Chapter 74: Capturing the Yangzhou Thief Saint

About half an hour later, Zheng Ying came back with a bitter look on his face: "Your Majesty, I never saw the Map of Mountains, Rivers and State in the East Palace."

"Haha, if you haven't seen it before, it means it's gone. From my Manna Palace, that villain carried it to the black market!"

"Okay! It's really a great act of filial piety!"

Emperor Jing Xing was really angry.

He has always known that the prince is ridiculous. If this happened directly, although he would be angry, he would not be so angry.

After all, as an emperor, Emperor Jing Xing is still very tolerant.

But unfortunately, what this traitor originally said was to frame it!

I even said that he had a filial piety, but the result was good, his filial piety turned into a filial piety!

Under such a strong psychological gap, and because Emperor Jing Xing was already annoyed, he naturally became furious.

"The "Mountains, Rivers and Sheji Map" symbolizes the mountains and rivers and the country that I have worked hard for, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!"

"This traitor has nothing to do with stealing, but he wants to steal this one!"

"I thought I would learn something from Li Changkong, but I didn't expect that in the end, the situation is still easy to change, and the nature is hard to change!"

"Go down and order the prince to be confined in the East Palace for one month!"

"Anyone who dares to step outside the East Palace within one month will be severely punished!"

Hearing this, Zheng Ying immediately knelt on the ground and said with a trembling voice: "No!"

Emperor Jing Xing was usually kind to others, but if he got really angry, it would be the emperor's wrath!

The emperor's wrath means that if one person does not do well, millions of people will be killed!

How can we not treat it with caution?

"Your Majesty, the theft of "The Map of Mountains and Rivers" will happen sooner or later. What should we do when the time comes?" Zheng Ying said.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing Xing fell silent.

Zheng Ying is right, the "Mountains and Rivers She Ji Tu" is already eye-catching on weekdays, and there are also many eunuchs and maids in the Manna Palace. People come and go, and if they disappear, they will be discovered sooner or later.

At that time, we can’t just say that the prince stole it and sold it, right?

In that case, how can the royal family retain its dignity?

So... I have to think of a way.

"What's your opinion?" Zheng Ying, the chief internal manager, was professional at handling dirty work, while Emperor Jing Xing was very good at listening to other people's opinions, regardless of his or her background.

"Your Majesty, there are rumors that there is a thief in Yangzhou who has great martial arts skills and steals everything."

"It is said that people have come to Qiandu City in recent days. There are even...there are even rumors that the thefts from Yangcheng Hou Mansion and Dingguo Duke Mansion are related to this thief."

"Some people even claimed that this boy was so bold that he wanted to come to the palace to steal."

"In this case, why don't we just go with the flow and claim that the "Shanhe Sheji Tu" has been stolen by this Yangzhou thief?"

After hearing this, Emperor Jing Xing's eyes lit up and he said, "In this case, should the imperial court send experts to arrest him?"

"Yes, after catching him, it would be best to have him executed in front of all the people!"

"In this way, the people will feel that even if the Yangzhou Pirate Saint's martial arts is so powerful, he is still just a grasshopper in front of the court. The majesty of the royal family has only increased!"

After Zheng Ying finished speaking, he stood with his hands down.

Emperor Jing Xing nodded and said: "That's very good. I order Ji Ling, the President of the Royal Forest Army, to leave immediately for Yangzhou to capture this thief!"

"Within one month, if you are alive, you will see people, and if you are dead, you will see corpses!"

"Go and deliver the message."

"promise!"

After Zheng Ying left, the Manlu Hall fell into silence again, and Emperor Jing Xing resumed the boring work of reviewing memorials.

When he picked up the last portion, his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

This was written by Zhang Xun. The general meaning is that the large number of people are afraid of the sea and the epidemic. In just ten days, Li Zhufeng was afraid that he would not be able to recruit more than 30,000 people, so he came to intercede, hoping to extend the time a little.

Although Emperor Jing Xing frowned, he still approved the memorial.

After all, there are many storms at sea, the food is not fresh, and epidemics are common.

Not to mention killing people, but looking at all the countries in the world, which country’s people are not afraid of the sea?

Chen State is surrounded by sea on two sides and a river on one side. Logically speaking, the navy should be quite strong.

But the result is that it is shockingly weak.

Why? Isn’t it because of this reason?

Not to mention training the navy, we can't even recruit soldiers willing to join the army, and we can't even assemble a navy. How can we become strong?

This is a common problem in all the countries in the four directions. Let alone Li Zhufeng, a small Wuling Marquis, even he, the Emperor of Daqian, may not be able to solve it.

If it can really be solved, the Daqian Navy will be more than twice as powerful.

I am afraid that I can gain absolute control of the sea in the East China Sea, beat Chen Guo to death, and even bypass Chen Guo and provoke Nanliang.

To put it bluntly, if one day the Beiyuan cavalry goes south in large numbers, intending to invade the Central Plains.

If Dagan really can't be defeated by then, with the navy around, he can at least escape from the sea and seize the territory of Chen State or Nanliang, which is an extra way of life.

After all, most of Beiyuan's soldiers were landlubbers, so it was impossible to chase them to the sea.

It can be seen that for Daqian, to a certain extent, the navy is even more important than the army.

But how difficult it is to strengthen the navy!

Emperor Jing Xing looked at the dark night and sighed: "This is a long-standing evil!"



The next morning, East Palace.

After learning that he had been grounded for one month again, to be honest, Liu Yu was not at all panicked.

Not only was he not panicking, he was even a little lucky that this matter finally came to light.

Before, his father had been kept in the dark and he was still worried. Now after the Dong Chuang incident happened, he can sleep much more peacefully.

It would be much more boring to play spy killing without Lao Li and the others.

But when he thought that he would earn a lot of money soon, he became happy again.

When the time comes, my father will know his true capabilities!

What does it mean to look at each other with admiration after three days of separation? Doesn’t this refer to me, Liu Yu?

But soon, he lost his complacency.

Because the voice from outside the East Palace came in: "Your Majesty is here!"

Liu Yu suddenly trembled, couldn't sit still, and almost fell off the chair.

To be honest, Emperor Jing Xing did not look fierce, and was even extremely benevolent.

It's the kind of person that ordinary people will feel good about when they see him.

Liu Yu, on the other hand, has been bold since he was a child.

He heard about Zhu Ben poking a hornet's nest, but he scoffed because he had done this before when he was ten years old.

However, for such a master who was fearless, when he saw the slightly soft face of his father Jing Xingdi, a middle-aged man, his heart seemed to twitch and he was extremely scared.

Probably, this is the legendary bloodline suppression.

"Tell me, what did you do with the money from the sale of "Shanhe Sheji Tu"?" Emperor Jing Xing rarely had the patience to sit down and have a good talk with Liu Yu.

He even wondered if there was something wrong with his previous education methods that made the prince so naughty.

He was a reflective emperor.
