Chapter 201 Stabilizing the Situation

Let's go back to the day when King Qian relieved the siege of Jiankang.

As the main rebel force withdrew from Jiankang, many small groups of rebels in the city were captured or slaughtered.

The chaos in the city gradually subsided, and the people hiding at home also began to probe their brains to make sure that there was no danger outside before daring to go out.

Wenchen Xungui, who lived closest to the palace, opened the door of the palace and rushed to the palace with the escort.

In the palace, the reinforcements combed the palace and collected the corpses of the queen, the concubines and the princesses, and the hundred officials were late.

Looking at the palace that had been ransacked by the rebels, there was a mess everywhere, and the officials couldn't help but shrink their necks.

Entering the Qinzheng Palace, I saw a huge black coffin in the center, and the back row was full of more than a dozen coffins of all sizes.

Although the hundred officials had been prepared in their hearts, they were still shocked when they saw this formation, especially when they saw King Qian sitting next to the huge coffin.

"The ministers are too late to save the car, and the sin is unforgivable!"

The hundred officials tidied up their clothes and bowed three times and bowed nine times to the dark coffin.

Kneeling in front of him, Lord Zhang, raised his hand and wiped his tears with his sleeve, "The old minister deserves death, he didn't have time to save the emperor from fire and water, and let the emperor suffer this catastrophe, it is the minister's fault, and the minister did not do his duty as a courtier!" ”

The current servant shot to hear Lord Zhang's cry, and he couldn't cry himself, "It's all to blame for the cowardice of the old minister and his inability to turn the tide, Your Majesty, why didn't you insist on it more, won't you be safe when Prince Qian comes?" ”

The official Shangshu was even more crying, venting his inner fear, the fright he received today added up to more than the previous half of his life, and he scared the baby to death.

He has no problem venting his emotions in front of Emperor Mingxi's coffin, and he can also let others know how deep his feelings are for the emperor and his ministers.

King Qian sat beside the coffin and watched coldly.

What a civil and military official, a good "loyal minister and good general" of Dayu, the dead are great, knelt down to Emperor Mingxi, and turned a blind eye to him, right?

However, then again, it was the first time he knew that the big men in the court would cry their noses, and they would be so ugly when they cried!

The chief of the Qian Dynasty guard waved his hand.

"Gollum!"

Two heads rolled at the feet of the ministers.

Such an unexpected situation scared everyone!

"You know these two, right?" King Qian took a moment to admire the look of horror on their faces.

One of the heads that rolled down happened to be facing Lord Zhang, and the wide eyes of the dead man stared at Lord Zhang for a moment, so scared that he almost had a myocardial infarction!

"Lord Wang, this is Lord Shi!"

King Qian was very satisfied with the effect he had caused, "Yes, since this king left Lingnan, Zuo Servant has changed three terms, and he is the second after this king left. ”

The first was his father-in-law, that is, Hua Shaojin, the father of the eldest lady, who was later demoted to the border by Emperor Huiyuan because he offended Emperor Huiyuan.

"Are you curious about how he, a sinner who is degraded to an official, could have cut off his head here?"

Lord Zhang covered his frightened chest, "I hope that the prince will solve the doubts of the ministers." ”

King Qian looked at him and sneered, then looked at the ministers, "Emperor Mingxi once said before his death that if he is the king of the dead country, then you are the ministers of the dead country!" He will never give you the opportunity to be a slave of the third surname, so the emperor sent Lord Shi and Master Cui on the road before killing himself. ”

"This is the fate of the betrayers, even if the emperor has to deal with them before he dies, it can be seen that they have done a lot of evil things in their lifetime, which has made the emperor angry!"

That's why they won't let them go when they die.

The ministers' faces turned pale, and these words reminded them of what Emperor Mingxi said at the court meeting at that time.

The corners of King Qian's mouth hooked up a touch of sarcasm, "Ministers, are you here to kneel down to worship the emperor?" Where were you when the rebels attacked the city? Where were you when the rebels stormed the city? When the emperor was forced to kill himself by the rebels, where were you? ”

"Or do you want to be slaves of the country, so when Emperor Mingxi needs you to unite with the outside world, you are nowhere to be seen; Now the rebels have retreated, and you have come out. ”

"When the rebels invaded the city, you hid in your homes, and now that others have beaten the rebels away, you have reappeared." King Qian looked at them with a smile: "Do you think that the enemy has run away, and it is time for you to come out and pick ready-made peaches again?" ”

The faces of the ministers alternated red and white, and they were wonderful.

"Solution!"

"Lord Wang!"

"What are you waiting for, read the emperor's edict!"

I wanted to wait for Xia Jing's reply, but the situation in Jiankang did not allow him to delay.

Therefore, the edict can only be read out first now, so as to avoid arguing on the edict later.

The edict is the last wish of Emperor Mingxi to stay in this world, and the edict makes it very clear that Jiankang's imperial family ability is not enough to support Dayu's current situation.

Because the emperor himself had no heirs, and the other imperial heirs who stayed in Jiankang were even less capable, Emperor Mingxi passed the dangerous throne to King Qian.

The imperial power belongs to King Qian.

This god turned around, and the ministers were stunned!

"Long live my emperor!"

Lord Zhang, the head of the household department, was the first to stand in line, and he knelt down and bowed three times and bowed nine times, which was regarded as recognizing King Qian as the emperor.

"The minister does not dare to overstep, but for the sake of Dayu, Weichen only wants to be able to distinguish the authenticity of the edict!"

King Qian sneered, waved his hand, and handed the edict to Master Zhang.

The edict was circulated in the hands of the previous ministers, and everyone was sure that the edict was a genuine edict and not a forgery.

"Since the first emperor has passed on the throne to you, are we going to let Qin Tianjian choose an auspicious day to ascend the throne! However, according to the current situation, this auspicious day is as close as possible. ”

King Qian raised his hand to stop, "There is no hurry in this matter, I will wait for the princess to come to Jiankang when I ascend the throne." ”

Ministers: "."

Who can tell them that there are still people in the world who are not in a hurry to be emperors?

Since there is no hurry to make him emperor, then they will recover their belongings first.

"Long live my emperor!"

"Your Majesty, the ministers' mansion has been looted by the rebels, and it is said that the rebels have not had time to transport these belongings out?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers and other ministers have suffered heavy losses, this is the list of the belongings of the Weichen family."

It's just that he wanted to present the list to the front of the emperor, but neither Anu nor King Qian did anything on the scene.

"Your Majesty, if these belongings can't be recovered, the ministers and hundreds of mouths in the whole mansion will soon be unable to open the pot!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, a lot of this list is still the dowry of Mrs. Weichen."

"Huh." King Qian chuckled lightly and looked at them with interest: "You just give this king a list, and you want to exchange it for goods of the same value, can you tell this king, who can prove that those goods belong to yours?" ”

Ministers: "."

When did King Qian, the old gentleman, become so difficult?

Didn't he always lose interest in these mundane things before?

"Your Majesty!"

Master Zhang came out, and he said: "The two families next door to the house can testify to us that the property of Weichen's family has indeed been looted by the rebels. ”

"That king still thinks that it was colluded by your left and right next door, just to defraud the king of the confiscated property!"

Ministers: "."

It's over!

How did Emperor Mingxi choose such a scoundrel to be their emperor?

If they make a living under him in the future, will they still reap the benefits?

And most importantly, will the emperor still be a marionette in their hands?

For the courtiers, there are two things out of their control today.

The first is the edict of Emperor Mingxi, which the ministers never expected, when he had no heirs, he actually passed the throne to his elders!

The second point is that their property was not recovered, and their request was finally rejected by the emperor.

From these two points, it can be seen that this emperor is out of their control, and their little caution is not hidden.

King Qian doesn't care what they think in their hearts, when they first come to Jiankang, everything is complicated, and they can't figure it out.

This made King Qian always look forward to Xia Jing coming to Jiankang quickly.

And Xia Jing, who King Qian was looking forward to, was always a little unhappy after receiving King Qian's letter.

According to her original plan, Lingnan's soldiers and horses can only advance steadily against the Central Plains, which is the safest.

It's easy to fall down when you climb to the sky in one step, as long as you don't can't get up, you're lucky.

Xia Jing frowned and looked at the account book, "The big house, the second room, the third room, and the fourth room all want to sell the fields in Lingnan?" They just can't wait? ”

Zeng Yan nodded: "They have already handed over the title deed to the small one, and they hope that the little one can sell these fields before leaving." ”

"These fields were originally given to them by the royal government, and they can grow them themselves, but if they want to sell them, they are absolutely not allowed."

Xia Jing directly denied this matter.

She finally carried out land reform in Lingnan, and achieved some results, and she would never allow anyone to destroy it.

If her stepsons insist on selling, then she will have to take back these fields and distribute them to the people of Lingnan to cultivate, hoping that in the future this place will become an important grain production base for the imperial court.

When the other rooms received Zeng Yanchuan's words, although they were dissatisfied, they dared not speak out.

Within two days, they sent the deed in their hands to Xia Jing.

The third room is the little maid next to Li Chengli, "Princess, this is the land deed of our third room, the third master asked the small one to take it and hand it over to the princess, I hope this land can bring benefits to the people of Lingnan." ”

"You third master has a heart!" Xia Jing had a smile on her face, making it impossible to see what she really thought in her heart.

Yangcai smiled: "Princess, the third master will come to ask you, there is still Aunt Sun living in Luofu Mountain Villa, now that we are in Beijing, can we bring her?" ”

Xia Jing glanced at him with a smile, "Aunt Sun was punished by the prince to go to the villa, and it seems that we have nothing to do with her when we go back to the Central Plains, if the prince writes to him that he wants to take her back, I have nothing to say." ”

Since King Qian's letter did not mention Aunt Sun, she would not be stupid and take people back to Jiankang.

I went to Jiankang this time, and it is conceivable that there will be constant disputes in the future, and bringing back Aunt Sun at this time is not to make myself uncomfortable.

The corners of Yangcai's mouth twitched: "."

The prince is not in Lingnan, how can he ask for the prince's opinion, even if he writes a letter, it is too late.

It seems that the third master's plan to take Aunt Sun to Jiankang is in vain.

The third lady Fu knew that Xia Jing had rejected Yangcai, and she was so happy that she almost didn't laugh out loud.

But for the sake of his own image, he still couldn't help but smile and poured a cup of tea for the third master Li Chengli, "Now that my father is in Jiankang, he must be too busy with things, how can he have the energy to ask about things here in Lingnan, and when we arrive in Jiankang, you can ask him face to face to see what kind of attitude he has towards his aunt?" If my father agrees to take my aunt to Jiankang, it's not too late for us to send someone to pick me up!" ”

What else can Li Chengli do, he can only compromise temporarily, "Things can only be like this." ”

Xia Jing handed over all the industries and businesses in Lingnan to Ding Daqiang to manage, he is the chief treasurer here, responsible for all affairs.

If you can't make up your mind, you can write to her.

As for the overseas colonies and the military affairs of Lingnan, Xia Jing handed over to Sima Lu, who was in charge of Lingnan's military affairs.

As for the administrative officials in the official offices, there will be no change for the time being.

Xia Jing's glass factory has recently become popular.

In particular, the Chengbei project undertaken by Huaxia Real Estate Commercial Bank is now full of popularity, and the glass produced by the glass factory has replaced all the windows of the new houses in the north of the city.

Many people in the city who have a little wealth have come to join in the excitement, and everyone has measured the ruler according to the requirements of the family and then came to buy glass.

When you buy it back, you just need to have it installed by a craftsman.

The windows are bright and the rooms are bright.

I don't know how many families have captured the hearts of many families when they are listed in Lingnan, especially women.

However, in Lingnan, everyone who has a little family background goes to the store under the glass factory to draw a few pieces of glass and replace the window paper on the window.

Xia Jing's ultimate purpose in making glass was to earn foreign exchange, that is, to sell glass products overseas through the Lingnan sea ship caravans, so that each fleet could earn more overseas wealth.

King Qian looked left and right in Jiankang, and when Xia Jing arranged the affairs of Lingnan, it was already mid-April.

On the day of leaving the city, the street leading from Lingnan to the north gate of Lingnan was full of Lingnan people, who came to see off the people of the palace.

There are also Lingnan strong squires on the agenda, which makes Xia Jing's team longer.

Chang Chong looked at the convoy out of the city and said to his mother: "Mother, I told you not to prepare, don't prepare, the princess has never seen or eaten any good things, and she will take a fancy to this little thing of yours; You see, I was right, the imposing guards on both sides of the team were not vegetarians, and we couldn't get close to her carriage at all. ”

"How do you speak, you kid? What princess doesn't like me for this little thing, these things I prepared are at least prepared by me, the princess has everything, and she takes a gift to her heart! ”

Chang Chong snorted coldly and glanced at his son.

Chang Chong escorted his mother and squeezed forward, "Yes, yes, you're right, we're going to squeeze forward as much as we can now see if we can hand things over to her guards." ”

Chang Chongniang was satisfied, "You kid said this sentence, if there is no princess, our mother may still be worried about three meals a day, where is the good life now, be a man to know gratitude!" ”

"Alas! The princess has left Lingnan, and I don't know if the development of Lingnan will stagnate in the future, and I don't want to lose the good life I have now. ”

"Sister, Chang Chong, are you also here to send off the princess?"

"Ouch, Shopkeeper Chen, you are here too, when did you arrive in Lingnan?" Chang Chong greeted Chen Yongtian with a smile.

Shopkeeper Chen squeezed to Chang Chong's side: "I was just transferred to take charge of the affairs of Lingnan this month, thinking that I would have the opportunity to contact the princess in the future, but I didn't want me to come but she was leaving." ”

In the end, he shook his head regretfully.
