Chapter 168: Ministers
At the court meeting the next day, Du Chengfeng was officially canonized and received the seal of the Taishi.
The civil and military officials didn't react, it seemed that they acquiesced to this fact, after all, they had all admitted the treacherous minister Jia Wen, and it was not impossible to change someone at the moment - as for the young little emperor, no one cared, anyway, all along, this so-called emperor can only be regarded as an ornament.
People's hearts have long been floating.
Everyone has their own ideas, but they are sophisticated, but they will never put their thoughts on their faces, they will smile while congratulating Du Chengfeng, even if Du Chengfeng was just a thief who came out of the countryside in Jibei before - this may indeed be laughing, after all, a country thief born in a fighting Han is always better than a prime minister who was born as a scholar, even if the other party is Ruan Shantao's disciple.
If it is a human being, it will have weaknesses, and if it is a human being, it will have desires, and if there is desire, human beings can be used.
has been crawling and rolling under the treacherous minister all the year round, and this civil and military official of the Manchu Dynasty has not really learned anything.
But all this has nothing to do with Du Chengfeng, what he wants, these people can't give it, or rather, no one can give it - Du Chengfeng, who has gone all the way from Jibei to the present, already knows that what really belongs to him will always be obtained by his own hands.
Of course, this did not prevent him from asking for some news.
"Is there a good dim sum shop in Jiankang City? It's the kind that can be used more easily. ”
“…… Yes? ”
The courtiers who came to congratulate were stunned.
You must know that they are all ready to send something to build a good relationship first, whether it is cheesy gold and silver jewelry, or elegant antique calligraphy and painting, or the swords, guns, swords and halberds that the warriors prefer, and even someone has come up with the trick of beauty tricks - it turns out that the new Taishi wants a dim sum shop?
"There are two shops that make dim sum in the next house."
Some courtiers were puzzled for a moment, but they still stood up.
"If the master doesn't dislike it, I'm willing to ...... it"
"What am I going to do in the shop? I just wanted to go buy something. ”
Du Chengfeng shook his head and declined the kindness.
If it was the beginning, he might still be very interested in this kind of thing, after all, these are two shops in the capital, if it is well run, it can even be called a daily income - for the poor and white him at the beginning, to be able to do such a net worth, it is simply a complete life, what more can the husband ask for.
But for him now, this kind of trivial matter, he just feels boring.
Without strength, he can't hold anything, he has deeply understood this truth, and on the way to chase power, these mundane little things are dispensable.
"Anyway, I'm going to buy things first, you feel free."
Saying this, Du Chengfeng rode away.
Yes, because he didn't worry about putting things in other people's places, so this time in the court, Du Chengfeng still came on a horse.
Such an arrogant and rebellious behavior naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the civil and military officials, but what worried them the most was that the new Taishi did not accept their kindness - this undoubtedly made them frightened. If the gift can be given, it at least means that they have a need for each other and can continue to communicate in the future.
But now, the gifts can't be given, in a sense, it also shows that they are not needed.
What happens to useless things?
"Why don't we go find those people."
After the retreat, some courtiers secretly gathered to discuss the way forward.
As for the "people" in their mouths, of course, they are the remnants of Prime Minister Jia Wen. Although Prime Minister Jia Wen himself died violently, his men are still there, and the strength of these people has been verified in the previous counterinsurgency - although the methods of those remnants of the previous dynasty are quite shady, but at least in fact, these former scholars have effectively suppressed the rebellion.
After the death of Prime Minister Jia Wen, these remnants of the former dynasty also organized several assassinations of Du Chengfeng, the murderer, but those assassinations still failed after all.
Like Prime Minister Jia Wen, these scholars' strengths are more demagoguery, and at the moment, when they need to kill people hard, they are a little ineffective.
"However, this aspect is our strength."
Some of the old courtiers brushed their beards.
And the rest of the courtiers also nodded.
Yes, when it comes to tough encounters, they are truly fearless, on the one hand, because of the various secret methods accumulated in the family during this long time, and on the other hand, because of those hidden masters who were secretly collected by them and had the strength to release evil qi.
But most of all, it is still the things that they enshrine in the family.
It was a terrifying weapon known as the Protector of the Nation.
People only know that Dachen Taizu used fifteen national protectors to kill countless grassland barbarians, but few people know that fourteen of the fifteen national protectors came from the generals who followed Dachen Taizu in the past.
In the process of following Dachen Taizu's expedition to the east and west, these generals all died on the battlefield, and their blades were also collected by Dachen Taizu, after the battle in the north, these blades completely became prestigious, and also completely established the unshakable status of Dachen Taizu.
It's a well-known thing.
What people don't know is that after Da Chen Taizu was buried in the imperial mausoleum, these blades were brought back by the descendants of those military generals, as the legacy of their ancestors, and they were worshiped day and night, and the descendants of these military generals also deliberately hid this matter - after all, fifteen national protectors locked in the palace are safer than fourteen national protectors held by various families.
In the final analysis, the various families at that time still believed in the Dachen royal family, even if they looked at the aftermath of Dachen Taizu, they also felt that this Dachen royal family could lead them to get more benefits.
But now it seems that ......
"It seems that this majesty of ours, this newly drawn sword, is not too friendly to us."
Several courtiers glanced at each other, all sure of what they were thinking in each other's minds.
As the courtiers of this great Chen, when His Majesty is immoral, they have the responsibility to persuade His Majesty, and even help His Majesty correct some improper behaviors.
After all, this Da Chen, although it is their Emperor's Majesty's, is also theirs after all.
Or rather, it's always been theirs.
The belated first update arrived, and I hurried to write the second one.
Also: Thank you for your recommendation votes and monthly passes, and thank you for your encouragement and support.
Thanks to the two bears, Ye Xiangling's reward is really expensive.
I continued to go to the codeword, and the transition chapter made me dizzy.
