Chapter 288 I, Shen Fen, are a loyal minister(1/2)
Three days in a row.
There are more than a dozen ministers missing from the DPRK.
Even the court hall became a little empty.
In the main hall.
Emperor Wu looked at the ministers below and couldn't help but sigh: "I never expected this. I have been wondering for the past two days, have I treated you badly?"
Although with a smile.
But none of the ministers below thought that Emperor Wu was joking with them.
Emperor Wu continued: "I am very reluctant to investigate you."
"During the existence of Dongchang, have I ever asked Cao Zhengchun to check on you in the past few years?"
"If it hadn't been for this time, I wouldn't have known that so many people would dare to be so greedy!"
"It's okay if they are greedy, but what they are greedy for is Japan. With my Dawu salary, are they working as officials for Japan?"
"It turns out that there is a reason why I have been prevented from sending troops to Japan. If I destroy Japan, wouldn't it mean that I will destroy their source of money? I will destroy their God of Wealth?"
Shen Fen said: "Your Majesty, there are seventeen people in total. Apart from Feng Buyi, the rest include three second-grade officials, five third-grade officials, and the rest are all fourth-grade officials."
"These people and three generations of their families have been deprived of their martial arts, had their meridians cut off, and were exiled to the Eastern Sea. What awaits them is to be eaten by the fish in the sea."
Several hundred people.
They were all cleaned up by Shen Fen.
"but."
Shen Fen looked at Cao Zhengchun: "Your Majesty, I am using the name of Dongchang this time. When the news gets out, I am afraid that Dongchang's reputation will get even higher."
Cao Zhengchun: "......!"
Emperor Wu nodded: "You are Cao Zhengchun's apprentice, Cao Zhengchun should bear the burden for you."
Cao Zhengchun: "......!"
Emperor Wu said again: "Shen Qing has worked hard this time. Shen Qing originally wanted to cultivate his mind and character, but he didn't expect Shen Qing to do such a thing again. Cao Zhengchun, this time you have to thank your apprentice."
"Thirty percent of all the money seized this time will be transferred to Dongchang to train talents in Dongchang."
Hear the words.
Cao Zhengchun's eyes were filled with joy.
Thirty percent.
It doesn’t look like much, but the base is huge!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Tiedan Shenhou said at this time: "Your Majesty, Lord Chen is leading the army to cross the sea this time. Just in case, I have mobilized the masters of Hulong Villa to accompany Lord Chen. In case of encountering the intervention of Japanese masters, Hulong Villa The masters can fight against it.”
Emperor Wu nodded: "Well, the emperor's uncle is still thinking carefully."
"In addition, another 10% will be given to Hulong Villa to cover the expenses of Hulong Villa."
Tiedan Shenhou: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
...
study.
There were only two people, Emperor Wu and Shen Fen.
"Your Majesty, I asked you to come here. Is there anything wrong?" Shen Fen looked at Emperor Wu who was sitting there quietly reading a book and asked.
Emperor Wu put down the book in his hand.
He looked at Shen Fen and said, "Shen Qing, I won't live long."
Um?
Shen Fen's expression changed and he immediately said: "Your Majesty is a holy king, and he has God's blessing."
Emperor Wu laughed.
He stood up, walked to Shen Fen, and said, "Shen Fen, I won't hide it from you. Cao Zhengchun, Tiedan Shenhou, and the six ministers know about this matter."
Shen Fen was really stunned this time.
You must know that Emperor Wu was only a dozen years older than him.
In your thirties?
With such martial arts skills, how could he not live long?
Emperor Wu said: "You also know that I told you about the martial arts that I practice, right? The martial arts of the Four Seas and the Eight Wilds. This technique has a characteristic, that is, it can be achieved quickly."
"I have been practicing since I was a child."
"It has been ten years since I achieved the Great Perfection in my skills. Up to now, I have twenty volumes of magical powers, all of which are in Great Perfection."
"As for the realm?"
There was a look of pride in Emperor Wu's eyes: "All the emperors from other dynasties combined may not be able to kill me."
Shen Fen was shocked inside.
this......
Is this cheating?
Isn't this clearly saying that I am invincible?
"What about Your Majesty?" Shen Fen asked curiously.
Emperor Wu smiled softly: "You don't know something. Once you start practicing this magical martial art, your strength will become stronger even if you sleep. The only drawback is that those who practice this magical skill will not live past the age of forty."
"It has nothing to do with realm or anything. As long as you practice cultivation, you can live up to forty years."
"I am thirty-six this year."
"There are still four years left, especially after the age of thirty-five, you cannot use martial arts frequently. Otherwise, five years may become one or two years..."
"This is also the reason why Immortal Gu Yue asked me whether I could bear it."
When Shen Fen heard this, he was a little confused.
"But what is the meaning of your Majesty's doing this?"
Emperor Wu looked outside.
"The meaning is that in the past few decades, no one dares to touch or mess with the Wu Dynasty."
"In every dynasty, the previous emperor practiced this magical skill and suppressed dissatisfaction. The emperors of the subsequent generation did not need to practice and developed in a low-key manner."
"Then the next generation will continue to practice."
Emperor Wu said: "Now that the Great Wu Dynasty is on the right track, almost no one dares to invade the border. This situation will not be a problem for fifty or sixty years, so my son does not need to practice."
"However, in fifty or sixty years, this quiet situation will definitely be broken."
"When the time comes, my grandson will practice cultivation and let him suppress it once, and so on."
"When fighting a war, you fight for money."
"What we fight for is prosperity. Only the emperors in the past have enough money can the emperors of the future generations afford it."
"Shen Fen, do you know why the late emperor tolerated the invasion of foreign tribes? He was waiting for me, waiting for me to grow up."
"But this way, there are also disadvantages."
Emperor Wu looked at Shen Fen: "Back then, the person who protected the late emperor was Imperial Master Lu Li."
"In this generation, I want you to protect my son."
"It only takes fifty years, maybe thirty years."
"When my son has a son, I will protect him from growing up."
Shen Fen heard these words from Emperor Wu.
Somewhat understood.
This situation is like the three generations of Wen, Jing, and Wu in his past life memory.
The two emperors Wen and Jing founded the Wen-Jing rule.
Only later generations of Emperor Wu had the capital to fight foreigners.
Emperor Wu patted Shen Fen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Concubine Su is pregnant with a boy. He is destined to be a prosperous emperor. However, it is difficult to be a prosperous emperor, and it is easy to become a faint king."
"After I die, you have to help me look after him."
"In the prosperous world, save enough capital for the next generation of emperors to fight. Only in this way can the Dawu Dynasty last forever."
Shen Fen: "......!"
"Your Majesty, I understand!"
