How do you know, Xiao Daoling looked at Lin Hai with a cold smile and sneered: "Lord Lin, don't you think that there is no black sheep in the family? If one day falls to the end of Situ Gong, I hope that Hugh will regret it. ”

Xiao Daoling's words made Lin Hai speechless.

Although what Xiao Daoling said is indeed not listening, it also has some truth.

As Xiao Daoling said, behind every high-ranking official there is a huge and incomparable family.

These families will all have some kind of relationship with the local government to a greater or lesser extent.

Either in times of crisis, borrowing grain to buy grain, or the family needs to buy land, or in the case of paying taxes.

The people of the family who have done a lot of these things have abundant wealth in their hands, and naturally want to fill their pockets.

As soon as they came and went, they colluded with local governments and secretly committed unrighteous things.

But these high-ranking officials present may not know that they can't blame these ignorant officials just because of the behavior of one or two rat droppings in the family.

It's just this, Lin Hai naturally can't say it above the court.

Once even he chooses to turn his back on Xu Jing, the situation in the court will only fall to Xiao Daoling's side.

Even if the emperor can temporarily suppress it by bloody means, it can't erase the anger in the hearts of hundreds of officials.

Once the time is long, the thoughts of the monarchs and ministers will deviate from the Great Qian's court, and it will be useless.

"How? What does Lord Lin have to say? ”

Xiao Daoling asked with a sneer, staring at Lin Hai.

"As the prime minister, the old minister should respect His Majesty. Your Majesty said that the hundred officials are guilty, then they are guilty! ”

Lin Hai did not answer Xiao Daoling's question directly, pushed everything on Xu Jing, and used imperial power as an answer.

"The old man understands, Lord Lin is planning to rely on His Majesty?"

The smile on Xiao Daoling's face became even brighter.

Lin Haigu said that his behavior fell into the eyes of hundreds of officials, and it was a loss!

In this game, it was he Xiao Daoling who had the upper hand!

"Since you think that the accounts in front of you are not true. I don't mind sending someone to take some time to sort it out. ”

"If there were still people involved in the ledger at that time, I wouldn't have kept my hand."

Xu Jing looked at the complacent Xiao Daoling and frowned slightly, interrupting Xiao Daoling's self-absorption and coldly scolding the officials present.

"Your Majesty just do what you want. The old minister will only help! ”

Xiao Daoling smiled coldly and said nonchalantly.

"But what else?"

Xu Jing looked at Xiao Daoling's color was extremely cold.

If it weren't for the fear that killing a prime minister in the current dynasty would make the Manchu scholars frightened, Xu Jing would have already raised a knife and cut off the old horseman's head as a ball.

"Your Majesty, it will be the Lantern Festival in the near future, and it is customary to summon the vassal kings from all over the country to enter Beijing, and the envoys from all over the world will also come to worship."

"It's just, ....... this year"

The Ministry of Etiquette, who was in charge of arranging the etiquette for the Lantern Festival, suddenly stepped forward and said cautiously.

"How's it going this year?"

Xu Jing's brows furrowed slightly, and some bad premonitions rose in his heart.

"This year, there are only three vassal kings who have entered the post station, and the only envoys who have come to worship are the Ryukyu and the Thirteen Kingdoms."

"The rest of the missions and the vassal kings are ......."

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu trembled and shrank his head to look at Xiao Daoling above his head.

"The rest of the envoys and vassal kings are all going to accompany the capital, right?"

Xu Jing smiled coldly and took the words of the Ministry of Rites to complete.

"Your Majesty! Now that the number of people coming is scarce, I wonder if the honor guard will be cut by a few points this year? ”

The Ministry of Rites replied with a nod and a wincing face.

At the same time, he cautiously asked Xu Jing if he wanted to reduce the scale.

"Why downsize? Just do it on the scale of previous years. ”

Xu Jing asked expressionlessly.

"But this year's number is not even 12 out of 12 in previous years. If you forcibly ......"

What the Ministry of Rites Shangshu wants to say is that if you forcibly follow the specifications of previous years, you will have to die to save face and suffer the crime.

Now that the treasury is not rich, and there is no image of submission of ten thousand dynasties this year, why waste money?

But these words, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu did not dare to say.

Now Xu Jingke is angry, and he deliberately mentioned these things not to scold.

"Needless to say, just do what you did in previous years. Since the mission does not come, the whole city will be blessed over there. I want to rejoice with the people. ”

"All the surplus will be given to the people of the city, and everyone will have a share."

Xu Jing's expression was cold and he said slowly.

"Do the holy thing."

The Ministry of Rites replied with a nod of his head.

"You still have something to do, you have something to report, and you have nothing to retreat!"

Xu Jing exhaled a breath of turbidity, looked up at the officials around him and asked coldly.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

As Xiao Daoling spoke, the hundreds of officials behind him shouted together.

Xu Jing's eyes were cold, and he walked from the dragon chair towards the inner palace.

"Uncle, today's new emperor can be regarded as a bitter end! It's really relieving! ”

On the carriage, Xiao Longbow came to Xiao Daoling's side and said very happily.

Xu Jing has always been high, once upon a time he ended up like this?

But today, not only do the vassal kings of various places not give face, but the envoys of other countries also do not give Xu Jing, the new emperor, half face.

made this unruly new emperor fall a big heel.

"How's that going?"

Xiao Daoling was expressionless and asked about the thing that had been planned for a long time.

"Uncle just rest assured, this matter has been prepared. Tomorrow in the middle of the night, I will take action. ”

"If the new emperor doesn't plan to step out of the East Palace, we naturally won't have the slightest way to deal with him."

"But as long as this guy doesn't know how to step out of the East Palace, the little nephew can let him die on the road!"

The color of the Xiao longbow was cold, and he said triumphantly.

"Remember, this matter must not be involved in the Xiao family, and these must be pushed on foreign clans."

"Anyway, now many foreigners have gone to accompany the capital, disguising this matter as a joint act of the capital and the envoys of various ethnic groups. What can he do with Xu Jing? Don't you want to eat this dumb loss hard? ”

Xiao Daoling smiled coldly and said very proudly.

"Uncle deserves to be the prime minister! This trick is really good to kill people with a knife! The little nephew will improve the plan, and it will be seamless, that is, the new emperor will dig three feet into the ground and never want to find out that this matter is related to the Xiao family. ”

Xiao Longbow smiled secretly and said slowly.

"Well, go ahead. Try to make this thing look good. ”

Xiao Daoling nodded expressionlessly.

"Little nephew understands."

Xiao Longbow nodded confidently and said seriously.

On the other side, Xu Jing, who returned to the East Palace, had an extremely cold face.

"If the vassal kings of various places do not come, the envoys will also go straight to accompany the capital. It is clear that he does not take him, the new emperor, in his eyes. ”

This kind of anger in Xu Jing's heart could not be dissipated for a long time.

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body, it hurts your body."

Gonggong Cao cautiously reminded Xu Jing.

"What have you done in the capital recently?"

Xu Jing suppressed his anger and looked at Gonggong Cao on the side, and suddenly asked.

Xu Jing knew about Xiao Daoling and the group of vassal kings, during the Shangyuan Festival, the curfew in the city was lifted, and every household went to the street to parade the lantern festival.

At that time, the entire capital will definitely be mixed, and if they want to do something, they will not miss such a good opportunity.

"No, Your Majesty is worried about what you will do?"

"Do you want to immediately send the Jinyi Guard to loot the whole city? I believe there will be gains. ”
