Chapter four hundred and eighty eight: Emperor Chu who is uneasy
Xu Qing said quickly: "I don't blame you for this. It was the prince himself who blocked the door of Qingxue's study to urge the update."
Xiao Ruxue nodded her head and said, "Yeah, yeah, my father is addicted to it."
Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing and asked: "Then what kind of martial arts conference are those Jianghu people going to hold now, disrupting one party's peace and stability? What should we do?"
Xu Qing said: "Then send troops to suppress or disperse them."
Emperor Chu: "You will provide military resources?"
Xu Qing: "..."
Emperor Chu looked at the silent Xu Qing and said, "What? You become mute when it comes to money?"
Xu Qing coughed and cupped his hands and said, "What do you think our Majesty should do?"
Emperor Chu said: "Even if we send troops to suppress it, it can be suppressed for a while, but can it be suppressed for a lifetime?"
Xu Qing asked: "What does your Majesty mean?"
The Emperor of Chu said: "After all, our country is founded on martial arts, and the people's martial aspirations cannot be suppressed by the court. Moreover, wherever there are people, there will naturally be rivers and lakes martial arts. If they cannot be suppressed, they will be killed, so it is better to guide them in time."
Xu Qing asked: "I wonder what the guidance method is?"
Emperor Chu said: "I remember Han Feizi once said: chivalrous people use martial arts to break the law. Even if those martial arts heroes violate the law by practicing martial arts, they come and go without a trace. They only talk about one word of righteousness in everything, and many local officials also
There’s nothing you can do about it.”
"It would be better for the imperial court to send someone to compete for the position of leader of the martial arts alliance. In this way, the imperial court's will can be conveyed to the people in these martial arts circles and guide them to do good."
"From robbing the rich and giving to the poor to punishing rape and eradicating evil, from showing off violence and fighting ruthlessly to acting chivalrously, from using force to break the law to using the government to apprehend key criminals."
What Emperor Chu said is true. Many of the so-called heroes in the Chu Kingdom were actually just doing things like bandits in the green forest.
Although under the banner of robbing the rich and giving to the poor, most of them only rob the rich but do not help the poor. The money is divided among themselves. Where does the money come from to help the poor?
Moreover, many people in the martial arts world only listen to a few words from others and then make subjective judgments about a person's good and evil. They abuse the death penalty and rely solely on blood. They really lack the guidance of correct values.
Regardless of the heroes and heroines in the martial arts world, whose names are all touted, in fact, there are very few truly great heroes in the martial arts world.
Xu Qing said: "Your Majesty is right. Who would be better to send to compete for the position of leader of the martial arts alliance?"
Emperor Chu asked: "Who caused this?"
Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the ceiling of Tai Chi Palace: "Yes, who caused it..."
Emperor Chu slapped the table: "Don't let me start the topic!"
Xu Qing coughed and said, "Your Majesty, you won't let me go, right? My wife is still pregnant, and I have to stay at home to take care of my wife."
Emperor Chu glanced at him: "Wan'er is also pregnant. Does it delay Ye'er from going out with the army?"
Xu Qing said: "You also know my martial arts. This is enough for you to get started. How can you fight those people in the green forest?"
Emperor Chu: "I don't care about this. I have forgiven you enough for not letting the imperial guards arrest you and lock you up for ten or eight years for the trouble you caused. How dare you bargain with me?"
"Now they have gathered together to choose the alliance leader. If the position of the alliance leader is obtained by someone with ulterior motives, it will definitely cause great trouble to our Chu Kingdom's court."
Xu Qing's face showed some physical pain, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That minister..."
Emperor Chu said: "What are you thinking about, asking me to send troops to pay the military expenses? It's useless. The military symbols are not in my hands, and I can't mobilize the troops. Besides, the suppression can't be suppressed for a while. Since this precedent has been set, it will come back sooner or later if we suppress it now.
."
Xu Qing looked at Emperor Chu and spread his hands and said: "If you can't adjust it, then you can't adjust it. Why do you sound so proud?"
Yes, it is truly unique for an emperor to be so proud without military power.
Emperor Chu slapped the table: "Are you going or not? If you don't want to go, let's talk as soon as possible. The prison of the Ministry of Punishment has just been repaired and is now strong. It induces the people to make trouble and incites people's hearts. What is instigated is the large-scale gathering of the entire Central Plains martial arts community. I have to let you go when I go back."
The Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple will carefully study what kind of punishment this should be."
Xu Qing immediately handed over his hands when he heard this: "I will think about it."
Emperor Chu nodded and waved his hand and said: "Well, I will give you two days to think about it carefully. Two days are enough for the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to study. Wei Zhong, remember to say hello to the jail of the Ministry of Punishment and inform the Anding County Houliu in advance.
A better location.”
Xu Qing immediately smiled and said: "I don't think you need to think about it. It's better for me to go back early and take care of my wife when I come back."
Emperor Chu nodded and said with a smile: "I know that Uncle Anding still puts state affairs first. I am optimistic about you, so I will spend the next two days with your wife. I will leave for Liuzhou in two days. Come on, right?"
Now, Wei Zhong, there is no need to say hello to the Ministry of Justice."
Emperor Chu watched Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue walk out of the Tai Chi Palace, then looked at Wei Zhong and said, "General Liu's second son is General Zuo Long Wuwei. I heard that his martial arts are extremely superb."
Wei Zhong bowed and said: "Yes, General Liu has been nurtured by his family since he was a child. He is famous for his martial arts with great openness and majestic momentum. He is the most skilled general among the twelve generals, and he is also extremely proficient in the art of war. Even if
Even the prince is full of praise for it."
Emperor Chu said: "Draw up a decree and order him to fight for the position of leader of the alliance."
Wei Zhong asked doubtfully: "Didn't Your Majesty order the county commissioner of Anding to fight for the position of alliance leader?"
Emperor Chu glanced at Wei Zhong and said, "Can he win with his little skill?"
Wei Zhong said in confusion: "Then your Majesty, this is..."
Emperor Chu's tone was filled with a hint of resentment, and he said: "Do you know when he gets up and what time I get up? Do you know what he does on weekdays and what I do on weekdays? Do you know what time he goes to bed and what time I get up?
Sleep?"
"Among all the civil and military officials, he is the one who lives the most comfortable life every day. Do you think I can feel guilty? If I don't find something for this kid to do, I will still feel unhappy after all!"
When Wei Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. His Majesty said that he felt the same way!
Does Anding County Marquis do anything else besides playing with Princess Yongle at home every day?
Thinking of this, Wei Zhong bowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
National Business Academy
In the courtyard
Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing and said, "Xu Qing, what are you doing at the Guoshang Academy?"
Xu Qing said: "Do you know what your Majesty just said about the martial arts conference held in Liuzhou?"
Xiao Ruxue nodded and said: "Isn't it written in the secret letter just now? Everyone in the martial arts world will go there by then, but does this have anything to do with the Guoshang Academy?"
Xu Qing said: "Do you know how the supply of inns, shops, and even snacks and hospitals will exceed demand at that time? While it is still early, hurry up and send someone to book it now. You will definitely make a lot of money by then!"
