Each item is a terrifying wealth.

These harvests alone are enough to easily supply hundreds of thousands of troops of Jingjixuan Mansion for decades!

Not to mention, this cleaning is not over yet!

The harvest of wealth and materials will be greatly supplemented, although this harvest is only temporary and cannot last.

However, with this terrifying wealth, it is enough to support the transformation of this ancient empire.

As long as the transformation is completed, money is nothing more than a number to a country.

In this regard, Li Xiu used to be full of confidence.

But now...

The originally bright future has been cast with a layer of shadow and a layer of unknown due to this upheaval.

If... once the sky collapses...

He... what should he do?

At this moment, Li Xiu felt an unspeakable sense of confusion for the first time.

Chapter 191 Wealth and Confusion

Chapter 192 Survival Under Oppression

In fact, even though the capital is now full of blood and rain, all the themes revolve around the assassination of the emperor.

Throughout the past and present, any assassination of the emperor undoubtedly left a strong mark in the history, and had a profound impact on the government at that time, and even the world.

This time, it was the same.

It is no secret that the emperor was assassinated and was dying.

If that great victory tore apart the unspoken rules of the imperial court, it completely disrupted the entire court situation.

As a result of this assassination and the death of an emperor, the situation that had originally overwhelmed the courtiers became complicated and confusing again.

If in the past, the emperor is dying, this is actually not a big deal for the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. If the emperor is changed, their lives will still be lived.

But now, the situation in the imperial court is completely different from before. In the capital, there is still a huge beast... that is Zhenbeihou!

Jing Jixuan Mansion, hundreds of thousands of troops, all under its control!

Everyone knows that this behemoth is the emperor's absolute confidant. He has always only listened to the emperor's orders and regarded courtiers as nothing!

The situation in the imperial court has long been out of their control because of this giant!

If the only restraint on this behemoth is gone...

This point, amidst the bloody storm, can't help but become a problem that many people worry about.

But the current situation, it seems, does not have any solution to this problem.

Even though the Son of Heaven was seriously injured, because of this assassination, his trust in the Marquis of Zhenbei became more and more dependent.

Now, it can be said that the power is fully entrusted!

In this way, many courtiers can't help but feel deeply dissatisfied with those treasoners.

It's fine if you haven't done your best, but you have made such a big mistake and such a big hidden danger!

As a result, today, the emperor has completely lost trust in them, completely relying on warriors, and now, the dynasty is not like the dynasty, and the country is not like the country!

For a while, even though Li Xiu hadn't taken any action, there was also an undercurrent of turmoil within the civil servant group.

Under the huge pressure brought by Li Xiu, the political situation seems to be evolving in a direction that Li Xiu never thought of!

The next day, Sun Chuanting, the left servant of the Ministry of War, impeached Xu Xianchun, Minister of the Ministry of War, saying that Xu Xianchun, without orders, partnered with the rebellious thieves to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the five cities... All kinds of evidence are all to illustrate the mighty Ministry of War Shang Shu, also enlightened and even planned this rebellion.

All of a sudden, with the appearance of this memorial, the peaceful civil servants and courtiers seemed to erupt in an instant with the surging undercurrent!

Impeach!investigation!

Some people of insight in the court, faced with the oppression of the current military front, the oppression of warriors facing the court, and worried about the future direction of the court, began to really seek change!

The Kodao speaker who had long been reduced to a sharp weapon of party struggle in the past was already a decoration of the three justices, and he also opened his fangs in a rare way following Sun Chuanting's impeachment memorial.

At this time, Li Xiu was still thinking about where to strike the knife, how to grasp the tacit understanding between him and the emperor, and many other factors.

When he learned that he hadn't made a move yet, and the civil servant had spontaneously started an internal cleansing investigation, he also didn't come back to his senses.

"When you bring people into the Three Law Departments, reserve your attitude and don't express your opinions easily, but you must be familiar with every case and every review."

After a long silence, Li Xiu slowly spoke up.

Zhao Wu hesitated for a while, then summoned up his courage and said, "Master Hou, let's just watch them torment themselves?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiu frowned, remained silent for a moment, and then waved his hands without saying anything more.

Seeing this, Zhao Wu didn't say any more, bowed his hands, turned around and left.

"Hypocritical, asking for trouble!"

Zhao Wu retreated for a long time, Li Xiu, who was silent on the spot, suddenly sighed, and then laughed at himself.

Seeking to survive and change is obviously what the civil servants of the imperial court are doing now.

The reason for all this, obviously, is that the oppression I gave them was too terrifying, forcing the civil servants who had always been at odds with each other to start forming a group, volunteering their votes, catering to the emperor, and seeking to survive.

This is something to be happy about.

After all, the civil servants who used to be high above and without any threat were forced to give up their internal conflicts under their own oppression, and began to cater to the emperor in order to survive and change.

Undoubtedly, it shows that the situation where the civil servants are superior and the military inferior, and the family of civil servants dominates is no longer the case, at least in this capital city, it is already a thing of the past.

This is also the situation that Li Xiu has always wanted to achieve.

Civil and military competition, checks and balances, is much better than civil officials fighting endlessly, and the parties fight against differences.

But now, the body of the Son of Heaven...

"There should still be time..."

Muttering to himself, at this moment Li Xiu, even himself, didn't know what he was thinking.

"Lord Hou, Mr. Sun, the left servant of the Ministry of War, pays his respects."

While thinking a lot, outside the hall, Wang Wu hurried over, holding a pair of greeting cards, and handing it to Li Xiu.

"Sun Chuanting..."

Hearing this name, Li Xiu raised his brows, turned his eyes away, and finally fixed on the greeting card that Wang Wu held up respectfully.

"Bring him here."

Li Xiu took the greeting card, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, outside the Zhenbeihou Mansion, Sun Chuanting stood alone, looking at the Zhenbeihou Mansion, which was regarded as a magic cave by the courtiers, Sun Chuanting looked a little dazed.

In fact, he and the Northern Marquis of Zhen are also the same kind of people.

He was just a minor military officer Ji Xunsi Langzhong of the fifth grade, in the capital and in the court, he was also unknown and there were not many traces.

It was only because the Hou Jin soldiers besieged the capital at the beginning, and he was lucky enough to get into the eyes of the emperor after a thorough strategy theory, so he skyrocketed all the way, from the fifth rank, and jumped several levels in a row, and now he is the left servant of the military department who is now the third rank.

And now the Minister of the Ministry of War was impeached by him and was involved in the rebellion case. It can be said that he was doomed to copy his family and exterminate his family.

Under such circumstances, in fact, he is already a real and unknown Minister of the Ministry of War!

It is also appreciated by the emperor that he leapt to a high position!

It's just that his grandson Chuanting is not well known, but this Zhenbeihou has made a lot of military achievements, his military strength is outstanding, and his power shakes the world!

In fact, he is different from other courtiers, and he has far more admiration for this Zhenbeihou than fear.

Relying on his own strength, he forcibly broke the rules that Daming had inherited for so many years, as if he wanted to rebuild the universe!

He could see it, and most of the courtiers could also see that the Son of Heaven and the Marquis of Zhenbei were like horns of each other, echoing from head to tail. If they kept going, it would be impossible to say that they could really level things up and create a brilliant Ming Dynasty again!

It's just that, unlike them, he, Sun Chuanting, has no deep interests involved, or in other words, between family and country, he can choose to harm his own interests...

And he is not the only one who can make such a choice!

His trip, to a certain extent, came on behalf of these people.

Rebellious cases can be investigated, people can be killed, families can be copied, and clans can be destroyed!

But... the situation must not completely get out of control...

Especially in today's unwell situation.

It's just, can you convince Zhenbei Hou, who is in power now and has righteousness and great power...

In his heart, he has no idea...

After all, human hearts are always unpredictable...

Chapter 193 Ben Hou Gives You a Chance

"Sir, please!"

While thinking about it, the door of the mansion opened wide, and Wang Wu walked quickly, leading respectfully.

Sun Chuanting tidied his clothes a little, took a deep breath, and walked into the Hou's mansion with firm eyes.

"Your Majesty, I have met the Marquis of Zhenbei!"

In the hall, Sun Chuanting bowed first.

"Being an official in the same dynasty, and being an official, this Marquis can't bear the words."

Looking at Sun Chuanting standing respectfully in front of him, Li Xiu looked indifferent, and uttered a word coldly.

"I don't know why Master Sun is looking for this Marquis?"

"Come here for the crime!"

Sun Chuanting also didn't have any twists and turns, he held his head high, stared at Li Xiu, and spit out these words.

"A reverse case?"

Li Xiu chuckled: "What does this matter have to do with the Ministry of War? It seems that it is not within the scope of Master Sun's authority, right?"

Faced with Li Xiu's single-handed attack, Sun Chuanting did not panic in the slightest, and replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Eat the emperor's reward, loyalty to the emperor, disorderly ministers and thieves, everyone gets to punish him!"

"The lower officials are deeply favored by the emperor, so naturally they are at odds with rebellious officials and thieves..."

Li Xiu frowned, turned around and sat down, and looked at Sun Chuanting with great interest: "Then tell me, how can we make a difference?"

Li Xiu's words caught his ears, and Sun Chuanting took a deep breath, remained silent for a moment, and then bowed his hands to Li Xiu: "Rebellious ministers and thieves, if you kill them, you will kill them, but I beg the Marquis to grasp the scale..."

"Grasp the scale?"

Li Xiu didn't give Sun Chuanting a chance to finish his sentence, so he stood up abruptly and sneered, "Is this your Sun Chuanting's inconsistency?"

"A group of rebellious officials and thieves, you actually said to grasp the scale, why, you, Sun Chuanting, also participated in this case?"

As far as this is concerned, Li Xiu lost interest and waved his hand: "If that's all it is, then Mr. Sun, please come back!"

Sun Chuanting raised his head suddenly, summoned up his courage and said: "Rebellious ministers and thieves, of course they should be killed, but when the army enters the city, the troops are too strong, killing countless people, it also arouses people's panic, we can't live all day long..."

"Under such circumstances, there is no one to deal with the affairs of the government, and the various ministries have been suspended for a long time. Besides, the capital is the center of the world, and the place of attention of the world. If things go on like this, the country will not rule the country. Please think about it!"

"Hahahaha!"

Hearing this, Li Xiu laughed loudly, his eyes fixed on Sun Chuanting in front of him, the laughter fell, but Li Xiu suddenly fell silent.

In this way, Sun Chuanting, who thought he was indifferent, was suddenly shocked. Under the deep gaze, he felt as if his whole being had been seen through by Zhen Beihou.

After being anxious for a long time, the oppressive eyes slowly dissipated, and Li Xiu's voice also slowly sounded: "This Marquis can give you this opportunity, but can you give me what I want? "

As soon as these words hit his ears, Sun Chuanting suddenly let go of his heart. He took a step back and bowed deeply to Li Xiu again:

"Your official, I will never let Lord Hou down, and I will never disappoint the Son of Heaven!"

Li Xiu didn't pay any attention to Sun Chuanting's salute in front of him, but just waved his hand to signal him to leave.

When Sun Chuanting walked to the door, Li Xiu's voice suddenly came from his ear: "Remember to go to the palace!"

"Don't worry, Lord Hou!"

Sun Chuanting responded loudly, with a demeanor and the like, but he no longer hesitated, full of divine light, and full of ambition!

"Sun Chuanting..."
