Chapter 289 Beatings
Seeing that the hour was not early, Zhao Yujie asked Lan Ying to dress her up, and she had to go to Chongwen Hall again today.
Before entering the palace, the only master emperor in the world, the image in Zhao Yujie's mind was glorious, powerful and wise.
Becoming the other party's woman is Zhao Yujie's greatest wish, and it is also the peak height that she thinks she can reach in this life.
If she can gain the emperor's favor and become an empress, she will be able to achieve her life goals and values.
But now, after really getting the favor of the emperor Wushuang, Zhao Yujie has no reverence for the emperor.
It turns out that the emperor is also thick-faced and black-hearted, and the emperor does not distinguish between right and wrong, and the emperor has no morality. In Song Zhi, Zhao Yujie did not feel the personality charm that she was looking forward to day and night, which could make her worship from the bottom of her heart and be willing to surrender.
Becoming a vassal of this person can no longer satisfy Zhao Yujie.
Since the emperor is just a person who is obsessed with power and can do anything for the sake of imperial power, it is not worth her to dedicate herself completely, since all the people in this world are stupid, and they are oppressed by the government and powerful but do not know how to resist, then why should she live with a heart of awe?
Why can't you fight for the supreme power in this world?
In this world, why can't you make your own decisions?
Why can't you trample the world under your feet?!
In terms of qualifications, he has practiced for two years and entered the Imperial Qi Realm, and now it is already the middle stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, and the breakthrough of the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm is imminent, how many people in the world can compare?
In terms of wisdom, he was familiar with the political affairs of the dynasty after a few months in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and became the Prime Minister's confidant scribe.
Looking at the entire Great Qi, who can match him?!
Why can't this Great Qi Dynasty belong to itself?!
Zhao Yujie, who was dressed up, stood in front of the bronze mirror with a lot of spirit and ambition, and had a kind of 'mountain to the top - I am the peak'.
And when she walked out of the gate of Zizhu Palace, she had already changed into a weak and pure, harmless face of humans and animals, and even her eyes became as clear as a clear pool.
She knew what the emperor liked.
Meddling in the review of the recital is itself easy to cause jealousy, and her power currently comes from the emperor, and she can't make the slightest mistake, resulting in the power being taken away by the emperor.
After careful thinking during this time, she has packaged herself as a smart but simple, empathetic but timid and fearful appearance, without the slightest ambition for power, and what she does is completely to please the emperor.
She did a good job, Song Zhi believes it for the time being, and she still needs to work hard.
But this time, Zhao Yujie failed to go to the Chongwen Palace.
The queen ordered her to go to the Imperial Palace.
Zhao Yujie had to go.
But this is not a big deal, Zhao Yujie is mentally prepared for this, she is so favored in front of the emperor, the queen will be jealous sooner or later, and take measures against her.
When she came to the Lizheng Palace, Zhao Yujie made a cautious appearance, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at the queen, and bowed down in the hall to worship, "See the queen!"
She heard Zhao Qiyue's voice.
The voice was all too familiar to her.
But it still made her heart tremble, and her face turned red in an instant.
Because what Zhao Qiyue said was: "The traitor Zhao Yujie, do you know death?"
The word "traitorous girl" is in her ears, Zhao Yujie is like being pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows! This is the biggest reverse scale in her heart, every time she is touched, her mood will immediately become abnormal, and she will become angry.
She's not a traitor, never has been, she doesn't owe anything to the Zhao family!
At least that's what she thinks.
However, at this moment, what made Zhao Yujie even more frightened was that Zhao Qiyue had already noticed her identity!
How did Zhao Qiyue know the truth, Zhao Yujie had no time to take care of it, she struggled to suppress the anger and uneasiness surging in her heart, restrained her emotions, pretended to be ignorant, and knelt on the ground without moving.
After waiting for a while, she didn't hear Zhao Qiyue's voice again, so she raised her head blankly and looked left and right, as if she was looking for someone to talk to Zhao Qiyue, looking like she didn't know what Zhao Qiyue was talking about at all.
The queen who was sitting on the brocade couch let out a sneer, "Zhao Yujie, even now, do you still want to admit it?" Okay, then the palace will help you recall the past!"
Saying that, Zhao Qiyue waved his hand, "Come on, call this palace!"
"Queen Mother, the concubine has wronged ......" Zhao Yujie's face changed, and she hurriedly shouted, she knew Zhao Qiyue, the other party was not a grinding person, and if she said that she would fight, she would definitely fight, and maybe it would become a fight.
The two Yuan Shen Realm cultivators appeared in the hall when they heard the sound, they didn't pay attention to Zhao Yujie's reaction at all, and rushed up and pressed her to the ground, and the third Yuan Shen Realm cultivator immediately appeared, and without saying a word, the long stick talisman in his hand beckoned to Zhao Yujie's buttocks!
Syllable!
The sound was crisp, Zhao Yujie's body was really angry, and her face suddenly became more ugly and ugly.
"It's already the middle stage of the Yuan Shen Realm?" Zhao Qiyue's eyebrows sank, and Zhao Yujie's realm made her feel that the other party had become a big trouble, so her face turned cold, "Fight to the death!"
"Queen's ......"
Syllable!
The cultivator who carried out the execution used all his strength, and Zhao Yujie suddenly couldn't stand it, her delicate body trembled, and her face instantly lost blood.
Syllable!
Rao is Zhao Yujie gritted her teeth, but she couldn't control the churning of her viscera, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth, staining the floor red.
Syllable!
Another mouthful of blood spit out, Zhao Yujie couldn't bear it anymore, let out a fox-like scream, her pupils began to dilute, her breath fell by half, and her face was dead and gray.
Syllable!
With the spasms of her body, Zhao Yujie's buttocks were already peeling open, and she was no longer vomiting blood, and the blood she vomited out of her mouth never stopped.
Her mind gradually blurred, and Zhao Qiyue, who was sitting on a brocade couch with a murderous face, had a lot of ghosting, as if she had become extraordinarily tall.
Zhao Yujie realized in fear that Zhao Qiyue really wanted to beat her to death!
She is a concubine, even if Zhao Qiyue is the queen, according to the rules, she can't take her life at will, and she is also deeply favored by Song Zhi, but Zhao Qiyue in front of her obviously has no concern about anything!
"This palace gives you one last chance, if you are willing to admit your identity, this palace may spare your life. Zhao Qiyue's voice did not have the slightest emotion.
Zhao Yujie knew that if she was beaten twice, her life would be gone, and only by admitting it at this moment could she get a chance to survive. Only if you are alive can you talk about the future, if even your life is gone, even if Zhao Qiyue is punished by the emperor afterwards, what does it have to do with her?
Zhao Yujie never thought that Zhao Qiyue would be so ruthless!
She wanted to live, she didn't want to die here today.
But she didn't speak.
"Keep fighting! If you die, there is this palace around!" Zhao Qiyue's voice revealed resolute killing intent.
Syllable!
Zhao Yujie opened her mouth, but only blood gushed out, and there was no other sound.
She felt the world shattered, and her soul was about to leave her body.
But she decided to insist.
Her position today, everything she has, was earned by trying her best to give up everything, and if she gave it up, she would have nothing. admits her identity as Zhao Yujie, will Zhao Qiyue really let her go?
Just when the life-killing stick was about to fall and Zhao Yujie was about to be scattered, an angry and anxious shout broke into the Lizheng Palace: "Stop me!"
If it weren't for this voice coming in time, Zhao Yujie would definitely die today.
When ordering Zhao Yujie to come to the Lizheng Palace, Zhao Qiyue sent people to control Zizhu Palace and all the eunuchs and palace maids under Zhao Yujie's command, so as to prevent Zhao Yujie's people from passing the news to the emperor.
But the emperor still came.
Obviously, this is the emperor secretly sending people to keep an eye on the harem and deliberately protect Zhao Yujie.
Song Zhi, who strode into the Lizheng Hall with a black face, didn't know who he was saving at this time, and he didn't know what kind of consequences his actions would bring him in the future.
......
Bianliang.
Zhao Ning lived in Zhao Zhengji's house in the city, although he liked the scenery on the river very much, but it was always a little inconvenient to bump around the boat all day long, smelling the fishy smell that would never dissipate.
Two days later is the New Year's Festival, but Bianliang is not calm, in addition to the daily liveliness, the regimental training envoy has arrived in the city, began to recruit homeless young people with great fanfare.
The other party plans to spread the emperor's kindness to the displaced people as much as possible before the arrival of Chinese New Year's Eve, so that more displaced people can have a good year, and seize the time to be grateful to the emperor.
"During this time, the government is making every effort to arrest and punish Zhang for causing trouble in Xinghua Village. Shuizhai Zhang is not good to go back and stay, and he will fight with Gongzi in the future, and I hope that Gongzi will not dislike it. Zhang Jing clenched his fist at Zhao Ning.
Speaking of this, he couldn't help sighing, the water village is his foundation, and the three thousand young people under his command are also the flesh of his heart, and now he feels extremely sad that it is gone.
Although he was ready to lose something when he attacked the township, when the matter came, he could no longer lead more than 10,000 subordinates, and the order and prohibition were all answered, which still made him mentally depressed.
Zhao Ning beckoned, Hu Honglian put a bottle of elixir in front of Zhang Jing, and in his puzzled gaze, Zhao Ning said: "This is Yuqiong liquid, which can change your appearance." ”
Zhang Jing was stunned at first, and then panicked, "Childe wants to drive me away? Childe refuses to take Zhang in?"
If he follows Zhao Ning, he doesn't need to change his appearance at all, Zhao Ning is enough to protect him, only by expelling him and not wanting to see him caught by the government, will he change his appearance.
Zhao Ning shook his head: "Shuizhai is your foundation, there are thousands of young and strong, you can't give up easily, this time the regimental training envoy recruited homeless people to join the army, and you just took your men into the barracks." ”
Zhang Jing was stunned again, "The people who are willing to collect the water village in the group training?"
Zhao Ning smiled: "You, the bandit leader, ran away, and the dragons in the water village have no leader, so they will naturally scatter as birds and beasts - you can also arrange a river gang to compete for the position of the big boss, but the drama of everyone splitting creates the illusion that some leaders are dead."
"Except for the first evil and the main leader, the other displaced officials will not pursue it, nor will they refuse to recruit the young and strong among them, after all, ordinary displaced people are coerced, which is forgivable, and the purpose of the new army is to absorb displaced people to stabilize the place, and if you don't deal with it properly and exclude you, it is to sit back and watch the hidden dangers exist.
"When you enter the barracks, you need to conceal your cultivation in the early stage, be careful, and in order to ensure that there is no prestige leader among your people, the regimental training envoy will definitely conduct several screenings, and I will also give you some hidden cultivation pills. After passing the screening, you have to behave well and fight for the rank of general officer. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Jing's eyes lit up, and the whole person was so excited that his face was red.
In this way, he did not have to lose his subordinates, and he became an official of the dynasty, and he no longer had to worry about being strangled by officers and soldiers in the future.
That is, the person who knows that he has changed his appearance must be strictly restricted, and it is best that only a few henchmen understand the inside story.
And as long as these henchmen become generals in the future, master the ministry, and are willing to listen to his orders, then his status will not change much.
After Zhang Jing followed Huang Yuandai down to discuss the specific actions, Yang Jiani glanced at Zhao Ning, and said meaningfully: "Among the river bandits under Zhang Jing's command, there are many brave people, and the elite also have cultivation, and they will definitely have a good position in the new army in the future."
"You have installed Zhang Jing in the new army, and if things are not harmonious in the future, I am afraid that the new army of this imperial court will become your new army, right? Even if Zhang Jing's people can only control part of the strength of the new army, it will be very useful. ”
Zhao Ning smiled slightly, noncommittal.
Yang Jiani continued: "There are many displaced people in the world, and if nothing else, there will be more and more conscription troops like the Bianliang New Army.
"And in the past few years, as long as we continue to walk in all directions, preemptively show favor to the homeless, subdue the leaders of the homeless, or simply put the manpower of Yipinlou into the homeless, so that they can become new army generals and colonels by gradually revealing their strength, and rely on the silver given by the long river boat line, and fight for righteousness and wealth and make friends with heroes in the army, then many of the newly recruited troops of the imperial dynasty will turn from the emperor's minions into knives in your hands!
"This is an extremely terrifying force!"
Speaking of this, Yang Jiani's eyes looked at Zhao Ning, and once again became sharp and unpredictable: "Until now, you still don't admit that you plan to rebel?"
Zhao Ning patted his forehead painfully: "Don't talk about rebellion in the future, I told you that I am just fulfilling the responsibility of the Zhao family." All the things I am doing now are just means that I have to use for this purpose, and I may not be above board, but I have no intention of being unpredictable. ”
Yang Jiani said that she was rebellious at every turn, which made Zhao Ning very helpless.
This means that he knows that the other party is pure-minded, free and easy, not bound by so many rules, and he is becoming more and more unobtrusive in front of him, otherwise he has to sew up the other party's mouth.
