Guangzhou is the imperial capital of the Southern Han Dynasty.

During the late Qin and early Han dynasties and the late Tang dynasty, there were separate small states in Guangzhou.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Kingdom of Nanyue emerged. Zhao Tuo, the Great Qin Nanhai Lieutenant, established himself as the King of Nanyue and established Guangzhou as the capital of Nanyue.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Yan settled in Guangzhou and proclaimed himself emperor, and the country was named Southern Han. He also made Guangzhou his capital, and at that time it was called Prince Xing's Mansion.

Guangzhou is also known as Yangcheng and Suicheng. Legend has it that there was a severe drought in Guangzhou one year, and the people had no harvest. Then five immortals, riding five-color sheep with ears of grain in their mouths, came to Guangzhou and gave the ears of grain to the people. From then on, this place "eternally"

No famine".

Guangzhou has a developed economy and is the largest city in Southern Han Dynasty.

Today is the annual Polo Festival, and people all over the city are celebrating!

Although the clouds of war have enveloped the entire Guangzhou, many people have been waiting for this day for a year. Even if the Song army comes to the city tomorrow, they still have to celebrate the festival today! Water celebrations, four-township scenes, costume parades, dragon

The lion meeting, colorful performances, juggling, and dragon boat festivals only happen once a year. According to Wu Laoer, the deposit has been collected. How can the lion be used if it doesn't let people dance?

Wu Laoer is considered one of the top ten masters of lion dance in Guangzhou!

Today he will compete with the dragon dancing Li Laoqi!

The dragon and the lion have been fighting for supremacy for many years, with each winning or losing!

The annual one-thousand-tael bonus offered by Kong Dashan is still available this year and has not been canceled due to the tense war, so they are not the only ones in the city who are eyeing the bonus!

Those masters of dragon and lion dance who have served as foils for many years are going to trample Wu Laoer and Li Laoqi under their feet this year!

The city was bustling with people, but inside the Imperial Palace of the Southern Han Dynasty it was completely silent!

Zhu Wu was currently sitting on the high dragon chair in the Jinluan Palace, in a daze!

The steps were crowded with civil and military officials, all of whom dared not take a breath for fear of offending Long Yan!

Zhu Wu was facing hundreds of officials, but saw no one in his eyes. It was as if he were alone in the desert, surrounded by shadows, feeling only a sense of desolation and loneliness!

At this time, the civil and military officials were also full of thoughts and worries about their future and fate! Now the Song army attacked in three groups, destroying everything along the way, and it was overwhelming. It was certain that the troops would reach the city, but it would only happen sooner or later!

The people are panicked and the army is demoralized. This is the reality! You can imagine the emperor's mood! Who would put their head at this time and let the emperor vent his anger?

Zhu Wu's eyes were a little empty at this time. He was reflecting, how could this situation have happened?

After thinking about it, Zhu Wu felt that there was only one reason that most likely affected the victory, and that was that these guys who were inferior to pigs and dogs were holding him back!

How majestic was he when he was the eight-character leader of the Lingnan rivers and lakes? It can be said that he kept his word and followed the law!

What now? It actually has the meaning of being a bereaved dog and being in panic all day long. It’s really fucked!

His gaze suddenly became as sharp as a blade, and wherever he glanced, the officials trembled!

Zhu Wudao: "Where is my brother-in-law?"

The python-robed eunuch who followed Zhu Wu back and said, "I am playing with the Persian woman in the palace!"

Zhu Wudao: "Please come back!"

The python-robed eunuch said: "Yes!" He turned his head and winked at the two Forbidden Forest soldiers outside the palace, "Go and invite King Wei!" King Wei was Liu Yu's title before he ascended the throne, and the current throne has been given to Zhu Wu.

, naturally he was beaten back to his original form, and could only be called the King of Wei!

The ministers didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhu Wu Gourd, so they couldn't help but feel uneasy!

Who doesn’t know that Zhu Wu started his career in the underworld? He has countless lives on his hands! He was once the co-owner of the rivers and lakes in Lingnan, and now he dominates the heights, sitting on thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in the Southern Han Dynasty, grabbing life and death, holding great power, and is in the limelight

, who competes with it?

To these old ministers of the Southern Han Dynasty, Zhu Wu showed kindness and power at the same time! He moved them with emotion, explained them with reason, promised them benefits, and showed them with power!

In fact, these courtiers have been purged by Liu Yu several times. Except for a few founding ancestors who Liu Yu really dare not easily wash away, most of the others have put on new faces that are loyal to him. These old officials

Zu was not young yet, and was sick all over his body. He basically did not interfere with government affairs and stayed at home to recuperate, which was exactly what Liu Yuan wanted! Not only was he not angry, but he kept giving rewards to his senior ministers to show his enlightenment!

Under the perverted rule of Liu Yuan, all civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty basically became eunuchs! Except for women!

No one knows what these "castrated men" and women will do besides flattery!

"When you gain, you sing loudly and when you lose, you rest. When you are sad and resentful, it is long. There is wine today, and you are drunk now, and you will be worried tomorrow."

So what if you don't flatter yourself?

Many people come to the morning meeting, and at noon, the family may receive the news that the head of the family has been moved!

Which civil servants and generals would still devote all their energy and blood to the future of the Southern Han Empire? Whoever does this is a fool!

If you go to the emperor to complain loudly when your loyal minister was beheaded? That is asking for death!

Going to the emperor to speak out loudly because of the disaster suffered by the people? It is also seeking death!

Liu Yun has a low self-esteem since childhood, so he is a bit perverted when he has the power. He feels that only killing can make others fear him! In order to hide his fear!

For the ministers of the Southern Han Dynasty, since they are facing death, it is better to live happily for a few more days now!

How to be happy? Of course it is to eat, drink and have fun! But now that you have become a eunuch, you cannot have normal happiness with a woman, so you have to find other ways! If you lose the excitement in other ways, then find a man!

These ministers have high official positions, but they are actually eunuchs! Under the tyrannical rule of the Liu Dynasty, their psychology has become darker and darker! Their methods of having fun are absolutely shocking and perverted! Of course, the men and women who have been abused by them

Their fate is all miserable!

Later, Zhu Wu suddenly announced Liu Su's "Abdication Edict" in the morning court one day. At that moment, Liu Su's expression was so rich that everyone will never forget it! There was both fear and unwillingness! Of course, the expressions of all civil servants and generals were Liu Su's.

I can’t forget it either! Some people gloat over misfortune, some people pretend to be sorry, and some people are surprised!

Once the throne is changed, everything changes. Some people will be happy and some will be sad!

Zhu Wu has been involved in the underworld since he was a child, so he naturally has a deep understanding of people's hearts!

He didn't change the name of the country, he didn't kill Liu Yuan, he didn't replace officials wantonly, basically everything was business as usual! He didn't engage in the old routine of "one emperor and one courtier"!

The most he did was to ask the Minister of Dali Temple to read the "Laws of the Han Dynasty" again! He said that everyone should strictly abide by it in the future! Those who did not abide by it would be cut into pieces and thrown into his Ten Thousand Beasts Garden! There were tigers there,

There are lions and crocodiles!

All the court officials were stunned! Who dared not believe what Zhu Wu said?

Zhu Wu emphasized that from that day on, everyone's previous loose and loose style of doing things must move closer to the four words of "violating and resolute"!

Zhu Wu's wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!

These bureaucrats are people who are accustomed to fine clothes and fine food. They are different from those gangster heroes who lick blood with their swords. They pay attention to various "drag-zi tactics", "wait-zi tactics" and "look-zi tactics" when doing things!

And these behaviors are just the opposite of martial arts duels! Masters compete for a moment! If a move is slow, your life will be lost! But these officials seem to have been taught by a master, remembering that everything must wait.

Take a look, take a look, the old rule, if something can't be done in three or five days, it's like smoke rising from the ancestral grave!

Zhu Wu knew that although these old fritters were incapable of doing things, they had been immersed in the bureaucracy of the Southern Han Dynasty for many years. They were entangled and infiltrated with each other, competing and cooperating.

The big network. Everyone occupies a special position in the center of this specific network and plays a unique role. Even if it is a harmonious role, after decades of working together, they have enough experience to almost

It is indispensable. If we rashly replace these old guys with a group of new faces, it is very likely that these new faces, you even have to remove the word "possible", will be squeezed out by the old guys and fall from the net!

The old guy who messed with people is a human being!

If he could completely replace the entire network and completely break the entire dynasty's ruling system by scraping bones to cure poison and having the courage of a strong man to cut off his wrist, Zhu Wu himself would not have the courage! If he really did that, the world would be in chaos!

Because he doesn’t have that many veterans who know what officialdom is all about!

Stabilizing the country and conquering the country are two different concepts! To conquer the country, you only need to know how to fight and kill, and kill and cripple the enemy's forces. To defend the country is to protect the people's hearts! Only knowing that hard fists will not do! In addition to hard fists,

You also need to be smart! And the people here in Lingnan are the most clan-minded. As long as the clan leader comes forward, it will be easier than holding a knife to your neck!

Precisely because although some people are incompetent, their status is special and their influence is still great, so they have been enduring it!

If you can make do with it, make do with it!

Some people Zhu Wu will give in to others, but he has to give in to others. People cannot say that he, the "emperor", does things unfairly! The name "Bazi Longtou" has been a golden sign of "fairness and justice" for many years. Zhu Wu

Now I can't bear to throw it away! After dealing with the nobles, I have no choice but to deal with some cunning old people!

Almost most of these old people in front of me have been "castrated". Although they are not officially eunuchs, they are actually eunuchs!

The body is like a eunuch, and the mind is even more like a eunuch! Dead eunuch!

Hezhou City's 70,000 infantrymen actually stood still and didn't know how to respond. They watched the skeletons, rattan armor, and war elephants, and the whole army was annihilated!

At that time, Zhu Wu thought that the commanders were waiting for the last opportunity to deliver a thunderous blow to the Song army. He also praised them for knowing how to conserve their strength and knowing how to let the skeleton soldiers fight in the front line!

Damn it, now it seems that they are simply cowards who retreated from the battle and were afraid to move forward!

There is no trace of manliness at all!

He glanced at the python-robed eunuch beside him! This damn eunuch actually followed him and fled back to Guangzhou. He finally mobilized before leaving to delay some time, otherwise today would be his death day!

The eunuch in the python robe suddenly saw Zhu Wu's eyes suddenly become sharp and glanced at him. He suddenly felt as cold as falling into an ice cellar!

Fortunately, Zhu Wu's eyes were on someone else again, so he breathed a sigh of relief!

Zhu Wu looked at a few delicate figures among the ministers and said to one of them: "Lu Qiongxian, tell me!"

Lu Qiongxian suddenly trembled and said in a trembling voice: "I wonder what the Lord asked this servant to say?" She was dressed in official uniform, and her appearance was no different from that of a civil servant, except that her official hat was a special phoenix-winged crown!

Zhu Wu looked at this "powerful minister" who rose to power with his beauty, and felt both contempt and sympathy in his heart!

He despises her, naturally because he despises her for her dissolute behavior, betrayal of her lust, and her way of squeezing her way into this place known as the center of power in the Southern Han Dynasty!
