Chapter 265 There is a loan but no return, and the North Liang is against each other
"Looking at the land of Kyushu, Beiliang is the biggest obstacle on the road of your Northern Expedition, and returning the 100,000 army to Beiliang is undoubtedly adding another pair of wings to the tiger."
This is also where Zhao Juzheng is most at ease, Xiao Wuxin has thunderous means, but his heart is still not ruthless enough, he always has a charitable heart at critical moments, and he needs someone to beat him from time to time.
"Tuoba Yuan is my apprentice, and he became the Emperor of Northern Liang was also facilitated by me, I can't do this."
Xiao Wuxin still can't do that kind of thing to cross and tear down the bridge, his friend helped people in danger, and stabbed his friend with his backhand, how to behave is really despicable.
"You can think so, at least it proves that you're not broken to the bone." Zhao Juzheng was also more pleased, so he told him a cruel fact: "The apprentice Tuoba Yuan you once cultivated single-handedly, took advantage of the civil strife to plunder the land of the Great Zhou, and now the sixteen northern counties have been assigned to the territory of Northern Liang, do you really think he really helps you?" ”
"Tuoba Yuan used to be an innocent prince, but now he is a treacherous and cunning monarch. The price that the 100,000 army lent you is the sixteen counties, and even if you return the army to him, the sixteen counties will not be returned to you. ”
"There is no love between countries compared to Jin Jian's friendship, and some are just common interests. If you take something, you give it away, this is equivalent exchange, and you should know this truth better than I do. ”
"The real emperor is never burdened by friendship, let alone framed by other people's words, you have to be a monarch, leading the 20,000 people of the Great Zhou, any love for children will be a stumbling block for you, remember?"
Zhao Juzheng's words were like lightning bolts slashing on Xiao Wuxin's body, deafening and beautiful.
Xiao Wuxin shook his head: "The student remembers." ”
"To be an emperor is ruthless, but not ruthless, I hope you don't repeat the mistakes of Xiao Yuanshan, that's all I have to say, you still have a long way to go, I hope you will be a good emperor worthy of the world, let's go!!"
After the incident, the clothes are gone, and the merit and fame are hidden. This sentence is just right to describe Zhao Juzheng.
Far away, Xiao Wuxin shouted, "Dashuai, can we meet again?" ”
"See you soon."
From that day on, no one saw Zhao Juzheng again, and there was one less wise man who was full of learning and staying in the court, and there was one more old man fishing on the banks of the river.

The ancient enthronement ceremony is a grand event of a country, the rules are complicated, and the etiquette is cumbersome, which can really make people have two big heads.
The auspicious day is chosen, and the enthronement ceremony is as promised.
In the first step, the new emperor led the civil and military officials to worship heaven and earth and the ancestral hall, and the Ministry of Rites announced the enthronement matters.
The second step is to wear a crown dress and go to the main hall of the council, accept the kneeling of hundreds of officials, and inherit the jade seal of the country.
The third step is to announce the world and promulgate the era name.
The ceremony seems to be only three simple steps, but the twists and turns inside are enough to confuse, and in the whole process, even how the emperor and the hundred officials walk, how many steps to walk have clear regulations. In addition to this, such rules as the transit locusts are too numerous to mention.
Xiao Wuxin, as a traverser, was deeply persecuted by the feudal world, no wonder it is not unreasonable to want rural revitalization now, it is necessary to change customs first.
After a whole day, Xiao Wuxin only felt that his body was hollowed out, and he crawled on the dragon couch and slept for a day and a night.
From that day on, the Great Zhou Dynasty ushered in a new emperor, the era name was "Xuanzhao", and Xiao Wuxin was also called "Xuanzhao the Great".
......
After a few days of correction, Xiao Wuxin started his first ascension.
The civil and military officials had been waiting in the side hall for a long time, and shouted with the eunuch on duty: "Go to the court~~"
And they all tidied up their clothes and came to the top of the main hall in turn. Subsequently, according to the plan in advance, Xiao Wuxin promulgated a series of policies to benefit the people.
Forced labor was halved in various localities, large-scale construction was banned throughout the country, and taxes were reduced for three years in counties and counties persecuted by disasters and rebels. After the promulgation of this policy, it has undoubtedly received strong support from the people.
In addition, Xiao Wuxin created an unprecedented feat, that is, he opened up the "road to the poor".
Children of poor families can also enter the court as officials, that is, the military merit system.
"Martial artists can join the army and kill the enemy."
Previously, literati could participate in the imperial examinations, but martial artists were never promoted. As soon as this news came out, all the people in the world undoubtedly saw new hope. Of course, the price of this practice is to offend the children of the nobles.
The group of old scholars took the lead in opposition, they would not allow a group of reckless men to enter the court to stand shoulder to shoulder with them, but Xiao Wuxin gave a domineering response: "Anyone who opposes the change, punish the nine clans!" ”
At first, everyone didn't think so, and they all thought it was a joke of the new emperor, but it wasn't until the Cao family in Shanxi was slaughtered by the nine clans because of the obstruction of change. At that time, everyone suddenly woke up, and this Emperor Xuanzhao was really moving.
They wanted to rebel together, but the military power was in Xiao Wuxin's hands, and they could only swallow their anger and dare not oppose it in the open.
After the suppression of the old scholar clan, there was also a different atmosphere inside and outside the court, that is, the capable people lived there, and the court that was disturbed by Xiao Yuanshan in the past changed its vitality again.
Hundreds of officials are also happy to be in it.
However, a few months later, Xiao Wuxin encountered his first problem of becoming emperor, which was also one of the things that Zhao Juzheng said.
"Your Majesty! The envoys of the Northern Liang have arrived in Jinling!! ”
This news reached Xiao Wuxin's ears, and he knew better than anyone what the purpose of the Northern Liang envoy was this time!
100,000 troops of the Northern Liang!!
