Chapter 12: The Puppet Emperor
Xiao Qi walked in the air, and the hunting night wind blew on her cheeks, cool and comfortable.
It is good to have the Soul Killing Immortal Pen, which is not only convenient to travel but also provides an excellent view, and all the buildings in the city, even a very narrow alley, cannot escape her eyes.
She looked down at the capital of Yuncheng and walked towards the palace.
At night, the streets of Cloud City have been completely darkened because of the curfew, and there is no idler walking on the street except for the watchman.
Xiao Qi identified it in the air, the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Shangshu Mansion, and the General's Mansion, these places were still lit up, but the palace was completely darkened like an ordinary house.
Xiao Qi wondered in his heart, if a country is very strong, the busiest person is the monarch.
This Fuyun Country is not weak in China among the four major powers, and the emperor should not be very idle.
The normal situation should be that the emperor picks up the lantern and approves the folds all night, and the courtiers usually go to bed early in the middle of the night.
But judging from the appearance, this Floating Cloud Country is the opposite.
No matter what they are busy doing, there must be demons when things are abnormal.
"I said system, can you give me some information about the situation in the court, so that I can unite my allies to complete the task as soon as possible."
System: "Some of them can tell you."
This Fuyun Country, when the country was founded, was laid by the Fu family and the Yun family with the assistance of the Mo family.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the head of the Mo family naturally became the emperor, the head of the Yun family was named prime minister, and the head of the Fu family was named a general.
The Mo family thanked the Yunfu family for their merits, and took the Fuyun Country when they named the country.
The Yun Fu family was loyal and good generals at the beginning, and together with the Mo family, they led the civil and military officials to govern the country together, making the Fuyun Kingdom steadily become the head of the four major powers. The country is rich and the people are strong, a peaceful and prosperous era, the three major families are praised by the people, and the first emperor of the Mo family is known as a generation of Tianjiao.
But as time went by, the Fu and Mo families gave up their cultivation for the country and put all their minds on governing the country, only the Yun family adhered to the ancestral teachings, and all the future generations would embark on the path of cultivation.
The Yun family's family is also becoming stronger and stronger because of cultivation, and the Mo family is always polite to the Yun family, which makes some of the walls of the court look at it, and they see that the prime minister is powerful, and they collude with him in private, form a party to exclude dissidents, and begin to play with power tricks to empty the imperial power.
When the Yun family gathered the power of the court, only the Fu family refused to go along with it, and the Fu family became the first stumbling block on the way to the Yun family's power.
The Yun family united with other courtiers to set up a conspiracy for the Fu family, and the Fu family fell into a trap and was robbed of military power by the Yun family. The official position was also directly demoted from the general to the Shangshu, leaving a vacant post for the Fu family, becoming a useless minister who had no real power and the right to speak.
In this world, it is too easy for cultivators to control a group of mortals, and the Yun family is behind in cultivation, causing the emperor, who is just 18 years old, to become a puppet of the Yun family.
At present, it is very difficult for the emperor to do anything in the court, the huge court, civil and military officials, only the Fu family still supports all the emperor's decisions, but the soldier talisman and jade seal have long fallen into the hands of the Yun family, he is just a puppet, and the head of the Yun family treats his words as a fart.
The Mo family now has only one descendant of the emperor, he was limited by the Yun family to sleep when he ascended the throne at the age of three, and the lights must be turned off when the hour comes, otherwise the innocent palace maids and eunuchs in the palace will be executed by the Yun family.
The emperor was merciful and did not want to endanger others because of himself, even if he could not sleep in the dead of night, he would turn off the lights and pretend to sleep.
That's why the courtiers are lit and the palace is dark."
Xiao Qi heard this: "I have always known that the Yun family is arrogant and domineering, and I don't want to be so arrogant, floating clouds and floating clouds, this is a floating cloud covering the world, and the Fu Mo family is regarded as nothing."
Then why didn't the Yun family directly claim the emperor?"
"The Yun family is very good, directly calling the emperor a rebellion, even if he is the emperor, his reputation is not good at all, they just want to force the descendants of the Mo family to take the throne like this, both for nothing and for a good name, the world will praise the Yun family for being the general of the building and a generation of heroes."
"Think beautifully"!
In the previous life, the Yun family did let the descendants of the Mo family give way, they were originally a family of cultivators, and then there was a throne by their side, and all other countries in the world bowed down to the Fuyun Country, and the territory area was expanded nearly ten times compared to the original.
But it is also a good thing that the Yun family can serve the country and the people, but they devote the power of a country to help the descendants of the Yun family to practice, and impose taxes, resulting in starvation and misery for the people everywhere, but the ordinary people who are mortals can only dare to be angry and dare not speak, and let them squeeze them.
At that time, I was powerless to compete with them, and I hid in the dark domain and didn't dare to show my face, so I could only let the Yun family run amok.
This time it is completely different from before, no one in this mortal world can match me in terms of cultivation, the ancestors of his family have all died in my hands, and this group of juniors can still turn the sky upside down.
Xiao Qi landed on the beam of the emperor's bedroom, uncovered a piece of tiles and opened the spiritual sense to look down.
Because of the blessing of spiritual consciousness in the hall, the dark environment is like day in Xiao Qiyan's eyes.
There was no one in the hall at this time, and there was a curtain on the dragon bed to cover it, and there was a person who was faintly asleep.
Xiao Qi was on the roof for a while, and then saw a porcelain cup fall out of the dragon bed, and the man's suppressed roar and the sound of porcelain breaking sounded at the same time.
The roar fell, and a voice that was neither male nor female said: "Your Majesty, these three watches are in the middle of the night, take care of the dragon body, and have a good rest."
Xiao Qi distinguished the direction, that person was standing in a corner, not far from the emperor, and he must have been the eunuch next to the emperor.
The emperor was annoyed and reprimanded, "Rest and rest, rest all year round, you might as well tell your master and let him kill me."
"Oh, you calm your anger and go to bed.
It's not good for the old slave to say anything else to you, invade well, and you can still sit on the dragon chair tomorrow, otherwise, you can only be informed by the miscellaneous family that you are bedridden again, and cancel the early dynasty."
"You are a dead eunuch, even you come to threaten me, one day, I will let you die a good death", the emperor's tone was extremely resentful, and the eunuch laughed instead of anger after hearing it, "Hey, you take care of the present first, I don't know where your tomorrow is."
"Dog minion, get out".
A rolling word was stretched extremely long, and then the wheezing sound was long.
The emperor was obviously angry, but fortunately he was young, if it was an old man in his last years, I was afraid that he would have been so angry that he would not be able to come up in one breath.
Xiao Qi floated into the hall and tiptoed in the direction where the eunuch's voice came from.
Since you are a eunuch, you should keep your duty, you have already cut off your descendants, and you don't know how to earn a way out for yourself.
Since you are so disobedient to your duty, I will come to tease you and tease your bullshit master.
