Next, a series of procedures went down, and Hong Yun officially became the saint of Cihang Jingzhai, ah, no, it should be a fairy.
The atmosphere of the banquet suddenly reached its peak.
"I didn't expect that you just saved a girl on the roadside and you are a martial arts prodigy."
Pei Lun, who had just finished a glass of fruit wine, looked quite emotional when he saw this scene.
Qin Geng wondered what he was thinking about.
There are so many geniuses in the world.
The reason why Hong Yun became a martial arts genius is entirely my fault.
Many years ago, while Qin Geng interfered with the ginkgo tree at home, he also interfered with Hong Yun.
Just like Xiao Yan warmed and nourished Xiao Xun'er's bones and meridians in the middle of the night, Qin Geng also secretly used his overwhelming internal force many times at night to warm and nourish Hong Yun's bones and tendons.
On the surface, Qin Geng echoed: "I didn't expect it either."
Pei Lun suddenly sighed.
"What are you sighing for?"
Qin Geng was puzzled.
"They're not the ones who don't live up to their expectations..."
Pei Lun became verbose.
Only then did Qin Geng realize how much headache Pei Lun had now.
Perun had five sons in total. They don't have much potential, and it costs money to start a family and start a business.
Although Pei Lun made a lot of money, he couldn't bear the burden of five sons. He was so worried that he couldn't sleep recently.
"Why did you have so many sons?"
Peasants and emperors like to have more children and more blessings. The former is to have someone to support them in old age and have free labor and force, and the latter is to stabilize the country. Other groups, especially the middle class like Pei Lun, want to have more children. In Qin Geng’s view, Somewhat seriously ill.
"I regret it too. It is said that having more children means you will be blessed. I didn't expect the blessings at all. My hair is almost falling out."
After Pei Lun finished speaking with a grimace, he touched the envelope hidden in his arms.
At this moment, the figure of a middle-aged woman caught Qin Geng's attention.
This woman was none other than Li Yingqi, who had previously ordered Shen Lian to burn the records of the Ministry of Punishment, and was blackmailed by him into using the art of connecting to the underworld.
Li Yingqi did not recognize Qin Geng and entered the inner courtyard directly.
Qin Geng felt strange and sent a message to ask Hong Yun: "Who is that middle-aged woman?"
Hong Yun responded via voice transmission: "She is from the Qingyun Temple, a hidden sect, and her name is Li Yingqi."
Qingyun Temple?
Qiu Qiluo, one of the Four Continental Immortals, is not the great uncle of Qingyun Temple.
No wonder Li Yingqi knows the art of trance.
Qin Geng turned his head, and another person came in. It turned out to be Shi Heng, the general of the Beijing camp. Like Li Yingqi, this man went directly into the inner hall.
Qin Geng asked curiously: "What are these people here for?"
Hong Yun responded: "I don't know either. No junior is allowed to participate in the inner court proceedings."
Qin Geng continued the message: "I understand, Cihang Jingzhai's successor ceremony is just a cover."
"Front"
Hong Yun was confused.
"You'll find out soon enough."
Qin Geng is now almost certain that a coup against Yu Su and Taide is about to happen.
Maybe it will be tonight.
Just then there was chaos outside.
"The Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult is Here"
"I came here to be the successor of Cihang Jingzhai."
"It seems that a fight between dragons and tigers is inevitable between the two sides."
…
Unlike Pei Lun, he immediately got up and went out to watch the fun.
Qin Geng didn't even move.
Even if he didn't watch the contest between the two, he knew that Hong Yun would win.
No matter how well treated the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect is, it is impossible for an old monster with three hundred years of internal power to warm her bones and groom her veins.
Soon, news came from outside that Hong Yun had easily won.
…
In a blink of an eye, the banquet was coming to an end.
At this moment, Qin Geng heard whispers in the inner hall.
It seems that the Supreme Emperor was mentioned.
Qin Geng, with an expression as if he was eating a melon, ducked over and listened.
"The eight major sects support the Emperor's restoration."
"Longxi Li family, Zhaojun Li family, Taiyuan Wang family, Langya Wang family, Hongnong Yang family, Chenjun Xie family, Qinghe Cui family, Xingyang Zheng family, Fanyang Lu family, Taiyuan Wen family, Peixian Liu family, Lan family The Lingxiao family all support the restoration of the Supreme Emperor."
"Thirty-two princes including Zhou Dynasty, Jin, Qin, Qilu and others supported the restoration of the Supreme Emperor"
"Sixteen retired pavilion elders support the restoration of the Supreme Emperor"
"Four major salt merchants support the restoration of the Supreme Emperor"
"Qingyun Temple supports the restoration of the Supreme Emperor"
…
Shi Heng, who was standing at the top, said excitedly: "The Emperor said that as long as he is restored to his position, everything will remain as usual."
A short, suppressed cheer erupted in the inner courtyard.
Then they all criticized Yu Su:
"In the past eight years when Yu Su was in power, he suppressed martial artists on the grounds that chivalry and martial arts violated the ban. The Dafeng Wulin was about to wither. If Yu Su was left in power for another eight years, the Dafeng Wulin would probably become the food of the martial arts of other countries. ”
"In the past eight years, the imperial court has imposed more exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes than in the past thirty years. If we can rely on exorbitant exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes to stabilize the country, we and other businessmen will just go home and farm."
"When Yu Su was in charge of the country, the number of officials doubled, and most of the money gained from reforms went into the hands of this generation. What does it mean to compete with the people for profits? This is called competing with the people for profits."
Qin Geng wanted to laugh when he heard this.
Every one of them is confident and righteous.
He had inspected Yu Su's reforms.
From the perspective of the court, it was of course a great thing. It increased a lot of income and allowed the court to do many things, such as disaster relief, strengthening the military, carrying out large-scale water conservancy projects, and providing full salaries to officials so that officials could have money for their retirement.
From the perspective of warriors, gentry, princes and merchants, it was a great misrule. The land was divided, the power was weakened, and the control of the bottom was lost. Facing the court, it was completely powerless to fight back. You must know that the court was not without feelings. The program is composed of officials and subordinates, which is equivalent to reducing them to lambs like the bottom.
False humanity: everyone is equal.
True human nature: above oneself, all living beings are equal, but below oneself, there is a strict hierarchy!
Li Yingqi, who had been silent, asked Shi Heng: "When will we do it?"
"Just tonight"
"So fast"
Li Yingqi was a little surprised.
Shi Heng said: "Your Majesty is already terminally ill. This is the best time to take action."
Li Yingqi asked: "Who will deal with Sunflower Eunuch? He is the real land god."
Shi Heng smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, Eunuch Sunflower doesn't care who becomes the emperor."
"The only thing worth worrying about now is Yu Su. If he fights to the death, we may not be able to get rid of him. As far as I know, Yu Su used the money and food obtained from the reform to recruit many first-rate and second-rate warriors. Most of the military lieutenant generals also support Yu Su. , although their top ones are not strong, they are better with more people.”
"No, I know Yu Su better than you. He won't let Dafeng's blood flow into a river."
"I can rest assured that"
The two talked for a few more words and stopped talking about this topic.
Then he chatted with everyone about the land losses that Yu Su had caused to everyone since he came to power.
More than thirty princes lost tens of millions of acres of land, and a dozen retired pavilion elders lost more than three million acres of land.
The eight sects lost five million acres of land.
Even the hidden sect Qingyun Temple lost 200,000 acres of land.
Qin Geng stood up and left, taking a melon with him.
Tonight, he wanted to eat melon and watch a show at the same time.
