Chapter 274

Yan Suyi and Zhan Junfei went to find the Wing King, but Yan Hongyi didn't follow, mainly because they had wronged the Wing King before, and they inevitably had no face to see them, so they found a way to deal with the rest of the idle chores in the army.

There are some things that need to be learned from the mouth of the Winged King, so when I came, it was still the side hall, as if the Winged King loved this place alone, and he had never changed places.

Xi Chao raised his hand and motioned for the two to take a seat, and was about to talk to the Yan brothers, but it happened that he had to run by himself.

"A large number of books in the library need to be copied by hand, and I don't have enough people on my side, so you have credible people on your side to transfer some." Xi Chao opened his mouth to declare the matter of the dignitaries first.

"Yes." Yan Suyi never thought that the Wing King would copy the book so quickly, and motioned to the shadow guards around him to find someone, and everyone would have no worries after copying it.

"All?" Zhan Junfei raised his eyebrows and looked at the Wing King, something unpleasant had just happened two days ago, and the Wing King's temperament didn't look so generous.

Xi Chao glanced at Zhan Junfei, who was asking stupid words, and said lightly: "The important books have been selected, and I am not generous enough to contribute everything." "Not to mention that you can't finish copying, the hole cards must always be left before others, even if you don't use it now, it's better than regretting it afterwards.

The Wing King's straightforward and natural words can choke Zhan Junfei, and he is stuck in his throat in one breath, and he can't go up and down, let alone suffocate more.

Yan Suyi didn't make excessive irrational demands, and he would do the same as the Wing King, maybe he would be more harsh than the Wing King.

"The body of the Emperor of the Patriotic State is kept in the ice cellar, do you want to see it?" The Xi Dynasty suddenly mentioned a dead monarch who could no longer die, in order to dispel the groundless suspicions of the Yan brothers. She didn't coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes hobby, so as to suppress the Yan State that was now in the middle of the war, only when the Emperor Wei died, and the Yan State took the remaining territories, it was logical to put her heart back in her stomach.

"The concubines in the palace also have young princesses and princes. What to do? "Zhan Junfei wonders if the Wing King will be completely wiped out without blinking an eyelid, right? It's hard to say.

"It's dead, and if you keep it, you'll only cry, and it's really annoying to listen to." The Xi Dynasty does not intend to let go of the people who are involved with the royal family, especially women, pity them and let them go, if it is easy to say, there are a few people who have a strong mother's power. Where can I get a royal widow to move the ambition of reviving and defending the country, then it is a headache, why keep such a scourge, and solve it all with one knife. So as not to bewitch the public everywhere and shake the slightly stable people's hearts, as for the princess and prince who have the blood of the royal family, it is not a matter of compassion, the child is innocent, but which one of the people standing behind the child is a fuel-efficient lamp. Chop the grass without roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again. In order to avoid trouble in the future, it is more appropriate to cut the mess quickly.

Zhan Junfei secretly thought that the Wing King was becoming more and more cold-blooded and ruthless, and he was developing in the direction of a murderous maniac, killing people was as easy as talking, listening to the strange blood in the ears of others.

"Look before you go." This matter must be confirmed in person, Yan Su Yi couldn't rely on the words of the Wing King to ignore the inspection of this link.

"The three imprisoned princes of the country starved to death." Xi Chao lightly tells the fate of others.

"Death must be miserable." Zhan Junfei didn't see anyone starving to death, but starving to death in advance by the means of the Wing King might be better than seeing the country ruined and then being beheaded with a knife, at least leaving a whole corpse.

"The Mausoleum of the Emperor of the Patriotic Empire, I am sending someone to visit." The Xi Dynasty turned out the pattern of the imperial tomb from the dormitory of the Emperor Weiguo, "Although the emperor will be buried in the imperial tomb after his death, there are also treasures of utensils used before and after his death." However, there are exceptions, and it is good to go and explore. "Wouldn't it be better to have something of value back and use it elsewhere?

"If you want to get involved, I'll have someone send your people there. Don't look at the outside of the imperial mausoleum, it is divided into several layers, and there may be an underground palace. Although it is not drawn on the drawings, it does not hinder the occasional whimsical of the Xi Dynasty.

"Okay." The Wing King opened his mouth and Yan Su Yi climbed the ladder and summoned the shadow guard to pick a few capable people.

The Xi Dynasty generously asked people to follow and send it directly when the time came, and even if the little thing in the imperial tomb was divided equally, there was not much, so it was just a thin noodle for Yan Suyi.

"What about those officials of the country?" Yan Suyi arrested many officials and imprisoned them, and it was more convenient for the Wing King to be the master in this matter than himself.

"It's useful to keep it for two days." The Xi Dynasty already has a preliminary plan, so there is no hurry.

"What are you here for?" After Xi Chao finished talking about his own business, he remembered to ask the two of them about their intentions.

"Ask what doubts are in your mind." Yan Suyi didn't dig up the truth in a roundabout way, and said bluntly, "Can the Wing King solve the puzzle?" ”

"Something about the palace?" Xi Chao guessed that the Yan brothers were puzzled, and he didn't think that he would be very thick-skinned to ask now.

"Yes." Yan Suyi wasn't sure how much the Wing King could reveal, after all, this matter was about the hole cards in his hand, whether he could get the answer or not, ask it out to give him a peace of mind.

"There is an eyeliner laid by Mu Guo in the palace a long time ago, and you have also seen that Gonggong Cui, who has been a confidant by the side of the Emperor Wei for many years, and getting an edict or token to open the city gate or something is like picking up something." Xi Chao briefly said a rough idea, revealing too many details will reveal the horse's feet of the previous layout, and stop when it is time to stop.

Yan Suyi guessed that this would be the case, and now that he has been confirmed from the mouth of the Wing King, his heart is slightly relieved, so let's stop here, the two sides did not agree to carry out the topic to the end.

"The contents of the treasure house have been sorted out, and two directories have been written, remember to bring them with you before leaving." The tide has the intention of sending off the guests.

"Okay." Yan Suyi heard the sound of the Wing King, got up and said goodbye, not leaving the palace but going to see the Emperor Weiguo.

Xi Chao sipped tea and thought about the follow-up problem, and said to Hongrui: "The belongings that have been confiscated will be distributed according to the original state, re-copied the household registration, and told the people to gather at the main gate outside the palace early in the morning and post a notice that the Emperor Wei is dead. ”

"Let the guards do this?" Hongrui found that everyone in that group of guards was full of enthusiasm and had some symptoms of falling into demons, so was it really good to let it go like this?

"Divide into small groups of guards, plus personal guards and Mu Jun under them, pick smart, and leave a good impression on the people who defend the country." Relying on that group of guards alone will inevitably feed the appetite of some of these thoughtful people, and now it is the land of Mu Country. You should abide by the laws of Muguo, but you can't be blindly tough, and you can stabilize the situation with a stick and sweet dates. The situation will get better and better, Xichao is convinced.

"Yes." Hongrui remembered another thing and asked, "Where does the master plan to appoint officials?" "The political situation of the country has collapsed, and many official positions have been vacated, and officials are generally recruited from the country to be appointed, I don't know what the master is planning, mainly because none of the selfish officials in Mu Country can handle it, lest they drag down the master. Destroying the territory that the master has managed to lay down, if he is selected among the patriots, he is not loyal enough in terms of identity. Second, the ability cannot be determined only by a person's incorruptible tongue, in short, it is very troublesome.

"Patriotic people are selected from among the locals, putting aside the old bureaucratic system, and adopting a new way of appointing and dismissing. Prevent the occurrence of a lack of people's hearts and swallowing elephants. "This requires more than a thorough examination of old cases. Time is the ultimate weapon to truly test the character of an official, and the tide is not in a hurry to come step by step.

"Gather craftsmen, they will build roads and houses." Xi Chao suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, so that he could use this place as the cornerstone to implement his own change of mind, and start here.

"Okay." Hongrui put the master's intention first, and retreated to prepare.

As he was kindly knocked open the homes of the people in the city, looking at the silver taels received in his hands and the words of reminders, as if in a dream, he never thought that the war would end so peacefully. It was too fast, and there was no tragedy in the war. These were also sent, and for a common person who was not wealthy, he was even more overwhelmed than a pie falling from the sky.

One of the people's greatest worries is that the enemy army enters the customs to burn, kill and loot all kinds of evil, and the people are displaced and the corpses on the streets are commonplace, and the second is that the country is dead, and the people will become slaves of the country and be abused by the victorious side, living a life that is not as good as pigs and dogs, and they will not be able to turn over for a lifetime, which is more difficult than death.

Now that it has been made clear, they can finally rest assured, they can still live as before birth, this is the commander of Mu Guo, the order issued by the person called King Yi, some of the people who are still confused and puzzled go door to door to ask, and go to the streets to see, whether it is really as Mu Jun said, the city is as in the past, and has not been baptized by war.

It wasn't until the neighbors who came with them witnessed that there was no trace of the city's dilapidation after the war, and everyone was alive and well, and they didn't find a dead body lying on the street.

The people don't know how to express their inner jubilation, and the children are infected by the adults and run in the familiar streets and alleys, and the pleasant laughter returns to the children, without depression and fear, such a war is too strange, but it is so close to the people's voice.

There are bold people who ask the guards walking on the street about the beginning and end of the war, and they are very curious in their hearts, why this war is so peaceful, and the big thing has been decided in the blink of an eye, they don't care about the life or death of the royal family, they are still oppressed by the royal family and those officials and bullies who are powerful and powerful, and the wicked should have a wicked man.

When it was found that in addition to a few guards in the city, most of them were Mu Jun and Yan Jun, but there were no officials and masters, and after many inquiries and summaries, they came up with a happy result, without the corrupt officials who looted the people's fat and ointment, they no longer had to live in a hurry with their heads bowed and their feet bowed every day.

Although the imperial city is prosperous, it is for the upper class people, the people at the bottom are barely even the most basic breadwinners, and the taxes to be paid every year are more and more year by year, most people have not smelled the flesh for three years, not to mention that the clothes on the body are mended and washed can not see the original color, the children in the family have no silver to study, they can only familiarize themselves with agricultural work in advance, or go outside to do short-term work, to maintain the livelihood of the family, if someone in the family is sick, the money may not be spent like flowing water, and it will be more difficult in the end.

I heard that not only the imperial city is so quiet, but also other cities, the people in the city are not damaged, and most of the dead are officials and rich and unkind business bullies, and the people can't help but remember the day after tomorrow when they go to the main gate of the palace.

The word palace is unattainable in the hearts of the people, no one is curious enough to disregard their lives just to see the majestic grandeur of the palace, where the common people are not allowed to set foot in, and most of the violators die without asking the reason, the people have many taboos and fears of the palace, and the thought of going there has more anxiety and hesitation in the bottom of their hearts, what is the reason to gather the people in the city, no one is worried about the problem of whether they can let go. It's about worrying about whether it's related to you, whether it's good or bad.

In the blink of an eye, it was the appointed day, and this huge momentum alarmed Yan Suyi and others. I don't understand why the Wing King opened the main gate of the palace and put the people gathered in the city inside? unanimously guessed that the Wing King was going to make a big move again, put down the chores in his hand and handed them over to the deputy general with full authority, and the three of them hurriedly entered the palace.

I originally thought it was talking outside the palace, because sometimes the imperial list would be posted outside the palace wall, but I didn't expect the palace gate to open and Mu Jun signaled the people to line up and enter in order, which made the people who were already hanging with an inexplicable heart like thunder, and listened to the order and followed the people in front of them into the palace with dark eyes.

I don't know how long I went. The long and long teams stopped, and Mu Jun arranged for the teams to disperse in groups and form a semicircle. The place is very spacious enough to put the people who come to it.

When the qiē stopped, the sound of drums summoned the wandering thoughts of the people, and their feet stepped on the smooth and shiny floor tiles, and in front of them was the solemn main hall of the imperial palace. All of them are close in front of you, and they seem to be so palpable. But no one was excited, but more was in awe of the palace, the palace that had never been set foot on, and today I could see and stand here in a mixed mood or be clear, and I could not use words to enlighten the state of mind at this moment.

No one dared to whisper here, for it was so quiet, so quiet that he could not bear to blaspheme the tranquility with the slightest sound, although there was a lot of confusion in his heart. I have no regrets about entering here as a civilian in this life.

A mixed mind swirled around everyone's heart, and they looked straight ahead. Because they saw Mu Jun with his head held high and his astonishing sharpness, and there were five more chairs on the platform outside the main hall, one was centered and placed in the center, if you were not mistaken, it was a chair with dragon patterns that only the emperor could sit on, and the remaining four ordinary houses were lined up on the left side, and tea was placed on the square table.

Xi Chao led the three uninvited people except Xu Mian Hongrui to sit down, and he was quite satisfied with the people in the row below, at least the silence that should have been done well.

"The purpose of inviting everyone here this time is to impartially deal with all the officials in the city and their families." Xi Chao introduced his identity before this, and the people who came out of the surplus did not comment.

The people were quite surprised when they heard this, what did the officials in the city have to do with them, they wanted to talk about it, but they suddenly found that this place did not allow their lowly status to be presumptuous, and the wriggling lips and tongue did not make half a sound, and there was a heavy puzzle in their eyes.

"I invited you to come because I want to use everyone's knowledge of the officials in the city to identify the traitors for this king." Xichao was slightly relieved, "The intention is to distinguish whether these officials are good officials or not, so as to convict them." ”

"You can point out whether officials have disregarded human life and disregarded the law and discipline, and it is not worth opening the net." Xi Chao said very clearly, although he has the evidence of these officials' crimes in his hands, he can also order a sentence to solve it, the reason why this whole is to let all the people know that Mu Guo is not indiscriminately killing innocent people, good or bad is the people of their own country have the final say, he just acted as an executor, for the people to get rid of the most hated harm in their hearts, let the people deeply remember that Mu Guo's code of conduct is fair, not a dispensable sentence for the superiors, the power of life and death is now in the hands of the people themselves, Let's see how to choose next.

As soon as this remark came out, not only the people understood, but Yan Suyi and the three of them were even more surprised, the Wing King showed them an alternative and strange way of doing things, and the benefits of this would only be the result that the Wing King wanted. No one dares to accuse the hostile status of the invaders of the Mu country, and the people of the country will gradually accept and get used to the Mu army, that is, if they do not reject it, then the next indoctrination will only be more smooth, this plan is very clever and amazing.

The people of the country participated in the life and death of officials, and enjoyed such unreasonable treatment, and gradually only felt that the approach of the king of the wings was fair and just, all of them were for the sake of the people, and the people were happy when the corrupt officials died, and the people had always been humble and afraid of the officials, and they turned over and tasted the sweetness, although they may not necessarily obey the words of the king of wings, the voice of opposition will be much smaller, and the king of wings has been laying out since he entered the border city of the country, and the next game of chess is very large, and the seemingly inconspicuous chess pieces are now playing a great role in the present, Even Yan Suyi had to praise the talent of King Yi for being born in charge of the court, and there was no shortage of means and minds.

This is just the beginning, Yan Su has a hunch, the bait thrown by the Wing King every time is too fragrant and tempting, and the people who are not well educated and have insufficient lunar calendar do not know that they have fallen into the trap laid by the Wing King, not to kill the prey, but to besiege it step by step in the trace of despair and light the life-saving lamp, and willingly support it.
