The villain of Xianwu world

Chapter 337

"By God, the emperor's edict said: Liu Ting, Li Rubai, Juniper, Ma Lin, Geng Yu, the commander-in-chief, hereby!" Three months later, Shenyang City in Liaodong.

At this moment, Gu Xiao has left Hetuhala and returned to Shenyang City with the army. At this moment, he and some other senior generals who have won the battle are kneeling in front of an old eunuch with a strange face, listening respectfully. The imperial decree brought by the old eunuch from the capital.

A large group of generals who fought bloody battles and finally won the battle were all full of joy after being notified of the imperial decree from the capital, but after the imperial decree had just been read for a short period, these generals came to receive the decree There is no one who can still laugh.

No!It should be said that there is still such a person who can laugh!
This man's name is Yang Hao!

Because in terms of the imperial decree, he, the civil official supervisor, has once again gained both fame and fortune, and the black hat on his head has grown bigger again.

The content of the imperial decree was very long, and after the old eunuch finally finished reading it, among all the people, except Yang Gao, none of them could laugh anymore.

Because the content of the imperial decree is very simple: that is to say, although they won the battle, they burned, killed and looted. Therefore, the emperor decided to give them no reward or punishment.Yang Hao, an old bastard, has an extra title of prince and grand master, but they are all ordered to return to their defense zone at a certain time.

Gu Xiao knelt down, listening to the scolding specially written for him in the imperial decree, his heart suddenly became cold.

Emperor Wanli is certainly not a Mingjun!
This point is very clear in his heart.Just because Emperor Wanli was able to treat Zhang Juzheng like that after the death of his teacher Zhang Juzheng, it can prove that he is mean, ungrateful and cold-hearted.It's just that Gu Xiao doesn't care what kind of person Wanli Emperor is.Because in his opinion, the emperors are all the same, and it is basically impossible to find a good person.

Even Tang Taizong Li Shimin, who was praised by countless people, is not in a mess in terms of personal morality!
But what he couldn't accept was that Emperor Wanli would treat him like this!
Because in the imperial decree specially told to himself, Emperor Wanli obviously already knew what kind of power his four divisions of Fenglin and Huoshan had.Now, he has become a bare-handed general soldier, and he probably returned to Yansui alone.

Gu Xiao understood why Emperor Wanli would do this, because although this old guy had mixed countless sands into his army, he was still worried, because such an army that could fight would naturally have to be placed in the army. He only fits in his own hands.

It is no exaggeration to say that Gu Xiao has now become the one who lost the most.

Because anyone with a brain can see that he is the number one hero who won the battle, but instead of getting the slightest benefit, he even lost his soldiers and horses.

You must know that although the current Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point where soldiers are generals like it was during the Chongzhen period, almost all the generals who lead the army will focus on cultivating a team of servants for themselves, that is, the real elite.At that time, Li Chengliang was able to be his own king of Liaodong in this Liaodong because he had [-] family members in his hands!

Now, although Gu Xiao didn't focus on supporting his family, he still felt a little hard to accept the loss of the elite that he had single-handedly pulled out.Because of this, he doubted whether he would be able to return to Shaanxi alive, because Geng Shaonan, who was alone, must be liked by many people in the world!
Could it be that the Ming Dynasty is really doomed?Gu Xiao stood up from the ground with mixed feelings, and said to himself.

He knew very well that even if he really killed all the wild boar skin father and son, and their bodies were all shattered, it didn't mean that the Ming Dynasty could turn the crisis into peace.The biggest problem of the Ming Dynasty is not foreign troubles, but internal troubles, that is, financial bankruptcy!

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, because he himself hated merchants so much that when he determined the national household registration, there were military households, medical households, and peasant households, but the only ones that did not have were merchants.Zhu Yuanzhang, who didn't know how to do business at all, thought that by doing this, he could completely wipe out the businessmen and prevent those illegal profiteers from appearing.

But he didn't know that by doing this, he created the best breeding ground for collusion between officials and businessmen!Because since merchants do not have a household registration, it naturally means that it becomes very difficult to collect their taxes. As long as they take shelter under those officials who have tax exemption rights, they can immediately make a lot of money.

After 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, almost all the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty have become the spokespersons of those big businessmen, especially the big businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River. The famous Donglin Party itself represents the big landlords and The interests of big businessmen.It can be said that the problem of the Ming Dynasty was that the rich relied on the protection of officials to evade taxes, while the poor could only bear taxes from various sources.

Almost ten years later, the Shaanxi peasant uprising was forced out by the idiot Chongzhen Emperor himself.

After Emperor Chongzhen deposed the Wanli and Tianqi dynasties and imposed commercial taxes on the south, the court immediately couldn't make ends meet.In order to collect taxes, this fool actually came up with the idea of ​​imposing heavy taxes on the hungry people in the north who were already relying on tree bark and grass roots to satisfy their hunger under the flickering of the dead experts of the Donglin Party. Half of the hungry people in the north died.

If this financial problem is not resolved for a day, the Ming Dynasty will not be able to turn the crisis into safety.Because with the help of the gang of dead experts in the Donglin Party, even if there is no one Jianlu, they can support another Jianlu to come out, and there is no cure for the chronic disease of the Ming Dynasty at all!

Gu Xiao understood that Emperor Wanli thought that since Jianlu had been wiped out, he, a brave general, would be useless. He wanted to deal with him, who might develop into another Li Chengliang general. Gu Xiao immediately despaired of the Ming Dynasty.

At night, in Gu Xiao's room.

He is packing up.

Through Jin Yiwei's relationship, the memorial he sent to Emperor Wanli has been rejected, and Emperor Wanli scolded him in the secret decree, accusing him of being militaristic and useless, and ordered him to return as soon as possible From now on, Shaanxi will keep its law and order.

Gu Xiao is really confused now, should he continue to be an official in the court?Because even if he has the talents of being able to write a pen to calm the world and martial arts to determine the world, but he still feels powerless to reverse the fate of the Ming Dynasty, which has long been rotten to the bone.

Instead of being an official in this court, it is better to find a way to cultivate a Qin Emperor and Han Wu!This was the thought that suddenly came to Gu Xiao's mind after receiving the secret decree from Emperor Wanli.

At this time, Gu Xiao understood that although Emperor Wanli scolded him a lot between the lines, he did not intend to kill him.Most of the imperial decrees and secret decrees appeared under the persecution of those civil officials.Moreover, he knew that the power of civil servants and scholar-bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty was too great. Since they could influence Emperor Wanli's will, if the scholar-bureaucrat class could not be destroyed, the world of the Ming Dynasty was doomed to survive. Knowing that he will be hostile by the civil service forces, it is simply impossible to promote reform.

It's just that he still can't make this decision, after all, so far in this world, there is really no such Qin Huang Han Wu!

"What are you doing?" At this moment, a crisp voice suddenly sounded from behind Gu Xiao, waking him up.

Gu Xiao turned his head, and saw Lian Nishang in light yellow clothes standing behind him, and asked puzzledly: "Didn't you say that you are going to see your senior brother? Why are you back?"

Before the expedition this time, Lian Nishang said that he had a senior brother and went to meet this person specially.At that time, Gu Xiao thought of Yue Mingke, the disciple of Huo Tiandu, the master who practiced neon clothes, who later became Master Huiming, the master of the Seven Swords of Tianshan Mountain, but he couldn't figure out how this person would appear here.

To know.Since Yue Mingke is Xiong Tingbi's counselor, if Xiong Tingbi doesn't know where he is now, then this person should still be studying in Tianshan, how could he appear in Liaodong.Moreover, from Lian Nishang's tone, it seemed that he and Yue Mingke had been in contact for a long time.

However, after thinking about the incident in Shuzhong, he immediately understood.

Lian Nishang said charmingly: "My senior brother is not here, I don't know where he went."

"I've heard about it." Speaking of this, Lian Nishang suddenly remembered another thing. When she came back this time, she had already heard about the treatment that these heroes received after winning the battle and annihilating the Jianlu "What are your plans for the future?"

Gu Xiao's face froze when he heard the words, and he said after a while: "I don't know, I can only take one step at a time!"

Hearing Gu Xiao's words, Lian Nishang's face darkened immediately.

To be honest, after hearing this unexpected news, she still felt a little joy in her heart, because in her opinion, this man, in this way, should give up on the corrupt court, even if he did not rebel, he would You should choose to leave. .But after hearing what he said, Lian Nishang couldn't help but feel a little haze in her heart. At this moment, Lian Nishang thought she understood the man's thoughts in front of her, but she still underestimated this man's enthusiasm for power and love She can't change this man's stupid loyalty to this utterly corrupt dynasty!
