Xijing.

The matter of Heliancheng Polite has come to an end, but the eyes here are still looking at Yangzhou.

It's very simple. Everyone understands that if the new tax reform in Yangzhou is successful, it will be implemented in other eleven states soon.

This is definitely a far-reaching event.

All the people in the world will be affected.

Therefore, every step of Xijing reform and every thing that happened was spread to Xijing.

Tonight, the fast horse enters Beijing, and the waves are stirring up.

When all the officials in Xijing heard that Li Fan actually took the Emperor's Sword overnight, killed hundreds of big family heads in Yangzhou City, and suppressed and destroyed the four clans in bloody suppression, everyone was shocked.

"Li Fan, the executioner and the butcher, actually killed so many people..." "It's scary, so scary. He is a demon who uses any means to do anything for his purpose!"

"This boy is too bloody. The sword of the emperor is in his hands. Who in the world can be afraid..." All officials were shocked! At this critical moment of tax reform, such a large-scale bloodshed suddenly occurred, which caused countless reactions.

Many officials were frightened! "... At this moment, those big clans invited Li Fan to a banquet, probably because they wanted to get a share of the tax reform, which made the killer have a murderous intention..." "Yes, this guy is too crazy. In this way, who in the world dares to stop him?"

"...Isn't he really afraid that the Lord will kill him?"

Countless people were talking about it, and this matter was like an undercurrent, spreading widely in Xijing.

"Hey, since the emperor ascended the throne, those who hold the Emperor's sword have been ruthless. Wu Tiangu and Li Youqiao both shocked the court. Now Li Fan has just begun in Yangzhou and has revealed his nature of killing..." An old official sighed.

Many officials were in a complicated mood, and Li Fan's behavior reminded them a lot, Wu Tiangu and Li Wen later... those bloody memories emerged.

Chunming Palace.

In recent days, Liu Huan has poor diet and a bad mood. He often has anger for no reason, as if to vent his depression. Every night, he would look for a few fresh maids in the palace.

Today, Eunuch Huang walked into Liu Huan's bedroom again. Eunuch Huang was very nervous because the news he brought this time came from Yangzhou and that person... Now his highness is allergic to the news over there... But he finally walked into the bedroom. Through the curtain, the old eunuch heard the sound of peace coming from there. The old eunuch lowered his head in inferiority. After the wind over there, he whispered: "Your Highness, there is news over Yangzhou."

There was silence behind the curtain. After a long time, Liu Huan's impatient voice came out: "Say, what's wrong?

All of us are dead, what else can happen over there?

!”

Eunuch Huang said: "Your Highness, Li Fan, in Yangzhou City, killed hundreds of heads of the clans in one night, killed four clans, and shocked the entire Yangzhou. The new tax reform policy has been pushed out."

"The eyeliner in the palace said that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood."

Hearing this, Liu Huan inside was so angry that he pushed open the curtain, jumped out, and said angrily: "Is my father foolish?

Li Fan acted so rebelliously and killed so many people! He didn't care about it, but instead felt in a good mood?

!”

He was very angry.

In his opinion, this is a complete partiality! Eunuch Huang's face looked ugly and said, "Your Highness, the emperor probably needs a cruel official like Li Fan. Only when he does things quickly and fiercely..." "Nothing is said!"

Liu Huan shook his head and said, "Send me an order to find someone. I will impeach Li Fan tomorrow. From today on, as long as there is a glimmer of chance, I will kill him. I don't believe that he will really always be favored by my father!"

Eunuch Huang retreated.

...The Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Teacher, Li Fan is too fierce and cruel. In a blink of an eye, the four clans were destroyed..." Li Wen's student Chen Jiming's face was a little complicated.

“Violent?

cruel?"

Li Wen smiled and said, "Reform is a matter of life and death, and the only morality is to succeed, the king will succeed, the king will fail."

"But teacher, aren't you worried that a vicious man like Li Fan is in power?"

Chen Jiming said worriedly: "The government bureau in the world is the result of your hard mediation and balance for decades. All parties in the world have finally settled. Once this variable of Li Fan really becomes strong, it will inevitably have an impact on the government bureau..." "Now he is just an inspector in Yangzhou, and he dares to massacre the large clan. If he really gains power in the court, aren't you afraid that he can butcher the knife against the officials in the world?

Now that foreign enemies are eyeing each other, the crown prince in the court is still uncertain, the political situation is about to break out... I am afraid that people like him will not be able to tolerate trouble."

Li Wen was silent for a little while.

It’s been almost thirty years... In the past thirty years, I don’t know how many scenery has changed in this court.

Wu Tian was once alone, the world was once in a state of panic, and people were once dispersed... But along the way, although the mountains and rivers have not yet recovered, the country and country are still peaceful.

Over the past twenty years, he has spent countless efforts to maintain the overall situation of the court.

However, after silence, Li Wen slowly raised his eyes and said, "This situation has been twenty years... twenty years, has the country and country revived?"

"Advance, you cannot restore mountains and rivers; retreat, you cannot enrich the country and the people.

This is a deadlock.”

"Don't you think the country of Daxi is too calm?

Compared to those Hu people who are born to advocate martial arts and have a strong rank, the Great Xi Kingdom lacks some things..." "The emperor is far-sighted and is definitely not a trapped king. Perhaps this is the reason why he released the sword..." He couldn't help but smile and said, "Swords are used to kill people. The Emperor's Sword, so it's time to kill more people. A sword that does not kill people is worse than a grass on the roadside."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiming fell into thinking... and at this moment.

A palace with few figures.

It was late at night, but the lights in one of the bedrooms had not yet gone out.

A young man was still studying hard with a book in his hand. It was late at night and he couldn't help but yawn for a long time.

When the lights were about to go out, the door was suddenly pushed open, and an old man in garlic walked in.

The old man was in a dusty state, and it was winter at this moment, but his clothes were so thin.

His face was rosy, as if the cold outside had not affected him at all.

Seeing the old man, the young man who was studying hard at the desk stood up, with a happy look on his face, stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Liu Jing greets the teacher!"

The old man smiled and helped him up, saying, "Have you had any major events in the court recently?"

Liu Jing said: "The most eye-catching thing is Yangzhou. Li Fan became the lord of Meilin and killed the Demon Cult Peacock King. He is now implementing the new tax reform policy with Lin Jianshen."

"The news just arrived tonight. He used iron-blooded methods to kill hundreds of heads of the clans in Yangzhou City, which aroused the anger of the clans. Then, he drew the black armored cavalry and slaughtered all the four clans."

The old man couldn't help but frowned slightly and said, "Oh?

This kid, after reading his two articles that shocked Xijing, he already thought he was not simple. Now, he is indeed outstanding..." "Teacher, what's going on the front line?"

Liu Jing continued to ask a question.

The old man said: "Next year, when the spring grass sprouts and the Hu people and the horses are fat, the war will rise."

When Liu Jing heard this, his face changed slightly and said, "The Hu people captured the late emperor and the ministers of the previous dynasty for more than 20 years, but they had never asked Daxi for any benefit. Now that the war is rekindled, I'm afraid the late emperor and the others will be in danger..." The old man patted Liu Jing on the shoulder and said, "So, your task is very heavy."

"In my speculation, Emperor Jianye has implemented the new policy and people's hearts are unstable. In order to avoid turmoil, he should also make a crown prince next year at the latest."

"Your mother died early and has the least power in the court. You have to take every step of the way. It is best to find a strong support."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jing fell into thought and said, "My mother is a barbarian, and the minister in the court naturally looks down on me..." "In the past, but now not all ministers qualified to participate in this competition are people with racial opinions."

The old man spoke.

Liu Jing was surprised and raised his eyes and said, "Who?"

The old man patted his shoulder and said, "Li Fan, Yangzhou."

...The next morning.

All officials gathered and the emperor came to the court.

The incident in Yangzhou was reported, and many ministers in the court impeached Li Fan! "Master, Li Fan killed such a random way, and people in the world must think that the court is unkind. What he destroyed is the hearts of the people! I believe that he must remove his post and punish him to calm the anger of the people of Yangzhou!"

The first person to attack was a civil servant, one of the three censors of the dynasty, Gu Mingcheng! He was heartbroken and said, "Please ask the emperor to punish Li Fan for his crime!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

Many ministers agreed.

However, the emperor just sneered and said, "Come here, drag Gu Mingcheng out of the Meridian Gate and take the blame for the ten major boards!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingcheng's face changed drastically and he said in panic: "Master, I am not guilty!"

Emperor Jianye said coldly: "The people whom Li Fan punished were all guilty, and the people of Yangzhou were all happy, but you were talking in front of the hall, saying "the anger of the people of Yangzhou." What was your intention?

He dares to argue and blame the top ten boards!"

The emperor was very direct! Hearing this, all officials changed their qualities! At this moment, they suddenly understood that Li Fan dared to do that in Yangzhou, and his greatest confidence was probably the emperor! "I'm sending an order to reward Li Fan with ten jars of tribute wine, two thousand gold!"

"From then on, those who dare to slander Li Fan for this matter will be punished for being deceived by the emperor!"

At this time, Emperor Jianye spoke again! He slandered Li Fan and deceiving the emperor! As soon as this statement came out, all officials were terrified.

...When the court was dispersed, all officials were silent.

"Hey, the Lord is letting us know that no one can stop the tax reform!"

"Yes, the bigger the thing Li Fan does, the more the Lord protects him, the more he can prove how determined the Lord is..." "If Li Fan is a butcher, then the Lord is the one who gave him a knife..." "The tax reform will be a foregone conclusion! I will not be able to persuade the Lord to change his strings again in the future."

After leaving the palace gate, all officials started to discuss.

The impact of a massacre in Yangzhou is so far-reaching.

From then on, the people in the world knew about Emperor Jianye’s determination to innovate! That was desperate!… “Right Prime Minister, you are old and keen eyes. Tell me, did you see through the saint’s heart, so you did it on purpose and sacrifice yourself so that the saint can establish your authority?”

Before Li Wen got on the carriage, an old official who knew each other suddenly asked a question.

Li Wen glanced at the official in surprise and said, "I think you thought too much... Some people... are just simple stupid..." After that, he got on the carriage and left.
Chapter completed!
