Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Imperial Capital Clan, Collectively Fishing for People
Outside the north gate of the imperial capital, a group of black shadows galloped towards the north non-stop, and someone had already prepared horses twenty miles away.
Chen Situ's trembling voice sounded in the darkness: "Lord Wang, now that we can't go back to the imperial capital, where should we go now?"
"I will repay today's disgrace!"
Wang Sima took a deep breath, glanced back at the giant city shrouded in darkness, turned his head, and his voice was full of exhaustion and cruelty: "Go, go to find the eldest prince Su Xin!"
The old man gave up his Shilin prestige and wanted to pull the emperor off the horse!
The figure of the group gradually disappeared into the darkness.
......
In any case, the most turbulent day in the imperial capital has passed.
For the people of the imperial capital, a new day has arrived, everything on the streets is the same as before, except that there is an additional group of Great Xia iron troops patrolling the whole city.
For Su Chen, from today onwards, the entire imperial capital has been completely controlled by him.
Regardless of military or political, orders are issued.
From a new monarch who has no great power to completely control the power of the entire court, Su Chen has put a lot of effort into it, but it is all worth it.
If you can't completely control the power of the court, how can you calm the domestic turmoil and the orc empire?
If you want to revive the backbone of the human race in the Great Xia Dynasty, you should start by purging the imperial capital.
"Have you heard? Yesterday, the army entered the city, tsk, the mansions of many princes and ministers, that is a river of blood!"
"I'm not blind or deaf, how can I not know? If you want me to say, this group of officials is really stupid, and if they don't do good things, they have to resign; hehe, this has angered the emperor, right?
"Childish! This is the emperor's seizure of power, and only when he has great power can he quell the civil strife; the three princes have been in control of the government for a long time, if they are not eliminated, how can the emperor be able to quell the rebellion of the eight kings without worry? Resist the orc empire?"
In the market, there are constantly excited discussions, although the Great Xia Dynasty is open-minded, and will not be killed because of talking about the government, but everyone is also cautious about the discussion.
After all, what happened last night was really shocking.
I heard that on the first day of the establishment of the Military Machine Pavilion Prison, thousands of people lived in it, all of whom were officials of the imperial capital with real power before yesterday!
It is said that many scholars who are related to the prisoners began to send people out early in the morning, and they tried their best to get the emperor to release them.
"Alas, how could the emperor see us? Now that the six ministries are vacant, we can't even hand over the words of the people, and we are not qualified to enter the palace to face the saints. ”
"It's not that we don't want to contribute, it's just ...... Alas, my uncle's difficulty is inevitable. ”
"What to do with the emperor! Now that the Military Aircraft Pavilion is in power, go to the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion!"
"Cousin, the military aircraft hall is in the outer hall of the palace, and it also belongs to the palace category, so we can't enter it. ”
"Don't panic, I heard that Sima Yi, the secretary of the military department, robbed the mansion of Lord Wang Sima, and he lives in it now, and even the sign of the mansion has been changed to the mansion of the military department......
"Really?"
"Seriously!"
"Someone, the carriage is waiting, prepare a heavy gift! I'm going to visit Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War!"
Such a conversation sounded in the countless noble mansions in the imperial capital, and every family tried their best to rack their brains to get in touch with the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion.
Among them, Guo Sikong and Sima Yi are the people who visit the most.
Without him, it is because the place where these two people are masters is outside the palace, and Guo Sikong has an inextricable relationship with the imperial capital clan.
It's a pity that Guo Sikong is closed and doesn't see guests, so everyone can only go to Sima Yi.
......
"Woohoo, that Sima Yi, I didn't see a guest!"
"It's so hateful, this person doesn't eat oil and rice, and my uncle-in-law is finished. ”
"Hugh wants a crow's mouth! I'm going to find out the news again, no matter what, I must save my uncle, I can't do it when the official is gone, and I must save my life." ”
Sima Yi also did not see the guests, which made the entire imperial capital clan panic and began to rush to the doctor.
Today, in the entire imperial capital, there are constantly luxurious carriages speeding on the streets, the east is running, and the west is going.
Even when the officials of the early court came down today, most of them found that there were many guests standing in their homes.
Everyone, with generous gifts, begged desperately, and refused to let go of any opportunity.
The concept of family among the nobles began to come to the fore, and they all wanted their relatives to be well.
Hundreds of officials are terrified, who dares to accept gifts at this time?
The ministers of the Military Aircraft Cabinet are ruthless and tricky, and even Guo Sikong has to avoid the edge for the time being, and their group of people can only protect themselves, and they dare not speak out to help, nor dare to accept gifts.
This continued until the afternoon.
In the early dynasty, there was a spread of the emperor's will, the content was to let the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion who did not yet have a mansion go to buy a mansion on their own, and the emperor did not want this group of ministers to always live in the palace.
The first batch of drafts from the twist has ended, and many show girls have entered the palace as slaves, which from a certain point of view, all show girls are the women of the emperor.
Although the place where this group of military aircraft cabinet ministers live is the outer hall of the palace, and they can't see this group of show girls, it doesn't conform to the rules.
Just after this decree came, the Minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion was forced to have no choice but to enter the Mansion of the Military Department Shangshu to live temporarily.
At the same time.
There was a shout of surprise from inside a certain imperial capital restaurant.
"Are you serious? The Ministry of War's Shangshu Mansion has opened the door to meet guests?"
This exclamation, like a tornado, instantly conveyed to the entire corner of the imperial capital, and was known to all the scholars.
This is an opportunity!
This is a great opportunity to catch people!
In a flash.
All the families began to move, and the luxury carriages full of gifts drove to the main road of the imperial capital, which was crowded, but there was a tacit understanding, and they all went to the Shangshu Mansion of the Military Department.
"Hurry!"
"Speed up and get a double gift!"
"Butler, butler, quick, take out my map of the bright moon of the country, it is the Danqing Mobao given by the emperor, and there is an inscription from the emperor!"
Countless people flocked to Sima Yi's mansion in front of them, begging to see the Minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion.
However, when everyone arrived at Sima Yi's mansion, they were stopped by a general who led the army, and heard that this person was Lei Zhenzi, the right captain of the Great Xia Iron Army, with an iron mask covering his face, and he was also wearing a special battle armor.
I heard that this person is very low-key, but his martial arts realm is extremely powerful.
"Don't worry, I've already sent someone to inform Lord Sima Yi, you can wait for the news for the time being. ”
Lei Zhenzi's voice sounded, explained, and then remained on Sima Yi's mansion.
The purpose of his army to guard Sima Yi's mansion was to guard against the appearance of dead soldiers and unscrupulous villains who intended to disturb the situation in the imperial capital among this group of scholars.
The scholars did not dare to make a loud noise, so they could only stand at the door with their eyes blank.
After a while, a servant came out of the mansion, coughed, and shouted to the scholars: "My lord said that if you want to enter the mansion, you can meet the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, but you need to express your sincerity, and at the same time, each family is limited to one person!"
"Sincerity?"
The scholars looked at each other one after another, everyone was a human spirit, how could such an obvious hint not be seen?
Before the servant's words fell, a scholar boldly stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "This lord, I am the son of the Xu family in the south of the city, and I am here for my uncle's affairs...... I also hope that the adults will be accommodating, and let me go in to meet the Minister of the Military Aircraft Cabinet. ”
After speaking, the scholar quietly stuffed a large handful of gold to the servant, he pointed to his carriage, the servant on the carriage understood, opened the corner of the carriage curtain, and it was full of boxes and boxes of heavy gifts, there was no lack of antiques, Danqing masterpieces, and ink treasures from the period of the emperor......
The servant glanced up in the direction of the carriage and bowed his mouth to the side door of the mansion: "Go in." ”
"Thank you, sir!"
The Xu family was overjoyed, and strode towards the side door in the mansion, which had already been opened, and there was a housekeeper sitting at a wooden table with a piece of paper in front of him, as if recording something.
"Butler, Xiaosheng is polite. ”
The Xu family priest gave up his hand, and the housekeeper didn't look up, but said lightly: "Stand aside first and wait." ”
The Xu family nodded, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, he came to fish for people today, how dare he play prestige?
When the other noblemen saw that someone had successfully entered, their eyes lit up, and they strode forward to the servant.
"My lord, I'm from the Chengbei Gong family!
"My lord, I brought it too!"
"My lord, please be accommodating!"
Countless people surrounded the servant, and the servant smiled bitterly in his heart, so he could only collect the gold one by one and let the people in one by one.
He just followed Sima Yi's instructions, and he couldn't get a single piece of gold......
Master Sima said, these are all the money purchased by the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion to buy the property of the mansion, how dare he be a little servant?
