Chapter 91 Prime Minister Goes to Prison
No matter how exciting it is, what benefits can Li Xian get from such political changes? Also, once the Great Xia Kingdom collapses, how should Li Xian develop? These are things that must be considered!
You should know that many of Li Xian’s past plans were planned according to the “ten years” period. △
"How many years does Daxia Kingdom think can it last?"
Xu Ren smiled bitterly, "No need to predict it. The current situation is like a pile of gunpowder, and a little spark can detonate. Even if the message comes tomorrow that a certain county will become independent, it will not be surprising.
However, the name of Daxia Kingdom may last for five or six years. It is the state of being in name only."
Li Xian took a deep breath, "The situation has evolved to this point. I have just gotten on the right track and haven't had time to consolidate it yet! I'll attract everyone, and we will discuss the future development route."
The meeting lasted for several days; in the past few days, Li Xian readjusted his development strategy; in addition, he reduced the production of glass, colored lights, etc., and increased the prices of items that could be used in wars such as bearings, sea soul silk, and stainless steel.
In addition, Li Xian launched a new product - gunpowder! Since the enemy already existed, Li Xian was ready to sell gunpowder all over the world. Moreover, low-level gunpowder weapons such as muskets began to be sold. The interrogation of the prisoners of Cai State also obtained the source of gunpowder - from a counselor named Xiang Bowen, who is said to be one of the most powerful countries in central Yingzhou.
The gunpowder incident once again sounded the alarm for Li Xian - this fairyland has existed for countless thousands of years, and many things have accumulated enough, and what is lacking is only a little spark. Once guided, just a little spark can detonate the entire fairyland!
After the meeting, Li Xian was preparing to convene representatives stationed in Anyang to demonstrate gunpowder.
When Li Xian was busy here, the capital of Daxia was even more mourning - more than 27,000 soldiers died, leaving the capital in a mess; and Fu Minghui, as the general of the army, was even written by the Wang family and the three princes, asking for severe punishment.
The court was in chaos. Prime Minister Ouyang Wubing, Li Yulong and Yuan Yong three first-rank officials stood in front, and officials from behind stood in turn. Fu Minghui, who had been removed from his armor, stood alone in the center of the court.
Above the court, there was His Majesty the Emperor with a sick face. As a master of the Golden Elixir Stage, the Emperor was actually sick! When he heard that after his defeat in the war, His Majesty the Emperor was in a state of destruction, his meridians were chaotic, and now his face turned pale and premature aging - this is the most frightening state for practitioners, the five declines of heaven and man!
The so-called five declines of heaven and man means that the foundation has been broken and the state of weakness of the world is seen; it can be seen that this incident has hit the emperor. Perhaps the biggest blow is despair - the country is collapsed but powerless!
"Cough cough..." His Majesty the Emperor coughed a few times, and actually spit out a few mouthfuls of black and yellow blood.
"You are all satisfied." His Majesty the Emperor's voice was hoarse and powerless, and his plain voice revealed a state of silence. It was not that the emperor knew the situation of the Daxia Kingdom, but he had wanted to revive it, so he adopted Li Xian's strategy of promoting the country through industry and commerce; however, he had just improved, but he was destroyed.
The ministers below were speechless and no one dared to answer.
After a long time, His Majesty the Emperor spoke again: "Fu Minghui is innocent. It is a great achievement to be able to bring back three thousand soldiers under such circumstances. He rewarded 10 medicinal materials for a hundred years.
Fu Minghui obeyed the order."
"I'm here." Fu Minghui's voice was loud, with anger towards the villain and gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor.
The emperor coughed a few more times before speaking: "Rebuild the Imperial Army immediately and expand it to... Alas... do your best."
"I will give my all my strength!" Fu Minghui said in a powerful and powerful way.
The emperor looked at Li Yulong, "Li Yulong."
"I'm here."
"Repair the imperial tomb! You are responsible for this matter."
"yes."
"Just..." The emperor looked a little embarrassed, "Li Aiqing, the treasury is empty now, look..."
Li Yulong didn't blink a moment, "Your Majesty, it is my honor to supervise the construction of the imperial tomb. I dare not ask too much for it. It's just that the construction of the imperial tomb is huge. I'll transfer my dog son Li Wei back to take charge."
Li Wei is Li Xian's second brother, staying with the eldest prince. Now that the eldest prince has done a huge mistake, he has to transfer it back quickly.
"Accurate."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Yulong retreated, and His Majesty the Emperor turned his eyes to the prime minister again, and his calm words told the most cruel order: "Prime Minister, what about that border general He Yaogong? Capture him and destroy the clan!"
Ouyang Wubing was so scared that he was about to destroy the family of military generals at this time, which would completely disrupt the Great Xia Kingdom. Without thinking, he said: "Your Majesty, although He Yaogong was wrong, he also stopped the 100,000 troops of Cai Kingdom from moving south, and his merits and demerits were offset..."
The emperor's dragon power was still there, and he directly interrupted the prime minister's words: "Come on, take the prime minister down and take it to the heavenly prison!"
Then His Majesty the Emperor turned his attention to Yuan Yong, "Taiwei, capture He Yaogong's family and destroy the clan!"
Yuan Yong hesitated for a while before he had to grit his teeth and respond: "Yes."
Finally, His Majesty the Emperor looked around and said, "Crown Prince Xia Xu lost his virtue and abolished the position of crown prince. The second prince Xia Shu was appointed as the crown prince."
Everyone dared not object. Didn’t they see the prime minister just now being imprisoned for saying a fair word? Wang Chuan was also anxious, but he did not dare to speak. His Majesty the Emperor is obviously in a state of rage, so it would be better to have his tail in his arms at this time.
Seeing that no one objected, His Majesty the Emperor snorted coldly and walked out of the court; the officials then dispersed, but they also began to plan their own plans.
The emperor began to decline in the five worlds and began to build the imperial tomb; the crown prince was replaced, and the prime minister was imprisoned. One thing after another stimulated the decaying body of the Great Xia Kingdom. The border general He Yaogong even fled overnight and fled directly to Cai Kingdom. However, the whole family did not run away, and his head was chopped off at noon that day.
When the Great Xia Kingdom was in turmoil, the Cai Kingdom was not feeling well; the wars that attacked Anyang twice in a row cost the soldiers and generals, and all the losses were elite troops. Especially for the second expedition to Anyang, the Imperial Guards were also used.
When Cai's Prime Minister Yan Ze'an returned to the court with preliminary opinions on negotiations with Li Xian, Cai's court also exploded.
His Majesty the Emperor of Cai glared at the Prime Minister, "The Prime Minister is really good. After the defeat, he also asked for peace. He thought so thoughtful."
Yan Ze'an sighed in his heart, knowing that even if he was full of words, he couldn't explain it clearly. The matter was really dramatic. He had lost the battle on the other side, but he won a big victory on the other side. The imperial guards of the Daxia Kingdom in the South lost their armor and only more than 3,000 people fled.
After defeating the battle, he almost destroyed the elite of Cai State. However, others won the battle and almost wiped out the elite of Daxia State. This is too big a gap! This makes the prime minister very incompetent! No matter what the trick is involved, the result is no longer changed!
Emperor Cai threw the letter of intent to negotiate submitted by Anyang in his hand aside and looked at Prime Minister Yan Ze'an blankly, "My Prime Minister, don't you say anything?"
"I have nothing to say." Yan Ze'an's business is stable, and he seems to have no concern at all about his current situation.
"There is nothing to say? OK, very good! Come and remove the prime minister's seal and press it to the prison for trial."
Prime Minister Yan Ze'an's face was still calm. "Wait, I have something to say."
"Oh? Do you want to defend yourself?" A man standing in the same ranks as Yan Ze'an sneered.
Yan Ze'an turned his head, looked at the person contemptuously, and then turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, before leaving, I have a few words to say. Anyang's potential is definitely beyond imagination, if..."
"Yan Ze'an, are you committing guilt for yourself?" The person who interrupted just now continued to mock him.
Yan Ze'an looked at this person, his tone was filled with slight sarcasm: "Huang Fu, Cai State will definitely decline in your hands!"
Huang Fu smiled, "Yes, yes, I, who wins the battle, will definitely ruin Cai State."
Many ministers around laughed, laughing so hard that they were falling back and forth.
The emperor was also stimulatingly laughed by Huang Fuhe's witty words, but he still ordered Yan Ze'an to be removed from his post as prime minister and appointed Huang Fu as the new prime minister.
