Chapter 277 Dark Fight
"Yang Fan? Yang Fan's sworn brother?" Another part of the crowd came out to chase Yang Fan.
In the woods outside Luoyang City, the ground suddenly loosened and cracked. The soil turned out, and a large pit came out of the depression, and more than a dozen huge pangolins came out of the pit one after another. Circle at the mouth of the cave. Xiao Ran climbed out of the pit unkemptly. After taking a few breaths of fresh air and waming his hand, the pangolin dispersed. Xiao Ran did not dare to stay any longer. He sealed the exit with a huge stone and swept away to Luoyang City.
When being trapped by the golden bell, Xiao Ran searched for a group of pangolin lurking under the ground with his mind and controlled them to open the way. Fortunately, the five factions fought with the men in black and bought enough time. Otherwise, it is still dangerous. As for what happened later, Xiao Ran didn't know anything and didn't want to analyze it. As long as Daoxiafu tells the ins and outs of the matter and flies away with the smoke.
Xiafu, in the secret room.
Chu Ke, dressed in black, looked at Xia Shuangtian with a pale face and said, "Second brother, how can you be so careless? Who is so deeply touched that he can sneak into the house and hurt you without moving his face. Now I'm afraid that the plan has leaked out, and it will be difficult for the emperor to detect it.
Xia Shuangtian said, "All the four seven-star stones that were originally got were robbed. This revenge must be revenged. Well, now the situation at the border gate is tense again, and the generals of the Tang Dynasty are more or less related to my Xia family. It is not easy for the Zheng family and the Wu family to take this opportunity to seize the military power. Take this opportunity to see what they do. If you are in a hurry, you have to do it in advance.
Chu Ke nodded and said, "It's already ten years old. There is a seven-star stone each of the Emei School and the Falling Star Palace. The whereabouts of the basalt stone is still unknown. If you want to get all of them, I'm afraid it will cause turmoil immediately. It will also take some time to integrate the Yangtze River waterway. It is not appropriate to make a square face before everything is ready.
Xia Shuangtian's eyes were cold and said, "The emperor will not give us too much time. He will definitely take this opportunity to weaken the strength of the Xia family with the help of Zheng Wu. The border detectives reported that the Turks had begun to prepare to attack the Tang Dynasty. It can't take too long. There will be a showdown soon." For the conversation between the two, Uncle De stood in Xia Shuangtian without saying a word, and his eyes were deep and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
Everyone in the court knew that the weather was going to change. In a few days, the emperor adopted the suggestions of Zheng and Wu, gradually depriving the Xia family of their military power. Zheng Wu's two families even had the idea of taking it, and the clear-eyed people could see that the emperor's Xia family was dissatisfied with the private possession of the seven-star stone. Both sides are not offended by the practice of removing the grinding and killing the donkey. You only need to shout "Holy Sage" for the emperor's decision.
In the early morning, the old man wore a dragon robe. His eyes sharply swept over the Chinese military officials: "If you have something to do, you have nothing to do to retreat from the court!"
The old man with a lean face stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to do."
"What else do you think about?" Seeing Wu Yintang, the head of the Wu family, come forward, Xia Zhong's heart is about to fight again.
"Weichen wants to impeach the cavalry general Xia Yingyong." As soon as this came out, everyone was shocked. Xia Yingyong has followed Xia Shuangtian for many years and is a right-hand man and right-hand man. Unexpectedly, he was attacked so quickly.
The old man in the dragon robe frowned and said, "Prime Minister, don't slander casually. The heroic general has made countless contributions to this dynasty. You can't listen to one side of the words. You have to investigate it thoroughly."
"I also don't want to damage the reputation of the old general. According to the impeachment letter received by the old minister, it is revealed that he burned, looted, looted, and even instigated his subordinates to kill civilians to take the lead. In order to seek justice for the people of the Tang Dynasty, we have no choice but to come forward. Wu Yintang looked sad.
"This play is really good!" Xia Zhong thought fiercely. Many eyes are looking at themselves, even if they don't come out. Besides, the Xia family can't make the Xia family feel cold.
"General Yingjie is a clean and honest official. It is even more harsh to restrain subordinates. This kind of crime will definitely not be committed. In the battle of Longhuan Mountain, 50,000 soldiers were besieged in the valley by Tubo soldiers. General Yingjie led 5,000 elite soldiers to rush out from the flank and raided the rear of the enemy. He was hit by five arrows, a wound and almost died. Dengzhou suppressed the rebulent party, was attacked by Jianghu killers, was in a coma for seven days, and still has hidden diseases. It will be extremely painful on rainy days. Lijiang River bandits..."
Xia Zhong listed a long list of Xia Yingjie's achievements and stopped knowing that the emperor interrupted. Wu Yintang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he also had some admiration in his heart: "The Xia family is really talented." If Xia Zhong asks Wu Yintang to show real evidence and win the other party's arms. Imagine that even the testimony is ready, how can you not prepare evidence and talk emptyly in the officialdom? Even if it is fake evidence, it is enough to shave off his military power. Xia Zhong happened to avoid this trap and listed Xia Yingjie's merits. It is obvious that the so-called evidence can be faked. These achievements are indeed obvious to all.
Moreover, there is also a high-power general in the court. If even a general like Xia Yingyong can easily frame Wenchen, who dares to fight for the emperor? In other words, those who are officials in the dynasty do not have a handle in the hands of others. Xia Zhong took the lead, and a literary general of the Xia family began to refute and quarreled. He only wanted to turn big things into small things in the end.
"Bum!" The old man slapped on the dragon chair: "Noisy, no different from a shrew."
Xia Zhong, who was unwilling to show weakness, looked at Wu Yintang and returned to his original position. The tiger father has no dog son, and Wu Yintang miscalculated the situation. In the end, it was just some painless punishment and handed over to the six ministries for trial. I think it will drag on until the year of the monkey, and the waves will rise again and again.
Zheng Xuan, the minister of the Ministry of Household, came forward and said, "I have something to do."
"When will I love you?"
"Last year, the Yellow River flooded, and the southeast drought built water conservancy. Prepare for military service today. The treasury budget is insufficient. Once urgently needed, it is difficult to raise a large amount of silver. The land around the south of the Yangtze River is fertile and less affected by disasters. I think taxes should be levied to alleviate the needs of the treasury.
Zheng Xuan is the eldest son of Zheng Yan, the head of the Zheng family, and his status in the Xia family is comparable. At this time, it is difficult, and it also means to compete. Luozhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River. Several states and counties near Los Angeles are also close friends of the Xia family. Although the Zheng family is located in the south of the Yangtze River, they are naturally not afraid. However, Xiajia's industry is very small. In addition to taxation, the income and expenditure have barely remained stable.
There is no doubt that I want to attack the Xia family from the vegetable garden. How can I raise soldiers if I don't have money? Zheng Xuan's trick is that the Zheng family is in the south of the Yangtze River. Presumably, he will take the initiative to send money to the treasury. There is no reason why the emperor is not allowed to play. The Xia family will pay for the money made by the Zheng family, whether it is under the pressure of the emperor.
Wu Yintang smiled at the corners of his mouth. He said in his heart, "With this bad move, the Zheng family is really not a fuel-saving lamp. One thousand damage, eight hundred self-damage. In the end, he also sent the emperor a favor, Xia Zhong. How do you deal with it? In contrast, the Xia family is not rich.
It's not that Xia Zhong doesn't want to speak for the Xia family. First, he stands up now to block the emperor's way of wealth. No emperor will dislike that he has a lot of money. Isn't he looking for death? Second, something happened suddenly, and Xia Zhong really couldn't figure out how to deal with it. For a while, the words were poor. A wise man must have a mistake, not to mention that the other party has been carefully calculated.
"Father, I don't think it's appropriate." Just when the old man wanted to play, Prince Li Yan stood up. A few days ago, the three families had a secret fight, and the prince didn't care. Now that you stand up, do you want to mention the Xia family? No one dares to underestimate the status of the prince.
Li Yan paused and said, "Although Jiangnan is a rich place, fishing is not a long-term solution. Taxation will also make the people in Jiangnan dissatisfied with the imperial court. Although the injured position of Shinong, industry and commerce is at the end, the color they produce accounts for a large proportion. The minister thought that the law should be amended again in a special period, so that while doing business, he should appropriately increase the share of business sailors. It hurts people's benefits. As long as the scope of business is expanded, it will not care about these taxes. What suffering for the people."
In the same words, the identity is different, and the effect is different. Even if it is beneficial, if Xia Zhong speaks out, he will be regarded as a sophistry and unwilling to deal with it for the court. The prince said it as a good policy for the country and the people, and there was a response.
The old man pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, leave this matter to you and retreat!"
"Hang live my emperor..."
