Looking at the golden and heavy wheat ears in the farmland, the saint repeatedly said hello.
As an emperor, if under his rule he can keep the people fed and clothed and no longer suffer from hunger, then he will be a prosperous and wise king.
Unfortunately, it was He Xi who came up with the high-yield grain, and the saint was somewhat disappointed.
There is no way, He Xi is a chess piece secretly arranged by the saint.
Originally, the saint wanted to use He Xi to move the huge rock of the Guo family, and tried to find an opportunity to break the situation.
It’s not that saints don’t care about feelings, kindness and righteousness, it’s actually——
How can we allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
Throughout the ages, no emperor could tolerate the loss of military power.
His own soldiers and horses were dubbed the x Family Army.
Was the Great Xia Dynasty belonged to the royal family or the Guo family?!
This is definitely the biggest provocation to the imperial power.
The saint knew that Consort Guo's brother-in-law was loyal enough, and believed that the Guo family would not rebel easily.
However, a saint does not want to pin his own safety and the stability of his country on the loyalty of others.
He must have absolute power, no matter whether it is the affairs of the court or the frontier troops thousands of miles away, he should not only know Guo's consort but not who the emperor is!
The saint's plan started smoothly, and He Xi was indeed a smart man.
The sage just gave a little hint, and He Xi understood it and even established a relationship with Vice General Ma.
Some plans have already begun to unfold, and we are just waiting for the opportunity to come, and big things can come true.
However, just when everything was going smoothly, accidents occurred frequently.
First, Prince Consort Guo suddenly proposed to resign from office to recuperate from illness.
The saint is happy that Guo's consort is willing to leave the Guo family army.
However, the sage also knew that the Guo family would not give up their army of 100,000 men easily.
Guo's consort retired just to reduce the court's suspicion of the Guo family's army.
No, just when the saint wanted Vice General Ma to replace Consort Guo, news came from the border.
The Hulu ran to plunder a certain border town, and Lieutenant General Ma was ordered to go to the rescue. During the battle, he was shot to death by random arrows from the Hulu.
saint:……
No matter how stupid he is, a saint will also react.
Lieutenant General Ma's true identity was revealed by the Guo family. His death was not only the revenge of Guo's consort, but also a warning sent by the Guo family to the emperor, the Saint——
Dear, Guo Jiajun is not something you can interfere with.
The hatred in the saint's heart is so painful that he cannot express it.
Not only could he not care about this matter, but he also endured his anger and unwillingness and promoted Guo Dalang to the rank of General of the Northwest Army.
Of course, Guo Dalang is not Guo's consort, and his prestige in the Guo family army is far inferior to that of his own father.
If Consort Guo is the king of lions, then Guo Dalang is at best a young lion cub.
If he wants to completely control the Guo family army and pose a threat to the imperial power, Guo Dalang still has a long way to go.
Besides, Guo Dalang is the saint's direct nephew, and there is a blood relationship between the two.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, Guo Dalang will not rebel easily.
Guo Dalang is more worthy of the saint's trust than Guo Consort.
This is one of the reasons why the saint is willing to give in.
Although it failed to directly eliminate the Guo family army, it was good to reduce the threat of the Guo family army to the imperial power.
The saint and the Guo family achieved a temporary balance.
However, whether it is the Sage or the Guo family, both parties know very well that this balance will be broken sooner or later.
The saint is afraid of the Guo family's army, and the Guo family does not want to be the target of the chopping block. There must be a fight between the two.
He Xi is just a little person, but to the saint, he is a chess piece that can destroy the Guo family.
As long as it is used properly, it will be extremely effective.
result--
Alas, it's not too bad to become a capable and practical official.
In fact, if possible, the saint would not want to involve Princess Ankang.
"..." Looking at the harvested wheat fields, and then at the handsome man with both feet covered in dirt, the saint sighed silently in his heart and completely gave up on the chess piece He Xi.
He Xi can no longer be used, but the saint will not give up and continue to dismantle the Guo family.
So, soon, the saint raised another pawn.
Like He Xi, this man came from a poor family, but he was not a civil servant, but a military general.
In the early years, it was all thanks to the guidance and support of Prince Consort Guo that he could gradually grow from a big-headed soldier to a general with real power.
This man is indeed grateful for the kindness of Consort Guo, but he is even more greedy for the pie promised by the saint - to replace the Guo family and become the northwest war god of the Great Xia Dynasty!
He Tiantian: ...hehe, I have someone to pick up again.
It has to be said that with the perspective of classmate Xiao D, He Tiantian seems to have opened an extra plug-in.
She can accurately find targets that harvest hatred.
He Tiantian found an opportunity and got in touch with the family of this military commander.
Then, she didn't do anything, just reminded Ankang a little.
After Princess Ankang spent this time with her mother-in-law, she suddenly had a strange feeling——
Her mother-in-law must have magical abilities. Anyone who is targeted by her old man will always have problems of one kind or another.
This is not Ankang's random guess, but there are several real cases.
Think about Vice General Ma, the Yang family and his son, the Lord of Lingrou County, and...
Princess Ankang folded her hands and counted them, and found that her mother-in-law had really made a lot of enemies in recent months.
Ah, no, yes, I had conflicts with many evil people and traitors.
Therefore, there should be something wrong with General Chen.
Ankang didn't dare to delay, so he hurried back to Duke Wei's mansion and reminded his father, Prince Consort Guo.
"Chen Zhong? Okay, I understand!"
Consort Guo nodded calmly and silently wrote down the name.
Soon, beacon fires were set off at the border, and the barbarians invaded Daxia.
Guo Dalang mistakenly believed General Chen's news and led an army of 100,000 people to be surrounded by barbarians.
When the news reached the capital, the whole court was in an uproar.
There was a censor who did not deal with the Guo family, and the civil servants took the opportunity to impeach him, saying that Guo Dalang did not understand military affairs, acted without authorization, harmed the country and the people, and harmed the court.
The saint was furious, but he still made an expression like "I believe Guo Yaozu, he is just not capable enough and has absolutely no rebellious intentions."
At this time, the family members of General Chen Zhong came out to report, saying that Guo Yaozu, the eldest son of the Guo family, had colluded with the barbarians and intended to overthrow the Great Xia Empire.
The Chen family members took some letters, and after identification, the handwriting in the letters was naturally Guo Yaozu's.
The saint still didn't believe it, but in the court, all the civil and military officials demanded a strict investigation of the Guo family and the Duke Wei's mansion.
In order to calm the public anger and give the Guo family a chance to prove their innocence, the saint had no choice but to temporarily put Guo's consort into a prison.
However, just when everyone in the capital thought that Prince Consort Guo and Duke Wei were doomed, another news came from the border——
Guo Yaozu and his 100,000-strong army were not ambushed. Guo Yaozu had long discovered that General Chen was colluding with the Hulu, and they just came to take advantage of the situation.
Guo Yaozu wiped out the Huru army and captured the Huru young prince alive. He forced the Huru to retreat a hundred miles, crying and shouting that he wanted to negotiate peace with Daxia.
saint:……
He was so "surprised" that he returned to the harem stiffly and fainted.
who is it?
Who sabotaged my plan?
How hateful!
A prompt sounded from the depths of He Tiantian's consciousness: "Ding! The emperor's hatred is worth 30!"
When Chen Zhong was executed and the Chen family was confiscated, He Tiantian also gained a large wave of hatred.
Hmm, the system is so powerful.
Even if the other party doesn't know who He Tiantian was, as long as the matter has something to do with her, the hatred generated will be attributed to He Tiantian!
The saint fell ill and fell into a coma, so his grown-up sons began to fight over him.
Fortunately, the capital city was not looted by barbarians at this time, and the princes only dared to cause trouble in the palace and with a few princes.
The imperial palace and several major palaces were purged again and again.
Not to mention a few princes, even older princes like King Qi were implicated.
The palace was burned down, and the masters and slaves in the palace died one after another.
By the end, the whole capital was in a state of uproar.
It was Prince Consort Guo who made a decisive decision and rushed out of the capital to bring back reinforcements, thus suppressing the farce of the princes.
Although the capital city has been affected to some extent, the real misfortunes are still some princes and clans.
The older princes were so dead and disabled that they had no possibility of competing for the throne.
The saint finally woke up, and when he heard Prince Consort Guo mentioning these things in a "sad" tone, he was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
When he woke up again, he was shocked to find that half of his body seemed unable to move.
The imperial doctors made sad faces and expressed tremblingly: The saint was frightened and angry, his energy and blood attacked his heart, and he suffered a stroke!
saint:……
However, the bigger "surprise" is yet to come.
Just when the courtiers were worried and quarreling over the fact that "a country cannot live without a king for a day", Prince Consort Guo took out a suicide note from Princess Yongchang.
The letter made it very clear that when the saint and the Queen of Yuan gave birth to a son, King Li and the noble concubine made trouble.
In order to protect the child, the saint publicly announced that his legitimate son had died in infancy, but secretly sent the child to Princess Yongchang.
The eldest princess Yongchang felt sorry for her younger brother, and was also worried that her nephew would be assassinated in the palace, so she raised the child to feed her own son.
It happened that that year, the eldest princess Yongchang was not in good health, and was forced by King Li and other forces, so she had to hide in Zhuangzi outside the city to recuperate, and disappeared from public view for several months.
When she appeared in front of people again, she pointed at the baby in her arms and said it was the son she had just given birth to, and not many people doubted it.
Yes, this child is Guo Yaozong, the second son of the Guo family.
All the courtiers: ...This story sounds even stranger than a storybook.
And there are too many loopholes in it.
For example, King Li is dead. Why hasn’t Consort Guo revealed the mystery of Guo Erlang’s life experience in the past twenty years?
After all, according to the description in the suicide note, Guo Erlang was the legitimate son of Empress Yuan and the most orthodox heir to the throne.
Of course, Consort Guo also had an explanation for this: the saint wanted to balance the forces in the court.
The third prince, the fourth prince, and the sixth prince's maternal family are either from aristocratic families or powerful officials. If they attack each other because of the heir apparent, it will definitely affect the stability of the country.
All the courtiers: ...Why is it still not convincing?
so what?
Consort Guo had Princess Yongchang's suicide note in his hand, and the Queen Mother seemed to acquiesce.
The key is, Guo Erlang's appearance, Daman, this nephew looks more like a saint than his own son.
Sage: ...Ah ah ah, that’s nonsense, the person named Guo refers to a deer as a horse!
However, the Queen Mother sat in front of the couch, wiping her tears, and reminded her son with her eyes: if you recognize Guo Erlang as your "son", the saint can still be a recuperating emperor, and this huge country still belongs to Daxia.
If you don’t recognize it, haha, the Guo family has a hundred thousand Guo family troops, and Daxia will also change their surname to Guo.
The saint stared at the Queen Mother with red eyes. After a long time, he closed his eyes in despair.
Successful kings and defeated bandits have been like this since ancient times.
He should also be grateful that at least he could save his life and the country of Daxia after his failure.
He Tiantian: ...The plot seems to have changed a lot.
The male protagonist's biological father went from being a general with military power to becoming an emperor. Will the male protagonist and the female protagonist be able to have a love affair with each other in the future?
Subsequent facts proved that the power of the script was powerful. Even if the male protagonist changed from the heir to the prince, he still fell in love with the female protagonist at first sight and gave up the entire harem for her.
The story about sweet pets in a house has turned into a story about the only pet in the harem. It seems to be more romantic and sweet than the original script!
He Tiantian looked at the sky speechlessly.
Well, as long as the system doesn't judge that she changed the plot too much and caused the mission to fail!
If Little D had fingers and a nose, he would definitely press his nostrils leisurely.
It glanced at the hatred value record panel, tsk, the number above was almost approaching the 10,000-point mark.
The task requirement of 1,000 points has long been achieved. According to He Tiantian's points, she can be given a "super excellent" rating.
There was no way, Guo Erlang became the emperor, and Ankang's social status also increased.
Although she cannot be named the eldest princess, she is more noble than the real eldest princess.
As Ankang's good mother-in-law, He Tiantian was also successfully promoted to the rank of Lady of the State, a first-class title.
Not to mention the treacherous ministers, villains, and vicious female relatives outside, she can incite hatred at will. Even her son He Xi, who is willing to take advantage of her, has to treat her "annoying" mother as an ancestor.
"Son, when I die, don't bury me and your father together."
"I'm not afraid of disturbing him, but I feel that decades have passed and your father has been reincarnated long ago and has married many beautiful women!"
Before dying, He Tiantian did not forget to gather a handful of her son's wool.
Sure enough, before she pulled away from her soul, she heard a long-lost notification sound as she wished -
"Ding! He Xi's hatred value is 1!"
Dear mother, at such a sad time, you said such things. You are deliberately trying to embarrass your son, aren't you?!
"Ding! Collect 10,001 points of hatred and get three times the points, for a total of 6 points."
"Ding! I received a reward of 10,000 merit points, which can be exchanged for a junior treasure chest."
There were not many rewards this time, only two, but He Tiantian, who returned to the library space, was very satisfied.
"Open a treasure chest." He Tiantian snapped her fingers.
"Open the primary treasure chest!"
Little D tried his best to keep a serious mechanical voice, "Tiantian, congratulations, you won the lottery of 'Bai Wei's Embroidery Skills' this time!"
He Tiantian was stunned for a while, and it took her a long time to remember who Bai Wei was.
There was a maid next to Ankang who was said to be very good at female work. She and her little maid basically made Ankang's clothes.
He Tiantian: ...Okay, embroidery skills and so on, although they are a bit useless in modern times, they are not completely useless.
After all, He Tiantian doesn't know when she will travel back to ancient times. She can embroider and is good at female workers, which is also a very good means of survival.
"Tiantian, continue the mission or return to the real world?"
Little D asked in a stylized manner.
It thought about the tasks that Tiantian had completed these few times. The key was that the process was enjoyable enough. Logically, Tiantian should continue.
However, to its surprise, He Tiantian said: "Return to reality!"
Traveling through three novel worlds in succession, she has gained a lot of inner insights and learned many skills. She needs time to digest and settle...
