Stunning beauty

"Buddhist kingdom, have you retreated?"

Three days later, the big business capital.

The battle report from the southwest border came, the Qingdeng Buddha was seriously injured, and the Buddhist country retreated. The rare victory made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the people in the city very happy.

Since the outbreak of the war, Dashang has been defeated again and again, especially in the northern border, where the Mobei army has driven straight in, which has brought great pressure to Dashang.

Dashang needs a victory too much to inspire people and morale.

The Southwest King, at the moment when Da Shang needed victory the most, finally won a victory for Da Shang.

"Heavenly Sword Ruoye, well-deserved reputation."

The imperial palace, Shou'an Hall.

Emperor Shang heard the detailed battle report from the southwest border, and a flash of light flashed in his gloomy eyes.

Originally, he thought that the Heavenly Sword was only delaying the Qingdeng Buddha at most, but he didn't expect that the Heavenly Sword Ruoye seriously injured the human Buddha head-on.

It was a pleasant surprise.

In this way, the southwestern border of Dashang was able to breathe for a while.

The Li family finally came in handy once.

Shang Huang looked at the chess game in front of him with a thoughtful look on his face.

Now, there is one more thing that needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

Army pay!

To fight, you need military pay.

Dashang, for many years, disasters have been happening all over the place, and with the tide of cold winter, the harvest of the people has dropped sharply, and the tax revenue has also been greatly reduced.

The national treasury is no longer as full as it used to be.

Although it is still barely able to hold on, it can't last for too long.

The big merchants are fighting on multiple fronts, almost half of the big merchants are fighting, and the military pay they need is so huge that no matter how solid the foundation is, they can't bear it, so they must find a way to solve it.

Increasing taxes may be able to temporarily solve this problem, but the sequelae are also obvious.

If the tax is too heavy, the people's dissatisfaction with the imperial court will intensify, and it may even lead to civil unrest.

Such things are not uncommon in the past dynasties.

Not worth the candle.

Regarding the matter of military pay, we must think of another way.

Shang Huang held the sunspots in his hands, and stared at the chessboard with an increasingly dignified expression.

On the chessboard, surrounded by black pieces, white pieces are in jeopardy, and the white piece is exactly the character "Li".

To move, or not to move!

Shang Huang held the sunspot in his hand, and there was hesitation in his eyes.

Mobilizing the Li family will undoubtedly solve the problem of military pay to the greatest extent, but the troubles will also be endless.

Over the years, there have been more and more people who have interests involved with the Li family, regardless of the locality or the imperial court, and if it affects the whole body and the Li family, there must be great resistance.

Moreover, the Li family itself is a huge force. On the surface, there are not a few masters who are involved with the Li family. In the dark, no one knows what kind of power the Li family is hiding.

After so many years of investigation by the imperial court, they still found nothing. It can be seen that the Li family's intelligence network is sophisticated.

It is not easy for the court to move the Li family.

I'm afraid that as soon as he had a thought, the Li family had already heard the news.

If the Li family can't be destroyed with the momentum of thunder, the Li family will definitely not sit still.

Although the death of the fish may not necessarily break the net, it is enough to get Da Shang into big trouble.

Nowadays, there are frequent foreign troubles in big businessmen, and there can be no more civil strife.

Thinking of this, Emperor Shang clenched his right hand tightly and crushed the sunspot in his hand without falling.

The Li family can't move yet.

However, how to solve the problem of military pay if the Li family is not moved?

The Changsun family, the Shangmeng, and the Yin's bank are all powerful people behind the scenes. Their influence in the Great Shang Dynasty is deeply rooted, and they are also closely related to the court. It is also not easy to get them to hand over their money.

Moreover, their financial resources are much different from those of the Li family. If they move, it is better not to move.

Difficult!

Shang Huang looked at the word "Li" on the chessboard in front of him again, and the streamer flashed in his eyes.

Li Yuan.

East Court.

Li Ziye moved a small bench and sat down, holding a plate of watermelon in his hand.

Then, while watching the excitement, be a melon-eating crowd.

It's cold this year, and the watermelons are not sweet anymore.

In front of him, Bai Wangyu faced the 36 Tiangang masters alone with one sword and one sword. In less than half an hour, everyone fell down again.

but.

The progress of 36 Tiangang masters is obvious.

From less than a quarter of an hour at the beginning, it can last for half an hour now, and the growth rate is amazing.

This is largely due to Little Red Riding Hood.

After all, Little Red Riding Hood has thousands of years of martial arts experience and insight, and can see the shortcomings and shortcomings of the 36 people at a glance. With a little guidance, the 36 Tsing Yis can benefit a lot.

After half an hour.

Bai Wangyu walked out of the Tiangang Immortal Formation.

"sit."

Li Ziye patted the small bench beside him, grinned and said, "Eat a piece of watermelon to quench your thirst."

"Ah."

Bai Wangyu nodded, and really sat aside, picked up a piece of watermelon and started to eat it.

If the disciples of the Confucianism sect saw that their elder brother was eating melons in public so disregarding his image, their jaws would probably drop in shock.

"The battle report came from the Southwest King City. Senior Tianjian severely injured the Qingdeng Buddha."

Li Ziye said happily, "The old monk is not very good, his name doesn't match his name."

Although Senior Tianjian was also seriously injured, fortunately he was rescued by the Southwest King in time, and his life was not harmed.

"Heavenly Sword did create a miracle."

Bai Wangyu said calmly, "The five realms are absolutely top, and there are three flowers on the top, but unfortunately, they are solid and not solid, they are higher than the five realms, and they are only half a step away from breaking through the five realms."

"It's not a pity."

Li Ziye said with a smile, "It's the best result to defeat the old monk and save his life. Thinking about it, even if the old monk has such a treasure as the light of the world, it will not take two days to recover completely. God's business, Da Shang, I can finally take a breather."

Bai Wangyu heard the words of the young man beside him, sighed softly, and said, "This war should never have happened. Winter is coming, and the countries in the world are still consuming each other. When the winter comes, how can we have the strength to fight against it? .”

"The truth, you and I understand it, and those who raise troops also understand it. Unfortunately, if resources are not distributed equally, there will be wars."

Li Ziye said calmly, "From the standpoint of Mobei, if I were the maharaja of the eight tribes of Mobei, I would not be able to watch the people freeze to death. In war, there is no absolute justice. Everything is just a standpoint." Just different."

"Brother Li's vision and mind are always so broad." Bai Wangyu said softly.

"Broad fart."

Li Ziye said unhappily, "That's not a threat to my Li family. If anyone dares to rob my Li family of rice, I will hack him to death!"

The voice just fell.

Li Ziye's heart throbbed violently for no reason.

So suddenly, without warning.

Li Ziye was stunned, and subconsciously looked to the north.

what happened?

At the same time, outside the North City Gate of the Great Merchant Capital City.

A woman in a light blue dress came and went straight into the city.

A woman with an ordinary appearance looks ordinary, no matter her clothes or appearance, she is no different from normal business people.

Taixue Palace, East Campus.

The woman had just entered the city, and in the wooden house, there was a warning from the heavenly book.

One page was opened, and the face of the woman was reflected on the broken ancient scroll.

"It turned out to be the capital of the Great Merchant City."

Kong Qiu casually glanced at the heavenly book, a look of astonishment appeared on his old face.

This girl is really courageous.

Aren't you afraid of dying under the destiny?
