After the Tang Emperor Li Hongsi left, everyone's expressions were complicated.

Some people still wanted to speak, and the rest of them winked at him, and he quickly shut up.

Everyone dispersed.

I would love to say that Emperor Li Hongsi is a puppet. But the emperor is the emperor after all, even if he pulls the big flag as a tiger skin, that person still has a flag erected there after all.

The foolish subjects and fools of the world are still loyal to the emperor, and who knows what they can do for the emperor; And some people with ulterior motives can also use the emperor's reputation to do something unspeakable - now the situation is really complicated!

I returned to the station in West Chang'an, ready to sleep, and someone walked into the house: "My lord, someone wants to give you a banquet." ”

I was not happy and said, "Who! It's too conspicuous, it's just lice on a bald head. ”

took the letter and tore open the fire seal, on which were a few words: "Lingnan Damin Emperor Lin Li welcomes Lord Chen Ju to the banquet." ”

What is this for?

Celebrating your claim to the title of "Emperor of the Great People"? It's really a little family!

Or do you have a second heart? You are a Lingnan, the land of the Southern Barbarians, thousands of miles away from Chang'an, what can you endure?

I threw the letter away: "Don't go!" ”

But I'm too curious! If he invited a circle of people, but I didn't go, and everyone in that circle knew what was going on, I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't know what was going on like a fool, how could I bear it?

I picked up the letter: "Oh, that's wrong. I thought the 'Great People' were going to rebel. Since the emperor has approved this title, let's reluctantly go and congratulate it! ”

Xi'an County, Restaurant District, Chang'an Enchantress Hotel.

The owner of the hotel has changed. The previous boss was "Wang Facai", the leader of the Gyeonggi General Private Gang, who was taught by the Women's League to become a sheep scorpion in Qicheng Port. After the death of "Wang Facai", his shopkeeper came to the fore and succeeded him as the head of the Gyeonggi General Private Gang, also called "Wang Facai". - So, so to speak, there were no substitutions.

Wang Facai was very dissatisfied with the extravagant style of his predecessor Wang Facai, so he made Chang'an Enchantress extremely low-key.

He removed all the jade agate tortoiseshell porcelain and replaced it all with crystal.

Remove all rubies, emeralds, opals, emeralds, and replace them all with diamonds.

All the mahogany furniture was removed and replaced with gold and silver utensils.

The candles were all removed and replaced with new electric neon lights.

Even the actors and singers have been removed a lot, and they have been replaced with loudspeakers smuggled from Liaodong and Lingnan.

The loudspeaker was connected to a rotating round black film, and a terrifying sound was constantly emitted. Although the loudspeaker doesn't sing as well as a real person, it's expensive—so everyone stares at the loudspeaker with relish and gives a thumbs up from time to time.

I walked into Chang'an Enchantress.

The mahogany floors on the floor have been turned into marble, the tables and chairs are inlaid with copper and gold, the dishes and chopsticks are all sterling silver, and the light bulbs on the ceiling illuminate the whole hotel like a sun, shining through the doors and windows.

Lin Li stood at the door to greet people.

He looked less than 1.6 meters, with a dark face, small eyes, a small nose, thick lips, fluffy and sparse hair, and a thin body - typical Lingnan people.

In the past, Lin Li was called Lin Zili, but in order to show his difference, he changed his name to two words.

He said that he had the blood of the Damin royal family? What about fools? Five hundred years ago, the people were wiped out, and only one of the last princesses named Xin Fu ran to Lingnan. Five hundred years, according to the twenty-fifth generation, then your Damin royal bloodline is only 0.00009367431640625! Of course, if you had had been in a mess with your brothers and sisters in every generation, you would only have 50% of the Imperial blood of the Great People—but you would be a fool.

I looked at Lin Li with a solemn face, and wanted to say, "You choose, either admit that you don't have royal blood, or admit that you are a fool of the disorder." ”

I said, "Look up for a long time!" Congratulations! ”

Lin Li held my hand and said, "Look up for a long time!" Inside inside! ”

I walked in.

Damn, another pilgrimage! Those who should have come came, and those who shouldn't have come didn't. It's just a standard pilgrimage. I looked outside, not knowing if the emperor would come this time.

The first floor of Chang'an Enchantress is several thousand square meters, and there is a large platform in the middle. The large platform is surrounded by dozens of tables. The tables facing the table are the main seats, where the viewing position is best; Other tables surround the main seat.

There were already people sitting in the main seat, and they were arguing.

Yang Mingyang, the prime minister of the outer court, Zhao Yuyang, the head of the inner court, and Zhang Qiangsheng, the director of the secret department, are still arguing there!

Others looked at them with embarrassed expressions.

Yang Mingyang: "The unity of knowledge and action, the people will govern themselves!" All we have to do is give the law! ”

Zhang Qiangsheng sneered: "The excerpts you asked to rebuild the second survival department are all in my hands, what else do you say 'the people will govern themselves'!" Ha ha! Amusing! You don't even care if people want children or not, and you dare to say such things without shame. ”

Yang Mingyang's face instantly turned red. He said, "This ...... You...... I don't care about them! We need to teach them to be one in what they know and what they do. Our policies are voluntary, and we regulate the population in the form of laws. Now the population of Datang is too large, it is said that there are no less than 4.5 billion...... What if there are too many people? We are to educate the people, and we are to bind them with the law......"

Zhang Qiangsheng looked disdainful: "That's a good thing, it's not the inner court and the forbidden army that will clean up the mess for you when the time comes!" ”

Yang Mingyang: "Now that the population is so large, there are homeless people everywhere, what are you going to do?" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng touched his slippery chin: "Kill the light." ”

Yang Mingyang stretched out his right hand and pointed at Zhang Qiangsheng: "You...... You ......"

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Weak, not worth mentioning." ”

Yang Mingyang was about to speak, but Zhang Qiangsheng's eyelids twitched a few times: "Now there is the Mongolian Great Yuan in the north, the Jinling Great Han in the east, the Lingnan Great People in the south, and the Jianghu cults and the scholars of various provinces in the interior. Now that the world is not in charge of the Tang Dynasty at all, you are concerned about the population problem in the world. ”

When Yang Mingyang heard this, he opened his mouth and looked at Zheng Anmin next to him.

Zheng Anmin, the personal eunuch of Emperor Li Hongsi, is now the former eunuch of the emperor. The "imperial eunuch" is not an official position, but only serves the emperor - but with the emperor every day, this is considered a big official!

This person is not tall, not short, neither fat nor thin, with black and shiny hair, white teeth and red lips, and a face like a peach blossom.

He stretched out his right hand to hold his hair and said, "Master Zhang, this is for the sake of the country." The emperor told me about this a few days ago. He said: 'Now the world is nominally the Tang Dynasty, but the holy decree does not come out of Tongguan!' ’”

Zhang Qiangsheng, director of the Secret Division, said to Prime Minister Yang Mingyang: "What are you going to do about this?" ”

Yang Mingyang frowned: "Everyone recognizes Li Hongsi as the Son of Heaven, and all provinces in the world obey Chang'an, what else do you need to do?" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "It's just talking. If we force them to do something they don't want to do, will they do it? ”

Yang Mingyang: "Why do you want people to do things that they don't want others to do?" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Isn't this the definition of power?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "No! Power is mutual......"

Zhang Qiangsheng slapped the table: "Mutual? What power do the subordinates have over the emperor? Do you understand the concept of power? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng has always been quiet, and this move was very unexpected.

He slapped the table, and everyone around him stared at him.

The silence was like the ripples of a pond, and the whole hotel fell silent.

Immediately, several high-ranking officials next to him were sloppy and telling jokes, so the noise vibrated like the ripples of a pond, and the whole hotel became noisy again.

From time to time, many people quietly stared at the main seat.

Yang Mingyang sat on the chair, turned his face and did not speak.

An Ningri next to Zheng Anmin also stood up.

Anning Day, who is also the personal eunuch of Emperor Li Hongsi, is currently the head of the harem. He used to be the harem supervisor of several emperors in the Qing Dynasty, and he was very satisfied with Li Hongsi, so he was brought to Chang'an.

Tranquility Day: "But...... But the second half of the emperor's sentence was: 'Let them go.' 'The emperor meant to exhort the nobles everywhere not to embarrass the commoners......"

Zheng Anmin glanced at An Ning Ri and said, "Therefore, for the sake of the people of the world, it is even more necessary to strictly control the officials of the provinces!" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "That's right, that's it. ”

Yang Mingyang stared at Zhang Qiangsheng and said, "Then what are you going to do?" Keep tossing? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "'Toss'? Ha, I like the word you use. Yes, I'm just going to toss. ”

Yang Mingyang: "You know that Zhu Honghua is just tossing blindly, and he has finished tossing Daming." They never knew what it meant to 'just do enough'. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "That's because they're all waste. But I'm not. I will crush all the traitors one by one, like ants twisting one by one. ”

Yang Mingyang sneered: "By you? ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "You can say that. But it would be accurate to say: by the inner court. The Inner Court will control everything, and the Inner Court will crush everything. ”

People looked at him wrinkledly.

Zhang Qiangsheng continued: "We will rebuild the forbidden army. After the forbidden army is built, there will be nothing else to do. We will also rebuild the Inner Court system, rebuild the Imperial University, rebuild all institutions. ”

People stared at him, not knowing what they were thinking.

Zhang Qiangsheng picked up the long wine bottle, poured it into the long crystal glass, and tasted it slowly.

At this time, Zhao Yuyang, who was next to him, stared at Zhang Qiangsheng for a while and said, "Do you know what 'reconstruction' means?" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng frowned, and his eyes rolled: "Teach them knowledge and ability." - What do you mean by that, you ask? ”

Zhao Yuyang said: "'Reconstruction' means: destruction and beginning. You have to destroy everything before you can 'rebuild'. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng also stared at him, and said word by word: "What do you mean by this?" Kill them all? ”

Zhao Yuyang also drank the wine slowly: "If you want to do it, you have to do it perfectly." ”
