Chapter 44 Those who dare to criticize the new deal are the three tribes

"It's a long way away! You can hear the noisy shouting of Zhangtai Palace, what kind of system it has become. ”

The Empress Dowager Song pulled the crown prince Gongzi Yu and did not walk to the throne, but sat on the side seat under the throne and said.

"I heard from afar that all the loyal ministers and good generals of the Great Qin Empire are clamoring to depose the new policy of the first emperor? Is there such a thing? ”

Empress Dowager Song paused, and then spoke.

Gongziyu stood beside her honestly, very deferential.

"Back to the Queen Mother, this is indeed the case. Your colleagues felt that the mutiny of the armies in various places was caused by the fact that the New Deal had taken away the military merits of the meritorious people, so the abolition of the New Deal was the only way to put things in order and appease the morale of the military. ”

Seeing that no one spoke, Wang Jian could only step forward.

"Whose field did you take?"

Although the Empress Dowager Song was a woman, she showed extraordinary courage and asked rhetorically.

"This ...... I'm afraid I have to ask Lord Zhao, the left attendant of the military department. ”

Wang Jian didn't dare to answer this, so he immediately shook the pot.

"Queen Mother, military merit is the foundation of the Great Qin country, the reason why the people enthusiastically join the army and go into battle to kill the enemy is because obtaining military merit can change their fate and benefit their descendants."

Zhao Ni, the left attendant of the military department, stood up and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Before the implementation of the new policy, what was the market price of an acre of fertile land?"

Empress Dowager Song didn't pay attention to Zhao Ni, but asked at the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the market price of one acre of fertile land is ten yuan [always a thousand]."

Li Si has been in power for many years, so he naturally knows the affairs of the imperial court well.

"What is the market price of a bucket of rice?"

The Empress Dowager Song asked again, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other and were full of doubts.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the imperial court stipulates that the rice is ten yuan, and those who dare to have a premium are guilty of death."

Li Si had an understanding in his heart, and he had to admire the wisdom of this new queen mother who lived in the harem, whose mother was precious to her son.

"Ten dollars for rice [about 30 catties per bucket], catching up with the good year, the grain yield per mu is only two or three stones [one stone is about 100 catties]. A hundred dollars at the age of one year, a good year can get ten thousand dollars, and a thousand years can make a profit of one hundred thousand dollars. ”

"Your Majesty collects the fields of the world, and the fields of military merit are not among them, and all the fields of military merit are redeemed to the court at ten times the market price."

"How can you seize nonsense?"

The Empress Dowager Song was justified and looked at the Manchu Dynasty's civil and martial arts.

This......

Zhao Ni was said to be red-faced, stood in place, and fell into a dilemma for a while.

It's just that soon, he had a flash of inspiration and said to the Empress Dowager Song: "The Empress Dowager, the military merits can be passed down from generation to generation, and no matter how much money you have, there will be a day when the mountain will be empty." ”

"Not necessarily! If this is the case, how can there be thousands of fertile fields under the name of Zhao Daren? ”

Empress Dowager Song did not show weakness and asked.

"It has been inherited from generation to generation."

Zhao Ni said with a straight face.

"That's strange, how did I hear that Lord Zhao has been so powerful over the years, he has taken advantage of it, and he has bought and sold hundreds of good land?"

The Empress Dowager Song seemed to have been prepared for a long time and went straight to the road.

Zhao Ni's face changed, how did the Queen Mother know about this matter after living in the deep palace for a long time?

"The queen mother must not listen to the villain's slander, the courtier's land and property are all exchanged for real money and silver, how can you say that you are taking advantage of it?"

"Although the Queen Mother has a noble status, after Her Majesty ruled the world, she formulated laws. According to the laws of Great Qin, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. ”

Zhao Ni didn't dare to continue talking about this issue, so he quickly changed the topic.

"I didn't want to do politics, and I won't do politics. But whoever wants to depose the new policy of the first emperor is to rebel against the empire and punish the nine clans. ”

The Empress Dowager Song did not back down and cut the railway.

The words immediately caused an uproar.

"Is the Queen Mother going to be involved in politics?"

"The first emperor had a decree that people in the harem were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the court."

For a while, many ministers who were watching the changes couldn't sit still.

opened their mouths one after another, criticizing the tough attitude of the Empress Dowager Song.

"Lord Bai, I'm sorry for you to announce the edict."

Empress Dowager Song took out a roll of black cloth from her sleeve and said to Bai Zhuo.

The hall immediately fell silent, and they all showed suspicious looks.

Bai Zhuo immediately walked over, respectfully took the edict in the hands of the Empress Dowager Song, and after unfolding it, he read aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, after my death, dare to criticize the new policy, Yi three clans." ”

In just one sentence, it swallows mountains and rivers, illuminates the past and the present, is domineering, and reveals endless killing opportunities.

"Your Majesty for 10,000 years, Great Qin for 10,000 years."

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military all bowed their hands, and the Si people have passed away, and the majesty is still there.

"Queen Mother."

Bai Zhuo held the edict and said.

"Let me show you, distinguish the truth from the false, and whether it is the emperor's edict."

Empress Dowager Song did not pick it up, but said confidently.

"Obey the Empress Dowager's decree."

Bai Zhuo immediately received the order, and then held the edict, walked down, and walked in front of the Manchu civil and military forces one by one, so that they could distinguish the authenticity.

After a while, I saw that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all drooping their heads, and they were all silent.

Empress Dowager Song stood up, took back the edict from Bai Zhuo's hand and said: "The new policy cannot be changed, otherwise it will be punished as a national thief, and the rest will be left to the lords." ”

After speaking, she took Gongzi Yu and left slowly.

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Prince."

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military immediately bowed their hands and said.

After waiting for the Empress Dowager Song and the crown prince to leave, the hall was silent for a while.

"Without further ado, immediately send an envoy to Shangjun and let Wang Ben, the general of the Northern Army, lead 200,000 troops to protect Gyeonggi."

Wang Jian was the first to break the silence and suggested to everyone.

"I agree with the advice of the protector of the country."

Imperial Doctor Mao Jiao took the lead in expressing his position.

"Seconded."

The right prime minister, Feng Quji, also spoke.

Li Si smiled, and three of the four ministers nodded, whether they were against it or not, it didn't matter, so he said: "Then send a special envoy first, let General Wang Ben lead the army to the king!" No matter what these rebels want to do, they can't go wrong in the end. ”

"There is Lord Lao Bai, please give out the first emperor's scepter, and the military talisman and seal document will be awarded to the envoy."

Wang Jian looked at Bai Zhuo, a close minister of the first emperor.

"The subordinate will do it."

Bai Zhuo arched his hand, and then hurriedly left.

Although the crown prince and the queen mother are gone, all the sons remain.

"Gongzixuan, the Hangu Pass guard will lead his troops into Xianyang, but your instructions?"

Wang Jian looked at the prince Xuan Dao, the son of the princes.

"Guogong, don't talk nonsense and wronged good people. Since his father's return to heaven, my son has been filial piety in front of the spirit, and all brothers can prove it, how can they instruct others? ”

"Although my son has a noble status, he has no soldiers and no power, how can he instruct the guards of Hangu Pass?"

"Besides, what kind of dirty thing is that Hangu guard, who dares to slander this son, it is really unreasonable."

Gongzixuan is about twenty-eight years old and dignified, but when he speaks, he is very arrogant.

Wang Jian couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had long heard that the seventh son of the emperor, Gongzi Xuan was upright and naΓ―ve, and after seeing the real person, he knew that what the rumors said was true!

After the Empress Dowager Song took the prince out of Zhangtai Palace, she asked the prince to return to the East Palace, and she returned to Ganquan Palace.

After dismissing all the palace maids, she quietly walked into the Fengchun Hall alone.

Arriving in her bedroom, she walked to the pearl of the night embedded in the stone wall.

After the white jade hand knocked left and right on the night pearl in a very rhythmic manner, the wall creaked.

Slowly unfolded, revealing a door.

When the Empress Dowager Song walked into the door, the wall closed again, intact as before.

The walls on both sides of the passage are inlaid with dense night pearls for illumination.

In the secret passages, she walked through the forks in the road with all the familiarity, and then walked around one intricate labyrinth after another.

After walking for about an hour, she came to the door of a huge underground palace, and tidied up her clothes and headdresses, for fear of a little mess.

Then she took off her mourning clothes and put them on the stone platform in front of the door, with a smile on her face, like a smile.

Pushing open the door of the dungeon, she slowly walked in......
