Chapter 143: A Good Rain
"It's raining. ”
In the capital, in a mansion, a group of famous people in Beijing and several representatives of the Beijing family are gathering together.
Looking at the sudden heavy rain outside, everyone's expressions were a little playful.
One of them, who happened to be sitting by the window, looked a little lazy, smiled and stretched out his hand out of the window, while letting the rain wet his palm, and said jokingly: "It seems that this disaster is really caused by that Cui Xiangye, just after he died, he fell with rain." ”
"Hmph, the induction of heaven and man is not a lie. ”
A Confucian celebrity snorted coldly when he heard this.
The other celebrities also nodded.
Another representative of the family said unhurriedly: "I'm afraid this may not be a good thing." ”
"It's not a good thing, although the rain is a little late, it is finally not a harvest. ”
Another Confucian celebrity thought that this person was talking about the rain, looked up at the rain curtain outside the window, and sighed slightly.
The representative of the family smiled, "Yu Gong misunderstood, what I said was not this rain, but the meaning of this rain." ”
As he spoke, his gaze swept over the crowd: "Have you forgotten the story of Sejong?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed, and they all immediately understood what he meant.
What's the story?
It is nothing more than a state-owned disaster that compares to the prime minister.
To say that His Majesty Shizong is definitely the most influential generation among the emperors of Great Qin, even above Taizu of Great Qin.
There are also different opinions about its merits and reputations.
Not to mention anything else, that is, the family in this world is both respectful and afraid of this Emperor Sejong.
Even if so many years have passed, it has been several generations, and when it comes to it again, everyone still can't help but change color.
There is no way, His Majesty Sejong really killed the family too hard.
Speaking of Sejong, someone said in a trance: "Speaking of which, His Majesty Sejong is really similar to today's son." ”
As soon as this person said this, he immediately attracted the sneers of the people next to him, "Don't talk nonsense, how can today's little emperor be compared to His Majesty Sejong!"
Although His Majesty Sejong did kill too much, and there were many suppressions in our family, but even so, we have to admit that he is really a generation of emperors, and he is eloquent and strategic, and he surpasses Taizu.
It is my Great Qin to this day, although it is decaying, it is still able to maintain martial virtue, so that the barbarians of the Quartet dare not peep with their eyes, and it is also thanks to that Yu Ze.
What does the little emperor compare with that one today? ”
When he said this, everyone also laughed, and even the one who said "similar" before was a little embarrassed, and forcibly explained: "I didn't say anything else, but I just said that the current emperor and Sejong were both powerful ministers at the beginning of his reign, and then he was able to control the government by eradicating the powerful ministers, isn't it very similar?"
"Poof, that's too much of a resemblance. ”
Hearing him say this, the person next to him smiled again, shook his head and said with some contempt: "Although it is true that they are all powerful ministers at the beginning of the throne, can Cui Cen's generation be compared with Wang Fen at the beginning?"
Wang Fen was called the real power of the government and the opposition, not only was he quite famous among the people, but also the hundreds of officials in the court could be said to have done their best, even Shizong wanted to get rid of one or two small officials, and he had to ask, 'The king has not eliminated the officials, I also want to get rid of the officials', what a power!
Cui Cen's generation shrank back and shrank, except for one or two private soldiers in his hands, there was no soldier or a single soldier, how could he compare. ”
"Hehe......"
Everyone couldn't help but chuckle when they heard this.
Seeing this, the man couldn't help but shake his head and sneered: "Today's little emperor, although the powerful ministers are removed, it may not be possible to control the government.
Not to mention that there is still a rebellion of the Seven Kings in the southeast, that is, although the rain is falling, this disaster has not been eliminated, and this year's summer grain will not be harvested at most.
It's those displaced people who have lost their land, if our family doesn't take over, what can he do with them?"
Speaking of this, this person leaned back quite complacently, and said slowly: "And now our family is not the beginning.
The little emperor actually wants to extort money and food from us, hmph, do you really think that we will be slaughtered by him?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions couldn't help but become serious, because this is what they gathered here today.
Someone frowned and said: "Nangong Jun means that we will not deliver the money and food that I recognized before knocking, I'm afraid it's not okay?"
The person known as Nangong Jun sneered when he heard this, "Of course, do you really want to pinch your noses and recognize this blackmail?"
"Isn't this equivalent to tearing your face directly with the emperor?"
Someone couldn't help but be a little worried when they heard this.
Although the emperor sold his head directly in front of the palace gate before, this was a bit uncomfortable for them.
After all, they were also an endorsement to the emperor at that time, although they were passive, and they were suspected of being fooled.
But as a result, I didn't get any benefits, and I was blackmailed, and I didn't react much at the time, after all, being blackmailed is better than those who were directly taken down or killed.
But looking back, it feels a little unpleasant.
The more you think about it, the more you respond.
But if you want to say that you really have to pay the bill, everyone can't pull their faces when they come, and they are also worried that they will really provoke the emperor.
Nangong Jun smiled and said: "You think too much, I didn't say not to give, but when to give it, how to give it should be able to talk about it, after all, our family is not so rich, right?"
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but turn their heads and ears for a while.
Only an old man who sat on the top of the hand, put his hands on the top of the red sandalwood cane, closed his eyes slightly, as if he was asleep, and said nothing.
Everyone subconsciously looked at him, but he didn't seem to notice.
That Nangong Jun also glanced at the old man, and then smiled again: "Besides, do you really think that the emperor dares to turn his face?"
For example, today, the situation in the internal court is undecided, and there is a rebellion of the clan outside, and the treasury of the upper state has long been defeated by Cui Cen, and the natural disasters have not been eliminated, and the displaced people are everywhere.
At this time, does he dare to touch our family?
He is not afraid of the whole world ......"
This person just said "chaos", before the word "chaos" came out, his eyes suddenly burst out, and he looked down in shock, but saw an arrow in his chest piercing his chest.
The man's Adam's apple rolled as if he was swallowing something, but then opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were full of astonishment, surprise, disbelief, and fear.
In the whole room, everyone else was also stunned, and when they looked up, they saw that in the courtyard outside in the heavy rain, there was a team of samurai dressed in black flying fish costumes and a group of fans who were also dressed in black.
At the forefront of these men was a handsome and somewhat bewildering eunuch, and a young man with a longbow and a hideous scar on his face.
When everyone looked at him, this person still maintained the posture of shooting arrows with a bow.
There is no doubt that the arrow just now was shot from his hand.
"Jinyiwei and West Factory!"
Everyone instantly recognized the origin of these people, and they couldn't help but be shocked and inexplicable in their hearts, and even their brains couldn't turn around.
At the same time, the handsome eunuch, with his hands on the pergola, squinted at the sky, put it down for a long time, and said with a smile: "A good rain, it should rain for a while!"
