The Master of the Kingdom

After Su Yi returned home, he asked the butler Jingzhong about the form.

After walking for more than a year, Beijing Central has undergone tremendous changes, not to mention the changes.

One year after Jinshi opened a subject, it finally showed its influence slightly. The second-class Jinshi is still practicing in the middle of Korea, and the third-class magistrate has already established a firm foothold in the locality. The aristocratic families didn't think much at first. Although these people were officials, they all started from a low level. The Yu Dynasty has a wide area, and the family will only stare at their own ancestral land, or the more affluent places. And even if the magistrates in these places are not their own family members, as long as their family members are still high officials in the court, there is nothing wrong with them.

They did not intend to stand on their own feet.

So compared to the few Jinshi who stayed in Beijing, the family was a little more vigilant, and the foreign Jinshi did not arouse much attention.

The frontline was fighting again, and Su Tianshi was still assassinated. The situation in Korea and China was tense for a time, and the aristocratic family couldn't separate their minds from caring for a few local officials. So when the dust settled, the aristocratic family found that the emperor had planted these jinshi as officials in wealthy and key places. They felt a little wrong, but they had no alternative.

The first Jinshi is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among the people. Even if they are admitted to the third class, their ability to deal with matters is always leveraged. Basically, the foreign scholars have made good achievements. They also firmly supported the emperor and implemented the emperor's policies thoroughly. This allows the promotion of new crops in these people's territories very quickly. As for the promotion of new crops, although the local wealthy people want to profit from it, they don’t care if they encounter someone who has to promote it. In fact, it is not necessary to antagonize the central government, but because I feel that my own food is enough to eat, I am too lazy to change, plus I want to make money through the grain.

In addition to food, the emperor also introduced many new policies, such as key tax cuts.

These policies will not be implemented in the hands of local officials controlled by the family. It is not known whose pocket the overcharged taxes will enter.

But when the magistrate was changed, these methods would not work. Unless it is the big families in the North Korea who embezzled taxes, these jinshi won't buy it.

However, although the several great families in the DPRK collected money in a thousand ways, they would not use this method that would leave an obvious handle. The emperor is just getting caught up in other things now, too lazy to investigate. If the emperor wants to check, it is impossible to conceal such things as excessive taxes. At that time, the emperor wanted to capture whoever he wanted.

To put it bluntly, the emperor fattened these fat sheep and waited for the time to slaughter the snacks.

Most of the people who can get their ideas into taxation are local tycoons or people with special intentions.

These people are guarded by officials, if they don't report it. A "nail" was inserted on the local official network, and the place where the "nail" was located was still the most critical place, so they had to stop.

Even if the "nails" had no background, they couldn't bear to come down directly from the central government, and there was also a Master Gu who ran away and didn't return to Beijing.

When Gu Ao went out for anti-drug propaganda, he hung the title of Yushi. He can directly supervise the magistrate, and directly pass the zhezi to the central government to reach Shengting.

When these local officials came out, they were all taught that they could directly give the Zhezi to Jingzhong if something happened. If you are afraid of being stopped, you can quietly pass the Zhezi to Master Gu.

Master Gu is a good official, he knows how to do it.

This group of Jinshi is not like the local officials who are "recommended" who are attached to the family. The local officials recommended are basically at the end of their official career, and they want to serve the local wealthy family well so that they can stay in this position for a long time. The current position of the local officials held by the Jinshi is just the starting point. Three years later, the group of Jinshi who stayed in the central government will end their internship, and their group will also have to be assessed. Not talking about entering the central government, these are a bit far away, but they can be promoted.

Whoever blocks their political achievements is tantamount to blocking their official career. At present, the local tycoons have not even linked the intentions of those Jinshi, and they all regard Jinshi as "foreign objects" and reject them. These jinshis can't benefit from the local tycoons, but they can get benefits by attacking them. Everyone knows how to do it.

Those who dare to pass the entrance exam as soon as the first Jinshi opens a course are themselves ambitious and gambler.

So this year is very interesting in the local area. After a year, the new crops mature, the granary is full, and the clothing made of cotton is worn on the people. The people everywhere eat and wear warmth, and even taxes are exempted. Now, I am very happy, and want thousands of people umbrellas one after another.

Jinshi are well-informed and brave, and they play very sloppyly with these methods.

The place is noisy, and the center is unstable. Although the aristocratic families in the central government will not deliberately dig money out of taxes, it does not mean that these local tycoons will not make offerings under various names in order to be blessed.

So these aristocratic families wanted to toss the disobedient local officials, but as soon as Gu Ao's mistakes came up, he listed the taxation and taxation of those places. These aristocratic families had to change their tone and said that these local officials did a good job.

Collecting taxes privately is greedy to say lighter, and more self-reliant if you say heavier.

And the family is not monolithic. There are aristocratic families who are holding back at the critical juncture of the country's recovery, and there are also aristocratic families who want to make the country stronger. This is the case for this family of families headed by the Wang family and the Mu family. Now that Mu Yan has achieved such a great battle feat, there is a faint tendency to become the leader of the family.

Although other aristocratic families have higher official positions than Mu Yan in the DPRK, but in terms of credit and prospects, no one can compare Mu Yan. It is a foreseeable situation that Mu Yan became the first person in the DPRK.

Besides, Mu Yan also has Su Yi, a celestial friend, as a god-level support.

"So, Heqing is fighting on the front line, and someone is dragging his feet behind?" Su Yi sneered, "Your Majesty has reduced taxes for so many years, and there are people who have increased the tax by several times? According to their collection method, if it weren't for Jinshi to serve as officials in the local area. To stop their greed, Ha Qingruo is trapped in Goguryeo, I'm afraid there will be a fire in the back."

Even if Su Yi didn't know much about military affairs, he knew that the attack on Goguryeo went so smoothly. It was a fluke. According to normal conditions, even if the surprise attack is successful, it would not be possible to lay down the entire territory of Goguryeo so quickly, and it would be helpless to fight back.

Mu Yan spent so much time on the battlefield of Goguryeo, basically not time for war, but staying there, rectifying public order, rebuilding order, and preparing for Yu Chao to take over here.

If the attack took more than half a year, the manpower and material resources would be unimaginable.

At this time, if the people of the Yu Dynasty who had been charged with heavy gifts were provoked by others, and the place was in chaos, His Majesty the Emperor would be devastated.

Su Yi doesn't mind using the greatest malice to speculate on those who overcharged taxes. Apart from greed, who knows if those people have such thoughts?

As a feudal prince, they would actually have fornication with foreign countries. What else can they not do?

Back then, they couldn't compete with their own emperor father, so they put their ideas on him and his younger brother, and they knew how shameless these people were and how low their moral bottom line was.

Even in ancient times, it was a very contemptible matter for the two parties to compete to count each other's young children. If the two armies are hostile, they will return their families. He and those uncles are still in the same camp.

The steward should have been prepared for a long time, so even some secret matters in the DPRK have been handed in so that Su Yi has a more comprehensive understanding of the current situation in the DPRK.

In general, although there was a disturbance, because the emperor dealt with it properly, Mu Yan quickly ended the battle in Goguryeo without much cost, so everything was going in a good direction.

The results of Mu Yan's side were the decisive factor.

The princes and the aristocratic family looked at the battlefield of Goguryeo, and the emperor’s move was indeed a gambling. If Mu Yan loses or consumes too much, then the emperor's hard-to-gather monarchy will have to be dispersed and weakened.

Su Yi touched his head, he finally understood how this group of people would rather expose themselves, and they would continue to send killers to assassinate him.

Although he is a humble person, Mu Yan also felt that he might have played a significant role in the results Mu Yan had achieved. Although the effect was a fluke, it was inexplicably like a godsend, but it was really not so easy without oneself.

"But now that I have returned to the capital, let the assassinated people continue to hang around outside. It is best to be swept away." Su Yi said with a smile.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Although the situation in North Korea and China is very tense, the forces of several sides are in the final wrestling.

But this has nothing to do with Su Yi. Even the reason and process of this wrestling have something to do with him.

Su Yi finally returned to his wonderful days as an otaku in Beijing. Although most of the laboratories in Jingzhong were moved to Qingzhou, the prince asked the craftsmen to leave Su Yi in the vacant laboratory in Jingzhong and re-equipment.

The experimental equipment of Su Yi was made by craftsmen in the palace. Although they didn't understand the principle, it was easy to copy one. So when Su Yi returned, his laboratory was not much different from when he left.

So Su Yi thought about eating and drinking every day, and then tossing about some experiments, not knowing what to do. Although Qiuhuo was fierce, Su Yi had a pavilion and ice cubes that he could not use up. Don't mention how comfortable this small day is.

Compared with Su Yi's comfort, the ministers of any faction in the DPRK have been a little anxious recently. Those in a superior position want to expand their advantages and even get it done once and for all; those in a disadvantaged position do not say turning defeat into victory, but at any rate they can save themselves. This scene in the middle of the dynasty is simply the epitome of the entire officialdom of the Yu dynasty.

As a fuse and an important influencing factor, Master Su Tian kept his head empty day by day, as comfortable as a waste cat. If these people knew about it, he would be even more angry.

His Majesty the emperor was very angry. If it weren't for him to follow Su Tianshi's "disappearance" to arrange some things, not to leave the palace to let people find that Su Yi has returned, His Majesty will catch Su Yi violently and beat him to alleviate the imbalance in his heart.

Well, violent beating is impossible, His Majesty is reluctant, but it is okay to knock him a few times and kick him.

Su Yi cocked his feet to watch the play every day, and finally let him see "himself" coming out.

An emergency report was sent from the front line, Su Tianshi was suddenly seriously ill on the way back to Beijing, and he was not awake. At this time, he was assassinated by an assassin.

His Majesty was furious, and His Royal Highness personally led his troops out of Beijing to search for it. Mu Yan handed over the follow-up of Goguryeo to the lieutenant and returned to Beijing early.

The people all over the world knelt and cried, begging the heavenly master for well-being.

The people who eat melons sit in their homes, listening to the prayers and crying of the people who can't even block the walls, feeling great pressure.

"Can't you persuade them to leave?" Su Yi listened to the voice outside the door, feeling cold and cold.

Although he was so respected and loved by the people, he was assassinated after being seriously ill. After the news of his whereabouts was spread by the interested people, the people spontaneously came to the wall of his house in Beijing to light incense and pray. Let him smoke around the house in Beijing, like a temple with the most incense.

When Su Yi first became famous, the people in Beijing once came to his door and bowed before him, but Mu Yan was persuaded to leave. It's just that the news of Su Yi's attack came out, and the people responded too much. Even the emperor didn't dare to make an order easily and let the people endure it.

What's more, if Su Yi's whereabouts are truly unknown, it would be unreasonable for the emperor to issue this imperial decree.

So the emperor was quite gloating, letting Su Yi bear it, and the smell of incense was very good.

Su Yi couldn't help but put up his **** secretly, even if it was his father, he wanted to hit someone.

Su Yi wanted to hide in Mu Yan's house next door, but his house was built by the prince's iron bucket, but Mu Yan's house was left because the owner had left, but that was not the case.

After Su Yi and Mu Yan both left Beijing, the connecting doors on both sides were closed again, and they did not communicate with each other. The news of Su Yi's return, the next door did not know.

Su Yi looked at the misty smoke above the house every day, feeling gloomy.

Actually the smoke is pretty good, but the smell is really choking. The faint scent of sandalwood is fine, but the quality of the incense burned by ordinary people is of course not as good as that of modern times.

Although his house is still big, the surrounding walls are surrounded by the people of the city and burn incense continuously, and they can only be shrouded in smoke.

Fortunately, Su Yi lives in a pavilion with a water curtain, which smells better.

It's just that he was still alive, and he cried and burned incense every day as if he were dead. Su Yi felt a little bitter in his heart.

It is heard that the living person’s fortune will be compromised when he is worshipped as the dead. The people crying every day during this whole process, his fortune has fallen to a negative number, right? I always feel that I will fall on the ground when I walk.

When Su Yi was troubled, other people in Beijing were naturally more troubled than him.

Compared with those who want Su Yi to die, there are more ministers who admire Su Yi and hope that Su Yi can live without disease and disaster. They all knew what Su Yi brought to Yu Chao. This time Su Yi intervened in Goguryeo. They had long expected that Su Yi would have a disaster. Mu Yan and His Majesty the emperor should have anticipated this, and will let Su Yi return to Beijing immediately when the battle is stable.

Unexpectedly, the room leaked in the night rain, Su Yi was seriously ill and fell into a coma on the way, and was assassinated again. Looking at it this way, it seemed as if God had arranged for Su Yi's calamity. Hearing the return from those who escaped, they would not have been so embarrassed, but they were on the road when Su Tianshi, who had been good-natured, suddenly fell into a coma, causing the **** team to fall into chaos. The ambushing person was waiting in the mountains and forests, and when the team suddenly stopped, when they fell into chaos, they shot out from the hideout.

If Su Yi is still awake, even if he is ambushed by someone, Su Yi will dodge and can escape on horseback under the protection of others; if Su Yi is in a coma while passing through the town, the **** will have enough time to arrange everything.

If it were just like this, the people who escorted Su Yi were all elite, and they were armed with more sophisticated weapons than the interceptors. Su Yi’s carriage was also modified, and the battle was already leaning toward Su Yi's side. Even with heavy casualties, those people could not get close to Su Yi's carriage. Even if there was only one person left, they could leave with Su Yi and go to nearby towns to show their identity and ask for help.

As long as Su Yi and his party identify themselves, no matter which faction they belong to, the magistrate must guard Su Yi's safety tremblingly.

But when the battle took place, it was raining for a few days, and the rolling torrent of the mountain was rushing down the road, engulfing everything in an instant.

Afterwards, when people finally came back to this place, they found the corpses of the fighting between the two sides and the destroyed carriage that had been unrecognizable, but no other bodies were seen in the carriage.

Master Su Tian will never see people or dead bodies.

These are all put together, it is unbelievable to say that it is a coincidence.

Just because it is unbelievable, it makes people more believe.

Su Tianshi personally went into battle, damaging Goguryeo's fortune, and heaven must not tolerate it. This calamity must be a life of nine deaths. The so-called serious illness, the so-called interception, is nothing more than God's use of the hands of the common people to bring disasters.

The so-called punishment from heaven is also a robbery by man.

"Master Su once said that in the event of a catastrophe, the heavens will kill intent, the ground will kill intent, and the human will kill intent." Sima Hu said in a deep voice, "the heavens will kill intent, the serious illness will fall into a coma; the ground will kill intent, the landslides will flow out; Robbery in the vault."

Wang Boyuan said: "The celestial master is not a reckless person, and Goguryeo cannot commit the celestial master to take risks.

Everyone was silent. This is where they are puzzled. Based on Su Yi's usual behavior, he has a clear understanding of the punishment mechanism of the Way of Heaven, and seems confident in how to avoid disasters. In fact, Su Yi suffered a lot of calamities, but every time it turned out to be good. Therefore, it was difficult for everyone to believe that Su Yi had not anticipated this catastrophe.

What's more, the affairs of Goguryeo, in their opinion, are really not important, and Su Yi does not need to take such a big risk. Not to mention that Mu Yan's army circumvented the sea to seize the opportunity, and the Liaodong army also sneaked back to attack Mu Yan, and Yu Chao's victory was already even greater. Even if Mu Yan fails and Goguryeo can't attack, Yu Chao will not hurt.

If Su Yi acts on weekdays, if it is not for Huaxia's life and death, he should not risk his life.

"What happened on that day was only speculated. We don't know what happened on that day, whether the heavenly master was in danger or not, but it is just speculation." Xie Chundao, "Besides, the heavenly master can see things that the world can't see. Goguryeo fought. If I wait for a serious failure, Yu Chao will not hurt my muscles and bones. Who knows what kind of sight will I see in the eyes of the celestial master?"

Everyone sighed together.

After the news that Su Yi didn't know his life or death spread, the families who had friendship with Su Yi joined forces to inquire about the news. Sima Hu has left the Sima family, and Xie Chun is not a family. There are not many sources of information for the two. Simahu and Su Yi had a close friendship, and Xie Chun and Su Yi also had some friendships, and thought that they only had today because of Su Yi. The two were very anxious, so they gathered in the Wang's family and asked Su Yi about the current news.

Among the aristocratic families in Beijing, apart from Mu Yan, it is the Wang family who has the deepest friendship with Su Yi, their own power is strong, and the sources of information are wide. Moreover, Simahu and Xie Chun are close friends with the Wang family, and it is not a surprise to come to visit.

Sima Hu looked at Wang Boyuan with frowning and sighed.

He and Wang Boyuan are both Mu Yan's friends, and they are very close to each other. Wang Boyuan is now a different person than before, and his whole person is like a sword out of the sheath. He is extremely evil, and there is a gloomy air between his eyebrows and eyes that have not been romantic.

Wang Boyuan and Wang Di were once the most prodigal people of the two generations of the Wang family. Now they both seem to have embarked on an unexpected extreme. Wang Fen commented that he hid a knife in his smile like a fox, and Wang Boyuan was cold and deep like a poisonous snake. Simahu is not familiar with Wang Zi, so it is not easy to comment on it. Wang Boyuan became so uncomfortable for Sima Hu.

Sima Hu vaguely heard some rumors about what happened to Wang Boyuan. After Wang Boyuan got rid of his drug addiction physically, he went to the frontier to join the army. After half a year, he had become like this. No one knew what Wang Boyuan had experienced. All he knew was that after he returned to Beijing, he volunteered for the emperor to take a secret errand, followed by Wang Zi, and handled some unannounced things for the emperor.

The bright, promising family son voluntarily "fallen", some sighed and some laughed, Wang Futao once got drunk for his younger brother's choice, and cried and cried in his arms, saying that he was not qualified as an elder brother. I didn't take good care of my brother.

Seeing Wang Boyuan again today, seeing his murderous look, Simahu's heart again felt pain like a needle stick.

But this is not the time when he once sighed for his friends. They gathered here for the sake of friendship.

The rest are fine, their friends know that Su Yi is capable, and they don't believe that he will put himself into desperation.

But if you want to say that this is false, the behavior of the prince and Mu Yan and the attitude of the emperor are not like false. Besides, Wang's family also found out that there were indeed mudslides that washed down the roads, and then found dead bodies and horse-drawn carriages.

Their understanding of this matter can only be based on the situation at the scene, and where they were fighting, they fell into the water and were rushed to the lower reaches of the river.

Su Yi suddenly fell into a coma, the **** team was in chaos, and the interceptor suddenly broke out, which was learned from him. It was just that he fell into the water at the beginning of the battle and was washed away by the water, and was rescued by a caravan passing by the river, and he didn't know what was going on.

"You don't have to guess the cause. If the heavenly master can return, the heavenly master will naturally wait for me to solve the puzzles. If the heavenly master can't come back, thinking about it is useless." Wang Boyuan closed his eyes and opened them for a long while, condensing his face to kill. "Kangle will not be a cocoon, there must be a second hand, and there is no one in the carriage as evidence."

"Perhaps... the celestial master is really fine." Sima Hu suddenly remembered something.
