Chapter 158: The Emperor's Kneeling
Yun Feixue's voice was hysterical, and the roaring roar echoed wildly around the main hall, and everyone's hearts were moved by his pathetic tone.
Xiao Gan's ability to deceive and conceal his subordinates is also sufficient, at least Dongfang Jianxiong has never heard of this matter, and even these ministers have never heard of it at all, only knowing that Xiao Gan did take over a huge engineering project more than half a year ago, but they never imagined that he would use soldiers as coolies.
"He didn't dare to recruit civilian workers recklessly, because this would attract the attention of others, and the young soldiers were full of physical strength, as long as the work of sealing the mouth was done well, these hundreds of thousands of people would completely become his Xiao Gan's private labor, and I really wanted to ask, did you really propose this project for the safety of the empire? The huge amount of money that the emperor allocated from the treasury is still piling up in your Xiao Mansion!"
Countless people gasped, the project of three mountains and two lines of heaven is huge, it is said that the number allocated by the emperor has reached billions, is it really all in Xiao Gan's pocket?
His guts and appetite must have been too great.
Dongfang Jianxiong never looked at Xiao Gan, he was just staring at Yun Feixue and the women in the Qinglou beside him, as well as the four deputy futures.
I don't know how long it took, when even everyone's breathing became heavy, Dongfang Jianxiong suddenly said, "Where are those soldiers now?"
"Just waiting in the square outside the main hall. Yun Feixue said.
"Take me to see it. After Dongfang Jianxiong finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the outside of the main hall, everyone got out of the way, and Yun Feixue followed.
The air was not so cold, and the cold wind was not so biting, but Dongfang Jianxiong suddenly felt a cold stinging pain in his chest, as if ice pierced his chest.
In front of him and all the ministers and officials, there was a crowd of black oppressors, they were in rags, and even many of them were unclothed.
Through the tattered clothes, you can clearly see that the body is full of holes, almost all of which are formed by the whipping, and some of them are scars left by bruises and falls.
Yes, these are the soldiers of the Hidden Dragon Empire, and there are many faces among them that are familiar to many officials, and they are like broken candles, as if they will be blown out by a light breeze at any time and can no longer burn.
"The Qianlong Empire, the original third military camp, the fourth military camp, and the fifth military camp, all the soldiers knocked on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The uniform voice broke through the sky, and the shouts of 60,000 soldiers in unison shook the heart, especially at this moment, it shook every hundred officials and ministers standing here.
Dongfang Jianxiong only felt that his chest was stirring and tears were in his eyes, they were full of enthusiasm to serve the empire, and they were willing to devote the rest of their lives to the safety of the empire.
But this body full of holes, that crumbling soul, where is there still the slightest strength to fight for the empire, they have been eroded by a force called decay, if it weren't for Yun Feixue taking them to and from the Hidden Dragon Palace, the 60,000 people here would never be able to fight in all directions in this life, because they fell under the fertile soil of their lives.
"I'm Dongfang Jianxiong, I'm sorry for you!"
The simple ten words made everyone's chest suddenly shake, and I saw that he suddenly raised his hands and removed the crown on his head, and Lin Rang on the side hurriedly took it into his hand carefully.
Then Dongfang Jianxiong made a move that everyone, even Yun Feixue, would never forget, and he knelt on the ground with a 'bang' of his knees.
"Dongfang Jianxiong, ashamed of you, this worship, for those deceased heroes, you should have fought on the battlefield, it is my Dongfang Jianxiong who has left your souls without a place, and I am Dongfang Jianxiong ashamed of you, ashamed of all of you. ”
"Your Majesty, no, you are the supreme dragon body...... "Many officials wanted to step forward to help Dongfang Jianxiong, but his eyes flashed with anger and pathos at this moment, "Kneel down for me!!"
With a roar of rage, the domineering dragon mighty descended like a god, and almost all the ministers and hundreds of officials knelt on the ground one after another, kneeling towards the 60,000 soldiers.
At this moment, the significance to the entire Hidden Dragon Empire is undoubtedly huge, at least these soldiers would never have thought that the king of a country would bow down to them, which is unprecedented.
"Your Majesty, please get up, Yun Gongzi has repeatedly explained to us that you must be unaware of this matter, you are a wise monarch, we just want our family to live with peace of mind, and they can live well, it is enough, if we really die on the battlefield for the country, we die without complaint. ”
A soldier hurriedly stepped forward to help Dongfang Jianxiong, his eyes were full of tears, Dongfang Jianxiong's kneeling was already the best explanation.
"It's because of my ignorance that I feel guilty, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and your family will not have any problems, I will take that golden dragon chair and guarantee!" Dongfang Jianxiong stood up and held the soldier's dry hands, he felt that he was holding a piece of old bark that had died.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" replied 60,000 soldiers in unison again.
"Your Majesty, this matter, the ministers ......" Xiao Qian wanted to say something, but Dongfang Jianxiong didn't seem to want to give him too many opportunities to say anything else, "Xiao clan, Zhu Jiu clan, all the property belongs to it!"
"Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life, my wife and children are innocent, they ......"
"When you threatened their families, did you think that they were innocent, those tired heroic spirits, did you think that they were innocent, and when you swallowed a huge amount of money, did you think that these soldiers were innocent?"
Yun Feixue's questions one after another made Xiao Qian unable to say half a sentence, and he didn't feel the slightest injustice in Dongfang Jianxiong's punishment, because the imperial laws formulated by the previous emperor were like this, at least bringing a woman to the barracks was already a capital crime of beheading.
The officials and ministers looked frightened again, the last time King Zhuge Ming, this time it was Xiao Gan, who will it be next time?
They didn't know that King Zhuge Ming also died because of Yun Feixue, at least Yun Feixue didn't send the list to Dongfang Jianxiong, and he wouldn't find out the culprit of King Zhuge Ming.
"Yun Feixue, you will be punished, I won't let you go if I am a ghost, Yun Feixue ......" Xiao Gan's voice became farther and farther away, disappearing into everyone's range of sight and hearing.
"Yun Gongzi, I don't know how the project of the Three Mountains and Two Lines of Heaven has been completed?" a voice from among the ministers asked.
"I ruined the project. Yun Feixue said.
"What? ruined, you ...... You know they built it with blood and sweat, and you ruined it so easily?" the official looked incredulous.
"The safety of the Qianlong Palace can not be guaranteed by one door, I advise you to do more business, can it block for a while, can it block for a lifetime, only a fool will rely on this kind of thing. Yun Feixue said.
"You...... Are you insulting the emperor for being a fool?" the official continued.
"That's what you said, I didn't say it......" Yun Feixue didn't care.
"You ......"
Yun Feixue didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of boring question, he said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Qian originally planned to give me this mess, so I just continued to take over." ”
"You mean......" Dongfang Jianxiong didn't quite know what Yun Feixue meant, Yun Feixue continued, "These sixty thousand people are all sick from hard work, but you know that I have a way to make them recover in a short time, of course, more importantly, I believe that they are a hundred times stronger than the role they played under Xiao Gan. ”
"But then you have to join the court, you don't ...... all the time"
"I have reliable candidates for them to take this position, Zhuge Ming Wang and Xiao Qian have had this kind of problem one after another, don't you think that someone must also replace their positions?" Yun Feixue said.
"Do you have any reliable candidates, tell me about it. Dongfang Jianxiong asked.
"Hong Yan, Su Yu, come out!" Yun Feixue shouted softly, and the two people not far away hurriedly walked to Yun Feixue's side.
All the officials looked a little puzzled, could it be that Yun Feixue was talking about these two people?
One looks so young, at most he is only in his twenties, and the other is already forty or fifty, who of them can take Xiao Gan's place?
Hong Yan's heart was beating violently at this moment, and he seemed to realize what Yun Feixue was going to say.
"Hong Yan, he is twenty-one years old this year, his ability is too condescending under my hands, in my judgment, he is fully capable of taking over the position of Xiao Qian and even King Zhuge Ming. Yun Feixue said.
"Yun Gongzi, you are completely child's play, every general in the empire must be replaced by someone with seniority, you can just find someone to take over, this is too hasty. Objections were immediately raised.
"Yes, he is only twenty-one years old, how can he be able to manage such a huge army, please think twice. Another person hurriedly said.
Yun Feixue looked at them with cold eyes, these two people didn't dare to look at him with interest, and after a while, Yun Feixue said, "Only people with qualifications can sit in this position, does King Zhuge Ming have enough qualifications? ”
Yun Feixue pointed at the 60,000 soldiers, and the anger in her chest couldn't help but be provoked by these two sentences again.
"I didn't mean that, I just ......"
"Okay, what Fei Xue said is not unreasonable, some positions should indeed be given to people who are talented and willing to really serve the empire, no matter how old the seniority is, no matter how strong the ability is, all he thinks about every day is what this kind of beast can't do, what is the use of qualifications?" Dongfang Jianxiong said.
"The emperor is wise. Many officials followed.
At this time, you should be more interesting, Dongfang Jianxiong is not a faint king, and rewarding meritorious deeds is also his style all along, Yun Feixue's relationship with him is already good, not to mention that he has now pulled out such a big tumor for the empire, then it will be even more appreciated by the emperor, as long as his suggestion is not excessive, it will definitely be adopted, you refute it at this time, don't you hit the muzzle of the gun yourself?
"What about this one?" Dongfang Jianxiong couldn't help but look at Su Yu and asked.
"His name is Su Yu, a researcher of the Dao of the Xuan Army, Hong Yan is still young after all, but if they can get Su Yu's guidance, I believe they will be able to create indescribable value for the empire, which is at least countless times stronger than repairing that door. Yun Feixue said.
Many people, including Dongfang Jianxiong, had their eyes lit up, didn't the Xuan Bing Dao say that it had long been lost, this inconspicuous person had actually studied this thing, it was indeed impressive.
Human nature is like this, as long as you have real skills, no matter where you are, you will never be left out in the cold, you are just an ordinary person, and how many people will bird you in the crowd?
"But Childe, I'...... You can't ...... this way" Yun Feixue saw what Hong Yan wanted to say, patted Hong Yan on the shoulder and said, "You can only obey me by my side, and you can't do anything else, this is just like I said, what you need is the big stage of the entire Hidden Dragon Empire, what I want to do, you know very well, you can't help with ten." ”
After speaking, Yun Feixue looked at Su Yu again, "Uncle, not to mention, I brought you here for this matter, I hope your name can be recorded in the annals of the Hidden Dragon Empire." ”
