Wu Jun decided to attack the Southern Dynasty, not for the purpose of aggression, but to use it as a whetstone.
Used to hone the Soochow Navy.
I'm worried that the Soochow Navy's attempt to gain fame and reputation is just a show.
It was also the battle between the Wu Dynasty and Bei Mo that made him keep an eye on it.
Zhang Baiyi sighed softly, feeling that what Wu Jun said was very reasonable, so he did not raise any other opinions.
In this way, the Soochow Navy actively developed, prepared for war, and prepared for a war with the Southern Dynasties.
…
When Jiang Ning returned to the capital, it was already four or five days later.
He secretly returned to the imperial city and refused the so-called generous greetings.
When all the civil and military officials saw the sudden return of Emperor Wu, who was conducting his personal expedition, they all wept with joy and tears. They chattered endlessly and flattered him in various ways.
Jiang Ning didn't pay attention, and of course he didn't interrupt.
After their flattery was over, Jiang Ning got back to business and said calmly: "My dear friends, when I came back from the southeastern border, I dressed up in disguise and presented myself as an ordinary person. You can imagine what happened!"
As soon as this sound came out, all the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace were stunned.
How could this be guessed?
However, all the civil and military officials still spoke one after another...
"What your Majesty must have seen must be a scene of prosperity!"
"yes!"
"The common people live and work in peace and contentment, do not close their homes at night, and do not pick up lost items on the road. This is truly a harmonious society!"
"Yes, yes, that must be the case!"
One by one, officials touted...
The six ministers headed by Yang Hui were all silent, thinking that since Emperor Wu could say this in the Golden Palace, there must be some clues.
So, I won’t say much, just wait and see!
"Haha..." Jiang Ning smiled, but there was a hint of anger in the depths of his pupils, "What a harmonious society, dear friends, that's so well said!"
Some officials did not hear the implication of Jiang Ning's words and continued to agree.
"Hehe...back to Your Majesty, it seems we guessed it right!"
"yes!"
"Today is a time of peace and prosperity, and it must be a harmonious society!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
The flattery continues.
To be honest, Jiang Ning can't stand it now.
Suddenly, his face suddenly darkened.
Snapped!
He slapped the dragon case hard.
This sound, like thunder, resounded throughout the entire Golden Palace, giving people an extremely harsh feeling.
It was at this moment that all civil and military officials silenced their voices and bowed their heads.
His body was shaking uncontrollably.
"Haha... Datong society, what a Datong society!" Jiang Ning sneered, no longer trying to hide it, "Could it be that the Datong society you call is seeking power for personal gain, pampering and arrogance, being lawless, bullying men and dominating women, and preying on the common people?
To seize fertile land?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked and speechless.
One by one, their expressions became very ugly, and it was obvious that they were trying to flatter the horses by slapping them on the hooves.
This made Jiang Ning even more angry.
"Where is the Golden Guard?" Jiang Ning shouted angrily in a deep voice.
"exist!"
As soon as he finished speaking, eight golden guards walked in.
All of them are majestic and energetic. After being baptized with blood, their aura is stronger.
The civil and military officials didn't quite understand why Jiang Ning suddenly asked Jin Yiwei to do it.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Ning said: "All the officials who praised me just now, please stand up!"
"Twenty battles!"
At this moment, all civil and military officials turned to stone.
They never expected that this kind of punishment would be waiting for them.
Naturally, no officials dared to resist, and they all accepted it.
I sighed in my heart, flattering me was just a slap on the horse's hooves!
If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have said anything!
In the twenty-first battle, if you can't die, you will just suffer some physical pain. If you resist now, it will definitely not be as simple as physical pain. You can still see clearly which one is more serious.
Just like that, on the Golden Palace, Jiang Ning ordered people to beat the officials who were flattering them. After a while, screams started to sound.
Since the current Emperor Wu was sitting in the Golden Palace, no one dared to shout.
An hour later, everyone who had praised Jiang Ning just now was beaten up.
They all blushed, rubbed their backs, and sighed in their hearts...
Jiang Ning looked around at the crowd and said calmly: "Do you know why I hit you?"
"The reason is that you are telling lies with your eyes open and making trouble in front of me!"
"Remember, this is what I hate the most!"
"Yes...Your Majesty..." The officials who were beaten all lowered their heads and did not dare to say another word of flattery.
"Also, what I want to hear is the truth. Don't show up in the Golden Palace if you flatter me like that!" Jiang Ning frowned and spat coldly.
"yes!"
No one dared to talk anymore.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic. I met a local official in Fancheng County, Luzhou, who claimed to be the county magistrate and the local emperor. Moreover, this local official has done all kinds of bad things. I am just telling you about this matter today.
Just woke up!"
"Whoever dares to take bribes and pervert the law, whoever dares to prey on the common people, hum... the long knife in my hand will definitely chop you down hard!"
Jiang Ning said coldly again.
It can also be considered as a warning to all civil and military officials.
"Yes...Your Majesty, I understand!"
Jiang Ning continued: "Xu Wenqing, I now order you to start a Beijing inspection for a period of three years. All local officials, large and small, will be investigated by me. As long as they fail the inspection, they will be dismissed from their official positions, and those with serious crimes will be dismissed."
, cut it directly!"
"I give you the privilege!"
Xu Wenqing stood up and responded respectfully.
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
After Jiang Ning finished speaking, he sighed softly, "Remember, whoever dares to gossip in front of me should be careful with your heads!"
"Okay, that's it for today!"
"Retreat!"
"Best farewell to Emperor Wu, long live my emperor!"
When Jiangning Yujia came back from the expedition in person, he severely punished the officials.
Of course, he did this on purpose.
Because he knew in his heart that in the past few days when he was not in the court, there must have been a clique again. Beating people was also sending a signal to them. Whoever dared to form a clique for personal gain or act recklessly should be careful with their heads!
Back to the harem…
Liu Yunxiang had been waiting for a long time. The moment she saw Jiang Ning, her brows were twitching and she looked shy.
"His Majesty……"
Jiang Ning looked at the little wild cat not far away and smiled, "Queen, have you missed me?"
Without saying a word, Liu Yunxiang rushed to Jiang Ning.
"Yes I do!"
"I think about it so much!"
"During your absence, I haven't been able to sleep well every night, so sorry... sorry!"
She spoke coquettishly, her slender hands becoming dishonest.
The hand slid lightly from Jiang Ning's chest...
Jiang Ning was instantly aroused by Liu Yunxiang, and without saying a word, he threw her on the bed, "Little goblin, today I will let you know what a dragon entering the sky is!"
