The last day of the Gengzi Year in Great Xia, New Year’s Eve.
Red lanterns are hung on the streets and alleys, contrasting with the snowy scenery for ten miles, making it look extremely dazzling and festive.
Children going from house to house took to the streets, it was so lively.
Qin Yun announced to the world early that morning that half of all taxes in the new year would be exempted, and some areas that suffered from natural disasters would be exempted entirely!
Just to recuperate and recuperate so that people can live.
In addition, some political opinions of Gu Chuntang and others were also passed and passed on.
One is to increase the people's food supply, and the other is to increase the court's finances. They are both win-win strategies.
According to the plan, initial results will be achieved in about half a year.
Tai Chi Hall.
All the officials come to pay their respects!
There were more than twenty border ministers in total, and they also came to report their duties with gifts.
"We wish your Majesty long live, long live, long live!"
"The national destiny of Great Xia continues for thousands of years!"
"The new year begins with peace and prosperity for the country and the people!"
Qin Yun sat on the golden and majestic dragon chair, overlooking the most powerful people in the world.
With his eyes sweeping over, no one dares to disobey!
He saw Sima Tu for the first time.
This person can be considered a figure, with a tall build, a suit of armor, weather-beaten eyes, and an extraordinary palace.
But he had a bone in his head, and his first impression made Qin Yun unhappy.
"Everyone, get up."
"My dear friends, why don't you see the Commander-in-Chief of Sima? Could it be that my order didn't work and I didn't come to report on my duties?" Qin Yun hummed deliberately.
All the ministers looked at each other, is this the beginning of the reckoning?
Sima Tu, who was dusty and dusty, seemed to have just arrived in the imperial capital. He stood up, smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I am here."
"How dare I disobey the emperor's orders?"
Qin Yun glanced at him and pretended to be surprised: "Hey, the Governor has really arrived."
"I thought I was no longer in your eyes. It's really brilliant to have you here at this New Year's Eve banquet!"
The soft voice fell, but it was like thunder, and the beginning was a king explosion.
All the feudal ministers who held heavy troops had their skins exploded and their heads were sweating profusely!
hiss……!
Your Majesty’s words are truly heartbreaking!
What does it mean to have a great presence and what does it mean to be radiant? This man with a high hat probably doesn’t want to live anymore!
boom!
Sima Tu fell to his knees with a bang, his face was panicked, and he kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I don't dare!"
"You are the emperor, and I will always obey your orders as if they were gods!"
"Since I received the order, I immediately arranged for the handover of military affairs and prepared to go to the imperial capital to report my duties without any delay. Please don't believe others' lies!"
Qin Yun stood up, his dragon robe billowing, and he looked down and said, "Tell me, whose lies are they?"
"Is it General Xiao Jian, Prime Minister Gu, or one of them here?"
Sima Tu's face was still frightened. He raised his head and blurted out: "Your Majesty, this is the Ninth Prince Qin Yuan!"
Tai Chi Hall once again fell into a deathly silence. You can just say whatever you are sensitive to.
Qin Yun raised the corner of his mouth and said with interest: "What do you mean? What does it have to do with Lao Jiu?"
Sima Tu's eyes flashed and he spoke.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen originally intended to marry his daughter to the Ninth Prince, but unfortunately, news of the Ninth Prince's rebellion spread in the imperial capital. Wei Chen was frightened and no longer dared to mention this matter."
"On the contrary, the Ninth Prince once secretly asked Wei Chen to speak for him. He even threatened your majesty by supporting himself as a soldier!"
"Now His Majesty is dissatisfied with Wei Chen, and Wei Chen feels wronged. There must be a misunderstanding, and the only one who can slander Wei Chen is the Ninth Prince!"
"Wei Chen is loyal to the emperor and if he doesn't help him, he will hold a grudge and smear Wei Chen!"
The officials changed their colors.
Wei Zheng was dissatisfied: "Humph, this Ninth Prince dared to contact the border official during the period of confinement. What does this mean?!"
"It's just that there are so few rules. No wonder he hides the dragon robe privately!"
"Your Majesty, this must be dealt with seriously!"
Everyone was talking a lot and filled with indignation.
Qin Yun was very calm. Even if what Sima Tu said was true, it could not change the truth about his two faces.
This person is useless!
He waved his hand and Tai Chi Hall became quiet.
"Sima Aiqing, there is no need to be so panicked. I am just asking casually. Since you have no doubts, I will naturally believe you."
"Today is New Year's Eve. It's a good day. Please tell me something nice."
Zhenbei Wang Qikeng was the first to stand up and began to report his work.
Sima Tu was still kneeling where he was, not daring to get up.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that His Majesty is beating and punishing.
His old eyes flashed with suspicion and caution. Why didn't His Majesty get angry or deal with Lao Jiu even after he said this?
Is it really just because today is New Year’s Eve?
He doesn't believe it!
…
According to the procedure, after reporting their duties in the morning, all ministers must stay in the palace and wait for summons.
Qin Yun asked Eunuch Xi to take his place and lead many ministers to visit and play in the imperial garden.
And he sits in the Imperial Study Room, making many decisions.
Tonight, although everything is under control, after all, in such a big matter, if there is a slight mistake, the consequences will be huge.
"Your Majesty, the Jinyi Guards have come to report that everything is normal with Sima Tu, and the hundreds of people accompanying him are doing their job and there is no abnormality."
"Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince and the Eighth Prince have already begun to mobilize the recruitment forces in the house."
"Report, there are frequent unknown persons coming and going from the Three Provinces Pavilion."
Qin Yun listened to the report below and said calmly: "Very good, wait until they take action before closing the Internet cafe."
"yes!"
At this time, Mr. Feng came in and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, the concubine wants to see you, otherwise she will not attend today's New Year's Eve banquet."
Qin Yun frowned, this woman is really ungrateful!
"Let's go."
He stood up, thought about it and decided to go.
Today is a big occasion! If Dou Ji doesn't show up or makes some trouble, the ministers will be very critical.
Thousand Fortune Palace.
Qin Yun stepped forward, and all the maids and eunuchs stepped back.
A beautiful figure rushed towards her, it was Dou Ji.
Her face was still a little pale, and she begged: "Your Majesty, please let the Ai family see Lao Jiu again!"
"The Aijia have told you everything they know and they no longer pose any threat to you. What are you still afraid of?"
Qin Yun was a little angry.
He grabbed her with one hand and yelled: "Why should I be afraid?!"
"I won't let you see Lao Jiu, that's because Lao Jiu is now a lunatic. Do you know that he has arranged an assassin to kill you tonight!"
The sound fell to the ground, and the air suddenly solidified.
Dou Ji's charming face froze, and she shook her head suddenly: "No, it's impossible!"
"This kid won't do this. The Ai family has always been helping him and doing more for him than the other five children. He won't do this!"
Qin Yun said seriously: "No? My guards found something wrong last night."
"He secretly mobilized the forces of the world to assassinate you!"
"If you don't believe it, just wait and see the banquet tonight."
boom!
Dou Ji collapsed on the ground, crying, and her weak body looked even more helpless.
