Chapter 249: Mutual Benefit

But as a man, especially a defender of imperial power, Mang Taihu has to pay attention to the situation in the whole world.

The emperor is incompetent and the imperial power is declining day by day, which is already an irreparable dilemma.

Since the disappearance of Mang Tailong for a hundred years, the princes of the Quartet have gradually bred the heart of disobedience, seeing that they are becoming bigger and bigger against the royal family, Mang Taihu is also anxious, the royal family wants to weaken the four princes several times, but each time they encounter great resistance and weaken it.

Later, a minister in the court traveled thousands of miles from the imperial capital to the emperor's Jincheng to offer advice to Mang Taihu, saying that he wanted Mang Taihu to come forward to Mang Kongtian in person: cut the domain!

It is definitely not possible to cut the feudal domain directly, the four princes are not stupid, they will join forces to resist the royal family, Mang Tailong is not Mang Taihu alone, and he wants to suppress the four princes, but he is also a little powerless.

It will certainly not work to cut the feudal domain directly, so use indirect means to weaken them.

After Mang Tailong defeated the Beast Clan Emperor, he drove all the remaining feelings of the Beast Clan to Wanghaizhou.

The beast clan is growing stronger and stronger in Wanghaizhou to recuperate, and the minister hopes that the emperor will order the princes of the Quartet to send troops to Wanghaizhou to exterminate the beast clan.

In this way, it can consume part of the forces of the princes of the four directions, so that their strength is exhausted, and they cannot grow steadily and steadily.

Mang Kongtian also sent eunuchs to convey the holy decree to the princes of the four directions, asking the princes of the four directions to send troops to expedition to Wanghaizhou, but it had no effect at all, and no one could come back alive after the eunuchs who conveyed the holy decree left the imperial city.

I don't know if he was intercepted and killed by robbers along the way, or secretly eliminated by the princes of the Quartet, who "did not receive the holy decree".

Later, the minister proposed that the emperor send the prince of the royal family, the princess, to lead a large number of royal guards to go down to deliver the decree in the form of inspections, but Mangkong Tian was unwilling to do so.

The minister approached Mang Taihu, and Mang Taihu felt that this method was indeed feasible, and it could indeed greatly weaken the strength of the princes of the Quartet, and they could not find a reason to refute it.

Mang Taihu personally went to the imperial city, and urged Mang Kongtian to send the royal children to the princes of the Quartet to send a message to King Qin.

Later, this clever plan of "cutting the feudal domain" was used by the royal family for hundreds of years.

When the princes of the Quartet sent troops, they were somewhat procrastinating and perfunctory, but no one dared to openly resist the holy decree and refuse to send troops.

Until recently, Shi Potian, the city lord of Iron Blood City, openly tore up the holy decree and refused to send troops after failing to pursue the princess!

Counterinsurgency?

You are a rebellion with a woolen line, you are dumb and incompetent, you can't extricate yourself from alcohol, the court is full of sycophants, and the real reckless Tailong period is brave and loyal, either retreating from the government and the opposition, or old age and falling.

In the current court, it is really a miasma of black smoke and extravagance.

From the middle of the court to the Ninety-Five, down to the civil and military officials, all they are thinking about is how to make a fortune by making a fortune, who cares if your imperial power is in decline or not?

It has been a few months since Shi Potian openly "rebelled", and the court is still thundering and raining.

The rebellion against the seal was flying all over the sky, but no one really led troops to Iron Blood City to quell the rebellion.

Iron Blood City did not send a single soldier, and the other three forces also stood still, although they did not openly rebel, they did not send a single soldier to support the royal family.

Mang Taihu has a premonition: In the near future, there will be an ultimate storm that will sweep the entire killing world!

The world pattern in the killing world will definitely be completely destroyed, and there will be a complete reshuffle.

When the world is in chaos and the edifice is about to collapse, the imperial power is a fart, and the power is the most critical.

The killing world is a place where the people are fierce, there are warriors everywhere, and there are many ruthless people who dare to fight hard, but if you want to be sold to you, you must give others generous benefits, and they will give you their lives if they are happy.

This requires a large amount of silver coins, Mang Taihu wants to expand his armament to deal with the troubled times, and Qin Xuan is now his "money bag".

After being silent for a long time, Mang Taihu continued: "In this way, if you don't want to marry your daughter, I won't force you, you go and inform the Seventh Princess, let her prepare a dowry to give the county lord of Cuixia to Qin Xuan!"

"What!" Yun Tianyan was also anxious, "Do you really want to marry the county lord to Qin Xuan, that pariah?"

Mang Taihu replied: "When my daughter grows up, she will marry sooner or later!"

"Even if you want to marry, you have to marry...... Only those royal children in the imperial city can be worthy of the status of the county lord, Qin Xuan, a pariah from the slums, is not worthy!"

Mang Taihu sneered and replied: "Marry the county lord to Qin Xuan, Qin Xuan can also give me a large sum of money to raise soldiers, what's the use of marrying those wastes in the capital?

"You ......" Yun Tianyan's face suddenly turned red, and he retorted decisively, "The nobility of the bloodline is innate, Qin Xuan is a lowly nouveau riche even if he is rich!"

"You're not going, aren't you?" Mang Taihu glared at Yun Tianyan fiercely and said, "If you don't go, I'll say it myself, what Lao Tzu lacks now is money, whoever can give me silver coins, he is my nobleman!"

"I can't take out the silver coin, even if that waste from Mangkong Sky comes, Lao Tzu won't pee on his pot!"

In the end, he said a cruel word, and Mang Taihu left without looking back, leaving Yun Tianyan standing alone on the spot, unable to say a word for a long time.

Early the next morning, Qin Xuan received a letter from the City Lord's Mansion, saying that he wanted Qin Xuan to prepare a dowry and go to the City Lord's Mansion to hire a wife.

On the back of the letter, there is also a gift slip issued by the Seventh Princess.

The royal family is a very large family, and the way the princess and the county lord marry is also very different from that of ordinary commoners. In addition to the dowry, there are also private gifts.

The dowry is given to the family, and the private gift is given to the princess's biological mother.

Because after the princess was born, she was basically brought up by the princess, and after the princess got married, the princess's palace was empty, and all the money for the dowry was taken away by the family, and the princess couldn't get it, so there was a rule of private gifts.

The dowry is "random", and the private gift is made by the princess according to her own preferences.

According to the custom, the princess will list 10 things she wants on the list of private gifts, and then the next person will prepare 3.6.9 gifts as a meeting gift according to her own ability, and hand them over on the day of marriage, which is a small episode of the wedding.

However, the list of private gifts issued by the "Seven Princesses" made Qin Xuan feel quite shocked.

Not only did she ask for money and things, but she also indicated in the list that she wanted a house, the house in the City of Death, it can be said that the lion opened his mouth.
