Gang!
Gu Fengming was familiar with this thing. Whether it was in modern times or ancient times, whether it was in this time and space or another time and space, there seemed to be the existence of gangs.
"If I can unite all the gangs in Beijing, will this gang's power be broken?”
Gu Fengming had a bold idea.
According to Lu Bu, there should be many gangs of various sizes in the capital. The number of people in the city ranged from a few thousand to a few dozen. There were probably tens of thousands of people in the city.
If Gu Fengming could make good use of such a powerful force, wouldn't that mean that Gu Fengming would have tens of thousands more people in the capital?
The most important thing was that Gu Fengming felt that the powerful officials probably did not expect this gang to be so powerful.
Gu Fengming was certain of one thing. These gangs were definitely related to those powerful officials. However, there shouldn't be any direct relationship. In other words, the people under the powerful officials controlled all the gangs in the city, and these gangs were used by these powerful officials to accumulate wealth.
The local ruffians colluded with the government to oppress the people and obtain wealth. Those powerful officials probably never thought that if these gangs were all controlled by others, it would be enough to cause a bloody storm in the capital.
Thinking of this, Gu Fengming's eyes lit up.
Gu Fengming now controlled the Imperial Palace, but he had no way of dealing with the entire capital. The entire capital was still under the control of those powerful officials. If Gu Fengming wanted to touch their cake, it would probably cause a backlash.
Moreover, Gu Fengming did not have the strength to do that. The Jinyiwei and Bai Bing were no match for these powerful officials who had been in power for many years.
Right now, it was these powerful ministers who did not take Gu Fengming seriously. In addition, they restrained Gu Fengming to stabilize the situation. If they wanted to deal with him, Gu Fengming would probably not be able to resist. Therefore, Gu Fengming urgently needed to have his own power in the capital, and this power could permeate the entire capital.
The appearance of this gang had opened the door to a whole new world for Gu Fengming. Gu Fengming could completely rely on his own strength to secretly support the sects and eventually control all the sects in the capital. In that case, wouldn't Gu Fengming have a terrifying power hidden in the dark?
"That's right, that's what we should do!"
Gu Fengming was overjoyed. He had already made up his mind, and his gaze involuntarily turned to Lu Bu.
" Lu Bu is so brave, so he will definitely be under my wing. But now that I don't have military authority, it's obvious that giving Lu Bu to me is useless. Instead of that, why don't I subdue him and arrange for him to be among the people? I'll give him support and let him control all the gangs in the capital. Wouldn't that be beautiful?”
"Humph, the court is getting more and more chaotic. I don't know if the Emperor was muddle-headed due to his illness before he died, but he actually let a nine-year-old child, the King of Qin, be regent. Isn't he playing with the lives of the people? In my opinion, this Great Feng Dynasty doesn't have many days left. It will be destroyed sooner or later.”
The more he spoke, the angrier he got. Lu Bu was actually pointing the spearhead at Gu Longming and Gu Fengming. His words were full of conviction. It was obvious that he felt that Gu Fengming's regent act was ridiculous.
"Have you ever thought that His Majesty was also helpless?”
Hearing this, Gu Fengming raised his head and looked at Lu Bu. He wasn't angry at Lu Bu's criticism of him.
"Helpless? What do you mean?"
Lu Bu frowned and asked Gu Fengming.
"The fall of the Great Feng Dynasty began in the Xuanzong Dynasty. Xuanzong's father, Zhongzong, favored the treacherous concubines and listened to the crafty sycophants, resulting in the outbreak of the peasant uprising. Zhongzong had no choice but to order the various regions to recruit soldiers to resist the rebellions in various regions. This led to the emergence of provincial governors and military governors. After the death of Zhongzong, Xuanzong succeeded to the throne. Xuanzong finally quelled the chaos and stabilized Jiangnan, but the northwest was no longer under the control of the central court.”
"In order to fight against the provincial governors, Xuanzong had no choice but to rely on the power of the aristocratic families to let these people enter the center of the court. Although it was to quench his thirst with poison, he finally suppressed the provincial governors, leaving only the four provincial governors in the northwest.”
"After Xuanzong died, His Majesty succeeded to the throne. He was only 21 years old when he succeeded to the throne. The court had long been controlled by powerful officials. Even his father could not get rid of these powerful ministers, let alone him. In the past eight years, he had also wanted to get rid of these powerful ministers. However, the power of these powerful ministers was intertwined. If he was not careful, he might be consigned to eternal damnation. In order to protect his royal family, as the emperor, he could only be careful and barely maintain this seemingly balanced relationship.”
"He also wanted to make a difference, but the heavens did not wait for him. He died early before he could make any achievements. The Crown Prince is only five years old, the Empress Dowager is ambitious, and treacherous officials are in power in the court. The only person he can rely on is his nine-year-old brother. This is the only person he can trust. What can you do to him?”
Gu Fengming looked at Lu Bu and said calmly. Zhongzong was his grandfather, Xuanzong was his father. The decline of the Great Feng Dynasty started from his grandfather's generation. His father relied on the family clan to stabilize the court, but he led the wolf into the house and suffered a backlash. But if his father did not do that back then, the Great Feng Dynasty would have been destroyed under the iron hooves of the military governors.
"This…"
Lu Bu was stunned by Gu Fengming's words. Looking at Gu Fengming, he didn't know how to answer. It seemed that the royal family was helpless.
"But you can't let a nine-year-old child be regent, right? What can a nine-year-old child understand?”
Lu Bu muttered.
"Don't look down on people. Your daughter looks like she's only nine or ten years old, but I saw her martial arts with my own eyes just now.”
"Didn't she just show a talent that ordinary children can't compare to? Are you sure that His Highness the King of Qin doesn't have this ability?”
Gu Fengming first flattered Lu Qiling before turning to Lu Bu.
"Yes!"
"Little brother, what you said does make some sense!”
As expected, Lu Bu was very satisfied to hear others praise his daughter. When he was happy, it was easier for him to accept other people's words.
"Right? So, you can't judge a book by its cover. Don't underestimate the King of Qin!”
Gu Fengming smiled and praised himself.
"Bang bang bang…"
"Open the door!"
Both parties were chatting and flattering each other. However, at this moment, a knock on the door sounded. The sound was sharp and it was obvious that the person was not friendly.
