"This is definitely very difficult. The Zhou Imperial Family has ruled the Great Zhou for so long that the orthodox thinking of the Great Zhou has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.”
the adjutant said.
"I don't think so," said Niu Ding.”
"The people hope that the emperor will always treat them well. Look at Emperor Yuan Tai now.”
"In my opinion, if the current situation continues, the ones who resist will probably not be those with ill intentions, but the people of Great Zhou."
The adjutant's expression changed.
He looked around and said with relief,"Old Bull, why are you getting smarter as you live?”
"You thought that other than fighting, you were just a stupid donkey.”
"Go, go, go. You're the stupid donkey. Can't you see that I've been thinking for so long?”
Niu Ding rolled his eyes.
He seemed to be in a daze just now, but he was actually thinking about these things.
"Actually, I found out a long time ago, but I didn't tell you."”
"In my opinion, Old Bull, if the time is right, there might really be a chance for you to become the Emperor.”
However, Niu Ding shook his head and said,"That's not necessarily true."
"Which army do you think is the most powerful among the North Yan Army, the West Liang Army, the South Wind Army, and the East Cloud Army?”
"Of course, it's the Northern Yan Army, who has been fighting against the Northern Barbarians for many years.”
"The soldiers in the Northern Yan Army are indeed very skilled. They are much stronger than our army and are the best of the best.”the adjutant said.
" Yes." Niu Ding nodded and said slowly," So I think that Lu Yu still has a chance to turn around."”
The adjutant frowned and said with some doubt,"Old Bull, what makes you think so?"
He couldn't understand Niu Ding.
In the past, other than leading troops in battle, Niu Ding was very dull and did not have so many thoughts.
"Although the Northern Yan Army has changed their commander and the generals have been secretly changed, the morale of the army remains unchanged.”
"The Lu Clan has ruled the Northern Yan Army for so many years. How could the Northern Yan Army change hands so easily?”
"I'm afraid that the King of Northern Yan only needs to stand in front of the Northern Yan army and give an order to regain his military power.”
"Once the world is in chaos, to a certain extent, as long as Lu Yu has a backup plan, the Northern Yan Army will be able to break into the Imperial City and rescue Lu Yu.”
" At that time, even if the King of Northern Yan wants to stand on his own, the Northern Borderline under his command will be enough for him," Niu Ding said solemnly.”
"If it weren't for the fact that Emperor Yuan Tai had a master by his side, he might have been able to replace the Zhou royal family.”
"After all, it's not unreasonable for Emperor Yuan Tai to be afraid of Lu Yu, the King of Northern Yan.”
At this point, the adjutant sighed.
"These are not things we should be thinking about, at least not now. You should put these thoughts down first.”
"You should have noticed that the few countries in the east have noticed that the situation in my Great Zhou is strange. They are already somewhat restless.”
Niu Ding coldly snorted and said in a deep voice.
"Then let them try. As long as I, Niu Ding, am in the eastern border, not a single enemy soldier will step foot here.”
......
In the Qilin Hall of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Those who had been kneeling in Yangxin Palace Hall for a long time were forcefully driven away.
They could only go to the Qilin Palace on their own accord.
Emperor Yuan Tai was still nowhere to be seen on the throne. The courtiers in the court began to discuss among themselves.
Wen Cifu, who had not spoken for a long time, looked around and suddenly said,"His Majesty hasn't arrived yet. As officials, we should think of a countermeasure.”
"Currently, the people of the Great Zhou are filled with resentment. After being suppressed, their resentment is even deeper.”
"I think we should comfort the people first.”
"The people are the foundation of our Great Zhou. We must first resolve their resentment.”
An official nodded in agreement and said,""Wen Cifu is right."
"In the past few days, there have been a few more riots in various places. There are even villains who took advantage of the chaos to descend the mountain and rob the passing commoners.”
"The nearby officials applied for food and pay to suppress the bandits, but in the end, they only received two taels of silver.”
"I wonder why the Ministry of Revenue is doing this?。”
After the official finished speaking, the official from the Ministry of Revenue lowered his eyes and said,"Without His Majesty's permission."
"How would my Ministry of Revenue dare to touch the national treasury so easily?”
"That two taels of silver was taken out from my own purse!”
When he said this, many people fell silent.
There were too many things to complain about. They really did not know how to complain.
However, there was never a shortage of people who could speak in the imperial court.
However, as soon as the official from the Ministry of Revenue finished speaking, the censor who had always supported Emperor Yuan Tai spoke again.
"There's actually a problem with what you said."
"The commoners are stupid and do not know that our Great Zhou Emperor is wise.”
"They listened to some ignorant rumors, but they did not see the peace and prosperity that the Great Zhou was about to usher in.”
"I thought that we should spread the name of Your Majesty and use tax exemption and other compensation to solve these problems.”
"As for those bandits, they're just a bunch of clowns who want to die.”
"All we need is for the local officials to raise money from the local nobles and celebrities to suppress the bandits, and then the officials of the imperial court will go and supervise.”
"In this way, firstly, it can make the Emperor's glory even greater, and secondly, it can resolve the grievances of the people. It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.”
Hearing this, everyone thought for a moment and felt that what the imperial censor said made sense.
However, such a big matter like exemption from taxes and corvee had to wait for Emperor Yuan Tai's approval in court.
Otherwise, their cabinet would not have the qualifications to pass this resolution.
However, Wen Cifu glanced at the Imperial Censor a few times, and his eyes flashed with an obscure light.
"We'll wait for His Majesty's approval for the exemption from taxes and corvee. We can carry out the raider suppression first," said an official.”
"However, when the various regions raise funds on their own, there will be cases of false edict and corruption.”
"We still have to send someone from the court to supervise in case this matter will cause inconvenience to the lives of the people.”
Hearing this, the Imperial Censor's eyes flashed.
He definitely had his own reasons for making this suggestion.
After the discussion was over, they would decide on the officials to be sent to the various places.
It was such a good opportunity to make money.
Wasn't that his goal?
At this moment, the Central Scattered Physician spoke.
"If that's the case, then I'll be bold enough to say that I'm willing to personally go to the frontlines to supervise the raider extermination.”
Wen Cifu's eyes were calm. He only knew that it was as he had expected.
He sneered in his heart and immediately retorted,"The Imperial Censor is a civilian."
"How can we have the ability to exterminate the bandits?”
"In my opinion, we should send a military officer over to supervise the matter.”
The imperial censor smiled and said,""This is a local matter. How can a military officer do it?”
"Since that's the case, why don't we send a civil and military officer to assist the local officials in raising funds and suppressing the bandits.”
He smiled and didn't mind bringing another military official.
The military officer was burly and focused on the art of war, so he definitely couldn't beat him.
Moreover, he dared to openly oppose Wen Cifu in the court, so he definitely had his own henchmen, and there were naturally many military officials.
General Mingyu stood up and said,""This time, the border is fine, and I happen to have nothing to do. I'm willing to personally go and assist in the suppression of the bandits.”
He was a henchman of the Imperial Censor, and had already discussed this matter in private.
Wen Cifu shook his head with a bitter smile as he looked at the messy imperial court.
Up until now, not a single expert from the Great Zhou Imperial Family had stepped forward.
Even one person could make Emperor Yuan Tai restrain himself.
He walked in the palace in a daze, looking at this familiar world.
Suddenly, he heard a shout from afar,""The Heavenly Prison is an important place.”
He raised his head and didn't expect that he had unknowingly walked into the area of the imperial prison.
Wen Cifu's heart stirred as he walked straight to the imperial prison.
