Chapter Ninety-One: To the Star Dou
"Uncle, don't you know, in the past twenty years, the empire has been peaceful for a long time, and the greed for pleasure among the nobles has become increasingly prosperous, and corruption has been repeatedly prohibited, originally I thought things were still controllable, until this year when the empire encountered a crisis, I found that the original government has degenerated to this point!"
"Moth!" The Snowy Night Emperor was furious: "These imperial moths must be emptied of my Heavenly Dou!" ”
The Minister of the Interior hurriedly said: "It's the incompetence of the ministers, please ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”
"What does this have to do with you?" The Snowy Night Emperor said slowly: "Aiqing only took over the internal affairs last year, and freezing three feet is not a day's cold!" In this matter, Aiqing assisted the emperor to find out so many moths in the empire, not only was he not guilty, but he was meritorious! ”
The Snow Night Emperor glanced at Prince Xuexing, and then said coldly: "Pass the order, the former Minister of the Interior bent the law for personal gain, deceived the king, and was put on death row, and Ling Chi was executed!" All the men of his family were executed, and all the female dependents were confiscated! ”
"Yes!"
Prince Xuexing was sweating profusely, and the former Minister of the Interior was originally his political ally, who would have thought that this pig teammate would be so pitiful! However, as soon as he thought of what the Snow Night Emperor said about the confiscation of all his female dependents, Prince Xuexing's heart instantly reacted.
"Father, although the Minister of the Interior has made great achievements since accepting the internal affairs, the problem of government management is by no means an overnight achievement, and the most important thing at the moment is to solve the problem of the victims."
"Hmm!" The Snowy Night Emperor nodded, "I don't know what Aiqing suggests?" ”
Prince Xuexing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have a million Tiandou army, and the chaotic people are not worried, as long as we survive this year, the situation will definitely change greatly next year." ”
"Father!" Qian Lingxue said slowly: "Although the victims of the disaster can't shake the fundamentals, if they don't give relief and send troops to exterminate them, I'm afraid that my Tiandou will lose the hearts of the people." ”
The Snowy Night Emperor was in a dilemma for a while, although these untouchables at the bottom were insignificant, but if he mobilized a large army to exterminate him, it would damage his reputation.
Su Yuntao shook his head, in the Douluo Continent, civilians were powerless to fight back against the Heavy Armor Legion or even the Soul Master Legion.
Even if they unite to resist, it will not help at all, because the reason why there are successful examples of uprisings in another time and space is because there is no difference in their own strength between the nobles and commoners in that time and space, as long as the commoners can unite, in the vast sea of people, the nobles are only a weak group.
But in this time and space, the nobles are all soul master families, and they are born with the power that can absolutely overwhelm the civilians, coupled with the well-equipped army of one million Heaven Dou, there is no way for the civilians to rebel at all.
The rebellion of the common people in another time and space is kitchen knives against knives, guns and sticks, but the kitchen knives of the common people on the Douluo Continent have to face the heavy armor legion and even the soul master legion, and such a huge disparity in strength has exceeded the scope of manpower.
"Father, if you don't give relief, the surplus food in the hands of the people will be completely exhausted after the beginning of spring, although there are millions of troops and 10,000 soul masters in these disaster victims who can't make the climate, but once you choose to suppress it, I'm afraid that there will be endless troubles!"
"Endless troubles?" Prince Xuexing said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, it's just a few untouchables, what impact can killing them all." ”
Qian Ling Xue said calmly: "Uncle, have you forgotten the Martial Spirit Palace?" ”
"Martial Spirit Palace!" The Snowy Night Emperor's body shook violently.
"Father, once it is suppressed, I am afraid that the Martial Spirit Hall will take advantage of the weakness to win the hearts of the people in the world, and when that time comes, the trouble of the empire will be even greater."
"What the emperor said is true!" The Snowy Night Emperor made up his mind and said, "I, the people of the Heaven Dou Empire, naturally can't let them starve to death!" ”
"Your Majesty is clever!"
The corners of Su Yuntao's mouth rose slightly, "It seems that only the catfish of the Martial Spirit Hall can push the big nobles to do some personnel in the stagnant water of the Douluo Continent." ”
"All Aiqing, the cost of relief to the victims is huge, but now the treasury is empty, I don't know what good plan you Aiqing has?"
"This ......," Prince Snow Star was speechless for a moment.
"Humph!" The Snowy Night Emperor snorted coldly, this younger brother of his was not successful enough to fail, if he wasn't afraid that the throne would be gone, he would have killed this younger brother a long time ago.
"Father, my Heaven Dou Empire is very powerful, and there are countless wealthy merchants in Heaven Dou City, if you raise donations from these people, the relief funds raised must be very huge."
"The Emperor's Brilliant Plan! Snow Star! This matter will be handed over to you, and you will be limited to raising 300 million gold soul coins within a month to help the victims! ”
"Wechen obeys!" Prince Snow Star forced a smile on his face.
On the way back, Su Yuntao finally couldn't help laughing.
"Yuntao, what's wrong with you?" Qianyue said curiously.
"Qinghe, do you think you can raise 300 million gold soul coins by raising donations?"
"Although 300 million gold soul coins are a lot, there are countless wealthy businessmen in Heaven Dou City, and for their group of people, 300 million gold soul coins is actually nothing, and it shouldn't be difficult to raise."
Su Yuntao sighed, "Qinghe, although you have lived in officialdom for more than ten years, you haven't really seen the despicability of human nature!" ”
Qian Lingxue frowned slightly, and asked, "Yuntao, what do you think!" ”
Su Yuntao smiled, "Qinghe, how many Golden Soul Coins are in Your Majesty's private treasury?" I'm afraid it's more than a billion. ”
"That's true."
"Then do you think Your Majesty is willing to spend 300 million gold soul coins to help the victims?"
"This ......"
"Qinghe, in fact, the more people in high positions, the smarter, it is precisely because they are smart that they are shrewd in their calculations, in the hearts of this group of nobles, they can't wait for more and more money, more and more houses, how can they give up money for a group of untouchables!"
Qian Lingxue looked thoughtful, but still said: "Yuntao, they should still listen to the words of the empire, and besides, they may not be better off when the empire is in chaos." ”
Su Yuntao said with a smile: "Qinghe, there are tall people on top of the sky when the sky falls, unless this group of nobles puts a knife on their necks, you don't want to make them bleed." ”
"Yuntao, what you said is a bit serious, I think the nobles of the empire should not be short-sighted to this extent."
Su Yuntao patted Qian Lingxue's shoulder, "Qinghe, there are some things that you can only understand what is going on if you have experienced them yourself, let's wait and see the results of the fundraising." ”
Inside the manor on the outskirts of Heaven Dou City
Su Yuntao stretched, yawned, and slowly walked out of his room, and then a beautiful shadow appeared in front of his eyes.
"Dean, why are you here?"
"What? Not welcome? Shui Xinhan smiled.
"No, no, no, the dean came without prior notice."
"Yuntao, I've been purchasing food for the past few days, but I came to Heaven Dou City because of something temporary, and by the way, I also take a look at you, this little monster, Lao Yang and old poison."
"Little monster, wake up and eat, it's noon now, you can sleep." Yang Wushu smiled.
"There's no way, like the dean, I want to get some food to meet my moral needs, but I have done everything I need to do, and it is time to return to normal from today."
"That's right, Yin'er!" Su Yuntao didn't wash up, and directly turned on the dry rice mode.
"The old poison is free today, not doing his job! Take her to play. Yang Wushu said disdainfully.
Su Yuntao looked at the straight man of steel in front of him, Yang Wuving, and said speechlessly: "Old Yang, do you think it is useful to play with Yin'er?" ”
"It's useless!" Yang is invincible and unequivocal.
"Is Yin'er happy?"
"Happy!"
"That Yin'er has grown up to become a peerless powerhouse, who do you think she is closer to at this time!"
Yang Wushu's brain turned, and he instantly took the case, "What an old poison, he actually used this kind of small means to spoil Yin'er!" ”
Shui Xinhan on the side smiled slightly, Su Yuntao kept shaking his head, Yang Wuving, a straight man of steel, also has a fine brain when he meets Bai He, and he is in the mode of using guns and not using his brain on weekdays.
"Dean, how are Bing'er and Yue'er?"
"Their current cultural courses are in the final stage, and their cultivation time has been increasing."
"Dean, when do they have time, when will you bring them to Heaven Dou City, they have been studying, training, studying, training for the past few months, and you have been in retreat, Dean, so that I don't know what to do when I go back to Tianshui Academy."
Shui Xinhan sighed: "This is also something that can't be helped, sometimes a trace of slackness when you are young may become a lifelong regret in the future." ”
"I'm now at level eighty-nine soul power, and it's only a matter of time before I break through to Title Douluo, but breaking through one day earlier will give me a little more confidence in impacting the realm above level ninety-six, and few people can easily come down on the path of cultivation."
Shui Xinhan originally had eighty-seven levels of soul power, and after taking the ice crystal jade muscles and bones, not only the martial soul was repaired, but also the soul power was also increased to eighty-eight levels, and in the past two years, Shui Xinhan took advantage of the effect of immortal grass to further cultivate and became the peak Contra Douluo of level eighty-nine.
Su Yuntao took a sip of tea with a solemn face, Title Douluo seemed to have a lifespan far better than ordinary people, but after deducting the boring cultivation time, how much time would they have left to really enjoy life! Thinking of that Golden Crocodile Douluo, a person who is more than one hundred and fifty years old, he has been cultivating tirelessly.
"Dean, what's the matter with the Heaven Dou City you came to?"
"Ling Ling has broken through level forty, and I came to pick her up to get the soul ring."
Su Yuntao nodded, Ye Lingling is sixteen years old this year, she is born with eighth-level soul power, her talent is not top-notch, but she is definitely excellent, originally at this time, she should be at level thirty-five.
It's just that Su Yuntao left three spirit grasses to Ye Lingrong, plus Yang Wushu invented such a thing as an upgrade pill, under the washing of one or even maybe two spirit grasses, and with the upgrade pill, it is a matter of course to break through level forty.
"Little monster, we have a junior named Yang Lie, eighteen years old this year, not long ago under my tutelage also broke through the fortieth level, Dean Shui and I are going to go to the Star Dou Great Forest together, and take care of each other, I don't know if you want to go to the Star Dou Great Forest for a walk?"
"That's fine, I've been stuffy around Heaven Dou City for the past few months, and it's time to go outside."
