I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country

Gu Yuanbai's temples rose and fell, and he almost cursed the word "presumptuous" right now.

What's even more incredible is that he could hear the meaning of education in Xue Yuan's tone?

What a piece of shit!

Gu Yuanbai said coldly: "Let go of your hand."

The little emperor's soft flesh was deep in his palm, and it was extremely comfortable to touch through his clothes.Xue Yuan let go of his hand obediently, not forgetting to prove his innocence, pointed to the hornet not far away and said: "My lord, I am afraid that the hornet will sting you."

Gu Yuanbai's expression softened slightly, "I'm not going to take this as an example."

After half an hour, this absurd and lively situation calmed down.Those who were stung by the hornet all went to the imperial hospital. Among the guards, Gu Yuanbai originally thought that they were all tall and strong, so it would be fine if they were stung, but the one who reacted the most was his loyal chief guard.

Gu Yuanbai directly gave the chief guard a holiday, allowing him to rest at ease.When will it be ready, and when will it be worthwhile.As a result, the only one who accompanied Gu Yuanbai personally was Xue Yuan who came through the back door.

But as long as Xue Yuan is obedient, he is extremely useful.

And now, Xue Yuan is really happy to listen to Gu Yuanbai's words.

Gu Yuanbai said that he would starve King Qi for three days, then he would really starve King Qi for three days.In the past few days in court, some courtiers have been hinting at Gu Yuanbai, implicitly asking how King Qi is doing now.

Among them, the most anxious one, and the one who had to be the most patient not to ask, was naturally Yu Shi Taichung Cheng.

Yushitai, one radish and one pit, those who want to enter must also pay great attention to their background experience, and pay attention to their experience after entering.

The longer you stay inside and the more people you attend, the clearer you will be.Yushitai is like a bottomless pool of muddy water, calm on the surface, but in fact the mud is stirred up inside.

But this is still the supervisory agency of the central government of the country, but what is the use of a supervisory agency that Gu Yuanbai can't get his hands on?

Doctor Yushi is getting old, and it's time to retire. Gu Yuanbai originally planned to use this to do something, but now, Gu Yuanbai has a better choice.

In the court hall, there were still some clan members who were worried and frightened by the emperor's cruelty. They spent a lot of money and wanted to entrust some officials to ask how King Qi was doing.

This is a very lucrative business, just asking, and there is no taboo, why not accept the money?

Therefore, when they were in the court hall, these officials who dared to ask about King Qi only found out that no one in the court hall spoke out except for the middle-level officials who had received money like them.

Each eye looked at the nose and the heart, as if they hadn't heard their words.

At this time, these officials with neither high nor low official positions and neither good nor low IQ realized that something was wrong.

Why didn't a high official stand up?With the methods of those clan relatives, it should be easy to win over high officials, right?

It's not right.

When they asked about King Qi, the Holy Majesty was still smiling, and even said a few words in a gentle voice.But after they came to court, their colleagues who were close to them on weekdays avoided them.

They were left at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

Sometimes, I am not afraid of being stupid or greedy for money. What I am afraid of is that I am not sensitive to the political wind direction.It’s fine if you’re not sharp, don’t talk if you’re not sharp!

The youngest son of Prince Qi's family has a good reputation since he was a child, and the name he used to surround Qi Palace was "cleaning out the rebels". As a result, you foolishly asked the holy majesty in the court hall if the purged rebels were okay?When will it be released?How did you eat and sleep?Many people are concerned about this rebel army, so please ask Shengshang Rende to let the rebel army go as soon as possible?

Fuck you, go away, don't drag us down!

In the Xuanzheng Hall, Gu Yuanbai welcomed General Cheng and his deputy.

The Forbidden Army cooperated with the clan ministers' offices and discovered many spies who had been buried by Lu Feng.There were men and women in these spies, and some of them were originally servants of these people's houses, but because they were bribed by Lu Feng, they became Lu Feng's people.

These people were excavated one by one, and now, with the "gift" and Yushi Taizhongcheng, only Chu Wei's father Chu Xun has returned.

If Chu Xun doesn't come back for a day, Gu Yuanbai has to wait calmly.

After the report was over, General Cheng couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, since the matter of King Qi may be related to Yu Shi Taizhong Cheng, why didn't you order him to be arrested?"

Gu Yuanbai said: "I have other plans."

General Cheng couldn't figure it out, but he stopped asking, and chose to trust the Holy Majesty with full authority.

Gu Yuanbai was not in a hurry, and the imperial army followed the emperor in no hurry.Just following the orders of the Holy Majesty, the spies caught in the palace of the clan and the ministers were put in prison. Some of these people were resentful, some were desperate, and more people were crying and shouting, begging the Holy Majesty on their knees. Surround them with your life.

But no matter how begging for mercy, Gu Yuanbai will not soften his heart.

They won't be transported away now, they still have a chance to survive.All in all, the Holy Majesty said, everything will be discussed after Chu Xun returns.

But King Qi had to endure without eating until Chu Xun came back.In fact, on the second day of starvation, King Qi, who had never experienced such a struggle before, was so hungry that he had no strength.

Gu Yuanbai rewarded his sumptuous, delicious meal with meat and vegetables to the jailer. The jailer devoured it hungrily, and his mouth was filled with oil. When King Qi watched him eat, he felt even more uncomfortable.

On the third day, King Qi succumbed to the pain of hunger. With a straight face and a weak voice, he ordered the jailer: "Bring me the rice."

Why use your own body to embarrass Gu Yuanbai?

Gu Yuanbai is ruthless, and the king of Qi is also a little timid of Gu Yuanbai now, but the majestic king of Qi, can't the two jailers compare to him?

Gu Yuanbai should have calmed down after locking them up for such a long time, right?

King Qi didn't know, but he was afraid, and when the feeling of fear disappeared, the aloof mentality that had been cultivated in the pampering for more than 40 years stood up again.

But the jailer who listened to King Qi's words ignored him at all, and continued to eat meat with a big mouth.

And King Qi has already decided to go on a hunger strike, so what can the sons of King Qi do?

King Qi came up with a dozen or so men who watched the jailer eat with gusto, and felt hungry. On the third night, some people finally couldn't take it anymore.They took their own meal, carried King Qi behind their backs, and hungrily devoured their own meal while hiding in a corner. Even if someone was being tortured next to them, they couldn't stop them from gorging on the meal.

It looked like a pig with no manners, and several sons of King Qi who were older than the Holy One were crying while eating.

Most of them were implicated by their father, who was overwhelmed by ambition. At this time, they did not dare to blame the Holy Majesty, so they thought uncontrollably, why?

Why can't King Qi obediently be a prince of peace?

They have no big ambitions, they just want to live a life of wealth and honor for a lifetime.But now, King Qi's most beloved youngest son who wants to be promoted to the throne stays in the palace to offer food and drink, but they are going to be imprisoned, why?

The smell of food was heard in the prison, King Qi's weak eyes widened, he moved to the prison door with his last strength, and shouted angrily: "What are you all eating?!"

But his son didn't answer him.

Resentment took root in his heart, his stomach was beating like a drum after being hungry for two and a half days, because seeing his father's stupidity, these descendants of King Qi would be more sober to understand what they couldn't do.

If you do, you won't be able to eat.

After Gu Yuanbai finished handling the government affairs, the governor of the capital sent a message, saying that Chengbao Temple in the suburbs of Beijing had returned many temple fields to the imperial court. information.

Such trivial matters do not need to be handed over to the Holy Majesty, but Chengbao Temple is a royal temple, and the governor is a little uncertain about paying attention.

When he heard the news, Gu Yuanbai raised his lips and smiled, and threw the memorial on the table in a very relaxed and happy manner, humming an out-of-tune tune, and said: "The abbot of Chengbao Temple knows how to read people's eyes." .”

Xue Yuan looked at his smiling face from the side, and thought to himself that I'm fucking looking at you, let alone a monk.Who made you look good.

His Majesty played with suet white jade from the table, his face was stained a little rosy, his happy look was so contagious that the people around couldn't help but curl their mouths.

Gu Yuanbai stood up, walked out from behind the table, loosened his muscles, bones and wrists in the hall, and said: "Those who return to vulgarity, let them return to vulgarity, I will have room to use these people soon. As for Sitian, let the governor Go back."

Immediately, someone went down to do errands, Gu Yuanbai stretched out his hand, and the wide sleeves slowly fell from his forearm, revealing a small section of white wrist bone and bright yellow undershirt.He rubbed his wrist, and thought to himself, Mr. Chu, now you are the only excuse left.

There you are, all the rest can start.

Chengbao Temple had just returned the temple fields to the imperial court, and before he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard that the imperial court had rejected these temple fields.

The abbot of Chengbao Temple's eyes were dizzy, and he barely maintained the demeanor of an eminent monk, "My lord, why don't you accept these temple fields?"

Fu Yin himself couldn't figure it out, so he smiled and said nothing, and politely invited the abbot of Chengbao Temple out.

This smile and silence scared the abbot of Chengbao Temple.

Chengbao Temple is a royal temple, and the entire hilltop is the temple fields of Chengbao Temple. These fields do not need to be taxed, and the monks in the temple do not need to pay all kinds of money to the court. This kind of life is too rich.But because of such abundance, the abbot felt trembling all over when he thought of the Sanwu extermination of the Buddha.

Those who come and go to Chengbao Temple are all clan relatives and dignitaries, because those clan relatives were frightened by Gu Yuanbai, they often come to Chengbao Temple to pray to Buddha for peace of mind.

From the mouths of these clan dignitaries, the abbot also knew something.

The emperor can attack his clan, let alone monks like them?Now that the imperial court does not want his temple land, the abbot is terrified after thinking carefully. After returning to Chengbao Temple that day, he counted the temple land in the temple again, and got angry. He only left enough acres for the monks in the temple to eat, and the rest [-]% Gave it to the court!

However, the second dedication was also rejected by the emperor.

The abbot of Chengbao Temple, who came out of the yamen again, changed his eyes from dull to dignified. When he returned to the temple all the way, he ordered in a deep voice, "Bring a pen and paper."

The little novice sent a pen and paper, and the abbot took a deep breath, stabilized his trembling hands, and wrote an article.

At the beginning, I praised the benevolence of the Holy One, and under the guidance of the Buddha, Chengbao Temple asked the Holy One to accept [-]% of the temple fields offered by Chengbao Temple, so that these temple fields can also contribute to the common people of the world, so that I can fully appreciate the mercy of the Buddha.After writing these words, the abbot's hands trembled even more, and he continued to write the last paragraph cruelly.

Chengbao Temple calls on the compassionate temples all over the world to donate the temple fields in the temples together.

The abbot almost sent this article down the mountain with tears in his eyes.

He could almost imagine how many people would grit their teeth and curse him to death after this article was read by temples all over the world.

How much people in the world praise him, how much the temples that are passive in their interests and under the oppression of public opinion hate him.

The only one who has benefited and is not eye-catching is probably the court.

When Chengbao Temple sent Sitian over for the third time, Gu Yuanbai looked at the letter sent along with him, opened it, and burst out laughing.

The person who came to report asked: "Your Majesty, are you still refusing this time?"

"Since ancient times, it has always been three words and three concessions." Gu Yuanbai shook his head and laughed, "I have no plan to do anything. The abbot of Chengbao Temple has messed up himself."

Many dynasties have used Buddhism to rule people's minds. The existence of temples and Buddhism has many benefits. Will it be unreasonable?

It can only be said that the abbot of Chengbao Temple frightened himself.

It's not good to continue to let people think about it.Gu Yuanbai said: "I talked to the abbot in private, and said that I am very satisfied with the article he wrote."

With these words, even if Terada is returned this time, Chengbao Temple must be able to settle down.

Gu Yuanbai is now more concerned about the white cotton than the hundreds of acres of temple fields.

A few days ago, Kong Yilin presented cotton seeds. Gu Yuanbai had never grown this thing before, so he transferred Kong Yilin from the Imperial Academy to study this small seed with officials from the Ministry of Industry.

He vaguely remembered that cotton was planted in March and April, but Gu Yuanbai didn't know the details. Although it was a bit late now, it was possible to catch up.

If cotton can really be planted this year, people's livelihood, military affairs, how many lives can be saved with this thing.

Gu Yuanbai came to his senses for a moment, Tian Fusheng added tea to the cup, and said, "My lord, the people in the stable just came with news that Hong Yun kicked another person."

Gu Yuanbai returned to his senses, and smiled wryly when he heard this: "This thing entered the palace to consume me."

"Go, go and see it."

A group of people went to the stables.In the stable, Gu Yuanbai saw a little mouse holding a fruit and gnawing aside, he was amused, he never thought that Xue Yuan really brought this little mouse to Hongyun to play with.

It's just that Hongyun doesn't seem to be interested in mice.

The bloody horse was well taken care of, but it didn't want to be harnessed, and it only had a rein on it. As soon as Gu Yuanbai walked in, the horse, which had a little sense of humanity, roared at him.

With bright red hair, Gu Yuanbai was fascinated, and immediately turned to look at Xue Yuan: "Take me to ride a horse."

Xue Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord, have you recovered from your injury?"

Gu Yuanbai: "Just listen to me."

Xue Yuan listened to him.He pulled out the horse, without pedals, it was difficult for Gu Yuanbai to turn over.The palace attendant beside him was going to move the stool, Xue Yuan thought it was troublesome, so he directly hugged the little emperor's waist and put him on the horse.

After Gu Yuanbai got on the horse, Xue Yuan turned over and sat behind him, holding the rein in his hand, "My lord, are you riding the horse?"

Gu Yuanbai leaned back and said comfortably, "Let's go."

With a flick of the whip, the Maxima ran out like the wind.

Gu Yuanbai's robe and hair fluttered, Xue Yuan looked down at him, the corners of his lips twitched, his sharp eyebrows and eyes were exposed in the gust of wind, and after riding the horse with the little emperor for a while, he thoughtfully slowed down up the speed.

"How does your Majesty feel?"

Gu Yuanbai "hissed" and said, "Splendid."

It's just that the body is too weak, and there is still a burning feeling on the inner thigh.

Xue Yuan heard his "hissing" and raised his hand to rein in the horse.Although I thought that the little emperor might be injured, after I really saw it, I still felt a little delicate.

How can it be so tender?

Xue Yuan found a shady place with no one there, and asked Gu Yuanbai to get off his horse.Before getting on the horse, Tian Fusheng handed Xue Yuan a bottle of ointment, just in case His Majesty would be injured.

"My lord," Xue Yuan knelt down on one knee in front of Gu Yuanbai who was sitting, and separated Gu Yuanbai's legs, "I have to give you some medicine."

Gu Yuanbai looked at him amusedly: "Shiwei Xue, are you going to give me the medicine yourself?"

Xue Yuan said slowly: "Your Majesty, I brought you out for a gallop. You are injured, so I naturally feel panic in my heart."

Gu Yuanbai sneered, not believing that he would really be so obedient, so he lifted his robe and said, "Take the medicine."
