Chapter 115 Darkness Chencang 2

Chapter 115: Secretly traveling to Chen Cang 2

The current emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is King Jing of Zhou. When Yang Linguang entered the palace, he was playing chess with his favorite princess in the imperial garden!

The Eighth Princess is 16 years old, born smart and beautiful, and has his own unique insights into some court affairs. He often hits the center with one word. Although he is only 16 years old, he has already shown extraordinary political achievements, so he is deeply loved by King Jing of Zhou. King Jing of Zhou also long sighed why the Eighth Princess is the body of a daughter. If he is a man, then the position of the crown prince is the current position. King Jing of Zhou's love for the Eighth Princess made several princes jealous. The only thing that made them relieved was that the Eighth Princess was a woman. According to the law of the Great Zhou Kingdom, the princess could not inherit the throne. Even so, these princes usually deliberately approached her. Everyone knows that with the Eighth Princess's talent, if one of them ascends the throne one day, it would be of great help. Among these people, the eldest prince Zhou Xianwen is the eldest prince!

In the garden, the two were fighting on the chessboard in a difficult situation, and the eunuch Lin, who was watching next to him, kept laughing in his heart: If the Eighth Princess hadn't deliberately let the water go, the chess game would have been finished long ago! Now, King Jing of Zhou was holding a chess piece and thinking about how to play, while the Eighth Princess was smiling at his father!

At this time, a little eunuch hurriedly walked into the garden, came to the front of King Jing of Zhou, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Yang has something to ask for a meeting!"

"Oh!" King Jing put the chess piece in his hand back into the chess jar, feeling a little strange: I didn't hear anything he said when I went to court in the morning, but now there is something important. Did something happen suddenly? So he said to the little eunuch: "Xuan!"

The little eunuch quickly kowtowed and thanked her, and stood up and shouted loudly: "The emperor has an order to choose Prime Minister Yang Jin to see you!"

At this time, Eunuch Lin also asked the eunuch to take care of the eunuchs and remove the chessboard and replace it with two cups of fragrant tea!

After the eunuch issued the order, Yang Linguang hurriedly walked into the imperial garden, came to King Jing, kowtowed, and said respectfully: "My minister Yang Linguang will meet the emperor and the eighth princess!"

King Jing nodded and said, "Your dear, don't be too polite, please calm down!"

Yang Linguang said: "Thank you, thank you, Princess Eighth!" Then he stood up!

After seeing Yang Linguang stand up, King Jing said, "I wonder when my dear friend is rushing to find me?"

Yang Linguang looked at the many guards and eunuchs standing around him, looked puzzled and hesitated: "This!"

The Eighth Princess was so smart that she saw Yang Linguang’s face looked embarrassed and said, “Father, Lord Yang has something important to report, so that daughter will take her leave first!”

King Jing waved his hand and said, "Maoer and Eunuch Lin stay, and the rest of them will go down!"

The Eighth Princess and Eunuch Lin hurriedly said, "Yes!"

Yang Linguang didn't think there was anything wrong. The Eighth Princess was the emperor's beloved daughter, and this girl was smart, well-behaved and charming. She often asked him about some questions and was deeply loved by him, as if she was his daughter. Eunuch Lin accompanied King Jing when he was the emperor or the prince, and there was no doubt about his loyalty to King Jing!

After everyone around him left, Yang Linguang took out a thick stack of paper from his arms, held it with both hands and handed it to King Jing. After King Jing took it, he looked at it and handed it to the Eighth Princess partly!

At first he wondered what made Yang Linguang so cautious. After seeing some of the above contents clearly, he realized that the above was an idea that the Great Zhou Dynasty had never had in the founding of the Kingdom of China for more than 300 years, and the strange thoughts inside were unprecedented in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After looking at the Eighth Princess, she was full of confusion after receiving it. After watching slowly, her confusing face turned into surprise, and then she changed from surprise to surprise. Finally, she slapped the desktop and whispered: "Okay!"

King Jing raised his head, looked at the eighth princess with a happy face, and asked, "What do you think of this?"

The Eighth Princess raised her head and said, "The person who can come up with this method is definitely a good material. When it is put into the people, it is a profitable businessman. If it can be used for the court, it will be a good general! If the above methods are implemented, the impact will be very wide. Judging from his intention to establish a chamber of commerce, once it is completed, it will benefit many people, and our taxes will increase a lot every year! However, the implementation method is a bit domineering!"

King Jing nodded and asked Yang Linguang: "Is this one of the four schools who came up with this method? Or are the four schools together?"

Yang Linguang replied respectfully: "When you come up with the emperor, the person who came up with this method is Deng Long, the current head of the Deng family in Shangling! It is also him who resolved the grudges of the four families in Shangling!"

King Jing looked embarrassed. The four families of Shangling, as far as one is concerned, have a certain influence throughout the country. In order to suppress these old families, the court originally had a certain influence on the whole country, at the suggestion of some people, his father began to cultivate a group of emerging families more than 20 years ago to suppress these old families. By the time he became the emperor, the power of these emerging families was already very strong. He also thought of abolishing them, but he was opposed by many ministers of the court. In the end, it was left unresolved. The forces behind these families were some ministers of the current dynasty! Later, these ministers were afraid of destroying their interests and firmly opposed some new and beneficial government orders from the court.

Many effective government orders have been abandoned! In recent years, the national situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty has declined slightly, and the people in the north are ready to move. Although the annual tribute has not decreased, they have been recruiting soldiers and horses. Anyone can see their ambitions. However, a group of people in the court led by the Taishi Monk in the court turned a blind eye to this. Many times, border generals asked for an increase in border troops and horses were resisted by them! Now the alliance between the four families of Shangling is an opportunity on the one hand. If Shangling is the method, it will be a few years before Shangling will affect the whole country! When the national strength is enhanced, there is no need to worry about those people taking action!

In fact, when Yang Linguang gave him this, he already knew the above meaning! But he was still worried that if he really supported the four families, would the wolf be driven away and the tiger came again? Therefore, he was always unsure of his mind!

After pondering for a long time, King Jing asked, "Don't you know that Deng Long is willing to be an official?"

Yang Linguang understood what King Jing meant. To control the four families, he had to control the leaders of the four families. The best way was to control him in the court. However... Yang Linguan smiled bitterly and said, "When my younger brother first saw this person, he decided that this person was a talent, so he asked him to be an official. Unexpectedly, this person refused simply and neatly, and said that being a small official was bullied and being a first-rank official was annoying every day. It would be better to be his own eldest son!"

"Bastard!" King Jing slapped the table hard and said, "Is it better to be a rich young master in his eyes than his first-rank official in the court of Great Zhou?"

The three of them were startled by King Jing, but the Eighth Princess was clever and hurriedly said, "Father, don't be angry. In fact, the child agrees with this person."

"What?" King Jing looked at his daughter in confusion and said angrily: "Does he also view the current court like this!"

"Father!" The Eighth Princess smiled, "Don't be angry, listen to my daughter first. Now, many ministers in our court are the Grand Tutors and try every means to resist some of the Grand Tutors' decrees! If this person comes to the court and uses our people's knowledge and knowledge, he will soon be another Grand Tutor. And if he says that the small official is deceived and means that he wants to protect himself, he must surrender to another group first. Then, if he is a sesame small official and a small matter, he may be regarded as a scapegoat. As for the big official every day, you have to ask the Prime Minister!"

King Jing looked at Yang Linguang, while his prime minister, Lord Yang Linguang, smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, the princess's words are really not wrong."

King Jing sighed deeply, "What kind of small official is bullied? First-rank high-ranking official is bothering him every day, but he understands the meaning of it, but he is not willing to admit it in his heart!"

After a long time, King Jing asked, "What do you mean by my dear?"

Yang Linguang was so relieved that he finally asked for the idea, so he replied: "Your Majesty, the emperor means that the emperor supports them, and he will not review some memorials that damage their plans. Even if someone proposes them, we must suppress them. In just half a year, their plans can be implemented well! Moreover, the Eighth Prince also strongly supports them!"

"Uncle Wang?" King Jing said in confusion.

"Yes!" Yang Linguang replied, "He also said hello to some people in the court!"

King Jing nodded and said, "With Uncle Wang's support, it saved a lot of trouble. So what is he doing now?"

Yang Linguang's expression on his face was very strange. What was the Eighth Prince doing? He was accompanying the four families to choose Ling's twelve golden hairpins!
