Chapter 0378: Dream Realm

New emperor, new atmosphere.

Emperor Qing's biggest punishment for the King of Beijing was to take the opportunity to deal with a few heinous people, and of course confiscate money.

In the end, there were more than three million taels of silver in the inner treasury.

Emperor Qing sometimes doesn't understand that he is an emperor who can't wait to break a penny and spend it as a penny. Why are these big families so rich, it's as if they fell from the sky?

The next few times he saw it clearly, he and a few cabinet scholars had set up food, wine, armor and weapons for the border army.

Before waiting for the next day, that night, the grain, coal, and iron ore in the capital all rose sharply, and some even doubled several times, and then when various departments went to purchase, it was a pile of filth.

Rats! The entire court, if it is said that all of them were killed, it is a bit wronged, but if they kill one by one, it is estimated that there is no mistake in killing.

These people are damned!

But Emperor Qing finally endured it, firstly, this matter has existed since ancient times, and it is almost a convention, whether it is a big or small matter, there must be a group of people who take the opportunity to get rich.

People are not saints and sages, if there is no benefit and sweetness, do you guess these smart people will be loyal and serve the country?

Second, there are too many people involved, and there are even many of his own relatives and brothers, which is not easy to start.

As soon as the emperor left, he would fight against the same party and eliminate dissidents, and I am afraid that history will record that he has no tolerance for people in the future.

Sitting on the throne, for a long time, Emperor Qing felt that there were thousands of things in the world, and it seemed that there was a problem everywhere.

Floods, droughts, locusts, pestilences, enemies from the south to the north of the border, and the confiscation of the money seemed to be spent by the ministers for all sorts of reasons before they had been in the treasury for a few days.

According to them, if he didn't spend this money, it seemed that the court was going to die, and then he would be the king of the dead country.

But the money was spent, and Emperor Qing didn't seem to see any changes.

Hundreds of officials sing praises of virtue, and the world is peaceful, but Jin Wuwei everywhere is feedback, and the victims are everywhere, and the people in the world are not living except for the two Guangzhous.

There are even two rebel forces in various places: the Tianli Sect and the White Lotus Sect. These forces are said to have gathered together, but they broke through the city faster than his regular army.

This is outrageous.

He really couldn't understand how those emaciated civilians who couldn't eat enough could beat those armies with full armor and sharp weapons.

Playing him all day long?

It's good to love Qing Lin Ruhai, the land of the two wides, the people are millions, everyone can eat enough, and they can also subsidize a lot of silver to the imperial court every six months.

But the hundred officials' twists and turns to Lin Ruhai were also handed over like snowflakes, mainly because the means were deviant.

This Governor Lin is not like other officials, he talks and negotiates well with the local big households, he just does things.

All the families who delay the Governor's work, whether gentry or family, use only one trick: salute first and then soldier, in order to convince people.

If someone secretly sabotage, the governor does not pay attention to the rules, does not say that he slowly looks for any evidence, and will raid whomever he suspects, so that everyone in the local government is in danger.

Then Emperor Qing found that although the hundred officials said that the people of these two provinces had suffered for a long time, what Jin Wuwei handed over was that the people were doing well.

Could it be that the people mentioned by the hundred officials and the people as he understood them are not the same kind of people?

After that, Lin Ruhai's recital was also handed over, and there was only one sentence: In troubled times, you should use heavy codes, and you can only do things decisively.

Emperor Qing can understand it, but many of the things Lin Ruhai did in Liangguang were indeed different from the rules set by his ancestors, which made him very embarrassed.

He still remembered what the Emperor said to him before he died: The people can't be too bitter, too bitter will resist, but they can't eat too much, live too easy, so they will think more.

Who's right?

After being silent for a long time, Emperor Qing decided not to help each other.

He is the emperor, and being a good referee is to be a low-level referee in person.

"Tell me to go down, and in the future, as long as it is about the two Guangzhous, all of them will be left behind." Emperor Qing said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

.......

Jia Fu.

Jia Yu and Jia Zhen have done a lot of over the years, and they will naturally not let go of Emperor Qing's character of settling accounts after the autumn, and their estates, manors, etc., have all been confiscated.

Although it is said that people are dead, aren't these two dead yet?

This made the already financially constrained Jia family even worse, and Jia's mother wanted to eat a bowl of bird's nest every morning, and she had to think about it for a while.

It's too hard to live this day.

So, Jia's mother taught Jia Baoyu thousands of instructions all day long.

"Study hard, make progress every day, your future is the future of Jiafu, the family will please you!"

"When will you pass the imperial examination? If you don't pass the exam, Jiafu will be lonely, and what face will you have to see your ancestors in the future? You're afraid you don't have any, right? ”

"If you don't work hard, let alone those innocent ladies, even the maids in the house can't support them. If they are sick, you see that if you go to Lin Yatou for treatment, can you afford the consultation fee? ”

"Some people say, don't do it when you're tired! But do you dare to rest?

No one asks about the poor on the streets, but the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. If you don't believe it, look at the wine in the cup, the cup first respects the powerful, people have no money and no power, it's really not as good as a ghost, and the soup without salt is really not as good as water! ”

……

In the study, Jia Baoyu lay down for a while and got up to read, and fell asleep on the table after reading for a while, and woke up full of guilt after sleeping for a while.

It seems that after sleeping for a while, he is sorry for the whole family, and even sorry for himself.

In the end, even when he went out to play and recuperated with the maid, he felt guilty. Because it's a complete waste of study time.

Eat, not good; Sleep, not good; Play, not good. But this broken book, he really can't read it.

Why, why is the hope of the whole family pressed on him, just because he is a boy, just because he has been pampered since he was a child, and all the delicious food and fun are up to him?

I'm so tired, I'm so tired!

Lying on the bed with two sighs, Jia Baoyu even suddenly felt that this life was not interesting.

Is this Emperor Qing sick? Why do you have to target the Jia family? Why don't you trouble Sister Lin? She treated the young women at a time, but it was tens or hundreds of taels.

Suddenly, a burst of brilliance appeared on the treasure jade hanging from his neck, and after a tremble, he trembled again, and a text was projected in the void.

Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to ...... Is it truly alive? 】

[Yes/No.] 】

The words yes and no on it looked like a small piece, and the word 'yes' was bright red all over, emitting a blood-red glow, and it seemed that a voice whispered in his heart.

Pick it, pick it!

Jia Baoyu pondered for a moment, with the knowledge he had read of those miscellaneous articles, he knew that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and this matter is very strange.

Without hesitation, stick out your finger and choose no!

"Hum~" The air shook, and those words shone brightly and then converged into a whirlpool, and before Jia Baoyu could react, there seemed to be some strange force that sucked him in.

A moment later.

"Puff~" The body left in place fell directly to the ground unconscious.

……

"Who am I and where is this? How did I get here? ”

Jia Baoyu, who slowly woke up, asked three questions about his soul, and then found that he was still in the original house, but everything here seemed to have changed.

The dΓ©cor, the furnishings and even the walls seem to have aged a long time and are mottled.

Pushing the door out, the huge Jia Mansion was also dilapidated, desolate, and turned around, not to mention people, not even animals.

Fortunately, it was also a blue sky and white day here, otherwise he would have been thinking about washing his pants.

"Smack." "Ahh It hurts, stop fighting! "Smack!" "Ancestor, I was wrong!"

As if hearing a strange sound, Jia Baoyu turned in the direction of Ning Guofu, and as soon as he arrived at the main courtyard, he saw two old men beating Jia Rong, Jia Zhen and Jia Yu.

Without mercy, the three of them were beaten to the ground in a matter of moments.

"Presumptuous, in broad daylight, you dare to beat the emperor's relatives, you don't want to live!" Jia Baoyu stepped forward and scolded.

Although he is lazy, he has to say that he is bold, maybe this is the fearlessness of the ignorant.

The two old men looked up at this time, and when they saw Jia Baoyu, they were taken aback.

"How did you get in?"

Jia Baoyu looked at the two old men carefully, burly, although the whole body was coarse cloth, but the face was very familiar, it seemed to be a little similar to his father, and then carefully thought about it, it was exactly the same as the portrait of the ancestor of the Jia family on the ancestral hall.

Moreover, aren't Jia Zhen and Uncle Jia Yu both in a coma? So this is the Netherworld?

Suddenly, a chill arose from the soles of the son's feet, all the way from the butt door, the spine, and then directly to the top of the head.

Shame!

"Boy, I know you're scared, but don't be afraid. You should all know you, your ancestors, and your uncle, and they won't harm you.

Tell me what's going on, how did you get into our dream world? Rong Guogong asked strangely.

Jia Baoyu thought about it, with his strength, even if this was a fake ancestor, he couldn't beat it, it was better to take it seriously.

"Old Ancestor ......." The young man suddenly shouted affectionately, and then introduced himself and the situation of the Jia family.

After that, he learned more about what this place was.

This is the void world opened up by the Dream Lord, the dwelling place of the Yin spirits.

Originally, there was no reincarnation in this life, and when the living soul died, even if there was a strong grudge, it would survive for one night at most, and the next day the sun would shine and the soul would be scattered and dissipated between heaven and earth.

After that, the dream lord opened up this dream world with great perseverance and great mana.

The dream realm is vast, covering the entire Central Plains, if there are living beings who die and their souls do not disperse, they will be connected to this dream realm and continue to live.

Of course, there is a price to live.

That is, if the soul wants to continue to survive, it must absorb a thing called Dream Yuan Power in the dream world in order to maintain its body shape and consciousness.

Otherwise, it will not be long before the soul will gradually disappear from its memories and become a wandering spirit, until it finally dissipates into nothingness and becomes the cornerstone of replenishing this dream world.

And if you want to absorb the power of the Dream Yuan, you have to pay the price. The gold and silver mundane things in the mortal world are useless here, but they have to be used for the seven emotions and six desires of the living beings themselves, and the emotions of the living beings.

According to the system of the dream world, the anger generated by ordinary people who are angry for half an hour can be exchanged for a dream yuan power, which can keep the soul for a full day.

In addition to anger, the other seven emotions and six desires can be, greed, hatred, hatred, love and evil desires, these are the common currencies in the dream world.

"Uncle, if I have these so-called seven emotions and six desires, how can I collect them?" Baoyu was confused.

According to what the ancestors said, these dream money can not only be exchanged for dream yuanli, but also can be exchanged for anything by the omnipresent dream master, and can even be exchanged for the news of mortal relatives, and can do some things for mortal relatives.

In addition, the dream master is omnipotent in the dream world, as long as you dream of enough money, you can enjoy everything you want in this dream world, gold, silver, jewelry, power women, world food, divine weapons and martial arts, flying away...... Or even be the head of a dynasty.

The people inside are naturally those who can't continue to have seven emotions and six desires, and these people can find the dream master to owe a loan to get the dream yuan power on credit, with an annual interest rate of one cent.

Jia Yu's soul also recovered as before at this time, and his expression was unchanged.

All dream people are probably best at managing their emotions, and the result of squeezing their temper every day is that they will not be able to provoke mood swings in most situations.

"The power of the seven emotions of the red dust generated by the creatures in the dream realm will naturally be absorbed by the dream realm, and after that, you only need to silently recite 'Praise the dream master!' You can see the state of your soul and the amount of money you have in your dreams. Jia Yu said.

Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, it was so magical, and then he played with his heart and said silently: "Dream Lord Shabi? ”

"Insult the dream master, reduce the dream money by 50,000!"

Jia Baoyu: ......

Lin House, Garden.

Lin Daiyu, who was practicing calligraphy and doing things, suddenly laughed.

Xue Baochai was a little strange and a little angry: "Sister Lin, hmph, are you laughing at my poems yesterday?" If it's not good, just point it out, why laugh at me. ”

Lin Daiyu waved her hand: "No, I just remembered some funny things." ”

Xue Baochai just gave up, now that the palace has no business to do, she is also idle, King Beijing has always asked her to have more contact with Sister Lin, she happens to be fine, so she often comes to play.

I don't know if it's fate or coincidence, Yingchun and other women often come over. Mother Jia also sent someone last time to say that Sister Lin had gathered all the sisters, and she was becoming more and more lonely there.

Xue Baochai glanced around the courtyard, for some reason, although the rockery and rocks were generally arranged, it just made people feel relaxed and happy, and even breathing was a lot lighter.

"Quack, quack~" There is a frog chirping on the lotus leaves of the lake.

"Sister Nalin, let's use frogs as a poem, compare with each other!" Xue Baochai said confidently.

Lin Daiyu stroked Lele, who was sleeping on his shoulders, and he didn't know why, he was sleeping longer and longer recently.

"I'll come first."

As she spoke, the girl lifted the pen, dipped it in ink, and the pen walked away from the dragon and snake.

Xue Baochai walked over to take a look, and was shocked, only to see the last two sentences.

[I won't speak first in the spring, that insect dares to make a sound! 】

So domineering!

As a princess, Xue Baochai has a graceful bearing, but she feels more and more that this Sister Lin seems to be different from everyone.

There is a domineering spirit that looks down on the world.

"Miss Lin, Miss Lin, it's not good, Second Master Bao suddenly fell into a coma, and the old lady called you to take a look." Suddenly, a maid rushed in and shouted.

……
