A curse resounded throughout the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Xu Changqing was furious, his beard was flying, his chest was rising and falling violently with anger, and he had begun to tremble.
Shameless.
So shameless.
This old thief is older than me, how many years does he have to live now?
It was no longer just one foot stepping on the coffin board, but both feet stepping in. I almost fell into the coffin board and closed my eyes completely.
And what about Dou Changsheng?
This year I am only in my twenties.
Dou Changsheng was only one-tenth of the old thief's age.
How dare he say such words.
No need to lose any face.
Xu Changqing roared loudly, and the glazed tiles of the Taihe Hall began to vibrate and rattle.
It also brought the shocked officials back to their senses. They stared at Gaozong in horror, looking at the snow-white hair on Gaozong's temples. Even with the crown covering most of his face, they could still see the wrinkles on Gaozong's face.
And what about Dou Changsheng on the side?
He is as handsome as a demon, young and in his best years.
Dou Changsheng was too young to be Gaozong's grandson. Normally, the difference in age would be many generations.
Just like the dead Jin King, he even has grandchildren, and they are not too young.
An old man in his 200s wanted to worship a man in his twenties as his father-in-law.
If this scene appeared in the market, it would not be impossible. There are 108 continents in the world, and each continent has a population of tens of millions. There are too many people, and there will be no strange things.
But this is Emperor Gaozong.
He was the emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
He is the supreme being in the world.
Does this mean you don’t even want to lose face?
No matter what Gaozong thought, this kind of performance made people disappointed and lost their hearts. Many people who originally loved Gaozong and supported Gaozong against Xu Changqing were now ashen-faced. They were completely desperate.
I was completely disheartened and lost all my fighting spirit, as if I had been drained of all my energy.
This scene is really unacceptable. If Gaozong was a young emperor, he would have to bear the humiliation and bear the burden, but Gaozong's age and status were not enough.
There was an uproar in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and he immediately remembered the chaotic sounds.
Some angry people were already shouting and wanted to stop Gaozong, while others were whispering to their friends.
All kinds of messy sounds kept coming to mind in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Even Dou Changsheng was stunned and stared at Gaozong in stunned silence. He never expected that the other party would bring him the emperor's father and regent.
This is simply asking you.
What is it like to have an older son who is over 200 years old?
Dou Changsheng slowly calmed down, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and directly corrected himself: "The Hall of Supreme Harmony is the center of power in the world and a solemn and sacred place."
"Your Majesty must never make such a joke."
Emperor Gaozong stood up from the dragon chair and walked towards Dou Changsheng. He said with a solemn expression, "I'm not joking."
"Prince Chen and His Majesty Daxia are brothers, and these are my elders."
"Prince Chen cannot accept his royal father as regent, so it is better for him to be his uncle's regent."
As soon as the word "uncle emperor" came out, Dou Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. This was acceptable. His son who was over 200 years old could not accept it, but there was nothing wrong with his nephew who was over 200 years old.
Although he is young, he has a big nephew, which is common in the world.
There are too many senior people. Whoever is your age may be your ninth grandpa.
wrong.
Why do I want a nephew who is over 200 years old?
I almost fell into a trap.
Dou Changsheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, be careful what you say."
"Gods and demons will return to gods and demons, and ordinary people will return to ordinary people. The two cannot be compared."
"There are too many things going on today, and Your Majesty is also tired."
"Please also ask Governor Cao to help His Majesty return to the palace to rest."
Cao Shaoyang, who had been standing by the side, responded: "No."
Cao Shaoyang bowed his waist, looked at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose. He took small steps and walked to Gaozong's side. He stretched out his hand to support Gaozong's arm, and then walked out of the hall.
Wang Shifan looked at the messy Taihe Hall and couldn't help but drop the fluorene board in his hand.
Katsa,
A crisp voice sounded.
The fluorene board was smashed into pieces, and the fragments flew in all directions. This sudden scene suddenly attracted the attention of all the officials, and the originally buzzing voices suddenly stopped.
Wang Shifan said angrily: "The king is not the king, and the minister is not the minister."
"The demons are dancing wildly, and the atmosphere of national subjugation is everywhere."
"This great week is going to perish!"
This sentence is extremely destructive, and it affects a large area. I don’t know how many people have been touched. Some people are afraid of Wang Shifan. Although they are angry in their hearts, they dare not speak, but some people are not afraid. These people have one thing in common.
His identity is Xu Dang.
They were all promoted by Xu Changqing. Their level of work may not be very high, but they are definitely good at scolding people. They are especially good at eliminating dissidents and retaliating. It is because they unite around Xu Changqing that the Xu Party is very effective.
.
Someone immediately scolded and said: "The great Zhou Dynasty is now in the reign of the Holy Emperor. The Grand Master is in charge, and the king is a saint and his ministers are virtuous. They will surely be passed down for hundreds of generations in the future."
"You actually cursed Da Zhou to die."
"Uncle Zong, what are your intentions?"
"The rebel king Changgong's surname is Wang, and your surname is also Wang. Are you from the same clan?"
Dou Changsheng frowned and looked at this scene. He had only been away for more than a year. How could this great Zhou become like this?
Is it really God's will that will destroy the Zhou Dynasty?
Gaozong, who was originally wise and wise, now seemed crazy, otherwise he would not have said such crazy things to his father and regent.
The remaining officials in the imperial court gave Dou Changsheng a feeling of smoky atmosphere just after they came into contact with them.
Just as Wang Shifan said, the atmosphere of national subjugation is evident everywhere nowadays.
Xu Changqing observed his words, and when Dou Changsheng's expression changed, he immediately woke up and directly scolded him: "Uncle Da Zong was just angry for a moment, and your Majesty made him angry."
"Uncle Da Zong has no bad intentions."
Mr. Ma's arrogant demeanor immediately disappeared, and he took the initiative to apologize and said: "This official made a mistake, please don't blame me."
Wang Shifan flicked his sleeves and left angrily.
After watching Wang Shifan leave, Yang Kaitai walked leisurely towards the outside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. In a blink of an eye, all the cabinet members left, and Dou Changsheng also left with an expressionless face.
Today's court meeting was like a farce. I don't know what Gaozong was thinking.
Are you dissatisfied with your regency?
Or something else?
However, if you want to stop it, you can also use other methods. The current method will only lose face and damage the prestige of Dazhou. When the news spreads all over the world, Gaozong will become a laughing stock, and Dazhou will also become a joke.
After walking out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Dou Changsheng did not return to Qinglongfang, but walked towards the palace. After walking a few steps, Dou Changsheng found that he was not familiar with the harem, so he waved to an internal servant and gave the order: "Take me
Go and see His Majesty."
"promise!"
The chamberlain responded and walked cautiously forward. After a while, he arrived in front of a palace.
There was a group of armored soldiers outside the palace. When they saw Dou Changsheng arriving, they held their spears high and crossed each other to block Dou Changsheng.
This is the first obstacle I have encountered since arriving at the palace.
The chamberlain said in a deep voice: "Prince Chen wants to see His Majesty."
"Why don't you get out of the way?"
The commander said in a deep voice: "No one can enter the important area of the palace without His Majesty's order."
The chamberlain was about to speak again, but Dou Changsheng raised his hand to stop the chamberlain, and took the initiative to speak: "Please go and inform His Majesty that Dou Changsheng wants to see you."
The commander nodded and said: "Wait."
With a wave of his hand, a soldier left in a hurry.
The chamberlain stood there, watching this scene indifferently, looking at the commander, full of sarcasm. This high commander was loyal to his duties and had the demeanor of a famous general. If it were other people, he might have a good impression of him and be appreciated in the end.
The chamberlain could not tell whether Commander Gao was loyal to His Majesty Gaozong or because he wanted to show off and gain Dou Changsheng's respect.
But the chamberlain knew one thing, the high commander was about to die.
Dou Changsheng is famous all over the world for his small belly and chicken intestines. He never takes revenge overnight. Legend has it that when he was in Lucheng, Qidi, he went to Xijiang Yueda Restaurant for dinner. Because the private room was booked out, Dou Changsheng did not enjoy the best treatment, so Xijiang
Yue Da Restaurant is gone.
The Xijiang Sword Sect that occupied Yajian was even worse. They didn't know that Dou Changsheng also wanted Yajian, and the final result was that the Xijiang Sword Sect was destroyed and died cleanly.
Even after his death, he was credited by Dou Changsheng, and the Xijiang Sword Sect was transformed into the outer sect of the Yinji Sect.
Retaliation became a meritorious investigation. Not only did they plunder the Xijiang Sword Sect's wealth for hundreds of years, but they also made great achievements based on it and began to rise rapidly.
So along the way, after recognizing Dou Changsheng, I still wanted to let Dou Changsheng come over, even if I thought it was dereliction of duty.
If you are guilty of dereliction of duty, you may or may not die, but if you offend Dou Changsheng, you will definitely die.
Soon the sound of hurried footsteps was heard, and it was not only the soldiers who came back, but also Cao Shaoyang, the governor of the East Factory. Cao Shaoyang glanced at Commander Gao coldly, but did not scold him, but said with a smile: "Do your duty faithfully, and you will be very good."
good."
Cao Shaoyang praised him, and then personally led Dou Changsheng towards the inside. He also noticed Dou Changsheng's expression and snorted coldly in his heart, pretending to be coy.
Cao Shaoyang is too familiar with this and knows that he must not retaliate against Commander Gao at this moment. Dou Changsheng is a good person, how could he retaliate, so he has to wait for Dou Changsheng to leave. When the two things are not related, Commander Gao is a famous general at first glance.
The wind is sent to Northern Xinjiang to serve.
If you go to the Northern Xinjiang Army, you will definitely be able to shine brightly, defeat the barbarians, and shock the world. This is something you can do with your hands. After all, he is a famous general.
Dou Changsheng did not know that they had so many inner dramas, and soon met Gaozong in a palace.
Dou Changsheng sat down and went straight to the topic: "What does your Majesty mean today?"
"I am loyal to Your Majesty."
"For the world, for the great Zhou Dynasty."
"I have already handed over the Xuanyuan Gong. Is it possible that your Majesty still cannot trust me?"
Gaozong personally raised his hand, poured tea for Dou Changsheng, and slowly said: "I do this because I believe in the Grand Master."
"I am old and frail, and my energy is not as good as before. When I was young, even if I stayed up for three days and three nights to deal with government affairs, I was still energetic. Now, after only half a day, I can no longer concentrate."
"I can no longer save the Zhou Dynasty and bring peace to the world."
"So I have to step back and let the Grand Master take charge of the affairs of the court. I will assist the Grand Master Zuo from behind."
"And to do this, I must take a step back, otherwise the monarchy and the prime minister's power will compete and friction will continue, and both sides are destined to lose."
"It seems that Xu Changqing's family dominates the imperial court, and the Xu Party dominates the power. In fact, the foundation of Xu Changqing's party is too shallow, and all it gathers are those who are striving for fame and fortune. They value profits and have no loyalty at all. As long as Xu Changqing shows signs of decline,
, they will abandon Xu Changqing, and the Xu Party will fall apart."
"On the contrary, there are many who remain silent, many royalists, who are loyal to the clan, and some, like Wang Shifan, are not loyal to one person, and they are not loyal to Zhou Dynasty. They are loyal to the people of the world, fulfill their duties, and love the people, such as Tai
Just like a teacher."
"If I don't take a step back, then the royalists will definitely be entrenched around me. Even if I take the initiative to restrain them, it won't have much effect. They will definitely obstruct it secretly, or even eliminate the Grand Master."
"The Grand Master is the savior of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In the future, he will calm down the troubled times and revitalize the Great Zhou Dynasty. How can I allow this scene to happen?"
"So only if I disappoint them will they give up on the clan and not become the Grand Master's enemies. The Grand Master will also use this to win people's hearts and completely control the court."
Gaozong spoke his heartfelt words. Dou Changsheng was very moved when he heard this, but his brows were still deeply furrowed. Finally, he couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty has this intention, and there are many ways to do it. Why do you need to take such an extreme method?"
"You must know that this is not only a loss of His Majesty's face, but also a loss of the prestige of Great Zhou."
Gaozong was silent for a moment, and then he spoke: "Cut the knot with a sharp knife, Da Zhou can no longer delay it."
"There are too many things that need to be dealt with. The Star Observation Deck has aroused resentment in the world. Now the Central Plains is still stable, but the border areas are already unstable. Civil unrest may occur at any time. The wealthy families who occupy the place may have some ambitions.
Anyone with an erection is already ready to take action."
"Also above the imperial court, although the Xu Party is unbearable, what is even more unbearable are those who do nothing."
"They are the cancer of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They are not without talents, but because they see that the situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty is not good, they are half-hearted and do things half-heartedly every day. The salary and power given to them by the Great Zhou Dynasty is how they repay the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Zhou’s,”
"A typical example of this is the left minister of the household department. When he was the pastor of Qizhou in the past, he was also conscientious and accomplished many things. He never expected to be promoted to the left minister of the household department. Instead, he became taciturn. Every day was chaotic and pure chaos.
of the day.”
"The imperial court still needs the Grand Master to deal with it in the future. I can only assist the Grand Master."
Dou Changsheng picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"As long as I have my ministers here, there will be no chaos in the Zhou Dynasty."
"I will first reorganize the court, clear out those people who are in their prime positions, and start appointing some permanent officials to take over. Then there will be the Star Observation Deck. I have already had an idea in my mind. The Star Observation Deck will waste people and money and arouse the people.
The main reason for the change is that the people are doing corvee labor and have no income at all. Instead, they have to work hard, delay the busy work of farming, and even have to spend their own money because of food and drink problems."
"I will go to see Da Situ and ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to provide some money to improve the plight of the people."
"Now the Great Zhou Dynasty is at its peak, the treasury is not empty, it is rich."
Gaozong shook his head and said: "The Great Zhou Dynasty paid a lot of taxes, but not everyone in the court was an upright official. There were a lot of tricks among them. Many granaries or bank vaults may have problems. If you check, it will be difficult to escape."
The word water."
"Furthermore, relying on the treasury of the Great Zhou Dynasty to build a star observatory is a drop in the bucket. The Great Zhou Dynasty is rich, but there are places to spend money everywhere. Many people will not be willing to spend less money on themselves and use it on the people.
On the body."
"I remember the saint who died, but he once said that the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the master, not the untouchables."
"Although this sentence sounds a little ugly, it makes sense."
"No matter how many ordinary people there are, they are no match for the Grandmaster. The world is unstable now, but if Great Zhou has ten magic weapons, it will be as stable as Mount Tai."
"The ninth level of martial arts, and those who reached the upper third level in ancient times could already be called immortals. Every move they make can affect the celestial phenomena, and a battle can sweep hundreds of miles."
"For example, during the great battle of the Grand Master in Doujiazhuang, there was heavy snowfall in Qing County, which affected the livelihood of the people in the county. The government had to ask strong people to take action in order to disperse the celestial phenomena and warm the earth."
Dou Changsheng said in a deep voice: "The money in Dazhou is not enough, and there are many moths like these. There is no need to be merciful to them."
"Kill one person and save the world."
Gaozong sighed, slowly stood up and left, turning his back to Dou Changsheng and preaching: "If the Grand Master wants to do something, then do it."
"I won't care."
"I fully support the Taishi Association."
"If even the Grand Master cannot save the Great Zhou, then the Great Zhou will surely perish."
After Gaozong finished speaking, he walked outside step by step. Dazhou was really beyond saving. If Dou Changsheng carried out such cruel methods, he would definitely arouse the resentment of the great clans and turn the whole world against him. There was no suspense about this.
It is good for ordinary people, but they will not be grateful. Instead, they will be deceived by the wealthy and powerful families, thinking that they are suffering now because of Dou Changsheng.
In the end, it was a thankless task, and he offended the world and provoked a crusade from the world.
If it had been anyone else, Gaozong would have thought he was crazy and asked for death again. But this was Dou Changsheng, so it was different. Dou Changsheng wanted to use this to cause chaos in the world.
With his unparalleled strength, as long as he is not besieged by a large number of divine soldiers, he is invincible.
Use your own power to suppress a country.
Naturally, he didn't care about the outcome, because Dou Changsheng would be fine, and he could even fulfill his destiny and directly become a god and demon.
Chen Miezhou was a born evil person, but Dou Changsheng was ten times, a hundred times more evil than him.
