The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 60 Invitation Letter
In a certain hall of King Yong's Mansion, several officials were filling out invitations.

In two more days, it will be the first day of May, Zhao Yanxun's pilgrimage, and these invitations will be sent to Longyou officials.

Generally speaking, as long as an invitation is issued to the prince of the feudal clan, the officials will give this face and come to watch the ceremony and congratulate him.

But Zhao Yanxun has a special status after all, so before sending out this invitation, Zhao Yanxun needs to be more cautious.

Walking in the corridor outside the hall, Zhao Yanxun was followed by two senior officials.

"You two senior historians, if we plan for the worst and the officials in Longyou are unwilling to cooperate with us, what should we do?" Zhao Yanxun asked in a heavy tone.

Don't look at the concubine and the women's wives talking and laughing at Yanyan, but the two long historians are as clear as Zhao Yanxun, and the possibility of things developing like this is very high.

What should we do if it becomes like this?The minds of Zhou Guan and the others were running rapidly.

Although there are many ways, there are always inappropriate points, so they have to think more about it.

But when Zhao Yanxun asked this question, he didn't want to hear their answer, but he said: "How about we prepare by ourselves, recruit young men, forge weapons, and hoard food?"

The two elders looked at each other. Although they didn't speak, they looked at Zhao Yanxun like looking at a fool.

"Your Highness, not to mention the prejudice against you in Longyou official circles, even other insignificant vassal kings, such presumptuousness will only lead to self-immolation..." Zhou Chengping said bluntly.

"Recruit young men and forge weapons. Then Tian Jingtong can directly say that we are going to rebel. At that time, the elite soldiers of Longyou Dusi will occupy the palace before the monsters arrive!" Guan Hetai said with a wry smile.

"Even if you just want to hoard grain, you will be charged with price gouging by the government. If you can't buy much grain... you will be forced to limit the purchase by the government!"

Restricted purchases, you can still hear this word when you come to another world in ancient times, Zhao Yanxun has no reason to feel affectionate.

Zhou Chengping said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the monsters have not exploded as you said, so what we do is unreasonable!"

Yes, when the last days erupted and order did not exist, no one would care what he did, but now the monsters have not erupted yet!
The imperial court of the Jin Dynasty was strong and strong, and the real power of the government at all levels was still there. As a little vassal king with no power and power, he could smash his palace to the ground as soon as he was close to the troops directly under the Longyou Dusi.

Don't doubt the means of the civil servants, as long as they work together, a single ancestral system can prevent the emperor from stepping down.

"It is said that... the frontier has recently sent back a good news?" Zhao Yanxun changed the subject.

Guan Hetai answered immediately: "I have heard about this matter, it's not a big victory, it just repelled a general attack of the Hu people and hurt some of their vitality!"

This disappointed Zhao Yanxun. If there is a truce at the border, more soldiers can be transferred back to the garrison, and then they can better guard against zombies.

At this moment, an official came out from the hall, saluted and announced, "His Royal Highness, all the invitations have been copied!"

Nodding his head, Zhao Yanxun said to Zhou and Guan, "Go and check it once, and if it's correct... then send it to each yamen!"

The two elders didn't say much. After bidding farewell to Zhao Yanxun, they walked into the main hall.

With no one around, Guan Hetai lowered his voice and said to the side: "Old Zhou, if no one responds to this invitation, His Highness really insists on going his own way, recruiting troops, and you and I really want to follow him...to make trouble?"

Although the border is now in chaos, the country is generally stable. Although they are convinced of the existence of zombies, Zhao Yanxun's preparations are still suspected of rebellion in Guan Hetai's view.

Guan Hetai sees it this way, so how many other people in the palace, including those guards...will follow King Yong without hesitation?
Zhou Chengping thought for a long time, and finally said: "I...don't know!"

…………

In the afternoon, all the officials in the major yamen in Yuanyang City received invitations from Prince Yong's Mansion.

The official pilgrimage, the etiquette system inside the feudal prince's mansion, officials can go or not after being invited.

Although it was all voluntary, the officials had to think more about Zhao Yanxun, the vassal king.

Lower-level officials have to ask their superiors for advice, but their superiors have to ask their superiors.

In the governor's yamen, Tian Jingtong was wearing an official uniform, sitting on a chair behind the case and closing his eyes to think.

As a big official in the frontier, more than half of Tian Jingtong's daily energy is not on the governance of Longyou, but on the capital and court affairs.

Guan'er did Tian Jingtong's job, and he thought more about returning to the center. Even if he couldn't be the prime minister, he would have no regrets in his life to be in charge of a department.

He just received the news that there has been an undercurrent in the capital recently, and he doesn't know what kind of struggle it contains.

This timing is also quite accurate, the situation at the border has eased slightly, and the internal struggle of the imperial court will be on the scene.

This will do no harm to the imperial court or benefit the world, but it is a good opportunity for speculative officials to usurp benefits.

And this also includes Tian Jingtong who is not in the center.

"My lord, Mr. He and Mr. Cheng are here!"

After hearing the report, Tian Jingtong opened his eyes, and then said, "Let them in!"

After a while, Cheng Wenguang, the chief executive, and He Zhengyang, the inspector, stepped into Tian Jingtong's lobby hand in hand.

There were chairs on both sides of the lobby. After the two saluted, Tian Jingtong motioned them to sit down.

"what's up?"

What else can there be? Cheng and He came here because of the invitation issued by Prince Yong's Mansion.

The officials below asked for instructions layer by layer, and finally all came to them.

This matter is no small matter, Cheng and He didn't want to get involved in right and wrong, so they found Tian Jingtong here.

"My lord, the invitations from Prince Yong's Mansion have been sent to all the yamen, and the two of us dare not preside over them, so please show me!" Cheng Wenguang said with a smile.

"This King Yong has come up with a lot of tricks recently, what do you think he means by treating guests here?" Tian Jingtong said in a deep voice.

"My lord, the last time the concubine gave a banquet, I chatted with Zhuo Jing a lot, and Zhuo Jing went back to the mansion and chatted with the officials..."

Looking up and seeing Tian Jingtong's calm expression, Cheng Wenguang continued, "According to my guess, King Yong wants to clear up the misunderstanding with us and be his Prince of Peace!"

"The one in the palace is too noisy, but this prince is different from his mother. After all, he was the one who proposed it!"

Nodding his head, Tian Jingtong looked at He Zhengyang who was beside him.

"The palace gave a banquet, and your wife also went, what do you think of this matter?"

The procurator He Zhengyang immediately said: "The views of the lower officials are the same as those of Mr. Cheng, harmony makes money...it's just human nature!"

In fact, Tian Jingtong also received the invitation. After listening to the opinions of the two subordinates, he said: "In this case, let the officials who received the invitation go as soon as they have time!"

"I heard that this King Yong is generous, and those who go there must have a good gift!"

Seeing Tian Jingtong smile, Cheng and He also laughed.

"But the three of us, don't join in the fun, let's push it off with our busy schedule!"

After thinking for a while, Cheng and He nodded, this is indeed the safest way.

It not only expressed the goodwill of the Longyou officialdom, but also kept a proper distance, the best of both worlds.
