Chapter 986: I'm Measured

Emperor Xuanwu never imagined that such a good answer to his exam questions for the prince would come out.

Although the Xuanwu Emperor had the strength to strengthen the armament of the Xuanwu soldiers, the dispatch of hundreds of thousands of ordinary soldiers would cost astronomical wealth.

The originally abundant treasury wanted to suddenly send a large number of troops in a short period of time, and it was foreseeable that it was not only overstretched, but also empty.

Send corrupt officials to accumulate wealth and absorb the resentment of the people. Then the imperial court sent people to clean up this kind of corrupt officials, and with the help of public opinion, the people were released from public anger. It's so easy to get two birds with one stone.

Emperor Xuanwu did not have any psychological burden on this kind of thing, after all, how many good people could be able to become the monarch of a dynasty?

It is also the fact that the heir of the prince of Qi has a thin bloodline, so that a good person like the prince can succeed to the throne. Otherwise, if you have a few more, it will inevitably be the bad guys who will have the advantage. Because there is no psychological burden, it is less condemned by conscience, and the means of doing things are all-encompassing.

Is the plot of using corrupt officials to accumulate wealth and settle grievances Mo'er's masterpiece? At first, Emperor Xuanwu was so happy that he could not imagine that his son could come out of blue and be better than blue, and that his son could come up with a good idea that even a father could not think of.

But soon, Emperor Xuanwu realized that this idea was not Dugumo's masterpiece.

If it was his masterpiece, why wait until the next day to return it to me?

Of course, it's because when he goes back, he can meet a wise man!

Zhou Zhiruo: It's definitely the idea that this girl came up with.

If you want to be able to stand side by side with Xiao Ruoyao of Qi State, it is estimated that only Zhou Zhiruo is the only one in the world. Even my precious daughter, Princess Qing, is slightly inferior. Emperor Xuanwu knew very well how capable Zhou Zhiruo would be.

This plan to accumulate wealth and calm the anger, if it is said that it was from Prince Mo, it is a surprise. But if Zhou Zhiruo came out, Emperor Xuanwu felt that it was really so.

Emperor Xuanwu sat down and muttered again: "Yin is prosperous and yang is declining, yin is prosperous and yang is declining!" Could it be that conspiracy is called conspiracy because women are better at it?"

Mr. Peng, who was standing beside him, had a weak heart and did not dare to speak lightly.

After a moment's pause, Emperor Xuanwu muttered again: "It's a daughter's body." Otherwise, you really have to kill her to be at ease. ”

Manager Peng's sharp voice quipped: "Is the emperor talking about Zhou Zhiruo or Xiao Ruoyao?"

"Of course it's Zhou Zhiruo. Emperor Xuanwu smiled and said, "The submission I received mentions a brilliant plan. If this is the work of a man, then this person must be removed before I abdicate. ”

"Oh, why did the emperor make a decision?" said Chief Peng with a puzzled expression.

In fact, Mr. Peng understands it in his heart. This is Emperor Xuanwu's fear that the crown prince will not be able to get this kind of man, and he may be usurped by the court.

"Huh. Emperor Xuanwu didn't know whether he understood that General Manager Peng was pretending to be stupid, or he didn't bother to explain, so he just smiled and said, "But now I can basically be sure in my heart that it was Zhou Zhiruo who made this kind of plan." If it weren't for her, no one would have helped Mo'er come up with such a clever plan. ”

"I see. Manager Peng looked half-understood. At the monarch's side, it is taboo to figure out everything.

"Is the eldest prince waiting for the prince's book to be handed over?" asked Emperor Xuanwu.

Mr. Peng immediately went to collect it, and within half a cup of tea, he had already taken all the things.

Emperor Xuanwu glanced at Chief Peng Da. smiled: "Are you optimistic about Mo'er?"

Chief Peng broke out in a cold sweat, and on the surface, he still pretended to be confused and asked, "What is the emperor?"

He was the first to hand over Prince Mo's book before, naturally because he fully considered the reason for taking refuge in Prince Mo. He believed that with Zhou Zhiruo's help, Prince Mo's book presentation must be the best. As long as they looked at him first, the other princes' answers were not eye-catching. Now he is more sure in his heart, but he didn't expect to be seen by Emperor Xuanwu.

"Prudently. Emperor Xuanwu said coldly, and he no longer dwelled on this kind of thing. Although it is a big taboo for the courtiers to take refuge in advance, this can be regarded as giving General Manager Peng a face. By the way, he was slapped with a stick and ordered him not to be partial again.

Manager Peng's heart was pounding, and he almost collapsed to the ground in fright. Emperor Xuanwu is worthy of being a very wise and wise generation of heroes. You can see everything in every detail. His little action was seen by the other party.

It's good to spare himself for the sake of decades old courtiers, but General Manager Peng is really worried that this matter will fall out of favor, and even worry about his life.

Fortunately, Miss Zhou cured Emperor Xuanwu's heart fatigue. Chief Peng secretly called a fluke. If Emperor Xuanwu still has this disease, I am afraid that he will be upset and irritable, and he will never have the current state of dragon face and joy. If you find out about this in a bad mood, you are afraid that you are definitely in danger.

Think of this possibility. Manager Peng felt a little grateful to Zhou Zhiruo, and felt that this girl was not to mention beautiful, even people could be called a blessed girl. Those who are involved with her seem to have a lot of luck.

He is like this, and Prince Mo is even more lucky.

Before getting Zhou Zhiruo's assistance. Dugu Mo is so pitiful. But since Zhou Zhiruo served as a staff member to give advice, Prince Mo has risen from a defeated general who was almost seized of his title to become the number one candidate for the crown prince.

This is the legendary Wangfu Xiang, right? Chief Peng thought wildly for a moment. But I soon realized that it was not appropriate, and it was more appropriate to say that it was a blessed girl, a lucky general, or something like that.

Emperor Xuanwu read the submissions of the rest of the princes, and abandoned a few honest children who did not provide an employment plan at all, and the remaining few knew that there were no new ideas at all to state their own concepts.

All of them are merit-based and moral, and those who pay attention to being officials must be honest and honest, and they must be open-minded.

"A bunch of stupid people!" Emperor Xuanwu pushed the other princes, including the eldest prince, off the ground, completely bothered to look at them anymore, and said angrily: "Reading is dead! A bunch of nerds! Do you treat all the officials in the world as saints? If you are a saint, how can you become an official?"

"What the emperor said is extreme. "General Manager Peng responded again and again.

"Alas, such a group of sons is not as good as a woman who understands the principles of governing the world. Emperor Xuanwu shook his head and sighed helplessly.

He looked at the document handed over by Prince Mo, and read a very quintessential sentence in it: "Using this method of corrupt officials to accumulate wealth can be described as raising the treasury, not as raising corrupt officials." Civilian grievances are better than killing corrupt officials. Raise first and then kill, such as pigs and dogs. Therefore, it is said that corrupt officials are like pigs and dogs. If the people call it so, and the king sees it as such, it is truly pathetic. ”

Mr. Peng listened, and his heart was quite uncomfortable.

Corrupt officials have always been arrogant, thinking that if someone is behind them, they can fly high, but in fact, no matter above or below, they are treated as pigs and dogs. It's pitiful......

The more Emperor Xuanwu thought about it, the more interesting it became, and he actually laughed at this moment: "Laughing and scolding, with a compassionate tone, it is definitely the writing of Zhou Zhiruo's eccentric girl." ”

After a while, he beckoned: "Go and call the girl." ”

Emperor Xuanwu considered taking the test for Princess Qing.

If you are active, you can consider letting her help manage the government.

It's just that Emperor Xuanwu didn't expect that his decision would directly affect the future trend of the Wu Kingdom.

Wu Zhe's concept of raising corrupt officials as if raising the treasury actually began to make Princess Qing embark on the same path of auxiliary government as Wu Zetian in the early days......

Wu Zhe rubbed his nose in Prince Mo's mansion.

Why do you feel like you want to sneeze? Who's talking about me?

She had just gotten up and was going to find Princess Qing to go to the Xuanwu camp for a walk.

When I arrived at the palace, I walked around and went in.

Now she can come and go as she pleases the palace.

She fooled around with Concubine Zhuang again, and was satisfied with wearing another half of a green hat for Emperor Xuanwu, except for her tired fingers, she went to find Princess Qing refreshed.

I don't want Princess Qing to be there. Wu Zhe immediately regretted why he didn't use the sight of the two pets to see the situation in advance, and ran away in vain.

However, the little wild boar Liangya sensed Wu Zhe's arrival early, and took the initiative to run out of Changqing Palace, pestering Wu Zhe to jump up and down. It wasn't until Wu Zhe helped it scratch its belly and make it lie on its back on the ground and make a fuss.

"You're getting more and more like a dog. Wu Zhe picked up the little wild boar, slapped it on the buttocks, and looked at Hai Dongqing.

Hai Dongqing looked at the little wild boar with disdain, but when it walked under its wings to continue nesting, it still did not refuse.

"Okay, you'll be your good wife. Wu Zhe said goodbye to Haidongqing with a smile and waved goodbye to the two pets.

The palace maids and eunuchs in Changqing Palace also sent Wu Zhe away.

Wu Zhe took a carriage to the Xuanwu camp by himself.

The soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp hurriedly greeted them, and the female general Qiu also came out quickly: "Ah, Commander Zhou." ”

"I'm here today to find someone to fight. As soon as Wu Zhe opened his mouth, he startled the Qiu Nu General.

"I've practiced a little Xuanwu, so I want to do something with your Xuanwu soldiers. Wu Zhe explained.

This is called explanation? Practice some Xuan Qi? What is this called?

The girl general and several female guards around her were panicked when they heard this.

Qiu Nu did not cultivate Xuanqi deeply, and looked at the female guards with the highest level of Xuanwu around her.

The female guard in her fifties was a seven-star Xuan Qi master, and she was also relatively outstanding among female warriors.

The old guard slowly felt the Xuan Qi of the deputy commander opposite, and couldn't help but be stunned: "You only have the Xuan Qi Initial Level?"

"That's right. It should be called the first sprout of Xuanqi, right? I just learned it last night. Wu Zhe nodded.

Poof-

The crowd almost choked.

Qiu Nu was quite familiar with Wu Zhe the day before yesterday, and said in a low voice: "Commander Zhou, you are just beginning to sprout, so you plan to do it with others." In case you get hurt......"

Wu Zhe patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured." ”

Everyone sweated.

The Qiu Nu said weakly: "No, I mean you don't get hurt yourself......" (To be continued......)
