Next, the princes of the states led by the princes of the eight continents stood stiffly in the middle of the main hall, and they did not kneel and bow.

Emperor Ming pointed at the princes of the eight continents, and he angrily reprimanded: "Do you have any strange thoughts?"

Their bodies shook violently, and they turned over and knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "The Holy Emperor is wise, the barbarians are immortal, and I am restless!"

They knelt down this one of them, behind them

The princes of all sizes could only helplessly kneel down with them and bow to the Ming Emperor in praise. As a result, in the entire hall, except for Gonggong Lu and Gonggong Zhu, who were standing behind Emperor Ming, there was no one standing.

"Okay! Everyone works together, and the strength can break the gold!".

Emperor Ming slapped the jade case suddenly, laughed and said, "This is very good." Sima Kong, draft the documents, and pass the order, from today onwards, within my Tianlan Kyushu, all the military power and political power in the territory of the large and small princes will be owned by the court. The power of Tianlan is in the hands of this king, and this king should mobilize the power of the country and fight to the death with that barbarian!"

Emperor Ming continued: "Deputy Chief Qiu, from now on, from now on, among the four departments of the Auxiliary Prime Minister, will allocate capable manpower to count all private armies and even military and political official documents and various documents and account books in various places in Kyushu, and the court will appoint officials to take over in various places. ”

Emperor Ming looked at Qiu Han with a smile and asked loudly: "This king gives you a month, maybe this."

Done?"

Qiu Han leaned over and replied in a deep voice: "Holy Emperor, the necessary manpower has already been prepared, and the minister only needs ten days of hard work to complete this matter." After a month, the most elite troops in Kyushu, as well as all the food, grass, ordnance, and other goods, will be sent to the critical passes of our empire in accordance with the will of the Holy Emperor. ”

slapped his thigh hard, and Emperor Ming laughed loudly

"That's wonderful!"

He didn't look at the princes and princes with ugly faces,

Issued a long list of commands on his own. As long as these orders are carried out effectively, in just a few days, the princes and princes will be completely hollowed out by him, and they will be empty of their reputations, and they will only receive a small amount of taxes in their territories, but they will be deprived of all military and administrative powers.

Emperor Ming's heart was full of pride, hum! Damn the grassland barbarian! After this king is fully integrated, he will definitely wash the mountain with blood! He dares to disturb this king's ......plan to ascend to immortals.

When Qiu Han took the royal order and was about to leave the hall to implement the order of the Ming Emperor, the king of Taizhou in the west stood up fiercely and shouted loudly: "Holy Emperor!

Emperor Ming blinked his eyes in surprise, and he sighed

He said, "Is that really the case?"

King Mu Yan of Dongzhou in the south also stood up. he

Shen said: "Exactly. In the past, Yu Zu divided Kyushu, and the nine major families who made contributions to the great cause of opening up the territory were divided into Kyushu to supervise the world for Yu Zu, and the rest sat in the imperial capital to guard the center, and Yu Zu's lineage passed on the throne from generation to generation, and ruled it together with the nine major families, so there is the heyday of my Tianlan Empire over the years, so please also ask the Holy Emperor to think twice before acting. ”

King Yaohua of Qingzhou, who is in the north, got up, and he shouted loudly

Said: "Today, the Holy Emperor has taken back the power of many of my princes and corrupted the ancestral system, which is really a degrading act!"

King Feng Xi of Zhengdong Haizhou stood up, he was cold

Bing said: "The barbarians are invading, the empire is at a critical juncture, and the king is centralized. ”

Emperor Ming's complexion, whose face was getting worse and worse, just softened

Down, King Fengxi continued: "But...... If the king wants to centralize power, he only accepts the power of Kyushu, but not the power of many wealthy families, but what does it mean? Could it be that they are not Tianlan's courtiers?"

Qiu Han didn't say anything, he just turned around, slowly sat back in his place, turned his head and glanced lightly at Sima Kong, the prime minister beside him.

With a sigh, Sima Kong sighed: "The king collects."

It is only the military and political power in your territory that has been returned, and you have not regained your fiefdom, so why should you care about this private gain at this critical juncture when the country is facing great calamity?"

Prime Minister Li Li finally spoke. He's all right

Sitting on the mat, he said coldly: "What Sima Qinggong said is very appropriate. In the past 1,000 years, who has contributed the most to the resistance of the eastern moths in the east, the barbarians in the south, the barbarians in the Mangshan in the north, and the Huqian in the west? How many soldiers and horses have you mobilized and how many grains, grasses, and ordnance have you produced?

The faces of the eight great vassal kings sank at the same time. Bigong Nangong Jin said in a cold and strange voice beside him: "Is what the prime minister said right? How many deaths and injuries have the four of us, along with the children of the other families, killed? Dare to ask the eight vassal kings, this time we will transfer all the elites of each family to the passes of the imperial capital, what about your soldiers and horses?"

Nangong Jin sneered again and again, and Dazai Guo Huai on the side was dry

Ba sighed and said, "Alas, the soldiers and horses of the eight great feudal kings...... Alas...... If the city of Guanguan Pass is destroyed, and our people are killed or wounded, and the people of the eight vassal kings are all 'living and working in peace and contentment' in places where the barbarians have not attacked for the time being, how can they understand our suffering?"

The heads of the four major families attacked at the same time, and the representatives of the other wealthy families also became excited, and they began to ridicule the eight feudal kings one by one. The princes and princes of the vassal princes all had gloomy faces, and they were speechless.

In the end, King Feng Xi made a concession on their behalf.

"Great King, if the Great King can maintain the ancestral system, we will wait

I am willing to lead all the soldiers and horses under his command to follow the tail wing of the king and fight to the death against the grassland barbarians. ”

is also leading all the soldiers and horses, and is the king of the eight major domains

The leader is still led by the officers sent out by the court, and the difference is too great.

Emperor Ming was calm and calm, smiled faintly, and asked after a long time: "King Fengxi, if this king does not allow it, how do you wait?"

King Feng Xi stepped forward, and he shouted loudly: "If the Holy Emperor insists on destroying the ancestral system, our nine great vassal kings can only join forces to return to the Holy Emperor's decree and form a prison court to supervise the power of the court!"

The ancestral law of the Tianlan Empire, the king of Kyushu Domain jointly invited the ancestral hall of the ancestral hall, but the ancestral hall of the ancestral hall can depose the power of the Ming Emperor and supervise the court!

With a sigh, Emperor Ming leaned lazily

On the dragon throne, he said gloomily: "It's so good, just ask the nine feudal kings to jointly use the seal?"

The faces of Sima Kong, Li Li and others were exposed at the same time

A mysterious smile.

The eight vassal kings stayed where they were at the same time...... King Lu was assassinated, and now there are only eight vassal kings, how to seal back the royal decree of the Ming Emperor? How to jointly use the seal to ask the ancestral palace to supervise the court?

Qiu Han looked at the eight feudal kings, and his heart couldn't help but surge

Out of a bit of pity. Poor people, they haven't seen the situation clearly, even if King Lu is alive, what can they do? In addition to the support of the four major families of Emperor Ming, Emperor Ming also stands behind the most powerful and cold-blooded Shenji battalion in the empire, and sealing back the royal order is the only thing they can do now. But King Lu died sideways, and the eight major vassal kings jointly signed it, but they didn't have that power.

Waiting for King Lu's children and grandchildren to take over the throne of King Lu?

Tianlan ancestral law, where the vassal king is killed, the descendants must keep filial piety for one year before they can succeed to the throne. Within a year, it is impossible for the nine major feudal kings to jointly seal the royal decree. What's more, although King Lu was unintentionally killed by that kid, with the power in his own hands, wouldn't it be easy to kill another King Fengxi or someone else?

Shaking his head, Qiu Han walked out of the train again. He saluted to Emperor Ming and said loudly: "Holy Emperor, there is a young talent under his subordinates, who has an unpredictable ability, and who is loyal and loyal to the empire.

Including the eight great vassal kings with dark faces, everyone in the hall was stunned, and there was silence in the hall for an instant.

This autumn is too cold...... Are you not responsible for King Lu being attacked and killed? He is too direct, as a courtier, there is still such an official to Emperor Ming?

"Ahem, cough, oh, Deputy Head Qiu, what's the name of this young talent?"

Emperor Ming sighed in his heart, many civil and military officials, or his junior disciples, are the most considerate of themselves, and they know to relieve the siege at a critical time.

"Back to the Holy Emperor, his name is Jiang Xing, a native of Yanjing City. ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Emperor Ming was really choked, and the secret method transmitted: "Okay, you Senior Brother Qiu......! You're letting your killer son-in-law be an official? You're going to rob ...... fire?"

"He killed King Lu's father and son last night, hum!

"Ah...... Sima Kong, drafting the paperwork, and appointing that young talent Jiang Xing as the ...... Well, the eight-party patrol envoy, Zheng Liupin, is responsible for the verification of the laws and criminal names in various places......"

"Holy Emperor, King Lu is also a member of Yu Zu, a nobleman of the imperial family, but he was attacked and killed in the street in a frenzy, this is my great shame! I also hope that Your Majesty will strictly investigate this matter, kill the murderer, and return justice to my royal family. ”

King Fengxi's expression was awe-inspiring, and he said loudly with righteousness and solemnity.

"Hmph! There is a huge Yanjing City, and it is a great shame to let many barbarian killers sneak in and assassinate the vassal king of this dynasty!"

King Yaohua, King Mu Yan and other vassal kings looked even more sad and angry, gritted their teeth, and were united in hatred of the enemy.

"Ahem, ahem, Sima Kong......! The lord of Yanjing City was negligent in his duties and took precautions, so that the barbarian assassins infiltrated the city to assassinate the king of Lu. ”

"The lord of the city chose the four dukes, and in addition, in this case, Deputy Head Qiu was also derelict in his duties as the head of the Imperial Security Intelligence, and Deputy Head Qiu was fined 10,000 taels and suspended his salary for one year, and the Law Prosecutor was limited to crack the case within one month, catch the murderer, and return justice to King Lu and the royal family. Emperor Ming took a look at the autumn cold and secretly felt refreshed.

Uh-huh, empty-handed want to give your son-in-law an official......?

Senior brother, you ...... Despicable and shameless...... Where can I get silver? 10,000 taels? Why don't you want me to snatch that barbarian Empress Dowager Xiao to warm your feet?
