I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, what a pity for those two top-notch women. I don’t know that it is now in the hands of the imperial court. Will she become the new concubine of the dog emperor who likes mature and charming women, or will she become the meat in the mouth of that official? I don't know when I can enjoy those two women again. When he thought of those two women, who were so alive and beautiful, he felt heartbroken.
Those two women were identical in terms of beauty, figure, and skill in that area. This is the first time for me to meet such a pleasant person. It's a pity that when I broke through in Nan'an, I had no choice but to leave him behind because of the situation. Although the appearance and figure of the three in front of me are not bad, they are too dull in that regard. Even if he was drugged, he would only fight passively.
This old man is still old-hearted, and he doesn't know that the princess of Yuzhang County has been killed by Situ Huanshuang. The imperial concubine, under the influence of King Yong Li Daitao, finally escaped and became the King of Han who was forbidden by King Yong. While he kept feeling sorry for those two women in his heart, he also vented all the accumulated anger from the consecutive defeats on the battlefield on these three women who were his sister-in-law.
With the help of medicine, I struggled for most of the night before falling asleep. When I got up early the next morning, I didn't realize that I had lost my virginity to him. Although he was extremely angry, because of his past vicious and vicious style, the three women who did not dare to come forward to tear him up directly put on their clothes and walked away. There were only three women left behind who only dared to cry softly, but did not even dare to curse.
Not long after he left, a shocking event occurred in the former Guilin County Prince's Mansion, now the Han Prince's Mansion. It turned out that the first-class Fengguo general who belonged to the Guilin County Prince's Palace rebelled. Mrs. Jiuye, who was named the Guilin County Prince by the court, suddenly committed suicide with scissors in her bedroom. When he died, except for being wrapped in a curtain, he was completely naked.
After hearing the news, the King of Han was discussing the matter of his ascension to the throne with the few remaining advisers in his study. But there wasn't even a hint of reaction. He just gave cold instructions and threw the woman's body out to feed the dogs, but never said a word about the matter again. But the counselors present who knew his habits unanimously guessed the reason why Mrs. Liu Jiuye committed suicide.
One of the slightly older counselors could not help but frown slightly. He sighed secretly in his heart: "We are currently discussing the matter of this master's ascension to the throne, but he did not expect that something like this would happen. Not only did someone die in the house, but the wife of his ninth brother's wife was also killed. Something happened right now. Things like this are really quite ominous. It would be better to postpone the enthronement ceremony."
He just raised his head and looked up. After learning about this, the Lord looked uncertain. After thinking about how this master always treated people who were against his will without mercy, the counselor hesitated for a moment and finally swallowed the idea of persuasion. He was worried that when the time came, he would not succeed in persuading him, but would instead involve himself and become the target of the Lord's wrath.
Moreover, he did not agree with this Lord ascending the throne as emperor at this time. Not to mention that the war situation is like this now, even if the war situation is going smoothly, as long as the sky is not clear for a day, it will not be time to ascend the throne. The reason is very simple, because the lord himself rebelled in the name of Qingjun. No matter how lame the excuse is, at least the banner is to plead for the people.
The officials you bribed, as well as the gentry who have some conflicts with the court, will support you as long as you can reach them. These people themselves are just outsiders. But now that you have officially ascended the throne as emperor, it is tantamount to open rebellion. Not only is it unfair in terms of justice and orthodoxy, but it will even lose the hearts of the people. Even a fool knows that rebellion will result in losing one’s head.
Some of those who were blind followers may soon die out. There are indeed many people who are bold enough to encourage him to rebel and who want to become the founding hero of the country. Most people can cooperate with you and rebel, but if they follow you in rebellion, they may not have other thoughts. Even those barbarians may not follow you honestly. But with this Lord’s temperament, who would dare to persuade him?
And looking at the enthusiasm in the eyes of others, this one was still a bit mature and prudent. Knowing that he was probably the only counselor from the Awakening faction among this group, he didn't say anything in the end. Looking at the Lord in front of him again, he looked almost different from the previous high-spirited Lord, full of drunkenness and lust. He shook his head secretly, and he couldn't help but have the idea of getting away as soon as possible.
Naturally, no one would pay attention to the complicated thoughts in this counselor's mind. Most of the people here were still focusing on the Lord's enthronement ceremony and the selection of officials. In fact, there is nothing to discuss about the so-called enthronement. It's nothing more than choosing a good day and building some places for worshiping heaven and earth. As for the palace, there is naturally no time to build it now.
The royal palace, which is originally magnificent and more magnificent than the ordinary prince's palace, can be used as a temporary residence. As for eunuchs, although there are not as many eunuchs as those in the palace who are secretly used beyond the limit, there are still two to three hundred people. These were all castrated by the prince privately from the Yi tribes in the west of Guangnan, and they were enough for the moment at least.
The real problem is the selection of officials at all levels. Three provinces, six ministries, six temples and nine ministers, civil servants and military generals are all needed. Fortunately, most of the original civil servants on Guangnan East-West Road belonged to this master, whether voluntarily or not. In addition, a group of civilian officials were captured or surrendered from Hunan and Fujian, and there was still no shortage of officials. But in this position, how to distribute them is the real problem.
But these things are not things to talk about at this time. After deciding on their ascension to the throne, these people got busy. Compared with the haste when he established Emperor Hongwu, this time someone's own enthronement ceremony was much more detailed. On the one hand, he ordered the alchemists to choose an auspicious day for him. On the one hand, they forcibly recruited civilians to build altars for enthroning and worshiping heaven and earth.
Of course, the sooner the better, at least everything must be completed before the rest of the army is completed. Therefore, many things are also a bit messy. At least although the altar was completed, it looked somewhat sloppy. And compared with the several large altars in Jingzhao Mansion, which are used to worship heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, and mountains and rivers, one altar here represents everything.
The following days were very busy for him. During the day, she discussed candidates for various positions, and at night, she was busy with women. But as the scheduled day got closer and closer, seeing that his lifelong dream was about to be realized, he became more and more anxious. What was even more surprising to him was that the civil servants were not enthusiastic about his upcoming proclaimed emperor, and were resistant to the official positions he was appointed to.
Although he knew very well why those civil servants were not enthusiastic about his ascension to the throne. These people were worried that if they officially ascended the throne as emperor, they would have no way out. It turns out that they were treason at best, and since they ascended the throne as emperor, they were out-and-out puppet officials. If they fall into the hands of the imperial court, these people will basically be punished by death. If the situation were not as bad as it is now.
Even if he only occupies Jiangnan, if he ascends the throne and becomes emperor, those civil servants will naturally be happy to be the ministers of the dragon. But now that the situation has reached its current stage, these people are probably changing their methods to find a way out for themselves. The problem now is that I understand the dirty thoughts of those civil servants. But this is the master who always does things without scruples, and is ruthless in his actions without leaving any consequences.
There is not much that can be done with those powerless civil servants. Because he knew that killing people at this time would not solve the problem. This can indeed conquer the world immediately, but it cannot govern the world immediately. You must rely on these civil servants to implement administrative orders, govern local areas, and collect taxes and labor. There are still some counselors around him, but it's okay for those people to engage in some conspiracies.
When it comes to governing the world, they are still far behind. What's more, if you can kill one or two, you can't kill all the civil servants in the area you control. If you really kill all these people, who will take control of the place for you. He could only use hard and soft tactics to deal with these dirty officials. For those civil servants, they were granted official appointments and promised generous rewards, and most officials were promoted to more than one level.
Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province were also abolished, and only one Shangshu Province was established among the three provinces and six ministries. Others have divisions, or they only have two or three officials, or they are not organized at all. In this way, he could barely put together the civil service system that ensures the most basic operation, ensuring that his future world can maintain the most basic operation. But there were still a few civil servants who escaped before being forced to take up new positions.
The behavior of these civil servants made him even more irritated. In turn, he vented his anger on the woman. Before he ascended the throne, this man seemed to be in a vicious cycle. On the one hand, he was thinking about where to select officials every day, and on the other hand, he strictly ordered his own manpower and kept an eye on those selected officials to prevent them from escaping. On the one hand, because of the depression in my heart, I can sing every night.
He was already in his sixties, and no matter how good his body and bones were, he still wouldn't be able to withstand such a torment. What's more, just to add to the fun, they take those tiger and wolf medicines. The almost endless cutting every night caused his originally strong body to collapse quickly. Feeling that his body was weak and hollowed out, he took a lot of various tonics every day.
The enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, and he is already much older. Only by relying on the mountain of various tonics accumulated over the generations in the palace, including the high-quality ginseng smuggled in from Bei Liao every day for cooking, could he still maintain his spirits. But those tonics, to a certain extent, are also the medicine of tigers and wolves. Eating too much can be extremely harmful to the body.
Before Liu Jinli left, he had been worried about his father's indulgence. He repeatedly tried to persuade her, but failed to achieve any results. Instead, she repeatedly caused her father's displeasure. In the end, he was even kicked out of the palace. Helpless Liu Jinli was worried that if things continued like this, the Guilin County Prince's Palace would suffer disaster sooner or later, so he could only secretly take away his nephews.
With the departure of Liu Jinli, who had been able to listen to advice to some extent, this master became unscrupulous again. Even in broad daylight, women were dragged to vent their anger. The number of women called at one time ranges from two or three to five or six or more. During these days, from his concubines, even his brother's concubines, to all the pretty maids and wives, no one could escape his clutches.
Under the constant slashing with countless bone scrapers, the master's bones became increasingly weak. Although preparations for the enthronement ceremony were still ongoing, he showed signs of defeat before he even ascended the throne. These actions of his made the old people in the mansion shake their heads in silence. Including the civil servants who were forcibly recruited by him to Jingjiang Mansion, they were even more worried that his rebellion might not last long.
