Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 878 Dingchao Hall

Zhao He's regicide happened so hastily that no one was prepared.

After the courtiers in the palace formally met with the new monarch Vientiane, Shan Yin had already perished.

Half a day later, after discussing with the ministers about Wan Shan Yin's funeral, Wan Xiang came to his mother's bedroom, only to find that Wan Sa was wearing a neat queen's robe and lying safely in the jade coffin and committed suicide.

Beside the jade coffin, a suicide note was left for Wanxiang, the words were brief, and apart from exhorting Wanxiang, the only request was to order Wanxiang to bury himself with Shan Yin.

Wansa's life is quite legendary.

When she was young, she conceived due to the feeling of "Nanming Lihuo", and she was ridiculed by gossip and white eyes. Later, Fuji Tailai met the love of her life, Shanyin. Since then, she has gathered thousands of loves in one body, which is a good result.

Wan Xiang was extremely sad in his heart. Although he had noticed the death in her mother's eyes as early as the first meeting, she did not expect this day to come so soon.

Due to the critical situation of the country, everything about Shan Yin and Wan Sa's funeral is kept simple.

In just three days, the death of the monarch Shanyin and the succession of the new monarch Wanxiang have been settled.

After discussion by the ministers, Shan Yin was given the posthumous title of 'King Min Ming'.

The so-called 'min' means that the country and individuals suffered catastrophe when they were in power, and this posthumous title has the meaning of sympathy.

In the main hall of Suzaku.

Vientiane sat on the throne, she did not change the monarch's gown, but still wore her own gown that was billowing with golden red flames.

It looked like a ball of flames was surging above the throne.

The ferocious ghost face was placed on the armrest, and Vientiane looked at the more than 800 courtiers standing awe-inspiring below.

The day Zhao He killed the king was not a grand court meeting, so only some courtiers who needed to discuss state affairs were in the hall.

Today is the first big court meeting after the new king ascended the throne, and all the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty will go to the palace to face the king.

Wanxiang first ordered the ceremonial officer to recount the things that Shan Yin entrusted before his death, and then passed the imperial decree passed by Shan Yin to Vientiane for all the ministers to read one by one.

After the Chinese and military officials in the hall bowed to pay respects, Wanxiang turned to Taiwei Jinsu.

"Taiwei, Zhao He entered the palace to kill the king that day, why no one can stop him?"

In the Kingdom's Sangong Jiuqing system, the "Taiwei Mansion" is in charge of the Kingdom's generals.

"Lang Zhong Ling" is in charge of the imperial guards, and "Wei Wei" is in charge of the imperial guards. These two positions are under the jurisdiction of the "Taiwei Mansion".

When Zhao He killed the king that day, Wei Wei Su Yuanqian and Zuo Yuxiang, the head of all officials, were killed by Zhao He, so at this moment Wanxiang directly questioned Taiwei Jin Su.

Jin Su stepped out of the line of courtiers and replied solemnly:

"Your Majesty does not know that four months ago, Shi Gandang, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, was seriously injured in a sneak attack on the northern front.

After the news came back, 'King Minming' reported the matter to Qiaozu in the ancestral temple, and then Qiaozu dispatched elites from the capital to fight on the northern front.

For Qiao Zu's safety, most of the elite in the palace were taken away by Qiao Zu, which led to the fact that no one was his opponent when Zhao He rampaged in the Suzaku Hall three days ago. "

After a short pause, Jin Su continued:
"The battles on the western and northern fronts were tense, and all those capable of fighting in the DPRK and China rushed to serve on the two fronts.

Nowadays, the military generals of the Manchu dynasty are full of old people, and there is not even one who has cultivated the "Three Meridians and Seven Wheels Concept" to the seventh level.

I thought it would be safest to have layers of protection inside the palace, but Zhao He suddenly conspired against him and started killing in the palace, causing 'King Minming' and many courtiers to be brutally murdered.

This is the fault of the 'Taiwei's Mansion', the minister is in charge of the 'Taiwei's Mansion', but he is unable to stop the tragedy, and he has no face to stand above the court.

I beg your Majesty to beg for the bones, and I would like to return to the army! "

As Jin Su said, she took off her hat and bowed to Vientiane.

Immediately afterwards, more than 200 courtiers walked out of the official queue, took off their official hats one by one, held them in their palms, and spoke loudly.

"I'm begging for the bones, I implore the old man!"

The expressions of all the officials in the rest of the hall changed drastically. Taiwei Jinsu is about to resign!
Now that the country is in critical condition, Vientiane has just ascended the throne, so he doesn't know much about the big and small affairs in the DPRK and China.

In addition, Zuo Prime Minister Yuan Jiang and dozens of courtiers were killed by Zhao He, dozens of important positions were vacant, and even the daily operation was sluggish.

At this time, the DPRK and China need veteran officials to come forward to stabilize the situation.

Taiwei is one of the three princes. After Yuan Jiang died, he was the head of all officials in the court.

But the Taiwei suddenly proposed to resign at this moment, which inevitably made the ministers suspicious.

Some courtiers suddenly remembered the scene when Taiwei Jin Su was kicked out of the Suzaku Hall by Wanxiang three days ago, and they realized something in their hearts.

Perhaps the Taiwei used this to show his authority to Vientiane.

Facing the resignation of Taiwei Jin Su and the more than 200 generals, Wanxiang stretched out his hand and covered his face with the hideous ghost mask on the armrest.

In an instant, an invisible pressure surged into the hearts of all the officials in the hall.

Vientiane said calmly:
"Who else wants to resign, stand up together!"

The voice as clear as a phoenix's cry echoed in the hall.

All the officials in the hall quietly looked around, but no one spoke again.

Vientiane waited for a while, seeing that there was no response under the throne, he said in a concentrated voice:

"Since the ministers believe that they are unable to undertake state affairs, I do not want to force them.

Your request."

Vientiane paused slightly, and said in a sonorous and forceful tone:
"That's it!"

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty turned pale with shock.

These are more than 200 courtiers of the Jiuqing. Once these people resign, there will be problems with the normal operation of the kingdom.

Even the more than 200 officials who resigned looked up at Vientiane in disbelief.

I and others don't really want to resign!
"Your Majesty! Please think twice!"

"Your Majesty! No!"

As soon as Vientiane's words fell, more than a dozen officials came out to declare to Vientiane urgently.

Two golden-red rays of light flashed across the eyes under the ghostly face of Wanxiang, and a scorching aura immediately appeared in the hall.

The ministers who were persuading felt the pressure and immediately kept silent, and the noisy hall immediately fell silent.

After a while, Vientiane's clear voice sounded again.

"Follow the usual order!"

Xin Chuan, the head of the Jiuqing's "Feng Chang Ling", stood out and saluted.

"The minister is here!"

"Feng Chang Ling" is in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple, officials are promoted and dismissed, and "Li Guan" belongs to the "Feng Chang Ling" subordinates.

Vientiane said:

"Designation!
The official position of the resigned official today will be temporarily held by the deputies of the various ministries and divisions he belongs to. "

Xin Chuan's expression turned serious, and he bowed to accept the order.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Vientiane said again:

"Ting Wei Mansion!"

This time, there was no one in the hall to answer, but the eyes of all the officials in the court were all on those who came out to ask for resignation.

'Tingwei's Mansion' belongs to the family of generals, and at this moment the heads of the three divisions of 'Tingwei's Mansion' are all resigning.

Seeing that no one answered in the hall, Wanxiang spoke again:

"Where is the imperial censor?"

Doctor Yushi is also one of the three lords. His main duties are to manage books and memorials, and to supervise civil and military officials. He has always obeyed the orders of the monarch.

Hearing Vientiane's summons, Zhong Wei, the imperial historian, stepped out of the queue and said loudly:
"Chen is here!"

Vientiane said:
"Check out the officials who resigned today, send them back to their hometowns, give plaques to show their achievements, and punish the rest according to the law!"

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the hall felt tense.

'It's going to change! '

Only from this purpose of Vientiane, we can see Vientiane's behavior style.

"Plop. Plop."

More than a dozen officials who resigned collapsed to the ground.

The more the country is in danger, the more opportunities there are to help.

The 'Suzaku Kingdom' has fought endlessly with the 'Lihun Mountain' and the 'Wild Soul Tribe' for decades, and it does not know how many resources are allocated every day.

As officials in charge of the general system, they are the easiest to manipulate.

A cold light flashed in Zhong Wei's eyes, and he said in a deep voice:
"Where are the guards, quickly take the person who resigned from here!"

"Here—!"

The former head of the imperial guards in the inner court had been dismissed due to the guard's dereliction of duty. The new head of the inner court guards responded with a slight wave of his hand.

Sixty inner court guards with full armor and full armor rushed into the hall immediately, and led more than 200 resigned officials with panic faces out of the Suzaku hall.

Jin Su left with a group of officials with an ugly expression, her heart sank to the bottom.

These people were bewitched, threatened, and lured by him, so they will advance and retreat with him today.

If you can force the new king Wanxiang to retreat, the power in the court will naturally be in your hands in the future, but now that the catastrophe is imminent, how can those who are threatened by him not be thrown into trouble.

Jin Su knew that he might be doomed.

Not only did Jin Su understand this point in her heart, but all the officials in the palace could see it clearly.

After more than 200 courtiers were taken away, silence was restored in the hall.

The minds of the courtiers in the palace changed rapidly, and even their bodies and postures became somewhat respectful.

Wanxiang has no management experience, but whenever something happens, he always knows what he should do in his heart.

This is true both in the military and at this moment.

It's like having experienced these things or being taught how to deal with them.

But at this time, what she was thinking in her heart was not the ministers in the palace.

'Practitioners have strong individual strength, and their mentality tends to be the jungle of the jungle, and will only obey the management of those who are stronger than themselves.

Even if Zhao He's rebellion did not break out now, the same thing would happen in the future.

Moreover, practitioners do too much damage to ordinary people, and can easily cause mass destruction.

Perhaps practitioners should be gathered together for separate management. "

At this moment, in view of Zhao He's rebellious behavior, a strange thought suddenly appeared in Vientiane's heart.

She felt that all practitioners, regardless of their level of cultivation, were separated from the normal system of the kingdom and managed independently.

The method of practice should also be restricted and cannot be taught at will.

Ordinary people are governed by ordinary people, and practitioners should be governed by practitioners.

A distinction should be made between the two, perhaps this is more conducive to the management of the kingdom.

There are so many practitioners in the world, and it is not easy to bind these people together alone.

Besides, Vientiane just had a vague idea in his mind at this time, without any specific plan or strategy.

Therefore, this matter can only be implemented after the war in this world is resolved.

What Wanxiang didn't know was that the world of practice gradually evolved naturally out of this situation.

Because of different concepts and needs, each practice sect was born from this.

No matter in the period when Shan Ding was in power, or when Shan Yin was in power, the 'Prime Minister's Mansion' has been in charge of officials and civil servants, and the 'Taiwei Mansion' has been in charge of armaments and military affairs.

To impeach all officials and supervise the world, it sounds like the "censor" has great powers and responsibilities.

But in fact this right comes from the monarch.

In the past, because the 'Prime Minister's Mansion' and 'Taiwei's Mansion' were in charge of civil and military officials, sometimes even the monarch could not do things independently, let alone the 'Censor'.

But at this moment, seeing the terrified eyes of all the officials looking at him, Zhong Wei, the official censor, suddenly felt elated.

The role of 'Censor' is originally a tentacles that embody the will of the monarch. It is like a dog raised by the monarch, and he can bite whoever is asked to bite.

But the premise is that the monarch must be strong and be able to make decisions for the 'censor', otherwise, he can only bark a few times and cannot form a deterrent.

Now it is different, Vientiane acted tough and decisive, and abolished the "Taiwei Mansion" system in one fell swoop, which made the officials tremble and established authority.

The resulting effect is that the 'censor' system suddenly has a deterrent effect.

And Vientiane was able to control the court so easily, in fact, there was also an element of luck.

It's not that the previous monarchs didn't want to take power in their hands, but they couldn't.

Don't look at the "Prime Minister's Mansion" and the "Taiwei's Mansion" usually tearing each other down and attacking each other, but as long as they encounter threats from the monarch, the two will immediately form an alliance.

One of the important reasons why Vientiane was able to quickly control the court was that Prime Minister Yuan Jiang was suddenly killed by Zhao He. Three days was not enough for the civil servant system to choose the leader of his line.

Otherwise, it is not just the "Taiwei's Mansion" that is exerting pressure on Vientiane today.

If the 'Prime Minister's Mansion' and the 'Taiwei's Mansion' attacked Vientiane at the same time.

Under the coercion of the crowd, in order not to be isolated, the courtiers outside the two major factions could only follow the trend and exert pressure on Vientiane.

No matter how powerful Vientiane is, it is impossible to replace all the ministers of military affairs in North Korea and China.

The main hall of Suzaku was empty and silent, and all the courtiers were changing their mentality.

After a while, "Feng Chang Ling" Xin Chuan scanned the surroundings and found that he was the one with the greatest power and responsibility at this time.

Among the Sangong and Jiuqing, Prime Minister Yuan Jiang was murdered, Taiwei Jin Su was expelled, the royal doctor Zhong Wei had no right to interfere in the government affairs, and there was a gap in the top management of the kingdom.

When the Sangong could not reflect the power and responsibility, "Feng Chang Ling" was the head of the Jiuqing, and some things could only be proposed by him.

Thinking of this, Xin Chuan bowed his hands and saluted the monarch.

"Your Majesty, the battle on the northern front is now critical, and the army of 'Lihun Mountain' may capture 'Northern Bow City' at any time. How to deal with this matter, please Your Majesty make an early decision."

Wanxiang's thoughts were pulled back by Xin Chuanzhi's words, and said calmly:

"How difficult is this, just send troops to support!"

All the ministers in the palace felt a little unbelievable when they heard Wanxiang's words.

Xin Chuan forcibly suppressed the inappropriate words in his heart, and said:
"Your Majesty has just returned from the Eastern Front, so he may not know enough about the situation in the Kingdom."

After a short pause, he continued:
"Except for the East Ten Battalion in charge of His Majesty, the Kingdom has no soldiers to dispatch."

A golden-red light flashed in Wanxiang's eyes, and he said:

"The kingdom still has hundreds of millions of people, how can it be said that it can't dispatch a single soldier?"

Tian Cang came out and said:

"Your Majesty, the treasury is empty, and there is no money to pay for recruiting troops."

Wars are fought over resources and military power.

No money, no soldiers, this is the first problem that Vientiane encountered after succeeding the monarch.

Wanxiang looked at the courtiers below and said:

"How can there be no money and no soldiers? There are plenty of resources available to the people."

All the ministers in the palace felt their hearts jump when they heard this.

'Is this going to collect resources from the people?
This is a sign of subjugation! '
