The Eunuch's Hand Covers the Sky

Chapter 101
Far away in the East Factory of the capital, Governor Liu Zhisheng held a handkerchief in his hand.A few lines of large characters were written in blood on the handkerchief.Li Haoming, who was wearing the official uniform of Jinyiwei Tongzhi, knelt on the ground, waiting for Liu Zhisheng's attitude.Also kneeling on one side was Lu Guanzhi who was wearing the official uniform of the head of the East Factory.It seems that everything has gone as Wang Zhen expected so far.

Liu Zhisheng looked at what was written in the blood book, and couldn't help shaking his head helplessly. Looking at Li Haoming who was kneeling underneath, he couldn't tell whether he was complaining or angry: "Our family also understands what Xiao Zhenzi means. Don't worry, the book says Of course, our family will inform the emperor about the things mentioned. But it’s true, just find a woman, how can we make these right and wrong?”

Li Haoming, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled all over, feeling that Liu Zhisheng was much easier to deal with than Wang Zhen, and said creakingly, "Return to Dugong, the Tianshan Sword Sect conspired to rebel, and Wang Gonggong discovered it early, so he sent troops to suppress it." I don't know what the intention is, so I have to use an official accent.

Liu Zhisheng rolled his eyes, and said a little funnyly: "There are no outsiders here, why is this so? Could it be that Xiao Zhenzi has enmity with the Tianshan Sword Sect? Even so, how did he get involved with the Five Poison Sect? It's a bit too willful and indulgent. "

Li Haoming raised his head, glanced at Liu Zhisheng secretly, and took a breath before he dared to speak the truth: "Since the Dugong wants to listen, I will naturally know everything I can say. The Wang Gonggong did have a deep relationship with the Tianshan Sword Sect. Why?" Even the lower officials don’t know about it. However, it was Prince Wang’s subordinates who rebelled against the Five Poison Sect, and Father-in-law was so angry that he made such a bad move. I hope Duke Du will calm down.”

Liu Zhisheng chuckled, flipped through the bloody book in his hand, and comforted him: "Although the little vibrator is a bit out of the ordinary, he is still remarkable. Don't worry, our family will tell the emperor about it. Let him feel at ease." Do it. Have no scruples."

Li Haoming looked at Lu Guanzhi and knew that the Dugong already had the intention of driving him away, but he still said boldly: "Excuse me for being bold, but I have one more word, which is what Wang Gonggong personally ordered the next official to tell the father-in-law." "Oh. If you have something to say, hurry up, our family will go to the palace to face the saint." Liu Zhisheng frowned, feeling a little impatient.Seeing this, Li Haoming hurriedly said: "The words that Wang Gonggong ordered are: the word 'military power'."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Zhisheng, who was a little impatient before, his eyes lit up, he smiled and nodded, and said in a satisfied tone: "Our family knows, Xiao Zhenzi is really hardworking." "Then... Subordinates leave."

After seeing Liu Zhisheng nodding in acquiescence with a smile, the two of Li Haoming immediately backed away respectfully.It wasn't until I left the room that I felt completely soaked from top to bottom.Lu Guanzhi also breathed a sigh of relief, and said bitterly with lingering fear on his face, "It's really scary. Hao Ming, don't call our family together after this kind of thing. It's really a test for this little heart."

Li Haoming immediately smiled wryly: "You think I like it, isn't this forced by my father-in-law? If this kind of errand is not handled well, it will be a catastrophe of beheading! I will not do this matter no matter what I say in the future." With a helpless face, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.They left Dongchang together, preparing to deal with the crying Dugu Cheng.

In the Imperial Palace, in the Royal Study Room.Today's holy majesty looked at the memorial in front of him with a sick face, with a fragile expression as if he would die in the next moment.And Liu Zhisheng stood aside, brewing herbal tea with his own hands.

For the first emperor, this emperor was very incompetent.His grandfather was also the founder of the country.Conquer the battlefield, save the country from danger.Save the people from water and fire.The Yuanmeng Dynasty was driven away.Rejuvenate the Han nation, which has survived life and death.conquered this vast empire.Daxing Dynasty.And his father, Emperor Taizong, under the influence of Taizu, gradually beat the Yuanmeng people from the border to the grassland.Expansion of territories and approval of territory has developed the Daxing Empire to an unprecedented extent.

The army is strong, and all nations come to court.It really has the reputation of the kingdom of heaven.But in his generation, it not only weakened the power of generals, but also took away military power.The use of the field division system makes soldiers inferior to each other from generation to generation.Gradually integrated into the people.The country's combat power declined rapidly.

But all these are just appearances, he watched the first emperor fight year after year with his own eyes.The surface is bright, but the inside is riddled with holes.The people have no money to hand over the expensive old money, and there are no males available at home.Bureaucrats only know how to fight wars and know nothing about people's livelihood design.As a prince, he knew that going on like this would only lead to the collapse of the Daxing Dynasty that had been built with great difficulty.

His teacher, former chief assistant Yang Shiqi once said: "The people are like water, and the world is like a boat. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it." So he, who ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, stopped all military use.Reuse talented and ambitious bachelors.The imperial examination system was improved, and the code and grades were revised.Also be wary of your uncle, King Ning's intentions.Everything is hands-on.Sleepless nights.Dare not have the slightest slack.

Finally, in just 35 years, the empire that was once strong on the surface and full of complaints from the people is now really strong.Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, does not close the door at night, and does not pick up lost things on the road.The world is peaceful.Even if he returned to Huangquan, he still had the face to say to the first emperor: "Ancestor, descendants have kept the family business."What he is really worried about now is not his gradually weakening body and his deteriorating spirit day by day.

But the few descendants below.Fortunately, God is merciful, although he is busy with official duties every day.But many sons were born.Headed by the eldest prince, there are thirteen princes counting down.The big ones have already participated in state affairs, but the young ones are still babbling.Among them, the eldest prince and the second prince are the most capable.The eldest prince is friendly, has no doubts about employing people, and gathers people's hearts together.The second prince is decisive and resolute in his actions, and he has the legacy of his ancestors.

As for who should be the emperor, he actually prefers the eldest prince.The second prince has a violent personality and loves war.The generals below are highly praised.But it didn't meet his original intention of cultivating life and reassuring the people.But the eldest prince is humble and pays attention to rest and recuperation.Written comments are also advisable.I also quietly decided on a candidate in my heart.But this matter should be done as soon as possible, he already felt that time was running out.Make proper arrangements for the second prince first, so as not to make a mistake and cause a war between the two factions, innocently affecting the common people in the world.That's the real crime.

The emperor was frowning, and Liu Zhisheng naturally saw it.Thinking that the time has come, he put down the teacup and said kindly: "Your Majesty, the tea is ready. It's already past lunch, let's eat something first to refresh our spirits." The emperor waved his hands, a little upset He said: "Xiao Liuzi, you have been with me for so many years. I don't know you yet? Now that the situation in the capital is serious, I can let you take time out of your busy schedule to come and see me. Come on, what's the matter?"
