Chapter 678: Quelling the Rebellion
Listening to the words of the old blind man, Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly, what the old blind man said is indeed reasonable, in the previous thousands of years, with the gradual loosening of the seal, the increasing aging of the four divine beasts of the four directions, the four gods and demons that were sealed ran out a lot, before the first battle of the mountain hit the remnants of the demon clan, and the first battle of the East China Sea severely damaged the divine race, and today's battle, almost completely wiped out the four remnants of the four realms that took advantage of the void, which is very beneficial to the human race, at least in the next few months, you can prepare for the war with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about the four realms will secretly cause chaos and wait for the opportunity to destroy.
"Sir, in your opinion, has the Protoss been involved in today's affairs?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
The old blind man thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Presumably not, those who support Wu Yan and Wu Shaojun should be the demon clan, and the reason why they fake the name of the god clan is to bluff and provoke trouble." ”
"I think so too," Wu Zhongyuan said, "Although the Protoss has a grudge against us, they think very highly of themselves and disdain to join forces with the other three realms. ”
"Holy Sage," the old blind man nodded and said, turning the conversation around, "During the period when the Holy Lord left the court, Wei Chen overstepped his authority and made many decisions in order to stabilize the overall situation, and also made many requests to borrow the mixed Yuan Ding......
Without waiting for the old blind man to finish speaking, Wu Zhongyuan interrupted him, "As long as I have not insulted the national body, I will not change the decisions made by Mr., and we will fulfill the things that Mr. promised one by one." ”
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, the old blind man was relieved, secretly relieved, and hurriedly bowed down to thank him, the second-in-command is not good, although the second-in-command is in charge when the boss is not there, but the decisions made must adhere to the boss's governing philosophy, if it goes against the grain, the boss will be corrected after he returns.
In addition to thanking Wu Zhongyuan for his trust and respect, the old blind man was also a little frightened, because although Wu Zhongyuan would not change the decision he made during this time, the promise he promised added a premise, that is, not to insult the national body, the reason why Wu Zhongyuan added such a premise was undoubtedly because he and Wu Di made their own decisions that day, trying to induce him to kill Jiang Zheng and Li Tai, and Wu Zhongyuan has always been haunted by this matter.
"Sir, how is the farming work this year?" Wu Zhongyuan was most concerned about the food issue.
The old blind man said, "Tuo Sheng Shang Hongfu, this year's wind and rain are smooth, 100 days of rice and purple potatoes have been harvested for a season, the growth of ordinary millet is also very good, although some of the fields in the walled city have been burned and destroyed by the enemy, the loss is not large, the walled city, the city and the siege of the city now have caves to store grain, according to Weichen's estimate, to the autumn and winter, the Central Plains grain storage should be available for the Quartet camp to consume for two years. ”
"Sir, it's been a hard time for you to be away. Wu Zhongyuan said.
"This is the blessing of the Holy Lord, and the hard work of all the ministries, how can the micro-ministers take credit?" said the old blind man.
While the two were talking, Wan Shanhong came from afar.
Seeing Wan Shanhong, Wu Zhongyuan greeted him with a smile, and just when he was thinking about how to thank Wan Shanhong, Wan Shanhong smiled and said, "What do you want to say to me?"
"Haha," Wu Zhongyuan said with a smile, "I'm thinking about how to thank you, I'm always working on you back and forth, and I'm very uneasy." ”
"Is it just uneasy? There is no reward?" Wan Shanhong asked with a smile.
"Whatever you want, as long as I have it, you can't do it. Wu Zhongyuan also smiled.
Wan Shanhong pouted and smiled, "It's good to be back, you have too many things to deal with, I won't make trouble for you here, by the way, I forgot to congratulate you on becoming a Tailing and enjoying immortality." ”
"Haha, Tongxi, Tongxi," Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile, "This is gone? Don't you want to know where I have been for more than half a year?"
"I don't want to. Wan Shanhong smiled and shook his head, "Hurry up and get busy with you, I'll leave here, you don't have to worry about me." ”
"Don't be busy, stay for a day, and leave tomorrow. Wu Zhongyuan retained.
Wan Shanhong shook his head, and instead whispered to Wu Zhongyuan about the location of the Bagua Qianyang formation.
Wu Zhongyuan remembered quietly, and then asked, "How did they get another set of gossip Qianyang, Yanyun Mountain is fine, right?"
"It's okay, the gossip Qianyang was deceived by them instead of robbed," Wan Shanhong shook his head again, "Their purpose is not to slaughter the human race, but to enslave the human race, unless it is really necessary, these evil demons will not kill people indiscriminately." ”
Wu Zhongyuan still wanted to talk to him, those foreign aid who were searching for the remnants of the rebel party came back, Wu Zhongyuan groaned slightly, thinking that he would not have a chance to talk to Wan Shanhong in detail in a short time, so after thanking her, he let her leave first.
After Wan Shanhong left, Hu Tong also came to say goodbye to him.
Wu Zhongyuan had a very good impression of Hu Tong, so he said to stay, "Brother Hu has a lot of hard work to help him, and he has his own bear to stay for a few days, and let me do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord." ”
"I don't need you to do your landlord's friendship," Hu Tong waved his hand and said, "I heard that you have a lot of dark iron weapons, if you don't want to go, give me one." ”
"What do you want?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.
"Nonsense, of course, sticks. Hu Tong said.
"Okay, you go around, come back to me later, and I'll give you one. Wu Zhongyuan said.
Hu Tong was overjoyed and turned to go.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan and the old blind man standing at the gate of the palace, a group of foreign aid came to visit Wu Zhongyuan, these people came from different places, most of Wu Zhongyuan didn't know each other, everyone signed up, and he couldn't remember so many names, but he knew very well why these people wanted to be close to him, undoubtedly what the old blind man promised them before.
After most of the people returned, Wu Zhongyuan raised his breath, solemnly thanked everyone, and then expressed his attitude, no matter what promises the old blind man made to them, he would respect the old blind man's decision and repay them one by one.
Everyone was waiting for his words, and when they heard him say this, they put their hearts at ease, and after greetings, they left one after another.
Wu Zhongyuan symbolically retained, everyone knew that he was going to clean up the aftermath, so they retreated, Qiu Yun did not come to meet Wu Zhongyuan, but said goodbye, it came here this time to fulfill the promise, and the recovery of the fish and stone turtle achieved its goal.
Sending away all kinds of foreign aid, Wu Zhongyuan summoned his people to go to the Zhongtian Temple to discuss politics.
The throne dragon chair and table table are still the same as when he left, this seat is his, even if he is not in the court, no one dares to usurp and occupy it.
After everyone sat down, Wu Zhongyuan stood up, looked around at everyone, and turned to say with a straight face, "You must know that the nine-leaf green lotus, the nine-leaf green lotus was not found by me, but was given to me by a dying person, the person who gave me the nine-leaf green lotus once asked me to help take care of a person whose original god was damaged, this person's situation is relatively special, the demon clan has the intention to occupy this person's body, and has been peeking from near his residence, because for some reason, I can't bring it to Youxiong, I can only protect and wait from his residence, so these days have been delayed." ”
Wu Zhongyuan paused a little when he said this, and everyone in the audience heard his words and nodded, in fact, the emperor didn't need to tell his courtiers where he went and what he did, Wu Zhongyuan explained to them that the situation was respectful to them.
After a short pause, Wu Zhongyuan continued, "If someone thinks that I have lost a big loss because of a small one, it doesn't matter if it's serious, but it's okay to say it. ”
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Zhen got up from his seat and said, "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, although the saint is the Yellow Emperor of the Central Plains, he is also a entrusted person, and he should be true to his words and fulfill his promises." ”
Although Wu Di is a harem, he supervises the household department, and this time he is also above the court, Jiang Zhenyan stopped, Wu Di got up, "The nine-leaf green lotus obtained by the saint is not for private use, but is given to me and others, and we are promoted to cultivation, so the matter of loyalty to the saint is not a private act, but for the country and the public." ”
After the two of them spoke, everyone agreed.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly, he is now the Yellow Emperor, and he is a high Xuan, and his own people dare not talk to him too casually, although he is not flattering, but he will definitely pick a good sound, this is human nature, and it cannot be characterized as a pat on the wind, not to mention that Wu Di said that it does make sense, he got the Nine Leaves Qinglian and distributed it wantonly, and it was his own people who benefited, and it was indeed a public matter.
His previous worries were actually due to the underestimation of his own people's pattern and opinions, in fact, the essence of this matter is very simple, he got the benefits of others and promised to help others, and then gave the benefits to his subordinates, when it came time to fulfill the promise, his own people would naturally be able to understand and support him, only those who are selfish and narrow-minded will accuse him of not discriminating the severity, because of the small loss, the benefits are gained, but because the boss to fulfill the promise and accuse him, this kind of selfish subordinates really want it.
"During my absence, you have worked hard, and the hearts of the widows are very uneasy. Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand.
Seeing him so solemn, everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted back, and the old blind man replied on behalf of everyone, "The saint is serious, as a courtier, it is within my duty to share worries for the king." ”
Wu Zhongyuan said again, "All the purple qi warriors present today are rewarded with bronze tops and cape stinging pythons, and those who have been rewarded with this award have been promoted to the next level. ”
When the people heard this, they were very happy, and hurriedly received the order of thanksgiving, but in fact this kind of reward is not an actual reward, but more of an honor, although the honor is false, but it is also valued by the world, everyone has vanity, the essence of honor is to satisfy the vanity of others, so that the rewarded person is different from the ordinary people.
Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand to signal everyone to return to their seats, and turned to look at Jiang Dahua, "Jiang Dahua, you are in charge of the military department, according to your opinion, how should the warriors who participated in the rebellion this time be dealt with?"
"Among the heinous ones, there are those who rebel and plot to usurp the throne, and it stands to reason that they should be beheaded," Jiang Dahua said with a sad face, "But there are too many people, and they can't kill them all, so it's better to punish them with twenty rods, reduce them by one rank, and let them make meritorious contributions." ”
"Yes," Wu Zhongyuan nodded in agreement, "This matter will be handled by you and Prince Li and Prince Jiang." ”
The three of them should get up.
Wu Zhongyuan said again, "Jiang Tao, Wu Shaojun, Wu Yan, and Li Fan are four people who are in the outer way, seeking to usurp the throne, and the crime is unforgivable. ”
This matter is under the management of the Ministry of Rites, and Jiang Youdao, the director of the Ministry of Rites, got up to receive the order.
"Everyone, do your part, the two princes and the officials of the six ministries will stay. Wu Zhongyuan said.
When the people heard this, they stood up and took leave......
