Song Liangchen slammed his horse, and the arrogant man of the big black horse stood up.

"The words of the crown prince are military orders!" Song Liangchen roared angrily. "If you resist the military order, you will all have your heads cut off!--brothers, kill! kill these mobs!"

As soon as the roar ended, Song Liangchen was already like a mad beast, and he rushed towards the crowd. Behind him, a group of black-robed flying dragon riders in black armor rushed towards this group of people mercilessly, like a black dragon going out to sea.

Li Huaiguang, Chu Yan, and Gao Gu were almost petrified at this time. I forgot what I was going to do.

"Is this guy crazy?!" the three of them said in unison.

At this time, the more than 10,000 mobs surrounded by the core began to desperately flee in all directions, rushing into the cavalry in the circle.

"What do you want?!" Li Huaiguang shouted loudly, "Kill, kill! brothers." Slaughter these mobs!"

Chu Yan and Gao Gu suddenly came back to their senses as if they had been empowered. The two glanced at each other and said in unison, "This should be what the prince meant, right?"

"It should ...... Be. ”

"Then kill!!"

In front of Suzaku Gate. An unprecedented massacre, an instantaneous outbreak. One of the most elite cavalry units of the Great Qi launched a merciless massacre against the unarmed wealthy gentry of the capital and a mob. The loud wails and the swinging of swords, as well as the cries of horses, converged into a terrifying wave that swept through the entire capital.

Xiao Yunhe stood at the end of the Dragon Tail Road of the Taiji Hall with his hands in his hands, and looked towards the Vermilion Bird Gate with his eyes raised. He had clearly heard the screams of killing coming from the Suzaku Gate, but his expression was as calm as water.

Among those who were killed, perhaps there were also descendants of those loyal and good generals who followed our land back then...... Xiao Yunhe gently picked the corners of his mouth, and secretly thought to himself: No one dares to challenge the imperial power and blaspheme the law in front of me. Neither can anyone.

A gust of wind rose, and the smell of blood in the air wafted to the front of the Taiji Palace. The soldiers who were standing guard near the Taiji Hall also showed a look of astonishment. They were far from expecting that the prince, who had always loved the people like a son, would actually do something to this group of Daqi people...... A chill rose in everyone's hearts. There have been some changes in the perception and understanding of this prince.

Originally...... He is more than benevolent and loving. When necessary, he is more ruthless than anyone else!

The massacre in front of Suzakumon is still going on. For this battle without suspense, Xiao Yunhe had no intention of asking about its result. Some wars, the beginning and the process, are sometimes more important than the result. For example, the current war between him and the wealthy clans in the capital broke out. In order to establish supreme prestige and authority in the shortest possible time, in addition to the three things of mental skill, strategy, and strength, blood is also indispensable! No one always walks to the pinnacle of hegemony with a smiling face and a harmonious atmosphere. Even if you barely get to the top, you won't be able to do it for long. Because...... No one is afraid of him! The respect and fear of the subjects are two elements that a king must concrete, and one is indispensable.

Therefore, these gentry in the capital who have bad intentions and are destined to become a group of victims - the victims of Xiao Yunhe's rebirth and ascension to the pinnacle of imperial power!

The sound on the side of the Suzaku Gate was getting quieter and quieter, and it seemed that the battle was nearing its end. At this moment, a team of chariots drove over in a hurry. From a distance, the apricot yellow car cover is actually the emperor.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Xiao Yunhe's brows twisted slightly: "What is he doing at this time?"

The old man hurriedly jumped out of the car and hurried towards the dragon tail road. Xiao Yunhe hesitated for a moment and hurried to meet him.

"Has my father's health ever improved?" Xiao Yunhe greeted the old man and said this. The subtext is nothing more than that: You don't recuperate in Daming Palace, you come here to join in the fun, the old man is in Daming Palace, and he still has the freedom of the greatest power. As long as you don't go out of the imperial city, you can do it casually. So the guards who were responsible for protecting him did not stop him.

The old man climbed a few steps, panting and pointing at Xiao Yunhe with trembling fingers, gritting his teeth and scolding in a low voice: "Are you crazy?!"

Xiao Yunhe pretended to be puzzled: "Why is my father angry, what happened?"

"You, you, you!" the old man was so angry that his tongue was about to tie up, "I don't care if you do anything else, you can even tear down the palace, and I won't ignore it--but, how can you do it to the wealthy gentry in the capital?

"It's the foundation and the reliance, yes. Xiao Yunhe smiled and said indifferently, "However, when this foundation grows a tumor that threatens the life and death of the entire tree, it is also necessary to give it a fierce medicine to cure it." ”

Xiao Yunhe paused slightly, revealing a meaningful smile: "I understand this truth more thoroughly than you think. ”

The old man propped up his waist and panted, choked on Xiao Yunhe's sentence. He glared at Xiao Yunhe angrily and helplessly, and then said, "That's it." You always have your fallacies. I just wanted to warn you that it's best not to make a big mess. No external troubles can extinguish Daqi, and if civil strife breaks out in the imperial capital, it will really be over. ”

"Don't worry, it won't. Xiao Yunhe smiled confidently and said indifferently, "This time, I only killed a group of rebels with bad intentions. They dare to intercede for those who break the law and are about to be punished, and they openly challenge the imperial power to blaspheme the law, which is to seek their own death and blame others. In the eyes of the people and scholars of the world, I will always stand on the side of justice and justice, and I am not afraid of leaving anything to the bottom of my mouth. Killing and violence are not the fundamental solution to the problem, but only a means. There is no way to use extraordinary means in extraordinary times. ”

Xiao Yunhe's eyes widened in astonishment, blinked a few times, and nodded suddenly: "It turns out ...... Are they protesting and petitioning for those corrupt officials......? Then it doesn't hurt to kill them. However, you are a little too ruthless. 10,000 people...... Tsk, 10,000!"

Xiao Yunhe raised the corners of his mouth lightly and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid...... In this incident, more than 10,000 people were killed. Whoever participates in this event, their small relatives, I will expel them from the Imperial City and exile them. Those who behave badly, I do not hesitate to use the punishment of consecutive sitting. In troubled times, we should use heavy codes, and some people cannot tolerate them. If they are not allowed to look at the means, they will forget what is the inviolable imperial power. This is too important for a dynasty. ”

The old man smacked his lips a few times in embarrassment and muttered, "I thought it was ...... You will only be benevolent and soothe the people. When you were in Xichuan, your reputation of being close to the people and loving the people was spread all over the world. I didn't expect ...... You will also be ruthless to this extent. To be honest, if I were faced with such a situation, I would never have killed a killer like you. ”

You'll be running away again. Xiao Yunhe smiled secretly in his heart and didn't say this sentence. Instead, he diverted the topic and said to the old man: "Since my father is here today, please preside over the court meeting in person." ”

"No, no, no!" the old man waved his hand again and again, "I said that I don't care about anything, and I will never interfere in any court affairs again." Just now, I just heard that you were killing at the Suzaku Gate, and I was frightened, so I came to take a look. It's okay now, I'm still going back to my Xuanwu Palace. I made an appointment with a few concubines yesterday to go to the cockfighting platform to play together today. I don't have time to pay attention to your business. And just like that, I went. Hello for yourself. With that, the old man walked down the dragon tail road, looking at the figure, like a playful old naughty boy. Where is there still the shadow of the king of a country.

Xiao Yunhe looked at the old man's back and smiled, and said secretly in his heart: Although you have no talent and no virtue, sometimes, it's not so annoying. Like the way it looks now, it's very cute. This is good.

It's been a long time. On the large empty stone flat in front of the Taiji Palace, a group of black-robed cavalrymen appeared, jogging in unison. Song Liangchen was at the forefront. The tall figure is extremely eye-catching.

In front of Longwei Road, Song Liangchen turned over and dismounted, and ran up the stairs quickly. All the way to see the first release of the Chinese network

"Report to the Prince! The mob that made trouble in front of Suzaku's gate has all been killed. Song Liangchen said in a rough voice, "The three generals Li Huaiguang, Chu Yan, and Gao Gu are leading the army to rectify martial law in the capital city and clean up the mess. The civil and military officials who were blocked outside the city had already entered the city and were waiting in the left and right courts. ”

"Good. Xiao Yunhe raised his hand. "Beat the drum - go to court!"

Knock knock, the heavy and long sound of the giant drum sounded, resounding throughout the imperial city. As solemn and solemn as ever, as if nothing serious had happened today. The civil and military officials lined up in a queue and walked out of the left and right halls in turn. Xiao Yunhe was still standing in front of the Taiji Palace. Look at the officials coming in drove. Although there is no one talking to each other, there is nothing unusual compared to usual. But the atmosphere was clearly tense and depressing. Everyone unconsciously lowered their eyebrows, and they didn't dare to look at him, the prince.

Xiao Yunhe raised the corners of his mouth lightly and smiled: Very good, this is the effect you want.

Today's court meeting is not a very important event. Regarding the riot in the Vermilion Bird Gate, Xiao Yunhe didn't want to deal with it now, so he didn't mention it. The courtiers also consciously did not talk about it. After dealing with some sesame trivial matters, the court will disperse. Xiao Yunhe left Lu Zhen alone and invited him into the study of the prince of Taiji Palace.

"Jingyu, do you have something to say to me?" Xiao Yunhe looked at the young and elegant Lu Zhen with a faint look in his eyes.

"Nope. Lu Zhen replied very simply.

"Okay, let me ask you a few questions. Xiao Yunhe said, "What do you think of today's Suzaku Gate?"

"Back to the adult's words, Weichen has no idea. Lu Zhen still looked unfazed, and his expression was neither humble nor arrogant.

Xiao Yunhe smiled slightly: "If you say that, it means that you have an idea." It's just that you don't bother to tell me, do you?"

Lu Zhen raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Yunhe, and said indifferently: "Lord Prince's behavior has his own reasons and reasons. Even if we courtiers have ideas, what's the point of saying them? So, it's better to save our tongues and not say it. ”

"Hehe!" Xiao Yunhe didn't get angry, but smiled, "I know that you have a lot of thoughts in your heart." In your eyes, I'm a tyrant at this point, right?"

Lu Zhen smiled coldly and did not answer.

Xiao Yunhe also smiled and said: "Respect, I respect you as a talent, and even more so a talent who dares to speak and act, so I pay special attention to you." Unexpectedly, there are times when you keep silent. Are you worried that if you say the wrong thing, I'll kill you too?"

"Lu Jingyu has never been afraid of death. Lu Zhen raised his head, met Xiao Yunhe's eyes, and said seriously, "I just think that a character like the crown prince can't listen to people like Weichen." Instead of exhausting my lips and tongue to do meaningless things, I should do my part and do something practical. Rather than die meaninglessly at your hands like this, it is better to keep it useful. Do a little more for the people of the community. Lu Jingyu is an official for a day, and he does things for the people for a day. If I can't do it one day, it's not up to me. So, I'm just trying to be an official for one more day. And the best way to do this is not to say things that shouldn't be said. Don't do things you shouldn't do. Because in the eyes of the prince, there is no way to rub the sand. ”

"Hehe!" Xiao Yunhe smiled again and said, "It seems that you have committed atrocities to me today." But I didn't want to explain it to you, let alone beg for a detailed explanation. Those who do big things are not informal, and those who are successful are not afraid of reputation. Like you, I want to do the most practical things. I don't take things like false names too seriously. No matter what outsiders think of and how they understand today's Suzaku Gate, I don't care. I care. It's just the result of things. ”

Lu Zhen shook his head lightly, sighed and said, "The result of the matter is that from now on, there will be no dissidents from adults in the capital city. In the world of Great Qi, no one dares to desecrate your majesty again. You can finally ascend to the throne of God as a matter of course. ”

"That's a good point. Xiao Yunhe said, "It's important, isn't it? You can think I'm selfish, but do it." It is very advantageous for a country and for the imperial power. In order to ensure the stability of the country and the prestige of the imperial power, killing people is indispensable. You and I are both real people, so there is no need to say those empty words. I do. It is for the stability of the Great Qi and the majesty of the imperial power. Now, it's time to restore the lost prestige of Daqi. And to do it. It is impossible not to kill. ”

"Yes. I agree with you. Lu Zhen said, "However, among these 10,000 people, have you figured out which ones should be killed and which ones should not be killed? ”

"You haven't been on the battlefield, you don't know what it's like to live or die, and you don't know what a double-edged sword is. Xiao Yunhe said, "If you go to the battlefield, if you want to survive, you have to kill your enemy." At this time, you still have time to investigate whether he is a kind-hearted person, whether he has a young son waiting to be fed or a dying old parent, and if he wants your life, if you don't want to die, you have to kill him. This is war. The political struggle above the court is also war, and it is more ferocious and cruel than war. War is a double-edged sword, and if you want not to hurt yourself, you must swing it out against your enemies. I understand what you mean, you are trying to say that I can use other methods than killing to solve this riot. The metaphor is about compromise, such as appeasement. But I can't. Imperial power cannot be desecrated, and national law cannot be trampled on. That's my bottom line. When they touch my bottom line, I can only show my sword and give him death. Do you understand?"

Lu Zhen looked at Xiao Yunhe in a daze, and nodded suddenly: "Understood...... You're the most complicated person I've ever met. Originally, I thought that you were just a general who could fight and was used to fighting, and a parent official who was close to the government and loved the people. I didn't expect that you were a natural overlord at all. It's really rare for the Emperor's Art to be used so skillfully by you. ”

"Well, thanks for the compliment. Xiao Yunhe smiled slightly and said, "I said it." I didn't think about explaining anything, or getting anyone's understanding. So, I came to you today for something more important. ”

Lu Zhen frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Yunhe said: "I want you to take the position of the left counselor of the subordinate province, and be responsible for correcting the courtiers' chapters, reviewing the edict and pardon, and correcting my misdeeds and decisions." I want you to be the most important advisor by my side. ”

"Counseling Doctor?!" Lu Zhen said in astonishment, and stood on the spot.

The Counsellor was an important official in the province who was responsible for advising the emperor and correcting the misdeeds and decisions of the emperor and his courtiers. When Zhenguan was in the past, Wei Zheng was the most famous counselor, and he was famous for daring to give direct advice. With the assistance of Wei Zheng, who dared to advise and was good at admonishing, Xiao Yunhe had to correct many wrong decisions. The emergence of the prosperous era of Zhenguan has a very direct relationship with a group of ministers like Wei Zheng who dare to advise and are good at admonishing.

However, today, more than 100 years later, the system of three provinces and six ministries has become a virtual reality, and the official position of the province has lost its original meaning. The so-called counseling of the doctor has also become a painting cake, and it has no longer played any role at all. The power of the imperial court all fell into the hands of a few prime ministers or cronies of the emperor, such as Pingzhangshi, who was under the Tongzhong Shumen. The entire imperial court is almost about to become a hall of words. The division of labor is not clear, the institutions are bloated, the efficiency is poor, and the power is extremely centralized. Therefore, when Lu Zhenbu heard that the prince was going to appoint him as the doctor of the left counsel, he thought that he was going to remove him from his post and reduce his real power as prime minister.

Xiao Yunhe was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "Don't worry, listen to me." Now, there are all kinds of ruins waiting to be rebuilt in the court, and every qiē has to be started from scratch. Nearly half of the officials were investigated, leaving many vacancies. Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to reorganize the imperial court institutions, streamline the administration and eliminate redundant personnel. At the same time, the system of three provinces and six ministries was restored, and the responsibilities of all people were clarified. At the beginning of doing these things, I wanted to restore the system of officials and historians observing and supervising the administration of the court. With supervision, Yiqiē will be as orderly as possible and reasonable. The mistakes of me and some courtiers can be corrected. Daqi will drive in the right direction. Therefore, you, the counselor, are no longer idle and idle, and you will have an extremely heavy burden on your shoulders. Because, you have to be responsible, don't let me make mistakes again. ”

Lu Zhen was already stunned, and muttered: "Streamline the administration of the elite army and rebuild the three provinces and six departments...... Is this possible?"

"As long as you dare to do it and work hard to do it, there is nothing that cannot be done. Xiao Yunhe smiled and said, "After investigating the Pei and Dou corruption cases and the Suzaku Gate, the entire court of Daqi is already in complete chaos. Isn't this the perfect time to re-establish a new pattern? I have the guts to let a dynasty be reborn from the ashes. Don't you have the guts to be my counselor?"

Lu Zhen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and replied heavily: "Dare!"

Xiao Yunhe smiled: "This is good. ”

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhen immediately changed his words: "But then again, it's one thing to dare or not, and whether you can be competent or not is another thing." ”

"You don't have confidence?" Xiao Yunhe was a little puzzled. He believed in his own vision that Lu Zhen should be fully qualified for the position of counselor.

"There are some things that cannot be done by faith alone. Lu Yi said slowly, "For example, I want the sun to rise in the west." No matter how confident I am, I will never be able to do it. ”

Xiao Yunhe suddenly understood, nodded and said, "I understand what you mean." Are you afraid...... I don't listen to you at all, do I?"

Lu Zhen smiled slightly: "The prince is certainly very smart, so there is no need for Weichen to elaborate on it." ”

Xiao Yunhe also smiled and said, "Your worries are very reasonable, no one likes to listen to contrary words." However, I will do my best to accept advice and be as good as a stream. Back then, when Wei Zheng and the others faced Emperor Taizong, they even went against the dragon's scales and refuted angrily, and Emperor Taizong never felt sorry for Wei Zheng, on the contrary, he treated their advice calmly and objectively. I have always followed Emperor Taizong's example, and I hope to be like him. Whether to advise or not, how to persuade is a question you should consider. If I'm really a dull and cruel person, you can always shut Chrysostom. "The prince said it very well, and I hope that in the future, I will be able to match my words with deeds. Lu Zhen didn't express too much excitement and praise, and said lightly, "Since the prince's noble words have come out, Weichen should be appointed as the counselor." But...... I don't know if the crown prince can listen to Na Weichen's first advice. ”

Xiao Yunhe's heart moved slightly: "Speak." ”

Lu Zhen clasped his fists and said, "Please treat the emperor and the virtuous king well throughout his life." ”

Xiao Yunhe laughed: "I can't agree to this advice." ”

"What?" Lu Zhen was stunned.

"Because. Even if you don't give this advice, I'll do it. Xiao Yunhe said, "So, this may not be a piece of advice." Because I haven't done anything wrong, and I won't do anything wrong in the future. Your exhortation is ineffective. ”

Lu Zhen secretly sighed and bowed a few times: "Since that's the case." Wechen had nothing more to say. Thank you for the prince's heavy promotion, Weichen is sincerely afraid, and is willing to accept any of your advice to the doctor. ”

"Good. Xiao Yunhe nodded with satisfaction and said, "Three provinces and six departments." The responsibilities of the province are very important. For the time being, no one will be appointed to serve as the highest official in the province, but the left and right doctors will be in charge of all the government affairs of the province. Your colleague is another counselor. It was Xue Cuncheng, a famous person who followed me from Xichuan to Beijing. This person is naturally arrogant and daring, but he is a talented person and very upright and resolute. I believe that if you work with him, you will get along more quickly. I want both of you too. can become Wei Zheng's second and fulfill the duties of this counselor. ”

"Xue Cuncheng ......" Lu Yi groaned softly, and bowed his hand, "Weichen takes the order." ”

"At the same time, you are still the prime minister of Daqi. Xiao Yunhe said, "Zuo advises the doctor, and the same Zhongshu is under the same chapter." Do you have any comments?"

"No ......" Lu Zhen blinked his eyes a few times, and once again looked at the prince carefully. I had mixed feelings.

"In that case, please step back first. Xiao Yunhe smiled. Lu Yi bowed, raised his eyes to take a look, and retreated.

Xiao Yunhe breathed softly: Lu Zhen, this person, the land is indeed worth fighting for. In addition to intellect and ability. He has a rare Chu Yanran's natural righteousness, and the spirit of the death festival of the doctor. If he and Xue Cuncheng can conscientiously perform their duties, they will supervise and advise by my side. I will definitely take a lot less detours and make a lot less mistakes. Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng, I hope that in my life, I can still have a mirror like you by my side to correct my words and deeds......

After finishing the affairs in the palace, Xiao Yunhe took Song Liangchen and the flying dragon rider to the Vermilion Bird Gate. Chu Yan and others are very efficient. The wreckage in front of Suzaku Gate has been cleaned up. The wealthy gentry who participated in the disturbance were either killed or captured alive. Every family's home is surrounded by iron armor. Martial law began in the capital, and the people were silent and did not dare to go out. The whole huge pool city seemed a little windy and lifeless.

Xiao Yunhe summoned Li Huaiguang, Chu Yan and Gao Gu, and asked a little about the situation at that time, so that he knew it in his heart. There were more than 300 gentry who participated in the trouble. More than 200 people have been killed, and the rest have been killed by their swords, but they have either been wounded or captured alive, and are now in centralized custody. Few of those minions survived, and almost all of them died under the sword.

Xiao Yunhe's face sank: "What are you still locked up for?"

At this time, even Li Huaiguang was taken aback, and said in a low voice: "My lord...... It's enough to make an example of the chickens......"

"You're wrong. Xiao Yunhe said, "I am not killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, but strictly enforcing the French discipline of the country and reinvigorating the emperor's prestige." These people have dared to storm the imperial city, beat the officials, and trample on the law, what else do they dare not do? If I don't kill them, they will think that I intend to tolerate and retreat. Besides, they also participated in the trouble, so why were some people killed, but some people were killed? Regardless of the size of their official position or status, they treated everyone equally and were guilty, and they did not favor anyone. So--kill them all, and leave no one behind!"

The three generals clenched their fists together and promised: "It was Xiao Yunhe who ordered again: "The homes of those troublemakers and gentry will be sealed immediately, and no one will be allowed to enter and leave freely." I will send the imperial historian to investigate and collect evidence in detail, and give a judgment according to the law. Their families and clans are guilty of the same crime and will be severely punished. If anyone dares to rush to the official army, there will be no mercy!"

"Yes!"

Song Liangchen kept his eyes on the side, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know, I thought the prince was on the battlefield again......

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Song Liangchen. Song Liangchen was stunned, covered his mouth, and shook his head again and again.

"Alright, let's go about our own business. Suzaku Gate is so troublesome. It is estimated that it is rare to have peace in the capital for a long time. Those gentry are deeply rooted in the national capital and are very popular, and there may be some turmoil. When the time comes, you can only suppress it, and you will all be punished as a national crime. Xiao Yunhe said, "Song Liangchen, let's go back to the palace." ”

"Yes" Song Liangchen turned the horse's head and led the flying dragon rider to escort the prince back to the palace. Li Huaiguang, Chu Yan, and Gao Gu looked at each other. Each thought in their hearts: Is this still the Han King we know? It turns out that he was so ruthless at the same time......

Back in the East Palace, Xiao Yunhe prepared to go to the Lizheng Hall to meet those scholars from the Chongwen Pavilion. At this time of the day, it is a fixed time for the prince and the bachelor to exchange and study together. But just after passing the Mingde Palace, an East Palace guard hurriedly greeted Xiao Yunhe. Li Mi and Li Mian have been waiting in the hall for a long time.

Xiao Yunhe smiled secretly in his heart: I have done such an earth-shattering event, the two old men must not be able to sit still, and they will come to teach a lesson......

Sure enough, the faces of the two old men were not very good-looking. They are all typical benevolent gentlemen. He has always been against killing. Li Mian said: "Your Excellency's behavior today...... Probably a little too aggressive. Actually, there may be other ways to solve the problem. It's not a good thing to cause bloodshed in the capital city like this. Blood and souls will clash with the emperor, not to mention. The millions of people in the national capital will also leave a shadow in their hearts from now on. The image of the prince will also undergo some qualitative changes

Xiao Yunhe didn't talk back, arched his hand and replied humbly: "Xuanqing Gong has taught a lesson...... The student knows it's wrong. ”

Li Mi frowned slightly, and said indifferently: "The old man doesn't comment too much on the prince's behavior. However, as Xuan Qinggong said, this time it is indeed a little extreme. In the future, it would be better for such things to happen less or not at all. After all, they are all flesh and blood compatriots of Daqi. Is there anything that the family can't settle peacefully? Although the process is a little tragic, it has already happened after all, and there is not much point in blaming and regretting. For this occasion, the most important thing is not to look at the pool of blood at the Suzaku Gate...... Rather, revive the dynasty!"

Xiao Yunhe's heart lit up: It's still Li Yu, an old ghost, who is far-sighted, calm and wise. He thinks. It always coincides with me!

"Taishi is right. Students pondering ...... It is necessary to reorganize the three provinces and six ministries. After Xiao Yunhe said this, he observed the expressions of the two elders, and found that they did not show too much surprise. I feel a little strange about myself: Could it be ...... The two of them thought the same way?

Li Mian smiled and said, "It seems that the world's high views coincide with each other." The old Taoist friend has also been chattering with me for a few days, and wants to persuade the adults to take this opportunity to rebuild the three provinces and six departments of Daqi, so that these departments can truly shoulder the responsibilities of the Daqi court. ”

Li Mi stroked his hair and smiled: "It seems that we two old ghosts are still a little worried about this matter." The crown prince must already have a bamboo in his mind. If the three provinces and six ministries can be organized and functional, the imperial court of Daqi will rejuvenate and prosper. If Daqi wants to return to the prosperous atmosphere of the past, it is not difficult to count on it. ”

"Yes, yes......" Li Mian also looked quite pleased.

Xiao Yunhe bowed his hand and said, "The students still have some preliminary ideas. It's still very tricky to really get things done, and it's a bit overwhelming. Therefore, I would like to ask the two teachers for more guidance. ”

"Hehehe!" Li Yu suddenly laughed out loud, and Xiao Yunhe was naturally stunned.

Li Mian smiled and said, "Old Taoist friend...... The sickness has been committed again. "Chronic disease?" Xiao Yunhe was stunned, "Xuan Qinggong, do you mean that the Taishi is going to go into seclusion again?"

"Exactly. Li Mi looked at Xiao Yunhe seriously and said, "Reorganizing the three provinces and six ministries, this is a delicate job, I, an old man, have been away from the dynasty for many years, and I am not familiar with the characters in the court, so I can't help you much." As long as the Huaixi and Hebei troops retreat, the six departments of the three provinces are formed, and the situation in the national capital becomes clear and peaceful, the prince can safely ascend to Jilong and Jiuding. These three things are not difficult for the crown prince, and there will be no trouble. In this case, why should the poor Dao rest here for idle food? It is better to return to the green mountains and white clouds, be in the company of wild cranes and spirit apes, and spend his old age in peace. I believe that my lord is also a reasonable person, and he will not be forced to stay with me like your father, right?"

"This ......" Li Mi is about to retire again, which Xiao Yunhe really didn't expect. It seems that he also sees that it is only a matter of time before the situation is clear, and he is about to retreat again. Originally, Xiao Yunhedi really planned to let him serve as the prime minister of Zhongshu Ling, but he didn't expect that he would leave again.

Seeing that the prince looked a little helpless, Li Mian smiled and said, "Lord Prince, the old Taoist friend is different from us after all. Everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't ask for it. If I could persuade him, I would have persuaded him a long time ago. Therefore, the prince might as well be a generous person, and let this old Taoist priest go back to his Taoist temple. ”

Xiao Yunhe sighed helplessly: "Then I can only sigh that I am blessed, and I can't keep the master...... It's just that the Taishi should not be heard from as soon as he goes! From time to time, someone will come back with a letter to dial the students, or if he has time, he will come to the national capital to have a look. ”

"Well, that's good to say, that's good to say. Li Mi stroked his bright white beard and said with a smile: "Before leaving, Poor Dao had a few words that he wanted to give to the prince. I don't know if you would like to hear it, Lord Prince?"

Xiao Yunhe bowed: "The students are listening!"

"The prince's martial arts strategy and courage are already outstanding, ancient and modern. However, often the difference between a saint and a tyrant is only a thin line. There are not a few talented emperors in history, but there are very few who have truly become saints. In the end, the reason is that the later they go, the better they rejoice in vanity, or they are numb and slack, relax their requirements for themselves, and lose their nature in fame, fortune and laziness. Li Mi said leisurely, "So, I want to persuade adults: Chanaya Yan, be kind to others." Advice is often against the ear, but as long as adults can always listen to and accept advice, they will become a generation of saints. ”

Li Mi is gone. Left Chanaya words, and the eight words of being kind to others, he returned to his green mountains and white clouds like a fairy. In this regard, Xiao Yunhe naturally has some regrets. But he was not used to always indulging in nostalgia and regret, and the task in front of him was extremely difficult, and there was no time for him to desert.

After the Suzaku Gate incident, the atmosphere in the entire capital city was extremely depressing, as if it had fallen into a white terror. Everyone is in danger, and some people scream in their sleep in the middle of the night. The instinctive fear of death and blood cast a shadow over everyone's hearts.

After all, it's nearly 10,000 lives......

In the following days, Xiao Yunhe and the court officials were actively dealing with the sequelae of the Suzaku Gate incident. Raid the troublemakers and gentry, arrest the rebels of the same party, and make a list to appease the people. These things are easy to say, but they can be extremely tedious to do. At least half of the troops of Li Huaiguang and others were also transferred to the capital to participate in the pre-handling of these matters. The original order in the national capital has been disrupted, and if it weren't for the strong impeachment of the army, I really don't know what would have happened.

Xiao Yunhe himself was so busy that he almost forgot about day and night. Although the situation was a bit chaotic and scary, he knew it was an essential experience. If you want to be reborn after the Great Destruction, you should have to go through a period of torture and chaos. A new order must be established, and old rules must be broken. Now is the time when the old has broken and the new has not yet been established. It is not surprising that there would be such short-term chaos.

Rich political experience, so that Xiao Yunhe is not afraid of danger and does not panic at all. In the seemingly chaotic situation, he calmly commanded the overall situation to drive in his ideal direction.

Half a month later, the smell of blood in front of Suzaku Gate seemed to fade away. The people are also beginning to recover from the panic. In the capital city, it gradually recovered a little bit of vitality.

The people are always forgetful. Especially when they themselves are faced with the challenges of firewood, rice, oil and salt, the easier it is to forget something that has not happened to them. After all these days, the people in the capital city found out. The ruthless prince wanted to get rid of not them, the cloth-clothed people, but the wealthy gentry who dared to provoke the imperial power. In the national capital, in fact, it is still as peaceful as usual, and there is no scene of chaos. Not a single innocent person was killed, and not a single home was sacked by sergeants.
