Chapter 24 Hole Cards

"Ah wow..."

The little figure climbed up the first step, smiled sillyly, and then raised his chubby face. There were four or five imperial steps above, and the sides of his little mouth bulged up, and he started the journey again.

The children were unaware of the solemn atmosphere in the palace and were just immersed in their own world.

In the Chui Gong Hall, all the ministers knelt down. In the entire hall, there was only one figure standing there, and only one voice continued to ring above everyone's heads.

"...Everyone is more or less aware that the Jurchens are powerful. I would like to elaborate further. In the Battle of Bianliang, our entire Wu Dynasty fought hard to defend the city and finally won a moment of respite. In this battle, they shattered the dream of the Wu Dynasty to be a great country in the Central Plains. You must also know this. The whole court is united in fighting against the Jurchens, and they are using their lives to fill the gap and block it. There are always those who are holding them back. Making trouble behind your back..."

Black steps were walking on the smooth floor, and the figure stopped in front of Tong Guan. In the dragon court, a little man wearing a very small dragon robe successfully climbed up the imperial steps and was competing with the tall dragon chair. His little mouth moved and he said "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally", and his upper body Lying on it, his short legs kept hooking up, then sliding down, hooking up again... His round little face turned red.

The little man gasped for breath, took a break, and made a sound of 'ahhhhhh', looking for help at the woman not far away. At this time, the voice below continued.

Bai Ning lowered his gaze and glanced at Tong Guan's head, turned around and walked back, and continued: "...You plead for Cai Jing, but he killed the emperor... Then our family will kill him, you guys What's the point of holding grudges one by one? So I am in a bad mood. You just need to listen. The late emperor will be buried today and will be carried into the imperial mausoleum. All the concubines in the harem who have nothing to show for will be buried with him. Do you have any objections? .”

All buried with him? Some of the people kneeling below still reacted and wanted to get up, but their official robes were pulled by the colleagues next to them. The person was suddenly startled and broke out in cold sweat. He quickly lowered his head. In his lowered eyes, a pair of Steps stood before him.

Bai Ning's figure had already passed through the crowd, and he looked at a kneeling official calmly: "Do you have any objections?"

The man's face almost touched the cold floor, his Adam's apple rolled, and he struggled to spit out two words: "No."

"very good."

The figure turned around and raised his fingers in the air, "Then the matter of His Majesty's funeral has been decided. Next, we should talk about the things outside the city, the return of refugees, the reconstruction of dilapidated houses, and the resumption of the paralyzed Yamen. This series of things is not here. Our family has jurisdiction, but it is within Dongchang’s sight. After today, our family wants to see you taking action instead of all kinds of excuses."

"The three ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of Industry, can you handle it?" Bai Ning looked at the crowd and could only say cold words.

"I will definitely finish it." The figure moved in the crowd.

Bai Ning sat back on the golden python chair and put his elbows on the armrests. "Know the situation." After spitting out two words, he turned to Tong Guan and said, "Now that the Jurchen has retreated, the Privy Council should also take action."

The military ministers were the first in line. When Tong Guan heard his name being called, he reacted and said, "Please give me your instructions, Lord Governor." Although he was half a soldier, he still stayed in the palace for a long time, especially as someone who was very familiar with Bai Ning. In addition, during the Northern Expedition, the Jurchens went south and committed a series of bad things. Naturally, he knew in his heart that if he didn't quickly join forces, he would be the second Cai Jing.

"It's time to collect the corpses outside the city, but don't burn them on the spot. The governor has specially marked a few points in various places. Send your soldiers to collect the remains of the victims and transport them there. Move quickly, as soon as possible If the epidemic grows, it will be difficult for you and me to correct this responsibility."

"My slave understands." Tong Guan straightened his upper body and cupped his hands.

"Well, Hai Qianhu will contact you later, and you can make arrangements in private." Bai Ning paused and waved for Cao Zhenchun to come over with the imperial edict, "In addition to telling you what to do next in today's discussion, I The governor still has to make some appointments.”

"Zhen Chun, give them a thought."

The old eunuch held the imperial decree and bowed: "Yes."

Under the gaze of all the officials, Cao Zhenchun took a few steps forward and unfolded the imperial edict. His voice was slow, hoarse and high-pitched,

"Edict of the Emperor, under the imperial edict: The Jurchen barbarians invaded my mountains and rivers, destroyed the country's land, and slaughtered my people. However, there were also loyal ministers and righteous men who fought for the country, spilled their blood in the dust, and supported the military to collapse the country. Therefore, the name Fuguan Sheng was promoted to the Military Envoy of the East Jingdong Route Army to control the area from Hejian Fufu to Shan.dong. Liang Yuancui and Huang Xin of Hejian Prefecture were promoted to the Military Military Envoy and Deputy Commander of the West Jingdong Route Army to control the area from Taiyuan to Yanmen. In the main road, Suo Chao promoted the governor of Jingzhong West Road to control the area from Zhending Mansion to Xiangzhou. In addition, the palace abolished the post of Fu Baolang in the province under the sect, and established the ceremonial supervisor, the eunuch holding the seal, the eunuch holding the pen, and the attendant. . Bai Ning, the governor of Dongchang, also serves as the eunuch in charge of printing, and Cao Zhenchun serves as eunuch Bingbi. There is a royal horse eunuch, with Tong Guan, envoy of the privy council, serving as eunuch in charge of printing. Yu Huatian serves as supervising eunuch. Together with the Ministry of War and the governor, the eunuch is jointly responsible for the military affairs. Therefore, this is the edict. , I would like to know."

The kneeling Tong Guan raised his head and stared at the figure sitting over there in disbelief. He felt that his ears had misunderstood. No one knew what he had done better than the person over there, but - how could it be possible?

"After all is said and done, do you have any objections?" Bai Ning waved his sleeves without looking at the surprised man over there, "If not, just retreat from the court."

Then he turned around and left from the side hall. In the dragon court, the woman behind the bead curtain picked up the little emperor who had just climbed onto the dragon chair, gritted his teeth angrily and walked down the other side. Zhao Yi looked at the dragon chair with a face full of reluctance. As if to say that he finally climbed up, he was forcibly carried away, and he cried in grievance in the woman's arms.

Cao Zhenchun looked at Tong Guan with a smile: "Congratulations, Privy Council, let's retreat from the court."

......

Under the corridor bridge connecting Chui Gong Hall to Zi Chen Hall, Cao Shaoqing looked at the figure in front of him with some confusion, "Master Governor, why do you want Tong Guan to sit in that seat..."

"Tong Guan has been running the army for many years and still has some prestige. Let him sit down for a while and hand over some things. Otherwise there will be backlash. Our family is too lazy to deal with them one by one. We will wait until the time is right. His crimes are enough to kill him. A hundred times." Bai Ning stood on the covered bridge, looking at the fish swimming in the pond below, "Just let him sit for a while..."

In Cao Shaoqing's eyes, the smiling figure suddenly solidified his smile.

An inappropriate voice sounded in Bai Ning's mind: "After the upgrade is completed, the system will be separated from the host. The characters learned by the host and extracted will not be changed... In addition, the system will extract the last round of characters. "

"You came at the right time." Bai Ning's forehead throbbed with veins.

The illusory turntable rotated rapidly, and then slowly stopped. Bai Ning didn't want to see who it was, so he listened to the voice prompting in his mind: "Extract the character: Old Man Qianzi, a former eunuch, currently hiding in the world, martial arts Extremely tall, over a hundred years old.”

"The former eunuch...you really dared to let people out randomly."

The final voice from the system came over: "A gentle reminder, you have to be careful."

Soon, there was no storm, the sound did not appear again, everything was as usual. The bright sun was rising, and two figures stood quietly on the covered bridge. Cao Shaoqing whispered cautiously: "The Governor...The Governor..."

"I'm fine, I just thought of something."

Bai Ning waved his hand, and all the colors in his eyes seemed to become a little pale.

At the east gate of Bianliang, a fast horse rushed past the interrogating soldiers and shouted: "I am Li Tianrun, I have something urgent to say to the Admiral of Dongchang——"
