After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

Whether brown rice is five or ten cents a pound, what does it have to do with high officials and nobles? What does it have to do with the emperor?

They will never be able to eat brown rice in their entire lives.

As for the fact that the price of mutton had increased from 40 cents to 80 cents, that did not stop them from eating mutton every day.

Although the people were complaining bitterly, they were still enjoying fine clothes and eating delicacies from land and sea.

In the magnificent palace, the young emperor held his chin and looked towards the north. They should receive the letter in a few days.

In the spacious Qinzheng Hall, there are huge copper basins in the four corners, filled with crystal clear ice cubes, which are emitting bursts of cold air.

The Qinzheng Hall, which was already much cooler than the outside, became even cooler.

The young emperor stretched out his hand, looked at the palm, then turned it over and looked at the back of his hand.

As the master of a vast empire, he controls the joys and sorrows of all the people in Kyoto.

When he is happy, the world is peaceful; when he is unhappy, the city is filled with dark clouds.

Anyone who dares to challenge this must bear his wrath.

The Minister of Revenue had been kneeling outside the Qinzheng Hall for half an hour before the young emperor let him in.

The Minister of Revenue knelt on his knees, kowtowed heavily, and then took out a memorial from his arms.

The eunuch took the memorial and handed it to the young emperor.

The young emperor opened it lazily.

The wording of this memorial was extremely humble. It first deeply reflected on his own mistakes, and then stated that the emperor had very legitimate reasons for building the observatory. It was an honor for the whole world to use the money from the national treasury to build it!

The young emperor threw the memorial on the table casually and said slowly: "My dear minister, please stand up. It is a great virtue to admit your mistakes and correct them. Leave the memorial here and go home first."

The Minister of Revenue bent over and backed away step by step until he left the palace. Then he straightened up, a look of loneliness and regret in his eyes.

How absurd is it to threaten the salaries of all the officials in the court just to build an observatory? !

The Minister of Revenue sighed silently. Duke Yun won this round again.

The TV series "Journey to the West" revealed the true colors of the government officials, and they didn't even bother to pretend!

The emperor was still complacent, thinking that he had all the civil and military officials under his control. Little did he know that everyone treated him as a fool and watched him jump into the pit that Duke Yun had casually dug.

When people read Journey to the West, they are reading about Duke Yun’s future plans.

He read Journey to the West and thought it was a journey to become an immortal. He's really unique!

……

The moon's shadow was everywhere, the birch trees were swaying, and the city of Kyoto was quiet.

"The dog emperor doesn't let us live an easy life, so we won't let him live an easy life either!"

"That's right, today we are going to be like Sun Wukong who caused havoc in Heaven! If anyone regrets it, it's not too late to quit now."

"No regrets! My family's land was forcibly taken away by him. There is no way to survive. I might as well risk my life!"

"In order to cultivate immortality, he actually kidnapped my wife and children, just to marry that drop of my heart's blood to make an elixir!"

The bronze-skinned man gritted his teeth and made marks on the map of Kyoto with red eyes. With every mark he made, the ferocious look on his face became more intense.

This map was produced by Baihua Printing Factory. It was originally intended to provide convenience to merchants who had just arrived in Kyoto, but now it has found another use.

Fifty men were standing outside the door, all wearing clothes of different colors.

Some looked like merchants, some like farmers, and everyone carried a package on his back.

The package was full of sulfur, saltpeter, kerosene and other things.

This was something they bought after spending several days working hard and saving every penny.

"Mr. Li said there will be strong winds tonight. After this is done, run as fast as you can. If you meet him on the road, pretend you don't know him. If you are caught, don't reveal a single word!"

"Don't worry! If I get caught, I'll bite my tongue and commit suicide!"

Because all the money was used to buy saltpeter and kerosene, people used water as wine to practice silently for themselves.

After leaving a puddle of water on the ground, everyone took a note.

It was written on it as a place, either a street market or a government office. If their strength allowed, they would like to burn down the entire palace.

But they are just people of the lowest level. Even if they risk their lives, they cannot hurt the dog emperor at all.

Since we can't hurt him, then let's hurt those who are accomplices to the crime!

Kyoto under the moonlight is like a sleeping tiger, ready to devour anyone at any time.

When the first fire lit up, the city of Kyoto woke up!

There were constant sounds of gongs and drums, water dragon carts kept passing by, fires broke out everywhere, and thick smoke billowed.

"There's a fire, come and put it out!" Someone smelled a burning smell in his sleep. Without even having time to put on clothes, he ran out to take a look, only to see flames rising into the sky in the distance.

The flames rising into the sky were like a monster, about to devour the entire Kyoto.

The village head, who was awakened by the noise, ran out shirtless and shouted to everyone to put out the fire: "If you have buckets, take them and let's go put out the fire!"

The weather was dry and most of the houses in Kyoto were made of wood. There happened to be a south wind today, which made the fire spread extremely quickly.

If this accidentally burned down my own workshop, wouldn’t all the wealth I had saved with great difficulty be destroyed?

The young and strong men picked up buckets of water and prepared to put out the fire.

The fire was quite far away, and the women and children might not be able to walk that far carrying buckets of water.

Someone squinted his eyes and took a look: "Huh? It looks like the Prince's Mansion is on fire!"

Everyone stopped and looked in that direction.

"It really seems to be the Prince's Mansion."

Everyone looked at each other, wondering whether to put out the fire or not?

At this moment, another fire started. This time, the Jinwu Guards were dispatched!

"It's the Kyoto County Government! A few days ago, my tenants were arrested and I went there to visit them!"

The Jinwu Guards who were dispatched did not have time to search for the thieves, and first joined the firefighting.

But it was obvious that the thieves came prepared. When the Jinwu Guards rushed to put out the fire in the Kyoto County Government Office, another fire broke out in another district.

The fire in this neighborhood scared the county magistrate who was fighting the fire in the county government office.

Grain for the royal supply was stored there, and although it was not his turn to manage it, as a local official, he could not escape the responsibility!

For a moment, the whole Kyoto was in chaos. The Jinwu Guards didn't know which fire to put out first, so they could only split into three groups and put out the fires one by one.

The people who were originally planning to put out the fire put down the buckets in their hands. Even though the head of the village urged them at the top of his voice, their steps were still as slow as a snail.

"Village head, the Jinwu Guards have all been dispatched. They will definitely be able to put out the fire. We won't be needed."

"We are so far away from them that it would be too late even if we rushed over."

Some people even went straight back home and said, "How could there be any thieves setting the fire? It was clearly a punishment from heaven! The king's uncle led people to arrest people everywhere just to make the elixir. How many families were destroyed because of this!"

"The magistrate of Jingdu County knew exactly what was going on, but he turned a blind eye when faced with the people who were wronged and were beating drums to complain."

"This is something that even God cannot bear to see! Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. It's not that there won't be any reward, but the time has not come yet!"
