A night of cleaning.
However, it also caused the entire Imperial City to fall into chaos.
However…
Xia Ji had expected this.
He had already sent Cao Changqing to persuade Yu Qian.
Right now, Yu Qian was mobilizing his troops to pacify the people.
It did not cause too much chaos.
However, Yu Qian's intervention.
However, it made the officials in the Imperial City tremble even more.
They all felt that something was amiss.
In just one night, the entire Imperial City had been turned upside down.
All the officials felt a sharp sword hanging over their heads.
If he was not careful, his head would fall to the ground.
However, the commoners and aristocratic families had a different feeling.
Aristocratic families usually relied on the officials of the imperial court and could be said to be helping a tiger.
However, as the forces behind him were dug out one by one, they were also extremely flustered.
Other than those families that were determined and unyielding, most of them had already moved out of the Imperial City.
Some who were in contact with the seven vassal kings even defected overnight.
Regarding this.
Xia Ji did not stop him.
These families that were lost were not talents, but parasites of Great Xia.
If not for them, there would not be so many corrupt officials in Great Xia.
Now that its master had been captured, the dog naturally had to run away.
He expected them to be loyal and protect their master?
Even so, he had to have the strength.
With the 3,000 factory guards mobilized, there was simply no armed force to contend with them.
Even if there were, they were immediately defeated after the human cat took out the imperial edict.
As for the people.
It was because of this matter that he was extremely grateful to the newly ascended human emperor.
Usually, these officials colluded with the aristocratic families.
He had brought them many grievances, and they could not see the existence of fairness at all.
However, things were different now.
These officials were all arrested, and even the Minister of Justice was imprisoned.
It was undoubtedly sending a signal to everyone.
The new emperor was not simple. Great Xia was about to change!
In the palace.
At this moment, they were all busy.
The human cat asked Xia Ji for a palace specifically for interrogation.
As for the news that Li Si had been captured, Xia Ji was shocked.
Xia Ji smiled faintly and ignored him.
There were six ministers in the six departments, so one or two less was not a big deal.
Moreover, it could also disintegrate the current situation of the six ministers dominating the court.
By the next morning, the amount of money they had plundered from the corrupt officials was already an astronomical figure.
Wu Zhao found it unbelievable.
However, there was no doubt that this money had solved the problem of disaster relief.
just
The problem of the national treasury being empty had not been solved.
This was just a temporary relief.
If he wanted to completely solve the problem of the national treasury, he had to let Great Xia's economy operate.
However, this was not something that could be done overnight.
.........
In the main hall of the Palace of Summer.
Xia Ji flipped through the new memorials, occasionally making notes on them.
Behind him, Wu Zhao was gently massaging Xia Ji's shoulders.
"Your Majesty, you've been watching for an entire night.”Wu Zhao said.
"No worries." Xia Ji said calmly.
He had already obtained a lot of information from the memorials he had read through the entire night.
He was even more confident about the following arrangements.
Now that these corrupt officials had been dealt with, the next step was to focus on disaster relief.
Once this was done, Xia Ji would naturally gain a lot of reputation.
Under such circumstances, the seven vassal kings would not do anything too excessive.
At that time, Xia Ji would be able to weaken them.
From there, they would be firmly controlled.
Just as Xia Ji was lost in his thoughts, a guard came to report.
"Your Majesty, Lady Yan requests an audience."
"Lady Yan?" Xia Ji was stunned. He couldn't understand why Consort Yan would come at this time.
"Do you want me to leave?" Wu Zhao said lightly, as if he was jealous.
Seeing Wu Zhao like this, Xia Ji chuckled.
He smiled." What's there to hide? Didn't you guys meet each other honestly that night?"”
Wu Zhao blushed at the mention of this.
She still hoped that such a frank meeting would not happen again.
"Summon him." Xia Ji instructed the attendant.
"Yes." The attendant nodded.
He slowly retreated.
Very quickly.
Lady Yan walked into the hall.
Today, she was wearing a black gold dress with exquisite embroidery.
It vividly displayed her tall figure.
Her beautiful black hair was tied up by a hairpin, simple yet elegant.
His appearance was like a jade carving with the highest skill, without any flaws.
It had to be said.
Although the seven vassal kings had the intention to rebel, the concubines they sent were all beautiful and beautiful.
This was something that needed to be praised.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Lady Yan bowed.
"Yes." Xia Ji nodded." What's the matter?"”
He waved at Lady Yan.
Concubine Yan naturally understood what Xia Ji meant. She walked to the other side of Xia Ji and sat down.
"I've heard that the treasury is empty. I've come today to help Your Majesty."”
Concubine Yan was still a little scared after that night.
However, Xia Ji's domineering attitude had undoubtedly caused ripples in her heart.
Every time she thought back to that night, Lady Yan still had some lingering memories.
"Oh? You're so thoughtful." Xia Ji smiled faintly.
The commotion last night was too big, and these concubines finally couldn't sit still anymore?
Xia Ji knew exactly what they were up to.
It was nothing more than getting close to him and wanting to steal the Imperial Jade Seal.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have snuck onto the roof of the Xia Palace on the night of the Empress Dowager's death.
Although they were husband and wife now, they still trusted each other.
He could not do it for the time being.
"Do you have any ideas?" Xia Ji asked calmly.
Concubine Yan took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and said,""This is what I've accumulated. Although it's not much, it can solve an urgent need.”
Yesterday, after the concubines woke up, they wondered if Xia Ji would need their help because the treasury was empty.
However, Lady Yan was one step ahead of everyone and came straight to her.
Now, the position of empress had been taken by Wu Zhao.
If she didn't take the initiative, she would probably be left out in the cold.
At that time, not to mention removing the Heirloom Seal, life in this deep palace would be very difficult.
Xia Ji's actions last night had already shown that he was not the useless Emperor that the rumors said he was.
Instead, he had an extremely deep shrewdness.
However, Xia Ji didn't even look at the notes.
Instead, he reached out and pulled Lady Yan into his arms, saying lightly,""I heard that the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, has just taken over the government. He is not very old, and his government is controlled by his second father, Lu Buwei.”
"It is said that Lu Buwei was a top merchant in the world before he entered the Imperial Court. He controlled the largest trading firm in the world.”
"I have an opinion about this merchant!”
If he wanted to make Great Xia's economy flow, Xia Ji needed a business talent.
Scholars, farmers, merchants, and merchants. Now that Cao Changqing was a scholar, there was no need to worry.
However, he had yet to find anyone to manage the others.
If he could subdue Lu Buwei, he could solve the problem of the national treasury being empty.
However…
Hearing this, Lady Yan was stunned.
She didn't expect Xia Ji to be so familiar with the situation in the State of Qin.
This was not something that could be done just by being powerful.
If he wanted to know this, he must have an intelligence organization that knew the world!
But how was this possible?
With the current situation in Grand Xia, even Xia Ruyuan, the Human Emperor from hundreds of years ago, was in a terrible state.
How could Xia Ji know the world despite being in the imperial court?
For a moment, Lady Yan didn't know how to answer.
