In the eyes of the world, the emperor is the son of heaven, and he is admired by all the people for his mythological color.

The emperor raised his arms and shouted, millions of tigers threw their heads and spilled blood, and all the elites in the world knelt down and obeyed!

This painting feels beautiful when you think about it, but is this really the case? Of course not, the above scenes are actually imagined by the common people themselves. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, what is even more tragic is that there are many emperors who themselves are deeply trapped in this kind of dream and cannot extricate themselves, they look at the ministers and the people and shout long live, one by one prostrate on the ground, as if he is really the lord of the world.

But are those civil and military officials who are prostrate on the ground really loyal to him?

If it weren't for Vice General Lin's occasional discovery, Jae-chun might not have known for the rest of his life that there was such a smuggling network outside the distant pass.

He would not understand whether there was a deeper entanglement of interests behind every high-sounding word spoken by those gentlemen in the court.

He may not know when he goes to the grave that the land outside the Guanguan was actually sold by corrupt officials and corrupt officials! In the last days of the late Qing Dynasty, how many officials were bribed with money by Western forces, and how many were threatened by people with terrorist means?

The seemingly calm water sparkled on the surface, and the emperor looked at everything and thought how peaceful and beautiful the world was, but he had no idea how many water snakes and monsters were lurking in the deep mud at the bottom of the lake, and how many foul-smelling mud were precipitating.

Since ancient times, kings have been so mediocre, that is because no one has shown him the true side of the world, especially when the emperor himself is educated by those so-called loyal ministers, so will this education be selective?

Could the Confucian scholar who was responsible for educating the emperor have a careful mind to defend the entire bureaucracy? Did he deliberately conceal something, or deliberately magnify something?

The poor emperor will always be alone, everyone around him is calculating him, and they all hope that the emperor will become a puppet controlled by his own forces, and the so-called loyalty to the Ming monarch and the holy lord is all Confucian nonsense.

In fact, human beings are only loyal to the powerful, and human beings are never loyal to the weak!

What makes people sigh even more is that for their own interests, there is no Confucian group that is willing to tell the emperor the truth about the world, they are more willing to weave a dream for the emperor to enjoy comfortably in it.

The Forbidden City is very good, you don't want to go out, the son of a daughter doesn't sit in the hall, how dangerous it is to go out! Besides, the emperor who often goes out is not a good emperor, and he works hard and hurts money.

Your Majesty, you eat, drink, sleep and sleep in the Forbidden City, such a big country has taxes to support you. What? You say you like the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River? No, if I don't build you a new garden in Beijing, just treat it as your new toy, and have a good time.

Layer after layer of artificial traps and obstacles trapped the emperor's body, mind, and vision in a square city, while people outside could naturally do whatever they wanted.

deceived and concealed from foreign countries, exceeded miscellaneous taxes, fish and meat people, and trade smuggling...... As long as your emperor can't see it, and we have become a group, then who in the world can control them?

If Zaichun hadn't been forcibly taken out of the Forbidden City by Xiao Letian, I'm afraid he would never have known about the ancestral land of Longxing for the rest of his life, but it was actually sold by someone, and he wouldn't have known how many sins the local officials had committed to deceive the monarch.

Just as Ningguta's private soldiers were moving eastward with human and material evidence, poor Jae-chun was locked in the confinement room of the Zhiyuan, waiting for the return of his master.

"Woooooooooo......oo Somebody's got a word for me, please, who's going to say something to me......"

"Master, I was wrong, I will no longer act recklessly, I will definitely obey the military order in the future, please let me go......"

It's a pity that no one let him out no matter how hard he begged, because Xiao Lotian had already spoken when he left, when he returned victoriously from the Amur River, and when he would release Jaechun again, this time he must be given a punishment that he will never forget.

Since it was the prime minister's order, naturally no one dared to disobey him, so no matter how miserable Jae-chun cried, no one came to release him.

But Xiao Lotian also took into account, Zaichun is a child after all, and the punishment of confinement is very cruel, and the claustrophobic environment is very harmful to people's psychology, so it is nominally confined, but every day Sakamoto Ryoma and Wang Huaiyuan take turns to accompany them, tell a story about the war, tell a folk story, and it can be regarded as an adjustment to Zaichun's psychology.

And today, the shocking news of Qiqihar City was brought by Sakamoto Ryoma himself.

The little emperor, who was crying in the single room, suddenly heard a familiar footstep in the noise of a machine, and he threw himself directly on the iron door, "It's the dragon servant......, is it the dragon waiter? What's the good news today, you brought me something delicious!"

The guards opened the iron gate, and Jae-soon pounced on him to get some delicious food as he had for the past few days, and then listen to the story of the war told by the other party.

But what he was disappointed about was that today's Dragon Servant Great Monk's hands were empty, and his face was extremely ugly.

"What's wrong? You...... Why do you have such an expression!"

"Amitabha, Your Majesty, I have brought bad news today, and I want to teach you a sad lesson today!

"What! Is there news? Has Hunchun succeeded? Has the mutiny been successful?" Zaichun was extremely concerned about this matter, because he knew very well that Hunchun was loyal to himself, and as long as Hunchun of these two provinces stood firm, this was his sphere of influence.

"Your Majesty, please be seated...... Let's take a look at this latest information!"

The secret letter was written by Vice General Lin, in addition to a brief description of the process of the mutiny, the last thing to focus on is the secret information ten years ago.

The more Jae-chun looked at it, the more shocked he became, his mouth opened wide and he kept shaking his head, "No, fake! Hehe, it's all fake! Impossible, how can it be...... Misunderstandings, all misunderstandings!"

With a snap, the secret letter was slapped on the table, "Yishan is my uncle, born with a yellow belt, how can he betray the country! Impossible, you are lying to me......" Jae Chun's voice sharpened.

Sakamoto Ryoma whispered the Buddha's name in his mouth, and he was calming Jaechun's angry heart, "Amitabha, Your Majesty doesn't need to be angry, is it true, we can wait for first-class witnesses and physical evidence!"

"These secret account books not only expose the secrets of ten years ago, but also expose the entire spy network of the imperial court outside the Guan! Behind Yishan and Tepuxin stand the Queen Mother and the prince, and they have raised countless spies through the interests of this smuggling network......

"We can arrest people according to the information, and I think we will be able to dig up a lot of big fish......! Don't worry, black can't be white, and white can't be black!"
