Great Wei scholar

It's okay to go to the Sutra Pavilion to read more books.

"Okay, Shouren, take a good rest these few days, I'm afraid the Taiping Poetry Fair will not be able to go on, and the Ten Kingdoms University will not be in the mood to go to the banquet."

"You have a good rest. Also, pay attention to Hua Xingyun, he is definitely not as simple as the surface, understand?"

Chen Zhengru made an extra reminder.

Tell Xu Qingxiao to pay attention to Hua Xingyun.

"it is good."

"Chen Ru walk slowly."

Xu Qingxiao did not send him away, but watched Chen Zhengru leave.

After Chen Zhengru left.

At this moment.

Great Wei Jingdu.

In Wen Palace.

In a secret room.

An extremely indifferent voice sounded slowly.

"The plan failed."

"He revealed."

"Let him be Zhu Sheng, do one last thing."

sounded.

Soon a young voice responded.

"Yes."

Chapter 139: A sharp sword, deterring the government and the public, a hole card, fearing the world

Yemi sky.

The talents of three thousand miles come from the east, so the whole capital of Wei Dynasty looks a little weird.

Talents hang on the east and west sky domes, reflecting like day, but the north and south are like night, with bright stars, which seems a bit strange.

Great Wei court.

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The empress sat quietly on the dragon chair.

In the hall, a black shadow appeared in it.

"Your Majesty, according to the secret investigation of the Heiyun Pavilion, there has been a change in the Wen Palace of the Great Wei Dynasty. There are 27 literati who often gather in the Wen Palace before the Taiping Poetry Meeting, plotting other matters."

"This time for His Majesty's birthday, a large number of unidentified people have poured into the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty. Among them are the shadows of the Baiyimen, and there are spies from other races exchanging information with each other."

"Big Wei Jin merchants, Anhui merchants, Gan merchants, Huai merchants, and Beijing merchants also had frequent contact with foreign countries during this period, especially Shanxi merchants, Hui merchants, and Jiangxi merchants, who had close transactions with Antu state-owned businesses."

"Water, oil, vines, and iron ore business are the most frequent. According to the spy report, Antuguo gave the three major merchants extremely high prices, so that the three major merchants hesitated. They didn't want to offend Wei, but they didn't want to give up the business either. .”

"A few days ago, the Tuxie Dynasty even sent people to the Seven Great Immortal Sects to send various congratulatory gifts in exchange for some secret techniques, which involved the secrets of the first rank."

"The Chuyuan Dynasty is searching for Zhu Sheng's handwriting, and at the same time, the Chuyuan Dynasty is a Yuanwu idiot, and it is very likely to break through to the first-rank martial arts within ten years."

Sombra's voice sounded, with an extremely calm tone, telling some extremely important information.

Heiyun Pavilion is the intelligence agency of the Great Wei, and it has placed some important places.

Great Wei has two intelligence agencies, one is Jinyi Tianwei, which is in charge of supervision in various places, and the other is Heiyun Pavilion.

Jinyi Tianwei is an intelligence agency on the bright side, while Heiyun Pavilion is an intelligence agency in the shadows. It has placed many spies and undercover agents to serve His Majesty directly.

It's just that Heiyun Pavilion fell in the time of Emperor Wu. At that time, the world was in turmoil, and Heiyun Pavilion was also instigated by many people. Although they all served the royal family, there were not many people who belonged to them, only a small part.

This is also the reason why she founded Jinyi Tianwei. She needs a more powerful intelligence agency to focus on vassal kings from all over the country, Confucian officials of the Great Wei Dynasty, including civil and military officials.

It's a pity that after Jinyi Tianwei appeared, all forces wanted to get involved and stepped in one after another. As a result, although Jinyi Tianwei was established and there were a lot of people, there were not many people who were truly loyal to him.

The empress knew what kind of power she needed, one with good strength, and unconditional loyalty to herself, and would not be bought by others.

But is there such a person?Almost none, just like Jinyi Tianwei, who obviously created it by himself, but in the end?Either the duke arranged for a son to go in, or the king of the county arranged for his own men to go in.

The name is to expand the strength of Jinyi Tianwei, but this kind of talk is okay to deceive the child, to fool her?is it possible?

An organization that is not completely loyal to itself is a waste.

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The empress looked extremely calm, and she watched the latter.

The other party was silent and waited quietly.

After a long time, the empress' voice sounded.

"I, I know."

When the empress' voice sounded, the latter spoke.

"Long live Your Majesty, my lord, take your leave."

The latter figure disappeared.

In the hall, she was the only one left.

But at this moment, a voice sounded.

"Your Majesty! Gu Shangshu has sent an urgent memorial, please read it, Your Majesty."

It was Zhao Wan'er's voice, she was holding a memorial, and she walked gracefully with an outstanding figure.

After receiving the memorial, the Empress opened the memorial.

Then fold it up again.

"Your Majesty, what did Gu Shangshu say?"

Zhao Wan'er pinched the empress's shoulders and asked at the same time.

"Let Beijing merchants donate silver."

This is not a big deal, the empress said directly, while closing her eyes, enjoying the short-term relaxation.

"Then does His Majesty agree?"

Zhao Wan asked curiously, this kind of thing is nothing, you can ask, it won't annoy His Majesty, even His Majesty would ask her what she means in normal times.

"There is no need for Jingshang to donate the waterwheel project. Even if Jingshang donates, it will have no effect."

"Someone will reply to Gu Yan later, this matter is not allowed."

The Empress replied.

Let Jingshang donate?How much silver can you donate?

1 taels or 10 taels?It's an amazing 100 million taels, so what?They donated 100 million taels, and you still have to give them benefits. In this way, it is completely unnecessary.

She was a little curious, why did Gu Yan make such a request?There is no need.

"The servant understands."

"However, Mr. Gu said that this matter was brought up by Xu Qingxiao."

Zhao Wan'er reminded that this was not a matter brought up by Gu Yan, but by Xu Qingxiao and Xu Shouren.

"Xu Shouren proposed?"

The Empress slowly opened her eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhao Wan'er nodded and said.

"Yes."

The next moment, the empress spoke calmly and agreed directly.

Zhao Wan'er: "..."

Although she didn't know why the empress directly agreed to Xu Qingxiao's idea, but what Zhao Wan'er understood was that Xu Qingxiao is now the most popular person in the Wei Dynasty.

It is reasonable for His Majesty to do so.

"The servant will send someone to inform Mr. Gu later."

Zhao Wan'er spoke slowly.

The Empress nodded, and said nothing more.

It's just that three things kept appearing in her mind.

Naturally, the waterwheel project was the first major event, followed by the Wen Palace, and finally the Northern Expedition.

These three things are the choices and crises that Dawei is facing now, and the collusion of the three merchants cannot escape her discernment.

It's just that she has no way to solve this matter.

Tougher?The people behind the three merchants are not idle people. If they dare to be tough, all kinds of voices will be heard. Besides, this matter is unreasonable.

After all, businessmen are looking for profit, buying and selling, and Da Wei can't afford the price they sell, and then they do it directly, who will agree?At least the group behind Sanshang will not agree.

And all countries see it, Wei is a dynasty, every move is watched by the world, any wrong thing will attract the scolding of the world, and a right thing is often not publicized.

After all, there is still no military power. If all the military power is in his own hands, then all things will be nothing.

As for the matter of the Great Wei Palace, it is also a troublesome matter, which is a signal.

Mental oppression is sometimes more terrifying than the oppression of national strength. No matter who wins the rebellion of the vassal kings, the Great Wei is still the royal family after all.

And if the palace of Wen was really separated, it would not be a trivial matter. If Wei's bone marrow was taken out, unless there was another saint, otherwise, it would be no less than seven more Northern Expeditions for Wei.

This involves a lot.

But the good thing is that there are a group of upright Confucian scholars in the Great Wei Wen Palace. With them, it is quite difficult to separate the Great Wei Wen Palace, at least if I have not done anything wrong.

They have no chance.

It's nothing more than some sabotage. For example, the Taiping Poetry Club deliberately released water, hoping to rely on the great talents of the Ten Kingdoms to suppress the literary world of Wei, so as to create opportunities and create a negative impact after he became the throne.

She has encountered this method too many times, so she doesn't care at all, as long as it doesn't hurt the bones.

As for the Northern Expedition, this matter is still early, so there is almost no need to think about it.

"I still need a group of loyal people."

After all, the empress closed her eyes again. She needed a group of people who were truly loyal to her, and she had to guarantee that these people would only be loyal to herself, and it was absolutely impossible for them to be loyal to others.

It's a pity that this kind of person is hard to find, and it doesn't make much sense to cultivate dead men, because she doesn't need dead men, what she needs is a group of sharp swords that wander among the court and the people.

As for whether she will hurt herself, she doesn't care about it. She can become an emperor without so many scruples. Loyalty ranks first and ability ranks second.

The rest doesn't matter.

After about a quarter of an hour.

The court of Great Wei sent Gu Yan's paper back, and it has been reviewed and approved.

It's Mao time.

After Gu Yan got the papers, he didn't even participate in the morning court, and went to write the donation notice himself. In less than half an hour, he read it repeatedly, and when he was sure, he asked the household department to print and copy it and paste it in the capital.

After everything was done, Gu Yan couldn't help but look at the slightly lit sky, his eyes were filled with curiosity and worry.

He was curious about what method Xu Qingxiao would use to resolve this matter.

I was also worried that Xu Qingxiao might do something wrong.

And this time.

Inside Shouren Academy.

Xu Qingxiao was also thinking about some things.
