Chapter 901 friendly Bumblebee
Goryeo, royal palace.
This was the third day after the death of King Li Jue. Under the swaying candlelight, the entire palace was filled with white white moist colors. The dark night color was shining with the atmosphere, which was terrifying and depressing.
Li Jing, who has been established as the successor, was watching for his father at this time, and his wives, concubines, and children were still kneeling around him.
The children were all tired and fell asleep, but they couldn't really sleep, so they could only snuggle in their mothers' arms.
Even though the women were exhausted, they didn't want to be caught by others. They were rude and sobbing hard.
Li Jing was also tired at this time. He hadn't eaten or drunk much these days, and had lost at least five or six kilograms. His eyes were blank and he was dazed at the huge black coffin.
In fact, although Li Wu was slightly suspected of sudden death, he died basically normally.
He was nearly 60 years old and had a lot of ups and downs in his life. Dingmao was in chaos and Bingzi was in chaos. This directly shakes the foundation of Goryeo and determines the reign of Goryeo. The two major chaos that determined the reign of Goryeo occurred during his term of office.
Including the largest coup in Goryeo history, "Inzu Anyway", he was also a witness and was promoted to the throne because of this.
His life may not be considered brilliant, but it can definitely be called magnificent.
As early as the beginning of the year when Xu Changqing met him, his health was actually very bad, and it is normal for problems now.
When he just received the news of his father's death, Li Jing was actually quite happy. After all, he finally got rid of his father's shadow and could control this dynasty according to his wishes.
But after a day or two of joy, all kinds of real pressures came to his face. Only then did he understand that this family was not easy to be.
In particular, he is now facing a very critical problem.
——Are you accepting the canonization of the Qing emperor or the enthronement of the Ming emperor?
These two choices seem to be a step difference, but in fact they are completely different.
It will directly determine the future destiny and direction of Goryeo.
While thinking about it, an eunuch hurriedly came over to report: "King, the envoys of the Qing Dynasty are coming to see you..."
Li Jing's heart immediately became tight.
After a moment, he replied in a hunched manner: "I understand, I'll see you right away."
Soon, Li Jing came to the outer hall. A real man in his early thirties and arrogant face was already sitting upright on the first seat of the guest seat.
Although he was a guest at this time, he showed his master's temperament. Even if Li Jing came in, he did not get up.
Moreover, there was no trace of white on his body, and the smell of alcohol on his body was so scented that he did not have the minimum respect for the Goryeo royal family.
Li Jing's eyelids couldn't stop twitching, but he still had to smile on his face and said, "Xiao Wang has met the envoy."
Because the fat man in front of him was a royal family of the Qing Dynasty, the grandson of Lao Nu Nurhaci, and the nephew of the Regent Dorgon, named Bamburshan, from Lao Nu's sixth son, the Duke of Fuguo, was a serious yellow belt, and was quite respected.
Seeing Li Jing coming, Bamburshan said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty, how have you been thinking about these days? When are you going to accept the enthronement of my Qing Dynasty? Haha, if it is too late, I will not be able to explain to the above. By then, it will not be possible for the king to solve the problem by 100,000 taels."
"this……"
Li Jing showed embarrassment and bitterness on his face, but he couldn't stop cursing in his heart, hoping to peel the fat man up and suck it up again.
Yesterday, his confidant conveyed this meaning to him, Bangpurshan, and asked him to pay 100,000 taels of silver, and the Qing Dynasty would enthrone him as soon as possible to ensure his orthodoxy.
Originally, he thought it was a joke, but how could he have thought that Bamburshan had come to him personally...
Before his father died, he left a will, and he had already been legally determined to be the successor. How could he need to be enthroned by the Qing Dynasty to protect him?
Prove his orthodoxy?
If he is really enthroned by the Qing Dynasty, his orthodox will become unorthodox!
At this time, because of the previous transactions with Xu Changqing to sell Jeju Island and other places, he couldn't afford the 100,000 taels of silver. The key is that Bamburshan's attitude towards him was clearly about to release his blood, which made him even more disgusting than eating a fly.
But he did not dare to offend Bangpurshan's yellow belt at this time, so he could only cry and said, "Entertainment, no, it's not that Xiao Wang doesn't want to enthrone, but it's just that Xiao Wang has not officially ascended the throne, and his father's body is not cold. Xiao Wang, he really can't afford so much money..."
"You can't even get a hundred thousand taels?"
Bamburshan's face immediately changed, and he locked on Li Jing like a gloomy wild boar.
Li Xiu lowered his head with a bitter face, and was too lazy to explain.
Now, the total amount of less than 100,000 taels of silver in their treasury account was less than 100,000 taels of silver, and he still didn't believe it. Buershan dared to take advantage of the world and swallowed up all the money for the funeral.
Bamburshan originally wanted to continue oppressing Li Jing, but seeing that Li Jing was about to die, he hurriedly took back the harsh words that had come to his mouth.
Speaking of which, it is not entirely because Bamburshan is so stupid, because he has just been in Goryeo for a month and is not too experiencing the situation in Goryeo.
Here, we need to briefly talk about the system of the Qing Dynasty for the royal family.
Unlike the Ming Dynasty who treated the royal family as pigs, the Qing Dynasty still valued the ability of the royal family and allowed them to lead troops to serve. After all, there were too few people and they had to use their blood to consolidate their rule, but the families of these royal families could not be taken out of Beijing.
Although Bamburshan is a yellow belt and is the direct bloodline of the old slave, his father Tabai died early, and none of their brothers have any power.
Bamburshan has been lying around for seven or eight years, but has not made any personal appearance. Some time ago, he got the news that the envoys in the Qing Dynasty in Goryeo were in a different state of health and wanted to go back to recuperate. He borrowed a lot of money from several brothers, ran through Jiergalang's route, and found this job.
Think about it, he spent more than 30,000 taels of silver just by running, and owed a lot of debts. After finally coming to Goryeo, how could he not scrape three feet of land?
Although Bamber is good at being fat and big-eared, he is like a brainless nouveau riche, he is very proficient in power and conspiracy.
In history, when Obai wanted to make Xiaomazi's rebellion, Bamburshan was his number one strategist and dog-headed military advisor.
Unfortunately, it failed in the end, if it didn't...
Seeing Li Jing's sad look, Bamber's drinking spirit also dissipated a lot. He understood that he was a little too anxious, so he hurriedly got up and came to Li Jing's side, changed into a kind smile and said:
"Your Majesty, look, what's the mess? Actually, I don't have to do anything, but it's really for your good things. You think that although you have the will of the previous king, many things are not very safe. But you can rest assured that whether it is the funeral of the previous king or your ascension to the throne, I, Bamburshan, will serve you as a slaughter!"
Seeing that Bamburshan couldn't sing the black face and turned to sing the white face again, Li Jing felt disgusted.
This is how people are.
If the first impression is bad, it is definitely not a temporary or local effect.
But Li Jing still has to follow Banbuer Shanxu and betray the snake, so he is so disgusting.
Seeing that Li Jing was becoming more and more respectful, Bamburshan thought he was frightened and smiled and said, "Mr. King, since Goryeo has no money now, we must not be too abrupt. In this way, I heard that there are many people in the court who disrespects you, so you can leave this matter to me. At most, I will give you a proper explanation, how about it?"
"this……"
Li Xiu didn't expect that Bamburshan would have another plan, and this one hit directly hit Goryeo's heart.
Even if he uses his butt, he can understand that if he agrees to Bamburshan and Gao Li
What will the court become?
It must be flying sand and stones, and people are living in poverty.
He could only grit his teeth and said, "Entertainment, this is not necessary, right? Although the treasury is not abundant at this time, Xiao Wang and Xiao Wang have some private money in the past few years. Why not, Xiao Wang will raise 30,000 taels for the adults first, and wait for Xiao Wang to take a little slower, and then give the rest for the adults..."
On one side is the abyss and on the other side is the bottomless pit. Li Jing was struggling for a moment and could only choose the bottomless pit first. Even if he was drinking poison to quench his thirst, he would at least get over the matter first.
"Well..."
Bambershan's eyes were dripping.
The reason why he was so anxious to make money and forced Li Jing to death was mainly because he had nearly 10,000 taels of silver in the seal, that is, usury.
If Li Jing was willing to pay 30,000 taels at this time, it would have solved his urgent problem and fill the big hole first.
As long as he fills this big hole, he won’t be so anxious and looks so ugly afterwards.
After thinking about it, it was difficult for a while. Bamburshan agreed, but he asked Li Jing to collect all the money within three days.
...
"I @#¥%!!"
After seeing Bamburshan off, Li Xiu couldn't stop and whispered.
Why do they say they are barbarians? They are like beasts!
Unfortunately, even with Xu Changqing's support, Goryeo was still too weak and could not take the step of resistance.
This made Li Jing feel exhausted.
It is too difficult for a person to live, too difficult.
I was depressed for a while and was about to go back and continue to guard the spirits when suddenly a confidant came to report: "King, there are envoys from Haicheng who want to see you..."
"Um?"
Li Jing asked cleverly for a moment, "Where are the people?"
My confidant hurriedly told him the place.
Li Jing thought for a while, grabbed the confidant and whispered a few times, and quickly ran towards the side hall on one side.
Soon, Li Jing met the envoy of the Model Army, Xu Zhong.
Xu Zhong rushed over overnight, his face full of dust, but his spirit was very good, and he smiled and said, "I have met the king."
A gift is deep to the end.
Compared with the arrogant Bamburshan, Li Jing felt much more comfortable all of a sudden. This is a civilized society.
After a few greetings, Xu Zhong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I heard you are in some trouble?"
“…”
Li Jing was clever, but he realized in a flash that how could Xu Changqing not pay attention to them at this time?
After thinking about it, he informed Xu Zhong about the matter.
Xu Zhong actually learned about this two hours ago, and the Model Jun is not low in intelligence work for Goryeo.
After thinking about it, he frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you are like drinking poison to quench your thirst. This is not a long-term way after all."
Li Jing smiled bitterly: "If this is not the case, what can I do? It's impossible, let that fat man directly intervene in the court? That's a catastrophe!"
Xu Zhong said: "Your Majesty, I am not intimidated by the fact that Bei Zhi came here this time because I was entrusted by my marquis. I have a secret matter to discuss with you. The marquis has granted great autonomy to Bei Zhi."
"oh?"
Li Jing suddenly became cautious and did not dare to express his opinion easily.
Even though Xu Zhong was quite frank about him, he was not really in power at this time, and his butt was not stable yet, and he didn't dare to take risks with his own wealth and life.
But the comparison of attitudes between the Ming and Qing dynasties was really too clear.
