Li Xiao walked out of Cui Chengxiu's mansion and looked at the setting sun and the blue sky and white clouds.

The innocent blue without haze, but the haze in Li Xiao's heart made him unable to breathe.

Cui Chengxiu's words made Wei Zhongxian transform into a different person in Li Xiao's eyes. Even in the most crooked historical novels, no one thought that Wei Zhongxian was such a person. He was powerful, lonely, and cold.

An illiterate and political novice gangster, because of what he thought was a clever method, offended everyone except the emperor. His political opponents, his political allies, and even his closest subordinates. This time they all stood against him.

, I don’t know how many rounds of consultations were held under the table. The purpose is to protect the inherent interests of the official and gentry class!

In order to protect their own private interests, and to protect the rights of officials and gentry not to pay taxes or grain, all the civil servants stood together in unprecedented unity, forming an irresistible force in the Ming Dynasty. Even the emperor could not resist this force.

.

Today he finally saw Cui Chengxiu's face clearly. The word "selfish" was deeply engraved on his face, which was full of truth.

Wei Zhongxian proposed that officials and gentry should be paid together, not because he was noble, but because his knowledge limited his imagination. He did not expect how many officials' interests would be involved in this matter. Even a great person like Zhang Juzheng would not dare to do it.

Wei Zhongxian, a simple-minded man, did it and was on the road to death. He naively thought that as long as he took care of the emperor, he could solve everything. As long as he had the support of the emperor, he could control everything in the world.

But he forgot that the emperor was also afraid of public anger.

The king cannot be trusted! This wise saying has been an unbreakable truth from ancient times to the present.

Historically, it was only known that the emperor who was a carpenter was actually an unimaginable master of thick black arts. It was the most beneficial thing for him to have officials and gentry all pay for themselves. However, the emperor did not say anything on this issue, relying entirely on a eunuch to charge him.

At the front. He only provides a certain level of support for this eunuch. As long as he sees that the limelight is not right, Eunuch Wei is someone who can be abandoned at any time. Those censors will attack like wasps until Eunuch Wei takes his last breath.

.

Li Xiao felt a little sympathetic to Wei Zhongxian. This man was just an old slave who was used as a spearman and a shield by the emperor. In the end, he was ready to become an abandoned son and vent his anger on the civil servants!

This is the historical truth behind the famous Nine Thousand Years Old!

In this game, everyone is playing tricks, trying hard to kill others and survive. Everyone is thinking about maximizing their own interests, but no one has ever really thought about the compatriots who have fallen under the iron heel of the alien race.

.Those people of the Ming Dynasty who were assigned as slaves to armored men!

How many of them have been ranked as Jinshi, how many of them are well-educated scholars. Just because of their own selfish interests, they ignore millions of people. They are like leeches, lying on the huge body of the empire and sucking non-stop. They will not change until the sunset of this empire.

Boss. And under the leadership of the new boss, he continued to lie on the imperial body and suck.

From Wei Zhongxian to Yongzheng, although there is a difference of 180 years, what they want to do is unprecedentedly consistent. To extract money from the landlords and subsidize the expenses of the entire empire.

But Wei Zhongxian was not an emperor after all. Yongzheng could survive and leave his name behind after death. Wei Zhongxian could only survive and be infamous for thousands of years!

The sun quietly approached the horizon, and its fiery red light began to dominate the sky, reflecting Li Xiao's back fiery red.

Many years later, Li Xiao still remembered this spring evening. It was on this day that he truly understood the biggest driving force behind the Ming Dynasty's political situation.

"Just eat, why are you so dazed?" Ao Canghai saw Li Xiao holding a bowl and chewing chopsticks in his mouth. He was worried that Li Xiao would eat the whole chopstick.

"I discovered that not everyone loves their own country. They live for themselves, many of them."

"What kind of hysteria? Who the hell is not living for themselves? The world is big and the mother has the biggest food. Hurry up and eat, the old madam of Xiaoxiang Pavilion has been waiting for a long time."

"Hey! You, the eldest brother, haven't done much yet, but I've grown up before you." Mao Wenlong's weird smile of "hey", "hey" and "hey" looked as wretched as it seemed. No one could

It's hard to tell that this old man in black shirt is a first-class military attache of the imperial court.

"You brat, this kind of thing is actually a positive thing." Li Xiao cursed with a smile and continued to eat. He is just an old madam, so there is no need to give face to such a person.

Although I deliberately procrastinate, I still have to finish my meal. If I chew it slowly, I'm just grinding my teeth.

No matter how reluctant he was to deal with these people, Li Xiao still came to the front hall.

Sitting next to the old bustard was Xie Youcai, a big teapot. When he saw Li Xiao coming in, he immediately stood up and began to nod and bow out of habit.

"What are you doing here?" Li Xiao asked with a cold face. Li Xiao hated creatures like the old bustard deeply.

"When we go back to Junye, many people saw our girl Yanyun from Xiaoxiang Pavilion here. We...we are going to take her back." The old madam was very nervous when talking to Li Xiao. After finishing the sentence, he raised his forehead

It's already a bit trendy.

Li Xiao's deeds in Shuntian Mansion have been widely circulated. People always process what they heard and then spread it according to their own imagination. According to the most common routine, the rumors were quickly spread, and even Li Xiao

There are some rumors that the late emperor had an illegitimate son.

The old madam felt a lot of pressure talking to such a person. If Yanyun's escape would not cause heavy financial losses to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, she would not want to face this famous person even if she were killed.

"Who saw it? Why didn't I see it? Although this is a post house, it can also be regarded as a military. Women are not allowed in the military, don't you know? Find out what you saw, and I will ask you in person." Li Xiao

Sitting on the chair, the scoundrel's face is exposed.

My money is used to raise soldiers and buy equipment. What's going on with you, a human-trafficking madam?

"Uh...!" The old madam's face twitched, but she didn't dare to argue with Li Xiao. Who dares to stand up and testify for her, he will die? The gate of Shuntian Mansion was blown up, and more than a dozen people died in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.

Personally, this man stood in front of me without any problems. I heard that he was taken into the palace by the royal guards that night.

"Master, it's meaningless for you to say that. If no one saw it, we wouldn't dare to blackmail you even if we have the courage. You even blew up the archway of Shuntian Mansion, why would you care about us low-lifes? But the girl is

Our mother has raised us since childhood, so we have this kind of childlike affection.

If you say you are interested in my girl Yanyun, you can buy her out and make her a slave or a concubine as you please. You know, this is what the villains are for. No. 100 is the mouth of Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

, you are breaking our relationship by doing this.

It’s not easy for little people, they just want to make a living. Just raise your hand and wait for a way for the little people to survive, okay?”

The old madam did not dare to speak anymore, and Xie Youcai, who was watching from the side, had no choice but to stand up.

Today they are making their biggest attempt to recover huge financial losses for Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Yanyun is the second red card of Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It is not for sale in the first place, and the amount of money she needs to redeem her is not a small amount.

I originally wanted to ask someone to go to Shuntian Mansion and ask the people from Shuntian Mansion to get the person out. But when the people from Shuntian Mansion heard that they were going to the post house to get someone, they kicked the person who asked me out. Who is okay in that place of the King of Hell?

It's not easy to find him there. Nowadays, the police officers of Shuntian Prefecture avoid anyone wearing yellow and green military uniforms on the street.

"Who are you? If you are talking to me like this, do you know that I am also a seventh-grade military attache of the imperial court?"

"Xie Youcai, a villain, stood up just to say something reasonable.

You said that you are an official, and you have to be reasonable when eating official food. You can look down on us, but this is what we eat. If you look down on us, you will continue to do it. But if you cut off our food, that is murder.

life."

"Hey! You're still doing the same thing. Your Xiaoxiang Pavilion is missing a girl, so your career is over?"

"Miss Yanrong is the red card of our Xiaoxiang Pavilion. How many people are pointing at her to eat. Raise your hand!"

"What if I don't?"

"Okay! Even if you try to rob a common girl, I can't win if I go to Shuntian Mansion. I can't beat you again and again, and I've lost all my food. Why don't I take my people to beg for food in a busy section of the capital tomorrow?"

When someone asked, they said that it was the military lords from Liaodong who had cut off the villain's livelihood. They had no choice but to come out to beg for food." Xie Youcai stood in front of Li Xiao, and he was neither humble nor overbearing, implying a threat.

Li Xiao looked Xie Youcai up and down. He didn't expect that there was such a person in the brothel. He really has talents in his profession!

Li Xiao really didn't dare to let him go to the street to promote and rob a prostitute. When word spread, Li Xiao himself felt embarrassed, but Li Xiao was really unwilling to give money to the old madam. This was tantamount to encouraging human trafficking.

"Fuck you grandma! You are a big teapot here and there, be careful I break your legs." Ao Canghai just walked in and opened his mouth to curse after hearing Xie Youcai's words.

Not to mention that now that you are an official and the market is booming, even back then in Liaoyang, these big teapots were not as sharp as Master Ao. How dare you talk to Master Ao?

"After breaking his leg, the villain will crawl on the street begging for food. After beating the villain to death, he will go to the King of Hell to eat and drink smoke. Military Lord, you can send the villain wherever you want. More than a hundred

Jin, the villain is left here." Seeing the ferocious-looking Master Ao, Xie Youcai also had a look of dissatisfaction.

"Hey! This kid is still a green man." Master Ao also looked at Xie Youcai up and down, feeling that this guy is a bit tough. Only hard-boned people will respect you. Now Master Ao is a little impressed by this big teapot.

.

"That's it! Then...!" Li Xiao pondered and looked at Xie Youcai. Everyone looked at Li Xiao. They didn't know how Li Xiao was going to deal with this matter.

"Then break the legs!" Li Xiao said softly. Immediately, a guard rushed in from outside the door and reached out to grab Xie Youcai.

"Brother Xiao, you've gone too far. After all, he is just making a living, there is no need to compromise other people's legs." Mr. Ao despises tough men, and now his attitude has completely changed and he has started to help Xie Youcai.

.

"We want to see how long he can last." Li Xiao said something incomprehensible, leaving Master Ao a little confused.

Seeing that the guards were about to rush over, Xie Youcai immediately ran up the window like a monkey.

"This military lord, I just want to find a career under you."

"I'll wipe it!" Ao Canghai's eyes widened when he saw Xie Youcai's skills.

"Ha! My men don't raise idle people." Li Xiao looked at Xie Youcai with disdain.

"Is this villain going to give you a secret in exchange? Big secret." The guards outside arrived and blocked Xie Youcai against the window. This guy actually grabbed the window lattice and flipped up onto the beam. That move was so smooth

, those who didn’t know thought he was just a monkey.

"I'll wipe it!" Mr. Ao, who has seen the world, this is the first time he has seen a guy with such dexterity. None of the jugglers on the flyover have such dexterity.

"What secret?" Ao Canghai shouted in a rough voice.

"My Lord! You said it was a secret, so many people know it, is it still a secret?" Xie Youcai's face turned into a bitter look, because he had already seen someone going to get a firecracker. Even if it was really a monkey, he would encounter a firecracker.

This kind of thing that defies heaven must be shot down like a bird.

"It's a while, come down." Li Xiao waved his hand, and the soldiers all withdrew.

"How did you know that this kid is not authentic?" Ao Canghai saw Xie Youcai jump down from the beam and fall to the ground, barely hearing a sound. A living person weighing more than 100 kilograms,
