Chapter 215 What are you talking about? 【Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!】
Chapter 215 What to say, you are cheating on me? [Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!]
Bactrian Palace.
Inside the main hall.
Everyone's eyes fell on Chang Yuntian.
The gazes of all the officials will only make Chang Yuntian more confident.
The silence of the main hall also made Chang Yuntian feel even more excited.
At the beginning, when Gu Jinnian asked for orders, I was afraid that the court was also so silent, right?
Chang Yuntian thought so in his heart.
Chang Yuntian was not at all afraid of the person being impeached, Gu Jinnian, for no other reason than he had his own reasons.
It's not empty talk, nor is it nonsense.
Although doing this will offend Gu Jinnian, so what? He, Gu Jinnian, is not the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
To put it bluntly, most people in the civil and military dynasties only care about Gu Jinnian's prestige and are afraid of Gu Jinnian's current power.
Aren't you really afraid of Gu Jinnian?
If he was really afraid of Gu Jinnian, He Yan wouldn't dare to do this, and he wouldn't have said those words yesterday.
And don’t the Gu family have any enemies?
Does the entire court obey Gu Jinnian?
The Ministry of Justice? The Ministry of War? The Ministry of Personnel? And the Ministry of Household Affairs? Do you really serve Gu Jinnian?
Of course, what Chang Yuntian knew was that none of these officials dared to make trouble because they were the target of public criticism, and he was different.
He is the censor of the Great Xia Dynasty. As a censor, he naturally has the responsibility of impeachment.
But the only thing that's a little embarrassing is...
I finished speaking, why didn't anyone answer?
Why don't you talk?
Lord He?
Everyone?
Chang Yuntian was a little silent.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Chang Yuntian simply spoke up again and said more harshly.
It's a fight in the court.
He had studied at Daodaofu before.
In all fights, one must strike first and then commit a major crime.
In this way, the two sides began to game.
Your people support you.
My people support me.
In the end, it all depends on what the emperor thinks. If there is such a thing and the evidence is conclusive, and the emperor wants to save one person, he will choose to be given a lighter sentence.
If you don't want to save this person, just follow the procedures.
The exile that deserves exile.
Catch what needs to be caught.
Those who should be killed should be killed.
Therefore, Chang Yuntian continued to speak.
"His Majesty."
"Nowadays, in this city that never sleeps in Daxia, everything seems to be prosperous, but in fact it is destroying the foundation of Daxia."
"First, the sale of official salt makes it difficult for the court to collect the salt tax. In the future, people in Daxia will gather in the city that never sleeps to buy. So how to deal with the official salt tax in Daxia?"
"Secondly, the city that never sleeps in the summer is noisy to attract favor. It is even said that a zoo of animals will be built to attract people to play. If the people go to play every day, what should be done with the fertile land? It will make people sink and play with animals."
"Thirdly, Yang Kai, the Minister of Rites, and Wang Qixin, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, just shared a little silver and showed off their wealth everywhere. Now that the disaster area of Daxia has not yet been decided, what will happen to the people if they see this?
What do you think?"
"I know that the person being impeached today is the Marquis of Great Xia Dynasty and the head of the Six Ministries. But as the censor, I have no choice but to impeach him."
"I implore your Majesty to order the closure of the Evernight City, take back the right to sell official salt, and severely punish the Minister of Etiquette and the Minister of Industry to serve as a warning to others."
"If we draft the law again, no officials will be allowed to be involved in business matters, and all the property earned should be confiscated and entered into the Daxia treasury. Daxia officials should be honest and upright."
"If any official is involved in business affairs, he will be dispatched to the border areas at the least, and the whole family will be executed at the worst. Otherwise, collusion between officials and businessmen will inevitably occur."
Chang Yuntian spoke again.
And it's more serious than what was said before.
They will also be sent to the border areas and all their families will be executed.
For a moment, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent again.
Their eyes looked even weirder.
Especially He Yan, if this damn guy wasn't in the court, he would have already stepped forward and sprayed her.
I worked so hard yesterday, and to say something unpleasant, I almost knelt down on the ground and begged Gu Jinnian, the destiny candidate, Gu Shengren.
I finally got a good deal, and I thought I could get tens of millions of taels of silver, or even 10 million taels of silver, every year in the future.
Are you fucking reporting here?
Are you still a human being?
Do you still have a conscience?
Is there something wrong with your brain?
Are you trying to make an enemy of the Manchu civil and military forces?
Not only He Yan, but also the civil and military officials in the entire dynasty now have the desire to kill this fool.
Is the city that never sleeps in Daxia getting in your way?
Who cares about the noise?
Why don't you tell me where's your mother?
Mu De, you know that this kind of person is not in a good mood, and he will be bored for a long time.
I'm your mother.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Chang Yuntian couldn't help it anymore.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Hubu is aware of this matter, and the Minister of Hubu is even more aware of the dangers of the city that never sleeps in Daxia."
"A few days ago, Mr. He mentioned something to me."
Chang Yuntian really had no choice.
If no one speaks, is this sick?
Although he knew that the person who was impeaching was Gu Jinnian, Gu Jinnian was not a god.
There's no need to be so afraid, right?
Why bother?
Although Gu Jinnian has high prestige, if he does something wrong, he has done something wrong. We are all united together, why are we afraid of this Gu Jinnian?
Mr. He, please come out and say something.
Chang Yuntian looked at He Yan.
The latter was stunned for a moment.
In an instant, pairs of eyes stared at He Yan, even Emperor Yongsheng couldn't help but cast a glance at him.
They looked at Chang Yuntian like a fool.
But He Yan is different.
He Yan was also involved in this matter. If He Yan was doing something behind his back again, everyone really wouldn't let He Yan go.
He Yan was really startled when he felt everyone's gaze.
These bastards are not good people, especially the military commanders. Now everyone is in a group, even the emperor is involved.
If he dares to say a bad word about the city that never sleeps in Daxia, he can guarantee that someone from the military will jump out immediately.
Report yourself for corruption and bribery.
What? No evidence?
Yang Kai took out a stack of banknotes from his arms directly in front of his face, and then put it into his hand.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately pointed at themselves and said.
Your Majesty, see for yourself, is this bribery?
What? Forced slander?
This is to give you He Yan some face. If not, just ask the guards to inform your family that you have a brain attack in the palace.
What?
Does your family say you have never had brain disease?
Then draw up a notice.
He Yan, the Minister of Household Affairs, contracted a serious illness and infected the whole family. It was really pitiful.
Later, another notice was issued. The court investigated He Yan's home and found tens of millions of taels of silver.
When the people saw it, they said, "I am your mother, and you are so greedy? You deserve the death of your entire family."
Three months later.
May I ask who He Yan is?
The script has been written, it just depends on how He Yan handles it now.
"His Majesty!"
"I never said anything like this."
"I don't know."
He Yan walked out with an innocent and confused look on his face, and then looked at Changyun Tiandao.
"Chang Yushi, you are young and have already become a great scholar. You can be considered a scholar after all, right?"
"Why do you falsely accuse someone of his innocence?"
"When did I say that?"
"If you can't produce any personal or material evidence today, don't blame me for suing you for slander."
He Yan opened his mouth and immediately sold Chang Yuntian.
It won’t work if I don’t sell it.
There is something wrong with this guy's brain. He is really stupid. Not to mention that everyone is now united.
Even if we are not in a group, if you betray me like this, I don't want to have anything to do with you.
Hearing He Yan speak.
Chang Yuntian's expression couldn't help but change.
Are you selling me?
Chang Yuntian looked at He Yan, he would never have thought that He Yan would actually pull this trick.
Yesterday, He Yan clearly asked himself to pay attention to these things, but didn't the subtext mean that he asked himself to be impeached and reported?
Now I am impeaching and reporting myself.
Are you playing this trick?
"Sir He, it was you who said yesterday about the matter in the city that never sleeps in Daxia, and asked me to pay more attention to it. Is this what your lord said?"
Since the other party did this, Chang Yuntian stopped being secretive.
As soon as he said this, He Yan's face looked a little unsightly, and the officials' eyes became sharper.
"yes."
"This is what I said, but what do I mean?"
"I want you to take a good look at the prosperity of Daxia's Evernight City, and learn how the destiny of Daxia made Daxia Kyoto prosperous."
"How do you understand this as asking you to impeach and report?"
"Chang Yuntian, you have misunderstood yourself, and you still want to frame me?"
"First, I have great admiration for the Marquis of Destiny."
"Secondly, I am also very interested in Daxia Night City. This is a silver order for Daxia Restaurant. I made it yesterday. I just want to go to Daxia Restaurant to have fun in my spare time."
"If I were really dissatisfied, would I still make a bank order? Besides, if I was really dissatisfied, why didn't I come forward and say it myself? Do I still need your help?"
"Although you are the censor, you are only the censor. I am the minister of household affairs, so I can't do such a thing."
"Everyone, is this the way you are judging me?"
He should speak with righteousness and righteousness.
Chang Yuntian was so scolded that he was completely speechless.
As a great scholar, he had studied for so many years and was extremely well-educated, but at this moment, he really wanted to scold his mother.
You fucking old cunt, you cheated on me, right?
I am a damn great scholar, one of the most outstanding heroes in Daodao Mansion. I am here to cooperate with you and help you. Are you trying this trick?
I can fuck your mother.
Chang Yuntian was really angry. When he wrote this memorial yesterday, he wrote it for a long time and thought deeply about every word.
And he thought about many scenarios, how Yang Kai would refute, how Wang Qixin would refute, what would be His Majesty's attitude, and what would be the attitude of the officials.
But after thinking about it over and over again, I have never thought that you, damn old cunt, would actually mess with me?
"His Majesty."
"Master He is completely concerned about the power of the destiny candidate, so he dare not admit it."
"I didn't lie about this matter."
"Your Majesty, please give me a clear warning."
Changyun's weather was not good, but he still did not say bad words. Instead, he looked at Emperor Yongsheng, hoping that the emperor would give him justice.
He knew that Emperor Yongsheng doted on Gu Jinnian, but so what? As long as he was an emperor, he could not act recklessly.
Wrong is wrong.
Right is right.
Unless this is a faint king, but it is obvious that Emperor Yongsheng is not a faint king. If he is a faint king, he will not be able to successfully rebel.
Hearing Chang Yuntian speak like this.
On the dragon chair,
Emperor Yongsheng was more direct. He stretched out his hand, looked at Chang Yuntian and spoke slowly.
"Bring the folding book."
"Let me take a look."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke out, and after saying this, Wei Xian immediately walked down, took the fold, and presented it to Emperor Yongsheng.
On the dragon throne, Emperor Yongsheng unfolded the memorial and watched it carefully.
At this moment, the officials were a little silent.
They didn't know what Emperor Yongsheng was thinking. After all, they didn't know that Emperor Yongsheng left the palace yesterday, although Gu Jinnian swore that Emperor Yongsheng would go.
But exactly how, they don't know.
Furthermore, this group of people actually has one fear, that is, what if the emperor really disagrees with everyone's participation in the affairs of the Everlasting City in Daxia?
So they were a little worried.
soon.
Emperor Yongsheng finished reading the memorial and then slowly spoke.
"Well written."
"Don't write it next time."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, and when the first half of the sentence came out, Chang Yuntian breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had made the right bet.
The faces of the officials changed.
But after hearing the second half of the sentence, Chang Yuntian's face turned a little ugly, and Baiguan breathed a sigh of relief.
Good guy.
In Jinnian, even Emperor Yongsheng was able to deal with it?
This is a great joy.
"Your Majesty, this."
Chang Yuntian didn't know what to say.
However, Emperor Yongsheng stood up from the dragon throne and looked down at Changyun Tiandao.
"As the censor, impeachment is your duty, but you cannot impeach without reason."
"Your memorial says that the city that never sleeps in Daxia will destroy the foundation of Daxia."
"I won't argue with you, I'll let the officials decide."
"My dear friends, what do you think of the city that never sleeps in Daxia?"
Emperor Yongsheng opened his mouth, how could he not know who Chang Yuntian was?
Yes, Chang Yuntian has great means, and the Emperor's Seal cannot sense that he is a traitor, but a person with unknown origins became the Yushi of Daxia through the recommendation of the King of Qin.
Although the position of censor may not seem to be of high rank, the position of censor has a great effect.
He didn't believe it at all if there was nothing wrong with Chang Yuntian.
When he first entered the court, he was quite well-behaved and knew how to hide his sharp edge.
Unexpectedly, he wanted to cause trouble for Gu Jinnian as soon as he opened his mouth. He was really desperate.
However, the good thing is that Gu Jinnian's move is amazing.
The city that never sleeps in the Great Xia uses absolute interests to bind all the officials of the imperial court and make them unite. This kind of behavior is really a method of all things.
The great thing about Gu Jinnian is that he is obviously taking advantage of the situation and needs the support of the officials, but it creates the feeling that the officials must ask for help from Gu Jinnian.
Although everyone divides the accounts, Gu Jinnian does not accept officials entering the accounts privately. He raises money for the six departments, and the money is given to the six departments, not to the minister.
It is equivalent to the department having money. You can spend more if you want, but this money does not belong to your six ministers.
If you are replaced as the minister, you will have nothing, and the six departments will still be the six departments. The officials below will not care about a minister who has lost power. The new minister will continue to make everyone happy.
So to them, it doesn't matter whoever is the minister.
The initiative is still in his hands.
It can be regarded as concentrated power in disguise, and the effect is very good.
In the past, when a policy was rolled out, this one refused, and which one refused. Regardless of this policy, there were indeed many problems.
But it is not a question of interests at all.
It's like expanding the army.
If the army is expanded, the Ministry of War will definitely be happy, but other departments will definitely not agree, which will cause controversy.
However, expanding the army is a good thing, protecting the country and strengthening the court. However, due to the competing interests of all parties, sometimes it is obviously a good thing, but in the end it ends up being nothing.
Nowadays, who can still value the three melons and two dates from the treasury? The annual accounts are tens of millions of taels of silver.
The whole department has been well nourished, and everything else is easy to talk about.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we won’t fight, but we won’t fight like before. We will retreat to advance, or at worst, we will slowly queue up.
Especially now that there is one more person coming out, and this person is Gu Jinnian. If anything extreme happens, or a conflict breaks out, if Gu Jinnian appears, who will not give him face?
This is the horror of the city that never sleeps in Daxia.
What Emperor Yongsheng knows best is the emperor's mind. Everything Gu Jinnian did was for the sake of harmony in the court. Naturally, he would agree and be willing to agree.
If it was really about using money to keep someone quiet, he would be the first to stop.
And as Emperor Yongsheng spoke up.
He Yan stood up immediately.
"Start your Majesty."
"Since the opening of Daxia Evernight City, I have paid more or less attention to it."
"The whole people of Kyoto are very happy about it. The official salt is sold at a low price, which is well received by the people. The dragon rice in the river makes the people even more happy."
"As for the people of Jiangzhong County, their grains are sold at high prices, and the people are applauded. In the three major disaster areas, the people of Jiangzhong County have spontaneously raised money."
"Such behavior has never happened in any dynasty. It is an act of prosperity."
"Furthermore, Mr. Yang and Mr. Wang are just caring for the subordinates of the department. They are not extravagant or showing off their wealth. At least I didn't see it."
"Your Majesty, please give me a clear warning."
He Yan opened his mouth and blew up Daxia's Evernight City, and by the way, he also blew up Yang Kai and Wang Qixin.
Then He Yan opened his mouth.
The voice of Zhao Yiyang, Minister of the Ministry of War, could not help but sound.
"His Majesty."
"I think what Sir He said is absolutely correct."
"I went to the military camp yesterday and found that the army was in harmony. After careful questioning, I found out that these soldiers bought some mirrors and sent them to their homes. My wife at home was deeply pleased and loved them."
"Although it costs dozens of taels of silver, it can bring about family harmony. For this reason alone, Daxia Evernight City is simply beneficial to the present day and has great merits for the future."
If He Yan was bragging, then Zhao Yiyang was simply bragging.
But this did not prevent Zhao Yiyang from being proud.
Suddenly, the Minister of Punishment also came out.
"His Majesty."
"The city that never sleeps in the summer is great."
"I heard a great scholar praise this city that never sleeps two days ago and even wrote a poem about it."
"Your Majesty, please listen."
The Minister of Punishment coughed and then began to read poetry.
“Kyoto is majestic and glorious.”
"There is light in the city that never sleeps."
"The scholar is curious and goes inside."
"There is laughter across the city."
"Your Majesty, this poem can't express the goodness of the city that never sleeps in Daxia? Anyway, hello to everyone, that's what's really good."
The Minister of Punishment had to bite the bullet, he couldn't write poetry, but in order to echo it, he forced a seven-character poem, but as for the rhyme and so on, he put it aside for now.
Anyway, just one sentence and it's all done.
Everyone said something to each other, which made Chang Yuntian feel numb all over.
It is rare to see such a harmonious scene. The civil servants and military generals are all praising, and the more they praise, the more outrageous and outrageous they become.
"Your Majesty, I and others all agree that the city that never sleeps in Daxia is a wonder of Daxia. Firstly, it is unique in the world and demonstrates the greatness of Daxia. Secondly, it benefits the people and the country. The people buy official salt and rice at low prices.
And so on, and thirdly, you can earn silver, which can be used as tax revenue for the court in the future."
"Only Mr. Hou in the world can think of this triple achievement."
"I am a little curious, Chang Yushi, why do you want to criticize and impeach the city that never sleeps in Daxia?"
"Although Yang Shangshu and Wang Shangshu are a bit wild, they are within reason. The subordinates in the department have worked hard, especially in the hot summer. They have earned money and allowed their subordinates to live a better life."
"Is this wrong?"
"Chang Yushi, what are your intentions?"
At this moment, someone from the State Council spoke out, looking at Changyuntian and speaking coldly.
Damn it, you want to cut off my financial path? Are you afraid that you are tired of living?
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the court immediately began to criticize.
"Chang Yushi, what are your intentions?"
"The Marquis has done so many things for me, Daxia, and now he has built a city that never sleeps, which benefits the country and the people. How come you think it is a harm to the country?"
"I wonder if you are jealous of me, Marquis Tianming, so you are deliberately attacking me?"
The voices became more and more intense and unpleasant. In the end, they simply stopped pretending. Some military officers pointed directly at Chang Yuntian's nose and started beating and scolding him in various ways.
"Are you worthy of impeaching my Marquis? Do you know how hard my Marquis works?"
"There are so many people out there, how dare you criticize me, Lord Marquis? Do you believe it or not, how will the people of Great Xia criticize you if this news spreads?"
"It's really abominable. My Lord Marquis has worked so hard to serve the country and the people, but it's worthless in your eyes? You actually dare to impeach me, Lord Marquis. Damn it, if I don't beat you up today, I will take your surname.
"
The civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty became more fierce and angry as they talked, and some generals even wanted to fight.
"Don't mess around."
At this moment, He Yan's voice sounded.
He looked at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty with sharp eyes.
"Are you honest enough to talk to me in the court?"
"You have to wait until the fight is over before you fight."
After He Yan finished the first half of the sentence, a pair of eyes stared at him for an instant, but after hearing the last half of the sentence, he was still able to accept it.
But for Chang Yuntian.
He couldn't accept it.
What is going on in this world? Is this a dispute between the court and the court?
Why is it completely different from what I imagined?
Chang Yuntian was really at a loss. He knew that Gu Jinnian had high prestige, and he also knew that a large number of civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty would support Gu Jinnian.
But what he never expected was that all civil and military officials in the court supported Gu Jinnian?
This is not logical at all.
The battles in the court are all about profit. The Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War have nothing to do with Gu Jinnian, right?
In other words, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry took advantage of Gu Jinnian.
Why should others help Gu Jinnian?
He could accept half of the people not helping him, but he couldn't accept everyone helping Gu Jinnian.
"alright."
At this moment, Emperor Yongsheng's voice sounded. He stood in a high position, looked at Chang Yuntian, and then spoke lightly.
"Changyuntian."
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Listening to Emperor Yongsheng's words, Chang Yuntian looked ugly.
The current situation is completely different from what I thought, and this impeachment has become the biggest joke.
"minister."
"Nothing to say."
Chang Yuntian's face turned gloomy. He lowered his head and really didn't know what to say.
It was obviously He Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who asked him to come forward.
As a result, He Yan was the first to rebel, and he was the most powerful in his rebuttal. What else did he have to say?
What can I say?
He Yan, He Yan, you old bastard, just wait for me. As long as I seize the opportunity, I will fight you to the death.
At this moment, Chang Yuntian didn't hate Gu Jinnian, nor did he hate the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. What he hated was He Yan.
Even if He Yan didn't say anything in order to protect himself, Chang Yuntian wouldn't be too angry. He would just treat you as coward, scared, sitting there for a long time, without any blood.
But what the hell are you trying to do? Let yourself come forward to attract firepower, realize that the situation is not right, and sell yourself out directly?
OK.
OK.
You are really awesome.
Hearing Chang Yuntian admit his mistake, Emperor Yongsheng glanced at him with disdain.
"You were recommended by the King of Qin. As a censor, you do have the responsibility of impeachment. But if you impeach randomly without knowing the truth, you come here based on your nature. How can you look like a censor?"
"But I remember that you sent half a volume of scriptures on the Destiny Saint for the Great Xia Dynasty, so I will forgive you for not investigating this time."
"But if something like this happens again, I won't be polite."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke.
He didn't know who this Chang Yuntian was, but what he knew was that this Chang Yuntian was not a good person.
It's not the emperor's seal, nor is it illogical.
Would it be a good idea to impeach Gu Jinnian?
This is really not because Gu Jinnian is his nephew, the main reason is that Gu Jinnian has done so many things in the Great Xia Dynasty, and everything he did can be remembered for generations.
To put it bluntly, Gu Jinnian was heartbroken. Even if Gu Jinnian took away a million troops and established himself as king, Emperor Yongsheng would not feel any hatred at all.
Because Gu Jinnian matched.
It's like this city that never sleeps in the summer. With so much money, Gu Jinnian's first thought was to unite everyone to make money together, and even give him a share of 50%. That's fine. What's more important is that 30% of it is given to the court.
In this way, after deducting all costs and everyone's share, how much will Gu Jinnian have?
Furthermore, Gu Jinnian was destined to become a saint in the future, and he did not care about silver. Emperor Yongsheng did not believe anyone who said this, but only Gu Jinnian said that he believed it.
Especially what Gu Jinnian said yesterday that everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty can read the book, relying on such ambition.
Why doesn't he support his nephew?
Why should he doubt his nephew?
Gu Jinnian really wanted to rebel, really wanted to do something to harm himself, and defected directly to Prince Ning. If not, he defected to the Zhongzhou Dynasty. What could he do to Gu Jinnian?
But Gu Jinnian didn't do that.
The nephew has already done his best. If he, the uncle, has any doubts.
Then my uncle is really not a human being.
It can be said that Gu Jinnian is not a court official at all, nor is he his nephew. He transcends everything. The relationship between him and Gu Jinnian is not a monarch and minister, but a true family relationship.
Therefore, anyone who tries to impeach Gu Jinnian or wants to cause trouble for Gu Jinnian is a bad person in his opinion.
If the Emperor's Seal cannot be found, it doesn't matter.
He can see it.
Facing Emperor Yongsheng's rebuke, no matter how arrogant Chang Yuntian was, he could only lower his head.
"I obey the decree."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lowering his proud head, Chang Yuntian inevitably felt aggrieved in his heart.
As a leader in Dao Daofu, he is a genius among geniuses and one of the strongest contenders for destiny in the future.
He came to the Daxia Dynasty because he wanted to target Gu Jinnian, so he came willingly, and also to plot a big plan.
In other words, Chang Yuntian didn't care about the Great Xia Dynasty at all. He didn't like the position of imperial censor, even the position of censor.
If it wasn't for the big plan, if it wasn't for the purpose of suppressing Gu Jinnian, would he have come to this place?
Will you still bow your head and surrender?
In his eyes, all the civil and military officials present here are like ants. If it were not for the fight for destiny, would he be an adult?
Frustrated.
Frustrated.
Chang Yuntian's biggest frustration is this. If destiny comes, who do these people think they are?
A mere Daxia dynasty.
Some officials in a mere dynasty.
They are all like dogs.
Chang Yuntian hid his endless anger and grievance in his heart. Now that he had no power, he could not say anything.
"Retreat from the court."
Emperor Yongsheng didn't bother to say anything more. He didn't directly target Chang Yuntian. Did he have other ideas? Or as he said, the enemy on the surface is not scary at all.
The scary thing is the person hiding in the dark.
"Long live my emperor, long live me."
The officials spoke, bowed to Emperor Yongsheng, and then withdrew as usual.
However, today is different from the past. Hundreds of officials gathered together and had a good time, and it was a rare gathering of civil and military officials.
"Everyone, I am happy today. I went to Pingjiang Tower for a drink. I am treating you. You can eat whatever you want and drink whatever you want."
"All I have is money."
Wang Qixin's voice sounded.
Chang Yuntian felt extremely harsh.
But Chang Yuntian didn't speak, but left here quietly.
When hundreds of officials gathered together, he looked very different. He was like an orphan. A few days ago, at least some officials were willing to go with him and chat about political issues.
But things are different now. Even his fellow censors are unwilling to go with him, as if he is the god of plague.
Inside the palace.
Chang Yuntian looked at He Yan, his eyes filled with complexity.
"Old man board!"
"I will fight with you until death."
Chang Yuntian took a deep breath in his heart, now that Gu Jinnian is no longer his biggest enemy, He Yan has become his number one enemy.
Scholars can be killed but not humiliated.
in this way.
Two hours later.
Inside a mansion in Kyoto.
Chang Yuntian sat in the lobby, silent, while two figures stood in front of him.
The two figures are Li Ruoyu and Lu Chengyan respectively.
If Chang Yuntian still has a sense of existence, Li Ruoyu and Lu Chengyan have almost zero sense of existence.
One of them works in the household department, and the other works in the official department. They seem to be prosperous, but in fact they only do chores.
The position is quite high, Yuanwailang, but the court doesn't give them anything to do.
They had so much talent but couldn't put it to good use, and the two of them were frustrated.
"Senior Brother Chang, why do you think I'm waiting here?"
"It's simply embarrassing to be here. The three of us are the geniuses of Dao Dao Mansion."
"When I came to this place, it didn't matter if I wasn't welcomed, and they even played tricks on me."
When Li Ruoyu spoke, he felt very complicated.
Originally, according to their plan, the two of them just took out the saint's scriptures and showed their faces, and waited for Chang Yuntian to take out the destiny saint's scriptures and save the people of Great Xia, thereby surpassing Gu Jinnian and gaining unprecedented prestige.
Then they settled in the Daxia Dynasty, and the two of them became one of the six ministers as quickly as possible, and Chang Yuntian became the prime minister of Daxia.
There will definitely be some obstacles in this process, but they are not afraid.
This is their plan.
But what they didn't expect was that after one wrong move, the two of them were just a member of the imperial family, and their senior brother, Yuntian, was just a censor.
He finally seized the opportunity to impeach Gu Jinnian, but he didn't expect that he would become a joke in the court.
How can this keep them from feeling aggrieved?
Listening to what Li Ruoyu said, Chang Yuntian remained silent, while Lu Chengyan on the side couldn't help but speak.
"This time all the civil and military officials in the court have unified opinions, so there must be hidden secrets."
"Although senior brother is trying to impeach Gu Jinnian, it doesn't mean that no one will help."
"But, Senior Brother Chang, do we really want to stay in the Great Xia Dynasty?"
"Why don't we leave? After all, the Great Xia Dynasty is not our battlefield. Gu Jinnian has gathered momentum. The current situation in all aspects is extremely unfavorable for us."
Lu Chengyan spoke.
They originally thought they could suppress Gu Jinnian after entering the Daxia Dynasty, but now it seems that it is almost impossible.
"No!"
Chang Yuntian shook his head, took a deep breath, and then looked at the two of them.
"No matter what, continue to stay in the Great Xia Dynasty."
"At least no matter what, I have to beat Gu Jinnian once."
"The battle for destiny hasn't started yet. Even if we lose now, we won't suffer much loss."
"But if I can't suppress Gu Jinnian, I won't be willing to accept it. Besides, when I came to the Great Xia Dynasty, I also came with a mission."
"The Great Xia Dynasty has a divine weapon hidden away. If we don't find it, it will not be a good thing for us when the battle for destiny comes."
Chang Yuntian shook his head.
Of course, after he said so much, the core point was that he was unconvinced.
He was really unconvinced.
This resentment kept in his heart made him extremely uncomfortable. He didn't think about anything but one thing, and that was to suppress Gu Jinnian once.
Even once will do.
Hearing this, the other two fell silent.
It's not anything else, nor is it a lack of self-confidence. The main thing is that now all the officials are united, completely excluding the three of them.
I don’t know if he has the same heart as Gu Jinnian, but he definitely doesn’t have the same heart as them.
This is equivalent to looking for trouble within the enemy. Isn't this asking for trouble?
All said and done, it's still a little bit.
During the Great Xia Tian Disaster, Chang Yuntian was too confident and arrogant. If Chang Yuntian had taken out half a volume of the Destiny Saint scriptures earlier, Gu Jinnian would not have had anything to do.
Gu Jinnian is a scholar in Daxia, so as to increase his luck. He hopes that everyone will be like a dragon and write the scriptures of the Destined Saint.
The light that covers everything.
Otherwise, if Chang Yuntian saves the people of Daxia, what will happen even if the Emperor of Daxia knows that Chang Yuntian has evil intentions? What if Gu Jinnian knows that Chang Yuntian is his enemy?
As long as Chang Yuntian doesn't do anything that goes against the people or harms the people, there's nothing anyone can do against him.
If you miss one move, you will lose the whole game.
Therefore, facing Chang Yuntian's behavior, the two of them were somewhat reluctant.
But after all, Chang Yuntian is their senior brother, so they have nothing to say.
"Senior Brother Chang, we cannot impeach Gu Jinnian about this matter in the Great Xia Evernight City. What should we do next to solve it?"
Li Ruoyu spoke and looked at Chang Yuntian, his eyes full of curiosity.
"It's true that I didn't think enough about the matter in Daxia's Sleepless City."
"Yesterday, he asked me to impeach him. Today in the court, he betrayed me. It is difficult for such a person to become a great leader."
"But it seems that there must be a secret in this whole thing that we don't know about."
"Right now, I really don't know why the officials' attitude suddenly changed, so it's difficult to implement the next plan."
Chang Yuntian spoke.
He is not stupid. Baiguan suddenly changed his temper. He didn't think well of the city that never sleeps in the past few days, but suddenly he felt that the city that never sleeps is good.
If there wasn't any secret, he wouldn't believe it.
"Senior Brother Chang, if you say this, I might know something."
"Didn't His Majesty ask all officials to donate silver yesterday?"
"I heard that the amount of silver donated by the Minister of Rites and the Ministry of Industry is extremely terrifying, but the specific amount is not clear. It is just that the number that can make a person like Wei Xian a true man, I think it is at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, or even a million taels of silver.
Isn’t that too much?”
"Could it be that this is the case, Daxia Evernight City is really making money, and after the officials learned about it, they regretted it, and Gu Jinnian distributed it to everyone in order to win over the officials, so the interests were linked and it was one-sided."
"Otherwise, everything in this court will be controversial. It is impossible for such a situation to happen."
Li Ruoyu opened his mouth and said this.
As soon as these words came out, Chang Yuntian frowned slightly, but Lu Chengyan immediately spoke.
"This is very likely. Yesterday, many officials did go to the city that never sleeps."
Lu Chengyan said firmly.
"Then that seems to be the case."
"It's just that the profit of this city that never sleeps in the summer should not be much. I have carefully calculated that it only depends on dragon rice and some crystal mirrors. Although this kind of thing is very profitable, it is almost enough for a family to buy it once. Three dragon rice
If you buy it once a month, you already have a large population.”
"You can make a lot of money, but the maintenance cost of Daxia Evernight City is also high, which is very weird,"
"How much money did you make?"
Chang Yuntian was a little confused.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chengyan continued to speak.
"I don't know about the rest. I have a good friend. He came to visit me just yesterday and mentioned the Evernight City. He bought a shop in the Evernight City. It is said that it cost a lot."
Lu Chengyan spoke out, thinking about this matter.
"Shop?"
"How much money did it cost?"
Hearing the word "shop", Chang Yuntian immediately realized something and couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know about this junior brother. The main reason is that this friend doesn't mean much to me and we don't have much interaction. He came to me just to build a relationship, so I didn't ask any more questions."
Lu Chengyan spoke.
In fact, he looks down on the other person. In his eyes, this kind of person is not a friend.
"Chengyan, go and ask him immediately how much money he spent on buying the shop."
Chang Yuntian opened his mouth and asked the other party to go for a run.
in this way.
About half an hour later.
Lu Chengyan is back.
But his face was full of surprise and shock.
"Senior Brother Chang, I finally understand why Baiguan treats you like this."
He did not directly tell the price, but suddenly realized why Chang Yuntian was targeted.
"Why?"
Chang Yuntian frowned, a little confused.
"The cheapest shop in Daxia Evernight City sells for two million taels of silver."
"The better one is 5 million taels of silver, and the better one is 10 million taels of silver, and they were all sold out in just three days."
"There are still twenty gold shops, each worth at least thirty million taels of silver."
"In other words, just from selling these shops, the profit has reached five to six hundred million taels of silver."
"The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry were allocated at least tens of millions of taels of silver, so the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty could not bear it any longer. They went to Daxia Evernight City last night, and it is said that they had already negotiated the allocation with Gu Jinnian."
Lu Chengyan opened his mouth and told the truth.
"A shop sells two million taels of silver?"
"This is impossible."
Chang Yuntian couldn't accept it. This was simply impossible. It wasn't that he was short-sighted, but that he knew what two million taels of silver meant.
Two million taels of silver can be used to build a small palace.
Just to buy a store? Is this reasonable?
This is simply unreasonable.
"Senior Brother Chang, I don't believe it either, but it's true."
"Junior brother not only asked him, but also asked several people to ask. This is indeed the case."
"And think about it, senior brother, if this were not the case, why would the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Work be so arrogant?"
"Moreover, why did the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty unite the front?"
"To put it bluntly, it's just a few million taels of silver, even tens of millions of taels of silver, I'm afraid it won't be able to feed the entire court."
"Only huge wealth can make them like this."
Lu Chengyan spoke up. To be honest, he didn't believe it, nor did he want to believe it, but the problem was the fact.
No matter how much you don't want to admit that Gu Jinnian is outstanding, you have to admit it this time.
In an instant.
Chang Yuntian sat down in his seat. He really didn't expect that Daxia Evernight City, which he didn't care about at all, could actually make so much money.
Afterwards, Lu Chengyan continued to speak, explaining clearly why this shop could be sold for such a sky-high price.
After Lu Chengyan finished speaking.
Chang Yuntian couldn't help but frown.
"You mean that a shop can make a profit of 5,000 taels of silver in one day by selling sugar water?"
Changyuntian spoke up and asked.
"Senior brother, yes."
The other party spoke and nodded.
Hearing this, Chang Yuntian suddenly realized.
"I see."
Changyuntian understood clearly, and then showed a confident smile.
"Senior brother, why are you laughing?"
This time, the two of them were a little confused. They didn't understand why Chang Yuntian was laughing suddenly. This was not a good thing.
"I laugh at how stupid these businessmen are, they can't even understand this."
"This city that never sleeps in the summer is completely a scam carefully designed by Gu Jinnian."
"Now the people are indeed gathering in the city that never sleeps. It looks extremely lively, but in fact? In a few days, there won't be many people going to visit, and business will be bleak."
"There are many people now, but what will happen in the future? Gu Jinnian built the city that never sleeps in Daxia to make money every day just to defraud people."
"The unlucky ones are these businessmen, but businessmen are the most obedient. They dare not challenge the court."
"And use these petty profits to deceive the officials and paint a bright future for them."
"This method is indeed powerful, and it has a good grasp on people's hearts."
"However, things like interests can never stabilize people's hearts."
Chang Yuntian spoke, seeming to understand something. In his eyes, this city that never sleeps is not worth mentioning at all.
After hearing this, the two felt a little strange, but they didn't know what to say.
"Senior Brother Chang, what other methods do we have next?"
"Whether Gu Jinnian is a scam or not, judging from the current situation, it is ultimately not good for us."
Li Ruoyu opened his mouth and frowned a little.
No matter if it is a scam or not, now that all officials are united, it is superfluous to say anything.
You can't solve this situation.
"Prime Minister."
"No matter how much silver you have, it can't compare to your official position."
"The Prime Minister of Great Xia, Li Shan, has been executed. The position of Prime Minister is currently vacant."
"The Minister of Civil Affairs has been staring at this position, and don't the other ministers have any ideas at all?"
Chang Yuntian spoke.
He is full of confidence.
"The position of prime minister."
"I see."
The two of them instantly understood what Chang Yuntian wanted to do.
Let them fight among themselves.
After all, the position of prime minister cannot be exchanged for silver taels. No amount of money can exchange it.
"Then what does senior brother plan to do?"
The two of them were curious and asked Chang Yuntian.
"It's enough to do nothing. The Minister of Civil Affairs will fight for it himself."
"And don't think that there is nothing going on in Daxia now. The matter of the Alliance is before us. If this matter is not resolved, the Daxia Dynasty will have trouble sleeping and eating."
Chang Yuntian opened his mouth and said.
Treating by doing nothing will produce the best results.
"You two just need to do your best to support Hu Yong. He is an ambitious man."
"He was the only person in the court today who did not criticize me."
"It's obvious that he doesn't want to offend me. He knows there's someone behind me and wants to win over me."
"If there is a chance, the two of you can arrange for me to visit him and then give him confidence."
Chang Yuntian spoke.
At the same time, he specifically mentioned some things in the court.
Because in the court today, it is true that the Minister of Civil Affairs did not say much. He just said that the city that never sleeps in Daxia is good, but it is nothing.
Under the general trend, Hu Yong said something against his will, but it was nothing.
The six ministers and all the princes and princes gathered together.
However, the lobby seemed extremely quiet.
Everyone's eyes fell on the Minister of Civil Affairs.
"explain!"
"Why didn't you criticize Chang Yuntian in the court today?"
"Are you colluding with him?"
Duke Xin Guo stared at Hu Yong fiercely, and the other officials also looked fiercely. They gathered here to settle accounts after the fall.
There are things in the court that are difficult to say directly. Now that everyone is gathered here, they will naturally not let every traitor go.
Hearing Duke Xin Guo speak like this, Hu Yong said with a bitter look on his face.
"Oh, you have wronged me."
"It's not that I don't say anything, it's that I can't get a word in."
"Besides, each of you scolds you more fiercely than the other. What difference does it make whether I scold you or not?"
Hu Yong stood up, feeling extremely aggrieved.
It's not that he doesn't scold, it's not that he doesn't speak, it's just that he can't get a word in. The people in the court are each more fierce than the last, and each one speaks faster than the last. Even if he wants to interrupt, it's useless.
But what they didn't expect was that they actually mistakenly thought that he had evil intentions.
However, after saying this, no one present believed it.
"I swear to God here, if I have any collusion with this guy, I will be struck by lightning."
"You know who I am, how could I be complicit with him?"
Hu Yong is really frustrated.
It’s really uncomfortable to be targeted just because you didn’t curse a few words.
"Let me tell you Hu Yong, no matter whether you are sincere or fake, since we cooperate with the Marquis, we must be of the same mind. Isn't it just for this little money that we fight against each other in the court every day?"
"Now that I have finally made money, if you want to cause trouble, I will be the first to refuse."
Xin Guo publicly spoke.
What he said makes sense.
What is everyone fighting over? It’s not just money.
Now that we have money, if we still want to cause trouble, isn't there something wrong with our brains?
"Ouch."
"I really have nothing to do with him. That guy is a fool. Am I sick? Besides, what benefit can he give me?"
"If you don't believe it, can I swear on the whole family?"
Hu Yong was so angry that he had nothing to say, and he hated Chang Yuntian even more in his heart.
"Okay, okay."
"Master Hu really doesn't talk much on weekdays."
"Since we have a common goal now, we shouldn't start fighting among ourselves."
At this moment, Yang Kai, the Minister of Rites, spoke up, and he could see that Hu Yong was not lying.
Of course, everyone's reaction was reasonable.
After all, it's all about money.
"Don't say anything else."
"I just say a word, everyone, listen carefully."
"Now that the Marquis has given us the money, let's work hard."
"No matter what happens, in short, everything is dominated by the Marquis. Anyone who hinders the development of Daxia Evernight City or hinders the Marquis is our common enemy."
"If anyone dares to mess around, He will not let anyone go."
He Yan stood up and spoke.
These words were unanimously recognized by everyone.
"However, Mr. Hu, there is obviously something wrong with Chang Yuntian."
"You do have some suspicions at the moment, but in order to clear the suspicions, do you think this is okay? Chang Yuntian will probably come looking for you. As for what he is looking for you for, I don't know."
"But if he really comes to you, no matter what happens, you have to tell us as soon as possible."
"This guy has no good intentions. His Majesty did not punish him severely today. The main reason is because he gave half a volume of scriptures on the Destiny Saint."
"But if he troubles the Marquis again and again, Your Majesty will not let him go."
"So we have to devise a plan to let him jump in on his own, not to mention killing him, but at least to ruin his reputation. What do you think?"
He Yan continued to speak and proposed an idea.
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
"This is okay."
"That's right, this guy definitely doesn't have any good intentions. I agree with what you said."
"Okay, okay, this can be done."
Everyone nodded, approving the plan.
"I have no problem at all."
"If there is any news, I will notify you as soon as possible."
Hu Yong said, if he can clear his suspicion, he fully agrees.
Then, everyone began to make plans. Each of these people was smarter than the last, so the plans they spoke out were more vicious than the last.
Why deliberately bribe people from the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War to wait outside?
As long as Chang Yuntian accepts the money, the Ministry of Punishment will arrest him on the spot, seize the person and the stolen goods, and the Ministry of Military Affairs will execute the sentence, and his head will immediately fall to the ground.
Or maybe he was sent to work in other places to do something that couldn't be completed at all. If he couldn't complete it, he would be escorted back to Beijing, and then all kinds of problems would be made to make his life worse than death every day. If it was completed, then it would be completed, and then he would be replaced.
Not enough.
All in all, Chang Yuntian would never have imagined that he would become the biggest civil and military enemy of the Manchu Dynasty.
And at the same time.
In the city that never sleeps in Daxia.
Gu Jinnian is writing a memorial.
Looking at the development of Daxia Evernight City, the profit progress has far exceeded my imagination.
So the plan to fully advance the Great Xia Evernight City must be implemented quickly.
Gu Jinnian previously thought it would take at least half a year, but he underestimated how low the level of entertainment in ancient times was.
The success of Daxia Evernight City gave Gu Jinnian a lot of hope.
The total profit of Kyoto Night City so far is almost 600,000 taels of silver, and the previous 500,000 taels of silver have been perfectly utilized.
Gu Jinnian planned to use the remaining money to build more cities that never sleep.
His goal is not to make a small amount of money, he wants to make a huge sum of money as quickly as possible.
And the purpose of it all.
It's for four things.
【educate】
【military】
【trading】
【Ministry of Industry】
Education is very simple. It means that everyone in the whole country should have access to books and that every newborn can read and read.
Knowledge is power, even in this world of immortal martial arts, there is no problem.
As long as knowledge and education are popularized among the people, the development of the country will be greatly improved.
And if you want to popularize the entire Daxia Dynasty, the amount of silver you need to spend can be said to be astronomical.
Only the city that never sleeps in Daxia can fill this bottomless pit.
But even though he knew it was a bottomless pit, Gu Jinnian still did it because he knew that if he could become a saint, this matter would be of great help to him.
Similarly, you can also achieve one of the four established sentences of Hengqu and continue the unique learning for the saints.
As for the military aspect,
This is also what Gu Jinnian values most.
It is not simply about increasing the number of troops, nor is it simply about improving the strength of soldiers.
It's about changing the way you fight.
With the help of the ancient spirit-gathering formation, the Daxia dragon boat, the Daxia treasure ship, and the Daxia dragon cannon, earth-shaking changes have been completed.
He wants to build an invincible army.
This army has three major elements: sea, land and air.
In other words.
If it is really built.
The great war between the Daxia Dynasty and the Xiongnu Kingdom was resolved within an hour, shocking the entire Divine Continent.
This is his purpose.
Modern warfare reform.
And all of this requires astronomical figures to support it.
But if it is really done, the Daxia Dynasty will become an invincible dynasty in the future.
Ordinary fighting methods.
How is it possible to fight a modern war?
This inspiration came from a war in my previous life. That war shocked the whole world.
This is an extremely grand plan.
And Gu Jinnian has already begun to think and prepare.
