#538: Destroy And Shine!
“How about Shuangli Palace?”
As soon as the empress dowager said this, Ming Shuiyun subconsciously observed the reactions of others. Ming Dailan and the others were almost relieved, while Ming Shuangli’s fingers holding the crazy mask clenched slightly, showing no sorrow or joy.
“From beginning to end, Shuangli Palace is a candidate that both the royal family and the court appreciate.” The Empress Dowager said softly, “Even two years ago, after Emperor Xianzong was assassinated and died, Shuangli Palace was ranked among the top five candidates for the Supreme Court. candidate.”
Ming Shuangli obviously didn’t know this secret. She looked up at the Empress Dowager, her mouth twitching slightly – even if she was in a bad mood, she couldn’t help but feel happy when she heard the elders praise her so much, she was very understanding.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why she is valued by the royal family and court.
“It’s just because Shuangli Palace was born as a side branch and is also a female palace, which is far inferior to others in terms of ranking, so we did not recommend her as a supreme candidate. But fortunately, coupled with the protection of the Imperial Court, Shuangli The palace avoided the ‘Royal Chaos Night’ a year ago.” The Empress Dowager said, “For now, Shuangli Palace is our best choice.”
“Can you tell me why you are so optimistic about her?” Cha Shiyin leaned against the chair and glanced at Cha Huan: “I feel that the principal of Cha, who has been deeply harmed by the Shuangli Palace, doesn’t seem to agree with your choice.”
Cha Huan glanced at Ming Shuangli, who immediately stood up obediently and pretended to be a lady. Ling Jiangli clasped his fists and said, “The young man of Shuangli Palace is wise and diligent and eager to learn. He has both the world and the country and the people in his mind.
“Ling Shoufu thinks that Shuangli Palace is a careerist.” Cha Shiyin is noncommittal: “What do you think, Principal Cha?”
Cha Huan snorted coldly: “She is rebellious and wanton but loyal to Huiyao, arrogant but brave in her righteousness, not abiding by rules but self-restrained and rude, not knowledgeable but resourceful, being a student is far from enough, being an emperor… Barely.”
“I didn’t expect that you, Principal Cha, would give a student an evaluation of loyalty, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom… Just your remarks are enough to make the world gladly accept Shuangli Palace’s enthronement.” Cha Shiyin looked Xiang Ning Yulian: “What’s your evaluation, Empress Dowager?”
The Queen Mother was silent for a moment: “She is a good child who will be sad because others are sad and happy because others are happy.”
This time it was Cha Shiyin’s turn to be silent. He gently stroked the holy sword Huiyao on the table, as if recalling a distant phantom.
“Of course, the final choice still depends on the wishes of the palace masters and the choice of the sword-wielding line.” The empress dowager said: “The moment the sword-seeking competition was held, the royal family had already handed over the supreme choice. Give the sword-wielding line of judgment.”
“Yes.” Cha Shiyin flicked the holy sword Huiyao lightly: “Then let go of the choice of the throne first, and move on to more important issues… How are you going to convince me?”
Everyone was slightly startled, but Cha Shiyin noticed their expressions and sneered: “Why, don’t you think that if you come and beg me, I will agree with you—although I don’t know about you How is the record in the royal house, but since you can find it, it means that you know that I have a way to cancel the holy sword hanging in the air.”
“”At a time when the world is in dire straits, you can find a line of sword-wielding and please shine. If it is not completely impossible, if it is not completely irreversible, don’t think about it, remember, remember.” The Queen Mother repeated it again. : “This is a secret mantra circulating in the royal family. Although it is not written in detail, we also know that the price of canceling the holy sword is definitely not small. The sword is in the same vein but there is an order, and the royal court is ordered to do it! “
Cha Shiyin said calmly: “The price is my life.”
The crowd did not express consternation, and it was obvious that they had already anticipated it. If the holy sword could easily cancel the hanging, there would not be many chaos in the world where the holy sword was hanging in the air several times in history.
In the past, Yanjing was basically able to hold steady for 20 years until the end of the vacancy. And this time not only the two major throats were broken, but even the Fifth Army Battalion was greatly reduced due to the demonic disaster, and it was completely unable to resist the invasion of the outer area, but there was no “master king” in the outer area. Throughout the past two thousand years, the current Yanjing may not be the most critical, but it is definitely the most embarrassing.
“Please also hold the sword and serve the world.” Everyone bowed and begged.
“The nine districts in the world, the first district was occupied by the Backlight Organization, the first district launched a rebellion with a clear-cut banner, and the fourth district warlords split their powers and rebelled against the imperial court. Now you are still under your control, only the Yanjing, Kinki and Xiamu districts are left, and there are others. The Leiyin area is not obedient and does not make trouble.” Cha Shiyin said leisurely: “Huiyao only accounts for the third, what qualifications do you have to say that you are ‘the world’?”
“The destiny of destiny is in the end, and it is in the royal family.” Ling Jiangli said: “If it weren’t for the conspiracy of the barbarians, how could Yanjing be in such a desperate situation? If there is no disaster of the demon change, the sword and the line can peacefully elect a new one. The emperor ascends the throne. The new emperor, with the help of the Zhengying Dynasty, will naturally be able to regain the people’s hearts, govern and love the people, suppress disobedient ministers, annihilate the chaotic party, and conquer the mountains and rivers. The change in Yanjing is not a crime of war!”
“But it’s the court’s crime, the royal family’s crime!” Cha Shiyin said sharply: “If the imperial court hadn’t acted backwards, how could four out of the nine districts be rebellious and two districts rebel? If it weren’t for the flaws in the imperial court, the nation would be saved. Could it be possible to take advantage of the loopholes and spend more than ten years to lay out this demonic conspiracy? If the court hadn’t lost the people’s hearts, how could it be today’s disaster!”
“The disaster of demon change, just tear off your fig leaf, and let the whole world know that the imperial court is weak and incompetent! It is also the last straw that crushes Huiyao, let the whole world know that Huiyao is already a thousand years old. There is no cure for it!”
“With your level of governance, with the situation you created, with a court like your civil war, you are embarrassed to beg the sword-wielding line to help you? You are even hoping that I will take the initiative to sacrifice Please invite Hui Yao yourself? Can you stay away from those children, I am afraid that when the thunder strikes you shameless adults, they will be implicated!”
“Also ask me to make plans for the world… I saw a very interesting word in the newspaper – ‘fast forward’. I want to fast forward this situation now, I can’t wait to see the troops from other areas enter Yanjing immediately , destroy this trash court, and let Hui Yao be reborn from the destruction!”
“Destroying you is the real plan for the world! If I help you continue to maintain the existence of this stupid court, it will prolong the suffering of the common people for dozens or hundreds of years!”
Cha Shiyin scolded mercilessly, and the words were sonorous and powerful, and the words were loud and clear. The voice almost penetrated the curator’s room, and everyone outside heard a commotion. The faces of several cabinet ministers also changed greatly, but Ling Jiangli signaled them to be quiet.
When Cha Shiyin stopped talking, Ling Jiangli said slowly: “Have you finished venting? Have you been scolding comfortably? Can you allow me to explain a thing or two?”
“Anything you can do, please.”
“The poison of brilliance lies in the aristocratic family, in the tyranny, in the aristocracy, in the annexation of land, in the struggle of the imperial court, and in the disparity between the rich and the poor!” Ling Jiangli said: “If it is not impossible to live, how can anyone want to fight against it? The imperial court? But in every peaceful and prosperous age, there must be a surge in population, and there is only so much food output. Once the population exceeds a certain value, some people will not be able to eat enough. As long as there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, a large number of hungry people will inevitably be created. If you survive, you will plunder food, destroy production, and further reduce food output, while the number of hungry people will increase, and finally the world will be in chaos!”
“Rao is that Huiyao has used the cultivated land to the fullest, but every two hundred years, there must be chaos, and then there will be great governance! It has been two hundred and eighteen years since Emperor Shenzong revived Huiyao.”
“Why did Emperor Xianzong continue to develop the relocation of people from the Tianji District? Because the Tianji District is the only outer area where Huiyao can develop more arable land. If he can fully master the Tianji District, he will move the migrants from the outer areas into the Tianji District to cultivate official fields. , maybe it will be able to continue the prosperity for decades!”
“The imperial court has implemented good governance for years to benefit the whole world, but what’s the point of the government’s decree not being issued in Kinki? Noble families control the officialdom, and in the rich and powerful fish and meat villages, if good governance sinks to the grassroots villages and towns, they will be executed by officials as bad governance. The low interest rate of goodwill Young crops loans were apportioned into usury loans, which led to the ruin of ordinary people’s homes; the imperial examinations were held every four years, and the teachers and students became cronies and flooded the government and the opposition.”
“This is the poison of the state, the poison of prosperity, and the poison of time.” Ling Jiangli sighed: “The surge in population and the merger of land have created a huge disparity between the rich and the poor.
“It’s like building a building. At the beginning of the prosperous era, the floor was low. As long as the piles were piled and the building materials were prepared, a stable building could be built; but at the beginning of the troubled world, the building was built to a height of 100 meters, and the ground piles had already been built. It is overwhelmed, but the high-rise buildings are still rising. Once it encounters the influence of natural and man-made disasters, this seemingly majestic and towering high-rise building will collapse because it can’t bear its own weight.”
“The royal family has done its best, and the imperial court has done its best. But some things are not man-made, but God’s will.”
“The idea of building a building is very interesting.” Cha Shiyin smiled slightly: “So, it turns out that the princes of the Manchu Dynasty are all loyal ministers who do their best to maintain the overall situation?”
Ling Jiangli was silent for a moment: “I don’t dare to do it, please ask the swordsman for guidance.”
“I’m too lazy to give pointers to you, Principal Cha, you can do it for you.” Cha Shiyin said calmly: “The disdain on your face is beyond words, I feel that you have been waiting for this opportunity to scold them for a long time… …you’re welcome, I’ll treat you.”
“Then I’ll be more respectful than obedient.” Cha Huan looked at Ling Jiangli: “Did you just say, old man, that in the tyrannical fish and meat village, land mergers are serious, the people lose their land, and it is difficult for the court’s decrees to reach the grassroots?”
“Yes.”
“Then why don’t you kill all the tyrannical landlords, return their fields to official land, and hire common people as tenant farmers?”
“This is exactly the task and achievement of the county governor and the consul.”
“What’s the use of killing one or two small landlords? What about those powerful and powerful families who have people in the court? What about those noble families with purple robes? It’s the big head of land annexation, wouldn’t they have land and food after killing them all?”
“…”
“Isn’t that the reason for the serious party disputes in your court if the government orders are not in Kinki? The court is divided into two parties, the Regiment and the Regiment. The policy of your order to leave will be delayed by the people of Helan; the task of Helan, you Those who will leave will also refuse to execute. Why don’t you kill those who oppose you and rectify the court?”
“…”
“There are many officials in the imperial court who protect each other. Isn’t it because you have hired too many fellow villagers? Why don’t you reduce the adoption rate of Yanjing operatives and let more people from other areas work in Beijing. Especially people from Jinhui and Youyun , Canglan people, Tiantian people, they are unfamiliar in Yanjing, and even if they become cronies, they will have communication barriers due to accent problems… Speaking of which, I remember that your Ling Jiangli’s niece seems to be a pure blue operator, you two It made the party’s power even bigger.”
“…”
“According to what I said, you should kill half of you and the two parties. Even if you don’t kill you, you will have to be fired and go back to farming. As beautiful and lovely as your niece, she must be very good at farming.”
“Alas.” Ling Jiangli finally couldn’t help speaking: “If you govern according to Cha Huan, even if there is no demon disaster, the troops from other areas will definitely be able to invade the city. The court is not a jungle, and killing can’t solve anything. The question is, even if you kill a minister, won’t the person who replaces it be corrupt, party, or pervert the law?”
“Government is not a war. Even if the county governor exterminates an intertwined aristocratic family, shouldn’t the extra land resources be managed by the county governor? The governor’s office is not managed by officials, as long as people are in charge. , there are bound to be loopholes that can be drilled, as long as they make big strokes, these official fields will flow into the hands of other wealthy families sooner or later, and the county governor cannot go to the fields every day to see, will he still be deceived by the officials?”
“However, what is the result of the harsh killing? The people below join forces to decorate the peaceful and prosperous world, and never let the superiors know the slightest truth. The result of mistakes is death, then they will never let the superiors know that they made mistakes. “
“If an excellent system is a cure for the root cause, and a good policy is a cure for the symptoms, then Cha Huan, you, can’t even be regarded as a cure for the symptoms, at most it can be regarded as cutting your toes to avoid sandworms – in order to avoid small harm, but to yourself cause more damage.”
“Cha Huan, you are an excellent teacher, but you must be a failed politician – politics is compromise. Killing is a very useful tool, but just because it is easy to use, you must not use it unless you have to, because People make mistakes, and politics needs to give people the opportunity to correct their mistakes.”
Cha Huan sneered: “You seem to be very good, so why don’t you, the politician Ling Jiangli, let the outside army compromise and give up the attack on Yanjing obediently?”
“It’s easy to blame others for mistakes, but a warrior with many wounds is still a warrior, and a perfect fly is a fly.”
“Then you mean you’re a warrior? Come on, let’s go out for a bit.”
“I didn’t say I was a fighter~IndoMTL.com~ so you meant to say I was a fly?”
“…”
The Empress Dowager raised her right hand, and Cha Huan and Ling Jiangli closed their mouths immediately. She looked at Cha Shiyin with a sneering smile at the corner of her mouth and bowed deeply: “The royal family is incompetent.”
Ling Jiangli did not hesitate, and bowed with the truth of several cabinet ministers: “The court is incompetent.”
The Empress Dowager said: “The situation of Huiyao has been corrupted to this point, and the royal family and the court have an inescapable responsibility. No matter how difficult the reality is, the Ming Dynasty court, which bears the expectations of the people and controls the life and death of the people, not only failed to let the people live a happy life. A healthy life has forced them to make troubles, which can only prove that the royal family is incompetent and the court is incompetent.”
“However innocent the people of Yanjing are, the ancient capital of thousands of years should not be swept away by military disasters; and the royal family is the banner of brilliance, and once the inheritance of the ages is destroyed, it will be unimaginable. subjugated.”
“Aijia… I know this is despicable, shameless, and shameless.” The empress dowager’s voice was full of apology: “But I still want to beg for the sword, please bring out the holy sword and save it. The people are in fire and water.”
