at this time.
On the tower of the west gate of the imperial capital.
The guard of the West City Gate stood at the arrow stack and looked out. The teams transporting grain into the city could not be seen to the end. The torches were as numerous as the stars in the sky, as if they were lighting up the entire Western Mountain and the wilderness!
He walked down the city wall to the city gate and looked thoughtfully at the servants transporting grain!
I saw that these servants were not only strong, but also had sharp eyesight. They were like knives in their eyes, completely different from ordinary servants!
He raised his eyelids and said, "Listen, every convoy entering the city must be searched to see if there is any illegal activity involved?"
"yes!"
The soldiers at the West City Gate picked up their swords and guns, preparing to search the Gong family's motorcade at the front!
The leader of the Gong family's motorcade was shocked. He hurriedly trotted to the west city guard, took out a silver bag and quietly stuffed it into his hand: "General, there are some local specialties in the car that my family master brought into the city, and they are going to be sent to the palace. Ruoyin The search damage is so small that I can’t explain it!”
At this time.
The general of the Imperial City Defense Battalion hurriedly walked to the gate of the city, looked at the leader of the Gong family's motorcade and said, "No need to check, let's go directly. There are so many grain teams coming to the city, we can't delay the money and grain entering the treasury, otherwise you and I will both I can’t bear it!”
"Let go!"
"yes!"
The west city gatekeeper no longer insisted: "Let us go!"
"Don't block the city gate!"
"yes!"
The imperial city defense camp general turned around and left: "I will go to the other three gates to have a look!"
"Congratulations, General!"
At this time.
The leader of the Gong family's motorcade also said goodbye respectfully: "Thank you, general. I will transport the grain to the treasury now and I will never block the passage!"
Then, he sent a message to the God's capital city defense camp guard: "The head of the family is trapped in the palace. The boss has given orders to put all the private soldiers of each family into the city. If there is a change in the palace, you should be prepared for an uprising." !”
"knew!"
The guard of the imperial capital city defense camp said with a solemn expression: "Tell the person in charge that most of the generals in the city defense camp are members of various families, and they can start an uprising at any time!"
"good!"
The generals of the Imperial City Defense Camp mounted their horses and left!
He took his personal guards to inspect the other three city gates!
So, one by one, the grain transport teams entered the city unimpeded and headed towards each house. After unloading the weapons and armor from the vehicles, they escorted the money and grain to the treasury!
At this time, the guard of the west city of the imperial capital walked into the darkness and whispered to the guards: "Tell the palace that private troops have entered the city!"
"yes!"
The bodyguards of the West City Guards rode away!
now.
In the darkness of the four major gates of the imperial capital, there are young men with hidden swords hiding. They secretly record the number of private soldiers entering the city, and evaluate the weight of the carriage...assess the status of the armaments loaded inside!
at this time.
The situation of the other three major city gates of the Imperial Capital is the same as that of the West City Gate. They are all grain transport convoys that cannot be seen at a glance, and they are all prairie fires that are invisible at a glance, as if they are coming from all directions to burn the "pot" of the Imperial Capital red!
at this time.
the other side.
"Da da da......."
At the gate of the imperial palace, countless imperial soldiers came out on horseback. The horses' hooves stepped on the bluestone road of the imperial capital, and the sound was very clear!
They quickly rushed into the streets and alleys of the imperial capital and conveyed the orders of the King of Huangzhou to the six departments!
Now that all the six ministers are in prison, the first decree jointly issued by the left and right prime ministers in the palace is... to put the ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry in charge of the government affairs of the six ministries. !
What is a minister?
To put it bluntly, he is the assistant of the Liubu Shangshu. In terms of official positions, the Liubu Shangshu is a first-rank official, and the Liubu Minister is a second-rank official!
"Da da da......"
"Is the Minister of Justice here?"
The Forbidden Army sent an order to the Minister of the Military and Punishment Department to rein in the war horse in front of the door: "Your Majesty the Right Prime Minister has given an order. The Ministry of Punishment and Punishment will immediately send people to search for the whereabouts of the Rebirth Cult. Once discovered, they will be arrested immediately. If they dare to resist, they will be killed without mercy!"
"Commander, please wait a moment, I'll go report it now!"
Shortly after.
The Minister of Punishment hurriedly came to the gate, respectfully took the order and looked at it carefully, his face changed greatly: "Please report back to the right minister, I will do it immediately!"
Shortly after.
In the Courtyard of the Ministry of Justice.
"Swish swish..."
One by one, the sleepy-eyed masters of the Punishment Department flew into the courtyard, with serious expressions on their faces: "Your Excellency, have people from the Rebirth Cult entered the imperial capital again?"
"yes!"
The Minister of Justice's face was serious: "The Right Prime Minister sent us a warrant, ordering us to search for people from the Rebirth Cult throughout the city and eradicate them!"
"yes!"
Experts from the Criminal Department were dispatched one after another.
They looked at the grain transport convoys passing through the city and the strong servants of each family, and they all narrowed their eyes!
They are all old men from the Ministry of Justice who have extensive experience in handling cases. They can see that each private army is extraordinary and that they are different from ordinary slaves!
The spy from the Imperial City Division in the Criminal Department secretly ran towards the palace!
The other group of people directly followed the teams escorting money and food from each family, watching them carefully like an eagle, which made each private army feel uncomfortable!
How to get rid of these nasty criminal hawks?
So, someone went to see the Minister of Justice!
the other side.
"Da da da......"
The imperial guards ordered soldiers to ride to the house of the Minister of Hubu: "Is the Minister of Hubu here?"
"exist!"
Inside the door, the Minister of Household Affairs who was listening to the commotion outside went out: "Did the envoy come with the holy order?"
"It's the right minister's order!"
The Imperial Army messenger handed the order to the Minister of Household Affairs: "Your Excellency, the right minister said that each family is transporting money and grain to the treasury, and orders you to open the treasury immediately to receive it. The money and grain shipped by each family to the treasury must be recorded clearly, and there must be no difference in money. , You can’t miss a single grain!”
"As you command!"
The Minister of Household Affairs received the order: "Please report back to Your Excellency, I will go to the treasury immediately to receive money and food!"
"Farewell!"
The imperial army ordered the soldiers to ride away!
Shortly after.
The door of the treasury was opened, and the convoys from various companies who came to pay money and food arrived just in time. The amount received was so large that the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs, who were not from wealthy families, were shocked!
Has everyone changed their gender?
Want to change from a bully to a good person?
Now with this money and food, the operation of the Daxia court will not be stretched, and the life of the Ministry of Revenue will be easier!
The King of Huangzhou is truly a wise master worth following!
time flies.
In the Tianxia Palace of the Imperial Palace.
A eunuch hurriedly walked to Emperor Xia and whispered softly!
The emperor's expression changed!
He glanced at all the family heads: "News just came from outside the palace. Each family went out to the city overnight to raise money and food, and it is being transported to the treasury. It deserves praise!"
"Come on, let's have some singing and dancing, and let's continue the night banquet!"
"yes!"
The beautiful singers continue to dance!
A palace maid poured wine for Xia Tian and conveyed the message: "Your Majesty, arrangements have been made at Gushan Palace and they are ready to launch according to the plan!"
Xia Tian nods!
good!
Everything will begin!
He stood up, raised his glass and said, "Fellow heads of the family, I have offended you many times since I came to the court, and I feel deeply ashamed. This glass of wine is to honor past misunderstandings. Come on, let's do it!"
"Dry!"
The family heads reluctantly had sex with Xia Tian!
This is strong wine from the barren state. The wine is good and can make people intoxicated quickly!
Let’s toast with a glass of wine!
The corner of Xia Tian's mouth raised a hint of meaning, and he picked up a second glass: "Family heads, we don't know each other even if we don't fight. The second glass of wine... I wish we could have a night banquet together. It's inexplicable. Open fate!"
"There is a saying in the deserted state, deep feelings, one mouthful... do it!"
The heads of the houses helplessly picked up their wine glasses: "Dry!"
If this is fate, then it must be bad fate!
Immediately afterwards.
Xia Tian picked up the third glass of wine and said: "There is a saying in Huangzhou... If you are not a family, you will not enter the same door. Today we are in the Tianxia Palace together. Tonight we are ministers of the same court. We will meet in the future. Let’s show our feelings, and on the third glass of wine, we’ll toast our future, let’s do it!”
"Dry!"
After drinking three large cups in a row, the heads of the house looked drunk!
now.
Xia Tian seemed to be a little drunk, and picked up the fourth glass of wine: "Everyone, there is a saying in Huangzhou, which is that when wine meets a close friend, a thousand cups are too little. The fourth glass of wine...respect the Huangzhou!"
"Dry!"
The heads of the families: "..."
Are there so many common sayings in Huangzhou?
Who the hell could come up with so many common sayings?
"Dry!"
The king of Huangzhou did whatever he said, and they didn't dare to refuse!
Otherwise, this disaster star would really dare to turn against him.
It's so difficult!
The heads of the house drank the fourth cup1
"boom......."
The owner of the house, who was half drunk, fell drunk on the spot and was helped away by the palace maid and eunuch!
At this time.
On the Dragon Throne.
Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes... What does Xiaojiu want to do when he gets these family heads drunk?
Does this kid want to...
