Chapter 54: The Nightcrawler (2)
[]
The Imperial Study.
The lights are bright, the red candles are burning, and the candle tears quietly slide down on the candlesticks, forming a variety of mysterious patterns, which attract people's attention.
After Emperor Xia finished the last recital, he stood up, opened the door, and looked at the goose-feathered snow outside the door.
"Hey"
I couldn't help but sigh faintly.
A hint of anxiety appeared on his intimidated face, and he muttered a little irritably: "In March of previous years, the ice and snow have melted, the temperature has become warmer, and the grass grows and the warbler flies, which is the season for farmers to sow seeds. ”
"But this year, why doesn't the snow keep falling and the temperature doesn't rise?"
Emperor Xia was worried, raised his eyes and asked the sky: "God, how many people of Great Xia do you have to freeze to death before you are willing to stop?"
"If you make it snowing like this again, what will happen to my crops this year?"
"If you don't sow seeds in spring, there will be no harvest in autumn, are you going to exterminate the people of my Great Xia Kingdom?"
Slowly.
Emperor Xia's face became more and more angry: "Since I sat on this dragon chair, I have been conscientiously governing the world, and I think I am more diligent than the emperors of the pre-Qin Dynasty, but why are my people still not fed and clothed?"
He raised his hand to the sky and roared, "Tell me, why?"
"Am I really not doing well?"
"You want to make a reprieve?"
"Do you want me to admit to the world that it was my mistake that made God angry and made this world blizzard non-stop?"
"Tell you, it can't be!"
"I'm not wrong!"
"I won this throne by virtue of my strength and integrity!"
At this time.
Around Emperor Xia.
All the eunuchs, palace maids, and guards were so frightened that they fell to their knees, and they didn't dare to raise their heads, so they wanted to cover their ears as if they didn't hear.
Only the historian is vibrating his pen and writing a book, recording the words and deeds of Emperor Xia.
The so-called edict of oneself is an oracle or document in which the emperor examines or examines his own mistakes and mistakes when there is a problem in the imperial court, the country suffers a natural disaster, and the regime is in danger.
I hope that through this way of self-blame, God can see the sincerity of the emperor and get God's help.
This method is used by all countries on this continent.
At this time.
After Emperor Xia roared, his heart seemed to feel a lot more comfortable: "Old thing, what do those old guys in Qin Tianjian say?"
"When is this blizzard going to stop?"
Qin Tianjian is the institution in charge of observing the celestial phenomena and calculating the solar terms calendar in the Bactrian court.
The old eunuch hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Qin Tianjian said that there is a vision in the sky this year, not only my Great Xia Kingdom has encountered a spring cold, but on this continent, other empires are the same as us, under the madness of the blizzard. “
Emperor Xia's heart was much more comfortable this time: "Let them sacrifice to the gods of heaven and earth, and pray to the heavens to stop the blizzard." ”
"Yes!"
"Old thing, I heard that there are rumors outside that the Great Xia Kingdom has been blizzling non-stop this year, is it because I have lost my virtue and have been punished by God?"
A cold light flashed in the old eunuch's eyes: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the old slave has sent the elite of the Imperial City Division to investigate this matter, and has obtained some clues, and within three days, the person who spread rumors behind the scenes will be arrested!"
Emperor Xia couldn't help but be interested: "What clues did you find?"
The old eunuch replied with a somewhat solemn expression: "The Vertical and Horizontal School of the Former Qin Dynasty has been born!"
"There's a good chance it has something to do with them!"
A chill flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes, and he said thoughtfully: "As the old saying goes, there are clouds, vertical and horizontal, the world is chaotic, and the lives are ruined." ”
"In the heyday, the Zongheng School usually secluded itself in the world, doing knowledge and martial arts behind closed doors, but only asking about secular things. ”
"However, once there is chaos in the world, they are like dirt dogs that smell dog poop, like sharks that smell blood in the sea, and they begin to send people into the world to make the world even more chaotic. ”
"Then they can prove to the world that the knowledge of the Zongheng School is the most useful knowledge in the world!"
"Ambitious, his heart can be punished!"
"Old thing, do you say yes?"
The old eunuch hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty is right!"
"The people of the Zongheng School are all-stirring sticks that disturb the world, and they appear in my Great Xia Dynasty, and there must be a conspiracy. ”
"Wait a minute, the old slave will personally go out of the palace and wipe out all the people of the Zongheng School, cutting down the grass and eradicating the roots. ”
The murderous aura made the imperial study look a little colder.
"Hahaha"
Emperor Xia smiled reassuringly: "Okay, it's up to you to take action personally, none of those disciples of the Zongheng School will definitely be able to escape." ”
"Still, I'm going to live. ”
"Understood?"
The old eunuch was stunned for a moment, and a string of cold sweat broke out on his head: "Yes!"
"Don't kill, catch it alive, and let His Majesty interrogate it personally. ”
The emperor's heart is still unfathomable.
Never, you will never be able to guess what he thinks.
Suddenly.
Emperor Xia changed the topic: "Old thing, is there any news from Xiao Jiu?"
This question made the old eunuch's face change greatly.
"Puff"
He knelt on the ground again, and the cold sweat on his head was even more: "Your Majesty forgives your sins!"
"Over there of the Nine Emperor Princes, a lot of things have happened!"
"Because something happened to the spies of the Imperial City Division, it was a long time before the situation on the side of the Nine Emperor Princes was transmitted!"
Emperor Xia frowned: "What happened to the spies sent out by the Imperial City Division?"
The old eunuch said with a sad face: "This morning, the Imperial City Division sent a total of six groups of spies []
