Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote
Chapter 540: Big Job
Chapter 540: Big Job
The biggest problem now is not that someone is besieging Xia Lin. As for the official document he sent to others, it was not stamped by Li Yuan. He asked someone to forge it himself.
It was a crime of deceiving the emperor, but Li Yuan actually didn't care. What he cared about was that his Dragon Head Plain was gone. That was the auspicious place of the Li Tang Dynasty. Now when he looked over there, the ground was covered with rubble and stones, without even a slag left.
Li Yuan wanted to cry. If he wasn't the emperor, he would have cried loudly. The dragon head that once made him stand on it with great pride had now been razed to the ground. The winding dragon had been beheaded in one fell swoop. If he didn't kill Xia Lin, he would be sorry for this brave old Qin...
"It's okay to leave a little, even if it's just a little..."
Li Yuan muttered to himself. He bent down and picked up a piece of broken stone from Longshouyuan. Holding it in his hand, he felt filled with grief and indignation. The Dragon Head Stone was still warm, but his heart was already cold.
"Xia Daosheng, I swear I won't be a human being if I don't kill you."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Du Ruhui reminded in a low voice beside him.
Li Yuan came to his senses and looked back, suddenly remembering that he had come to see Longshou Hill with Xia Daosheng. When he said that just now, Xia Daosheng was less than ten feet away from him.
"Killing me is useless." Xia Lin didn't indulge him, and leaned against a boulder with his arms folded: "If you don't blow up this broken rock, you will never be able to build Xianyang in this lifetime."
"Why?" Li Yuan raised his head with tears in his eyes: "Please explain it to me clearly."
"You know what happened today is that someone wants to mess with me. Why do you say someone wants to mess with me? It's because there is too much money in building the new city. This city cost 100 million taels of silver, which is seven and a half years of taxes for the Wei Dynasty and nine years of taxes for the Tang Dynasty. Even if you don't embezzle this money, it can support a million people if you keep it in your hands. Your Majesty, do you understand?"
Li Yuan didn't say anything, but he still felt hatred in his heart at this moment.
"Okay, I'll take it as you understand."
Xia Lin pointed to the spot where Longshou Hill used to be with his hand behind his back and said, "If it's still there, Xianyang will be doomed to fail, because everyone in the world knows that Longshou Hill is the apple of your eye. As long as this piece of flesh is still there, there will be thousands of ways to make you unwilling to touch this piece of land."
"The city is fifty miles wide and long, and it is the largest capital city in the world. Your Majesty, we are not talking about whether the Tang Dynasty can last for thousands of years in the future, but does your Majesty really want to leave something for future generations? When people mention it, they have to say that the Tang Dynasty was as majestic as Mount Hua and as heavy as the Qinling Mountains? Your Majesty, let me ask you again, can the thing that called the Wei Dynasty full of holes be called the Tang Dynasty full of holes?"
"This……"
"Yes, or no." Xia Lin took a step forward: "Your Majesty, tell me seriously."
"Xia Daosheng...you are too bold, you are overstepping your authority." Du Ruhui was extremely nervous and kept reminding him.
"Where is this usurpation? I am asking this on behalf of the people of the world and for future generations. Where is this usurpation?"
Although Li Yuan was an emperor, he was actually shocked by Xia Lin's aura and took a step back. Looking at this boy who was almost his son's age, he was speechless for a moment.
"Your Majesty, you have the answer in your heart. I, Xia Daosheng, will not be a traitor to Wei, but I will not bring chaos to the world. Since I said I would help you with this matter, I must do it well. If Your Majesty is hesitant, then think about the greed of those people around you. Oh, the iron family is permanent, and the dynasty is changing. Now they support the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, because I have made their lives worse than death in the south. If Your Majesty fulfills their wish, guess what they will do? Your Majesty does not need to answer me, I know them too well, and I believe Your Majesty also knows them well. After all, before becoming emperor, Your Majesty was one of them."
After listening to this, Li Yuan stood there for a long time with his hands behind his back without saying a word. He thought that someone could gather tens of thousands of people to find fault today. If the situation was handled in the slightest way, it would be a civil uprising.
Thinking of this, Li Yuan suddenly scratched his head, but with the emperor's golden crown between him and him, he couldn't even scratch his head.
"Your Majesty, don't worry about this matter. Just pretend you didn't see it. I have my own way to deal with them."
Li Yuan lowered his eyes: "But you still need to be careful about your methods and don't be too reckless."
"Crazy, why not? Er Feng is also crazy. Your Majesty was even crazier than us when he was young. If you are not frivolous when you are young, why wait until you are old and frail to be frivolous?"
Li Yuan walked away in anger: "If you mess up again, I will kill you."
"No one can kill me." Xia Lin dodged back a bit: "No one in the world can kill me now."
Late at night, Xia Lin sat alone beside the dilapidated Dragon Head Hill, watching the symbol of imperial power shattered in his hands. He was so happy that he wanted to erect a statue here, the same one as the one at the head of Orange Island, but he was worried that the statue would be destroyed because of its unstable foundation. Finally, after much thought, he decided to build a library on the Dragon Head Hill.
An extremely huge library, a super library that can eclipse the so-called Damascus Library and make the legendary Alexandria Library look pale in comparison, and then use it to officially declare war on the powerful families.
At the same time, at the gathering of the Northern Family, everyone's face was gloomy. They thought they had done a big trick for Xia Lin, but they didn't expect that in the end they got a big shit.
He can easily handle changes of this magnitude, so what else can be done to him?
Everyone didn't know what to do. Some of them even fled from the south, but who knew that just after they fled from the south, this man would follow them like a shadow. "What kind of charm does this man have? The Emperor of Wei obeys his orders, and I said forget it, I came to the Tang Dynasty, but who knew that the Emperor of Tang also obeys his orders. What's going on? He is Su Qin, wearing the seals of the six kingdoms, right?"
"Haven't you figured it out yet? It's not about any particular emperor. He's targeting us. Wherever we go, he goes. If the emperor sees someone trying to take us down, no emperor will not indulge him, just like Shang Yang did back then."
"But Shang Yang was torn into pieces by five horses."
At this moment, a voice came from the corner. He crossed his arms and sneered, "That's because we are not dead yet. If I were dead, he would be torn into pieces. He is the knife that kills us."
"Mr. Yang, what should we do now? The Dugu family has long been in cahoots with him. We can't defeat him now."
The Yang Gong mentioned here is Yang Ying, the Duke of Hongnong County, also known as Yang Guang. Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo's second son, according to seniority, he should call Dugu Jiaye his aunt and Xiao Douya his aunt.
"You want to get him? He commands elite troops and has the power of life and death. He has no regard for the imperial power and has no one to cling to, so he is a lone minister. A lone minister is like a knife, so who would throw down the knife in his hand?"
Yang Guang chuckled, fiddling with a copper coin in his hand: "In my opinion, it would be better to cut off his firewood."
"Mr. Yang's intention is... to go north?"
Yang Guang stood up at this moment, put his hands behind his back and began to walk around: "Now that the grasslands are stable, they have been recuperating for some years, and they are now strong and powerful. But there is one bad thing, that is, after years of trade, the barbarians are less wild and less greedy. This is not good. In my opinion, why don't you think of a way to force some wildness out of them?"
"Oh! I have a plan. The Turks are now divided into two factions, the East and the West. One faction is ready to make a move in the Western Regions, but it is not strong enough to shake the royal court. But I think they are eager to return home. In addition, they were driven away by Xia Daosheng back then, and the hatred they have for him is not comparable to you and me."
"I'm not much better than them. I wish I could eat Xia Dao alive."
"This is not enough, far from enough. There are enemies in the east, south, west and north." Yang Guang unfolded his fan: "Why don't we ask him to attack everywhere? The world has been peaceful for too long. If there is no chaos, sooner or later we will catch them all in one fell swoop."
"That's easy. My Langya Wang Clan can go and talk to the Japanese. They are also worried right now."
"Well, then I will go west to look for that Turk."
"The south is difficult to deal with, so let's not touch it for now. But we can go and see what the chieftains in Lingnan are thinking. We can give them whatever they want, such as money, materials, and people." Yang Guang put away his fan when he said this: "And we should stop acting on our own. We need to do it all at once. If we fail this time, you and I will never be able to turn things around."
"Why not just send someone to kill him?" Someone asked, "Poisoning, framing, assassination, kidnapping, won't that work?"
"Don't speak, idiot." Yang Guang stretched out his fan and pointed, "Don't say I'm rude. Your method will only hurt others and yourself. Do you want to try again by cutting off the whole family in Jinling? Are you betting your life with him? He is a lone minister."
The phrase "a lone minister" made the place quiet again. The margin of error in assassinating him was too low, and he was extremely cautious, so there was no chance at all. He didn't even have servants at home, and he always lived in seclusion. This was probably the reason why the emperors of the two countries dared to use him.
"Then let's do it this way. If you have any other ideas, you can tell us now." Yang Guang looked around and said, "If you all have nothing to do, why not recreate the chaotic Three Kingdoms era? Each of you can take care of your own territory. As long as there is chaos, we can always keep it safe."
"Good idea, let's do it."
"Okay, spend money to buy peace, no problem."
"Alas, they came after me after only a few years of peace. These emperors are so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth."
On the second day after they dispersed, this powerful force that had influenced this land for thousands of years began to get busy.
Xia Lin's shortcomings were revealed at this moment. After all, the intelligence system was not fully built, and he was not aware of the intelligence of the conspiracy.
But after all, there is no wall that is impenetrable, and some information has leaked out.
"Brother, I heard yesterday that all the major families met in Chang'an City." Zhuo Heng muttered to Xia Lin while eating, "What do you think?"
"They are meeting? Isn't it to deal with me?" Xia Lin's eyes rolled: "But how are they going to deal with me? This group of people must have run out of tricks, right?"
