As we all know, China has been a major agricultural and commercial country since ancient times.
Time flies, time flies.
Guangdong and Guangxi, along the coast.
The merchant fleet won a great victory overseas, no, it was very profitable. The governor specially ordered a grand fireworks banquet to be held on the coast.
All the people participated at will, and the whole house celebrated together.
"Bang~" the fireworks rose and the banquet began.
At the port, Lin Ruhai and his wife sat quietly on the shore, looking at the gorgeous fireworks in the distance.
The sea is vast and the fireworks are gorgeous.
A magnificent night sky is exuding colorful fireworks, and the diffuse fireworks are dazzling and full of mixed feelings.
A little bit of light gathered, and Lin Daiyu appeared to the side holding the little yellow cat.
Lin Ruhai did not come forward to contact her, because he knew that it was his daughter's thoughts and a dream.
"Daughter, how are you? Are the birthday fireworks arranged for you by your father nice?" Lin Ruhai said proudly.
Lin Daiyu raised her head, and brilliance bloomed in her dark pupils.
Slowly stroking the cute thing in her arms, the girl's mind wandered, and she suddenly remembered a song that Lele once sang to her.
"If you are the fireworks on the sea and I am the foam of the waves, at a certain moment, your light illuminates me..."
Fireworks and waves and foam at sea, their existence is fleeting.
The sea is vast, but fireworks are rarely set off, but the foam will dissipate every moment.
Therefore, the moment when a bubble is illuminated by fireworks, it is an extremely lucky moment.
In its limited and pitiful life, it was lucky enough to encounter such a beam of light, which allowed Bubble to see the most beautiful and wonderful brilliance in the world.
This is so much like love, because love is a very unlikely event.
She met the half she wanted to meet among tens of millions of people. In the endless river of millions of years, in the wilderness of endless time, she happened to catch up with him, neither a step too early nor a step too late.
Fireworks are born with light, and bubbles are humble luck when encountering a beam of light.
After watching the fireworks, the family quietly watched and listened to the waves of the sea.
Life lasts for a hundred years, but the sea has flowed for countless years, and human life is too short.
"I heard that Emperor Qing's health was not very good, and now he has asked the prince to assist the government?" Lin Ruhai suddenly asked.
Lin Daiyu nodded.
Although there were always Yuan-Building Pills provided by the Lin family, Emperor Qing could be said to have worked hard for the new dynasty.
In recent years, there have been great peasant uprisings in Sichuan, Chu, and Shaanxi. There have also been overseas barbarian countries from north to south, which have carried out various invasions into the Central Plains, spread sects, and traded tobacco and drugs.
Almost every day when Emperor Qing woke up, he found that his country was in turmoil. In addition to these external chaos, the officials in the court were all in conflict with each other, and corruption was rampant.
Even his younger brother King Zhongshun was involved in many things.
What can he do? Pull some people together, fight some people, and negotiate with some people.
There was no day off anyway. The key was that no matter how hard he tried, it seemed to have no effect.
Rebellions occur every year in various places and never stop. No matter how strict the ban on smoking is, there are still opium dens everywhere, and many local officials even take the lead.
Not to mention corruption, in the end even the national treasury will be reduced by more than half once counted.
Emperor Qing often felt that he did not understand the world, and eventually became depressed and ill. His health deteriorated over the years, and even the Yuan-Building Pill did not have much effect.
Heart disease is difficult to treat, let alone Emperor Qing, who is almost sixty years old.
"Hey!" Lin Ruhai let out a long sigh.
I still remember that Emperor Qing was kind to him, so he sacrificed his life to repay the imperial court, and as a scholar, he fought against the huge salt merchants in Lianghuai.
Later, he was transferred to Guangdong and Guangxi. Faced with all kinds of money and beauty temptations, he remained unmoved and did not neglect his wife at his side. He worked hard and fast and finally developed Guangdong and Guangxi into one of the top three tax-paying mansions in the Central Plains.
I thought that he would be transferred to the center next, and the monarch and his ministers would work together to become the chief and deputy envoys. One would be stationed in Kyoto, and the other would sweep the world outside, creating the most prosperous era in the history, and letting future generations watch a good story about the monarch and his ministers.
As a result, Emperor Qing softened his heart and seemed to be afraid. Although he fully supported Guangdong and Guangxi, he was still hesitant and timid about corrupt officials.
"Dad, I heard that Emperor Qing said in court that he would call you back to be the assistant minister of the new emperor." Lin Daiyu suddenly said.
Lin Ruhai's heart sank.
The transfer of imperial power in the past dynasties has been extremely dangerous. If he is ignored or demoted, it will be fine. The new emperor will give him a title after he succeeds, and the monarch and his ministers will put on a show, and they will be the old ministers of the two dynasties.
But when he reaches his current position and continues to be granted titles, what else can the new emperor be granted? A king? Or is it a stepping stone to become the new emperor and achieve his supreme glory and majesty?
"Is this true?" Lin Ruhai asked seriously.
Lin Daiyu nodded.
"Meow~" The little yellow cat jumped into Jia Min's arms and pushed hard.
Adult young women seem to have a unique charm.
Jia Min squinted her eyes and kissed her daughter directly, regardless of her angry expression.
"Lele is still cute."
Lin Ruhai rolled his eyes, stopped paying attention, and then fell into deep thought.
He has a family of young and old, and there are also many people from the Lin family's branches. In total, there are hundreds of people, old and young. Do they just rely on whether the new emperor will be merciful?
If you treat me with sincerity, I will not betray you. If I treat you with sincerity, if you betray me again, then I will treat you with my head in return? There is no such truth in the world!
"Daughter, what do you think?" Lin Ruhai glanced around and asked quietly.
Lin Daiyu stood up, stood with her hands behind her hands, looked at the horizon, her aura was overwhelming, and whispered: "In this world, except Lele, no one can make me kneel down and surrender."
Lin Ruhai looked at the sexy cat in his wife's arms in surprise:???
Little yellow cat:
I've never had to shovel shit like this before, she's talking nonsense, it's not me!
Royal study room.
"Father, here is the Jinke Examination List. Do you want to consider the rankings of the ministers again?" Prince Mianning handed over the memorial and said respectfully.
That year, the Tianli Sect rebels broke into the palace, and he led the team to stop them using blunderbuss. Although there were many masters among those rebels who could fly over walls, they were still powerless against the blunderbuss.
Within ten steps, the gun is fast and accurate.
From then on, he was valued by Emperor Qing and officially became the crown prince.
Emperor Qing casually took the memorial, glanced twice and saw the name at the bottom of the top three list: Jia Baoyu. When he raised the corner of his mouth, he thought of the young man who was born with a jade in his mouth and looked like a dragon and a phoenix.
After being expelled from the Jia family, living in a rural place with no power or influence, he could still pass the top three examinations, which is really good.
The key point is that a guy who is related to the rebels can actually appear in the imperial examination room openly and win honors.
This court is rotten to the core.
Moreover, he is probably only in his thirties now. Time is still long, and he may still be able to do something in the future. But he is already old. Every time he sees himself in the mirror, he even thinks of his father in his old age.
appearance.
He has white hair and spots on his face, and sometimes he can’t even hear clearly what others are saying.
He is really old.
Every time he took the Yuan-Building Pill, he could barely feel that his life was still alive. But just when he lay down, he thought of the big and small things happening in the country, and he couldn't sleep again.
The government forces the people to rebel. He obviously thinks about his people every day, so why do those people keep rebelling against him?
He could not sleep well at night, and every day he worried about how the country would become like this and how history would judge him in the future.
Did the new dynasty fall under the Qing Emperor? Did the Emperor decline?
‘Hometown’? If there really is such a place, then everyone in future generations will laugh at him when they see him.
"Ning'er, come here." Emperor Qing greeted.
The prince stepped forward, very seriously, his attitude was the same as that of Emperor Qing back then, benevolent, righteous and filial, everything was like a reincarnation.
Emperor Qing looked him up and down and seemed to see another version of himself.
"Prince, I leave the world to you!"
"Father!" The prince's eyes were filled with tears.
Emperor Qing stretched out his hand, interrupted him and continued: "Haha, in these years, those political affairs have been handled well, and all officials have recognized it. I can rest assured that the world will be entrusted to you.
Let me tell you two things:
First: Lin Ruhai, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, this person is extremely capable and loyal. However, he is a bit cruel in his methods, so the officials have not allowed him to return to Beijing.
However, I have been suffering from deep mistakes from top to bottom. If it were not for such a person to turn the tide, I am afraid that I would have perished in your hands.
So I plan to call him back before passing the throne to you and serve as an auxiliary minister. By then, I will drag anyone who disagrees with me to go with him. Anyway, my reputation is already extremely bad.
Second: Your Majesty, do you know why my reputation is so good among the officials? It’s because I am too kind and can’t bear to take the knife. Maybe I will be given the posthumous title of Renzong after my death.
Haha, Renzong? After the few Renzongs in ancient times, is the country going to perish?
So don't imitate me. As the supreme being in the world and the son of heaven, you should have the power of a king and be decisive in killing.
Corruption: kill! Cliques: kill! Those who disobey: kill! Those who are capable will be promoted, and those who are inferior will be demoted!
In this way, maybe you, Prince, can become the central leader of our dynasty and continue the destiny of our dynasty for hundreds of more years."
As he spoke, Emperor Qing suddenly regretted that he should not have left this mess to his children.
"Prince, do you hear me clearly?"
Mian Ning nodded seriously: "My son, I must do something!"
Emperor Qing nodded and then felt relieved: "Okay, let's go down!"
"My son, please retire!"
After slowly retreating out the door, the prince stood at the door of Yangxin Hall, overlooking the huge imperial city.
This picturesque land will be his from now on.
Even at this moment, he has already thought about his future reign name. He will be called Daoguang, which means a bright future. In the future, under his leadership, the new dynasty will achieve a prosperous age that China has never seen before, and will be worshiped by all nations.
Overwhelm the world.
From now on, his name will leave a colorful page in the history!
As for his father's instructions, he understood what he meant after thinking for a while.
The killing was decisive! Is there any question about who was killed? Of course it was Lin Ruhai, who supported the troops in Guangdong and Guangxi and respected himself. Otherwise, why would he be brought back?
Moreover, he has been dealing with political affairs all year round, and he even saw the miserable appearance of the people of Guangdong and Guangxi in the memorial of hundreds of officials, which was completely different from the memorial of Lin Ruhai.
As the dignified governor, Lin Ruhai controlled the salt, iron and grain and competed with the people for profit, making the people work hard for a year, and the price of the grain could not even be sold.
Moreover, he also engaged in shipping and transactions with those overseas barbarians, with ulterior motives. He made so much money every year, but only gave the imperial court six percent of his profits.
What are you doing with so much money? Do you support your troops and respect yourself?
Moreover, Guangdong and Guangxi levy such a small tax on the people, only 30%. Isn’t this an attempt to undermine the foundation of the new dynasty? The tax revenue there is so small, while other places collect much more, how can other regions survive?
Then don't all the people run there? Then there are fewer and fewer people in other places. Who will farm their land? Who can the court look for to collect taxes?
When he acted like this, he had no overall view of the world, and only cared about his country within a country, the land of the Lin family.
There are countless other crimes committed, including privately killing ministers, censors, and officials.
My father was deceived by the so-called Lin Aiqing's memorial, and had been staying in the country for all these years. But he saw with his own eyes the memorials of hundreds of officials, one after another, which is simply too numerous to write down.
Moreover, Lin Ruhai's daughter, Lin Daiyu, is even more arrogant and arrogant.
He, the majestic prince and the crown prince of the world, paid a visit in person, but the woman turned out to be silent and repeatedly hit the wall. He didn't even have the basic etiquette to return the favor.
Is this disrespectful to him? This is a slap in the face of his father and the face of the world, and there is no mercy at all.
Once he was enlightened, he would not allow such an awesome person to exist!
"Yes, Father, you are right. As the supreme king of the world, of course he must kill everyone in the world who hinders him from becoming the emperor for eternity!" The prince strode away under the sunset.
Excellent martial arts? Mr. Lin, times have changed. Nowadays, everyone uses guns and artillery!
No matter how powerful a hero is, he can defeat thousands of armies. As long as he is still in mortal form, he cannot withstand the infinitely powerful explosives.
As soon as he ascends to the throne, he eliminates great harm to hundreds of officials and accomplishes the great deeds that even his father failed to accomplish. His fame and power will surely reach their peak in a short period of time.
Until then, he will take advantage of the general trend to do what his father always wanted to do but did not dare to do: eliminate corruption, clean up the world, and bring justice to the court.
Daoguang, Daoguang, one day, he will wipe out all the obstacles that hinder the progress of the new dynasty. He will join hands with all the officials of the court to build a truly prosperous world!
The prince's pace became faster and faster, and in the end he even broke into a trot.
Time was running out, he had to arrange it early and quickly. He even couldn't wait to see Lin Daiyu, the most talented woman in the capital, kneeling in front of him, begging for mercy.
Thinking about it makes me a little excited.
…
Unconsciously, undercurrents surged in the capital.
The replacement of the emperor is a major event involving the fate of all families, and this new emperor seems to have different ambitions.
At the same time, 50% to 60% of the officials, the Imperial Army, and the Jinwu Guards, from captain to commander, seemed to be having a strange dream every night.
Their ancestors were standing in front of them and kept saying something, but they couldn't hear clearly.
For several days, they finally vaguely heard the last words: "Great happiness, Lin family emperor!"
When you woke up from your dream, everyone kept silent.
This thing is really incredible.
From the power of the dragon???
…
I have to work overtime to write code again. I will update it for a few days first.
