Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 626 Ghosts (2)
"Your Majesty, you can't. Now that your Majesty has just ascended the throne, people's hearts are unstable, and the princes have not yet received favors. At this time, using strong methods to force the princes to donate money and materials will definitely backfire. It will be misunderstood as a search for property!" Cheng Rong shook his head again and again. .

"This won't work, that won't work either, do you really want me to abdicate immediately?" Chu Xiu said anxiously, helpless.

"Your Majesty, I have a way. In the name of fighting traitors, confiscate the land of Lu Kai and others' manors for military use, investigate and deal with corrupt officials, and pursue the arrears!" Jue Tu suggested.

"Well, this is a good way. Toudu, Cheng Rong, this important event that wins the hearts of the people will be carried out by you together. I want you to raise all the military expenses for the army within a month, and go to the army soon!" Chuxiu Eyes With a light, he smiled with open eyes.

In Haojing City, a few days later, all kinds of rumors and gossips from the palace immediately spread among the restaurants where the dignitaries and dignitaries gathered. It was said that in order to please the emperor, Que Tu and Cheng Rong deliberately had trouble with the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and there were sensationalists. Gradually, the rumors spread more and more ugly. In the streets and alleys of the capital, it was said that Que Tu wanted to empty the king and coerce the emperor to command the princes. After all, Que Tu was slandered as a flirtatious clown.

"Young master, haven't you heard any rumors these days? You and Mr. Cheng clamored to crack down on corrupt officials, but in private, some people turned black and white, turned the words around, and accused you of trying to usurp the throne. If this continues, we It can be regarded as a complete ruin of reputation!" At sunset, An Tong, the furious general of Huben, suddenly begged to see Qu Tu, and as soon as they met, he vomited bitterness to Qu Tu.

"An Tong, I know that what we do for the king must be something that offends others. It's strange that we didn't scold at all!" Jug Tu said with a wry smile at An Tong while drinking strong wine.

"Young Master, since you know this matter is a bottomless pit, why do you and Mr. Cheng still take on this burden?" An Tong looked at Qu Tu with a mournful face.

"For the sake of Da Zhou, and for the sake of my hundreds of millions of people, even if we resist the scolding, we have to fight head-on, An Tong, do you know? Because of Si'er, I have no choice!" Ju Tu suddenly laughed loudly.

"Young master, I understand your painstaking efforts, but since you have a queen mother, you should cherish yourself even more!" An Tong persuaded earnestly.

"Myself? Do I still have myself now? Every day, what Shuilong Shurendian faces is not Si'er, but Empress Dowager Ping. If it wasn't for her to sit on it safely, it would be easier, you say? , Can I still endure until today? To be honest, according to my temper, the moment Chuxiu came to the throne, I wanted to take Si'er with me and leave Chaoyang Palace forever, and leave this place of right and wrong forever. Tell me, is it possible now?" Qu Tu raised his head, staring at the bewildered An Tong with desperate eyes.

"My lord, believe me, as long as you are willing, it is definitely possible!" An Tong put his hands on Que Tu's shoulders tightly, and stared at Que Tu resolutely.

In Chaoyang Palace, Marquis Qi canceled his trip back to the fiefdom because he heard that Xirong was invading, and returned to Shuilong Shuren Hall to wait for Chuxiu's summons. The edict to declare war was helpless, and there were many discussions.

"Ministers, take a closer look. Who drafted this extremely rude letter of war sent by the wolf lord of Xirong?" Chuxiu, who was wearing a glazed crown, looked angrily at the ministers, and went into a rage.

"This?" All the officials whispered to each other, not daring to answer easily.

"It's Lu Kai! This late emperor's trusted minister! The Prime Minister of the Great Zhou! How could there be such a brazen person in the world? Not only did he demote Xirong, but he even set up a fake Great Zhou in Xirong to support Concubine Ge and her daughter." Full Moon Prince Bao En became the Empress Dowager and the King? It is unreasonable!" The furious Chuxiu immediately kicked over the desk in front of him and roared loudly.

"Your Majesty, calm down, Lu Kai is a bastard who eats inside and outside, he deserves to die. The old minister is willing to go to Xirong to get rid of this thief for the King!"

"No, I must personally conquer!" Chuxiu suddenly said surprisingly.

"Yu Jia's personal conquest?" Cheng Rong and Ju Tu immediately changed their faces, and they hurried forward and cupped their hands and said, "Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and it is enough to go out to fight and destroy the thieves, as long as the ministers wait, how can the holy car mess around?"

"You two lovers, stop talking. I have made up my mind. Only when I personally lead the army can I show my prestige in the celestial dynasty. Besides, Lu Kai's dog thief and Concubine Ge's dog head should be taken by me personally to pay homage to him. The spirit of my late emperor!" Chuxiu announced loudly with great excitement.
