Chapter 204: On the World of Great Controversy
As soon as He Shen finished speaking, the originally clear sky was suddenly covered by a black cloud, thunder suddenly broke out, and lightning and thunder began in the sky.
This indicates that there will be heavy rain soon.
He Shen looked up at the sky, despairing of all thoughts.
What does this mean?
I am not corrupt in the first place!
Why did the lightning and thunder start?
Does God also want me to die?
Zhao Gao had a few conversations with He Shen. He felt that this official who did not hate his status was quite good, and wanted to help him out, so he whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it's going to rain. Let's take shelter in the Xuanzheng Palace first."
Bar?"
Zhao Changqing shook his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I am a terrestrial god, and I have long been cleansed of dust and water."
Zhao Gao looked troubled and said: "But Prime Minister Zhuge and the others have been waiting for a long time. Your Majesty asked your servant to remind you..."
Just speak to the point, just right.
Zhao Changqing thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Heshen, Heshen, have you seen that even God doesn't believe what you say, how do you think I should believe you?"
At this moment, He Shen must have defended himself. He said: "Your Majesty, how could He Shen dare to commit corruption under your nose? I don't have the courage!"
Zhao Changqing sneered twice and thought to himself: "If this guy still doesn't admit it, he really won't shed tears until he sees the coffin. Anyway, the results of Jinyiwei's investigation will come out in a while. Let's see how you can still quibble!"
On the surface, he said calmly: "Get up and accompany me to the Xuanzheng Hall."
After hearing the sound, He Shen wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up quickly, nodded to Zhao Changqing and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhao Changqing smiled helplessly when he saw He Shen's appearance.
After arriving at the Xuanzheng Hall, Zhao Changqing sat on a chair, and He Shen consciously stood behind Zhuge Liang and stood side by side with Jia Xu.
Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Jian Yi, Jia Xu, and Bai Qi have been waiting for Zhao Changqing in the palace for a long time.
After he arrived, these people bowed to him immediately and shouted long live him.
After Zhao Changqing sat on the chair, he waved his hands to them. When he saw a file on the case that read "Three Families' Promotion Matters", he opened it and took a look.
The ministers did not disturb him and waited patiently for the emperor to finish reading the files.
In the end, Zhao Changqing sighed: "This Jin country is indeed firmly controlled by aristocratic families."
After saying this, he closed the file and looked at everyone.
Zhuge Liang took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, after the capital is moved, each ministry will perform its duties, and the various frontier officials have rushed to the new capital to meet with the Holy One. It is estimated that it will not take long before everything is on track."
Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "The country is peaceful. This is not a top priority. Right now, we need to keep an eye on the changes among the countries. I heard that the Tang State has secretly reached an alliance with the Chu State?"
Zhuge Liang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is what I just wanted to tell you. The alliance between Tang and Chu is definitely not a good thing for our Wei State. We need to treat it with caution."
After hearing their words, He Shen broke out in cold sweat.
This is a real military and political event!
This is the first time in my life that I have attended such a military event.
While I felt very honored, I was also frightened. I didn’t know if this was a good thing.
Zhao Changqing looked at Bai Qi and said with a smile: "Our Great Wei Kingdom's God of Killing, what do you think of this matter?"
Now everyone in the court knows that His Majesty the Emperor has begun to re-employ Bai Qi and intends to train him.
Although deliberately cultivating this general who is known as the god of death will cause more criticism from the government and the public, Zhao Changqing does not care. Talents must make good use of them. Firstly, it cannot affect their own earning of mediocrity points, and secondly, they can make the best use of them.
This is his current code of conduct.
If a strong general like Bai Qi is left vacant, it would be a waste of resources.
No one in the court knows yet. The old troops of Duke Cao were gradually put under the jurisdiction of Bai Qi. This is an omen. As expected, in the next few years, Bai Qi will
It is impossible to say that he will be so successful that he will even be ranked alongside Zhao Yun, Xiao Yuming and Chen Qingzhi.
After Bai Qi heard the emperor's question, he immediately stepped out from behind Zhao Yun, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the Tang State and the Chu State are separated by the Jin State and the Duan State.
It is obvious that the Chu State Alliance is coming to our Wei State, but because the two countries are far apart, their alliance can be ignored by our Wei State.
Moreover, Wei Chen also believes that this is just a way for the Tang State to check and balance our Wei State. As long as the Jin State is firmly in our hands, the Tang State will not be afraid."
Zhao Changqing listened attentively. After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Bai Qi is right. Among the countries now, who doesn't know the appetite of our country Wei? In this case, then behave and do things,
There is no need to be timid, let them form an alliance, I have nothing to fear, and neither does Wei!"
Zhuge Liang bowed to Zhao Changqing again and said: "Your Majesty, I have already started investigating Duan Guo's detailed strength. However, preliminary estimates suggest that Duan Guo will have at least 400,000 troops."
Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "You are a small country, with only 400,000 troops, how dare you found a country? Do you dare to claim to the outside world that you have a million troops? Sooner or later, I will flatten Duan Guo, and then I will fight against Tang Guo. Let's see.
Who should be the real master of this world!"
This was a strategy that had been determined earlier, so none of the ministers were surprised when they heard the emperor's words. However, Heshen was different. This was the first time he had heard of it!
He was instantly impressed by the emperor's supreme domineering power, and thought to himself, fortunately, there was no corruption when the new city was built.
There is such an emperor, and if you engage in corruption under his nose, isn't that looking for death?
Now that the seven kingdoms have divided the world, and turmoil is raging among the countries, it has reached the most exciting time. During this time, anything can happen.
But one thing will never change.
That is the eternal truth that the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy.
Zhao Changqing said to them again: "I originally wanted to go to Chu State immediately after moving the capital. But after moving the capital, I found that there are many things that need to be slowed down. So I thought that at the beginning of the next spring, that is, next year
It's time to send troops to the Chu State. There has been peace among the countries for so many years, and it's time to let it fall into chaos."
Since World War I, there has been no major conflict between countries for four or five years.
I guess everyone in the world has almost forgotten what war feels like, right?
Jia Xu, who had been silent for the whole time, spoke up and said: "Your Majesty, I would like to suggest that we attack the Liang Kingdom first, and then Tuduuan Kingdom. After unifying the Jin Dynasty, we should attack the Chu Kingdom, right?"
If at this time, Duan State and Tang State form an alliance and jointly send troops to Jin State and our country, the situation will be bad!"
Jia Xu is always like this, appearing at the most important moment and carefully analyzing the pros and cons of the matter with Zhao Changqing.
It can give him a clear idea of whether this thing is worth doing.
Zhao Changqing said sternly: "Actually, I have thought about this matter carefully. I plan to depose the Jin Emperor within this year and officially incorporate the Jin Kingdom into the territory of our Wei Kingdom. I have asked Chen Qingzhi and others to go first.
I went to test the attitude of the people of Jin State. I believe that after a few months, the Jin Emperor can be deposed. By then, the entire Jin State territory will be our natural barrier against the invasion of Duan State and Tang State. We cannot do it because of the restrictions of this country.
, let us, the Wei State, give up our vision of unifying the world, right?"
All the ministers nodded in agreement and started discussing.
In fact, Zhao Changqing had already begun to consider the matter of abolishing the Jin Emperor last year. Now everything is ready and all he needs is east wind.
After deposing the Jin Emperor, unifying the territory of the Jin State and rectifying its local military and political affairs, half a year was enough to turn the Jin State into the absolute defense area of the Wei State.
In this way, you can free up your hands to deal with the Chu State.
However, I am afraid that the battle against Chu will last a long time.
It does require a long time of preparation.
