Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 275 Chaotang and Jianghu



Chapter 275 Chaotang and Jianghu

There was a booming sound in the sky, and many people in Chang'an City were awakened.

Long drought and no rain, most of the crops in the field have already withered. If the drought continues, I am afraid that there will be no crops this year. I don’t know how many people have to sell their fields and become refugees, and how many people will die of hunger...

The decline in production efficiency is most directly reflected in farmers. When the year is good, they go out to pay taxes and land rent, and there is still a morsel of grain left;

The bones of the dead are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles...

It's definitely not Cao Mengde's idle talk and jokes!

At this time, when the sky was rumbling, I don't know how many people wept with joy, put on their clothes and went out, knelt on the ground and worshiped God, they did not forget these poor people!
When some people are happy, others will be sad. This is the most difficult truth through the ages.

When the common people made the commotion of the common people, Marquis Wu's spirit was tense, fearing that a big incident would be caused by agitation, those family members of the Zhongming Dingding Dingshi, Poetry and Book Heirloom, but I don't know how many frowning brows were furrowed and their hearts were disturbed, secretly swearing at this Thief God, what kind of thunder is it?

For this drought, they have invested too much and hoped too much, and they have embarked on a road that cannot be turned back!
If it is successful, the high wall of the clan will not fall down, and it will be passed down from generation to generation;

If it fails, the thousand-year-old family will dig its own grave, and the incense will be cut off...

How could a slight mistake be tolerated in this gamble where one's wealth and life were betted?

For the glory of the family and the inheritance of the family, they will not care about those low-level civilians. If their starvation can make the emperor's position less stable, these high-ranking people from the family who are rich in poetry and books will not hesitate. Going to add another fire...

***************
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes.

People are rivers and lakes.

Chaotang is another rivers and lakes, intrigues, intrigues and deceit, the conspirator is nothing more than the word profit.Benefits will push you forward, even if you want to retreat, you can't retreat as you like, because interests have already tied your legs and blinded your eyes...

Are people in the rivers and lakes like fallen leaves in the wind and duckweed in the water?

Above the court, tit for tat.

His Majesty Li Er sat leisurely on the throne, looking down at the court with cold eyes.

It was just an ordinary court meeting, but because of the thunderous thunder from Zhongnanshan Fangjun last night, some undercurrents hidden in the dark were swept out of the water.

Is this intended to start early?
His Majesty Li Er was secretly worried, and at the same time secretly hated, these rotten Confucians who are full of benevolence and morality, don't think about how to save the disaster and calm the people at this time, but openly slander him in the court, they should be killed!

Fang Xuanling glared at Fang Xuanling, the minister's servant, pointing at the nose of Duan Daqiu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and said angrily: "You keep talking about the way of heaven, but you don't know the way of heaven for monarchs and ministers? Is it something a minister can do to accuse your majesty of immorality?"

Duan Daqiu, Minister of Civil Affairs, was not as senior as Fang Xuanling in official position, nor as old as Fang Xuanling, but his temper was not small. Facing Fang Xuanling's angry rebuke, Duan Daqiu retorted: "Since ancient times, admonishment has been regarded as righteousness and admonition as straightness, just like the Son of Heaven. If you lose your virtue, a minister should spare no expense of himself and be brave enough to remonstrate. Prime Minister Fang knows that a severe drought is a sign of heaven, but why does he blindly protect His Majesty? Little do he know that it is this kind of perverse remark that can make me brilliant The politics of the Tang Dynasty are fatuous and the foundation is shaken, which is really absurd!"

Fang Xuanling was not good at words, almost died of anger.When Duan Daqiu saw that Fang Xuanling was refuted by him, he was rather complacent, his face was filled with color, and his chin was raised high.

His Majesty Li Er's face was gloomy, and his heart was burning with anger. How dare he say that our politics is fatuous?

But he didn't speak, but looked down at Changsun Wuji and gave him a wink.Unexpectedly, Changsun Wuji was indifferent, as if he didn't see it, just like an old monk in meditation, he didn't move.

His Majesty Li Er was startled, could it be that the Sun family is also connected with those powerful people?
Changsun Wuji is not only the uncle of the country, he is also the head of the Changsun family. When it comes to the interests of the family, the feelings of the dead are really insignificant.

His Majesty Li Er only felt that he was burning with anger. Could it be possible that if you unite with those aristocratic families, the benefits you can gain will exceed what I give you?Back then, I bestowed over a dozen mines in the world to your eldest grandson’s family at one go, and the annual income from the iron mines produced exceeded 10,000+ guan, so it’s still not enough...

Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er suddenly woke up.

Looking at Fang Xuanling whose face was flushed with anger, it turned out that the crux of the matter was here...

It is impossible for Changsun Wuji to betray him, no matter the interests or feelings, only I can give him more!

The silence at this time was just an attempt to make the Fang family fall apart, because they could not bear the pressure under the attack of the powerful family, thus losing their benefits.

The Fang family has things on the surface of the water that Changsun Wuji can appreciate?
The glass has been assigned to the royal family, and his eldest grandson Wuji has ten guts, and he dare not covet it; soap, candles and other things are just petty profits to the eldest grandson's family, and they may not be valued; A magical artifact, but the output is too low...

Ironworks!

The eldest grandson's family is the largest iron merchant in the entire Tang Dynasty. This is the foundation of the family, but because of Fang Jun's new ironmaking method, it was completely destroyed!
It must be so, this old fox is really trying to seize Fang's iron factory!
His Majesty Li Er secretly gritted his teeth, this uncle is too much, when is this, you are still staring at that little money?
His Majesty Li Er turned his eyes away from Changsun Wuji's face with some disappointment. The old and hunchbacked Wei Zheng, the immature Ma Zhou, Tang Jian who was just waiting to become an official, the aging Xiao Yu, the cowardly and clever Chu Suiliang...

On the other side, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde...these killers never take part in court affairs!
None of the famous officials in the court dared to face those aristocratic families directly?
A sense of sadness suddenly rose in His Majesty Li Er's heart.

Once upon a time, I was proud to think that "the heroes of the world are all in my hands", but now I look at it again, old and young, no one can use it when I look at it once?

A huge crisis enveloped His Majesty Li Er, even ten times and a hundred times more dangerous than the crisis he was facing now!
Can't wait any longer, such an old court needs some fresh blood to join in, to stir up this pool of stagnant water!
As he was thinking about it, he heard a scolding in his ear.

"My surname is Duan, please speak politely to Shangguan. Doesn't your father tell you to be polite at home?"

After saying a word, the whole hall is silent.

What do you mean by this... Do you think this is a vegetable market?

Which mallet is this?
The big guy looked for the prestige, took a look, and was very happy, it really is a stick!

Standing behind Tang Jian, Fang Xuanling was squinting at Duan Daqiu, intending to rush forward to fight if there was any disagreement!
Well, I scolded my father, and my son quit, so who is to blame?

The tense, dignified and tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

Duan Daqiu's face turned red, and he said angrily: "What a certain person said is the most reasonable in the world, brilliant and righteous, naturally upright and harsh, how can there be such rudeness?"

The Fang family scolded, "Fart!"

Duan Daqiu was furious and said loudly, "How dare you insult me, my son?"

The Fang family laughed and said: "Why did you ever insult you? Eating and farting is something everyone has to do. Naturally, it is also the law of the world. Of course it is just right to say it. How can you say it is rude?"

"puff"

Someone burst out laughing on the spot...

Yuchi Jingde laughed loudly: "You boy, you are really a rascal, it's so funny..."

The Fang family said with a smile: "If you want to laugh, you can smile more. Smile, ten years less..."

This time it was not only Yuchi Jingde, but also the row of old killers who were wearing helmets and armour, one or two were panting from laughter, tears were streaming down, and the court hall was in chaos.

Changsun Wuji glanced at Fang Jun, and sighed secretly in his heart, this kid, the timing of making trouble is quite accurate...

His Majesty Li Er also gave him an appreciative look, this kid was still stunned as always, but this time he was stunned well!
Seeing that the dignified atmosphere in the court hall was completely lost, some people quit!

Taichang Shaoqing Zheng Boling held a white jade wat board, walked lightly into the hall, bowed and saluted meticulously.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to issue an order to sin against yourself to save the common people!"

The old man's snow-white eyebrows drooped at the corners of his eyes, and his well-maintained face was expressionless and calm.

His voice was not loud, but full of energy, and it was exceptionally clear in the noisy court hall.

The hall was silent again, and everyone looked at Taichang Shaoqing Zheng Boling in disbelief.

His Majesty Li Er's face flushed instantly, and his eyes shot out a cold and fierce light!

Is it because I have dragged down the common people in the world?
