Chapter 328: Killing
Concubine Xu Xian wanted to be promoted, but Queen Xu deliberately raised the Jade Concubine Zhang in front of the emperor.
I don't know if I really like Zhang's family, or if I was annoyed by Concubine Xu Xian's clumsy acting skills, Emperor Yan Cheng really agreed.
directly decreed that Concubine Yu would be a concubine, and from then on she would be on an equal footing with Concubine Xu Xian.
Concubine Xu Xian was dumbfounded at this time.
I didn't get promoted, and I made an opponent come out.
Then she cried and cried, saying that she wanted to go back to Huzhou.
Who knew that the emperor readily agreed again.
Concubine Xu Xian had a hard time riding a tiger, so she had to pack up her bags and complain about Xiao Mingzhu, who had a bad idea. I just can't wait for another earthquake, and if there is a fight, there will be an excuse to stay.
Who knew that her crow's mouth, a good spirit but not a bad spirit, really started fighting!
But it's not Dayan, it's a neighbor of Dayan, and it's also a small country attached to it, Qingguo, and it's infighting.
The old king of Qingguo passed away, and the throne should be passed on to the eldest son, but the eldest son died earlier than him, so the old king passed the throne to the eldest grandson who was twelve years old.
But Lao Wang's second son quit.
If the eldest brother is still there, forget it, obviously he is also a descendant, it is when he is in the prime of life, why should the eccentric father pass the throne to the eldest grandson?
He doesn't want to obey a hairy child!
So Uncle Wang, who controlled the military power, fought with his nephew.
Nephew, he can't beat it.
One of the ministers next to him suggested that he write a letter to Emperor Yan Cheng for help.
To say that the minister is really a talent, a letter is written with sincerity and style.
On the one hand, he praised Emperor Yan Cheng's great achievements in pacifying Ganzhou without a trace, and on the other hand, he wrote the pity of the young king with great emotion.
When the recitation came out, many ministers were in tears.
Some people became enthusiastic and said that they should uphold justice and fight this battle.
But there are also some courtiers, such as Wang Han and Wang Lao Shangshu, although they also shed a few tears, they are more soberly aware that this kind of thing should be solved by themselves within their royal family.
What benefits can they get by sending troops to Dayan?
Whoever loses and wins, don't they all have to pay homage to them? Why waste all this effort?
But the last time the Lord and faction, Xu Taishi this time was abnormal, and he resolutely demanded the main battle.
Bringing out a bunch of big truths, saying that if the orthodox king is not maintained, how can it be called a ceremonial state?
The royal family is on his side again this time.
In the battle of Ganzhou, how proud the emperor was, how frustrated they were.
Now that there is an opportunity to prove the power of "Orthodoxy", why don't they fight?
Besides, Qingguo is no more than a small place compared to Dayan. The total population of the whole country is not as large as the Dayan army, which is a must win!
Besides, why is it no good to fight?
Of course, for the imperial court, it is really not good.
But for these big families, they can take the opportunity to privately plunder the resources and minerals of Qingguo, so as to make a windfall.
So there was a strong demand for war.
And Emperor Yan Cheng is quite contradictory.
Intellectually speaking, he felt that Wang Han was right.
In other state affairs, it is best not to meddle indiscriminately, and it may not be good to meddle.
But emotionally, he really sympathized with the little emperor.
Leave it alone, it's really unbearable.
Just as he was hesitating, His Royal Highness the King of Han suddenly returned to Beijing.
Min Bai this time, it's not a joke, he came back seriously to complain!
Since Emperor Yan Cheng opened up some areas of Daizhou and allowed the clansmen to mine coal, problems have arisen frequently.
It's okay to eat more and occupy more, but the worst thing is that in order to be lazy and save effort, they don't want to go through the trouble of mining, so they directly dig the mine horizontally, directly open up to the bottom of the official mine, and steal the official mine in disguise.
And the bad consequence of this incident is not the loss of money, but the fact that they dug so indiscriminately and directly caused the collapse of the official mine!
Fifty-two soldiers and miners were buried alive in the ground, and the rest of the men dug desperately for days before they could rescue thirty-seven of them.
There were three soldiers, twelve miners, and they never came back.
Originally, none of them had to die.
His Royal Highness the King of Han, who has always been good-tempered, is furious!
He had already told his clan relatives that in fact, they were not without mining experience, but they still disregarded the lives of others for the sake of convenience. Even after the accident, he said as if nothing happened.
Oh, only fifteen people died, what's the big deal?
If they are afraid that the people will make trouble, they can pay double the compensation according to the bereavement of the fallen soldiers.
But is it about money?
Human life is at stake!
"Father, I really can't let them dig like this. If this continues, the carbon vein we have worked so hard to find in Daizhou will not benefit the local people, but a disaster! ”
"Silence!"
Emperor Yan Cheng's phoenix eyes sank slightly, and his face was a little uncomfortable.
At the beginning, he wanted to let go of mining, but Shangguan Ling and Min Bai both vigorously opposed it.
I'd rather give money than open this opening, for fear of all kinds of accidents.
But at that time, Emperor Yan Cheng said that the clan relatives had promised well. We will definitely standardize the operation and do not dig indiscriminately. But this has been less than half a year, and he has been slapped in the face frequently.
Wang Su, who has been promoted from the governor of Yucheng to the prefect of Daizhou, is almost a foot thick, and it is all the illegal acts of participating in these clansmen.
Recently, he even said that if the emperor continues to indulge like this, he will not be able to do it, so it is better to resign and go home!
The emperor's heart is also holding back the fire.
He knows that things are not easy to do, but is he the emperor?
Outsiders don't understand his difficulties, don't his own sons understand either?
Still coaxing, what do you want?
Seeing that the father and son were in a stalemate, Li Dahai was still interested and persuaded His Royal Highness the King of Han in a low voice.
Min Bai also knew that it was not easy for his father, but there were some things he couldn't help but say.
“…… It's just the side, but the attitude of the clan relatives doesn't take human life seriously at all. If it weren't for his son and General Gu Zan trying their best to suppress it, I was afraid that the two sides would get up early and clash. Father, once those hundreds of people make trouble, it's a big mess! ”
"Enough!"
Seeing that Emperor Yan Cheng's face was already gloomy and about to drip, Li Dahai hurriedly persuaded Min Bai to go down and rest.
Walking to the door of the hall, Min Bai heard Emperor Yan Cheng smash the tea bowl inside and scolded.
"Bastard thing! After making a little contribution, do you really think you can fly? If I hadn't been carrying it around here, he, the King of Han, would have been so relaxed? ”
Min Bai knew that this was his father, no, his father deliberately scolded him.
Min Bai felt sad for a while.
He actually preferred Emperor Yan Cheng to scold him in front of him, or even beat him up. It's not like now, when you lose your temper, you have to worry about these and that.
Li Dahai only sighed wordlessly.
When the son is older, it is difficult to be a father, especially the father and son of the heavenly family.
Min Bai didn't know that in the past two years, the imperial relatives led by Xu Taishi have changed their strategies.
In the past, it was about the change of color of the Han King, but now when it comes to the Han King, it is all praise. I can't wait to say directly, there is a successor to the emperor, you can rest assured when you close your eyes.
This is a killing!
