Chapter Eighty-Four: The Salted Fish Emperor!
Things are generally developing according to Xia You's imagination.
Because of Zong's good ability to check accounts, it can be said that the vast majority of officials can find out what happened and go to prison, so the implementation of various policies is very smooth.
Because of the role of the earth-shaking thunder and Suo Junchu's modern concept of governing the army, with the opportunity of the invasion of the Great Sheguo, he also attracted some troops.
Because of Xia You's encouragement and the various medicinal materials he brought, Qiu Zixuan has successfully gained a sense of qi and is working hard to move towards Xiaocheng.
On this day, Xia You took the disguised Eighth Imperial Daughter to the Central Theater of the Imperial City.
The theater staged three plays every day, Li Ju was in charge, Yan Cui served in the army on behalf of his father, and Wu Zetian, the empress of the ages.
Li Ju and Yan Cui are the otherworldly versions of Mu Guiying and Mulan, and Wu Zetian is completely empty, but in the case of newspaper propaganda and Li Ju Yan Cui is real and verifiable, Wu Zetian is also regarded as a real person.
On the stage, the next thing to be played is Wu Zetian, the empress of the ages.
Sitting in front of Xia You was a poor student and his father, listening to the words of the two, it was the father who pulled his son to watch the play.
"Son, the empress is below, look!"
"What an empress, Dad!"
"Why not!" As a father, he raised his eyebrows, "Lord Liju and Lord Yan Cui came to speak last time, and they were also in the newspaper!" ”
"Then there is no Wu Zetian!"
", people have been dead for a thousand years, and it's not our big departure, it's the big house next to us, do people open the coffin board and run thousands of miles over!"
After listening to his father's words, some of the students were skeptical. As the sworn enemy of the Great Departure Country, no one knows their history, and they don't know if there was an empress in the Great House thousands of years ago.
On stage, the drama has begun.
The first act tells the story of the old emperor, who is unreasonable, and the ministers are in the same stream, oppressing the peasants, craftsmen and poor children together, and his methods are cruel and his actions are filthy.
The audience in the audience looked bloody, their muscles exposed, and some people scolded quietly.
Then the second act begins, the eighth princess Wu Zetian is a wandering princess, raised by an ordinary peasant family until she was five years old, and then she was led into the palace.
The eight princesses who entered the palace did not forget the people, and helped the people speak many times when they became adults, but Yu was mediocre in the court, and her suggestions were refuted again and again, and the princes and princesses who were in the same vein as the old prince also laughed and bullied her.
The audience in the audience had tears in their eyes, which was moved by the Eight Princesses.
At the beginning of the last scene, the old emperor was mediocre and greedy for pleasure, and in order to be able to go down to distant places to play, he forcibly recruited peasants to dig canals and waterways, and tens of thousands of people died.
The Eight Imperial Maidens couldn't bear it, so they came to the canal construction site and used the herbal medicine she had learned to treat the injured peasants. Thanks to her efforts and appeals, the death rate in the canal was finally reduced, but countless people still died every day. Until one day, the adoptive father of the Eighth Emperor also died under the canal.
The emotions of the audience have reached their peak.
Holding the body of her adoptive father and watching her grieving adoptive mother commit suicide by jumping into the river, the Eighth Emperor finally woke up and realized that studying medicine could not save the Dasheren, and she teamed up with the eunuchs and palace maids around her, using means and borrowing public opinion, to kill her brothers and sisters and ascend to the throne.
Since then, the world has been peaceful.
The play has ended, and the audience still can't get out of it for a long time, and their eyes are full of tears.
The next moment, the poor student in front of Xia You jumped up.
"Long live Your Majesty the Eighth Imperial Maiden!"
"Long live Your Majesty the Eighth Imperial Maiden!"
The audience also stood up, and their voices echoed throughout the theater
Xia You was deeply grateful, and it was in vain that he took the trouble to let the light ball write the script.
After seeing such a touching story, salted fish like the Eight Princesses should also be high-spirited, right?
Xia You looked at the Eighth Imperial Maiden next to her,
- The girl slept soundly.
This guy is hopeless.
When the Eighth Imperial Maiden woke up, Xia You took her back to the palace.
When he arrived in the hall, Zong Ziming walked over:
"Gonggong Han and Wang Tian are here."
"What are they coming for?" Xia You was surprised, everything has been going well recently.
Zong Ziming glanced at the Eighth Imperial Maiden, leaned into Xia You's ear and whispered, "They mean that the old emperor has lived too long!" ”
Xia You was taken aback: "It is worthy of being a eunuch and a martial artist, and his courage is not small!" ”
The meaning of the two is very obvious, that is, to force the old emperor to abdicate early.
You must know that in Dali, the throne is for life, and the emperor can only die on the throne.
"What are you talking about!" The Eighth Imperial Maiden looked at the two muttering in front of her dissatisfied, "Xiao Youzi, this palace told you not to get so close to Xiao Mingzi!" ”
Zong Ziming touched his nose in embarrassment, he didn't know what was going on recently, the Eighth Imperial Maiden seemed to have a big opinion about him, but she didn't mean to punish him.
After Zong Ziming left, Xia You asked, "Your Highness, what is your opinion on Xiao Mingzi?" ”
The Eighth Imperial Maiden looked around and said to Xia You: "I heard that Xiao Mingzi likes little eunuchs, and he has already made a person named Xiao Chuzi, don't be entangled by him." ”
Xia You's heart was shocked, he didn't expect that the relationship between Zong Ziming and Suo Junchu would even be known to people from another world.
Promising not to contact Zong Ziming alone in the future, Xia You and the Eighth Imperial Maiden came to the front hall.
Gonggong Han and Wang Tian were waiting here.
Their meaning was just as Xia You thought, they wanted the Eighth Emperor to enter the old emperor's bedroom and force the old emperor to abdicate.
The old emperor's illness had reached a serious point a few months ago, and after his birthday, it was like a gossamer, blowing and extinguishing.
But that wisp of gossamer, there was no sign of swallowing, and there was no change for several months.
This made Han Gonggong and Wang Tian a little anxious, but they were still waiting to divide the power.
Let the two of them go outside and wait first, the Eighth Imperial Maiden pulled Xia You's clothes, her face pale.
The old emperor is very good to the Eight Emperor Daughters, and the relationship between the Eight Emperor Daughters and the old emperor is also very good, she really regards the old emperor as her father.
Hearing that the two were going to let themselves go to their father, the girl was a little unacceptable.
"It's okay, don't pay attention to them, you're the princess!" Xia You touched the girl's head.
"Well, then they'll be handed over to Xiao Youzi, I'll go see my father!"
"Bring Qiu Zixuan."
"Good!"
The Eighth Imperial Maiden happily left through the back door, and Xia You went out to refuse Han Gonggong and Wang Tian and came to his courtyard.
Zong Ziming was drinking tea in the courtyard, reading the newspaper, and crossed Erlang's legs.
Seeing Zhuo Ai also sitting on the side playing the fat house happy party, Xia You entered the yard with confidence.
"Xia You," Zong Ziming frowned.
"What's wrong?"
"We defeated the clansmen, civil ministers, and military generals, but the Black Earth Sect, a non-governmental organization, has no sense of existence at all." As a man who has failed twice in details, Zong Ziming has been very vigilant recently.
"What can a non-governmental organization do?" Xia You said, "But let's investigate." ”
"I asked people to investigate, and I guess the information will be sent over later."
……
……
Outside the Imperial Palace, the Five Princes' Palace.
The fifth prince and the third prince sat on the chair and looked at the black-robed man standing below.
The black-robed man's voice was hoarse: "It's been discovered, the forces of the Eight Imperial Maidens are investigating us." ”
"It's a pity, it's late." The fifth prince laughed and stood up, he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, narrowing his eyes, "Do it!" ”
