxiang by His Majesty. She has always been grateful to the court and His Majesty, and has been working hard to investigate Shi Tianyu's true life experience.

Now, this large amount of evidence has proved that Shi Tianyu is the son of Shi Feiyang, the most wanted criminal in the imperial court. Your Majesty can take away some of Shi Tianyu's power, especially the military power. Moreover, Feng Zhenting, Xu Li, and Fu Xing are all officials in Sichuan, and they can immediately take over the vacancies left by Shi Tianyu and take over the military power.

I am willing to take responsibility for the crime of failing to supervise Shi Tianyu. I ask for a demotion. I ask Your Majesty to make up your mind to immediately remove all power from Shi Tianyu and later find another crime to arrest him and bring him to justice, so as to fulfill the wishes of the late emperor and the late emperor. Otherwise, letting the tiger go back to the mountain will bring endless troubles.

Furthermore, as long as we kill Shi Tianyu and take out his head, Nurhaci can return half of Liaodong to our Heavenly Dynasty and stop attacking the Lindan tribe, so that Your Majesty can rest assured from now on."

After saying that, he took out the signed contract given to him by Oboi and placed it in front of Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at the contract and asked in shock: "Your Highness, you even believed Nurhachi's lies? You? You are too naive, aren't you? Your Highness, I tell you, this contract is too thin to even wipe your butt."

~

At this time, Prince Xin Zhu Youjian asked for an audience.

When Zhu Youjian entered the Southern Study and saw Wei Zhongxian there, he hesitated to speak.

Zhu Youxiao asked with a smile: "Are you here to report Shi Tianyu, my dear Lord?"

Zhu Youjian blushed, but nodded.

He was also very smart and understood the meaning behind Zhu Youxiao's words.

Zhu Youjian has always hated Wei Zhongxian so much that he wanted to tear him to pieces.

However, Zhu Youjian joined forces with Wei Zhongxian at this time and demanded that Zhu Youxiao immediately deprive Shi Tianyu of all his power, take back the imperial sword, and later send a master of the Embroidered Uniform Guard to arrest Shi Tianyu and bring him to justice.

Zhu Youxiao picked up the contract signed by Aobai and handed it to Zhu Youjian, saying, "Brother, take a look. The Jin soldiers want to kill Shi Aiqing. Do you have the contract signed by Aobai?"

Zhu Youjian glanced at the contract and said cleverly, "I will study these contents carefully later."

After that, he put away the contract and hid it in his pocket. In the future, with this contract, he could find an opportunity to convict Wei Zhongxian of colluding with foreign thieves and usurping the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, tonight, Zhu Youjian had a huge gain no matter what.

However, Wei Zhongxian was so focused on the execution of Shi Tianyu that he did not pay much attention to Zhu Youjian's expression. Zhu Youxiao also disagreed and was quite hesitant about how to convict Shi Tianyu or whether to convict him.

Shi Tianyu was needed to suppress the rebellion, to rebuild after the war, and to raise grain and funds. Zhu Youxiao really couldn't do without Shi Tianyu! Therefore, Zhu Youxiao was very conflicted at this time.

~~
At this moment, Wan Yuankang, who was patrolling in the palace, suddenly spotted a dark shadow lying on the roof of the Southern Study Room of the Qianqing Palace. He shouted angrily, "There's an assassin! Someone come! Someone come quickly! Someone come quickly to protect His Majesty!"

After drinking, he suddenly jumped up and slapped the black shadow on the roof.

Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youjian and Wei Zhongxian were so frightened that they hid under the desk.

Countless guards pushed open the study door, drew their swords and held shields to protect Zhu Youxiao's desk.

~

It was incredible when Wanyuankang displayed his "Kunlun Flame Skill".

The black shadow felt the heat wave on its face and quickly leaped over from the roof.

When Wanyuankang saw the black shadow, he didn't dare to chase it. Instead, he stood on the roof and stood there in a daze, suddenly feeling a little scared.

Judging from her figure, it can be seen that the black shadow must be Wei Xueyan.

To offend Wei Xueyan is equivalent to offending Wei Zhongxian.

To offend Wei Zhongxian was equivalent to offending Zhu Youxiao.

Suddenly, cold sweat broke out on Wanyuankang's forehead.

~

Countless guards drew their swords and chased after Wei Xueyan, but Wei Xueyan flew up and down in the air several times, and floated down in the back garden of Jiuqian Mansion, took off the mask, came to the side wing room, took clothes from He Xiangu and Juping, took off the night clothes, changed back to the long skirt, and swaggered into the hall again, waiting for Wei Zhongxian to return, to ask Wei Zhongxian why he wanted to harm Shi Tianyu? Why did you easily believe Aobai's nonsense? We fought against the Jin Kingdom, and with Shi Tianyu's head, could Nurhaci return half of Liaodong to the Ming Dynasty? Was Nurhaci so stupid?
~

Countless guards were still searching for the whereabouts of the black shadow, but Wei Xueyan was already sipping tea in the hall of the Jiu Qiansui Mansion.

In the southern study room of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao, who was lying under the desk, came out from under the desk when he heard no movement outside.

Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Youjian also came out.

Zhu Youxiao was also hesitant in his heart, so he seized the opportunity, took out his "trump card", and said ambiguously to Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Youjian: "My two dear ministers, there is an assassin so late at night. You two dear ministers please go back for a while. I want to go to Kunning Palace to see if the Queen and the Prince are safe." After that, he left with his hands behind his back.

A large group of guards surrounded Zhu Youxiao and left the Qianqing Palace.

Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Youjian also left the Qianqing Palace separately, both sighing.

I spent nearly two hours talking to Zhu Youxiao, but it was all in vain.

However, Zhu Youjian remembered the contract in his pocket and decided to study it carefully after returning to the palace to see if he could use it to overthrow Wei Zhongxian and take back most of the imperial power that Wei Zhongxian had stolen.

~

After an autumn rain, the sky and the earth become clear and clean.

Chengdu.

The "Stone Chamber Study Hall" was rebuilt from the huge Dai Mansion at a cost of 10,000 taels of silver. There are small rockeries, pavilions, and bridges over flowing water. The chirping of birds, the chirping of insects, the rustling of the wind, and the gurgling of water create a very beautiful environment.

Shi Tianyu, accompanied by Dai Kun, Zhang Jiaxuan, Xiang Laixiang and others, came to inspect the "Shishi Academy".

Behind Shi Tianyu, there were also a large number of wealthy businessmen including Yao Luyang, Gao Jianguang, Qian Youyu, Jiang Zaixing, etc. The money was paid by these wealthy businessmen, and they also wanted to come and see whether their money was worth spending.
~

Zhang Jiaxuan used to disapprove of some of Shi Tianyu's actions as the prefect of Fucheng, but now he completely admires Shi Tianyu, thinking: This man named Shi is not only capable of commanding troops and fighting wars, but he also has a way of governing. He is much better than me.

At this time, the head of the hall, accompanied by several gentlemen and a group of raggedly dressed children, gathered around.

The children pulled Shi Tianyu's hands and jumped and made noises happily.

Shi Tianyu looked at the cheerful faces of the children and thought of his own miserable childhood, which was spent deep in the mountains and forests. His eyes became moist. He also felt that it was completely right for him to build a bridge to a happy life for countless children. It was not only a good deed, but also the source of his happiness.
