Go to ancient times and engage in construction

When Daniu's loud voice came into the hall, Chu Chaohui's body suddenly became stiff, and the color of his face changed from red to white.Before he came in, he specifically told Ma Ren, who was on duty outside the hall, that no one who came to Zheng Yuming tonight would let him go, and that he would wait until tomorrow to discuss the big things.

"Hey, why does Daniel seem to be arguing with the guard?" Zheng Yuming put down the booklet in his hand, and listened to the sound outside.

"Hmph, what an inexperienced guy." Chu Chaohui hummed resentfully, didn't the guards have weapons?Why don't you hack this ignorant guy to death!

Zheng Yuming turned around when he heard the words, with a half-smile on his face. "Da Niu is upright and will not quarrel with guards for no reason."

"I just want the two of us to stay quietly for one night." Chu Chaohui walked behind Zheng Yuming and hugged him, burying his head on Zheng Yuming's neck.

Zheng Yuming patted Chu Chaohui's hand to comfort him: "Chaohui, we will have a long life in the future, and from now on... well, from now on, we will have a lifetime."

"Yes, we have a lifetime." Chu Zhaohui tightly hugged Zheng Yuming's hands, as if this could relieve his depression.

Daniu stood outside the gate of the palace courtyard, with his sleeves rolled up, and he yelled at Ma Ren with his hips crossed. "Brother Huang has something urgent to report to the two adults, how can we delay until tomorrow!"

After the king's city was safe, the family members of East Sima and South Sima returned to their respective mansions. After completing the task, Daniel went to report to Zheng Yuming. When he walked to the gate of the palace where Zheng Yuming was, he saw Huang Zhong was negotiating with Ma Ren. One wanted to go in. Seeing Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui, one of them stopped him and was not accommodating.Daniu and Huang Zhong had a good relationship, and immediately helped Huang Zhong to yell.

"The last general is just following orders." Ma Ren was expressionless, turning a blind eye to the saliva splashed on his face by the bull.

"Crack..." Seeing that Ma Ren couldn't say anything, Daniel got angry and pushed Ma Ren with one hand. He didn't want to push Ma Ren, but this made Daniel surprised. His strength was very strong. With half the strength, ordinary people can't stand up with such strength. Unexpectedly, the short man who is less than 170 cm in front of him remains motionless under his brute force.

"Daniu, don't be reckless." Daniel roared at the gate of the palace, making Huang Zhong anxious. He pulled Daniel's arm vigorously to prevent Daniel from pushing Ma Ren again.Huang Zhong knew Daniel very well, and he was afraid that Daniel's violent temper would really cause a fight with Ma Ren.

Ma Ren is the captain of the guards, and the guards next to him saw Daniel bullying their senior officer, and their expressions were eager to try. As long as the officer gave an order, they would immediately rush to beat Daniel.

"Daniu, what's the matter?" The commotion at the gate of the courtyard was broken up by Zheng Yuming's words, and he was standing in the corridor of the hall gate wearing a white robe.

"My lord! Huang Zhong has urgent information to report to the two lords!" Huang Zhong quickly walked out from behind Daniu, and bowed to Zheng Yuming in salute.

"Come in." There must be something important for Huang Zhong to force his way into the palace at this time. "Daniu, you come in too." Zheng Yuming turned around and saw that Daniel was still showing his chin to Ma Renyang, feeling amused.

"Daniu obeys! Daniel is standing in the courtyard to guard the adults." Daniel glanced at Ma Ren and continued: "No one will let them in without the permission of the adults."

After Daniu finished speaking, he found that Ma Ren and the guards had become a little embarrassed, and couldn't help venting their anger.

"Daniu, it is the bounden duty of soldiers to act according to orders, so don't have any objections to them." Zheng Yuming knew that Chu Chaohui had specifically confessed to Ma Ren, but Ma Ren was only strictly following the orders of the commander.

"I have no objection to Captain Ma, we are all good brothers!" Daniel scratched his head and giggled, his head couldn't remember grudges.

"My lords, the intelligence team at the stronghold captured a courier on the main road on the northern border. This courier had a secret letter stamped with a jade seal and a tiger's seal." Huang Zhong took out the secret letter from his arms and handed it to Zheng Yuming. "The subordinate opened the secret letter only to find out that it was a private letter written by the treacherous concubine to the king of Tang."

Zheng Yuming took the secret letter and glanced at it hastily, then handed it to Chu Chaohui beside him: "This woman will do everything for power."

"Huang Zhong, your intelligence department has done a good job!" Chu Zhaohui read the letter carefully and praised Huang Zhong. "The future work of the intelligence department will continue to be perfected. Sometimes the role of intelligence is equivalent to that of an army."

"Thank you, General, for your compliment!" When he first entered the hall, the dark-faced Chu Chaohui made him feel uneasy. Now, Chu Chaohui's affirmation of the intelligence department made Huang Zhong's heart flutter. People, the greater the contribution of the Intelligence Department, the more highly valued the person in charge will be in the future.

"Let's go down and rest for a while. The capital city will not be very stable during this period. The intelligence department should pay attention to all kinds of unusual things." Chu Chaohui assigned Huang Zhong a key task, asking Huang Zhong to pay attention to the movements of all forces in the capital city. Well, if Zheng Yuming didn't take the throne of King Wu, Chu Chaohui wouldn't feel at ease for a day.

"The humble post takes orders!" Huang Zhong bowed and said goodbye.

"Take this with you, and show it to the guards if you report something urgent." Zheng Yuming handed Huang Zhong a brand new RMB.

"Yes! Your Excellency!" Huang Zhong took the red RMB excitedly. He had stayed in the valley and knew what the red hard paper represented. Only Zheng and Chu's confidantes had this kind of certificate.

"Yu Ming, I'm calling the ministers of the royal court into the palace to discuss matters. I want to get rid of Tang Wang before the Spring Festival." Chu Zhaohui smiled as he looked at the secret letter in his hand, which revealed the relationship between Yi Ji and Tang Wang. All activities, mastering the dirty tricks of the king of Tang, and destroying the Tang country are justifiable.

"Continue to use troops? The severe winter is about to enter. Soldiers are fighting hard, and logistics supplies are also very difficult." Zheng Yuming is worried. It is already late October. At this time last year, the border of Wu State was already covered with ice and snow, but this year the northwest wind is not strong, and the temperature There has not been a sharp drop, and the temperature in the border areas has not yet dropped below zero. This year, the winter in Wu State is warmer than in previous years.

"Don't be afraid, we have a small bay to transport supplies, which is much more advantageous than the Tang army who has no logistical support at all." Chu Chaohui just wanted to take down the Tang army in Wu State before the temperature dropped sharply, and eliminate them. Supporting the Tang army means destroying the main military force of the Tang state. A country without the protection of the army can only be slaughtered by others.

"I hope this war won't last too long." Zheng Yuming had a headache. He hoped that there would be peace in the country of Wu, so that he would have time to build things up. After the economy developed, Zheng Yuming wanted to slowly cultivate the people's awareness of democracy. The economic development trend of the Chinese nationals themselves will trigger the reform of the slave feudal system.In Dacheng, Zheng Yuming has already lured most of the nobles to automatically abolish slavery with benefits.

Zheng Yuming's ideal is to enable the vast majority of citizens to live a good life, to enable school-age students to have the opportunity to read and write, and to gradually formulate a legal system that governs rights.

"I want to send troops this time in two ways. One way is to go to the border to encircle the Tang army with the troops led by Dong Sima and Nan Sima. The other way is to send cavalry to the north to pacify Beihou." Chu Chaohui wanted to solve all hidden dangers in one go. No matter how quickly the two wars were won, no matter how unwilling the nobles in the country of Wu were to regard Zheng Yuming as their king, they would not have the courage to oppose it.

"Fortunately, a lot of money was seized. Doctor Jiang and Yi Ji have stored a lot of food and grass in the capital city in order to defend the city for a long time." All the food and grass in the capital city fell into the hands of Zheng Yuming. Years of food and property simply can not support.

After Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui agreed to use troops against Tang and Beihou, they sent people to summon all the ministers and nobles of the royal court into the palace overnight, and those who were unwilling to come sent soldiers to invite them by force, so that a few timid nobles thought that the king There will be chaos again, and they will be the third batch of unlucky eggs to be slaughtered.

The palace where the discussion was held was the palace where the king of Wu met Zheng Yuming for the first time. The high platform and throne in the palace remained the same, and the three-foot-high green bronze tripod had no scent. The expressions of the royal court ministers and nobles waiting in the palace were different. Excited, some scared, some cautious, and some standing proudly.

The Taifu was the one with a proud expression, he stared coldly at Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui who came in side by side, if Zheng Yuming dared to sit on the throne of the king, he would slam his head to death under the wooden platform.

"Everyone, please take a seat." Zheng Yuming was very polite. Instead of going to the wooden platform, he had someone set up a desk in front of the wooden platform, and sat side by side with Chu Chaohui.

The way Zheng Yuming took his seat made the Tai Fu slightly startled, and after a while, he found that the colleagues on the left and right had already sat in their seats.

"Teacher, please take your seat. The matter I have to discuss with you tonight is very important. I have to send soldiers to invite you. If you offend the Tutor, please look at the Taifu Haihan." Chu Chaohui stood up and looked at him, who was still standing in the hall. The Tai Tuo bowed to him.

Tai Tuo looked at Chu Chaohui and said nothing, Chu Chaohui's face remained unchanged, still extremely sincere. "On this major event, the right decision can only be made with the participation of a backbone like the Taifu."

The Taifu slowly walked to the first place on the left. His power in the royal court was not as good as Dr. Zuo's, but his prestige had always been the highest, and he was ranked above Dr. Zuo in the royal court.

"The state of Wu cannot be left without a master for a day, and I invite you to inherit the throne as soon as possible." A nobleman thought that Zheng Yuming was summoned so late because he wanted to sit on the throne of the king early, and he wanted to be a supporting minister in his heart, so he hurriedly proposed in front of everyone.

Chu Chaohui's heart moved, he carefully observed the expressions of everyone in the hall, and was disappointed to find that some people headed by the Taifu still did not agree with Zheng Yuming's son status.

Zheng Yuming also felt the suspicious attitude of the Tai Tuo and other celebrities towards him. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then waved his hand to the nobles who suggested it. "The matter of the throne will be discussed after Wu Guo is settled down. Here is the secret letter written by Yi Ji, which was intercepted by the border soldiers at the main road. Please read the content." Zheng Yuming asked Daniu to send the secret letter to the ministers of the royal court and the nobles one by one for review. .

The Taifu was the first to look at it, and after scanning the content twice, his face turned pale, and he slumped on his seat.

The hussar general at his head finished watching, and immediately cursed: "The treacherous concubine has brought disaster to the country and the people, and there is more than one death to spare. If it weren't for the protection of the spirit of the former king in the sky of Wu Guode, so that the third son escaped from the hands of this poisonous woman, the state of Wu State would be destroyed here." The Hand of a Poison Woman."

"The Lord of the Tang Kingdom is despicable, shameless, and greedy. Half of the disasters in the Wu Kingdom are due to the greed of the Lord of the Tang Kingdom. Wei asked the son to send troops to attack this shameless king, and give the Wu Kingdom justice!" Wei Ren said at Chu Chaohui's instruction The next one proposed to send troops to fight against Tang Dynasty.

"That's right, this greedy king should be crusaded!" All the ministers and nobles agreed one after another.

Zheng Yuming glanced at the Taifu, and the Taifu expressed his approval of the plan to send troops.After the army of Ulsan captured the capital, many ministers and nobles of the royal court surrendered one after another. Only the celebrities in the royal palace, headed by the Taifu, closed their doors and said nothing.The Taifu did this because he did not recognize Zheng Yuming's son status.The Grand Tutor, like Wang Jie, is a celebrity and well-known among the vassal states. If Zheng Yuming can get the approval of the Grand Tutor, the throne is 100% orthodox.

"There is also news of Beihou's treason on his own initiative." Chu Chaohui looked around at the hall.

"My minister thinks that Beihou is entrusting himself with his own land, so it's not treason?" A minister said in a low voice.

"Why isn't it treason? The fiefdoms entrusted to the feudal lords by the great kings of the past dynasties are all the land of the Wu Kingdom, and the integrity of the Wu Kingdom cannot be divided by anyone. If the act of Beihou's self-reliance is not treason, the feudal lords everywhere have followed suit. Does the Wu Kingdom still exist?" Zheng Yuming snorted coldly.

One of King Wu's concubine was the first to stand up to oppose him. Two of Wu's three concubines had died during Yi Ji's seizure of the throne. This only surviving concubine was the first to surrender to Yi Ji. After breaking through, he was the first to show his favor to Ulsan. "That's right, when the country was in crisis, the Beihou didn't give up his troops to help, but instead took the opportunity to stand on his own. He has already lost his clan qualifications."

The Taifu looked up at the lord, lowered his eyelids and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

With Wu Wangshu's younger brother coming forward, the decision to send troops to Beihou was also made on the spot.In order to send troops before the cold wave came, three days later, Chu Chaohui and Zhou Cheng led two thousand soldiers in the valley and ten thousand tigers who surrendered to the northern border.

Wei Qing and Zeng You led an additional [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to attack Beihou. Wei Ren's [-] tigers stayed in the capital to protect Zheng Yuming. Apart from Chu Chaohui, Wei Ren was the second to hope that Zheng Yuming would be safe. people.

The two armies set off, and the capital suddenly seemed empty.After Yiji and Doctor Jiang's remnants were completely wiped out, the martial law was lifted in the royal capital, and the people began to go out of their homes to live a normal life.

One night in early November, when a cold current from the north enveloped the capital, the Tai Tuo went to the palace alone to ask Zheng Yuming to see him.
