It's not like Ning Chen hasn't thought about rebellion.
It's just that first of all, Ning Chen couldn't deal with Prince Jing, and secondly, Emperor Shun or Wu Zhao didn't give Ning Chen the basis for rebellion.
In the era of Emperor Shun, Emperor Shun was mediocre.
If Ning Chen really rebels, there may be many more people who respond than those who oppose him.
During the Wu Zhao era, although Wu Zhao never mentioned the matters in the court to Ning Chen.
But Ning Chen could more or less guess that the people in the court who opposed Wu Zhao were probably at a 50-50 split with those who supported Wu Zhao.
No matter how well Wu Zhao does, there will always be a group of people in the court who are unwilling to support Wu Zhao's stubborn existence because Wu Zhao is a woman.
Even if Ning Chen really rebels at this time, Wu Yu and Wu Yan might not support it with both hands.
When the time comes, it might be better to steal the chicken but lose the rice.
For Ning Chen, who has extensive experience in being stabbed in the back, Ning Chen really doesn't bother to do this kind of behavior that is both hugely dangerous and may be stabbed in the back at any time.
Moreover, Ning Chen felt that it was the most suitable for him to have Wu Zhao as emperor now.
After all, there is no shortage of old stubborns in the court, Wu Yu and Wu Yan are even more evil-minded, and there are also some noble and civilian opponents.
As long as Ning Chen always supports Wu Zhao, these people will continue to become his sources of [sycophants].
There is a stable way, and Ning Chen is certainly not willing to take risks.
Moreover, it is obvious that Ning Chen cannot defeat Prince Jing now.
…
After hearing Guo Xin's worries, Ning Chen said easily: "You don't believe that I will rebel.
I believe that Your Majesty will not believe that I would have objections.
If that's the case, what do I have to worry about?
Let other people say whatever they want to say.
Or do you think I'm afraid that others will say bad things about me behind my back?"
Worried that others will say bad things behind your back?
If Ning Chen was really worried about this, his relationship with the ministers would not be so bad.
Ning Chen looked at Guo Xin, who still looked worried, and comforted Guo Xin: "Lao Guo, don't worry about this, just do our own thing. As long as we don't want to rebel, we don't need to care what others say."
Seeing that he could not persuade Ning Chen, Guo Xin decided to find a way to explain Ning Chen on his own.
Although Ning Chen could tell that Guo Xin had the intention to explain for himself.
But Ning Chen didn't intend to dissuade Guo Xin.
Because Ning Chen felt that with Guo Xin's energy, he would not be able to find anyone with energy to defend himself.
If Guo Xin really finds someone with energy to defend himself, there will only be more people who are afraid and suspicious of Ning Chen.
If an official under Ning Chen has such energy, Ning Chen should be even more suspicious.
So no matter how you say this or look at it, it is a very beneficial thing for Ning Chen to collect [Nie] points.
Since it is a beneficial thing, it should not be blocked.
…
When the people arranged by Guo Xin rushed to deliver the credentials of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom to Fengjing.
The people in Fengjing were all celebrating such a hard-won victory crazily.
Don't look at the people in Fengjing. They are far away from the most beautiful place like Fengjing and far away from the four northern states.
But you must know that when they or their families need to do corvee work, they have the opportunity to go to the four northern states.
It goes without saying how high the mortality rate is when traveling to the four northern states.
And among their taxes, there is also a special tax, which is specially collected by the four northern states to deal with the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom.
The main reason for their celebration was because Wu Zhao had announced it to the world.
In view of the current situation in the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and the Wu Dynasty, this special tax was directly levied at half the rate.
Although not all have been cancelled, but the tax collection has been reduced by half, which is already an excellent thing.
The people of Fengjing celebrated with lanterns and colorful decorations, but things were not so peaceful in the DPRK.
Just as Guo Xin expected.
The impeachment against Ning Chen was almost all based on Ning Chen's arbitrary decision to form an alliance with the kings of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms.
Many people even raised it directly. Although Ning Chen solved the problem of the feudal kings' separation.
But Ning Chen himself is becoming the largest vassal king in the four northern states.
At the same time, they also said that Ning Chen had the ability to solve the problems of the vassal kings of the four northern states.
But now no one in the court has the ability to deal with Ning Chen, the vassal king.
What he said was truly heartbreaking.
There were people in the court who criticized Ning Chen, and naturally there were also people who spoke for Ning Chen.
For example, Wang Lin is Ning Chen’s loyal supporter.
"Your Majesty, I think there is nothing wrong with what the Champion Marquis did."
"The Champion Marquis agreed to form an alliance with the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. This inherently reflects the respect of our Martial Dynasty's status."
"The Champion once said that our Wu Dynasty is the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom."
"The national character of our Wu Dynasty is inherently higher than those messy demon kingdoms in the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom."
"If we really form an alliance with these messy demon countries in the name of our imperial court, wouldn't it be a surrender of our status?"
After refuting this alliance move, Wang Lin continued to refute Ning Chen's remarks about rebellion.
However, Wu Zhao did not let Wang Lin continue talking.
"What Wang Aiqing said is true. If our court really forms an alliance with them, how can it be shown that they were defeated. As a superior country, our Wu Dynasty should have the national character and spirit of a superior country."
After a pause, Wu Zhao changed the topic and said with a somewhat cold tone: "As for those who criticize the Champion Houhui for rebelling, drag them out and punish them for thirty years!"
After Qianniu Guard received the order, he immediately stepped forward and began to entrust people.
To be honest, Ning Chen is no longer above the imperial court, and the work of the Qianniu Guards has been reduced a lot.
Wu Zhao was too gentle with others, so he was not very willing to hit others.
It's been a long time since they went out to fight with someone.
The two Qianniu Guards who habitually walked towards Sun Kejian only came to their senses under Sun Kejian's angry gaze.
Then he glanced at Sun Kejian apologetically, and then turned towards the others.
Among those who criticized Ning Chen just now, there was no such person as Sun Kejian.
But these hateful Qianniu Guards have begun to acquiesce that as long as they play the game, they will definitely have themselves.
"These Qianniu Guards are really hateful!"
"No, it's not Qian Niuwei who is hateful, but Ning Chen!"
Sun Kejian thought angrily in his heart.
There is nothing we can do about this, after all, when Ning Chen is here.
Sun Kejian is a professional who was beaten.
All Qianniu Guards know that as soon as they hear a plan, they should go to Sun Kejian first, and there is a good chance that they will not go wrong.
If it's wrong, it's just a matter of habit.
Those in the court who had just criticized Ning Chen were all a bit stupid.
They really didn't expect that Wu Zhao didn't even want to listen to their careful reading, so he just rewarded them with boards.
But the more this happens, the more ferociously these people scream.
"Your Majesty, Ning Chen is a treacherous minister, your Majesty, please be careful!"
"Your Majesty, even if you have to chop off my head today, I must let your Majesty understand that Ning Chen is the biggest traitor and traitor."
After hearing this request, Wu Zhao said directly and coldly: "Since you want to behead your head, I will grant it to you. Pull it down and chop it off!"
Wu Zhao said with an expressionless face.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was stunned.
But for Qianniuwei who carries out the order, there is nothing to stop.
He directly dragged the dazed person out vigorously.
This time they moved to a place other than the one outside the door.
This time they were going to drag the person out of the Meridian Gate and behead him.
"Your Majesty, I was wronged!"
"Your Majesty, I was wronged!"
When he heard that Wu Zhao was really going to chop off his head, the minister who had just ignored all his advice also burst into tears and began to cry out for injustice.
But this time Wu Zhao was not moved at all, but made up his mind to chop off his head today.
Except for the voice of the person who cried out for injustice, there was no other sound in the court.
Those who were prepared to be dragged out to fight are now very cooperative with Qian Niuwei.
I was afraid that I would be dragged out slowly and my head would be chopped off next.
This makes Qian Niuwei's job much easier.
These people cooperated so well that Qianniuwei's dragging of people became much easier.
When the beheader was dragged away, all the people who made the chop were dragged away.
Wu Zhaocai said solemnly: "From today on, anyone who makes false claims about the rebellion of the Champion will be punished for treason and their entire family will be executed!"
Wu Zhao changed his previous gentle image and used the harshest punishment methods.
Wu Zhao is also telling everyone that I have no doubts about Ning Chen at all.
Wu Zhao's attitude towards Ning Chen made Wang Lin very relieved.
From Lin Dunxin's perspective, he still had some criticisms of Wu Zhao's attitude.
But Lin Dunxin didn't believe a word that Ning Chen would rebel.
For Lin Dunxin, who had already opened the Holy Path, he simply did not believe that Ning Chen would be greedy for imperial power.
If Ning Chen can open up the Holy Path of hundreds of schools, his future achievements and what he can obtain in the future will far exceed what the imperial power can bring him.
Therefore, Lin Dunxin felt that Ning Chen might not be able to like the throne.
Under Wu Zhao's strong force, the court meeting dispersed quietly.
After the disbandment of the dynasty, Wu Zhao asked Sun Ban to invite Wang Lin and Lin Dunxin to the Imperial Study Room.
After the two of them arrived at the imperial study, Wu Zhao also told Lin Dunxin and Wang Lin the information about the demon that Sun Banban had brought back.
As powerful ministers in the imperial court, the two of them knew something about demons.
Especially people like Lin Dunxin, who are well-read, know more about demons.
"Your Majesty, are you sure now that the demon has really revived?" Lin Dunxin asked Wu Zhao.
Wu Zhao shook his head and said: "We are still not completely sure about this matter. I invited you two here because I hope you can prepare in advance.
On the side of the Ministry of War and the Huwei Army, the Minister of War can seize the time and continue to recruit enough qualified Huwei Army reserve troops.
Mr. Lin, you must fully cooperate with me to stabilize the court.
This is definitely not the time to criticize each other.
Especially the criticism against Ning Chen, this is even more unacceptable."
Lin Dunxin had previously criticized Wu Zhao a little too much for returning to protect Ning Chen.
But now that he knew about the demon, Lin Dunxin felt that Wu Zhao was doing nothing to protect Ning Chen.
Now, the four northern states where Ning Chen is located have solved the cancer of Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom.
But a crisis greater than that of Ten Thousand Monsters could break out at any time.
If the demon really comes back.
The harm caused by that would be much greater than that of Ten Thousand Monsters Country.
Under such circumstances, criticizing Ning Chen would be tantamount to disturbing the country.
Ning Chen can only stabilize in the four northern states.
If Ning Chen loses the support of the people because of these unnecessary criticisms.
Then it will definitely not be Ning Chen who is really unlucky, but Wu Chao.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. From now on in the court, there will no longer be any voice criticizing the champion." Lin Dunxin assured Wu Zhao.
Fortunately, Ning Chen did not rely on words to collect [佞] points.
If he relied on words to collect [nice] points, Ning Chen would hate Lin Dunxin to death.
He directly prevented any voice from criticizing him from appearing in the imperial court.
Isn't this going to cut off Ning Chen's promotion path?
"Prime Minister Lin, have you seen Ning Chen's rules for recruiting talents from outside?" Wu Zhao suddenly changed the topic and changed the topic.
Lin Dunxin nodded and said, "I saw it."
"What do you think?" Wu Zhao continued to ask.
Lin Dunxin answered truthfully: "The standard is not low. Those who can truly meet the standard are basically truly talented people."
Wu Zhaodao: "Does Prime Minister Lin have any suitable disciples that he would recommend?"
After listening to Wu Zhao's words, Lin Dunxin understood Wu Zhao's thoughts.
Wu Zhao planned to take the initiative to accumulate some talents for Ning Chen.
Now that the demon thing has appeared.
At this moment, the standard of Baijia City should be raised to another level.
It's just a matter of recruiting talented people based on the conditions provided by Ning Chen.
This speed is really too slow.
After all, the northern border is too bitter and cold, and although Ning Chen's Baijia City is somewhat famous, it is still far behind Fengjing.
In a place like Fengjing where talents from all over the world gather, even if they see the recruiting posts in Baijiacheng, there are probably not many people who would be willing to go.
Lin Dunxin said: "I understand what your Majesty means. But I am worried that if I really do this, it may arouse the resentment of the Champion."
After a pause, Lin Dunxin added: "Furthermore, I feel that, taking advantage of the current champion and the prestige of his great victory, there might really be some knowledgeable people, some people who have the world in mind, and take the initiative to join the champion.
These people who took the initiative to defect were already high-spirited, coupled with the novelty of Baijia City and the influence of the champion.
Maybe it will be better than us taking the initiative to push back and block it."
Wu Zhao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "What Mr. Lin said is absolutely true. If that's the case, then let this matter take its course."
Finally, Wu Zhao added: "But Prime Minister Lin can help with some urging.
If there are officials in the capital who want to go to Baijiacheng.
The officials are not allowed to stop him and must let him go as soon as possible."
Lin Dunxin accepted the order and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will personally keep an eye on this matter."
…
In fact, a group of people in Beijing are already preparing to leave for Baijia City.
Liu Zhongzhi and a group of people from Baijia College have all packed up.
Today they are leaving for Baijia City.
The Baijia Academy here in Fengjing will only exist as branches of the Baijia Academy in other places in the future.
Liu Zhongzhi handed over the management of the hundreds of colleges in Fengjing to two trustworthy people.
Most of the others set off with Liu Zhongzhi.
"Liu Xuezheng." Before Liu Zhongzhi and the others could leave the city gate, Sun Feilan chased them from behind.
Liu Zhongzhi knew Sun Feilan.
But Liu Zhongzhi didn't know why Sun Feilan stopped them.
They are just relocating normally now, and they should not have committed any crimes against Dali Temple.
"Master Sun." Liu Zhongzhi said with a businesslike attitude.
If Ning Chen were here, he would definitely not have such a business-like attitude.
So Liu Zhongzhi really deserves to be single.
Seeing Liu Zhongzhi's businesslike appearance, Sun Feilan quickly explained: "Liu Xuezheng, I am no longer on duty at Dali Temple. Xuezheng doesn't have to be like this."
When Liu Zhong heard that Sun Feilan was no longer in Dali Temple, he became even more confused as to why Sun Feilan was trying to stop them.
Not being in Dali Temple means that Sun Feilan is no longer an official.
It is not illegal for officials to intercept them without authorization.
That is to say, Liu Zhongzhi knew that Sun Feilan and Ning Chen were friends. Otherwise, Liu Zhongzhi would have escorted Sun Feilan to report to the police by now.
"Liu Xuezheng, I am here to accompany you to Baijiacheng." Sun Feilan told Liu Zhongzhi the purpose of his trip.
When Liu Zhongzhi heard that Sun Feilan planned to go to Baijiacheng, he couldn't help but persuade him: "Baijiacheng is located in the four northern states. It is relatively bitter and cold. You may have to suffer a lot after going there. I advise the girl not to go."
Sun Feilan had already made up her mind, otherwise, she would not have resigned from her position at Dali Temple.
"Liu Xuezheng, I have already thought about all this. I just want to go to Baijiacheng to assist the champion. I hope that I can make a career under the champion."
Seeing that Sun Feilan had already made up his mind, Liu Zhongzhi stopped trying to persuade him.
"Since Miss Sun has already made up her mind, let's follow us on the road."
"Okay." Sun Feilan agreed, and then left Fengjing City with Liu Zhongzhi and the others.
In addition to Liu Zhongzhi and the others, there were some other people in Fengjing who also left Fengjing and prepared to go to Baijia City to join the command of the champion.
Let's see if we can make great achievements under the champion.
Most of them are young people.
After all, the champion Hou Ningchen is now a role model for young people all over the world.
He has already achieved so many achievements at such a young age, and he is indeed a role model for them to follow.
…
Sun Kejian, who was returning home from the next court, saw his wife with a bad expression from a distance.
Just when Sun Kejian was about to go out and hide, he was stopped by his wife.
"Sun Kejian, your daughter has been abducted, where are you going to hide?" Sun Feilan's mother threw the letter Sun Feilan left for the old couple to Sun Kejian.
Sun Kejian couldn't help but change his expression after reading the letter Sun Feilan left for them.
