The king behind the empress

Chapter 21

Over the years, Tang Weiyi also suspected that her father's death was related to those powerful families, but after several investigations, she couldn't find a way to start, and finally had to let it go.

It's just that Mo Zizai didn't care about these things. He breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a little glee, "That's okay. As long as Da Zhou's money and food are enough to feed the people of Da Zhou, that's enough for me."

"It's useless."

Tang Weilu shook her head resolutely, and said: "The local aristocratic family and the court officials colluded with each other, and the forces between them are deeply intertwined. Let alone me, it was difficult for even Uncle Mo to move them."

"Last year, I also had such an idea, but as soon as I showed such an idea, I was strongly rebounded by the officials, and finally I had to let it go,"

Tang Weilu looked at her sister, then looked at Mo Zizai, and found that she couldn't get in the conversation at all, so she just stopped meddling, leaned her little head on Mo Zizai's arms, found a comfortable place, and relaxed closed his eyes.

Since leaving Mo Zizai, she has never stopped cultivating. It is the first time in these years that she has such a leisurely mood nestled in Mo Zizai's arms.

Mo Zizai reached out and rubbed Tang Weilu's little head, and said casually, "Normal methods are useless, so we should use abnormal methods."

"In my opinion, they are just a bunch of fattened pigs. As long as you sharpen your knife, you can kill them however you want."

Hearing Mo Zizai's words full of murderous intent, Tang Weiyi was startled, and said euphemistically, "Brother Mo, those aristocratic families are protected by court officials, so it's hard to bypass all the officials and attack them."

"It's not that simple."

Mo Zizai showed a faint smile on his face, but the words he said were piercingly cold, "Then kill the officials first. Without officials, those aristocratic families will naturally lose their protection. You can kill them however you want, or you can do whatever you want." kill."

After hearing Mo Zizai's words, Tang Weiyi was silent for a moment. She really wanted to refute Mo Zizai, telling him that hundreds of officials are the biggest foundation for the operation of the court. will immediately fall apart.

But based on her understanding of Mo Zizai, he doesn't care about these things at all, and he will anger him if he says it himself, so Tang Weiyi put on a forced smile on her face and said, "Brother Mo, we will talk about these things later. Bar."

Seeing Tang Weiyi's obviously insincere words, Mo Zizai withdrew the hand holding Tang Weiyi.

Feeling the hand withdrawn from her waist, Tang Weiyi was slightly disappointed, but at the same time felt a little bit wronged.

The cultivation base of myself and my sister is not yet at the level of human beings. If there is any trouble now, which leads to the early demise of Da Zhou, then they will not even have the ability to walk together with Mo Zi.

But before she could think more, she felt a fiery big hand holding her catkin.

Mo Zizai, who grabbed Tang Weiyi's small hand, asked seriously, "Weiyi, do you think the current situation in Dazhou can get worse?"

"I heard from Zhou Qi that the famine in Xiangzhou and Hanoi is almost beyond control. If we don't carry out disaster relief, if the sparks are really ignited and someone takes the lead in rebellion, there must be a lot of followers."

"I'm afraid that at that time, countless wars will be set off in the Great Zhou territory immediately. Do you think that you and Xiaolu can really use luck to successfully cultivate to the human realm?"

Tang Weiyi, who was held by Mo Zizai, knew that she was wrong, Mo Zizai was not angry, and a little sweetness appeared in her heart, but then she heard that Mo Zizai was seriously discussing the issue with him, so she suppressed the pain in her heart. Ripples, think hard.

What Mo Zizai said was possible, she had considered it before, and tried many times to change the situation, but it didn't work at all, so she would settle for the next best thing and try her best to maintain the situation, thinking about going through these years safely and steadily. All right.

"But, Brother Mo, have you considered that the imperial court has money, and if the disaster relief is to be done, it must be done by those officials, and those officials..."

Thinking of those greedy officials, Tang Weiyi couldn't help but frowned, "Those short-sighted rats don't care about the overall situation at all. No matter how much money and food they have, they can't fill their stomachs. They won't let them go." The money and food for disaster relief really fell into the hands of the victims.”

"That's because they know that the imperial court is unable to take care of them, so they lack awe of the imperial court, so they are greedy for ink without a bottom line."

Mo Zizai has considered this issue a long time ago, and has a solution to this matter, "Just set up a supervision department that is directly responsible to you to supervise those officials. If there is corruption, all officials will be killed regardless of their positions."

"They are just some corrupt officials, not revolutionary fighters, so I don't believe they are not afraid of death."

"..."

Hearing Mo Zizai's naive words, Tang Weiyi felt a little helpless, "Brother Mo, this won't work."

"Officials are most jealous of the imperial court having such an institution, so even the officials in the court who support me will definitely not agree to this matter. With the current situation, I want to forcibly establish such an institution under the opposition of all officials. Institutions, it’s not realistic at all.”

"Even if it is established forcibly, the officials will not recognize it if the name is not right, and the most important thing is that there is no way to mobilize people to form such a department now."

"No need to rebuild."

Mo Zizai showed a faint smile, "Did you forget Yuzhiji?"

"Miyaji?"

Tang Weiyi was stunned for a moment. The Yuzhi Division was established when Mo Congyi was in power. It has the power to supervise all officials and kill them first. It is a violent institution to deal with all officials.

From this point of view, it was not that Mo Congyi did not intend to take action against the officials back then, and he even took action. It was just that he was forced to stop the action as soon as he did it.

"But Yuzhiji, hasn't it already been disbanded?"

Even Yu Zhisi's director Zhou Qi was sent to protect Mo Zizai, so why did Yu Zhisi come here?

"Who said Yuzhiji was disbanded?"

Mo Zizai wanted to spread his hands, but he held one in his left hand and one in his right. He really couldn't free up his hands, so he shrugged and said, "Father only asked Zhou Qi to protect me back then, but he didn't say to dismiss Yu Zhisi." , Did your reign decree to disband Yuzhisi?"

"This is not."

Tang Weiyi shook her head. When she first came to the throne, there were often officials asking for the abolition of the Yuzhi Prison, but she ignored them. When the Yuzhi Prison gradually faded out of the officials' sight, the officials acquiesced that it was abolished. Didn't even mention it.

"But, is Yuzhiji still on hand?"

"There should be manpower, but at present, the strength should not be enough."

When Mo Congyi was in power back then, no one dared to fight against Yu Zhisi, because Mo Congyi held great power and had several elite troops in his hands. It was not Yu Zhisi that they dared to resist, but Mo Congyi.

But Tang Weiyi is different, she has nothing in her hands, and she has no way to support Yu Zhisi, so the officials don't care about Yu Zhisi at all.

He may not do anything on the surface, but he will definitely target Yu Zhisi secretly, and it is not certain that he will even directly send people to attack and kill Yu Zhisi.

Therefore, in Mo Zizai's vision, if Yu Zhisi wants to truly supervise the officials, he must have the strength to suppress everything.

And this is not difficult for Mo Zizai who has an accelerator in his hand.
