Chapter 150: Planting the Root Cause

"Get out, get out of here! It's all a bunch of rubbish. Zhu Houxi said angrily. Recently, he led his troops to flee back to Bashu, practiced hard, and the deliberately hidden soldiers and horses were broken by the enemy before they were used, and after Lu Yi's army supported Lu Xun, Lu Xun advanced layer by layer, if he fought hard, he was only afraid that the enemy would not be able to. If the defeat is returned to Bashu, I am afraid that it will be more unfavorable, and the best way for the future is to garrison in Bashu to defend against the enemy, so I can only be forced to withdraw back.

Zhu Houxi naturally felt that the fire was big, and after more than a year of hard work, he could be said to have painstakingly studied the art of war, exercised his body and skills, and practiced such a strong army. shamelessly asked Qi Jingtong, Yu Dayou and other generals how to lead the troops, and even asked Chen Hong for the ability to teach his majesty. Even so, he still retreated, although no one would say that the emperor was defeated, everyone also knew Zhu Houxi's strategy and strategy, and even knew that he had misunderstood Chen Hong. But after all, he retreated, and was forced back by Lu Bing's son Lu Xun. Lao Tzu can't beat him, and now he can't even beat his son, what will make the world think, no one will scruple about any big strategy, but they will feel that Zhu Houxi is extremely incompetent, which makes Zhu Houxi embarrassed, even if this is just Zhu Houxi's own thoughts.

Zhu Houxi felt that his luck was too bad, why could other people's schemes succeed, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape God's tricks, and the result was the same, just two words failed. Zhu Houxi felt terrible, he always had setbacks and failures in his life, especially when he met Lu Bing, he never won at all. To be precise, people and things related to Lu Bing will restrain themselves, such as such a good strategy this time. Whoever provoked him, he actually ran into Lu Xun, and the world and the earth happened to meet their advance.

They're not on patrol. He came to attack Bashu secretly, otherwise he would not have transferred a large army from southern Xinjiang so quickly, it seems that it was premeditated. And it was this kind of coincidence that made Zhu Houxi famous, ambitious and very ingenious plans frustrated. In fact, according to this reason, while the new country destroyed the sneak attack plan of the remnant Ming, the remnant Ming also destroyed the sneak attack plan of the new kingdom. It's just that Zhu Houxi, who was annoyed and irritable at this time, couldn't care about these at all, thinking that this was God's injustice, and he should have succeeded once. But hard work is still a failure.

And the matter that was judged to be weak in the new country, now Zhu Houxi has also heard some information and understood, this is just a ploy played by Lu Xun, not what Lu Bing meant. So it's a coincidence. Either that's bad luck. Either it was a series of misleading Zhu Houxi, or even a trick by God, which led to the occurrence of this series of things. Zhu Houxi felt very wronged and aggrieved, if he wasn't the king of a country, he almost wanted to cry, and finally all this grief and anger turned into anger.

Zhu Houxi first killed the minister who embarrassed Chen Hong, and he vented his anger. If it weren't for Chen Hong's persuasion, I was afraid that all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty would be killed by Zhu Houxi. Then Zhu Houxi stayed in this palace that was not luxurious and began to enjoy himself. He no longer paid attention to the government and government, and handed over all the affairs to Chen Hong. Zhu Houxi can see through it, his own hard work is the same, if he doesn't work hard, it's just a matter of doing more, since it is necessary to lose, it is better to eat, drink and have fun, what is the love.

Therefore, Zhu Houyu was completely disheartened and ignored the government and politics, and there were many beautiful women in the country of abundance, although Zhu Houyu did not have a draft girl who worked hard for the people and money, but he also found dozens of women to enter the palace for fun, changing the previous style of not being close to women and working hard. Chen Hong could only sigh again and again, and did not persuade the emperor again, after all, Zhu Houxi was indeed a little unlucky, and such a setback was inevitable, and persuasion at this time could only backfire, so it was better to let him vent.

Lu Xun's entry into Bashu has already given Chen Hong a headache, he interspersed with operations and marched quickly from east to west, faster than the military reports and spying on the military information, and any strategy and deployment in front of Lu Xun's attack seemed pale and powerless, which made Chen Hong a little difficult to parry, so Chen Hong, who was difficult to sleep, had no time to care about Zhu Houxi. The emperor can do whatever he likes, Chen Hong can help the old Zhu family protect the country for a while.

Today, Zhu Houxi was angry again, because the girl accidentally broke a glass cup. In fact, because Zhu Houxi implemented a thrifty policy in the early stage, everything in the palace was not expensive, and this glass cup was nothing, but in the eyes of Zhu Houxi, who was in a bad mood recently, this was a big crime enough to kill his head. Zhu Houxi took the whip himself and began to whip the palace maids who served him. Since retiring to Bashu, Zhu Houyu has not established a concubine or accepted a concubine, not only to show that he is diligent in government affairs, but also because this is a major event, and it will definitely cost money under the big operation, and what Zhu Houxi lacks now is money. If it is done simply, it will lose the royal dignity and royal etiquette, not to mention that the concubines are all trapped in Beijing, so if you set up a concubine, isn't it equivalent to telling Your Majesty and the people that they don't want to go back? This will strictly disturb the confidence of the courtiers in restoring the country, and it will also make the voice of the people decline, as a diligent Zhu Houxi in the early stage, will not do this, and is not allowed to do this.

Therefore, the show girl who is now selected into the palace can be said to be both a palace maid and a concubine, and she was wantonly humiliated by Zhu Houxi, and constantly tortured by the fire, which can be said to be worse than death. Fortunately, Zhu Houxi was not so confused that he chose hundreds of people to enter the palace at once as before, otherwise Bashu would have to marry a girl overnight, and the people would be in chaos.

The beaten palace maid also served Zhu Houxi last night, Zhu Houxi was very satisfied, and after getting drunk, she also said happily that if one day, she could recover her homeland and kill her concubine after returning to Kyoto. In fact, Zhu Houyu has done this more than once, many beautiful show girls have been coaxed by Zhu Houyi's words, and then they have already received severe beatings and abuse, in fact, if they knew that this Zhu Houyu had kicked his queen to death, it would not be surprising that Zhu Houyu did this, and the promise he said would only be regarded as a deaf ear.

Ten days ago, there was a show girl who was said by Zhu Houxi to disobey the holy will because she shouted a word of pain, and she shocked the holy body, and was beaten to death with a stick. Today's smoking is considered light, but I'm afraid that the next days will be difficult, Zhu Houxi will try his best to torture people, and this person holds a grudge very much, as long as he commits it once, he will hold on to it until you can't live. Which of the women in the palace has not been abused by Zhu Houxi, and in Zhu Houxi's eyes, these women are not people, they are just tools for venting. But this is the kind of person who is not regarded as a human being, but in order to survive for himself, he united and almost took Zhu Houxi's life.

—————————————————————————————————————

The matter of Gaojiayan has been investigated clearly, which makes Yan Song breathe a long sigh of relief. Yan Shifan did not use the wrong person, the situation he investigated was true, Lu Bing's grace and power were both powerful, not only to appease the people, but also to tell the officials how to be officials, the emperor wants useful officials, don't stick to the old rules and do practical things.

At the same time, the matter of the cabinet minister's waiting for the Son of Heaven to travel can be said to be well known and attracted the attention of the whole country, so it has also achieved the role of warning to hundreds of officials, and many other roles are not listed one by one, in short, it can be described as a strategy to kill two birds with one stone.

Along the way, whether it is a secret petition to the people, or a welcome report, no corrupt officials have been found, and the most problems that arise are improper handling or rushing to achieve quick success, which is a problem of ability, not a problem of morality or system. Therefore, Yan Song and Xu Jie both deeply admired Lu Bing's sage, and it was his reform that brought about such a good change in the atmosphere of officialdom.

The people are also living a well-off life, although not everyone can have fine clothes and food, but most of them have no worries about food and clothing, and they can also have a little spare money to buy and sell, which is very leisurely. The market is prosperous, there are many people coming and going, and the markets in various places have changed from opening every ten days to opening every five days to opening every three days, and now they are open every day. The traffic is full of people coming and going, and it is a prosperous scene, which is not easy for a country that has just ended war and a country at the beginning of the founding of the country. This is inseparable from Emperor Lu Bing's hard work, bold innovation and painstaking efforts, and it also shows the rationality of the system and Lu Bing's unique wisdom.

Yan Song and Xu Jie rushed to Yangcheng Guangzhou, and then immediately asked Wei He to arrest the four leaders of Guangxi and began to count the culpability. But in the end, Lin Yinhan couldn't do anything about it, Wang Zhenhu, Wei Chaofeng, and Wang Mingrui had conclusive evidence, and the people's voice was extremely poor, and they were hated by the people, and they wanted to kill them quickly.

The common people are jealous and hateful to the rich, but it is true that the three of them have gone too far, relying on the fact that they were once the leaders of one party, and they have the meritorious status of avoiding war and returning to obedience in time to avoid the country's injuries, and they have no king's law to bully men and women, spend all day drinking and wasting money, and some even get involved in the business world to bully and dominate the market. No one else can beat or catch them, and the officials reported these to the public, but there was no news like mud cattle entering the sea. Now it turns out that these crimes have been collected, punished for several crimes, listed one by one, the crimes are unforgivable, murder to pay for their lives, debts to pay, their blood debts must be paid with blood.

These are all sins to death, but the most fatal thing is that they also wrote letters privately, trying to send them to Guangxi and contact their former subordinates, trying to enjoy the glory and wealth while still manipulating military power, so that the imperial court did not dare to touch them in order to save their lives and seek huge benefits. They didn't know that Wei Yinbao had left Guangxi with his army, and they didn't know that these letters had fallen into the hands of Jinyiwei before they left the city. When the letters were placed in front of them, they were speechless, and their sins should be punished, and their hearts should be punished! On the contrary, it became them to break the agreement first, and it also became their unrighteousness first. Such a move is regarded as a rebellion, no matter what merit they have made before, they will not be able to deserve it, and no one can save them.

Four people were immediately imprisoned, and three were sentenced to be executed, but when they arrived at Lin Yinhan, they encountered a problem. (To be continued......)
