Chapter Twenty-Four: The Sister-Brother Deal

A false alarm!

"I made a deal with my sister, how ?—— do some errands for me to go north, and after returning to Beijing, I will follow my sister's request and give amnesty to the world!"

The emperor's face changed again, and the murderous aura that suddenly appeared suddenly disappeared again, and his face became pleasant, and his tone was much softer, as if he had returned to his family as a good brother in a second.

"I would like to hear about it. ”

Gong Chang Mingyue said quietly.

The bow chief unintentionally pinched his sweat, and thought to himself: Could it be that the emperor played so many tricks, killed so many people, and arrested so many people, just holding back his bad luck to make a deal with his sister? Or, is this just one of his many motives? Since ancient times, emperors have really been tricky animals, and they are treacherous when they open their mouths. Listen to what he says.

"My sister worked hard, and went to Huajing in Xia with her nephew to serve as my special envoy, and attended the wedding of Xia Dihua Zhengrong and Princess Weiguo on my behalf. Since the two countries have concluded an alliance and the alliance is a grand ceremony, it is natural that they cannot be taken lightly. Although the big gift is half a year later, my sister should leave immediately. ”

Wouldn't it be nice to go to see someone get married, have a trip, go on a trip, eat, drink, and have fun, and then bring some special products home when you're done? Such a deal is too easy! The emperor's brain circuit is too strange! Gong Chang has no intention of secretly thinking to himself. You can save tens of thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of demons when you come back from playing, is this deliberately letting Gong Chang Mingyue do charity to earn traffic? No, there must be the following!

"Please make it clear to Your Majesty, what are the priorities in the meantime?"

Gong Chang Mingyue raised his head and looked directly at the emperor.

The Emperor left the throne and said slowly as he paced, "Three things. - The first one, the governor of the city, will do the right thing for the heavens!"

Gong Chang Mingyue asked: "Your Majesty's intention, all the way north, the place of the governor must be Jiangzhou, Huaizhou, Anzhou, and Huizhou in the north. These states and counties have always been arrogant and arrogant. Now, the Huan clan is extinct, and the king and Xie are sitting big. His Majesty will definitely kill cats and make an example of dogs, so as not to repeat the disaster of the Huan family. The minister also did not want to see the prison rise again. ”

"Huh. It should be said that it is killing people and scaring ghosts. In recent days, I have received a letter from the Inspector of the Qinjian Observatory to impeach the kings of Jiangbei Prefecture and the Xie family for their illegal acts. These gate valves, relying on the power of their own family, are good at the power of the state capital, fornicate with demons to do evil, greed for money and money, poison the poor and weak people, and the matter involves the king of Dongmu County in Jiangzhou and the king of Xiping County in Huizhou. Behind these, it is inevitable that there is the shadow of the Chinese book order. ”

The emperor paused, his face full of worry about the country and the people.

"After years of floods and droughts in the north, the people have been displaced, the imperial court has not been effective in disaster relief, violent things are rampant, the people have been in turmoil, the demons are endless, and the upper and lower have left morality, and I am very worried. Sister, you are the only person I trust and rest assured. Alas, now that I am alone, I understand the need for 'nepotism'. ”

The bow chief listened indifferently, and secretly laughed - trust, rest assured, a fire burned down the courtyard of the people's mansion, and threw people into the black and smelly dungeon, and then said: You are my relative, this emperor, the face is really unusually thick.

"Your Majesty wants the ministers to go to the north to kill people, all the way to the border, and then, with a bloody aura, to the Northern Dynasty?" Gong Chang Mingyue asked coldly.

"Of course not, why did Sister say anything?" the emperor raised his hand to his mouth and coughed lightly, "How can I be a bloodthirsty king?" The eldest princess can not hurt a person, or even kill a demon, but, within a hundred days, you have to confiscate the rich and powerful assets from the Jiangbei states and hand them over to the treasury of the Great Inner Treasury. I don't need much, 300,000 taels of silver!

300,000 taels! It is equivalent to the financial revenue of several state capitals of the Daxing Dynasty handed over to the imperial court in a year! Gong Chang thought unintentionally, and went around in a big circle, it turned out that it was for money. It is really the same in any human era, where all evil money is the head, all the power schemes, all the struggles, and there is no escape from the word "wealth". O pathetic man! Even the emperor who is high up and kills and kills cannot be exempt from vulgarity, and he changes his methods to make money. No, I finished my own move, and pushed a weak female streamer to the front line of grabbing money.

"It's really not much, this amount is less than half of the money confiscated by the Huan family. Helpless, the Son of Heaven is difficult to do, disaster relief requires money, the demon chaos needs money, and the Northern Expedition to Xia requires money! You see, there is no money, so I have to make a compromise with Han Ren. - Xingxia's alliance is a joke, but there is no way. The Emperor replied with a pluice on his face, and raised his hand to the large group of ministers outside the Furong Garden, who advocated and opposed peace talks.

"I know. This is the first thing: three months, three hundred thousand taels. Gong Chang Mingyue didn't seem to care, and it was no wonder that she never took money seriously.

Looking at the calm Mingyue, the bow chief had no heart and his scalp was numb. He hasn't even touched a tael of silver in the years since he came to the Daxing Dynasty, let alone 300,000 yuan? Asking for money is the most difficult thing in the world, but it is much more troublesome than killing people, and he must take on this nasty task for her. So, he began to ponder. Think about it.

"This second thing", the emperor paced broken steps, walked to the bow chief Mingyue to follow, bent down to pick her up, and also signaled the bow chief on the side to be unintentionally flattened, "Sister and virtuous nephew are afraid that their lives may be in danger." ”

Gong Chang unintentionally chuckled in his heart: Just after the money, you want to die?

"I would like to hear about it. The stunned Gong Chang Mingyue still said the same sentence, as if at this time, she had to accept it.

"My sister knows, after leaving Daxingjing, going to Huajing of Xia Kingdom, you can take a detour and pass through the hinterland of the Dragon Kingdom - the capital of the Demon City. The emperor said as he gestured, as if there was a map in front of him.

"What's the point of going into lockdown?"

"Return the corpse! The corpse of the demon king Chi You Wuwu, I have taught Dugu Yu to put it in the Mingyue Pavilion, and used the best crystal coffin to keep it from rotting for several months. Sister, this is your own trouble! The people of Fengtian Mansion are spreading the good story of the eldest princess killing the demon king alone! Good stories are good stories, and they always have to give an explanation to the leader of the Divine Dragon Kingdom, the demon king Chi You. Otherwise, the demon soldiers will come to attack, and the lives will be ruined. Sister, the Cangzhou demon rebellion has not yet been pacified!"

Hearing Chi You's death, Gong Chang unintentionally stepped forward to defend himself: "Your Majesty Mingjian, Chi You was not killed by his aunt, the murderer is someone else!"

The emperor turned a deaf ear, suddenly became angry, and roared: "The matter of Huarong Dao, I have painted everything, just to use She Qingchen to lead Chi You Wuya, borrow Chi You Wuya to kill Huan Su, and use Huan Su's death clan to destroy the Huan clan against the party, I never expected that my sister would add the most exquisite stroke!"

"The minister is guilty. The minister is willing to return the corpse to the capital. Gong Chang Mingyue knelt down and bowed again, unhurriedly, as if he was just performing a routine, and very politely dodged the emperor's splashing spittle.

"Sister's courage is commendable, this trip is dangerous can be imagined, if Chi You Wuliang and his handsome demon are going to take revenge on Sister, I am thousands of miles away, even if I want to protect Sister, I am powerless. The emperor instantly dissipated his anger and calmed his heart, and a thousand expressions of pity and helplessness welled up on his haggard and pale face, "Alas, it's just that the unintentional virtuous nephew has been implicated for no reason - he has just been crowned the king of Beijing County!"

Gong Chang unintentionally clenched his fists and said, "My nephew is willing to die for my aunt!" He thought to himself, Emperor, the most dangerous thing is you!

At this moment, what the bow chief said unintentionally was not a high-sounding scene. For some reason, he instantly developed the determination to go to the soup for Gong Chang Mingyue, even though he had not been friends with her for a long time.

"However, neither the elder sister nor the virtuous nephew can die!"

The bow chief had no intention of thinking that the emperor was going to show "mercy" again.

"You have to steal a treasure for me in the Demon City-the Divine Jade Crane Lingbi! ”

The so-called trip of "returning the corpse" turned out to be another drunkard's intention not to drink! The bow chief had no intention of sneering, but he had to secretly marvel at the depth of the emperor's scheming.
