Chapter 4 Supervising the Country
Li Chen's heart sank. He knew that the emperor had tested him.
The performance of the predecessor was really not very good, so the Emperor Daxing still did not dare to completely hand over the burden of the country to his shoulders at the last moment.
At this moment, his performance can be said to ultimately determine his destiny.
"The difficulties in the government are external troubles, and even internal troubles."
Li Chen combined the memories of his predecessors and combined with the background of the historical knowledge dynasties that had been seen before traveling through time, saying: "External troubles are the Hu people, the dog velvet, the Jurchens, the Huns, and the previous Yuan Meng legacy who fled to the prairie
, I want to destroy our Great Qin and then go quickly."
"The internal troubles are due to the separatist rule of the vassal kings. All the royal relatives who were granted kings and marquis enjoyed taxes and military and political power in the place where the feudals were divided were simply out of law. The clans held their own troops and respected themselves, which was a major concern."
"In addition, corrupt officials are rampant in local areas, court ministers form cliques for personal gain, and ignore the safety of the country and the country in order to fight for power and profit. They are so eager to do so, and they should really kill them."
"It is also due to the continuous natural disasters, with severe droughts and barren land in the north, floods and floods in the south, people change their children to eat, countless victims are forced to become bandits, cults everywhere, rebels emerge one after another, local rich gentry fish in the countryside, secretly with rebels, cults, cults
Collusion and desire to conquer the country, so that the family cannot become a family and the country cannot become a country."
Every word from Li Chen is like a handful of bright knives that penetrate into people's hearts.
In front of the dragon couch, there were only Emperor Daxing and the Sanbao eunuch, who was the Dongchang factory man. The Sanbao eunuch's face was extremely wonderful. Anyone said this was a rebellious statement, and he wanted to be dragged out and beheaded immediately.
of.
But when Emperor Daxing heard this, a blush appeared on his pale face.
"Okay! Very good!"
The emperor, who was already angry, shouted.
He looked at Li Chen with great relief and said, "I just knew that I didn't choose the wrong person."
"Three treasures, promulgation."
The eunuch of Sanbao bowed and took out an imperial edict that seemed to have been drafted long ago. Facing the concubines and civil and military ministers in the harem, he whispered: "Publicate the imperial edict."
The people in the room all had different faces and their complex eyes were unstable, but they all knelt down in front of the imperial edict under the leadership of Zhao Xuanji and Queen Zhao Qinglan.
The eunuch of Sanbao shook the imperial edict and read loudly: "The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, the imperial edict said: I have been in charge of the throne for 19 years since I succeeded to the throne and established the year name. I have been deeply engaged in the government affairs, and I cannot sleep at night and dare not be tired every day. Now I am healthy and healthy.
No more, I feel that the country is busy, but my family business and the country cannot be without a master for a day. Fortunately, my second son, Chen, was named the crown prince in the fifteenth year of Daxing. His character is far away and his style is brilliant.
, both the internal and external affairs, the government and the government should take advantage of the cauldron and protect the weapons, and can make decisions for the country, the government and the government, the government and the government, the military affairs inside and outside the court, and the government should be held in the court and the emperor
The prince, I will come here in person, and I admire this."
With an imperial edict, the crown prince Li Chen was appointed to supervise the country, and the emperor of Daxing personally handed over the highest authority of the empire to the crown prince.
Li Chen was the first to bow to thank him, "My son received the order, thank you for your elders, long live, long live, long live."
Immediately afterwards, no matter whether they were willing or not, all the civil and military officials in the court, concubines and princes and relatives in the harem, knelt down to receive the order.
"I have received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
After Li Chen received the imperial edict, Emperor Daxing became increasingly weak.
He closed his eyes and murmured, "I am tired, you all go out, go out."
"My son follows the order."
After Li Chen gave his tribute, he withdrew from the Ganqing Palace with his ministers and concubines.
But the only one started shouting.
Chen Huaizhi cursed: "The emperor must have been ill and lost his mind. He actually let the prince supervise the country. How can the prince be so corrupt? The old minister wants to meet the emperor and state the key points. He must not destroy the country!"
None of the court officials spoke, and everyone looked at Li Chen, as if they wanted to see how he reacted.
Li Chen quietly looked at Chen Huaizhi jumping up and down, and strode to him.
Chen Huaizhi looked at Li Chen with a cold expression and was a little lacking in confidence, but then he was sure that Li Chen had no foundation in the court, and that he was the right-hand man of the chief assistant Zhao Xuanji. The prince of the supervisor must not dare to offend him. .
Thinking of this, Chen Huaizhi immediately became proud.
"The father has ordered the palace to supervise the country. The imperial edict is clearly written. The government affairs, regardless of military, government, and people's livelihood, are all appropriate. When I see this palace, it is like the father's visit. Do you know what this means?" Li Chen said.
Chen Huaizhi's eyelids twitched and gritted his teeth and said, "That's because the emperor was foolish and deceived by you for a while. When the old minister met the emperor, he made clear his interests. The emperor must depose your prince's behavior and even talk about the country's supervision..."
Before Chen Huaizhi could finish his words, Li Chen suddenly raised his hand and pulled out the knife from the waist of a Jinyiwei guard next to him.
He used all his life's greatest strength and fastest speed, and the blade rippled with murderous intent in the darkness. The cold edge of lightning flashed across Chen Huaizhi's neck, leaving a bright red bloodline.
Fast, too fast.
No one expected that Li Chen would kill someone himself, and even kill him so decisively and ruthlessly.
Chen Huaizhi widened his eyes, and when he realized it, blood from his throat was already gushing out.
Covering his neck, Chen Huaizhi stared at Li Chen with a slight crack.
He did not expect that as a Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, he was a member of the cabinet, assisting the emperor in governing the government affairs. Who dared to provoke or disrespect him? Even if the emperor wanted to kill him, he would have to find a confirmed charge. The ironclad evidence is as strong as the mountain and can only be convicted after being tried by the Three Secretary, but at this point, he was killed by Li Chen directly leaping through all procedures.
A handful of blood splattered onto the palace gate, onto Li Chen's face and clothes. Chen Huaizhi leaned back heavily to the bottom, and blood spread under his body, and he seemed to be unable to survive.
Li Chen dragged the knife in his hand, and the tip of the knife gently touched the ground. Blood slid down the blade, forming a thick pool of blood on the ground.
"This means that this palace is destiny. Killing you is like a rebellion."
The blood on his body and the sword made him look like a demon and god in the red prince's robe in this night.
His eyes leaped over the crowd and looked at Zhao Xuanji. Li Chen said slowly: "Shoufu Zhao, do you think this person should be killed?"
Zhao Xuanji looked at Li Chen, who was still covered in blood and blood on his young face, and said in a deep voice: "This person is guilty of his superiors, and he is not arrogant. He is even more questioning the emperor's imperial edict and collides with the prince. , should be punished."
Both members of the cabinet, Zhao Xuanji is the chief assistant, while Chen Huaizhi is the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion. He must be Zhao Xuanji's right-hand man, but on this seemingly cold and murderous night tonight, it only took only a quarter of an hour for the reign of the country. Li Chen killed him.
Faced with this sudden change, Zhao Xuanji chose to give in temporarily.
Li Chen smiled coldly and said, "It's great, this old man, I want to kill him."
After saying that, Li Chen's eyes swept across the ministers.
The other ministers were swept by Li Chen's eyes, and they felt their necks cold. It seemed that the prince of the governor was considering who would pick the next head.
"Old minister, take your leave."
Zhao Xuanji bowed and led his ministers away from the Ganqing Palace.
Zhao Qinglan looked at Li Chen with great complexity, and left with the other concubines and princes.
Outside the Ganqing Palace, it soon became deserted.
"Your Highness, please wipe the dirty blood from your body."
The eunuch of the Three Treasures came to Li Chen at some time, respectfully presented a handkerchief with both hands, and said.
Looking at the eunuch of Sanbao who was emitting a feminine atmosphere, Li Chen took the handkerchief and wiped the blood stains on his face that were already solidified, and said lightly: "I'll let the factory order someone to drag the old man's body out to feed the dog. .”
Not only do they have to kill people, but they even have to send the bodies to feed the dogs.
This prince is cruel enough!
The eunuch of the Three Treasures said respectfully: "Yes, I obey the order."
The blood-stained knife knocked on the floor tiles, making a crisp sound of impact. Li Chen said: "The government and the country are all over the country, and no one is waiting for the governor of the palace. How can the factory handle themselves?"
Chapter completed!
